A warm feeling welled up in Lu Jianshen's heart, an indescribable joy. He no longer had to suppress his feelings.
For so many days, he had been hoping that Tang Li would know his feelings, yet he was also afraid that she would discover them.
This feeling of constant anxiety and unease is unbearable.
Now, things have finally taken a turn for the better; they should have been honest with themselves from the start.
If you love, then love!
Hiding and evading doesn't mean you don't love them enough; it just means you're a cowardly coward!
"Tang Li, let me protect you."
Tang Li was shocked and could hardly believe her ears.
Was he confused from being in the rain, or was he having a fever and nightmares?
She looked into Lu Jianshen's eyes, "Do you know what you're saying?"
Lu Jianshen was very serious. There were some things he had wanted to say for a long time, things he had kept in his heart for many years.
“I’ve always been clear-headed. From the moment you first walked into the Lu family home, from the first moment I saw you, I liked you.”
Tang Li was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses.
She looked at Lu Jianshen and asked, "What about Xu Anuo?"
"What Xu Anuo?"
Lu Jianshen was completely bewildered, not understanding what those words meant at all.
Tang Li decided to be more explicit, "Isn't Xu Anuo your girlfriend?"
Lu Jianshen didn't know what he had done wrong to cause Tang Li to misunderstand.
Why do you think she's my girlfriend?
Tang Li lowered her eyes, a hint of disappointment in her expression. She whispered, "You even asked me to design jewelry for her."
If she's not his girlfriend, why is he so concerned?
It was because he designed jewelry for Xu Anuo, but he did it to help Tang Li!
Lu Jianshen felt speechless for a moment, but also somewhat relieved that she had brought it up herself.
Otherwise, keeping it to themselves would have truly become a thorn in their side.
If there are any problems, they should be clarified promptly.
"Lili, I am... Don't you think she's a rising star and also a great jewelry display case?"
At the same time, Xu Anuo sneezed, which seemed very strange. Someone was targeting her again. How annoying.
Tang Li was stunned.
Could it be that Lu Jianshen repeatedly made Xu Anuo wear the jewelry she designed not as a gift to Xu Anuo, but to have the renowned actress promote his products?
"You don't mean you want Xu Anuo to sell my products, do you?" She was a little incredulous.
Lu Jianshen smiled and said, "Her ability to sell products should be pretty good."
Immediately afterwards, he looked intently at Tang Li, needing a definite response from her.
"Lili, I'm no longer running away from my feelings. Can you give me a definite answer?"
Tang Li's mind was still in turmoil; she didn't know how to respond, even though she was attracted to him.
Can……
After experiencing a series of setbacks, her heart has changed. Now she is indifferent and clear-headed, and no longer cares so much about love and romance.
"I feel a little dizzy and my head hurts a bit."
She felt a wave of dizziness and fell into Lu Jianshen's arms.
Lu Jianshen was anxious, so he quickly carried the person into the car, drove home, and called the family doctor.
Tang Li had fallen into a deep sleep, but judging from her tightly furrowed brows, she was not sleeping soundly.
"Doctor, what's wrong with her?"
After examining her, the doctor put away his stethoscope. "Ms. Tang may have gotten caught in the rain and has a slight fever. She'll be fine after some rest. I've already given her an injection."
Lu Jianshen nodded, feeling a little relieved.
"Chen Lei, could you take me to the doctor?"
In the latter half of the night, the rain subsided slightly, but the occasional whistling wind and pattering rain could still be heard. The temperature dropped a few degrees, but the air quality improved.
Tang Li, lying in bed, groggily opened her eyes.
Lu Jianshen was still in her bedroom, with a dim nightlight keeping her company all night.
"Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?"
When Lu Jianshen saw that she was awake, he quickly came over and touched her head with concern.
Thankfully, the fever has subsided.
Tang Li's voice was hoarse, "What time is it? Why is it so dark? How long have I been asleep?"
She threw back the covers and was about to get up when Lu Jianshen stopped her, telling her to rest.
“You’ve been working too hard lately, probably because you’re rushing to finish the blueprints. You don’t need to push yourself so hard. Take it slow. It’s already 8 p.m..”
It's already 8 PM.
Tang Li vaguely recalled what had happened during the day, and felt a surge of nervousness, unsure of how to face Lu Jianshen.
Although escaping was shameful, it was useful, so she simply pretended to have completely forgotten what had happened during the day.
Lu Jianshen confessed his feelings to her... and she reciprocated by confessing her feelings in return.
Was he sincere? Or was it just a fleeting infatuation, a deception to deceive her?
Some people deliberately brought it up, trying to make her remember what they had said: "Do you remember what you said before you passed out?"
Tang Li pretended to be stupid.
"I... I don't quite remember."
Lu Jianshen narrowed his eyes slightly, a sly smile on his face. "Then do you need me to help you review it?"
As he drew closer to her handsome face, Tang Li's heart pounded.
She quickly blushed and backed away, saying, "No need, I remember."
"Lu Jianshen, aren't you afraid that I'm using you at this moment... since I'm already desperate?"
At this time, the Tang family was in decline, and she was seen by others as a fallen heiress, worthless, clinging to a straw and unwilling to let go.
Lu Jianshen wasn't afraid; he knew that he only said he loved him because he wanted to climb the social ladder and turn the tables.
Lu Jianshen's eyes were deep and thoughtful. "I've been waiting for this for a long time. Even if you come to use me, I'll be happy. But since you haven't used me, I wish I could come to you on my own initiative."
