Yu Sangwan returned to the guest room departnt and knocked on the director’s door.
The door opened, and the director was dressed in a bathrobe, with an ambiguous expression on his face. "Did you buy it?"
"Yes." Yu Sangwan carefully took it out from the book and was about to hand it to the director.
Suddenly, an arm reached out from the side and grabbed her wrist. Yu Sangwan was startled and instinctively looked up. Facing Lu Jinxuan’s face, which was as terrifying as King Yama’s, she felt an inexplicable sense of guilt considering what she was holding.
Involuntarily, she moved her lips, "..."
"Hmph." Lu Jinxuan let out a barely audible cold snort, clasped her wrist, and pulled her hard into his arms, "Yu Sangwan, do you have any sha left?"
"What?" Yu Sangwan was stunned. What did he an by that?
In the struggle, the box of condoms slipped from Yu Sangwan’s hand. The director picked it up with a puzzled look, "Um, Yu Sangwan..."
"Shut up!" Lu Jinxuan glared at him viciously, as if he wanted to devour him, scaring the director into retreating back into the room and closing the door.
Yu Sangwan frowned and struggled, "Lu Jinxuan, let go! We have nothing to do with each other anymore!"
"Really?" Lu Jinxuan was in a state of rage. He couldn’t believe they had only been apart for a short ti and she had already hooked up with this director? He had Tang Yueze arrange for her to take on advertisents to fulfill her desire to earn money, not to seduce the director!
Lu Jinxuan couldn’t imagine if he had been a mont late, would Yu Sangwan have entered the director’s room? She actually bought such a thing! Other than him... how could she do that with soone else? And, with a greasy middle-aged man!
"So what?"
Lu Jinxuan grasped her wrist and cornered her.
His breath was hot with anger, "You reached out to him? Tell ! Are you short of money? So even such a type is acceptable?"
Yu Sangwan was shocked. He actually thought she... she didn’t know what to say!
"Wanwan." Lu Jinxuan’s fingers lingered on her face, his eyes filled with anger mixed with heartache, "I know you’re living a tough life. Co back to ... don’t degrade yourself like this! Don’t punish this way! I was wrong... forgive , okay? I have money, I can make your life good, and your father’s matter, I won’t hold it against him anymore..."
His tone surprisingly turned humble as he went on.
Yu Sangwan instantly beca cold, looking at him with a half-smile, "So, should I be grateful?"
Lu Jinxuan’s eyes flickered, how did the girl who used to cuddle in his arms beco like this?
"Mr. Lu." Yu Sangwan pushed him away and sighed deeply, "It’s late in the night, are you looking for your ’Sleeping Pills’?"
"I..." Lu Jinxuan wanted to deny it.
Unfortunately, Yu Sangwan didn’t give him the chance, "You truly put in a lot of effort, even followed here? But I advise you not to waste your efforts... I won’t be used by you again!"
Seeing his heavy dark circles and the bloodshot veins in his eyes, Yu Sangwan hardened her heart, closed her eyes, "Whether you can sleep or endure, it has nothing to do with , I don’t care, and I’m not concerned!"
Lu Jinxuan despondently released her hand, averted his gaze, his heart hurting to the point of numbness!
Yu Sangwan also felt bad. She hated how she couldn’t stand up for herself! This man, he’s just using her, why does she still keep thinking about him? Why does his gaze still make her heart ache?
As she turned to leave, Lu Jinxuan unwillingly called her, "Wanwan!"
"..." Yu Sangwan’s back stiffened, but she didn’t stop.
"Yu Sangwan!" Lu Jinxuan called her by her full na, eyebrows tightly furrowed, his tone so sincere, "Listen, without you, I really would die! Without you, I truly can’t manage!"
Unfortunately, Yu Sangwan only curled her lips in a mocking smile.
Words like that, if said when she was clueless about the truth, would have moved her to tears.
But now, she only found it laughable! Yu Sangwan turned back to look at him, shaking her head, "Mr. Lu, you won’t die, it’s just a dose of ’Sleeping Pills.’ Without , you can still find plenty! Really, don’t doubt it."
Without lingering anymore, Yu Sangwan turned around and went back to her room.
Lu Jinxuan stood fixedly where he was, his tall figure even swaying slightly. He painfully closed his eyes, feeling like he could barely hold on! Raising a hand to his forehead, everything went dark in front of his eyes. Suddenly opening his eyes, they beca sharp and intense.
His thin lips curled up wickedly, "Hmph... Yu Sangwan, you’re just like that! Hurting him like this, I’ll make sure you regret it!"
Yu Sangwan returned to her room, where the noise was still ongoing, her colleagues had not dispersed yet. She had no interest in joining, and couldn’t focus on reading anyway, so she wrapped herself in a blanket, covering her head as well. She wanted to sleep but couldn’t, her mind was filled with Lu Jinxuan.
The phone vibrated under the pillow. It was a call from Lu Jinxuan.
Yu Sangwan glanced at it but didn’t answer. The phone kept ringing persistently, so she simply put it on silent mode, and a ssage popped up.
Yu Sangwan, co out, or... you’ll regret it!
"Hmph!" Yu Sangwan sneered coldly. Of course! The tenderness Lu Jinxuan showed her was all an act, what deep love like the ocean? This was the real him! Cold, imposing, and aggressive, doing whatever it took to achieve his goals.
Recently, just to coax her into willingly being his ’Sleeping Pills,’ he had truly humiliated himself.
This ti, Yu Sangwan simply turned off her phone, now... it was quiet.
She didn’t know when her colleagues left the room or when she fell asleep, but it seed like he was still in her dreams...
In the morning, they were about to start work.
Yu Sangwan followed her colleagues out of the lobby and ran into Tang Yueze.
Seeing Tang Yueze was not surprising, Yu Sangwan thought that since Lu Jinxuan had co, Tang Yueze should naturally be here.
However, when Tang Yueze saw her, he imdiately caught up with her, his tone anxious, "Miss Yu, have you seen Mr. Lu?"
"Hmm?" Yu Sangwan was puzzled, "What? Why are you asking this question? Aren’t you supposed to know best?"
Tang Yueze hurriedly shook his head, "No, Miss Yu, maybe you thought this was all arranged by , but the truth is, Mr. Lu secretly ca to see you... He was afraid you’d be upset, so he didn’t dare get too close! But when I ca here, there’s no sign of him at all!"
"..." Yu Sangwan paused, her heart suddenly empty, "How could sothing happen to him? I saw him last night."
Tang Yueze frowned tightly, "But there’s no record of his room here, nor his car... his phone is unreachable!"
"Then where would he go?" Yu Sangwan panicked, "Don’t keep looking at ! I really don’t know... hurry and search! The Lu Family is so powerful, finding soone shouldn’t be difficult, right?"
"Yes!" Tang Yueze nodded, couldn’t help but glance at Yu Sangwan, she was clearly so worried about Mr. Lu, why keep enduring like this? Both of them suffering!
