She came with the light

Chapter 123 Nightfall

The night view of Xitang is really beautiful.

Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn't get enough of it. She loved this place so much...

The night scene here is poetic and picturesque, like a splash-ink landscape painting.

The lights are reflected on the lake, just like stars falling into the world.

Visitors flock to the place, strolling along the bluestone alleys and feeling the passage of time.

The gentle breeze brings bursts of floral fragrance, making people intoxicated in this quiet night.

The mottled moonlight dances with the rippling water waves, like a dream, which makes people linger.

After Cheng Xiaoxiao and Lu Li got off the boat, they wandered around for a long time before leaving the scenic area.

Not far away was the hotel that Lu Li had asked Xiao Lin to book in advance.

After what happened last night, Lu Li did not ask Cheng Xiaoxiao's opinion this time.

He directly asked his secretary Kobayashi to book a presidential suite.

Cheng Xiaoxiao had never thought about this matter before.

On the way to the hotel, Cheng Xiaoxiao suddenly thought of it.

She asked Lu Li hurriedly, "How many rooms did you book?"

Lu Li didn't even think about it and said, "One room."

Cheng Xiaoxiao's eyes widened.

After all the planning, Cheng Xiaoxiao just forgot to ask Lu Li to book two rooms.

There was no other way, so Cheng Xiaoxiao could only ask Lu Li, "Book another room now."

Lu Li agreed verbally, but he didn't really want to place the order.

He dialed his secretary Kobayashi's number and secretly turned the volume down very low.

It was so small that even though Cheng Xiaoxiao was standing next to Lu Li, she couldn't hear what Lu Li was saying on the phone.

When Xiaolin received the call, he was outside, shopping with his wife and children.

Lu Li asked immediately, "Can we book another room in Xitang?"

Xiao Lin said without thinking, "Sure."

Kobayashi held his cell phone in one hand and held his child with the other, and his wife stood beside the child.

"Mr. Lu, can I book another room for you?" Xiao Lin said attentively on the other end of the phone.

When Lu Li heard this, his face turned ugly and he gritted his teeth.

If Xiao Lin stood in front of Lu Li at this moment, he would definitely suffer a lot.

After Xiao Lin finished asking the question on the phone, he heard silence on the other end.

He also hurriedly added, "Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu, can I make a reservation now?"

If not, Cheng Xiaoxiao was looking at Lu Li with burning eyes, Lu Li would have lost his temper right now.

Lu Li pursed his lips tightly, trying not to show it too obviously on his face.

Cheng Xiaoxiao stared at Lu Li intently, "How is it? Are there any rooms left?"

Lu Li thought about it and shook his head, "Xiao Lin said that there are no more, they are all booked."

When Xiao Lin heard Lu Li's words, he was leading the child to look at the toys nearby.

Suddenly, Xiao Lin shuddered when he heard these words.

Ruined!

I guess President Lu must have been angry just now.

At just this moment, Xiaolin's hand holding the phone was shaking a little.

Just now, Xiao Lin somehow told Lu Li that there were rooms available and they could be booked.

No wonder President Lu suddenly fell silent on the other end of the phone.

Xiaolin is very upset now.

When Xiao Lin spoke just now, he didn't think at all.

At this moment, Xiao Lin suddenly came up with an idea.

"Oh, President Lu, I just forgot. This hotel is going to receive a VIP recently."

Xiao Lin added, "The hotel gave us a room for your sake. If you book another one, it probably won't be possible."

Only then did Lu Li nodded in satisfaction on the phone.

This is the trusted secretary that Lu Li found.

After all, I've followed Lu Li for so many years, so I still have some insight.

Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at Lu Li and expressed doubt.

Just now, Cheng Xiaoxiao clearly saw the change in Lu Li's expression.

Although it only flashed by, Cheng Xiaoxiao definitely saw it.

She believed what her eyes had just seen.

Lu Li lowered his head, glanced at Cheng Xiaoxiao, and asked, "Don't believe it?"

Cheng Xiaoxiao looked up and nodded persistently.

Lu Li handed the phone directly to Cheng Xiaoxiao's ear, "Then ask Xiao Lin."

Lu Li's voice was very cold and it was clearly transmitted to the eardrums of secretary Xiao Lin through the phone.

Xiao Lin shivered with fear and couldn't help muttering in his heart, "It really is the legendary White-faced Yama. I haven't even met him in person yet, but his voice alone is frightening enough."

Lu Li's voice was full of majesty and unquestionable authority.

But who is Cheng Xiaoxiao?

She has known Lu Li for so many years and is already familiar with his character.

Naturally, she was not afraid of Lu Li at all.

Cheng Xiaoxiao took Lu Li's hand away, took the phone, and put it close to her ear.

"Xiao Lin, what did you just say to Mr. Lu?"

Although Xiao Lin was also afraid of the power of the Cheng family and Chengrui Group, Lu Li was his breadwinner after all.

Xiao Lin still has to rely on the salary Lu Li gives him every month to support his family.

At this moment, Xiao Lin could only pretend to be calm and told Cheng Xiaoxiao, "Miss Cheng, there are indeed no rooms here. They are all fully booked."

Cheng Xiaoxiao still asked with a little hope, "Really? Why don't you ask again?"

Xiao Lin objected repeatedly, "I have asked before, and there is indeed no one."

At this moment, Xiao Lin just wanted to seize the time and quickly end this phone call so that he could be with his wife and children as soon as possible.

He also wanted to resolve the matter quickly. After all, when President Lu got angry, he would not recognize any relatives.

Cheng Xiaoxiao was extremely disappointed. There were indeed no rooms available.

She hung up the phone unhappily.

Lu Li had been staring at Cheng Xiaoxiao, observing her various expressions.

At this moment, Lu Li was immediately happy when he saw the call was hung up.

Tonight, I have a beauty in my arms.

Finally, he got the beauty. Lu Li felt relieved just thinking about it.

Beautiful scenery, beautiful women by your side, and god-like happiness, that's all.

Cheng Xiaoxiao hung up the phone and started to feel embarrassed.

This night...

A man and a woman alone in a room...

Just think about what will happen.

The more Cheng Xiaoxiao thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt, and her face turned red.

Lu Li stared at Cheng Xiaoxiao without blinking.

Lu Li also saw that Cheng Xiaoxiao's face was getting redder and redder...

Cheng Xiaoxiao seemed to be held in place by an invisible force.

She stood on the street bathed in bright moonlight, motionless.

Cheng Xiaoxiao and Lu Li stayed in the scenic area for a long time, and it was already very late when they came out.

There are even fewer people on the road at this moment.

Lu Li looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao who was standing there motionless and reminded her, "Let's go back quickly. It's getting late."

However, after hearing what Lu Li said, Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't want to go back even more.

Lu Li shouted again?

Cheng Xiaoxiao still frowned and stood beside the road.

The trees on the roadside cast mottled shadows under the moonlight.

Cheng Xiaoxiao's face was delicate and gentle in the flow of light and shadow.

Lu Li grabbed Cheng Xiaoxiao's waist, carefully straightened the hem of her skirt, and then grabbed her ankles.

He picked up Cheng Xiaoxiao all at once.

Cheng Xiaoxiao suddenly felt herself floating in the air and let out a cry of "Ah".

Her voice was very loud, but fortunately there were almost no pedestrians around her, so only the sound echoed in the empty street.

Lu Li looked at the shocked Cheng Xiaoxiao and couldn't help laughing.

"Your reaction is too big. You don't have to be like this!?"

Lu Li lowered his eyes, and in just a moment, he returned to his previous expression.

Cheng Xiaoxiao struggled for a while, but Lu Li still held her tightly.

Simply, Cheng Xiaoxiao stopped struggling and let Lu Li hold her.

Occasionally, there would be a few people passing by on the street, who were surprised at Lu Li's cold aura, and curious about the woman in the arms of this cold man.

They couldn't help but look over.

Lu Li glanced at them briefly, and they all lowered their heads and walked away on their own.

Cheng Xiaoxiao pressed her head tightly into Lu Li's arms.

Cheng Xiaoxiao had noticed the prying looks from those people just now.

She didn't want to be on the headlines of some TikTok because of this incident.

She doesn't want to be famous.

The Cheng family is already famous enough.

If Cheng's father saw this, he would definitely get to the bottom of it.

Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't want to mention this matter to her father right now.

She thought that she would tell her father slowly after she had settled down.

Father, mother and Lu Li were very familiar with each other before, and they would probably approve of Lu Li and Cheng Xiaoxiao dating.
