"Her? Forget it! " Lu Yiting sneered from the side. "Mom, Brother, you think too highly of her. I think that Qin Fangang's standards are too high. He won't fall for someone like her. What are you so nervous about? Wasn't that just a show for you to see? It was to make you think that way. "
Although Lu Yiting's unruly words were unpleasant to hear, it was undeniable that Xin Yu really wanted to thank her at this moment.
Li Muhua and Lu Yihan believed her to be infallible, so they didn't make things difficult for her.
She secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing that no one was in the living room and Lu Yihan was drinking water from the water dispenser, she hurriedly went upstairs and prepared to take her things to the hospital.
Unexpectedly, at the corner of the stairs, someone suddenly grabbed her wrist. She felt the world spinning around her. She felt a chill on her back and was pressed against the door.
In a flash, a black figure blocked in front of Xin Yu.
She looked up and saw a handsome face that was both familiar and unfamiliar at the same time. Xin Yu's heart almost jumped out of her mouth. Her first reaction was to turn around to see if there was anyone around.
Although the staircase was empty, there could be someone coming up at any time.
This man, was he crazy?
This was the Lu family. His behavior just now had already put a lot of pressure on her, yet he still dared to be so unscrupulous!
Xin Yu's face was pale. She struggled violently, but when she opened her mouth to speak, her voice was very low. "… You, what are you doing? Let go of me! "
The difference in strength between the man and woman made her struggle futile. Xin Yu was very upset, but she didn't dare to make too much noise. Qin Fangang held her tightly without saying a word. He didn't have any intention of letting her go.
Suddenly, footsteps came from the staircase. Soon, Lu Yiting's voice could be vaguely heard. She was probably on the phone.
"… I can't do it today. It's so annoying. Something happened at home … Let's do it tomorrow."
…
As the footsteps got closer and closer, Xin Yu felt suffocated and her whole body stiffened. Her big dark eyes were filled with horror as she stared at Qin Fangang.
He still had a faint smile on his face, and those long and narrow phoenix eyes contained an unfathomable deep light, but it was so dazzling that it made people dizzy.
Xin Yu bit her lips tightly and didn't dare to speak again. She just struggled silently.
Qin Fangang stretched out his leg and bypassed her body. He kicked open the door behind him. The moment Lu Yiting reached the last step of the stairs, Xin Yu felt that she had been pushed into the room.
There was not the slightest difference.
She had left this villa for five years, so she didn't have a clear impression of the layout of this place. However, if she remembered correctly, this should be … Lu Shiyun's study!
The door behind her was gently closed by Qin Fangang with the tip of his foot.
The curtains in the study weren't drawn. Even though it was noon, the light in the room was still dim. Xin Yu was pressed against the door by Qin Fangang. She raised her head. Although she could only see a blurry outline, it still gave her a strong sense of oppression.
She took a deep breath, pursed her lips, and lowered her voice. "… This is the Lu residence. You …"
"You've been looking at me with such a flirtatious gaze since just now." Qin Fangang's deep voice interrupted Xin Yu's words. His cool fingers reached over, and under the dim light, accurately grasped Xin Yu's chin. He lifted it gently. His gaze had a strange glow in the dark, and it made her heart beat faster. His flirtatious voice was too wicked. "Do you want to experience last night's fiery passion again?"
Xin Yu's heart thumped. She held her breath. "… I'm your brother's wife. Last night was an accident. Can you pretend that nothing happened?"
She paused, then added in a panic, "… I think you know what kind of people the Lu family is. It's useless for you to waste your time on me. Lu Yihan has never taken me seriously. And if they find out about my … relationship with you, it won't do you any good …"
"What relationship do I have with you?" Qin Fangang raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his lips turned up. Unlike the cold and distant aura he had when facing the Lu family, he was now full of devilish energy. "You're talking about a one-night stand?"
Xin Yu panicked when she heard that. She instinctively reached out to cover his mouth.
But the moment her palm touched his thin lips, she felt as though she had been scalded by boiling water. She hurriedly retracted her hand, and her voice was unsteady. "… I-I want to call you Big Brother too. What happened last night was an accident. An accident in England. Now that we've returned to the Lu family, we've forgotten about it. Don't mention it again …"
"Haha." Qin Fangang laughed flirtatiously. Xin Yu couldn't see the expression on his face in the dark, but she could feel his body vibrating with his laughter. She wanted to curl up, if she could.
But she couldn't.
"Was it an accident? Looks like I'm the lucky one. That half-brother of mine doesn't know how to treat a woman well. He hasn't touched you in the five years we've been married, but he gave me your first time. "
"… D-don't talk about it anymore."
"Just because you don't talk about it doesn't mean it didn't happen, right?"
His low voice seemed to carry a hint of persuasion as he pressed his lips against hers. It was so intimate that the air seemed to thin. Xin Yu felt goosebumps all over her body. She felt like an ant standing on the lid of a boiling pot …
Qin Fangang, what was he trying to do?
Could it be that he wanted to use her to attack Lu Yihan? But if he really did that, it wouldn't do him much good, would it? No one would be able to accept such a scandal …
"Are you trembling?" Qin Fangang suddenly pressed his hands on her shoulders. His thin lips inched closer to her face until they were almost touching her burning left cheek. He said slowly, "Don't be afraid. What I told you before is still valid. It was just a one-night stand. It happened in England, and it ended in England."
… Just a one-night stand?
Was he implying that he wouldn't make a big fuss about that matter?
Xin Yu was really flustered. She had been treading on thin ice in the Lu family all these years, and it hadn't been easy. She wasn't weak, but she knew very well what her purpose in marrying into the Lu family was. It was good that she no longer had any feelings for Lu Yihan …
She couldn't get a divorce.
She pursed her lips. "… Do you mean that you'll keep it a secret?"
"I'm not interested in talking about this kind of thing." Qin Fangang's slender fingers flicked her shoulder gently. "I pulled you in because I wanted to tell you that from now on, we'll be living under the same roof. Remember to relax when you see me. Don't wear a face that says that we have a special relationship, okay? "
"… I don't."
"Are you sure?"
"Since you've said so, I'll also inform you that because of your reckless behavior just now, I was questioned by Lu Yihan. I can only tell her that I've seen you once when I was in the UK, but I don't have a deep impression of you. If she asks you later, I hope you can match up with what I said."
Qin Fangang had already reached out to open the door to the study when he heard this. Xin Yu instinctively stood to the side. The bright light from outside shone in. She looked up and saw that the man was already standing at the door.
Half of his body was still hidden in the darkness, but the other half had already stepped out of the study.
It was faintly discernible between black and white, enveloping him in a layer of mysterious yet untouchable aura.
This time, she clearly saw the curve of his sexy thin lips as he said, "You don't have a deep impression of me? Ha, I thought you had a deep impression of me. "
By the time Xin Yu went downstairs, she had already calmed down.
Qin Fangang was the first to leave the study. She made sure that there was no one in the corridor and quickly left after him. Finally, she went to the bedroom to grab her belongings, preparing to escape this troublesome place and make a trip to the hospital.
It happened to be lunchtime. When she went downstairs, she saw that the helpers were busy serving the dishes in the dining room.
Lu Shiyun and Qin Fangang were sitting in the living room. Li Muhua and Lu Yiting were probably in the room upstairs. As for Lu Yihan, he wasn't around.
When Xin Yu went downstairs, she saw that in the garden, Lu Yihan had one hand in his trouser pocket and the other holding a cigarette. His cell phone was wedged between his shoulder and face. He narrowed his eyes as he smoked and spoke on the phone.
"Xin Yu, are you going out now?"
When Lu Shiyun saw that Xin Yu had come downstairs, he put down the teacup in his hand and stood up.
Xin Yu instinctively glanced at the man who was leaning deeply on the sofa. He sat there with a calm aura, his long legs elegantly crossed. There was a purple clay teapot on the coffee table opposite him, and he was holding a small teacup in his hand. He was sipping his tea lightly.
From this angle, she could only see the side of Qin Fangang's face, but he gave her a calm aura. He was completely different from the man who had pulled her into the study earlier.
At this moment, he exuded wisdom, depth, and of course, a calmness that made one's heart flutter.
"Are you preparing to go to the hospital?" Lu Shiyun went forward and glanced at Lu Yihan, who was still on the phone in the courtyard. "It's almost time for dinner. Eat before you go. I'll ask Yihan to send you there."
Eat?
There was a table full of people sitting together, and of course … Qin Fangang.
How could she eat?
Xin Yu's mind turned and she immediately said, "Dad, I just received a call from the hospital's doctor. He said that there are some changes in my dad's condition. When I was in England, he kept urging me to come back first, so I won't eat."
"In that case …" Lu Shiyun pondered for a moment and finally nodded. "Then you go to the hospital first. I'll ask Yihan to —"
Xin Yu quickly waved her hand and interrupted him. "Dad, there's no need to go through so much trouble. I can go there myself. Yihan just came back. Don't let him rush back and forth."
"How can that be? Yihan should go with you. " Lu Shiyun insisted. "You've been away from D City for five years. It's not easy for you to come back. It's your first time visiting your dad. It's not good to let you go alone."
As he spoke, he called out Lu Yihan's name.
The man in the courtyard had probably just finished his phone call. When he turned around, he saw the two people standing in the living room. Lu Yihan frowned, flicked the cigarette in his hand, and walked in.
