Chapter 138 Indirect Kiss
Although Ms. Wen said they couldn't afford a luxury hotel, their wedding was indeed held at the best hotel in the city.
The math class representative stared at the food laid out on the table and exclaimed sincerely, "How much does this meal cost?"
The class representative, who was sitting next to him, couldn't stand it anymore. "Can you please stop acting like a country bumpkin? You're embarrassing yourself!"
The math class representative retorted, "I just spoke my mind, how is that shameful?"
"If you're so capable of expressing your feelings, then when you get married in the future, you should also hold a wedding banquet at this hotel with dozens of tables."
"You just wait, I'll definitely have my wedding here with dozens of tables!"
The way these two argue seems a bit childish.
As Xia Zhen watched the show, she opened her mouth, and Lu Jin, holding chopsticks, fed her an abalone.
The class representative for Chinese language immediately lost interest in arguing with the person next to her. Her eyes lit up. "My God, it's only been a short time, and Lu Jin is already spoiling Xia Zhen like a child?"
The people sitting at their table were all classmates. Upon hearing this, they also looked at the aloof-looking boy with teasing eyes.
Xia Zhen smiled, "Lu Jin is introverted and doesn't know what to say to you, so he can only find something to do with me."
Lu Jin, an introverted man, glanced at the girl with a quiet gaze.
The math class representative noticed that the person he had been arguing with had suddenly become interested in other people's business. He muttered, "A perfectly healthy person still needs to be fed. I stopped needing to be fed when I was four years old."
He was kicked under the table.
The class representative for Chinese chuckled twice, "What do you know, you unromantic person? Just shut up."
The math class representative shut up and touched his leg with a pitiful expression.
Xia Zhen sat to Lu Jin's right and to Gao Ling's left. She asked curiously, "Class monitor, didn't Teacher Wen say that we shouldn't hold the wedding in a hotel that's too expensive?"
Gao Ling: "Teacher Wen said that when this store was holding its anniversary celebration, her fiancé won the first prize, which means he can get a discount on the wedding."
Since the hotel arrangements were handled by the man's side, Ms. Wen hadn't inquired about them beforehand, only saying that a regular hotel would suffice. However, she never expected that when it came time to get married, the man would give her a surprise.
Xia Zhen smiled knowingly, "Looks like the groom is quite lucky."
I just don't know if this luck is backed by money.
Lu Jin asked her in a low voice, "Would you like a drink?"
"want."
So he handed her the glass with the drink inside.
While drinking her beverage, Xia Zhen also glanced at Su Nuo sitting opposite her.
Logically speaking, Su Nuo, as the top scorer in the college entrance examination, should be enjoying immense success, but he remained silent.
When the classmates were pooling their money with the class monitor, they joked, "I wonder if Su Nuo and Lu Jin are half-brothers, they're both so quiet."
Someone replied, "How do you know Lu Jin is quiet, and not just quiet towards us?"
Yes, judging from how Lu Jin and Xia Zhen usually have so much to talk about, he doesn't seem like someone who's quiet.
Xia Zhen thought Su Nuo wouldn't come today, but she didn't expect that not only did he come, but he also paid a gift to the class monitor just like everyone else.
Suddenly, a hand turned Xia Zhen's face back.
She had barely opened her mouth when a piece of meat was already being put inside.
Lu Jin asked softly, "Zhenzhen, is it delicious?"
Xia Zhen nodded obediently and said indistinctly, "It's delicious."
Good, she now knows she shouldn't stare at other boys for so long.
The math class representative reminded the person next to him, "Hurry up and eat, or Lu Jin will take all the good food."
The class representative for Chinese language held her face in her hands, gazing wistfully in the direction where the couple was sitting. She said contentedly in a dreamy tone, "I'm already full."
Xia Zhen tugged at Lu Jin's hand and whispered, "I want to go to the restroom."
"I'll go with you." He took her hand and led her toward the restroom.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one on the road, Xia Zhen said with a grin, "Lu Jin, I dreamed about you last night."
"Um."
Aren't you curious about what I dreamt you did to me?
"Not curious."
Xia Zhen muttered unhappily, "I'm really curious whether you did anything to me in my dream."
Lu Jin: "I wasn't dreaming."
"Really?" Xia Zhen looked at him suspiciously, and grabbed his other hand. "Then why don't you dare touch me with this hand?"
Lu Jin's whole body was tense, and the hand that she was holding was stiff beyond belief.
Xia Zhen raised her little face and said with a smile, "Every time we met before, you would hug me with both arms when I rushed over, but today you only hugged me with one arm."
The boy's reddened ear tips began to feel hot.
Xia Zhen said smugly, "Girls in love all have a sixth sense, and I'm so smart, you can't hide it from me."
Lu Jin began to regret accompanying her towards the restroom. Why was no one passing by here, allowing this girl to be so audacious?
He spoke with difficulty, "Zhenzhen..."
"Hmm?" She stared at him with her eyes crinkled, as if waiting to hear what kind of charade he could come up with.
Lu Jin's mouth was dry. As the girl approached step by step, his back was pressed against the wall, and there was nowhere left to retreat. His hand was still stiff and he dared not move. Faced with her all-knowing and amused gaze, he had no choice but to admit defeat.
He found it difficult to say, but forced himself to whisper, "I'm sorry."
He shouldn't defile her, not even in his imagination.
Xia Zhen blinked. "Why should I say sorry?"
She took his hand and pressed it against her face, her smile widening. "I really like it."
Lu Jin: "..."
She suddenly turned her head and kissed the fingers of his hand.
Lu Jin trembled slightly.
She smiled mischievously, "Let me comfort you with this first. I promise, next time it won't be an indirect kiss."
The girl let go of his hand, humming a little tune as she turned around and skipped towards the women's restroom.
Lu Jin stood there blankly for a long time, those four words echoing in his mind.
Indirect kiss.
My whole hand started to feel inexplicably hot, and it caused other parts of my body to feel hot as well.
The boy turned his back, raised his hand to the wall, and pressed his whole body against the cold wall, hoping to use the wall's warmth to cool himself down.
His Adam's apple bobbed, and he tugged at his collar slightly. When he realized it had little effect, he closed his eyes and silently kept chanting numbers in his mind.
I managed to suppress the burning anger that was about to erupt from my body a little.
It was at this moment that he keenly noticed the gazes of those around him.
Lu Jin opened his eyes and turned his head to look over.
The young man was tall and slender, and looked even more refined and handsome in his suit. He smiled slightly and said, "Would you believe me if I said I was just passing by and didn't see anything?"
Lu Jin: "..."
Isn't he the groom today? Why isn't he getting ready to go on stage? What's he doing at the toilet door?
Perhaps realizing that his words were unbelievable, Chen Jiang sighed helplessly and had to tell the truth: "Okay, I'm just too nervous. Right now, I'm a little... a little scared."
Is this cowardly man really the ruthless person who stabbed his own father in the back?
