Forsaken By Love

The following days were spent in a blur. He Lixue was either sleeping, eating, or sitting in the study, playing with the computer, trying to solve one problem after another. 

On the third day after arriving at the mansion, He Lixue was once more fully focused on hacking into various surveillance systems in an attempt at locating Mister Jiang and the other members of the Organization. 

Just as she was focusing, the door to the study opened, and she raised her head, only to see Lu Nanfeng standing in the doorway, looking at her with slight disbelief and some tenderness in his eyes.

Although Lu Nanfeng had heard the story that He Lixue had told him, about her rebirth, it was indeed too hard to believe, but upon gazing at her focused eyes and how skillfully her hands were dancing on the keyboard, he could not help but realize that this completely unfathomable story was true. 

His woman was indeed a unique entity in this world. 

He Lixue had looked up, and her eyes were suddenly unfocused when she noticed Lu Nanfeng, an uncontrollable smile spread on her lips, and happiness was oozing out of her expression.

She quickly stopped what she was doing on the computer, removed all traces of having hacked into the surveillance system, and stood up.

"You are back already?" she asked, her voice full of happiness with a tinge of disbelief.

"With what you have experienced, I felt that I needed to hurry back," Lu Nanfeng could not help but smile. 

He took a few large strides before he was standing right in front of He Lixue, and with a swift pull on her arm, he dragged her into his embrace.

It was not before he could feel her warmth and her beating heart that he relaxed.

Lu Nanfeng's business trip was supposed to have taken between one to two weeks, but it was shortened to three days because of what had happened to He Lixue. 

"I was afraid that I had lost you," Lu Nanfeng said with a trembling voice. He had a constant feeling of discomfort while being overseas.

This was also why he had sent a text message to He Lixue every hour to check up on her, and when she was sleeping, he was so uncomfortable and unsure of whether or not she was okay. 

He had not slept well for these past three days. 

Seeing the dark circles under his eyes, He Lixue felt her heart ache. "Are you hungry, or should we go rest first?" she asked tentatively. She wanted him to get some sleep so that he could feel better soon. 

Lu Nanfeng saw the distress in He Lixue's eyes, and his heart melted into a puddle. 

"Let us take a nap first, and then decide on our next move after," he agreed. He was indeed exhausted, and he was aware that he was unable to come up with the most suitable plan before resting. 

Hearing him agree, He Lixue quickly nodded her head, took his hand, and led him towards the bedroom.

"Take a quick shower first," she said, as she went to the walk-in closet and found a pajama for him, alongside a pair of u.n.d.e.r.w.e.a.r. There was not the slightest feeling of embarrassment on her face, and she quickly placed the clothes in the bathroom, before pushing Lu Nanfeng into the bathroom.

Just as she was about to leave, she felt a pull on her arm, and she almost lost her balance, causing her to fall into Lu Nanfeng's embrace once more. 

He had still not entered the bath, and his clothes were dry, but the ambiguous position made He Lixue's ears scalding hot, and her face had flushed crimson.

"Go take your bath," she said with a low voice, but she had underestimated Lu Nanfeng's shamelessness.

Since Lu Nanfeng had accepted his feelings or He Lixue, he wanted to be intimate with her. 

"Why don't you share a bath with me? It will be much faster," Lu Nanfeng said with a roguish aura, and He Lixue was stunned. It had only been a short while since they had not seen each other, what had happened to him during this time? 

Lu Nanfeng ignored her puzzled expression as he lowered his head and began kissing He Lixue without caring for her weak protests. 

While kissing her, she tried to retreat, but Lu Nanfeng followed her, and soon they ended under the showerhead. 

Lu Nanfeng's eyes flashed as he reached out his hands and turned on the shower, allowing the cold water to cascade down upon their intimately entangled bodies.

The cold water made He Lixue shiver, and she instinctively moved towards the warmth in front of her. The warmth that came from Lu Nanfeng's body was needed to heat her up, but when she sobered up, she realized that her body, which was now soaked, was hugging Lu Nanfeng tightly. She could not help but feel slightly shy from her acts. 

Lu Nanfeng's eyes were getting deeper and darker. He was feeling more and more attracted to He Lixue, and seeing her body, which was now clad in soaking wet clothes, made him gulp slightly. Her body was extremely curvaceous. 

He could not hold his hands back from c.a.r.e.s.sing her waist, the touch sending shivers through He Lixue, and making Lu Nanfeng unable to fully grasp what he was doing. 

He had been so tired for the last couple of days, and now that he had the beauty in his arms, it felt like a dream. He was no longer sure if he was actually sober, so he could not help but continue to c.a.r.e.s.s her body, his movements growing bolder and bolder, causing shivers to run down He Lixue's body.

"Brother Nanfeng, please stop," He Lixue gasped short of air and with a crimson face.
