Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Luke listened to her earnest explanation. It was as if she was trying to cover up something. However, he was not

able to verify what she said, so he did not say anything.

It was getting darker. Luke glanced at the time on his watch and found that it was already 11 o’clock.

Luca’s stomach started to gurgle. He immediately looked at her when he heard the sound.

Luca touched her stomach, embarrassed. The sound came from her stomach. She never thought that after a few

months of living a comfortable life, her stomach would become so sensitive.

“You’re hungry?” Luke stood up, wanting to see if he could find anything to eat nearby.

There was a lot to eat in the mountains. Before it rained, he did not expect to be trapped here for so long.

“No, Mr. Crawford. Where are you going?” Luca saw him walk to the pavilion and stood up as well.

“I’ll head out to have a look. When we walked past the area today, I seemed to see a fruit forest,” Luke said.

Luca also remembered that there was a fruit forest with seasonal fruits hanging on the trees. However, it was not

on the side of the mountain road but deep in the mountain. The rain was not as heavy now but the mountains at

night were full of unknown dangers, especially on such a rainy and foggy day. One had to be careful when walking

on the mountain road.

“Mr. Crawford, it’s dangerous to go in like this, especially when we don’t have a flashlight. It’s not a good idea to go

look for food now.” She tried to persuade him to change his mind.

Luke frowned. If he left the mountain road, there would be no lights. It was indeed dangerous, but considering that

she was hungry…

When he thought about how she was hungry, his subconscious reaction was to find something for her to eat.

He had always been omnipotent. In a situation like this, all he could think about was to take immediate action to find

food for her.

“It’s fine,” Luke said.

Luca took out a water bottle that she had not drunk from all afternoon from her rucksack. “Mr. Crawford, I still have

glucose water. Don’t go, the mountain is quite scary at night.”

She thought that to dissuade Luke from going to look for food, she could only show her weakness. His clothes were

finally dry. If he went out and got under the rain again, she was afraid that his clothes would be wet the entire night.

After all, the fog on this mountain was so thick that the wind was moist.

When he heard that she was scared, Luke could not bear to leave her here alone while he went to the mountains to

find something to eat.

In desperation, he gave up the idea of going to the mountain to find food for her.

Luca opened the bottle cap, thought about it, and then summoned up the courage to ask, “Would you like to drink

some? If you’re hungry, you’re likely to lack sugar. Having some sugar will keep the body warm.”

Luke watched her hand over the water bottle again, and this time, he did not say no.

He took the bottle, then raised his head and poured some into his mouth. He did not drink much, just a mouthful.

Luca watched his movements and breathed a sigh of relief. Even though he did not touch the mouth of the bottle,

at least he accepted it.

When he handed the water bottle back, she also took a sip. When she thought about how the night was long, she

did not dare to drink more.

Seeing this, Luke frowned and asked, “Is this enough?”

“Yes, it’s enough.” Luca tightened the lid and put it back into her rucksack. “I used to go for training, so starving is

common…”

“Training?” Luke frowned. He thought that she was good at fighting, which was where her agility came from. Now, it

seemed that her agility was not all from practicing martial arts.

Luca realized that she had said too much and quickly said, “I’m interested in such things so when I have time, I’ll

participate in training camps. Mr. Crawford, I’m sleepy. I’m going to bed now.”

She avoided the topic with the excuse of being sleepy. She knew she had said too much.

Luke looked at Luca lying on one of the benches. She did not say a word and it seemed like she was asleep…

The long stone bench was by the edge of the pavilion. It was just enough for one person to lie down on. The rain

was not so heavy that it would splash in, so it was alright.

Luca lay down on the bench and kept an eye on Luke’s movements.

After lying down for half an hour, she opened her eyes and glanced around. Her gaze finally settled on Luke.

He was leaning against the railing and had his eyes closed.

On nights like this, there was nothing else to do but sleep.

Luca felt safe seeing that he was still here. She went back to closing her eyes to see if she could nap for a while.

It was midnight, and the temperature on the mountain gradually dropped. Luca woke up from the cold. She could

not stand it, so she sat up and curled up into a ball. She hugged her shoulders to try to warm her body.

The sportswear that she wore for mountain climbing was not too thick. The cold weather on the mountain was

making her shiver.

“Cold?” Luke’s voice suddenly entered her ears.

Luca looked over. The man who had been leaning against the railing had opened his eyes.

‘Is it because of my movements? Or did he wake up from the cold too?’

“A little…” Luca said softly as she stroked her arm.

“Come here.” Luke saw that she seemed to be very cold while sitting there alone. He felt bad.

He told himself that it was only tonight that such an exception would be made.

Luca looked at him, a little confused. ‘What is Luke going to do? Is he going to hold me?’

In the past, whenever she told him that she was cold, he would scold her for not paying attention to what she was

wearing. At the same time, he would take off his coat and put it on her.

However, at this moment, Luke was also wearing sportswear and did not have a jacket on…

Luca thought about it and walked over. The rain was not as heavy as before they fell asleep. It should stop raining

when tomorrow came.

Moreover, her phone was almost dry. In the morning, she could notify Jason and the others to come and help.

Luca walked over to him and sat down.

Luke pulled her into his arms.

Luca was shocked by his action and only spoke after a long time, “Mr. Crawford…”

“It’s just for tonight. You can’t tell anyone.” Luke’s tone was still cold. He would not have embraced her if she were

not shivering.

Although he was hugging her, his tone was distant. When she heard what he said, she knew that she did not have a

reason to lie to herself.

“Thank you.” Her heart was sore, but she could only thank him.

She thanked him for his concern, and at the same time, for his estrangement that let her know that this was not a

dream. It was reality.

The reality was that even if she could receive the warmth of his body, it did not mean anything. The warmth in his

heart belonged only to her former self.

Luca leaned into Luke while supported by his strong hands. She could still feel his warmth through their clothes.

Her body was warming up bit by bit.

Luca turned her head to the side, looked at the hand on her shoulder, and glanced at the time. In two hours, it

would be dawn…
