Chapter 255: For You
Lu Shuangyue's sudden outburst scared Yuan Wenkang so much that he didn't dare to breathe. Seeing the frightened Yuan Wenkang rendered speechless, Lu Shuangyue continued, "Yuan Wenkang, don't think for a second I don't know about that mess you made in Jingdu!
"I simply chose to ignore you. But if you continue to harass me, don't blame me for being rude and exposing all of your dirty secrets! I'd love to see if the Yuan Family still has a place for you then!"
After saying this, Lu Shuangyue picked up her keys and tossed them directly to Liu Ergou.
"Er Gou, from now on, my home is your home. You can come over whenever you want and stay however you like! If you find my house comfortable, just grab your things and move in. You can be the master of this villa!"
Standing to the side, Liu Ergou heard her words and knew she was serious. She had been tormented by Yuan Wenkang for so long, fleeing from Jingdu to this remote, backwater place, only for him to follow.
Anyone else would have had a mental breakdown long ago; it was a testament to Lu Shuangyue's resilience that she hadn't.
However, Liu Ergou thought for a moment and decided it was better to clear things up. He took the keys, just as he was about to explain.
Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Shuangyue stood up, walked over to Liu Ergou, rose onto her tiptoes, and kissed him squarely on the lips.
The kiss left Liu Ergou stunned and completely at a loss.
I never expected her to pull a move like this. It was so sudden... no, more than sudden—I wasn't prepared for it at all!
Yuan Wenkang, watching from the side, looked as if his eyes were about to pop from their sockets! The woman he desired was kissing another man right in front of him. What's more, they were kissing on the lips! This was more than any man could bear.
"FUCK!" Yuan Wenkang roared. Raising his fist, he charged at Liu Ergou, ready to fight to the death.
Seeing Yuan Wenkang's charge, Liu Ergou couldn't help but sneer.
With that puny build, I'm afraid one punch would kill him. For him to try and fight me to the death... he's grossly overestimating his own strength. But with Lu Shuangyue still in my arms, I have to be careful not to hurt her.
With that in mind, Liu Ergou lifted his foot and kicked viciously at Yuan Wenkang's chest. He only used about thirty percent of his strength. Yet, even at thirty percent, the force was more than Yuan Wenkang could handle.
Struck by the kick, Yuan Wenkang flew backward and slammed into the door.
BANG!
His face contorted in agony as he collided with the door. At that moment, he wanted nothing more than to tear Liu Ergou limb from limb, but he knew he was no match for him. All he could do was point a trembling finger and spit threats.
"You two dogs! Just you wait! This isn't over! I'll get you for this!"
Hearing this, Liu Ergou's brow furrowed. Yuan Wenkang must have been blinded by rage, lashing out at anyone and everyone. He even cursed Lu Shuangyue! In that case, there was no need to be polite anymore. Today, he would teach him a harsh lesson and show him that some people should not be provoked.
Just as Liu Ergou was about to rush out and finish dealing with Yuan Wenkang, he was gently stopped by Lu Shuangyue. He then saw her lightly shake her head. Liu Ergou immediately understood her meaning and stopped in his tracks.
Taking the opportunity, Yuan Wenkang scrambled up from the floor and fled.
Watching him run, Liu Ergou snorted coldly but didn't give chase. Out of respect for Lu Shuangyue's wishes, he let him go.
As Yuan Wenkang disappeared, Lu Shuangyue let out a long sigh. Then, she turned to Liu Ergou with a serious expression.
"Er Gou, I need to tell you something."
Hearing her, Liu Ergou immediately turned to face her. "What is it, Shuang Yue? Just tell me."
Looking at Liu Ergou, a bitter smile touched Lu Shuangyue's lips. "Er Gou, you have to treat my little aunt well from now on. She's over thirty this year, but she's never even been in a relationship. You can't lead her on and then abandon her! If you dare, I will never let you off the hook!"
Liu Ergou gazed at Lu Shuangyue in utter bewilderment.
Great, now she's gotten the wrong idea. Since when was I interested in Lu Xiaoyu?
Thinking this, he hurriedly explained, "Shuang Yue, you've got it all wrong. Your little aunt and I only met by chance, and we only got a hotel room because she had a sudden medical episode, not to sleep together! As for the video, I had just finished treating her when she had to leave for something urgent. She asked me to return the keys to you, but she was worried I might use them to do something bad! One thing led to another and we ended up arguing. It's not what you think at all! Do you understand?"
After listening to Liu Ergou's explanation, a flash of surprise appeared in Lu Shuangyue's eyes.
So, I was overthinking it from the very beginning.
She wasn't the least bit worried he was lying. He wouldn't lie unless he was a fool. She could find out everything with a single call to her little aunt. At that point, no matter how flowery his words were, it would be useless.
With this thought, Lu Shuangyue couldn't resist throwing herself into Liu Ergou's arms.
"Hmph! So that's what happened. Why didn't you tell me sooner!" Lu Shuangyue grumbled from his embrace.
Liu Ergou smiled helplessly. Great. So in the end, it's all my fault.
However, he didn't argue. He knew she wasn't truly blaming him; she was just venting.
Looking at Lu Shuangyue in his arms, he was about to pat her on the shoulder when the keys in his hand jangled. Only then did he remember he was still holding them. He quickly offered the keys back to her.
But to his surprise, after Lu Shuangyue took the keys, she didn't put them in her pocket. Instead, she pushed them back into his hand.
This left Liu Ergou baffled, unable to immediately grasp her intention. Seeing his confused expression, Lu Shuangyue blushed and said, "I'm giving you the keys. From now on, you can come to my house whenever you want!"
Hearing this, Liu Ergou stared at her in astonishment. Had she said that by mistake?
