Lu Fang was clinging to Andrea as he took her to the seat beside him. After settling down, he pulled her chair even closer and put an arm around her. Unfortunately, the same seat was right across General Lei. She knew she could not ignore him so she smiled at him hoping that was enough, but she could only hope.
The man in front of her cleared his throat and finally spoke, "Andy, How have you been? We have not seen each other for a while now."
Suddenly the air in the room became a little colder and everyone seems to be looking at both Andrea and the General.
"Oh, how nice. General Lei, you know Andrea?" Christina managed to break the silence and asked eagerly. She thought it was good that they were acquainted and just maybe Lu Jie would lighten up to Andrea.
"Yes, of course. I know Andy well…" He smiled and took a sip of water after responding.
He could see how tense Andrea was and sensed she was worried about letting Lu Fang know about him or their relationship.
"I know Andy very well because we used to date." He calmly said as he starts to cut through the meat on his plate.
Andrea's heart began to race as she looked at the man beside her, his lips pressed together and his eyes narrowed looking straight at General Lei.
"About 2 years ago. Haha. That was a really long time. Right, General Lei? I had almost forgotten about it." Andrea said as she held Lu Fang's other hand and gave it a firm grip.
The General was satisfied with Lu Fang's reaction and replied, "Yes, definitely. It has been a long time. There is no need to get jealous, Lu Fang."
"Of course! It is all in the past. I'm glad that you made that clear, General." Lu Fang tried to force a smile and held Andrea even tighter then immediately gave a peck on her forehead before whispering to her hears. "Someone is going to get punished... in bed tonight."
Andrea gulped hearing this, but thought it would not be so bad getting punished in bed. Right?
"Well, I guess coincidences happen all the time. Now, let us enjoy the meal everyone." Mrs. Lu did a great job at breaking the ice and so the rest of the dishes were brought to the table.
"Ah, spicy pork ribs! I love these and I know you love them too, Andy. Here you go!" General Lei said as he placed a piece on her bowl.
Andrea began to throw daggers at him with her eyes. She could not believe such a reputable person is capable of doing shameless acts. He is deliberately trying to make Lu Fang jealous!
"Aren't these your favorite?"
"No. They are not! I like Pesto Chicken!" Andrea tried to deny.
"You ate a whole plate months ago when we met in Thailand!"
Lu Wei, "…"
Christina Lu, "!!!"
Gao Rou, "!!!"
Lu Jie, "Haha! This is going to be an interesting conversation."
"No, we did not go to Thailand together, I was there on job with Hanxi and you happen to show up." She immediately turned to Lu Fang and said. "I swear, babe."
"Yes, indeed. I'm sorry if that had caused any misunderstanding. We met there by accident. No reason to worry, Lu Fang."
Lu Fang grabbed the entire plate of the spicy pork ribs and placed it closer to them.
"Thank you, General Lei, for reminding Andrea of her favorite food. From now on until I die, I will be the one to feed my future wife."
WIFE? WIFE? WIFE! WIFE… The words kept repeating to Andrea's head. Then with the use of a chopstick, he fed Andrea a piece and she smiled at his gesture. She knew exactly what he was doing. She too was burning with anger while thinking how could this man imply they were that close! She needed to make her man win this battle and so she made sure to focus her attention only to Lu Fang. He also did the same by feeding her all throughout the entire meal.
Everything was starting to get better when Lu Jie became interested in Andrea. He thought how could a normal bodyguard be able to date a man like General Lei? The man was highly influential and his family came from a long line of high ranking soldiers and politicians. So he did some probing himself. "General Lei, how do you know Andrea?"
"Ah, well. Our families are close. We go way back… Something that cannot easily be erased." He smiled at Lu Jie and back to Lu Fang and Andrea.
Andrea looked at both men and could see lightning coming out of their eyes. How she wished she was sitting beside General Lei. He would have already gotten bruises on his body.
"Well, we have those too and you are right General, close friends of families cannot be erased. They remain to be close friends… just friends."
When the people inside the room had finished their meal, Andrea excused herself to go to the washroom and Lu Fang accompanied her. Just as she entered the ladies room, the man followed and locked the door behind them.
"Lu Fang, you – "
Her lips were instantly sealed with a kiss. He pinned her down against the door and forcefully slamming his mouth wildly against hers. He was so rough that she could feel his teeth against her small mouth. She felt like she was going to be swallowed whole sooner or later.
"Lu Fang, wait…" She tried to get off him but he was not listening.
He began to go down her neck and left a visible kiss marks while he squeezed her breasts aggressively.
"Ahh… No… Babe, not here… Please…"
"Lu Fang? Andrea? Are you both in there? Get out right now!" Christina Lu came knocking at the door.
The man had to stop but just before he opened the door he checked his bite marks and when he saw they were bright red, he smiled and said, "Perfect."
"I cannot believe the two of you. Seriously? In the Ladies room? I was once young so I know exactly what you were doing!"
Andrea could only look down while being scolded by Mrs. Lu. Lu Fang, however, was unaffected and he simply fixed his collar and Andrea's dress, making sure everything was in place.
"Mom, please. We are both adults."
Christina sighed in disbelief of her son and suggested, "Just stick to dressing rooms, will you? They are a lot more comfortable!"
"Hurry up! Your father is waiting for you!"
