318 Dissecting Subject: Yu Youhan (1/2)
Su Qing had always thought like that about her off-and-on boyfriend's elder brother. He was too rigid and strict to be a lover or even a father. Usually, when you looked at him, you can see the stick that was too far in his as* sticking out, on several occasions.
And the placidness on his face told you 'Stay away I am a square!'. Despite his being an eye-candy neither Lei Xinyi nor Su Qing ever had a crush on him.
Lei Xinyi took another spoon of the pastries. This is what she liked about training with Li Yuan, no matter what she shoves in her mouth she wasn't getting fat.
She shrugged with a mocking smirk, ”And I was convinced he was going to hire me someday to make a clone of himself to succeed him and then tattoo on his back 'FYI, because I know there can't be a better genetic combination than me!'”
Su Qing paused to think a little then realized, he could probably do that, ”That's going to make a scandal though. The Lu girl was his cousin's fiancé like all her like.”
Lei Xinyi snorted and waved her away taunting, ”They are the filthy rich kind and on top of that deranged, these men practically own the air we breathe. Not even whisper will follow in fear that it reaches them.”
When she was saying that she was just relaying the truth. They were feared and no one dared mess with them in fear that they may inflate their wrath. No matter how they operated when they went to war, they went for it together!
She hummed and took some imported dried fruits from the table. The delicacies weren't something that she had seen before but by the way Lei Xinyi was throwing them to the swans below, they must be common for her. They looked like imported from Africa or something.
”The Lu girl-Do you think she can handle him? You know, it can very well be a kink for Yu Youhan. I daresay she wouldn't survive a day with all the roasting in society.” She pointed quizzically.
It wasn't common knowledge but Su Qing literally grew up playing in their backyard all her life and she knew them pretty well. Yu Youhan never did relationships, instead kept mistress to entertain his vanity.
Lei Xinyi shrugged with an unconcerned look, ”Yu Youhan isn't a guy who makes decisions on whims, he...” She thought for a while then shook her head, having assessed him, ”He is that clever fox that has his next nine lives planned. Though I like the girl a little too much, I wouldn't want to interfere in her life especially, with that ogre, least he comes to bite my as*.”
”Playing with her?” Lei Xinyi provided by cutting her off and completing her sentence with an eye roll, ”First off, I am not really interested to interfere with people f*cklife…”
”Love life!” Su Qing interjected, disconcerted.
With a scoff, she waved it off, ”The same thing! The girl needs to see the world for herself. If we escort her everywhere, this is what she will do all her life: Be escorted everywhere. If the relationship works out, she will get the preeminent man off the market and if it doesn't then she will get a heartbreak which is part of growing up! End of story!”
Su Qing stayed silent for a while then quietly spoke, ”You care about her.” It was a statement rather than a question, she knew what she was talking about. ”Or… you pity her!” She countered her own thought with a sneer.
It was a thing about Lei Xinyi many didn't know, she liked taking under her wing the neglects of society, the broken lost souls.
They reminded her about herself and she liked repairing them because that is what she did best, mend the broken. All her life she had mended bodies only to see them rot and then she started healing spirits.
He Zheng, a troubled teenager who was a rape-child with an abusive father and a mother who was in an abusive relationship and broken beyond repair, and Su Qing who was suicidal and ex-AA.
Lei Xinyi had snapped with suppressed rage, ”Drop it!” She gave her a half-hearted smirk then confirmed, ”If I pitied anyone of you I would have freed you from this awful world.”
Su Qing looked at her assessing her feature then opened her mouth to say something but decided against it. She was probably telling her the truth because she could kill her.
