169: Chapter 146: She Loses Sleep for Him, He is Heartbroken for Her_1 169: Chapter 146: She Loses Sleep for Him, He is Heartbroken for Her_1 That night when they went back, neither of them said a word, creating a somewhat tense atmosphere.

Lu Yinchu drove Nanxi to the entrance of the Liang Family residential area, then got out of the car after her.

The security guard, Xiaoqiang, was on duty today.

He leaned in to take a closer look as a car pulled up.

He had just gone to the bathroom when Nanxi left earlier and was surprised to see her get out of the same black car now.

He furrowed his eyebrows in curiosity; the car seemed somewhat familiar.

Over here, Lu Yinchu took hold of Nanxi’s arm and sighed before he spoke, “I was reckless tonight, and I’m sorry if I’ve caused you any trouble.

But Nanxi, please promise me, give both of us some time to calm down.

Don’t make hasty decisions, even for the sake of your missing parents…”

He looked at Nanxi, pursed his lips slightly, and continued, “Nanxi, I think you might feel the same deep down: if it weren’t for me, you might never find your parents in this lifetime…”

Nanxi remained silent, her eyes shimmering slightly.

“Nanxi, you’ve experienced love before, so I thought you would understand me; I’m a normal man, but one who’s been lonely for too long…

Eight years ago, I met a woman, but before I could even tell her that I loved her, I lost her.

It has been more than six years since I last saw her…”

Nanxi shivered slightly.

Standing under the dim streetlights, Lu Yinchu’s eyes were clear and even a bit moist.

His poignant sorrow touched Nanxi deeply.

“Nanxi, can you imagine how it feels when the person you deeply love suddenly disappears in the sea of people, and you can no longer find them, no matter how hard you try?

Six years ago, when your parents disappeared, do you remember how you felt then?

My feelings at that time were exactly like yours!”

Lu Yinchu turned sideways, one hand in his pocket, his voice low and husky.

He said, “Nanxi, because you understand it, you know that feeling of desperation, of clinging to warmth in times of despair, of doing everything possible to protect that warmth…

just like what you are doing and trying to do for your uncle, grandmother, cousin, and your boyfriend right now…”

His thin lips tightened, as he drew stiff-bodied Nanxi into his embrace.

Nanxi tried to resist, but stopped at his soft sigh.

“Nanxi, forgive my intrusion, but please don’t make your decisions so easily.

Just like you cherish the warmth around you, I do too.

But unlike you, I’m not so fortunate to have easily accessible sources of warmth.
