Revenge Sevenfold Chapter 78 We Are A Couple

"Do you hate me?"
Hui Yin widened her eyes.
She did not expect that at all.
"What?" she asked, dumbfounded.
Did he really ask her that?
Cold and slender hands grabbed her wrist, and Hui Yin yelped as he pulled her close.
Their faces only inches away, Lu Shen leaned down and stared at her.
"I said," he enunciated very carefully, "Do you hate me?"
Hui Yin didn't know what to say.
Of course she hated him!
He cheated on her, divorced her, got engaged with another woman, and then that woman murdered her. How could she not hate him? But could she really say that to him? It would drive a wedge into her plans.
"What are you talking about?"
Hui Yin forced a smile as she tried to ease her wrist out of his grip. But Lu Shen only tightened his hold on her.
Hui Yin looked up at him. There was something barely discernible hidden underneath his expressionless face, as if her answer was greatly important to him.
She felt a bit frightened. The Lu Shen in front of her felt like a leashed tiger, where one wrong move could spell her doom. She didn't know why he was behaving like this.
"Lu Shen, I told you before that Miss Nian doesn't like to see us fighting. I don't know why you're mad, but we should try to act like a couple for now and resolve this later. Okay?" Hui Yin said calmly.
Lu Shen sneered and his other hand went to grab her waist. Hui Yin gasped as his hand slid under her shirt.
"Why should we act like a couple?" he asked, his voice deep. "We are a couple. It would do you well to remember that."
Hui Yin's soft hand grabbed his wrist and stilled the hand that was wandering over her bare skin. Her eyes met his.
"I don't think I'm the one who should remember that."
Lu Shen frowned. If his emotions was like a red-hot lava inside him, he could see that this girl only had a biting coldness that seeped to the bone. He had a sudden impulse to hug her and thaw whatever it was that made her become so indifferent. Did something happen to her? He clearly knew that she wasn't like this before.
As he thought of this, Lu Shen felt a chill strike his heart. Was this why she changed so much? Did someone hurt her?
Just as he was about to ask, a maid walked into the kitchen. Seeing their intimate position, the young maid flushed a deep shade of red.
"S—sir, Miss Nian is here," she stammered, darting another glance at them before scampering away.
Wow, thought the maid, fanning her face. Madam Hui had only arrived in the villa early this morning, but sir had already attacked her twice! Who said that the Great Dragon King was cold and aloof? Cold and aloof, my ass. He's obviously a man burning with passion!
The little maid felt gleeful at this unexpected discovery. She knew working here was going to be a dream job!
Inside the kitchen, Hui Yin had already disengaged herself with Lu Shen and was fixing her clothes.
"Lovey-dovey," Hui Yin reminded him. "You don't want Miss Nian to be sad, do you?"
Lu Shen almost shook her. Who cares about that! Let's finish this conversation!
But he reigned in his temper, because he was afraid that she might show him those pair of cold eyes again. For some reason, he didn't want her to show him that kind of expression.
"We'll talk about this later," he promised.
Hui Yin shrugged.
She didn't care either way.
Grabbing his arm and intertwining his hand with hers, Hui Yin dragged Lu Shen to the living room and prepared to perform a great show.
