C32 Like Mr Sniper

"I'm used to it," Wen Shishi said. "It's been like this since I was young. In the past, I also had to raise a sister who studied abroad but now there's no need anymore. The burden is much lighter than before."

This time, it was Lu Xiao who didn't say anything.

He drove slowly, glancing at her from time to time in the rearview mirror.

The visual impact that Wen Shishi had on him was too shocking, and he was still unable to adjust.

Was she really the same woman from that day?

When she took off her black-rimmed glasses, he could already tell that she looked good, but now, dressed like this, it was as if she was another person. "Not bad," could no longer describe her.

Moreover, he could see that she was not even wearing any make-up yet.

In fact, the T-shirt and pleated skirt were common women's clothing. There was nothing special about them. The white color was suitable for everyone, so it was even less special.

But why was it different when she wore them?

Wen Shishi's skin was white and flawless, and her features were delicate but full of spirit. Even without makeup, she looked great, as she was a natural beauty.

Lu Xiao sneered. No wonder she didn't have a boyfriend even though she was so pretty. It was probably because she had suffered too many setbacks, so she deliberately used ugliness as a disguise to protect herself.

Men love wealth and beauty. If she had revealed her true appearance from the beginning, she definitely wouldn't have been able to lead an ordinary life.

But this was also her most commendable feature. Not being tempted by money, she was able to preserve her own heart.

Wen Shishi sat to one side, a little reserved. She didn't know that Lu Xiao was thinking of so many things. She just thought he didn't like her, so she didn't dare talk to him on the road.

The car finally stopped at a high-end private club.

Lu Xiao seemed to be a regular customer here. The door guard bowed, greeted him respectfully, and invited them in.

"Director Lu, you haven't told me what the occasion is today. How can I design your makeup?"

Lu Xiao threw her a look that said: "Are you an idiot?" "My face is perfect. Why would I have to put on makeup?"

Wen Shishi had no answer to that.

If he didn't need makeup, what did he call her for?

Wen Shishi noticed that everyone inside was in pairs. She guessed that he would probably bring a woman to accompany him, so she asked, "Do I have to put make-up on your companion?"

Lu Xiao took her hand and put it on his arm. "Aren't you my companion?"

Wen Shishi was taken aback. She took back her hand and said, "I'm sorry, Director Lu. I don't understand what you mean."

"Don't be afraid," Lu Xiao softened when he saw her looking like a frightened rabbit. He said in an unusually gentle tone, "Today is an anniversary banquet for my brother's company. My brother is remarkable in every way, except that he keeps urging me to find a girlfriend. Since he doesn't want to find a girlfriend either, why should I find one? He talks about it every time we meet. I'm so annoyed. If you help me by pretending to be my girlfriend, I'll give you another hundred thousand."

Wen Shishi felt she was deceived.

"Director Lu, I'm just a makeup artist. You'd better look for someone else. With that face of yours, there will be many girls willing to play this role."

Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows, "You don't want to pretend to be my girlfriend? I can give you five hundred thousand."

"That's not what I meant..."

"One million."

"Director Lu, don't be like this, it has nothing to do with money. I just don't think it's good to lie to others ... "

Lu Xiao raised his hand and interrupted her: "Enough, I'll pay you 5 million right now."

A message came on her cell phone.

Yes, it was a confirmation from the bank. The five million had already arrived.

Lu Xiao pulled her towards the private room, "Alright, it's just a deal; I won't eat you. How about we leave earlier, okay?"

It didn't matter whether she agreed or not. Lu Xiao had already opened the door of the room with a push and led her in front of everyone.

Only then did she see that this wasn't a private room, but a hall.

The guests inside were all familiar faces …

They were all celebrities that could only be seen on television!

"Brother!" Lu Xiao shouted while gripping her hand tightly: "I brought my girlfriend here, what about you?"

Wen Shishi had another shock seeing the person he called brother.

Huo Xiujue?!

He was not much different from the photos on the internet; he was just as mature and dignified. He came over and greeted her: "Hello, are you Lu Xiao's girlfriend? What's your name?"

This voice …

His voice was very similar to Mr. Sniper's!

But he looked at her as if she were a stranger.

Huo Xiujue was still waiting for her answer.

Wen Shishi coughed uncomfortably, "Hello, Mr. Huo. My name is Wen Shishi."

"Miss Wen," Huo Xiujue smiled, "Hello, I'm Huo Xiujue."

Lu Xiao proudly raised his chin: "Well, my girlfriend is not bad, right?"

Huo Xiujue crossed his arms and laughed, "Didn't you say your girlfriend is an older lady with black-rimmed glasses? Have you changed her already? Miss Wen, although I am his brother, I have to warn you that he is a playboy. Think hard if you want to be with him."

"Is there anyone else besides you who criticizes his own brother like that?" Lu Xiao was unhappy.

"Isn't it?" Huo Xiujue rubbed his chin and chuckled, "What about Linda, Lucy, and Amanda? I remember they were your girlfriends for no more than three days."

"It's all in the past, why are you still bringing it up?" Lu Xiao was a bit exasperated, "I won't do that now."

Huo Xiujue nodded with interest: “Of course, I hope you two will have a longer relationship, so Mom and Dad won't have to worry about you.

Wen Shishi listened to them for a while, but there was something she didn't understand. One of them had the surname Lu, and the other, Huo. Were they really blood brothers?

Lu Xiao explained to her, "He has my dad's surname, and I have my mom's. He really is my brother, but why do you keep looking at him? Besides being a bit more powerful in business, does he look better than me?"

Wen Shishi snapped out of her daze and retracted her gaze.

She did not notice that her gaze was fixed on Huo Xiujue, trying to find traces of similarities between him and Mr. Sniper.

Height, posture, voice, power, and money. Everything about them was very similar.

However, Mr. Sniper denied that he was Huo Xiujue.

Was it because he still had something to deal with, so he didn't want to admit it?

At least so far, Huo Xiujue was the most similar to Mr. Sniper.
