No one could remain calm.
One could truly say they were beset by a whirl of thoughts and a flood of emotions.
Lu Jing lay in bed, tossing and turning restlessly, feeling uncomfortable in every way.
Finally, he sat up straight.
Someone, sharp-eared, heard the sound of feet hitting the floor and abruptly stopped typing on the keyboard.
After hesitating for about two seconds, he closed the laptop and rose from his chair.
At that moment, Lu Jing had just taken a bottle of water from the refrigerator and hadn’t even started to open it when a man’s voice suddenly filled the room:
"You shouldn’t drink that; it’s icy."
"Can’t you make some noise in advance?"
Who do you want to scare by suddenly making a noise in the middle of the night?
He truly needed some ice-cold water to calm his shock.
However, before he knew it, the person was already in front of him, snatching the water away and heading to the kitchen.
Lu Jing watched, twitching at the corner of his mouth.
It wasn’t long before Jiang Ye emerged from the kitchen, the icy water now replaced with water at room temperature, and he considerately opened the bottle for him:
No one lives here regularly, so there’s nothing to boil water with.
Make do for now, and we can buy it later when we have time. Thɪs chapter is updated by NoveIꜰire.net
Or, if you have time, maybe you can go check it out yourself?"
Lu Jing rolled his eyes:
The man didn’t seem upset but instead smiled:
"Then I’ll go check when I’m on vacation." His tone was full of indulgence.
Lu Jing didn’t bother to respond.
He took a couple of sips of water and was about to head back to his room.
But he hadn’t walked far when the person followed him.
By the time Lu Jing realized something was off, he was already at the door of his room.
He had just turned his head when he was suddenly pushed inside, too quick to react.
’Bang!’ The door forcefully closed.
Of course, the man followed him inside.
You liar, what happened to being busy with work?
A man’s mouth lies like a ghost!
If a man’s word could be trusted, pigs could climb trees!
Suddenly pressed down, Lu Jing almost couldn’t catch his breath.
Luckily, the man just pressed down and did nothing more.
But then he spoke, and Lu Jing wished he could sew his mouth shut with a needle.
"Lu’er, you’ve been tossing and turning for so long. What, can’t sleep without me?"
Hearing this, Lu Jing’s eyes nearly popped out of his head:
"Don’t spout nonsense; who needs you?"
Wasn’t it just because he had returned to this place after six years, feeling extremely conflicted?
"Alright alright, I know Lu’er doesn’t need me, but I need you, okay?"
"Go to hell, just get off me!"
Such cursing showed just how annoyed he was.
Then, Jiang Ye finally got up and instead lay down beside the woman, grasping her hand securely with his uninjured one, begging pitifully:
Look, I’m powerless even if I had the will right now, right?"
Being driven by lust depends on the occasion, especially since one hand was still in a cast; how could he possibly do anything?
One mishap and he might end up in emergency in the middle of the night.
So, better leave it for another day.
Of course, Lu Jing understood, and his cheeks quickly blushed as he snapped:
He had seen shameless, but never this level of utter shamelessness!
He should never trust a punctuation mark again!
But obviously, there was no help for tonight.
Lu Jing did not see the conspiratorial, successful grin spreading across the other person’s face at that moment.
