aren't we in love

Chapter 34 You Owe Me
After Lu Yingqin left, Cheng Duanwu finally exhausted his last bit of strength and slumped on the ground.Because Lu Yingqin wanted to talk to her, there was no one in the room, and everyone left in a sensible manner.It is precisely because of this that this room is as cold as a cage, a cage that Cheng Duanwu can never leave.

She thought that she was used to such bone-destroying loneliness, but when all her frailties were exposed, she realized that she was missing Cheng Tianda, Cheng Luoming, and even Yu Dong like crazy.

All these years, her so-called strength is just her step by step under their care and support, but now, she has lost everything, and she has to live on, because there is no one else in this world except her able to support her child.

Just when she was almost desperate, a person suddenly appeared in her mind.

Will he help her?
Cheng Duanwu didn't have any confidence in his heart.In fact, until the last step, she didn't want to plan for the worst. After all, this is a choice of death...

Lu Yingqin didn't go to Cheng Duanwu's place for several days.He had completely calmed down and had been reflecting on their relationship for days.I don't know why, Cheng Duanwu is like a fire to him, every time it can lead him into a prairie fire, and in the end both sides will suffer.

Sometimes Lu Yingqin would feel annoyed, perhaps, letting her go would be the best redemption for the two of them. Forcibly binding them together like this is just a prison, and no one will be happy.But when he thought about it again, it seemed that he couldn't stand Cheng Duanwu marrying someone else.Regarding Cheng Duanwu, Lu Yingqin was so contradictory that he couldn't explain it.

She is not gentle, and treats him like an enemy. Her tolerance for others has always been bottomless, but she is not for him.Sometimes when he was tired, he wanted to get a little comfort from her, but what she gave him was always the resoluteness of rejecting others thousands of miles away.She always loves to annoy him, but she knows the consequences but she still wants to do it. It seems that only when the swords are drawn between them is she happy.

love?The subject seemed utterly ridiculous among them.Lu Yingqin didn't even want to think about it.

In the evening, Yu Jiajia called again. Lu Yingqin felt a little groggy after the dinner party, but he still managed to stay awake.

"Drink too much?" Yu Jiajia's voice came from the other side of the ocean through radio waves. For some reason, Lu Yingqin felt a little bit of warmth. Maybe it was because he had eaten too much at Cheng Duanwu's place for so long. .Yu Jiajia is a smart woman, she will always know where Lu Yingqin is against her, all these years, she has been by his side, everything is doing very well, in the past he obviously liked such a smart woman, didn't he?But why now, he hates it?

Before he could answer, Yu Jiajia on the other end of the phone had already changed the subject, and her voice returned to alienation and indifference, "Forget it, your business has nothing to do with me, I just want to tell you, I'm going back to China, please pick me up at the airport .”

The tone was almost commanding, which made Lu Yingqin frown.The little bit of regret and guilt in my heart just now disappeared in an instant.

"Why?" Lu Yingqin's head sank, but he couldn't help but sneered.

"There are reporters at the airport. I need some news, just a few shots of you."

Lu Yingqin sneered: "Jiajia, you should know that I hate women who pretend to be smart the most."

Yu Jiajia, however, had been prepared for a long time, she didn't lose her footing at all, and said in an orderly manner: "I have to live without you. I signed a contract with a domestic brokerage company, and the company has promised to support me. I need your help." While on the phone, Lu Yingqin couldn't see Yu Jiajia's expression, only heard Yu Jiajia was silent for a while, and finally said coldly and decisively: "Lu Yingqin, you owe me this."

Yu Jiajia returned to China two days later, and Lu Yingqin was there on time to pick her up. Yu Jiajia had changed a lot. She was dressed in low-key casual clothes, with loose long hair, and black super sunglasses almost covered her palm-sized face.Even though she was wearing sunglasses, she was still wearing delicate makeup, even the corners of her lips were crystal clear.

The action of the reporter who has been waiting at the airport for a long time is not too subtle, but she is unaware, intentionally or unintentionally letting the camera capture her most beautiful appearance.

She didn't get too close to Lu Yingqin, nor did she hold Lu Yingqin's arm, but occasionally talked to Lu Yingqin, showing a natural and beautiful smile.Such an illusion made Lu Yingqin feel stunned.Once upon a time, the woman beside him who was attached to his existence turned into this appearance.

After getting into the car, Yu Jiajia closed the window.Only then did he restrain his smile just now, and his expression was cold.

They didn't talk any more along the way, but when they were about to reach the destination, Yu Jiajia suddenly attached her hand to Lu Yingqin's. Her hands were greasy and clean, her nails were neatly trimmed and painted with lacquer red nail polish.

Her smiling face was very polite, "Lu Yingqin, thank you for your cooperation."

Lu Yingqin's expression remained calm, he just silently withdrew his hand, "Remember, there will be no next time."

Yu Jiajia was still smiling, but her tone was full of complaints: "You are so cruel!" But there was no complaint at all, as if it was just a complaint from a little woman's posture.

Lu Yingqin stared at her silently, hoping to see everything from her smiling face, but he couldn't see anything, "Yu Jiajia, what exactly do you want?"

Yu Jiajia chuckled and asked back, "Guess."

After Yu Jiajia got out of the car, Lu Yingqin's car left without stopping. She stood there and watched Lu Yingqin's car leave her sight quietly.

He asked her: Yu Jiajia, what exactly do you want?

Yu Jiajia sneered, in the past, she wanted his heart; now, she only wants his pain.

He always said that he hates smart women, but unfortunately she is not stupid.She had lent Yu Dong the address and phone number of that person to Cheng Duanwu, and now she didn't have to do anything, just wait for them to die together.

Yu Jiajia faced the wind, and she swallowed the moisture in her eyes and the soreness in her throat.There was a void in her heart, Lu Yingqin, if this man's heart had even a little bit of flesh and blood, she, Yu Jiajia, wouldn't have come to this day.

You know, how much love there is, how much hate there will be.

The power of public opinion is terrifying. In just a dozen hours, print media and the Internet have overwhelmingly disclosed this news.The intimate photos of Lu Yingqin and Yu Jiajia were on the paper. Although Lu Yingqin's face was mosaiced, Cheng Duanwu still recognized it at a glance.The invisible rich man, who is rarely mentioned in the financial section, was published in the entertainment section because of a woman.This doesn't fit Lu Yingqin's character at all.

You know, for so many years, he has been extremely cautious.Never get involved in the love stories of the rich and famous.If you are not a true lover, how can you sacrifice your reputation to pave the way for her?
A round of successful hype made Yu Jiajia a hot topic all of a sudden, and the model who only participated in a few big-name foreign events became famous overnight.With a curious background, glamorous appearance, and good "acting skills", Cheng Duanwu looked at the newspaper with a sneer, and it was foreseeable that a new star had already risen.

And she, Cheng Duanwu, seemed to be hit by a meteorite falling from the sky, and the uneven crater in her heart could no longer be filled.

Lu Yingqin looked calm when he saw the news.It's just that Guan Yi is a little worried. Lu Yingqin has always been a low-key person, and being hyped up by the media this time will do them no good.But Lu Yingqin didn't seem to feel anything at all, and just asked him: "Have the newspapers been delivered to Cheng Duanwu?"

Guan Yi was taken aback for a moment: "It's delivered."

"What was her reaction?"

"It's very calm, after reading it, put it on the table."

"Yeah." Lu Yingqin didn't show any expression, "Go out."

In the evening, Lu Yingqin asked the driver to take him back to the villa.Cheng Duanwu, however, seemed to have been waiting there long ago, sitting comfortably on the sofa and watching TV. His calm eyes reminded him of Cheng Duanwu seven years ago, aloof and supercilious.

"Are you back?" Cheng Duanwu's expression was very relaxed, he didn't look at him, but he took the initiative to talk to him, and Lu Yingqin felt a little sinister in his calmness.

"Why are you still here?"

"Wait for you." Cheng Duanwu giggled, then turned off the TV, put down the remote control, and walked towards Lu Yingqin step by step, like a noble white swan, with its head raised high, its elegant and slender neck.

She picked up the newspaper that was placed on the antique table not far away, and then unfolded it page by page, and finally walked to Lu Yingqin, "This reporter took really good pictures, and the golden boy and the jade girl are very suitable." She smiled: "Lu Yingqin, Excuse me, if you do this, where are you going to put me?"

"It's just general news." Lu Yingqin frowned tightly and didn't look at her.

Cheng Duanwu didn't back down, "Is this called ordinary news? Lu Yingqin, why are you so understated when you say such a big thing?"

Cheng Duanwu's eyes were like a poisonous needle, and Lu Yingqin felt the pain from the sting. His expression was stern: "What right do you have to question me? Huh?"

"Yes." Cheng Duanwu was completely disappointed with the man in front of him.The last bit of affection for him was completely wiped out along with all this, "You bought me with money, and I should be grateful if you would look at me." She smiled coldly, as if mocking herself, as if It's sarcasm.

Lu Yingqin felt that her expression was very strange, she was clearly smiling, but behind the smile was bloodthirsty hatred, and lifeless, despair.He didn't know why he felt bored and irritable, so he snatched the newspaper from Cheng Duanwu's hand.The newsprint, which was not too strong, was torn to pieces by him one by one.

"Hiss———" The sound of the newspaper being torn apart was like a poisonous snake sticking out its tongue at Cheng Duanwu. Cheng Duanwu felt that this scene was sad and ridiculous.

"Cheng Duanwu, let me tell you, no matter what you think, be honest with me. Some things are not your turn to question, this is between me and her." Lu Yingqin didn't know how to react.She will question, which means that she is at least not indifferent, but behind her questioning at this moment, Lu Yingqin has a faint feeling of unease.

For the first time in so long, he felt that he was about to lose her.

Cheng Duanwu's smile is very strange, her eyes seem to be hurt, but they are also sunk to the lowest point, leaving only a faint blackness, her voice is as cold as iron, and she pauses every word, "Yes, this is between you and her , then I shouldn’t be involved. Lu Yingqin, please let me go.”

Lu Yingqin instinctively reprimanded her: "Dream!"

"Snapped--"

A crisp slap ignited Lu Yingqin's anger to the highest point.He looked at Cheng Duan's expressionless face almost in disbelief. She was so calm, but she was the one who raised her hand and slapped him hard just now.

Lu Yingqin was furious. He pulled Cheng Duanwu's wrist fiercely, "Are you addicted? Do you dare to do it at any time? Who borrowed your courage? Are you crazy, Cheng Duanwu?"

"Yes." Cheng Duanwu's expression was full of sadness, with a self-deprecating smile on his face, as if he was confused, "I'm just addicted, I was tortured into a lunatic by you, I'm just crazy!"

"Okay." Lu Yingqin laughed back angrily, and kept nodding, "Okay, Cheng Duanwu, are you crazy? I'll make you crazy to the end."

He pushed Cheng Duanwu violently, Cheng Duanwu couldn't stand up, staggered and was about to fall to the ground, but Lu Yingqin saved her by the waist and hugged her back.

Everything was as fast as lightning, and before Cheng Duanwu could react, Lu Yingqin had already thrown him onto the big bed in the guest room.

He didn't even close the door, he leaned over like a devil, Cheng Duanwu understood what Lu Yingqin was going to do in an instant.Immediately resisted violently, almost screaming: "Lu Yingqin! Get out of here! Get out! Don't touch me!"

At that moment, all of Lu Yingqin's rationality was controlled by anger, he sneered and roared: "Call me, call everyone over here, and see how crazy Cheng Duanwu is now!"

Cheng Duanwu's eyes were bloodshot with anxiety, but he had no power to resist.The door was not closed, she was afraid, afraid of waking up the sleeping child, she didn't want to be seen in such a dirty situation.

She struggled hard and beat Lu Yingqin's back with all her strength, but Lu Yingqin didn't care. He bit Cheng Duanwu's exposed collarbone with such force that he almost saw blood.Cheng Duanwu tried his best to resist, but it was useless.She was no match for his strength, he was so densely pressed on her that she could hardly move.

He tore off the shackles on her body, doing the most intimate thing between a man and a woman.

Cheng Duanwu was so painful that she almost fainted. She bit her lip and stared at Lu Yingqin with the most vicious eyes.Just now he was desperately resisting the scream, but at this moment he suddenly became quiet.She refused to use her voice to create any more pleasure for Lu Yingqin.

"Disgusting." Cheng Duanwu looked at Lu Yingqin coldly, said the last sentence, then turned his head away, never looking at him again.

She didn't make a sound, but her brows were tightly furrowed.Lu Yingqin knew that she was in pain, and in fact he was in pain too, but this kind of pain seemed to be addictive. Lu Yingqin felt that he was about to lose control. In the sudden passion, Lu Yingqin suddenly remembered the 17-year-old Cheng Duanwu. He bit his lip like this, and made no sound at all.

He knew that she hated him so much that her expression almost tore him apart, but even so, he still wanted to keep her.

After so long of temptation and torture, he only recognized one fact.No matter what the reason is, he cannot lose her.

When Cheng Duanwu woke up again, the torture like falling into hell finally stopped.Her whole body seemed to be falling apart, and she had almost no strength at all.His hair was sticky to his face, and his whole body was dripping with sweat.

Lu Yingqin didn't know when he left, but there was a smell of him in the room, so deep that she couldn't ignore it.

She stared blankly at the ceiling, tears fell drop by drop on the side of the pillow, blending into broken flowers.She didn't move for a moment, she still maintained the humiliated appearance just now, curled up in the quilt.Ever since he was a child, Lu Yingqin has always been able to humiliate her, until she has no self-esteem at all.But she couldn't do anything except shed tears.

She doesn't want to quarrel with him, let alone provoke him.But she just couldn't help it, she thought she could stay by his side for the sake of winter.But she can't do it.The closer you are to him, the more you want.She has crossed that safe line.

Some people, she really can't get too close to him, such as Lu Yingqin.She understands this truth and has used it for so many years.

The next day, everything was as usual, Cheng Duanwu endured the pain in his body, and went out with the child in his arms.The driver was not a familiar face, but Cheng Duanwu was not surprised at all.

"Did Yu Jiajia want you to come?"

The driver did not speak, which was the default.

When the news came out the day before, Yu Jiajia didn't know where she got her number.On the phone, she just said straight to the point: "Only I can help you."

Such determination, but Cheng Duanwu didn't respond.After Lu Yingqin's devastating aggression, Cheng Duanwu dialed that number.

"Help me." These two words informed her decision.

The driver dropped her off at that address.A high-defense area with high gates and single buildings.Before Cheng Duanwu entered, she hugged Dong Dong, who was still in her dream, and she kissed Dong Dong's soft cheeks affectionately. He had grown taller again, but he still looked childish. Cheng Duanwu: "Mom, where is this? Aren't you going to school today?"

Cheng Duanwu endured tears, endured all the pain, and gently kissed the child's cheek: "Winter, listen, now I will take you to see the grandpa. From now on, no matter what happens, you must listen to the grandpa .”

Dong Dong had a half-understanding expression on his face, "Do I have a great-grandfather? Why have I never seen it before?"

"Hey, don't ask anything now, just promise mom, no matter what happens in the future, you must listen to grandpa!" Cheng Duanwu said at the end, his voice began to choke.

Winter was in a hurry, and hurriedly held Cheng Duanwu's hand, "Mom, don't cry, I promise you!"

Cheng Duanwu took a deep breath, looked at Dongdong's childish face with great nostalgia, and said farewell: "Good boy, you have to remember, if one day, mother leaves you, it's not that mother doesn't love you anymore, but that mother too tired."
