C41 (1/2)

Lu Junhao was shocked by her raised voice. He did not understand, why would the woman in front of him have such an overbearing reaction?

Luo Qingyu realized that he had lost control of himself. The anxious and scary look on his face disappeared, and his face slowly turned bright. A smile slowly surfaced on his face, ”Did I scare you just now?”

Lu Junhao nodded.

”I was just thinking, her experience is so miserable, the most important thing is that her parents are suffering too!”

Knowing that he would only get worse with each passing moment, he decided not to go any further.

Lu Junhao naturally understood the meaning of his words, ”Relax, I definitely will not let this matter pass just like this.” With that, he sighed and stood up.

She then fell into deep thought. Even after she had told Lu Junhao her crappy reason, she was still very uneasy in her heart.

When she was in Luo Family, how could she not understand her father's body? There had never been a place where he felt ill. Even if there had been more grief, she did not believe that her father would be defeated. There had to be some secret to it.

He couldn't help but suspect Xu Jisi and Cheng Xiaowei, thinking that they might be behind it. The two hands hanging by his sides had also unconsciously formed a fist.

Lu Junhao patted her shoulder as he looked at her somewhat panicking appearance.

She quickly got up, ”In the future, if Luo Family has anything, I'll have to trouble you with it!”

At this moment, Lu Junhao finally recovered from her sudden concern for the Luo Family and sized her up.

”Why are you looking at me like that, I am a doting old man. You said that I have the same surname as Luo Qingyu, and also live in the same city, and there are also people that I know who are similar. This is definitely a kind of fate, how can I not be moved?” After she finished explaining the reason in one breath, she panted heavily.

”You don't need to explain it to me.”

He was thinking, does he really understand, or is he trying to solve a riddle here?

Seeing that she was still staring at him, Lu Junhao wrapped his arms around her neck. As the distance between them narrowed, the atmosphere became increasingly tense.

”Let's go, if we don't go and pick up firewood, I'm sure by the time we get back, the two of them will truly be men at the top of the mountain.”

Like a piece of wood, she was held by him as he walked forward. She had only taken two steps when she suddenly retreated.

”Wait for me, I haven't taken the firewood yet!”

He was still not used to it just now, but the atmosphere instantly became relaxed.

Luo Qingyu tottered and picked up the firewood, then put it into the bag he had prepared earlier.

When he saw this scene, he was secretly happy in his heart, because only he knew that if they truly came to pick up firewood, there would already be someone urging them on, and this was all just Mu Zexi and Luo Tingting's little trick.

Seeing him continuously picking up firewood like he was a slave owner in the old days, he couldn't help but feel annoyed.

”Can you feel some sympathy for me? No matter what, I'm still a girl, do you just watch me work?”

”Didn't you say you wanted to thank me? Now that I have given you the chance, you can't not cherish it! ”

Hearing his shameless words, she truly regretted saying those words to him.

She would never go back on her word. Since she had already said it, there was no way she could go back on her word.

He could only swallow his teeth as he picked up firewood while mumbling something. These words weren't praise, so most of them were just blaming him.

”Be quiet, I heard everything!”

Ye Zichen continued to make people feel disgusted. It seems like Ye Zichen really believed too much in him. So it turns out that deep down, Ye Zichen was still so despicable.

He ignored him and focused on his work.

He calmly followed closely behind. It was unknown who was the carelessness of the two. The bag was obviously full, but why had they not walked out yet?

”Watch out! Make sure we didn't go back the way we came!” Her words caught his attention.

”That's right!”

”But why haven't we left yet? Why have we walked for so long?!”

She threw the bag on the ground. Honestly speaking, since she hadn't been tired since she picked it up, it would have been strange if the people behind her had forgotten. He must have been immersed in the joy of torturing himself.

Lu Junhao also started to mutter to himself. That was true, if he were to calculate it based on the time just now, he should have left already.

Looking at his unsettled expression, Luo Qingyu panicked for some reason, ”Have we gotten lost?”

When he asked, he completely forgot about the difference between a man and a woman. He grabbed his arm and began to shake it.

”Don't worry, I'll keep watching!”

As soon as he said that, she understood that he must be lost, that he was still pretending to be calm.

She couldn't help but get angry. ”I told you to watch the road. Watch the road. Did you feel especially good seeing me pick up firewood here?”

”Calm down, it's just that we're lost, not that our lives are threatened. It's okay!”

”You still say it's fine, but I don't care. I want to go out right now!”
