Lu Zhan hugged Shao Jingque tightly, feeling more full and satisfied than ever before, as if such a hug had happened in his dreams countless times, and finally his dream came true today.
Shao Jingque felt like she was dreaming. She never expected that one day she would be held tightly in Lu Zhan's arms like this. She couldn't help feeling dazed, as if the two of them had always been so good and that unpleasant memory was just a dream.
The blazing flames rose before Shao Jingque's eyes, burning her face. She suddenly came to her senses, pushed Lu Zhan away, punched him hard in the chest, and said angrily:
"Are you crazy?! There's a huge fire in the yard and you're still rushing in?! Don't you want to live?!"
Lu Zhan looked at her worried expression. Even though he was punched, he couldn't help but feel happy.
This at least shows that Shao Jingque still cares about him.
He stared at Shao Jingque intently, his eyes gleaming, and said solemnly:
"I thought you were in there."
Shao Jingque was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that Lu Zhan's seemingly "reckless" rush into the sea of fire was actually to save her?
Her heart unconsciously warmed up, and she realized that Lu Zhan should not appear outside the Qi family's door at this time.
"...You came to see me?"
Lu Zhan nodded, his eyes unwilling to move away from her face at all.
When he rushed into the fire just now, there was only one thought in his mind, which was to rescue Shao Jingque from the fire. If he couldn't rescue her... then he couldn't leave her alone in the sea of fire.
Thinking of Lu Zhan's disregard for his own safety and rushing into the sea of fire, Shao Jingque's expression became complicated, and he lowered his voice:
"Didn't I tell you clearly, why are you still looking for me?"
Lu Zhan's expression was extremely serious at this moment. He looked directly into Shao Jingque's eyes for three full seconds, took a deep breath, and then spoke sincerely:
"Jingque, let's start over, okay?"
Shao Jingque was stunned for a long time without saying anything. Tears that she had not had time to wipe away were still hanging on her pretty cheeks. The firelight flickered on her face, and it was difficult to see her expression at the moment.
Lu Zhan stared at her nervously. Although he seemed calm, his heart was already in a mess.
He was looking forward to her answer, but was afraid to hear a rejection from her. This was the first time in the past twenty years that Lu Zhan felt so anxious and worried.
Shao Jingque lowered his eyes, his expression was complicated, and it was obvious that he was not calm inside.
She didn't expect Lu Zhan to rush into the fire to save her, and she didn't expect him to say such words to her at this moment, which made her already weak heart even more shaken.
In such a chaotic scene and such an extreme situation, she was worried whether she could make a calm and correct judgment at this moment, instead of making an irrational decision because of momentary excitement.
She subconsciously avoided the question:
"I have to go see Feiying and Qi Shengzhi."
Hearing this name, Lu Zhan's heart suddenly trembled.
He grabbed Shao Jingque's hand, and after struggling for a while, he finally asked:
"You... and Qi Shengzhi... you..."
Lu Zhan knew that he really shouldn't be entangled in these issues at this time, but when he heard Shao Jingque say the three words "Qi Shengzhi", he couldn't help but feel particularly concerned.
Shao Jingque looked at his increasingly complicated expression and understood clearly—
That day, Qi Shengzhi, eager to create chaos, said that she was living in his house, so Lu Zhan naturally thought that there was a relationship between them.
She had originally intended to use this misunderstanding to create an unbridgeable gap between them, but when Lu Zhan asked her about it in person today, she couldn't even answer...
After an unbearable silence, just as Lu Zhan was regretting asking this question at this time, Shao Jingque whispered:
"...He is my best friend's husband. I am staying at their house temporarily. There is no other relationship between us."
Lu Zhan's eyes suddenly widened, unable to conceal his ecstasy—
Best friend's husband?
So that's how it is!
After Shao Jingque finished speaking, she turned around and quickly squeezed out of the crowd. She didn't know why she had to explain to Lu Zhan. She only knew that her heart was beating fast at the moment and her mind was in a mess.
Unexpectedly, she had just taken two steps when Lu Zhan followed closely behind her.
At this time, the ambulance had already sent the injured to the hospital. Shao Jingque squeezed out of the crowd and had nowhere to hide. He turned around and saw Lu Zhan following behind him. He said anxiously:
"Why are you following me?"
Lu Zhan looked calm and composed, but the upturned corners of his mouth revealed that he was in a very good mood at the moment:
"You haven't promised me yet, so of course I have to follow you."
After learning that Shao Jingque and Qi Shengzhi did not have the kind of relationship he was most worried about, the huge rock that was weighing on Lu Zhan's heart suddenly fell.
He had originally planned to win Shao Jingque back, and now that he knew that he and Shao Jingque already had a child, he had even less reason to back off.
As long as Shao Jingque is still single, I am not afraid even if she rejects him many times.
If it doesn't work once, try it twice. If it doesn't work twice, try it three times. He believes that one day his sincerity will move Shao Jingque, just as he believes that one day he will remember those forgotten memories.
Shao Jingque was a little surprised. Why did Lu Zhan's words sound like he was cheating, as if he would follow her forever as long as she didn't agree.
As far as she could remember, Lu Zhan had used the same tone between them once before, the night before he set out on a disaster relief mission.
That night, Lu Zhan pestered her for a long time. In the end, she was extremely tired and sleepy, but Lu Zhan was still restless in her neck, murmuring in her ear with his satisfied low voice, until she agreed to be responsible for him, and then he held her in his arms and fell asleep contentedly.
Thinking of these past events, Shao Jingque couldn't help but blush and quickly changed the subject:
"I'm going to the hospital to see Feiying and the others. Don't follow me!"
Lu Zhan shook his head firmly:
"No, I'm worried about you going to the hospital alone so late. I'll go with you!"
Shao Jingque didn't expect Lu Zhan to be a completely different person. He was so proactive that she couldn't handle it. She didn't know how to respond for a moment. After holding it in for a long time, she could only say one sentence:
"I'm the one who should say no! When will it be your turn to say no?!"
Her little face flushed red, and she didn't know whether she was angry or shy. Her two round almond-shaped eyes stared at Lu Zhan, as if she wanted to use such momentum to make him retreat.
But Lu Zhan's eyes were only focused on looking at her affectionately, with twinkling stars in them, as if he was looking at his most beloved baby. The smile on the corners of his mouth clearly showed that he thought the tone of her voice and her expression were extremely cute.
Looking at Lu Zhan's doting look, Shao Jingque felt angry but couldn't express it. He could only pretend to be calm and turned around to walk to the side of the road.
Lu Zhan looked at her stubborn back, a rare, slightly mischievous smile on his face.
He said that persistence would pay off, at least Jingque didn't continue to chase him away!
