Anyway, they would have plenty of time to spend together in the future, so there was no need to rush.

If he pushed her too hard, this little girl could be quite stubborn.

“But you have to promise me one more thing,” Lu Si said with a playful tilt of his head as he watched her.

Mei Shu’s face turned slightly red, and she asked with an awkward tone, “What is it? Don’t push your luck!”

Lu Si raised a hand to tuck a loose strand of her hair behind her ear. “You can’t refuse my good intentions, and you can’t avoid me by making excuses.”

Mei Shu had an inkling that this condition was a big trap, and she mustn’t agree to it.

However, Lu Si had prepared a compelling reason to corner her. “You said it’s because you’re too young to consider this kind of thing. I’ve agreed to wait for you, but you still have to give me a chance to pursue you. Otherwise, how can I be sure that someone won’t snatch you away?”

Mei Shu felt a sense of helplessness.

This man could always find an excuse to make her compromise.

Compromise willingly.

After a long pause, Mei Shu stiffly nodded under his urging gaze.

Lu Si put his hand on her head and ruffled her hair. “Good girl, let’s go. I’ll take you out for something to eat.”

“No, I need to check on Lin He.” Mei Shu was worried that something might happen to Lin He at the police station.

“Jiang He is with her; you don’t need to worry.” Lu Si forcefully pulled her away without asking for her opinion, only letting go of her struggling hand when they got in the car.

Seeing her sulking expression, Lu Si’s heartbeat missed a beat, and he couldn’t help but look at her a bit more.

Mei Shu glared at him with annoyance. “Where are we going to eat?”

Lu Si turned to her with a smile. “I’ll take you for a candlelit dinner.”

When the two of them finished dinner and returned to the apartment complex, the streetlights were already lit.

Mei Shu was still a bit worried about Lin He and quickly called her. To her relief, Jiang He had already taken Lin He to the apartment she rented.

Only then did Mei Shu’s heart finally settle.

Lu Si gazed at her deeply. “I’ve always wanted to know why you care so much about Lin He?”

They weren’t relatives or friends, and Lin He was even the daughter-in-law of Old Wang. It didn’t seem right for Mei Shu to get too close to her.

But Mei Shu had gone to great lengths for her, renting an apartment below her family’s place, pretending to coincidentally bump into her every day, and trying to get closer to her.

The amount of effort she had put into it suggested that she had a deeper motive.

Mei Shu remained silent for a moment and then fixed her eyes on Lu Si. “You’re a man, and you won’t understand.”

“What do you mean?” Lu Si didn’t like the feeling of being excluded from her thoughts.

Mei Shu sighed and said, “Loving the wrong person comes at a painful cost, and that’s true for both men and women. It’s just that women pay a higher price when they love the wrong man. Do you understand?”

“I understand,” Lu Si said in a deep voice. “Perhaps you don’t know, but my mother was deceived by my father, which led her to a bitter end, dying without ever having an official status.”

“Isn’t Lu Li your biological brother?” It was the first time Mei Shu learned about this.

In the previous one, as for the Lu family, she only knew of Lu Yan’s existence.

She had never thought that Lu Si’s background was also full of tragedies.

“We only share the same father,” Lu Si explained with a wry smile. “You may think that I wouldn’t understand the pain of women, but in fact, I’ve experienced the agony of losing a close relative, which is no less painful than loving the wrong person.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly unfastened his seatbelt and leaned closer to her. The two of them were entangled in their breaths, continuously.

“Mei Shu, you have to believe that in this world, no one is more serious about you than I am. My feelings are not just empty words.”

His gaze was too intense, making Mei Shu feel flustered, and she quickly unfastened her seatbelt, stammering, “I… I’m going home. Thank you for bringing me back today. Goodbye.”

With that, she fled the scene.

In front of Lu Si, it seemed she would always be the one to yield first.

This kind of intense affection was hard for her to handle, and she was better off without it.

She still had a lot to do, and she couldn’t afford to waste her energy on elusive love.

Even in the elevator, her face was still flushed.

The confined space made it hard for her to breathe,

and she tried to calm down by taking deep breaths and cooling down her face.

The elevator doors opened with a “ding.”

Mei Shu was trying to regain her composure when she unexpectedly met a pair of hostile eyes.

Li Zhen had been waiting for her at her apartment door without her noticing.

Mei Shu frowned in displeasure. “What are you doing here? Haven’t you had enough from our last encounter?”

Li Zhen smiled ominously. “Mei Shu, imagine what Old Wang’s reaction would be if I told her you were staying here.”

This guy was truly annoying.

Mei Shu replied emotionlessly, “If you want to tell her, go ahead. But I can’t guarantee what I’ll do. You, of all people, know best what I’m capable of..”
