With My Profound Love, I Offer to the Years

Chapter 82

The result was that Lu Lingchuan still didn't look at him, but stared at Shen Nian instead: "Get in the car."

Shen Nian didn't say anything, silently opening the rear door and getting in, with Lu Lingchuan following closely behind her.

After closing the door, he finally looked at Lu Lingchen properly, giving a casual order: "Drive."

"Oh." Lu Lingchen silently started the car, furtively glancing at Lu Lingchuan through the rearview mirror.

The man's face was expressionless, making it impossible to discern his emotions.

However, just from his slightly furrowed handsome brow, one could tell that his brother... seemed to be in a bad mood.

Judging from the tone he used when speaking to Shen Nian earlier.

It might be better to wait until they boarded the plane to find a chance to talk to his brother. For now... it's better not to.

You can't provoke an angry tiger.

As Lu Lingchen drove out of the underground parking lot, he belatedly realized something.

Originally, Shen Nian was supposed to drive, so how did it end up being him?

Looking at the two sitting side by side in the back, although separated by a distance, on the left and right...

Damn! He had become their driver?!

.......................

They soon arrived at the airport, with Manager Yu and Deputy Manager Chen preceding them and taking care of check-in, security, and boarding.

After boarding the plane, Lu Lingchuan found his seat according to the number on his ticket.

The first-class seats were arranged in pairs, with two seats together on the left and two on the right, separated by an aisle, making a total of four seats per row.

Lu Lingchuan sat in the window seat on the left side, while Manager Yu and Deputy Manager Chen occupied the two seats on the right.

After boarding, Lu Lingchen checked his seat number, then looked towards Lu Lingchuan, who was leaning on his elbow and staring out the window: "Brother, let's sit together."

Hearing this, Lu Lingchuan withdrew his gaze, glanced at him, and said nothing, speechless.

Lu Lingchen sat down next to Lu Lingchuan, followed by Shen Nian behind him.

Her seat was behind Lu Lingchuan.

The airline tickets were arranged by the company staff, who, after much deliberation, decided on these seating arrangements considering that Lu Lingchen was Lu Lingchuan's younger brother and Shen Nian was Lu Lingchuan's assistant.

This way, Mr. Lu and Manager Lu, the brothers, could sit together, while Assistant Shen would be close to Mr. Lu, ready to receive instructions at any time.

Shen Nian's seat was also on the inside, and the passenger next to her had already taken their seat - a large, obese man whose size was hard to gauge, but whose bulk was considerable.

As soon as he sat down, Shen Nian felt that the space was already overwhelmed by his presence, leaving her with only a tiny gap to squeeze through.

After silently observing the crevice the obese man had left for her to pass, Shen Nian waited a few seconds before addressing him politely:

"Excuse me, could you please make some room? My seat is on the inside."

Shen Nian had come straight from the office, still wearing her secretary outfit, which accentuated her slender and tall figure, especially the long, slim legs visible beneath her skirt, leaving many in awe. The obese man's narrowed eyes widened considerably at the sight.

He clumsily stood up, moving to the aisle to let Shen Nian through.

Shen Nian walked past and took her seat, then leaned her elbow on the armrest, chin in hand, mimicking Lu Lingchuan's pose as she gazed out the window.

"Beautiful lady." Shen Nian ignored the voice addressing her.

"Beautiful lady?" This time, she felt a hand touch her waist, prompting her to shift inwards and turn to see the obese man seated next to her.

The obese man grinned, his eyes squinting into slits as he waved his phone: "Beautiful lady, you're going to Hai City too, what a coincidence?"

"..." This flight was a direct one to Hai City; where else would she be going?

It was a truly low-level attempt at making a pass.

Shen Nian didn't respond, silently turning away, but the obese man didn't pick up on her indifference and continued grinning as he spoke:

"I go to Hai City all the time; it's perfect for tourism. They have a lot of famous seafood restaurants there. I know several places that serve really delicious food at reasonable prices."

"Why don't we exchange WeChat contacts? Once we arrive in Hai City, we can chat more. If you have any questions, just ask me, and I'll let you know."

Shen Nian moved to the innermost edge of her seat, putting as much distance as possible between herself and the obese man.

"No, thank you."

The obese man was relentless: "Beautiful lady, you'll definitely need it. Just add me as a friend."

"The plane is about to take off." Before takeoff, passengers were required to turn off their phones or switch to airplane mode, so Shen Nian was politely declining his request.

However, the obese man was oblivious: "Oh, it'll still be a while before takeoff. The economy class passengers haven't even boarded yet, so we have some time."

Shen Nian: "I use an old-fashioned phone."

This was a clear rejection.

As expected, the obese man faltered, forcing an awkward laugh: "Beautiful lady, you sure know how to joke around."

Lu Lingchuan overheard the entire conversation between Shen Nian and the obese man behind them. The obese man was shamelessly persistent, clinging to Shen Nian and pestering her for her contact information, embodying the saying "Even a ghost would be debauched beneath the peony blossoms."

Lu Lingchuan couldn't stand it any longer: "Lu Lingchen."

Lu Lingchen, who was playing on his phone, looked up: "Hm?"

Lu Lingchuan was annoyed, closing his eyes and massaging his brow: "Switch seats."

"Huh?" Lu Lingchen looked bewildered; he was wearing Bluetooth earphones and had been absorbed in watching videos, so he hadn't noticed the situation behind him and didn't know what was going on. He was confused by Lu Lingchuan's words, but he silently stood up nonetheless.

"Brother, if you prefer the window, then I'll..." He was about to switch seats reluctantly.

"With Shen Nian," Lu Lingchuan said casually.

"???" Lu Lingchen removed his Bluetooth earphones, even more perplexed, instinctively glancing towards Shen Nian behind them.

The obese man hadn't given up yet and was still harassing Shen Nian, even preparing to make physical advances.

"Hey." Lu Lingchen realized what was happening and immediately called out to the obese man.

He regarded Shen Nian like an older sister, just as he did with Lu Lingrui.

Seeing Shen Nian being harassed, he didn't hesitate to intervene: "Nian-jie, let's switch seats."

Without waiting for Shen Nian's response, the obese man objected: "Who are you?"

"A friend of hers, my sister." In front of the two company managers, Lu Lingchen didn't use the term "sister-in-law" or similar, but referring to her as "sister" was acceptable.

Firstly, Shen Nian was older than Lu Lingchen; secondly, Shen Nian had been with Lu Lingchuan since the early days of his business, essentially his right-hand woman, so it wasn't inappropriate for Lu Lingchen to call her "sister."

"Listen, old man, it's true that a graceful and virtuous lady is a rare find, but you should also have some self-awareness. Can't you see how annoyed my sister is with your pestering?"

"You...!"

A flight attendant, having heard the commotion, hurried over: "Is there a problem here?"

"Look." Lu Lingchen pointed: "This gentleman here has taken a liking to my sister and keeps pestering her for her contact information. I want to switch seats with my sister."

The flight attendant glanced at the obese man, then at Shen Nian.

Shen Nian was seated in the innermost corner, occupying only a small portion of the spacious seat while maintaining a distance from the obese man.

Even without seeing her face, her slender figure and elegant demeanor made it clear that Shen Nian was indeed a beauty.

A beautiful woman being harassed was all too common, so the flight attendant didn't doubt Lu Lingchen's words.
