Chapter 44: Sweetness 1

Qin Ruyan nodded, admitting without any psychological burden.

“I’m not feeling well, I’m tired.” She thought that if she softened and begged, he wouldn’t torment her for the next few days.

Lu Jingchen nodded, didn’t say much, just said okay, and walked out of the bedroom.

After he left, Qin Ruyan reached for her phone from the bedside table.

She was currently under the covers, naked, and she didn’t know where her clothes were after Lu Jingchen took them off yesterday.

She opened WeChat and saw that Zhang Qiyao had sent her 99+ messages, making her feel a bit overwhelmed.

She replied one by one.

After a while, Zhang Qiyao called. She was stunned for a moment, glancing at the door. Lu Jingchen had closed the bedroom door when he left. She answered the call.

“My dear sister-in-law,” Zhang Qiyao’s voice was playful.

Qin Ruyan pursed her lips, her tone unnaturally flattering.

“My dear Yaoyao, it’s all my fault, please forgive me, okay?”

Zhang Qiyao was sitting on her bed at the moment. She hadn’t dared to go out much lately, and only felt safe at home.

“You’re only replying to my messages now, you wouldn’t have just woken up, would you?”

She had sent countless messages and voice notes to Qin Ruyan early in the morning, and it was almost noon now, but she only replied now.

Qin Ruyan didn’t know how to answer this question, so she chose to ignore it.

“Tsk tsk tsk, I really can’t tell, my brother’s so reserved in personality, but he’s quite… in bed?” Zhang Qiyao was now considered an experienced woman, and she didn’t feel any guilt about probing into her brother’s privacy.

“Yanyan, how’s the usage? My brother isn’t the type who’s all looks and no substance, right?”

Qin Ruyan closed her eyes. If he was all looks and no substance, would she still be able to sleep until noon?

“Yaoyao, I think it’s better to discuss this issue after you get married.”

Zhang Qiyao pouted. She had been relentlessly pursued by Ji Feng recently, and it was giving her a headache.

It was just a drunken one-night stand! She didn’t even mind, but he kept clinging to it. He even told her brother about it, making her brother tell her that he wanted her to take responsibility?

Please, she was the one who got the short end of the stick.

There was a knock on the door. Qin Ruyan shrank further into the covers, quickly said, “I’ll contact you later,” and hung up the phone.

Lu Jingchen walked in with a food tray in his hand. He placed the tray on the bedside table and reached for the covers.

Qin Ruyan quickly pressed his hand down.

Lu Jingchen raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

“What are you doing? I’m not dressed yet.”

He hummed in response, his tone teasing, “So, Madam is waiting for me to dress you. It was my oversight, I neglected Madam.”

Qin Ruyan pursed her lips and said word by word, “No, I can’t find my clothes, where did you put them?”

Lu Jingchen didn’t feel any guilt, and lightly said,

“You can still wear them? I remember there was something on the clothes… I washed them.”

He received her threatening gaze and changed his words at the last moment.

Qin Ruyan glanced at him, and calmly said, “Then what should I wear? Go naked?”

Lu Jingchen raised his eyebrows, got up and walked to the wardrobe, opened the door, and took out a black shirt of his and handed it to her.

“Wear mine for now. Your clothes were just sent out for measurements yesterday, and they should be delivered in the afternoon.” He only gave her a shirt, what was she supposed to wear on the bottom?

“Aren’t you going to give me pants?”

Lu Jingchen looked at her face, his gaze then going down, the covers were tightly wrapped around her, not even revealing her neck.

“My clothes, you can even wear them as a skirt, right?” He was almost 190cm tall, Qin Ruyan was 168cm, and she looked petite in front of him.

Qin Ruyan pursed her lips, suppressing the urge to roll her eyes. She couldn’t get angry, getting angry would give her wrinkles. Especially not because of a man.

“Brother, I don’t even have underwear, are you going to let me go commando?”

Her voice was a little urgent, and her face flushed red after she finished speaking.

Lu Jingchen chuckled, walked to the bed, and leaned down close to her.

“I thought Mrs. Lu wouldn’t have the energy to get out of bed today, considering you were begging for mercy last night… I was the one who was inconsiderate. It seems Mrs. Lu doesn’t lack exercise after all. I’ll pay more attention next time.”

Qin Ruyan moved back, pay attention to what? He wouldn’t be thinking that last night’s level wasn’t enough, would he? Did he really think he was a bull? With endless energy? Or did he think she was an unbreakable field? She picked up the pillow next to her and threw it at him.

“Can you have some decency?”

Lu Jingchen caught the pillow and smiled. “Decency? If I had decency, I wouldn’t be able to sleep with Mrs. Lu?”

Qin Ruyan couldn’t take it anymore. She took the black shirt he gave her and put it on. She was pretty fast, and Lu Jingchen only caught a glimpse of the suggestive red marks on her chest and the two obvious kiss marks on her collarbone.

“I’m hungry.” She had a kind of “loud voice, big momentum” attitude.

Lu Jingchen turned his head and picked up the porridge on the bedside table, stirred it with a spoon, and brought it to her. He picked up the spoon, scooped up a mouthful, and brought it to her lips.

Qin Ruyan didn’t hesitate. Since he was willing to feed her, she was happy to be taken care of.

Besides, she had no strength in her whole body right now, all thanks to him. What was wrong with him feeding her breakfast?

She opened her mouth and took a bite. Seeing her obediently eating, Lu Jingchen didn’t say anything, feeding her mouthful by mouthful. Soon, she finished a bowl of porridge.

Lu Jingchen reached out and opened the bedside table drawer, taking out a tissue from inside and wiping her mouth.

Qin Ruyan’s gaze accidentally glanced at the drawer, which only contained a pack of tissues and a full drawer of small umbrellas.

She widened her eyes and pointed.

“You… when did you prepare so many?” Didn’t he say he was a virgin last night? Or was he lying to her? Although she didn’t have any complexes, she felt uncomfortable thinking that he had slept with her after sleeping with others.

Didn’t he say he liked her eight years ago?

Lu Jingchen held her hand and smiled.

“Since I kissed you at the Qin family that day, I prepared them. Thinking that if you didn’t want to be with me, I would just take you by force and lock you up.”

His tone was half-joking and half-serious, and Qin Ruyan wasn’t sure if he was tricking her again.

“Besides, Mrs. Lu, can’t you feel if it was your first time last night? The first time only lasted a few minutes. How long did the next few times last?”

He said some shameless things in her ear, and Qin Ruyan pushed him away.

“Don’t say it, I believe you, I believe you.”

She really was shooting herself in the foot.

Lu Jingchen looked at her flushed ears, pursed his lips, got up and walked out with the tray.

“Wait for me.”

Qin Ruyan hummed in response. She really didn’t want to think about it anymore.

Lu Jingchen put the tray in the dishwasher. For Master Lu to condescend to make breakfast was enough to blind the eyes of a crowd. As for washing dishes, he naturally left it to the dishwasher.

Technology changes life.

After cleaning up, he drank a glass of milk and walked back into the bedroom.

Qin Ruyan was leaning against the headboard, holding her phone, chatting with Zhang Qiyao in a lackadaisical way.

He walked to the bedside and handed her the milk.
