My Beautiful Love

She hadn't expected Lu Enterprises to value Le Blanc Group that much. She also didn't expect that the old Mr. and Mrs. Blanc would take their time to attend Lu Enterprises' Centennial.

"Le Blanc Group has been a partner of Lu Enterprises since three decades ago. My parents were also major business partners." In fact, all the old partners were being invited. This would be the largest banquet in the history of Lu Enterprises.

"I see." She had received three invitations too but she wasn't too sure that Lin Zhou would attend. He didn't seem to be in exact good terms with Lu Enterprises.

"Are you still recruiting artistes?" he looked at her and asked.

Lin Lihua thought he was only asking her to know her progress. "I still need more artistes. The newbies have already started their training." All her artistes would undergo a period of training before they could start taking on assignments in the entertainment industry.

"Do you accept children as well?"

"I have one in mind. My niece would make a perfect singer and actress, but I'll wait for her to grow up." Of course, if she tried to scout Little Jia right now, Lu Aotian would have something to say. She had to wait until Little Jia was at least an adolescent and even then, she would have to seek Lu Aotian's, Wan Jia's and Little Jia's consent.

Henry Blanc was glad to hear her answer. "My Katy dreams of being an actress. Does she qualify to be recruited by you?"

"I don't know about that, she's still too young. What does she know about dreams?" Lin Lihua found it crazy to think about. She shouldn't be much older than Little Jia. She didn't really find it troublesome but how could a child be sure what they wanted? One had to know that if she shot to fame for being a child actress, her life would change significantly. Was she sure that she wanted this kind of change?

"You could consider her in future. Of course, I'm only giving you a heads up. She will have to qualify on her own. Don't pull strings for her just because she's your niece, okay?"

Lin Lihua waved her hand. "Don't worry. I will not pull strings for anyone. Not even Little Jia."

He was satisfied with her response. For a moment, he was entranced as he looked at her.

It didn't require having experience in love for Lin Lihua to know what he was thinking about. He was pleased by her looks.

"Should I come closer so you can take a better look?" she asked directly.

Henry Blanc who was sitting a wide distance from her didn't flinch. "Sure."

She stood up, walked to him and sat right next to him. "Close enough?"

"Any closer and I'll ravish you."

"…"

You didn't have to make it sound so horrifying, you know.

"Is that so?" she looked into his eyes. "There's nothing wrong with that, is there?"

"I thought all women were shy." He said. This was probably the first woman he had ever met who could look into his eyes without avoiding his gaze shyly.

"What's there to be shy about? You're my fiancé." she wasn't nervous at all.

She had called him her fiancé countless times but hearing it from her again, it sounded like the most beautiful word in the world. Her eyes held a torch in them; it was obvious that she had grown to love him more over time.

Enchanted by her beautiful eyes and those lips that drove him insane, he held her neck and kissed her. It was only when he uncontrollably placed his hands on her chest that he stopped.

"Lihua, I hope you don't mind how close Katy is to me. But if you mind,…"

"I don't mind. I like children as long as they are well behaved." Of course, her best definition of well behaved was Little Jia and Tangtang. Those two kids were like every other children; they would kick up a fuss once in a while when things didn't go their way. But the difference between them and other children was that they never made the same mistake twice. Once they promised to not do something, they wouldn't do it. The Xu and Lu families were quite strict. Then there was Katy…

"I don't know what to say about that. She's not exactly what you would call obedient. My parents and sister spoil her too much and always give in to her."

Lin Lihua thought it was troublesome. "You know, you can't always give in to children. It's your responsibility if they turned poisonous."

"I know. I will not let her become wayward." Besides, he was ultimately only her uncle. He could only do his best in that shoe.

"When will we have kids of our own?" he suddenly landed on this topic.

Lin Lihua glared at him. "Are you seriously asking about kids when we haven't even talked about our wedding yet?" Forget about the wedding. He had not even sent a betrothal gift yet.

"Then let's talk about our wedding."

When he was least expecting it, she pushed him down on the sofa and grabbed his tie, looking into those blue eyes. "I'm already yours. What are you rushing for?"

He held her back and turned, so that she was under him."I'm rushing to make you Mrs. Blanc. Is there a speed limit?"

He finished speaking and kissed her again, wondering. Eer…would it be appropriate if he made her his right now?
