Chapter 428 Hard to Guard Against
Lin Wanrong heard and broke into a sweat; his original intention was to flirt with girls, but somehow, he ended up being flirted with. It seemed that next time he faced such a task, he would have to be mentally prepared for this possibility.
"This, Jang Geum Dongsaeng," he shook his head and sighed, modestly saying, "let's not proceed, you know, I am already married. With my honest and upright nature, it's challenging for me to be unfaithful; engaging in an affair a few times has already reached the limit."
Seo Jang Geum embraced him, her cheek against his chest, gently shaking her head: "My Lord, please say no more; I understand everything. You, for your wife's sake, would offend the world. Your true feelings are evident, and Jang Geum wouldn't dare harbor any wild thoughts. I only hope you can hold me, give me some courage, so I can speak my mind, Jang Geum doesn't want to live with lifelong regret."
This request was truly hard to refuse; Lin Wanrong was pleased inside, holding her in his arms, slowly caressing her smooth, jade-like skin, feeling a tingling sensation inside, and sighing, "Alas, Jang Geum Dongsaeng values me so much, I am indeed fortunate. At this moment of parting, my heart aches, and I truly wish to cry out to the heavens."
Taking advantage of Seo Jang Geum's distraction, he covertly pinched his nose, blinked hard, and forced out some tears, sighing deeply, "Returning the precious pearl, with twin tears falling, lamenting we didn't meet before marriage. Jang Geum Dongsaeng, I only regret that we met too late, missing the opportunity. The greatest regret in life is no greater than this; how can we make up for it?"
Seeing Lin Wanrong's eyes slightly red and misty, Seo Jang Geum's heart was torn between joy and sorrow, and tears rolled down her cheeks. Shaking her head forcefully, she said, "My Lord, with these words from you, Jang Geum would have no regrets, even in death."
"Ah, living takes even greater courage than dying," Lord Lin's face was full of melancholy, "So, don't speak so lightly of life and death. At this moment of parting, I have much to tell you. How about this, we find an inn, rent a room, and sit down together for tea, chatting, and heart-to-heart talk. Don't worry, I'm a very upright person; I won't do anything outrageous."
Seo Jang Geum's face turned slightly red, and she held him tightly without saying a word.
