Chapter 46: Chapter 46 We Have All the Time
Lu Heting looked funny in this way.
Yet he seemed calm and sincere.
Su Bei, in turn, pursed her lips to conceal a smile but couldn’t help feeling a little disappointed as she didn’t get to see the picture in his wallet.
Nevertheless, she wasn’t in a hurry. There was still time.
She thought it was safer to find out the truth on her own than to listen to what he had to say anyway.
“Good night, Mr. Lu.” Standing up, Su Bei walked towards the master bedroom.
After a long time, Lu Heting said in a low voice, “Good night.”
The master bedroom door was closed. Although the girl’s slim figure and bright smile were nowhere near his sight anymore, he could still conjure up her image before his eyes.
Compared to the eighteen-year-old unripe girl, she had grown more charming with age, like a green fruit that had become sweeter and unforgettable as it matured.
‘Su Bei, we have all the time in the world, ‘ he thought to himself.
The next morning, Su Bei got ready to go to the company.
Since she wanted to attend the Orisa International Show, she had a lot of things to prepare.
Lu Heting offered to drive her to the company. “My car was parked not far from here.”
Su Bei didn’t refuse him.
It wasn’t until she got into the parking lot that she remembered that Lu Heting was driving Lu Weijian’s car—a discreet but luxury Bentley.
“Heting, can you drop me off somewhere near the company instead? This car is too dazzling.”
“Then I’ll drive another car next time,” he replied.
“No, thanks. You should focus on doing your job as Mr. Weijian requires. You can’t just change cars for me, can you?”
Realizing that he couldn’t reason with that, Lu Heting kept silent.
After all, he didn’t want to blow his cover now and risk scaring her off. He wouldn’t be able to bear it if she left again for another five years.
Once they got to a place near Qian Yu Entertainment Company, Lu Heting stopped the car and told her, “I’ll pick you up this afternoon.”
“No, I don’t want to bother you. I’ll take a taxi.”
“Su Bei, legally, I’m your husband, okay?” Lowering his head, Lu Heting looked into her eyes gently.
With a smile, Su Bei agreed, “Okay, but as long as this doesn’t get in the way of your work. I’ll call you this afternoon.”
After walking into the company, Su Bei went straight to Qiu Minxuan’s office.
She knocked on the door and quickly someone came to open it. To her surprise, it wasn’t Qiu Minxuan, but Du Luo.
For a moment, Su Bei froze, but after a while, her eyes returned to their natural brightness.
His gentle face was still as handsome as years ago. In his light-colored casual clothes, he had retained his youthfulness, which Su Bei used to like a lot.
However, he was no longer a young boy. Now that he was more mature, he even let a beard grow on his chin.
Smiling at her, he said, “Come in, Su Bei.”
She took a deep breath and stepped inside. “I have an appointment with Minxuan now. Do you know where she is?”
“Su Bei, I’d like to talk to you first,” Duo Luo said. “Minxuan will be here soon.”
“I don’t think we have anything to talk about,” Su Bei answered nonchalantly. Since he chose to trust Su Huixian, she had taken him out of her heart.
In the last five years, Da Bao’s existence had relieved many of her past wounds, but once trust was broken, she didn’t take it lightly.
Du Luo put a blank check on the table and pushed it towards her. “Su Bei, this is for you.”
“What is this supposed to mean?” Su Bei raised her eyes, looking at him coldly.
