"Uncle Bai?"
Hearing the knock on the door, Wen Sining opened it.
"Madam, the master asked me to bring you a glass of milk." Uncle Bai held out the cup in his hand and couldn't help but glance into the room.
When Wen Sining opened the door fully, Uncle Bai could see straight to the back of the room.
Out of habit, he took a step forward, getting closer to the door. It was obvious that his eyes swept into the room again.
"Thank you, Uncle Bai. I'll take the cup downstairs myself after I finish drinking. You should go to bed early." Wen Sining said.
Uncle Bai looked at her, a bit stunned. After a few seconds, he nodded. "You should also go to bed early after you finish the milk, Madam."
Wen Sining nodded. "Okay."
After watching Uncle Bai leave with her own eyes, Wen Sining immediately went back into the room and closed the door.
It wouldn't do her any harm if Uncle Bai knew that Lu Luochen wasn't there. Since he had left tonight, she could sleep soundly.
Turning around and entering the room, Wen Sining drank the milk as she walked towards the sofa where Lu Luochen usually slept.
After finishing the glass of milk, she put the empty cup aside. Then she lay down on the sofa and found a comfortable position on the pillow.
Staring at the lit ceiling, her eyes gradually welled up with tears, and her head slowly tilted to one side.
In the master's room.
"Really not there?"
"Yes, I saw only the madam in the room."
"Did you check his car? Is it there?"
The old master couldn't sit still on his chair.
After delivering the milk, Uncle Bai had gone to the garage downstairs in advance to double - check that he wasn't mistaken before coming to report.
Uncle Bai didn't reply immediately, and the old master knew what that meant. In the evening, he had hoped that they would come home together and their relationship would gradually improve, but unexpectedly, Lu Luochen had run out again.
"Find someone to investigate what he's doing tonight." The old master said seriously with a solemn face.
When Uncle Bai passed by Lu Luochen's room on his way out, he stopped for a moment. After hesitating for a while, he didn't knock on the door.
The clear sky during the day brought a sky full of twinkling stars at night. The bright starlight mixed with the dim lights below.
The Maybach was parked by the roadside. Lu Luochen sat in the passenger seat with a worried look on his face. The phone beside him lit up, showing an ongoing call.
He had searched countless places, every place where she might appear, but to no avail.
"Hello."
"Are you looking for Yun Chutong?"
Lu Luochen looked at the screen and picked up the phone. "Yes."
"Come to the bar. She's here."
"The bar?"
His soft hair suddenly stood on end. Lu Luochen felt a tingling sensation on his scalp, and his cold fingernails nervously tapped on the screen.
Feng Jingcheng on the other end of the phone sensed his nervousness. "Don't worry. She's just drunk."
"You watch over her. I'll be there right away." After Lu Luochen said that, the car sped on the road.
More than ten minutes later, he rushed into the bar in a hurry.
Looking around, Feng Jingcheng in the booth waved his arm high.
"Have you been with her all the time?"
Feng Jingcheng had just stood up. Hearing this, he was a bit confused. "What are you thinking? If I were with her, would I not call you?"
Their music club had just had a dinner gathering. After the meal, some people wanted to go to the bar for a second round. Feng Jingcheng was just going through the motions and planned to leave soon.
It was when he was about to leave that he heard the waiters talking and found out that Yun Chutong was also in this bar.
By the time he asked the waiter and found out her location, Yun Chutong was already dead drunk and lying on the sofa.
"Thanks." Lu Luochen bent down and picked up Yun Chutong.
As he carried her out, Feng Jingcheng picked up the handbag left on the sofa.
The two of them took Yun Chutong away in full view of everyone.
Feng Jingcheng threw Yun Chutong's phone into Lu Luochen's car without saying a word. He glanced at Lu Luochen, who took such good care of her, and helplessly shook his head.
He knew very well how long they had been together. He really couldn't understand why Lu Luochen, who was adored by women, would be so infatuated with Yun Chutong and let her push him around.
Since they started dating, the old master's opposition, Yun Chutong's frequent tantrums, and incidents like her disappearance tonight were too numerous to count.
"Let's go." Lu Luochen stepped on the accelerator.
Hearing the sound of the engine, Feng Jingcheng took a step back to keep a safe distance from the car.
On the way back, Yun Chutong in the passenger seat kept tugging at the collar of her clothes. Her flushed face was half - hidden behind her hair.
"Hot～"
Muttering softly, Yun Chutong had already taken off her coat.
The car that was driving normally on the road suddenly pulled over. Lu Luochen gently tucked the hair that had fallen on Yun Chutong's shoulders behind her ears. "Be good. We'll be home soon. Hold on a little longer."
Hearing the soothing voice, Yun Chutong grabbed the palm on her cheek.
"Don't leave me. I can't live without you."
Her arms wrapped around his, pulling Lu Luochen forward.
Despite seemingly being out of it, she had so much strength. Yun Chutong leaned on Lu Luochen's shoulder, and her warm breath hit his shoulder.
"Luochen..."
Her parted lips repeated his name over and over again. Her hot palm covered his chest.
Lu Luochen knew very well that being drunk was the most uncomfortable. He kept stroking her back with his raised hand. "I'm here. I'll take care of everything."
"I... love you..."
As the words fell, Yun Chutong even stood up from the passenger seat. Her half - closed eyes searched for Lu Luochen's lips.
Leaning forward naturally, her hot lips pressed against his cold ones.
Lu Luochen's mind went blank. The hand that was hanging down slowly lifted to stroke Yun Chutong's back.
"Chutong, you're drunk."
Feeling her soft body fall into his embrace, Lu Luochen placed his hand on her shoulder and tried to push her away, but she clung to him even tighter.
Yun Chutong was like an octopus, clinging tightly to Lu Luochen's body.
"Chutong, don't do this." Lu Luochen pushed her body away uncomfortably.
Men were emotional. With her throwing herself at him like this, his body couldn't help but desire her.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Luochen looked at Yun Chutong, who was still searching for his lips.
"I'm here. I'll always be here. But I can't do this now." Lu Luochen stroked her cheek and murmured with parted lips.
The two had been dating for many years. Apart from kissing, they had never had any other intimate actions. Especially in that regard, Lu Luochen had always restrained himself and promised Yun Chutong that they would give themselves to each other completely on their wedding night.
It was precisely because of Yun Chutong's attitude that Lu Luochen thought she was different from other women.
