novelWho Wants You To Treat Me Well Now
| ← Ch.0144 | Ch.0146 → |
They had just kissed for a moment, and the knocking outside the door continued on."Qingqing."
The man retreated and left.
Ning Qing sat up on the bed. Lu Shaoming stood up handsomely, and put on his wool sweater, which she had just removed, in a gentlemanly fashion. He did not look at her, and his plain eyebrows were tinted slightly with irritation.
This was still the first time that he showed his irritation towards her.
Ning Qing knew that she had made a mistake again. She went to tug his shirt sleeve timidly."Shaoming, you are going to the office now. When are you coming back?"
Lu Shaoming did not linger, and he retracted his shirt sleeve."If our lives continue on like this, there is a constant third party around, then I'll have to live in the office until it passes."
He... wants to live separately from her?
Ning Qing widened her huge eyes in shock.
Lu Shaoming put on his clothes and inserted a hand into the pocket of his trousers. He gave Ning Qing a light glance and continued, "Oh right. I plan to hire Ye Ting in the afternoon. I don't have a choice. You are not performing the role of a wife too well, and you can't even take care of your own husband's personal life. I actually do need a personal secretary."
Ning Qing: "..."
Lu Shaoming directly opened the door as the girl was in a daze, then walked with huge strides.
...
Ning Qing rose up from the bed. She went to the door, and Mu Yunfan was still standing outside.
"Qingqing, did Young Master Lu leave? Why did he not stay to have dinner? Oh right, I could not find the television remote just now, so I knocked on the door to ask you where you put it."
Ning Qing went into the living room. She bent down to pass him the remote, which was placed on the coffee table in front of him, and said, "Mu Yunfan, did you really knock on the door to look for the remote? Are you being childish, or are you treating me as a fool?"
Mu Yunfan took the remote, and he had a gentle smile as he said, "Qingqing, I know that you are still angry with me. I can explain the things that happened last night, I was drugged at that moment; I was under the control of medication. Qingqing, we have known each other for 20 years. Could it actually be that you do not believe Older Brother Yunfan?"
Ning Qing nodded her head expressionlessly, and said, "Yes, I believe you."
When Mu Yunfan heard her say "believe, " his heart sunk instead. Sometimes, people don't get worked up because they no longer care enough to; she had already gave him the death sentence inside her heart.
"If you are still my Older Brother Yunfan, then I will look for a flat for you later. You should move out of here."
"What, Qingqing? You are chasing Older Brother away? Older Brother moved back from Singapore to T city for you, and you would bear to do this?" Mu Yunfan never thought that Ning Qing would actually be able to say those words.
They had 18 years of friendship between them.
"Older Brother Yunfan, there are many words that I can't say. We don't have to voice them out, but we understand these things clearly in our hearts. I am now Lu Shaoming's wife, and I love him very much. In my life, there would not be a man other than him. Whether you like me or not, you did not participate in the things that happened 3 years ago. These two weeks, you have done many things that made me feel embarrassed, and I would not look for an explanation; I would treat it as nothing has ever occurred. In the future, you are still my Older Brother Yun Fan. If you were to meet with any difficulties, I would still help you."
Mu Yunfan's eyes contracted painfully, and she actually thought of the things that happened 3 years ago.
She was intelligent and quick witted. Some things only need a little hint to figure out, and it would be clear the things that happened 3 years ago and him possibly liking her were related to one another, and she had guessed so.
But she did not want to guess.
She asked him to move out. The two of them would keep a clear distance from one another. In the future, if he ran into difficulty, he could go to look for her; this was how she interpreted their relationship now.
Mu Yunfan found that the girl standing in front of him now looks like a stranger; when did she become so direct and clear cut?
He was her Older Brother Yunfan.
Ning Qing said whatever she wanted to say. She would no longer have a guilty conscience, and she walked towards her own room.
"Qingqing, I would definitely never move out of here!" Mu Yunfan firmly exclaimed behind her as she closed the door.
Ning Qing closed her eyes. She was a little tired.
...
Ning Qing changed into a new set of clothes, . She did not eat at the condominium, and she went to Guang Qing to look for Lu Shaoming.
But Zhu Rui said that Lu Shaoming went for a site inspection, and she waited inside the office.
She waited around and felt bored. She went into the lounge in his office. She removed her shoes and lay on his bed to sleep.
She had not been sleeping well for this period of time.
She lowered her gaze to smell the blankets. He definitely slept here last night, and there was a strong scent of his crisp and clean smell on the blankets.
Ning Qing curled sideways, and she changed into a pink round collar wool sweater. She channelled her gaze downwards, and she could see the red hickey below her collar bones.
Umm, she missed him.
She missed all of him.
Ning Qing closed her eyes as she blushed. The pillow was very soft, and she could smell masculine scent on it. She buried her small face inside mesmerizingly.
...
He heard that Ning Qing had come. He had long predicted that she would come. He had said "his spirits were dampened, " and he was impatient towards her. She knew she had to come, and Lu Shaoming entered the room.
He removed his wool coat and threw it onto the nightstand. The girl was sleeping on the bed. She was just a tiny, curled-up, pink bundle, and she never took up much space.
The amber lights shone down from the head of the bed. She was just so gentle and attractive that no one would be able to tear their gaze from her. Lu Shaoming looked at her, and his entire heart melted.
Ning Qing was woken up by her hunger. She did not eat dinner, and she had used up all of her energy just now. When she was sleeping in a blur, she smelled the fragrance of a meal, and she opened her eyes.
There was a meal tray on the nightstand. There were many delicious looking side dishes on the meal tray. There was a thick, broiled fish soup, and also a bowl of white rice.
"You are awake?" Lu Shaoming stood at the side of the bed. He saw her awaken, assisted her to sit up with her back on the headboard, and added another soft pillow behind her back.
"The dishes have just been served, so they are hot. I was about to wake you for a meal, but I didn't think that you were a tiny hungry kitten who would wake up herself when you smelled the fragrance of a meal." Lu Shaoming stretched out his hand to pinch her tiny nose lovingly.
The man was only wearing a white shirt. He matched it with a pair of casual khaki pants. His entire figure was lanky and elegant. He had showered, and there were there were no signs of soil on his body.
Ning Qing took two glances at him, and she was so shy that she could not say anything. He was a totally different man from the one who was frowning while panting frantically.
She had also been carried by him to take a shower. There were long sleeve cotton pajamas on her body, and it was very comfortable.
But she grunted in pain, "Sii."
"What's wrong wifey?" The man speedily came towards her. Concerned, his large hand touched her small face, and he pecked her red lips as he asked, "Where does it hurt?"
Ning Qing felt wrong in a second. She used her small fist to punch him."Hmph, pervert. You have been giving me the silent treatment all week, playing hard to get. Now you want to treat me well? You just want to get my..."
Ning Qing was embarrassed, and she could not continue further.
"Get your what? Wifey, your body is mine. Furthermore, has this week been my fault? You were in a vague relationship with Mu Yunfan. I am the most innocent party in this all; I didn't even do anything."
Right right right. He did not do anything. He merely made her chase after him round the world.
Ning Qing suddenly felt as if she fell into a hole.
He was the most innocent party? Thinking about it now, he was the party that benefitted the most out of this.
One move was far sighted, and he sat to enjoy the fruits of his labour.
He was too bad; he was extremely competent in maintaining a good front while possessing bad thoughts underneath it all.
Ning Qing did not debate further with him. She could not do so. Everything involving Mu Yunfan was actually her fault. She stretched out her small fingers to point at the white rice."I am hungry now. I want to eat."
"Okay." Lu Shaoming used an empty bowl to scoop half a bowl of fish soup to pass to her."Drink the soup first, I heard that women need to drink more fish soup after doing the deed."
"Oh." Ning Qing opened her mouth and allowed him to feed her. She obediently drank mouthful after mouthful of fish soup.
Lu Shaoming used chopsticks to pick the meat off the fish stomach. He meticulously discarded the fish bones and then fed the meat to her.
After eating half of an entire fish, Lu Shaoming took the rice bowl to feed her rice. His voice was gentle as he said, "What vegetables do you want?"
"I want that celery, " Ning Qing directed him.
Lu Shaoming took on the role of a food-mover silently. He served her half a bowl of rice, and touched her small stomach. Only when it was nice and round did he put down his hand in satisfaction.
He took the chopsticks and bowls out, and the man bent down to pick Ning Qing up, bringing her towards the bathroom while he said, "Brush your teeth, wash your face. Prepare yourself for bed."
