Pampered by the Billionaire

220: Chapter 184 Lu Yinchu: Truly Attractive Man_1 220: Chapter 184 Lu Yinchu: Truly Attractive Man_1 About fifteen minutes into the ride, at the entrance of a supermarket, Nanxi said she wanted to get out, Li Muyun offered, “I have time, I can take you directly to West Street!”

Nanxi forced a smile and said, “No need.

I need to go to the supermarket to buy something for my grandmother.

I will catch a taxi back later.

Thank you, sister Muyun!”

Li Muyun thought for a bit and said, “Alright then, but be careful!”

Nanxi nodded, opened the car door and got off.

Li Muyun was about to roll down her window to watch Nanxi leave.

Under the dim light, the young girl’s face was soft and delicate but there was a fragility to her that made people want to protect her…

Nanxi, a girl you can’t bring yourself to hate!

Li Muyun said, “Goodbye, Nanxi!”

Smiling, Nanxi turned her back and left.

Li Muyun started the car, and the red sports car vanished into the neon depths against the dazzling street lights.

Not far away in a temporary parking spot, a man in a suit and leather shoes got out of a black Land Rover.noveldrama

The man opened the back door of the car, and the man in the backseat got out; his tall figure forming a graceful curve as he stood under the soft street light.

He was dressed in a dark blue suit; his handsome features and indifferent expression looked almost unreal under the soft light.

His eyes were dark, his gaze locked in one direction, and his thin lips were firmly pressed together.

Bathed in this gentle light, he looked less severe than usual, somewhat unreal as if sculpted into a painting – a man so perfect it takes one’s breath away!

Mo Yan asked, “Mr.

Lu, do you want me to wait here for you?”

“No need!” After a pause, he added, “Wait for my call!”

“Yes!” Mo Yan pursed his lips, watching as the man walked towards the bustling supermarket.

…

Nanxi found willpower to be a strange thing.

Despite her discomfort at the Li family’s house and later in Li Muyun’s car, she hid it well.

They may have noticed something was off but would not have thought much of it, perhaps assuming she was simply nervous.

But now, without any pretence, she found even taking a few steps difficult.

Her stomach was aching, and she started to feel a little itchy.

She checked her arm…

As she had feared, small red blotches were slowly appearing…

She was allergic to spicy food.

Despite loving it, she never dared to indulge.

Doctors had said it was due to her constitution.

She didn’t understand the details, but she didn’t want to appear in public covered in a rash.

So she stayed away from spicy food whenever she could!

Tonight, Ye Yuchen deliberately passed her a piece of spicy chicken.

Later, Qi Qun’s attitude changed abruptly, repetitively serving her braised spare ribs.

After Li Weihuan left, he turned cold again; Nanxi had figured it out – they had done it on purpose!

No one would have cared about her preferences when she had dinner at the Li’s.

Li Weihuan probably wouldn’t have been so considerate to consider her dietary restrictions.

Given Nanxi wasn’t convinced the Li family would prepare a bland meal just for her, she expected a few dishes to be spicy.

At dinner, Li Weihuan knew she couldn’t eat spicy food and only dished out bland veggies for her.

Ye Yuchen might have caught on to it, which is why she intentionally served spicy chicken to Nanxi…

And Qi Qun’s change of heart could be attributed to Ye Yuchen’s persuasion?

Or perhaps…

a reminder…

Nanxi didn’t want to think of people as being too complicated, yet everyone around her saw her as too naive!

So naive that they could bully and manipulate her on a whim without her noticing!

Did it feel sad?

A little.

But all Nanxi could do was bear it and couldn’t even muster a single rebuttal for herself!

Her phone rang and Nanxi checked the caller ID.

It was Li Weihuan!

Nanxi picked up and continued walking towards the nearby hospital from the supermarket, just a ten-minute walk away from where she got off earlier.

Li Weihuan asked her, “Where are you?”

“At Uncle’s place, there’s something going on at home,” Nanxi replied.

“…” Li Weihuan was silent on the other end of the line.

Nanxi was about to ask him what was wrong when Li Weihuan said, “Nanxi, are you angry with me?”

“No!” Nanxi denied, “Weihuan, you’re overthinking.

I’m not angry, I promise you!”

Without responding, Li Weihuan was silent, making Nanxi somewhat worried.

She called out, “Weihuan?”

“Nanxi, I love you!”

“…”

The abrupt confession left Nanxi rooted on the spot.

The itching on her body became more intense.

The evening breeze brushed against her face, cool and comfortable!

Li Weihuan said, “Nanxi, I just want to tell you, no matter how unhappy you felt tonight at our house, no matter what my family’s attitude was, I won’t change my mind.

I love you!

I only want you, and no other woman, no matter how good she is, matters to me.

It’s just you, Gu Nanxi!”

Nanxi bit her lip, not knowing what to say.

What could she say?

With such grand feelings of love laid before her, aside from accepting, what other options did she have?

She suddenly felt a sense of suffocation deep inside.

She could hardly breathe!

She took a deep breath and said to Li Weihuan, “I understand!

Don’t worry, Weihuan!

I won’t take it to heart!”

…

After hanging up, Nanxi felt a chill on her fingertips.

The phone in her hand was a gift from Li Weihuan.

It broke mysteriously before, and Lu Yinchu got it fixed for her…

Lu Yinchu…

For some reason, upon thinking about this name, her heart started to sting even more intensely than before!

…

The hospital.

Nanxi went to see a doctor, got an allergy shot, and took some medicine.

Her stomach felt better, but the other symptoms persisted.

The red blotches on her body and arms did not subside but instead spread even more aggressively.

The doctor said it would take at least three days for them to disappear.

Nanxi went to the restroom and noticed a few more spots on her face while looking into the mirror.

She grimaced at her reflection.

If she were to go out like this, she would probably scare people away!

Last time she had a rash on her face, Nanxi hid in her dorm room and refused to come out.

She only saw Li Weihuan at night, hoping the dim light would hide her spots from him!

But Li Weihuan didn’t care, he would parade with her around the campus regardless.

He claimed that in his eyes, Nanxi was the most beautiful!

At that time, Nanxi had raised her eyebrow and thought, “Do you really think I’m blind?”

Li Weihuan was handsome, adored by many girls, and that was no secret!

In her freshman year, Li Weihuan was a senior.

She had witnessed firsthand the obsession girls had for him!

Li Weihuan and Yan Chenqing were the heartthrobs of H University!

Even till this day, they were talked about with fond nostalgia, referred to as the “unparagoned duo.” But as per Nanxi’s opinion, a man’s attractiveness wasn’t simply his exterior, but also his depth and demeanor…

A truly attractive man should be well-rounded both inside and out, for example, someone like Lu Yinchu…
