"This..." Zhang Xiao was speechless.
Du Ming immediately waved his hand with a magnanimous air, "My family has plenty of money. Today, I'll let Li Chen pay the bill to see his sincerity."
"Is that so? Now Du Shao also sees Li Chen's sincerity, can I not pay the bill? Anyway, you are so rich, this shouldn't be a big deal for you," Luo Ningxi immediately retreated.
Du immediately panicked, "You already gave the card to the waiter, why do you want it back now?"
Luningxi saw through his stingy act. “Consider this meal as me and my husband treating Zhang, the manager. But in the future, when you invite guests, first check your wallet to see if it’s thick enough. One manager can't let employees foot the bill for you all the time.”
Zhang Xiao felt stifled inside, desperately giving Du Ming the eye.
Luningxi's provocation wasn't about money for him, it was about face.
Zhang Xiao hinted at Du Ming to settle the bill, slapping Luo Ningxi's face hard. However, Du Ming directly pretended not to see it. He was cleaner than his face in his pocket. This meal was meant to fleece Li Chen.
In the end, this meal cost Luo Ningxi nearly 200,000 yuan. After Luo Ningxi paid the bill, she grabbed Li Bochen and strode out of the restaurant.
As they walked to a deserted parking lot, Luo Ningxi suddenly stopped and grabbed Li Bochen's collar, pulling him in front of her.
"So, what did you do these past two days that you ran out?"
In the quiet open-air parking lot, Li Bochen's tall figure staggered towards Luo Ningxi.
A gentle breeze blew in, carrying the faint scent of her body wash.
Li Boche's Adam's apple rolled, his eyes darkening as he stared intently at her rosy cheeks. "Nothing, just too busy with work."
Luo Ningxi's voice trembled with emotion upon hearing this, anger lacing her words as she questioned, "Li Bochen! Is there a single truthful word that ever comes out of your mouth? Luna already told me, you haven't just been late these days, but leaving early too, like someone has drained you dry…"
Li Bochen's eyebrows tightened, his face darkening slightly. "You believe her words?"
"She's in HR, would she lie and trick you?"
Li Bochen curled his lips, "You saw it too, she just went along with Zhang Xiao to throw him under the bus. She's not as righteous as you think."
Luningxi said a little irritably, "No matter what, the fact is you're late and leave early, right? You've never stayed late at Hongda either. What did you do when you left work early before?"
Li Boche questioned, "Is this what you call checking in?"
Lu Ningxi was taken aback by this.
Li Bochen forcefully locked eyes with her, his big hand cupping her jaw. "Aren't you constantly saying that we're a fake couple? That I'm just your employee? When did the boss start caring about their employee's personal life? Hmm?"
Luo Ningxi's heart skipped a beat, and she bit her lower lip in annoyance. "I was afraid you'd overwork yourself and get some kind of nasty illness... Mmm..."
Before she could finish her words, Li Bochen suddenly encircled her waist and pulled her into his arms. He leaned down and sealed her lips with his own.
The searing kiss felt like a punishment for her loose lips.
The tip of the tongue slowly probed inwards, carrying with it a force that swept everything away, emptying Lorraine Creek's lungs.
Lu Ningxi's eyes widened in astonishment, and she instinctively reached out to push him...
As soon as my hand touched his chest, he effortlessly grabbed it and twisted it behind my back.
Deep kisses, one after another.
Luo Ningxi struggled, letting out muffled groans as her body was forced backwards, arching into an impossible curve.
