Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Lu Shaoming laughed lightly. “I have to go to the office at 5am tomorrow.”
Ning Qing nodded her head to agree and speedily looked at her mum. She said loudly, “Mum, I have to leave for school at 5am tomorrow. ”
Yue Wanqing, “….”
Granny laughed, “Qingqing what nonsense are you spouting? The school gates are not opened at 5am! Ay, a married daughter is akin to water spilled out of the house. Ah, your mum asked you to stay for the night. Looking at both of you, husband and wife; you are just so reluctant to separate from one another.”
“Grandma!” Ning Qing said in embarrassment.
“Okay, Shaoming, Qingqing, we will wait for you to return on the weekends to sleep over then. The sky has darkened already. Hurry home now!”
“Okay.” Lu Shaoming walked Ning Qing out the door.
After walking for two steps, Yue Wanqing asked, puzzled, “Qingqing, what’s wrong with your legs? You bumped it just now. Why is it still shaking?”
Ning Qing, “…”
“Oh, Mum, Ning Qing has been exercising recently. Maybe she overdid it, and so her legs are shaking,” Lu Shaoming said calmly without a tinge of red in his face, while his gaze was fixed on Mu Yunfan.
Mu Yunfan curled his lips into a cold smile.
Ning Qing pulled Lu Shaoming’s sleeve in shock. What was he talking about. He was becoming bolder and bolder. Exercise?
“Exercising? Qingqing, you be sure to take care of your body in the future,” Yue Wanqing said seriously.
“I got it, Mum. Granny, Brother Yun Fan, we will be leaving.” Ning Qing left with a wave.
After the duo walked out the apartment doors, Ning Qing used her fist to punch Lu Shaoming’s shoulder. “Oi, why did you say ‘exercise’ just now? Embarrassing!”
Lu Shaoming cupped her waist as he led her into the elevator. His deep gaze was focused on her, and he asked, “You are embarrassed now? You were enjoying the exercise while it was happening.”
Lu Shaoming pouted and she stood on her tiptoes to use her small hands to cup his handsome face. “You are not allowed to say anything! You are still talking? You dare say it again?!”
Lu Shaoming let her pinch him with a loving gaze in his eyes. The youthful girl in his embrace was jumping and flailing happily. She spoke with a mischievous tone; it was very adorable.
It was at this moment that he realized that he’d married a female student who was still very young. She hadn’t fully developed, but he’d started devouring her already.
He took her into his embrace, and threatened her with darkened eyes, “Don’t fuss! If you continue, we will continue exercising today.”
“I don’t want to. I only rested for a night. You said you would allow me to rest last night.” Ning Qing lay in his warm embrace, fluttering her eyes and looking pitiful while counting her pale fingers for him to see.
Her lashes were as long as a butterfly’s wings. They were akin to feathers brushing across his face lightly. Lu Shaoming gave her a tight hug and kissed her face. “Wifey, why are you torturing me so much? So childish, like an underage child!”
“Who’s the childish one? Lu Shaoming, you better make it clear!” Ning Qing said, rumbling with laughter as she pinched her collar of his shirt.
At this moment, the elevator door rang with a ‘Ring!’ Lu Shaoming did not bother with her and walked out of the door.
Ning Qing followed behind him. Ignoring the passers-by that walked past her in the lobby, she cloyingly trailed him and said, “Lu Shaoming, wait for me.”
She could not catch up with Lu Shaoming’s long strides. He exited the lobby and descended the steps in a flash.
Ning Qing saw that he was really ignoring her. She stood at the top of the steps and stomped her feet, muttering under her breath, “Lu Shaoming, if you don’t wait for me, I will go upstairs to sleep with my mum.”
Lu Shaoming stopped upon hearing her words. He turned around, his thin coat swaying elegantly over his defined figure. His eyes shimmered like dark obsidian. He said in a pampering tone, “Who said I wouldn’t wait for you? I merely went down a flight of stairs. What, do you expect me to carry you on my back?”
“Aren’t your thighs hurting? Come on.” The man turned around, his handsome back bent slightly, allowing her to get on.
This was more like it.
Ning Qing felt a tinge of sweetness in her heart. Looking at his mesmerizing and healthy figure in his suit and shirt, she felt a wave of warmth travel through her body.
No matter how she looked at her husband, he was extremely charming.
“Shaoming, I’m coming.” She spread out her hands from the 3rd step. The man steadily held onto her rear and picked her up.
“Are your hands cold? Place them inside my clothes,” he gently suggested as he continued walking. He could barely feel her weight. She wasn’t even ninety pounds..
Ning Qing hooked her arms onto his neck and placed her petite face beside his defined face. She nudged him, her red lips blowing hot air onto his cheeks. “Hubby, are you cold?” She placed her hand into the collar of his suit without hesitation, touching his premium custom made shirt.
Her hand touched his chest. His heart was thumping fiercely.
It beat with a steady rhythm. Its vibrations made her palm go numb.
Her small hands were warm, and her heart was melting.
“I am not cold, as long as Wifey continues hugging me tightly.”
“Okay.” Ning Qing tightened her grip on him, her small lips boldly pecking his cheek. “Hubby, thank you for allowing Brother Yunfan to live with Mum.”
Lu Shaoming did not stop smiling, he turned slightly, “Brother Yunfan, Brother Yunfan. You refer to him so intimately! Wifey, call me Brother Shaoming?”
When Ning Qing heard his words, her face turned crimson red. “Shameless! You are already 30, so much older than me. You still want to be addressed as Brother? You should be addressed as Uncle!”
“Who’s the shameless one? You like those who resemble an uncle-figure!”
“You!”
“Hug me tight, your Uncle Shaoming will make you fly, okay?” Lu Shaoming suddenly quickened his steps, and dashed forward like an arrow.
“Ah!” Ning Qing shrieked and tightened her grip on him. She laughed and her small hand touched his face. She felt that he was the warmth in her winter home.
With him around, it was obvious that everything was perfect.
Yue Wanqing was in boiling water in the kitchen. Mu Yunfan walked in and asked, “Aunt Wanqing, how long have Qingqing and Young Master Lu been married? Why did I not receive a wedding invitation from them? Did they not hold a banquet?”
“No, they did not,” Yun Wanqing nodded her head. “They registered their marriage at a courthouse and have not planned for a wedding banquet.”
“Why are they not organizing one? Aunt Wanqing, don’t you know that rich families value weddings the most? This is basic respect towards the newlywed couple. Young Master Lu is a member of high society. Lu Corporation has an international presence. Qingqing married into the Lu family and became Madam Lu. Shouldn’t this be announced to the world? Now they are hiding and covering it up like this. This is unfair to Qingqing.”
“This…”
Mu Yunfan saw the hesitation on Yue Wanqing’s face and continued, “Aunt Wanqing, have you already met Young Master Lu’s parents? His family is rich and mighty. Normal wealthy families are unable to reach their level, his parents must have rigorous conditions that they expect of a daughter in law. Do they like Qingqing?”
Yue Wanqing was put to a spot. Mu Yunfan’s questions perfectly captured the questions and worries that she’d buried deeply in her heart.
She was worried about this.
She had not met Shaoming’s parents. By right, they should have interacted already as in-laws.
Mu Yunfan was satisfied. Lu Shaoming said that he’d won over entire Ning family; Mu Yunfan did not think he actually did so.
Every relationship would have its cracks. He only needed to find that thin crack and constantly expand it. It’d eventually snowball into something big.
Mu Yunfan wanted to continue speaking, but a shout from downstairs stopped him. “Ah!”
Yue Wanqing and Mu Yunfan both turned their attention to look down from the window. They only saw Lu Shaoming running while carrying Ning Qing. They could see clearly as the duo were far off, but they could clearly hear Ning Qing’s crystal clear laughter that rang through the air like a chime in the night, spreading to each corner of the city.
Mu Yunfan’s expression became heavy in an instant.
Yue Wanqing nodded her head in satisfaction and said emotionally, “Times have changed. The young people all register their marriages and start living their own lives. As for those elaborate grand weddings, how can such things win over a caring and doting husband? I respect them and also trust Shaoming. Shaoming really loves Qingqing; even I can feel it. He will treat her well for the rest of their lives. Also, as for his parents, parents cannot win over their kids. Whatever Shaoming likes, I believe his parents will also like.”
Mu Yunfan redrew his gaze. The man was lost in thought.
It seems that underestimated Lu Shaoming.
This man was extremely competent in capturing other’s hearts.
The next morning, Ning Qing went to school. There was a gym class in the afternoon. This was a compulsory class for girls in the arts faculty, to strengthen the body and protect themselves.
Reaching the gym, she noticed that the corridor was packed to the brim. The girls were chatting incessantly…
“Wow, I never imagined that he would be our new gym instructor; I’m so glad,.Mum will never have to worry about me skipping class from now on.”
“That’s right, I heard that he donated 3 blocks to our school. He is so generous, handsome, gentle, and wealthy. He really is the best option among all the young scions of society.”
Who were they talking about, Ning Qing was listening to them from the back in confusion.
Their previous gym instructor was a woman in her 40s.
At this moment, the school bell rang, and Ning Qing squeezed her way through the crowd to get inside.
Walking into the classroom, she was shocked. It was Mu Yunfan.
Mu Yunfan noticed her gaze. He turned his head and curled his lips, giving her a gentle smile.
“Wow, he smiled! He smiled! I am fainting due to the electricity in the air!” the group of girls who were huddled beside the door and windows of the room exclaimed.
Ning Qing blushed. She was embarrassed. Mu Yunfan was dressed in a white training suit. His beautiful eyes were too handsome and youthful; he was a teenage girl killer.
Ning Qing did not think of being so high profile. Other students were all seated. She lowered her gaze in a hurry. She hurriedly ran to the back.
Why did Brother Yunfan come?
“Okay, everyone is present, then let me introduce myself. My name is Mu Yunfan. I will be everyone’s gym instructor from now on.”
The students all applauded enthusiastically. They were excited. “Young Master Mu, why would you come to be our fitness instructor? You are from such a privileged background; there must be a reason behind this. We are so curious, please let us know, Young Master Mu.”
“That’s right, that’s right. Please tell us Young Master Mu.”….
Mu Yunfan who was standing at the front had his vision fixed on a petite figure in the crowd. “I…am here for a girl.”
Ning Qing’s heart thumped furiously. Her thin arms were nudged by the person beside her, “Ning Qing, Ning Qing, Young Master Mu is talking about you.”
Ning Qing lifted her head, everyone was staring at her from every possible direction. There was jealousy and admiration, and she became the focus of the crowd.
“Ha, haha…” Ning Qing felt uncomfortable and could only give a forced smile.
How could Brother Yunfan officially declare that he was here for her?
It was hard to keep a low profile after this.
“Okay, let us begin. Today let’s practice meditation. Breathe in and out. Relax your breathing.”
The students were seated on the yellow futon. Ning Qing sat down, too. Following Mu Yunfan’s instructions, she closed her eyes and inhaled deeply.
The classroom was silent. Everyone was extremely focused.
Mu Yunfan sat on the futon in front to meditate. He was the embodiment of peaceful handsomeness.
When Ning Qing reopened her eyes to look outside, 40mins had passed. There were still hordes of excited girls outside.
They were almost salivating at Mu Yunfan.
Ning Qing looked at her phone, it was time for dismissal. It was almost 5, but Mu Yunfan gave no sign of wanting to dismiss them, and the students didn’t want to be dismissed either.
She was in a hurry, when Lu Shaoming brought her to school this morning, they made a pact. He would come to pick her up, and he asked her to wait at the school gates at 5.
Lu Shaoming would be here soon, what should she do?
At this moment, Mu Yunfan opened his eyes, he saw worry on her face. He stood up and walked to her side and bent down.
“Qingqing, what’s wrong?” Because everyone was in meditation, the classroom was silent, and when he spoke to her closely, his lips were almost on her ears.
The mild sensation let her to freeze and she looked away not knowing what to do.
The two had their faces close to each other. When she turned to look at him, she suddenly crashed into his deep eyes. Their lips only had the distance of a piece of paper between them.
He had the scent of a refreshing men’s perfume. It was pleasant smelling.
“Wow…” the girls outside the classroom exclaimed. “They are close to kissing…”
The other classmates in the room opened their eyes to peek at them.
Ning Qing’s face was bright red. She brought herself backwards and plodded onto the floor.
“Brother Yunfan, it’s time for dismissal.”
Brother Yunfan noticed her desperate look. He laughed out loud and asked, “Is it time for dismissal? Everyone wants to go home now?”
“Young Master Mu, we don’t want to. Let us practice for a while more.” The students wanted more time to interact with him and all agreed to not end class.
Ning Qing froze and was in a dilemma.
“Qingqing, everyone wants to stay in class. If you want to leave now, that’s okay. I’ll give you special treatment. But everyone will say I’m biased towards you in the future.”
This made her want to leave. But she could not leave or stay
Mu Yunfan rose up. He continued to sit on the futon. Ning Qing looked at the time. She bit her lower lip. She could only summon her energy and return to the futon.
She did not want to have special treatment and hoped that Lu Shaoming would not be angry.
Class was dismissed after an hour. It was 6. Ning Qing left the classroom without bidding farewell to Mu Yunfan, and she ran like the wind to the school gates.
There was a familiar luxury Bentley under the amber road lamp. Lu Shaoming, who was dressed in a black winter coat, was lying lazily on the car, waiting quietly.
“Shaoming.” Ning Qing ran to him quickly. “Sorry, I’m late. You waited for very long, didn’t you?”
Lu Shaoming lifted his gaze to look at her. She’d run out in a rush. Her face was flushed, and she was panting heavily. He shook his head gently, “I didn’t wait for long. Get in the car.”
He politely opened the passenger door for her.
