Chapter 678 - The Showdown of Lu and Lin (12)
She said he had aged.
Lu Jinwen did not have any concept of age, but he had definitely aged when he compared himself to her.
His vision was filled with this fresh, youthful face. Lu Jinwen’s deep, almond-shaped eyes wandered about her body lustily. “Don’t people say that men are responsible for earning money and supporting the family, and women are responsible for maintaining their beautiful looks? I’ve enough money for you to spend lavishly and you are as beautiful as a flower. Isn’t that very fair?”
“Oh.” Lin Xuanji raised her willowy eyebrows. “But I remember that I am able to earn money myself too.”
She was shockingly talented and was the mastermind creator behind the classic jewelry brand DHA. That year, Lin Xuanji was also earning a lot of money, and if she had not met him, she would have been rich herself.
Lu Jinwen smiled and his voice became even lower. “You are able to earn money. But I know how to… arrange flowers.”
Arrange… flowers?
He grasped her exquisite cheeks forcefully. The woman’s skin was so tender that red marks promptly appeared from the force that he exacted.
Lin Xuanji opened her mouth from that tremendous pain.
Lu Jinwen let out a low laugh and he licked his thin lips with his bloodied tongue. “Don’t blame me for not warning you. If you dare to bite me again, I will order someone to cut off your son’s tongue. Anyway… he’s a dumb mute who can’t speak.”
He emphasized the word “dumb”.
Lin Xuanji immediately raised her hand and slapped him.
The crisp sound of the slap reverberated around the bamboo hut. Lu Jinwen’s handsome face had been slapped.
The tension in the room had become solemn and oppressive.
The pain and hurt from all these years had been frozen in a distant place, but time did not enable one to forget about it, and it was heart wrenching to revisit the pain.
Lu Jinwen gradually turned his handsome face around and he held her slender waist. He half-carried and half-pushed her onto the large bed.
Both of them rolled onto the bed. Lu Jinwen grasped her slender neck with some force.
He wanted to strangle her.
“When I dote on you, you can slap me countless times. When I don’t dote on you anymore, you’d better treat me with respect.” His voice was extremely menacing, as if it was forced from his throat.
He was grasping Lin Xuanji’s neck. It would be easy for him to kill her.
Lin Xuanji did not plead for mercy. Her face was already bright red. She looked at him and laughed coldly. “Lu Jinwen, strangle me to death if you have the ability. But only if you can bear to do so.”
Only if you can bear to do so.
These words seemed to taught him and agitated Lu Jinwen till his eyes became bloodshot. The man’s handsome eyes became frosty, which made one fearful.
But not Lin Xuanji.
The woman under his hands was almost out of breath, but refused to give in. He promptly retracted his large palms from her delicate neck.
Lin Xuanji gasped and sucked in ragged breaths of fresh air. She laid on the bed and coughed violently.
At this moment, the man came up to her from behind. He buried his head deeply into her silky hair and muttered. “Darling, of course I can’t bear to. You smell too good.”
With that, he started to kiss her face.
Lin Xuanji was unwilling to be kissed. She struggled for a while, but the man’s long fingers pressed on her shoulder and placed her onto the soft bed.
“Shh, don’t speak. Listen and see if there’s any sound outside.” Lu Jinwen smiled sinisterly.
Lin Xuanji cocked her ear and listened. There was a flurry of footsteps outside and Butler Ye’s respectful voice came through the door. “Sir, I’ve already brought Young Master Tang over.”
Lin Xuanji’s eyes narrowed. He had really brought Tang Chenyi over. This bastard.
“Lu Jinwen… Ah!”
Her vision went black and Lu Jinwen captured her red lips forcefully.
