Chapter 445 - This Is My Engagement Present to You
Lu Yan was a man who had seen the world in its entirety and possessed everything when he was still young and frivolous, which included power, fame and women. Although he was not perfect, he was a trustworthy man.
Once he had chosen a woman, there would only be this woman in his whole life.
He was a man with many vices and flaws and the only thing that was clean about him was… his heart.
His heart, which had been hardened by the ravages of time and vicissitudes of life, had never been touched by any woman before.
Actually, he had wanted to know how it was like to adore someone.
He wanted to experience what it was like to be in love.
At this point, he heard a commotion and someone said, “Come quickly and see, President Gu and Young Madam Gu have arrived, and… Miss An’an is also here.”
Lu Yan’s handsome nose wrinkled. He sniffed again, but the scent seemed to have disappeared.
At this point, the girl’s lotus-like small lips were close to his ear. Her voice was so soft that only both of them could hear. “Ah Yan, do I smell nice?”
Lu Yan’s thick eyelashes moved a little and his eyes blazed coldly. There was a problem with the scent.
“Ah Yan, this is my present for your engagement, the ‘Aphrodisiac Scent’”. After speaking, An’an left.
Lu Yan viciously glared at An’an. He wished he could grab hold of her, lift up her skirt and hit her on her little bottom.
She was indeed outrageous to have drugged him.
Lu Yan felt his body gradually becoming warm and he felt restless within.
“Master Yan, can the engagement banquet commence?” Someone came over to ask.
Lu Yan tried to suppress the rising heat within his body and said, “Let’s wait for a while, Uncle Jin is still not here.”
Lu Jinwen was attending the engagement banquet today.
Gu Mohan looked down at the branded watch on his defined wrist. Lu Jinwen should have arrived already.
He held Tang Mo’er’s delicate little hand in his palm and gently squeezed it. “Mo’er, are you cold?”
Today, Tang Mo’er was wearing a long pink dress, with her long silky hair hanging loosely around her shoulders. She looked at Gu Mohan with her bright eyes and gently shook her head. “I’m not cold, but Mr Gu, when can we go back?”
She did not enjoy being there. It was so boring and she did not recognize anyone there.
Gu Mohan’s low and irresistible voice was laced with tenderness and adoration. “Very soon. Mo’er has to persevere for a while longer.”
Time went by, but Lu Jinwen was still nowhere to be seen.
It was already past the time that had been arranged beforehand.
The distinguished guests at the engagement banquet were flummoxed. At this point, Lu Yan whipped out his cell phone and dialed Lu Jinwen’s cell phone number.
The melodious sound of the cell phone ringtone rang once and the person on the other line picked up the phone. “Hello.”
It was not Lu Jinwen’s voice. It was… Lu Qi’er.
“Hello, Big Brother, I’m sorry, my father and I can’t attend your engagement banquet. We are now at the airport and we will be flying to Capital later,” Lu Qi’er said.
Lu Qi’er and Lu Jinwen were at the airport and they would be flying off soon.
Gu Mohan overheard Lu Qi’er’s voice, which radiated faint excitement and happiness. As long as she flew away, there would not be any more worries.
Gu Mohan arched his good-looking eyebrows and his thin lips curved into a derisive smile.
“Understood.” Lu Yan promptly hung up the phone.
Lu Jinwen was unable to attend the engagement banquet.
“Master Yan, can we commence the banquet now?” Someone else came over to ask. It was almost past the auspicious time.
Lu Yan’s Adam apple bobbed and his muscular torso became increasingly numb. The aphrodisiac scent on An’an was too strong and he found his heavy control threatening to shatter into nothingness.
