Chapter 98: Xu Junxi, Let Her Go
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
If it were anyone else who would’ve come in, she would be embarrassed.
“I want to go home.” Ning Qing sniffled her nose and she pouted.
Lu Shaoming saw that she spoke, his tension was finally at ease. “Okay, let’s go home. I’ll turn around while you put on your clothes.” the man said.He was about to turn around when he heard, “Hey!” Ning Qing was extremely angry. She extended her arm to tug his sleeve. “I, how can I put on these clothes? That, you made it wet… My pants are white and would be transparent.”
Lu Shaoming turned around and looked. The girl was in a hurry to tug his sleeve and the blanket covering her body glided down and exposed her smooth shoulders. Her smooth fair skin was covered with hickeys.
One could easily imagine just how rough he had been earlier.
Lu Shaoming’s eyes grew dark and his Adam’s apple rolled again.
Ning Qing could tell that his expression was weird and she realized that she was exposed. She quickly covered herself with the blanket properly and cursed in her head, Monster.
“Do you have any clothes here? If you don’t, I’ll go and buy some. Wait for me in the room. I’ll come back very soon,” Lu Shaoming said in his hoarse voice.
“Mm.” Ning Qing nodded then she added, “Hurry up and come back.”…
Lu Shaoming left and Ning Qing slowly removed the blanket. She buckled her bra and put on her green lace shirt.
Lu Shaoming would likely be back in around fifteen minutes. She needed to clean herself up as she looked like she was in a fix.
Her butterfly wing-like eyelashes fanned as she closed her eyes and removed her dirty underwear. She couldn’t be naked and just put on her white pencil pants.
She was worried, so she tied her white jacket on her waist to block her lower body.
Then, she was at least presentable. She sat by the side of the bed and got off the bed.
Both her legs landed on the ground and she gasped in pain, psst. Besides her bruise that she had gotten from her grandma’s room, his tight grip earlier added more wounds to her waist.
Ning Qing cursed at the man in her heart again. She took her underwear and walked to the washroom. She threw the underwear into the dustbin and washed her face at the sink.
The girl in the mirror had rosy cheeks and a beautiful pair of crystal clear eyes. Although she was pouting, there was enchanting spring across her face.
In the mirror, the hickeys that the man had left on her neck were visible. Ning Qing gulped and she closed her eyes. The trembling feeling of when his rough hand in contact with hers was still there. Even such a calm man had difficulty controlling himself, and he panted in agony by her ears.
So wild.
Ning Qing bit her lower lip with her ivory-colored teeth. It’s too embarrassing.
Ning Qing was so ashamed that she wanted to dig a pit. Knock knock. Someone knocked on the door. So fast, Lu Shaoming’s already back?
Ning Qing quickly got out from the shower room and opened the door happily.
But, Xu Junxi was standing outside.
Ning Qing didn’t say anything and closed the door immediately.
However, Xu Junxi took a step forward and blocked it. A man and a woman’s strength were different, and Xu Junxi forcefully entered.
“Xu Junxi, what are you trying to do? We’ve got nothing to talk about. Get out!” Ning Qing said coldly.
Xu Junxi smiled tauntingly. When Ning Qing opened the door earlier, her eyes were filled with hope and gentleness. When she saw that it was him, she looked distant and on-guard.
Just how fickle-minded is this woman? She had come to like Lu Shaoming so much in just two month’s time?
Xu Junxi took a glance at the room. He had some drinks and his half-squinted his drunk eyes looked to the side and glanced Ning Qing’s strange outfit up and down skittishly. He laughed and asked, “You just did it with Lu Shaoming?”
His skittish glance made Ning Qing frown. However, she stood there as she replied coldly, “Don’t doubt it. Believe what you see!”
Xu Junxi’s face quickly turned gloomy. “Ning Qing, how could you be so slutty? You know that Lu Shaoming is rich so you couldn’t wait to climb into his head, huh?”
Ning Qing wasn’t angry but laughed. She said, “CEO Xu, aren’t you tired? How are you and I connected? Who are you to bother with whose bed I’m in? Would it be that you felt so great about yourself for saving me in Grandma’s room? If so, fine, I’ll thank you. Thank you. So, can you leave now?”
Then, Ning Qing picked up the faint scent of alcohol. She knitted her eyebrows and asked, “You drank before you came here? Get out, I will not converse with a drunkard!”
Xu Junxi’s chest started billowing. How could she play down on how he had saved her earlier? Did she forget that she shed tears for him?
When did she become a hedgehog that was covered in thorns before him? Yet, she was crying in Lu Shaoming’s arm and contributed so willingly for him.
Why?
Xu Junxi charged forward and pulled Ning Qing into his embrace. He muttered confusedly, “Ning Qing, please don’t talk to me like this. You cried for me earlier, you still love me.”
Ning Qing pushed Xu Junxi with all his strength but she couldn’t move him. She let both her hands drop as she said coldly with a smirk, “Xu Junxi, I hit my waist and I teared up because of the pain. I’m sorry if you misunderstood, but it had nothing to do with you.”
“No, you’re bullshitting me. Qingqing, I know you love me. I, I love you too. Let’s be together, I…”
“Xu Junxi,” Ning Qing cut him off, “don’t you know how much I hold you in contempt when I see you acting like this? Ning Yao saved you. You enjoyed her tenderness and brought her next to my room to do things but at the same time, you are holding onto me, not letting me go, constantly monitoring my contact with any other man. Actually, you’re mentally sick.
“Do you know who you really love? Do you know what the meaning of life is? I’ve known you for twenty years. You saved me in Grandma’s room, so I felt at ease around you at that moment. There is no reason that it ended between us in the first place other than the fact that you’re the one who disappointed me in our relationship! I’m in love with Lu Shaoming now, and I don’t owe you anything. So, please, stop disgusting me with your fickle-minded attempts. I, Ning Qing, am not a person that you can just have when you say you want me!”
“No, no,” Xu Junxi shook his head in agony, “You owe me, you’ll forever owe me. If you wouldn’t have stood me up back when we were eighteen, at our date at the park, I wouldn’t have needed to accept Ning Yao’s love. Don’t you know how much pain I’ve been in for all these years?”
“Heh, Hehe,” Ning Qing burst out in laughter. She pushed Xu Junxi away. “I’m sorry, I did not see how much pain you were in. All I could see was just how happy you were!”
Ning Qing didn’t know if she should be glad that she saved the man three years ago. Friends are only obvious in times of adversity. Otherwise, how could she see through Xu Junxi’s mask?
Then, Ning Qing walked to the door, “You’re not leaving, right? Fine, I’ll leave.”
She didn’t care how strange her outfit was, she didn’t want to spend another moment with the bastard.
As she was about to grab the doorknob, Xu Junxi hugged her from behind and kissed her hair. “Ning Qing, don’t go. Don’t say you love Lu Shaoming.”
When he kissed her, Ning Qing had goosebumps all over. She clenched her fist and said calmly, “Xu Junxi, let me repeat myself, let go!”
“No!” Xu Junxi kissed her harshly.
Ning Qing closed her eyes. He can’t blame her for being blunt.
Ning Qing wanted to land a heavy punch on the wound at the back of his head. But before she could, the door before her opened and Lu Shaoming was standing there.
Lu Shaoming was holding a paper bag on one hand. His deep slender eyes were like ink that splashed all over. He looked like he had been through wind and frost of the night, which made him appear very imposing.
Ning Qing was stunned. Quite the coincidence that he ran into such a scene.
“Xu Junxi, let go of her,” Lu Shaoming commanded. There was no anger in his deep voice but he uttered the words heavily with an air of authority.
When Xu Junxi saw that Lu Shaoming was here, he hugged Ning Qing even tighter. He laughed maliciously. “Lu Shaoming, how can your two months with Ning Qing be comparable to our twenty years? Ning Qing loves…”
Before Xu Junxi managed to say “me”, Lu Shaoming took a stride forward and landed a heavy punch right on the bridge of Xu Junxi’s nose.
Xu Junxi had no choice but to let go of Ning Qing. He staggered to the back and fell into the corner.
Ning Qing saw blood flowing from Xu Junxi’s nose, yet he still attempted to stand up. He tried but he inevitably collapsed onto the ground. He looked like he was in a fix.
Ning Qing covered her mouth with her hand as she looked at Lu Shaoming. The man was still holding the paper bag in one hand and had his other hand in his pocket. His elegant demeanor did not reflect the fact that he had just hit someone.
He was too fast. He punched and the enemy collapsed. His action was carried out in a split second, and Xu Junxi hadn’t the endurance nor the strength to counter-attack. He won with just a single hit.
It was Ning Qing’s first time seeing Lu Shaoming hit someone. She never thought a man like him could be so brutal, yet charming even when he fights.
As she was in a shock, Lu Shaoming pushed the paper bag into her arms and said unhappily, “Change in the bathroom. Let’s go home.”
Ning Qing knew that he wasn’t in a good mood form the look on his face. She quickly grabbed the change of clothes and went into the bathroom.
…
After they bid farewell to Ning Zhenguou, they got into the car. Lu Shaoming held the steering wheel and made a smooth turn. Then, the Bentley was on the highway.
“Why did you open the door for Xu Junxi to enter the room?” The man broke the silence first.
“I thought it was you so I opened the door. I closed the door when I saw it was Xu Junxi but he squeezed in. I am not as strong as him, I couldn’t stop him,” Ning Qing explained.
“Heh.” Lu Shaoming smiled. “So, he hugged and kissed you because you had no strength?”
Ning Qing could hear sarcasm and she looked sideways at him. The man’s determined face looked rather cold and his beautiful jaw looked as sharp as a blade.
Ning Qing’s anger was boiling. “Lu Shaoming, what do you mean? You think I intentionally let him kiss me? What kind of person do you think I am? It’s all your fault. You dirtied my clothes with those ridiculous things and I had no clothes. Otherwise, I would’ve left the room immediately!”
Lu Shaoming looked sideways at her and smirked maliciously. “Ridiculous? Is that how you describe our sons and daughters?”
Ning Qing, “…”
Ning Qing’s anger had to place to vent. She didn’t do anything wrong. How could he suspect her? Didn’t he know just how hurtful his doubts were?
Bad guy, so bad.
…
The Bentley stopped at the field by the villa. The two of them sat in silence, but no one got out of the car.
A minute later, Lu Shaoming unfastened his seatbelt and got out of the car. He walked around the car and opened the passenger side door. The girl was extremely angry, she puffed out her cheeks and humphed.
“Stop it, get out of the car.” Lu Shaoming sounded rigid.
“No, my leg hurts. I can’t walk any further,” Ning Qing emphasized on the word “leg”. She was mad at him and she wanted to embarrass him. She wanted him to be ashamed!
Lu Shaoming bent down to unfasten her seatbelt. Then, he carried her.
“Hey!” Ning Qing clenched her fist and punched him. They had yet to reconcile. Who let him carry her?
Her welled-up eyes caught his handsome face but he didn’t look at her. His determined face became gentler and his pursed thin lips seemed to indicate that he blamed himself.
Ning Qing’s scorn quickly softened. The autumn night was cold but his embrace was warm and made her feel reluctant to leave. She held his neck slowly as she buried herself in his embrace.
How could he do that? He forced her. Although he didn’t do it for real, she gave in. Can’t he make her feel better? Where did his usual gentleman-like demeanor go?
…
Lu Shaoming put Ning Qing on the bed in her bedroom. He then went to the bathroom and came back.
She kept her gaze low and the man’s black handmade leather shoes filled her sight. His hand touched her white jacket and he started taking off her clothes.
“What are you doing?” Ning Qing was frightened and rolled under the blanket to stay away from him.
“Your legs hurt, don’t they? I filled the tub and came to take off your clothes and bring you into the shower.”
“No, I’ll shower myself!” Ning Qing climbed down the bed and ran into the shower. She then locked the door.
Lu Shaoming watched the door shut tightly and there were helplessness and gentleness in his eyes. He leaned down to put her pair of pink furry slippers by the door. He exhorted gently, “Although there’s carpet, don’t run away barefooted. I leave your slippers outside. Put them on after your shower.”
She didn’t respond, and he could hear water running. She must be in the bathtub now.
Lu Shaoming leaned his back against the wall lazily as his Adam’s apple rolled. His throat and lips still felt dry.
He closed his eyes and reminisced about what happened on the bed earlier. She curled up into a ball under the blanket, fragrant and warm. She was like a piece of jade in his arm.
Her skin was fair. He took a glance and his self-control that he had always been proud of shattered. They agreed that they wouldn’t actually go that far, but he exceeded those boundaries.
Although it didn’t happen for real, it was unforgivable.
He knew that she wasn’t willing to. She was crying so badly as she trembled all over and moaned in pain.
