Chapter 1034: Of Course I’ll Protect Her

“I’m sorry. It’s all my fault.” Yan Su felt so guilty.

If she had known what would happen, she wouldn’t have made that toast.

Mo Liuxi looked at her and said, “If I don’t even have the courage the protect the woman I like, what makes me a man?”

Yan Su paused briefly.

Recalling how he’d trounced Mr. Jia in front of everyone else, she was deeply touched.

She was away from home. She’d been alone for four years. Every time she’d been bullied, she’d coped with it herself.

It was the first time a man had protected her at any risk.

He was young and reckless, but he was also brave.

She raised her head to look at him. He was also looking at her. His eyes were as bright as stars. She could see her own reflection in those eyes.

Her heart leaped heavily.

Suddenly, she thought of s.h.i.+ Xiang.

He told her that he liked her. Just a couple of hours ago, he’d asked her to go back to him.

However, when she’d been in a difficult situation, even Ji Nuanyi, someone she had only seen a few times, had stood up to help her. But he was missing.

Before, s.h.i.+ Xiang couldn’t help her. He’d always been busy at all sorts of events for his career. He was never there for her before. But this time, he’d only been a few tables away from her. He must have seen what happened to her.

She gave herself a bitter smile.

Was that the man that she used to love?

Thankfully, she hadn’t accepted him that afternoon.

Mo Liuxi didn’t miss any of the micro-expressions on her face. He was delighted. He’d said what he said on purpose. Making her feel touched wasn’t his first goal. What he wanted the most was for her to clearly see that s.h.i.+ Xiang was nothing but a coward.
