Long Time, My Baby novel Chapter 8

At eight o'clock in the evening, Leah got a call from Lucian as soon as she left Caspar Manor.

"I'm in the underground parking lot." Lucian told Leah his location.

"Okay."

After walking out of Caspar Manor, Leah walked quickly to the parking lot. Lucian honked the horn. Seeing the tail light of an Aston Martin on, she muttered in her heart, 'Rich people are capricious.'.

If her eyes didn't deceive her, the car he sent her to the hospital that day was a limited edition of Rolls-Royce. She had seen it in a magazine. She also knew the name of the car today. After all, she had been in Caspar Manor for a long time, and she had seen a lot of them.

She walked over, got in the car and sat on the passenger seat. The feeling of luxury car was different. She couldn't afford it in her life, but she had been in many luxury cars.

While she was giggling in her heart, she suddenly felt a warm breath coming towards her. She came back to her senses and stared at the charming side face in front of her. For a moment, she blushed and could not say anything.

Lucian bent over and fastened the seat belt for her. He glanced at her pretty face and smiled.

"Seat belt." Lucian was good at controlling his emotions.

A cold and indifferent "kind reminder" came into Leah's ears, and her face, which had been red, became even redder. She stuttered, "thank, thank, thank you, Mr. Lucian."

Lucian raised his eyebrows and said in a calm voice, "You're welcome. Helping others is the most important thing. Besides, I'm your boss. It's natural for me to help the employees."

"Okay." Leah was dumbfounded. It was natural for her boss to fasten the seat belt for his employees?

But he was so close to her just now. She had to admit that the man beside her was indeed very handsome. Although she had a rich and handsome boyfriend, Charlie's face was carved like a sculpture, always emitting a cold aura.

However, Lucian was different. He had a delicate face, and his three-dimensional features were charming. If he wore a white suit, he would definitely be so cold that no one could resist the temptation.

Leah stared at the man who was focusing on driving without blinking.

Lucian seemed to feel the gaze of the woman, and he was in a good mood. The smile in her eyes went straight to the bottom of his heart. "How do you think of me?"

"You look like an immortal." Leah said unconsciously.

Lucian was choked and couldn't keep up with her thoughts. He could only ask helplessly, "Why?"

"Because you are handsome." Leah was still in a daze.

Lucian was depressed. Handsome? He didn't see how handsome the immortal was on TV. Well, he'd better not continue the topic that could have made him narcissistic, but now made him depressed.

Lucian turned around and happened to meet Leah's eyes. Seeing the smile on his face, Leah immediately turned her head to look out of the window and cried in her heart, 'oh my God! What did I say just now?'.

The smile in Lucian's eyes became wider. Noticing the little woman's embarrassment, she stopped making things difficult for her.

"What do you want to eat?" Lucian changed the topic.

"Would you like some porridge?" Leah was a little embarrassed. The boss asked her to have dinner with him, but she said she wanted to have porridge.

"Porridge is good for the stomach and intestines. I know a porridge shop is delicious." Lucian turned around and drove towards another street.

Qin Garden Porridge Shop was a century old famous porridge shop in Wilson city. It was famous all over the country with quiet environment and rich Chinese characteristics.

Leah liked eating porridge at night and knew this porridge shop, but the porridge here was extremely expensive. In fact, the price was just too expensive for her.

They found a table by the window and sat down. They ordered two bowls of pure porridge and some other salty dishes. Although they were not delicacies, they were light and delicious.

"Why do you eat pure porridge?" Although it was famous for its delicious porridge, it was very common for Lucian. She didn't order other expensive porridge, but ordered a bowl of it.

"Because it made the best porridge with the simplest material. In fact, it's not easy to control the temperature. It's simple but full of effort. I like it." Leah smiled happily.

"Well, simple but full of effort." Lucian took a spoonful of white porridge and put it into his mouth. The faint smell of rice spread in his mouth. Looking at Leah who was eating porridge carefully, he suddenly felt that how could there be such delicious porridge in the world. He decided to eat porridge from now on.

The happy dinner time was over. Lucian insisted on sending Leah home. It was too late. It was not safe for a girl.

Lucian was driving steadily. Leah looked out of the window at the night in silence.

Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure. It seemed to be Charlie.
