Chapter 323 Save me

[Grand Hotel Function Hall]

After hearing Elliot Gong\'s jolly dismissal, everyone pretended to do go back to their own small circles. Alas, everyone constantly shot Lexi and Ethan Lu a glance, because from what they saw those two weren\'t afraid to show their public display of affection in the middle of the hall. Hence, each and every circle of young masters and young misses could not help but spout their shock by this revelation.

"Gosh… do you think Master Lu would come at me as well? I, this stupid mouth of mine ran off by its own again!"

"I don\'t know, dear. Good luck to you and your family."

"Is that really Ethan Lu?" One of the young misses clad with shining pieces of jewelry intently watched the lovely couple in the middle of the hall. To her, Ethan Lu seemed to transform into a different man. He appeared a little childish as his ear to ear grin never left his lips not even once.

"Poor Stella Du. She thinks too highly of herself and now, her land crash made her more ugly. Haha."

"So, Lexi Yang is Master Lu\'s lover to begin with and not Elliot Gong? That\'s unexpected."

"Man… what a waste. I should have met Miss Yang earlier."

"Tone it down, bro. Master Lu might hear you— you can\'t take the outcome if he does." One after another, conversations about their own opinions filled each circle along with their frustrated sigh of being left out. After all, men who had their eyes on the gorgeous Lexi Yang the moment they laid their eyes on her felt regret for not meeting her earlier. Now that she was with Ethan Lu, they would definitely leave them no chance to compete with him.

On the other hand, aside from just admiring Ethan Lu from afar, women from the higher social ladder could only diss her for just having a pretty face inside their mind. Perhaps, all women who had taken a liking to this powerful and influential man had the same thought at the moment and insecurity among them surged inside their hearts. However, due to what happened to Stella Du and Ethan Lu\'s words, that served as a warning to each and everyone of them who didn\'t like Lexi.

Moreover, Lyrick Jiang who was Ethan Lu\'s right-hand man listened when Lexi spoke. And Ethan Lu as well when Lexi made him stop from punishing Stella Du with just a single word. Hence, everyone was careful about their comments and could only hope for them to break up. Surely, the higher class elites were filled with selfish minded people who only thought about their own benefit and climbing higher on the social ladder.

Amidst the discussion about them, Lexi and Ethan Lu shunned everything as they headed to their own little world that only they could enter. When Lexi unhesitantly wrapped her arms around him, Ethan Lu\'s heart fluttered as the grin on his lips grew brighter. Not to mention, her last teasing remarks sent electric shocks through his every nerve in his body— awakening a lustful love desire right there and then.

"My love, are you sure you\'re going to tease me now? I might not restrain myself." Whispering back, Ethan Lu stroked her exposed back and traveled his fingertips to her sexy spinal line as he drew his head back from her shoulder.

"I am not teasing you," Chuckling, Lexi slightly shook her head as she guessed the impact she had caused to this man before her.

"*sigh* How can I not love you?" Ethan Lu let out a defeated sigh as his eyes carefully traced her facial features. Slowly, his grin turned gentler as he thrust his head forward… kissing her soft lips for a second. "Love, thank you for choosing me." As he drew his head back again, his gaze softened as he was utterly grateful for her appearance tonight.

All of his overthinking… all of the scenarios in his mind and vivid emotions just thinking that Lexi might not come slowly dissipated in the inbound breeze of the function hall. His still trembling hands slowly slid down and intertwined with her slender hand.

"Silly. Did you really think I\'d cower in fear and leave you alone?" Sharing the same tender gaze, a subtle smile formed on the corner of her lips. "I am disappointed that you have that little faith in me…and to us." Although she was a little disappointed, Lexi\'s bottomless love towards him triumphed at the moment. Well, she could not really blame him and his fears. After all, having just a glimpse of the Lu Family, Lexi would be lying if she said she was not afraid even just a tiny bit. But, with him, with the trust they built and the love they had shared within these fleeting months, she believed that they could overcome anything.

"But, thank you for giving me a chance to choose. I appreciate it, Ethan."

"Thank you," Cupping her cheek with his other hand as he gently caressed it with his thumb, suddenly, his eyes seemed to sting. He felt emotional as his eyes had more liquid building up making his eyes to sparkle a little. He had no words to say as he was overwhelmed with her existence and being blessed to be a part of her beautiful life.

Seeing this, Lexi could not help but slightly bit her lower lip to restrain her urging laughter. Truly, he was sometimes a softie for being teary-eyed at this situation. She was moved that Ethan Lu, his sincerity and love never once changed through the course of these short months.

"I love you, Ethan Lu." out of nowhere, these words escaped her mouth as her heart dictated her mouth to utter these sweet and never getting dull words. Granted that they only shared a few months of togetherness, alas, Lexi experienced almost everything with him. Be it overflowing love, steamy lovemaking, their short trips together, and heartwarming meals… she had never been this content and happy.

It was as if her time together with him could never be compared to the rest of her twenty-three and a half years of her existence.

Of course, the person near the two named Elliot Gong could not help but roll his eyes by hearing every loving word they exchanged. Being reminded of a certain someone, Elliot Gong sneakily took a photo of them together and sent it to Rika Song, saying:

"Save me." Alas, what response he got from his traitor friend was, "Aww… so sweet

"Why did I even bother to hear her request." He lowly grumbled as Rika Song relentlessly nagged him to keep her updated about the event as she could not go and Lexi would surely be super busy at the moment. Hence, she could only bother Elliot Gong who was surely the one who be stuffed by dog food.

He then glanced at the two again and for some reason, he sighed. In his eyes, he never once saw his friend Ethan Lu or Lexi be this happy. Even back when Lexi was still with Morris Liu, he never saw her smile like how Ethan Lu makes her smile.

\'What an unexpected turn of events…\' He murmured inwardly because no one would have thought that Lexi and Ethan Lu would really click.
