Why Did You Lie to Me?

[A cold, restrained beauty VS a bright, headstrong heiress]

"Big Brother Lu?"

Lu Jin pressed a finger to his lips, pinning him against the artificial rockery to signal that he should stay quiet.

Lu Chen frowned.

Sun Ningsang searched everywhere, but couldn't find anyone.

After she had gone far away, Lu Jin pulled Lu Chen along and hurried off.

"Big Brother Lu? Where are you?"

Lu Jin quickly pushed him into a small compartment inside the glasshouse.

"Why did you bring me here?" Lu Chen finally spoke.

Lu Jin leaned against his chest, peering out through the crack in the door to check what was happening outside. Hearing his question, she raised her face innocently. "Didn't you tell me to come find you?"

"When did I ever..."

"Then what did that look you gave me before you left mean?" Lu Jin cut him off, pressing him for an answer.

Lu Chen gritted his teeth, his back against the door. Her familiar scent filled his nostrils.

Lu Jin tilted her head back and ran a hand over his face. "I thought this was what you liked, Big Brother. It's so thrilling."

"Lu Jin!" Lu Chen pulled her hand away, incensed by her increasingly brazen attitude.

"Am I wrong?"

"I didn't..." Lu Chen turned his face away, his chest rising and falling. "You went abroad without even telling me."

"Are you angry?" He had one of her wrists pinned, so Lu Jin wrapped her other arm around his lean waist and cooed, "Don't be mad. I don't hold it against you for going on a blind date, so don't be angry with me, okay? I'm sorry."

"Would you care if I went on a blind date?"

"Would you want me to care?" she asked instead of answering.

Lu Chen pushed her away. This was always her trick: dodge the question and change the subject.

"All right, all right." Seeing that she had really angered him, Lu Jin hurried to make amends. "I brought you a present. No one else got one. Come with me and have a look, Big Brother."

"No need." Lu Chen coldly pushed her away, opened the door, and walked out.

Lu Jin hurried after him. "Big Brother, I've apologized. Just forgive me."

"A Jin, are you really serious about being with me?"

Lu Jin's smile faded.

"What do you mean?"

"Then tell me, have you told him you're breaking up with him?"

Lu Jin lowered her eyes and said nothing.

"When are you going to tell him?" Lu Chen couldn't help pressing her.

Lu Jin's silence was like a knife in his chest, leaving him bleeding profusely.

What was he to her? Just a secret lover she couldn't let anyone know about?

Reading Guide:

The heroine has had no sexual partners, while the hero has. The heroine is somewhat of a scumbag, so readers who prefer morally upright characters should proceed with caution. Of course, the hero and the other male character are completely innocent, both emotionally and physically.

The leads are not related by blood and are not registered in the same household.

The romance is still the main focus. The "second male lead" gets the girl and is willing to be the other man for love. The hero suffers, so readers who are devoted to the hero should proceed with caution.

The story is entirely fictional. Please don't apply it to real life.

Theme: Love that always bends over backward is not worth fighting for
