His eyes were filled with caution, and I knew that was because he cared about me.
My eyes became even redder.
"I feel like I'm a very unlucky person. It seems like I always bring misfortune to those around me."
My voice was choked with sobs, and I wanted to reveal all the vulnerability in my heart to him without any reservations.
Lu Zhiyuan chuckled and pinched my cheek, "You're talking nonsense again."
I curled my lips and shook my head while crying: "I'm not talking nonsense. I really feel like I'm a disaster star. Those who are good to me have been implicated by me."
"Because of adopting me, my adoptive parents died in a car accident. When I returned to the Tang family, my mother lost her marriage and her peaceful life. Che Xiaofeng also lost his father after meeting me, and now he's also missing. And Li Tao..."
The more I talked, the more scared I became. I didn't know who would be the next person to be implicated by me.
Mingyuan? Or Qiu Qiu? Or Lu Zhiyuan?
"Why do you always blame yourself for these things?" Lu Zhiyuan soothed me and wiped my tears.
His voice was gentle, soothing me: "None of this misfortune is your fault. Don't let your imagination run wild."
I didn't want to overthink it, but the recent events kept replaying in my mind, and I couldn't control my tears.
Just when I was crying uncontrollably, my lips suddenly touched something hot.
I was suddenly startled and my eyes widened.
Lu Zhiyuan leaned over and kissed me.
My breathing stopped, I was stunned for two seconds, and then I couldn't help but respond to his kiss.
His kiss was so passionate and lingering that it washed away all the emotions in my mind.
My consciousness was a little fuzzy, and I cooperated with him completely. I couldn't help but reach out and climb onto his back, sticking closer to him.
Lu Zhiyuan's heavy breathing sounded in my ears, and his hand slid from my shoulder and fell on my waist.
I felt inexplicably nervous, but I didn't resist.
I thought he was going to unbuckle the belt on my pajamas, but his hands suddenly stopped.
He raised his body and looked at me with clear and restrained eyes.
I was slightly stunned. I didn't expect him to stop so suddenly.
He gave me a faint smile and whispered in my ear, "I won't take advantage of others."
He gently stroked my face, his eyes full of love, "I won't possess you when you are vulnerable, sad, and not in your right mind. That would be disrespectful to you and would taint my feelings for you."
My face turned red instantly, I bit my lips tightly, and felt inexplicably ashamed.
The moment he was intimate with me, I actually felt a little bit of anticipation in my heart.
I sat up in bed, pushed him away awkwardly, and lowered my eyes to hide my panic.
"I'm going to wash my face."
I stood up and was about to leave, but Lu Zhiyuan grabbed my wrist.
"Aren't you supposed to rest? Why are you still washing your face?"
"I...I'm not sleepy anymore. I'm hungry and I want to eat."
I pushed his hand away, walked out quickly and ran into the bathroom, but I realized belatedly that this was more like running away.
Looking at my blushing cheeks in the mirror, I glared at "her" in annoyance.
"Isn't it just a kiss? We've kissed before, so why are you suddenly so clueless?"
I shook my head, quickly lowered my head and washed my face with cold water, trying to wake myself up.
What the hell is going on in my head?
I was actually inexplicably looking forward to something happening between me and Lu Zhiyuan...
