Kapitel 70: Chapter 69: Substitute
**TAK**
**TAK**
**TAK**
**TAK**
Lu Xie finally finished encoding the last chapter for today, then she look outside, and it was already sunset she glanced at Eulia sleeping then closed her laptop, and slowly got out of bed.
She silently walked toward the door and then went out while closing the door softly afraid to wake her up. Eulia who heard the door closed softly curled in the bed and won't stop blushing.
She couldn't sleep and just listened to her encoding until now, every time her fingers made a slight tak her heart also went to the rhythm.
Now she is slightly sure she felt not only friendship from her but other feelings also.
Outside the room, Lu Xie went to the kitchen and took out some ingredients from the fridge this place was stocked with food.
She put on an apron and then started to wash the vegetables and started to cook.
Mrs. Jian and Lu's mom came out the door smelling the delicious food coming from the kitchen.
"Axie's food smelled so good" Mrs. Jian smelled the food
"Where is Eulia?" Lu's mom asked
"She's still asleep in our room" Lu Xie replied
"I see, by the way, Axie do you have a lover?" Mrs. Jian asked
After Eulia finished calming herself down she opened the door and heard voices in the kitchen she was about to approach them when she heard her mother ask.
She subconsciously hid behind a wall and listened, she didn't know why but she wanted to listen to her answer.
"I don't auntie but I did have an ex" Lu Xie answered honestly
"Oh my, is she your first love?" Mrs. Jian asked softly
"Yes auntie," Lu Xie said seriously
Eulia felt sad and a little hurt, she already has a first love.
"Then are you ready for another relationship?" Mrs. Jian asked again
"Well, I'm ready I won't grieve to someone who didn't love me" Lu Xie answered simply
"oh my, did your ex not love you," Mrs. Jian asked a little stunned
"Yes Auntie, she used me as a substitute for another woman," Lu Xie said calmly
Lu's mom felt very sad for her daughter and hugged her.
"Mom don't worry she's not worth my love" Lu Xie hugged her mom and patted her back
"That bastard, she doesn't deserve you at all. My baby is the most loving of all that bastard will be sorry after you left her" Lu's mom said comfortingly
"Your mom's right, a person like her doesn't deserve you it's better to look for someone better and show to her face" Mrs. Jian added
Lu Xie giggled "I understand auntie" she nodded
"So~~~ how about my daughter" Mrs. Jian smirked
Lu's mom let go and sat beside Mrs. Jian also looking at her daughter smirking.
Lu Xie knew the meaning in their eyes and smiled helplessly.
Eulia who was hiding suddenly felt nervous and her heart was anticipating her answer, her hands were sweating and she listened intently to not miss any word.
"Well, I like her she's beautiful, kind, and a dream lover," Lu Xie said honestly
"Aawweeee" the two elders teased her
Eulia who heard it, can't help but show herself and said without thinking "I... I like you too, can you be my girlfriend?" she asked blushing furiously
Mrs. Jian and Lu's mom looked at Eulia in shock then smirked happily, they both took out melon seeds and watched the show.
Lu Xie didn't expect that she was listening and was dumbfounded.
Eulia noticed that she spat so suddenly and Lu Xie was now looking at her without speaking. Her heart felt like it was being clenched tightly and was hurt by her silence.
She lowered her head, her eyes turned red, and was about to cry. What was I expecting we just met for a few days and suddenly confessed. I'm an idiot.
Lu Xie saw her lowering her head and instantly stopped what she was doing then, approached her and hugged her in her arms.
Eulia felt warm arms wrapped around her body and hugged her tightly she raise her head and looked at Lu Xie a little aggrieved.
Lu Xie smiled "I was shocked when you suddenly confessed that I blanked out for a moment" she explained
"T...then what is your answer for my confession?" Eulia gripped the clothes that is on her chest looking at her with expecting eyes
Lu Xie felt a little lost, well she did have an impression on her and she also felt a few times she liked her. Seeing her expecting eyes she can't bear to refuse her.
She didn't want to be a scumbag that would manipulate her feelings for her so she decided.
"Well I'm not sure if I like you that way yet, but how about we try for a month and see if I have the same feelings for you," Lu Xie said softly
Eulia was a little dissatisfied but nodded eagerly, she knew that they both still don't know each other that properly yet so this is her chance to make her fall for her.
"Okay, I agree I'll make sure to make you fall for me" Eulia hugged her excitedly
"I'll be waiting for it" Lu Xie kissed her forehead
Eulia blushed when she felt soft and warm lips pressed against her forehead.
"Ahem!" a fake cough interrupted them
Mrs. Jian and Lu's mom looked at them smirking like there was no tomorrow.
"Sorry to interrupt you love birds but we're hungry" Mrs. Jian smiled
"Then I'll prepare the food" Lu Xie let go of her then prepare the dishes
Eulia sat down near her mom and asked nervously "Mom do you agree if we can try it for a month?"
"It's no problem for me, you can do anything you want but please stop if it's really not working then let go, okay?" Mrs. Jian held her hand
"I understand mom" Eulia nodded obediently
"Don't worry, we'll have to wait for the result in a month" Lu's mom patted her head gently
Lu Xie came with the dishes and then served them on the table as well as some plates then utensils.
"Axie, I'll leave my daughter to your care in a month so please try to love her sincerely," Mrs. Jian said seriously
"I'll try auntie that's why we're trying for a month" Lu Xie nodded seriously
"Good, then let's eat" Mrs. Jian smiled satisfied
-----
After dinner,
The two elders went back to their room first to rest, leaving only the two of them in the living room. Eulia was sitting on the sofa fidgeting her fingers.
It was awkward.
The living room was dead silent and only the washing of plates can be heard.
Lu Xie washed the last plate and wiped her hands then noticed the little lover obediently sitting on the sofa fidgeting her fingers, she smiled.
She approached her from behind and touched her shoulder.
"Hheeeee" Eulia shrieked lightly
"Pfftt" Lu Xie stifles her laughter
Eulia heard it and raised her head to see her behind her then pouted cutely. She looks so cute
"Sorry, but you look tense so I want to lighten up the mood" Lu Xie scratched her cheeks a little embarrassed
Eulia giggled then hold her hand that was on her shoulder and smiled sweetly.
"How about let's talk on the balcony so we can get to know each other" Lu Xie suggested
Eulia nodded happily.
-------
Back in the Company,
Shuna was listless for the whole day, she felt that something was missing recently and she doesn't know what that is.
She groaned her annoyance, flicked her hair back, and massage her temple.
**KNOCK**
**KNOCK**
**sigh**
"Come in," Shuna said hoarsely
The secretary entered the room while holding a bunch of papers in her hand.
"Miss, the Zhou Enterprise wants to collaborate with the company for his upcoming project" the Secretary then placed the papers on her table
Shuna frowned she remembered the man who held Lu Xie's hand in the lobby days ago. Tsk
"What project does he want to collaborate with?" she asked coldly
"He plans to build a restaurant near the company and named it AXIE RESTO" the Secretary read the paper in her hand
**SNAPPED**
The pen in Shuna's hand snapped into two, scaring the secretary.
'Woo woo did I say something wrong' the Secretary cried inwardly
Shuna was foaming with anger, she was not dumb enough not to know what that name referred to and what that man is trying to show on her face.
She gritted her teeth making a crunching sound.
"Haa... Now I'm pissed off" Shuna murmured
"Tell Mr. Lee to have a meeting with me in half an hour in the **** cafe" Shuna stood up
"Yes miss" the secretary bowed then left the room of the lion she sighed in relief
Shuna stood by the open window in her office thinking, why was her reaction greatly changed when it comes to Lu Xie? Why has she pissed off that a man is courting her? Why is she possessive of her? And why is her heart beating loudly when she heard her name being mentioned?
"*sigh* Do I like you?" she mumbled deeply
Staring at the lights of the building outside and the cars that drove by.
----
"Did she accept the collaboration?" a man in a tuxedo suit asked while sitting with crossed legs on the sofa
"She said to meet for a meeting in the **** cafe," a woman wearing a dress said politely by the side
"Tsk, that woman just won't accept it" Zhou Lee sneered
The woman kept quiet by the side waiting for orders from the boss.
"Nevermind, let's go meet her" Zhou Lee stood up and fixed his suit then went out followed by the woman
