Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 40

“Mr. Lu, I’m not sure we have the same understanding about marriage.”

Jenny takes care of her clothes and sits on the sofa, and Luke sits opposite her by the tea table.

“The same understanding?” Luke looks up at her, “Who else is better to be your husband than me?”

“Ah?” Jenny’s jaw drops and her mind goes blank.

What’s his logic?

“It’s not about better or not, listen, we knew each other just a month ago.”

“How long would be better?”

“It’s nothing about time.”

“Oh?” Luke looks at her with mysteriousness.

Jenny looks shocked and wishes to clap herself, recalling her illogical words.

It gets silent in the living room and Luke doesn’t mean to start a conversation. And Jenny can’t recover from his jokey answer. She thinks hard, lowering her head, before saying this a while later,

“Why on earth would you marry me?”

“We’re a good match.”

Luke adjusts the way he sits and slows down his speech, as if he was determined to win this negotiation.

Jenny finds the conversation can’t go any further.

“Forget it. We can’t even talk, can we?” Jenny stands up and puts an end to the conversation, “Mr. Lu, please leave. I don’t think it necessary to continue.”

She’s certain that she won’t get married with the man who she knew two weeks ago. She’s not the impulsive type of person.

Sensing the somewhat impatient look on Jenny’s face, Luke stands up, “You should give it a thought.”

“Why?” Jenny can’t help laughing.

“I’m a perfect match for you in terms of my look and my family background. What’s more, I can guarantee you a promising future in the entertainment circle.”

Jenny didn’t give a thought about his proposal but his guarantee makes her a little interested.

She’s well aware of the hidden rules in the entertainment circle. She’s just too new to meet many of those. All she wants to do is focus on acting, but she is forced to attend various activities as the company arranges and play second banana with senior actors, and she is constantly blamed for newsjacking.

But if she got married with Luke, would it be different from the hidden rule?

Jenny frowns, scared by the idea.

What is she thinking about? Getting married?

Is she insane?

“Mr. Lu... I don’t think it’s a good idea. I’ll work on my own.’

She clenches her fingers, looking thinner in the big black and white shirts.

Luke throws these words to her, “You’ll have time to think about it.”

He doesn’t give the exact time, but Jenny finds it embarrassed to ask since she rejected him. But his words put the whole thing to an endless loop.

So she grits her teeth and continues to reject him, raising her head, “I don’t think it necessary, Mr. Lu.”
