Chapter 841: He Makes Her Crazy
The sun was very bright but the curtains in the apartment were drawn. It was dark and depressing. The light from the corridor that managed to s.h.i.+ne through was just enough for one to make out the outlines in the apartment.
Gu Mang was sitting on the sofa. Her legs were on the sofa as she curled up and hugged her knees.
She looked exceptionally vulnerable.
Usually, she sat in an arrogant posture and looked rowdy.
Lu Chengzhou could not see Gu Mang’s expression clearly. He wondered if she was feeling guilty or self-critical, and if she felt that she had burdened Granny.
But her posture alone made him feel for her.
He swallowed and shut the door. Then, he turned on the small wall lamp in the hallway. It was as if he was afraid that if the light were too bright, it would hurt her eyes.
Lu Chengzhou walked towards her.
Gu Mang watched as he sat down beside her.
Lu Chengzhou looked at Gu Mang’s face clearly.
Her exquisite eyes did not look like they did before. They were now blank and empty.
Lu Chengzhou did not ask her anything. He just looked her over to ensure that she was not injured. Then, he pressed his hand lightly on her tummy.
“Have you not eaten since yesterday?” he asked in a low voice that was a little hoa.r.s.e.
Gu Mang looked at him without blinking. Her fingers just curled slightly.
Lu Chengzhou held her cold hands and said warmly, “There isn’t anything to eat here. Let’s return to Royal Garden. We’ll make you something to eat.”
Gu Mang did not budge.
Lu Chengzhou touched her face which was cold as well. He said softly, “If it weren’t for you, Granny wouldn’t have pa.s.sed away long ago. Whatever happened this time has nothing to do with you, so stop thinking about it, alright?”
Gu Mang still remained silent. She just stared at him.
Lu Chengzhou continued, “I’ve sent people to look after Meng Jinyang, your teacher, your master, and your Third Uncle’s family. Don’t worry, I’m here.”
Gu Mang’s eyes finally moved. Her voice was raspy. “Lu Chengzhou…”
Even in this dire moment for the Lu family, he was still looking after her.
Lu Chengzhou pulled her into his arms and pressed his arm on the back of her head. He said in a low voice, “Let’s return to Royal Garden for a meal. After you have eaten, take a rest. Let me handle everything.”
Gu Mang buried herself in his shoulders.
Lu Chengzhou felt something soaking through his s.h.i.+rt, reaching his skin. It was wet and cold.
He frowned and looked down.
Gu Mang suddenly raised her head and rushed forward, She hooked onto his neck and kissed him while trembling. Then, she sucked his lips forcefully as if she wished to swallow him.
There was a cold scent on him that she was familiar with. The smell of cigarettes was a little weaker than before and she could barely smell it.
But it made her go crazy.
Gu Mang pushed open his lips and teeth and kissed him without a care for anything else.
She touched his waist and pulled out the hem of his s.h.i.+rt, sneaking her hand underneath.
The corners of Lu Chengzhou’s eyes were red, and the restlessness and anxiety he had been suppressing completely broke out.
It was difficult to see in the apartment, but it was getting warmer and warmer. Darkness and rising temperatures made people indulge in each other.
On the sofa, they were in a world that only belonged to them.
They pushed and tugged at each other. They touched each other crazily. Things got intense.
Their relations.h.i.+p was intimate and deep.
Guise of gentleness was torn off, revealing his true self.
He wanted to dominate every part of her. Every action that he made was extremely possessive.
…
Afterwards, Lu Chengzhou carried her out after a shower and put her on the bed. He softened his voice, saying, “I’ll tell Lu Yi to send us dinner.”
“I’m thirsty,” Gu Mang said. “I’ll call him.”
Lu Chengzhou nodded and poured her a gla.s.s of water.
“Sure.” He handed her the phone and touched her hair. It was still half dry. Then, he got up and walked out of the bedroom.
When Gu Mang saw him leave, she looked away and picked up her phone. She sent Lu Jiu a text.
“Send Gu Si to the capital airport.”
She got a reply very quickly. There was no reason to suspect the sender’s ident.i.ty.
“Understood.”
Gu Mang deleted the chat record and put the phone down.
