Lin Xuanji turned her head away to evade his kiss.
So Lu Jinwen did not get to kiss her.
Both their faces were in close proximity and their breaths were entwined. Lu Jinwen stared at her quietly with his almond-shaped eyes and said, “You still like it when I use force, hm?”
He grasped her exquisite chin with his long fingers and forced her face to turn around.
He leaned down to kiss…
Hiss.
Lin Xuanji furrowed her brows and let out a soft whimper.
Lu Jinwen froze and looked at her. “What happened?”
“You’re hurting me…” Lin Xuanji looked at him with bright eyes and there was a hint of tender grievance in her voice. She was really very delicate now, and this was his favorite side of her.
Lu Jinwen released his fingers. There were red marks on her delicate skin at her chin, which was caused by him.
He smiled and his eyes revealed a tinge of satisfaction. Mo’er was already all grown up, and her Mom’s skin was probably just as delicate.
“If you are obedient, I won’t hurt you,” he said in a husky voice.
As long as she was not defiant or cold towards him, and did not think about escaping, he would not hurt her.
This woman was intelligent, she should know what to do to keep him in the palm of her hand, and make him obedient.
There was no woman in this world who would not want an obedient Lu Jinwen.
But she was too obstinate and would always agitate him, clashing with him constantly so they were at loggerheads with each other. She would have been dead a hundred times, if not for the fact that he could not bear to let her go.
During the two years when she had pretended to be insane, she was extremely compliant and he doted on her so much.
Those two years were his happiest times in his entire life.
Of course Lin Xuanji knew how to treat this man. After fighting for so many years, she did not want to live her remaining years in vain.
“Lu Jinwen, hug me.”
She had said to him, ‘Hug me.’
Lu Jinwen’s handsome and chiseled features became tender. He glanced at her and pulled her into his arms. “Are you afraid that I will kiss and bed you, and that’s why you are hugging me as you think I will be satisfied with that?”
With that, he nuzzled his handsome face in her fragrant hair. “There’s no use. After hugging, I’ll still want to kiss and bed you.”
“…”
Lin Xuanji did not hug him back. She merely smiled, and said in a gentle voice, “Lu Jinwen, that year I asked you to meet me at Bangkok. Did you go?”
That fated meeting at Bangkok.
Lu Jinwen’s deep almond-shaped eyes turned frosty suddenly. This was a thorn in his heart.
“If you had gone there, it would mean that you loved me. If you had not gone there, it would mean that you did not love me. Lu Jinwen, did you go or not?”
Lu Jinwen pressed on the woman’s shoulders and distanced himself away from her. He looked at her quietly, and a malicious sneer played on his thin lips.
“Lin Xuanji, don’t act crazy on me. The Bangkok meetup that year only whetted my appetite. Imprisoning you was the most benevolent act I had in store for you!”
He had exerted a lot of force, and he nearly broke her shoulders. It was evident that he was incensed.
Yes, that day, he had gone to Bangkok Number 7. He had thought… she wanted him dead.
Lin Xuanji smiled and said, “Lu Jinwen, you’ll regret it. Believe me, this day will come very soon.”
Lu Jinwen’s eyes turned somber and he stared at her intensely. At this moment, his cell phone started to ring.
He stuck one hand into his pocket and retrieved his cell phone. It was Lin Xuanyin.
He released Lin Xuanji and walked into the room. “Hello.”
“Jinwen, where are you now?” Lin Xuanyin’s voice came through the phone.
Lu Jinwen’s face was devoid of any expression. He pursed his lips and said indifferently, “Is there anything?”
“Nothing. I just wanted to ask what time you will be back. I’ve prepared supper for you…”
At this moment, Lu Jinwen felt a sudden tightness around his muscular waist, followed by a delicate body pressing against him. Lin Xuanji had hugged him from behind.
His dark eyes suddenly narrowed. It had been a very long time since she initiated any form of intimacy with him.
She actually ran over to hug him?
Lin Xuanji hugged him and said gently, “Lu Jinwen, divorce my sister.”
Divorce?
She asked him to divorce?
Startled, Lu Jinwen froze. Soon later, he smiled in a self-deprecating fashion. Lin Xuanyin and he had been married for so long. During the period that she was imprisoned, she was made a mistress and Mo’er was sent to Lin Xuanyin, but she refused to say such a thing.
All these years, she had never said such a thing before.
But she had said it now.
Now, after they had already wasted half a lifetime.
These words were transmitted loud and clear to Lin Xuanyin, and she was immediately stunned. Even her breathing could not be heard.
Lu Jinwen turned around and his almond-shaped eyes were fixated on Lin Xuanji’s face. He stroked her face with his calloused fingers, and then he caressed her red lips. “Give me a reason, hm?”
A reason? Lin Xuanji looked at him. “I gave birth to two children for you. I don’t want them to be illegitimate children forever. Your wealth, power, fame and business should belong to my children.”
Gave birth to two children…
Lu Jinwen thought about the child that she miscarried. That child might have been a son.
As the founder of Capital, it would be a huge pity to not have a successor. Although he had Mo’er as his daughter, he did not have a son in his life.
His enormous family business that had been passed down for hundreds of years would end in his hands.
But he did not want to give birth to a son with anyone, other than her. If not for this, he would probably have had many sons by now.
Lu Jinwen’s face was devoid of any expression. His calloused fingers pressed on and released her red lips repeatedly. “This reason is insufficient to convince me. I want to hear other reasons.”
“What do you want to hear?”
What did he want to hear?
Lu Jinwen curved his lips seductively and strode forward, pushing her immediately to the side of the bed.
Lin Xuanji’s knee knocked against the side of the bed and both of them fell onto the soft bed.
The cell phone fell onto the bedsheets, though Lin Xuanyin’s voice could be heard. Her voice was laced with panic, shock and helplessness. All these years, besides her status as ‘Mrs Lu’, she had nothing else to her name.
She would clutch on this title for the rest of her life! This was her lifeline!
No, she could not throw this lifeline away!
“Jinwen, are you with Xuanji? No, don’t listen to her. She has returned for revenge… She just wants you to divorce me. She doesn’t love you. She doesn’t love you anymore.
“Jinwen, what do you want to hear? Are you hoping to hear Younger Sister say she wants to marry you and be your Mrs Lu? That’s wishful thinking. If Younger Sister wanted to say that, she would have done so many years before, and not wait until now to say it.
“This time, she has only returned to take revenge! She will take revenge on me and Father, but her ultimate target is you!”
