“Sir, it’s Madam Xuanji! Madam Xuanji has woken!” Butler Ye exclaimed.
Madam Xuanji had woken.
Lin Xuanji had woken!
These words left Lu Jinwen stunned. His black eyes narrowed. He gradually lowered his handsome face and met a pair of pristine, bright eyes.
Lin Xuanji opened her eyes. Her eyes were as enchanting and bright as ever. She had been in deep sleep for so many years, and there was not any dust and dirt tainting her eyes. Lu Jinwen could see his own reflection inside.
Lu Jinwen felt that he had become older when compared to her.
He gazed at her deeply. The woman that had been in his dreams day and night had finally regained consciousness.
He looked at her luscious lashes curling upwards. Time seemed to have frozen on her. She was so breathtakingly beautiful.
Her delicate hand grasped the sleeve of his black s.h.i.+rt. Lu Jinwen stretched his palm out and stroked her little face. “You’ve woken up, hm?”
His voice was ever so tender when he uttered these words, as if he was afraid of startling this sleeping beauty.
Lin Xuanji glanced at him and retracted her hand. She turned her head around to look at Tang Chenyi.
The bodyguard in black had already released Tang Chenyi. Tang Chenyi was standing on the spot without moving, but his deep almond-shaped eyes had landed on Lin Xuanji’s face.
Lin Xuanji got up gradually. She supported herself with a slender arm. Her silky black hair was scattered around messily on her shoulders, accentuating her red lips and white teeth. She was as fresh and beautiful as a young girl.
She extended her hand towards Tang Chenyi.
She was calling for Tang Chenyi.
Tang Chenyi walked ahead and came to the bedside. He gradually hunched his body.
Lin Xuanji stretched her hand out to stroke Tang Chenyi’s handsome face. Her tender finger moved towards Tang Chenyi’s almond-shaped eyes, and her eyes suddenly reddened.
Lu Jinwen looked at the mother-and-son pair and gradually arched his eyebrows. Ever since she had regained consciousness, she had merely glanced at him once.
And even this glance was impa.s.sive, as if she did not even want to look at him at all.
He curved his thin lips sneeringly and said in a hoa.r.s.e voice. “I have woken you up not to see the touching scene of both you mother and son acknowledging each other.”
Lin Xuanji did not move. She merely said, “I’ve already woken up. You leave first. I will talk to my son now.”
She asked him to leave first.
Lu Jinwen pursed his thin lips and left the bamboo hut. Before leaving, he warned, “My patience is limited. Do not test my patience.”
…
Everyone had left and there was only this mother-and-son pair left in the bamboo hut.
Luminous tears streamed down Lin Xuanji’s face. Her face blanched and a stream of blood flowed from her mouth.
She had vomited blood.
Tang Chenyi’s expression changed. Why did she vomit blood for no reason?
That year, Lin Xuanji did not die from consuming the Gelsemium elegans. What secret was she harboring in her body?
Under the anxious gaze of Tang Chenyi, Lin Xuanji gradually pressed on her chest with her hand. She was pressing on the area where her heart was.
Something swiftly flashed across Tang Chenyi’s eyes. He looked at Lin Xuanji and opened his mouth. Two hoa.r.s.e words came out from his mouth. “Mom… Mom…”
…
Lu Jinwen was in the neighboring bamboo hut. He had taken a shower.
He stood in front of the mirror, and used a shaver to shave all the stubble on his face clean before was.h.i.+ng his face. Shortly after, he changed into a clean black s.h.i.+rt.
As he did up all the b.u.t.tons on his s.h.i.+rt, he paused in contemplation. That would look too serious.
Undoing two b.u.t.tons on his s.h.i.+rt, it revealed his s.e.xy collarbone. It was better this way.
He viewed himself in the mirror. His looks were still handsome and chiseled, and he was tall and strong. He was at the age where he exuded maturity and charm.
After that glimpse of her, his mind was consumed with Lin Xuanji’s beautiful face and his throat bobbed.
He should have been wearing his pajamas.
The man curved his thin lips and his eyes crinkled seductively. Whatever he wore would be taken off soon anyway.
He walked out and arrived at Lin Xuanji’s bamboo hut.
…
Tang Chenyi had already left. Lu Jinwen pushed the door open and entered. The figure was already not on the bed. It was standing in front of the window instead.
Lu Jinwen walked into the room and closed the door. He leaned indolently against the door and daringly sized up her figure.
She was wearing a red dress and the long skirt at the back swept the floor. The well-maintained black hair cascaded down her back and the end of her hair reached her waist. She had a very slim waist which was in the shape of an “S” and was as narrow as the neck of a porcelain vase. One could not help but to ogle at her svelte waist.
As she stood there silently looking out of the window, she seemed a little out of touch with reality.
Lu Jinwen lightly rubbed his hands which were stuck in his pockets and walked over.
He stood behind her. His tall and handsome body stuck close to her body. “What are you looking at, hm?”
As he spoke to her in a low and hoa.r.s.e voice, it was as if they were a pair of lovers who had not seen each other for a very long time.
Lin Xuanji’s pristine eyes looked out of the window. “Where is my daughter?”
Lu Jinwen took out his hands from his pockets and wrapped them around her svelte waist. Her waist was really very slender and soft. “Mo’er is very well now. She has found someone who loves her a lot and she’s pregnant now.”
“I want to see her.”
“Ha.” Lin Xuanji forced out a low laugh from his chest. He pulled her into his embrace. He hunched his body and spoke into her ears. “After you have woken up, you saw your son and now you want to see your daughter. What do you treat me as?”
Lin Xuanji furrowed her pretty brows when he hugged her. “I want to take a shower, may I?”
“Of course you may.”
The door to the bamboo hut was pushed open. Someone had brought warm water into the bathroom. During this entire process, Lu Jinwen did not release her at all.
Lin Xuanji moved, wanting to extricate herself from him.
But Lu Jinwen pushed her against the wall and pinned her from the back. “Do you believe that I will screw you now if you dare to move again?”
Lin Xuanji froze and turned her face very swiftly. Her eyes shone brightly and she looked at the man. “I have landed in your hands again and I can’t escape now. Why are you so agitated?”
With that, Lin Xuanji raised her hand and tucked one lock of hair behind her ear. She curved her red lips. “Has Elder Sister woken up? She didn’t satisfy you, and so that’s why you are behaving like a wild beast on heat now?”
At the mention of Lin Xuanyin, Lu Jinwen arched his good-looking brows, and he smiled. “Darling, are you trying to dampen the mood or liven things up by mentioning your sister now?”
So obscene!
Lin Xuanji looked at the man. “Lu Jinwen, all these years you have not changed at all. You are still as energetic as ever, but…” She looked at his handsome, chiseled face, and she said pityingly, “You seem to have aged.”
