T/N: Idiom: to show warm feelings but meet with cold rebuke 热脸贴冷屁股- to be snubbed despite showing good intentions
He likes the car just by the looks of it. Despite his family being loaded, how can he justify taking such an expensive car home?
He doesn"t wait to answer his own question. Lila, the showroom model, flashes him a coquettish smile. "The Volkswagen Group president asked me to give this gift to you, young master. Your fiancée shouldn"t know about this, okay?"
Lila flashes An Chuxia a smile through clenched teeth despite not speaking to her.
Han Qilu glances slightly at Lila. She loosens her grip from him after making a "please" gesture. He walks past An Chuxia and gets into the vehicle.
The sports car flies out in an instant, and Lila paces. Standing next to Chuxia, she says, "My name is Lila."
The self-introduction is both pointless and boring! All the emotions are behind her eyes. She glances at her by turning her head slightly. She is almost as tall as Qilu. "An Chuxia."
Her response sounded like it came from script. Shouldn"t she"s make fun of her by showing warm feelings while meeting her cold rebuke? She can tell from a glace she used to be Han Qilu"s woman, that beast. But… doesn"t this beast also love Mankuai deeply? So… what about this woman? Does he come over just to play with her?
She"s repulsed at the very thought. He may make her heart race, but isn"t he shameful?
The look of disdain in Chuxia"s eyes makes Lila angry. Not even her beautiful makeup can hide it. Despite her displeasure, the fox spreads her glossy lips and intentionally stands next to An Chuxia, elbow to elbow.
Lila says with a distinct voice, "Han Qilu saved me when I was surrounded by a bunch of hoodlums… ah! Yes! Do you know the Milestone Hotel presidential suite? I lived there for a month, thanks to the young master. I am successful today because of him."
Raising her eyebrow a bit, An Chuxia says with a faint smile, "Hmm." The perfunctory hum is all she can do so what she says won"t be misconstrued as jealousy. After all, she has nothing to say to her.
An Chuxia"s indifference frustrates Lila. She suddenly raises her voice as she squints at her. "Young master Qilu is mine!"
"Lila!" A man"s voice booms. An Chuxia recalls the voice belonging to the man who pulled the black cloth from the car. As he approaches, she realizes he"s not a n.o.body.
"I am sorry our model is causing you trouble." He approaches An Chuxia and apologizes.
Although his words seem sincere, his tone and expression are devoid of apology. This man also fears Lila and thinks it would be advantageous to him if she was with Qilu. Does he think she is gullible?
What a joke!
She narrows her look at them. She knows they look down on her just because she didn"t change out of her clothes. Who would think highly of someone whose hair is a mess and is wearing such a monotonous one-piece dress?
CHAPTER 202Does He Care?Translated, edited, and proofread by newbienoona
He raises his eyes and looks at her profoundly. "Lamborghini Reventon… If I were to hedge a bet, are you the Volkswagen Group"s president? Today isn"t so special that you, the president, should be over to help us?"
His complexion changes after she says such words after an initial meeting. She is a peculiar girl for knowing the car by name. He hides his surprise in his heart. He nods toward her. "We are ready to make a deal with Han. Please do not pay attention to the Lamborghini. I am Ding Ning, the a.s.sistant to the president of Volkswagen Group. What kind of gifts would you want us to send over to your house, little madame?"
The corner of his mouth tilts upwards. Ding Ning"s manner changes from disdain to respect, then awe. "As far as you"re concerned, a.s.sistant Ding, no gifts are needed."
As soon as An Chuxia rejects Ding Ning"s offer, Lila"s face turned stormy. She was about to attack, but Ding Ning holds her back. He puts his foot down. Lila mocks, "Little madame? You really are funny… ."
"Lila!" Ding Ning frowns at the growling Lila. He turns and apologizes to Chuxia. "She"s not sensible. I hope you are more understanding, little madame."
At this time, she won"t be amenable. Humorous? As her mouth hooks, she reveals a ghost-like smile. She raises her hand and delivers a slap on Lila"s face. "Your superior has spoken, subordinate. How could you not be respectful? Do you need me to teach you better manners?"
Ding Ning isn"t surprised with An Chuxia"s behavior. He can tell from her smile she shares similarities with Han Qilu. She may look ordinary but she is full of charm. Under scrutiny, her facial features are standard and compact. Despite having naked lips, she can actually produce the most primitive**… .
"You dare hit me?" Lila screeches, her face, burning and swollen. Her hand is unexpectedly heavy!
An Chuxia sighs. The script is so clichéd. It"s usually the bad person who gets such lines. It"s evil to the point of being extreme, but when Lila prepared to counter-attack… .
The sound of breaks catches their attention. Han Qilu suddenly appears, stopping right in front of them. He realizes something isn"t quite right. With thin lips, he asks, "What happened?"
Lila looks at him. Her clutched hands loosen immediately, her tears spew like a fountain. She takes a few steps toward Han Qilu, crying out loudly, "Young master Qilu, that woman, she hit me! Obviously, I didn"t do anything, but she reaches out and slaps me in the face. It hurts… ."
He looks down on Lila, he shows indifference and puts distance between them. His eyes look straight to Chuxia. His voice is stiff. "What"s the matter?"
She doesn"t want to admit she hit the witch, but she thinks it would be b.i.t.c.hy for her to ask why he should care. h.e.l.l, right before getting into the car, he stated that "both of us are mutually repugnant".
Her heart swells joyously. Does Han Qilu care a little bit about her? She must give their relationship a chance!
