Chapter 92 How Deep Is His Love?

In a flash, they were the only two people left in the garden.

The two looked at each other, sparks of anger flew. Yuan Wanru wanted to lose her temper, but when she met his scorching gaze, she didn't know why she didn't dare to look at him and turned to leave.

Lu Jiangnian grabbed her hand and said, "Did you miss me today, ma'am?"

Yuan Wanru shook her hands hard, but failed to get rid of them.

"Stop pulling and let me go."

His voice was a little hoarse, and his eyes were fixed on her profile: "When I was on duty, I was distracted. Fortunately, nothing happened today, so I came back first."

"You know the taste of the marrow. Do you understand the meaning of this phrase?"

In broad daylight, in the garden, he flirted with people.

She could feel that his gaze was like fire, making her face hot.

"Yesterday was an accident. Anyway, you are not allowed to do anything without my permission."

Having tasted the sweetness, would he want more?

Whenever she saw him now, her heart was in turmoil.

Lu Jiangnian tightened his grip on her small hand and applied a little force: "My dear, we are already husband and wife. You can't escape from me forever."

"I can give you some time to think it over, but you have to tell me how long it will take. I can't indulge you indefinitely."

"If you keep pushing me away and drawing a line between us, don't blame me if I can't stand it anymore and impulsively cross the line."

Lu Jiangnian wasn't threatening her, he was really worried that he couldn't bear it for much longer.

She has always been heartless. Even though the two of them kissed for so long last night, she was still able to sleep soundly.

What about him?

The tent was filled with her fragrance, which made him excited for most of the night. Drinking a whole pot of cold tea was of no use. He stood by the window and felt the cold wind for an hour before he was able to suppress his surging thoughts.

If he continues like this every day, he will probably suffocate to death.

He didn't want to die young, but he also didn't want her to become a widow for no reason.

When Yuan Wanru heard this, she became unhappy: "Why, do you still want to force yourself on me?"

"You dare?"

If he dared to do it, she would poison him and make him impotent for life.

Lu Jiangnian met her dark eyes, uttered a curse, leaned closer, and put his arm around her waist: "What should I do then?"

"It's clearly autumn, but I always feel like it's spring, full of life."

"He was always very well behaved before, and there was no noise."

"But now I see you are always dishonest, and I am annoyed."

"If my lady doesn't have mercy on me, I will be tortured to death."

At first, Yuan Wanru didn't understand what he meant, but as the two of them got closer, she...

Die!

"Let me go..."

The heat was so intense that she felt like her whole body was on fire.

He did not let her go, but hugged her, resting his head on her shoulder, and said plaintively in her ear: "If I really...break down, can you really bear to let me go?"

If he was strong, she could still resist.

But seeing this spoiled little puppy look, she almost surrendered.

It's shameful to act cute.

She tried to stay awake, and after a moment's hesitation, she said, "If you can't hold it in, you can find someone else..."

"ah!"

Before he could finish his words, his neck was bitten. He suppressed his anger and said in a suppressed voice: "If I hear this again, I will force you to the bridal chamber right now."

"What do you take me for?"

"For all these years, I have only been like this when I am with you. My heart is not moved and my emotions are not touched. Don't you really understand?"

Yuan Wanru was silent. Indeed, if he was such a dissolute person, she wouldn't have to worry about it now.

He would have kicked the man down long ago.

"You mean, you like me?"

She pushed away the man who was leaning on her and stared at him with clear eyes, trying to see clearly what he was thinking.

When Lu Jiangnian was looked at like this, his ears turned red.

It's always embarrassing to say what you like.

He touched his nose and coughed lightly: "Ahem, it should be."

This rare embarrassment made Yuan Wanru not know what to say.

He must have some affection for her, otherwise he wouldn't be acting like this.

But how deep is the love?

Maybe he doesn't even know it himself.

She let out a long sigh. At this moment, she was particularly rational.

"We have been together for such a short time that I don't know how to define our relationship."

"Can you give me some time? I'll tell you the answer when I think it through."

Lu Jiangnian stared at her for a long time, feeling suffocated.

However, he had no choice but to compromise.

"How long will it take?"

Yuan Wanru was stunned for a moment and thought about the plot in the book. Probably before the New Year, the adulterer in the book would come to the capital, and the adultery would be caught around the New Year.

According to the plot in the book, she will leave the Mansion of the Loyal and Brave Marquis at that time.

Now that the plot has changed, she will not follow it, but she wants to use this time point as an opportunity.

If during this period of time, he could make her like him and love him deeply, and make her firm in her determination to stand with him and face many unknown risks, she would not be afraid to try.

After all, in two lifetimes, he was the only man who made her want to fall in love.

If the plot of the book wasn't so confusing, and if he wasn't the male protagonist, perhaps she wouldn't be so resistant.

"I will tell you the answer on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month next year."

Lu Jiangnian's face darkened. It wasn't even August 15 yet, which meant he had to wait another five months? !

"No, it's been too long."

Yuan Wanru sneered: "Love can't wait. If you can't even wait for this little time, you might as well find someone else as soon as possible."

Do you think she must be with him?

Now he cherishes her.

He was really pissed off by her.

Why is he so worthless in her eyes that she would just push him to someone else so easily?

If I'm not mistaken, he is clearly a good man praised by everyone, and there are countless women who want to throw themselves into his arms.

Not to mention the distant past, a few days ago when he passed by Yong'an River, a girl fell into the water and called for help. He asked Xuanqing to use a bamboo pole to pick the girl out, but the girl swam to the shore by herself.

Today, on his way home from court, someone threw a purse at him, which he smashed to pieces with his sword.

It can be seen that he is still very popular.

"I'll wait for you during the Lantern Festival next year, but during this time, you can't refuse me to kiss you."

She sneered: "You wish, if you can't bear this, why don't you go..."

The veins on Lu Jiangnian's forehead popped out. He reached out and covered her mouth, not wanting to hear those irritating words.

Thinking of him lying on her shoulder and her softened waist, his eyes gleamed and he understood.

To deal with her, you have to be gentle.

He understood best the principle of waiting for the right opportunity and using all means possible in war.

I almost missed a big opportunity and all those military books I read were in vain.

"My wife, you are so cruel. Not only did you not give me meat for such a long time, but you didn't even let me have a taste of soup?"

"Remember, husband, you can't kiss below the neck. I was very obedient last night~"

The man who was so imposing just now turned into a puppy in an instant, blinking his eyes, wagging his tail and begging for mercy, which made people feel soft-hearted.

She struggled: "Just bear with it."
