Indulging Mrs. Lu

Chapter 1049 - 1046: This - Is Void

Leng Shuangshuang pressed her lips together, saying nothing.

He said again, "You promised to marry me. You can’t leave."

"...I didn’t promise." She didn’t deny it; indeed, she did not promise him that day.

Lu Jincheng was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said, "You did. You said you are my fiancée."

Leng Shuangshuang looked at him in disbelief, only to see him gazing at her firmly, as if he would continue to argue with her as long as she kept saying no.

So, is he planning on being unreasonable?

Thinking of this possibility, Leng Shuangshuang felt both amused and a bit of a headache. Was this the first time in Lu Jincheng’s life that he had done such a thing?

Earlier, she heard him calling her as she turned a corner. She thought she was hallucinating until he called twice more. Those two calls stopped her from taking another step.

As for her earlier lie about changing her flight, it was just a trick. Her flight had long since taken off, with her parents and Little Sun on board, but without saying a word, she hadn’t boarded the plane. She didn’t know how they were doing right now.

Seeing Leng Shuangshuang remain silent, Lu Jincheng suddenly released her hand. Before she could react, he cupped her face and pressed a kiss against her lips.

This...

Leng Shuangshuang’s mind went blank immediately.

Lu Jincheng actually kissed her!

He actually kissed her in such a public place!

Lu Jincheng noticed that Leng Shuangshuang did not resist, so he deepened the kiss. Every time he saw her, he wanted to do this, but for the sake of face, he tortured himself instead.

If only he had figured it out sooner—that if he wanted to kiss her, he should just do it. How wonderful that would be.

However, he couldn’t hold it for long because Leng Shuangshuang was pushing him away forcefully. For fear of hurting her and getting his own foot hurt, he had to let her go.

Regaining her freedom, Leng Shuangshuang wiped her mouth hurriedly, glaring at him: "Lu Jincheng, how could you be so shameless?" Privately, it was one thing to sleep with her when drunk; now, he even kissed her in such a public setting.

"If being shameless keeps you by my side."

Leng Shuangshuang felt a blockage in her heart. What does he mean by saying that being shameless can keep her by his side? He has always been shameless, pretending nothing happened after taking advantage of her. If that’s not shameless, what is?

"If you have nothing else, I’ll leave now, otherwise..."

"Hiss~" Lu Jincheng tried to stand up, but the pain in his foot was too intense. He sank back down to the ground, involuntarily sucking in a breath due to the pain.

Leng Shuangshuang, who had just turned away, turned back again because of his exclamation. She looked at him worriedly, "Are you okay? Should I call an ambulance for you?"

He shook his head, gesturing for her to squat down.

Thinking he needed help, Leng Shuangshuang walked back over and squatted down, only to be enveloped in a strong embrace just before she could kneel down completely.

She was frustrated, trying to break free from his hold, but heard him murmur, "Shuang’er, please don’t go, okay?"

"... Why?"

Why?

Lu Jincheng thought about it, but couldn’t find a reason that would convince himself, let alone convince Leng Shuangshuang to stay. He seemed to have encountered a huge problem, his well-shaped eyebrows deeply furrowed, curling into a "川" character.

After a long while, he spoke slowly, but it wasn’t an answer to Leng Shuangshuang’s question.

He said, "I don’t have so many reasons, I just know I don’t want to leave you. Just the thought of returning to a life without you makes every part of me ache. Xinyun once said, if you like someone, you wish you could tie them to your side, never apart for twenty-four hours."
