Lu Zhanbei rubbed his lips tightly and sighed in compromise. “I’m in the wrong.”
“…”
“I shouldn’t be fierce toward you, I shouldn’t…”
Without waiting for Lu Zhanbei to finish his reflection, Lin Wanwan hugged him fiercely and buried her face in his chest. “I should be the one to apologize. I know you’re worried about me, but… Lu Zhanbei, I have these damned morals. I can’t watch a human die right in front of me.”
It used to be that way in the past. It was still the same now.
Lu Zhanbei touched her head. “I know.”
What he loved was her passion and vividness.
After he’d seen so much coldness and blood, she was like a ray of sunlight that shone into his heart. With her around, he didn’t feel the darkness and loneliness.
“Be more careful in the future.”
No matter how much he said, it was useless if this woman didn’t listen to them.
“I will. We haven’t gotten married yet and Lu Chi and Lu Cha are not born yet. I can’t bear to die.”
Lu Zhanbei smiled. It was so gentle that it was as if the sunlight had broken through the dark clouds.
It was just that the way he spoke was creepy. “Yes, if you play with fire again and die from it in the future, someone will sleep with your husband and hit your son and daughter. The one who will be buried together with me won’t be you either.”
“…” Lin Wanwan knew that justice was not on her side and didn’t dare to retaliate. She had her back face him again. “Continue.”
Lu Zhanbei continued to treat her wound.
“It’s so painful! Lu Zhanbei, is your hand the same as that of a pig’s trotter? Why can’t you understand what gentleness means? If I had known earlier, I would have gotten the nurse to apply medicine for me instead!”
Lu Zhanbei laughed.
She was clearly waiting for the opportunity to take revenge.
“I saw how the way she treated your wound earlier wasn’t any gentler either. Why didn’t you feel pained then?”
Lin Wanwan mumbled, “How is that the same? She’s an outsider. No matter how much I’m hurting, she won’t feel heartache for me. Of course I have to bear with it. You’re my future husband. I don’t have to tolerate it and I don’t want to tolerate it. You should dote on me and pamper me.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhanbei became silent.
After a long while, he responded with an “Ok.”
Lu Zhanbei asked Lin Wanwan to remove her clothes when it was time to change the gauze. She twisted unwillingly. “What if you become lecherous again?”
Lu Zhanbei was angered, and he lifted his hand to slap her buttocks.
“Remove them quickly!”
Lu Zhanbei initially thought that his mind would be settled. However, after Lin Wanwan removed her clothes, his Adam’s apple still moved subconsciously twice.
After having her gauze changed, Lin Wanwan lay on the bed face-down.
“Will I have a scar on my back?”
“Are you worried only now?”
Lin Wanwan snorted coldly. “I’m just worried that you will use this as an excuse to despise me.”
Lu Zhanbei looked enlightened. “Why didn’t I think of this good idea?”
Lin Wanwan was shocked at first. Then, she started to fake cry. “You have no conscience. Now that you have slept with me, you’ve started to despise me. You heartless man…”
Lu Zhanbei smiled leisurely. “Continue. I’ll listen.”
Lin Wanwan felt that there was no meaning to this and rolled her eyes at him while lying to the side.
“Tell me.”
“What about?”
“What happened.”
Lin Wanwan told him what had happened concisely. “I feel that Lin Qingxi did this.”
Before Lu Zhanbei came over, he had already gotten Gu Mo to check on this. “We will find out soon.”
“I don’t know how Zilin is now as well.”
The doctor said earlier that Liu Zilin’s injuries weren’t too serious. At the very least, she kept both her legs. However, it was unknown how long it would take for her to recover.
Not too long later, Gu Mo arrived.
“Sir, I’ve checked.”
