I, the wanderer of the universe, love making friends

Chapter 426 Wang Xueqin, are you going to save face?
When Shen Lang heard Lu Zhenhua's enthusiastic request to stay, he was instantly delighted.

But he always had a smile on his face that was as warm as the sun and as gentle as the spring breeze, and he said sincerely: "Brother Lu is so kind and generous. If I refuse again, it would be too tactless and seem distant."

He knew clearly in his heart that having a secret affair at home and secretly having an affair at Lu's house were two completely different experiences in terms of atmosphere and excitement. The feeling was indescribable to outsiders.

When Lu Zhenhua saw Shen Lang agreed, the smile on his face instantly became even more intense.

He immediately turned around and shouted to his servants, "Go quickly and tidy up the guest room. Use the best bedding. Don't neglect our distinguished guests!"

The servant took the order and hurried away, his steps somewhat anxious.

When Wang Xueqin heard that Shen Lang wanted to stay overnight, she couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

Her eyes seemed to be attracted by a magnet and unconsciously drifted towards Shen Lang. Her eyes were full of expectation and passion, as if they contained a blazing flame that could set the whole field on fire.

Her heart was like a happy and unrestrained little deer, running rampant in her chest, making her feel uneasy.

At the same time, her mind was full of fantasies, and she kept imagining all kinds of beautiful scenes that might happen when she was alone with Shen Lang. Every scene made her blush and her heart beat faster.

However, at this moment of joy, a trace of uneasiness quietly crept into her heart like a dark cloud.

She knew very well that this shady relationship, if exposed, would cause a huge storm in the Lu family and completely destroy everything she had worked so hard to build.

But at this moment, her passionate and almost crazy feelings for Shen Lang still made her have a glimmer of hope. She naively thought that as long as she acted carefully and treaded on thin ice, she might be able to hide the truth and enjoy this forbidden love.

Lu Mengping also had similar thoughts as her.

Although Lu Mengping tried her best to suppress the excitement in her heart that was like a volcanic eruption, her slightly red cheeks were like ripe apples, and her slightly trembling hands were like leaves drifting in the autumn wind. These details still exposed her emotions without reservation.

She secretly looked at Shen Lang, her eyes filled with the pure admiration unique to a girl. Her gaze was like a clear lake that could not hide any secrets.

I thought to myself: Being able to live under the same roof with Shen Lang tonight is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that I can't wait to have.

But how can I cleverly create an opportunity to be alone with Shen Lang?

This question was like a tangled mess, tangling around in her mind and making her rack her brains.

She thought for a moment, should she pretend to be awakened by a nightmare at night, extremely scared, and knock on Shen Lang's door to seek comfort?

But then I became worried that such an excuse was too far-fetched and would arouse suspicion if others noticed it.

She thought again, why not take advantage of the early morning when everyone is still asleep and use the excuse of going for a walk in the garden to try her luck and create a romantic encounter?

But then he became worried. What if Shen Lang got up late? Wouldn't all his efforts be in vain and his hopes dashed?

Every thought that flashed through her mind was ruthlessly rejected by the worries deep in her heart.

She was as nervous as a taut guitar string and as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. She just hoped for a perfect opportunity so that she could be alone with Shen Lang.

Even if it was just for a brief moment, it allowed her to feel Shen Lang's unique aura up close and confide her innermost thoughts.

After the servants had cleaned the guest room, Lu Zhenhua personally escorted Shen Lang to the door of the room and then said goodbye and left.

In the dead of night, everything is silent.

Shen Lang quietly used his means to ensure that everyone in the Lu family, except Wang Xueqin and Lu Mengping, fell into a deep sleep, sleeping like dead pigs. Even if gongs and drums were banged or firecrackers were set off next to their ears, it would be impossible to wake them up.

It’s late at night and the silence is a bit unsettling.

Wang Xueqin lay in bed, tossing and turning, like a fish in a frying pan, unable to fall asleep.

She longed to find Shen Lang to confide in him and pour out all her love for him.

But she was afraid of being noticed by Lu Zhenhua who was snoring loudly beside her, or being discovered by Erhao, Ruping and others.

He was extremely anxious, just like a cat that wanted to steal some fish but was timid and cowardly, afraid of being caught by its owner.

On the one hand, her longing for Shen Lang was like a surging tide, one wave after another.

Every minute and every second seemed like torture. She wished she could grow wings immediately and fly to Shen Lang, hug him tightly, pour out her heart, and express her passionate love for him.

On the other hand, reason was like an ice-cold sword, constantly slashing through her heart, reminding her that if this behavior was discovered, the position she had painstakingly built up over the years in the Lu family would instantly collapse.

She will become the object of everyone's scorn and lose all her existing wealth, dignity and respect.

The fierce confrontation between emotion and reason, like a cruel war, continued to unfold in her heart, making her feel extremely painful and entangled, as if she was on the edge of hell and heaven, unable to advance or retreat.

Listening to Lu Zhenhua's deafening snoring, Wang Xueqin felt inexplicably irritated, and a nameless fire arose in her heart. She wanted to grab an object and cover Lu Zhenhua's mouth with it.

In her heart, she secretly blamed Lu Zhenhua for sleeping so soundly and unconsciously, but she was also secretly glad that his thunderous snoring might be able to cover up some of her subtle movements.

But at the same time, she was worried that the snoring would be too loud and attract other people's attention. She was really torn and in great pain. At this moment, a voice as subtle as the buzz of a mosquito quietly entered her ears: "Xueqin, why haven't you come to see me yet?"

Although the voice was extremely soft, every word was like a heavy hammer, clearly reaching Wang Xueqin's ears.

If it’s not Shen Lang, who else could it be?
Wang Xueqin was startled and thought to herself, "Oh, this is terrible! Why is he talking right next to my ear? If Lu Zhenhua hears this, or if anyone else hears it, it will be all over!"

She became more and more panicked, her heart beating wildly as if it was about to burst through her chest. She could even clearly hear her own pounding heartbeat, which sounded like a rapid war drum. She was afraid of being discovered by Lu Zhenhua or others.

A moment later, Shen Lang's voice sounded again, "Don't worry, no one else will hear it except you. And I dare to assert that Lu Zhenhua is sleeping soundly now. Even if you knock on his ear, he won't wake up."

Wang Xueqin finally felt relieved, breathed a sigh of relief, and her tense nerves relaxed a little.

I pondered in my heart: "I don't know what kind of magical power this man has used, it's like he's whispering in my ear. Could he really have some supernatural ability? I'll test it out and see if the master is really sleeping so deeply. If he's not really asleep, I can't take this risk. If he really is dead asleep, then I..."

Her heart was wavering between desire and fear, and she was hesitant. She wanted to seize this rare opportunity to reunite with Shen Lang, but she was also afraid that taking this step would bring about irreversible and terrible consequences.

But in the end, she gritted her teeth, made up her mind, and decided to go for it.

Because Wei Guangxiong has been coming to her frequently and pestering her recently.

Although she has a son with Wei Guangxiong, in Wang Xueqin's heart, how can Wei Guangxiong be compared with Shen Lang?
Shen Lang's elegance, handsomeness and gentleness are all what Wei Guangxiong lacks.

Why doesn't she take this opportunity to get rid of Wei Guangxiong completely, and it would be best if she could get rid of him without anyone knowing.

Since Shen Lang can use such magical methods, he will surely be able to help me fulfill this wish.

Thinking of this, she gently pushed Lu Zhenhua and whispered, "Master, Master..."

However, Lu Zhenhua beside him just continued snoring without any other reaction.

Seeing that he was really sleeping like a dead pig, Wang Xueqin gritted her teeth, put on her clothes and got out of bed.

She moved cautiously, like a thief. As she tiptoed to the door, she subconsciously looked back at Lu Zhenhua lying on the bed.

Seeing that he was still sleeping soundly and unaware, she gritted her teeth, slowly opened the door, and walked out slowly like a frightened little mouse.

Wang Xueqin had just left the room, and Shen Lang was about to send a message to Lu Mengping.

Suddenly, I heard a slight sound coming from outside the door. Although the sound was small, it was clearly audible in the quiet night.

Could it be Wang Xueqin coming?

But why didn't you knock on the door?

Full of doubts, he got out of bed and gently opened the door, only to see Lu Mengping standing in front of the door.

"Don't talk..." Lu Mengping made a silencing gesture to him, her voice as soft as a mosquito's buzzing: "Let's go in quickly, don't let anyone else find out, especially don't let my mother know..."

As expected, Lu Mengping was more proactive.

At least, she doesn't need to be as hesitant and worried as Wang Xueqin.

Seeing this, Shen Lang immediately picked her up horizontally, his movements gentle and quick, and closed the door.

He carried Lu Mengping to the bedside and was about to undress her when there was another slight knock on the door.

Lu Mengping's face suddenly changed. She was so frightened that she turned pale. Like a frightened little rabbit, she crawled into the bed and said in a trembling voice, "Go and see if my dad is here."

Shen Lang walked to the door calmly. As soon as he opened it, Wang Xueqin walked in quietly.

After she entered, she closed the door and whispered, "I came here secretly. Don't tell Meng Ping tomorrow..."

After entering the room, she immediately noticed the bulging quilt with the help of the light in the room.

Then I knew there must be another person under the quilt.

He walked quickly forward and lifted the quilt.

In an instant, Lu Mengping was seen like a frightened bird.

When she saw that it was Wang Xueqin, Lu Mengping was no longer nervous, but she still felt a little uncomfortable.

"Lu Mengping..." Wang Xueqin's eyes widened. "Why are you here in the middle of the night? Do you still have any shame?"

Lu Mengping fought back mercilessly, "Wang Xueqin, you want to be ashamed to come here without telling my dad? When you were fighting with me in the grove, you wanted to be ashamed..."
