Chapter 378: Miss Lu’s Lover
“Brother Qin, it’s you!”
He Lai patted his chest and spoke fearfully.
“Uncle, why are you here?”
Lu Ran patted the snow off his body and asked softly.
“Oh, I couldn’t sleep, so I wanted to borrow a book from you to read.”
After speaking, He Qin asked suspiciously, “Why aren’t the two of you staying in the room in the middle of the night? Why are you lying on the snow?”
“Shush!”
He Lai gestured for him to keep quiet. After scanning his surroundings, he lowered his voice and said, “There seems to be a thief in the house!”
“A thief?”
He Qin was shocked. “Where’s the thief?”
“Oh, Brother Qin, be quiet!”
He Lai shrunk his neck in fear and hurriedly covered He Qin’s mouth. He said in a low voice, “That thief can fly. He must have martial arts. What if you attract him with your loud screams?”
He was only twenty-two years old and was still searching for his wife. He did not want to die just like that.
He Qin nodded and removed his hand. He asked softly, “Where’s the thief?”
Lu Ran said, “He went to Ah Sheng’s place. Uncle Lai and I were about to go over and take a look.”
“What?!”
He Qin was shocked. “Then, shouldn’t we go quickly? What if that thief sees Xiao Sheng’s face and harbors malicious thoughts?”
“Don’t be afraid!”
Lu Ran said in a low voice, “Ah Sheng knows martial arts. She should be able to handle it.”
“We still have to go over and take a look. What if that thief’s skills are better than Xiao Sheng’s?”
After speaking, He Qin ignored the both of them and ran towards the inner courtyard.
When He Lai and Lu Ran saw this, they hurried after him.
At this time, the ‘thief’ had accurately found Lu Sheng’s courtyard and even her room.
Lu Sheng had just taken off her coat and was about to return to bed.
Someone suddenly knocked on the door.
“Who’s that?”
She asked suspiciously, but there was no sound outside the door.
She frowned and asked, “Who’s outside?”
She heard a low laugh from outside the door. Then, someone replied, “It’s Miss Lu’s lover.”
Lu Sheng was speechless.
She could identify this voice even if it turned to ashes.
She hurriedly put on her coat and went forward to open the door.
When the door opened, that person had already reached out and carried her up.
“What are you doing?”
Lu Sheng exclaimed in surprise at the unexpected princess hug.
Chu Sihan closed the door with his foot and carried her into the bedroom. Then, he placed her on the couch.
“Why aren’t the lights off yet? Are you waiting for me?”
He placed his hands on the couch and hovered above her. He looked down at her, a teasing smile on his thin lips.
“Get up first.”
Lu Sheng nudged him lightly but did not push him away. Instead, she let him get closer.
Chu Sihan clicked his tongue lightly and traced her eyebrows with one hand. He said in a low and hoarse voice, “If you don’t give me a satisfactory answer, I’ll…”
Lu Sheng raised her eyebrows and asked provocatively, “You’ll what?”
“I’ll…”
He only spoke one word before his lips pressed against hers.
“Oh—”
Lu Sheng’s eyes widened and she glared at him angrily.
Chu Sihan moved his lips away and said softly, “I’ll kiss you.”
“But you haven’t made yourself clear. You’re cheating!”
Lu Sheng pushed him away forcefully and snorted coldly.
Chu Sihan, who was pushed away, was not angry. Instead, he laughed heartily.
Lu Sheng rolled her eyes at him. “Why are you here at this hour?”
“Don’t you know why I’m here?”
As he spoke, he lay down beside her.
Lu Sheng was at a loss for words. Her face turned red.
Chu Sihan’s eyes darkened and he reached out to hook her chin. Just as he lowered his head, he suddenly heard an intense knocking on the door.
