Chapter 365 - 366: Deep Affection Lasts No More Than 3 Seconds
As they returned from the suburbs to the city, Lou Xi and Su Qingxi tacitly sat in the back, each plugging in their headphones to listen to music with eyes closed.
Lu Li drove, while Bai Lu sat in the front passenger seat.
Bai Lu wasn’t sleepy and didn’t feel like pretending to sleep; she glanced at the two girls in the back through the rearview mirror, unsure if they were truly asleep due to fatigue or just pretending.
The signal here wasn’t very good; after scrolling through Weibo a few times, an error appeared, making Bai Lu somewhat irritated.
Even more irritating was that Bai Lu realized she started getting carsick after discovering her fear of heights.
Perhaps it was because she had been playing on her phone just now.
"Stop the car, Lu Li, stop the car!" Carsickness came suddenly.
Seeing Bai Lu’s slightly pale face, Lu Li immediately pulled the car over.
Since they weren’t going to a usual tourist spot, there weren’t many cars on this road. Lu Li saw no cars behind and promptly pulled over.
Before the car completely stopped, Bai Lu got out from the passenger seat, leaned over the guardrail wanting to vomit but couldn’t, feeling very uncomfortable.
Suddenly, a hand reached out from behind, gently patting Bai Lu’s back.
The two people didn’t speak first, as Bai Lu just held onto the guardrail, coughing.
Lu Li gently patted her back.
After a while, the nausea in Bai Lu’s heart subsided, and she didn’t feel as sick as before, so she straightened up, and Lu Li’s hand retracted at that moment.
"Let’s walk over there, and when you feel better, we’ll head back." Lu Li said, pointing to the mountain road.
Bai Lu indeed didn’t want to go back to the car now; walking was fine.
But that meant she would have to walk with Lu Li.
"Okay..."
Hearing Bai Lu’s affirmative answer, a slight smile curved at Lu Li’s lips, barely containing his joy.
"Drink some water, relax a bit, I’ll go tell Lou Xi and Qingxi to wait a while."
"Mm." Bai Lu pretended not to see the joy on Lu Li’s face that he couldn’t hide, carrying a bottle of mineral water, strolling along the road alone.
The autumn scenery in the outer suburbs of the Capital was beautiful, with hills covered in red maple leaves, extraordinarily pretty.
The air was much fresher than the city’s; calling this place a paradise is no exaggeration.
After walking a few steps, Lu Li caught up, and perhaps walking a bit fast, he couldn’t stop his steps in time and bumped into Bai Lu’s back.
Unprepared, Bai Lu was about to rush forward.
Lu Li reached out, hugging Bai Lu around the waist, increased his hold, Bai Lu’s entire back pressed against Lu Li’s chest.
In autumn, neither of them wore thick clothes, through two layers of clothing Bai Lu could clearly feel the heating temperature from Lu Li’s body.
Moreover, she could hear his strong, powerful heartbeat.
"Watch your step," Lu Li whispered softly near Bai Lu’s ear, as he lowered his head.
Bai Lu felt a bit hot, a peculiar sensation she couldn’t describe flowed through her body, settling at the spot where Lu Li held her waist.
Two seconds later, Bai Lu instantly shook off Lu Li’s hand, turned around, and glared at him!
"Obviously you bumped into me, and you still want to blame me!" Bai Lu said angrily.
A moment of tenderness lasted less than three seconds, then was instantly ruined.
Lu Li shrugged, "Let’s walk first, the scenery here is beautiful!"
Who can’t change the subject?
