Lu Tingchen immediately got up when he saw how angry she was. "Don't take this the wrong way. I'm not planning on doing anything to you. I just wanted to be closer to you…"
Chu Jiu flipped over into a seating position. When she looked at the man's handsome face, it did not diminish her fury, but made her angrier instead.
What did he mean by wanting to get closer to her?
He had already laid down on her bed. This was the act of a hooligan.
A man and a woman being alone together in one room could easily become a source of accusation from others, yet he was doing something like this. What would this make her look like?
"Lu Tingchen, please conduct yourself with some self-respect."
When he saw that she was genuinely furious, he sighed and got off the bed unwillingly. "Alright." He quietly made the decision to get married to her as soon as they returned to the imperial capital. Otherwise, Chu Jiu would never allow him anywhere near her.
