It was Lu Bancheng.
Xu Wennuan had been in a daze for a long time, so Lu Bancheng probably thought she was asleep and hadn't heard his phone ring. Before she could answer it, he had already hung up.
After a few seconds, her phone vibrated in her palm. When she looked at it, she saw that it was a text from Lu Bancheng. [My mother's birthday is tomorrow. Are you free in the afternoon? Come with me to see her.]
Come to think of it, other than meeting his parents a few times in the month before they got married, his parents went overseas for a vacation. It had been two or three months since then, but they hadn't seen each other.
Even though their current relationship was no different from an unmarried couple, at the very beginning, he did give her a million dollars to help her out of her predicament. No matter how many unhappy things happened between them, she still had to fulfill her promise to him.
Xu Wennuan pursed her lips tightly and stared at the screen for a long time before she finally unlocked her phone and replied to Lu Bancheng. "Got it."
Just as the screen indicated that she had successfully read the text, Lu Bancheng's call came in again.
Xu Wennuan hesitated for a moment before she answered.
She did not speak, and he did not call her name. Instead, he went straight to the point. "Tomorrow is Saturday. You don't have to work, right? I'll pick you up at 10 a.m. Is that okay? "
"No."
Xu Wennuan's reply was too simple, so Lu Bancheng paused for a moment before he said, "I've already prepared your birthday present."
Xu Wennuan did not speak again.
Both ends of the phone went blank. After a few seconds, Lu Bancheng muttered to himself and hung up without saying goodbye.
… …
Xu Wennuan did not know if it was because she would have to meet Lu Bancheng the next day or pretend to be an intimate couple, but her heart felt stifled and she could not sleep well that night. She crawled out of bed early the next morning.
Although they had agreed to meet at ten o 'clock, he arrived downstairs at 9: 40 pm.
Xu Wennuan, who had yet to pack up, dawdled for about ten minutes before she took the elevator down.
As soon as he stepped out of the neighborhood, he saw a familiar car parked on the side of the road.
Xu Wennuan subconsciously stopped in her tracks and stared at his car for a while before she took a deep breath and slowly walked forward.
Lu Bancheng, who was sitting in the car, saw her through the windshield just as she was about to arrive. His expression didn't change much, and he quickly retracted his gaze. He reached out and casually pressed the button on the car door to unlock it.
When Xu Wennuan heard the sound of the door opening, she pulled it open and sat down without saying anything to him.
As Xu Wennuan fastened her seatbelt, Lu Bancheng took out an exquisite bag from beside him and handed it to her. "Birthday present."
Xu Wennuan didn't say anything and took it silently.
Lu Bancheng was also silent. He gently stepped on the accelerator, stared at the road ahead, and skillfully drove the car forward.
Even though the two of them were not talking, Xu Wennuan still felt an indescribable sense of nervousness and unease as they sat quietly together.
Even though it was summer and the temperature outside the car was high, she couldn't help but roll down the window a little when they were waiting for the traffic light.
