Chapter 43 I Really Didn’t Mean to Take Advantage of You



Jiang Manyue didn't feel comfortable answering this question, so she turned over and used the excuse of being sleepy, and ignored him.

Seeing that she was unwilling to answer, Lu Lin had no choice but to close his eyes and lie down, gradually falling asleep.

Jiang Manyue heard his gradually even breathing and knew that he had fallen asleep, so she turned over and lay on her back in bed.

What Miao Xianghua said to her today also made her feel a little anxious.

She originally planned to muddle through these three years, register for the college entrance exam when it was resumed, and then go to university.

Lu Lin also agreed with her that they would play the role of husband and wife in public for the next three years, but in reality they would just be partners, and they might divorce peacefully after the college entrance examination.

But her mother-in-law and biological mother kept urging her and Lu Lin, making her feel that these three years might not be so easy.

This was only Lu Lin's second time back home, and she had only been here a few months. Her mother-in-law and biological mother were already urging her to get married. If they didn't see any progress between her and Lu Lin, they might push her even more urgently.

Jiang Manyue felt annoyed just thinking about it. What if they found out that she and Lu Lin had agreed to cheat them together and had no intention of living a good life? Then there would be no way to deal with it.

Even if she withstood the pressure and managed to pass the college entrance examination, she and Lu Lin divorced and went to college. This matter might make both parents angry to death.

For the first time, Jiang Manyue felt that her previous thoughts seemed too simple and she had not really considered whether the parents on both sides could accept such a result.

Moreover, in order to temporarily appease Miao Xianghua and enable her to live in peace with the Lu family, she had promised her the promise of being an officer's wife. Thinking about it now, she felt a little regretful.

But now the cake has been drawn and the lie has been told, Jiang Manyue is a little unsure how the marriage will end when she and Lu Lin divorce.

Although she could take the opportunity of going to college and leave all these things behind, she had promised the original Jiang Manyue that she would help her take care of her family, and she couldn't just leave like that.

The more Jiang Manyue thought about it, the more worried she became. She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Lu Lin who was sleeping soundly.

In the moonlight, Lu Lin's sleeping face was clearly visible.

Jiang Manyue also had to admit that there was nothing wrong with Lu Lin's appearance and figure. He had broad shoulders, a narrow waist, long legs, and abdominal muscles. He also had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. In modern times, he would definitely be considered a male god.

If she had found such a partner in her previous life, who wouldn't say she was lucky?

An idea gradually emerged in Jiang Manyue's mind: why not give it a try?

But she didn't know whether Lu Lin could accept it. She had just said that she wanted to cooperate, but now she changed her mind. She really wanted to try to look around.

Jiang Manyue sighed, looked at Lu Lin again, and two villains appeared in her mind and started fighting.

Villain A said that Lu Lin is good-looking and has good conditions. Why don’t you take this opportunity to give it a try? Maybe you can really achieve success?

Villain B said, what if you are just being too sentimental? It is impossible for the other person to have such intention, and you will be the one who is embarrassed then.

Each side held its own opinion, which made Jiang Manyue even more conflicted. She felt a little itchy inside, but she was afraid that she was thinking too much and would end up making the cooperative relationship awkward.

Jiang Manyue thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out. However, she couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep.

Maybe because she had something on her mind, Jiang Manyue woke up very early.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she opened her eyes, she would face an extremely embarrassing situation.

She actually slept with Lu Lin in her arms!

Jiang Manyue regretted at this moment that she usually liked to hug her pillow when sleeping. She didn't expect that she would hug it to the side out of habit while sleeping.

Fortunately, Lu Lin was still asleep. Jiang Manyue tiptoed and carefully pulled her hand back. Before moving her legs away, she did not forget to observe Lu Lin, and her eyes met Lu Lin's.

Jiang Manyue was completely frozen, so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole in the ground and bury herself in it.

Lu Lin looked down at Jiang Manyue's leg, which was resting on his, and suddenly smiled. "Is my leg resting comfortably?"

Jiang Manyue hurriedly retracted her legs and explained incoherently, "I didn't mean to take advantage of you. I'm used to hugging the pillow, and I hugged it when I fell asleep. I really didn't mean it."

Lu Lin still smiled, "I didn't say you took advantage of me."

Jiang Manyue wanted to cry but had no tears. "I'm really used to it. I don't mean anything else."

Lu Lin looked at her, pretending not to understand, "What do you mean by no other meaning? What does other meaning mean?"

Jiang Manyue really explained, "I didn't mean to take advantage of you. This is just a personal habit."

Lu Lin didn't seem to care much, "It doesn't count as you taking advantage of me, right? I just acted as a human pillow for a while, I didn't suffer any loss."

Jiang Manyue shrank back and moved away a little. "You, as long as you understand, I will pay attention in the future and will definitely not do this again."

Lu Lin suddenly put his arms around her and said, "Don't retreat, or you'll fall."

Jiang Manyue didn't dare to move for a moment, and her heartbeat suddenly began to speed up. In the quiet room, the sound of her heartbeat could be heard clearly.

But Lu Lin seemed to be just reminding her and quickly took his hand back.

After Lu Lin withdrew his hand, Jiang Manyue turned around to look, then carefully moved a little closer to Lu Lin.

The two fell into silence again. Jiang Manyue lowered her head and was too embarrassed to speak because of embarrassment and some unspeakable emotions. Lu Lin was also hiding something in a place where Jiang Manyue couldn't see him, taking advantage of the dark sky.

After finally making it to dawn, Jiang Manyue quickly got up and went straight into the kitchen under the pretext of making breakfast.

Because the summer harvest was over, Lu Lin came back to live with Jiang Manyue. Li Guifen thought that the two of them would not get up very early, so she got up a little later. When she walked out of the room, she saw Jiang Manyue already busy in the kitchen.

Li Guifen looked at the sky and walked into the kitchen. She saw that Jiang Manyue had already cooked the millet porridge, boiled a few eggs, and mixed two dishes to go with the rice.

Li Guifen felt a little embarrassed for letting Jiang Manyue finish breakfast by herself, as she thought she got up late.

"Man Yue, why are you up so early to cook? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"

Jiang Manyue shook her head and said, "I'm used to summer harvest. I can't sleep anyway, so I just get up and cook."

Li Guifen took the spatula from her hand and advised, "Your father and Jun'an haven't woken up yet. I thought there's nothing to do anyway, so let them sleep a little longer and you can go back and take a nap."

Jiang Manyue didn't want to go back, but Li Guifen kept urging her to go back to her room and sleep for a while, so she had to go back to her room.

Lu Lin had already made his bed and was about to go for morning exercise when he saw Jiang Manyue come in. He smiled at her and walked out while talking.

"I'm going to do some morning exercise. You can rest for a while."

Jiang Manyue grabbed him and said, "What are you doing for morning exercise? Your injury hasn't healed yet, why are you trying so hard to show off?"
