Chapter 241 - Secretly Met with Su Yicheng
Luo Xiaoxi’s mood was getting better, so when Qin Wei came, she was polite to him.
When Lao Luo saw it, he especially drove Mrs. Luo away and left the space for the two young people lonely. And he still remembered to tell Luo Xiaoxi and Qin Wei to have a good chat.
Luo Xiaoxi put on a smile, but it was so deliberate. “Dad! You can rest assured!”
She must, and would talk to Qin Wei well, and clearly tell everything to him!
She said, “Qin Wei, I don’t know why my dad so relies on you…”
Qin Wei’s lips couldn’t hold back but twitch twice. “The word is not used like this…”
“I don’t care!” Luo Xiaoxi waved her hand randomly, seriously telling Qin Wei, “I’m with Su Yicheng, officially. So, I can’t listen to my dad’s words to marry you.”
Qin Wei nodded and showed indifferent looks. “So?”
“So, I hope you can clarify it with my dad.” For the first time, Luo Xiaoxi talked to Qin Wei in a nearly requesting tone. “I know my father’s temper. In this case, only when you refuse to marry me, he won’t force me.”
Qin Wei smiled. “Xiaoxi, as long as your request, I will certainly not hesitate to satisfy you. But this one, I can’t promise you.”
Luo Xiaoxi stared at him. Qin Wei signaled her to be calm and added, “You listen to me. You and Su Yicheng… won’t last.”
Luo Xiaoxi’s look went cold. “Why are you so sure?” She showed signs of anger.
Qin Wei shrugged. “You will know it later.”
Luo Xiaoxi turned her head and didn’t say a word. Eventually, the two people ended the conversation in a bad atmosphere. Qin Wei went to Father Luo to play chess and chat, while Luo Xiaoxi went back to the room.
She refused to think about Qin Wei’s words, but when she thought of her father’s abnormality these days, a bad feeling rose. She always felt that there was something she should but failed to know…
Qin Wei stayed for lunch because Lao Luo insisted.
Luo Xiaoxi didn’t like it but dared not to show it all on her face. She could only keep silent. She ate more and talked less. Lao Luo intentionally or unintentionally tried to make her talk during the meal, but she still said few words.
He probably saw Luo Xiaoxi’s unwelcome attitude, so Qin Wei left after lunch, and Luo Xiaoxi sullenly held the phone and went upstairs.
“Wait!” Lao Luo shouted at Luo Xiaoxi. “Don’t think that I don’t know what you are thinking. Silent resistance is useless! Next time, if you are still like this, I will confiscate your mobile phone and you can’t even reach Su Yicheng on the phone!”
Luo Xiaoxi put the phone into her pocket and smiled. “Dad, you can rest assured, I will do this next time, and the time after the next time!”
“You!” Lao Luo’s fingers trembled because of anger.
Luo Xiaoxi made a face toward Lao Luo and quickly ran upstairs. Lao Luo yelled at her from downstairs. “I directly tell you, tomorrow, when you go out to work, bodyguards will follow you, and you can never secretly run to see Su Yicheng!”
Luo Xiaoxi stopped, but she did not look back. She straightly went into the room.
As soon as she closed the door, she felt upset.
Asking Lao Luo to let her work normally was to find a chance to see Su Yicheng, but it was obvious that Lao Luo knew her too well and had already found countermeasures.
No wonder he didn’t set up a door control, instead, he invited two tall bodyguards!
Couldn’t she see Su Yicheng during this period of time?
The next day, when Candy came to pick her up, Luo Xiaoxi looked unhappy. She started the minivan and the two bodyguards Lao Luo hired also immediately drove behind her. She sadly covered her face.
Candy said nothing when seeing this. She was busy with her own affairs and seemed to ignore Xiaoxi.
The problem for the street shooting was always changing clothes and poses. Fortunately, the photographer allowed Luo Xiaoxi to play freely.
Luo Xiaoxi might not be good at other things, but being taken photos for more than ten years, she was good at posing. The photographer was also very satisfied with her pose and kept flashing the camera.
They shot at a creative industry center with several cafes. In the middle of the session, the team picked a cafe to take a break. The staff arranged things and drank drinks in the open air, while Candy took Luo Xiaoxi inside.
The two bodyguards followed Luo Xiaoxi, and when she impatiently got up, the bodyguards immediately followed. She took a deep breath and deeply inhaled, saying, “I will go to the bathroom!”
The bodyguards looked at each other and eventually stopped, not following Luo Xiaoxi. Anyway, the bathroom was in the coffee shop, and Luo Xiaoxi wouldn’t be able to go out.
After washing hands, Luo Xiaoxi tidied the skirt, and gradually calmed down.
The two bodyguards merely listened to Lao Luo’s words, and she did not need to lose her temper on them.
She took a deep breath and walked out of the bathroom. When she passed a small room, her hand suddenly was caught. When she took a deep breath and was about to scream, suddenly a hand covered her mouth and dragged her into the private room.
She smelled a familiar smell.
“It’s me.”
This magnetic sound was also familiar to her, with a gentle style. It must be Su Yicheng, right?
Luo Xiaoxi blinked unbelievably and looked at him for two more seconds to believe. “Is it really you? How are you here… You are connected with Candy!” She’d thought that among so many cafes, why did Candy choose this one?
It was only after two days, but Su Yicheng found that he actually really missed this girl.
He didn’t like nonsense, so he directly circled his arms around Luo Xiaoxi’s waist and covered his lips on hers to taste her.
Luo Xiaoxi subconsciously surrounded Su Yicheng’s waist to stabilize herself and closed her eyes to respond to him. Slowly, her slender hands, like conscious vines, climbed onto his neck. They tightened and tightened again…
In these two days, she spent most of her time thinking about how to sneak out and see Su Yicheng.
It turned out that this was missing.
They didn’t have much time. Su Yicheng was wise to have not lingered on Luo Xiaoxi’s lips and just let go of her. “Have you apologized to your father?”
Luo Xiaoxi nodded, and she was not satisfied. “Now I am defeated by him!”
“He is not angry with you, but worries about you.” Su Yicheng rarely had the patience to persuade her. “You ran out in the early morning, and do you know how dangerous that was?”
“… I didn’t think so much at that time. I only thought that my dad was too strange, so strangely that he asked me to marry Qin Wei!” Luo Xiaoxi was still angry.
A complex emotion flashed through Su Yicheng’s eyes and he gently tucked Luo Xiaoxi’s hair behind her ears. “Your dad misunderstands me, and I will handle things as soon as possible.”
That uneasiness flashed on Luo Xiaoxi’s heart again. “What happened?”
Su Yicheng just smiled. “After I talk to your dad, I will tell you.”
Luo Xiaoxi was reluctant, but only promised. “Okay.”
Su Yicheng comforted her. “Don’t worry. Everything’s fine.”
In this case, Luo Xiaoxi could only choose to believe in Su Yicheng. “I am waiting for you!”
“Good girl.” Su Yicheng kissed Luo Xiaoxi as if rewarding a child with a lollipop. “Well, you should go to Candy first, or your dad’s bodyguards should be looking for you.”
“What about you?” Luo Xiaoxi’s long white fingers grabbed Su Yicheng’s clothes and a trace of reluctance flashed through her eyes.
Su Yicheng looked at her and said, “I’ll go back to the company.” He paused. “You don’t want me to leave?”
Luo Xiaoxi remembered that today was a workday, and she loosened Su Yicheng’s clothes. “No! Where are you going? The bodyguards are still outside. If they recognize you, I may not be able to go out.”
Su Yicheng raised his eyebrows. “The back door of the kitchen.”
Luo Xiaoxi was not intentional, but she couldn’t help but loudly laugh, with full achievement.
In the past, in order to see Su Yicheng, she racked her brain. Now it was finally Su Yicheng’s turn. He had swallowed his pride to enter from kitchen door just to see her!
She raised her chin. “What goes around comes around!”
After saying, she felt satisfied. She walked out of the private room and went back to have a coffee. “Oh, it tastes good.” Looking to the bodyguards standing on the side, she said, “Do you want to drink something too?”
It was the first time for the bodyguards to see Luo Xiaoxi smile, and they surprisedly shook heads. “No.”
Luo Xiaoxi did not force them. She slowly sipped on the coffee, while in the opposite, Candy, who was sending and receiving emails, suddenly said, “Happy?”
“Joyful!” Afraid of being found by the bodyguards, Luo Xiaoxi added another sentence, “I’m relieved!”
The afternoon shooting was extremely successful. No matter it was gentle, handsome, sexy, or wild, Luo Xiaoxi digested these styles so well. When wearing a black suit and rolling up her long hair, she was an able workplace beauty. When she put down her curly hair and put on a long dress, she was a graceful lady. Having taken another set of photos after dusk, they finally called it a day.
The photographer transferred the photos into the computer and nodded to Candy. “She’s very versatile. With good training, she’ll have a bright future.”
Candy smiled gratifiedly. “I hope she can prove herself with grades.”
Achievements were the most powerful weapon to cut down rumors.
When the work was over, the bodyguards didn’t allow Luo Xiaoxi to get in Candy’s car again. “Young Miss, Mr. Luo told us to send you back.”
Luo Xiaoxi felt crazy, but when she remembered that Su Yicheng told her to listen to Lao Luo, she finally got in the car.
When she just arrived, her mother anxiously waved at her. “Xiaoxi, come over!”
Luo Xiaoxi saw her mother’s other hand holding the telephone receiver and picked up the pace. “What happened?”
“It’s Jianan.” Mrs. Luo, who had always treated Su Jianan as her own daughter in the past few years, said with deep concern. “She sounds strange. I asked her, but she didn’t say anything and only wanted you.”
“I hope it’s not about Lu Boyan.” Said Luo Xiaoxi and she took the receiver. “Jianan?”
“Xiaoxi.” Su Jianan’s voice sounded weak. “Come to my place. Not Dingya Villas, I’m in Changde Road’s apartment.”
“You… you are not staying at home. What are you doing there?” Luo Xiaoxi was in a hurry. “Have you quarreled with Lu Boyan?”
“…” Su Jianan did not speak. She admitted it.
“Did he bully you?” Luo Xiaoxi carried the receiver between her ears and shoulders to roll up her sleeves. “Wait for me. I will go now!”
After saying that, Luo Xiaoxi hung up. She snapped, “Lu Boyan is looking for trouble!”
Mrs. Luo pulled Luo Xiaoxi. “What happened?”
“I will see Jianan. Something happened!”
Luo Xiaoxi picked up her jacket and flew out the door. Mrs. Luo could only shout behind her. “Calmly deal with the thing, don’t use force!”
Father Luo then came back and did not see Luo Xiaoxi. He doubtfully asked his wife, and Mrs. Luo truthfully explained, but he did not believe it.
“I picked up Jianan’s call!” Mrs. Luo couldn’t stand the suspicious look of her husband. She couldn’t keep a good manner now. “She felt so wronged that she couldn’t talk to me about it, and you still suspect her now! Who will lie about quarreling with her husband? Besides, even if Xiaoxi will lie, will Jianan? Will she?”
Su Jianan indeed couldn’t lie, and Father Luo has to believe it for now.
