Chapter 287

As if Lu Xun just wanted to hear this promise, his frown relaxed a little. Seeing the unconcealed heartache in the girl's eyes, he finally spoke slowly: "They asked me to marry someone else, but I didn't agree, so now..."

"They kicked me out of the Sheng family." Lu Xun said

The man's tone was calm, with almost no ups and downs, as if he was talking about someone else's affairs, but Jiang Qiao could hear the undisguised sadness in his calm tone.

For a moment, the air was silent, and one could hear a pin drop.

The young master of the Sheng family is engaged to the daughter of the Peng family. Lu Xun refuses the marriage proposal and is kicked out of the Sheng family. Lu Xun... is looking for a job.

Invisible threads entangled his internal organs, making it difficult to breathe. He didn't know how much time had passed. Jiang Qiao opened his mouth, but his throat felt dry and he couldn't speak.

After a while, she finally regained the ability to speak and murmured, "………………Why don't you want to get married?"

In fact, Jiang Qiao knew that she was asking the question knowing the answer, but she asked it anyway. It might be because she didn't want to believe in Lu Xun's sincere and passionate love for her from the bottom of her heart, or maybe it was because she felt guilty and felt that she was not worthy of Lu Xun giving up so much.

And Lu Xun never made things difficult for her, and he expressed his feelings openly, in a clumsy but sincere way.

Lu Xun stretched out his hand and gently pressed the corners of the girl's eyes with his fingertips. He could feel moisture, and small red marks were left where his fingertips had pressed, like small rose petals...

It's so smooth and moist that even if you apply a little more force, you'll leave an indelible mark...

Where the girl couldn't see, a hint of darkness flashed in his eyes, but it was not visible on his face. He comforted her in a soft voice: "Jiang Qiao, don't be sad for me..."

"This is my choice. No matter what the outcome is, I am ready to take the consequences."

The man's voice was very low and soft, and it brushed her cheek when he spoke, but Jiang Qiao didn't realize it. Her mind was full of what to do with Lu Xun in the future.

Jiang Qiao entered the entertainment industry right after graduating from university. Although she did not have much work experience, she knew how harsh society was. Even top students from 211 and 985 universities could not find jobs, not to mention Lu Xun, who had not even received his university diploma.

Lu Xun's identity is also a big problem. If the Sheng family deliberately makes things difficult for Lu Xun to return, there is really nothing we can do.

Logically, she should persuade Lu Xun to go back, but if Lu Xun really returned to the Sheng family, it would be equivalent to accepting an arranged marriage and getting engaged and married to another woman...

It was as if there were two villains fighting in Jiang Qiao's mind. The villain in black angrily accused her of being too selfish, while the villain in white said that this was Lu Xun's choice and she should respect it.

But when Jiang Qiao thought about how Lu would run into trouble in finding a job, or that he might be bullied by his boss and become less "powerful", he felt very uncomfortable.

"Lu Xun, we are not in a romantic relationship. You...you still have a chance to choose..." Jiang Qiao said, enduring the pain in her heart.

She thought that it was understandable that Lu Xun was blinded by love, after all, Lu Xun was still young, but she was already 25, and she couldn't be so selfish.

Jiang Qiao tried to find the best solution from his chaotic thoughts, but he heard Lu Xun say:

"No, all my bank cards have been frozen, and this apartment will be taken back."

“…………………………”

how so……………

Jiang Qiao was stunned, his thoughts were in a mess, he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

Lu Xun didn’t know when he got closer, and almost hugged the girl in his arms. He lowered his head slightly, buried his face in the girl’s fair neck, and said in a muffled voice: “Jiang Qiao, I only have you, you can’t leave me………………”

The tall man leaned against her neck, his tone was vulnerable and he hugged her tightly as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.

Jiang Qiao's arms and waist were hurt by the man's tight hold, but she didn't have the slightest thought of struggling. She just felt that Lu Xun was insecure.

The usually calm and cold man looked like a large dog that had fallen into the water, pitiful and helpless. The contrast was too great, but Jiang Qiao did not dislike him at all. Instead, he felt a great deal of heartache and pity for him from the bottom of his heart.

Feeling that the force holding him had tightened, Jiang Qiao immediately replied: "I, I won't leave you......"

Lu Xun loosened his grip a little and lowered his voice so low that it was almost inaudible. "Jiang Qiao, please don't lie to me, okay?"

The neck was rubbed lightly and it seemed to be warm and moist. Jiang Qiao thought Lu Xun was crying, and his breathing stagnated. He almost said immediately: "No, I won't lie to you."

She was filled with the thought that Lu Xun was crying. Her mind automatically flashed with his cold and broken face. Her rationality instantly flew out of her mind and she was completely unable to understand the current situation.

The soothing active ring was placed on the man's strong waist. She felt a pain in her waist, as if it was pinched. She hissed but did not move: "Don't go to the restaurant to do odd jobs, and don't participate in any talent show."

"Being a trainee is very hard, and there will be people who bully you." Jiang Qiao analyzed the jobs earnestly, but he didn't dare to say it too obviously, for fear of hurting the man's self-esteem.

Jiang Qiao discovered today that the always calm and mature Lu Xun was just pretending. In fact, he was also a young man who could feel sad and confused.

She shouldn't always think that Lu Xun is so invulnerable, and shouldn't think that Lu Xun is so scheming. Lu Xun just likes her, and there is nothing wrong with that.

After waiting for a long while without any response, Jiang Qiao tried to stand up again, but was pushed back again. She was a little anxious and was about to speak when Lu Xun finally spoke, with no emotion in his voice:

“………………If I don’t work, I’ll have no place to live and no food to eat…” Lu Xun’s voice was slow and there was a hint of bitterness if you listened carefully.

Jiang Qiao: “……………………………………”

Jiang Qiao was stuck, with a pair of big eyes full of confusion, as if he was trying to make a decision.

In a place where Jiang Qiao couldn't see, the man's face was calm and composed. There was no trace of the usual coldness in his dark eyes. It was clearly a dark desire that could not be dispersed. His warm lips fell on the girl's neck from time to time.

An unknown amount of time had passed. Lu Xun's eyes grew darker and darker. Just as he was about to add fuel to the fire, the girl finally spoke up and said, "You can live at my house first."

"If you want to work, you can be my bodyguard first, and then finish your studies while working." Afraid that Lu Xun would disagree, Jiang Qiao quickly added: "Anyway, we usually need to hire bodyguards, so I'm not giving you a backdoor, and the salary of a bodyguard is quite considerable."

It was a very considerate explanation, but the man didn’t know that he didn’t care about it. Lu Xun slowly raised the corners of his lips, and finally relaxed and put his chin on the girl’s petite shoulder: “Okay…”

Confirm the relationship tomorrow!
