A Warm Wedding and A New Bride of Young Master Lu

Chapter 28 - Inexplicable Yearning

Lu Boyan reached the passenger's side of his car and opened the door. Su Jianan got in obediently. After settling herself into the passenger seat, Su Jianan took out a black card and handed it to Lu Boyan the moment he was in the car. "Here."

Lu Boyan frowned. "The card doesn't work?"

"You gave me the wrong card," Su Jianan said earnestly. "My salary for two years is 480, 000 in total. But you gave me a credit card. What, you want me to use up exactly 480, 000 worth of credits and then return the card to you? But that's going to be a real pain. How am I supposed to keep track of the amount I spend every time I use it..."

The crease on Lu Boyan's brow deepened. "You only want two years' worth of salary?"

He seemed to recall that yesterday Su Jianan had mentioned something about taking her responsibilities seriously for the next two years.

Why only two years?

"That was what you said, wasn't it? You said that we'll be getting a divorce after two years," Su Jianan said. "It's not like I can drop by every day after the divorce just to prepare your meals. Other people will probably think that we couldn't get over each other..."

Lu Boyan's knitted brow eased up. He did not retrieve the card. Instead, he stepped down on the accelerator, hard. The high-performing ONE77 propelled forward like an arrow leaving a bow. Su Jianan's back slammed against the back rest. In a fit of anger, Su Jianan glared at Lu Boyan. But then she noticed the dark gloom on his face, which looked a lot like a mass of stormcloud.

Before they got their marriage license, Su Jianan had already experienced Lu Boyan's icy coldness at the hotel. But that was just coldness. Now, he was... terrifying.

Yes. Terrifying. His long and narrow eyes were cold and dark. His entire body exuded a murderous air, as if he were a cheetah on the verge of going berserk.

The endless terror she felt had taken away her ability to speak.

All of a sudden, an ear-piercing screech rang out as the car braked. The ONE77 stopped in front of the police station authoritatively. "We're here," Lu Boyan said coldly.

Su Jianan tried hard to put a smile on her lips. "Thank you."

Lu Boyan's handsome face did not show any reactions. He did not even spare Su Jianan a glance. Anger rose within Su Jianan. She flung the door open and got off the car.

"Why is he acting like such a poseur? It's not like I begged him to give me a ride. I could've ridden Jiang Shaokai's car just fine, thank you very much!" Su Jianan thought.

Swiftly, the ONE77 left the police station in a whirl. The departure was hurried and without the slightest bit of hesitation or reluctance. Su Jianan recalled Lu Boyan's warmth and gentleness back at Moon Chasing House. "As expected, that was just him putting on a show," Su Jianan thought. Now that they were not under watchful eyes, it was back to treating her like she was his personal enemy.

It should have been the heart of men, not women, that were like needles at the bottom of the ocean!

However, Su Jianan was already used to Lu Boyan's random outbursts. When she turned around, she had forgotten about all that had happened. She carried on her afternoon work without showing any signs of being affected.

After work, Su Jianan rushed home.

She would ensure that her twenty thousand monthly salary was rightfully earned by having dinner prepared before Lu Boyan's return.

Lunch at Moon Chasing House had been oily, so Su Jianan deliberately prepared a mild dinner. She waited until 8pm, but there were no signs of Lu Boyan.
