Xiang Xiaoyuan did not expect Lu Wanggui to get off work so early again today. However, he had finished his meal at the office before he got off work. After Xiang Xiaoyuan had finished eating the sweet and sour ribs made by the chef at home, she was satisfied. She patted her stomach in satisfaction and collapsed on the sofa.
She had wanted to lie down to digest her food, but who would have thought that Lu Wanggui would ask her out for a walk in the next second.
Xiang Xiaoyuan: "..."
It was a little strange.
When she had just transmigrated, Lu Wanggui was still overseas on a business trip. During that time, he had not called her at all. If there was anything, he would contact her through his assistant. After he returned from his business trip, although he was not cold to her, he was not enthusiastic either. It could be seen that Lu Wanggui did not really care about the original owner.
But now, he seemed to be more and more like a husband. He would give her a bank card, take her out for supper after knowing that she hadn't eaten dinner, and even ask her out for a walk when she was full...
Lu Wanggui went upstairs and changed into casual clothes. It felt leisurely to stroll in the courtyard. Xiang Xiaoyuan walked beside him quietly.
"Why aren't you talking?" Lu Wanggui turned his head, not used to Xiang Xiaoyuan's silence.
Xiang Xiaoyuan raised her head to look at him and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to take a walk with me today?"
Lu Wanggui didn't want to explain in detail. In order to make time for a walk, he deliberately worked faster and rejected many social events. He didn't want to say how much work was waiting for him after he's done with the walk.
Anyway, time was like water in a sponge. As long as he wanted to, he could squeeze it out.
"There haven't been a lot of things recently."
"Oh."
Xiang Xiaoyuan didn't suspect him. Thinking of Lin Siqing's matter, she said, "Oh right, Lin Siqing came to find me today."
Lu Wanggui didn't look surprised. "And?"
"She apologized to me and explained the relationship between the two of you. She said that she wanted to explain to the netizens after the incident happened, but was advised by your company's public relations department not to say anything."
"I'm not too sure about the details of the incident. It was all handled by the public relations department." Lu Wanggui pondered for a moment and said, "The people in the company's public relations department are very professional. They would have weighed the pros and cons before giving the suggestion."
"Yes, I understand." Xiang Xiaoyuan nodded in understanding. "Sometimes it's like this. The more you explain, the more people will pay attention to you. It's better to quietly wait for the matter to subside."
As she walked forward, she saw a small pebble in front of her. After taking two quick steps, she kicked the pebble away in a childish manner. Then, she turned to look at Lu Wanggui. She walked backwards as she watched Lu Wanggui approach her step by step.
Lu Wanggui saw her actions and reminded her with a faint smile, "Be careful not to fall down."
"I won't."
Xiang Xiaoyuan shook her head. "Lin Siqing also told me something. She said that the scandal last time wasn't leaked by her competitor. She asked someone to investigate and said that the person who leaked the news wasn't someone from the entertainment industry."
Lu Wanggui was still calm. "Really?"
Xiang Xiaoyuan was puzzled. "But who else could it be if not someone from the entertainment industry?"
The walk was just an opportunity for them to chat, so Xiang Xiaoyuan excitedly analyzed it with him. "Do you think it could be your business competitor?"
Lu Wanggui was amused by her guess. Looking at her young and lively face, he felt that he had also been infected with some vitality.
Xiang Xiaoyuan sniffed in annoyance. "What are you laughing at?"
Lu Wanggui restrained his smile and nodded lightly. "It's possible."
"But if it's a business competitor, why would they do such a thing?" Xiang Xiaoyuan really couldn't figure it out.
Lu Wanggui saw that she was racking her brain, so he smiled and said gently, "Maybe they want to use such a thing to attack me."
"Attack you?"
"Yes, after all, I'm a married man now."
Xiang Xiaoyuan suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but snicker.
Lu Wanggui looked at her. "What are you laughing at?"
Xiang Xiaoyuan's eyes curved. "Laughing at your competitor, do they think that you don't have men's morals?"
"Men's morals?"
Lu Wanggui could not help but laugh. "If there's a problem with the CEO's lifestyle, it will also affect the company."
Xiang Xiaoyuan kicked a stone. "Then do you think I'll receive strange calls in the future?"
"Strange in what sense?"
"The kind that you see on TV..."
Xiang Xiaoyuan cleared her throat and deliberately softened her tone. Her voice was so sweet, "Hello, are you Mrs. Lu? I'm so sorry, CEO Lu is taking a shower and can't take your call for the time being."
Lu Wanggui almost deviated from his usual self. He clenched his fist with one hand and covered the smile that was pouring out of his mouth.. He said, "No."
