Chapter 1084: Will You Not Want Me Anymore

Lin Xuanji suddenly spotted a portrait at the nightstand.

She walked over, picking up the portrait. It was drawn using her pencil on her sketchbook. The woman looked just like her doppleganger, but was dressed every differently from her. The woman in the portrait wore a navy blue cheongsam with a slit.

Cheongsam.

But she had never worn a cheongsam before.

She had just turned 18, such a vintage and mature cheongsam wasn’t something she could pull off that easily.

Lin Xuanji’s pupils contracted. This woman... wasn’t her. All the color blanched from her face.

Who was it?

Thud. The room door opened and Lu Jinwen stepped inside. “Little lazy one, are you awake yet?”

He entered the room and Lin Xuanji quickly hid the portrait once she saw him. “I’m awake.”

“Are you hungry? Go wash up first, I’ll take you out for breakfast.” Lu Jinwen wrapped his arm around her slim waist, kissing her cheek.

Feeling his love and affection for her, Lin Xuanji fluttered her lashes. One portrait couldn’t possibly mean anything, she might have just been overthinking.

historical

Though they had only known each other for two months, the way he looked at her so tenderly, the adoration in his gaze, it felt so genuine, he couldn’t possibly have feigned it.

She only believed what she felt from him.

The corners of her lips curved up, she stretched her hand out to hug him and nuzzled her face against his chest.

“What’s the matter? Why are you acting like a kitten?” Lu Jinwen laughed.

Lin Xuanji pouted her lips. “I’m a little afraid.”

“What are you afraid of?”

“I’m afraid that... you’ll not want me anymore.”

She had given him her virginity last night and felt insecure now. She was afraid that he would no longer want her, afraid that he wouldn’t marry her.

Lu Jinwen’s heart softened. She had it wrong. He was the one who was constantly afraid that she would forsake him.

He hugged her tightly hearing her say she was afraid that he would forsake her. “Silly girl, I’ll be responsible for you.”

“Mm!” Lin Xuanji nodded her head vehemently.

...

At the restaurant.

Lu Jinwen took Lin Xuanji to have breakfast and they sat near the windows.

At this moment, Lu Jinwen’s phone suddenly rang. “Xuanji, let me go outside and answer a call first. Sit still and don’t wander off by yourself.”

“Okay.”

Lu Jinwen walked away and Lin Xuanji took a sip of milk. A few young masters in the Capital passed by. “Young Master Gu, look, it’s Lin Xuanji. She’s the campus belle of X University, she has just been admitted and a huge number of students are already smitten with her.”

But Gu Tianling wasn’t interested at all. “I’ve seen so many beauties, I’m almost immune to them.”

“Young Master Gu, Lin Xuanji’s really different. If you’re not convinced, you can take a look with your own eyes.”

The few young masters pulled Gu Tianling over. Gu Tianling took a cursory glance towards Lin Xuanji and he froze, completely taken aback by her beauty.

Lin Xuanji was already used to being surrounded by gazes. She lifted her head, noticing Gu Tianling who was surrounded by a group of young masters, his gaze filled with infatuation.

She knitted her brows.

“Hello, Beauty Lin. Let me introduce you to Young Master Gu of the Capital. If you get together with him, you will never need to worry about your future again.”

“That’s right, the Gus are the wealthiest family in the Capital. If you marry into the Gu family, you’ll become the young madam who can rest easy for the rest of your life.”...

The few young masters continued to chatter.

Lin Xuanji didn’t want to bother with them. She got up from her seat to leave. But only after taking one step, Gu Tianling blocked in front of her, looking at her obsessively.

Lin Xuanji lifted her eyes and remained indifferent. “What do you want from me?”

“I...” Gu Tianling wanted to speak.

But someone appeared at that moment.
