My Secretary is a Little Sweet

Lou Ziling listened to her crisp and tender voice and looked at her beautiful and childish face. Suddenly, she was speechless.
Yes, she actually knew everything. She was so smart, how could she not know his intention of getting close to her!
She knew exactly what he meant by coming to see her again today.
She was willing to be used by him!
Lou Ziling felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. An inexplicable emotion overflowed from the bottom of his heart, and he did not dare to look into Jing Xiâs clear eyes.
He turned his head and was silent for a long time before he said in a low voice,ââThere will be many people using you in the future. Remember to be clear about it.â
Jing Xi looked at Lou Zilingâs handsome and perfect side profile and said in a low voice,ââYes, itâs because Iâm useful that people keep looking for me. If Iâm useless, if my surname wasnât Jing, you wouldnât even look at me. I have to thank my father. Heâs a successful man who has brought his daughter status and glory that others canât even hope to achieve. I know that youâre bowing down to me because of him. â
The Jing Xi that Lou Ziling knew was happy and carefree most of the time. She was always positive. It was the first time he had seen her so depressed.
This kind of emotion should not appear on a fourteen-year-old Princess.
But he couldnât refute Jing Xi, because she was telling the truth.
If it hadnât been for Jing Yichen, he wouldnât have gotten close to Jing Xi.
No, thatâs not right!
He had saved her before he knew her identity!
Lou Ziling suddenly turned to Jing Xi and said,ââI didnât even know your name when I saved you at Dayun temple. Was that also because of your father?â
Jing Xi raised her head, blinked, and suddenly smiled.ââNo!â
After coaxing Jing Xi, Lou Ziling left.
Jing Xi stood in the dark and watched Lou Zilingâs Black Volvo disappear into the street lights. Her smile gradually disappeared.
She didnât want Lou Ziling to leave.
She wanted him to stay with her for a while longer. Even if he had a cold face and didnât say anything, it was already good enough.
It was drizzling, and Jing Xiâs clothes were wet.
An umbrella appeared above her head, and the bodyguard had appeared behind her.
âMiss, itâs dark, time to go home!â
âYes, letâs go home.â
â¦â¦
Lou Zilingâs car drove far away. He didnât stop until he was sure that Jing Xi was out of his sight.
Just now, he had seen from the rearview mirror that Jing Xi had been standing there the whole time, watching him disappear.
Lou Ziling took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a few puffs to suppress the thought of going back to Jing Xi.
He rarely smoked.
He felt like he had gone crazy.
She was still a child.
Lou Zilingâs chaotic thoughts gradually became clear as smoke surrounded the car.
He threw away all his distracting thoughts, restarted the car, and went to the restaurant to have dinner.
Lou Ziling had always been picky about her food. Unless she had nothing to eat or drink, like when she was on the island, she would eat exquisitely.
He entered a Western restaurant that had a good reputation and ordered a steak and spaghetti. The restaurant had given him a beautiful fruit platter as a gift, and he ate slowly.
On the outermost edge of the platter were crystal-clear and plump blueberries, which were like beautiful black pearls. They were embellished among the other colorful fruits and were very eye-catching.
Lou Ziling had seen similar wild fruits on the tropical island. At first, he would also pick some to fill his stomach and replenish the vitamins his body needed.
However, he stopped touching it after that.
Because he found that Jing Xi loved to eat wild fruits.
He had saved all of them for Jing Xi.
If he saw anyone picking the wild fruits around Jing Xi, he would drive them away in advance.
His combat power was unrivaled, and people usually wouldnât fight him to the death for a few wild fruits. They would all retreat sensibly.
Jing Xi did not know about this, and Lou Ziling did not want her to know either. As long as he saw Jing Xi picking wild fruits happily every time, eating until her lips turned purple and smiling in satisfaction, Lou Ziling felt very relaxed.
Lou Ziling had unknowingly finished the fruit platter, but she did not touch any of the blueberries.
When he started to eat his steak, two people walked into the dining room and caught his attention.
The man was handsome and Noble, while the woman was gentle and beautiful. The two of them were leaning against each other intimately. The woman held the manâs arm and spoke to him gently.
Lou Ziling didnât know the woman, but the man was Ji moxuan, whom he had just met during the day!
Lou Zilingâs brows furrowed imperceptibly. He took a deep look at Ji moxuan, then lowered his head and focused on eating his steak.
Ji moxuan was originally worried about meeting acquaintances, so he chose a restaurant that was slightly more remote.
He didnât expect to meet someone he knew, and a competitor he had just met today.
He let go of Wu Weiâs hand and walked to Lou Zilingâs table with a smile.ââI didnât expect to see you here. Did you come alone? I came here with my cousin, sheâs a regular here!â
âCousinâ Wu Weiâs face stiffened, but then she smiled as if nothing had happened,ââCousin, is this your friend? How come Iâve never seen him before?â
âOh, we just met today, so itâs normal that cousin hasnât seen him before. Letâs go and eat. Iâm so hungry! Letâs make this clear first, youâre the one who dragged me here, so this meal must be on you!â
Wu Wei smiled generously and elegantly.âSure! My treat!â
The two of them chatted and laughed as they sat down at a table in the corner. Lou Ziling did not say a word to them.
He had never liked to talk, and when he met someone who put on a pretense, he would not open his mouth.
No pair of cousins would walk into the dining room with their arms linked intimately. When the woman spoke, she looked at Ji moxuan affectionately and her eyes were filled with love. It was as if she was looking at her lover instead of her younger brother.
At least, Lou Ziling couldnât even be so intimate with her own sister, Lou ruofei.
Of course, this was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that Lou Ziling had already memorized the interpersonal relationships of the big families in A city.
Ji moxuan had a cousin, but it was definitely not the woman in front of him.
It was just an insignificant interlude. With Lou Zilingâs indifference, this matter would pass in the blink of an eye and would not leave a trace in his heart.
He quickly finished his dinner and walked out of the dining room.
Ji moxuanâs face turned dark after Lou Ziling left.
He stared unhappily at Wu Wei sitting opposite him and said in a bad tone,ââDidnât I say that Iâll send you overseas? Why didnât you leave?â
âYou didnât treat me like this just now. You got angry after seeing that man. Who is he?â
