novelHis Thought Processes Have Always Been Very Clear
| ← Ch.1304 | Ch.1306 → |
Cai Jingyao remained silent. Lu Jinbei raised a hand, wanting to pull Cai Jingyao into his embrace. He lowered his voice and said, "I know you're anxious about my family. Can you bear with it for me?"
Cai Jingyao struggled."No, I..."
"Jingyao, you were the one who wooed me in the past! Now I'm going to be the one wooing you... I'm going to get my marriage certificate with you no matter what. Trust me!" Lu Jinbei then pulled Cai Jingyao into the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Lu Jinbei was bent on getting married to Cai Jingyao. Seeing that she couldn't push him away, Cai Jingyao angrily flung his hand away.
Lu Jinbei looked at his hand, perplexed.
"Lu Jinbei!" Cai Jingyao frowned, her chest heaving violently.
"I promise you that we'll be together for the rest of our lives! No one is allowed to back down today!" Lu Jinbei pulled Cai Jingyao back once again.
Lu Jinbei clearly didn't think the same way as Cai Jingyao did. His thought process had always been simple. Clearly, Cai Jingyao was rejecting him, but he brushed it off as Cai Jingyao worrying that their marriage would strain his relationship with Lu Jinnan even more, so she wasn't willing to marry him.
Seeing that she was about to be dragged into the Civil Affairs Bureau, plus the fact that Lu Jinbei no longer had any use for her, Cai Jingyao wanted to make things clear...
But after giving it some thought, she felt that it would be easier for them to meet in the future. Hence, she lied, "Lu Jinbei, I'm not sure if I want to marry you now!"
"Don't worry about Lu Jinnan..."
"It's not because of Brother Jinnan, it's because of you, Lu Jinbei. I thought... I had already taken over your heart, yet you told me that you still have Bai Xiaonian in your heart. You said you'd eventually give me all your love, but Lu Jinbei... what do you take me for? Do you think my love is that cheap?"
Cai Jingyao then turned around to hail a cab.
Lu Jinbei stood rooted to the ground. He was just... telling the truth. He cared about Cai Jingyao and didn't want to lie to her.
When Lu Jinbei chased after her, Cai Jingyao had already left.
Lu Jinbei then went to Cai Jingyao's place, but he realized that he couldn't get in...
Lu Jinbei stomped at the door for two whole days in frustration, but there was no news from Cai Jingyao. The dejected Lu Jinbei could only return to the Lu family with their household register.
Seeing his dejected son return, Lu Jinbei's father heaved a sigh of relief. At least they hadn't registered their marriage. This was a good thing! As expected, his eldest son was right. Cai Jingyao indeed never intended to marry his son...
However, Lu Jinbei wasn't discouraged by this. He took a shower, ate his fill, and rested for a while before looking for Cai Jingyao again.
He felt that he couldn't lose someone who loved him so much. If he lost Cai Jingyao, he didn't think he would find another woman who loved him as much as she did in this lifetime!
If Cai Jingyao wanted her entire heart, then he'd give it to her!
It was as if Lu Jinbei had gone crazy. He didn't even go to work and was only focused on following Cai Jingyao around like a shadow, making her feel vexed. Yet, Lu Jinbei was still Lu Jinnan's biological younger brother, so she couldn't really fall out with him!
Cai Jingyao heard that other than being at the company, Fu Huai'an would go to where Lin Nuan was filming or recording a show. She found out that Lin Nuan and Director Hu had worked together for another movie, and they were currently filming. Lin Nuan was acting as a guest actor at the director's request, and these few days were Lin Nuan's scenes.
Cai Jingyao had an idea, so she quickly went to look for the filming crew's assistant director. She planned to visit the filming set in the next two days... so she could meet Fu Huai'an.
That day, Cai Jingyao went for a drink with the assistant director. Cai Jingyao was good at smooth-talking others, so the assistant director quickly agreed to let Cai Jingyao act as the second female lead's good friend. He even promised to ask Director Hu about giving her more scenes with the female lead. She was told to grasp this opportunity well.
It was also because the actress, who acted as the female lead's good friend, was unable to make time due to her other productions that the assistant director felt that there was a high chance of success if he asked Director Hu to replace the actress for the role.
Cai Jingyao was famous overseas, and this type of role was actually below her level...
But she had no choice as her only chance to meet Fu Huai'an was on that filming set.
The assistant director sent Cai Jingyao home and couldn't resist taking advantage of her in the car. The two of them were intimately kissing in the car when the door to the driver's seat suddenly opened. Lu Jinbei tugged at the assistant director's collar and pulled him out of the car. He raised his hand and punched him, causing the assistant director's nose to bleed.
"Damn!" the assistant director exclaimed.
Cai Jingyao was about to go nuts. Why was Lu Jinbei here?
Cai Jingyao hurriedly pushed open the car door and got out of the car. She pulled Lu Jinbei, who was still punching the assistant director, back."Lu Jinbei, are you crazy? What are you doing?"
"This person is taking advantage of you!" Lu Jinbei's eyes were on fire.
Cai Jingyao hurriedly ran over to help the assistant director up."Are you okay?"
"Cai Jingyao!" Lu Jinbei gritted his teeth as he shouted Cai Jingyao's name.
"Damn, Xiao Cai... who is this?"
Cai Jingyao explained awkwardly, "This is my younger brother. I'm sorry... he got you injured! Should I send you to the hospital?"
Lu Jinbei stared at Cai Jingyao in disbelief. Cai Jingyao actually said... he was her younger brother!
"Cai Jingyao!"
"Your younger brother is way too aggressive! Fighting an elder without any reason! Take good care of him!" The assistant director glared at Lu Jinbei. Clearly, he was also afraid of Lu Jinbei's tall stature. He wiped the blood from his nose and got inside the car.
"I'm sorry! I'm really sorry..."
After watching the director leave, Cai Jingyao turned to look at Lu Jinbei furiously."Have you gone crazy? Why did you hit him?"
By now, Lu Jinbei had calmed down...
Just now, when he saw Cai Jingyao kissing the man in the car, he thought it was the man who went over to kiss her forcefully!
However, looking at Cai Jingyao's reaction after getting out of the car, he could tell that she was a willing party.
Lu Jinbei felt cold all over."You can't... you can't do this just because I still have Bai Xiaonian in my heart! You'll ruin yourself!"
Cai Jingyao was so angry that she was about to laugh. The shoulder bag on her shoulder slid down, and she held it in her hand, her eyes burning."I might as well tell you the truth. Lu Jinbei... I've never liked you! Not today, not yesterday, nor all those years ago. Not ever! I've only been making use of you! I used to hang out with you in school to prove that I'm prettier than Bai Xiaonian!"
Lu Jinbei felt a lump in his throat and subconsciously shook his head, unwilling to believe it.
"I got together with you again after returning to the country because I was aiming for Lu Jinnan. Do you understand?"
"I don't believe it!" Lu Jinbei clenched his fists tightly.
Cai Jingyao laughed softly. She raised her bag for Lu Jinbei to look at."My bag... Any of my bags cost a six digits figure. Lu Jinbei... do you think you can satisfy me? Be it in terms of physical needs or lifestyle needs!"
