Chapter 342 (1/2)
“What change of heart?” Another female cla.s.smate quickly stopped her as she laughed mysteriously. “Don’t talk nonsense if you don’t understand the situation.”
“Tell me what you know.” The two female cla.s.smates whispered among themselves.
“Let me tell you, the people who couldn’t sleep last night saw not only Director Zhou but also Ning Qing and Young Master Lu.”
“What? Tell me about it.”
“The man saw Young Master Lu carry Ning Qing out of the storage room and to the bungalow next door. I heard that it is Young Master Lu’s room.”
“My gosh…” the female cla.s.smate covered her face. “Don’t they need to sleep in the middle of the night? Moving from one room to another?”
“Ah, they are a couple, so of course, they did some exercise when they were not sleeping in the middle of the night. At that time, Ning Qing was in Young Master Lu’s arms and her little face was red. She looked as if she had been ruthlessly loved. And because Ning Qing’s room’s condition is very poor, It’s not convenient for them to take a bath. We can’t enter that bungalow either, so that was equivalent to the VIP room of the Zhou family’s Vineyard.”
The two girls chatted excitedly.
…
Everyone got on the luxury bus again. According to their schedule, they were going to the Zhou family’s vineyard today.
Ning Qing was still sitting in her original position by the window. Everyone was seated one after another, but the bus did not start. Someone asked, “Driver, why aren’t you driving yet?”
Then, a handsome figure got on the bus.
Everyone’s eyes were s.h.i.+ning. “Young Master Lu! Young Master Lu! Why are you here?”
Lu Shaoming got on the bus, and his deep black eyes swept to Ning Qing, who was sitting quietly behind. His voice was low and mellow as he answered, “I will take you to the vineyard today because Director Zhou is absent today.”
“Really? That’s great!” Everybody cheered.
Lu Shaoming walked towards the back with his long legs.
Ning Qing was wearing headphones and choosing a song. The bus seats were relatively high. She was a pet.i.te person and was hidden among the seats, so she could not see much around her. She did not look around either. She was concentrating on her work.
At that moment, the seat next to her sank as someone sat beside her.
Out of courtesy, she looked to the side and said, “h.e.l.lo…”
She was stunned when she saw the man beside her.
Lu Shaoming looked at the woman’s silly, stunned appearance, reached out, and touched her little head. He lifted his lip and laughed. “So surprised to see me?”
Ning Qing shrank back instinctively after being touched by him. She glared at him with big eyes. “What are you doing? Keep your hands to yourself!”
Lu Shaoming withdrew his hand and did not touch her, but he looked at her with a good mood and raised brows.
At this time, the morning suns.h.i.+ne sprinkled through the bright gla.s.s windows. The charismatic man bathed in the golden yellow light. He looked very young and handsome, attracting the eyes of everyone.
Ning Qing felt her face heating up as the many images of last night jumped through her mind, making her blush.
“You… Why are you here?” A man like him appearing in the bus formed a contradictory image.
“I’m here to go to the vineyard with you,” the man answered calmly.
Ning Qing digested the news. “But, why are you sitting next to me when there are so many seats on the bus?”
The man narrowed his eyes. “Who says I can’t sit next to you?”
Ning Qing: “You!”
It seemed impossible to expect him to sit elsewhere. Ning Qing rose suddenly and smiled politely. “Well then, Young Master Lu, please make way and let me sit elsewhere. I’m not used to sitting with others.”
The man looked at her delicate, tender face and nodded. “Alright, please.”
He spread out his left hand, a gentleman’s “please” gesture smoothly followed.
Ning Qing’s heart itched with hatred. Although the man had said “please”, but he had no intentions of making way for her.
He sat on his seat calm and composed. His legs were too long and slender, and they were crossed in front of him, taking up a lot of s.p.a.ce. How could she go out like that?
Ning Qing carried her small shoulder bag on her back, lifted her right leg carefully and stepped over his long leg.
Ning Qing was delighted to see that one of her feet was about to land.
But then, the driver stepped on the gas pedal, and because of inertia, she couldn’t stand still and fell straight to the man’s arms with an “ah.”
“Be careful!” Lu Shaoming reached out his right arm and clasped her pet.i.te waist, holding her firmly.
Ning Qing looked at the handsome face inches away from her. She fluttered her long eyelashes that were like b.u.t.terflies’ wings, but she still could not adapt to the softness on her lips.
She…had kissed the corners of his lips?
Then exclamations sounded in her ears. “Wow, Ning Qing, are you pouncing on Young Master Lu? Have you considered our feelings? It’s so embarra.s.sing.”
Ning Qing: “…”
Two small hands propped against his chest, and Ning Qing rolled back to her seat.
She stamped her foot. Wasn’t she going to leave him? Why had she pounced on him?
Oh my gosh. She was too embarra.s.sed to face anyone.
While she was shy and panicky, the man was in a good mood. “Alright, stop teasing, everyone. My wife’s already blus.h.i.+ng.”
Ning Qing: Who’s blus.h.i.+ng?
Even if her face was red, it was because of anger.
She was furious.
At this time, a warm spray of breath touched her ear, as low, rich, amused and enticing voice said, “Ning Qing, you are not used to sitting with me, but you are used to sitting on my thighs? Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
Ning Qing: What?
