âYes, itâs me!â
He admitted it pretty straightforwardly!
âSo this woman, is she Han Qing?â
âItâs Han Qing!â
ââ¦..â Nanxi gets agitated, her eyes gets watery again, biting her lip, she said, âSo, do you have anything to say!â
âNanxiâ¦â Lu Yinchu frowned, âI admit, indeed this picture is of me and Han Qing. There were a lot of people at that party, everyone was chatting on the balcony, she tripped over her skirt, and I happened to be nearby, I just gently, politely helped her up. I did not kiss her as it seems to suggest in the picture. Itâs just a matter of angle. If you look carefully, both Han Qingâs and my eyes were open, I rarely keep my eyes open when kissing, and you should know that the bestâ¦â
ââ¦..â She understands? She understands my ass!
Okay, the reality is, she wasnât so sure either!
âIf you donât believe me, you can ask Shaojing and Yanming. They were right there, standing not far behind me. This picture was taken very skilfully, completely overlooking them! Howeverâ¦â
He pointed to a black area nearby, âHere⦠a small section of black shoe, no doubt, it must belong to one of themâ¦â
ââ¦â Nanxi bit her lip, listening. It seemed to be so. She looked again at the picture, the angle was indeed a bit strange, and the clarity, was really poor, clearly indicating it was taken surreptitiously, and from a long distance!
Her gaze wavered momentarily, not knowing what to say in the moment!
âSo, Nanxi, youâve misunderstood meâ¦â Lu Yinchu was persistent, he had to seize the chance while Nanxi was softening to clear his name!
Nanxi blinked, her initial coercive aura instantly diluted, her face which was already red, turned even redder!
But, the rebellious thoughts of not wanting to be easily swayed by Lu Yinchu has already started to stir, what to do now?
She gave a light cough, and asked, âWhy was it that you were the only one out of the three men standing nearby who could caught her when Han Qing tripped over her dress? Were you only watching her throughout the entire party!â
ââ¦â The proverb âif the devil is powerless to harm you, he incites you to sinâ she had heard of before finally made sense to him today!
âHan Qing is beautiful, and has a good figure, didnât you feel anything when your hand was around her waist, and you were so close to her?â
ââ¦â The man kissed her face, âWhat do you want me to feel? Hmm?â
Nanxi: ââ¦â
âSilly girl, in this world, the only woman who can make me feel something is none other than youâ¦â His hand moved forward, supporting her fine shoulders, he kissed her neck, âFor example, right now, my feelings are very intense⦠what should I do?â
Nanxi: ââ¦Itâs not working!â
Upon voicing this, she stretched out her hand to pull off the manâs hand, stood up from the CEOâs chair, and withdrew some distance, âLu Yinchu, donât use this trick to cloud my judgement, it wonât work! Moreover, even if this photo is fake! Then, tell me about the tail ring on your left pinky finger, whatâs the story behind it? I accidentally touched your hand last time, and you were very repulsive. Why was that? Also, Han Qing has a pendant very similar to your fishtail ring, did you know that? Both of which, are clearly a pair! Why? Tell me, donât hide it from me anymore, might as well explain it today, so we wouldnât continue to feel uneasy in our mindsâ¦..â
The manâs eyes subtly changed colour, it wasnât particularly obvious, but Nanxi noticed it!
But now that she had spoken out, she had no plans to take her words back!
She bit her lip, stood still, and waited for Lu Yinchuâs reply!
âThis ring was given to me by Xiaoyue!â After a while, Lu Yinchu finally spoke. His voice was slightly hoarse!
Nanxi was taken aback by this answer!
Xiaoyue gave it? The ring was given to him by Xiaoyue? How could it beâ¦..
âLu Yinchu, you â¦â¦â
âI didnât lie to you!â
Lu Yinchuâs gaze was dark, mixed with a faint mist. His thin lips pressed together, and the words from him carried a tremor!
He said, âThe ring indeed was given by Xiaoyue!â
ââ¦â
Nanxi pursed her lips, there was a moment that she regretted nagging about that ring! She wondered if she had done something wrong?
âNanxi, I am sorry, I know that all along you have been curious about the tail ring on my little finger, I did not tell you, not because it has something to do with Xiaoyue, and more certainly not anything to do with Han Qing. As for Han Qingâs fishtail pendant, it wasnât a coincidence, they are a pair, but I swear, her fish tail pendant and my fishtail ring do not have the slightest of relation to a secret affair between Han Qing and meâ¦â
Nanxi scrunched her eyebrows, âThen⦠whyâ¦.â
Why did it turn out this way? Why are you so sensitive about that ring, if it really isnât due to some connection with Xiaoyue as you saidâ¦
Lu Yinchu did not answer immediately, but moved a step closer in front of her, stretched out his left hand, and held up one of her hands!
When the two of them held hands, Nanxi felt his palm was a little wet, a little hot, but still, very warmâ¦
âInterlock our fingers!â Lu Yinchu instructed!
Nanxi curled her five fingers, and intertwined them with Lu Yinchuâs, then, she sensed something strange!
âLu Yinchu, youâ¦â
âCan you feel it?â
ââ¦Lu Yinchu, what happened to your left hand?â
The man smiled, his handsome lips curved into a charming smile, âNothing much, it was due to a car accident eight years ago. At that time, my little finger was wholly cut off by shattered glass, the nerve sensation was damaged. I did not receive good treatment afterwards and so it was left disabled!â
ââ¦â Nanxi stood there like a wooden chicken, after a long while she did not know what to say. She just felt a heart-wrenching pain!
Lu Yinchu lowered his head, kissed her forehead, stroked her soft hair and spoke tenderly, âSilly girl, donât worry, donât be sad. Even though my left hand is disabled, it doesnât stop me from wanting to embrace you tightly. I will hold onto you tightly, and will never let go for a lifetime!â
âNanxi, you have no idea how much I love you!âhe continued, stretching out his left hand to pull her into his arms, holding her tightly!
