Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

“Marry me.”

Jiang Xinghe said those words calmly, as though he was making a casual remark about the weather.

Lu Jiahe froze for a few seconds and pinched herself hard. She couldn't believe what she heard.

Ouch, it hurts!

“Master, you must be kidding me, aren't you?”

Marry him?! Hades Jiang wants me to marry him?

Lu Jiahe had never expected that she would sleep with Jiang Xinghe. Neither did she expect that Jiang Xinghe would want to marry her after their one-night-stand!

Something must have gone wrong.

Jiang Xinghe stared at her and asked, “You're unwilling to do so?”

Lu Jiahe silently screamed her unwillingness from the bottom of her heart.

Of course, she was afraid to refute. She said, “Master, I'm definitely not your cup of tea. You'll have to marry a girl who is equivalent to your level. Since you're so handsome, tall, and having such an outstanding job, you must marry a rich girl from an esteemed family! I'm very poor...”

Lu Jiahe praised him endlessly. Jiang Xinghe furrowed his brows and stopped her, “What did you say? I have an outstanding job?”

Lu Jiahe twitched the corner of her mouth and explained, “Yes. Your medical skills are superb! Master, I heard that our department head's daughter has feelings for you. You two make a heavenly match!”

Lu Jiahe wanted to get away but Jiang Xinghe held on to her collar, lifting her upwards.

Why is she so light?

Jiang Xinghe furrowed his eyebrows further.

“It was my first time last night; you have to be responsible.”

Lu Jiahe was rendered speechless.

Jiang Xinghe is in his thirties; how can he still be a virgin?

Lu Jiahe blinked her eyes innocently and continued, “Master, it was my first time too. Why don't we just...forget about it?”

“It's exactly that it's your first time too, hence we should handle this matter with care.”

What kind of excuse was that? Lu Jiahe was rendered speechless.

Lu Jiahe was from a humble family. Hence, she always thought that her vitality was stronger than anyone else. Her life resembled a wild plant. She can grow healthy and strong as long as there were water and nutrients. Backtrack to her university days, her professor in the department was very strict. The professor failed Lu Jiahe's thesis multiple times, hence she came up with an idea. She cried and begged the professor. He was worried that Lu Jiahe couldn't withstand the pressure and would commit suicide. Hence, he then passed her thesis, before the matter escalated out of hand.

No matter what situation Lu Jiahe ran into, she would always have a way to make it through. Although the ways may sound stupid, inappropriate, and shameful, it worked.

But now that she was facing Jiang Xinghe, Lu Jiahe realized that her 'law of survival' failed to work.

She dared not throw a scene in front of Hades Jiang. As Jiang Xinghe was very cold-blooded, he wouldn't put into consideration her pleas.

Jiang Xinghe looked at her scornfully and turned to the washroom to clean up.

“I have mysophobia, so do not have any intimate relationships with other men. Of course, I won't do that with other women too.”

Lu Jiahe froze and the corner of her mouth twitched.

What does this mean? I can't fall in love with other men from now on?

But I dislike him, neither do I want to be with him.

So now our relationship will be sex partners?
