Chapter 805: Don’t Get So Close to Me
He didn’t do anything out of line, just gently wrapped his arm around her waist, not letting her go.
Zhang Lingying’s body tensed up, and her voice unconsciously got louder, "Let go!"
"You just promised to chat with me for a while, I’m not done talking yet." Lu Jing released his hand, but slightly leaned forward, limiting Zhang Lingying’s movement to the sofa beside him.
As if if she had to leave, he couldn’t guarantee what he might do.
The brown pupils reflected a dangerous light under the lamp, like a leopard lurking behind its prey.
Zhang Lingying nervously swallowed, moving back a bit, "If you want to chat, let’s just chat, don’t... don’t be so close to me."
"Are you afraid of me?" Lu Jing raised an eyebrow.
"I’m not afraid!" Zhang Lingying’s mouth reacted faster than her brain, and after she spoke, she straightened her back, trying to prove that she really wasn’t afraid.
It wasn’t her first time alone with Lu Jing.
When he used to stay at her house, such situations happened often.
Although Lu Jing sometimes acted like a bandit, he still carried his pride deep down, otherwise, he probably had many ways to force her into joining his lab back then.
Back then, he didn’t have this eerie aura around him like he does now.
His eyes seemed full of plunder, but if you looked closely, you’d notice a faint sorrow in them...
If they weren’t competitors, she couldn’t help but want to comfort him a bit, to ask if he was really encountering some difficulties.
"Your hand is shaking." Lu Jing glanced at her and sneered.
A person who claims not to be afraid of him shakes at the sight of him, does she have Parkinson’s?
"I just finished showering, and I feel cold," Zhang Lingying said, quickly reaching for the blanket beside the sofa and wrapping it around herself.
She truly wasn’t scared of him; it was just that today, she didn’t know why every word Lu Jing said felt like an interrogation into her soul, an aggressive tone that made her shiver.
Zhang Lingying didn’t want to discuss the shaking issue any further and proactively spoke, "What else do you want to say? Go ahead, I’m listening."
"Let’s continue talking about Leng Jian." Lu Jing slowly started.
Zhang Lingying: "..."
Is he not satisfied today until he defames her idol in front of her?
Lu Jing: "Does Leng Jian know about you liking him?"
Zhang Lingying: "..."
Seeing her remaining silent, Lu Jing’s lips curved slightly: "Seems like he doesn’t know. Then let me ask you another question, do you know that Leng Jian likes Ji Weitian?"
Zhang Lingying: "..."
She figured it out, Lu Jing must have been upset after getting beaten up today, so he’s come to trouble her and make her upset too.
Zhang Lingying pouted, reluctantly saying, "So what if I know? So what if I don’t? Whom he likes is his freedom, just like it’s my freedom to like him..."
"If you really liked him, it’s impossible not to mind the fact that he likes someone else." Lu Jing suddenly interrupted her.
Zhang Lingying was stunned for a moment, looking up at him confused.
Meeting her gaze, Lu Jing’s thin lips parted slightly, speaking each word deliberately, "You don’t really like Leng Jian, you just see him as an ideal boyfriend model, thinking he’s gentlemanly, thinking he’s gentle, everything about him is good."
"..."
"But women don’t love good men, he’s the ideal boyfriend in your imagination, yet you don’t love him."
