Make a Promise

"Is liking the foundation of love?" Zhu Zhuqing murmured softly.

"Yes!" Lu Yuan nodded slightly and said.

"You like me?" Zhu Zhuqing seemed a little confused and asked again.

"Yes!" Lu Yuan said.

Zhu Zhuqing looked at Lu Yuan with a serious expression and said, "But I still feel very sad!"

"It's my fault!" Lu Yuan hugged Zhu Zhuqing even tighter, his chin resting on Zhu Zhuqing forehead, and said, "I will definitely make myself fall in love with you faster!"

"Pfft!" Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing chuckled. Lu Yuan's answer was quite interesting.

"Zhu Qing?" Lu Yuan called softly.

"What is it?" Zhu Zhuqing asked curiously.

"You said you've fallen a little in love with me?" Lu Yuan's tone was filled with joy and pride. He hadn't expected that he could actually make Zhu Zhuqing fall in love with him in just four days. It seemed that his skills in picking up girls were quite impressive!

Lu Yuan felt a little happy.

"Mmm!" Zhu Zhuqing nodded, a little embarrassed, and said softly, "But, just a tiny bit!"

"Haha!" Lu Yuan laughed and kissed Zhu Zhuqing on the forehead, saying, "A little is enough, but I believe you will love me madly in the future!"

"Shameless!" Zhu Zhuqing spat lightly, but when she thought of Lu Yuan's unparalleled good looks, she began to believe it. She felt that if she really spent a long time with Lu Yuan, it was only a matter of time before she fell for him.

"Zhu Qing, let's make a promise!" Lu Yuan said with a slight smile.

"What agreement?" Zhu Zhuqing asked.

"We're still young now, but if I fall in love with you in the future, and you fall in love with me too, then let's be together, okay?" Lu Yuan said.

"Okay!" Zhu Zhuqing replied softly after a long silence.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan smiled slightly and kissed Zhu Zhuqing's forehead again, causing Zhu Zhuqing, who was lying in Lu Yuan's arms, to blush. This guy always tries to take advantage of any opportunity.

"However, I have a question," Zhu Zhuqing asked.

"What's the problem?"

"What if only one of us falls in love with the other in the future?" Zhu Zhuqing hummed softly for a moment before asking her doubts. After all, Lu Yuan liked her, while she had already fallen in love with him and it seemed that she was not far from falling in love with him. But what about Lu Yuan? Would he fall in love with her?

Zhu Zhuqing wasn't sure, after all, Lu Yuan was too outstanding. It was very possible that she loved Lu Yuan to the point of obsession, but Lu Yuan didn't love her back. This situation was quite possible.

Zhu Zhuqing thought about it and felt quite uneasy.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan smiled gently and said, "If you fall in love with me in the future, but I don't fall in love with you, I will still marry you. After all, I made a promise, and I must keep it."

Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing felt relieved and asked, "What if you fall in love with me, but I don't love you as much?"

"Then you're still mine!" Lu Yuan laughed.

"You, you're being unreasonable!" Zhu Zhuqing laughed in anger. So, regardless of whether he loved her or she loved him, she had to marry him?

"Ha, reasoning? I, Lu, never reason!" Lu Yuan said domineeringly, "Anyway, Zhu Zhuqing, you can only be mine for life, and you can't escape!"

"You, you're so domineering!" Zhu Zhuqing lay in Lu Yuan's arms, feeling Lu Yuan heartbeat, biting her red lips as she spoke.

However, Zhu Zhuqing felt Sisi sweetness in her heart. This domineering man was really likable!

"Of course I have to be a bit domineering, otherwise what if my future wife runs away!" Lu Yuan smiled and gently stroked Zhu Zhuqing's long hair.

Zhu Zhuqing's hair was exceptionally smooth and had a wonderful feel, like the finest silk.

Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Zhu Zhuqing blushed but did not refute them. She simply leaned against Lu Yuan's chest.

Lu Yuan stroked Zhu Zhuqing's hair, gently inhaling the delicate fragrance emanating from her, and his heart found a rare moment of peace.

Lying in Lu Yuan's arms, Zhu Zhuqing quietly looked at Lu Yuan's profile with gentle eyes.

"Glug, glug!" That's the sound of the steam rising from the boiling water hitting the pot lid.

"Hey, the soup's boiling!" Lu Yuan said, looking at the steam rising from the pot.

"Will this soup really help my injuries?" Zhu Zhuqing asked.

"Yes, it's not only effective, but also remarkably effective!" Lu Yuan affirmed.

He continued.

"But"

"But what?" Zhu Zhuqing opened her beautiful big eyes.

"However, this Blood Crystal is the condensation of blood essence, and it is indeed very nourishing, but the taste after it is boiled may be a bit..." Lu Yuan glanced at Zhu Zhuqing and said.

"Will it taste bad?" Zhu Zhuqing asked.

"Okay!" Lu Yuan nodded and said, "However, you must drink it all!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing looked at Lu Yuan with resentment in her eyes. "You know it tastes bad, yet you still make me drink it all?"

"Don't look at me like that. I'm doing this for your own good. Look at all the injuries you have!" Lu Yuan pointed to Zhu Zhuqing 'Zhu Zhuqing abdomen, arms, and then to the injuries on her back.

"Can you drink it?" Zhu Zhuqing asked.

Lu Yuan shook his head and said, "I'm not injured, why would I drink it!"

He acted as if it were perfectly natural.

A hint of disdain flashed in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes. Ha, men.

Lu Yuan naturally ignored Zhu Zhuqing's gaze. Knowing it was wrong, why did he still go looking for trouble?

He's not stupid!

The gurgling sound went on for a long time. Lu Yuan looked at the sky and said, "It should be about time. I'll go check!" He then helped Zhu Zhuqing sit up straight and gestured for her to sit properly.

Zhu Zhuqing nodded, sat up straight, and watched Lu Yuan's movements without blinking.

Lu Yuan lifted the pot lid, and a strong smell of blood wafted out, causing Lu Yuan to unconsciously frown. Although the Blood Crystal was indeed highly nourishing, the smell was truly indescribable.

Looking at the thick, bright red broth that had completely dissolved, Lu Yuan nodded. At this stage, the essence of the Blood Crystal and the Thunder Spirit Tiger bone had been almost completely extracted.

Lu Yuan filled a bowl and placed it in front of Zhu Zhuqing.

He gently scooped up a spoonful with a wooden spoon, blew on it lightly, and brought it to Zhu Zhuqing's lips. "Drink!"

Smelling the pungent smell of blood, Zhu Zhuqing looked at Lu Yuan with a hint of speechlessness in her eyes.

"Why are you looking at me? Drink up!" Lu Yuan asked, somewhat puzzled by Zhu Zhuqing's gaze.

"You drink first!" Zhu Zhuqing's cold voice rang out.

"Hey, I'm not injured, why would I drink it? Come on, stop fooling around, drink it and your injury will heal quickly!" Lu Yuan said reassuringly.

As he spoke, he brought the wooden spoon in his hand to Zhu Zhuqing's lips again.

"You drink first!" Zhu Zhuqing looked at Lu Yuan, her cold voice ringing out again.
