Master Hong’s Lucky Bride - Chapter 101 - Because I Like...

Cen Shuang smiled and said, “You lost a month’s worth of food to me. If I were to bring her along, you would have to take care of two people. I would be very embarrassed.” Although she said that she was embarrassed, she did not eat like a bird.

Li Jun pursed his lips and said, “Can you teach me a few moves tonight?”

Cen Shuang ate the food on the table without hesitation. She nodded when she heard that. “Why did you only start learning martial arts now?”

Li Jun lowered his head and ate the food in front of him. Suddenly, he raised his head and said, “Because of you!”

Cen Shuang stopped eating in confusion. “Because of me?”

Li Jun said seriously, “A girl like you can defeat gangsters, but I, a man, have to hide behind you. I can’t accept that.” Li Jun lowered his head and poked at the food in front of him. He said shyly, “More importantly, I’ve never seen a girl so brave and fierce.”

Li Jun’s gaze fell on Cen Shuang, and her heart could not help but skip a beat. “Really? Senior, I’m full. I’ll bring these back for Mu Sensen. She’s waiting up.” Cen Shuang was afraid that he would say ‘I like you’ in the next sentence, which would make her feel even more guilty for betraying Zhuang Hong.

Li Jun was taken aback. He nodded and said, “Alright.”

Cen Shuang handed the leftovers to Mu Sensen and returned to the Zhuang family’s residence immediately. On the way back, she wondered if she had fallen into Li Jun’s trap. She knew that he would lose, yet he was willing to treat her to a month’s worth of food. Cen Shuang thought of the days she had spent with Li Jun. When they were together, his eyes seemed to be fixed on her. Was she blind? She had not noticed it before. With frustration, Cen Shuang returned home and stood at the bedroom door. She hesitated, wondering if she should confess this matter to Zhuang Hong in advance.

Suddenly, Zhuang Hong’s voice came from behind the door. “How long do you want to stand at the door?”

Cen Shuang bit her lip and pushed the door open carefully. Zhuang Hong sat upright on the bed and was typing. Cen Shuang moved towards him slowlybut stopped by the bed. “How did you know I was back?”

Zhuang Hong stopped what he was doing and looked at Cen Shuang’s face. “You stood at the door and didn’t come in because you feel that you did something wrong. You have a guilty conscience. Someone in school has confessed to you.”

Zhuang Hong’s face was dark and his gaze was sharp. He could clearly see the little secret in her heart. “The kid who confessed to you has put you in a difficult position?”

……

Cen Shuang looked at Zhuang Hong with admiration. “How do you already know everything?”

Zhuang Hong looked at Cen Shuang. Usually, there were only two types of confessions that would put a woman in a difficult position. One was to confess that this person was not an ordinary classmate. The second was that she herself had feelings for this boy, but for some reason, she could not accept it.

In Zhuang Hong’s opinion, Cen Shuang’s impending confession was the second type. However, at this moment, Zhuang Hong wanted to know what Cen Shuang was thinking. “Tell me the truth. Do you like him? If you like him, I will help you get what you want. After all, my family arranged our marriage just to give me a happy ending.”

Cen Shuang was stunned when she heard this. She thought about it carefully and shook her head. “I don’t like him.”

Zhuang Hong felt relieved when he heard this. At the same time, he suddenly called her name in a serious tone. “Cen Shuang.”

Cen Shuang was stunned. He used to call her Shuang Shuang, but this was the first time he called her by her full name. She looked at Zhuang Hong seriously and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Zhuang Hong looked at her seriously. “Do you think I like you?”

As soon as Zhuang Hong finished speaking, Cen Shuang felt as if someone was prying into her secrets and extricating all her thoughts. It felt as if she was being exposed, and she panicked. She shook her head vigorously. “No, it’s not like we got married voluntarily. Why would you like a little girl like me?”

After saying that, she tugged at the corner of her clothes. This had become a habit of hers. When she was feeling uneasy, she would always fidget like this.

Zhuang Hong looked at her lowered head and smiled. “Who says I don’t like you?”

Cen Shuang suddenly raised her head and looked at Zhuang Hong with twinkling eyes. She was exceptionally beautiful. “What did you say?”

Zhuang Hong grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her into his embrace. He rolled over until he was on top of her. He said in a low voice, “Did you hear what I said?”

Zhuang Hong leaned in closer. He lowered his head and looked at Cen Shuang who was locked in his embrace. He smiled and said, “I’ll say it once more to make sure you hear it?”

Cen Shuang’s face was red. For some reason, she nodded. They were both adults. Although they were young, they knew what would happen if they continued like this. She should have shouted for him to stop. However, she could not say it out loud. She felt a hint of anticipation. Cen Shuang felt like she was gradually sinking deeper into the abyss. Even though she knew that she and Zhuang Hong were from two different worlds, she still could not help but want to get closer.

Zhuang Hong’s movements came to an abrupt stop. He looked at Cen Shuang who was beneath him and frowned slightly. “You’re still young.”

Just as he was about to get up, Cen Shuang suddenly wrapped her arms around him tightly.
