Or did he find the previous games boring and decided to spice things up?

"Lu, are you going to accept? Please say yes." Third Young Master Jun looked at her expectantly, like a young, naïve boy sincerely professing his love for the first time, so anxious and so eager.

"I will accept." Ye Lu blurted it out and then burst into laughter. Was she mesmerized by the intensity of his burning gaze? This man indeed had irresistible charm.

It did not matter anyway. If she refused, he would surely force her. It didn’t matter even if he was just seeking a new thrill.

Third Young Master Jun had no idea about her thoughts. His frigid heart was as if flooded by molten lava. His fervent feelings amassed into a magma, yearning to burst forth. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

He gently cupped her shimmering pale face, bent down, and softly kissed her. She appeared so yielding and adorable, like a sweet angel, making his heart flutter with an overwhelming surge of affection.

He thought, his past stubborn misconceptions were outlandish. With his mother’s abandonment and father’s disgust, he had reasoned that love was nothing but bullshit, leading him to despise marriage, let alone having children and perpetuating such irresponsible mistakes.

But now, his views had changed.

He had not found it before, but now he had.

Did an instantaneous feeling dictate his lifelong emotions? Was he hasty? No, his love and hate had always been intense and obstinate, whimsically incomprehensible to the average person. Yet he trusted his spur-of-the-moment instincts.

Like a moth drawn to a flame, he was willing to risk it all!

"Sweet girl, I like you, I really like you..." His scalding hands gently slid from the side of her face. Taking in her bewildered and naive expression, he tenderly kissed her eyelids once more. Being this close to her brought him pure joy.

Such a move startled Ye Lu, who hurriedly closed her eyes. Seeing her deer-like reaction made him chuckle, filling his heart with tenderness.

Such a feeling was fantastic, utterly perfect.

It made him forget his father’s humiliation, his mother’s abandonment. In his world, without those people, it didn’t matter. Look, he had acquired a more precious treasure, his life could be filled with happiness.

"Ah, what are you doing?" Ye Lu cried out in surprise, her face blushing as she glared at him.

This man suddenly pulled her into his embrace, like a boy experiencing his first love, holding his beloved girl, full of sweetness and happiness.

Seeing her embarrassed and flushed face, Third Young Master Jun teasingly rubbed her cheek, "What’s wrong, don’t you like me holding you?"

Ye Lu gritted her teeth in frustration. She was not accustomed to his sudden caring nature. Was this man in front of her really the dreadful Third Young Master Jun she knew? He was so different from when they first met that she begun to wonder if he had switched to a new form of game or genuinely changed.

Ye Lu quickly scoffed at herself. How could she harbor such unrealistic expectations? How could this man change because of her? She did not believe.

However, she was unaware that Third Young Master Jun was just being considerate of her foot injury, taking care to avoid it. He was extremely fond of her now, not wanting her to suffer any harm, only wishing to tenderly care for her, to cherish her, the woman who was his. He wanted to pamper her, to gradually change her perception of him.

For the time being, Ye Lu had no time to dwell on it.
