Chapter 194: Devastating Criticism
“Didn’t you approach Young Master Lu with the intentions in your heart? Now Young Master Lu has arrived. Haha, Ning Qing, you have always been like this. You have been seducing men nonstop. Xu Junxi, Mu Yunfan… They were entirely willing to serve you, even if they had to give up their lives for you, they would have no grievances and would not regret. You are just a shameless vixen, and specifically seduce men to for your own entertainment.” The room was quiet, and only Lu Shaoming and Ning Qing were left looking at each other. Lin Xuemei’s words were especially hard to hear. Ning Qing’s heart sank and Lu Shaoming had lost his memories. Would he believe what Lin Xuemei said just now?”
“Young Master Lu.” Ning Qing went on her heels to approach him, wanting to explain the situation. But Lu Shaoming turned around and left the room in a flash. Ning Qing knew things were amiss and she hurriedly ran over.
“Young Master Lu, listen to me explain. Lin Xuemei hates me, her words were obviously with malicious intent. She said them on purpose for you to hear. She wanted you to misunderstand me. Don’t make her plan succeed.”
Lu Shaoming did not have surprise on his face. His eyebrows did not even twitch. His elegant and classy lips curled up into a smile and he asked plainly, “Miss Ning, why does Lin Xuemei hate you?”
“That is because she likes Mu Yunfan. But Mu Yunfan…” Likes me.
“Huh, then what about Xu Junxi then? Who is he to you?”
Ning Qing: “…”
Lu Shaoming walked in front of the lift. He used his hand to press the button and he suddenly turned his head around to look at Ning Qing. His cold eyes did not have any warmth in them, “Miss Ning, what is my position?”
“What?” Ning Qing was shocked. He actually asked this question.
Ding! The elevator doors opened. Lu Shaoming lifted his foot and walked in. Ning Qing quickly followed in his footsteps and the doors shut close. Ning Qing’s heart was in a total mess. She knew that Lu Shaoming did in fact take to heart what Lin Xuemei said.
He was originally such a cold and classy man. His personal life was transparent and clean, and he would naturally not favor women who had messy lives. But, she was not one of them! How should she answer his questions? Strictly speaking, he would be her second man? She knew that even if she said “First”, he still wouldn’t be happy.
Ning Qing bit down on her lips, stretched out her hand, and grabbed his large palm that was hanging by his side. She shook it like a young teen girl and was coy when she said, “Young Master Lu, don’t be angry. I am not that type of woman. Do you have time now? We can have a chat now, I can tell you what happened in the past”
That man curled his lips into a sarcastic smile and said, “Why, Miss Ning also does this to other men? You would hold his hand or act cutely when there is nothing or welcome him into your embrace?” Ning Qing was insulted by him. She let go of his hand and looked at him with hurt in her eyes. “Don’t say it like this. You should know that I am not…don’t think I have forgiven you for the things that happened this morning. You have been misunderstanding….me nonstop. My heart also…” Lu Shaoming’s handsome figure froze and at this moment. Ding! The elevator arrived, and the doors of the lift opened automatically, but neither of them walked out.
There were people waiting outside the elevator. They wanted to board, but when they looked at the cold atmosphere surrounding the handsome man in front of them, they noticed he was looking deeply at everyone with a hawk’s gaze, and he seemed to be as strong as a mountain. The people who were about to enter the elevator froze in their steps, and what followed next was, “Hehe.” They instinctively took a step backwards and said, “We will wait for the next lift.”
After keeping silent for 3 seconds, Lu Shaoming turned around, and he took a step forward to get close to Ning Qing. Ning Qing did expect that he would suddenly come close, and she took a step backwards. Her soft back was leaning against the wall. Pa! The man planted a palm on the lift and cupped her into his embrace. She was against the wall. Ning Qing’s small nose was a little red. In her line of sight was his white shirt that did not have a tie. She used her small white hand to pinch his shirt at his waist feeling wronged. “Lu Shaoming, I like you, I only like you solely…”
Lu Shaoming looked at her youthful skin that was as smooth as an egg white and asked, “Why do you like me? I think you have liked me since the time in America?”
Ning Qing hesitated for a while and said in a coy tone, “Liking a person is liking a person. What reason could there be?” Lu Shaoming sneered in his heart. He stretched out his two fingers to pinch her small chin. The calloused thumbs slowly brushed against the arc of her beautiful red lips. Ning Qing’s legs went soft. The clear and crisp scent on his body flooded her senses, and an electrifying numbness came upon her lips.
“Lu Shaoming.” Ning Qing was soft in his embrace. She used her hand to inch her way up and tugged on the shirt in front of his chest. Her butterfly like lashes fluttered madly. She wanted him to kiss her. The man did not come to kiss her. With a cold, insulting tone and the provocation of a mature man, he said, “Has any man kissed you before?” Ning Qing opened her eyes suddenly and her body froze up.
She looked at him. He did not have a sliver of emotions in his eyes, rather, they were full of insult. He came beside her ear and asked slowly, “Have you slept with a man?” Ning Qing felt as if a cold bucket of ice water came pouring down on her head, and she suddenly realized a serious problem. That was a fatal loophole in the three month contract between her and Song Yajing. She could not divulge information about their marital status within the three month window, but without divulging information about their marital status, it would be a lie to say that her body hasn’t had a man before.
Maybe Song Yajing had long foreseen this. She did not have any big moves to play, and she had allowed her to be close to Lu Shaoming, but Song Yajing knew early on that this would be the biggest problem between her and Lu Shaoming. Or maybe Song Yajjing would use this point to kick up a big fuss… What should she do? Should she go to the hospital for reconstruction surgery?
Lu Shaoming looked at the panic in the girl’s eyes. He already had the answer. His eyes were cold and dark. His chest started to palpitate, and he was always proud of his control, but now, it was all gone. Once he started to think that she was previously having happy times underneath another man, he was jealous and felt as though he were on fire.
He suddenly withdrew his body and laughed coldly. “Miss Ning, where do you get your confidence from? How do you think that I, Lu Shaoming, would fall in love with a woman who has slept with another man?” This was probably the harshest thing he had ever said to her. Ning Qing’s eyes violently contracted, and she forgot to react while she was in a blur.
At this moment, the doors opened again. Ding! Lu Shaoming lifted his legs and stepped out. But his hand was grabbed onto by a gentle and frail little hand. With red eyes and in a low voice, the girl said, “Lu Shaoming, if I said that the man who I slept with is you, would you believe me?” Lu Shaoming froze, and he turned his head around and his gaze collided with her tear filled eyes. The insult in his eyes became more apparent, and he violently shook off her small hand and scanned her body from head to toe.
“Miss Ning, what do you mean with your words? Why? I have exposed you and you have no way out of this. How can you say… How did I sleep with you, you…”
“Do I need to teach you how you slept with me?” Ning Qing’s eyes were filled with tears that were rolling down quietly but stubbornly. She interrupted his words and turned the tables to provoke him by saying, “Young Master Lu, there is a hotel room just above us. Do you want to refresh, to see if you did or did not sleep with me before?”
Lu Shaoming withdrew his gaze and said, “Despicable beyond words!”
He lifted his heels and left.
…
Looking at that man leave, Ning Qing then knew that she acted overly emotional. He really left, and he really did not want to bother with her anymore. What she was going to do?
Look, he did not have any memories. She knew that even if she took the risk and told him, he would not believe her. Maybe the only thing she could do was to throw the marriage certificate in front of him, only then he would believe. But, could she do so?
If she threw the marriage certificate in front of him, it would be a declaration of war with Song Yajing. Ning Qing looked at the man walk out of the hotel door in a daze. She regained her senses and went chasing after him.
She stood at the hotel doors looking at Lu Shaoming board the Bentley. He steered the steering wheel and the car went onto the road. Ning Qing suddenly thought of the 5th day of the lunar year. She had brought him to the airport. At that time, she saw his handsome back profile disappear bit by bit from her sight. After that, she always thought that if she would have followed him to England at that time, they would not have ended up like this; he would not have forgotten her, and she would not have lost him.
Could she look at him leave before her own two eyes?
No!
She couldn’t allow him to disappear before her eyes again!
“Lu Shaoming, don’t go!” Ning Qing shrieked at the top of her lungs, and she rushed into the sea of people.
…
Lu Shaoming looked through the rear view mirror. The girl was chasing after his car. At that time, there were many pedestrians and cars on the street, she did not bother and ran after furiously, attracting the attention of many others. Everyone was pointing and discussing her actions, and they viewed her in a new light.
The night wind was especially cold in spring. She was running too fast. The cold wind was like a knife stabbing through her thin shirt, and her hair was sprawled all over. She was running fast while shedding tears as she chased after him. She was saying something, from the movement of her lips, he could guess that she was calling out his name – Lu Shaoming…
Calling after him again and again.
Chasing him with every step.
But, what was she chasing him for? She was so dirty. She had a man before him and still wanted to have him. She should let it go! She could not say the reason she likes him. What about not needing a reason? It was all lies. She was searching for a shadow on him. Did he look very similar to a man she had before? Did that make her come to make a mess for him?!
Xu Junxi, Mu Yunfan..Who were these men? She was so beautiful and smart; of course it was possible for men to like her. He would not believe what Lin Xuemei said about her being a vixen. But she didn’t she know how reflect upon herself, why was she acting ostentatiously? Even Zhu Rui had good feelings towards her.
He did not like that so many men liked her!
He also knew that the words he said in the elevator were a little harsh, but he could not control himself. His gentlemanly demeanor had escaped him.
Ah, he slept with her before?
How come he didn’t know of this?
Ridiculous!
Lu Shaoming stepped on the accelerator.
…
Ning Qing looked at the Bentley go further and further away from her with her own two eyes until it disappeared among other cars. Her heart felt a touch of despair. If she did not chase after Lu Shaoming left today, would she still have a chance to meet him again?
“Lu Shaoming, oh, Shaoming…” Ning Qing cried until she could not catch her breath. What she was going to do?
At this moment, a motorcycle came towards her. The motorcycle was speeding and was going to crash directly into her shoulder. “Girl, be careful!” A kind hearted auntie grabbed onto her and the motorcycle stopped 1 cm away from her. “Girl, are you okay? Quick check if you got hit …Ay!” The auntie’s hands slipped, and Ning Qing collapsed entirely onto the ground.
