Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 170: It’s Time to Fulfill Your Duty

When Qin Huaixin came to her senses, Leng Yixing had already left the room. Inexplicably, the way he looked back at her the moment he left made her heart tremble, giving her a sense of abandonment.

"What am I doing!" She covered her face and rubbed it, then dived into the bed.

-

In the end, Lu Jinyang met Zhuang Shuqing’s request and had Leng Yixing arrange the return trip.

By the time the cruise ship docked, it was already nighttime.

The autumn night was not just a bit chilly, and Zhuang Shuqing instinctively hugged her arms, shrinking her shoulders.

The next moment, a coat was draped over her shoulders, and without looking back, she could tell from its scent who its owner was.

"Aren’t you cold?"

Lu Jinyang walked beside her, shoulder to shoulder, wearing only a thin long-sleeved shirt.

"I’m not that frail."

Zhuang Shuqing: "..." Looking back, Qin Huaixin and Leng Yixing were walking side by side, but the distance between them was more than three meters.

She hooked onto Lu Jinyang’s hand and whispered beside him, "Those two behind us seem off. Should we take Xin’er home later?"

Under these circumstances, it was nearly impossible for Leng Yixing to take Qin Huaixin home.

Lu Jinyang frowned, but recalling Lu Xiao getting off the cruise ship nearby, he nodded.

Leng Yixing and Lu Jinyang both went to the parking lot to get their cars. Zhuang Shuqing didn’t ask Leng Yixing’s opinion and pulled Qin Huaixin towards Lu Jinyang’s car.

Although Leng Yixing and Qin Huaixin weren’t really related, Qin Huaixin had come with him, so it would have been polite to say something, but Zhuang Shuqing simply didn’t want to talk to him.

What is a grown man sulking at a woman for!

She never thought Leng Yixing to be naggy before, but now that Huaixin was about to be taken away, his demeanor was such a disappointment to her.

Later, on the way home, Zhuang Shuqing and Lu Jinyang took Qin Huaixin back. They saw Leng Yixing’s car parked along the road not far from Qin Huaixin’s house.

"Lu Jinyang, are you going to stop?"

Lu Jinyang didn’t answer but instead stepped on the gas and sped past.

Zhuang Shuqing asked again, "Leng Yixing seemed really off today, aren’t you going to check on him?"

Lu Jinyang turned his head, "Why don’t you comfort your friend?"

"Xin’er is different. She has a spirit of ’Ah Q’ [self-deception], such matters will only distress her for a couple of days, then she’ll recover, especially since Lu Xiao hasn’t done anything to her yet."

"Men don’t need consolation."

Zhuang Shuqing fell silent.

If she spoke further, it would seem pretentious. Let it be, it’s best not to meddle in others’ affairs, they should handle it themselves.

Back at Jinxiu Garden, as soon as Lu Jinyang entered the door, he pinned her against the wall, "Zhuang Shuqing, you need to fulfill your duties now."

Zhuang Shuqing’s heart trembled, suddenly recalling that he had agreed to her request on the ship to come back early, and the price was that she had to perform her duties as a wife.

"Can I... take a bath first?"

His wife liked cleanliness; he had no reason to refuse.

So, while Zhuang Shuqing went to get her nightgown, he quickly stripped off his shirt and began to unbuckle his belt...

"Lu Jinyang, what are you doing!"

Zhuang Shuqing blushed, gathering her courage to stop him, fortunately, his belt was not yet undone, she glared at him, "It’s me who is taking the bath, not you."

Lu Jinyang’s eyes deepened, "Let’s bathe together."

Zhuang Shuqing: "..."

Just as she was about to be carried into the bathroom by Lu Jinyang, his phone, left on the sofa, rang. Zhuang Shuqing felt relieved, "Your phone is ringing, take the call first."

Lu Jinyang put her down and walked over with a dark face, his expression darkening further when he saw the caller ID.

He pressed the reject button and walked back towards Zhuang Shuqing.
