Lu Jingchen wailed with pain. He covered his lower body with his hands and glared angrily at the culprit who ran away. He gritted his teeth and shouted, “Yan. Xi. Ruo!”
Cold sweat appeared on his forehead. After that sharp pain slowly eased, Lu Jingchen straightened his body. He was about to chase after her when a soft voice suddenly sounded behind him. “CEO Lu.”
Lu Jingchen turned and saw Chu Keren, who was walking toward him. His ferocious complexion suddenly softened a little. “Isn’t your stomach feeling unwell? Why didn’t you rest in the room?”
“I’m worried about your head injury. Does it still hurt now? Why don’t we take a speedboat back and go to the hospital for a checkup?” Chu Keren frowned and looked at Lu Jingchen worriedly. Yan Xiruo was ruthless enough. Her husband had just touched her and she was actually so cruel to him!
Chu Keren’s soft and delicate voice, coupled with her worried and concerned expression, made Lu Jingchen’s heart melt instantly. Thinking of the Yan Xiruo who was either hitting him or kicking him, he felt that Chu Keren was simply a reincarnated goddess. Not only was she as pretty as a flower, but she was also exceptionally kind-hearted.
“I’m fine. I’ll do a check after going back tomorrow.” Lu Jingchen gave Chu Keren a smile.
Chu Keren walked to Lu Jingchen and held his elbow lightly with her soft hands. “CEO Lu, I’ll send you back to your room to rest!”
Chu Keren seemed to have come out in a hurry. She was still wearing a pink silk nightdress with a deep V neckline.
Lu Jingchen’s eyes darkened and his Adam’s apple moved.
…
Yan Xiruo wrapped both hands around her chest. Tears were in her eyes, and she felt extremely uncomfortable in her heart, not only because of Lu Jingchen but also because of herself.
If Lu Jingchen hadn’t jumped up the stage back then, she would definitely have been bewitched by Ye Juemo! At that moment, she felt as if her heart was going to jump out of her chest! That was definitely a bad sign!
She had obviously not yet removed Lu Jingchen completely from her heart. Why couldn’t she resist the charms of Ye Juemo? She hated herself that way!
One look at Ye Juemo and it was clear he was a man she couldn’t afford to provoke. He obviously knew she was married, yet he kept approaching her. If he were to say he fell in love with her at first sight, she wouldn’t believe it!
He didn’t even fancy a pretty girl from the upper-class society like Ye Shasha, what more her?
She hammered her throbbing head. As she put down her hand, a brute force suddenly attacked her from behind. Before she could react, her wrist was firmly clasped by someone.
The person walked very quickly and she was almost dragged away by him. She only managed to break free from his big palm when she arrived in his room. She rubbed her sore wrist and frowned. “Mr. Ye, let’s put an end to this!”
Ye Juemo looked at the pale Yan Xiruo with his deep and dark eyes. He rubbed his thin lips lightly and didn’t say anything. The strong and powerful aura made her feel a little apprehensive.
Yan Xiruo’s hands by her side were tightly clenched into fists. After taking a deep breath, she looked into his dark eyes, which looked like he could swallow her whole. “Mr. Ye, I have to admit that you’re an exceptionally outstanding man. If I were still single, I would definitely succumb to your charm! However, I’m already married. No matter how much of an a*shole my husband is, it can’t change the fact that I’m already married. I can’t be like him, seeking momentary excitement and pleasure outside.” Actually, she was really afraid. Every time he touched her, although she was resistant, she didn’t resent it. If she had more contact with him, she couldn’t ensure that she would still be able to withdraw from him.
Ye Juemo looked at Yan Xiruo coldly with his deep and dark pupils. He was rubbing his thin lips lightly, as if sharpening a knife. His face looked unusually stern and cold.
Yan Xiruo didn’t allow herself to be timid. This man was like poppy — once he got to her, it would be hard for her to get rid of him. Thus, it was a wise move to draw the boundaries clearly between them before she fell deeper.
An unknown time later, just when Yan Xiruo felt that she had nowhere else to hide from his cold gaze, he said coldly, “You have overestimated yourself. I came over just to give this to you.” After throwing an exquisite bag with a jewelry box in front of her, he turned around and left.
Yan Xiruo withdrew her gaze only when his tall and cold back had disappeared from sight.
She sneered and laughed at herself.
She knew that a man like him wouldn’t be serious about her. He treated her well only on a whim!
