A fashion queen

The three of them trudged forward, each step heavy and deep, as if carrying a heavy burden. Lu Yu frowned, pretending to endure the excruciating pain in his leg, but his eyes never left Cui Xueying. He studied the girl so closely, furtively and attentively, his heart awash with a mixture of indescribable emotions.

He really didn't expect that this seemingly weak woman would actually return to save him in such a dangerous situation. This would save him a lot of trouble. At least he wouldn't have to send his men to capture her with all his heart. It can be said that there is a road to heaven but you don't take it, and there is no door to hell but you insist on breaking in! Hehe, Lu Yu sneered in his heart.

They didn't know how much time had passed, it felt like a long century before they finally arrived at a place that looked relatively safe. The staff member who had been leading them on this arduous journey, constantly avoiding various dangers, breathed a long sigh of relief as if a huge burden had been lifted off his shoulders.

He raised his hand to wipe the beads of sweat from his forehead, then turned to look at Cui Xueying and said slowly, "Miss Cui, we are temporarily safe now. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."

Cui Xueying nodded vigorously at him with gratitude, her lips slightly raised, revealing a gentle and moving smile, and said softly: "Thank you so much, if you hadn't led the way, it would have been difficult for us to get out. Thanks to you this time, if we have the chance to meet again in the future, I will definitely thank you again!" She knew very well that as a staff member on the scene, there were still many important matters waiting for him to deal with.

Hearing Cui Xueying's sincere words, a relieved smile appeared on the staff member's face, and he responded with the same smile: "This is all my job, and it is my honor to help you. Then let's say goodbye. I wish you all the best!" After that, he waved to Cui Xueying very politely, then turned and strode away.

Not long after he turned and left, Lu Yu, who had been standing silently beside Cui Xueying like a statue, finally moved. He first moved his lips slightly, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. After a long while, he slowly opened his mouth.

Then, a slightly hoarse and noticeably weak voice emanated from him. It was so light, as if a gentle breeze could blow it away, yet it reached Cui Xueying's ears clearly: "Thank you, Miss Cui. If you hadn't been so determined and persistent in bringing me out with you, I'm afraid my condition would be even worse right now..."

Although his voice was low, almost breathless and ready to break at any moment, if one listened carefully, one could sense the profound sincerity and deep-seated gratitude in his voice. This emotion surged like a surging tide, almost ready to burst through the constraints of his words and pour out without reservation.

After hearing this, Cui Xueying only smiled faintly, a smile that resembled the most gorgeous peach blossoms in bloom in spring, delicate and beautiful. At the same time, she responded in a very soft and gentle voice, "Don't be so polite. This is what I should do."

At this moment, Lu Yu seemed to be under a spell, and his eyes could not help but be fixed on her smile. That brilliant and warm smile seemed to turn into a dazzling light, shooting straight into the deepest part of his heart.

In an instant, his heart, which had always been as cold as ice and as hard as rock, began to melt and soften, and even beat faster uncontrollably, one beat after another, powerfully and rapidly.

Lu Yu's heart moved. He had never seen such a special woman. In the intrigues of the business world, he had long been accustomed to indifference and hypocrisy, but Cui Xueying's kindness and innocence deeply touched him.

"Why did you come back to save me?" Lu Yu finally couldn't contain his doubts and asked. He stared at the woman before him, trying to catch a glimpse of her true thoughts in her beautiful and deep eyes. How could such a pure and kind woman exist in this world? Or was she just trying to set a good example in front of the public?
