Three years after our breakup, you came back to China, and I'm just giving up. Why are you cryi

Chapter 52: I'll give you three minutes, or I'm leaving.

Pingdong Residential Area, underground parking lot.

After the designated driver left, Lu Hao turned to the side, gently pushed Su Yu, who was clinging to him, away a little, and said in a deep voice, "We're here."

He didn't look at her again, but instead pushed open the door and got out of the car, crouching down with his back to the door.

The slightly cool air in the underground parking lot cleared his head a little.

Inside the car, Su Yu's smile never faded.

Looking at this familiar posture, a hint of nostalgia and pride flashed in her eyes.

She endured the sharp pain in her ankle and slowly moved her body towards the back of the person behind her.

The moment her soft body pressed against him, her two slender arms naturally hooked around his neck.

Immediately afterwards, two majestic mountain peaks loomed overhead.

"Hmm!"

Lu Hao let out a muffled groan, nearly being sent to his death.

This woman, I haven't seen her for three years, she's gotten even more developed!

He cursed under his breath, gritted his teeth, steadied himself, and skillfully scooped up her pert buttocks and legs with both arms, straightening up as he walked toward the elevator.

"Lu Hao, what's wrong with you tonight?" Su Yu rested her chin gently on his shoulder, her voice soft and gentle.

"Are you out of your mind?" Lu Hao replied irritably.

"Yeah, you used to do that kind of crazy thing all the time."

Su Yu's voice was tinged with laughter, as if she were talking to herself, "Every time you act up like this, I always end up going drinking with you..."

At this point, she changed the subject, a sly glint in her eyes, "How about I have a couple of drinks with you when we go upstairs later?"

"No need," Lu Hao refused without even thinking.

He really wanted to down a few bottles of ice-cold beer, but he didn't dare drink with Su Yu.

A man and a woman alone in a room, drinking some alcohol, who knows what might happen if they get drunk?

Before, with Zhou Mengmeng, with Xiao Xiyue, and even with Lin Ran... it really depends on who you drink with.

Su Yu wasn't surprised by Lu Hao's immediate rejection; instead, the corners of her mouth curled up even higher.

Once inside the room, he had no choice.

The elevator dinged as it arrived at the 22nd floor. Guided by Su Yu, Lu Hao carried her to the door of room 2201.

Su Yu extended her fair index finger and gently pressed it on the fingerprint recognition area of the door lock.

"Beep—Verification successful."

The door opened with a click.

Lu Hao carried her into the room, went straight to the living room, and bent down to carefully place her on the sofa.

The room was filled with her unique perfume scent.

"Okay, I..." He was about to say "I should go" when Su Yu interrupted him.

"The medicine is in the drawer under the TV cabinet over there," Su Yu pointed in that direction, her posture languid.

Lu Hao looked in the direction she was pointing, and his brows furrowed involuntarily.

As the saying goes, if you're going to do a good deed, do it all the way.

Su Yu looked up at him, her bright eyes still damp with moisture, making her look pitiful. "Since you're here, can you help me rub some liniment on it?"

Looking at her like this, Lu Hao couldn't bring himself to say anything in his mouth.

Now that things have come to this, if he continues to make excuses, it will only make him seem guilty.

He let out a heavy sigh, resignedly turned around and walked to the TV cabinet, squatted down, opened the drawer, and took out a bottle of Huoluo Dieda Wine.

But when he turned around with the medicinal wine, he found that the scene on the sofa had changed.

Su Yu had already taken off her blazer and casually tossed it aside. The close-fitting white shirt underneath accentuated the full curves of her chest, making it even more impressive than he remembered.

This is not over yet.

In front of him, Su Yu's fair fingers pinched the buttons on her collar and slowly unbuttoned two of them.

The shirt collar was open to both sides, revealing a small patch of snow-white skin and a deep shadow.

"What are you doing?" Lu Hao's Adam's apple bobbed, and he asked instinctively, "Trying to seduce me?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yu gave him a charmingly disdainful look and chuckled lightly:

"You're so narcissistic. When I get home, I'll do whatever makes me comfortable. If I really wanted to seduce you, I would have just stripped naked. Why go through all this trouble?"

"..."

Lu Hao touched his nose and thought that what she said seemed to make some sense.

He walked to the sofa and sat down, placing the bottle of medicinal wine on the coffee table. His gaze fell on Su Yu's beautiful legs encased in black stockings, and his brows furrowed again.

How can you apply the medicated wine while wearing stockings?

Seemingly noticing his gaze, Su Yu's alluring laughter rang out again: "Haven't you had enough after four years of watching?"

Lu Hao curled his lip, too lazy to argue with her, and pointed to her legs: "Take them off, otherwise how am I supposed to apply the medicine for you?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Yu's expression instantly turned aggrieved, and even her voice softened, carrying a hint of coquetry.

"Brother... my leg is injured, I can't move it, how can I take it off..."

She blinked her big, watery eyes and said softly, "How about... you help me?"

Lu Hao's breathing suddenly became rapid, and his heavy panting echoed loudly in the empty living room.

"You used to help me undress a lot, you were even more skilled than me," Su Yu said lazily when he didn't react.

She even deliberately moved her injured leg, as if making a silent invitation.

Lu Hao felt his throat go dry and subconsciously took half a step back, widening the distance between them.

"The past is the past, and the present is the present." His voice was a little hoarse. "Our identities are different now."

He knew that if he reached out his hand today, all the nonchalant attitude he had put on for the past three years would become a complete joke.

The thread between him and Su Yu, which was almost broken, will be tied back tightly, and it will be a knot that is impossible to untie.

If they hadn't broken up back then, if he had kept his promise and worked hard diligently...

When she comes back today, I might be able to drive a nice car, wear a respectable suit, stand confidently in front of her, give her a firm hug, a passionate kiss, and a conversation that lasts until dawn.

Even the future is not something to worry about.

But all of this is an illusion.

He is now just an unemployed bum with no job and no savings.

Su Yu is an overseas returnee elite and a company partner.

The gap between the two is no longer a chasm, but an ocean.

"What? You're scared now?" Su Yu chuckled when she saw him hesitate. "Or is it that our handsome Lu has switched from meat to vegetarian food?"

Lu Hao suddenly turned around and walked to the balcony, pulling open the glass door of the French windows.

The cool evening breeze swept in, clearing his confused mind somewhat.

With his back to Su Yu, he tried to sound calm as he said, "I'll give you three minutes. If you don't take it off, I'm leaving."

There was no sound from behind, and Lu Hao didn't turn around.

He pulled out a cigarette case from his pocket, took one out somewhat irritably, lit it, and leaned against the cold railing, taking a deep drag.

He exhaled a cloud of sorrow and looked down at the night view.
