Billionaire's First Doting Marriage

Chapter 2543: Chapter 684: Sober

When in Los Angeles, Lu Yinxing had a rough start.

Because without a proper identity, and also because of her yellow skin.

In some places, she always faced discrimination and insults.

But during those days, Lu Yinxing never took those hurtful words to heart.

The humiliation endured over the past three years couldn’t compare to Xia Ye’s light remark.

Like a sharp knife, it easily carved a bloody mark over her heart.

If it were before, Lu Yinxing would have certainly lost control of her emotions by now.

Fortunately, in these three years away, the most she learned was endurance.

Lu Yinxing stubbornly held back her tears.

Imitating Xia Ye’s cold tone, she said, "I’m afraid you won’t get your wish."

Lu Yinxing even lifted her head to meet Xia Ye’s eyes.

Their eyes locked.

Both could feel a fire burning deep within the other’s eyes.

Mysteriously, Lu Yinxing felt that the flame in Xia Ye’s eyes seemed to burn more fiercely.

He slowly lowered his head, his breathing growing more rapid.

The scorching breath slowly moved closer.

Lu Yinxing felt bewildered, her mind starting to go blank.

She watched as Xia Ye came nearer and nearer.

A shred of reason told her she should quickly push him away.

Lu Yinxing sensed a dangerous aura.

Like a leopard, lying in wait for the right moment to pounce.

But for some reason, Lu Yinxing felt as if she’d been frozen in place.

Standing there, seemingly unable to move.

Her heart, once calmed down, began to race wildly.

As Xia Ye’s lips seemed to reach her cheek.

Lu Yinxing suddenly closed her eyes and held her breath.

But Xia Ye made no further move.

He merely leaned in close to her ear and softly said, "Don’t make a sound, there’s someone outside."

Lu Yinxing was startled, suddenly opened her eyes.

Indeed, soon footsteps were heard rustling outside.

It sounded like many people.

After they came in, Lu Yinxing overheard them discussing, "Where did they go, how did they suddenly vanish?"

"They must be hiding, just don’t know where they’ve hidden."

"No way they’re hiding here, this is the ladies’ restroom."

"Alright then, let’s search outside, it’s a once in a lifetime chance, even if we dig three feet into the ground, I’ll find them."

Gradually, the noises outside diminished, and the footsteps slowly faded away.

Lu Yinxing finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But Xia Ye was still very close to her.

That mesmerizing face, impossible not to let one’s thoughts wander.

Lu Yinxing felt a bit ashamed; when Xia Ye leaned in just now.

She actually thought he was going to kiss her...

Just wishful thinking.

But what made Lu Yinxing even more ashamed was that, at that moment, she didn’t have the slightest urge to push him away.

Lu Yinxing actually knew, deep down, she always yearned for Xia Ye.

Even abroad for three years, there was never a moment she stopped missing him.

It’s just, things are different now.

Xia Ye already has a girlfriend, and in this situation, if she didn’t refuse...

Then how would she be any different from a third party?

Lu Yinxing felt ashamed of herself.

In an instant, Lu Yinxing snapped back to reality.

Quickly pushed Xia Ye away, and said, "They’re gone, shouldn’t we leave now?"
