The chauffeur advised Su Jiu, “Little Miss, don’t get angry over such a boy. He’s not worth it. Let’s go back. If Young Master finds out that you’re here, I’ll be in trouble.”
$u Jiu nodded and followed him to the car. Just as she was about to get into the car, she turned back to look at the bar.
The girl still held a sliver of hope that the little villain would step through the doorway. Then, she would forget all her anger toward him.
$u Jiu took out her phone. “Rong Si, I’ll give you one minute. If you don’t come out, I’ll leave for real!”
In the bar, the flickering lights shone on Rong Si’s face. His expression was unreadable.
As he recalled Su Jiu’s words just now, his heart was stifled.
‘When he saw her message, he stopped hesitating.
With only one minute left, he pushed away the people around him and rushed out of the bar.
Just as Su Jiu was about to get into the car, she saw the little villain running out. His face was filled with anxiety and even a trace of panic. Su Jiu raised her eyebrows and the corner of her lips curled up a little.
‘When he walked up to her, she puffed up her cheeks and said, “Big Brother, have you finally thought it through? Tell me, do you still want to hide from me? I’m not joking. If you hadn’t come out, I’d have really ignored you!”
Su Jiu felt that she really looked like the kind of girl who would fight with her boyfriend.
Wait, boyfriend?
I’m letting my imagination run wild again.
Rong Si was suddenly glad that he had followed her out. Otherwise, if she had really ignored him, what would he do?
Even if she was just joking, he still took it seriously.
Rong Si guiltily looked down. “I’m sorry!”
His voice was low. When he said this, he didn’t even dare to look into Su Jiu’s eyes.
Although Su Jiu had been a little angry just now, all her anger disappeared with his apology. She magnanimously said, “Seeing that we’ve known each other since we were young, I’ll forgive you. But if you continue to avoid me and make me worry…”
As she spoke, she tiptoed and patted his head, just like she had when they were younger. “Don’t think that I’ll forgive you!”
At this moment, the manager ran out of the bar and saw Rong Si standing in front of Su Jiu. The girl was even reaching out to touch his head, but he seemed to be giving in to her. Suddenly, the manager remembered that many female customers had complained that this boy had a bad att.i.tude and that
they could not even speak to him.
But he seems to be very patient and indulgent toward this girl?
The manager angrily said, “Rong Si! What are you doing? You offended Miss Tang and ran away without a word. Do you not want to work here anymore?”
‘When Su Jiu heard this, she immediately pushed Rong Si behind her. She raised her chin and said to the manager, “Yes! He quit! Why should I let you bully someone I care so much about?”
Rong Si looked at her in shock and pursed his thin lips.
Did she just say that I was someone she cares about?
“Big Brother, let’s go. I won’t stand it anymore!” Su Jiu held Rong Si’s hand and left. As for what the manager was saying behind them, she did not want to care at all.
Rong Si followed her in a daze and looked down at her hand.
He had grown up and so had she, but her hand was still so small. His hand was much bigger than hers, and he could cover her hand completely.
Other than his mother, Su Jiu was the only female he had ever held hands with. Rong Si’s ears turned red.
His heart was thumping.
