She dared to scold him?
This girl was raised by him and yet she was getting more unruly as time passed. She was even riding over his head now.
Lu Yan’s gaze darkened.
Gu An’an pulled on his sleeve without relent, till his black shirt had some creases. She pouted her lips and looked at Xue Niang.
She faltered, not saying all the words that she originally wanted to say. Her eyes were filled with grievance.
Lu Yan glanced at Xue Niang with the corner of his eye and instructed, “Leave us alone.”
Xue Niang nodded. “Okay.”
After Xue Niang had left the room and there wasn’t anyone else left, An’an finally let go of him and she lowered her head. “Is this Xue Niang your woman?”
Lu Yan pursed his lips, not saying a word at all.
An’an knew that she was raising a redundant question. Xue Niang was his woman in the past. Back then, he wasn’t a good man.
She turned around to leave.
But a calloused palm suddenly stretched over to grasp her wrist. Pulling on her wrist forcefully, she landed on his muscular chest.
Mmph!
Her nose knocked into his chest and his body was just like a wall, every part of it was hard.
“What are you trying to do?” She resisted somewhat unhappily.
Lu Yan held her slim waist with one muscular arm, easily holding her in his embrace. He was tall and they had a head difference of at least two heads. He lowered his head to look at her. “Why do you even care so much about it, it happened almost two decades ago. You weren’t even born at that time.”
An’an finally quietened down. That’s right, she wasn’t even born at that time, why was she even being calculative? But she didn’t care, she still was being petty over it.
She pouted her lips again. Hmph!
“You’re still angry?”
An’an suddenly felt nauseated. She placed her hand on her chest and retched.
Once Lu Yan saw her retching, his entire expression changed. He patted her back and asked with worry, “You’re not feeling well? What’s wrong?”
An’an knew that he was concerned about whether she was pregnant or not. “Lu Yan, I’m really not pregnant.”
“Have you gotten a check-up?”
“No.”
She had been in operations for the FIU all along, how was she going to find the time to visit the hospital to get a check-up?
Lu Yan lifted his arm, placing a calloused palm on her stomach as he made circles on it.
He seemed so happy. She could tell that he really yearned for a child.
An’an pushed his hand away. “Let me ask you this, what do you plan to do if I’m really pregnant?”
Lu Yan lifted his eyes. “I want my son and my son’s mother too!”
This man… was really manly.
An’an smiled. “But what if… I’m not pregnant?”
Lu Yan didn’t say a word, he simply furrowed his brows.
An’an instantly balled her hands into fists to pummel him. “You don’t want me if I’m not pregnant, you jerk, scum!”
But she hadn’t managed to pummel him, since Lu Yan caught her fists and pulled her entire being into his embrace. “Who said that I don’t want you? There’s even more reason for me to keep the mother hen, since you’ll eventually lay my eggs!”
His words tugged at An’an’s heartstrings, as though she had just eaten honey. She felt so sweet inside but she still had to be spiteful. “Who’s the mother hen? Who’d even use such an analogy, why are you so uncultured?”
She could say anything that she wanted, Lu Yan didn’t deny it. He planted a kiss on her forehead. “I know that you care a lot about my past, but there’s no way to change any of it. Twenty years ago, I also didn’t know that there would be you in the future.”
An’an’s eyes watered. Yes, she had come late.
She stretched out both arms to hug him. “Your past doesn’t belong to me but I want you now, as well as your future. You’re not allowed to have any other woman except for me. Understand?”
Lu Yan smiled. “I’ve never had any other ever since I had you three years ago.”
An’an nuzzled her head against his chest before unbuttoning his black shirt. The diamond ring was still around his neck.
“The amputated part of your leg is infected and swollen. I want to see it.”
“What’s there to see?”
“I just want to see it.”
Lu Yan let go of her, sitting on the bed. He spread his long legs apart but she wasn’t moving. “Didn’t you ask to see it? Why aren’t you coming over yet.”
He grabbed her hand and pulled her over.
An’an stood between his legs and he suddenly used some force, holding her in place with his legs.
Gangster!
An’an’s face flushed red, the position they were in was far too intimate.
“Unbuckle my belt,” he ordered.
An’an looked at him for a moment before she stretched her hands out to unbuckle his belt. But even after two tries she hadn’t managed to unbuckle it. She simply had no experience doing it.
“How do I open this?” She crouched over to unbuckle it with fumbling hands.
With two slender fingers, he picked up her jaw, forcing her to lift her head. Her eyes met with his brown ones. “Gu An’an, have you thought it through? I can’t give you anything at all now, you’re not going to be able to lead a good life if you choose to stay with me.”
An’an’s eyes crinkled into a beautiful smile. “I want to lead a tough life with you.”
Lu Yan pursed his lips. “No way it’s going to be tough. I’m going to dote on you well, I can even give you my life.”
An’an’s eyes turned watery. She knew that this man never told lies, he was making a promise by saying those words.
“I need a little more time now. I used to be alone and I could just lead a simple life without caring about anything but now there’s you in the picture. I need some time to prepare stuff. No matter what, I won’t let you suffer, understand?”
Was that his confession?
Why did he have to be so overbearing even when he was confessing?
But An’an loved it. It was so undeniably him. She nodded happily. “I understand.”
“Return to your brother’s side tomorrow. You’re not allowed to get involved with this Delia anymore.” He suddenly changed the topic.
His words sobered her. “I’m in an operation now, I can’t just go back like that.”
“There’s no one else left in the FIU that you’d have to come use your beauty to fool him?” Lu Yan revealed a sardonic smile. He wasn’t a fan of such practices and didn’t have to depend on them. “Delia fancies virgins, are you still one?”
His gaze then shifted downwards. “If Delia were to learn that you’d been tasted by a man when you were 18 years old, just wait for him to rape you before throwing you to his underlings.”
“What if Delia learned that the man who tasted me is you, his poor chauffeur? What would he do to you?” An’an retaliated quickly with her words.
Once he heard what she said, Lu Yan’s gaze turned dangerously dark and he pressed her lips with his finger. “You’ve gotten more outspoken now.”
He bent over to kiss her on the lips.
Mmgh!
An’an’s eyes were wide open, the man kissed her so passionately without any warning at all, forcing his tongue inside her mouth and exploring every corner of it.
