Devil CEO and His Star Wife - C172

“Ding dong …” The automatic door opened.

Lin Sirou walked in from the outside and the warmth inside the convenience store was extremely contrasting with the cold wind outside. Lin Sirou wanted to absorb the warmth from the inside of the shop.

“Welcome.” Ji Chenxi smiled at Lin Sirou.

“Hey, Ji Chenxi.” Lin Sirou also smiled.

“Would you like some hot cocoa? I’ll treat you. ” Ji Chenxi asked.

But Lin Sirou still spoke with him. At least this meant that they were friends, not strangers.

“Alright!” Lin Sirou leaned on the counter.

Ji Chenxi will give Lin Sirou a bottle of warm cola.

Lin Sirou pulled the ring back and took a big gulp of it. After that, he smiled happily: “So warm!”

Lin Sirou’s face turned slightly red, this caused Ji Chenxi to be captivated, and his face unconsciously turned red as well. That was the sign that Ji Chenxi, who had already recovered his memories, had taken a liking to Lin Sirou.

“Thank you.” Lin Sirou could feel Ji Chenxi’s throbbing, but her heart was in a mess, and she didn’t know how to face him.

“No …” “You’re welcome.” Ji Chenxi turned his gaze from Lin Sirou and looked at the purchase order on the counter.

“You recovered your memory?” Lin Sirou asked somewhat hesitantly. Even though he really didn’t want to ask personally, it was really hard not to get rid of this knot right now.

“Yes.” Ji Chenxi did not deny it.

“When did it happen?” Lin Sirou.

Ji Chenxi laughed but did not speak, as though he did not want to talk too much about this, but this made Lin Sirou anxious.

“What are you planning?” Lin Sirou guessed that although she had already passed the age where one would dream about everyday, she couldn’t think of anything more to say other than herself.

“Ugh …” Ji Chenxi didn’t seem to know what to say either, so he gave a vague answer randomly.

“Or don’t you want to tell me?” Lin Sirou asked naturally, because Lin Sirou did not reject it. As long as it was true love, she would agree, after all, it was very difficult to meet true love.

“No, it’s …” Ji Chenxi finally said the real answer, but he still held back because in his heart, he was thinking, “I’ve never met you before.”

“Oh ~” Lin Sirou was skeptical, but asked honestly afterwards, “You aren’t trying to keep lying to me, are you?”

Ji Chenxi opened his eyes wide, he had already told Lin Sirou the answer, but he still denied it.

“No …” “No!”

Ji Chenxi stuttered to confirm, but she didn’t mind. After all, she didn’t hate people who liked her.

“Alright, but it’s still a good thing that you recovered your memories.” Lin Sirou did not want to make it difficult for Ji Chenxi to stand his ground, so luckily he did not break Ji Chenxi’s lie.

Actually, he was currently regretting it. If only he had the courage to explain everything to Lin Sirou, even if she doesn’t like him, as long as Lin Sirou understands his intentions, he would be satisfied.

Suddenly, Lin Sirou’s phone rang. Lin Sirou placed the hot cocoa on the counter and took out his phone from his bag, the screen saying “Lu Ze” displayed his phone. Fortunately, Lin Sirou had turned off his phone.

“Why not?” Ji Chenxi felt that Lin Sirou’s actions were weird.

“Nothing, just a freak.” Lin Sirou was unconcerned, towards a person who had nothing to say, there was no need to say anything.

Ji Chenxi did not ask any further. If Lin Sirou wanted to say it, she would say it.

What kind of bitterness would there be when he fell in love with a woman who did not even include him in their relationship?

Or could he only be friends with people he liked? What kind of mood did he have to be with her?

Ji Chenxi didn’t know, after all, he had never had such an experience.

Although this feeling was unbearable, Ji Chenxi did not want to give up this opportunity. After all, to him, being able to stay by Lin Sirou’s side was enough, because he did not want to have to worry about him.

Lu Ze sat in the study room, troubled by an investment case. His head throbbed, and his hands massaged his temples.

The door that was suddenly opened attracted Lu Ze’s attention, he put his hand down and closed the planning book.

Pushing open the door was a white-haired father. The wrinkles on his face, his slightly trembling hands, and his sluggish feet revealed his father’s age.

“Dad, is something the matter?” Lu Ze stood up and helped Lu Da to sit on the sofa.

“Is Lu Ze worried about the company?” Father Lu was very fond of his son, but he was unable to do anything as he aged year after year.

“Well, it’s an important case. It has to be carefully assessed.”

“The company is important, but your marriage is also very important! “You’re not young anymore. Do you have any girl you want to marry?” Father Lu and Mother Xia were very satisfied with their son, but since he was old, everything he thought about was instead filled with the expectation of a grandson.

“Nope.” To Lu Ze, there was only one person who would want to be together for his entire life, but it was an impossible chance, so he could not say it out loud.

“Don’t have too high an eye, as long as you can be frugal and maintain your family.” Father Lu had never heard of his son having a girlfriend before. He had mistakenly thought that Lu Ze had high expectations for him, and had never met anyone he was satisfied with.

“I know.” Other than saying this, the current Lu Ze no longer had anything that could respond to his father. After all, he knew that it was impossible between him and Lin Sirou.

“Think about it. Don’t get too worked up over business.” Father Lu patted Lu Ze’s shoulders.

“Okay, Dad, good night.”

Lu Ze sent his father out of his room, and then looked at the dark courtyard through the window. His heart was not thinking about the scenery he saw, but about the woman he loved.

Lin Sirou was once a carefree young miss who personally destroyed her many years ago.

Lu Ze wanted to take good care of her, but his anger had destroyed all of his rationality, and he had hurt Lin Sirou on the spur of the moment.

He hated his relationship with Lin Sirou because this relationship had blocked the possibility of a relationship between them being together. However, he was afraid that it would disappear and if he did not have this relationship with Lin Sirou, then they might not have met.

Being attracted by the beauty of the snow, Lu Ze was not satisfied with only being able to enjoy it. He wanted to completely possess the snow so he was fortunate to have the snow in his hands in his grasp, and when he opened his hands to look at the snow, he discovered that the snow had already melted into a droplet of water, then fell to the ground and disappeared. At this moment, Lu Ze only had regret and apology, but the snow was no longer there.

Lu Ze frowned, and took out a stack of cheques from the drawer. He wrote down the numbers and signed his name on the first cheque, then tore it off and placed it in the briefcase.

The wound could no longer be wiped away, the only thing he could do was to compensate her, the only thing was how cheap the money was. However, what Lu Ze did not know was that he would only make Lin Sirou hate him even more.

There were two men sitting facing each other in the office. The old man signed the documents and walked over to Lu Ze.

Lu Ze looked at it, and then closed the document satisfied. “Thank you, Uncle.”

“Your ability is recognized by everyone. I believe that you will be able to do the best.” Uncle Xie smiled, tugging at the lines at the corners of his eyes.

“I will not disappoint you.”

“Very good.”

“Hengruo, you should be talking about marriage now, right?” Uncle Xie pointed again.

“Uncle Xie, I want to focus on my work right now. I haven’t considered anything else.” Lu Ze answered tactfully.

“Your father often talked about your life at the gatherings of old friends. After all, your father is already old enough to want to carry his grandson, so you shouldn’t refuse his wish.”

“I know that.”

“Is there no one? My daughter doesn’t have someone she likes yet, so why don’t you come out young and meet her? It would be good for you to get to know her. ” Uncle Xie seemed to be eager to sell his daughter.

“But I feel …” Lu Ze still wanted to refuse.

“My daughter isn’t bad either. She obeyed me very much, so she didn’t have a partner.” Uncle Xie thought that Lu Ze thought that his daughter’s condition was bad and thus needed his father to recommend her with all his might.

“That’s not what I meant.”

“Your dad is inviting me to your house for dinner this Saturday. Why don’t I bring my daughter along as well so you can get to know each other better?” Uncle Xie was still reluctant to part.

“Alright!” Lu Ze knew that Uncle Xie had already colluded with his father long ago, but he still had to respect and respect his elders.

“Then it’s a deal.” Uncle Xie stood up.

Lu Ze also stood up, “I’ll send you off.”

“No need, you have a lot of work to do.” The smile on Uncle Xie’s face was obvious and undisguised.

“Then take care.”

“Alright, alright.”

Is there no one who cares about my feelings? Why do they always push these annoying things to me? I’ve had enough! Lu Ze shouted in his heart.

The person Lu Ze loved could not be with him, while the person he did not love would always stay by his side.

Why couldn’t he pursue true love? Because Lin Sirou was his sister, they were incest when they were together. But at least he truly loved Lin Sirou, and he was much better than those decent people. Those people had deceived others and also deceived themselves, but they were also praised by the crowd. Those people were not confused, but rather, they themselves were the sort of people that would embarrass themselves if they tore off the masks of others.

Ji Chenxi’s thoughts drifted towards Lin Sirou, missing her appearance and her smiling face, both beautiful and enchanting.
