As he hugged her from the back, s.h.i.+ Guang’s hand dropped down naturally as the hand towel dropped into the sink. Her neck was filled with nothing but his warm breaths; a little itchy, and causing her entire body to go fuzzy all over.
Closing her eyes, she tilted her neck slightly and moved her lips, yet saying nothing.
“Littly,” He called for her.
“Hmm?”
Lu Yanchen’s head was buried in the nook of her shoulders. He too had merely called out for her without saying anything more after. The kitchen was dead silent save for the sounds of their heartbeats.
“Little Chen…” Grandma’s voice suddenly drifted in, especially piercing in the current situation.
s.h.i.+ Guang’s body froze up. When she caught sight of grandma who was standing at the kitchen entrance, she struggled by instinct.
Lu Yanchen went along with the flow and released her. Extremely embarra.s.sed, s.h.i.+ Guang could not help but look at her grandma uncomfortably. “Erm, grandma, this…”
Grandma was holding back her laughter acting as though she had seen nothing. “It’s fine, it’s fine… It’s just that we’ve got no soy sauce at home anymore. I just wanted to tell you guys that I’m headed out to buy some.”
Even more embarra.s.sed, s.h.i.+ Guang’s face flushed. “Grandma, I’ll go! I’ll go!”
Not waiting to see what grandma’s reaction was, she rushed out with her hands covering her face.
Lu Yanchen smiled at grandma. “I’ll accompany her.”
“Sure, sure!” Grandma sn.i.g.g.e.red out. After they were gone, she shook her head in amus.e.m.e.nt. Gosh, they had already been together for so long and were even married now, and yet they were acting so shy. Youngsters, really!
s.h.i.+ Guang walked with haste. When she caught sight of Lu Yanchen behind her with her side glance, she felt a little out of sorts and carelessly neglected the fact that there were steps right in front of her.
Instantly, she tripped and her body toppled forward, losing her balance immediately.
Looking at how she was about to slam face first onto the ground, s.h.i.+ Guang’s face was drained of blood and she instinctively reached out, wanting to use her hands to push against the fall. However, she was grabbed by the waist.
Lu Yanchen’s voice could not conceal his concern. “Watch out!”
“T-Thank you!” s.h.i.+ Guang straightened her body and stumbled back a couple of steps, pulling some distance from her and Lu Yanchen.
Lu Yanchen’s fists were instantly gripped tightly as he repressed every trace of emotions in his eyes, speaking softly, “Sorry.”
Even if he had much to tell her, he did not know how to go about it at this moment. However, he did indeed owe her an apology and a thank you.
s.h.i.+ Guang’s lips curled with an extremely faint hint of a smile as she looked at him. “Why are you apologizing?”
Lu Yanchen reached out and caressed her cheeks dotingly, saying hoa.r.s.ely, “If not for me, your family wouldn’t have…”
Those words had s.h.i.+ Guang frowning as she cut him midway. “If not because of you? Don’t think that way, it’s not your fault! There’s no need for you to apologize. If we were to talk about the past, we might as well say that nothing would have even happened if I had not left my sister alone with you and went for the compet.i.tion alone.”
That moment, Lu Yanchen felt his heart thump even more furiously as his dark pupils dilated while he spoke in a deep voice, “You’re blaming yourself and… you want a divorce?”
s.h.i.+ Guang’s chest was extremely stuffy, as were her nose and eyes.
She was filled with reproach, regret, and heartache. However, she did not blame Lu Yanchen, neither did she regret saving him.
If everything were to repeat, she would have done the same. However, she would not be rus.h.i.+ng over for that champion’s t.i.tle, and would wait with her sister to send him to the hospital.
But, if that were the case, she would wonder about why she had to make a choice between saving someone and going for a compet.i.tion.
She was underestimating men’s greed.
She looked at Lu Yanchen and asked softly, “If I were to say yes, would you agree to it?”
