Chapter 423 - Extra 4 - She felt that Lu Jue was trying to seduce her. (2)

The two were quite close to each other and Lu Jue could smell a hint of scent. It was the scent of Zhizhi.

In fact, he could feel warm breath landed on his forehead. Lu Jue’s lips curved upward slightly. He liked it when Zhizhi was close to him.

“Is that too tight?” Ning Zhi had finished tying the ribbon.

Lu Jue shook his head. It was darkness in front of his eyes and he could no longer see Zhizhi.

Ning Zhi waved her hand in front of Lu Jue and made sure that he really couldn’t see her. Now she could openly look at Lu Jue.

She looked from his very defined eyes and brows, to his tall nose, to his thin lips and his chin. She studied all of them carefully.

Lu Jue was handsome and, with the red ribbon over his eyes, he looked very restrained.

“Zhizhi.” Lu Jue could feel that Zhizhi was very close to him.

“I am here.”

“Zhizhi.”

“Yes.”

“Zhizhi.”

“Stop talking.” Ning Zhi scolded him.

Lu Jue stopped talked and lowered his head. A strand of his hair stuck up in the air, making him looked cute and pitiful. Nobody was allowed to be this cute.

That night, Lu Jue stayed and had dinner at the Ning’s again.

He stalled after dinner, not wanting to leave at all.

Ning Zhi could see the desire in Lu Jue’s eyes right away. He wanted to stay. “The butler will see you out.”

Lu Jue blinked. His pitch-black eyes were glued onto Ning Zhi. “See you tomorrow, Zhizhi.”

“Don’t come tomorrow.”

“Yes, come. Want see Zhizhi,” said Lu Jue stubbornly.

“Do you think I will let you in again tomorrow?” Ning Zhi threatened him meanly.

The bangs over Lu Jue’s forehead was slightly messy and it did not block the aggrievance in his eyes.

Zhizhi mean. Bullying him again.

Ning Zhi asked the butler the next morning when she was having breakfast. “Is Lu Jue outside already?”

The butler reported, “Miss, Mr. Lu is not here yet. I will keep an eye out and let you know as soon as he arrives.”

The butler had worked at the Ning’s for a long time and he knew Ning Zhi well. She would not have paid Lu Jue any attention at all if she didn’t like him.

He could tell that Ning Zhi already started wavering about Lu Jue. The fact that she had brought him up voluntarily meant she cared about him.

Ning Zhi went silent after she had learned from the butler that Lu Jue was not outside. Was he deterred by her words yesterday?

Over at the Lu’s.

Lu Jue had overslept today. He rushed down from upstairs and was about to head over to the Ning’s.

Lu Zhiyuan happened to show up.

“I heard from the chauffeur that you had been waiting outside the Ning’s for Ning Zhi lately?” He snickered. “She would never like you.

“Stop being an embarrassment for the Lu’s. You could stand until your legs break outside of the Lu’s and Ning Zhi still would not fall for an autistic individual like you.”

Lu Jue ignored Lu Zhiyuan completely and continued to walk outside on his long legs.

Ning Zhi finally learned that Lu Jue was already waiting outside from a servant. She had thought that he would not be coming.

Walking downstairs, she saw Lu Jue being brought in by a servant.

“Why are you here again?” Ning Zhi did not notice that her eyes lit up some when she saw Lu Jue.

“Want see Zhizhi.” Lu Jue apologized to her docilely. “I got up late and made Zhizhi wait.”

“I did not want for you!” Ning Zhi denied that immediately.

Lu Jue walked over to her. That was when Ning Zhi noticed that Lu Jue’s cheeks were abnormally red. “Are you hot?”

Lu Jue pinched his lips shut. He suddenly grabbed hold of Ning Zhi’s hand and placed it over his forehead. “Dizzy.”

Ning Zhi was shocked. She felt a high temperature. Lu Jue was running a fever.

“Have you taken any medication?”

“No,” replied Lu Jue docilely. Ning Zhi’s hand was chilled on his forehead and it felt good.
