Chapter 345 – I love you. I will never leave you. (3)
Ye Zhen frowned and rambled with a bitter look, “I know all about it. You like her. You were… strongly attracted to her. You are even going to divorce me for her!” She sniffled. “My poor Zhouzhou. He is about to be a fatherless child…”
Ye Zhen started crying at this point. She felt very wronged, and she raised her voice. “You want to divorce me for her!”
She was being completely unreasonable.
Ye Zhen’s matter-of-fact attitude made Lu Beichuan laugh.
The car moved along smoothly. The chauffeur and the assistant in the passenger seat shuddered. The chauffeur silently raised the center board, blocking off the back seat from the front. The two exchanged a look and dared not make a sound.
As though being treated unfairly, Ye Zhen pointed at where his heart was in his chest, “You say to me now, wholeheartedly, that you love and that you will love me forever. You will never leave me! Say it! If you don’t say it… then you have been lying to me all along!”
Lu Beichuan held Ye Zhen in his arms dotingly and whispered into her ears. “It’s you. It has always been you. It was you that made me lose my mind…” Lu Beichuan paused for a second, then carried on, “I love you. I will never leave you.”
This was the first time Lu Beichuan had professed his love to her.
He knew that Ye Zhen would not remember any of these by the next day so he could say anything. He could say all of the words that he did not dare to say out aloud in the past and had been cooped up inside of him.
“I love you, Ye Zhen. Nobody loves you more than I do in this world. As long as you stay with me and never leave me, then I will never leave you.”
His words made Ye Zhen smile contently. She leaned up against Lu Beichuan’s chest and mumbled in her drunken way, “Mmm… I love you too, always and forever…”
The corners of Lu Beichuan’s lips curved upward slightly, and he placed his chin on the top of her head. He kissed her and felt very reassured.
They soon arrived at home. Lu Beichuan carried Ye Zhen out of the car. Mother Lu, seeing how drunk Ye Zhen was, quickly asked Nanny Yue to make some soup that would counter the effects of alcohol.
“This… Why did she drink so much?”
“The production team’s celebratory dinner. She had a little bit too much to drink,” explained Lu Beichuan.
“Bring her back to the room quickly and help wipe her down.”
Lu Beichuan nodded and carried Ye Zhen toward the bedroom.
After being placed on bed, Ye Zhen felt her stomach roiling. She struggled to open up her eyes and looked around. Then, with her hand over her mouth, she stumbled into the bathroom and puked her lungs out.
Lu Beichuan rubbed her back and gave her water to rinse her mouth out. He carefully helped her lay down on the bed and brought over warm water and a towel to help her clean up.
The lukewarm towel felt cool on Ye Zhen’s burning skin. It felt oddly comfortable.
Ye Zhen looked through her squinting eyes at Lu Beichuan, who was wiping down her body. His impeccable face enlarged and enlarged some more in front of her eyes, and her body which was burning up made her heart beat faster. She grabbed Lu Beichuan’s arm. Her mouth dried, and her heart pounded.
Ye Zhen’s brain was foggy but a very clear idea flashed through her mind.
Losing self-control after having alcohol.
So what?
She didn’t care anymore.
She became very strong all of a sudden. She yanked Lu Beichuan onto the bed and rolled on top of him. Sitting over Lu Beichuan’s waist, she looked at him from above. Pulling off her own clothes irritably, she leaned down and kissed Lu Beichuan on his lip.
Mother Lu was bringing over the hangover soup. She had just pushed over a crack on the door when she heard the ruckus from inside the room.
Startled, Mother Lu quickly backed up and closed the door.
Zhouzhou, standing behind her, asked baffled, “Grandma, why aren’t you going inside?”
Smiling, Mother Lu took Zhouzhou by his hand and headed downstairs with him. “Didn’t Zhouzhou say he would like a little brother or sister? You are about to have one soon.”
