Drunk on Marriage, Billionaire's Overindulgent Love-Chapter 836 - 323: [Heartbroken Fairy Tale] The Whale That Became a Lonely Island (Part 4)_2
When the man’s large hand was about to touch the tip of her nose, Lin Chu took a few steps back and lazily sat on the sofa.
She casually picked up the glass on the table. The honey water hadn’t cooled yet, and she sipped it leisurely.
"We’re still arguing. Don’t think that just because I’m drunk and out of my mind, I’ll forgive you. You think you can take advantage of me without apologizing?"
Because she had just come out of the bathroom, the girl’s cheeks still carried a charming blush. Her apricot eyes were moist, and she was only wrapped in a towel, looking utterly tempting.
Lu Huai’an suddenly felt that Lin Chu’s prideful demeanor seemed more pleasing to the eye.
He hadn’t intended to, but since she was unwilling, it was another matter.
He took long strides, step by step approaching the sofa, looking at Lin Chu nestled in the corner with a half-smile.
His thin lips parted gently, stating leisurely.
"Your dad has work to deal with after dinner, and it’s now 7:55. Your housekeeper will come knocking in at most five minutes. It’s just changing clothes; you’ll be done quickly. You still have three minutes to waste."
The message was clear.
Lin Chu couldn’t continue drinking the honey water. The thought of undressing in front of him at this moment felt indescribably awkward.
Clearly, it was her room, but in the end, it was she who sheepishly hid in the bathroom.
After changing her clothes, Lin Chu didn’t even glance at Lu Huai’an, opened the door, and walked out.
The hallway on the second floor was quiet. She could clearly hear the man’s footsteps behind her getting closer and closer, each step steady and strong.
As they passed the study, her left hand was held by the man’s warm, large hand, which made her stop breathing unconsciously.
Then she suddenly realized and shook it off.
Her expression turned indifferent. "Please keep your distance from me. After dinner, please leave on your own. I want to spend more time with my dad. You can go wherever you want."
Don’t think she has no temper.
Lu Huai’an didn’t mind, his sharply defined features remained calm as usual. "Let’s eat first."
...
When Lin Zongjun saw the two coming down from the second floor hand in hand, there was a gentle hint of a smile behind his glasses.
Even though the company’s situation was uncertain, his main concern was nothing more than his daughter’s happiness.
Unlike the Lu Family, in the Lin Family, they chat during meals.
Lin Zongjun placed a piece of rib into Lu Huai’an’s bowl and then did the same for Lin Chu, asking, "Xiao Chu, aren’t the juniors at your school starting their internships now? When do you plan to join the company?"
He only had one daughter, and one day the Lin Family would be handed over to Lin Chu.
Originally, Lin Zongjun wanted his daughter to be free for a little while longer, but his health was deteriorating day by day, and his daughter still had a child’s nature. If she didn’t enter society soon, what if something happened to him one day...
Lin Chu was about to step on the man next to her, but when called by name, she retracted the foot hanging in the air.
She was somewhat reluctant because the small gesture went unfinished, but she knew that Lin Zongjun was discussing serious matters and didn’t try to dodge with jokes.
She answered seriously, "Probably in the next couple of weeks. As long as I fill out the internship information and submit it to the school, I can start."
She had no siblings and enjoyed her father’s love all by herself. Therefore, it’s only natural that the responsibility for the Lin Family also rested solely on her.
Lu Huai’an put down his chopsticks and said, "Dad, let Xiao Chu follow me."
Lin Zongjun looked at him, clearly a bit surprised. "To the Lu Family?"
After all, they were a family, so it wasn’t impossible. "Xiao Chu doesn’t know anything and needs to be taught from the beginning."
Lin Chu’s school grades were top-notch, but all the knowledge from the books was just theory. She had no experience, as blank as a sheet of paper. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
Seemingly sensing the girl’s gaze, Lu Huai’an didn’t look at her but held her hand resting on her thigh.
His voice was deep. "She’s smart and doesn’t need me to repeat over and over. Plus, if she interns at the Lu Family, we’ll have more time to be together every day."
Hearing this, Lin Chu’s heartbeat seemed to pause for a few seconds.
What was he saying?
Didn’t he always find her clingy and unreasonable?
Lin Zongjun nodded, eyes filled with relief and approval. "That’s good too. You’re always busy at work, and if Xiao Chu is at the Lin Family, even if you live together, you might not have time to talk."
Looking at his dazed daughter on the side, he couldn’t help but feel amused, gently reminding her, "Learn well with Huai’an. No slacking. Daddy will check on you from time to time."
