Spider got out as well so that he could accompany his Madam as she headed towards the playground.
Lu ngjie didn't mind his presence since he was assigned to be her personal bodyguard. After what happened back then, she was not going to complain about having soone following her around even if he was one of Yong Liwei's n.
One of the swings was not occupied so when Lu ngjie went and sat there, she was reminded of the mory that she had dread about last night.
It was the first ti she skipped classes and had tried to escape from her bodyguards. During that ti she believed that she didn't deserve to celebrate her birthday when it was also her father's death anniversary.
But things were different now that she had Little Peanut on the sa day. Aside from that, she was not as depressed as she was back then. It was because of what happened. From losing her mories to gaining them back and starting her own family.
The road to the present was bumpy but as she continued to walk in such a path, she always grew as a person, the more matured she beca.
"ngng?"
Lu ngjie's attention was diverted when soone else's soothing voice reached her ears.
She slowly lifted her head and there before her was a blond-haired man. He was wearing a casual hoodie and plain jeans. Even with those simple clothes, it didn't hide the ravishing air around him.
She furrowed her brows in confusion the mont she saw him.
Spider instantly went in between the man and his Lady Boss, looking like he was ready to beat up the man who just appeared before them. "Who are you?" He demanded.
The other man blinked a few tis, looking from Lu ngjie to Spider. "I'm ngng's friend. My na is Cian."
The na did sound familiar in her ears. Could he be… the blond-haired boy he saw in her dream?
"Do you know him, Madam?" Spider asked. His gaze was locked on Cian, he didn't even bat an eye as he continued to glare suspiciously at him.
Lu ngjie was hesitant but… the boy in her mories did resemble Cian's body fra but as for the boy's face… it was still blurry so she ended up answering with a skeptical tone in her voice, "I think so…?"
"What do you an by you think so?" The man raised a brow. He crossed his arms. "Can't you rember ?'
"No, I can't," she replied truthfully. "At least the rest of it but… I think I know you."
"Eh? How can you forget like this?" He pouted at her. "We first t here in this park, rember?"
Lu ngjie remained silent. She did rember eting a blond-haired boy in this park. So it really was him, huh?
She stood up before she placed a hand on Spider's shoulder. "It's alright, Zhizhu. Stand down."
Spider followed her order. He stepped away and instead stood beside her. He was still on his guard.
"I'm rather hurt that you have forgotten like this." Cian sighed.
"I'm sorry. I had an accident back then so I can't rember everything right now. But… I do rember eting a blond-haired boy in this park. I'm guessing that it is you?"
Cian beca quiet for a mont after hearing what she said. He was rather shocked before he snapped back from his thoughts. "Who else could it be other than ? You even proposed to the first ti we t. I can't believe you forgot that."
In the next second, Cian pulled her into a hug. "I missed you so much!"
Lu ngjie's body beca stiff. Even Spider was caught off-guard by the sudden hug so using his strength, he separated the other man from his Lady Boss. His finger an inch away from the other man's throat. "Step away from her!"
They soon caught the attention of the children around them and their parents.
Cian raised his hands in the air as he surrendered. "Easy man. It's not like I'm going to hurt her."
"It's alright, Zhizhu. I'm not hurt anywhere," she reassured him.
"You're all so jumpy. Is that why your na is Zhizhu (Spider)?" He scoffed. "It suits you."
Spider's face dimd. He didn't like Cian at all. He was a potential threat to Yong Liwei's relationship with Lu ngjie. It was his duty to protect his Lady Boss from n like Cian.
"That's enough," she ordered Spider to stand down. As she gazed into Cian's eyes, she was reluctant to believe him but the sense of familiarity she felt said otherwise. "I apologize for not rembering you right now."
"That's fine. If we spend more ti together, I'm sure that you will rember soon enough." Cian grinned.
Spend more ti together? She scoffed at the thought. Lu ngjie knew that she could use this mont to her advantage just so Yong Liwei would have a taste of his own dicine but she was not that kind of person. She would only ruin their relationship and their family further.
"Maybe next ti. I have to go now. My husband should probably be waiting for at ho," she lied. She tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear, intentionally showing off her wedding ring to him.
Just like what she wanted, Cian caught the ring around her finger under his gaze. "You're married?"
"Yes, I am. If you'll excuse , I'll have to go ho now." She flashed him a tight-lipped smile.
Cian chuckled. He didn't look like he was offended by her actions at all. When she walked past him, he opened his mouth and said, "I can't wait for the day you'll divorce him."
Lu ngjie's eyes darkened. She dug her nails on her palm as she clenched her fists tightly. Instead of falling for his trap, she let out a calm chuckle.. Without turning to face him, she responded, "Not in this life, or in the next."
