Chapter 94 I Won’t Run Away This Time

The last two words almost came out of Qin Zhang's throat.

Lu Mingze clearly felt that his back seemed to be bent.

"I'll go cook. You take a rest. The meal will be ready soon." Qin Zhang didn't want to listen to Lu Mingze's words about torturing him to death, so he turned and went into the kitchen.

He was worried that he would not be able to control himself and would lock Lu Mingze up.

Every word Lu Mingze said was like a knife stabbing him in the heart.

Every word cut a hole in his heart.

It was bloody and painful, making him feel like dying.

"Qin Zhang!" Lu Mingze followed.

Qin Zhang's eyes were red: "Stop talking!"

The sound was a muffled roar.

Lu Mingze walked up to him and put his hand on his sleeve: "Your sleeve is stained with dirty water."

Lu Mingze gently rolled up his sleeves, revealing his muscular forearms.

He suddenly stretched out his arms and Lu Mingze was easily held in his arms.

Afraid of touching Lu Mingze's wound, he just forcefully let Lu Mingze lean on his arms.

Surrounded by familiar smells, Lu Mingze closed his eyes.

After just a moment, Qin Zhang let the man go: "Cooking produces a lot of fumes, which is bad for your health. Go out, I'll call you when I'm done."

After saying that, she stopped looking at him and went about her own business.

But Lu Mingze could see that he looked tense and his hands were shaking as he washed the vegetables.

"Let me help you!" Lu Mingze took two eggs.

I was worried that something might go wrong if he cooked in this state.

Qin Zhang forced an ugly smile and took back the eggs: "I'll cook it for you."

Lu Mingze had no choice but to be pushed out of the kitchen.

Outside, you can see Qin Zhang washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, and beating eggs skillfully in an orderly manner.

There is a beauty in cooking.

The apron tied around his waist made his broad shoulders and narrow waist appear even more narrow.

Lu Mingze was a little fascinated.

In the past, he liked to hug Qin Zhang from behind when he was cooking.

He is also a little restless now.

He didn't stay at the kitchen door for long, fearing that he might lose control.

He turned around and sat back on the bed in a daze.

Qin Zhang was very quick and prepared three dishes and a soup in just one hour.

The portion is huge, enough for two people.

The dishes were served on the table, and Qin Zhang fetched some water and placed it in front of Lu Mingze.

Then took his hand.

Lu Mingze was startled: "What are you doing?"

"Wash your hands and get ready to eat." Qin Zhang said in a gentle voice.

"I can do it myself!" Lu Mingze was embarrassed.

He was just busy watching Qin Zhang going in and out, his mind was blank, and he didn't react until Qin Zhang pulled his hand.

Qin Zhang did not insist. He watched him wash his hands, brought him a towel to wipe his hands, poured out the water, put the towel back in place, and then sat down at the table with him to eat.

Lu Mingze smiled: "When I was in the hospital, there was a chef in the hospital cafeteria whose cooking skills were very similar to yours."

Hearing this, Qin Zhang's hand holding the soup trembled suddenly: "Yes, is that so?"

"Yes!" Lu Mingze nodded: "The food is delicious and the taste is perfect. It suits my taste perfectly."

"Well, that's good." Qin Zhang felt guilty and didn't dare to look at him.

Lu Mingze hummed and said, "It's a pity, he is mute, his eyesight is not good, and he is ugly."

"Except for the fact that I'm about the same height as you, I'm far inferior to you in other aspects."

If this cook really was someone else, Qin Zhang would definitely be very proud.

But this cook was clearly himself. For a moment, Qin Zhang didn't know how to react.

He could only put the soup in front of Lu Mingze and said, "Let's eat."

Lu Mingze picked it up and took a sip. It was very delicious.

The two of them ate quietly, and Qin Zhang would pick up some food for him from time to time.

It was as if the conversation between the two just now did not exist, and it was as if Lu Mingze's heartbreaking words had never been said before.

When they were almost done eating, Lu Mingze asked, "Are you going back to the hotel later?"

Qin Zhang glanced at his bed: "I want to sleep here, will you let me stay?"

Lu Mingze shook his head: "You wish."

"Then come back to the hotel with me." Qin Zhang suggested: "I'll get you a new room."

“Many places in the hotel are more convenient than your place.”

"I'll take you to work tomorrow morning."

Lu Mingze disagreed: "No!"

"Then don't go." Qin Zhang looked at him: "You won't run away this time, right?"

Lu Mingze frowned: "I'm injured like this, but I still need to be able to run."

"Then I'll come to see you tomorrow. Will you still see me?" Qin Zhang asked again.

Lu Mingze nodded: "As long as it's about work, you can always contact me."

"You know very well that I'm not looking for you just for work." Qin Zhang held back and didn't pull his hand on the table.

"Okay!" Lu Mingze took a step back: "But let me make it clear that no matter what, we will never go back to the way it was before."

"No matter what you do, I won't respond to you."

He cruelly tore Qin Zhang's luck into pieces.

Qin Zhang was silent for a moment and lowered his head to eat.

After a while, he said, "Yeah."

Qin Zhang brainwashed himself silently. Now Lu Mingze didn't trust him to solve all the problems.

This is normal.

It's just going back to the starting point. Could it be that I'm even more unsure than when I hooked up with him in the first place?

At least she could feel that he was not completely uninterested in her.

The thing Qin Zhang is least afraid of is persistence.

After the two finished their meal, Qin Zhang still didn't let Lu Mingze move. He washed the dishes himself and boiled two pots of water for Lu Mingze.

After finishing everything, there is no reason to stay.

Qin Zhang opened the door and prepared to leave when he heard Lu Mingze ask, "Why are you coming back?"

The factory is quite far from the hotel. Qin Zhang won’t just walk back like this, right?

In fact, Lu Mingze didn't even need to ask this question.

Since Qin Zhang can come, there is a way for him to go back.

Lin Zhiyuan arranged for someone to wait at the factory gate.

If Qin Zhang arrived at the factory gate, a car would naturally be arranged to take him back to the hotel.

Lin Zhiyuan can also discuss tomorrow's itinerary with Qin Zhang in the car.

Qin Zhang smiled and said, "Are you worried about me?"

Lu Mingze said stubbornly: "No."

He walked up to Lu Mingze and touched his head: "Don't worry, Vice President Lin has made arrangements."

Lu Mingze nodded: "Goodbye!"

Qin Zhang's heart felt cold.

He walked into the night and soon blended into it.

Lu Mingze didn't sleep well that night. Qin Zhang's red eyes were always in his dreams.

I dreamed that Qin Zhang asked me why I stabbed him in the heart.

When I woke up, my face was itchy and when I touched it, it was covered with tears.

I forced myself to fall asleep again, but in my dream I saw Qin's parents' hysteria again.

"You seduced my son, you harmed him, you have no shame!"

He dreamed that Qin's father was whipping him with a whip, but Qin Zhang held him tightly in his arms.

The whip hit Qin Zhang, and blood was flowing, which was shocking.

Lu Mingze dreamed that Qin Zhang grabbed his hand and asked him: "I am willing to do anything for you. Do you believe me? You are the only one in my heart."

Lu Mingze tossed and turned in several nightmares, and when he woke up it was already dawn.

He struggled to get up, took his toiletries and prepared to go outside to wash up. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Qin Zhang standing at the door.
