Lu Zhen was stunned. What did he mean by she didn’t want Song Jia to come to her house? Why did this guy sound a little aggrieved? After hesitating for a few seconds, she said, “Perhaps my father doesn’t mean that. He’s just asking you.”
Song Jia quickly replied, “Then take it that I want to come to your house.”
Lu Zhen blushed even more. Since Song Jia had already said so, how could she bear to disappoint him? Lu Zhen turned to Jiang Fei, who was making tea, and said, “Daddy, Song Jia said that he knows how to make dumplings, but he’s not very familiar with it.”
Lu Zhen was worried that if Song Jia came to her house and did not perform well, he might disappoint Jiang Fei. She had said this in advance. If Song Jia didn’t perform well, the situation wouldn’t be too awkward.
Hearing Lu Zhen’s words, Jiang Fei smiled faintly. “l knew he knew how to make dumplings. If he’s not busy with work tomorrow, let him come over and help. We might be a family in the future. Moreover, your uncle is usually very busy. It’s good for everyone to get to know each other at this time.”
Since Jiang Fei had said so, Lu Zhen naturally had no reason to refuse. She nodded. “Alright, I’ll tell him.”
When she returned to her room, she had just sent a message to Song Jia when Song Jia called. Lu Zhen quickly rushed to the dressing table and looked at herself in the mirror. Then, she tidied her messy hair before answering the video call.
It was a little dark on Song Jia’s side. There was an entire wall of bookshelves behind him. It seemed like he was in the study. Seeing Lu Zhen, Song Jia smiled faintly. “How is it?”
Lu Zhen sat on the bed. “Come over tomorrow.”
Song Jia nodded. “Alright, tell me, what are your uncle and brother like?”
Lu Zhen guessed that Song Jia wanted to prepare a gift for her family, but Song Jia had never seen her uncle and his son, so he was not sure what kind of gift to prepare. She hesitated for a moment and said, “My uncle is a very successful entrepreneur and businessman. As for my brother, I’ve never seen him before.’
“l understand.” Song Jia didn’t ask further. Instead, he focused on Lu Zhen on the screen.
Lu Zhen was wearing a white silk pajamas. The pajamas were embroidered with a green leaf vein pattern. The green made her skin look even paler. Under the light, her smooth skin had a jade-like warm texture.
The girl’s face was also clean, and her big eyes were clear and bright. She looked at him without any defense. Her honest and trusting gaze made Song Jia’s heart soften.
“Are you sleepy?” Song Jia asked gently.
“A little.” After Lu Zhen finished speaking, she looked at the side of Song Jia’s face and asked, ‘Are you still busy with work?”
Lu Zhen saw a brighter light reflected on one side of Song Jia’s face. It was probably the light from the computer monitor.
“I’ll be done soon. Go to sleep first.”
Lu Zhen shook her head. “It’s fine. Go ahead. I want to watch you work, okay? If you’re tired, I’ll sleep by myself.”
This was really a strange request. Song Jia smiled helplessly, a sly glint flashing across his eyes. “You want to see me? I’ll go to your house tomorrow.
You can see as much as you want then.”
Lu Zhen blushed. “Don’t get too carried away!’
Seeing that Lu Zhen was shy, Song Jia stopped joking. “Alright, I’ll put my phone aside. Sleep when you’re tired later. Don’t force yourself.”
Lu Zhen nodded and turned off the camera. Song Jia watched as the screen turned black and felt a little regretful. He almost thought that he could watch Lu Zhen fall asleep on the bed. This little girl was really shy.
After Lu Zhen turned off the camera, she lay on the bed and covered herself with the blanket. She took a toy doll and placed the phone in its arms. Then, she quietly looked at the screen. On the screen, Song Jia was sitting on the table. His cell phone was placed lower, so he was looking up. From this angle, she could see his clear and sharp jawline and the curve of his lips.
This angle of death did not damage the man’s looks at all. Lu Zhen saw Song Jia’s Adam’s apple bob occasionally and even felt mesmerized. She swore that she was not such a shallow person. It just so happened that the person she liked had a perfect appearance.
Just as Lu Zhen was engrossed in it, Song Jia suddenly looked down at his cell phone.
At first, Lu Zhen was shocked. She was worried that Song Jia would realize that she had been staring at him for a long time, but she quickly realized that the camera on her phone was turned off. Song Jia couldn’t see her at all..
