Chapter 493 The Problematic Baby VS The Arrogant Guy Who Loves to Ask Questions 45

Jiang Zhiyi hadn't expected Lu Jingxun to be so strong.

After he countered her, she was like a captured bird, completely losing the ability to resist.

Although she was the one who took the initiative first, she felt inexplicably scared.

I should never have provoked him.

Jiang Zhiyi quickly backed down, and after realizing something was wrong, she immediately wanted to change her mind, but Lu Jingxun wouldn't give her that chance.

He had been refusing her all along, and he had told her many times before to be wary of others, even him. But she didn't take his words to heart at all, and never learned her lesson. Now she had even given up the initiative herself.

Then she'll have to bear the consequences of her disobedience.

"Hmm..."

Jiang Zhiyi let out a soft cry that she couldn't help.

Lu Jingxun's previous evasiveness and restraint in the face of her intimate gestures had all vanished at this moment.

The pent-up emotions, like a burst dam, completely overwhelmed his reason.

...

When everything calmed down, Jiang Zhiyi felt like a rag doll that had been severely beaten.

She had no strength left in her body, and even her cries were weak. Tears streamed down her delicate little face, and her eyes were red.

Lu Jingxun lay on his side behind her, his arm around her, holding her in his arms.

His lips gently touched Jiang Zhiyi's neck, the delicate touch making him reluctant to leave. He then moved up her neck and kissed her hair.

His breath was still hot, tinged with longing, lingering around her.

"Don't cry." Lu Jingxun wiped away her tears.

Jiang Zhiyi was seething with anger, but ultimately she had brought this upon herself. She was too embarrassed to vent her anger, which only made her angrier.

Tears became increasingly uncontrollable, mostly forced out by this pent-up frustration.

Looking at her like this, Lu Jingxun couldn't help but chuckle softly, his laughter tinged with affection. He coaxed her, "I'll buy you a gift tomorrow. You can have whatever you want, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhiyi merely hummed a few times, then turned her head away in a huff, keeping her mouth tightly shut and refusing to speak.

She can have anything she wants, but she also wants a big house by the sea and a car, a cool convertible luxury car... so she can take her younger siblings for a drive.

"I don't want your money or gifts, I like you." Jiang Zhiyi felt it was necessary for her to defend herself now.

Although these weren't her true feelings, she knew what to say in front of men.

Lu Jingxun, like any other man, wasn't particularly bright, or rather, he didn't care about such things and wouldn't delve into them. But no one disliked hearing these kinds of things.

Most of the time, whatever she says is the truth, and she just keeps emphasizing it in his ear.

"I know," Lu Jingxun replied, adding in a rare, affectionate tone, "I like buying things for you."

"Hmph." Jiang Zhiyi was finally satisfied.

That's more like it, then she won't hold back.

Anyway, he has so much money he can't spend it all, so it's no big deal for him to spend a little on her.

"Go to sleep." Lu Jingxun closed his eyes, preparing to rest, but his mind was still unusually clear, and he couldn't help but recall.

Jiang Zhiyi isn't fat; sometimes she even looks a bit thin. But she's very comfortable to hug; her body is all soft and chubby.

In the past, when she clung to me and acted coquettishly, she was always so soft and gentle.

But he hadn't expected her to be so soft and so small...

For a few moments just now, Lu Jingxun even felt that she was about to kill him.

Jiang Zhiyi didn't want to sleep yet, even though her eyes were already too sleepy to stay open. She hummed a few more times and said, "Did you lie to me about anything?"

She couldn't think of any other topics to talk about, so she asked this question casually.

Upon hearing this question, Lu Jingxun stiffened slightly and fell silent.

After a moment, he changed the subject, saying, "You said last time you wanted to go to school, have you decided where you want to go?"

Jiang Zhiyi had mentioned to him a few times before that she wanted to go to university, any school would do, as long as she could get a diploma.

Lu Jingxun agreed at the time, but told her to choose the school herself.

Jiang Zhiyi wasn't in a hurry about this, and didn't bring it up again for the time being.

Jiang Zhiyi replied groggily, "I haven't decided yet, and I don't know where to go..."

As she spoke, she yawned, already starting to feel sleepy.

Lu Jingxun originally wanted to suggest that she go to Beijing with him and study there.

But the words were on the tip of his tongue, and he swallowed them back.

It's best not to tell her before things are completely settled, to avoid any unforeseen circumstances.

So he simply said, "Then think about it slowly, and tell me when you've thought it through, and I'll try to arrange something for you."

Jiang Zhiyi said "Oh," her voice filled with drowsiness.

Silence fell over the room for a moment.

Lu Jingxun was still thinking about the question she had asked at the very beginning.

My thoughts were like a tangled mess, impossible to untangle.

If it were before... in the past, he wouldn't have cared at all, and even if she knew, it wouldn't have mattered, since he wouldn't be the one who would be upset.

But now, Lu Jingxun doesn't know what to do either.

If she finds out... Lu Jingxun knows without a doubt that she will cry.

She might secretly hide and cry under the covers. When she gets angry, she won't talk to him anymore, and might not even want to look at him again.

After all, it would be hard for anyone to accept this situation.

Lu Jingxun immediately felt a pang of regret, regretting that he had been so foolish to do such a mess. Now it was too late to make amends.

It was like a gleaming knife hanging over my head, ready to fall at any moment, but there was absolutely nothing I could do. Every day after that, I was filled with worry, fearing the day I would suffer the consequences.

Lu Jingxun thought for a long time.

This was the first time he had ever been so hesitant.

But rather than continuing to hide it, perhaps the only right choice is to confess as soon as possible.

The truth will eventually come out.

The longer we delay, the greater the cost will inevitably be.

"There's something I need to tell you..."

Lu Jingxun paused for a moment, but decided to speak anyway, trying his best to make his voice sound sincere.

"Actually, I'm not Lu Yanlin. My real name is Lu Jingxun. I lied to you before... I'm sorry."
