Chapter 343 Familiar Heartbeat
The group of six walked around the town of Smallville several times before finally leaving the bar, feeling unsatisfied.
Looking at the girl who looked like a puddle of mud lying on him, Lin felt an awkward but polite smile on his face.
"Lin, leave Tina to me?"
At the side, Lana, who was very good at observing people's expressions, couldn't help but whisper. She looked at Tina, who seemed to be drunk, intentionally or unintentionally, and no one knew what she was thinking.
This……
A smile appeared on Lin Jue's face. It was Tina who suggested going to the bar. It was also a new thing for Chloe who had never been there.
Under their instigation, several people rushed into the bar. The result was obvious. Tina's plan was successful. Lin Jue naturally knew whether the girl in his arms was drunk or not.
"Okay, I'll trouble you Lana then!"
"I'm not drunk!"
However, when Tina was being supported by Lana, she suddenly struggled. She looked at Lin Jue with some resentment, and Lana saw all of this.
Lana said seriously, "Tina, let's take you home first. We won't feel at ease if we let you walk on the road alone!"
"You are such a hypocrite!"
Tina angrily pushed away Lana's hand, and then walked home alone.
The people around Chloe also looked at each other. Except for Clark who was somewhat concerned about Lana, Pete was at a loss. Chloe looked at Lana with a subtle look, then looked at Tina who left, and finally her eyes stopped on Lin Jue. She seemed to have guessed something.
It was just a small disturbance, which did not affect the happy mood of several people today.
After saying goodbye to each other, Lin Jue walked towards his own manor on foot.
It was late at night and the road was deserted.
Buzz buzz buzz——
The roar from the motor echoed along the country road. At this time, Lin Jue, who was walking on the side of the road, did not realize what was about to happen.
It was not until he heard the voice behind him that he turned around in shock and looked in amazement at the sports car speeding towards him.
The bald young man sitting in the driver's seat looked "panic" and looked like he was completely unable to operate the vehicle normally.
Faced with such a critical situation, Lin Jue's "face changed drastically", the blood color on his face disappeared instantly, and was replaced by a pale color, as if he anticipated that he could not escape the tragic fate he was about to encounter.
"what--"
A shrill scream came from the back of the street, accompanied by the scream and Lex Luthor's flashing eyes. The steering wheel turned suddenly to the side, and the speeding sports car just passed by Lin Jue's figure.
boom!
The one that was still moving fell headfirst into a farm field by the roadside.
Lin Jue quickly ran towards the edge of the field and happened to see Lex Luthor crawling out of the field.
Behind him, the sound of hurried footsteps was becoming clearer and clearer. Lin Jue turned his head and saw that it was Lana who had followed him for some reason.
"Lin! Are you okay?"
Lana first glanced at Lin Jue, and when she saw that Lin Jue seemed to be fine, she looked at Lex Luthor who was climbing up from the ridge of the field, with a hint of anger in her eyes.
"I'm fine, but this guy might be in trouble!"
Looking at Lin Jue's face and the angry voice, Lana was stunned. It was the first time she saw Lin Jue angry.
However, instead of thinking there was anything wrong with this, she glared at Lex Luthor who had just climbed out from the ridge of the field.
"Lex! What on earth are you doing? What on earth just happened? You almost killed Lin!"
Lana was looking at the other party and started to yell angrily. She originally planned to talk to Lin Jue about Tina because she felt that Tina's intentions were not simple. She did not expect to see such a thrilling scene.
"Lex Luthor?"
Lin Jue pretended to be surprised, and then said in a deep voice: "A child of the Luthor family? Lex, didn't your father Lionel Luthor tell you the correct traffic driving rules?"
"Sorry, I lost control of my vehicle for some reason! Fortunately, nothing bad happened, right?"
Lex looked apologetic and looked at Lin Jue sincerely, as if begging for Lin Jue's forgiveness.
However, although Lin Jue was angry on the surface, he did not care in his heart. He did not think that the smart man in front of him would make the same mistake twice. The last time there was a real accident and he hit Clark, and he learned about his superpowers.
It was obviously a repetition of an old trick, trying to use the same method to test whether he was the mysterious man who suddenly appeared in the town of Smallville.
In this regard, Lin Jue was not surprised why the other party suspected him.
Considering the time when the mysterious man appeared and when he came to this town, it is hard for someone to associate him with him. However, Lin Jue did not think so. As long as he did not admit it, no one could easily prove his identity.
"Lin, let's go. This guy bumped into Clark last time, but nothing happened that time. But he almost bumped into you again this time?"
Lana, who was standing next to Lin Jue, said angrily. She had no intention of listening to Lex Luthor's explanation. She grabbed Lin Jue's hand with one hand and took him away from here.
"??"
Looking at the two figures striding away, the apologetic look on Lex Luthor's face disappeared, replaced by a calmness like dead water. His eyes were fixed on Lin Jue who was slowly walking away. Looking at the tall figure, his eyes were full of thought.
"Lex Luthor shouldn't be driving. He always has a cynical mentality. If it weren't for his luck these two times, he would have made a big mistake!"
Lana couldn't help but complain, she attributed everything to luck!
"Lana, why are you back again?"
Lin Jue interrupted the girl's complaints and asked with some confusion.
Lana was stunned for a moment, and finally came to her senses from her anger. Looking at her arm around Lin Jue, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes. She subconsciously separated them and spoke out her guess.
"Hmm, does this seem to represent another aspect of my charm?"
In response to this, Lin Jue couldn't help but jokingly said.
"But, Tina, my feelings are not pure. Anyway, Lin, you have to be careful."
Looking at Lana who seemed to be "meddling in other people's business", Lin Jue smiled.
"Okay, I'll pay attention!"
"..."
The two of them strolled among the fields, and unknowingly, as dusk fell and night fell, Lana brought Lin Jue somewhere unconsciously.
Look at the environment in front of you.
"Lana, this is not a place you should come to often!"
"?"
Lana was confused at first, then she reacted and was suddenly shocked. She had unknowingly come to her parents' cemetery. Looking at the towering tombstones around her, she didn't feel anything in her heart, but she understood what Lin Jue meant.
"Oh, sorry! I had so much fun chatting with you that I subconsciously walked to a place I often visit nearby."
Lana looked apologetic, but Lin Jue just waved his hand indifferently.
"No, this place must have a special meaning to you. Maybe you can talk to me about it."
Lin Jue had a gentle smile on his face, and seemed not to care that Lana took him to the cemetery.
Looking at Lin Jue, who was emotionally stable and always had a gentle attitude, Lana's heartbeat quickened slightly, but she quickly calmed down.
Looking at the tombstone not far in front of her, Lana's eyes were somewhat empty. "Mom and Dad, Lana is here to see you again. Today I brought a new friend with me. His name is Lin. He comes from the city of sin that has always been rumored by people, but he is not bad at all. He is even too good!"
Looking at the girl's gaze, Lin Jue deeply expressed what a confidant should be like. What's more, in the original series, the answer to Clark's reaction was right in front of him!
"Hi! Uncle and aunt! I'm your daughter's new friend. You don't know that Lana is very popular and outstanding in school. She is the girl that most boys pay attention to in the town of Smallville!"
"So do you like it?"
For some unknown reason, Anna couldn't help but blurt out something. Realizing that she seemed to have said something she shouldn't have, she quickly covered her mouth in panic.
Lin Jue continued with a smile: "Yes, uncle and aunt, I like Lana very much, but I'm sure you all know that Lana already has a boyfriend. What a pity, uncle and aunt, let me just complain to you a little bit... How could you create such a lovely girl?"
"Pfft!"
Seeing Lin Jue's frustrated and complaining look, Lana couldn't help but chuckle. Looking at Lin Jue who was praising her to her parents, Lana's eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist.
"This is the first time I see you like this!"
Lana couldn't help but whispered. She looked at Lin Jue with some surprise. Unlike his previous humble and sunny self, Lin Jue was witty and humorous today, which made her feel inexplicably touched.
Looking at the girl slowly approaching, looking at those bright eyes, a special atmosphere lingering between the two, Lin Jue suddenly spread out his arms.
"Beautiful lady, I can lend you my arms for a while. You know, all this is for the sake of my uncle and aunt!"
As he spoke, Lin Jue blinked lightly at the tombstone of Lana's parents, which made Lana, who was originally hesitant, no longer hesitate.
The moment she hugged him, a familiar feeling lingered in her heart. Lana's eyes flickered slightly for an instant. In this inexplicable atmosphere, Lana's heart suddenly pounded. She stood on tiptoe and wanted to kiss Lin Jue on the cheek. The moment Lin Jue turned his head, their lips touched.
Seeing that astonished look, Lana's eyes also flashed a trace of panic, but she did not let go of his hand. Instead, she subconsciously hugged him tighter, and their lips began to blend with each other.
