My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

She turned sideways to look outside the window and said softly, “Xiao Zhou, I am a little tired. I want to let myself rest for a few days. Sometimes, men are really like the sand you hold in your hands. The harder you grab onto them, the faster they flow away. Nobody would be a robot and go to war daily without rest. Everyone’s heart is made out of meat; they would be upset and disappointed also. So, don’t bother with me. After I am depressed for a while I will recover very quickly.”

In the hotel

Ning Qing and Xiao Zhou walked into the hotel lobby. Xu Junxi was already there waiting for them.

“President Xu.” Ning Qing walked forward.

“Ning Qing, you are here.” Xu Junxi gave a warm smile and said, “I heard Xiao Zhou say that you went to Europe these past few days. How was the itinerary?”

Ning Qing curled her lips into a smile. Her smile was very bright, and she said half-jokingly, “Not bad, but Finland isn’t a good place for travel. I don’t think I will be returning in the future.” Xu Junxi looked at her eyes seriously. They have known each other for 20 years. Whether she was being sincere or not, he could tell with one look at her eyes.

Just like now: Although she was smiling on the surface, her smile did not reach her eyes. She had a forced smile, and she was being fake.

“How come you thought of putting on foundation today?” Xu Junxi looked at her cheeks. “I thought you usually didn’t put on makeup?”

“Oh, President Xu, our Ning Qing is not feeling well. Her stomach hurts, and her face was a little pale, so I helped her to put on some powder. I didn’t think that you would notice. Later, at the dinner table, you need to help Ning Qing by drinking alcohol on her behalf. She cannot take cold stuff now…”

“Xiao Zhou!” Ning Qing shouted to stop her. Xiao Zhou was on the receiving end of Ning Qing’s stare, and she knew that she had made a mistake, and she stuck her tongue out.

“Ah, it’s nothing.” Xu Junxi laughed and said, “Ning Qing, we are still friends. If there is anything that you still need help with, you can let me know.”

“That is a must. Like this time, when I invested in an entertainment company, didn’t I come looking for you? President Xu, let us go in to speak.”

“Sure.” The trio left in the direction of the private room.

But at this moment, a handsome shadow appeared, Lu Shaoming had one hand in his pocket and walked in the direction of the lobby. Xu Junxi noticed him. The two men’s gazes collided and had some kind of spark.

“Young Master Lu.” Xu Junxi stopped in his tracks and took the initiative to greet him. Lu Shaoming seemed like he had business to attend to in this hotel. After hearing Xu Junxi call out to him, he walked in front of the trio. His bright eyes scanned Xu Junxi, and his lips curled up into a cold arc. “You are?”

Xu Junxi laughed in his heart. He heard that this man had lost his memory. Hmm, it really seemed like he had lost his memory, but this feeling of rivalry was still the same as before. Also, although this man had lost his memory, he could still pretend. Although he obviously came here for them, he still needed Xu Junxi to call out to him, only then did he walk over.

Xu Junxi introduced himself and said, “Young Master Lu, how are you. I have been looking forward to meeting you for a long time. You might have not known me as a person, but you have definitely heard of my name before, I am Xu Junxi, Ning Qing’s first love.”

Ning Qing heard his introduction and could not help but give Xu Junxi a stare. Xu Junxi looked at her with a pampering smile. This was all taken in by Lu Shaoming. His brows were cold and collected. His sharp and piercing gaze scanned their faces during their interaction.

He was Xu Junxi?

He had actually heard of him before.

Very good, he remembered him now.

Xu Junxi did not have to look at Lu Shaoming to know that there were two cold and piercing gazes directed on his face. He shrugged his shoulders carelessly and said, “Young Master Lu, I have a dinner appointment with Ning Qing. We are going to the sixth floor. Where are you heading to? Do you want to take the elevator with us?”

“That’s such a coincidence, I am also going to the sixth floor. Let us go together, then,” Lu Shaoming said casually.
