The only SSSS-level fertility constitution in the entire interstellar space
Chapter 20 Xie Linyu's Considerations
Lu Yao's gaze was indeed drawn to the pearl-white "Moonlight" for a moment, but soon her eyes moved past it and landed on an ice-blue hovercar next to it.
The car's color was unique, resembling the frosty surface of a lake on a winter morning, or the cold light refracted by a polar glacier.
The car is smaller than the "Night Owl" and more angular than the "Moonlight". Its clean lines have a futuristic feel, neither too soft nor too bulky.
It sat there quietly, yet it possessed an undeniable presence.
"That blue one..." Lu Yao asked subconsciously, her tone filled with anticipation.
Zhou Jinlu followed her gaze, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, before his expression softened: "'Aurora' series, this year's limited edition, focuses on high performance and all-terrain adaptability, and the color scheme is 'Winter Blue'."
He paused, his gaze towards Lu Yao now filled with a hint of inquiry. "Miss Lu has a very unique eye. This car was designed with adventurers and outdoor enthusiasts in mind, and it's rare for a woman to choose it at first glance."
Lu Yao didn't pay attention to the subtle stereotype in his words; instead, she became more interested because of his introduction: "Can I see the interior?"
"Of course." Zhou Jinlu gestured to the sales assistant next to him.
The sales assistant quickly stepped forward and unlocked the door of the "Aurora" with the access card.
The car door lifts up like wings, revealing the driver's cabin inside.
The interior features a striking color scheme of space gray and ice blue, with a wraparound control panel and several screens arranged in an arc, where data flows silently like water.
The seat is an ergonomic racing model with excellent support and a soft, supportive fabric.
Lu Yao sat inside and tried it out. The view was wide open, the seat conformed to her back and waist, and the control lever next to her was comfortable to hold.
She could even imagine what it would feel like to drive it through the city's neon lights.
"Do you like this?" Fu Ciyan's voice suddenly rang out from behind.
Lu Yao turned around and saw that he had returned at some point and was standing outside the car door, his gaze calmly sweeping over the inside of the car before looking at her.
"Yeah, it feels pretty cool." Lu Yao didn't hide anything and truthfully expressed her preference. She got out of the car and stood next to Fu Ciyan.
Fu Ciyan naturally raised his hand and lightly put his arm around her shoulder, then nodded slightly to Zhou Jinlu: "Mr. Zhou, what a coincidence."
"General Fu." Zhou Jinlu returned the smile, his gaze lingering for a moment on Fu Ciyan's hand resting on Lu Yao's shoulder before casually looking away. "No work today?"
"Hmm." Fu Ciyan's answer was concise, clearly indicating he had no intention of elaborating. He looked at Lu Yao, "Are you sure it's this one?"
Lu Yao nodded: "Let's go with this one. I like the color and style."
"Okay." Fu Ciyan didn't ask any more questions and directly told the salesperson, "Complete the formalities, go for the top-of-the-line configuration, add the latest generation active defense system and intelligent navigation, and choose 'Winter Blue' as the color. Can we pick up the car today?"
The sales associate was taken aback by his decisive attitude and quickly said, "We have one top-of-the-line model in stock. The installation will take a little time, but we can complete the delivery as early as tomorrow afternoon. What do you think…?"
"Okay." Fu Ciyan agreed and handed over his personal terminal to authorize the payment.
The whole process was smooth and effortless. Zhou Jinlu stood aside, his gentle smile unchanged, only his eyes deepened.
He spoke casually, "General Fu is truly considerate to Miss Lu."
Fu Ciyan took the personal terminal handed back by the sales assistant and looked up when he heard this: "It's my job. If President Zhou is envious, he can give it a try."
Zhou Jinlu chuckled softly. He naturally knew what Fu Ciyan meant by not entering the room; it was simply that he was to be matched with someone through a walking marriage and experience it for himself.
He wasn't surprised by Fu Ciyan's keen insight, but what did it matter? If he really cared about Lu Yao, he could wait until their walking marriage ended.
He seemed oblivious to the meaning behind Fu Ciyan's words and laughed, "I'm just a little surprised that General Fu was able to accept it so quickly."
"This is probably an unexpected surprise, and President Zhou may find it hard to understand. We've got everything set up here, so we won't disturb President Zhou's enjoyment any longer. Farewell." Fu Ciyan put his arm around Lu Yao's waist and turned to leave.
Although Lu Yao didn't quite understand their conversation, she could sense the sharp tension between them.
After following Fu Ciyan back to the car, Lu Yao couldn't help but ask, "Do you have a grudge against Zhou Jinlu?"
Fu Ciyan glanced at her; the little girl looked completely bewildered.
"I guess so." He didn't elaborate, giving a vague answer.
Lu Yao had her own interpretation upon hearing this: "Then I'll stay away from him in the future."
We can't let Fu Ciyan's influence cause us any trouble.
Although she thought Zhou Jinlu was alright after meeting him today, she was now with Fu Ciyan, which inevitably made them both targets of each other's ire.
Just as she was thinking about these random things, the terminal on her wrist rang. It was Xie Linyu's assistant, Xiao Chen.
Lu Yao was stunned for a moment, subconsciously wondering if something had happened to Xie Linyu. After answering the call, she heard Xiao Chen's voice on the other end.
"Ms. Lu, are you available now? Regarding the accident that happened between you and Brother Xie on set, the production team and investors have reached a preliminary agreement on how to handle it, and they hope you can come over. It's about compensation."
Lu Yao was somewhat surprised by the compensation. She hadn't expected the production team to offer her compensation; she thought the matter would end with Xie Linyu saving her.
"No need for compensation," Lu Yao subconsciously declined. "I'm fine, it's mainly to thank the movie star..."
"Ms. Lu," Xiao Chen lowered his voice, his tone urgent and persuasive, "you should still come. This isn't just about money; it's also about the attitude of the production team and the investors. Whether you accept it in the end or not, they'll owe you a favor. In this industry, personal connections are very useful."
Lu Yao instantly understood what Xiao Chen meant.
She was somewhat surprised that Xiao Chen would tell her these things, since they weren't really related to his job.
So, Xie Linyu was the one who was able to explain such details to her?
She subconsciously looked at Fu Ciyan.
The man keenly noticed her gaze: "Address."
Lu Yao subconsciously gave the address of the film crew, and Fu Ciyan didn't say anything, directly entering the address into the navigation.
"I'll go over there now, thank you, Xiao Chen."
"You're welcome. If you want to thank someone, thank Brother Xie. He's the one who asked me to tell you."
really.
She ended the call, and the car fell into a brief silence.
Fu Ciyan didn't ask any further questions, but simply followed the route set by the navigation system and drove smoothly towards the film and television base.
"It was Xie Linyu who asked Xiao Chen to remind me," Lu Yao explained. "He said that if I went there, regardless of whether I accepted the compensation or not, I could make the production team and investors owe me a favor. In this industry, favors are useful."
"Hmm," Fu Ciyan responded in agreement, "He's considered things quite thoroughly."
