Surprise! Love-brained Mr. Li has made his ex-girlfriend his girlfriend

Chapter 172 If You Want, Let's Get Married

Lu Xingchen went to get off work and came home as normal, but when he was about to get off work today, he suddenly heard someone in the office shouting, "Hello, President Li."

Her back stiffened slightly, but she continued to stare at the monitor in front of her.

Du Xinrui asked, "Is Mr. Li looking for Mr. Zhuang? He went to Mr. Lei's place."

Li Zhen looked at Lu Xingchen who was working hard and replied, "I'll wait for him here."

Du Xinrui: "I'll give him a call."

"No, you guys continue working and don't worry about me." He said without entering Zhuang Su's office, and sat down in the empty seat next to Lu Xingchen.

The office, which was originally full of laughter and chatter, became unusually quiet because of him. Everyone went from looking at each other in confusion to sitting upright, completely unable to guess what the big boss was up to.

In the office, where the only sounds were the keyboard and the much-reduced sounds of work phones, a cell phone suddenly rang, followed by Li Zhen's deep, magnetic voice.

"I'm in Zhuangsu's office. I know. Take it down for me."

When the female office employees heard this voice, they felt nervous and excited. Is this a benefit that small employees like them can have?

A few minutes later, Luo Shi came down with documents. He was going to rush straight to Zhuang Su's office, but his boss' presence was too strong. He saw him sitting next to Lu Xingchen at a glance and couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

Do you have to be so clingy?

Luo Shi came to Li Zhen amid the polite greetings of others and handed him the two documents in his hand. "The top one needs your signature. Please take a look at the rest first."

When Li Zhen opened the first document to read it, Luo Shi raised his eyes to look at Lu Xingchen next to him. She was working on the computer as if no one was around. No one could tell that she was a couple with the big boss who was accompanying her on the shift.

I have to say that this woman's mental strength is really strong.

In fact, Li Zhen and Luo Shi didn’t know that Lu Xingchen also sent a WeChat message to Du Xinrui.

Team leader, please send a message to Mr. Zhuang, in case Mr. Li really has something urgent.

So, just as Li Zhen finished signing, Zhuang Su came in from outside: "Mr. Li, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Li Zhen couldn't say no, so he responded with a blank "yes" and handed the document back to Luo Shi.

Standing in the aisle, Zhuang Su said calmly, "Let's go to the office and talk."

Li Zhen stood up but didn't move immediately, fearing that Lu Xingchen would leave before he came out. He turned to look at Lu Xingchen and said, "Xingchen, please make me a cup of coffee and bring it in."

Lu Xingchen turned his head and replied politely: "Okay, Mr. Li."

At this time, Li Zhen put the box of things he had just brought in on her desk, and then walked towards Zhuang Su.

Although she felt very uncomfortable, Lu Xingchen still looked at the box. It was a scar removing ointment. She couldn't help but look at her hands again, then opened the drawer and put the medicine in.

It wasn't that she wanted to collect it, but she was afraid that her colleagues who saw his actions would come and investigate.

Then she picked up her phone and sent another WeChat message to Du Xinrui: I have something to do and need to go back early today.

Du Xinrui had no problem with this request and just pointed to Zhuang Su's office to remind her about the coffee.

Lu Xingchen pointed at Wen Qing.

Du Xinrui gave her an "OK" gesture without any suspicion. Anyone could make the coffee, and Wen Qing was the one who entertained the normal guests, so there shouldn't be any problems.

Lu Xingchen tidied up the things on the table, picked up his bag and came to ask Wen Qing for help. Wen Qing went to do it immediately, fearing that she would be late and neglect the boss.

There are about 20 people in the architect's office, most of them are men, and those who can enter the future team have high qualifications. More than half of those with this qualification are married, and the rest are older young people. Wen Qing and Lu Xingchen are the youngest in the entire office.

Therefore, most people are more interested in watching the show than in coveting the big boss's talents.

As soon as Lu Xingchen opened the door, his colleagues in the office started whispering.

"The big boss went to Xingchen as soon as he came in. I thought he was just here to see Xingchen!"

"That's right. I just saw him putting something on Xingchen's table. I was thinking about giving it a good knock, but I didn't expect that the boss went to Mr. Zhuang's place and Xingchen just left."

Now that everyone has left, we can only continue to work.

Only the big boss felt uneasy when he saw Wen Qing coming in with two cups of coffee. If Zhuang Su hadn't been talking about serious business, he would have chased after her immediately. However, he also guessed what was going on. Sure enough, when he came out of Zhuang Su's office, Lu Xingchen was no longer at his workstation.

Lu Xingchen didn't even go back to her rental house. She went directly to the store to buy two sets of clothes and planned to go directly to her mother's place. She happened to pass by a barber shop and remembered what the old Chinese doctor said, so she turned around and walked into the barber shop.

Li Zhen sent messages and called Lu Xingchen in the car, but Lu Xingchen didn't answer. Then he took out his mobile phone and typed a few hundred words of apology essay, but in the end he found that the words were full of far-fetched arguments.

As happy as he was last night, he regretted it so much today. He wanted to go to Lu Xingchen's place to find someone, but he was afraid that if he showed up there again, it would make her even more disgusted. He was also afraid that if he did nothing, she would think he was even more irresponsible.

After thinking it over, he deleted the essay and only sent a short WeChat message to Lu Xingchen.

After Lu Xingchen returned to Xu Fanghua's place, she worked overtime in her room after dinner. Li Zhen kept contacting her, so she had to turn her phone to silent mode and put it on the table.

She didn't pick up her phone until before going to bed. To her surprise, there was only one unread message on WeChat. She reached out and clicked it.

Xingyao: If you want, let's get married.

Lu Xingchen opened his mouth slightly in shock, then pursed his lips and frowned after a moment, then replied to Li Zhen:

Does marriage indicate trust?

Or do you think my price is right?

You don't mind if I don't like it?

After the three messages were sent, Li Zhen’s video call came almost immediately. Lu Xingchen frowned. He still wanted to video chat. Is this giving him face?

Lu Xingchen didn't want to answer the call, but she felt that this was not a solution, so she switched the video call to voice.

When Li Zhen saw that she answered, he was so excited as if he had been pardoned that he called out, "Xingchen..."

"Mr. Li, I'm not answering this call because of what you said, but because I feel that some things can't be left hanging..."

"I'm sorry, Xingchen." Afraid that she would start talking about breaking up, Li Zhen interrupted her and said, "I know that what I did this time cannot be solved by just apologizing, but..."

"But you still want me to give you a chance, right?" Lu Xingchen interrupted him mercilessly.

Li Zhen had nothing to refute, because after all, he really had that one purpose, "What if I asked you not to rush to take back the opportunity you gave me? What happened last night..."

"I slept with you without asking for your opinion. Maybe you are not willing to know the truth, so let's regard what happened last night as repayment. Although it may not be enough, let's cut our losses in time."
