Chapter 317: 317. The irritable Queen Qiao

His mouth curved into a teasing smile, using her earlier words intended to annoy Lu Xintong to shut her up.

Qiao Xu’s face darkened, and she looked somewhat uncomfortable. "Lu Xintong always comes to disgust me, so why can’t I do the same to her? You took it seriously."

Qiao Xu gave him a disdainful look and sat back down in her seat.

But Lu Moqing was not so easily dismissed. He stood in front of her, put his hands on the chair’s armrests, and confined Qiao Xu between him and the chair.

"You even kissed me."

"So what? It was just a kiss. Do you want me to compensate you?"

Qiao Xu looked at him with a hint of mockery in her gaze.

Seeing Lu Moqing squint his eyes, a dangerous glint appeared in his deep eyes, "Don’t you know that I’m a vengeful person? I can’t let you take advantage of me that easily."

Qiao Xu felt somewhat uncomfortable being confined in his embrace, especially with Lu Moqing’s close breath making her feel at a loss.

She pushed him away from her, feigning nonchalance as she stood up from the chair. "You already took advantage, so what do you want?"

Leaning on the desk behind her, she stared into Lu Moqing’s restless eyes, barely suppressing the turmoil in her heart.

"Of course, I want to take it back double."

As his words fell, Qiao Xu felt a tightness around her waist as she was pulled into Lu Moqing’s strong embrace.

She clenched her teeth and cursed silently, raising her head, "Lu... Mmm."

Her lips were instantly sealed by Lu Moqing’s sudden kiss.

Her eyes widened in anger, struggling in his embrace. However, Lu Moqing seemed unwilling to let her go. The more she struggled, the more aggressive his kiss became.

At this moment, Qiao Xu didn’t know what this kiss meant to Lu Moqing.

From the instant their lips touched, it felt as if his heart had been struck by electricity, both sore and numb.

Her taste, sweet with a hint of sourness, easily struck his heart, just like every other time.

This feeling grew clearer with each encounter.

"Xuxu..."

Only when Qiao Xu felt like she was running out of breath, did Lu Moqing let her go, providing her with a brief respite.

But the hand that wrapped around Qiao Xu’s waist remained unyielding.

He was afraid, afraid that the moment he let go, she would leave recklessly, just like four years ago.

He didn’t want to argue anymore; they had been arguing for the past eight years, and there was nothing worth arguing about.

Wasn’t he just making himself suffer by continuing to argue?

"Let go."

Qiao Xu clenched her teeth and forced herself to ignore the unclear sentiments in that word, her face turning angry.

"I won’t."

"You..."

Qiao Xu was so angry that she gritted her teeth, not caring about the wound on his head. She picked up a file folder from the pile on the desk and raised it to hit Lu Moqing’s face.

Lu Moqing dodged to the side, his gaze full of grievance as he looked at her. All the deep affection he had vanished in an instant, replaced with clarity.

"Are you trying to murder your husband?"

"Bullshit!"

Qiao Xu couldn’t help but swear, "You’re just an ex-husband!"

Lu Moqing was amused by her explosive temper. He held on to Qiao Xu’s hand even tighter, so unwilling to let go that he even moved closer to her.

Qiao Xu instinctively retreated, her hand accidentally bumping into the files piled up behind her. A photo frame hidden behind the pile fell to the floor with a crash.
