It's terrible. Mr. Lu is too clingy.

Judging from the information exchanged before, this person is Secretary Xie’s cheating ex-boyfriend.

Lu Ci also crossed his arms over his chest, leaned back calmly, and said arrogantly:

"First, don't call me A'ran anymore, it's disgusting to me.

Second, who are you to me now? What does it matter to you where I am?

Third, it’s just right that you came to the hospital. I suggest you go see a doctor, such as the kidney deficiency department or the venereal disease department, and get a thorough check-up.

It's right to take preventive measures even if you don't have the disease. But with your personality, what if you really get it one day?"

Xie Xingran had already sat up, trying to hold back his laughter, and felt that his voice was particularly pleasant when he spoke to people.

Every word of this is heart-wrenching and full of malice!

Jiang Ciyang held the flower basket tightly in his hand to avoid losing control on the spot.

"Aran, how come you became so ruthless in your words overnight?" He put down the flower basket calmly.

"I've already explained what happened last night. After all, we were childhood sweethearts. You should trust me."

Lu Ciye: [Ugh, I don't believe you. Your face is thicker than a city wall, and your appearance is not that great. Why does Secretary Xie have such poor taste?]

Xie Xingran: ...

Everyone has blind moments.

Lu Ci also rolled his eyes and was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Jiang Ci Yang was indeed shameless enough, and he found a chair and sat down.

"Aran, won't you introduce this person to me?"

Lu Ci also raised an eyebrow. "He is the famous new president of the Lu Group, Lu, Ci, Ye! Not only is he handsome, but he is also kind-hearted. He was the one who saved me last night."

[Well, although I didn't completely save her, I still contributed half of it! Otherwise, she wouldn't be lying here.]

Xie Xingran glanced at the arrogant "self" and felt a little helpless.

He felt at ease using "others" to praise himself, but didn't he consider that it was impossible for her to say such words based on her personality?

If there is a chance in the future, he must maintain his cool image.

Xie Xingran sighed deeply in his heart.

Jiang Ciyang's originally hostile gaze paused, and then seamlessly raised a faint smile.

"It's Mr. Lu. I've heard a lot about you. I'm the general manager of Jiang Group, and my name is Jiang Ciyang."

As he spoke, he walked over and handed over a business card, but Xie Xingran didn't want to accept it.

After a few seconds of stalemate, Jiang Ciyang put away the business card and tried to excuse himself somewhat awkwardly:

"That's right, I'm just a general manager. If there's any cooperation in the future, it's still our CEO Jiang who will come."

Lu Ci also had sharp eyes and noticed something different with a quick glance.

[No, why does he also have the character "Ci"? Unlucky.]

Xie Xingran: ...You really are always criticizing everything.

Jiang Ciyang did not forget the main purpose of coming to the hospital and looked at Lu Ciye who was sitting lazily.

I always feel that there is something wrong with Xie Xingran in front of me.

It was possible that the blow last night was too great for her. Although she didn't show it, she must be feeling bad inside.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ciyang's eyes softened a little.

"There was some misunderstanding between Ms. Xie and me, so I came to explain and apologize to her in person.

Mr. Lu, you should have a good rest first, we won’t disturb you. Ah Ran, can you come out with me for a while? "

Lu Ci also smiled wryly: "No, I have nothing to say to a cheating man."

Jiang Ciyang's expression froze.

No matter how thick-skinned he was, he couldn't save face at this moment.

"Ah Ran." He lowered his voice, "I already said what happened last night was a misunderstanding. Can you please stop making trouble with me?"

Before Lu Ci could mock him again, Xie Xingran couldn't help but speak:

"Manager Jiang, we all know whether this is a misunderstanding or not. It would be shameless for you to continue making trouble.

This is my ward, please leave now and take your flower basket with you."

This statement is merciless.

Jiang Ciyang's face couldn't be any darker, and his fists were clenched tightly.

But faced with a president who was more powerful than him, he knew the situation and didn't continue to disturb him.

The current situation is very unfavorable for him, so he can only leave first.

"Mr. Lu, we'll see each other next time we have the chance."

The door was gently closed.

Lu Ciye: [Wow, I'm a little impressed by how he handles life. But this guy is so patient, could he have been a Ninja Turtle in his previous life?]

Xie Xingran: Puff, cough, cough.

She found it quite funny to listen to his inner thoughts sometimes, so funny that it made her laugh to death.

Xie Xingran: "Mr. Lu, thank you for believing me and for protecting my reputation."

"What's the big deal?" Lu Ci waved his hand indifferently, then suddenly remembered something else. "By the way, does he know your home address? I don't want to be pestered by him every day in the future."

Obviously this question is redundant. They were once boyfriend and girlfriend, so their addresses must be mutual.

The thought of being forced to hug or kiss someone by a cheating man gave Lu Ci goosebumps.

"I don't care. I have to go back to my own house. There are extra rooms anyway. It's more than enough for the two of us to live together."

Xie Xingran thought for two seconds and nodded to indicate that he had no objection.

This is the only way for now. It can't be considered living together, it's just sharing a house at most.

"Then I'll transfer it to you every month, ok? Is fifty thousand enough for accommodation?"

Lu Ci also waved his hand and said, "No need. My apartment is small and I just moved in not long ago. I am quite lonely by myself. It's good to have a companion."

Xie Xingran did not insist. After all, that amount of money was nothing to a president.

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Lu."

"You're welcome." Lu Ci also raised his eyebrows, pressed the corners of his mouth, and put on a very generous expression.

[Ah—finally, I don’t have to face the spooky house alone at night anymore. I’m so happy!]

Xie Xingran: ...Is he really that afraid of ghosts? He wouldn't sleep with the lights on, would he?

Xie Xingran was right in his guess. Lu Ci would also turn on a desk lamp by the bed when he slept.

If he doesn't turn it on, he might scare himself to death in the dark.

—

In this car accident, Xie Xingran only suffered a small injury on his forehead, so Lu Ci was fine after walking and jumping around.

But Lu Ciye's forehead injury was quite serious, and Xie Xingran was affected and had to stay in bed for a day receiving intravenous fluids.

It was not until the evening that the two were able to leave the hospital.

Lu Ci is not like other CEOs who have drivers or assistants to pick him up when he travels. He is just like an ordinary worker, very down-to-earth.

He called a Didi car on his phone and the two of them got in the back seat together.

The car was driving steadily on the road. Xie Xingran looked at Lu Ciye who was playing with his mobile phone, and seemed to want to say something but stopped himself several times.

Forget it, maybe if I change my body, the problem will go away?

Finally, halfway through,

Lu Ci also felt a tightness in his chest and dizziness. He turned off his cell phone and, after obtaining Xie Xingran's consent, half-opened the window to let in some fresh air.

[Fuck, I feel like throwing up. Could there be some kind of aftereffect? Should I go back to the hospital for another checkup?]

Xie Xingran turned his head to look at the person who was holding his forehead in pain, and sighed in his heart. This disease is indeed not easy to cure.

She took out a plastic bag and put it in his hand. She didn't have the conditions just now, so she only prepared this. In the past, she would prepare a small piece of ginger.

"I get carsick. Take this. It's a good idea to be prepared. If you feel like vomiting, spit it out. It will make you feel better."

Lu Ci was also holding a plastic bag, staring at her blankly, somewhat unable to react.

"Dizzy, carsick?"

[…The kind of motion sickness that makes you throw up leftover food?! No, isn’t her health that bad?]

【Why am I so unlucky~】

Xie Xingran touched his nose and didn't dare to look at him.

"Maybe it's genetic, I'm very prone to motion sickness. If the journey is a little long, I fall asleep as soon as I get in the car, and I absolutely cannot look at my phone."

Lu Ci also felt hopeless, his head fell on Xie Xingran's shoulder, and he said weakly:

"It's my own shoulder, can you lean on it? And I'm carsick because of you."

Xie Xingran's body was stiff for two seconds, but after hearing his slightly complaining tone, he slowly relaxed and moved closer to make him feel more comfortable.

"Go to sleep, you won't feel uncomfortable if you sleep." She whispered softly, feeling a little guilty.

After the guilt, a sense of joy emerged immorally.

She finally no longer has to worry about getting carsick.

God knows how uncomfortable motion sickness is.

Slowly, Lu Ci fell asleep on her shoulder without any precautions.

The journey was smooth, but when they encountered a turn, Xie Xingran still had to take action and carefully support his head.

The back seat was narrow, and they snuggled together, isolated from the bright and bustling world outside the window.

Forming a warm little world that belongs to them alone.
