Chapter 523 - 519: Lin Yafei is Coming
"Why didn’t you tell me about this?" Lu Tianxing wiped the tears from Lin Qianru’s face, saying in a deep voice.
"I... I didn’t want to put you at risk," Lin Qianru said softly.
"Do you really think I could bear to watch you go back to Hang City alone?"
Holding Lin Qianru tightly, Lu Tianxing said emphatically, "Don’t worry, you are my woman, and I won’t just abandon you. I’ll go back to Hang City with you. If the Tan Family dares to make a move, I’ll wipe them out for you."
Lu Tianxing’s tone was filled with dominance and murderous intent. It seemed that Tan Si’s death had not served as a deterrent to the Tan Family at all. If that was the case, then he, who dominated like a dragon crossing the river, would go to Hang City and battle the Tan Family, the local snakes, to see if a mighty dragon could indeed suppress the local snake.
"Tianxing, thank you," Lin Qianru said, looking at Lu Tianxing with tenderness.
"Do I still need to hear ’thank you’? Don’t forget you are my woman. What kind of man would I be if I didn’t have the strength to shield you from the storms? Stay safe in Modu. Once I have dealt with the matters at hand, we will go to Hang City. It’s about time I met your mother," Lu Tianxing said with a smile, as he stroked Lin Qianru’s hair.
"Who is your mother-in-law? Don’t start claiming relatives out of nowhere," Lin Qianru retorted with a glance, chiding him.
"What do you mean by claiming relatives out of nowhere? We have had ’close encounters’ after all."
Lu Tianxing said with a sly smile, "But what if my mother-in-law refuses to acknowledge me as her son-in-law? I think I need to put in a bit more effort to get you pregnant. Then, with a shotgun wedding, she’d have to agree even if she didn’t want to."
Upon hearing this, Lin Qianru’s cheeks flushed red, but her eyes held a trace of longing. Having a child would give her something to anchor her spirit to, even if Lu Tianxing left her in the future.
