The cetery is pitch black, and the rain is pouring down.
Le Zhengsheng holds Yu Sangwan in his arms, carrying an outdoor flashlight, slowly walking down.
"Be careful..."
Yu Sangwan is wearing high heels, and in her haste, she didn't pay attention. Now, with the rainy weather, walking becos difficult. Especially nearing the foot of the mountain, the path is all muddy, and as her shoe steps down, the heel gets stuck.
"Sigh."
Le Zhengsheng shakes his head helplessly, Yu Sangwan looks up at him, her eyes innocent, "I didn't do it on purpose."
"Hmph." Le Zhengsheng snickers, "Just a couple more steps. I'll carry you across!"
He hands the umbrella to Yu Sangwan, stretches out his arm, and picks her up.
Like Lu Jinxuan, Le Zhengsheng is also tall and strong, holding Yu Sangwan effortlessly. He even frowns, complaining, "You've been so elusive lately, not a trace of you all day. What have you been busy with? Why have you beco so light?"
Yu Sangwan purses her lips without speaking, and he continues to ramble.
"If this continues, you'll beco a paper-thin person!"
Yu Sangwan's mood lightens a bit due to Le Zhengsheng's teasing. She laughs, "Being slim is great! I'm thrilled!"
"..." Le Zhengsheng is speechless, "How could I like soone as strange as you?"
"Hehe." Yu Sangwan knows his personality; when he says he likes, it's mostly for fun. She's accustod to joking with him, "It's not just ; won, this species, are inherently peculiar!"
Le Zhengsheng nods, adding, "Then you must be a thousand-year-old demon!"
As they reach the foot of the mountain, two beams of light shine ahead, causing Yu Sangwan to squint instinctively.
Car horns blare, a car door opens, Lu Jinxuan steps out, Tang Yueze follows behind him with an umbrella.
Lu Jinxuan's gaze falls straight on Yu Sangwan. He walks quickly, Tang Yueze's umbrella almost unable to shield him, and the rain rcilessly falls on his luxurious suit.
Le Zhengsheng looks down at the person in his arms and smiles bitterly, "Look, he's co after us again... Shall I let you down? He's looking like he wants to kill !"
Saying so, he prepares to set Yu Sangwan down.
"No." Yu Sangwan suddenly clings to him, shaking her head, "I don't want to go with him."
Le Zhengsheng is surprised, looking at her, "Is it really over?"
"Otherwise?" Yu Sangwan feels lost, "Do you want to beco his secret mistress? Just like you said, I've beco the second wife..."
Le Zhengsheng doesn't know what to say, standing there awkwardly holding her.
Lu Jinxuan walks straight over, seeing them like this, irritably lifts his hand, tugs at the tie around his neck... If he doesn't do this, he fears he might suffocate!
Then, stretching his arm, he points at Le Zhengsheng, "Put her down!"
"Oh." Le Zhengsheng smirks, "Isn't this President Lu? How co you have ti to be here? You're not busy lately? I've heard that you and the Gong Family's daughter are about to have good news!"
His sarcastic tone further fuels Lu Jinxuan's anger!
Lu Jinxuan raises his arm, his words powerfully spoken, like hamring into the rainy ground, creating a pit each ti!
"Tang Yueze!"
"Yes!" Tang Yueze is no easy match either. Having been with Lu Jinxuan for years, he's Lu Jinxuan's shadow, a shadow... inevitably follows its master closely! In facing such situations now, he imdiately tosses the umbrella aside, rushing forward with the intention to fight.
Le Zhengsheng remains indifferent, "You two master and servant, are you trying to gang up on ?"
He laughs, "Be careful, I can't afford to bleed."
He's not worried, but Yu Sangwan grows anxious.
She releases Le Zhengsheng, jumping down, "Lu Jinxuan, what are you doing?"
Lu Jinxuan sees her getting down, feels a bit relieved.
In the rain, the light beams shine on them. He extends his hand to her, "Co here! Go back with !"
"Hmph..." Yu Sangwan sneers, "Lu Jinxuan, what position are you speaking from to tell such things?"
"A man!"
Raindrops slide down Lu Jinxuan's stoic cheeks, traversing those sharp outlines, unable to hide his inner sadness... He's genuinely scared.
"Wanwan, I'm your man!"
"Hmph." Yu Sangwan shrugs it off, once so domineeringly sweet to hear, now painfully piercing!
"Lu Jinxuan, I can pamper you, or I can replace you! Now, I've replaced you!"
"Wanwan..." Lu Jinxuan spreads his arms wide, pointing at Le Zhengsheng, "You want to replace with him?"
"..." Yu Sangwan hesitates, stays silent. She doesn't want to use Le Zhengsheng. Le Zhengsheng is a genuine friend, unlike Gong Hongming, who is her enemy!
However, Le Zhengsheng steps forward, proudly raising his chin, "Why not? At least, I don't have soone I'm engaged to."
His burning eyes, fix unwaveringly on Lu Jinxuan... It's a gaze of challenge, pure male rivalry!
Lu Jinxuan's fists slowly clenched.
This ti, even Tang Yueze doesn't hold him back; instead, he adds fuel to the fire, "Young Master, a man must stand tall; death is preferable to humiliation! Today, I'll join you in taking down this man! We must reclaim Miss Yu!"
Lu Jinxuan shakes his right arm, rushing forward like a gust of wind.
"Lu Jinxuan!"
Yu Sangwan calls out sharply, blocking in front of Le Zhengsheng.
Lu Jinxuan halts his steps, looking at her in disbelief, "Wanwan, you're protecting him?"
Yu Sangwan raises her head, "Otherwise? Should I protect you? A man who abandoned ... Why should I protect you?"
"..." Lu Jinxuan's eyes flicker, unable to hide the deep disappointnt.
Yu Sangwan looks directly at him, "I'll ask you one last ti; are you going to get engaged?"
"..." Lu Jinxuan's thin lips tightly pursed, silent for a long ti, "Wanwan, it's just a formality... What I need to do is very important..."
"Enough!"
Yu Sangwan feels hopeless, "Listen, I don't want to know why. Lu Jinxuan, today the fact is, you broke the promise you made to my father on his deathbed... You let fend for myself! No matter how wretched I beco, no matter who hurts , you can only watch... You don't even have the right to regret!"
She takes Le Zhengsheng's hand, "Le Zheng, let's go!"
Le Zhengsheng is stumped, asking her a few steps away, "Wanwan, what did you an just now? Why would you beco so wretched? Who would hurt you?"
Yu Sangwan pauses, curling her lips into a smile, "Nothing, I said it deliberately for him to hear... Isn't it cool?"
Le Zhengsheng: "..."
Cool? Instead, he feels as though Wanwan is about to cry. It seems her heart is brimming with tears, hiding many things that happened while she was away. Can he help her?
