Chapter 130 - Failed To Get A Closer Look
While Lu Xun stepped away for a while, Song Xing Xing took the chance to look around the house. It was a two-story villa with a large garden outside. Song Xing Xing stood beside the window to enjoy the scenery outside.
"Breakfast is ready."
Song Xing Xing turned around and saw that Lu Xun was standing behind her. "Oh." Turning around, she followed Lu Xun towards the dining area. The smell of good food wafted to her nose, making her stomach grumbled. Her eyes widened in surprise at the low noise. She looked around in panic and was relieved upon finding that no one seemed to notice what had happened.
Of course, Lu Xun heard the noise as he was only standing beside her. However, he chose to pretend that he did not hear anything. At this time, he finally confirmed that Song Xing Xing was definitely a foodie.
"Miss Song, have a seat," Auntie Wei spoke when she saw the two of them walked into the room. As she continued to look at the girl, Auntie Wei was unable to stop the smile on her face.
Ever since she had started working for President Lu, Auntie Wei had never seen him bringing back any girl home. She was aware that as an employee she should not be nosy. However, after working for President Lu for a long time, Auntie Wei thought that her boss is a nice person. It was too bad for someone like him to stay single.
This time, President Lu had invited a young lady over to his residence. Auntie Wei thought that this is a joyous occasion and had prepared a lot of food for them.
Song Xing Xing sat down and took a bite at the steamed meat bun that Lu Xun had often brought for her. A soft sigh escaped her as a soft and fluffy bun entered her mouth. The taste was just as she remembered.
Auntie Wei is definitely good at cooking. It would be good if she could kidnap Auntie Wei and bring her home. Then, wouldn't she get to eat delicious food as well?
A serving of steamed egg appeared in front of her. Song Xing Xing put a spoonful of the silky eggs and sighed as they slowly melted in her mouth. The crab meat in the steamed eggs were a great surprise. When a serving of porridge suddenly appeared in front of her, Song Xing Xing finally looked up.
Seeing the teasing smile on Lu Xun's face made her embarrassed. It was then that she realized that Lu Xun has not eaten anything as he was busy putting more food in front of her.
"You… Why don't you eat as well?" Song Xing Xing scolded herself inwardly at his ability to forget everything around her when there was food in front of her.
"I got the chance to taste Auntie Wei's cooking every day," Lu Xun said. He clipped some pickles and place them into her bowl. "You should eat more."
Seeing that Lu Xun finally picked up his chopsticks and began to eat, Song Xing Xing was finally able to eat without worrying much.
The food on the table was quickly cleared. Song Xing Xing patted her tummy and looked at the empty plates and bowl in front of her. For a while, she was unable to believe that she had finished everything.
"Go to the living room and watch the TV for a while," Lu Xun said. "I still have a few phone calls to make. Later, I will take you home."
"Oh." Song Xing Xing went to the living room, turned on the TV, and started to go through a few channels. Seeing that there was nothing that could interest her, Song Xing Xing took out her phone and saw a message from Liu Yu Sheng.
"Xing Xing, the agency has already cleared the rumors about Huo Yun Chen."
With that, Liu Yu Sheng had sent her a link.
Song Xing Xing clicked on the link and saw the statement that the PR Agency had made.
According to the agency, the girls ran into Huo Yun Chen at the club. They were his fans and decided to talk to him for a while. During the time, Huo Yun Chen was not the only person present at the club. At that time, a few production team members were also presented.
With the help of the authorities, Huo Yun Chen was able to locate the girls and clarified that they were not underage.
The girls finally posted the clarification on their social media pages. According to the girls, they wanted to clarify the situation when the rumor first came out. However, they were afraid that the netizen was going to speak ill about them and decided not to say a thing.
Song Xing Xing went online and heaved a breath of relief upon noticing that the public opinion towards Huo Yun Chen was positive.
After reading a few comments online, Song Xing Xing decided to text Huo Yun Chen and asked about this matter. Once she had clicked the sent button, Song Xing Xing logged into the game.
It was still early and there were not a lot of people online. Song Xing Xing decided to deal with a few easy quests and fight some monsters to level up.
As she was too focused on the game, Song Xing Xing began to notice the shadow looming behind her. She quickly stood up and held her phone to her chest.
"You surprised me. Why didn't you make a sound?" Song Xing Xing pouted as she watched Lu Xun. Her heartbeat accelerated and she had to take a few deep breaths to calm down.
"Sorry." Lu Xun lowered his gaze and pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose lightly. If one looked closely, one would be able to detect the hint of disappointment in his face.
Earlier, he heard the familiar background music from the game and knew that Song Xing Xing was playing games. He wanted to peek at her ID but failed to get a closer look.
Hiding his disappointment, Lu Xun then asked, "What are you doing?"
"Just playing some games." Song Xing Xing flashed an awkward smile and tried to hide the phone display. "Are you done with your work?"
"The discussion hasn't ended and it will take a while before it's done," Lu Xun said. "Wait for me a little while, alright? I'm sure that it will end soon. I am just waiting for a call from Assistant Bei Yuan."
It was not easy to make her come over to his place. Of course, Lu Xun was not going to let her leave this quick.
"How about going to the library first? You can read some books while waiting for me."
Seeing that Auntie Wei was still around cleaning up the house, Song Xing Xing finally agreed to follow him upstairs.
