Sweet Whirlwind Romance: Sir, Would You Like to Be My Partner-In-Marriage? novel Chapter 8

The air in the car suddenly crackled with a strange tension.

Mu Ling, who was driving, collapsed into silent laughter. His shoulders shook as he tried his best to control his mirth.

He would have laughed out loud if Lu Shijin hadn't shot him a warning look from the back seat.

Tang Ruochu's cheeks had turned bright red and even her slender neck was stained with a faint blush.

Lu Shijin's eyes suddenly darkened as he added, "There's no need to worry. I don't like to take advantage of others, so I won't touch you until you're ready."

He said this to alleviate her embarrassment but this was also a promise.

Tang Ruochu immediately let out a sigh of relief.

She looked at him gratefully. This was the first time she felt that she had made the right decision to marry him.

He was a true gentleman and he wouldn't touch her if he had promised not to do so!

She trusted him because he was Lu Shijin.

He wasn't like Ji Yinfeng.

Ji Yinfeng wasn't a man of his word. He had promised that he would only touch her after they were married but he kept dropping hints that he wanted to sleep with her before marriage.

Lu Shijin was the complete opposite. He could have utilized his position as his husband to coerce her into bed, but instead, he promised that he wouldn't force her and he was even willing to wait until she was ready.

Tang Ruochu was secretly thankful that she had chosen to marry him.

"Thank you, Mr. Lu!"

"You're welcome."

The car stopped as they were talking and Lu Shijin glanced outside before he said, "We're here."

Tang Ruochu was surprised when she followed his gaze and realized where they were.

They were in front of a restaurant known as "Sea Galaxy".

"Sea Galaxy" was located in the suburbs and the restaurant was built on a hill. It was very spacious and surrounded by many tourist spots and hotels. It had a great view and was tastefully and lavishly decorated. There was even a private observatory at the back that was meant for customers to appreciate the city lights or gaze at the stars while dining.

This was why the "Sea Galaxy" was extremely well-known within Beining City and there was usually a month-long waitlist to secure a seat at this restaurant. It was also the favorite haunt of Beining's rich.

"Let's head in," Lu Shijin said.

He had stepped out of his car without her noticing and had even opened her door for her like a true gentleman.

As Tang Ruochu stepped out of the car with her head bowed, she couldn't help saying, "You should've told me that we were coming here earlier, then I would've changed into a better outfit."

Lu Shijin shot her an appraising look and said placidly, "You're a natural beauty, so you'll look good in anything. You look good enough as you are."

He was telling the truth.

Tang Ruochu was a true beauty and gave off a bookish air. Her looks were elegant and refreshing and she had a perfectly proportionate figure. She also had very good taste in fashion, so she still looked very gorgeous even in the outfit she wore to work.

Tang Ruochu paused in surprise before she said with a laugh, "I didn't expect such words of praise from you."

This was the first time she smiled since that incident.
