Pampered by the Billionaire

She has been serving as the director of the planning department at KING Group for four years!

In the company, she is his colleague and subordinate, working together in perfect unison, they make a great team.

In private, they’re friends, confidants, having meals together, chatting occasionally.

Although Lu Yinchu does not talk much, in most cases, she understands him, even though he may not fully understand her!

When they talk, he mostly listens empathetically, even though she doesn’t really know how much he hears!

Three years ago, she impulsively married, only to end up divorcing soon after.

She left gracefully but then had a breakdown crying in front of him!

Nanxi had not told her the truth earlier.

In fact, up until that night, she had harboured dreams about this man.

After that night, her dreams had shattered!

She still remembers the sentence Lu Yinchu said to her that night: “If you treat love as an illusion, then it really will be just an illusion!

Only if you believe it to be real, can it truly warm you!”

She looked at his handsome face, and asked him, “What about you?

Have you ever been warmed by love?”

He squinted his eyes, and after a long pause, he finally uttered his response:

“I once met a girl, her presence warmed my whole life!”

…

Now, three years later, Guan La meets Gu Nanxi.

Even though her face is full of red hives due to an allergic reaction, they can’t hide the vitality that surrounds her.

Her features are exquisite, although they’re not overtly striking, they give a gentle, soothing effect!

She has a pair of eyes that seem to see into people’s hearts, like clear water, clean.

When she smiles, her teeth are very white and her eyes smile into a crescent shape.

She is polite, yet manages to keep her feelings well disguised.

She is thin, with long dark hair cascading down onto her shoulders, almost reaching her waist, slightly curled and not stick straight!

Her skin is fair, making the red hives on her face and body look startlingly obvious.

Under the light, it appears almost translucent, making one yearn to hold her protectively and take care of her!

Is she the girl Lu Yinchu mentioned, the girl who warmed his whole life?!

Guan La wavers for a moment; her hand holding the teacup, the scent of tea wafting up, she hadn’t taken a sip, but she had lost all mood to appreciate the tea!

“Do you want me to hide it from her?” She asked.

“No.” Lu Yinchu shook his head, “There’s no need to hide it, but it’s not the right time to tell her either.

I only hope you can help me persuade her.

Letting go of something so persistent is not easy, but there’s always a reason for this persistence.

And I don’t remember giving her a reason!”

“But she is in the hospital now!” Guan La’s voice was somewhat hurried, but seeing the slight frown in the man’s eyes, she licked her lip, took a deep breath, “Alright, I understand!”

“Thank you.”

Lu Yinchu didn’t say anything more, and Guan La took a sip of the tea, uttering two words, “Nice tea!”

“If you want to have more, you can come again next time!”

Guan La smiled, next time?

Who knows if there will be a next time?!

Although the two live in the same villa complex, with a drive of less than ten minutes in between, apart from occasionally dropping Shiyi off for a few days?

Or when she brings Shiyi back…

there are hardly any other situations!

Furthermore, when she brings Shiyi back, there’s usually only the hourly maid, Aunt Qiu, at home.

He is not there!

After finishing her tea, Guan La stood up.noveldrama

It was time for her to leave!

Lu Yinchu did not insist on her staying.

She smiled at him, “I will comfort her, and I will stay with her.

But I can’t remove her stubborn belief.

Otherwise, that night, she wouldn’t have drunk so much and ended up in hospital due to a stomach injury!”

As Guan La left, she walked away crisply.

The only thing that seemed to regret her leaving was Shiyi, who was locked in a cage, watching her go with dark eyes, seemingly reluctant.

…

Upstairs, after a lot of effort, Nanxi had finally managed to apply the ointment all over her body.

But the ointment had a bit of a smell, not offensive, but if she put on clothes, the ointment would inevitably stick to them!

She was in a dilemma because the clothes were given to her by Lu Yinchu, even if they fit well, who knows if they were specifically prepared for her?

But, if she didn’t wear them, was she supposed to walk around naked?

Clearly not!

Just as she was in a bind, there was a knock at the door.

She tensed up, grabbed the towel to cover herself and then asked, “Who is it?”

The person at the door paused, and then said, “It’s me…”

It was Lu Yinchu…

Nanxi wondered, why did she come up here?

Could it be that Guan La left?

Right, Guan La was indeed invited by Lu Yinchu to help her apply the ointment.

Now the ointment was applied, it was late at night, so why should Guan La stay…

Nanxi said, “Wait a moment!”

Without any further ado, she picked up the clothes and began to hurriedly put them on.

She didn’t care if it would get dirty, at this point her personal safety was paramount!

In less than two minutes, Nanxi was fully clothed.

The cool sensation of the ointment had significantly alleviated the pain and itchiness.

Deep down, she was grateful to Lu Yinchu!

She opened the door and there stood the tall, handsome man, holding a glass of water, his demeanor graceful and elegant.

The soft light from the corridor spilled over him, giving him a gentle glow and making him appear much more approachable than usual!

Nanxi was slightly awkward as the man handed her the water, “Have some water!”

Nanxi was stunned for a moment, but then nodded and took the glass of water from him, taking a sip.

It turned out, she was actually quite parched!

Nanxi did not know what time it was, but she knew that there were just the two of them in the large villa!

And he was standing right in front of her!

After taking a few sips, she stopped, and he asked, “What’s the matter?”

“Nothing.” Nanxi replied, “Mr.

Lu, you should go back to your room to rest.

I can…

I can take care of myself here!”

Lu Yinchu did not move.

“I’m a bit tired, I’d like to go to sleep!” she said again.

He extended his hand and she flinched, automatically stepping back, “Mr.

Lu…”

“The glass…”

Lu Yinchu sighed, “Nanxi, what do you think I was going to do?”

“…” Had she once again misjudged his intentions?!

Alright!

Nanxi obediently handed over the glass, Lu Yinchu paused for a while and then said, “It’s only a little after nine, it’s quite early.

You’ve just applied the ointment and shouldn’t go to sleep right away.

Do you want to go downstairs and watch some TV?”

…

Downstairs, Lu Yinchu brought over a plate of fruit and some small snacks, sat down next to Nanxi, and turned on the TV.

The TV was still on the science education channel, showing an episode of Animal World!

The man turned to look at her, “Is this channel okay?”

Was it okay?

Could she say it wasn’t?

Could she?

Nanxi smiled and nodded, and Lu Yinchu put down the remote control and sat down!

The two of them began, to watch TV!

The episode was about jaguars, their hunting and migrating activities, among other things, with the host’s resonant voice providing a soothing narration!

This didn’t matter much, and Nanxi, eating the fruit from the fruit plate, watched with evident interest!

That was until the host began to introduce the jaguar’s mating and reproduction activities…

Mating…

Nanxi felt awkward…
