[Ning Qing, didn’t you ask me to consider then. Actually I have already considered and made a decision that day itself. Let us date; be my girlfriend.]...
His text messages fell on deaf ears, and the girl did not reply to a single text message that he sent.
Lu Shaoming gurgled in laughter. Yin Shuiling was correct. She actually had to bring it to the worst scenario possible, and it was only then that he would regret his actions.
He placed the wine glass down and slowly stood up. He walked towards the door of the bar. He started off by walking, and in the end, slowly, he started to run.
He ran out of the main doors of the bar, and there was a drizzle that descended outside the bar that he did not notice.
Some droplets of rain fell on his body and dampened his shirt. At this moment, he had only one thought in his head. No, it won’t end up like this. He would not let Yin Shuiling get what she wanted. He would not give her to another outstanding man...
He wanted to chase after her.
...
In the Ning family villa
Ning Qing went home, and just as she walked into the living room, she saw both Ning Zhenguo and Yue Wanqing walking towards the door. “Dad, Mum, where are you two going?”
“Oh, Qingqing. Your oldest aunt’s son is holding a wedding banquet today. Your mother and I are participating in the banquet, do you want to go with us?”
Ning Qing shook her head and said, “I won’t be going.”
Yue Wanqing caressed her daughter’s small head and said, “Qingqing, take a good rest at home. Go to bed early. Dad and Mum might come home very late. There are some dishes prepared, you can heat them up to eat.”
“Okay, Dad, Mum. Take care on your way there.” Ning Qing walked both of them to the door.
Ning Zhenguo and Yue Wanqing boarded the car, and the car disappeared from her line of sight. She lay by the side of the door and looked for a moment, and it actually started to drizzle outside.
She stretched out her small hand to feel the droplets of rain. She realized that it was very cold, and she withdrew her hand.
Her period this time was very short; it was over in 2 or 3 days, and her body seemed to be very weak. She felt that something was not right, and her entire body was lazy and fatigued.
She closed the door, turned to go upstairs, and entered her room.
...
After entering her room, she sat on her own bed, and there was a landline on the bed stand. She stretched out her hand to slowly pick up the phone, and she used her small fair fingers to dial the numbers.
After pressing the last number, there was a shout that rang out from below. “Ning Qing!’
Ning Qing felt her entire body freeze, the phone fell from her small hand and landed onto the floor. She did not know if she was starting to hallucinate, and she actually heard...Lu Shaoming’s voice.
“Ning Qing!”
“Ning Qing!”...
The shouts continued to ring out, and this was totally not a hallucination.
Ning Qing felt her eyes contract, and she speedily sprung up from the bed and ran to the windows. She opened the window and looked down. The drizzle had already turned into a pouring rain, and the man’s handsome and lanky figure was standing upright in the middle of the pouring rain. His entire figure was drenched as he looked towards her direction.
He was calling out to her, “Ning Qing...”
Ning Qing felt her entire body freeze, he...
The rain beat down on Lu Shaoming’s entire figure and in his line of vision, at the window upstairs, there was the girl who he loved, and she was using her small head to look at him.
He was still panting. He was halfway drunk while he was driving dangerously for the entire journey. The moment he exited the vehicle, he rushed to stand below her window to call out to her loudly.
He was fortunate that she was still around.
Actually, she was present all along.
Every moment that he turned around, she was in the spot that he could reach.
He slowly curled up his lips into a smile. His handsome features that were soaked in the rain were even more defined – like a sculpture. There was a gentle smile on his face, and after experiencing this rain in spring, it brought along a strong feeling of warmth. Both of his hands were placed by his mouth, and he was shouting, “Ning Qing, don’t be angry with me anymore, okay? I am in the wrong. Ning Qing, give me another chance. I like you; let us date officially.”
Ning Qing froze. What was he saying?
He liked her?
He was asking her to date officially?
Ning Qing used her hand to pinch her own thigh; it hurt, and it was actually not a dream.
Oh my god.
Ning Qing turned around to disappear before the window.
Lu Shaoming did not know why the girl disappeared. She disappeared without a single word, and she did not give him an answer. Lu Shaoming lowered his gaze and looked disappointed while he said, “Ning Qing...”
He wanted to talk, but at this moment, the main doors of the villa opened up before his eyes with a creak. The girl was dressed in a thin yellow dress. She had a pink umbrella, and she was walking towards him slowly.
She walked into the rain and came beside him.
...
She lifted the umbrella up high to help him shelter his body, and the big droplets of rain that were pelting his body painfully were all gently blocked by her. The rain got even heavier and heavier, but the two of them were very close to one another, and they hid under the umbrella in a world of their own.
Lu Shaoming looked at her tiny face and called out her name longingly, “Ning Qing...”
Ning Qing held the handle of the umbrella in her hand. There was a brighter and clearer fog in her eyes compared to this spring rain. Her white teeth that resembled fresh seashells bit down on her red lips, and she asked awkwardly, “Young Master Lu, what are you doing here at my house? Didn’t you despise me for not having my first time with you? You even said that I’ve had many men.”
“No, that is not the case.” Lu Shaoming explained quickly and said, “I was really in a blur in the bathroom this morning because I was so furious. I... you said that you did not want to chase after me anymore. I was afraid...I am clear as to what kind of person you are. You are so innocent and intelligent, and you would never hand over your body so casually. Because of that fact, the man who took away your first time must be a man that you loved very much. Ning Qing, I have never taken your body to heart, but it is your heart that I am interested in.”
From the start, the thing that mattered the most to him was who was inside her heart.
The tip of Ning Qing’s nose was red. She had been so wronged. He lost his memories, and he did not know that the person that she loved all this while had always been him.
But he did not remember any of this anymore.
Ning Qing took a breath through her small red nose, and she was still unhappy. “You and Zhou Zhilei...”
“There was nothing that happened between us, Ning Qing. I am innocent in this.”
“I do not believe that. That night, your trousers were unzipped, and leather belts were removed, and you two were kissing at the door. If I had come a little later, both of you would’ve been in bed by then.”
Both his leather belt and the zipper of his trousers were undone?
No wonder she touched him there the moment she went on the bed that night.
At that moment, when Zhou Zhilei was harassing him, maybe she opened it a little.
Lu Shaoming took a step forward and he stretched out his hands to slowly cup her small face. He would not be so foolish to say that it was Zhou Zhilei who did it. He looked at her gentle eyes and slowly put on a smile on his face. “Ning Qing, we did not kiss. At that moment, we were pretending to do so at the door. The person that undid my belt might not have to be a woman. I was drugged. I could also handle the situation myself.”
Ning Qing’s small exquisite face was crimson red. What did he mean by this? Was he implying that he planned to use his own hands, but she had actually taken the lead to offer herself?
His hands were covered with cold rainwater, but his palms were still very warm. They brought along the comfort of a man’s body temperature, and Ning Qing shut her eyes and used her small face to nudge his broad palms while she said, “Lu Shaoming, what were you shouting below my window just now? I didn’t hear it clearly, could you repeat it again?”
Lu Shaoming curled up the corners of his lips into a smile, and his voice was mesmerizing as he said, “Ning Qing, I like you. Let us date officially, okay?”
“Okay.” Ning Qing nodded her head firmly and said, “Lu Shaoming, I agree.”
She agreed?
Lu Shaoming welcomed her into his tight embrace.
Ning Qing’s small hand let go, and the pink umbrella fell onto the ground. Her clothes were drenched in a moment, and even her eyes were drenched by the rain. She was unable to open her eyes. She had a sniff while she buried her small face in his chest. His body had a light trace of alcohol together with the crisp and clear scent that made her mesmerized.
Ning Qing looked in the distance; the Bentley was parked outside the door of the villa. He had come down in a hurry, and even the door of the car was not closed.
“Lu Shaoming, did you drink?” Ning Qing used her small fist to hit him and continued. “Are you crazy? You drank and drove.”
Lu Shaoming lovingly kissed the hair by her cheek and frowned painfully, “Ning Qing, I went out of the bar and stepped on the accelerator, and it was only then that I realized that I was drunk driving. But I could not care so much. Did you how many days that you ignored me for? I was almost driven mad by you. At that moment, I was thinking, if I met with an accident, would you pity me more?”
Ning Qing’s tears fell out her eyes. This man – was he crazy?
Just because she was ignoring him, he actually thought of using an accident to attract her attention.
He was a mad man.
Ning Qing cried while she hit him forcefully, but she could not hit his shoulders. They were as hard as metal. She could only use her two small hands to hug his strong waist tightly, and sob softly. She wanted to cry out all the feelings of wrong and hurt from this period of time.
“Lu Shaoming, you are such a scoundrel. Other than dominating my love, what else can you do? Since when did you become so childish? Do you know how naughty you are? I went to Finland to look for you, but you got together with Zhou Zhilei! Maybe you felt that there was nothing much between the two of you, but if I did the same thing with another man, would you get angry? You did not even consider my feelings.
“There were so many outsiders at the hotel in Finland. Zhou Zhilei was also present. You didn’t believe me, and did not take my side at all. You have hurt my heart deeply. Did you even know that? After I came back to the country, my stomach really hurt very much. I wanted to invest in the entertainment company, and you made things difficult for me to do so. In the washroom, when I had a whiff of perfume on your body, I felt like fainting, and you still told me those cruel words.
“Lu Shaoming, I am a girl. I would also be petty and jealous all over nothing. Why wouldn’t you take the initiative to comfort me? If you could treat me just a little better, I would be fiercely loyal to you; I would be willing to do anything for you.”
Lu Shaoming hated that he could not place this soft and small figure in his own shoes, and his heart was truly in pain.
“Ning Qing, say no more. I know that I am in the wrong. Sorry, sorry... It was I who ignored you in Finland. It was I who did not believe you, and when I think about the wrongs that you were subjected to, I feel very guilty and I blame myself for it all. There will not be a second time. Let us be together happily...”
Ning Qing wiped all her tears on her small face on his wet shirt, and her sobbing was together with a young girl’s displeasure as she said, “Shaoming, treat me better in the future, okay? Treat it just as if I am begging you, okay? You would never know what I am withstanding right now. You also wouldn’t know how much my heart hurts for you when I look at you now.”
“Okay, okay! Ning Qing, I will treat you well. I will give all of my love to you...”
Ning Qing smiled through her tears. Hearing him speak like this...felt really good.
She felt relieved after hearing his words.
Ning Qing could not withstand the urge to faint anymore. She shut her eyes, and her legs softened. She fainted into the man’s embrace directly.
“Ning Qing, Ning Qing.” Seeing the girl faint, Lu Shaoming felt his eyes contract. He hurriedly picked her up and walked briskly into the villa.
