Billionaire's First Doting Marriage

Chapter 2402 - 543: Playing Chess at Midnight

Looking up, she saw Ah Du watching Lu Yinxing with great interest.Lu Yinxing noticed that Ah Du had only eaten half of his noodles.

Lu Yinxing felt a bit embarrassed: "Am I eating too poorly?"

Ah Du quickly said: "Not at all, you look great while eating, just not quite what I imagined."

Indeed, Lu Yinxing ate aggressively but not in a way that was unpleasant, not like she was gobbling down food.

Even though she ate quickly, it could only be described as swift and unpretentious, maintaining a dignified manner in every move.

Moreover, she looked grateful while eating, and when she puffed her cheeks, she resembled a little squirrel, which was quite adorable.

Lu Yinxing couldn’t tell if this was a compliment or a slight.

But Lu Yinxing didn’t mind much, she smiled: "Thank you, Senior, for treating me today."

Ah Du said: "It’s hardly a treat, next time I’ll treat you to a seafood feast, you must come."

Lu Yinxing laughed: "Then thank you in advance, Senior, I love seafood."

Ah Du said: "I’m not joking, my home is by the sea. In a few days, there’s a sea harvest festival back home, it’s a yearly celebration. A hundred-meter-long table with all kinds of seafood to feast on. Want to come play?"

Lu Yinxing casually said: "I haven’t experienced such a grand occasion; I’ll definitely check it out when I get the chance."

Ah Du said: "I’ll let you know when the time comes."

Actually, Lu Yinxing didn’t pay much mind to this matter.

After dinner, Lu Yinxing bid farewell to Ah Du.

Ah Du wanted to see her home, but Lu Yinxing refused.

She lived quite close to the city center.

It would only take about ten minutes on foot.

But by the time Lu Yinxing got home, it was already quite late.

Lu Yinxing checked the time, it was already nine o’clock at night.

She thought perhaps Xia Ye was already asleep.

Lu Yinxing felt inexplicably complex emotions, but upon thinking, she felt a little guilty.

Xia Ye had called her several times today.

He must have been worried about her.

Lu Yinxing walked towards the villa.

She looked in the direction of Xia Ye’s room.

She saw that the light in Xia Ye’s room was off.

Could Xia Ye really be asleep?

But when she turned her head.

The light in the study was unexpectedly on.

Xia Ye wasn’t asleep; what was he doing in the study so late?

Was he waiting for her?

A sudden warmth blossomed in Lu Yinxing’s heart.

Xia Ye did have such a habit.

She couldn’t pinpoint exactly when it started.

Whenever Lu Yinxing returned late, even someone as sleep-loving as him would always wait until she was home.

Lu Yinxing hurried into the house, her steps up the stairs quickened towards the study.

But when Lu Yinxing reached the study door, she involuntarily paused.

The study door was wide open.

The room was brightly lit.

But inside the study, it wasn’t just Xia Ye.

Shen Fei Lin was there too, playing chess with Xia Ye.

They both seemed quite serious.

The gentle light fell on their profiles.

It was like a beautiful painting of Prince and Princess.

If it were someone else, they probably wouldn’t want to disturb this perfect moment.

Lu Yinxing was slightly taken aback, standing at the door.

The people inside quickly heard the sound at the door.

Both turned their gazes towards the doorway.
