Tang Xinluo, who was far away in Country M, had no idea about what was happening in A City.
Lu Yuchen originally planned to stay in Country M for only a week. In the end—as he was too busy, he delayed for one more week before they went back.
Currently, Tang Xinluo was sitting on a private plane back to A City. She and Lu Yuchen had not seen each other in two weeks.
Tang Xinluo secretly sized up the man beside her, and for some reason, she felt that Lu Yuchen changed.
His handsome features still remained the same; even the way Lu Yuchen sat by the window and furrowed his eyebrows at the laptop. The tiny lights shone down warmly on him, wrapping him in elegant gold light.
Just that, he looked much colder than he did two weeks ago.
Her vision had already recovered completely so even the tiniest of changes in his facial expression would not escape her eyes.
This morning, Lu Yuchen suddenly sent someone to fetch her at the hospital, without even discussing or giving her a heads-up beforehand, as if he was treating a stranger coldly.
When he reached the airport and saw her, Lu Yuchen’s appearance was so cold that it made her wonder why.
He clearly treated her that way… when they came from A City.
However, when he saw her now, he just coldly nodded at her and buried himself with work. Since the very start, he did not even look her straight in the eye.
Why was this so?
Tang Xinluo’s cheek leaned on her hand, and she looked at him side-ways. Her peach eyes were wandering lively on Lu Yuchen’s face.
After being ‘newly-wed’ of two weeks, she felt her ‘husband’s’ coldness. When the airplane landed and they returned to A City, would the man suddenly tell her that he started to regret and wanted to divorce her?
By that time—even with the large sum of break-up fee, she was still at a disadvantage.
If she could not take revenge against the people that humiliated her and take back everything from the Tang family—no matter how much money she was given, it was not what she wanted.
After brushing her long hair behind her ear, Tang Xinluo undid her safety belt and stood up.
The plane flying through mid-air was very stable, but when Tang Xinluo walked past Lu Yuchen, the plane suddenly shook.
At first, she just wanted to go check on Lu Yuchen’s weird behavior. However, after the shake, Tang Xinluo fell on Lu Yuchen without hesitation. Then, a big hand held her small waist.
Lu Yuchen finally raised his eyebrows and looked at her straight in the eye… for the first time in two weeks.
“Be careful,” he said, but his voice was clear and distant.
It was weird, too weird.
Tang Xinluo could stand properly after he helped her up. However, because of the distant tone in his voice, for some reason; she leaned towards him again.
Her center of gravity was not proper, and she successfully slid into his arms.
“Oh, sorry… I slipped.”
Tang Xinluo lay on him coincidentally, and her face leaned right on his chest.
There was a really clear perfume smell which did not belong to him, or her, that wafted into her nose.
It was a woman’s perfume smell that first smelled like pear, then the sky, and finally, patchouli.
Tang Xinluo’s nose was very alert; perhaps it was because her vision was not good before so she would never forget the things she smelled.
She remembered the smell of the perfume; it was a limited edition perfume from a luxurious brand. One bottle would cost around three thousand China dollars or five hundred M-Country currency.
There were very few women who could have this type of perfume in A City, but there was such smell on Lu Yuchen’s collar.
So… she lifted her body up and looked at Lu Yuchen.
Was this the reason why he was cold to her?
Suddenly, Tang Xinluo felt that things had become much more interesting. Master Lu really had much energy to be able to cheat outside after eating in.
