C69 (1/2)
Luo Qingyu had left the Luo Family with Lu Junhao holding his hand, and he didn't know why but the words that popped up in her mind right now was actually the words ”the person in charge” and ”the person living till the end”.
In his heart, he thought to himself, ”Luo Qingyu, what are you thinking!”
After calming down, Lu Junhao walked in front of the car and helped his open the car door. Just as she was about to get on the car, another car also drove into the villa complex. Without even looking, one could tell that the person in the car was Xu Jisi.
Originally, he had been rather slow in getting on the car, wanting to maintain his elegance. However, upon seeing that he didn't have the mood to think about it, he closed the door after getting on the car.
Lu Junhao also did not pay attention to Xu Jisi.
Xu Jisi got off the car, and looked at the car as it drove away, thinking, it really is an excellent match, but you can only be mine.
The unwillingness to admit defeat was clearly written on his face.
Xu Jisi's gaze was fixated on the car that was driving away, but he did not know that Cheng Xiaowei had already sneakily arrived beside him.
”I still don't know when you became so deep in love, yet you're still so reluctant to part with her. Shouldn't I call her back for you to properly reminisce about the old days?”
When he regained his senses, Xu Jisi immediately changed into a frivolous look, ”What are you saying? Don't tell me you're the only one I don't know in my heart?”
As he spoke, he held Cheng Xiaowei's hand tightly, letting her feel his heartbeat.
Cheng Xiaowei's originally stiff attitude suddenly softened, and an embarrassed look flowed out of her eyes.
As for Xu Jisi, he had long since figured out this weakness of hers.
Being together with Cheng Xiaowei was not his real intention. Rather than saying that they like it, it's more like it was driven by benefits.
He still remembered that when he had interacted with Luo Qingyu, she had always been in an unorthodox state. No matter what he said, Luo Qingyu would always persevere.
He still had the Xu Group to save. If he were to fail, then it would truly be a crushing defeat, and there would be no way to save him at all.
Thus, he chose Cheng Xiaowei, who had always had a good impression of him.
Xu Jisi was well aware that Cheng Xiaowei and her daughter were not simple people. The more they looked like they smiled all day, the more empty and lonely they sometimes were in their hearts.
After successfully capturing Cheng Xiaowei, the two of them headed towards the organized location of the party.
Inside the carriage, Luo Qingyu looked at Lu Junhao, ”Is it because I didn't ask you, and you still don't intend to tell me that Xu Jisi will also go there?”
Hearing her angry voice, she said, ”It's just a party. What's the point of him going or not?”
Luo Qingyu wanted to tell Lu Junhao how much he wanted to tell him that he was Xiao Luo and that every time he appeared, he would remind his of that fire and the pain of his bone being corroded.
In the face of Lu Junhao's excuse, she had nothing to say.
Lu Junhao's face became extremely calm. Seeing that she did not say anything, Lu Junhao knew that his words had hurt her a little, because in his eyes, she was just a substitute for Xiao Luo.
”Sorry, I shouldn't have been so aggressive with my words just now!”
His apology caused the defense in Luo Qingyu's heart to suddenly collapse. If not for the fact that she was secretly telling him to be strong, she would probably be crying right now.
Perhaps it was due to her darned pride, she said, ”You're not wrong. Why must you apologize? I'm too sensitive!”
Before, Luo Qingyu thought that he was someone who enjoyed being loved by others, but now, she realised that his mouth could actually be this mean.
The two of them drove from the beginning of the journey to their destination without saying a word. When they got off the carriage, Lu Junhao was still very polite and graceful.
It was not so much an expression as an innate quality.
Luo Qingyu and Lu Junhao's noble feeling made others feel that the two of them were a match made in heaven, especially when they walked towards the banquet's main hall on the red carpet.
At this very moment, the two of them were truly a pair who walked over while stepping on the stars. None of the people at the banquet place weren't attracted by their beauty.
Being stared at by so many people, Luo Qingyu felt extremely uncomfortable. He wanted to pull his hand away from Lu Junhao's arm, but when he noticed it, he lowered his head and said softly, ”You have to do your best in acting!”
Hearing this, Luo Qingyu had a bad feeling. He clearly knew that all of this was fake, and he had also always been saying that all of this was fake. However, why was it that when this matter was revealed so openly, he still felt very comfortable.
She unconsciously lowered her head.
His whisper, her bow, happened to be seen by those present. The truth of the matter was known only to the two of them, but it seemed to others to be a form of shyness.
He could clearly hear the discussions of the people around him, and there were even people who spoke of their own experiences.
When they had just entered, Cheng Xiaowei and Xu Jisi had just come over. Although some of them were looking at them, their light had already been concealed by Luo Qingyu and the rest.
However, looking at Cheng Xiaowei's expression, she seemed to enjoy the treatment that was being watched by so many people.
As the gaze in her eyes rotated, she met Luo Qingyu's eyes once again. She smiled first, but there was a heart of darkness hidden behind the smile. Because she was thinking, the next step would be Luo Qingyu's countdown.
Party was in full swing, and it was clear that everyone was having a good time.
All along, Lu Junhao was not touched by a single drop of wine, and this time he was the same.
His friends with Lu Junhao all affectionately called him an old official, it seemed like he was really boring.
Deep down, Luo Qingyu was still a person who loved to play, so he didn't think much of it and simply drank a few more cups with these people.
