Chapter 143: 143. After all, I used to be blind

He stood up, walked over to Qiao Xu, and leaned down to look at her. His deep eyes held an unreadable glint as they locked onto Qiao Xu’s guarded gaze, "Ill-intentioned?"

Qiao Xu didn’t want to be too close to him. As he leaned down, she moved her body back a bit to put some distance between them.

Seeing the extra space on the sofa, Lu Moqing gave a low chuckle and immediately sat down, "So eager to give up your seat for me?"

Qiao Xu: "..."

"You guessed right, I do have ulterior motives."

He leaned closer to Qiao Xu again. She tried to move away, but there was no more space for her to retreat, as she was already close to the wall.

All she could do was knit her brows and gaze coldly at the teasing smile in Lu Moqing’s eyes.

Seeing the wariness in Qiao Xu’s beautiful, clear eyes, Lu Moqing laughed and said, "By collaborating with Zhuo Rui, I would have a chance to get closer to my wife and dissuade you from divorcing. Isn’t that right?"

He raised his hand to play with Qiao Xu’s hair dangling by her ear. His deep voice, tinged with a hoarse sexiness, softened hearts just by listening to it.

Qiao Xu was amused by his words, but the wariness deep in her eyes didn’t budge. Her eyes remained clear and alert.

"Then I really can’t cooperate with President Lu. If one day I lose my mind and decide not to divorce, wouldn’t I just be pushing myself into the fire again?"

Without denying anything, Qiao Xu directly addressed Lu Moqing’s words, catching him by surprise for a moment.

Lu Moqing realized he enjoyed interacting with Qiao Xu like this. Even if they argued in their conversation, he felt like they were getting closer than they had been in the three years of their marriage.

He leaned in close to her ear and chuckled. His lips were so close to her ear that the heat of his laughter brushed against it, making her body involuntarily soften.

"Why do you have so little confidence in yourself?"

Lu Moqing’s expression darkened slightly.

Qiao Xu casually shrugged her shoulders, "I can’t help it. After all, I was born with poor eyesight; otherwise, I wouldn’t have chosen you in the first place."

Lu Moqing: "..."

He really wanted to slap her!

After staring coldly at Qiao Xu for a while, he suddenly laughed. He moved even closer to her and said, "What should I do? I find my wife even more eloquent now, and I’m even more reluctant to divorce."

His lips were nearly touching her face as he spoke, moving against her cheek unintentionally, making her feel uncomfortable and her heart race.

Qiao Xu really wanted to slap Lu Moqing’s face. Taking a deep breath, she pushed him away forcefully.

She tried to maintain her composure as she stood up from the sofa, "President Lu, if you have time to flirt, I don’t have time to entertain you. If you’re feeling frisky, should I call someone for you?"

Lu Moqing didn’t get angry, and just leaned lazily on the sofa, smiling at Qiao Xu’s slightly angry face, "No one can compare to you."

Qiao Xu couldn’t help but roll her eyes mentally once more.

She couldn’t understand why Lu Moqing would go so far as to wait for her outside the company and play this little game with her.

She didn’t believe that it was purely for the sake of discussing cooperation.

With such a massive financial group like the Lu’s, many people would gladly cooperate. Even after being rejected by her, there was no way the mighty President would personally come to discuss collaboration.
