FMLRWS Chapter 606

He smiled faintly and said, “The company has taken on a lot of collaborations lately, so I’ve been quite busy and can’t accompany you for now.”

Luo Xi gently touched the bruise under his eyes. She frowned and said, “What’s the point of making so much money? We are not short of money.”

Thinking about what Yu Long said that day, she opened her mouth but ultimately didn’t ask.

Leng Minxing didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

At his level, there were some matters that couldn’t be resolved with money alone.

“Have you heard that Lin Xuan is getting engaged? To Feng Lingye of all people,” Luo Xi said helplessly.

Leng Minxing’s brows furrowed slightly. Although it was a small movement, Luo Xi still noticed it.

If it made him frown, it was certainly not good news.

Then she… should she take this opportunity to sabotage the wedding?

“I just found out not long ago. What’s wrong? Has she come to bother you again?” Leng Minxing asked in a low voice.

“Not really. She just bragged a little, but I don’t think Feng Lingye is as handsome as you, so she was showing off to the wrong person.” Luo Xi winked at him.

The girl’s playful expression lifted Leng Minxing’s gloomy mood. He reached out to gently tap the tip of her nose. “You have a good eye.”

Luo Xi smiled and nestled closer to his arms. This man really didn’t know what modesty was.

“By the way, do Grandpa and Grandma know about this?” Thinking about the two elders who had been away for over half a month, Luo Xi couldn’t help but frown.

“They know. They’ll be back on the day of the engagement,” Leng Minxing said with a deep look in his eyes.

Luo Xi nodded. “They must be happy to hear that Lin Xuan has such a formidable fiancé.”

“Happy?”

Leng Minxing suddenly let out a cold laugh.

Luo Xi looked at him in surprise. “What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?”

“No, you didn’t. If Lin Xuan found a formidable fiancé, they would indeed be happy.” If that person wasn’t Feng Lingye.

Leng Minxing turned his gaze toward the back garden, where Wang Yaru, Lin Xuan, and Bai Yaya stood, their eyes glinting with cold light.

Luo Xi didn’t notice his expression, thinking it was just the lingering resentment from their previous encounter at the auction that made him react this way.

With this thought, she didn’t want to press further but instead said, “Wang Yaru isn’t planning to take charge of the engagement preparations this time. She wants me to handle it instead. Do you think she’s genuinely trying to make things difficult for me, or does she have some other motive?”

Luo Xi asked suspiciously.

Upon hearing this, Leng Minxing frowned. “No matter what, you should be cautious. Don’t trust anyone in this old residence. I’ll have Anan handle other matters. When you go out, make sure Anan is with you, alright?”

Seeing his serious expression, Luo Xi didn’t dare to be careless and nodded repeatedly. “I understand. I’ll be as careful as I can and won’t cause you any trouble!”

Leng Minxing’s heart softened. She was always so obedient, which made people feel distressed. “I’m not worried about you causing trouble for me, I’m just worried about your safety. Xixi, your safety is more important than anything else…”

Hearing this, Luo Xi felt a bit teary-eyed and nodded. “I know. You need to be careful too and not trust anyone, except me of course, and… Anan and the others. Just make sure to protect yourself and don’t take care of me for everything. After all, you’re the one going out every day,” she reminded him.

“Okay…”
