Chapter 413 - 411 Time, keep going
Returning from Bai Zhiqing’s room, Lu Tianxing plopped down onto the adjacent sofa and casually lit a cigarette for himself, a trace of a bitter smile playing at the corners of his mouth. He was utterly stumped by Bai Zhiqing’s request.
Pursuing Bai Zhiqing, making her fall in love with him, just how easy could that be? Although Bai Zhiqing had never really been in love and could be considered a complete novice in romance, she had been battling it out in the business world for so many years and was far from the naive young girl just entering society. Phrases like ’budding affection’ were utterly unfit for her. To put it bluntly, Bai Zhiqing was like a seasoned dough stick that had been rolled in the oil pan for countless years, having seen everything and experienced everything; she was not the kind of woman who would give her all for a simple romantic gesture.
Furthermore, Bai Zhiqing was not Lin Qianru, who, when in love, would dare to express it aloud. Bai Zhiqing was a woman with a very strong inner core, who, even in the unlikely event that she liked a man, would probably find it very hard to vocalize it and would rather express it in her unique way.
"Sigh, this is difficult. Pursuing a strong-willed woman is even harder than reaching the heavens," he said.
Lu Tianxing took a deep drag of his strong cigarette, and a hint of gloom appeared on his face through the smoke.
Bai Zhiqing had long been tempered by reality, and ordinary romantic gestures could hardly move her. Otherwise, she would have been taken a long time ago, not waiting for him to take the helm alone. To pry open Bai Zhiqing’s heart was definitely not an easy task.
"Sigh, forget it, don’t think about it. She’s already yours. With time, aren’t you afraid that you won’t win her over? Don’t forget, there’s an even more important matter tonight. The pursuit of Zhiqing can wait."
Glancing at the night sky outside, Lu Tianxing stubbed out the cigarette in his hand, his face breaking into a lecherous smile; he well remembered the promise Lin Qianru had made to him in the car.
Thinking of this, Lu Tianxing felt a surge of impulse, wishing time would hasten so he could accomplish what he desired.
