Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 65 While She… Needed To Wake Him Up

Lu Jinye suddenly lowered his eyes and glanced at Xiao Qingqing. His captivating brows lightly scrunched up.

“Why are you talking about this?”

Xiao Qingqing looked at Lu Jinye bashfully, saying, “Nothing, just curious about what you think about kids.”

Lu Jinye stared at Xiao Qingqing for a long moment. In this instance, she appeared even gentler under the contrast of the office lights.

To be frank, Xiao Qingqing was rather suitable as a wife in certain aspects.

Because she was a meek woman.

However, for some reason, Lu Jinye did not want to address her question directly. He held her hand and said, “It’s late, I haven’t had anything to eat, why don’t you join me for supper?”

Getting her hand squeezed within Lu Jinye’s palm, Xiao Qingqing nodded as she felt the warmth exuded by him.

They set off from the office.

There was a restaurant just nearby. Xiao Qingqing sat across Lu Jinye, looking at him silently. Lu Jinye was aware of her stare, but he did not raise his head.

Thus, Xiao Qingqing opened her mouth, “I remember frequently coming to this place with you in the past. I felt like the luckiest woman in the world at the time. And I still feel the same.”

“Jinye, did you know? I used to be an ambitious person. I was eager to earn a reputation to myself in the entertainment industry, but after meeting you, all I want to do is to be with you.”

Lu Jinye then tilted his head upwards and met her eyes, “I hope you can be yourself, don’t sacrifice anything for me.”

How is that considered sacrificing?

Xiao Qingqing had the urge to say those words. They were at the tip of her tongue but she hesitated and ultimately relented.

She was a sensitive person.
