Shen Xue couldn’t believe what he was hearing. Was this his sister-in-law’s plan to make Wang Zhuyi forget about his brother? To seduce the other woman and make her fall for her?

This wasn’t his original plan. He was initially hoping that Lu Xinyi would deal with it in a friendly way, not to flirt with Wang Zhuyi. However, as he looked at the other woman’s reaction at Lu Xinyi’s words, he knew that Wang Zhuyi had already fallen for Lu Xinyi’s charm.

Now, the only problem he had to deal with was how to hide this fact from the demon king?

Aside from him, only Assistant He knew about Lu Xinyi’s identity. He dearly hoped that his brother hadn’t found it yet, or else… Shen Xue grimaced at the thought.

“You are not in any way related to Lu Xinyi, right?” CEO Wang asked, making Shen Xue broke into a cold sweat. What was wrong with this old man?!

The old man scrutinized Lu Xinyi’s face. The youthfulness and the charm of this young man weren’t losses to her. As Lu Feiran smiled back languidly at him, a sudden coldness ran on his body. What was supposed to mean?

CEO Wang sighed. “Forget it. Zhu’er must be right. It’s impossible that you are related to that woman.”

“Hmm… indeed my surname is very common. I hope CEO Wang wouldn’t mind my presence here.” Lu Feiran looked completely evil, and Shen Xue was cursing inwardly as he watched his sister-in-law smile.

Fuck. She was indeed the demon king’s wife.

Shen Xue leaned closer and whispered to her. “Bro, calm yourself.”

Lu Xinyi tilted her head on his way. “Brother Xue is so good to me.”

“Well, would you be opposed to accompanying Miss Wang today? CEO Wang had requested my brother’s company, and yet he was stuck from meetings that need his immediate attention.” Shen Xue sighed dejectedly. “I’m sorry, Miss Wang.”

“Oh, no, Vice President Shen. Please don’t apologize. I don’t mind Brother Fei’s company today.”

The blush on her face was enough to let Shen Xue knew that she was smitten by the devil beside him.

“Well then,” She Xue passed the keys of his black Maybach to Lu Xinyi, “You can drive her around the city if you want.” Then in a low voice, he whispered, “Please be careful with my baby.”—he begged.

Lu Xinyi tried her best not to laugh. Ah, these Shen brothers would kill if something wrong happened to their babies.

Wang Zhuyi found herself nervous. When she first met President Shen, she had fallen in love and had long decided that she would marry no one but Shen Yi. She had insisted on meeting him personally after their first encounter but failed every time. She had long made up her mind to become Young Madam Shen.

After all, she was a Wang princess. Her family had good standing within the social circle, and no one would dare question them if she became Shen Yi’s woman. Other than President Shen, she wasn’t interested in anyone until now.

If she had fallen in love at first sight with President Shen, she had fallen for Brother Fei at love at first smile. The young man’s cool demeanor and bright smile were enough to make her heart skip a beat. When she looked up to meet his gaze, she knew she was done. His smile was like an arrow shooting straight right into her trap, and she felt helpless.

“I’m sorry for the trouble, Brother Fei,” she murmured as she followed Lu Feiran to the private elevator, leaving Shen Xue and her father to discuss business matters.

“It’s my honor to join you today.” Lu Feiran’s lips curved into a smile while made Wang Zhuyi aware of the butterflies fluttering in her stomach.

“Where do you want to go today?” Lu Xinyi asked. Shen Xue had also given her another black card to use and treat the woman beside her. Heh, at least Shen Xue had some sense that she wouldn’t spend even a single cent on this play he started.

Once they reached the lobby of the Shen Group, women started whispering to one another with flushed faces.

“Oh, my god. It’s already rare to see the king showing himself here, but who would have known I’ll see another male god today?”

“Wow, he’s so handsome. Isn’t he a friend of Second Master? I wonder what his name is. How come I’ve never seen him before?”

“I thought seeing President Shen and Second Master would make me immune to another man’s charm but…”

Despite having a thinner frame and shorter height, Lu Feiran was able to charm the women around him. Wang Zhuyi smiled bitterly as she heard what the others were saying. She gave Lu Feiran a side glance to check his features closely.

He didn’t bear the same sharpness and overwhelming masculinity that the Shen brothers had. Even his frame couldn’t compete with their well-built body. Lu Feiran was thin and slim, and yet his face refreshing to someone’s eyes. With his messy hair and silver earring on his left ear, Lu Feiran emitted a different kind of charisma that was different from what Wang Zhuyi encountered.

Then the women’s gaze set on the woman walking beside their new prince charming.

“Wang Zhuyi? Really? She couldn’t get President Shen’s attention so she was eyeing to sink her fangs at my prince?”

“How shameless she could be? She was persistent to meet President Shen, but he declined her invitation every time. Couldn’t she get what it means? Now, she has some nerve to stand beside him?”

“Ah, of course, she will have such a thick face. Yes, she’s indeed beautiful considering that she’s one of the five prettiest faces of the Capital City. I cannot wait for her to make a fool of herself.”

This wasn’t the first time people were talking bad about her, but it was still able to make herself feel bad about it. Her eyes stung with tears, but she tried to reign her emotions.

“Don’t mind what they are saying. Of all people, you should believe and respect yourself. If not, then who will stand up for you?”

Lu Feiran’s words were enough to calm the rage of a storm in her heart.

A moment later, Lu Feiran opened the door of the front passenger seat and let Wang Zhuyi inside.

“So where do you want to go first?” Lu Feiran asked as he started the car and left the Shen Group premises.

“Can we get something to eat?” Wang Zhuyi said. She was really excited and nervous to see President Shen that morning that she had forgotten to have her breakfast.

Lu Xinyi nodded. In Shen Xue’s panic, she also forgot to have her breakfast before leaving Lunar Residence.

“Alright, I know this place where we can eat good food. You don’t mind if I bring you to sidewalk stalls and common restaurants, right?”

Wang Zhuyi was taken aback and blinked twice. She had initially thought that Lu Feiran would bring her to another restaurant and turn her into a trophy girl clinging on his arm. She smiled at her foolish thoughts.

“As long as I wouldn’t get a stomachache later, I wouldn’t mind, Brother Fei.”

Lu Xinyi burst into laughter when he heard her response. It was the first time she was hanging out with a woman from a socialite family, and what more she’d just agreed to eat with her in a commoner’s dinner.

Seeing that she made her Brother Fei happy, Wang Zhuyi sneaked a peek on his face before returning her gaze on her lap. She was very curious about this young man. With his teenage looks and thin frame, could it be that he was still in high school?

“Relax, Miss Wang. I promised I will take care of you today, right?”

Wang Zhuyi laughed awkwardly. She’d never been this close with a man before, and her fluttering heart wasn’t making it easy for her to calm down.

“Brother Fei, if you don’t mind me asking, how old are you?”

Without taking her sight on the road, Lu Xinyi steered the wheel to the right leading to the downtown.

“Miss Wang, are you worried that I cannot drink with you? Don’t worry, I’m old enough to give you babies.”

If she wasn’t already red, Wang Zhuyi was sure she was red as a tomato now!

“But won’t your girlfriend get mad if you spend time with a stranger like me?”

Lu Xinyi thought what would be her husband’s reaction if he found out what she did today. Ahh, she made a mental note to message her about her change of plans today, or else he might storm off to Lunar Residence just to find her nowhere.

“I don’t have a girlfriend.” In reality, she had a husband. A scary one.

The woman’s mouth parted with an ‘O’. How could be a prince like him be single?
