On the way home, Lin Qian was thinking about what to eat in the evening. She then went to a nearby vegetable market and bought a fish, as well as some fruits and vegetables, preparing to go home and cook.

After returning home, as soon as I opened the door, I saw the afterglow of the sunset shining through the window into the spacious restaurant. Golden and red spots of light were jumping on the ground, creating a quiet and warm atmosphere.

Seeing this scene, Lin Qian's mood suddenly improved a lot, and her previous depressed mood mostly dissipated. She quickly put down the things in her hands, put on an apron, and went into the kitchen to get busy. After a while, a plate of delicious dishes were served on the exquisite table one after another.

Just as she was about to eat, she heard someone knocking on the door. She put down what she was holding and quickly went to open the door. She found that it was Lu Jingshen who had returned.

She asked softly, "Mr. Lu, are you off work so early today?"

Lu Jingshen raised his head and said calmly, "I came to do something nearby and came back to visit. I have to go back to the company later."

Lin Qian nodded. "That's great. Please sit down. We'll have dinner together." As she spoke, she pulled out the chair opposite her seat.

Lu Jingshen walked over and sat down.

He picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish, put it in his mouth and tasted it carefully.

Lin Qian also picked up her chopsticks and began to taste the food on the table. Although she had a good appetite, she seemed a little reserved because they were not familiar with each other. She did not dare to eat too much and did not know what to say. She sometimes lowered her head to eat, and sometimes looked up at Lu Jingshen, trying to find a topic.

Lu Jingshen seemed to notice Lin Qian's reservedness. He put down his chopsticks and said, "We are not in a superior-subordinate relationship. You don't have to be so reserved. You can relax a little and treat me like a friend."

Lin Qian felt warm in her heart when she heard this. She raised her head, looked at Lu Jingshen, and said gratefully, "Okay, thank you, Mr. Lu."

Lu Jingshen said: "Don't call me Mr. Lu in the future. It seems too formal. Just call me Jingshen directly."

Lin Qian nodded: "Yeah."

Lu Jingshen asked again: "By the way, how do your relatives and friends usually call you?"

Lin Qian replied: "Some of them call me Qianqian, some call me Xiaolin, and some call me by my full name."

Lu Jingshen smiled and said, "Then I will call you Qianqian from now on. Is that okay?"

Lin Qian smiled and responded: "Of course."

Lu Jingshen looked at Lin Qian and said with a smile: "Qianqian, I have some urgent work to deal with later, so I can't stay with you for too long. But I have already informed my assistant in advance. She is a very careful person. I want her to accompany you to the mall to buy some new clothes. Do you have time tonight?"

Lin Qian lowered her head slightly and asked hesitantly, "I do have time, but won't this be too expensive? I think my current clothes are pretty good and I don't need to buy new ones."

Lu Jingshen shook his head gently and said softly: "Qianqian, we are married now, and it is normal for a husband to buy clothes for his wife. You don't have to save money for me, just buy whatever you want, don't worry about money."

Lin Qian felt a warm current in her heart after hearing what Lu Jingshen said. She had only worn new clothes a few times since she was a child, and she had never spent money casually. She didn't dare to buy anything. But now, she suddenly had Lu Jingshen to rely on, and it seemed that the whole world had become warm and bright.

"Thank you, Jing Shen." Lin Qian was so moved that her eyes turned red and she said softly.

Lu Jingshen looked at Lin Qian, and his heart was filled with warmth. He knew that Lin Qian was a kind and simple girl who never asked for anything, but he also hoped that he could let her live a better life and feel more happiness.

After finishing the meal, Lu Jingshen left in a hurry. He was afraid that Lin Qian would feel uncomfortable, so he didn't stay too long.

He called his personal assistant Zhao Xiaoli and arranged for her to accompany Lin Qian to the mall to buy some clothes.

Zhao Xiaoli took Lin Qian to the bustling commercial district in the city center and walked into a high-end clothing store. The waiter in the store immediately came over and asked enthusiastically what kind of clothes they needed. Zhao Xiaoli carefully selected several sets of clothes that were suitable for Lin Qian, and then asked the waiter to take her to the fitting room to try them on.

After Lin Qian put on her new clothes, she walked out of the fitting room and stood in front of the mirror, looking at her new look with some trepidation. Zhao Xiaoli came over and saw Lin Qian's appearance. Her eyes lit up and she praised: "Qian Qian, you look really good in this dress. It's like you've become a different person."

Lin Qian smiled shyly after hearing Zhao Xiaoli's praise, but when she saw the price tags on the clothes, she felt intimidated. She asked nervously, "Although these clothes are beautiful, are they too expensive?"

Zhao Xiaoli smiled and said, "You don't need to worry about the money. As long as you look good in your clothes, President Lu will also be proud." Zhao Xiaoli leaned close to Lin Qian's ear and whispered, "If I don't complete the purchase task assigned by President Lu, I might be criticized. Don't feel bad about it. Just think of it as doing me a favor."

Lin Qian had no choice but to agree. After all, her current status was different. Although she was not Lu Jingshen's girlfriend, she was only the mother of Lu Jingshen's child. Her appearance was also very important, and she could not lose face for the Lu family.

After they finished shopping, Zhao Xiaoli took Lin Qian to other stores and helped her pick out a few pairs of shoes and some commonly used accessories to make her overall look more perfect. After shopping in the mall for more than an hour, Lin Qian gained a lot. Not only did she buy the clothes she liked, she also felt Zhao Xiaoli's enthusiasm and care.

Finally, the two walked out of the mall together and ran into Lu Jingshen's admirer Zhou Yuwei.

Zhou Yuwei has fair skin, beautiful looks, and a tall figure, like a blooming white magnolia, fresh and refined. Today she is wearing a well-tailored light yellow dress and a pair of 10-centimeter-high white high heels. The hem of her dress sways gently with her steps, exuding an elegant temperament. However, she has a cold personality and rarely smiles.

Zhou Yuwei's appearance caused a complex expression to cross Zhao Xiaoli's face. She frowned slightly, seeming a little nervous, but then quickly regained her composure.

Zhou Yuwei walked straight up to the two of them and looked down at them.

Zhao Xiaoli smiled and greeted, "Hello, Miss Zhou."

However, Zhou Yuwei's response was just a fake smile, which seemed extremely perfunctory.

As Lu Jingshen's personal secretary, Zhao Xiaoli had many contacts with Zhou Yuwei. But Zhou Yuwei was completely unfamiliar with Lin Qian. After looking Lin Qian up and down, she raised a contemptuous smile at the corner of her mouth and turned away.

However, for some reason, Zhou Yuwei always had an inexplicable premonition in her heart, which made her feel that things seemed not simple. So she immediately sent someone to investigate Lin Qian's identity.

Lin Qian also sensed the unusual atmosphere. She looked at Zhao Xiaoli's profile and asked in a low voice, "Sister Xiaoli, who was that woman just now? Why do I feel like she is hostile to us?"

Zhao Xiaoli looked around and made sure Zhou Yuwei had gone far away before she whispered to Lin Qian, "Her identity is extraordinary. She is the daughter of the Zhou Group. She grew up with President Lu and has always had a crush on him. But President Lu has no love for her. As long as she finds that there are suspicious women around President Lu who want to get close to him, she will take action. She has a bad temper, so everyone is a little afraid of her."

After hearing this, Lin Qian couldn't help but frown. Zhou Yuwei couldn't even tolerate Lu Jingshen's admirers, not to mention that she had already obtained a marriage certificate with Lu Jingshen.

Zhao Xiaoli saw Lin Qian's worry and comforted her, "But you don't have to worry too much. With President Lu's care, she shouldn't dare to act rashly."

Lin Qian nodded, but she felt a little uneasy. As she thought about it, she pulled Zhao Xiaoli and quickly left the mall.
