"...!!!!" How could a man be so shameless? Even if she slept on the bed and he on the couch, they would still be in the sroom, staying together all night long.
How could this be acceptable? "Mr.
Lu, you did this on purpose!" said Nanxi through gritted teeth, "Since you've already asked Mr.
Mo to deal with the issue of my uncle's painting shop being robbed, you could've simply letgo back to the university instead of drivingout here and makingwait for you to bringhere...” Nanxi's eyes flickered as she continued, "And having offended another woman, you cto see me.
Do you think that's fair? I don't want to be a homewrecker!" "Another woman? A homewrecker?" Lu Yinchu caught onto the keywords in Nanxi's words, and his solemn heart was warmed by her jealousy.
He stepped forward and grabbed her wrist, gazing into her eyes.
With a faint smile, he asked, "Nanxi, are you jealous?" Nanxi paused, then hurriedly denied it, "Nonsense! Why would I be jealous? Lu Yinchu, you think too highly of yourself!" "Really? You're not?" The handsman pressed his face close to Nanxi's, their breaths intermingling.
"No! Letgo, releaseright now!" Nanxi turned her face away.
Lu Yinchu's lips grazed her cheeks, causing her body to shiver! It wasn't only Nanxi who was affected; Lu Yinchu had only intended to tease her, but the faint kiss had stirred something within him.
He reached out, pulled her waist towards him, and imprisoned her in his embrace! "Lu Yinchu, what are you doing? Letgo, letgo now!" Nanxi struggled.
She did not like being held by Lu Yinchu, did not like being with him...
Because every time, she would feel inexplicably sad, very sad, although she didn't even know what for...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTears welled up in her eyes.
Before he could say a word, the woman in his arms began to sob uncontrollably.
Taken aback, Lu Yinchu released Nanxi and called out, "Nanxi..." "Don't call me! I hate you, Lu Yinchu, I hate you..." Each of her small fists hammered against his chest, each blow landing heavily on his heart.
He felt a moment's breathlessness and his vision blurred momentarily! He stretched his arms and held Nanxi tightly, pressing her head against his chest.
He comforted her, but did not say a word...
He was afraid that his welling emotions might frighten her, his voice might crack...
He feared he'd confess how he had met her, lost her and how he had made it through all those desperate days...
He feared he would lose her again, once more! With just a table lamp on in the room, the ambiance was dim yet tender.
Exhausted from her crying, Nanxi had fallen asleep.
How could she have been so unguarded and fallen asleep in front of him? Lu Yinchu glanced at his watch.
It was one in the morning! It was very late! He sighed and sat down on the bed, silently watching over her! Eight years had passed by.
He had aged from 24 to 32, and she from 14 to 22.
What changes does the passage of eight years bring? No one knows! He didn't want to ask what they had gone through in these eight years.
The only thing that mattered was that she was with him at that moment! He would be part of her life from now on.
He wouldn't let her shed tears or be wronged anymore.
He wouldn't let her feel sad or helpless.
He would lead her to the happiness she desired.
Before turning 24, Lu Yinchu had never given feelings much importance in his life.
From elementary school to college and further studies abroad, his twas mostly consumed by his studies and work! Women held no importance for him, and he stayed away from them! Maybe he was lonely, his life colourless and despairing, so heaven sent an angel to rescue him, he met Nanxi! What does it feel like to have your heart flutter? Think back to Nanxi's naive face when he first met her; he finds it ridiculous.
Although she was just a child back then, he, a 24-year-old mature man, was captivated.
But sometimes attraction works in mysterious ways-in the vast blue sky, the endless ocean, amidst birds and beasts, in the grand world...
Only she captured his heart! Back then, he had flown countless miles just to be with her.
But now, she was with him, even if she hadn't cfor him! In this world, speople are either entirely devoid of love or are so deeply in love that they promise a lifetof protection, remaining faithful to the very end...
The next morning, at half past six, Nanxi woke up with bleary eyes! Her eyes were a bit sore.
She rubbed them and felt groggy.
For sreason, she found the dorm bed more comfortable than it had ever been before.
The sudden comfort left her feeling a little unfamiliar! But when she sat upright and her gaze fell on the familiar yet foreign surroundings, she was stunned!
As her memory returned, she remembered that she had apparently Lu Yinchu cto the Lu familyparently last night to meet his supposedly unwell grandfather! Then Lu Yinchu had brought her into his room...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNanxi quickly realized what had happened.
She lifted the covers to find herself still in her clothes...
So she had just plopped onto the bed and fallen asleep last night? And she couldn't remember how she had fallen asleep at all! She threw off the covers and got off the bed, intending to rush into the bathroom to freshen up.
But the sight of a flash of pink by the bed was a bit jarring.
Turning around, she found a woman's outfit...
Nanxi bit her lip, knowing that Lu Yinchu had prepared it for her.
She was about to meet his grandfather, so she couldn't possibly wear the dirty clothes from the previous day. With a sigh, she picked up the outfit...
After a shower, Nanxi put on the clean clothes.
Carrying the outfit she had changed out of, she felt a bit at a loss it m wasn't too dirty, as she had just changed into it the previous night! Nanxi looked around the room, hoping to find something to pack these clothes in so she could take them back! Although the room was spacious, everything was meticulously organised, with no bags in sight! Nanxi neatly folded her clothes and placed them on the couch.
She then made the bed.
Seeing Lu Yinchu's suit jacket on the sofa, she walked over and picked it up.
The faint scent of Lu Yinchu wafted into her nose...
