This is too bullying. Blood type, constellation, height and hobbies are all right, but every word he says is slandering her!
Nina glares at him, "Lucien, don't push me too far!"
Lucien ignores her anger. He takes out a pen and a piece of paper from the sundries box, and then throws them to her: "Write my Chinese name 20 times!"
"No!" Nina is on the verge of blurting it out. Turning around, she sees the stubble on his chin that wasn't shaved in time and the bloodshot eyes for staying up late. Her heart softens again.
Forget it! For the sake of his special trip back to accompany her to see a movie, just suck it up!
Nina is holding a pen and paper, and is writing one word after another. She suddenly feels very warm in her heart.
After writing his Chinese name 20 times, Nina peeks at Lucien. He is concentrating on the road surface. His profile is very handsome, with clear outline. The lines of his jaw are also firm and powerful. He is so handsome that her heart beats faster.
Nina chuckles and slowly writes 20 "Lucien" on the paper.
After that, Nina smilingly hands the paper to Lucien, "Mr. Gray, please check."
Lucien glances at it casually, but when he sees the twenty English names, a smile comes into his eyes.
He leans over and gently bites her on the nose, "Flatterer!"
"Hey, are you a dog? Why do you always like biting?" Nina touches her nose and stares at him. Fortunately, her nose is real. If she's had plastic surgery on her nose, it will be deformed by him.
"Lean on me and stay close." President Gray's giving orders again.
"What a bossy man!" Nina murmurs, but she obediently snuggles up to him.
Lucien drives attentively, and he can't help laughing, with a good-looking curve at the corner of his mouth.
In a sweet silence, only the rustle of wheels and drizzle can be heard. Seeing that they are going to enter the uptown, Nina finally asks, "What happened? Does Jasmine's father begin to get revenge?"
Lucien raises his eyebrows, "It's no a big deal. There are some problems in the final acceptance stage of a building on approval. You don't have to worry. I can deal with it well."
Nina has also heard of the building, which is in the best part of Hartford. The Gray Group has invested a lot of money on it to build the landmark building of Hartford.
The previous acceptance tests have all passed, but there is a problem at the last minute. Someone must be making trouble on purpose!
Nina is very worried and can't help blurting out, "Lucien, you must be more careful in Hartford!"
Lucien glances at her, "Don't worry, I am going to do something about it. You don't have to worry about these things. You can study the sexy underclothes in the closet at home and treat me well when I come back."
What does this have to do with the sexy underclothes? Nina gives him a supercilious look. She is about to speak when the car stops downstairs.
Lucien raises his wrist and haves a look at his watch, and then he gives her a quick kiss on the lips, "We're running out of time. I'll watch you go upstairs."
Nina knows that he is going to catch the plane. She doesn't say anything, and hurries to get out of the car. Then she stands at the door of the building and waves to him to say goodbye.
Lucien beckons to her from the window. Nina doesn't know the reason, and she walks over to him. Lucien sticks his head out of the window and kisses her.
Nina is holding an umbrella. The cold rainwater falls on her face from the eaves of the umbrella and slides into her neck. This kiss makes her feel a little sentimental.
After returning home, Nina sits on the sofa in wet clothes for a long time, and then she stands up reluctantly, ready to go to the bathroom for a hot bath.
Lucien's last kiss somehow makes her a little sad.
He must be working very hard. The headquarters of the Gray Group are in Chicago. There are not many people here to help him.
If Aldrich's determined to block the Gray Group, he will have many ways to torment Lucien. Thinking of the stubble on Lucien's chin, Nina is in a bad mood. However, she is just a civilian, and she has no power. Even if she wants to help, there is nothing she can do.
Nina just takes off her clothes, and the cell phone rings on the table outside.
It must be Lucien. There are not many people who know her mobile number. Nina wraps herself in a bath towel and rushes to pick up the phone, "Hello, Lucien! Have you arrived at the airport?"
The person at the other end of the phone keeps silent all the time. Nina thinks something is wrong. She quickly looks at the caller ID on the mobile phone screen.
Oops. It's an unknown phone number, not Lucien.
"Hey, hello~" Nina is a little embarrassed, and she quickly changes her tone.
There is a trembling voice on the other end of the line, "Nina, I'm Jasmine."
Jasmine? Her hand grips the phone and she can't help tightening it.
Jasmine doesn't wait for her answer, and her voice breaks into a sob, "Nina, you're in a relationship with Lucien, aren't you? I heard you shouting his name just now."
Nina is ready to be harassed or even insulted by Jasmine. As long as Jasmine is rude to her, she will fight back hard! However, Jasmine cries so pitifully that she doesn't know what to say.
"Jasmine, I'm sorry. I..."
She really doesn't know what to say. Sorry, I rob your boyfriend? Sorry, your boyfriend loves me?
It doesn't seem right to say anything.
"Nina, don't be sorry. I didn't know the entanglement between Lucien and you. I didn't know you two have an memorable past until the wedding day when he held you." Jasmine is choked and can hardly speak, "Nina, would you please be reasonable? Although you had been in a relationship with Lucien, I am the girlfriend of Lucien now! I beg you, would you please return Lucien to me... I really can't live without Lucien..."
Nina is very confused. Did Jasmine really not put the snake in there that day? She is now crying so hard and imploring so earnestly. It is clearly that she is a little woman who is madly for love, not an ill-disposed and cruel woman.
Has she really wronged Jasmine? Jasmine certainly is not disguising, otherwise in her identity and family background, it's impossible for her to humbly implore.
Nina's mind is in a whirl, and her mind goes blank. She listens to Jasmine's voice on the phone and doesn't know how to respond.
On the other end of the phone, Jasmine desperately resists the humiliation in her heart. She gnashes her teeth with anger and cries, "Nina, you don't know that I... I've had three abortions for Lucien... I give up everything for him. I can't lose him..."
This short sentence, as if a bolt from the blue, makes Nina speechless.
