Tangling with the Western Commander

Chapter 285: Chapter 282: Love Rivals Collide, Sister Lu Takes the Stage

The wind blew, rustling the leaves, and the fragrance of melons and fruit was so tempting that Wen Xian almost let tears flow from her mouth.

“It’s so beautiful, it smells so sweet, I really want to sneak some fruit to eat!”

Lu Xiao chuckled softly, his gaze tender:

“Sneak? You don’t need to sneak. At this farmhouse, you just need to let the locals know and you can pick freely. Someone from our team came before and said it’s two hundred yuan per person to pick as much as you want, and it’s all yours.”

“Really!?”

Her eyes sparkled with surprise.

The car wove through a small path in the melon fields and woods, and Lu Xiao looked at her, his eyes suddenly deepening: “Do you want to go? I can take you.”

Just the two of them.

In that fragrant, densely wooded grove.

Wen Xian gazed into his deep, dark eyes, and for some reason, felt that they were exceedingly profound, like magnets, deeply drawing her in, making her want to plunge into them.

It was as if they held a deeper meaning.

“…”

After a few seconds of eye contact, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Unable to help herself, her hand grabbed the seat belt as she muttered to herself:

“It’s just you, a big man, who knows what you might do to me when the chance arises, and besides, I still need to go for the meal. They’re all waiting for me.”

After she spoke.

Lu Xiao didn’t say anything more but continued looking straight ahead, his composed demeanor inscrutable.

The car finally arrived, and multiple vehicles were parked in the open-air farmhouse courtyard.

After finding a parking spot, Wen Xian saw Cheng Dongyuan coming out.

Cheng Dongyuan was on a phone, though she didn’t know who he was talking to.

Just as she thought this, her own phone suddenly rang.

Wen Xian raised an eyebrow.

Lu Xiao glanced at Cheng Dongyuan standing there, then at her, and the next second, he suddenly turned off the car.

Wen Xian was startled: “What, what’s the matter? Weren’t you going back?”

Lu Xiao’s body stiffened for a moment, his breath catching.

But as he looked up, he saw Cheng Dongyuan seemed to have noticed them and was walking over, so he left her with a comment:

“I noticed the medicinal wine is quite heavy, let me carry it down for you.”

Saying this without waiting for her response, he went straight to help her carry it, opening the car door to take it out.

Wen Xian: “…”

As soon as Lu Xiao got out of the car, he met Cheng Dongyuan’s gaze.

He just looked at him.

In that instant when rivals met, the air seemed to suddenly fill with silent gunpowder.

Wen Xian, holding the kitten, also got out of the car. The kitten, seeing a few roosters not far away, immediately had stars in its eyes and darted after the roosters to play.

At this moment, Wen Xian walked beside the two men, looking directly at each other.

She paused for a moment, then suddenly raised her hand and waved it between them, asking, “What’s with the staring? Are you sure you two don’t have a problem?”

Upon her words, both men spoke in unison:

Lu Xiao: “Don’t talk nonsense.”

Cheng Dongyuan: “Who has a problem with him.”

At this moment, Sister Ling also came out.

She held a melon in her hand, and upon seeing Lu Xiao, she was immediately overjoyed and quickly said:

“Oh my, Captain Lu has also come! It was so nice of you to bring Axian here. We’re about to have our meal, and Captain probably hasn’t eaten yet. Why not stay–”

“No, the Captain must be quite busy, having taken the trouble to bring someone here already. Let’s not waste any more of his time,” Cheng Dongyuan insisted, looking at him.

“This–”

Sister Ling wanted to say something more, but in the next second, Lu Xiao flashed a wry smile and said lightly:

“The precinct isn’t that busy today, so since Sister Ling has invited me, I won’t be shy about accepting.”
