Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 1003 - 1000: About That Night, I Want to Talk to You
Leng Shuangshuang was frozen on the spot, unsure whether to throw away the stick or not, and could only uneasily look at him. After a long while, she squeezed out a sentence: "Are you okay?"
Lu Jincheng’s pain between his brows and eyes slightly lessened. He withdrew his hand and said in a deep voice, "Why did you hit me?" After speaking, he looked at the stick in her hand.
Following his gaze down, when she saw the stick in her hand, Leng Shuangshuang threw it away as if it were a hot potato, "I thought... I thought a thief had broken in."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jincheng suddenly lost his temper.
What kind of thief would be dumb enough to steal in broad daylight in a high-end neighborhood like this? 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
Without saying anything, Lu Jincheng walked a few steps and sat down at the foot of the bed. A dull pain still emanated from the back of his head, making him uncomfortable. As he touched it, he felt no dampness, so it probably wasn’t broken, but there seemed to be signs of swelling.
He looked up, "Do you have an ice pack?"
Leng Shuangshuang quickly ran out and when she came back, she had an ice pack in her hand.
He took it and pressed it on the back of his head.
One sat on the bed, the other stood beside it, neither of them spoke, and the bedroom was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
After a long time, Leng Shuangshuang spoke, saying, "Why did you come here?"
They had just had such an unpleasant situation in the morning, how could he come to see her in the afternoon? It didn’t add up.
Speaking of this, Lu Jincheng was also full of grievances.
Somehow, today his mom came to the company for an inspection and happened to find out that Leng Shuangshuang had taken leave, insisting he must come to see her.
He refused, using the excuse that he was busy with work, but his mom immediately called his dad, resulting in him finishing all of the next day’s work before leaving.
Helpless, he could only follow orders to come and take a look.
He initially planned to just see her and leave, but he noticed the house was unusually quiet and feared something might have happened to her, so he entered the room to check. Little did he know such an incident would occur.
Thinking of this, Lu Jincheng suddenly raised his head, "Why did you take a leave of absence?"
"Not feeling well." She said as such.
Lu Jincheng scrutinized her but didn’t find anything visibly wrong, and given the force she had just exerted, he said, "If there’s nothing much, call my mom and let her know."
Qing Aunt?
Why should she notify Qing Aunt about her discomfort?
Could it be that Qing Aunt had learned from the hospital about her pregnancy and asked Lu Jincheng to check on her?
Realizing this, Leng Shuangshuang’s face suddenly turned pale. If it was indeed the case...
"You’re really okay?"
Lu Jincheng watched her face turn white within a second, his own face inadvertently showing a trace of tension he hadn’t noticed. How could a normal person’s complexion change so suddenly, turning almost to a pallor?
Leng Shuangshuang shook her head, indicating she was fine, quickly regaining her composure.
From Lu Jincheng’s words, he seemed unaware of this matter.
After thinking it over, she seriously said to Lu Jincheng, "Lu Jincheng, let’s talk."
"What do you want to talk about?"
"About the incident that night, I’d like to discuss it with you."
Lu Jincheng didn’t expect her to proactively bring up that night’s incident. Besides being surprised, he also felt a bit concerned, worried she might say something like not wanting to be responsible.
Leng Shuangshuang moved a stool and sat diagonally across from him, unable to meet his gaze.
Her eyes lingered three feet before his shoes as she slowly spoke: "Regardless of whether you believe it or not, that night wasn’t intentional. I drank too much, and when Xiaomin sent me back to my room, she got my room number wrong, so..."
Her voice didn’t fluctuate much, but when it reached Lu Jincheng’s ears, it felt like a different sensation.
