Chapter 173 Future Plans
Chapter 173 Future Plans
Thinking of what he just said, Lu Jinyu felt a little embarrassed.
She smiled and changed the subject: "It's just a small episode, don't let it affect your mood, eat some fruit!"
As she spoke, she reached out for the fruit plate on the coffee table, intending to get some fruit for Shang Yonglin, but he grabbed her instead.
Lu Jinyu looked at Shang Yonglin in surprise, and Shang Yonglin was looking at her with tenderness in his eyes, an expression she had never seen before.
"What's wrong?"
"Can what you just said become true?"
Shang Yonglin said softly, and Lu Jinyu's heart began to pound.
She understood what this sentence meant, but she was not sure, so she stared at him blankly.
In fact, Shang Yonglin was also very nervous. He took a deep breath, turned his body towards Lu Jinyu, and then said solemnly.
"Please be my girlfriend, a real girlfriend."
Lu Jinyu was so shocked that she didn't know how to answer. She was happy in her heart, but more confused.
Seeing that she didn't reply for a long time, Shang Yonglin asked anxiously: "You don't want to?"
"No!" Lu Jinyu replied immediately.
"Then...?" Shang Yonglin asked.
Lu Jinyu took a breath, calmed down a little and said, "I'm just a little curious, do you really like me? Why do you like me? When did you start liking me?"
Because I was so curious, I couldn't help but ask all at once.
After hearing her question, Shang Yonglin couldn't help but laugh.
He seldom smiles, but actually he looks very handsome when he smiles. Even Lu Jinyu was distracted when he saw him.
Shang Yonglin took a deep breath, thought for a while and said, "At first I just didn't hate you. After all, there are too many women I hate. When I found that you were really working hard and studying hard, I developed a good impression of you. But at that time it was just admiration. I guess I was gradually attracted to you as we got along later. I don't know if I really like you, and to what extent, but..."
At this point, Shang Yonglin's expression became more serious.
"But I don't want to miss it. I can't imagine what my girlfriend would be like, but if it were you, I think I'd be very happy."
After hearing his words, Lu Jinyu was deeply moved.
Seeing someone you like makes you happy, and this is a manifestation of being in love.
A smile appeared on Lu Jinyu's face, but it disappeared in a flash, and he looked away slightly.
She had many concerns and didn't know whether she should agree to him.
Shang Yonglin guessed what she was thinking and said, "If there are any problems, we can face them together and solve them together, just like at work. I believe we will be good partners in life as well."
He held Lu Jinyu's hand tightly, and the warmth from his palm seemed to convey his confidence.
Lu Jinyu was very touched.
People should not stop moving forward and give up the happiness in front of them because they are afraid of future difficulties.
A smile appeared on her face again. She leaned her upper body towards Shang Yonglin and put her arms around his neck.
"Ah."
Although it was a very soft sound, Shang Yonglin still heard it.
He then smiled with relief, hugged Lu Jinyu back with his arms, and sniffed the fragrance of her hair.
.
Phew—bang!
Lu Jinyu was startled by the sudden sound of fireworks behind her.
Letting go of Shang Yonglin and looking back, he found that it was the sound effects played by Mianmian on her mobile phone.
"Hehe!" Mianmian wrinkled her nose and smiled happily, "Congratulations on the lovers finally getting married!"
Shang Yonglin found it funny and said cooperatively, "Thank you Mianmian."
Lu Jinyu smiled helplessly and thought: This little adult really knows everything.
Then he also said: "Well, thank you Mianmian."
But her nervous mood finally relaxed.
"Okay, I won't bother you anymore!" After saying that, Mianmian went back to the house.
Lu Jinyu looked at Shang Yonglin and smiled, "Excuse me."
"No, Mianmian is very cute."
Although he said Mianmian, Shang Yonglin's eyes looked as if he was saying that Lu Jinyu was cute.
Lu Jinyu couldn't help but feel his face getting hot.
Although this is not my first time in love, I have just changed my status and I am not used to it yet.
Shang Yonglin knew that she was shy, so he didn't continue what he was saying, although he did want to say that Lu Jinyu was also very cute.
"By the way, my mother invites you to her home."
"Ah? When did you say that?"
Lu Jinyu was stunned and thought: Could it be that Shang Yonglin asked me to be his girlfriend just to deal with his mother?
"It will be shortly after the auction. You don't have to worry, you don't have to prepare anything, and you don't have to rush. You can go whenever you want."
Lu Jinyu thought about it and felt that since the other party had invited him, it would not be good to let him wait too long, so he said.
"Next week, there shouldn't be anything to do over the weekend."
"Row."
"Can I bring Mianmian?"
"can."
"It wouldn't be appropriate to bring nothing... How about buying a bunch of flowers?"
"Okay, I'll buy it."
Listening to Shang Yonglin's eager words, Lu Jinyu couldn't help but joke.
"Why are you so obedient now that you've become my boyfriend?"
"Isn't this as it should be? Besides, I haven't always contradicted you before, have I?"
Shang Yonglin asked back, and Lu Jinyu thought about it and realized that indeed he didn't, he just corrected her occasionally when she first became an assistant.
She nodded, and suddenly asked curiously, "So, what plans do you have for our future?"
"Speaking of which...I've actually always wanted to invite you to my house."
Lu Jinyu was a little confused after hearing this: "Didn't you just say that?"
"I was talking about the merchant's house. I live there by myself now."
"Oh, that's the case. Okay." Lu Jinyu agreed readily.
"Then I'll take you on a trip to the island."
"Okay." Lu Jinyu nodded.
An island trip for three people is not cheap, and Shang Yonglin would definitely not let her pay. Even if he asked her to, he would probably refuse, so Lu Jinyu agreed directly.
"I also want to...work out, read books, and eat three meals a day with you."
Lu Jinyu couldn't help but laugh after hearing this.
"It seems that what Xiao Wang said is true. You just like to stay at home and read books."
"Then what do you want to do?" Shang Yonglin asked.
“Follow you and see what you do every day.”
"Okay, then come with me to work at Shang's on Monday."
When Lu Jinyu heard this, she recalled some plots in the novels about domineering CEOs, so she smiled awkwardly: "Isn't this... bad?"
Shang Yonglin was puzzled, after all, they used to work together.
"What's wrong with that? I have an assistant, you can just come with me for the tour."
"Your new assistant? Male or female?" Lu Jinyu became interested when he heard the word "assistant".
Shang Yonglin smiled helplessly, wanting to complain about her focus, but he still answered seriously: "Men, except for you, other women are too annoying."
"How do you know other women are annoying without ever having met them?" Lu Jinyu asked deliberately.
Shang Yonglin knew she was making things difficult for him, so he didn't get angry. He told the truth, "I was afraid you'd get jealous, so I chose a man on purpose."
Lu Jinyu decided to stop while she was ahead and nodded with a smile.
Shang Yonglin asked her in return: "What about you? What plans do you have for our future?"
In fact, this question really stumped her. She hadn't dared to think about it before, so she hadn't thought about anything.
She thought for a moment and said, "I'll accompany you to do what you want, and then... go out and play with Mianmian together."
"Okay." Shang Yonglin agreed without thinking.
Lu Jinyu glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
She asked tentatively, "Do you want to...have dinner?"
Shang Yonglin looked at her with deep eyes and nodded silently.
"But it's still early for dinner... By the way, let's talk about games. I didn't expect you to play games!"
"Well, this story starts from when we were in school."
"Can I lean on you?"
"of course."
So the two of them snuggled together and started chatting.
