Chapter 366 – Backstabbing
TL: xDh20, LifeisaJourney
“Hey! Are you done yet? Do you enjoy bullying a lady? If you really have guts, then you should fight me instead!” Qiu Zi felt sickened from overhearing the lover’s quarrel.
Nearly everyone within the village knew that Qiu Zi was LuLu’s superfan. Ever since they’d reached The Trembling World, Qiu Zi had been trying to court LuLu, but he was completely unsuccessful.
LuLu would turn down most of his courting requests. This led Qiu Zi to wonder if LuLu had someone she valued in her heart already. Upon listening to the quarrel between Liu Gan and LuLu, Qiu Zi finally understood why he had been denied all this time; someone else had occupied a precious place in her heart already. Now this person dared to show up uninvited to his village!
If he didn’t vanquish her lover, then how else could he speak with pride after this! Even as a chess piece, he had pride that he couldn’t throw away. He enjoyed the glory given to him by Zhao Nan Shan, but for this incident regarding LuLu, he has to prioritize his pride over Zhao Nan Shan’s order.
To maintain his image in front of others, especially LuLu, Qiu Zi contained his jealousy internally. Up to this point, he hadn’t displayed any signs of aggression. He felt it was more important to uphold the image of a gentleman and show compassion. If he proclaimed to provide justice in the name of LuLu, it would be a righteous reason.
It was very clear that LuLu and her lover weren’t on friendly speaking terms, so there was no need to add in extra triggering words. If the two continued to argue, their relationship would deteriorate. It would reach the point where the relationship could not be amended. That is when Qiu Zi would have a real chance at LuLu’s heart.
In the Trembling World, it was hard to find a beautiful and independent woman like LuLu. Even though LuLu had a heart-breaking relationship, Qiu Zi decided to forgive her. No one could blame her, but it was unfortunate that she didn’t meet him earlier.
“Stop messing around. Even if we continue this argument, it is pointless. It will only lead to other people misunderstanding and it will destroy your image!” Liu Gan was trying to convince LuLu.
“I am a stupid woman! I am a pig! So what can you do about it? You won’t even pay attention to me…” LuLu continued to cry. When a woman suffers painful heart breaking relationship problems, they won’t care about something so trivial like a proud image.
Liu Gan might have berated her by saying she was stupid like a pig, but she can’t seem to muster up the anger to hate him. She even wondered if she had Stockholm syndrome. There were better-quality suitors that loved her, but she only liked this cold, heartless man with a rotten personality.
“Comfort her! No need for such heartless words…”
“Yeah! Fifth Elder treats you right, how can you be so cold to her?”
“Big man ideologies!”
“Men that don’t know how to treasure…”
“Rather than stand there and watch her cry, say something pleasant to comfort her…”
