Chapter 54 - "Cooperate with me by putting on the appearance of a loving wife. Start off by remembering to call me hubby." (6)

Elder Lu nodded his head in satisfaction. "Since both of you have agreed, then the matter is settled. I'll go meet with Qingqing's parents on another day. After that, we can discuss other wedding matters. Alright, it's been a tiring day for everyone. Go back to your rooms to rest or take a walk around the villa."

Ji Qingqing stood up. "I'll leave first then."

Elder Lu nodded with a smile.

Lu Lixing closely followed after her.

When they were walking passing by his room, Lu Lixing grabbed Ji Qingqing into his room.

It was bright inside his room. He could see that the heat on Ji Qingqing's face from Elder Lu’s words hadn't cooled. Both sides of her cheeks were dyed red.

Lu Lixing cornered her against the wall by the door. His hands kept her hedged in. Overlooking her panicked expression, he abruptly got closer to her and forcefully asked, "Are you willing to marry me?"

He was too close to her. The scent from Lu Lixing's shirt made Ji Qingqing's heart palpitate.

Damn it! Why did this manly scent have to smell so good?

Ji Qingqing strived her best to become unperturbed. "Of course. You're so rich. Of course I would be willing to marry you."

Lu Lixing smiled. "Yes, I'm rich. It's very logical of you to marry me for my money. I don't have any problems with that either. Since you're willing to marry me, shouldn't you change how you address me starting from today?"

"What do you want me to call you?"

"Wifey."

"..." She suddenly felt that Lu Lixing was so shameless, ah. Why did he like to call her wifey so much?

"What? Aren't we husband and wife?"

"... Yes."

"So what should you call me?"

Ji Qingqing looked at him with a conflicted expression. "Mr. Lu, do I have to call you that? We've only known each other for three days. We're not familiar with each other."

"The more you say it, the more familiar it'll become."

Hubby... Ji Qingqing tried out saying this in her mind. The more she thought about it, the more awkward she felt.

"Can we take this slower? How about I start off with calling you... Lixing?"

A displeased sound came from Lu Lixing's nose. "En?"

After Ji Qingqing mentally struggled between the two choices, she shook her head. She couldn't past that level in her heart. "No!"

Lu Lixing's eyes slightly sunk. "I know that you don't like me, but grandpa likes you a lot. I'm sure that you wouldn't want to hurt an old man's heart."

Ji Qingqing nodded. "Grandpa treats me very well. I wouldn't want to make him sad."

"Grandpa has taken care of me since I was a child and put forth a lot of mental and physical efforts in raising me. His only wish is to see me marry and have a happy family. Since you said to grandpa that you agree to marry me, I hope that you'll at least cooperate with me when we're at home to make grandpa happy, so he can find comfort in his old age."

After saying this, Lu Lixing added, "His health isn't good, and he's been working hard lately because I wasn't well. I really don't want anything to happen to him."

These words really spoke to Ji Qingqing's heart.

Elder Lu was very kind to her. She truly didn't want to disappoint and upset this kind old man.

"How do you want me to cooperate with you?"

Lu Lixing chuckled, and Ji Qingqing felt his warm breath on her ear. She trembled and covered her ears.

“Cooperate with me by putting on the appearance of a loving wife. Start off by remembering to call me hubby."

“I think saying Lixing sounds pretty good too, quite intimate."

"Hmm?"

Ji Qingqing's expression looked troubled as she falteringly said, "... Hubby." Just saying this word caused Ji Qingqing's heart to beat faster.
