Luo Ying buried her head in Lu Zhao’s arms. She had been terrified beyond measure when the bullet was fired at her.
She was afraid of death, afraid of Lu Zhao’s death in shielding her.
“Everything is fine now.” Lu Zhao stroked her hair, his tone slowly becoming gentle.
“I almost thought I wouldn’t be able to see you again.” Luo Ying said. She did not expect Lu Zhao to risk his life to save her.
Lu Zhao hugged Luo Ying tighter. “I was too impulsive.”
The old man had pressed the right buttons to make him take the more irrational of choices. He had abandoned Luo Ying to save her.
Lu Zhao was guilty. “I should have told you, but I really wanted to see my mother so much that I didn’t expect it to be a trap.”
Luo Ying raised her head and looked at Lu Zhao. “It’s okay. I also hope that you can find your mother as soon as possible.”
In the original novel, Lu Zhao had a loving, doting mother. She was tormented by the whims of the powerful and rich.
Luo Ying’s eyes darkened. If Lu Zhao divorced her, would he be able to look for his mother? “If the two of us fake a divorce, would it get him off our backs…”
Lu Zhao shook his head and chuckled. “How is that possible? The old man was already going to give Lin Jin to me tonight. Do you think our fake divorce can really fool him?”
Luo Ying sighed.
Jin Shi and her words flooded into his mind.
Was she not destined to be with him? Whenever they were together, bad things happened.
“Lu Zhao, do you think there’s a possibility that even the heavens don’t want the two of us to be together?” Luo Ying whispered.
“Why are you so superstitious now?” Lu Zhao asked Luo Ying.
Luo Ying shook her head. This world was not real.
If the novel was going to give them both a tragic end, was this all worth it?
“If fate decides that the two of us can’t be together, no matter how hard we try, we won’t be able to be together.” Luo Ying’s voice was getting softer and softer. It almost broke her heart to say these words.
Lu Zhao’s eyes were fixed on her. “Do you mean to break up with me now?” His hand on Luo Ying’s body tightened, and his eyes darkened.
Luo Ying had never seen Lu Zhao like this. His eyes seemed to be a little wet. He was like a puppy that was about to be abandoned.
Luo Ying was speechless.
Jin Shi was right. She was already deeply in love with Lu Zhao and could not leave him at all.
However, if leaving him causes Lu Zhao to suffer even more pain, she would rather suffer with him.
While she was distracted, Lu Zhao had already scooped her up onto the bed and hugged her tightly in his arms.
He buried his head in Luo Ying’s neck and gently bit the soft flesh on her neck.
Luo Ying was shocked and reached out to push Lu Zhao. “Are you a dog?” Lu Zhao smiled and nodded.
Luo Ying was embarrassed by his shameless attitude. She quickly forgot about her grief.
Lu Zhao gently kissed Luo Ying’s neck. “But this dog’s owner is about to ditch him, so he’s going crazv.”
Luo Ying blushed at Lu Zhao’s words.
“What…” She looked at Lu Zhao and wanted to push him away.
Lu Zhao grabbed her hand and raised his head to kiss her lips.
It was a slow and gentle kiss. Luo Ying felt that her body going limp. She reached out to push him away again, but Lu Zhao grabbed her hand. Their fingers were interlocked.
The kiss lasted for a long time.
Luo Ying could no longer sit upright. She hugged Lu Zhao’s waist and lay in his arms, panting lightly.
Lu Zhao stroked Luo Ying’s back. “No matter who set the rules and forbade us from being together, I will find him and kill him.”
Lu Zhao’s eyes darkened.
He would not let Luo Ying leave him. Of course, no one could take Luo Ying away from him.
After all, in order to get Luo Ying back to his side, he had already put in a lot of effort.
“Alright.” Luo Ying nodded.
At that moment, she wanted to believe that this man had the ability to break the powers that be..
