Chapter 59: You Need to Know Your Place
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“I-I was just pa.s.sing by…”
Su Qianxun wanted to say that she came to look for Long Sijue. But when she noticed that Tang Zui was gesturing non-stop at her with his eyes, she was smart enough to withhold the truth.
Long Sijue stood still with a cold expression and did not look at her at all. A gorgeous and elegant woman was standing next to him.
For a moment, Su Qianxun did not really know what was going on. Since Long Sijue’s fiancée was around, why did he agree to let Su Qianxun come over?
“Let me take you somewhere to rest first.” Tang Zui approached Su Qianxun, grabbed her hand and was about to leave.
“Since she’s your friend, why don’t you invite her over to join us?” Long Aotian glanced at Su Qianxun with his sharp eyes, and when he saw her appearance clearly, his eyes darkened a little with desire.
The crowd continued walking forward.
Tang Zui quickly pulled Su Qianxun to the side to make way for them.
When Lan Qingcheng walked past Su Qianxun, her curious gaze fell upon the latter.
Su Qianxun naturally recognized Lan Qingcheng. She was the lady of the Lan family and was known as the most beautiful woman in Dragon City. When Su Qianxun saw her from up close, she was indeed worthy of the t.i.tle, for her beauty was simply breathtaking.
Su Qianxun furrowed her beautiful eyebrows. A question was lingering in his mind. Since Long Sijue already had such a beautiful fiancée, why did he sign a childbirth agreement with her? Was it because Lan Qingcheng was infertile?
Tang Zui saw her expression and a.s.sumed that she was jealous and upset.
“Chick, let me warn you. You need to know your place. You mustn’t fall in love with Jue! If you do…”
Tang Zui stared at her solemnly. If she were to fall in love with Long Sijue for real, she would certainly face grave consequences.
“Huh? What are you talking about? How can I possibly fall in love with Long Sijue? If it’s possible, I wish to give birth to a child right away and end the contract between us!”
Tang Zui was rendered speechless.
Even though Su Qianxun was speaking softly, Long Sijue had a far more acute sense of hearing than ordinary people. Therefore, he could hear everything the young woman said very clearly. The atmosphere around him grew even colder.
Lan Qingcheng looked at him with her beautiful, crystal-like eyes. “Jue, what’s the matter?”
“Nothing!”
Lan Qingcheng decided to stay quiet.
Su Qianxun absolutely did not want to be around those people. But Tang Zui knew very well that since Long Aotian had asked him to bring her along, he had no choice but to do so.
If Long Aotian became suspicious of Su Qianxun, there would be more trouble.
Su Qianxun was forced to follow Tang Zui and the others into a very s.p.a.cious as well as luxurious private lounge.
Once they entered the lounge, Long Aotian immediately called Tang Zui and Su Qianxun over.
“Young Zui, who is this?” Long Aotian fixed his gaze on Su Qianxun, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.
“Uncle Tian, this is my distant cousin who’s come to visit me. Young Xun, quick, come here and say h.e.l.lo to Uncle Tian,” Tang Zui said with a smile.
“Nice to meet you, Uncle Tian.” Su Qianxun bowed.
“All visitors are guests. Do treat your cousin well.” Long Aotian nodded. He did not ask any more questions about Su Qianxun, as if she was no longer a concern.
Tang Zui dragged Su Qianxun along and sat down in a seat that were the furthest away from Long Aotian.
“Can I get out of here? I don’t like this place,” Su Qianxun asked in a soft voice.
“Of course not! If you leave now, Long Aotian—that old thing—will definitely become suspicious of you!” Tang Zui leaned closer to her and whispered into her ear. As he spoke, it was obvious from his tone that he had no respect for Long Aotian at all.
Su Qianxun sucked in a sharp breath. She turned towards Tang Zui and whispered in disbelief, “He’s Long Aotian?! The master of the Long household?”
“Yes, chick. Why else do you think that I’m being so careful?”
The two of them sat very close to each other because they were whispering. As a result, they appeared extremely intimate.
