Chapter 1360: Who asked you to be handsome!
Lin Chen: “???”
Where did this come from?
Lin Chen had never heard Lin Ran interact with Lu Yunfan in private…
Lu Yunfan rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand. “Just now, I happened to run into Lin Ran in the elevator on the ground floor. I wanted to say h.e.l.lo to her, but she quickly left with her colleagues after she saw me. It felt like she was avoiding me, not wanting to talk to me…”
Lu Yunfan had always had a fragile heart when it came to Lin Chen’s family. It was mainly because she was too concerned that they wouldn’t like her, and she couldn’t control her heart.
Lin Chen couldn’t help but chuckle upon hearing this…
“Lin Ran is currently working at the lowest position at the company. She doesn’t want others to find out that she’s the daughter of the Lin family. She specifically asked my secretary and me not to greet her when we see her. You’re overthinking. The reason she didn’t greet you is that she didn’t want you to blow her cover!”
Was that really the case?
Wasn’t Lin Chen just trying to comfort her?
No, Lin Chen wasn’t the kind of person who would comfort her…
Seeing Lu Yunfan fall into all sorts of self-doubt, Lin Chen got up and picked up the suit jacket on the back of his chair. “I’m going to eat. Are you coming with me?”
Lu Yunfan quickly nodded. “Go, go, go…”
Lin Chen brought Lu Yunfan to Lotus Pond Under Moonlight.
Lu Yunfan was curious about why Lin Ran wanted to start at the bottom of the company’s ladder and kept asking Lin Chen questions.
Lin Chen was annoyed by the question and put down his chopsticks. “Do you want me to make a call and get Lin Ran to come over and explain it to you?”
“No… no need! I was just asking…” Lu Yunfan quickly stopped him. She bit her chopsticks and looked at the elegant Lin Chen opposite her, feeling a little sad.
She remembered what Lin Chen had said before; he didn’t like to talk while eating.
But she couldn’t help but want to talk to Lin Chen…
This was probably one of the reasons why Lin Chen didn’t like her.
The sulky Lu Yunfan lowered her head and used her fork to grab the exquisite food in front of her.
After having a meal with Lu Yunfan, Lin Chen was now accustomed to her endless chatter. Now that Lu Yunfan had suddenly become quiet, Lin Chen couldn’t help but feel a bit strange. He wiped his mouth with a napkin and stared at Lu Yunfan when the waiter removed the dishes on the table.
Their gazes met. Lu Yunfan seemed to understand Lin Chen’s questioning eyes, and she couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh.
Lin Chen narrowed his eyes and smiled…
“Are you looking at me like that because you’ve become familiar with me chattering non-stop and making a fuss during the meal? And now that I’ve become quiet, you’re not used to it?” Lu Yunfan’s cheerful voice carried a hint of pride for being able to see through Lin Chen’s thoughts.
Lin Chen didn’t immediately reply. He leisurely placed the napkin aside before saying in a low voice, “So you know that you’re a noisy eater…”
Lu Yunfan was speechless.
When did she say that she was noisy when she was eating?
Alright, alright, who asked you to be so handsome!
Fine! I was a noisy eater!
Lu Yunfan smiled at Lin Chen. Now that she knew Lin Chen was already accustomed to her constant chatting, she didn’t remain quiet anymore. “Brother Lin Chen, do you think… Lin Ran will hate me?”
“Why would she hate you?” Lin Chen didn’t even look up. “Because you’re noisy? Well, that’s very likely…”
Lu Yunfan was speechless.
He was handsome, but he didn’t know how to speak!
“I’m just afraid that this future sister-in-law will hate me…” Lu Yunfan lowered her head.
“Future sister-in-law?” Lin Chen picked up the lemon water beside him and took a sip. He looked at Lu Yunfan, who had raised her head with a hint of a smile on her face. “You’re quite bold with your thoughts about the future.”
Lu Yunfan’s ears turned red from Lin Chen’s words, but what could she do? She had already said it, so she had to go all out. “I’m determined to be your wife. Since I’ll become your wife in the future, then… it would make Lin Ran be my future sister-in-law naturally!”
There was nothing wrong with her words.
Lin Chen nodded. “You also have a bold ambition.”
“You need to be bold to get what you want!” Lu Yunfan was full of confidence. “One day, Brother Lin Chen will definitely accept me.”
Lin Chen looked at the young lady opposite him, who still had an innocent and childish look on her face. He smiled and thought nothing of it. “One day, you’ll realize that there are a lot of handsome men by your side. You’ll regret wasting your most beautiful years chasing a man who isn’t suitable for you and is older than you.”
“Nonsense!” Lu Yunfan argued with Lin Chen. “I’m already in my twenties, no longer a 17 or 18-year-old girl. Even if my thinking is a little childish, I can still be responsible for my feelings!”
Seeing that Lin Chen didn’t say anything, Lu Yunfan continued, “Moreover, I don’t feel that there’s a huge age gap between us. Our Xinxin and Brother Tang Xi’s age gap is huge too, but look at them now. They’re both married and have children.”
“I’m not a cradle robber like Tang Xi…” Lin Chen didn’t even raise his head as he brought the food to his lips.
“How am I a child? Does your definition of a child include those in the twenties?”
Lin Chen looked up. “I’m talking about wisdom.”
Lu Yunfan was speechless.
Lu Yunfan felt as if there was an arrow in her heart.
Sob, Brother Lin Chen despised her mentality.
However, everyone clearly said that Lu Yunfan’s innocent personality was a good thing. She was very easy for everyone to get along with!
“Then, Brother Lin Chen, would you like a cunning wife instead?” Lu Yunfan asked. “The kind that sleeps on the same bed with you but is scheming something by your pillow?”
“Scheming wife?” Lin Chen was amused by Lu Yunfan’s words. “Have you seen too many novels and dramas?”
Lu Yunfan tightened her grip on the fork in her hand. “Brother Lin Chen, let me tell you, you need to marry someone as pure-hearted as me. You’re the only person in my heart, and I’ll never scheme against you. I’m a person who takes you into account for everything!”
Seeing that Lin Chen wasn’t saying anything, Lu Yunfan tried even harder to promote herself. “Moreover, my family background isn’t bad either. We can be said to be a compatible match. We’re both adorable and cute. Most importantly, you can tell what I’m thinking at a glance. You won’t have to worry that I’ll do something bad to you. Look… where else would you find such a suitable wife like me?”
Lin Chen lowered his head and ate the delicacies before him…
Lu Yunfan pursed her lips. “Think about it. There’s really no wife more suitable for you than I am! Other than the possibility that I might get into trouble and need your help to clean up the mess, I can a.s.sure you that I won’t get into big trouble! People who often get into trouble… definitely won’t get into excessive trouble, nor will they find it right to get into huge trouble. Brother Lin Chen, please consider it!”
Lin Chen knew that Lu Yunfan indeed came from a well-to-do family. A simple wife… was indeed in line with his previous standards of getting married.
However, Lin Chen’s plan in the past was to marry one and then have her be a wife in-name
But Lu Yunfan clearly had feelings for Lin Chen. She would definitely need more from him when it came to her emotions.
