Chapter 248 A Little Interlude
Xia Lan's emotions had not been calmed down after being stimulated, so Lu He decided to take her home to rest for a day.
Zheng Mingxian took Shen Tong to meet the kidnapper under Zhao Jiacheng's command.
The group agreed to meet two days later.
Xia Lan had nightmares all night and huddled in Lu He's arms.
After a day, Lin Zhao's death was gradually forgotten.
The only ones who felt sorry for her were Xia Lan and Lu He.
Everyone else seemed to be outside the program's control, simply expressing regret without saying anything else.
Including Zheng Ming, the school's teachers and classmates, even the father of the Lin family and Lin Zhao's mother, it was all just a brief performance before it was quickly turned over.
The curtains in the house were drawn tightly, and Xia Lan was still curled up in bed. The sun was shining brightly outside, but Xia Lan didn't want to see the light.
She lay there in the darkness, her large, dark eyes wide open, lost in thought.
Lu He reached out and patted her head: "Get up and eat something, okay? It's already afternoon..."
Xia Lan didn't speak, but instead reached out and put her arms around Lu He's neck. She felt sad, sad that no one in the world cared about Lin Zhao.
She was also afraid, afraid that one day Lu He would also fall like this in front of her.
Seeing that her eyes were red again, Lu He quickly grabbed two tissues.
The room was gently enveloped by warm yellow light. Lu He leaned down and kissed Xia Lan on the forehead.
Lu He's fingers gently brushed against Xia Lan's hair, the delicate touch flowing like silk through his fingertips.
She lowered her head slightly, letting her steady and powerful breathing ring in Xia Lan's ear.
It seemed to be a silent comfort to her, assuring her that the two would never be apart.
Xia Lan's hands, which were behind Lu He's neck, gripped Lu He tightly, tightening their grip.
Lu He hesitated, then asked in surprise, "Xiao Lan? You want to..."
The next second, a gentle touch of lips, filled with endless longing, reflected Xia Lan's slightly flushed cheeks and deep affection in her eyes.
She changed her hand gesture and gently placed it on Lu He's shoulder.
"Are you... serious?" Lu He was afraid she had misunderstood. Just a second ago, Xia Lan's eyes were red from crying, but now...
Soon, their breaths mingled, hot and rapid, and Xia Lan's shifting gaze answered Lu He's question.
Now that it's confirmed, then... Lu He suddenly grabbed Xia Lan's wrists and pressed them hard onto the pillow.
“Baby…no…” Xia Lan stopped her from taking any further action.
"Hmm?" Lu He loosened her grip slightly and asked, "Did I hurt you?"
Xia Lan leaned forward slightly and whispered in Lu He's ear, "No, I... want to... vent..." her voice soft and shy.
"Huh?" Lu He was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head and smiled with a mixture of indulgence and helplessness. What could he do with his wife? He could only spoil her.
Lu He's initial strength weakened, and her loosened hand was instantly grabbed by Xia Lan as she stood up...
The dappled sunlight from outside the window still filtered through the curtains and fell softly onto the bed...
The events that have happened during this period, from Shen Tong to Lin Zhao, have left Xia Lan with too many unresolved feelings, a tightness in her chest that makes it hard for her to breathe.
That's why Xia Lan was exceptionally outgoing and wild today.
Lu He also witnessed the girl's formidable side and was "tortured" terribly.
Three hours later, Xia Lan let her go.
"I'll go make some food. Are you hungry?" Xia Lan nestled against Lu He, playing with the bridge of her nose.
"I'm starving... It was so tiring..." Lu He couldn't help but complain, feeling like she was about to die.
"Is your sister angry?" Xia Lan asked her with a mischievous smile.
Lu He pretended to be angry and pushed her out of bed: "Go cook! I'm so hungry, I haven't eaten all day~"
"Mmm~ I'll go cook right away~ Baby, lie down for a little longer~ You worked hard just now~" Xia Lan made a face at Lu He and ran out of the room.
Lu He struggled to sit up, supporting her lower back, feeling utterly helpless.
But then, at that untimely moment, the phone rang.
I glanced at the screen; it was Shen Tong.
Lu He picked up her phone, ready to answer, but then realized it was Xia Lan's phone.
Strange, why would Shen Tong call Xia Lan?
Should she answer or not? After hesitating for two seconds, she decisively answered the phone: "Hello?"
"Huh?" The person on the other end hesitated for a moment. "Isn't she here?"
"What do you want with her?" Lu He's voice was wary and slightly angry. Xia Lan's mental state was not good before, all thanks to this Shen Tong. It's really shameless of him to come looking for Xia Lan.
"...I want to apologize to her...I'm very sorry about what happened to Lin Zhao..." Shen Tong's tone was sincere and full of remorse.
Not knowing what was going on, Lu He was skeptical.
Perhaps it's because she still has a conscience?
If Lu He had known that Shen Tong was actually Shen Yutong, perhaps she wouldn't have harbored such fantasies.
"Can I let her answer the phone?" Shen Tong pleaded.
