Beijing Marriage Entanglement

Wu Xiaotang initially felt a little guilty about this.

But when her daughter questioned her like that, she became angry and embarrassed.

"What are you talking about? You are my child, your life belongs to me. What's wrong with me using a little of your money?"

If it weren't for me, you wouldn't even be here.

If I hadn't insisted, you wouldn't have been able to go to university and would have been working in a factory long ago.

I deserve half the credit for your good life now.

"You're arguing with me about these things now, Lu Xingci, doesn't your conscience hurt?!"

When she graduated from junior high school, Lu Zhenyu wanted to send her to work in Guangdong Province.

It was thanks to Wu Xiaotang and the school teachers' persistence that Lu Xingci was able to continue attending high school.

Later, she was admitted to Tsinghua and Peking Universities with excellent grades in high school, but Lu Zhenyu wouldn't let her go.

Lu Zhenyu said that it's useless for girls to study; they should start working early to earn money and help support their families.

Despite the risk of being beaten, Wu Xiaotang secretly helped her board the train to Beijing.

Lu Xingci was grateful for this.

But that doesn't mean she'll be exploited forever; it's all for the sake of supporting her good-for-nothing son.

From childhood to adulthood, because of her gender, she has been far too tolerant and forgiving.

This time, she wasn't going to give in.

Lu Xingci suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and said coldly.

"You don't have to pay me back that money, but let's not have anything to do with each other anymore."

Consider that money as repayment for your kindness in raising me.

After saying that, Lu Xingci hung up the phone without waiting for Wu Xiaotang to say anything.

She had tried countless times to pull her mother out of the abyss and to make her understand that a woman does not have to rely on a man to live in this world.

But each time, her mother tried to lead her into the abyss.

If it weren't for her persistence and 'filial impiety' over the years, she wouldn't know how many times her parents would have sold her.

She reached out and pushed open the window, letting the night breeze in.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, and the anger and bitterness in my heart eased a little.

The next second, a warm chest pressed against me.

The man's powerful aura enveloped her, mingled with the fresh scent of his recent bath.

Lu Xingci turned around alertly and pushed the person away.

What are you doing?

Shen Yu was not wearing any clothes, only a bath towel wrapped around his waist.

Her hair was wet and hung down naturally.

Water droplets dripped from the tips of his hair, flowing down his full pectoral muscles and across his well-defined abdominal muscles.

The mermaid line disappears into the edge of the bath towel.

He wasn't angry when he was pushed; he remained nonchalant.

He spread his hands, his lazy, magnetic voice brushing against his earlobe like a feather tickling.

"I thought you needed a warm hug right now, but it seems I misunderstood?"

Lu Xingci rolled her eyes at him and walked past Shen Yu.

"Thank you for today, but that's all."

From now on, I hope Mr. Shen can still treat me like a stranger, the kind of person who doesn't even greet me when we meet.

During the years she was with Song Qinghui, she met Shen Yu a few times.

But aside from exchanging greetings when they meet, they don't really have any interaction.

She disliked playboys like Shen Yu, who changed women constantly and wasn't afraid of getting sick!

Thinking of this, Lu Xingci suddenly realized that he should get a physical examination when he returned to Beijing.

Shen Yu clutched his chest, which had just been pushed, and clicked his tongue with interest.

"Tsk, the prettier they are, the more ruthless they are."

"I'm your savior, shouldn't you repay my kindness by marrying me?"

His response was Lu Xingci's cold and indifferent back.

I was originally planning to take a shower before going to sleep.

But I came back in a hurry and didn't bring any change of clothes, nor did I want to wear a bathrobe and share a room with Shen Yu.

Even worse was the room's decor.

The bathroom's glass walls are made of a frosted, semi-transparent material.

She was taking a bath inside, and Shen Yu could see it all clearly from outside.

After thinking it over, I decided to just go to sleep.

I booked a ticket back to Beijing for tomorrow morning. I'll just have to wait until I get back tomorrow to wash it; it's the same thing.

But the next second, the blanket covering her was pulled off.

A uniquely masculine aura forcefully invaded.

Lu Xingci quickly turned around and pushed the other person away with both hands.

"Shen Yu, what are you doing?"

Shen Yu looked down at the other person's hand resting on his chest.

"It seems you quite like my breasts, touching them again and again."

怎幺样，手感满意吗？」

As he spoke, he reached out and squeezed Lu Xingci's hand against his chest.

Lu Xingci abruptly pulled his hand back, his face grim.

"Stay away from me."

Shen Yu pouted slightly, her captivating peach blossom eyes drooping at the corners, revealing a pitiful puppy-like appearance.

"But I'm scared."

This bed smells musty; I'm afraid mice will crawl into my bed at night.

Lu Xingci took a deep breath and moved back a step, touching the edge of the bed.

"Isn't my bed the same as theirs?"

Shen Yu moved closer to her and lowered his head to sniff her.

"It's different. You smell nice, and I sleep more soundly when I'm next to you."

Lu Xingci was already feeling troubled because of her mother's words.

At this moment, she naturally had no time for romantic thoughts, and she was even more annoyed at having to deal with Shen Yu.

She reached out and pushed the person away.

Unexpectedly, the other person was quite large, and when she pushed him, Shen Yu didn't budge an inch.

She herself was falling backward due to the force.

Just a second before she fell towards the floor, Shen Yu swiftly reached out and grabbed her waist, pulling her back onto the bed.

In the blink of an eye, she was back in Shen Yu's arms.

Her face was pressed against his burning chest.

His long neck and prominent Adam's apple were right in front of me.

It involuntarily reminded her of that day at the hotel, when she tilted her head back and bit his Adam's apple in a moment of passion.

Feeling embarrassed, she looked away and pushed him away.

"Shen Yu, let me go."

Shen Yu rested his chin on her head, hugging her even tighter, his voice lazy and magnetic, carrying obvious fatigue.

"Alright, don't move. I came all the way from Beijing and have been here with you all this time."

I'm so tired, I need to go to sleep.

I promise I won't touch you tonight.

I don't know if it was because he hugged too tightly or because we were too close.

Lu Xingci felt his breathing becoming increasingly rapid and disordered.

Even below the chest, the heartbeat was accelerating uncontrollably.

She didn't want to have anything to do with Shen Yu.

She didn't want to repeat the mistakes she made that night when she was drunk.

But now, pressed against his chest, he felt a rare sense of peace.

Listening to his heartbeat, Lu Xingci quickly fell asleep.

When the alarm clock rang, it was already the next morning.

Lu Xingci slowly opened her eyes and saw Shen Yu's handsome face, which was as if it were a masterpiece created by Nuwa.

He actually kept his promise, holding her all night and not doing anything else to her.

On the contrary, she found herself clinging to Shen Yu like a koala.

She draped her hands and feet over Shen Yu, her body pressed tightly against his.

They were intimate and ambiguous, like lovers deeply in love.

Her eyes widened, and her cheeks flushed uncontrollably, as if she had done something wrong and was afraid of being caught.

She quietly withdrew her hands and feet, then lifted the covers and quietly got out of bed.

After quickly washing up, she unzipped her backpack and took out 120 yuan, placing it on the table.

Shen Yu paid the room fee last night, and the deposit will be returned when we check out.

So she only needs to pay half of the room fee.

After paying, Lu Xingci quietly closed the door and quickly took the elevator downstairs.

I hailed a taxi at the hotel entrance to go to the high-speed rail station.
