The Villain and the Cannon Fodder’s Mother

Suddenly, he heard a loud cry coming from next to him. “OH!!”

Lu Xun, who was driving, fished out a jewelry box all of a sudden. Looking regretful, he said, “How did I forget this?”

He had brought this with him to profess his love after consulting Executive Assistant Zhou. Granted, the timing of him professing his love was probably not the best after all was said and done.

Lu Mingzhe was curious, “What’s in it?”

The box was so big that it didn’t look like it could be a ring.

If it really was a ring, then he wouldn’t even know what to say about his little uncle.

That being said, if his uncle was that proactive, none of these would have happened.

He would have done so within the first 50 chapters of this novel!

Lu Xun was quite proud of himself still. Hearing the question from Lu Mingzhe, he handed the box over to him. “Take a look. This was the best piece in the entire shop. I spent a fortune on it.”

Lu Mingzhe had already opened up the box while Lu Xun was still talking.

Lying quietly inside the box was – A dog!

Lu Mingzhe, “……”

A dog?

You were going to give a dog as a gift to a girl?

The girl just might beat you up as if you are a dog, alright?

“This is Khotan jade from Xinjiang. Its market price is several thousand yuan per gram. One this size is quite rare already. I had to pull some strings as the shop was going to sell this piece originally.”

Lu Xun, who was driving, did not pick up the weird vibe coming from his nephew. “Isn’t it said that giving jade as a gift means you treasure the person?”

Lu Mingzhe looked at the dog in his hand and found himself speechless.

Before he opened up the box, he figured that even if it wasn’t a ring inside of it, it would at least have been a bracelet, or even a necklace would work.

This was very unexpected!

“Do you feel that this is an appropriate gift?”

Lu Mingzhe looked at his little uncle with difficulty.

“Yeah. I think it’s quite good. And it will appreciate in value.”

Appreciate my @$$!

He almost cussed out loud.

The young man rubbed his temple and said to his little uncle very sincerely, “I think you should keep this until after you are married. Trust me.”

He had already bought it. Might as well keep it.

It would be alright for the purpose of appeasing someone.

Lu Mingzhe was somewhat relieved that his little uncle had forgotten about it. That was a bold move using this piece to profess his love!

Lu Xun, “……”

The next day, when Lin Yiyi arrived at the company, she was surrounded by gossipy looks.

Everybody was very curious about their boss’s romance, but they were relatively restrained. After all, the male lead in the scandal was Lu Xun, who had been punching in every day. Nobody was surprised by that at all.

Besides, it had taken the paparazzi so long to publish that. Whatever happened to their professionalism?

That was right. In everybody’s eyes, the two of them have been together day and day out. If that was not considered as being a couple, then one of them for sure was a scum!

Boss Lu finally stood up and clarified… er, admitted to it and everybody was pleased.

Lin Yiyi didn’t feel awkward about that at all.

To be precise, everybody had been looking at them with the same gossipy look since the very first time that Lu Xun went over there. After all that time, she had already gotten used to it.

Lin Yiyi didn’t feel anything odd about going through it all over again.
