Shen Manjun’s eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at Lu Tianxing, who held her with one arm and covered her mouth with the other. A frantic impulse surged through her heart—this bastard was too bold, not only teasing her but now even stalking her. She swore that once she left the changing room, Lu Tianxing was going to pay.
Shen Manjun’s pretty face was filled with rage, and she wished she could shoot Lu Tianxing through the heart with arrows from her eyes as she began to struggle violently.
The more she struggled, the more Lu Tianxing felt an intense stimulation arise, and immediately there was an unwelcome change.
Shen Manjun seemed to realize something, her body suddenly shivering, a strong flush of embarrassment and anger spreading across her face as she glared viciously at Lu Tianxing, looking like she wanted to tear him to pieces.
Her mind was clear, and she knew exactly what that thing was.
Lu Tianxing laughed awkwardly and explained very seriously, "Don’t misunderstand, I’m not just a pervert. It just so happens that robbers arrived outside, and I had no choice but to hide in here. I didn’t know you were inside, rest assured, I promise not to do anything inappropriate. Once the police leave, I’ll go out immediately. Also, don’t blame me for not warning you in advance, don’t move carelessly, otherwise, if something really happens between a man and a woman alone, I won’t take responsibility."
Shen Manjun couldn’t speak because Lu Tianxing was covering her mouth, so she could only let out muffled noises while glaring at him with furious eyes.
"I know you’re very angry, but I was really left with no other option. I can let you go, but you absolutely must not shout."
Shen Manjun nodded her head.
Seeing that Shen Manjun agreed with him, Lu Tianxing breathed a long sigh of relief and slowly released the hand covering Shen Manjun’s mouth, then started to move back.
Just as Lu Tianxing was stepping back, a sudden change erupted. A cold gleam flashed in Shen Manjun’s eyes, and with lightning-fast speed, her right knee shot up in a beautiful knee strike.
It was quick, accurate, and fierce, embodying the very essence of these three principles.
"Damn, she’s trying to disable me with this move, how come all women know this technique, who taught them? I really want to drag him out and flog him a hundred times."
Lu Tianxing was startled, reached out to grab Shen Manjun’s raised foot, pressed his body forward, and pinned her against the wall, the two of them once again pressed closely together.
Shen Manjun’s body trembled, feeling both ashamed and enraged, her beautiful eyes revealing endless murderous intent, as if she wished to tear Lu Tianxing limb from limb.
Struggling to suppress the pounding in her chest, Shen Manjun looked at Lu Tianxing with a cold gaze.
"Heh heh, it’s a misunderstanding, I told you not to hit me, but you just wouldn’t believe it."
With a forced chuckle, Lu Tianxing reluctantly released his hold on Shen Manjun, his body slowly backing away.
Shen Manjun indifferently swept her gaze over Lu Tianxing, and without regarding the stare he had fixed on her, she slowly bent down and dressed herself once more.
As Shen Manjun moved, her figure displayed itself perfectly before Lu Tianxing’s eyes, triggering a myriad of fanciful thoughts.
By the time Shen Manjun turned around again, Lu Tianxing couldn’t help but inwardly praise, "Miss Shen is indeed a natural enchantress, emitting a mature charm through and through. With slightly upturned lips and a smile that’s both hidden and apparent, her beautiful eyes seem to flirt and reproach simultaneously, as though filled with intense fury and yet also coquettishly playing with her man, standing there with the power to devastate any man completely."
"Lu Tianxing, do you find it amusing to stalk me? If you wish to have me, you don’t need to stoop to such despicable means! All it does is make me despise you even more."
Shen Manjun crossed her arms, looking at Lu Tianxing with a cold sneer, her tone laden with strong mockery.
Upon hearing this, Lu Tianxing was immediately displeased, and he responded irritably, "Despicable means? Miss Shen, I admit you are very beautiful, a natural beauty indeed, but I have not sunk so low as to stalk you specifically. There are countless ways I could get what I want from you without resorting to such tactics. On the contrary, Miss Shen, I came to Xiangjiang, and you followed me here; I came shopping at this mall, and you coincidentally happen to shop in this store too. And what’s more, you change clothes without locking the door. Tell me, do you have ulterior motives, trying to seduce and deceive a decent man like me?"
"You are truly shameless."
Shen Manjun was bitterly angry at being accused in return. She had no idea that Lu Tianxing had returned to Xiangjiang. After sending Qiaoqiao back to Beijing, she planned to come to Xiangjiang to relax her heart, which had been teased by Lu Tianxing, by going on a shopping spree.
However, Shen Manjun never expected to encounter Lu Tianxing again here, and what’s more, to have this guy see her body in its entirety. She had suffered a significant loss this time.
"Shameless? Miss Shen, you should speak with conscience. How have I been shameless to you? I’ve told you, I barged in here only to avoid the robbers outside."
"Robbers? Do you think everyone else is an idiot? Which robber would be so foolish as to rob a mall, especially on the first floor? Lu Tianxing, I despise you. You’re nothing but a total scumbag."
Shen Manjun scoffed, not believing a word Lu Tianxing said.
Lu Tianxing was momentarily at a loss for words. Shen Manjun was right, indeed no robber would be foolish enough to rob a mall because those people had come after him. But how could he explain that to Shen Manjun? Could he say that these people wanted to kill him, and after he killed them, he had come to hide from the police?
That would be truly bizarre if Shen Manjun believed that.
However, hearing Shen Manjun’s words, Lu Tianxing couldn’t help but admire the shop owner’s foresight, making even a small dressing room so formidable with excellent soundproofing. Despite the chaos outside, not a whisper could be heard inside, showing remarkable attention to detail. It was especially accommodating to customers who enjoyed excitement, for if they couldn’t resist doing something enjoyable in the dressing room, no one outside would likely know.
"What, run out of things to say?"
Shen Manjun sneered coldly, taunting, "Lu Tianxing, you really go to great lengths for me, don’t you? Acting as if you didn’t see me at the airport to get my attention, now secretly tracking me and even bursting into the dressing room to play the hooligan. You’re done for. Wait till I call the police; I’ll make sure you spend your life in prison."
Lu Tianxing was momentarily taken aback by Shen Manjun’s words, then a mischievous smile appeared on his face while his gaze assessed Shen Manjun from top to bottom.
"What do you think you’re doing?"
Seeing the expression on Lu Tianxing’s face, Shen Manjun felt a jolt of apprehension in her heart, a bad premonition rising within as she instinctively crossed her arms defensively, watching Lu Tianxing warily.
