In the darkness, the man’s heartfelt words.
A hoarse voice tinged with tenderness.
Such a deep confession, Lu He was moved to tears: "I really couldn’t imagine that a rascal like you could say such cheesy love words to me."
Zhao Jun: "..." Can words spoken be taken back??
She giggled: "Haha, back then you used to throw apples at me, made me clean the latrine, scrub the toilet, clean the stables... you never thought there’d be a day like this, did you? For all the torment you put me through, I’m going to get back at you one day, I hold grudges a lot."
These words really sound theatrical~
"How do you plan to take revenge?" Zhao Jun felt a bit uneasy, having just realized he blurted out a lot of sweet talk—was he being too eager, too attentive...?
Lu He thought he was backing down, so she pushed him away with both hands and feet, yelling: "Are you scared? Let go of me, from now on, we’ll go our separate ways, after I heal you, I’ll disappear, and you’ll never see me again in your life."
Another burst of commotion.
The simple canopy bed with its hardboard had four posts and four rods, adorned with simple bamboo and chrysanthemum carvings. It swayed slightly with the movement, yet luckily fair-priced and of good quality, it made no creaky noise that would cause misunderstanding.
The scaffold bed in the Qingfeng Inn’s ground floor room, the first choice for couples, lovers, spouses, confidants — you deserve it, silence speaks volumes...
"No, no, no, you can take revenge on me however you want in the future; come on, don’t wait, get your revenge now."
She had one injured hand, and the man grabbed her other good hand, guiding it to hit his face.
Careful lest the scar frighten her, even guiding her hand to strike the better half of his face~
His demeanor of enduring grievances was quite apparent.
Lu He lost her temper: "Alright, alright, let’s not talk about this for now, heal your legs first, who would want to marry someone who can’t walk."
Pausing, she continued:
"The scar on your face should be healed too, so you won’t look too bad as the groom."
Her fair and tender cheeks flushed red, she didn’t explicitly agree, but her words clearly showed: I’m willing.
Zhao Jun also sensed it, his masculine eyes reddened, almost as if about to cry, but he held back, not wanting to seem too weak before her, as he still needed to protect her in the future.
The two cuddled to sleep, engaging in the legendary covered-in-blanket pure chatting~
The next day, when the rooster crowed, dawn was about to break, the bustling sound of passersby on the street came in, Lu He drowsily woke up in the Eldest Young Master’s embrace.
Room on the ground floor was cheap, located on the first floor.
Wealthy people pursuing lighting, ventilation, and comfort would choose the sky-room.
Sky-rooms were located on the second floor or higher, with excellent soundproofing, the noise of passersby on the street not as apparent as on the first floor.
Tired from driving all day, she was reluctant to wake up early, burrowed into the man’s side, and dozed off again.
This sleep lasted directly till noon, with the scorching sun overhead.
After sleeping off the fatigue, she was finally satisfied, half-closed her eyes and slowly opened them.
With her uninjured hand, she reached for the side, the man’s slender waist fell into her arm’s embrace, and she held him~
The beauty was not yet fully awake, her drowsy demeanor exuding innocence, Zhao Jun moved closer to her, tightened her arm around his waist...
He was eager for her to take liberties with him.
Lu He blinked her eyes until she fully woke up, examined the waist she was embracing, immediately let go, retreated a foot back, and leaned against the bed rail of the canopy bed.
