Chapter 266 I can predict the future (1/2)
Lexi smiled as she carefully traveled her gaze onto his dashing facial features despite his cute pouting. Along with every move of her eyes, the side of her lips also curled upward.
”You always say you're jealous but you act otherwise.” She teased which made his frown grow gloomier.
”I'm just jealous but not afraid that he could snatch you from me— you've fallen head over heels for me you said.”
”Huh? When did I say that?” Arching her brow, Lexi slightly tilted her head to the side as she recalled all their conversations in the past three months in a fraction of seconds. Alas, she could not remember saying that to him not even once.
”In the future, hehe. Perhaps, later or tomorrow? You don't know.” From frowning to grinning mischievously, Ethan Lu humored. ”Also, you don't have to say it— I know it in my heart because I can predict the future.” He added shamelessly which made her chuckle while shaking her head.
”Oh, love...” In between her soft chuckles, Lexi uttered casually. ”How can I believe your readings if they are not even accurate— hmm?” With that said note, Lexi slightly leaned forward and placed a soft kiss on his thin red lips. She added, ”I love you.”
”I am just being humble, I know you're one of my many fans.” It only took one kiss from her to wash away his concealed exhaustion. Not to mention, being with her in a day was more than a treat to Ethan Lu. After all, Lexi and Ethan Lu had been pretty busy since her school started. Also, the very same day she went to school, his grandfather, Edward Lu announced his retirement, placing Ethan Lu as the new head of the family because of the progress he had made in the Lu Corporation in a short amount of time that he had participated in the company affairs.
Therefore, Ethan Lu's workloads tripled in an instant. Not to mention, all the opposing individuals for declaring him as the new family head, because for them, his accomplishments were not enough of a basis to whether or not if he's a capable leader or not.
”Love, are you going to attend to my night?” Referring to his official take over in the whole Lu Corporation, Ethan Lu inquired after they exchanged short kisses to each other while staying in the same intimate position.
”Why? You don't want me to?”
”I do but it's also the same day of your product showcase.” In a matter of fact tone, Ethan Lu reminded her about her last showcase of the products she worked hard on— sacrificing several nights of sleep and hustling in the day.
In simple terms, her schedule was just as packed as his— Lexi's workload as well as her managing to attend classes, imply the skills she learned, keeping an eye on this renovation progress, and helping in the agency Abigail Fan and Lexi started.
