Chapter 285 Taking You Away From Me
"I thought you wouldn't show up tonight." Leng Xichen said.
"No way." Lu Min walked into the private room and hugged Leng Xichen for a long time.
Besides Yu Zhan, Wen Mo was also present, but Leng Xiangyi was not.
Leng Xichen had already met Leng Xiangyi before coming to meet them, and since she was experiencing severe morning sickness after becoming pregnant, he didn't let her go out and cause any trouble.
Tonight, they will only drink tea, not alcohol.

The next morning.
Wei Qianqian was woken up by her alarm clock.
Summer mornings are brighter than usual. When she woke up, the sunlight was already streaming in, falling through the white gauze curtains onto her pillow and one of her exposed arms.
She was glowing white in the sunlight, her fingers slightly curled as if trying to grasp the warmth of the moment.
She shielded her eyes with her other hand, and although the sunlight wasn't falling on her, the glaring reflection made it impossible for her to open her eyes.
A gentle breeze drifted in through the window, stirring the sheer curtains and softly brushing against her cheek.
"..." She suddenly realized something and jumped up from the bed.
She wasn't at Yuan Chenxi's house; this was Lu Min's villa...
She clearly remembered that before she fell asleep drunk last night, she specifically told Yuan Chenxi not to call Lu Min. So why is she still lying here? Or did Yuan Chenxi bring her back?
She picked up her fully charged phone from the bedside table, unplugged it, and looked at the messages on the screen.
There were no messages on her phone, not even from Yuan Chenxi, so she hurriedly called Yuan Chenxi.
[Awake? So early?] Yuan Chenxi was clearly still half asleep and was surprised to hear Wei Qianqian's call.
【Good morning…】Wei Qianqian checked the time. It was alright; it was her usual wake-up time. Besides, she had to go to work, and if she were any later, she would probably be late.
She turned on the loudspeaker, went to the bathroom to wash up, and said, "Didn't I tell you I was staying with you for a few days? Why did you send me back?"
She was somewhat unhappy.
Yuan Chenxi seemed to have turned over, and the sound of the blankets rustling could be heard on the phone. [Please, I wanted to bring you over to play with me for a few days, but Lu Min is too domineering; he practically snatched you away from me.]
[...] Wei Qianqian, who had just squeezed out some toothpaste, paused. "Did Lu Min bring me back?"
"Otherwise, although I know him well, I'm not close enough to know exactly where he lives." Yuan Chenxi seemed wide awake, and asked with great interest, "He didn't do anything inappropriate to you last night?"
"What could possibly be so outrageous..." Wei Qianqian started getting water to brush her teeth.
"Hey girl, do I really have to spell it out for you? He snatched you away from me so forcefully last night, didn't he have any feelings for you?" Yuan Chenxi was a little incredulous. "His eyes practically killed me."
She spoke frankly about it.
[...] Wei Qianqian spat out the bubbles in her mouth, recalling the day Lu Min secretly kissed her when she was drunk.
She was so drunk last night, could Lu Min have done something he shouldn't have to her?
She looked at herself in the mirror. Her clothes had been completely changed, even her bra was gone, and her makeup had been thoroughly removed...
"Are you listening to me?" Yuan Chenxi looked at her phone; it was still in call status.
"I'm listening." She pretended to be calm, hurriedly finished washing up, and then checked herself over from head to toe.
There were no marks on my body, and I didn't feel any pain. I guess, I guess...
Could it be that he only kissed her?
Wei Qianqian patted her cheeks with both hands.
She prayed that he hadn't changed the clothes.
"Lu Min is a really nice person," Yuan Chenxi said.
"You also think Lu Min is good?" Her question carried a hint of doubt, not an affirmation of him.
Yuan Chenxi chuckled lewdly on the phone.
【Isn't it good? Wouldn't it be better to remove your makeup? Honestly, in our industry, only Yu Zhan and Lu Min have decent reputations. Even Yu Zhan's reputation isn't as good as his. Yu Zhan is a cold-faced man, at least he isn't. The others are all playboys, spreading their seed everywhere. Finding a good man is really difficult.】
[...]
Yuan Chenxi kept chattering, "[You better not be picky, or you won't even get a turn for gang rape.]"
[...] Nobody describes it like that.
Wei Qianqian lay face down on the bed, burying her head under the pillow.
She could hardly imagine Lu Min, a rough and unrefined man, carefully removing his makeup with a cotton pad.
She didn't seem to have any discomfort on her face, which is something to commend Lu Min for; he cleaned it quite well.
"Is it touching here?" She suddenly recalled the moments she had shared with Lu Min in the car last night.
It was fragmented, but we could still piece together a coherent explanation.
"How embarrassing..." Wei Qianqian muttered to herself.
However, Lu Min's pectoral muscles are quite nice, both soft and firm, just like in my dream, and very pleasant to touch.
"..." She couldn't help but feel ashamed of her own imagination.
Knock knock--
Three knocks sounded on the door.
Wei Qianqian's heart was also struck.
She quickly got up and opened the door.
"Why didn't you come downstairs if you got up?" Lu Min's face clearly showed a hint of reproach. "Did I have to come upstairs to wake you?"
"..." Why are you being so fierce?
Wei Qianqian's goodwill towards Lu Min vanished the moment the door opened.
Lu Min glanced at her, and just as he was about to leave, he said, "The clothes are in the washing machine, hang mine up to dry while you're at it."
Should we air out his too?
Did he just throw their clothes together?
Before Wei Qianqian could ask anything, he went downstairs, muttering, "The undergarments are all hand-washed, don't worry."
Wei Qianqian stood there stunned, her chest pounding wildly, her heart pounding as if it were about to burst out of her chest.
There was no doubt that Lu Min had changed her clothes; he had even washed them. Although it was just a casual thing to do, something felt off.
He even hand-washed her bra.
Lu Min seems like the kind of person who would take advantage of others in distress; he's capable of doing something like this.
Wei Qianqian covered her chest with both hands, gently closed the door, pressed her forehead against the back of the door, too ashamed to show her face.
She touched her lips; they felt numb.
Her brain went blank for a moment.
Lu Min, who was coming downstairs, had a smile on his lips.
Wei Qianqian hadn't dared to respond to a single word. Still smelling of fresh air, she stood there blankly.
They look really cute.
When they went downstairs to eat, Wei Qianqian didn't want to pay attention to him, and she didn't want to review what happened last night, but Lu Min insisted.
"Have the clothes hung out to dry?"
"Let it air dry," Wei Qianqian replied in a soft voice.
"Not even a thank you?" Lu Min didn't move his head, but he looked up at her.
"..." Do I need to thank you?
After doing so much for her, I suspect he was only thinking about his own benefit.
Wei Qianqian ate her breakfast silently, ignoring him.
"You little ingrate," Lu Min chuckled. "Isn't the wine at home good enough?"
"No, I had to attend a banquet last night, so I had a couple of extra drinks."
"I thought you were afraid of me, so you didn't dare to drink at home."
"..." It's because I'm afraid of you.
But fear is useless. No matter where she drinks, Lu Min will drag her home and take the opportunity to get 'rewards' for her labor.
It seems I should drink less in the future.
