After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 231

Chapter 231: Chapter 231 K Comes to China, Meeting at the Restaurant

Even after Li Muchen had left, Lu Sheng was slow to react.

It seems she had just experienced her first emotional crisis with Li Muchen—because of the unfamiliar scent of another woman’s perfume on his shirt.

From the phenomena Lu Sheng has seen, human couples are very prone to arguing and conflict over such matters.

But just now, it seemed she hadn’t really done anything; she had only said a few words, and Li Muchen had gone out in the middle of the night to look for evidence to prove his innocence.

Her lover seemed to be so conscious that he didn’t give her a reason to be angry or quarrel with him.

Seeing this, Lu Sheng could only take back her gaze and went to the bathroom to quickly take a shower.

However, just when she was preparing to go to bed, her mobile phone suddenly received a message.

To be precise, three messages.

[More than two months have passed, Miss Lu Sheng should still remember who I am, right?]

[Last time Miss Lu Sheng said on the phone that if I ever need your help or if I come to China, I can call you anytime.]

[I am arriving in Jiang City, China, on tomorrow afternoon’s flight. If Miss Lu Sheng is free tomorrow evening, I wonder if I might have the honor of inviting you to dinner ^_^]

Not to mention that Lu Sheng had already saved the number in her phone, just seeing that familiar [^_^] symbol, Lu Sheng instantly remembered K.

Two months ago, Li Muchen’s grandmother was kidnapped from the nursing home and taken away by people hired by Li Feng, locked up in a secluded abandoned underground bar in Suli.

If it weren’t for K’s help in finding the grandmother’s whereabouts, Li Muchen wouldn’t have been able to rescue the grandmother from those mercenaries so quickly.

If the grandmother hadn’t been rescued in time and had fallen into Li Feng’s hands, the consequences would be unimaginable.

With the grandmother’s life in his hands, even if he and Fu Siya’s shady plans couldn’t be fully realized, Li Feng would definitely think of ways to extract benefits from Li Muchen.

God knows how much trouble that would bring them.

The favor owed to K, Lu Sheng always kept in mind. So upon seeing the text message, Lu Sheng immediately returned a call.

"...Mr. K?" Lu Sheng said into the phone, "I hope my sudden call hasn’t disturbed you."

"Of course not."

As the voice fell, a low, pleasant chuckle, tinged with laziness, came from the other end of the phone, "I’ve said before, Miss Lu Sheng, you can just call me Crohn."

"If you’re not used to it, you can also call me by my Chinese name, Chen Shu."

Hearing this, Lu Sheng paused for a moment: "...Chen Shu?"

"It’s not the Chen of a declarative sentence, but the Chen that means untainted by dust," the man explained, "My mother is Chinese, Chen is her original surname."

So this K was actually half-Chinese, with half of his bloodline being Chinese.

No wonder he spoke Chinese so fluently, even easily using an idiom like ’untainted by dust’ that could be considered tricky.

So Lu Sheng straightforwardly changed her way of addressing him: "Mr. Chen, are you saying you will be arriving in Jiang City tomorrow afternoon?"

"Yes, the plane should land around three o’clock." Chen Shu replied.

"You mentioned in your text that you’d like to have dinner with me, and I certainly have the time."

Lu Sheng spoke into the phone, "I haven’t had the chance to properly thank you for helping my friend find her grandmother last time."

"Mr. Chen, it will be much more convenient with a guide since it’s your first time coming to China. Tomorrow just happens to be a Saturday, so I can go directly to the airport to pick you up."

"If you haven’t booked a hotel yet, I can help you book one now. For the restaurant tomorrow night, I will find one that represents the most authentic Chinese character to take you to try Chinese cuisine."

Lu Sheng is not an overly enthusiastic person, but when it comes to hosting friends, she always does her utmost, like she did for Osborne when he visited China before.

Especially since Chen Shu had done her a favor, even if she had other plans for tomorrow, she would have cancelled them.

However, contrary to Lu Sheng’s expectations, Chen Shu declined her offer.

"There’s no need to pick me up from the airport, I have other plans after getting off the plane, and the hotel has been booked for me by someone else."

"But as for the restaurant with the most authentic Chinese character, I indeed need Miss Lu Sheng’s help for that."
