Rebirth of Love: Jiang Ciyou's Counterattack Legend

Chapter 566 Lu Jingchen's further actions

Lu Jingchen did not stop his actions because of Jiang Ciyou's silence. He walked towards the wine table with an elegant and confident step. His gestures exuded a unique charm, attracting the attention of many ladies around him. He bent down slightly, and his slender fingers gently grasped the handle of the champagne glass, as if he was treating a rare treasure. Then, he stood up, turned around and walked towards Jiang Ciyou, his eyes always locked on her.

"Miss Jiang," his voice was low and magnetic, with a hint of gentleness, "we might as well let go of the unpleasantness of the past and enjoy the atmosphere of this banquet." A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but there was an elusive provocation in his eyes, as if testing Jiang Ciyou's reaction.

Jiang Ciyou's eyes fell on the champagne glass in his hand, and she was slightly startled. She hesitated for a moment, and countless thoughts flashed through her mind. On the one hand, she didn't know what the deep meaning of Lu Jingchen's move was, and whether he was planning something; on the other hand, she also knew that in such an occasion, a direct refusal might cause more unnecessary trouble. In the end, she slowly reached out her hand and took the champagne.

Lu Jingchen watched her take the wine glass, and a barely perceptible light flashed in his eyes. He moved closer to her, so close that Jiang Ciyou could clearly smell the unique scent of his cologne, which mixed with his own breath and had an intoxicating magic. "I know you are confused now," he said softly, a voice that only the two of them could hear, "but there are some things I want you to see with your own eyes."

Jiang Ciyou's curiosity was completely aroused. She frowned, her eyes full of confusion, and couldn't help asking, "What do you want me to know?"

Lu Jingchen just smiled without saying anything. He raised his glass slightly, and the action was extremely elegant. He gently touched Jiang Ciyou's glass, making a crisp sound. Then, he raised his head and drank the champagne in the glass. His Adam's apple rolled slightly, showing a different kind of sexiness.

Jiang Ciyou watched his actions, and the mystery in her heart grew bigger and bigger. She knew that Lu Jingchen must have a trick up his sleeve, and she could only passively wait for him to reveal the answer. She couldn't help but recall every bit of her time with Lu Jingchen. In those days, he was always full of surprises and mysteries, making her life no longer monotonous. But now, this mystery made her feel uneasy and panic.

She took a sip of champagne and tried to calm herself. At this moment, the music and the conversations in the banquet hall seemed to fade away, and only Lu Jingchen's deep eyes and the unsolved mystery remained in her world. She secretly wondered in her heart, would Lu Jingchen want to reveal the fact that she had supported him in the past? Or was there another more shocking secret?

Jiang Ciyou's husband saw Lu Jingchen and Jiang Ciyou so close, and his face turned very ugly. He clenched his fists tightly, his nails dug deep into his palms, and the jealousy in his heart was like a burning flame, almost swallowing him. He wanted to rush over immediately and separate the two, but he also knew that in such an occasion, impulsiveness would only make things worse. So, he could only suppress his anger and stare at Lu Jingchen with hostile eyes.

The guests around also noticed this subtle atmosphere and their discussions rose and fell.

"Look at those two people. There must be some hidden relationship."

"Jiang Ciyou's husband is in a terrible situation now. This situation is quite interesting."

“I don’t know what kind of story is hidden behind this.”

Jiang Ciyou felt extremely embarrassed when she heard these discussions. She knew that her reputation in this circle had been affected by her husband's betrayal, and now Lu Jingchen's appearance made her the focus of everyone's attention. She began to regret coming to this banquet. If she hadn't come, she might not have fallen into this situation.

Lu Jingchen didn't seem to care about the looks and comments of the people around him. His attention was always focused on Jiang Ciyou. He looked at Jiang Ciyou's slightly uneasy expression, and a ripple appeared in his heart. On the one hand, he wanted Jiang Ciyou to regret leaving and let her know that she was different now; on the other hand, he was afraid that his actions would really hurt her and make her stay away from him completely. This contradictory psychology kept struggling in his heart.

Jiang Ciyou took a deep breath and tried to wake herself up from her chaotic thoughts. She knew that escaping was useless and she had to face it head-on. She raised her head and looked at Lu Jingchen with a firm look in her eyes: "Mr. Lu, your mystification will only confuse me more. If you really have something to say, please speak up."

Lu Jingchen raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect Jiang Ciyou to be so direct. He was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Miss Jiang, some things need the right time and place to be explained clearly. I just want you to be mentally prepared first."

Jiang Ciyou frowned. She didn't understand what tricks Lu Jingchen was playing. Just then, a waiter walked by with a plate of exquisite dim sum. Lu Jingchen picked up a piece of dim sum and handed it to Jiang Ciyou: "Try this, this is the signature dim sum of this hotel, it tastes very good."

Jiang Ciyou looked at the snack in his hand, a little hesitant, but still took it. She took a bite, the sweetness of the snack spread in her mouth, but she had no intention of tasting it. She looked at Lu Jingchen, waiting for his next move.

Lu Jingchen couldn't help but laugh at her expression. He found that even after so long, Jiang Ciyou was still so cute in front of him, and it was so easy to make his heart beat. His eyes became more gentle, and he said softly: "Ciyou, I know that my sudden appearance before made you a little overwhelmed. But I really have no ill intentions."

Jiang Ciyou's heart moved. She saw a trace of sincerity in Lu Jingchen's eyes. But she still didn't dare to believe it completely. After all, the hurt was too deep. She put down the snacks in her hand and said, "Mr. Lu, the past is over. My life is very complicated now, and I don't want to be involved in more right and wrong."

Lu Jingchen's eyes dimmed slightly, he knew Jiang Ciyou was still avoiding him. He sighed and said, "Ciyou, do you think you can escape? What happened between us is not something you can forget just because you want to."

Jiang Ciyou felt a sharp pain in her heart. She knew that what Lu Jingchen said was true. But she really didn't know how to face this feeling. She turned around and wanted to leave this place that made her feel suffocated.

Seeing this, Lu Jingchen quickly reached out and grabbed her arm. His movements were gentle, but firm: "Ciyou, don't go. I still have a lot to say to you."

Jiang Ciyou stopped walking, her body trembling slightly. She didn't know how to choose, whether to stay and listen to Lu Jingchen finish his words, or to leave resolutely. Her heart was struggling fiercely, as if there were two voices arguing in her ears.

A voice said, "Stay, maybe Lu Jingchen really has some difficulties, maybe you still have a chance to start over."

Another voice said, "Don't stay. You've been hurt once. Don't take the risk again."

Just when Jiang Ciyou was hesitant, Lu Jingchen spoke again: "Ciyou, I know you are scared. But I promise you, this time, I will not let you get hurt again."

Jiang Ciyou raised her head and looked into Lu Jingchen's eyes. She saw firmness and determination in his eyes. Her heart gradually wavered. She began to think that maybe she should really give Lu Jingchen a chance, and also give herself a chance.

But at this moment, her husband suddenly came over. His face was terribly gloomy. He looked at Lu Jingchen holding Jiang Ciyou's arm and roared, "What are you doing? Let her go!"

Lu Jingchen frowned slightly, but he didn't let go of her hand. He looked at Jiang Ciyou's husband with disdain in his eyes: "This is a matter between Miss Jiang and me, and it has nothing to do with you."

Jiang Ciyou's husband was so angry that he was shaking all over. He wanted to forcibly pull Lu Jingchen's hand away, but Lu Jingchen's hand held Jiang Ciyou's arm tightly like an iron clamp. The atmosphere between the two of them instantly became tense.

The guests around saw this scene and gathered around. They all wanted to see how this farce would end. Jiang Ciyou felt extremely embarrassed and awkward. She struggled to break free from Lu Jingchen's hand and said, "Don't do this. It's not good for anyone to make a scene here."

Lu Jingchen looked at Jiang Ciyou, his eyes full of helplessness. He knew that now was not the time to argue with Jiang Ciyou's husband. He took a deep breath and said, "Miss Jiang, I will find another time to talk to you." After that, he turned and left.

Jiang Ciyou's husband looked at Lu Jingchen's back as he left, and his anger did not subside. He turned his head, looked at Jiang Ciyou, and said, "What is your relationship with him?"

Jiang Ciyou felt annoyed and said, "You don't have to worry about what happens between him and me. You should take care of yourself first." After saying that, she turned and left.

Jiang Ciyou came to a quiet corner, leaning against the wall, feeling extremely tired. She didn't know how to face Lu Jingchen and her husband, and didn't know how to make a choice. She just felt that her life had become a mess, as if she had fallen into an endless dark abyss.

Just then, a lady came over. She looked at Jiang Ciyou with sympathy in her eyes: "Miss Jiang, are you okay?"

Jiang Ciyou raised his head, looked at her, and forced a smile: "I'm fine, thank you."

The lady said: "I understand your feelings. In the world of love, sometimes it is really helpless. However, I think you still need to think clearly about what you want. Don't be swayed by others."

Jiang Ciyou's heart was moved. She felt that the lady's words made sense. She said, "Thank you for your reminder. I will think about it carefully."

The lady nodded and left. Jiang Ciyou stood alone in the corner, and she began to think seriously about her relationship problems. She knew that she couldn't escape like this any longer, and she had to make a decision.

She thought of Lu Jingchen's eyes and his words, and gradually some answers came to her mind. But she also knew that this decision was not easy, and she would have to face many difficulties and challenges.

At this time, the banquet was still going on, but Jiang Ciyou no longer had the heart to pay attention to it. She had only one thought in her mind, that is, how to deal with her emotional problems and how to find her own happiness again.

The author has something to say

In the creation of this chapter, I focused on depicting the complex and subtle emotional interaction between Lu Jingchen and Jiang Ciyou, as well as the impact of the surrounding environment and characters on their relationship. Through the detailed description of Lu Jingchen's further actions, such as handing over champagne and sending snacks, his inner entanglement and his concern for Jiang Ciyou are shown. At the same time, Jiang Ciyou's hesitation, confusion and inner struggle are also deeply reflected. Her dilemma between Lu Jingchen and her husband makes the plot more tense and full of tension. The discussions of the surrounding guests and the sudden intervention of her husband further promoted the development of the story and made the conflicts more intense. I hope that through these descriptions, readers can deeply feel the emotional world of the characters and the twists and turns of the story, immerse themselves in the plot of the novel, and pave the way for the subsequent development of the story.
