Chapter 408: A Competitor has Arrived (1/2)
Bai Luochu initially wanted to test Pei Qingfeng’s patience and make him leave. But unexpectedly, Pei Qingfeng sat there quietly and looked at her instead.
Bai Luochu was unable to endure the silence any longer and said, “Enough, enough, enough. Let’s go back inside.” Bai Luochu turned around and walked towards her room.
Pei Qingfeng quickly followed behind her, afraid that she would fall down while walking.
By the time Pei Rumo entered the courtyard, he saw Bai Luochu returning to her room with Pei Qingfeng following closely behind.
Even though they weren’t hugging each other, Pei Rumo felt a sense of irritation deep in his heart. He quickly walked forward to insert himself between them before saying, “Luo Chu, let me send you back to your room.”
Pei Qingfeng almost threw Pei Rumo out when he appeared but he managed to swallow his indignation when he thought about how she would be unhappy if the two of them fought with each other again. “Pei Rumo, Luoluo has already agreed to let me take care of her. You should trust me and return to your room...” Pei Qingfeng said as he stopped Pei Rumo from following them.
Of course, Pei Rumo didn’t expect Bai Luochu to agree with Pei Qingfeng so easily and he immediately revealed a doubtful expression, “Luo Chu, did you really agree to let him take care of you? Did he threaten you or something?!” But before she could reply, Pei Qingfeng answered in her stead.
“Hey, what are you talking about? How can I possibly threaten Luoluo? Even if you’re not clear about my personality, you should be familiar with Luo Chu’s temper. If she doesn’t want to do something, no one can force her to do it!”
Pei Rumo remained in denial and continued, “I would like to hear the answer from Luo Chu. You can keep quiet now.”
When Bai Luochu saw the two princes quarrelling again, she started to feel her head throb. “Shut up and listen to my explanation!”
After the words left her mouth, the two of them recalled that she was standing beside them. It would be a whole lot worse if she had thrown them both out and they quickly fell silent.
Pei Rumo replied, “Of course we’ll listen to you. Did we annoy you by speaking too loudly to each other?”
