“This is between me and her, it’s none of your business. Also… stay the hell away from her!” Long Sijue stared at him expressionlessly.
“Who are you to tell me to stay away from her? She doesn’t belong to you. She is a free agent. I don’t care what your current relationship with her is… I’m telling you now, I like her. I want to pursue her! No matter how you try to obstruct me, I won’t give up!” Rong Yebai said and strode off.
Long Sijue stood still, clenching his fists tightly, thinking about the fact that Su Qianxun let Rong Yebai prepare her outfit for the award ceremony.
…
In the ward, Su Qianxun played with Lin’er for a while and coaxed him to sleep. After all, he was injured, and the medication was making him sleepy. Besides, having a good rest would be good for his recovery.
Long Xiluo kept staring at her with a probing gaze. Su Qianxun pretended that she did not notice that. She got up and said, “Since Lin’er is asleep, I should head back now. I haven’t thanked you for your help last time.”
“Don’t misinterpret the situation. I didn’t do it for you. I just have a feud with Lan Qingcheng, so I took the opportunity to teach her a lesson,” Long Xiluo said expressionlessly.
Strangely enough, her demeanor was just like Long Sijue’s.
‘The feud between her and Lan Qingcheng… it probably means the two of them are love rivals?’
“I still have to thank you. I’ll leave you to look after Lin’er. I have to head home for now.” Su Qianxun walked towards the room door. Long Xiluo stared at her with a complicated look in her eyes.
When Su Qianxun came out from the ward, Rong Yebai was waiting for her. He saw that she was out and immediately walked over to grab her wrist. He said, “You have nothing else to do now, right? Come with me. We are going to try some dresses. The award ceremony is tomorrow. If the dress doesn’t fit, we still have time to tailor it.”
“But now is not the time…” Su Qianxun thought that he had a point. She immediately looked towards Long Sijue, who was standing across the hallway. She was not sure if he would allow that.
“Why are you hesitating? Do you want to go on stage to receive the award tomorrow in an ill-fitting dress?” Rong Yebai dragged her towards the elevator.
Tang Zui and Si Mancheng were already in the hospital since early this afternoon. Hearing what Rong Yebai had said, they looked at Long Sijue. ‘Didn’t he just order a dress for Su Qianxun for the award ceremony from Luther? Why is Su Qianxun wearing the dress Rong Yebai prepared for her?’
“Jue, didn’t you–”
Before Tang Zui finished his sentence, Long Sijue stopped him from keep going.
Tang Zui and Si Mancheng were anxious. ‘Why is he always like this? He always refuses to tell her about what he has done for her. If he doesn’t say it out loud, how the h*ck she knows?’
Su Qianxun wanted to talk to Long Sijue about the dress, but Long Xiluo came out of the room to speak to Long Sijue. The young woman thought that he probably did not have time for her anymore.
Rong Yebai dragged Su Qianxun away.
Long Xiluo watched Rong Yebai take Su Qianxun away. She crossed her arms and said with a cold, prideful look, “Your taste in women has seemingly improved this time.”
“Luo Luo, didn’t you come back to marry Jue this time?” Tang Zui asked nervously.
“That depends on my mood,” Long Xiluo replied flatly and went to see Elder Long.
Tang Zui and Si Mancheng exchanged glances. They seriously did not understand what was on Long Xiluo’s mind. ‘Is marriage a decision that depends on someone’s mood?’
By the time Su Qianxun and Rong Yebai arrived at the lower floor, she withdrew her arm with force and said, “I can walk on my own and you should too. Stop dragging me around.”
“You silly chick. You’re currently a star on the rise. If you start a dating rumor with me, it’ll bring your career to the next level. Get it? I’m helping you!” Rong Yebai snuggled up to her again.
“I don’t need this!” Su Qianxun ducked away. Ring Yebai continued to edge towards her.
The two of them were walking out of the elevator. Another group of people was also sashaying out of the elevator next to them.
