Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 1004 - 1001: Is It Really That Hard?

Leng Shuangshuang was telling him that having a relationship with him was not her choice.

Over the years, their way of interacting was like the left hand with the right hand, accustomed to each other’s presence, and very in sync. Even so, neither of them broke the unspoken understanding.

"Lu Jincheng, forget about that night."

Hearing this, Lu Jinyang’s dark eyes instantly turned cold, exuding a terrifying chill.

There was a moment of silence in the room, and Leng Shuangshuang’s hands were tightly clenched, showing her tension.

After a long while, he suddenly chuckled softly, "I was drinking that night too. As for what exactly happened, I don’t remember a thing."

Before Leng Shuangshuang could relax, he added, "Since neither of us wants to mention it, let’s just pretend nothing happened."

With that, he got up and walked out, leaving Leng Shuangshuang bewildered.

The sound of the door closing came from outside, and she slowly got up and walked out. Where was Lu Jincheng’s shadow in the living room?

The ice pack that was originally in his hands now lay quietly on the coffee table in the living room.

For some reason, Leng Shuangshuang suddenly felt very sad. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

What she meant by those words was that she didn’t want the two of them to become like enemies meeting because of that night. She wanted to say to forget about that night so they could remain good friends.

But he seemed to have misunderstood her meaning.

How could something that had already happened be treated as if it never did? Especially after that night...

Leng Shuangshuang’s eyes reddened, and she sorrowfully touched her own belly.

What should she do now?

-

After leaving Leng Shuangshuang’s apartment, Lu Jincheng returned to his car but didn’t immediately drive off. He opened the window and looked in the direction of her apartment, and he could see the lights on in her room.

When he chose this apartment for her, he had considered this issue. If he came over, she could see his car from her room, or when she stood on the balcony, he could also see her at a glance.

Thinking of this, a hint of pain appeared in Lu Jincheng’s eyes. Was it really so hard for her to speak softly?

A long, long time ago, he didn’t like Leng Shuangshuang. Just as when they were young, he found her dull, thought she was foolish, but later on, somehow, those feelings began to change.

He still remembered when they were in high school, he, Leng Shuangshuang, and Lu Xinyun were in the same school. Because she was extremely beautiful but didn’t like to talk, the boys at school called her the "Ice Beauty," and despite this, she still received many love letters.

Every time after school, Lu Xinyun would complain to him, saying Shuang’er was too popular, and it would be a big loss if someone else wooed her away.

Perhaps it was from that time that Lu Jincheng started to notice her. Whenever he ran into her, he would quietly take her backpack, pull out all the love letters inside, and dump them all in the trash. In the name of: "Spend less time on these unproductive things, and more on your studies."

At such times, Leng Shuangshuang would blush and whisper, "I was afraid of being seen by them, so I wanted to take them home to throw away."

For some reason, Lu Jincheng especially liked it when she didn’t hide her thoughts from him back then. Later she went overseas for studies, and she would often message him. Even if he didn’t reply, she would still send him messages.

Sometimes she would talk about interesting things she encountered there, sometimes she would ask him about academic questions. She would also call him, though infrequently, but on those calls, it was usually her talking and him listening.
