Chapter 341: Babe, Where Does It Hurt?
Lu Shaoming stood up straight. He held the small woman in his embrace securely before he said, “The rooms here all have an attached bathroom. If you want to pee, you can only make yourself feel comfortable. I can carry you to the back of the house to settle it.”
“But, you can also let me down.”
“Sure.” Lu Shaoming pretended to want to place her down. “The wild grass behind the house has snakes. Don’t blame me for not warning you.”
One of Ning Qing’s legs had already touched the ground, but upon hearing his words, she speedily curled her arms around his neck and hung on his body. “Hehe, then I will still allow you to carry me for awhile more.”
Lu Shaoming smiled confidently.
He did not go through the door. Instead he stretched out his hand to open the window to take a shortcut. The window was not high up, he hugged small woman as they nimbly jumped out of the window.
Both of his feet landed on the ground, and he found a piece of flat grass, “Would this be okay?”
Ning Qing nodded her head, “Okay, let me down.”
Speaking about this, the problem had arrived, she did not have any shoes on her feet.
She was directly carried in his embrace from her blankets, and she had not put on any shoes.
Her entire body felt limb. She put her small hand over her stomach, and she was in a hurry as she hit him twice with her small fists. “Go and grab my shoes quickly. I am in a hurry.”
Lu Shaoming did not move. His voice got more hoarse as he said, “You don’t have to go back…”
“What?” Ning Qing was puzzled.
At this moment, one of the man’s large palms landed on her small perky behind, as if he were going to remove her safety shorts below her skirt.
Ning Qing instantly knew what he wanted to do. All of the blood in her body rushed towards her head as her small face turned red. “Lu Shaoming, you are so shameless!”
She did not dare think about that. Did he really treat her like his daughter?
It was dark now. She could not see the colour of the man’s handsome face. In a soft yet serious tone, he said, “Ning Qing, you thought that window was so easy to leap over? Forget it. If you don’t want to pee, we will go back then.”
Ning Qing was on the brink of breaking as she was in a hurry. “Lu Shaoming, you only know how to bully me.”
Lu Shaoming bent down and kissed her small, snow-white earlobes. “It’s all good as long as you know about it. I wouldn’t even do it if anyone else would let me bully them like this. Even Little Qinwen.”
Ning Qing: “…” Get lost!
…
The two of them went back to the room. Ning Qing lay on the bed. Her body felt comfortable now, but her small face was burning hot.
She stretched out her hand to lift the blanket, and she covered her small face with it.
She felt that she did not have any face to see anyone.
“Ning Qing, take the blanket off. Can you breathe with the blanket on your small face? It doesn’t feel good to sleep like this,” the man said seriously, criticizing her.
“I don’t need you to worry about me!” Ning Qing turned around and gave him the image of her back.
Lu Shaoming looked at the pink bundle in the darkness. There was a tenderness in his eyes. He stood by the window and leaned lazily beside it. He lifted his eyebrows and did not say anything again.
Ning Qing firmly tugged the blanket with one small hand. She contemplated for a moment and unwillingly said, “Oi, aren’t you going back to sleep?”
It was about midnight now.
She had slept for one or two hours, and that whole time, he was standing outside the door without leaving.
She really did not know what he was thinking of doing.
“Yeah,” the man snorted. There was a tinge of fatigue in his voice in the middle of the night. “Go to sleep, I will wait for you to fall asleep first. I will leave after.”
There was a definite psychological effect that was left in her after she lost her eyesight. He was afraid that she would get scared again.
If he were not outside just now, she would have to cry in secret all alone again.
Ning Qing did not answer him. She was too lazy to reply to him. Who cared if he did not leave? Her heart would not pity him either way.
Ning Qing forcefully closed her eyes and fell asleep feeling angry.
But she was unable to fall asleep. She tossed and turned a few times.
Lu Shaoming noticed that she was tossing and turning, and he asked softly, “Ning Qing, what is wrong?”
In the past, she was very calm when she slept. She would sleep in her own spot. If he came on the bed and took her in his embrace, she would obediently lie in his embrace and sleep.
Every morning, when he looked at her pink and powdery little face, he would feel as if his heart was full.
He was satisfied.
The woman on the bed did not say anything, but in the silence, Lu Shaoming heard her sobbing.
She was crying yet again.
Lu Shaoming lifted his eyebrows and took a few big strides forward. He stretched out his hand to pull the blankets covering her small face down, then caressed her small face, there were tears on her face, but not many.
“Ning Qing, what is wrong now? Say something.”
Ning Qing firmly bit down on her lips. She laid sideways to sleep and curled her slim legs together. Both of her slim arms were protecting in front of her chest, and her entire body was curled into a small bundle.
“My bag…” She bit down her teeth like she was in pain.
Lu Shaoming stood up quickly and searched his pockets. He found a lighter and sparked it. He found her small orange shoulder bag on a small stool.
He opened the bag, and there were a few books inside it, tissues, and also a small mirror and hairbrush that a girl would use to tidy herself up…
“Ning Qing, there is nothing in it. What are you looking for?” She would not be looking for these things.
Ning Qing protected herself. She was not sobbing loudly, but she was moaning in pain.
Lu Shaoming realized that she was not behaving normally. One of his knees was bent on the bed, and he touched her forehead. Her forehead was covered in beads of sweat.
Lu Shaoming’s irises contracted. His voice got even more serious due to his anxiety and pity. “Ning Qing, where does it hurt? Speak quickly. I will take you to the hospital.”
The woman was not willing, and one of her small hands was firmly holding the bed.
At this moment, Lu Shaoming was really anxious. “Ning Qing!” he called out to her.
The woman on the bed heard him and curled up in fear.
Lu Shaoming put his hand on his forehead. He did not have a solution. He bent his body down and placed one of his hands by her side. He protected her below him. He bent down to kiss her, and he coaxed her gently. “Babe, sorry I raised my voice at you just now. It was because Hubby was in a hurry. Hubby saw you in pain. Hubby feels even more painful compared to you. Where does it hurt? Can you tell Hubby? Hubby will share the load with you okay?”
His hand went to hold her small hand, and it was only then that he realized that she was holding her chest tightly.
He froze and went towards her.
His tightly pent up emotions relaxed, and he heaved a sigh of relief. He kissed her small earlobes, “You came to the winery today so you didn’t feed Little Qinwen. You forgot to bring your breast pump, so you are engorged and in pain now right?”
Two months ago, in England, there was a professional who came to massage and pump milk for her everyday. He saw it once unintentionally, and his body felt very uncomfortable for a long period of time.
After that, at the set timing, he would love to stand by the door of her hospital ward. Those intimate things… He was afraid that someone would see.
After all, the people in the hospital were messy.
At that time, Zhou Dayuan laughed at him, saying that he was more qualified than anyone to be a door guard.
At that time, Lu Shaoming slanted his gaze towards him. He was not qualified to speak when he did not have a wife himself.
The smile on Lu Shaoming’s face got even more apparent. In these two months, the herbs made his entire being feel much better. At least, he would not get nose bleeds anymore. He would not go into shock anymore. He could look at her, get close to her, and have feelings for her. He could have deep feelings for her, but it would be a little painful for him.
Two of his large hands pressed on her shoulder, and he turned her around to face him. “Babe, I will help you.”
He wanted to help her?
This four words made Ning Qing struggle instantly.
She would note tell him about this kind of thing. She could not let him know. She would only cry when she was in pain. She was frustrated with herself because she had forgotten to bring the item.
But he touched her, and she already had a whiff of danger. They have already been a couple for three years. In the eyes of this matured man, he could do anything that was out of her imagination.
Ning Qing could not stop pushing him away. “Lu Shaoming, what do you want to do? You better not do anything shameless again. If you do, I will look down on you.”
The small, wild cat was moving too vigorously, but the man used one of his long legs to press down on her slim leg, and he used one hand to press both of her small hands behind her head. He successfully pinned her down.
It was extremely easy for him.
Ning Qing: “Lu Shaoming!”
“Babe, you know what I want to do right? I will help you. If not, you would in pain for an entire day. If you are engorged for the entire night, our Little Qin Wen would not have milk to drink; he would be hungry.”
A chill descended through her body, and her shirt was lifted up.
Ning Qing’s irises contracted as she said, “Lu Shaoming, go away. You are not allowed to touch me. I will hate you. I will really hate you… Ah!”
…
The next morning
The thunderstorm stopped, and the dawn was breaking. The flowers after the rain welcomed the warm breeze in the summer as they blossomed. The flowers were all in full bloom.
Ning Qing took in a breath of fresh air. At this moment, two female classmates came over and softly said, “Ning Qing, have you seen Director Zhou? Why has she not appeared?”
Ning Qing cast her gaze towards the dining room. It was true, she has not seen Zhou Zhilei this morning. She also felt that it was pretty weird.
Ning Qing shook her head. “I haven’t seen her. Maybe she is busy with matters concerning the winery. Do you have anything specific that you are looking for her for?”
The two females classmates shook their heads. “Nothing much.” Both of them held onto one of Ning Qing’s slim arms as they gossiped. “Ning Qing, we have heard something.”
“What?”
“There was a classmate who could not fall asleep. He came out to walk around, and he saw Director Zhou being helped by two maids as they secretly lifted her up into an ambulance. That classmate saw that Director Zhou’s face was swollen on one side. It seemed to be a slap on her face. There was a huge blanket wrapped around Director Zhou’s body.”
Ning Qing heard what they said, and she looked puzzled. She looked at the two cute female classmates and said, “So….”
“So given what we described, Director Zhou seems to have been…raped by someone.”
Ning Qing froze for a moment. This was Zhou Zhilei’s territory. Who could rape her here, unless it was…Tang Xueli.
She also did not know what Zhou Zhilei was thinking. The moment she saw Tang Xueli, Ning Qing knew that he was not a good person. Why did she want to date him?
Zhou Zhilei still wanted to make use of Tang Xueli, but he raped her. It made sense. She was being too risky, and she had risked her own life.
Ning Qing did not pity Zhou Zhilei. That woman was blinded by love. She would not shed a tear for her unless she saw her coffin.
Ning Qing was pondering, and at this moment, a voice that rang through her ears, “Young Master Lu.”
Ning Qing lowered her gaze instinctively. Lu Shaoming arrived.
He was dressed in a white shirt and black trousers. His clothes did not have a single crease, and it made him look cold and elegant. He had slept in the wee hours of the night. His chiselled face did not have a single trace of fatigue on it, and he still looked handsome and mesmerizing.
Their gazes collided. The man’s dark eyes were especially sparkling, and when he looked at her, her gaze still had the gentleness and warmth left over from last night.
Ning Qing quickly looked elsewhere, then went down the stairs.
“Ay, Ning Qing.” The two female classmates called out to Ning Qing.
But Ning Qing did not even turn her head as she walked away.
She lifted her eyes to look at Lu Shaoming again. The man was speaking softly to the butler of the winery. The man had a steady and forceful gait, then he also left.
One of the female classmates saw both of their back profiles and murmured to herself, “Why did Ning Qing see Young Master Lu and run? Both of them seem to be acting weird. Ay, what do you think? Are the rumours saying that they had a change in feelings really true?”
