She almost forgot to breathe, and subconsciously held her breath, nervously watching Lu Qilin open the lid of the box.
Don’t ask for a ring, don’t ask for a ring, the young master can’t ask for marriage…
All of Lu Che's hopes rested on this final moment of revelation.
She didn't expect the young master to like her, nor did she expect him to be sincere to her. She only hoped that Lu Qilin would not like another woman so much.
Don't propose to the other person.
However, when the lid of the jewelry box was opened, the dazzling diamond ring lay there quietly. Even through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the restaurant, Lu Che could see the brilliant and dazzling brilliance under the gorgeous lights.
The young master...liked that woman...he proposed to her!
Lu Che's body was shaking constantly. She forgot to breathe and to hide her body. She didn't know why she was standing here or why she was here.
She is a joke, a joke.
Suddenly, Lu Che turned around and saw a closed bookstore next to her.
The shop was completely dark, but the street lights outside were on. Lu Che could just see his own reflection in the window of the closed bookstore.
Compared to the beautiful and charming woman in the French restaurant across the street, she, Lu Che, was simply a real man.
The girl in the mirror had short hair, a dull black color, completely different from the other person's soft, curly chestnut hair.
Her face was without any makeup, and Lu Che didn't even have a lipstick. She was wearing a thick men's coat, and she didn't look like a feminine person at all.
Thinking of the woman in the restaurant next door who took off her coat and whose curvy figure was outlined by her fiery red dress, Lu Che felt even more pathetic.
In the past, Lu Che was afraid of being discovered his true identity, and he wished he could be like a real man.
But at this moment, she hated herself so much, hated herself for being neither male nor female.
Lu Che had no way of staying here any longer. Even though they were only separated by a street, she felt a stabbing pain when she saw Lu Qilin and that woman's bright figures.
Lu Che took a deep breath, bit his lower lip, suppressed his grief, and left quickly.
…
Inside the restaurant, Lu Qilin seemed to see a familiar figure flash by under the street light across the street.
His deep gaze looked across the street through the floor-to-ceiling glass.
"Rin, what are you looking at?"
The woman sitting opposite him noticed his distraction and asked softly.
Lu Qilin came back to his senses and laughed: "Nothing, I must have seen it wrong."
Xiao Che always listened to him the most. He asked her to rest in the hotel, so naturally she would not appear here.
…
A little later, Lu Qilin returned to the hotel after sending the woman he had dinner with tonight home.
When he used the room card to swipe open the hotel room door, the entire room was dark with the lights off, just like the previous few days.
Lu Qilin knew that Lu Che must have gone to bed.
He walked into the bedroom lightly without turning on the light. Just like the previous few days, he took off his coat, went into the bathroom to take a shower, and then came out again, all wet.
Lu Qilin was already used to this kind of situation. He went to bed in his pajamas, and subconsciously reached to his side, wanting to hold Lu Che in his arms.
However, when the big hand touched it, it felt cold.
Originally, Lu Che should have been sleeping there obediently with his back to him, just like he did in the previous nights, but now there was no one there!
“Xiao Che…” Lu Qilin’s eyes darkened slightly, and he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
