Fated to My Billionaire Husband

”Go ahead, I’ll pick you up for lunch. Remember, you’re not allowed to have lunch with Li Qian again.”

Li Mingxi sneered, ”Don’t be too demanding. You and I are just in a secret relationship. Do you know what ’secret’ means? Once we’re out the door, you can’t interfere with anything I do. That’s what we agreed on.”

Xiao Lang’s face darkened, then he smiled, ”No matter what our relationship is, you’re my lover now. Are you going to be with me while still seeing Li Qian?”

If Li Mingxi and Li Qian weren’t in some collaboration, she’d definitely not do this kind of thing.

So this time, Xiao Lang miscalculated.

Li Mingxi patted his face, grinning coquettishly, ”Why not? If men can have one in each arm, why can’t I?”

Xiao Lang’s expression worsened.

Li Mingxi smiled and opened the door to get out of the car.

Xiao Lang punched the steering wheel fiercely, the car horn blaring harshly.

Li Mingxi turned back, what’s gotten into him?

Many people looked over—

Two young nurses happened to be coming out and turned their heads at the sound of the horn.

Then when they saw, they couldn’t help but gossip.

”Director, did you come with Mr. Xiao?”

”Isn’t that obvious, the director just got out of the car like that.”

Li Mingxi secretly glared at Xiao Lang, you’re ruthless!

”Director, do tell us, are you and Mr. Xiao together?” The young nurse persisted, still wanting to gossip.

Li Mingxi snorted coldly, ”Don’t you want to work anymore? Stay out of things that aren’t your business!”

The two young nurses slinked away.

Li Mingxi straightened her back and walked into the hospital without a backward glance.

She knew that another gossip was likely to spread in the hospital today.

No one in the hospital knew what was going on, always on about her business. Was it because she was too lenient as a director?

...

At noon, Xiao Lang called in advance.

”When are you off? I’ll pick you up for lunch.”

”No need, I’ll eat at the hospital,” Li Mingxi declined blandly.

Xiao Lang chuckled, ”Then I’ll come to your hospital to eat, and get a check-up while I’m at it.”

His injuries didn’t need any check-ups, just regular dressing changes.

Besides, if he came, it would surely become even more well-known about their relationship.

Even though she and Li Qian were just in a business relationship, she still needed to maintain the basic appearance for Li Qian.

”Wait for me at a nearby café, I’ll come to you after work.”

”Okay.” Xiao Lang didn’t argue.

The café was two hundred meters from the hospital, meeting there avoided being spotted by acquaintances.

Li Mingxi packed her things and left work.

She headed to the café and saw Xiao Lang sitting by the door.

Li Mingxi sat opposite him, and Xiao Lang pushed a glass of iced juice he ordered in front of her.

”Drink this to cool off.”

Li Mingxi didn’t stand on ceremony and drank half the glass through the straw.

”Let’s go eat.” Li Mingxi pushed the glass away and stood up.

Xiao Lang got up and took her hand, ”Let’s eat at Langming, I’ve already ordered.”

Li Mingxi didn’t object. It didn’t matter where they ate, besides, the food at Langming was exceptionally good.

But just as they arrived at the entrance of Langming, they saw Li Qian getting out of a car.

He had brought some friends for a meal, and they accidentally ran into each other.

Li Mingxi was about to get out, but upon seeing him, she stayed in the car.
