The vibrating sound disappeared, and the bedroom returned to silence.
She opened the bedroom door, only to be thrown back onto the bed the next second. freёweɓnovel.com
Struggling was just futile.
So, gradually she learned to get used to it. As long as he didn’t do anything, she could sleep peacefully in his arms.
"What? Have you thought it through and decided to set me free?"
Lu Huai’an acted like he hadn’t heard her, his arms tightening, as if to press her into his body.
"Come to the company and be my secretary, just like before, but it won’t be as hard."
Lin Chu obediently lay in the man’s arms, even though the force of his grip on her waist made her a bit sore, she didn’t react much. freēwēbnovel.com
Like before?
Seems like he’s quite drunk.
With a light laugh, "Secretaries have access to many company secrets. Aren’t you afraid I’ll do something shady and ruin the Lu Family’s business?"
The clear scent lingered at the tip of her nose, Lu Huai’an instinctively sought to kiss her smooth neck, "Is that what you want?"
Lin Chu didn’t dodge, letting him knead and manipulate her as he wished.
No matter how gentle the kiss was, it couldn’t soften her heart.
She was only joking, never expected he would take it seriously and ask her earnestly.
"Don’t lump me in with you. I’m not one to plot against people in secret. The Lu Family’s glory and success have nothing to do with me. I don’t envy it or admire it; I just find it repulsive and disgusting."
A low laugh overflowed from Lu Huai’an’s throat.
This wasn’t the first time Lin Chu had said such things, but his reaction grew stranger with each instance, never getting angry; this time, there was even a hint of pleasure.
Lu Huai’an didn’t act excessively, his lips and teeth played at the most sensitive spot behind her ear, his hot breaths tickling her skin.
"Come with me to the company tomorrow. You don’t have to do anything; just let me see you."
Lin Chu neither agreed nor refused; she simply ignored and disregarded him utterly.
Her body was pressed to turn in another direction, facing the man side-on, inhaling nothing but his scent.
He wore nothing on his upper body, and Lin Chu’s hand happened to touch the scar on his chest. Because her sight was enveloped in darkness, her senses were keener than usual.
She could distinctly feel the slightly raised scar.
Three of them, not too many nor too few.
"Why didn’t you answer the call just now?"
Lu Huai’an retorted her, "Did you want me to answer?"
This was quite interesting.
Lin Chu chuckled, pushed the man’s hand away, and adjusted to a sleeping position.
"Calling you so late must mean trouble, after all, the Lu Family owes her mother such a big favor, yet you can completely ignore her. Truly heartless and ungrateful."
She deliberately stretched her tone, even clicked her tongue, as if lamenting Lu Huai’an’s cold-heartedness.
What shifted Lu Huai’an’s aura wasn’t her attitude, but the words she said.
In the dark, his eyes suddenly opened, emitting a chill, his arm on her waist tightened, leaving marks on her delicate skin.
His well-defined fingers pinched her jaw with considerable force, his hoarse voice filled with coldness, "How do you know this?"
Even amidst the darkness, Lin Chu could clearly feel the two sharp gazes on her cheek, as if they could peel open her skull.
Her exquisite features blossomed with a bright smile, her posture lazy and casual.
She lightly retorted, "Indeed, how do I know that?"
