Chapter 223: Chapter 222 Not
"I love you too,"
Lin Qianru gave Lu Tianxing a deep look, nodding resolutely and asked softly, "Tianxing, if it were between me and your wife, who would you choose?"
"Uh!"
Lu Tianxing paused slightly. How could he know who to choose between Bai Zhiqing and Lin Qianru? Could he not choose both?
Seeing Lu Tianxing’s reaction, Lin Qianru’s gaze gradually grew desolate. Eventually, in Lu Tianxing’s heart, she was merely a mistress, never matching up to his legitimate wife.
Noticing Lin Qianru’s sorrowful eyes, Lu Tianxing took a deep breath, tightened his hold on her arms, and said solemnly, "No matter whom I choose, you will always be Lu Tianxing’s woman in this lifetime. No one can take you away from me. You belong only to me."
Having said that, without waiting for Lin Qianru to speak, Lu Tianxing forcefully kissed her on the lips, blocking all her words in her throat.
"Mmm..."
Lin Qianru’s beautiful eyes widened instantly, whimpering as she did not expect Lu Tianxing to be so domineering, not giving her a chance to speak and using his actions to assert everything.
A few minutes later, Lu Tianxing finally let go of Lin Qianru, looking at her slightly swollen lips without any hesitation, swiftly carried her in a bridal style and strode towards the upstairs bedroom.
...
After an indeterminate amount of time, as the clouds cleared and the fog dissipated, the room finally returned to peace. Lin Qianru’s cheeks were tinged with red, her entire presence emitting an astonishing allure that turned heads.
Lin Qianru leaned against Lu Tianxing’s chest, listening to his strong and powerful heartbeat, without even the thought of moving.
Lu Tianxing’s face bore a contented smile as he leaned against the headboard, a cigarette dangling from his lips, his eyes squinting as he blew smoke rings.
Taking a drag from his cigarette, Lu Tianxing looked at Lin Qianru with a complicated expression, "Qianru, do you truly have no regrets? You know, I am already married, perhaps, I can’t give you a legitimate wedding."
Believe it or not, Lu Tianxing decided he needed to repeat himself even if Lin Qianru might later discover his relationship with Bai Zhiqing. He didn’t want to hurt this woman. Even if he possessed the Disguise Technique and could change his appearance to marry Lin Qianru, that face would not be his own, slightly disappointing.
Lin Qianru, listening to Lu Tianxing, shivered slightly but quickly regained her composure. After a moment of silence, she finally lifted her head to steadfastly look at him, and after a long time, she asked, "Do you think I am a shameless woman?"
Lu Tianxing gazed into Lin Qianru’s eyes and responded seriously, "No."
Was Lin Qianru a shameless woman? Clearly not. Could a shameless woman still be a virgin before 25?
Would a shameless woman’s home contain no men’s items?
These were all evidence. No matter how much one tries to hide, some things can’t be faked.
Besides, his visit to Lin Qianru’s home was completely random. Lin Qianru couldn’t have anticipated it and hidden everything without leaving a trace.
"Could it be that you don’t think I’m shameless when I slept with you at our first meeting, even repeatedly inviting you to visit my home?" Lin Qianru asked with self-mocking laughter.
Lu Tianxing shook his head, saying, "I don’t think so; you are a good woman."
"Then, I don’t mind you having other women. I just hope that one day, you will remember there was a woman who once stood by your side."
Lin Qianru lay on Lu Tianxing’s chest, her fingers gently tracing his chest. When her fingertip touched the spot over his heart, Lin Qianru’s heart suddenly surged, her face showing a shocked expression, almost in disbelief.
There was a round scar, directly over his heart, looking quite alarming.
Lu Tianxing, seeing the wound on his chest, his eyes reflected a hint of reminiscence. The scar was from a gunshot wound, the only time he was close to death, shot by an anti-materiel sniper rifle. If it had not been for his breakthrough in understanding True Qi at the crucial moment under the stimulus of death, instantly raising a True Qi Protection Shield, he might have been dead by now.
This scar, he had always kept on his chest, never wanting it to disappear – Lu Tianxing wanted to remind himself that he was not invincible. There were many things capable of killing him; achieving invincibility required constant effort and advancement, or else he was destined to meet his end.
"Does it hurt?"
Lin Qianru’s fingers lightly touched the scar, her face showing a tinge of heartache. Although she was no doctor, she clearly understood that this wound wasn’t from a blade or a cigarette, but rather, it resembled gunshot wounds depicted in TV dramas.
His heart had been pierced by a bullet, yet this man had strenuously survived. Lin Qianru had never imagined how much willpower that required.
"It doesn’t hurt. I got used to it."
Lu Tianxing looked at Lin Qianru and shook his head with a smile, not wanting her to worry about him.
PS: Today I packed up packages and cleaned the room. I’m leaving tomorrow morning. It’s a day and a night bus ride, and I’ll arrive the day after tomorrow afternoon. I need to transfer the next day, and it will take at least three days. Consequently, the Chapters for the next few days will all be scheduled updates. Once I’m settled, I will make up for the missing Chapters.
