Originally, Du Yanqing didn't want to lean on Lu Juyan's body, but because his embrace was too warm, she unconsciously sank down. He panted slightly to prevent the fire from burning his body. The warmth from her memories echoed in her mind as her thoughts surged to the memory of the moment when she had just lost her breath, causing her to feel like a fish lacking water.
Lu Juyan, who did not receive Du Yanqing's reply, chose to remain silent. His gaze caught the reflection of her reflection in the window, and he noticed the slightest change in her expression.
When Du Yanqing's breathing calmed down, his gaze inadvertently fell on the couple by the street. An envious mood would usually arise in his heart, but at this moment, he faintly felt as if her heart was filled.
"If we're together, what about your fiancée?"
It was unknown if it was because of the vast crowd, or the unintentional flash of thought, that caused Du Yanqing to think about Xing Yiqiu's existence. Her mind resounded with Xing Yiqiu's magnanimous aura when he was serving tea to Lu Yuqiu, making her feel inexplicably ashamed. A sense of eating emerged from the bottom of his heart, and very naturally, he sat up straight, and asked Lu Juyan awkwardly.
It was not that Du Yanqing could not tolerate a single grain of sand from the bottom of his eyes, but he did not want her to be just a spare tire for others. The trauma she suffered on the way to her relationship brought her an unerasable sense of regret. She didn't want to touch it any longer because she was afraid of being hurt again.
"I don't feel anything for her."
Lu Juyan grabbed Du Yanqing's wrist, and placed Du Yanqing's palm in front of his heart as he spoke in a calm and collected manner. A solemn and resolute expression was revealed on his face. Compared to his usual grave and stern expression, it was much more trustworthy.
Sensing that Du Yanqing wanted to retract his hand, Lu Juyan intentionally increased the strength of her hand, to not allow her to move or retreat, even with a glance.
"I believe you, let me go first."
's ice-cold skin was completely covered with the heat that she felt from Lu Juyan, causing her to feel a scorching sensation as her heart beat erratically once again. She pretended to be calm as she looked into Lu Juyan's deep eyes, and made her request. His other hand tightly gripped the corner of his shirt, trying his best not to fall.
The few looks between the two made Lu Juyan gradually let go of his overbearing attitude. After being stared at for so long, even his ears were inexplicably red, but the bottom of his heart was filled with happiness.
Just when Lu Juyan thought that the two of them would be able to get together like this, Du Yanqing withdrew his gaze at the same time and coughed lightly. He feigned calmness as he raised a condition: "If chasing you for a week can move my heart, then I promise to stay together with you."
At this moment, her ice-cold arms were extremely hot. From the blood to her skin, every inch of her skin was suffused with a faint layer of red.
It was not that Du Yanqing was not willing to be together with Lu Juyan, but the relationship between the two of them was simply too fickle.
"Alright!"
Lu Juyan confidently promised Du Yanqing as he leaned his body backwards, leaving Du Yanqing with a space to calm his thoughts. At the same time, he was also secretly pondering on how he could start to chase after them. However, he discovered that he didn't know what to do.
Before the two could calm their minds, Du Yanqing's mobile phone suddenly rang. She pressed the answer button, and urgent words came out. Lu Juyan took this opportunity to drive her back to the company.
Lu Juyan, who originally wanted to go with Du Yanqing, was stopped in his tracks. The helpless Lu Juyan could only return to his own job later, but due to the urgent situation, the two of them did not say anything.
Approaching the elevator up to the first floor, Lu Juyan pulled Du Yanqing's arm. The moment Du Yanqing turned around, he unhesitatingly kissed the side of his lips and whispered into her ear, "Do your best."
At the same time, he let go of Du Yanqing's arm, and revealed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. He walked out as if nothing had happened, but his mood was exceptionally jubilant.
The slightly startled Du Yanqing watched Lu Juyan's departing figure until the elevator door closed. Lightly touching her lips, the corner of her lips suddenly curled up into a sweet smile.
At that moment, Du Yanqing's entire person seemed to have been possessed, as his mind kept resonating with the dragonfly kiss. Her cheeks was flushed red and her ears were constantly burning because of the hot air that Lu Juyan had sent over.
Returning back to his job, Lu Juyan saw the documents that the employee handed over, and realized that there was still a lot of time after he finished handling the documents. Du Yanqing's words resonated in his mind, making him anxious.
"What's the best way to chase a woman?"
After thinking for a long time yet not being able to think of a good idea, Lu Juyan's entire person was a little dispirited, but his grave and stern face did not reveal the slightest bit of emotion. It just so happened that there was a message from Xi Ao on WeChat. He did not read much and merely tried to guess the reliability of the message.
It was unknown if it was because Lu Juyan cared too much or because he was worried that it would be too difficult to trigger his heart, causing him to feel like he was an ant on a hot pan, and he was extremely restless. His previous decisiveness in the shopping mall had completely disappeared, leaving him unsure of what to do.
Xi Ao, who was about to return to his company after negotiating with his partner, happened to notice the cell phone on the side the moment he fastened his seat belt. He picked it up and realized that it was an ignorant question from Lu Juyan.
The corners of his mouth twitched, and he could not help but curse a few times in his heart: This person said that the mall is too proud, and too disappointed. He's talking about you!
His eyes strayed to the shops across the street. The gold jewelry was in the glass case, and the sunlight was blinding. He typed on the keyboard and muttered to himself.
"Buy jewelry for the Miss Du. If not, invite her to dinner. If one time didn't work, then two times; if two times didn't work, then three times … If you let her get fatter, then she's yours! "
Lu Juyan kept staring at the words the other party was typing in at the upper right corner of the screen. After waiting for a long time, he still could not find a single word, which made him faintly feel that Xi Ao was very unreliable. Just as he was about to put down his phone on the screen, a message came in.
He looked at the words on it and his face darkened. In his mind, he recalled the scene of Du Yanqing living in the company, it was clear that he could not reveal his identity as a rich man, or else everything would be like hitting a mahjong, seeking death.
The more Lu Juyan thought about it, the more he felt that Xi Ao's method was unreliable, he immediately turned the phone off, and secretly thought about other ways in his mind. In the end, due to the development of the situation, he decided to let nature take its course.
