Chapter 473 - 462
Yu Sangwan ran out and randomly stopped a car.
"Miss, where to?"
Hearing the driver ask, Yu Sangwan’s mind went blank. Yes, where should she go? She had been brought here by Lu Jinxuan while unconscious, and now... she should probably return to Donghua, right? But she didn’t have her documents and couldn’t buy a plane ticket.
"Driver, to the train station."
"Alright."
The bustling train station was filled with a mixed atmosphere. Standing there in her luxurious dress, Yu Sangwan felt out of place. Suddenly, she felt a pang of sadness; wasn’t it the same between her and Lu Jinxuan?
In the end... they were incompatible, right?
Without any identification, Yu Sangwan could only buy the most basic train ticket. The people taking this kind of train were mostly from the lower strata of society. Her attire was so out of place that she was pushed to a corner as soon as she got on. Worse yet, she had bought a last-minute ticket and didn’t even have a seat.
As she hesitated about what to do, a middle-aged woman with a child bumped into her from behind, "Hey, why are you standing here? Move, don’t block the way!"
"..." Yu Sangwan saw their large bags and hurriedly stepped aside.
She spotted an empty seat in her line of sight; the train had already started moving, so it seemed temporarily unoccupied. Yu Sangwan thought for a moment and walked over to sit down.
"Hey! Move over, get up!"
It was the same middle-aged woman from before, talking to Yu Sangwan as if it were her right. Yu Sangwan opened her mouth, puzzled as she looked at her.
"What are you looking at? I’m talking to you!" The woman shouted loudly, pushing her teenage son towards Yu Sangwan with a justified tone, "You have a standing ticket too, right? I saw you earlier. In that case, shouldn’t you give a seat to the child?"
A child... Yu Sangwan looked at the boy who was almost as tall as her and felt speechless.
She was in a bad mood but knew life wasn’t easy for them, so she held back, "Alright, you sit."
"Hmph." The woman took advantage and still didn’t stop her sharp tongue, "Wearing something like a rich woman, are you here to experience the life of the common people? Pretentious!"
Yu Sangwan heard these words too. Her body stiffened slightly, and she raised her face, her eyes growing even more sour. Everything she was experiencing now was a constant reminder of... how vast the gap was between her and Lu Jinxuan. She was born riding crowded green trains with these people, whereas Lu Jinxuan could get on a private jet, going anywhere he wanted.
With no place to sit, Yu Sangwan walked to the junction of the carriages, leaning against the car wall. Her mind couldn’t stop, filled with Gong Xueyan wearing Lu Jinxuan’s shirt, and Lu Jinxuan appearing freshly out of the shower...
"Sigh..."
Yu Sangwan sighed and hugged her arms tightly.
...
"Young Master."
"The train just left?"
"Yes, Miss Yu was dressed very distinctively, very eye-catching, it should be her without a doubt."
Lu Jinxuan nodded slightly, his expression calm, but no one dared to doubt his words, "Stop the train!"
"Yes, the notification has already been sent."
...
Leaning against the car wall, the train hadn’t been running long before Yu Sangwan felt it come to a sudden stop, prompting discussions among the passengers inside.
"What’s going on? Why did we stop suddenly?"
"Orders from above." The conductor was explaining.
"When will we depart?"
"We have to wait for further notice."
The conductor offered a simple explanation, but together with the train officer, it seemed they were searching for something. Yu Sangwan glanced over, thinking this operation was likely related to some case, aiming to handle it discreetly and avoid alarming the passengers.
"..." The conductor approached Yu Sangwan, staring at her for a couple of moments.
Yu Sangwan was puzzled, why was he looking at her?
"Is there something wrong?"
The conductor smiled and shook his head, saying something to the train officer beside him, who nodded, "Understood."
Yu Sangwan watched them walk away, completely baffled. The train soon resumed its journey, swaying gently, as if nothing had happened.
Until...
Footsteps approached from behind. Yu Sangwan felt someone pull her arm, then she was drawn into a familiar embrace. The scent of green wood made her want to cry instantly. Lu Jinxuan’s heartbeat was fast, and he spoke cautiously, "I told you not to leave me."
"Let go!"
Yu Sangwan pushed against his chest with her hands, but it was futile. Her eyes were already red, "You lied to me too! You and that Gong Xueyan..."
"You want me to kiss you right here?" Lu Jinxuan interrupted her, his hot breath washing over her face, and he wasn’t just saying it.
Yu Sangwan was stunned, suffocating with frustration, "How can you be so unreasonable?"
"I’ll explain." Lu Jinxuan couldn’t bear to see her upset. Now, with his pride set aside, for her, he’d do things he’d never done before. For instance, boarding this green train for the first time just to explain.
Holding her face in his hands, Lu Jinxuan caressed her smooth, delicate skin without a single tiny pore in sight.
"I admit, it was my mistake. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have fallen for their trap. They tricked me into wetting my clothes. I was afraid you’d overthink if you saw, so I wanted to wash up and change. I didn’t expect they had set a trap for me!"
Yu Sangwan gazed at him, unsure if she should believe him.
"Don’t trust me?" Lu Jinxuan guessed her thoughts and pulled her into the nearby restroom, "Come in! I’ll prove it to you!"
"What are you doing?" Yu Sangwan struggled in a panic, "If you have something to say, say it outside, why go into the restroom?"
The bathroom door was locked, and without further words, Lu Jinxuan grabbed her hand and reached for his belt.
Yu Sangwan panicked, "You... don’t be indecent on the train!"
"How else will you believe me?" Lu Jinxuan’s deep eyes showed no deceit, "Wanwan, I’m a man. All my energy is for you... there’s none left for other women. You still don’t know that?"
Yu Sangwan’s cheeks heated up, and she quickly turned her head.
His energy... she knew it all too well. Today, he didn’t want her just once.
"Wanwan, do you want to? Here... with you, I can."
"No!" Yu Sangwan cried out in alarm, her cheeks burning red, "Don’t you have any decency?"
Lu Jinxuan smiled, "Then... do you believe me now?"
Yu Sangwan pursed her lips tightly, her delicate brows knit in thought, "Your life, I feel... is so far from mine. Even being just an unengaged partner already makes me... I’m afraid I can’t handle it. Lu Jinxuan, have you ever thought that maybe we..."
Lu Jinxuan’s face darkened, but he didn’t stop her from continuing.
Yu Sangwan sensed his mood change and paused.
"Why aren’t you continuing? Go on, what’s ’maybe’?" Lu Jinxuan’s breathing grew rapid, his grip on her wrist slowly tightening. If she dared to say she wanted to break up, what... what would he do?
