After a long while, the silence was finally broken by the ringing of a phone.
The screen is flashing--
Qingqing.
Lu Lin then handed the phone back to Lu Muchi, Lu Muchi immediately breathed a sigh of relief and eagerly answered, " Qingqing."
Yan Heqing's voice was cold on the phone, "I'm not feeling well, I'm leaving now."
Lu Muchi quickly said, "Don't move, I'll come get you!"
Yan Heqing had already hung up the phone.
Lu Lin was in a bad mood today, and it seemed he had a fight with his lover. Lu Muchi didn't dare to provoke him at all, and cautiously said, "Uncle, my friend is looking for..."
Lu Lin finally spoke up, "Don't stay out too late."
"I understand!" Lu Muchi nodded, turned around and strode towards the winery.
Lu Lin then retrieved his phone and returned to his car. Chu Ziyu was still asleep when Lu Lin sent her a message.
The assistant replied quickly.
[ President Lu, everything is arranged.]
At the same time, a familiar figure appeared in the rearview mirror.
Yan Heqing has come out.
Lu Lin stared at Yan Heqing in the rearview mirror for a while before rolling up the car window.
When Lu Muqi reached the parking lot and didn't see Lu Lin, Lu Muchi breathed a sigh of relief. He caught up with Yan Heqing and asked, "Is it an upset stomach or a stomachache?"
Yan Heqing ignored him, found his car and got in. He tried to start the car several times but there was no response. His brow twitched slightly.
Lu Muchi asked knowingly, "What's wrong?"
Yan Heqing said calmly, "It won't start."
"It's probably broken. I'll get someone to fix it." Lu Muchi took out his phone. "Even the earliest it can be done is tomorrow. There are rooms here. Are you staying here, or do you want to take my car back?"
Lu Muchi knew that Yan Heqing wouldn't choose the front option; he had said he wanted to go home early.
Yan Heqing also guessed Lu Muchi's intention: to take him somewhere.
He remained calm and said, "I'll take your car."
Lu Lin didn't follow the car immediately. When the driver arrived, he asked the driver to take Chu Ziyu back, while he drove the new car the driver had brought to the Heavenly Bay Mountain.
--
Upon reaching the entrance to Heavenly Bay Mountain, the mountain roads on both sides were lined with flashing blue and white lights. Yan Heqing lowered the car window and looked at the road sign, "This road doesn't lead to my place."
Lu Muchi laughed, quickened his pace to get into the car, and said, "Before we go back, I'll show you some beautiful scenery."
At this point, Yan Heqing had not yet determined Lu Muchi's purpose.
Upon reaching the summit, as soon as he stepped out of the car, the once dark and quiet mountaintop was instantly illuminated by flashing orange lights, and cold fireworks bloomed all around.
" Qingqing, I love you." Lu Muchi knelt on one knee, holding up the ring, his eyes filled with expectation. "I will never let you suffer again. I will treat you well for the rest of my life. Marry me."
Yan Heqing recognized the ring.
Xu Qiaoyin stayed behind, Lu Han threw the rings into the trash can, and Lu Muchi picked them up again.
In the original story, Lu Muchi Lin Fengzhi with this ring. Lin Fengzhi was deeply moved upon hearing the meaning behind the ring and accepted the proposal.
Right in front of his grave.
The cold fireworks were still blooming, their intermittent white light reflecting on Yan Heqing's face.
After a moment, he spoke coldly—
"You are
funny
"Yes, I have a fiancé."
Chapter 116
Fireworks sizzled, and blood rushed into Lu Muchi's brain instantly. The flow was so fast that it caused a sudden, sharp pain in his temples, severe dizziness, and blurred vision.
Yan Heqing's face was both very close and very far away.
Lu Muchi gripped the ring tightly; the burning heat spreading from his fingertips made it hard for him to breathe.
fiancé?
Does Yan Heqing have a fiancé?
Are you kidding me!
He strained to twitch the corners of his mouth, trying to find even the slightest flaw in Yan Heqing's face.
" Qingqing, don't joke like that."
He knelt on one knee, and Yan Heqing looked down at him, the cold-colored fireworks outlining his emotionless jawline.
"I never joke."
"I don't believe it!" Lu Muchi roared, the ring falling into his palm. He clenched it tightly as he stood up, grabbing Yan Heqing's shoulders, his eyes bloodshot. "You still don't believe me? You're just trying to anger me, aren't you? Go find Lin Fengzhi now and explain things clearly. The one I love—"
He couldn't continue.
Yan Heqing remained calm and did not break free from Lu Muchi's grasp, simply watching him go mad with indifference and coldness.
The calmer he became, the less Lu Muchi could deceive himself.
His fears came true.
He wasn't oblivious to it, but he didn't want to think about it deeply. He was afraid that Yan Heqing truly didn't like him, and therefore he couldn't wait to trap Yan Heqing with marriage.
Lu Muchi's back teeth were almost bitten off, and his voice was so deep it sounded like he was about to kill someone.
"Who is he!"
Yan Heqing sneered, "You have no right to know about him."
"I'm asking you who he is!" Lu Muchi reacted almost instinctively, grabbing Yan Heqing's neck with both hands.
He realized what was happening, and released his grip as if burned. His eyes were terrifyingly red, and he was breathing heavily. "You're mine, and you'll belong to me for life! Anyone who dares to touch you, I'll cripple them!"
Yan Heqing raised his hand to check his watch. "I belong only to myself. Are you done? I have to go."
It was only then that Lu Muchi noticed Yan Heqing's watch. It wasn't a brand name watch; he had assumed it was just an ordinary watch. Only now, in the dim light, could he see that the dial was a luminous compass.
This is a custom-made watch.
It wasn't Yan Heqing's spending habits, nor was it Yan Heqing spending level.
Yan Heqing was willing to wear it! Simply because it was a gift from that man!
Lu Muchi's entire body was tense to the point of pain, his facial muscles twitching rapidly. "The more you protect him, the worse his fate will be. If you break up with him now, I might consider letting him go."
Yan Heqing smiled, "Whatever you say, I will stand by him through thick and thin."
He walked towards the road, then stopped after a few steps, saying his last words, "Don't contact me again. I don't want him to misunderstand."
These words thoroughly enraged Lu Muchi. Staring at Yan Heqing's retreating figure, only one thought occupied his mind—
We can't let Yan Heqing leave; if he leaves, we'll lose Yan Heqing forever.
Tonight, he will possess Yan Heqing completely!
