Xu Wangzhi was there to test Lu Mingjue on behalf of Jin Lan. He did not expect Lu Mingjue to be really ruthless. He threw a few heavy punches in a row.
Not to be outdone, Lu Mingjue clenched his fists and punched back.
The battle between the two quickly escalated.
Qiao Weiyang said worriedly, “Hubby, are you really not going to help?”
“As long as no one dies, let them fight it out.’
After all, he was a man who didn’t even stop Jingyun and Xiao Bao from fighting.
Jin Lan looked flustered. “Hey, Lu Mingjue, Xu Wangzhi, can you stop fighting?
The two of you, stop!”
“It’s none of your business!” the two of them said to her at the same time. Jin Lan was also a little angry. “Then I’ll leave. Do whatever you want!”
She picked up her bag and was about to leave.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Xu Wangzhi was a little anxious. The test hadn’t even come to an end, but she was already leaving. What should he do next?
“Hey, Jln Lan, wait!”
Xu Wangzhi was so distracted that he was punched hard by Lu Mingjue. Seeing that he was about to be beaten up one-sidedly, Jin Lan really couldn’t stand it anymore.
“Stop fighting!” She went over to protect Xu Wangzhi just as Lu Mingjue was aiming a punch to the face.
Qiao Weiyang spat out a mouthful of tea.
The whole world fell silent. It was terrifyingly quiet.
Lu Mingjue did not retract his fist for a long time. He looked at Jin Lan distractedly.
Jin Lan protected Xu Wangzhi, who revealed a delighted smile. The result was finally out.
In the hospital.
Xu Wangzhi and Lu Mingjue were being bandaged separately.
Qiao Weiyang was rolling a hard-boiled egg at the corner of Jin Lan’s eye.
Jin Lan was in so much pain that tears streamed down her face. “Ouch, ouch, ouch…”
“Bear with it. In the next few days, remember to get the makeup artist to put more concealer on you,” Qiao Weiyang said in a low voice. “This injury is not light.”
“Will I be disfigured?” Jin Lan asked. Before Qiao Weiyang could answer, Jin Lan thought of how her career had just improved and was about to be ruined because of this. She could not help but feel sad.
The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She burst into tears.
“If you’re disfigured, I’ll support you!” Xu Wangzhi added.
Lu Mingjue pushed away the nurse’s hand that was cleaning his wound and strode toward Jin Lan. He held her face with both hands.
Jin Lan looked at him in surprise and was stunned.
Qiao Weiyang stuffed the egg into his hand and reminded him, “Rub it for a few more minutes and use this medicine. The bruise should be gone in two or three days.”
After saying that, she walked to Xu Wangzhi and said in a low voice, “If you’re done playing, go to another room to treat your wounds. I’m afraid you’ll get beaten up again.”
The corners of Xu Wangzhi’s lips twitched.
Qiao Weiyang turned around and walked out with Su Zhuoqian.
Only Lu Mingjue and Jin Lan were left in the room.
He picked up the egg and rolled it gently around the corner of her eye.
When Jin Lan heard that her injury would be fine, she put away her worries. Seeing that Lu Mingjue was treating her wound seriously, she lowered her eyes.
“It hurts!” She couldn’t help but exclaim when Lu Mingjue touched her. “Why did you still protect him if you knew it’d hurt?”
“I couldn’t watch you beat him up like that. God forbid should anything happen.”
“Is he that important?” Lu Mingjue said angrily. Jin Lan pursed her lips. “Are you… angry?” “Shouldn’t I be angry?” Lu Mingjue said.
“Why are you angry?” Jin Lan asked again.
The two of them tested each other again.
Lu Mingjue said nothing.
She asked in a low voice, “Don’t tell me you’re jealous.”
“Jin Lan!” Lu Mingjue pinched her chin. “Don’t forget that you have a boyfriend.”
“It’s a pity that this boyfriend isn’t real,” Jin Lan muttered in a low voice.
As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Mingjue lowered his head and bit her lip. Jin Lan’s eyes widened, and her body stiffened. She did not know where to put her hands.
The man’s breath was unusually hot and clear, and her mind was a mess.
When she was released, she heard Lu Mingjue say, “We can make it real. Let’s see if you dare to fall in love with me.”
“Why wouldn’t I dare?” Jin Lan blurted out.
“Who was the one who said that she only wanted a career and not a relationship?”
Jin Lan recalled the last time he confessed to her late at night. She did not expect him to remember. “Weren’t you drunk at that time?”
“I was sober,” Lu Mingjue said. He put down the egg and applied the medicine.
Jin Lan clenched her fists slightly. The last time he confessed, he reeked of alcohol. She naturally thought that he was just saying that casually after getting drunk.
Hence, she did not dare to believe that his feelings for her were real.
Unexpectedly, it had been a genuine confession.
She lowered her head, but Lu Mingjue held her chin and raised it again. Her gaze met his. He was still applying medicine for her seriously.
“Don’t lower your head,” he instructed in a low voice.
Jin Lan recalled his passionate words that night, and her face slowly heated up.
She could imagine how red her face was.
Tears welled up in her eyes as well. She met his eyes and asked, “Do you really like me, then?”
Lu Mingjue put down the medicine, held her face, and kissed her gently. Slowly, his breath merged with hers.
Xu Wangzhi had gotten his wound treated outside. His injury was worse than Lu Mingjue’s, but fortunately, the two of them knew their limits. Thus, they were not seriously hurt.
He stretched his wrist and saw Lu Mingjue and Jin Lan walking out hand in hand.
‘I… F*ck!’ He cursed inwardly. The effect was too good!
Lu Mingjue walked closer and said coldly, “You and Jin Lan’s publicity can continue, but you can’t be too intimate.”
“Mr. Mingjue, I know my limits. It’s just work, not real love.”
“If you want to be beaten up, feel free to ignore my warning.” Lu Mingjue’s tone was very threatening.
Xu Wangzhi was a little desperate. Had he really made a fool of himself?
Lu Mingjue sneered and left while holding Jin Lan’s hand.
Of course, he knew that Xu Wangzhi was just testing him just now, but he couldn’t even accept it. He knew very well that he had really fallen for Jin Lan.
Jin Lan said to Xu Wangzhi, “Go back and rest early. Get your driver to pick you up. Don’t drive by yourself after drinking.”
Lu Mingjue coughed lightly. “The wound on my back hurts a little…”
Jin Lan immediately became nervous. “Where? Do you want to see another doctor?”
“No need. Accompany me to the car.”
“Okay, okay.” Jin Lan hurriedly supported him, her tone anxious and heartbroken.
“I live alone. There’s no one to take care of me… “Come back to my place. I can take care of you.”
“I’m a little hungry.”
“What do you want to eat? I’ll cook for you.”
Xu Wangzhi watched them leave with his mouth agape.. He cursed in his heart,
‘What a scheming man!’
