C106 (2/2)

This scene was just like half a year ago, when Du Liqing was staying at Lu Juanyan's house. In a trance, he realized that so much time had passed. He lowered his head, removed the memories from his mind, took out the remaining ingredients from the fridge and started cooking seriously.

”I'll go wash the dishes.” After the two of them finished this simple dish, Du Liqing took the initiative to stack the plates together and brought them into the sink to be washed.

After she finished washing the dishes, she glanced at Lu Juyan who was sitting on the sofa and went straight back to her room without saying anything. The tranquil environment made her begin to prepare her plans for the next step.

Lu Juyan felt rather bored as he sat on the sofa. He glanced at the closed doors of Du Liqing's room and felt an inexplicable urge to see what she was doing. Before he could clear his mind, he moved ahead of the computer and opened the door without knocking. Because it was an unconscious action, Lu forgot about the courteous act of knocking on the door.

Upon hearing the door open, Du Ruqing immediately grabbed a book to block the proposal on the table. When she turned around, she saw Lu Juyan's appearance. Without saying anything further, he stood up, blocking the object on the desk behind her, not willing to let her see it. He felt angry and said, ”Why didn't you knock on the door when you came in?”

”I forgot.” Du Ruqing subconsciously blocked her, causing Lu Juyan to doubt something even more. His gaze subconsciously drifted behind her as he approached her step by step, searching for something behind her first.

Not a single word of apology ignited the anger in Du Liqing's heart. He frowned in dissatisfaction and subconsciously walked forward to push Lu Juyan out of the room when he saw his approaching body.

Lu Juyan wasn't willing to leave at all as he cast a glance behind Du Liqing from the corner of his eyes. When she reached out her hand, she turned and just missed her push, and she was even closer to the desk.

”Lu Juyan, get out!” Du Liqing, who had made up his mind, turned around and saw that Lu Juyan was about to walk towards the desk. She took small steps forward and grabbed Lu Juyan's arm, forcing him out.

Lu Juyan didn't like this move at all. He was unwilling to leave unyieldingly as he grabbed a corner of the desk with his hand and attempted to move towards it slowly.

Du Liqing's brow furrowed in dissatisfaction as he grabbed Lu Juyan's hand to prevent him from touching the desk, but his elbow had unwittingly bumped into the pressed proposal. The paper fell to the ground right between the two of them.

”I have a better idea.” Du Liqing's heart skipped a beat as he crouched down and picked up the paper. He glared furiously at Lu Juyan and heard his calm words before he could speak.

In that moment of absent-mindedness, Du Ruqing had thought that it was an illusion, but when she saw Lu Juyan's resolute expression, her heart began to rise to her throat. He was thinking about his life history, as well as the pros and cons.

It did not seem particularly bad to add an ally.

She mused to herself as she looked at Lu Juyan again, but there wasn't the slightest bit of anger in her gaze. Instead, the light in her eyes became clear.
