Leng Nuan looked as if she had just been given a huge fright. She struggled even more furiously than before, and even her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
As Lu Benlai's face inched closer and closer, her body trembled even more violently. She tried her best to restrain herself from speaking, but very, very pleading words escaped from her lips, "Let me go … Please let me go … Let me go …"
Lu Benlai's actions halted for a moment, as if he was about to stop. But in just two short seconds, he seemed to have made up his mind about something, and he lowered his head once more.
His lips inched closer and closer to hers, and she could even feel his breath.
In that instant, the man before her didn't feel like the Lu Benlai she knew. Instead, he felt like a man-eating beast in the darkness of the night …
Leng Nuan was so scared that tears began trickling down the corners of her eyes. The panicked words that came out of her mouth began to change, and eventually, they turned into a shriek.
It was true that he liked her, and he couldn't bear to part with her … Even though he had made up his mind, he still couldn't bring himself to do it. Just when he was just a centimeter away from her lips, Lu Benlai suddenly stopped.
He opened his eyes, only to see her tear-stained face, as well as the look of rejection, disgust, hatred, and fear on her face.
Rejection, disgust, hatred … Lu Benlai stared at her for a moment, but all of a sudden, all of his strength seemed to have left him. His grip on her wrist abruptly disappeared.
She easily broke free from him, as if he was a dreadful beast. She took a few steps back, widening the distance between the two of them. Only then did she stop.
She didn't even look at him. Instead, she hugged her arms and leaned against the wall, trembling uncontrollably.
Seeing her in such a state made his heart ache.
Lu Benlai subconsciously averted his gaze.
He could clearly hear her sobbing. He wanted to comfort her, but he knew that if he were to stand up now, she would only become even more flustered and afraid.
He stared out the window for a moment before pretending to be unconscious from his drunkenness. Then, he slumped onto the table and fell asleep.
After a long time, the sound of sobbing finally disappeared. He heard her footsteps, which were very light and timid. She seemed to look at him for a while to make sure he was really asleep. Then she walked out of the private room and came back with the waiter to send him to the car.
Throughout the entire process, not to mention showing concern for him, she didn't even get close to him.
When she arrived at his place, she had already called his assistant in advance.
Just like when they came out of the bar, she still didn't approach him. She just ordered her assistant to send him upstairs.
After he lay down on the bed, she handed a cup of soup to the assistant and said that she still had things to do. She asked the assistant to take care of him and left in a hurry.
He didn't open his eyes until the sound of the door closing came from the living room.
When the assistant saw him, he immediately held up the hangover soup and said, "Boss Lu, this is the soup that Sister Leng just cooked for you. Have some …"
Lu Benlai glanced at the bowl of hangover soup in his assistant's hands, but he didn't take it. Instead, he glanced at the clock on the wall and saw that it was already one in the morning. Thus, he turned to his assistant and said, "It's getting late, you should head back to rest …"
"But Sister Leng said that I should stay here to take care of myself …"
Before the assistant could finish his words, Lu Benlai had already interjected, "I'm fine. Just leave when she asks you to …"
