Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 53

"When I count to ten, remaining silence is the default." Luke raises his eyes and looks at the little woman who is still struggling. He has a funny look on his face and suddenly he wants to tease her,

“……”

"One, two… Ten. "Looking at Jenny’s disillusioned look, Luke smiled and jumps from two to ten,

"That's not how you count?"

Jenny makes angry noise, "what about the numbers in the middle?"

"I only said, count to ten, but I didn't say what should be in the middle."

"Hey..."

"Go take a bath. It's too late. I'm ready to go to bed."

Luke takes a deep look at her, with meaningful eyes.

"You haven't said your third condition yet."

"Not hurry. Let's talk about it later when I think of it."

Cunning!

Jenny can only think of this word to describe him now. After that, who knows what will happen in the future.

But that's good. The first two have already shocked her. Now it's better not to say the third one to keep her calm down slowly.

"I… I'll go then. Good night. "

Jenny glances at the undulating chest, swallows her saliva and about to walks towards the door

"Just shower here."

There is an unquestionable command behind her.

"No need, my pajamas are not here. I'll come after I finish shower." Jenny smiles and moves toward the door.

"No need, your Pajama, Lily has already moved here. I've made a space in the closet for you."

The two words are particularly heavy, as if they are implying something.

Jenny’s smile froze on her face. She cannot stay nor leave.

What should she do?

Luke suddenly stands up, approaches her slowly step by step, just like his tone, like poison, slightly delayed Jenny’s sensitive nerves.

"If Mrs. Lu needs my help to take a bath, I'd be happy to do so."

Looking at that chest about to get close to Jenny’s face, and her waist is about to hit the doorplate. Jenny suddenly pushes aside the obstacles in front of her and rushes into the bathroom, leaving a sentence echoing in the bedroom.

"That’s kind of you. Both my hands and feet are working fine. Don't need to bother President Lu."

The lamb to be slaughtered in front of him runs away. Luke lowers his head, glanced over the two palm marks on his bare chest that have not yet been dissipated, and suddenly he feels some part of his body is burning.

This little wild cat that grinds him, he can't wait for it.

If it wasn't for George who said that women should be treated respectfully and can't be go in a rush, he really didn't have so much patience to wait for her.

Jenny rushes into the bathroom at one breath, and in the middle of showering in the bathroom, she suddenly recalls that she didn't bring any clothes in at all. She closes her eyes and knocks on her forehead.

Fool, when can you do things carefully?

Luke isn’t asleep yet. He feels the door of the bathroom opened and his eyes slightly open. He watches the little woman wrapped in a huge bath towel, sneakily opens the closet and looks for her pajamas. After finding the pajamas, whether she is complacent or not, the bath towel falls to her waist and shows her white skin tone and smooth back.

She squats down and covers her mouth. She slowly turns around and peeps at the man on the bed. She sees a book on his chest with his eyes closed as if he is sleeping. She takes a sigh of relief and sneakily walks back to the bathroom with her clothes in her arms.

The moment when the bathroom door closed, the man on the bed opens his eyes slowly. There is no sign of smiling in his eyes. The bruise on her back just appears in his mind, and he recalls what happened in the afternoon.

Suddenly he feels bad.

The sound of the water running in the bathroom stopped. Jenny thought no one finds out what she did. So, she comes out in a set of bear pajamas and looks at the man in bed. After a while of hesitation, she carefully takes the book off his chest and puts it on the top of bed.

Then she climbs onto the bed from the other side.

If he did not see her at the bedside in the morning, he could get angry again.

She breathes helplessly, opens a corner of the quilt, and shrinks herself in a bit.

Just about to lay down, her head has not touched the pillow yet. An arm goes through the gap between her back neck and the pillow, then holds her into his arms when she hasn't realized yet.

Jenny is stiff. "You… you haven't slept yet? "

A steady breath appears behind her, but no more response.

She hesitates for a moment, trying to move his hand away from her waist, but he is holding her really tight.

"Hey… you really asleep? Don't pretend to sleep and take advantages from me? "

She whispers, as if to herself, and stops struggling.

The dim yellow light reflects on the man's strong outline, the thick eyelashes on his closed eyes moves a little, the corners of his mouth curves a shallow arc, showing his rare tenderness.

...

At the moment, six hours across the ocean, it is still a sunny afternoon in France.

In a luxurious and magnificent private manor, the voice of women's reprimand comes out.

It's not loud and reasonable, but it makes a girl who seems like at her five or six age crying.

"Tia, it's not a matter of whether it's expensive or not. These two cups are grandpa's favorite and you just break them. The first thing to do is not to apologize to me, but to Grandpa."

The woman speaking is in her early twenties, with gentle eyebrows and eyes, she has small nose and lips, which is a typical Asian face, but her eyes are slightly deep, seems like she is mix, her eyes are full of water waves, her angel like face keeps a polite and alienated smile, and her words are filled with tenderness, not like scolding, but like an elder sister who gently admonishing her little sister.

But even so, the little girl called Tia not dares to raise her head,

"When your sister talks to you, Tia, you should say that you have heard, understood, or if you have any questions, you should ask."

"I understand." Tia's voice is so subtle that it's not even as loud as a mosquito's.

"Are you sure you understand?"

The woman's eyes sweep over the fireplace behind Tia. It is a picture of the old man in military uniform hanging above the fireplace, who looks kind-hearted and upright,

"Should you tell me if you understand it?"

"Elder sister, I truly, truly understand it..."

Tia sounds like she is about to cry.

When she raises her head, her face looks like a doll. This baby face is similar to the woman's face at some point, but it's filled with childish and innocence. The eyes are full of fear."

"Go ahead, Tia."

The woman's voice is still gentle, as if she is saying that you know you are wrong, then you can go ahead and play.

Tia's suddenly becomes stiff when hearing these words, and her bright eyes are filled with fear and despair, "No… don't… sister...... "

"Do you want me to repeat it again? Tia, that’s not good. "
