Mr Fu, I Really Love You-Novel2

Chapter 1297: Man enough to stand up after suffering a blow!

There were many pretty ladies in the world, but Cai Jingyao was the only one who loved her wholeheartedly...

Lu Jinbei’s heart ached terribly. He turned around and pretended to walk to the coffee table to get some water to drink, hiding his reddened eyes.

...

Tang Zheng, who was in the midst of smoking, was eating the lollipop his daughter had given him. When he heard Lu Jinnan say that he would let Su Manman and Cai Jingyao compete for the endorsement, Tang Zheng took out the lollipop from his mouth and widened his eyes at Lu Jinnan. “Are you crazy? To let Su Manman and Cai Jingyao compete? You clearly know that that woman is up to no good by making use of Xiao Bei!”

Still probing Lu Jinnan with his gaze, Tang Zheng added, “Don’t tell me... you’re thinking of secretly developing a second romance because of Bai Xiaonian’s pregnancy? Let me tell you, Lu Jinnan! Our Nainai and Xiaonian are on pretty good terms. If you let Xiaonian down while she’s pregnant, don’t say that I’m a bad brother and that I’m ignoring you!”

Lu Jinnan was speechless.

“What are you thinking? I won’t have an affair even if you have one!” Lu Jinnan removed his suit jacket and placed it on the back of the chair. He rolled his eyes at Tang Zheng and said, “Xiao Bei said that this was going to be the last time he begs me for something, so I took the chance to agree. I also want to see what kind of regret he’d feel when he discovers that Cai Jingyao is just toying around with his feelings. Let’s see if he was man enough to stand up after suffering a huge blow!”

Tang Zheng was speechless.

This older brother was so scary. Thankfully, he was the only son and had no older brother.

Cai Jingyao and Su Manman were to shoot the commercial of the new perfume simultaneously. The Kaide Corporation would then vote for the two commercials, and the one with more votes would be chosen as the new spokesperson and get the endorsement deal.

When Cai Jingyao heard this news, she was confident and even a little excited instead of feeling intimidated or afraid.

She had always liked to compete with others since she was young. She always felt that getting something by seizing it from someone else was more precious and thrilling!

For example, how she had snatched Lu Jinbei from Bai Xiaonian all those years ago.

Su Manman and Cao Jingyao would film the advertisement concurrently. If the commercial that she shot was picked, she would be known as the one who defeated Su Manman. From then on, Su Manman’s title as a femme fatale would be hers, and her standing in the country would instantly skyrocket.

Even if Su Manman’s advertisement was selected in the end, Cai Jingyao could still take advantage of the fact that Su Manman was Fu Huai’an’s cousin. She could just say that Su Manman had gotten the endorsement because of her blood relation with the company’s chairman. The public would then see her as the most innocent cannon fodder in the entire matter, and her popularity would also increase.

Hence, fighting for the endorsement deal with Su Manman was beneficial to Cai Jingyao either way.

Lu Jinbei was indeed her lucky star. With Lu Jinbei around... Cai Jingyao could always have her wishes fulfilled. Even if she lost something, what she’d get in return would still be thousands of times better than what she’d lost.

In the bathroom, Cai Jingyao was soaking in bubbles when she heard Lu Jinbei knock on the door and say that the food was ready...

Yes, ever since Cai Jingyao received the call about her having to compete with Su Manman, Cai Jingyao had declared that she would take care of herself in all aspects until the day of filming. She wanted to be able to compete in her best condition!

Hence, Lu Jinbei, who had always been the one pampered in the Lu family, had now taken the task of settling the household matters, including cooking!

Cai Jingyao had to lose a little weight in the next few days, so it wasn’t too hard for Lu Jinbei as he only had to make salads. He prepared it for Cai Jingyao based on the recipes he found online.

Cai Jingyao had merely made Lu Jinbei one dinner and one lunch, but Lu Jinbei intended to take care of Cai Jingyao wholeheartedly.

Cai Jingyao stretched and replied, “Okay, I’ll be right there. Thanks for the hard work, Xiao Bei!”

Outside the door, Lu Jinbei’s lips curled up. At the thought of leaving Cai Jingyao in a month’s time, he couldn’t wait to give all his best to Cai Jingyao...

“No hurry, take it slow!” he said.

After she was done dawdling in the bath, Cai Jingyao put on her bathrobe and walked out of the bathroom. She put on a look of admiration and circled her arms around Lu Jinbei’s narrow waist. “Xiao Bei, you’re terrific! The salad is so beautiful and looks appetizing. What if I overeat? Do you still want me to lose weight?”

Seeing Cai Jingyao staring at him with starry eyes, Lu Jinbei couldn’t resist smiling and reaching out to stroke Cai Jingyao’s head. It was a bittersweet feeling. “You’re not fat... why are you trying to lose weight!”

“But I’m going to compete for an endorsement deal with a big shot like Su Manman! I have to give it my all!” Cai Jingyao glanced at the salad in her bowl. “If I don’t finish this, you have to forgive me, okay? Getting this endorsement deal is a big deal for me! If I get it, we’ll have the confidence to do anything that we want! Furthermore, there’ll be no pressure for you to take on another job.”

“Okay! I’ll forgive you!” Unknowingly, Lu Jinbei had been taught by Cai Jingyao to become more and more of a filial boyfriend.

“Xiao Bei, you’re the best...”

...

Bai Xiaonian placed her legs on the sofa, eating some fruits from the platter she was holding in her arms. She looked at Lu Jinnan’s back view as he watered the plants while answering a call...

After he hung up and finished watering the flowers in the yard, Lu Jinnan came in and washed his hands. He heard Bai Xiaonian ask, “Don’t tell me... Hong Jinyun went to the hospital and said that you’re the only friend in the country, then the hospital called you?”

Lu Jinnan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He took off his sunscreen jacket, removed his cap, and threw it on the sofa before bending over to plant a kiss on Bai Xiaonian’s forehead. “It’s Hong Jinyun’s doctor. He asked me to pay the fees.”

“You agreed?” Bai Xiaonian looked at Lu Jinnan with a hint of a smile.

“I said I’m sorry. The madam is very strict with her husband, so it’s inconvenient for the husband to pay for his ex-girlfriend’s fees... It’ll cause a family conflict!” Lu Jinnan smiled and said. action

Lu Jinnan’s words amused bai Xiaonian. “Did the doctor scold you for being a jerk?”

“When a man gets married, he can only be responsible for his wife. If he still gets involved with his ex-girlfriend, he’s a real scumbag...” Lu Jinnan picked up a piece of fruit from the fruit platter in Bai Xiaonian’s arms and asked, “Don’t eat too much fruit. It has too much sugar. Have you forgotten what the doctor said? Hmm?”

“I’m not full yet!” Bai Xiaonian frowned.

“The doctor asked you to control your diet for your own good. If you want to give birth naturally, you’ll have to control the child’s weight. You can suffer less. After the child is born, you can eat whatever you want. Whatever you want to eat, I’ll get it for you. But for now, let’s listen to the doctor, okay?”

Lu Jinnan coaxed Bai Xiaonian like he was coaxing a child, his tone incredibly gentle.

Bai Xiaonian pursed her lips and nodded, then reluctantly handed the fruit platter to Lu Jinnan.

“Let’s go... it’s time for lunch!” Lu Jinnan placed the fruit platter on the coffee table, then held Bai Xiaonian’s hand. “I’ll accompany you!”
