“Are you sure you don’t need me to carry you?”
He suddenly looked down and asked in a clear voice.
Luo Zheng looked up and made eye contact with him, feeling a strong urge to kiss him.
However, she had no choice but to hold herself back since there were outsiders around!
Am I sure? Psht, of course not!
But I can’t affect Mr. Bodyguard’s reputation. He definitely had a hard time becoming an arts professor at Capital University… Everyone in Capital University already knows that I used to court Xi Mubai so, I can’t ruin his reputation.
Luo Tingxue was exaggerating things but she was not wrong either!
“I don’t need… ”
“Can you walk on your own?”
Just as Luo Zheng was about to muster the courage to get out of his embrace, he asked her again in a deep and rumbling voice.
She began to hesitate again, for his embrace was too comfortable for her to leave.
Finally, she muttered, “I can walk if I try… ”
“If you can’t, don’t force yourself!”
To her surprise, he interjected again firmly.
Luo Zheng was a little dumbfounded and she wondered, why do my answers seem so useless?
Just as she was thinking about it, he asked, “Before we leave Capital University, can you hide your head in my chest?”
As long as she doesn’t raise her head, no one will be able to recognize her!
Luo Zheng’s eyes lit up and she stared at him with a radiant gaze. “Yes, yes, yes! Brother Cheng, I definitely can… ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she snuggled into Bo Hancheng’s embrace to hide her face.
Upon sight of the situation, Luo Tingxue forced a lopsided smile and said, “In that case, Mr. Bo, may I trouble you? Zheng is feeling unwell, shall we take her to the hospital? As her cousin, I feel really worried for her… ”
Luo Zheng thought to herself, worried about me?
Hah, of course she’s worried that I might snatch Bo Hancheng away!
However, I want to get closer to Mr. Bodyguard. How am I supposed to do that with Luo Tingxue around?
Hence, she looked up and smiled at Luo Tingxue. “I am really touched by your concern, cousin! However, I just have a little ache in my lower abdomen, which is not a big deal. I just need to rest for a while. I don’t need to go to the hospital. ”
Luo Tingxue looked at Luo Zheng and almost couldn’t restrain herself from losing her composure. She nodded and said, “That’s good.”
Luo Tingxue was prideful too. Hence, she decided to stop harping on it and instead, turned to look at Bo Hancheng. “Mr. Bo, it’s still raining and you’re going to be drenched. Take this umbrella with you.”
Had she not known that Luo Tingxue was infatuated with a mysterious man and almost went crazy in her previous life… she might have been willing to matchmake her and Bo Hancheng instead of intentionally separating them.
Bo Hancheng did not grab the umbrella and instead looked down at Luo Zheng. “Do you need an umbrella?”
Mr. Bodyguard, are you stupid? She obviously wants to give you an umbrella, not me!
Luo Zheng sighed and thought, he has a really low EQ.
She then shook her head stubbornly and risked offending Luo Tingxue. “I’ve already gotten wet way before this so I don’t need an umbrella.”
“Tingxue, she doesn’t need an umbrella. You may keep it for yourself.”
Bo Hancheng carried Luo Zheng away after answering her coldly.
Before leaving, he glanced at Xi Mubai who had remained silent in displeasure.
The eldest son of the Xi Family whom the little imp has a crush on is so pathetic!
Watching as he carried Luo Zheng away, Luo Tingxue tightened her grip on the umbrella as her fingernails dug deep into her flesh.
She didn’t believe that Bo Hancheng couldn’t tell that she offered the umbrella to him because she cared about him… Yet, he only asked Luo Zheng for her opinion and he decided not to take the umbrella from me because she said she didn’t need it!
Hah, how am I inferior to Luo Zheng? How!?!
For a long time, she stared at Xi Mubai and couldn’t help but ask, “Mubai, Luo Zheng clearly loved you so much! How did she have such a sudden change of heart? Did you… hurt her feelings?”
