Shi Guang waited for a long time before Lu Yanchen came down.

He was wearing a thin white t-shirt as the morning rays shone down on his soft bed hair, causing him to seem as though he was illuminating with a brilliant radiance, embellishing his features even further.

Shi Guang bit down on her lips. For some reason, she felt her heart skip a beat moments earlier. Anyway, she hurriedly erased her awkwardness and put on a bright smile.

Walking over slowly, he sat down at the table unhurriedly, and Shi Guang served the food to his face immediately just like a waitress in a restaurant.

It was really quiet during breakfast. Shi Guang did not even dare to chew too loudly on her food for fear of disturbing Lu Yanchen beside her, neither did she dare to look at him too much, afraid that her expression might reveal her intents.

When she noticed that he was about done, she found an opportunity to speak up while smiling at him, “Was the breakfast good?”

Her voice was sweet as she dragged out her last word particularly long, leaving a sweet aftertaste as though one had just eaten chocolate. Lu Yanchen let out a rarely seen stumped expression as if he would have never imagined that she would speak to him in this manner.

He caught himself back immediately and went back to his usual cold aloofness. “Yes.”

Shi Guang’s eyes were all curved in smiles as her gentle voice floated. “If you think that it’s really good, you can always just call for me to make you breakfast! Not just breakfast… lunch and dinner too!”

As long as you’re willing to act with me.

Lu Yanchen’s eyes flashed with a trace of suspicion. “…”

Meanwhile, Shi Guang looked at him hopefully. “…”

For her to prepare this breakfast for him, there must definitely be a reason behind it. Anyone who knew how to converse would definitely know that he was supposed to follow and ask up what was the catch.

However, Lu Yanchen merely looked at her and said nothing at all.

EH!

This guy was REALLY the Terminator of conversations!

For a moment, Shi Guang did not know how to continue anymore as she had no choice but to eat her own breakfast. After a while, she asked again, “Are you busy recently?”

… If you’re not, come with me to visit my grandma?

But, who knew that he would actually reply, “Busy.”

Shi Guang had no other choice but to keep going on. “With?”

“Reading about the planning details of a couple of movies.”

“You’re going to make a movie?” Shi Guang was taken aback.

“Opening a movie production company,” He paused for a moment before continuing, “Chu Mubei will be managing it. I’m investing.”

“Indeed, movies are quite good at earning money these days…” Shi Guang pondered—his family was willing to let him manage it?

Even though she did not have any interactions with Father Lu, she had always thought that Lu Yanchen would end up going into politics. Given his foresight and smarts, it would be such a waste for him to not enter politics.

Lu Yanchen put down his chopsticks, ending the meal. Seeing that, Shi Guang immediately put her chopsticks down as well. “You’re done?”

“Yes.” He stood up and replied with that single cold word, ready to leave.

“H-Hold on!” Shi Guang yelled and chased after him. This time around, she was not going to beat around the bush anymore, worried that she might not get a chance to ask anymore should he leave. “Could you come with me to visit grandma?”

Other than that day when grandma had awoken, he had not been going over for the past 2 days. Even her friend—Li Fangfei—and Huo Zhan had been over to visit her a couple of times.

No wonder she would ask where Little Chen was.

Lu Yanchen’s hands were stuffed in his pockets as he turned his head and looked at Shi Guang with his side view. She was looking at him straight with pleading eyes, looking like the way Little Goody would look for food when it was hungry.

Seeing how Lu Yanchen was not saying anything, Shi Guang could only plead out further softly, “I haven’t told grandma anything about us breaking up. That’s why grandma said that she wanted to see us get married the other day. And, because you haven’t been over to visit her for the past couple of days, she… I… C-could you pretend to be my boyfriend for the time being?”
