Chapter 495: Chapter 344: I Won’t Let Go of Your Hand Until You Let Go_2

Da Ha cooperatively shrugged his shoulders, deciding not to get out of the car or move it. He stayed nearby, watching the romantic exchange, enduring the discomfort of being a third wheel for several minutes until he was full to bursting.

However, it worked in his favor because he previously bet with Gu Li and still owed her a “secret about Sister Qian.” So, he promptly videoed what he saw and heard that evening and sent it to Gu Li via WeChat.

“Boss, here’s the explosive news about Sister Qian. Don’t forget to delete it after watching.”

After sending the message, Da Ha quietly chuckled.

But soon, his smile disappeared as a thought crossed his mind.

Oh no!

Those two are heading to his house. Would he hurriedly go home, only to become the unwanted third wheel?

Of course, the answer was NO.

Da Ha scratched his fluffy head, deciding that he might as well be a good sport, and opted to stay at a hotel. Afterward, he could just get Sister Qian to cover the cost.

…

Murong Qian and Lu Cong were being affectionate at the gate of the residential complex, completely unaware that Da Ha had seen them and even sent the information to Gu Li.

Being held in Lu Cong’s arms, feeling his steady and powerful heartbeat, Murong Qian was brimming with a sense of happiness.

On the way back to the 23rd floor, both of them remained silent, but their understanding of each other seemed incredibly profound.

So, as soon as they entered the room and the door closed behind them, Lu Cong lifted her onto the cupboard in the foyer, held her head, and kissed her passionately.

Murong Qian did not refuse. After all, there was no need for grown-ups to talk too much about love; actions often speak louder.

But, her sense of rationality eventually won.

“No, you can’t…”

Caught up in her feelings, Murong Qian turned her head aside, dodging his kiss.

Not anticipating her refusal under these circumstances, Lu Cong was slightly taken aback. Upon realizing the situation, his heart grew cold, “Sorry! I was too forward.”

After saying these words, he let go of her, fixing her slightly disheveled shirt. He pretended to be indifferent and said, “I am leaving. You should rest early.”

As he prepared to leave, she grabbed his hand, “This is Da Ha’s house. He may come back at any time, so…we should be careful.”

The sincere explanation from the girl instantly brought sunshine to Lu Cong’s cloudy mood.

He turned his head and saw her holding his face with both hands, smiling through her tears, “Lu Cong, I agree to give us a chance. I cannot guarantee that I can stick with you until the end, but I promise that I will not let go of your hand until you do. Are you satisfied with this answer?”

“What…what did you say?”

Lu Cong blinked, hardly believing his ears, “Can you say that again?”

“I said… I am willing to be with you… ”

Before she could finish her sentence, she was silenced by his kiss.

She lifted her hand, intending to push him away, but then changed her mind, not having the heart to do so.

She decided to indulge herself a little more and hoped that Da Ha wouldn’t return home too soon…

They shared a long, passionate kiss. When Lu Cong finally let go, Murong Qian felt like she was running out of oxygen.

“In the future, don’t kiss me for so long!”

She touched her slightly swollen lips, warning him in irritation.

Lu Cong’s eyes sparkled with amusement, which he could not hide, “As you wish, Mrs. Lu!”

“Humph, I haven’t even agreed to marry you yet.”

The term “Mrs. Lu” accelerated her heartbeat, yet the problems between them hadn’t been resolved yet.

At this thought, a trace of disappointment passed through Murong Qian’s beautiful eyes.

Seeing her frown, Lu Cong couldn’t help reaching out to smooth her brows, asking with concern, “What’s wrong? Are you worried about my situation?”

“Perhaps.”

Murong Qian was hesitant whether to tell him about the past or not.

Lu Cong, oblivious to her thoughts, jokingly reassured her, “Don’t worry, if worst comes to worst, we can elope.”

“Elope?”

Murong Qian laughed at that, “That’s an interesting idea.”

“I’m serious. With my medical skills, even without the Lu family, I can still support you and provide a good life. Qianqian, marry me, I assure you, you won’t regret.”

Lu Cong proceeded with his marriage proposal.

Murong Qian was touched and in the heat of the moment, she held out her left hand before him, “Where’s the ring? Put it on me.”

“…Okay.”

Lu Cong hadn’t expected the proposal to actually work. When he took out the exquisite diamond ring, his finger was shaking with excitement.
