Chapter 663: What You Said Earlier Was Humiliating to Her
“Rong Yebai, let go of me this instant!” Su Qianxun glared at him furiously.
“Why would I let go? Who is he to you? Why are you so nervous?” Rong Yebai glared back at her.
“I can chop off your hand if you don’t want it anymore.” Long Sijue looked at him expressionlessly. The cold air around him was chilling.
“Spare me the theatrics. Other people are afraid of you, but I’m not! If you want me to let go of her, then tell me who she is to you. What is her place in your life?”
Rong Yebai stared at the man before him and asked.
“It’s none of your business!”
Long Sijue and Su Qianxun replied in unison.
Rong Yebai was dumbstruck for a moment.
Long Sijue looked at Su Qianxun. The young woman shoved Rong Yebai’s hand off her shoulder with force. She was calm, but there was a hint of anger in her voice as she said, “Whatever it is between us is none of your concern!”
Long Sijue looked at the sullen expression on her face. The look in his eyes became as deep and tumultuous as a whirlpool in the sea. He reached out and pulled her into his arms.
“You… are so gullible! I asked him that because I was looking out for you! He has a fiancée. Who are you to him?” Rong Yebai was so enraged that he nearly blew his top.
“That’s my business. I don’t need you to look out for me. You and I aren’t that close.” Su Qianxun’s eyes reddened slightly. Once she was done with him, she dragged Long Sijue away.
“Fine. I was a busybody, alright? Don’t come to me crying if things go wrong!”
Rong Yebai watched as Su Qianxun left with Long Sijue. He turned and said to George in the distance, “Why is she like that? I’ll never mind her business again. Call me a pig if I ever do!”
“I don’t blame Little Xun’er. What you just said earlier on was really humiliating to her. If I were her, I would have scolded you too.”
“Hey, do any of you even know what you’re talking about? I’m just looking out for her!”
“Stop being so a.s.sumptive and condescending. If you’re really just looking out for her, just turn into a pig for real,” George said and quickly ran away before he lost his temper.
In the car…
Su Qianxun looked at Long Sijue. His brows were furrowed the entire time. She reached out to hold his hand and said, “Don’t let what Rong Yebai said get to you.”
“Does it bother you?” Long Sijue’s gaze met her rather vulnerable eyes.
Su Qianxun gawked at him. ‘Is it important if it bothers me or not?” They were merely in a mutually beneficial relations.h.i.+p. She had no right to get upset
“Nevermind…”
After Long Sijue said that, he pulled her onto his lap and sat her down. It was too soon to ask her that question. He still needed time to deal with a lot of things.
Su Qianxun did not know what he meant by “Nevermind”. Curious and confused, she took a glance at him and sat still in his arms.
She thought of what had happened to the Lan family and wondered about the aftermath. She immediately took out her phone to check the news.
Right then, the Lan family was having a press conference. The venue was crowded with reporters.
The Lan family was a prominent clan in Dragon City. Even though Lan Qingcheng was not a celebrity, she was still the most famous socialite in Dragon City. Her reputation preceded her. That was why Lan Yingying’s scandal turned into such a big deal.
Due to the incident at Qiao Yiren’s wedding, Lan Yingying’s life was ruined. She thought that it was good to travel overseas for the time being. After all, human beings were forgetful creatures. After five or seven years, no one would remember what had happened to her. She could come back to the country by then.
However, for the sake of their reputation, the Lan family were now pus.h.i.+ng her before the media and blinding camera lights without mercy. They were exposing her wound to the world. It was the cruelest thing a person could do.
Lan Yingying knew very well that everything the Lan family was doing was for Lan Qingcheng. That woman had outweighed and outshone her ever since they were young!
Lan Yingying stared at the flickering camera lights in a daze. Everything before her eyes suddenly turned blank, including her mind. She spotted her elder cousin sister, who was still as beautiful as ever. In contrast, she was pale as a ghost. She suddenly pulled out a dagger and tried to stab Lan Qingcheng…
