Forced Love: The Villainous Female Supporting Character is Kissed and Cried by the Yandere Villain

Xu Wuning looked down at the row of rings, then looked up at Lu Jingci.

Lu Jingci knelt there, his ears turning bright red without him even noticing.

"These are all gems I bought at auction. I bought a lot, and these are just a few I picked out. There are many more."

"At every auction, I buy gemstones and have them custom-made into rings so I can propose to you."

His voice was a little dry: "But... I've never dared to propose, and I've been saving up for more and more rings."

He pointed to the five rings and explained them one by one from left to right, "The blue one is called Heart of the Abyss. It was photographed in the autumn. I knew you would like it as soon as I saw it."

"The pink one is called Sunset Glow. It was taken in winter. When I was taking the picture, a wealthy foreign businessman actually dared to compete with me for it. I had to raise the price three times before I finally got it."

"The red one is called 'Acacia,' it'll be auctioned this spring. The transparent one..."

He paused and continued, "That one has no name, it's called Nameless, but the cutting is unique. It was the last one to be shown, and all the lights in the room went out, except for one beam of light that shone on it, making the whole room burst with fire."

"The dark green one is called Night Forest. I was thinking that if you have too many on your hands and can't wear them all, you can wear them on your ankle."

Xu Wuning: "..."

Wearing them on your feet would be uncomfortable, and you wouldn't be able to walk properly.

Lu Jingci looked up at her. Her eyes were still moist, but they were different from when she had pretended to be pitiful that morning. Instead, they were sincere and genuine.

His voice was even lower than before, "Ningning, I'm giving you these things not to propose or force you to say yes, but because I want to make you happy."

"Just like these hot air balloons, I hope you like them. If you don't, that's okay too. Just tell me and I'll buy you something else."

"It's okay if you don't forgive me. I just want you to know that I have a lot of sincerity, not just in a physical way."

After saying this, he cautiously stole a glance at her. "Ningning, are you happy with these balloons and rings?"

His eyes held expectation, trepidation, and barely concealed panic; his palms were sweating as he waited for Xu Wuning's reply.

Xu Wuning felt uncomfortable being stared at by him, and coughed lightly, "It's...it's alright."

She thought that Lu Jingci's attempt to seduce her at the gym last night was his last resort, but she didn't expect that he would bring out a hot air balloon and pull out a ring first thing in the morning.

One move after another, she didn't even have time to react, and her cheeks were burning and flushed, she was inexplicably nervous.

To make conversation, she added, "She's quite pretty."

Then she realized that the sentence sounded like she was very satisfied, so she quickly pursed her lips, raised her chin, and put on an expression that said, "It's just so-so."

Sunlight streamed through the hot air balloon, bathing the two people in its glow, while the rings on the ground shimmered with tiny sparkles.

The atmosphere really felt like a marriage proposal.

Xu Wuning felt that if she stayed any longer, her face would start to burn.

She turned around abruptly and walked towards the entrance to the terrace, her steps much faster than usual, as if she were fleeing in a hurry.

"That's enough," she changed the subject, her voice muffled. "I'm going to work. It's so late. If it gets any later, the meeting won't start, and everyone's waiting."

She paused, but didn't turn around. "However, since you gave them to me, I might as well take them. Send all these rings to my house."

She stepped into the porch, raising her hand as if to adjust her tie, while simultaneously shielding her burning cheeks.

Lu Jingci was still kneeling on the spot when he heard that she wanted to accept the ring. His eyes lit up instantly.

He was about to stand up and chase after him.

Xu Wuning's voice drifted over again, "But don't forget, you haven't been forgiven yet. You've committed too many crimes and are still under probation."

Lu Jingci froze in mid-air, the light in his eyes dimmed for two seconds, and then quickly curved his eyes again.

It's okay, this is already a big improvement.

Ningning used to ignore him and wouldn't even reply to his messages, but now at least she accepted his ring and even asked him to deliver it to her home.

He will eventually succeed.

Yes, definitely.

Thinking of this, he beamed and strode after her, "Okay, Ningning, I'm going to the company too, I'll take you there."

"Ningning, wait for me..."

-

After finishing her meeting, Xu Wuning was in her office handling contracts.

Meanwhile, Lu Jingci, having finished his work, stared blankly at his three-page pursuit plan after figuring it out.

This morning, he had already used the "hot air balloon" pursuit plan, which is flying in the air. There is another plan in the air on the next page.

He can combine similar ones together, and tonight he'll implement another one, that's right, just like that.

Lu Jingci got ready, his eyebrows curved into a smile, and using an excuse, picked up the documents in his hand and walked towards Xu Wuning's office.

At the office door.

Lu Jingci tiptoed and peeked through the crack in the door at Xu Wuning inside, listening to the sounds coming from inside.

Xu Wuning was on the phone, her tone full of indulgence and pampering: "Okay, Yueyue, I know."

Su Wanyue's cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone: "Ningning, hehe, I did a good job. Can you reward me with a kiss?"

Xu Wuning smiled gently, her eyes crinkling into crescents: "Of course, a kiss."

As she spoke, she gave a kiss to the person on the other end of the phone.

Lu Jingci, standing outside the door, felt a tightness in his chest, a mixture of envy and bitterness, and a strong sense of jealousy welled up inside him.

This made him extremely jealous.

He was silent for a few seconds, then, holding the documents, he knocked on the door, gently pushed it open, and went inside.

Hearing the noise, Xu Wuning looked up at him, casually put down her phone, and calmly asked, "Did you come in for something?"

Lu Jingci stood in front of the desk, remaining silent for a long time. His eyes were lowered, and his face showed a conflicted and hesitant expression. "I want..."

Xu Wuning put down her pen: "What do you want?"

Lu Jingci looked up, her voice weak: "I dare not say."

Xu Wuning was impatient: "Hurry up and say it, stop dawdling, or you might as well not say anything and just get out."

Lu Jingci finally spoke, a glimmer of hope flickering in his eyes: "Alright, then I'll tell you."

"I heard it all just now, you gave Su Wanyue a kiss from a distance."

"Ningning, today is our third anniversary after my birthday. Since I tried so hard last night and made you happy this morning, could you reward me with a kiss?"

Xu Wuning: "..."

She didn't understand and asked疑惑地问道, "What does 'third month anniversary after birthday' mean?"

"What day was that?"

Lu Jingci poked back and forth with two fingers: "That's right, I just celebrated my birthday, and this is the third month since then."

Xu Wuning was shocked: "..."

Is this some special day? What kind of bizarre day is this?

If there really aren't any anniversaries, are we just making up dates?

Lu Jingci moved closer to her, offering his cheek, his voice soft and gentle, "So, can you give me a kiss too, Ningning?"
