Chapter 221: Chapter 173: Madam Chu, what do you mean by “serving”?_2

Translator: 549690339

In the eyes of the common folk, Lu Chen was the very essence of a hero.

So even if Lu Chen really married a widow, the people still had a great tolerance for him.

Lu Chen married the Sky Wolf King’s queen, and neither the citizens of North City nor those of Great Sum said a word about it; so what if he married a widow.

But no matter what, she was still the widow of a hero who fought against the barbarians. If Lu Chen forcibly married her, it would inevitably bring about some adverse influence.

Chu Yuqin’s face flushed, and she said in a panic, “Chen’er, stop it, I am your aunt, I won’t allow you to have such thoughts!”

Feeling the intensity of Lu Chen’s gaze, Chu Yuqin knew he genuinely coveted her body.

No matter what, she had to hold her ground; she couldn’t make a mistake, nor could she let Lu Chen cross the line.

Chu Yuqin continued, “Let go of your aunt quickly. If you don’t let go of me now, I will get angry.”

Chu Yuqin felt something was off about the atmosphere; although Lu Chen had previously harbored thoughts about her body, he had never spoken them out loud. Now that he did, it meant he was ready to take the next step.

What was the next step? Did she even need to think about it? He certainly intended to dominate her body.

If this went on, she might really lose her chastity to Lu Chen.

Unlike the last time, Lu Chen did not let go this time. His arms remained firmly wrapped around Chu Yuqin’s delicate form.

Chu Yuqin raised her jade hand to push against Lu Chen’s broad chest, trying to push him away, but no matter how hard she pushed, it was futile.

Lu Chen glanced at Chu Yuqin’s favorability level, which was still at 99 without the slightest decrease.

Lu Chen knew that there was a barrier in Chu Yuqin’s heart, and as long as she couldn’t get past it, she would be unable to accept becoming his woman.

Previously, he had tried to gradually get Chu Yuqin used to him by using the technique akin to slicing sausages, but Chu Yuqin would always suddenly come to her senses at critical moments.

Seeing Lu Chen hadn’t let go, Chu Yuqin began to twist her waist, trying to evade him and maintain distance.

But no matter how much she struggled, she couldn’t break free. Chu Yuqin then lifted her head, looking into Lu Chen’s eyes.

Her eyes were foggy, her face flushed with a rosy glow, making her even more enchanting.

Chu Yuqin said softly, “Chen’er, you already have so many women, please spare your aunt, okay?”

Lu Chen did not speak. There seemed to be flames burning fiercely in his eyes. The sight of this beautiful woman before him looking so pitiful sparked an agitation in Lu Chen’s heart that reached an uncontrollable edge.

Without thinking of the consequences, Lu Chen leaned down once more, aiming to kiss Chu Yuqin. When she saw this, Chu Yuqin quickly turned her head to dodge, but Lu Chen easily immobilized her and pressed his lips to hers.

While kissing, his restless hand wandered over Chu Yuqin’s voluptuous body.

Chu Yuqin suddenly felt her mind go blank; she wanted to struggle, but she had completely lost her strength and could only let Lu Chen have his way.

All that remained in Chu Yuqin’s heart was one thought: it’s over, she was completely about to be overpowered by this little scoundrel.

Uncertain of how long they kissed, Lu Chen suddenly noticed something. He reluctantly ended the kiss and at that moment, he noticed that tears were involuntarily streaming down Chu Yuqin’s face.

Seeing this, Lu Chen’s mind instantly sobered up, and the restlessness in his heart was immediately quelled.

Chu Yuqin began to sob.

Lu Chen was dumbfounded, completely unsure of how to comfort Chu Yuqin.

For a moment, Lu Chen was like a child who had done wrong. He quickly said, “Madam Chu, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have said such things to you. Please don’t cry, okay?”

Chu Yuqin, still sobbing, said, “Boo hoo hoo, you know to consider me as your aunt, but what kind of bullying is this?”

“I am the sister of your mother, who is sworn sisters with Jin Lan. How can you harbour those thoughts about me? What do you take me for, boo hoo hoo…”

Lu Chen, holding Chu Yuqin’s soft waist, didn’t know what to say.

After what seemed an eternity, Chu Yuqin finally calmed down. She wiped her tears and, seeing that Lu Chen was looking at her with an innocent face, she said, “Chen’er, let’s pretend nothing happened today. Please spare your aunt, okay? We really can’t do that kind of thing.”

Lu Chen sighed softly, then said, “Yuqin, do you truly not like me?”

Hearing this question, Chu Yuqin was taken aback.

Lu Chen did not call her Madam Chu this time, but called her by her name, instantly drawing their relationship much closer.

Seeing Lu Chen’s melancholic expression, Chu Yuqin fell silent.

She didn’t know how to answer Lu Chen’s question.

To say she didn’t like him would be to blatantly contradict her own feelings. Lately, she had been dreaming of Lu Chen every night and occasionally nurturing thoughts that she shouldn’t have.

Like the incident today in the study, she had imagined it more than once. But those were all fantasies. She had always remembered her identity strictly and restrained herself from such thoughts.

But if she admitted her liking, their relationship was right there, clear as day— they were never meant to engage in that sort of thing.
