Chapter 1223 Stop it
Nie Yao was tired of hearing this. She shook her head and pushed his hand away, laughing self-deprecatingly. "Grandpa said that, and you said it too... You keep saying it's for me, but it's all just excuses! I never asked you to treat anyone like this. Lu Heng is my friend and has helped me before. You knew it, yet you kept it a secret from me, treating him like this, and you still said it was for me?"
When Li Jinxing heard the word "friend", his brows furrowed again, and he whispered back, "He is your friend, and I am still your fiancé! Yaoyao, am I not as important as a friend in your heart?"
He paused here, took a deep breath, and his voice became a little suppressed.
"Or, you don't just consider him a friend?"
This is exactly what he is afraid of... He has never liked any woman since he was a child, including his childhood playmate, who was just a playmate!
Only Nie Yao was the woman who truly moved his heart, the woman he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. She was the one he couldn't bear to let go of no matter what...
So he got her in the fastest way possible, got engaged as quickly as possible, put the ring he chose on her finger, and locked her up!
But even so, he would be afraid when he woke up occasionally, afraid that other men would be like him, see her good points, and want to compete with him for her!
So he had been very wary of Lu Heng's approach before, but this time Lu Heng had touched his sore spot.
Lu Heng is a smart man. He knew that Nie Yao was his fiancée, but he still dared to make it a hot topic on the gossip search. This was clearly a slap in the face of Li Jinxing!
Later, the attacks from fans further ignited his anger!
Since Lu Heng dared to ignore his warning, he would teach Lu Heng a lesson in his own way!
But he didn't expect that Yaoyao would confront him after knowing about this, and even blame him for Lu Heng...!
The uneasiness in his heart suddenly magnified. His intuition told him that Lu Heng must have said something to his Yaoyao, or even played the victim!
Before Li Jinxing could think further, Nie Yao shook her head and sneered, "Li Jinxing, I thought I had made it obvious enough. I was even close to showing you my heart, but you still doubted my sincerity..."
After she said this, she sighed deeply and didn't have the energy to argue with him anymore.
"Yaoyao..." Li Jinxing looked at her dejected face and felt a little flustered. He quickly grabbed her hand and said apologetically, "That's not what I meant. I'm just scared..."
Nie Yao raised her head and met his eyes, smiled bitterly and said, "Li Jinxing, I'm afraid too..."
She was afraid that she had misjudged him, that they were not the same kind of people at all!
"Yaoyao..." Li Jinxing wanted to say something, but Nie Yao pressed his lips and sighed softly, "Li Jinxing, Lu Heng is a friend, not an enemy. He wouldn't let you treat him like this! Stop it!"
Li Jinxing lowered his head and looked at her deeply, a complex light flashing in his eyes. He asked in a faint tone: "Yaoyao, did he ask you to come to me for help?"
"No, it's me!" Nie Yao met his gaze calmly, and replied in a deep voice, word by word: "Li Jinxing, just think of it as me advising you, or even begging you, to stop lecturing him like that! He's put so much effort into his career, it shouldn't be stopped like this... You shouldn't be the executioner of his career!"
