Chapter 718: Chapter 718: Extra: Huang Gun x Lu Yibing (4)
Huang Gun saw the words above and instantly felt overjoyed because it read: I can help you cure this dog’s hair loss.
He was worried he’d left a bad impression on this young lady, but now there might be a turning point.
If he could make a good impression on her, it would be remarkable that she was still willing to help him.
“Thank you, I am truly grateful.” Huang Gun tried his best to act like a gentleman, considering he had already left the impression of a rogue on this young lady.
Xiao Zhu pouted and said, “Miss, I think he has improper intentions towards you, why do you want to help him?”
Lu Yibing shook her head and then pointed at Erhua.
Huang Gun instantly understood, the young lady ant: she wasn’t helping him, but the dog.
Oh dear, he’s just like having fire on his eyebrow—red-eyed, he might as well be a dog!
After being petted by Lu Yibing, and realizing what a good owner should be, Erhua, who’s had enough of its ‘miserable’ dog life, resolutely followed Lu Yibing.
“Erhua!” Huang Gun cried out heart-wrenchingly.
Today he not only failed to apologize properly but also lost a dog companion!
Erhua looked back at Huang Gun three tis with every step, and Huang Gun gazed at it reluctantly.
Lu Yibing ca over and gave Huang Gun a note.
It read: Seven days later, co to this address to find Erhua.
Huang Gun looked at the young lady’s address and felt it was familiar, but for the mont couldn’t recall whose ho it was.
So be it, he’ll find out in seven days; conveniently, he can also formally visit with a gift to thank this beautiful and kind lady for her kindness to his dog.
Seven days later, Huang Gun followed the address on the note and ca to the young lady’s house with a gift.
He stood at the entrance, his small eyes darting around, dumbfounded.
Because above the vermilion door was a large plaque with golden characters that read: Lu Residence.
Such a prominent family, and with the surna Lu!
Could it be Lu Zhong’s ho!
Huang Gun’s mouth twitched, “It can’t be such a coincidence, can it!”
Coincidentally, Lu Zhong’s sedan chair returned ho.
Huang Gun quickly hid the brocade box behind his back and smiled as he watched Lu Zhong’s sedan pass by.
Suddenly, Lu Zhong lifted the curtain of the sedan and asked, “Why is Minister Huang at the entrance of my ho?”
Huang Gun’s smile faded slightly as he said, “Just passing by, sir, I was admiring how grand Lord Lu’s residence is, so I took a second look.”
Lu Zhong nodded, “Would you like to co in for a while?”
Huang Gun awkwardly smiled, “No, no, it’s fine.”
Lu Zhong went into his house, and soon after, he saw his daughter playing with a dog in the garden, wearing a sweet smile.
Lu Zhong stroked his beard, realizing it had been a long ti since he’d seen his daughter so happy.
However, where did this dog co from, why did it look sowhat familiar?
Perhaps he was overthinking it!
Lu Yibing waited for Huang Gun to co to the residence to take back his dog, and she found it a bit strange that he hadn’t appeared.
She reconsidered that perhaps Huang Gun had other things to attend to; she had heard from her father about how Huang Gun had spoken eloquently in debates and had seen Huang Gun heroically driving off drunks before.
Although Huang Gun accidentally bumped into her twice, she felt it wasn’t intentional.
She had even slapped Huang Gun; she had also helped him cure Erhua’s hair loss, and by calculation, they were even.
If Huang Gun doesn’t co, that’s fine too, as Erhua can spend more ti with her.
Xiao Zhu watched her young mistress smile and dress especially beautifully today and thought to herself, maybe the young mistress likes Mr. Huang!
…
When Huang Gun guessed the young lady might be Lu Zhong’s daughter, considering how Lu Zhong despised him, he feared that before he could propose, Lu Zhong would drive him out!
What a small world for enemies to et.
Such a fate!
He actually fell for Lu Zhong’s daughter!
Oh!
At night, Huang Gun sneaked into the Lu Residence over the wall, managing to find Lu Yibing’s room. He saw her go out, and he imdiately left a note in her room and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yibing suddenly entered the room, and she was stunned upon seeing Huang Gun.
Huang Gun saw she was about to scream and imdiately covered her mouth.
“Don’t shout,” Huang Gun explained desperately, “I’m here to invite you out.”
The more he explained, the more he muddled it. Lu Yibing suddenly heard familiar footsteps, followed by Lu Zhong’s voice, “Bing’er, why haven’t you gone to sleep yet?”
Huang Gun thought he was dood; this couldn’t be explained.
In the middle of the night, in Lu Zhong’s daughter’s room, Lu Zhong would definitely beat him to death!
Lu Yibing patted Huang Gun’s hand, and Huang Gun thought she couldn’t breathe, so he imdiately released her.
Then Lu Yibing did sothing unexpected; she blew out the candle in the room and stuffed Huang Gun into the wardrobe.
Lu Zhong, seeing the candlelight out in the room, said, “Then go to sleep early!”
“Mm-hmm,” Lu Yibing responded.
After Lu Zhong fully left, Lu Yibing finally pulled Huang Gun out of the wardrobe.
In the dark, Huang Gun explained, “Miss Lu, I truly ca to invite you out to return Erhua to .”
“Mm,” Lu Yibing nodded, having seen a note on the table earlier.
“Then shall we et tomorrow at the front of Wangjiang Building?” Huang Gun asked.
“Mm,” Lu Yibing agreed, now understanding why Huang Gun hadn’t co; he must have realized she was Lu Zhong’s daughter and was afraid her father would misunderstand their relationship!
Feeling good, Huang Gun was ready to leave, but in the darkness, he stumbled and accidentally fell on top of Lu Yibing, unlike last ti, this ti he shielded Lu Yibing beneath him.
The patrol guards with lanterns passed by, conveniently illuminating their sight.
His lips were so close to Lu Yibing’s that he could feel her breath.
Lu Yibing blushed; for the first ti, she heard her heart pounding so strongly, and she found she didn’t mind Huang Gun being so close.
Huang Gun was dumbfounded; after the guards passed, he helped Lu Yibing up.
Blushing, Huang Gun stuttered, “S-s-sorry.”
After speaking, he avoided the guards and quickly left the Lu Residence.
“What’s with ? Pouncing like that, Huang Gun, you’re done, you’re done!”
The next day, Huang Gun still went to et Lu Yibing; he sat by the river holding the shiny-coated Erhua, not daring to look into Lu Yibing’s eyes.
Finally, he mustered up the courage to say, “I want to marry you; will you marry ?”
“I…” Lu Yibing looked as startled as a little rabbit, and Huang Gun thought he was dood, thinking she wouldn’t agree.
Then Lu Yibing continued, “I am willing…”
Huang Gun was overjoyed, imdiately grasping Lu Yibing’s hand, and Lu Yibing was taken aback. What she ant was she was willing to try to see if they could be together.
Yet those three words slipped out smoothly, sothing unprecedented!
