Chapter 510 - 519 I’m Very Jealous
She offered just the right amount of warmth, but she had to curb her desires, unwilling to fully possess or see resentment in her eyes. Perhaps this distance is better.Inside the room, Lu Qing’s face was dark. Qin Miaomiao secretly observed his expression while chewing on an apple.
"You should know Joanna’s intentions, right?"
"I know. What’s wrong?" The source of thɪs content is novel_fіre.net
"If you know, how dare you stay so close to her?"
Qin Miaomiao looked innocent, "But Qiao hasn’t confessed to me, nor has she acted inappropriately. She treats me as a friend, and we interact like friends. Besides, she’s not a man and doesn’t exude that unique male sense of danger, so I can’t bring myself to guard against her."
Lu Qing sat down on the edge of the bed, his eyes flickering with a hint of danger, staring at her.
It must be said, she was remarkably skilled in handling relationships.
Ninth Uncle and Xiao Chen, though family, placed an exceptional level of importance on her—beyond the bounds of normal familial affection. If mishandled, such feelings could become strange!
Yet she had the ability to leash all emotions within the confines of family bonds. She understood this boundary all too well.
Even with Joanna, despite the other party harbored different emotions, when they were together, Joanna displayed notable restraint, hesitated, and cherished their unique way of interacting. Once changed, that relationship would become hard to bear.
Having a wife like this, Lu Qing felt exhausted.
Unable to bear it any longer, he spoke up, "Qin Miaomiao!"
"What now?"
"You’re too much."
Qin Miaomiao snorted softly, "I’m too much? Are you annoyed with me now because of that dream?"
"Why are we talking about that again? That was something from your past life and has nothing to do with you now."
"You really don’t mind it at all?"
"Compared to having you here with me, those things mean nothing."
Qin Miaomiao laughed and hugged his waist with her arms, "Isn’t that it then? What are you still fussing about? Husband, I can promise you, there won’t be any emotional entanglements, not with men, not with women. If any feelings arise, don’t worry. I can handle them all by myself without you having to intervene."
Be it Li Li, Rong Lan, or anyone else, there’s no need for him to step in; she could deal with all of it by herself.
She loved him, and at least in matters of affection, she would never let him suffer even the slightest grievance.
In their world of two, she would tolerate no intrusion from a third.
Lu Qing looked at her face, his hand brushed against her cheek. He spoke softly:
"You shielding your Ninth Uncle from a bullet—that matter really bothers me."
"You’re jealous?"
"Yes."
Qin Miaomiao’s eyes flashed with understanding. She grabbed his hand in return and said, word by word:
"If the person facing danger was you, I would also shield you from a bullet without hesitation. That, you shouldn’t doubt."
Lu Qing instead played with the palm of her hand, his gaze at her carried a suffocating intensity. He spoke slowly:
"No. Even if it’s me, I wouldn’t want you to shield me. I want you to be safe. Not for anyone, should you ever recklessly put yourself in harm’s way. Do you understand?"
Qin Miaomiao stared into his deep eyes, as if catching a glimpse of the fear hidden deep within.
"Lu Qing..."
"To me, you are the most important. The rest doesn’t matter. I cannot tolerate you sacrificing yourself for others, don’t you get it?"
