Lu Zhaoyang sighed quietly in relief. She said, “Tang Mu, my brother was only trying to make things easy for me during our last gathering. Please don’t tell anyone about this.”
“Sure, sure, I won’t tell!”
Tang Mu could not help but took another long look at Huo Yunting. The man looked absolutely charming. Even just leaning in his seat doing nothing, he could feel the air of nobility surrounding him.
He could never hope to achieve this level in his life.
Mo Shan looked at the smile on Lu Zhaoyang’s face and felt puzzled.
If she did not know the truth, she would have believed them.
Their marriage was impossible. Huo Yunting hated Xue Yuming, so he would never marry her daughter.
However, it seemed that Lu Zhaoyang was far more important to him than she had imagined. She could not understand why Huo Yunting would help Lu Zhaoyang in any way.
Dinner ended on a seemingly happy note, but in fact, it was an unpleasant affair.
At the exit of the restaurant, Lu Zhaoyang could not wait to leave the place, but Huo Yunting followed behind her and said, “I’ll send you home.”
“No need. I’ll order a taxi.”
“That’s not safe. It’s only right for a brother to send his sister home.” Huo Yunting nudged her toward his car. “Get to the car first.”
He sounded light and casual, but Lu Zhaoyang knew that no amount of arguing would change his mind.
She slowly headed for the Rolls Royce that the valet had driven over.
Once Lu Zhaoyang was gone, Mo Shan’s pulse picked up. As the yellow light in the restaurant fell on Huo Yunting’s flawless profile, it lent him a more gentle impression.
She looked up at him and said sweetly, “Brother Yunting…”
Huo Yunting put one hand in his pocket and looked down at her. “You’re in a rushed mood. Who’s agreed to marry you now?”
“Brother Yunting, I really want to marry you. I’ve said that before when I was a child! You were unhappy with the announcement of our engagement last time, so I thought to discuss with you first before we make our own announcement, what do you think?”
“And I remember saying I’m a businessman. Let’s discuss this matter later.”
Huo Yunting made his way to his car without looking back.
His Rolls Royce disappeared swiftly in her view. The cool night breeze blew gently on her beige long dress.
Mo Shan walked grudgingly toward her car.
…
Lu Zhaoyang sat at the passenger seat beside the river anxiously, hoping that Tang Mu would not spread the word about her situation.
Huo Yunting’s hands were firm on the steering wheel when he took a quick look at her and said, “Instead of worrying about the unknown future, why don’t you think about how to make me happy?”
“I think you’re quite happy right now.” Her nervousness was choking her, and yet here he was acting like he had nothing to do with it!
‘I’m feeling alright, but I’ll be even happier if you come over and kiss me.”
“You should focus on driving. Lust can be hazardous.”
The car made an abrupt turn and stopped by the roadside. Huo Yunting inched his face closer toward her.
What is this man thinking?!
She did not want to delay their journey home, so she closed her eyes and pecked on his lips.
Of course Huo Yunting was not so easily satisfied. He reached out and put his hand behind her head!
“That’s hardly enough. Do it like this…”
Their lips molded into each other for a passionate kiss.
