Chapter 205: Never Had Hoped To Be Loved Like This
Yue Wanqing felt her heart hurt immediately. This girl, she merely went on a trip to Europe. How did she manage to get herself injured and return like this?
Yue Wanqing took a warm towel and placed it on her wool sweater. After the hard wool sweater had become soft, she opened the first aid box, and dipped a q tip in some medication to treat her injury with it, using the other hand to peel her wool sweater open.
The girl who was in slumber felt it and knitted her eyebrows tightly together in pain, and she painfully murmured, “Mummy, it hurts…”
Yue Wanqing tried her best to be gentle in her actions. She applied medication and bandaged her wound,then finally placed her small hand into the blanket.
The girl slept for half a day, and there was still not much warmth on her body.
At this moment, Ning Zhenguo pushed the door open and walked in. There was a warm light from a lamp in the room, and Yue Wanqing was busy around her daughter. The scene before him was very warm.
He lowered his voice and asked with concern, “Has Qingqing fallen asleep?”
Yue Wanqing nodded her head said, “Yeah, she has just fallen asleep.” She took the hot water pack out and continued, “I will go and get another hot water pack for Qingqing. This girl’s body is very cold. Zhenguo, go back to the room to sleep; you still have to go to work tomorrow. I will accompany Qingqing tonight.”
Ning Zhenguo took the hot water pack from her and said, “Wanqing, you were busy for an entire day, you go on bed to accompany our daughter then. I will change a hot water pack for you.”
Yue Wanqing did not persist. She removed her shoes, went onto the bed, and slept beside Ning Qing.
The girl felt warmth and speedily made her way over. “Mummy…” she called out gently, and placed her small head over to bury it in her mother’s embrace.
Yue Wanqing kissed her small, pale face, stretched out her hand, and gently made circles around her flat, injured stomach.
Ning Zhenguo returned very quickly, and he pa.s.sed the hot water pack to Yue Wanqing. He lifted the blanket up, allowing both mother and daughter to be under the covers.
“Wanqing, does Qingqing have to go to the hospital since her stomach hurts? You can’t avoid the doctor if you have an illness.”
“Its nothing. It’s a female problem. It’s no big deal. Zhenguo, you should go to sleep.”
Ning Zhenguo touched Yue Wanqing’s head and said,”Wanqing, it is also okay if I do not go to the office tomorrow. You two sleep; I will accompany both of you for a while.”
Yue Wanqing gave a warm smile. They were both over 45 years old and had been through adversity, but their lives now were calm and peaceful now. They went through troubles together, and now they were growing old together.
…
Ning Qing fell asleep, and she did not know that at this moment that there was a Bentley parked downstairs.
Lu Shaoming rushed back from Finland.
He parked the car outside the villa, and wound the car windows down to look up. The light in her room was not switched off, so she was probably at home.
Lu Shaoming took out his phone and dialed her number.
But no one picked up.
He’d already called her many times, but he was unable to get through. She was not willing to take his calls.
Lu Shaoming released the safety belt and slowly let down the seat, and he lazily lay down flat in the seat.
He was extremely fatigued. He had been handling the matters in the Finland factory for the entire week. She had left yesterday, and he had addressed his subordinates with their respective workloads and asked them to continue working before he took his private jet to fly back.
After he got off the plane, he drove over to look for her.
Lu Shaoming placed an elbow under his head using it as a pillow, and sent the girl a text message. [ Pick up your phone.]
They were 4 words. He had stared at his phone for the entire duration, his screen turned off, and he used his hand to make it light up again. It went black again, but there was no answer nonetheless.
He sent another message. [Ning Qing, answer the phone!]
He still did not get a reply.
He had no choice, he sent another message, and his tone became gentle. [Ning Qing, what is wrong with you? Are you very busy? You don’t even have the time to answer a call?]
The girl still did not reply.
Lu Shaoming was frustrated as he threw his phone into the front pa.s.senger seat, and he turned his head sideways. He looked at that warm light from the window.
In the past, she was always the one who ran after him. She worked very hard on Cabbage Plume. He knew that half of her hard work was because she wanted to attract his attention and make him fall in love with her.
Her chasing him around was something that he was used to by now, and now…she was obviously ignoring him. He felt that his heart was empty, and he became distressed.
He was almost starting to think that she was playing hard to get.
But he knew that she was not, she was really hurt this time.
She did not even want to give him the chance to say a line to explain himself.
Lu Shaoming closed his eyes. He was very tired. His eyes were bloodshot, and his eyebrows had a fatigued vibe to them. He felt that he would fall asleep in the next second.
But he could not fall asleep.
Once he shut his eyes, all he could think of was her, and it was her in the room that night.
The room was very dark, and it did not have any light. There was only the moonlight that shone in through the window very subtly. She was on his body and landed in his embrace, and his hand weaved through the back of her head to kiss her. She was really sweet.
It was probably because he kissed her until she could not breathe that she turned her head sideways to duck away from him. He could see her small, delicate face that was blus.h.i.+ng red like a Begonia flower through the moonlight streaming in. Her sharp nose had beads of perspiration of it. She did not dare to look at him, and when she secretly glanced at him, she was like a white piece of paper, and she was inexperienced and shy.
She was what others would call a premium product. That is a good term to describe her..
It was the first time he knew that a girl’s body could be so soft and smooth like that. When he carried her, he felt that he could not hold it in much longer, and thought of smas.h.i.+ng her into pieces like a porcelain doll. This was probably the wickedness of a man, and it was also probably the feeling of getting his soul enchanted.
Lu Shaoming’s mouth was dry. He furrowed his eyebrows and suppressed the tingling feelings that he wanted to engage in, and he slowly fell asleep.
She was his woman.
He didn’t care anymore; he would sleep below her house for now then.
…
When Lu Shaoming opened his eyes again, the bright suns.h.i.+ne shone through the winds.h.i.+eld onto his face. He lifted his wrist watch to have a glance. It was already 8 in the morning already.
He sat up and looked at the Ning family villa. There was no movement in the villa. This family of 3 probably went to bed too late last night, and they have yet to wake up from their slumber.
He picked up the phone that was in the front pa.s.senger seat and dialed her number.
There was still no one picking up.
Lu Shaoming’s handsome face was a little sunken. She had never thrown a tantrum before, and he did not think that she would be so stubborn when she did have one.
What did she want?
Did she want him to chase after her?
In the past, the people who were pestering him, he knew what they were thinking. After becoming his woman, shouldn’t she be more calm and stay by his side more than before?
He never once liked women who would be arrogant after getting pampered, and he didn’t like those who wanted a mile after having an inch.
Lu Shaoming started the car and stepped on the accelerator, turning the steering wheel to drive towards Guang Qing.
….
On the entire journey, he lightly pursed his thin maroon lips together. He was still wearing the suit from 2 days ago, but it did not reduce his elegance that he had since birth. His unhappy eyebrows made his entire features look even more cold and arrogant than usual. The silver cufflinks at his sleeve were s.h.i.+mmering brightly when they reflected the rays of the sun, and his large hands on the steering wheel were smooth and stern.
As he was driving, he casually spared a look outside the window. A familiar delicate face appeared on the liquid display outside a department store chain.
He wound the windows halfway down, and the girl’s soft and mesmerizing voice rang out in the air — I think that in every girl’s heart, there is a Lu Shaoming living inside. He is gentle, handsome, rich…
Lu Shaoming’s deep eyes painfully contracted, and the sound of an ear piercing brake rang in the air. He stepped on the brakes forcefully.
He lifted his eyes in disbelief to look at the liquid monitor. He did not see it incorrectly. It was Ning Qing. It was probably some awards ceremony. She was dressed in a long gown that was embroidered, and she was dazzling and attractive.
She was saying…Lu Shaoming…
When she dropped those words, she said his name so gently, and her eyes that were focusing on the camera made it seem like she was staring at him. Her attractive, youthful eyes made him melt.
Lu Shaoming opened the car door, and he stood in the centre of the city. He slowly lifted his head to look at the crystal screen.
At this moment, a bunch of journalists rushed over from somewhere and completely surrounded him. “Young Master Lu, you are finally back. We have waited for you so long.”
“Young Master Lu, 4 days ago, new famous director Ning Qing bravely declared her love for you at her own awards ceremony prize presentation, and she has indirectly hinted that you were living inside her heart for a long time. Regarding this piece of news, what do you have to say?”
“Young Master Lu, Director Ning has already turned into a miracle in the industry when she confessed her love in front of the entire city. Can we ask if you would accept her?”….
All Lu Shaoming could hear in his ears were the journalist’s messy questions. The girl was speaking in the video, and when she was presented her award, the big screen behind the presentation counter was showing her dancing as a fairy with flowers during her stage production. She spun in circles as she danced and her skirt flowed beautifully…
She was a talented person.
In the 30 years of Lu Shaoming’s life, before he had met Ning Qing, he always thought that he would calmly be lonely ’til he grew old.
He never hoped that in his life, he would be loved so deeply by a girl, and he also did not ever think that there would be a day where a girl would confess her love for him in front of the entire city.
Now, he was in a daze due to shock.
What was she doing while he was in Finland?
…
Lu Shaoming went back to Guang Qing. When he entered the office, Zhu Rui followed in his footsteps, and Zhu Rui place some doc.u.ments that he had in his hands onto the work desk. “President, this are the Cabbage Plume sales figures. Because of Miss Ning, Cabbage Plume has gotten results that equal total sales volume of an entire season in Europe in merely a week’s time…”
“I got it. You can go now.” These sales figures were what he had predicted.
“Yes, sir.” Zhu Rui walked out.
“Wait a minute. Help me reschedule all my meetings today.” Right now, he did not even want to think about work.
Zhu Rui understood his orders and walked out. Lu Shaoming frowned for a few seconds, then entered into his lounge.
He first went into the shower to clean up, and a few minutes later, he tied a bath towel around his waist as he walked out. He stood before the mirror at the sink, and he looked at his reflection.
The man had a defined and handsome face that resembled an intricate sculpture. From his arched eyebrows to his hair, his eyes that were sparkling like dazzling obsidian, his high bridged nose that resembled the peak of a mountain, and the s.e.xy lines on his thin lips…
He had never looked at himself closely, and when he had a good look now. It did seem like he was a good looking guy.
This was what she called…handsome?
Many women loved him. He had the monetary prowess and power from the Lu Corporation and the Emperor Group. The 30 year old man was steady and mature, and he was a solemn player in the corporate sector. He was like the brightest star in the night sky. He was eminent and unapproachable, elegant, and mysterious.
What did she love about him. Was it his gentleness?
It was a pity that they had only met one another now. He could not be considered to be gentle towards her. That night, he was a little rough and cruel, and her white fingertips were on his shoulder as she screamed in pain, as if she could not take it anymore. Nonetheless, he did not stop, and that resulted in the red marks that she left behind on his body.
