Chapter 67 Let's have a secret romance before you get engaged?
The night was quiet.
After a night of partying, the girls dragged their tired bodies home and immediately crawled into their beds to sleep.
Lu Zhenyu couldn't sleep, so she sat with her legs drawn up in the narrow passageway between the French windows and the bed.
Moving to an unfamiliar bedroom would help her regain some sense of security.
Looking out the window at the night, it felt as if the fireworks show was still playing on the screen.
After a long while, she picked up her phone and sent the edited text message to an unknown number that she had not saved.
A person who can't even have a mobile phone at all times won't have WeChat or a contact list.
The night was deep and the sky was silent.
The Cullinan lies quietly on the corner of the sidewalk.
Leaning against the front of the car, Shen Jingsi quietly gazed at the figure at the second-floor window.
A wisp of ash was flicked away from the scarlet smear between his fingers. He tilted his head and took a breath, exhaling the white mist through his thin lips.
A vibration came from behind him, and Shen Jingsi reached back and pulled his phone out of the car window.
Swipe up to unlock and tap; an unfamiliar number says, "Thank you."
He looked up again, but the figure by the window was gone.
After a moment of silence in front of the text message, I typed a few words.
The villa's small iron gate clicked open, and Lu Zhenyu, wrapped in a shawl, emerged from within.
The text message that hadn't been sent yet was temporarily stored in the text message editing box as she walked towards him, under his surprised gaze.
This is a blind spot; Shen Jingsi really thought he had hidden it well.
After pausing for a moment, she asked with a smile, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Lu Zhenyu looked at him and asked gently, "What about you? Why aren't you asleep either?"
Under the moonlight, the girl's beautiful face seemed to be coated with a filter, her skin white with a hint of pink, and her eyes sparkling.
She must have had a great time at the party tonight.
A profound sense of satisfaction welled up in Shen Jingsi's heart.
Dressed in a pearlescent silk shirt, he exuded an unprecedented air of brilliance and elegance.
I missed you, so I wanted to come and see you.
He is very straightforward.
Lu Zhenyu was also very frank tonight, no longer treating his sweet words as bombs to be avoided, but accepting them steadily.
"I guessed it."
Under Shen Jingsi's somewhat unexpected gaze, she moved closer.
She adjusted her shawl, looked up at the crescent moon overhead, and asked, "Why 'us'?"
Not me.
This was a question the girl had been pondering all night without finding an answer.
He took the coat out of the car and draped it over Lu Zhenyu's shoulders. Shen Jingsi then leaned against the hood of the car next to her.
He glanced at the half-smoked cigarette between his fingers, threw it on the ground, and stubbed it out with the toe of his shoe. "I'm not sure if my love is a burden or a hope for you."
But "we" must be hope.
Shen Jingsi wanted the girl in front of him to know that there were many people in this world who loved her, and many people waiting for her to love them.
So don't think about dying yet, hold on and live a little longer.
Lu Zhenyu stared into his eyes for a long while, then slowly curved her lips into a smile.
She looked away, lowered her head and remained silent for a moment before reaching out her hand. "I've thought about it for many days, and I still feel that it should be returned to its rightful owner."
"What?"
Under the moonlight, the clenched hands slowly opened, and a sapphire button inlaid with gold thread was reflected in the dark eyes.
Shen Jingsi's eyes flickered, and he heard, "When I say thank you, I'm not just referring to tonight's fireworks, but also to all those other nights."
He took the button in his hand and looked at Lu Zhenyu, who was smiling at him.
When did you find out?
Actually, I'd had feelings for it for a while.
But at that time she was too confused, longing for the warmth outside that compound, yet also shackled by the thoughts rooted deep in her soul.
The window was left open late at night, the buttons under the table were broken, and the safety amulet on my neck had suddenly reappeared.
In fact, fate had already given Lu Zhenyu a hint, but she was unwilling to face reality.
By telling herself it was a dream, she didn't have to confront the feelings hidden in her heart, nor did she have to deal with all the troubles that followed.
"Then why are you giving it to me now?"
Lu Zhenyu looked up at Shen Jingsi's downcast eyes, took a slow breath, smiled, and tilted her head.
"Because I suddenly had a birthday wish."
She has six months left until she turns twenty-nine, but six months is too long. She hasn't celebrated her birthday in five years and wants to do it now.
Shen Jingsi asked, "What wish do you have that I can help you fulfill?"
Only you can achieve this.
Lu Zhenyu's soft, fox-like eyes fell on the thin lips that smelled of tobacco. She stepped forward, stood on tiptoe, and gently kissed them.
Seeing the man's surprise, she said, "Shen Jingsi, let's have a secret romance before you get engaged."
The voice was clearly audible, yet Shen Jingsi remained stunned for a full minute.
The girl waited patiently, but her patience was dwindling. "Your reaction, isn't it... um?"
Lu Zhenyu's words were cut off, and her head was grabbed and her lips were pressed hard against his.
Shen Jing's kisses were fierce, quickly igniting the passion in his arms.
She tiptoed and wrapped her arms around his neck, deepening the kiss.
As their kiss grew passionate and their bodies heated up, the Cullinan's door was opened, and the man's large, burning hands grabbed her waist and pulled her inside.
He slumped into the seat, the car door closed automatically, and Shen Jingsi, who was kneeling in front of the seat, pressed down on him again like a hungry wolf.
"Zhenzhen, are you telling the truth?"
With her shoulder strap dangling from her forearm, Lu Zhenyu, her face flushed and her foxy eyes gleaming with springtime allure, gave a soft "hmm."
The ripped collar exuded a hormonal glow, his chest heaving violently as he relentlessly kissed her, rubbing against her soft, round breasts below.
"You're not lying to me?"
The hot breath sprayed onto Lu Zhenyu's cheeks, his large hands roamed over her delicate skin, the heat of his palms soothing every inch of the fair skin he had massaged, arousing the growing sensitivity of the person beneath him.
Lu Zhenyu cupped the head buried in her arms with both hands, her body trembling with each teasing.
She struggles to speak even a single word now, forcing it out through gritted teeth, "I'm not lying to you."
Tear.
Sitting like this, taking off clothes is too troublesome, and the pearlescent slip dress was torn from the neckline all the way down.
Shen Jingsi pulled her forward forcefully with the hand that was on her lower back, and her legs, which were curled up on the leather seat, opened in coordination.
The moment her bent back caved in, her small hands, which had been pressing on her broad shoulders, suddenly clenched.
"Um."
Under the moonlight, two figures intertwined and undulated in the blurry glass window.
As the temperature inside the car rose, the windows gradually fogged up, covering the messy fingerprints left by scratching time and time again.
Much later.
The two bodies leaned against each other in the narrow single chair.
Shen Jingsi held the person in his arms, his coat covering the disheveled body.
His face was buried in the still-damp neck, inhaling the sweet scent of milk.
Feeling the hand around her waist start to wander again, Lu Zhenyu, who was so exhausted that she couldn't even lift her eyelids, said helplessly, "It itches."
The large hand stopped moving and landed precisely on the lower abdomen.
Feeling the small lump slightly gathered in his palm, Shen Jingsi chuckled indulgently, "Have you gained weight?"
Lu Zhenyu: "..."
He gently squeezed the fleshy mound of flesh, and out of nowhere asked, "Could it be that you're pregnant?"
Lu Zhenyu was taken aback, then slapped the hand, saying, "Stop fooling around."
They hadn't taken any measures before, no matter how many times they had done so.
Shen Jingsi thought for a moment, and wondered if her illness would improve if they really had a baby.
Perhaps his importance in her heart wouldn't be enough to keep her, but the child should be.
Thinking this way might be a bit selfish, but Shen Jingsi simply couldn't bear to watch her lose all hope in the world and slowly die.
An unyielding sadness surfaced in his dark eyes as he pressed his lips to her ear, "Then will you give me a baby?"
Should she have a child with Shen Jingsi?
Lu Zhenyu hadn't thought of that.
But if there really is an afterlife, she might really look forward to it.
No, I'm really looking forward to it.
