Chapter 1403 - 1430: Every Blow Deadly

Chapter 1403: Chapter 1430: Every Blow Deadly

Lu Xingshen’s low, pleasant voice, with a hint of lazy perfection in a Beijing accent, was Jiang Tian’s favorite tone, but it shot out deadly words.

Jiang Tian felt as if she had been slapped hard, her already pale face instantly turning almost transparent.

She thought she was strong enough to withstand Lu Xingshen’s indifference, aloofness, and even bad behavior.

Yet Lu Xingshen always found a way to deepen her pain.

"Oh, a woman who sells herself cheap?" The female assistant giggled, sizing up Jiang Tian with eyes full of disdain, "I say, Lady, you should stop pestering him. I’ve seen many women like you, and Director Lu wouldn’t possibly be interested in you."

Jiang Tian’s fingers hanging by her side trembled fiercely. She pursed her lips, her eyes filled with mist,

"Mr. Lu, I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have let Mom ask Assistant Xiao Wu about your schedule, but we care about you, there’s no other meaning..."

"Let go!"

He grew increasingly cold, truly terrifying in his demeanor.

Jiang Tian liked him, but she feared him too. Yet she couldn’t really let go, lest Assistant Xiao Wu get fired because of her. Caught in a dilemma, tears started pouring down uncontrollably.

Lu Xingshen’s icy eyes slightly warmed at Jiang Tian’s tears, but only for an instant, before he coldly said,

"What’s this, acting pitiful again." His lips curled with sarcasm, "Are you planning to cry to my mom again, and have her come and slap me?"

Jiang Tian couldn’t hear clearly, "What slap?"

"Pretentious." Lu Xingshen’s disgust intensified, "Jiang Tian, I’m telling you, don’t scheme to approach me, put all your disgraceful thoughts away. I can still let you live a peaceful life, but if you dare to try any tricks again, you can test where my limits are?"

Jiang Tian’s fingers clinging to the car door were pried open one by one by the man, the pain making her gasp, Lu Xingshen’s eyes glanced at the meal box in her hand, continuing coldly, "And also, I always thought the soup for the past two months was from a restaurant. When I found out it was made by you, it felt like eating a fly. Don’t bring it in front of me again, it’s disgusting, understand?"

Jiang Tian’s eyes were already very red, she looked down, desperately trying to hold back tears, telling herself not to cry, but her voice still choked, "I... I understand."

Turns out, her sincere feelings were nothing in his eyes.

Turns out, her cooking for him was something he neither appreciated nor wanted, even finding it nauseating.

Turns out, no matter how hard she tried, he still disliked her.

But she was unwilling, truly unwilling. She wanted to change Lu Xingshen, wanted him to live a good life with her, wanted Zhouzhou to have a father.

The gentle Lu Xingshen from that day, seemed like a dream, yet deeply etched in her heart. She longed to relive it again.

How could she settle her heart without hitting the wall once?

After Lu Xingshen left, only then dared Xiao Wu come over, "Miss Jiang, are you alright?"

Jiang Tian burst into tears,

"Wooo, Assistant Xiao Wu, I’m sorry..."

Xiao Wu felt a bit embarrassed, "It’s okay, it’s okay, anyway I was planning to resign in a few months, I’m going home to get married, consider this an early departure."

"Really?" Jiang Tian’s eyes were red, she was healed again.

Xiao Wu nodded, Jiang Tian sniffed, handing the meal box to him, "Then this is for you to drink, as your wedding gift, congratulations."
