C11 Limitation

Chen Miaomiao had already fallen halfway for him before they even met.

She believed that it was easy to discern whether someone was putting their heart into their actions.

Today, he had certainly surprised her!

And he was no ordinary man!

At that moment, a young man sat with impeccable posture in the room, cradling a bouquet of 999 roses.

He was strikingly handsome, with every feature sharply defined.

The hint of nobility in his expression was the crowning touch...

He was the main attraction of today's date.

"Lord Lu Ling, Miaomiao has arrived..."

His assistant whispered the update in his ear.

"Has she now?"

Lu Ling's smile broadened, and his already impressive stature seemed to rise even taller.

He had joined the military at 15, a prodigy of rare talent.

In the war zone, he was hailed as a once-in-a-century genius.

Over the years, he had been meticulously groomed by various mentors.

This year, he had ascended to the rank of the War God.

He had brought honor to his ancestors!

His family, the Lu family, had risen to become one of the most esteemed in Istripgan.

He had returned in triumph for one purpose alone!

To find a woman worthy of continuing the Lu family line.

In the past, the Lu family was not well-regarded by the elite families of Istripgan.

Now, those same families were practically breaking down their door, eager to align themselves through marriage.

But he had always scorned those women.

Some had beauty but lacked status or background.

Those with some background had businesses worth only a few million, nothing more than small workshops.

Others came from wealthy families but fell short of his standards of beauty.

That was until Lee Moxue approached his family, boldly offering herself as a potential bride.

One look at her photograph and Lu Ling was captivated!

Miaomiao was beautiful and well-proportioned.

The Chen family was a conglomerate worth billions.

The two families were truly well-matched!

He believed Miaomiao was the ideal choice to carry on the legacy of the Lu family.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

Soon, the sound of knocking echoed through the room.

Lu Ling, filled with excitement, opened the door to find Chen Miaomiao and Chu Chenglong standing behind her.

A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes.

Nevertheless, he quickly greeted her, "Miaomiao, I've been looking forward to your visit. Your aunt mentioned you love roses, so I went ahead and planted plenty for you!"

Chen Miaomiao hadn't expected Lu Ling to have a bouquet ready for her and she gladly accepted it.

"Thank you, you're so thoughtful. And tell me, how do you manage to look even more handsome than your photos?"

Chen Miaomiao gazed at Lu Ling, her eyes shining.

With his charm and status, Lu Ling was the epitome of her dream prince!

"Haha, oh please, it's just natural. There's not much I can do about it!"

"You're quite the humorist."

Lu Ling then inquired, "And who might this be?"

He glanced at Chu Chenglong. Today was supposed to be a private date with Miaomiao, yet she had brought another man along.

He needed to get to the bottom of it.

Noticing Lu Ling's puzzled look, Miaomiao quickly clarified, "He's the bodyguard my dad assigned to me for my protection when I'm out and about! It's okay for him to come in, isn't it?"

Bodyguard?

Chu Chenglong's mouth twitched slightly at the mention...

After all, Chen Miaomiao was the daughter of Chen Jun.

Anyone else might not have been so fortunate.

"Ah, that explains it! No problem at all, Miaomiao. Please, both of you come in. I'll have the waiter start serving the dishes, and we can chat while we eat!"

The table was soon laden with an array of exquisite dishes, brought out by the waitstaff.

The spread was lavish, boasting no fewer than a hundred different items.

From delicate pastries to rare ingredients and complex cooking techniques... The flaky pastry alone was a treat not commonly found.

"Wow! You've really outdone yourself. To think you prepared all these delicacies for me, and how did you know that my absolute favorite is the flaky pastry?"

Chen Miaomiao's face lit up with excitement; no man other than her father had ever made her feel so cared for.

As Lu Ling basked in the praise, a smile spread across his face. He was about to respond when Chu Chenglong reached for the only flaky pastry on the table.

Unbeknownst to him, this was the very treat Chen Miaomiao had been talking about. To him, it simply looked intriguing and potentially tasty.

"Crunch..."

He bit into it, savoring the sweet flavor and fragrant, trembling flakiness.

Delicious!

He devoured it with relish, eyes closed as he savored each bite. Upon opening his eyes, he was met with Lu Ling's disgruntled stare and Chen Miaomiao's look of sheer fury.

"What's the matter with you two? Why are you staring at me like that?" Chu Chenglong was perplexed.

Chen Miaomiao shot him a glare. "Chu Chenglong, have you never eaten before? Why did you eat the flaky pastry Lu Ling prepared for me?"

She was livid. No sooner had she declared her favorite treat to be the flaky pastry than Chu Chenglong had gobbled it up!

Realization dawned on Chu Chenglong. "I'm sorry, Miaomiao. I truly didn't realize that was the flaky pastry you were talking about. How about I give you the remaining half?" He quickly offered her the leftover piece.

Chen Miaomiao recoiled in horror. "Take it away! Who would want your leftovers? That's disgusting!" She tried to deflect it.

But the pastry fell onto her shoulder, scattering crumbs everywhere. The sensation of the crumbs made her feel as if ants were crawling all over her, prompting her to scream in terror.

"Ah! Wuuu, get it off, get it off now!"

Lu Ling shot Chu Chenglong a stern look, clearly unimpressed. "What's the deal with you, little bodyguard? You don't act the part at all. You should realize it's a privilege to sit and dine with us. Remember your place!"

Without Chen Miaomiao, he would never have allowed such a minor character to dine at the table.

Had it not been for Chen Miaomiao's sake, he wouldn't have even considered letting this minor character join the table today. To his surprise, that very character turned out to be quite the troublemaker!

After giving Chu Chenglong a piece of his mind, Lu Ling hurried over to Chen Miaomiao, wrapping her protectively in his arms as he reassured her, "It's okay, Miaomiao. I'm here for you."

"Mmm! Thank goodness you're here, Lu Ling. I was terrified just now!" Chen Miaomiao said, gazing at Lu Ling with gratitude.

"Miaomiao, your bodyguard is absolutely out of line. If it's not working out, you should fire him right now. I'll have one of my men take over as your bodyguard!" Lu Ling offered with an authoritative tone, "My bodyguards are all on par with the War God. They'll protect you around the clock, incomparable to any ordinary guard."
