The fingers on his shirt were trembling slightly.

When she said this, it was as if she saw her ideal husband and happy marriage take off from her. Her bright future was bleak, and she went from being a girl from an aristocratic family to such a fate... Only by becoming a slave could she relieve the hatred of the Lu family and repay Lu Yun's love...

Lu Yun suddenly reached out and put his hand on her face, feeling the tears on her face.

Lu Yun asked indifferently, "Does staying with me make you feel so wronged?"

Wiping away tears, Luo Lingyu choked up, "I am also a girl from a noble family. Other girls from noble families marry for status, but I have no parents to protect me, so I have to be a slave. I am so ashamed. My sister will also be looked down upon like me... After all, I am considered a peerless beauty. I have practiced music, chess, poetry and painting for more than ten years and I am proficient in them all. I am not behind anyone in cooking and dancing... There are knots all over my fingers, and the tip of my index finger is also worn rough. I pick flower dew in the morning and grind spices at night... But I want, I want..."

Lu Yun leaned over, his face almost touching hers, and she immediately retreated from her tears. Luo Lingyu held her breath and watched the white gauze he enlarged before her eyes. Lu Yun stroked her wrist and said, "What if you put 20% or 30% of the care you put into other men into me? You wouldn't be so miserable."

Luo Lingyu: "Nonsense. I have never had any feelings for other men."

Lu Yun was stunned, then burst out laughing. He knew that she was a heartless person, but he still felt happy when she admitted it herself. Lu Yun lowered his eyes, and his fingers touched her hands, because he could feel that she had been sincere to him. Langjun chuckled, his breathing was mismatched with hers, perhaps because his eyes were covered by gauze and he couldn't see, his face brushed against hers lightly. Hot air spurted, Luo Lingyu's cheeks were bloodshot, there were tears in her eyes, but her heart was beating fast.

Lu Yun smiled in her ear, his lips almost touching her earlobe. Shivering, Luo Lingyu tried hard to resist the urge to cover her ears. Luo Lingyu blushed, her beautiful eyes turned, she responded to his teasing, saw his face slowly turn red, and felt his hot breath. He rubbed his lips and ears against hers, and seemed to be moved... Luo Lingyu said softly: "If you really can't get better, I am willing to serve you for the rest of my life. But I am so beautiful, why can't you give me the status I deserve, so that I will be more willing?"

Lu Yun paused, then smiled: "Give you a huge sum of money?"

Luo Lingyu's eyes lit up.

Lu Yun listened to her movements with his ear to the side. Hearing her breathing quicken, he paused and said, "I'll keep you company again."

Luo Lingyu nodded happily.

Lu Yun tangled his hands around her hair, his lips curved in a mocking smile: "Good farmland, a mansion, a business, the title of legitimate wife. I'll share everything I have with you, how about that?"

This time, Luo Lingyu was really happy. She nodded repeatedly and laughed out loud.

Lu Yun was amused by her, and he couldn't help but pinch her face, and scolded her with a smile: "Why do you love money and power so much?"

Luo Lingyu covered her cheeks, her face hurt from being pinched by him, and she couldn't help but whimpering. Her voice was soft like a cat's meow, and she snorted twice, and Lu Yun's expression changed subtly. Suddenly, he wanted to remove the gauze on her eyes, wanted to press her under him, wanted to get closer to her, to see what expression and appearance she had now. He was eager to do something, but reason reminded him that the wound on his face had not healed, and he tried to pull back his uncontrollable emotions. But when Lu Yun spoke again, his voice was already a little hoarse and tense: "... Lingyu, I want to ask you."

Luo Lingyu: “Hmm?”

Lu Yun: "You know I can give you everything you want, why do you treat me like this?"

Luo Lingyu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she lifted her eyelids, her beautiful eyes like waves, looking at his handsome face. His voice was neither high nor low, perhaps because his eyes were covered by gauze, the soul-devouring pressure did not oppress her, allowing her to breathe under his beauty. Lu Sanlang did not say it clearly, but he knew it well. They both knew that he was talking about the previous sale of the glass armlet.

Luo Lingyu lowered her eyes: "..."

He was always brooding over it and could not let it go. Even if he convinced himself to give her the steps and wanted to reconcile with her, the glass bracelet was still a thorn in his heart. As noble as Lu Yun was, he could not convince himself unless he removed this thorn.

Luo Lingyu's hand was held by him, and she trembled slightly. There were many things she might never say or admit in her life. If things went well, she would never show weakness in front of him. But if Lu Yun was ruined like this, and she had to compensate him for his whole life...she had to show weakness and make him feel that she was wronged.

Luo Lingyu told the truth: "Because... you are different."

Lu Yun's eyes narrowed slightly beneath the gauze.

Luo Lingyu looked up at him and said, "I am both afraid of you and not afraid of you. I think this is it, but I also know it won't be like this."

Lu Yun was quiet.

Luo Lingyu: "If another man gave me an armlet, I might not sell it. Because I dare not, I dare not give such a big handle to others. I am afraid that after the incident, the world will know that I am so cold-hearted and poor. But it doesn't matter to you. You look down on me in the first place, and you know I will do this no matter what I do. When you gave me the armlet, it was obviously because you were attracted by your beauty. How much care can you put into it? You really never asked me again. Lu Xuechen, you clearly didn't care about it, how can you blame me for not caring?"

Lu Yun's chin slightly tightened: "I never throw away anything you gave me."

Luo Lingyu's eyes were filled with tears again, and she smiled brightly: "But I'm poor!"

Lu Yun: “…”

Luo Lingyu: "I can't sell to others, so I have to sell to you. You are just angry, you have never thought about how difficult my situation is. Other girls are of noble character, they are not extravagant in wealth and power, and they will stick to the rules even if they are poor to death. But I am a person without rules. You knew it from the beginning, why are you settling accounts with me now?"

Lu Yun immediately pinched her face again, causing her to scream in pain.

Lu Yun joked, "Sister Yu'er is still good at making excuses and can turn black into white. But you have to remember that you have to keep your integrity here with me. I give you things, I don't want you to return them in front of me. Next time I find you playing tricks on me..."
