I Only Care About Making Money And Not Love. I'm The Best Professional Simp!
Ch. 30 - The Wise Do Not Enter the River of Love; I Choose Foot Soaks and Massages

Lu Xing is a good person.

This was the final conclusion Wen Lingxiu reached after two years of observation.

When they first met at the mall, she was very grateful to Lu Xing for helping her soothe her child. But she hadn't expected that the next day, Nannan would be thinking about Lu Xing constantly, even saying that the big brother was gentle and handsome. 

Pestered beyond her limits, she could only return to the mall.

Watching Lu Xing gently coaxing the child, a thought suddenly appeared in Wen Lingxiu's mind—perhaps Nannan needed a father.

So, she hired Lu Xing. Or to put it more crudely...

She made Lu Xing her kept man. 

(TL: I reworded this sentence a little to introduce the term "Kept men" to make the verb "Keeping" more easy to understand, a kept man is similar but not the same as a "Sugar baby" in western culture.)

It's a bit funny to say.

A woman in her thirties, finally keeping a "little wolf dog", and it was just to be a father for Nannan. Nothing had ever happened between the two of them. 

(TL: "Little wolf dog" or 小狼狗 (xiǎo lánggǒu) is slang for a younger, handsome, and slightly aggressive male lover.)

A beautiful single mother and a young, virile little wolf dog, and their relationship was completely pure?

If word got out, no one would believe it.

But that was indeed the truth.

Originally, Wen Lingxiu thought she would maintain this state forever.

But–

Watching Lu Xing squatting by her feet, his head lowered, working seriously, ripples began to form in her heart.

Those long, powerful legs, that lean waist, that handsome face...

Lu Xing's goodness, Lu Xing's gentleness, along with threads of guilt, all rushed towards Wen Lingxiu!

Wen Lingxiu looked gently at Lu Xing and Nannan running and playing, and suddenly felt a little reluctant.

The contract she had with Lu Xing was signed until June.

It was already March, but the bond between Lu Xing and Nannan was growing deeper and deeper.

If this contract were to be terminated...

Then Nannan would be very, very sad... and she wouldn’t be much better either.

How can I keep Lu Xing from leaving?

Wen Lingxiu fell into deep thought.

"CEO Wen?"

Lu Xing felt that Auntie Wen's gaze today was a bit strange.

Wen Lingxiu came back to her senses, smiled at Lu Xing, and took off her apron after finishing the cooking.

She was wearing a white base layer underneath, which jiggled as she moved.

Lu Xing averted his gaze.

This Auntie Wen is so beautiful. It's a real pity for her husband that he died so young.

"Do you have a girlfriend?"

Wen Lingxiu suddenly asked, scaring Lu Xing so much that goosebumps popped up all over his body!

Holy f*ck!

What does Auntie Wen mean?

This woman isn't thinking of getting a freebie, is she?!

The thought of this possibility truly made Lu Xing anxious.

He could lose his life, but he couldn't lose his money!

So Lu Xing immediately said, "No! Absolutely not! I've never been in a relationship!"

This was the truth.

He had been a professional simp all this time. How could being a simp count as being in a relationship?

Wen Lingxiu was amused by Lu Xing's nervous reaction and smiled gently. 

"I was just asking. Don't be nervous. Go call Nannan for dinner."

Throughout the evening, Lu Xing kept pondering what Auntie Wen had meant by that question.

Why did she suddenly ask if he had a girlfriend?

So strange!

Even though he considered himself a professional simp, sometimes, he still couldn't figure out what these women were thinking.

Sigh, I still need to study more and improve.

Learn, there is no end to learning.

...

After dinner, they spent some more family time together in the spacious master bedroom.

Nannan was lying in the middle. 

Aunt Wen was lying on the right, and Lu Xing was leaning on the left, holding a storybook and starting to read.

"The little fox said to the little white rabbit..."

Nannan had run around a lot at kindergarten today, so Lu Xing had only read half the story before she quickly fell fast asleep.

Seeing Nannan sound asleep, Lu Xing lowered his voice and said to Auntie Wen.

"CEO Wen, I'll head out first?"

Wen Lingxiu lay flat on the bed, her soft long hair falling on her chest. She didn't speak, but her eyes showed no signs of sleepiness.

Seeing this, Lu Xing asked caringly, "CEO Wen, are your legs uncomfortable? Do you need a foot soak?"

It's like that theory some people have.

Some things you don't have to do, but you have to show the attitude.

He was just asking casually out of his "customer-first" professionalism. Anyway, Wen Lingxiu wouldn't agree.

"Okay."

Wen Lingxiu propped her head up with her hand, her hair spilling onto the pillow. 

She nodded lightly at Lu Xing, her eyes smiling gently.

Lu Xing: ???

Huh?!

No! Auntie Wen!

I was really just asking casually! I wasn't prepared for this!

For the first time, Lu Xing's mind went completely blank, not knowing what to do.

He had been with Auntie Wen for so long. Sometimes when he saw she was too tired, he would ask if she wanted a massage, but Wen Lingxiu would always politely decline.

What kind of madness has possessed Auntie Wen today! Why did she suddenly agree!

Lu Xing was dumbfounded.

But Wen Lingxiu kept looking at him, so he could only grit his molars and go prepare the water and essential oils.

Damn it!

This group of women is really playing less and less by the book. He has to run away soon, or he won't be able to handle it!

In the living room

The warm yellow light spilled down. Wen Lingxiu sat on the waterproof leather sofa, a little flustered.

She didn't know why she had agreed on a whim either.

And now look.

Is Lu Xing really going to wash and massage her feet?

Will Lu Xing think she's humiliating him? Is it still possible to stop now?

Women are prone to overthinking, their minds full of thoughts.

Lu Xing took out a new white towel and walked to Wen Lingxiu with a serious expression.

"Technician number eighteen at your service! Remember to give me a five-star review, 'kay!"

Pfft–

Wen Lingxiu's nervousness was swept away. She looked at Lu Xing with gentle eyes.

"That depends on whether technician number eighteen works hard or not."

Lu Xing curled his lips.

"Hard! Definitely hard! I have the most strength!"

Wen Lingxiu was too embarrassed to speak.

Lu Xing didn't dally either. He squatted in front of her and began.

He lowered his head, his gaze serious, and held Wen Lingxiu's two fair and beautiful feet, immersing them in the warm water.

"CEO Wen, is the water temperature suitable?"

Wen Lingxiu was too comfortable to speak, only letting out a lazy "mm".

With this feedback, Lu Xing felt that his technique hadn't weakened, and he instantly became confident.

As a professional simp, having a skill is very important.

Lu Xing gently lifted one of Wen Lingxiu's tender, white, and slender feet and began to press on the acupuncture points he had learned.

"Mmm... ugh..."

Wen Lingxiu let out a muffled groan of pain.

Lu Xing firmly gripped her ankle, which was trying to retreat in fear, and forced it back into the water, saying very seriously.

"CEO Wen, if these acupuncture points hurt when pressed, it means there's a problem with your body. You need to pay more attention."

"You can't stand for long in high heels. If you stand for too long, your legs will swell up, and it's very uncomfortable."

"Also, you should be able to buy those invisible anti-chafe pads online. It's best to put those on when you wear high heels."

"Let me massage it a bit more for you, it'll make you more comfortable. Those stiletto heels are really not meant for people to wear..."

The warm yellow light, the familiar home, the comfortable feeling, the nagging...

A word was forming in her mind slowly...

Lover?

Lover!

When the word "lover" appeared in Wen Lingxiu's mind, she abruptly opened her eyes!

Lover?!

It was as if something was about to break through the clouds and see the light!

Wen Lingxiu's heart trembled violently. She inconspicuously lowered her head to glance at Lu Xing, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

Yes.

Lover.

Only a lover wouldn't leave just because a contract ends.

Lu Xing's nagging instructions continued, but Wen Lingxiu's mind was focused on one thing.

A two-year observation period.

It was long enough.

Wen Lingxiu curled her lips and reached out a hand to stroke Lu Xing's fluffy head.

Lu Xing looked up at her, dazed. "CEO Wen?"

Wen Lingxiu let out a low laugh.

She had found a solution.
