Chapter 224 Tonight, I will prove it to you
Although she didn't say a word, the weight of her thoughts from these past two days was etched on her face. He didn't ask, knowing she would open up when she was ready."I..." Jian Tong stood before K...Far away at Erhai Lake, there is a peaceful scene.
Apart from the suddenly appearing Lu Mingchu, who always seemed to stir up trouble and turn the otherwise peaceful homestay upside down.
He said he wanted to go swimming.
Zhaozhao's eyes were almost popping out: "This lake can't be swum in."
Lu Ming was insistent on going for a swim: "I'm a good swimmer, and besides, this lake water is crystal clear. I won't go far, just by the edge of the front yard."
"But this lake really can't…"
Before he could finish his words, Zhao Zhao stared in astonishment as the handsome man, who was known for his impulsiveness, sauntered away with a casual wave of his hand and said, "I'm going to change my clothes."
Li Ming had just left, and Zhao Zhao turned her head to look at the woman beside her, feeling completely lost.
"Boss... What's with Mingchu Big Brother's head I just can't figure out what he's saying!"
The woman curled her lip and said, "You'd better go and see how many days are left on his reserved room time. Hurry up and sell that room online."
"Boss!" Zhao Zhao seemed to have discovered a new continent, covering her mouth with one hand and pointing at the woman on the lounge chair with the other: "Oh~ I understand! Boss, you want to make Brother Chuming leave tomorrow, right"
The woman rolled her eyes and said, "You just noticed"
Zhao Zhao was just about to speak when a glimpse out of the corner of her eye caught something. She froze, standing there like a statue for a moment, staring dumbfounded at the person walking towards her.
"Zhao Zhao Your mouth is so wide..." The woman's words cut off abruptly. This time, she was also dumbfounded...
Lu Ming chuckled, a self-satisfied air about him as he flaunted his physique. "Do you like it" He suddenly crouched down, leaning in close to the woman's ear and whispering seductively:
You made a profit, I don't usually show her this kind of thing.
For quite a while...
The woman put away her stunned expression, “Are you...cold”
Lu Ming was stunned for a moment…… “You, don’t you have anything else to say”
He suspected she wasn't a woman.
"Boss...take another look, how am I"
At this moment, Lu Mingchu is just like the women in ancient courts who fawned and flattered for favor.
The woman remained silent, but her gesture clearly pointed to Lu Mingchu instead.
"Mingchu Big Brother! You have eight abdominal muscles! Good, good, good... Sexy!" After finishing, a warm stream of nosebleed slowly flowed out of her nostrils, "No, no, Mingchu Big Brother, you quickly put your clothes on."
"Really! Really, you can't swim in that lake~"
She strongly suspected that Brother Mingchu was deliberately doing this, intentionally wearing such revealing clothes, showing off his abs, and swaggering in front of the boss.
As a young girl, Zhao Zhao had watched countless Korean dramas, Japanese dramas, and Taiwanese romantic comedies. Her mind was filled with pink bubbles of fantasy.
Following Lu Mingchu came his assistant, a burly man who stood in the corner of the hall, blending into the background. Even on that face of an iron man, a blush of shame could be seen.
Turning away, unwilling to look upon his noble master any longer.
He was embarrassed for his master.
What kind of cheesy pick-up lines are these They're straight out of the 1980s! Where on earth did his grandpa learn this stuff
Lu Mingchu intentionally leaned closer to the woman's face, a hint of an ambiguous smile flashed in her eyes, and then she spoke softly:
"Mr. Lu, you think your figure is something to be proud of"
"Could it be that my figure isn't good enough" Is there nothing better than that bastard Shen Xiuqin
"Well, this...with Mr. Lu's physique, it's too ordinary. I've seen several just like him."
Knock knock!
Lu Mingchu felt as if he had been struck by a stone in his heart, "Have you seen several"
His focus is on "Have you seen this"
But on the women's side, the focus shifted to… "Yeah, quite a few."
"I don't believe it."
I don't believe "You've seen" several.
"If Mr. Lu doesn't believe me, I'll prove it to you tonight, Mr. Lu. Do you dare to bet with me"
"Evening You Proof Show me" Each word that left his lips carried a little more suspicion.
"What Mr. Lu, are you afraid"
"Who said I wouldn't" She just proved it to him at night... How did she prove it
After a moment's hesitation, he confirmed it again. He looked suspiciously at the woman in front of him: "Tonight Are you sure"
Yes, at night.
Lu Ming's heart pounded like a drum.
Last night proved, and it's all about the figure... she wouldn't want to...
"Alright, I'll bet you."
"Uh-huh."
Hold on, what are the stakes
"What are the benefits if I win"
A calculating smile flashed in his eyes. He was a businessman, after all, and businessmen only followed where the profit lay.
The woman lowered her eyelids, concealing the smile in the depths of her clear eyes.
"Okay, you decide."
When he raised his eyes again, the smile had just faded, but in the sunlight, it reflected a strange kind of beauty.
Lu Ming's heart skipped a beat, his throat moving slightly:
"You said it, I decide, whatever I decide, you agree If I win, I can ask for any condition"
"Mumbling."
Lu Ming couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. This girl actually found him fussy, unaware that she had fallen into a den of wolves, ha.
He was so confident in his own physique, he simply didn't believe she could prove him wrong about it being average.
Lu Ming initially felt like the Big Bad Wolf in Little Red Riding Hood, with great potential to excel in this industry.
The woman nodded, her eyes downcast.
……
Night gradually deepened.
This afternoon, Lu Mingchu went over every possibility in his mind. He imagined countless scenes, her shy and bashful appearance, her alluring and enchanting seduction... That's right!
Lu Ming was initially ashamed in his own fantasies...
Knock, knock, knock. The door sounded as he was coming out of the bathroom.
Before opening the door, she deliberately loosened the collar of her robe and then pulled it open.
"How is it you Where's your boss"
Zhao Zhao never expected to see such a thing, her eyes almost popping out. She suddenly covered her nose and said, "Ming Chu gege, you better put on your clothes quickly, the boss is waiting for you in the parking lot."
"Parking lot Why go to the parking lot... Hey, Zhao Zhao, don't leave! Explain..."
"No, no, Mingchu Big Brother, I have low blood sugar. Anyway, I'm leaving first, you hurry down here. If you're late, the boss will be angry." Zhazha covered her nose and ran away in a flash.
Lu Ming was initially confused. With a hint of suspicion, he changed his shirt casually and stepped out of the room.
The homestay has a small parking lot, which is actually just an empty space with cement poured on it. Newly purchased vehicles are parked here.
Lu Ming saw from afar that the woman was already waiting by the car.
A few steps forward, “Aren’t you going to prove it to me tonight”
"Yeah, isn't that just taking you to prove it"
Lu Ming narrowed his eyes... "Take me to prove it Take me where"
"The Dali Ancient City," she said, getting into the car first. "Mr. Lu, do you still remember the way"
Lu Ming remained calm and got into the car, wanting to see what she would do next.
But no matter how he tested the waters along the way, she didn't reveal anything.
Not until they reached Dali Ancient City did Lu Ming follow her closely, walking into the bar street inside the ancient city.
On either side of the main road, there are a dozen or so lively bars, each with its own unique style. Some sing folk songs, while others sing pop music.
There are male and female singers.
She didn't go inside, though. Instead, she turned and walked into a narrow alleyway, then entered the only bar in the alley.
"What brings you here" Lu Mingchu looked at the several male dancers on the stage in the middle of the bar, their bodies swaying to the rhythm. Around them, countless women screamed and stuffed money into the men's underwear... A bad feeling suddenly crept into his heart. "I have something to do, I'm leaving first." Saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.
But he was seized by an arm:
"Mr. Lu, gambling involves stakes. You set the terms if you win, and I suppose if I win, I get to set the terms too"
Mr. Lu, if you're leaving now, that means you concede defeat. Then please check out of Yijiu Residence, Mr. Lu. As for your losses, I will compensate you.
She wasn't stupid. The look Lu Ming gave her, she knew it too well... familiar to the point of... pain!
Whatever his purpose, whether sincere or playing games.
If it's a game, she can't afford to play. She'll send him packing, that's her hedgehog principle.
If it's true love, then... she shouldn't pretend to be unaware and see him off. It would be good for him.
In short, withholding hope was her gentle way towards this chance encounter with a stranger.
The lights in the bar were too dim for her to see the coldness on the man beside her face and the darkness in his eyes at that moment.
Without him speaking, she said, "Mr. Lu, let's go."
She was about to leave when someone pulled her back, a voice devoid of emotion reaching her ears: "There was never any wager from the start. You wanted me gone all along, didn't you"
Unable to hear the emotion in her voice, she shivered involuntarily: "This... is best for you."
She uttered a disjointed sentence, but the man beside her smiled, leaning in with a warm breath suddenly brushing against her ear:
"I bet."
He whispered two words in her ear, calmly. The woman felt the arm that had been gripping her suddenly loosen, and the heat beside her dissipated. Then she heard screams all around her.
She instinctively turned to look, the figure on stage...she froze.
She just wanted to scare him, to frighten him away, she didn't expect that the man they had just met would actually put aside his dignity and walk over.
He was the darling under the spotlight, instantly capturing everyone's attention.
One button at a time, that most ordinary shirt button, in his fingertips, became the culprit driving countless women on this stage to scream madly... so bewitching.
As the buttons of his shirt came undone, one by one, on his fingertips, as the shirt unbuttoned, the women in the audience screamed: "Take it off! Take it off! Take it off!"
and even throwing money onto the stage.
The man on stage, with simple movements, took off his white shirt. In an instant, screams almost drowned out the music.
And that man, through the screaming audience, his gaze in this dim environment, precisely found that woman.
She stood straight there, under the man's gaze on the stage. An inexplicable... pang of long-forgotten pain, a rush of familiarity.
She was below the stage, her lips slightly pale, but under the lights, it was unclear. She opened her mouth and said to the person on stage: "Enough."
The music and screams around her were so loud that it seemed as if she was speaking only to the people on stage, or perhaps only to herself. Her words couldn't possibly reach the man on stage at all.
But the man, after moving his lips and saying "Enough," suddenly smirked with a hint of irony. He didn't stop his actions; instead, his hand moved towards the belt of his suit trousers.
"Ah! Take it off! Take it off! Take it off!"
Under countless passionate gazes, the man jerked his belt... unwillingness in Xi Chen's eyes, and he glared fiercely at Lu Mingchu, unwillingly putting his hand in his pocket, looking towards the Erhai Lake shore not far away, with a bit of temper, he said: "D...
