Sweet Whirlwind Romance: Sir, Would You Like to Be My Partner-In-Marriage? novel Chapter 7

Tang Ruochu left the office with Song Anyi in the evening.

When they parted ways at the entrance of their office, Song Anyi looked at Tang Ruochu in concern before she left and said, "Ruochu, do you want to stay over at my place for a couple of days?"

She didn't feel comfortable letting Tang Ruochu head back home since Tang Ruochu and Gu Ruoruo lived together in the same house and they would see each other on a regular basis. Gu Ruoruo was such a nasty person that there was no telling when she would strike again.

Tang Ruochu knew what her friend was worried about and she felt touched by her friend's gesture.

"Thanks for the offer, Anyi. But I'll be able to handle her," she said.

She was not afraid of someone like Gu Ruoruo.

She had also promised Lu Shijin that she would move in with him, so she should go home to make preparations for the move.

"But..." Song Anyi protested. However, she sighed when she saw the determination etched on Tang Ruochu's face and said, "All right, I won't force this issue since you've already made up your mind. Do remember to call me at the first instance if you need help, understand?"

...

"Yes," Tang Ruochu said.

"I'll get going. Get home safe," Song Anyi said.

"Yes, you too," Tang Ruochu replied.

Tang Ruochu didn't stay any longer after she parted ways with Song Anyi and turned to head home.

She had just taken a few steps when a luxurious high-end Maybach suddenly drove up from behind and came to a stop beside her.

The door opened. Mu Ling stepped out of the driver's seat and said respectfully, "Madam, Mr. Lu has invited you to join him in the car."

Tang Ruochu paused for a moment and turned to look in the direction that Mu Ling was pointing.

Then she saw Lu Shijin elegantly lounging against the backseat. As he looked at her through the car window, his expression seemed languid and relaxed.

Tang Ruochu nodded and got in the car. She sat beside Lu Shijin and there was a hint of confusion in her eyes as she asked, "Didn't you leave earlier?"

He had appeared at the Times Entertainment office without a word of warning an hour earlier and left soon after.

She assumed that he had left some time ago, so she was surprised to see him here.

"No, I was waiting for you," Lu Shijin said nonchalantly as he glanced at her. He sounded as though he had been waiting for some time.

...

Tang Ruochu was extremely surprised.

Had the noble Mr. Lu humbled himself to wait for her?
