Chapter 802: He Has No Shame, But She Still Does!
"No." Zhang Lingying blurted out, taking three steps back, warily raising her head to stare at him.
Then, noticing the untreated wounds on his face, her eyes darkened slightly.
Tightly biting her lip, she refused to back down.
She just squeezed the key in her hand, reminding herself inwardly.
If Lu Jing was afraid of pain, he could go to the hospital. She’s not more professional than a doctor, especially so late at night. Letting him into her home, if he had malicious intentions, wouldn’t it be like inviting a wolf into the house?
With this in mind, Zhang Lingying became even more determined not to be soft-hearted towards Lu Jing.
Just as she was about to remind him to move aside and not block her way home, Lu Jing voluntarily stepped aside in the next second.
His tall figure moved two steps to the side to make it easier for her to step forward and unlock the door.
He then, like an abandoned puppy, hugged his arms and squatted in the corner, his mischievous eyes carrying a trace of melancholy, glancing unintentionally in her direction...
How could Zhang Lingying not see through his ruse? She gritted her teeth, stomped her foot, and hardened her heart, stepping forward to open the door, then entered her home without another word, swiftly closing the door in Lu Jing’s face!
All in one go.
Yes! Just like that.
When dealing with bad people, you have to be ruthless. As long as you don’t give him hope, he has no show to put on.
Zhang Lingying tossed her keys onto the cabinet by the door, turned around, and went into her room to get her pajamas to take a shower.
She dawdled for more than half an hour, finally freshening up and planning to lie on the sofa to read for a while.
The next second, something crossed her mind, and she couldn’t help but sit up from the sofa again, tiptoeing towards the door.
Like a thief afraid of being caught, she quietly peeked out through the peephole.
Not seeing Lu Jing at the door, she let out a long sigh of relief.
Indeed, just as she guessed.
Lu Jing was just a cunning old fox, deliberately putting on a pitiful act to win her sympathy.
If she truly ignored him, would he really sit at her door all night?
Thinking about it, it seemed impossible.
Zhang Lingying curled her lip, seeing no one outside, just about to turn back to the sofa, when she suddenly heard some sound, and her steps paused as she suddenly looked back at the door...
As if sensing some impending doom, she hesitated for about three seconds before dashing back, leaning against the peephole, taking another look outside.
Lu Jing hadn’t left.
He had just moved from where he originally sat to her doorstep, and it seemed like he was leaning against her door panel.
She didn’t notice at first glance and thought there was no one outside the door.
Shifting her gaze down slightly, she could barely make out a tuft of his hair...
Just as Zhang Lingying doubted whether she was overthinking, a suppressed cough came from outside the door.
He intentionally lowered his voice as if not wanting to disturb her rest, making the cough sound muffled.
If she weren’t standing right by the door, she might really not have heard it.
As if under a spell, Zhang Lingying immediately thought of the scene when Lu Jing clung to her home.
How could she forget, this person never gives up until he achieves his goals.
Not to mention guarding outside her door all night, even if asked to do it for a month, he might still manage it.
Having just moved in not long ago, if the neighbors saw a strange man with injuries loitering at her door every day, they might conjure up a love’em and leave’em heartless woman story in their minds...
He might not care about his reputation, but she still did!
