Chapter 362: Chapter 360 The Persistent Girl (6th Update)

”Brother Lu, you are my forever hero, no matter what happens, I will never leave you. I’ll remember that you are always the hero who saved my life in my most dangerous moment, and I will wait for you...”

I still remember that when he moved away from the district, the girl’s ethereal yet resounding voice echoed in my ears, making Lu Tianxing unable to let go, unable to forget this tenacious girl.

It was when Lu Tianxing was lost in a myriad of thoughts that he suddenly felt a body with a slight tremble leaning against his own, a fragrant breeze assailing his nostrils, and his arm immediately enveloped by someone.

”Tingting.”

Lu Tianxing was slightly startled and quickly pulled the car over to the side of the road.

Yue Tingting buried her head in Lu Tianxing’s chest, clinging tightly, and murmured as if talking to herself, ”Brother Lu, do you know? After you left, how much I missed you. Brother Lu, do you know? After you left, I tried to forget you, but I couldn’t. Every day when I close my eyes, I see your shadow in my mind.”

”I remember how Brother Lu made me happy when I was sad, how you shared my happiness when I was cheerful. I remember you getting angry for me and taking me to buy clothes, taking care of me gently. You accompanied me to parties, the way you sang in front of me. Brother Lu, do you know? The past year has been the happiest time of my life because I was not alone or lonely with Brother Lu by my side.”

”I don’t call Brother Lu because I don’t want you to think that I can’t do anything, that I’m just a burden. But today I realized, no matter how hard I try, I can never catch up with Brother Lu’s pace. Brother Lu, you’re like a true dragon that has soared from the shallows to the skies, while I’m just an ugly duckling on the ground that will never become a swan. I can only look up to your soaring figure in the sky, praying silently for you. I don’t care if Brother Lu you notice this ugly duckling, if you’ll stay for me, but I don’t mind these things. As long as Brother Lu is happy, that’s enough.”

Yue Tingting’s voice was soft, echoing in the car, carrying an indescribable sadness and persistence, making one unable to resist wanting to protect and comfort her.

Lu Tianxing was silent; he had never thought he would be so important in this girl’s heart. He had thought of keeping his distance from Yue Tingting because he believed that her affection was just gratitude for saving her life. Over time, perhaps she would forget. Yet now, Lu Tianxing realized just how important he was to this girl.

Sometimes loving someone doesn’t require waiting for her; just seeing her happy is enough.

Lu Tianxing opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but not knowing what to say, because he knew anything he said now would be meaningless—he could not offer Yue Tingting any promises.

”Brother Lu, I don’t want to be a teacher anymore; I want to quit my job and become a career woman like your wife,” Yue Tingting suddenly let go of Lu Tianxing and said, biting her lip.

”Tingting, what are you saying?”

Lu Tianxing’s face changed drastically, his eyes widened, looking at Yue Tingting in disbelief.

Ever since he met Yue Tingting, the one thing he heard her talk about the most was her ideal of being a teacher who educates. Moreover, Yue Tingting had made unimaginable efforts to achieve this goal. But now, Yue Tingting was telling him that she no longer wanted to be a teacher, and it seemed somewhat unbelievable.

”Tingting, this isn’t something to joke about,” Lu Tianxing said gravely.

”I know.”

Yue Tingting nodded lightly, her gaze shimmering as she looked at Lu Tianxing, ”Brother Lu, I’m not a child anymore. I know what I want to do. I don’t want to be a burden to you, nor do I want to need your help all my life. I want to become someone like your wife, someone who can help you instead of being a burden to you.”

Yue Tingting’s voice was resolute, imbued with a girl’s unique determination and certainty. It was only after meeting Bai Zhiqing that she realized the gap between herself and Bai Zhiqing. However, she would not admit defeat. If Bai Zhiqing could be successful, why couldn’t she? Sooner or later, she too would succeed in becoming a woman who could help Lu Tianxing.

Looking at Yue Tingting’s stubborn eyes, Lu Tianxing sighed deeply. How had he managed to earn the admiration of so many girls?

”Tingting, why do you have to... I....”

Before Lu Tianxing could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt a fragrant breeze hit his face, and a cool, soft set of lips pressed against his. A pretty and stubborn face was inches away from his, and her resounding words echoed in the car.

”Brother Lu, there’s no need to persuade me. The decisions I’ve made won’t change. I, Yue Tingting, will not be outdone by anyone. With my actions, I’ll show everyone that I’m not just a little sheep forever hiding behind you. One day I’ll become someone who can help you, just like your wife. Eventually, I’ll make everyone realize that I, Yue Tingting, am not your burden, but your assistant...”

...

Along the spacious road, a Bentley sedan drove smoothly with Lu Tianxing inside, smoking a cigarette. His expression kept changing as his mind replayed Yue Tingting’s firm words from when he dropped her off at home.

After a long while, Lu Tianxing exhaled heavily, letting nature take its course.

Driving back to Ziyuan District and parking the car in the garage, Lu Tianxing had just walked inside when he saw Bai Weiwei sitting on the couch, looking cross. As soon as she saw him come in, she huffed and turned her head away, clearly in a ”I don’t even want to bother with you” mood.

”Uh!”

Seeing this, Lu Tianxing was briefly taken aback. What was up with his sister-in-law now? Had she taken gunpowder? He didn’t seem to have offended her today, so why was she acting like this? Could it be that it was her ’special time’?

After glancing at Bai Weiwei, Lu Tianxing looked around the living room and inquired, ”Weiwei, where’s your sister?”

Bai Weiwei glanced at Lu Tianxing, snorted coldly, and said, ”Humph, don’t talk to me. I don’t want to speak with a scumbag like you.”

Lu Tianxing looked at Bai Weiwei with a face full of disbelief, wondering how he had become a scumbag again, and said with a wry smile, ”Weiwei, what’s wrong today? I don’t think I’ve offended you, have I?”

”You haven’t offended me, but you’ve offended my sister. Tell me, where did you go just now? Why did my sister come back crying? Speak up, did you do something behind my sister’s back, and then she caught you red-handed? Confess and you might be treated more leniently. Come clean.”

Bai Weiwei suddenly stood up, rushed over to Lu Tianxing, pouted her lips, and glared at him indignantly, her petite chest almost pressing against his body, drawing Lu Tianxing’s sideways glance.
