Chapter 242 Please Wait for Me
Lu Qian ran wildly, running all the way from the garden.
She pursed her lips tightly, her eyes were red, and she looked like she was about to cry in the next second.
If Lu Qian didn't know about his return, her longing for him might still stay quietly in her heart, but as soon as she knew the news about him, Lu Qian's emotions were uncontrollably about to burst out of her chest, and she wished she could fly directly to Cheng Yi.
She ran anxiously, her long hair swaying with the intense movement, and her breathing became very unstable.
When he ran to the main hall door, he happened to see Ling Shuo explaining something to his men.
Lu Qian gathered her clothes, walked straight to Ling Shuo, and asked, "Where's your boss? Is he back?"
When Ling Shuo saw Lu Qian, he was startled at first, then nodded, "You're back..."
Lu Qian's face immediately lit up with joy, "Where is he?"
Ling Shuo lowered his head, thought for a moment, and replied hesitantly: "The head of the family should be in... the study."
When she heard the news, her eyelashes trembled slightly.
Lu Qian walked through the door and ran upstairs impatiently. This was the first time she ignored the servants who greeted her along the way.
She was finally going to see the face she had missed for so long.
But the moment she pushed open the door, the expression of joy that was about to cry froze on her face, and she stood at the door of the study, unable to move.
Because next to the person she missed so much, another person appeared.
She saw that Vanessa was leaning intimately on the armrest of the main chair, very close to Cheng Yi.
She was wearing a professional suit that showed off her figure, and the smile on her face was delicate and charming.
The two were looking at a document together.
Cheng Yi supported himself with his arms, and with that angle and posture, it seemed as if he was almost about to embrace Vanessa's slender waist, which was tightly wrapped in her silk business suit, in his arms.
The two heard strange noises coming from the door and looked up at the same time.
The moment Cheng Yi saw Lu Qian, he withdrew the gentleness he showed towards Vanessa and smiled gently.
"Here I come."
Lu Qian froze and nodded blankly.
"……Um."
Lu Qian was a little at a loss. Cheng Yi did not react as eagerly as she had imagined. He did not hold her in his arms and gently whisper that he loved her and missed her, nor did he call her in a slightly erotic way in her ear.
Just two simple words.
She didn't know how to deal with the longing in her heart for a moment.
It was as if the grand gift she had carefully prepared was thrown into the trash without even being opened.
Vanessa glanced at Lu Qian calmly, then returned her gentle gaze to Cheng Yi's face.
Cheng Yi closed the document and gave Vanessa a seductive smile.
"Thank you for your hard work in Spain this time."
A gentle and soft word, like praise, also like pampering.
"Master, you're too kind," Vanessa brushed her long hair behind her ears and smiled softly at Cheng Yi. "It's my duty to help the Master solve his problems."
After she finished speaking, she moved her whole body closer to Cheng Yi and raised her hand to put it on his shoulder.
Cheng Yi withdrew his big hand from the armrest of the chair and threw the document in his hand onto the table.
"You go back first."
Vanessa's face fell slightly after being rejected.
She was obviously unhappy when she heard this, but she still maintained the attitude of a well-behaved and loyal woman.
"Yes, Master."
Vanessa straightened her clothes and walked away slowly.
When she passed by Lu Qian, she gave her an angry look. She really wanted to strangle this woman who ruined her plans.
At the same time, there is a strange sense of pride.
Vanessa is undoubtedly the first contributor to the quelling of the unrest in southern Europe. She has proved with her success time and time again that Cheng Yi simply cannot do without her.
She held her head high and walked out.
Lu Qian looked at Cheng Yi, standing there in a daze.
Cheng Yi still looked lazy, and every move he made was full of arrogance and frivolity.
He opened his arms and embraced Lu Qianliang.
"Why are you standing there? Why don't you come over?"
Lu Qian felt a little pain when he saw the familiar hands.
If she had come a little later, would this embrace have become Vanessa's?
She looked a little surprised. Why didn't he explain? If he just explained, she would believe whatever he said.
Lu Qian walked forward step by step. In just these few steps, she thought a lot.
Qu Le told her that Cheng Yi rarely gave people a chance, but for her, he was willing to do it again and again.
The road ahead for both of them is difficult and unknown, but the only certainty is that they will either both die or both be reborn.
Qi Huang told her that Cheng Yi was their Holy Lord, and his love was unique in the world and would never be transferred or dissipated.
The only person in the world who could hurt him was her.
Sui Tang also told her that Cheng Yi had no heart, and the flesh and blood in his heart grew out bit by bit through struggle, and every inch and every thread was born for her.
Cheng Yi put her in that hole, and from then on his life or death was entirely in her hands.
Bai Yao also told her that Bai Yao thought he was a reckless person, but he didn't expect to meet Cheng Yi.
Cheng Yi's madness and insanity were something he had never seen in his life, so he regarded him as his opponent.
Bai Yao didn't expect that Cheng Yi would become like this for a woman.
…
Lu Qian never doubted anything anyone said.
But why did her heart ache?
She walked to Cheng Yi, looked at the smiling man, suppressed the sadness in her heart, raised her arms and put them around his neck.
The smile on Cheng Yi's face froze slightly. He reached out his big hands and hugged Lu Qian into his arms, still with that indifferent tone: "Miss me?"
The tone sounded like the flirting of a chance encounter.
Lu Qian didn't answer. She hugged him, feeling the familiar body temperature and smell. She buried her face deeply in Cheng Yi's chest and whispered softly, "Wait for me, please. I'm learning. I'm learning everything. Please wait for me..."
Cheng Yi held Lu Qian in his arms, listening to her incoherent words with a hint of tears in her voice. His golden-brown eyes darkened instantly, and his pupils trembled slightly, as if some emotion was about to burst out of his pupils.
He wanted to touch her soft hair, but just as he raised his big hand, he put it down again.
The two of them just stood there in a stalemate.
Suddenly, Cheng Yi felt that the thin clothes on his chest were a little damp.
The cool touch flowed along his skin and into his blood.
The faint smile on Cheng Yi's lips gradually hardened, and a dangerous light flashed in his golden-brown eyes.
He closed his eyes, trying hard to hide the dangerous aura, without saying a word, letting Lu Qian tremble weakly in his arms.
"Pah, da, patah, patah..."
There was a noise outside the window.
The rain in October always comes as soon as it is expected.
