Chapter 82: Chapter 81: Lin Qianru’s Counterattack

”I wonder if he’s asleep; I really want to go out and check on him.”

Amidst her scattered thoughts, Lin Qianru’s mind suddenly burst with this idea, startling her enough to vigorously shake her head, trying to fling the thought away. But the more she tried, the stronger the idea grew, swelling like the tide, wave after wave crashing forth.

”I don’t want to go out and see him, it’s just that I’m worried he might be uncomfortable sleeping on the couch; that’s why I want to go have a look. After all, I’m the host; it’s only right to care about a guest.”

With a reason at hand, Lin Qianru suddenly felt justified and cautiously got out of bed, quietly opened the door without turning on the light. Moonlight streamed in through the window, keeping the living room from complete darkness.

Lin Qianru tiptoed like a thief towards the sofa.

Suddenly, Lu Tianxing’s fingers twitched.

Upon seeing this, Lin Qianru was instantly petrified, not daring to even breathe heavily, tension rising to a peak as sweat filled the palms of her hands.

After a long wait, with no further movement from Lu Tianxing, Lin Qianru’s heart, which had leaped to her throat, finally calmed down; she patted her chest in a post-fright manner, almost scared to death.

She carefully moved closer, and finally reached Lu Tianxing’s side. Squatting quietly beside him, she waved her palm gently above his eyes; upon seeing no reaction from him, a smug smile immediately appeared on her lips, like a little fox that had just stolen a chicken, looking exceedingly cute.

At this moment Lu Tianxing appeared to be sound asleep, with his eyes tightly shut, lying calmly on the sofa with even breathing and a faint smile on his lips.

Looking at Lu Tianxing now, Lin Qianru suddenly realized that he was actually quite handsome, especially his mischievous smile which seemed flippant, yet provided an unprecedented sense of security.

Watching Lu Tianxing silently, Lin Qianru recalled the first time she saw him, on a plane flying from the United States to Modu. The man’s display of formidable strength on the plane, his calmness after killing someone, and the feigned fear had made a violent impact that remained fresh in her memory.

She thought she would never see this man again in her life, but it seemed like fate pitied her, unexpectedly bringing this man back into her life. More so, they worked at the same company, solved troubles for her multiple times.

”Could this be destiny?”

Lin Qianru murmured softly. If not fate, why else would she meet Lu Tianxing again in this vast world? His very essence, like a massive black hole, endlessly devoured her gaze and drew her attention, making it hard for her to not want to learn more about this man.

Gradually, the way Lin Qianru looked at Lu Tianxing shifted; she found it hard to look away, and a bold thought suddenly emerged in her mind: would it be okay to kiss him?

”No, I can’t kiss; I am a woman who should maintain a sense of propriety.”

”Go away, what’s the problem with just one kiss? Anyway, he’s asleep, he won’t know anything; what’s there to be afraid of?”

”Lin Qianru, oh Lin Qianru, you’re getting more devilish by the minute; to think you’d initiate a kiss with a man! If this gets out, what would those men who pursue you think? Hurry up and go back to your room to sleep.”

”You don’t even like those men, so why care about what they do. Just a kiss, this man has saved you several times, what’s wrong with a kiss, don’t foreigners kiss all the time? A kiss won’t get you pregnant, did anyone just see it? What’s there to be afraid of.”

Lin Qianru felt a buzzing in her head as if countless little people were arguing and causing a commotion, but once this thought emerged, it swept through her mind like an autumn breeze through fallen leaves and she couldn’t suppress it anymore...

”Just once, kiss and run, he won’t know.”

Lin Qianru kept convincing herself, slowly closing her eyes, puckering her lips in a naive manner, similar to a young girl in the throes of adolescence sneakily meeting with her lover, her body trembling gently, filled with shyness, gradually moving closer to Lu Tianxing.

Lin Qianru’s eyes were tightly closed, her eyelashes trembling slightly as if she were a thief, extremely careful, as if afraid to accidentally wake Lu Tianxing.

Getting closer and closer, she was about to kiss him.

Lin Qianru felt her breathing getting faster and faster, her fingers tightly clutching her robe, not even daring to open her eyes.

Just as she was about to kiss him, Lin Qianru felt something, instinctively opened her eyes, and saw a pair of shining eyes staring at her, the corners of his mouth curled into a familiar mischievous smile.

The bastard was pretending to be asleep!

”Ah!”

Lin Qianru snapped back to reality, startled, and abruptly stood up, a mix of shame and anger: ”Lu Tianxing, you bastard.”

On the couch, Lu Tianxing, who had been pretending to sleep, could no longer continue the charade and awkwardly sat up, revealing a sheepish smile.

In reality, he had indeed fallen asleep, but years of habit had made him always aware of any movement around him. The moment Lin Qianru had opened the door to come out, he had already woken up; he just wanted to see what Lin Qianru intended to do.

What happened next made Lu Tianxing even less inclined to wake up; this woman was behaving just like a girl experiencing the stirrings of first love, crouching in front of him, staring blankly in a daze, with an inexplicable smile on her lips.

Lu Tianxing was an Ancient Martial Artist, the darkness meant nothing to him, he could see in the dark as if it were daylight if he wished, with just a slight opening of his eyes, he saw everything clearly about Lin Qianru, her unparalleled beauty, the fragrance of body wash mixed with perfume wafting over, igniting a flame in Lu Tianxing that made it impossible for him to keep his eyes closed anymore.

Especially when Lin Qianru crouched on the floor, leaning in to kiss him, her loose robe inevitably fell open, revealing the undeniable assets of a woman which could not be covered up, and since she wouldn’t wear anything troublesome to sleep, it allowed Lu Tianxing to clearly see the scene inside, making it impossible for him to control his breathing any longer.

Seeing the embarrassed Lin Qianru, Lu Tianxing pretended to be confused, touching his head in puzzlement, ”Huh, President Lin, why are you out here, did you come out to use the bathroom?”

Lin Qianru, as if she hadn’t heard Lu Tianxing’s words, bit her red lip, her eyes slightly moist, tears swirling in her eyes, looking aggrieved and angry.
