Passionate Devotion - Chapter 253
253 I hope you can be a femme fatale 2
“We clearly agreed on this. It hasn’t even been a week, how can your memory be so bad? Don’t be a scoundrel!” The look in Tong Lu’s eyes became even more accusatory.
“Is your reputation that important to you?” Leng Yejin sighed.
Tong Lu was a little angry from embarrassment. I’m just an ordinary person, and what I hate the most is third parties. My stepmother is a third party, and you don’t know how much I hate her for ruining my mother’s happiness. Do I have to turn myself into someone like my stepmother, someone that even I hate?”
!!
Leng Yejin looked at her from above and listened to her words. His gaze was deep and complicated. He caressed her aggrieved face and pondered for a long time. alright, I understand. I’ll think about it.
“Since you understand, then hurry up and leave!”
Leng Yejin furrowed his eyebrows. He explained, ” I haven’t thought it through yet. Besides, I didn’t even consider this when I said I would.
“Then what do you need to consider?
think about your situation, think about your pride, think about how you won’t leave home, think about what I should do to you Yingluo, or rather what kind of identity I should give you, an identity that will never let anyone have a reason to hurt you again, Yingluo.
Leng Yejin seemed to be deep in thought. He was really thinking.”I need to think about it calmly. Before that, I don’t want to make any decisions that will deviate from my original plan and control. Of course, if you insist on being a femme fatale, I don’t mind you turning into a Vixen right now to mess up my rationality so that I won’t have the time to calm down and deal with the problem rationally.”
Tong Lu stared at him, lost in thought. She did not understand what he was saying, but she seemed to understand a little. She was not stupid, but she did not dare to probe further.
“I hope that you’ll be a femme fatale!” Leng Yejin raised his eyebrows and gave her an encouraging look.
Tong Lu shook her head. Her mind was in a mess. no, don’t be like this. Femme fatale has a short life. Since ancient times, no one has had a good life or a bad life. You should leave quickly.
She didn’t want to be bewitched. This man had always had the ability to easily dissolve other people’s iron-clad determination.
If he were to become a general, there would definitely be no city in the world that he could not conquer!
“Don’t belittle yourself, you’re not the third party. As for you and my brother, you haven’t even met each other. There’s nothing between you two, the man who slept with you was me! The one who stole your man was Xu Ke! Remember these words in your heart!”
His words were like a spell that struck her heart. If she was really afraid of him, how could he not say it? She really wanted to calm down!
However, he did not give her a chance to calm down at all. His kisses moved down, past her cheek, and the tip of her nose. His deep eyes stared at her resisting eyes and stared at her. you’re the only woman I’ve been serious about in the past 28 years!
Was she really the only one? Tong Lu’s heart fluttered again and again. She could not handle it anymore, and her heart was in turmoil.
If he continued to stare at her, she was really afraid that the firewall in her heart would collapse in an instant, and she would lose all the perseverance and effort she had put in these days.
Tong Lu had no choice but to shut her eyes and surrender. “Don’t look at me like that anymore. I’m begging you, Leng Yejin. It’s getting late. Can you go back first?”
Leng Yejin suddenly stood up and strode out of the room.
Tong Lu finally heaved a sigh of relief. She thought that he had just granted her a general pardon. To her surprise, he merely went to close the door and strode back in the blink of an eye.
“What are you doing?” Tong Lu’s heart skipped a beat.
Leng Yejin rolled his eyes at her. I’m coming for dinner tomorrow night, and I’ll make something I like.”
“Let’s talk about it again.” Tong Lu replied with two words. The passion in her eyes was still burning.
Leng Yejin chuckled. I’ll think about what I’ve just said. But before that, I hope you can tell me how much you like me. Otherwise, I won’t fight a meaningless battle.
After he finished speaking, he chuckled and stroked her hair.”I’m leaving. I need time to figure out how much I like you. Let’s think about it.”
This time, he really left. Before he left, he even helped her check the door and windows, and locked them.
Tong Lu threw herself onto the couch in a terrible state. She was vexed.’How dare he expect me to cook for him?’
She must make him a vegetarian banquet!
The next day, after work, Tong Lu went to the supermarket near her apartment. She only bought vegetables and fruits. She did not buy any minced meat.
Tong Lu paid the bill and left the supermarket with the two large plastic bags in her hands. The supermarket was not far from her apartment. She only had to walk for about ten minutes. Halfway there, the phone in her pocket suddenly rang.
She picked up the call. She didn’t expect it to be the old lady. She had a vague guess.
everyone at home heard about what happened yesterday. I didn’t expect your family to be so vicious. Fortunately, you and Shanshan are both fine. Now that you’re living outside, you have to be careful when you go in and out. You can’t be careless.
okay, I’ll be careful. Thank you for your concern, grandma.
“Are you used to living alone outside?”
“It’s fine. We’ve actually been through this all these years.”
The old lady muttered, ” I knew you were a sensible child when you thought of moving out to avoid suspicion. Xu Jing is usually very sensible, but this time, he really did not do much. It’s only right to teach him a lesson, but grandma still hopes that you can get along peacefully. You’ll be a family in the future, and you still have a long time.
Tong Lu pursed her lips. She did not know what to say. No matter how long they had been together, she was afraid that she would not be able to get along with Xu Jing. She had offended Xu Jing from the very beginning, and Xu Jing probably hated her to the core now.
“That girl has also suffered. She knelt in that unlucky place for an entire day and is still running a high fever from fear. I’ve seen Shanshan’s Weibo, and there’s indeed something wrong with the information. It’s no wonder that girl is jealous. In the future, you have to be more careful in your behavior and handling things. Men may think that these small details are nothing, but as a woman, you have to be more careful. Otherwise, you’ll attract criticism if you make a mistake.”
Tong Lu did not know what to feel when she heard that. Her face burned. “Grandma, I’ll be more careful in the future.”
“Good girl.” The old lady paused for a moment before she continued,”Grandma is also a woman and was once young. It’s inevitable for young people to be impulsive. If there’s nothing, just take it that grandma talked too much today.”But if there’s anything, I really hope that you can get out of it as soon as possible and not fall into it. Once you fall into a relationship, it’s hard to extricate yourself, and you’ll only bring trouble to yourself. I really think that you’re a good girl, so I don’t want you to do anything wrong, take the wrong path, and in the end, you’ll be the one suffering.”
When the old lady finished speaking, Tong Lu suddenly felt that the two plastic bags were very heavy. She could not even lift them. She was so hot with the long sleeves on, but when the night breeze brushed against her face, she felt a chill that seeped into her bones.
Tong Lu walked to the front of her apartment building. There were a lot of luxury cars lined up in a row. She pursed her lips, and the feeling in her heart was indescribable.
Secretary Yu saw the plastic bag she was carrying and stepped forward to help her. “Miss Tong, shall I help you carry it?”
“No, thank you.”
She did not see Leng Yejin and Shanshan. They should be upstairs already. As expected, Leng Yejin was sitting in the living room with his long legs crossed on the coffee table. He was holding a magazine in his hand and flipping through it casually. Shanshan was watching a cartoon next to him. When she saw her, she immediately jumped off the sofa.”Dad, didn’t I say that mom is back?”
Leng Yejin put down the magazine in his hand. “Why did you only come back now?”
I strolled around the Super City for a while. Have a seat. I’ll go cook. Tong Lu avoided direct communication and entered the kitchen with the plastic bag. She washed and cooked the vegetables alone. She felt very upset and upset.
