1087 End of Lu and Lin (1/2)

This is our home.

Lu Jinwen stretched out both arms, hugging her from behind. He kissed her cheek, and with a deep magnetic voice, he asked, ”Do you like it? This place took two years to construct, every single detail was created according to your likes.”

Unbearably touched, Lin Xuanji's eyes watered, she hadn't expected such a huge surprise. It didn't even occur to her in her dreams.

She loved it.

It was gorgeous.

It truly was gorgeous.

Turning around, she hugged his neck. ”Mm, I love it so much.”

Lu Jinwen kissed her again. ”Xuanji, let's get married.”

He had been waiting for her for two years.

She had already turned 20.

Get married…

Lin Xuanji lowered her eyes. ”I don't want to get married yet.”

”Why? Tell me what's bothering you,” he cajoled her into telling him the reason.

But Lin Xuanji bit down onto her lower lip, staying silent and not saying a word.

Lu Jinwen's breathing got heavier. He pushed her against the wall, kissing her lips so passionately. His tongue made it through her teeth, exploring every corner of it so forcefully.

Lin Xuanji tugged on his shirt, she was almost breathless after being kissed by him. She could suddenly feel something on her stomach. She blushed, quickly pushing him away.

They had been together for two years, he would always get hard without fail, every time he kissed her.

Lu Jinwen buried his face in her neck, taking a sniff of her body scent and with a husky voice, he said, ”Xuanji, I really want you to become my Mrs Lu.”

He sounded so sincere as he said that. Upon hearing that, Lin Xuanji nuzzled her face against his shirt.

Huo Yanmei's voice was heard from downstairs. ”Xuanji, we're here!”

Huo Yanmei had brought a few of their girlfriends over.

”Mr Lu, I have to go downstairs.”

Lu Jinwen let go of Lin Xuanji. ”Sure, go ahead.”

…

At night, on the lawn.

Lin Xuanji lit a sparkler, throwing it away from herself. It resulted in crackling and the girls started laughing together.

Lin Xuanji sat on the lawn and Huo Yanmei was beside her. ”Xuanji, are you getting married to Mr Lu soon?”

”No…”

”Don't deny it. I already saw the ring that you designed, the One and Only ring.”

Lin Xuanji blushed, she hadn't expected Yanmei to have already seen the ring she designed.

”Xuanji, you can just get married to Mr Lu if you want to. Is there anything troubling you?”

She wasn't really troubled, Lu Jinwen was a capable man who could settle all problems, but…

That portrait.

The woman in the portrait, the one who wore a navy blue cheongsam, the one who looked exactly like her.

Who was she?

Two years had passed, but that portrait was just like a prick in her heart. Both consciously and unconsciously, she was constantly reminded of it.

She really wanted to marry him.

But she didn't dare to.

There were a few occasions when she just wanted to confront him about it, but once she was ready to say it, she just couldn't let those words come out from her mouth. She was afraid, afraid that once she asked him about it, they wouldn't have a future together anymore.

What was it that they said? Ignorance is bliss… Lin Xuanji lifted her head, looking at the sky full of dandelions. At least she felt blissful now without asking him about it.

She loved him so much. She couldn't even take the slightest risk that she would ruin everything. Even if he really had another woman in his heart, she would rather just live like this, deluding herself.

Love would make one become so pathetic.
