Tangling with the Western Commander

Chapter 320: Chapter 317: The Wildest Chapter 320: Chapter 317: The Wildest Both of them had studied together in college, but Shen Lin was unruly in nature.

Unwilling to submit to discipline, he went into business, for which he was once severely beaten by his father.

Shen Lin had some business acumen, and his investments flourished greatly.

Having invested some shares in his business early on, I had now multiplied that investment many times over.

It was more than enough to buy a house in Beijing.

“Get in the car, and tell me what’s this big news all about, but it better not be about getting married.”

Shen Lin joked casually.

Lu Xiao got into the passenger seat of the Hummer swiftly, pulled down his seatbelt, and exhaled a ring of smoke, his deep voice adding a touch of mild sarcasm:

“Why can’t it be about getting married? I’ve come back this time to settle that very issue.”

If he caused Wen Xian to become pregnant, he would have to give her an explanation at the first opportunity, no matter what.

“I—what did you say? Is this for real?!”

Shen Lin was genuinely shocked; having known his brother for so many years, Lu Xiao had always been completely focused on his work.

He worked extremely hard, obsessed with pursuits that occupied his entire life.

He never showed an interest in any woman.

Shen Lin couldn’t stand seeing him like that; just the thought of himself undertaking dangerous missions in the army like Lu Xiao gave him a headache.

Why bother when he could be conducting business, dominating the marketplace, and charming beautiful women?

The car started.

It headed toward the city center.

Lu Xiao lowered the car window, resting his wrist on the window sill, he flicked the ash off his cigarette, calmly stating, “When have you ever seen me joke around?”

Driving, Shen Lin seemed a bit disheveled by the wind.

Once assured that Lu Xiao was not joking, he expressed his shock in amazement:

“Which woman has captured you? That’s incredible; it couldn’t possibly be that a refined lady arranged by your family for a blind date, could it?”

With that said.

Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

A refined lady?

Had he ever met a refined lady who would knock on his door in the middle of the night, fight, and race cars?

Yet, ironically, he had no interest in those gentle, intellectual refined ladies at all.

“She’s a wild rose.”

The wild rose that drove him crazy

However, as soon as he said this, Shen Lin scoffed softly:

“You’ve got to be kidding; don’t I know you? A straight-laced man like you would definitely need a docile little woman who would obediently stay at home and look after the children. That suits your personality.”

Forget about a wild rose.

Lu Xiao was brought up with strict discipline, was conservative, and had strong self-control.

He always knew what he wanted, be it in academics, career, or family life.

He would not allow even a slight deviation in his life.

This was also what he admired about Lu Xiao.

In this chaotic world full of all sorts of demons and monsters, only Lu Xiao dared to forge ahead, bravely facing his own heart and fearlessly confronting his fears.

Lu Xiao remained silent, uninterested in speaking further.

He didn’t want to explain too much.

Instead, he took out his phone, paused, crushed the cigarette butt in the car’s ashtray, and then made a phone call.

Before Lu Xiao returned,

In Beijing, inside a quadrangle residence in Dongcheng District.

The north house, also known as the main house, was where guests gathered whenever they came.

At the moment,

Lu Xiao’s mother had no other hobbies; now that she had some free time, she would—
