CHAPTER 528: CHAPTER 528: JUST LOVE ME OBEDIENTLY 6

Huo Jincheng held her, letting her lean into his embrace, looking at her gently as if she were a rare treasure.

Lu Xingzhi swung her feet, "Then I should be even more grateful. After all, when I met you, I was only eighteen, and it’s normal not to like someone else. But you, at twenty-seven, still didn’t fall for anyone else."

"Then you must cherish me! Always like me." Huo Jincheng said.

"Alright!"

Lu Xingzhi thought of Luo Wanxu, she quite admired her, and she was also very good-looking.

"Uncle, I think Xuxu probably doesn’t dare to like Edmond either! So, she never got attached from the start. Well, although Edmond is a good man, his family is quite complicated. Xuxu shouldn’t live that kind of life."

After all, it’s been tough these past twenty-some years. The future should be relaxed and happy.

Lu Xingzhi isn’t the kind of person who likes meddling, nor is she curious. But, after all, Edmond is considered her friend now.

Moreover, she feels a kind of sympathy for girls like Luo Wanxu.

Being able to think about these things from her perspective.

"So, Zhi Zhi, were you thinking the same way at the beginning? From the start, you weren’t planning to be with me long-term." Huo Jincheng remembered back to when he first met her after hearing what Lu Xingzhi said.

She didn’t trust him, didn’t see him as family.

She was also very guarded.

"Yeah! When I first met you, I wasn’t familiar with you. Even if you were my fiancé, I couldn’t have feelings for you right away. Besides, I didn’t know you, and I was afraid of trouble. I was afraid of troubling others, and afraid others would trouble me."

Lu Xingzhi now doesn’t mind being honest with Huo Jincheng.

"Zhi Zhi, it’s late." Huo Jincheng suddenly said.

"No, no... whenever you say this, I feel it’s some kind of signal. Please stop saying it." Lu Xingzhi now regrets having dismantled the other room.

Otherwise, she could have slept separately from him.

Huo Jincheng didn’t feel awkward even when teased, "Really? Since you understand, I won’t hide it anymore. Zhi Zhi, do you prefer this room or the living room?"

"I want to take a shower first."

"Okay."

Huo Jincheng nodded, "The bathroom is nicely decorated too. It’s quite spacious, and the bathtub is big enough for two people."

Lu Xingzhi: "..."

Please stop saying it.

Her eyes fluttered, she said, "Uncle, I’m not feeling well today. I’ve played the piano for a long time and I’m tired."

"I know, don’t move. I’ll take care of you. Go take a shower!"

Lu Xingzhi didn’t want to talk anymore.

--

Lu Xingzhi arrived at the rehearsal room the next day, a little late.

Huo Jincheng came with her today; after all, there’s a performance tomorrow, and he came over to invite them to dinner beforehand.

"Edmond, long time no see." Huo Jincheng greeted Edmond proactively.

"Olston, Lu Lu told me you came over yesterday. Oh! Is this what they call absence makes the heart grow fonder? No, what was that idiom? I can’t recall right now. That’s not important, welcome here."

Edmond struggled for a while but couldn’t recall the term, so he simply dropped it.

"It’s like one day apart feels like three years." Huo Jincheng supplied the phrase; that’s how he truly felt.
