Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 1002 - 999: You’ve Gone Too Far!

"Haven’t been sleeping well lately, can you move aside?"

Lu Jincheng glanced at her hand and saw she was holding something, his brow furrowed even deeper: "Planning to use this to cover up the dark circles?"

"Yes."

For some reason, Lu Jincheng suddenly reached out, snatched the item from her hand, and then casually tossed it into the trash bin beside them.

This scene snapped Leng Shuangshuang’s tense nerves.

She glared at him and said with no emotion in her voice, "Lu Jincheng, you’re going too far!"

Too far?

Lu Jincheng’s handsome face turned instantly gloomy. He lowered his voice and said, "Leng Shuangshuang, if we’re talking about going too far, I’m afraid I can’t compare to you in this lifetime."

Leng Shuangshuang seemed struck by lightning, her delicate face full of disbelief—did he really just say she was worse than him?

She hadn’t done anything, she just bumped into him, and yet he said she went too far?

Leng Shuangshuang was so exasperated she laughed. It was the second time in three months that she showed her emotions in front of him.

Just as Lu Jincheng thought she was going to lash out at him, he was surprised to see her decidedly turn around and leave.

Lu Jincheng was utterly shocked, watching her back, his dark eyes reflecting a layer of coldness.

Leng Shuangshuang returned to her desk, her thin lips tightly pressed together. Thinking about Lu Jincheng’s actions just now, she felt wronged and upset. She was clearly the one who got hurt, yet he spoke to her like that!

She couldn’t concentrate on work the entire morning, leading to several mistakes in the studio.

Noticing something wrong, her colleague advised her to go home and rest. She thought about it and then asked her superior for leave, heading back to the apartment near the company.

Perhaps it was psychological, ever since she found out two days ago that she was pregnant, she’s been constantly drowsy. Strangely, she couldn’t sleep at night, but found it easier to doze off during the day.

This was one of the reasons for her dark circles.

After returning home, Leng Shuangshuang made herself something to eat and then fell asleep in bed.

She slept straight through to the evening, waking up hungry.

Reluctantly, Leng Shuangshuang got out of bed and sat down, torn between making something to eat or ordering takeout, when she suddenly heard the sound of the door opening outside and was instantly startled.

Only two people had keys to her place, herself and Lu Jincheng.

The apartment was arranged by Lu Jincheng, saying it was to prevent any accidents from happening when she lived alone, so he kept a set of keys. Other than him, even her parents didn’t have keys to this place.

Leng Shuangshuang thought about it and immediately dismissed the idea.

Impossible, how could it be Lu Jincheng coming here at this hour.

With this in mind, Leng Shuangshuang was on full alert. She cautiously stepped down from the bed, barefoot, and picked up a backup stick from the balcony, slowly moving to the door, silently praying: Don’t open the door~ Don’t open the door~

However, the person outside couldn’t hear her silent prayers. On her fifth repeat, the doorknob turned.

Leng Shuangshuang’s heart leaped into her throat. She held the stick high, hiding behind the wall, intently watching the door.

The door opened, and a tall figure stepped inside.

Almost the moment she saw the figure outside the door, Leng Shuangshuang closed her eyes and swung the stick down hard on that figure. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

With a loud "bang~", Leng Shuangshuang hastily opened her eyes to check if she had hit her target, only to find herself petrified on the spot the next second.

Lu Jincheng was holding the back of his head in pain, yet his eyes were fixed on her, his expression indecipherable.
