She was only away from home for two days, but it felt like a long time to Su Jianan .

Entering the living room and seeing those familiar faces one by one, a smile finally registered on her face .

Luo Xiaoxi rushed over and hugged Su Jianan . “I was almost scared to death, and Su Yicheng wouldn't let me see you . ”

“You would only have been stopped by the police, so you might as well be with my brother at home . ” Su Jianan patted Luo Xiaoxi's shoulder . “I'm fine now! And you can see me anytime!”

As she finished, she heard a rustle and felt drops of water from above her head .

Su Jianan wiped her face and looked at Tang Yulan in doubt, who was sprinkling water on her with leaves .

“This will help you get rid of bad luck!” Tang Yulan handed a towel to Su Jianan . “Dry your face . In the future, all the unlucky things will stay away from you!”

There was no such custom in City A, so Tang Yulan must have heard it from someone . However, she usually wouldn't believe in such things . This time, she might be really scared, thus she used this kind of folk method, which was only comforting to the people who practiced it .

Su Jianan wiped the water drops on her face smilingly .

Anyway, at this moment, she really believed that back luck would no longer fall on her head .

“All right . As long as you've come back, let's eat . ” Aunt Liu reminded everyone .

After the meal, Su Jianan wanted Tang Yulan to stay the night here, but Tang Yulan insisted that the chauffeur send her back to Orchid Gardens .

“I'm old . I can't fall asleep in a new place . ” Tang Yulan rolled down the windows and waved at Lu Boyan and Su Jianan . “I should go back, and you should rest early too . ”

Su Yicheng and Shen Yuechuan left subsequently as well . The servants cleaned the dining room and went back to their rooms . Only Su Jianan and Lu Boyan stayed in the s . p . a . cious house .

Su Jianan threw herself onto the soft king-size bed and dragged a pillow to bury half of her face into it . She was now completely relaxed and then felt the mattress beside her slightly sink . She didn't need to guess to know who it was .

She lazily lifted her eyelids and looked at Lu Boyan . “Won't you take a shower? “I've prepared your clothes . ”

“Do you remember you asked me how I knew that Chen Xuanxuan was involved?” Lu Boyan said, “Kang Ruicheng dropped the lead . ”

“He—” Su Jianan was a little dazed . “Why did he save me?”

Lu Boyan looked at Su Jianan for a while and said, “Be careful with him in the future . And don't run about by yourself . ” Once was enough for her to be seen as a murderer .

Su Jianan nodded, threw away the pillow, and got off the bed . “If you're not going to, then I'll go take a shower . ”

She carried her clothes into the bathroom and casually pushed the door closed . However, she didn't hear a click when the frame and the door met after a long while .


She twisted around in doubt and saw Lu Boyan's hand holding the frame .

“You…” Su Jianan widened her eyes and said only this one word . By then, Lu Boyan had already gotten in . “Together . ”

“Why?” Su Jianan put both arms in front of her chest for protection .

Lu Boyan dragged her into his arms and she couldn't tell if he was smiling or not . “To save water and time . ”

However, the fact was taking a shower together did not save time at all…

At the same time, Luo Xiaoxi and Su Yicheng were on their way home .

Lao Luo knew Su Jianan was fine, so he called Luo Xiaoxi a long time ago to ask Luo Xiaoxi to come home early .

Nevertheless, Su Yicheng's car was driving toward his apartment .

Luo Xiaoxi let out a heavy “ahem” and hesitated for a while before saying, “I'll go home after I collect my things at your place . ”

After that, she secretly glanced at Su Yicheng and felt upset . His face did not change at all and he just blankly nodded .

Had he grown tired of her?

Luo Xiaoxi soon dropped the idea, which only belonged to those bored women .

Well, that was fine . If Su Yicheng wouldn't let her go, she would have to deal with a problem from both sides .

After collecting her things at the apartment, Luo Xiaoxi clutched the car keys and waved at Su Yicheng . “I'm leaving . ”

Just when she walked out of the room, someone pulled her back by the wrist .

He pressed her against the wall .

Luo Xiaoxi couldn't breathe at the moment and widened her eyes in front of Su Yicheng, whose eyes grew dark . Her lips moved but Su Yicheng chimed in . “Do you really want to leave?”

He stared at her like a crouching lion waiting in the dark .

“My dad wants me home!” Luo Xiaoxi used Lao Luo to threaten him . Only in this way could she sound confident .

“I'll see your parents the day after tomorrow . ”

Lao Luo had been refusing to meet with Su Yicheng, and things couldn't continue like this . Su Yicheng initially planned to visit the Luo family recently, but no one had expected something big would happen to Su Jianan, so he had to put off his plan .

It was all of a sudden to Luo Xiaoxi, and she didn't react at all when Su Yicheng had kissed her on the lips .

Recently, because of Su Jianan, Su Yicheng hadn't been in the mood . At the moment, he kissed her so hard and so tenderly that her walls broke down inch by inch . She had utterly forgotten Lao Luo's order .

The next day when Luo Xiaoxi came home and saw Lao Luo sitting sullenly on the sofa, she knew she was doomed . She dryly smiled and walked over to pour tea into the cup in front of Lao Luo . “Lao Luo, don't worry anymore . Jianan's fine and went home yesterday!”

Lao Luo sneered . “Jianan went home yesterday, then where were you yesterday?”

Luo Xiaoxi looked guilty and became speechless .

“Bang!”

Lao Luo thumped on the tea table and knocked down the entire tea set . A few drops of tea splashed onto Luo Xiaoxi's instep, but she seemed to not feel the pain and just looked at the furious Lao Luo, dazed .

“Am I wrong for having spoiled you?” The veins on Lao Luo's temples stuck out . “Luo Xiaoxi, do you know how degrading you are in Su Yicheng's eyes? You didn't even come back after I called you . You don't listen to me anymore, do you?”

Luo Xiaoxi was trying to tell Lao Luo that Su Yicheng would visit him soon . However, now she was so scared by Lao Luo that she couldn't say a word .

“Go get the marriage certificate with Qin Wei!” Lao Luo ordered in a non–negotiable way . “Or you can get out of this house and I won't be your father . You won't call me dad forever!”

Hearing him, Mrs . Luo hurried downstairs and stopped her husband . “Xiaoxi is wrong, but do you have to be so upset?”

“I don't have such a shameless daughter! Don't defend her!” In the heat of pa . s . sion, Lao Luo tossed away his wife's hand, and Mrs . Luo awkwardly fell onto the sofa . “Or you can leave with her too!”

In Luo Xiaoxi's memory, this was the harshest words Lao Luo had ever said to her and her mother .

She hurried to pick her mother up from the sofa . “Mom, are you OK?”

“I'm fine . ” Mrs . Luo waved her hand and kept tugging the hem of Luo Xiaoxi's s . h . i . +rt to signal her . “Go apologize to your dad . ”

“I didn't do anything wrong!” Luo Xiaoxi stubbornly looked at Lao Luo . “Why am I wrong for being with the one I love? Why am I shameless because of that? Dad's being stubborn! All he talks about is Qin Wei this, Qin Wei that . I won't come back if that's what dad wants!”

Luo Xiaoxi kicked away the sc . r . a . pes of the teapot on the floor and left the house without so much as a backward glance . Seeing this, the bodyguards came over to stop her, but her look was crueler than ever . “Don't follow me!”

Those tall and robust men became timid due to Luo Xiaoxi just like that, and just watched her leave in her car . When she rushed out from the house, Mrs . Luo couldn't even see the taillights .

Luo Xiaoxi didn't have any appointments in the morning and didn't know where to go . In the end, she drove to the building of Cheng An Group .

She used to come here often . However, since she once leaked Su Yicheng's proposal, she had not come back again .

She still felt nervous about showing up here, so she asked Xiao Chen to fetch her from the underground garage, and take her directly to the president's office .

“Ms . Luo, Boss Su will finish the meeting in 30 minutes . Please drink something while you wait . ” Xiao Chen put a gla . s . s of juice in front of Luo Xiaoxi, closed the door, and left .

Luo Xiaoxi felt bored, so she ran about in the office, but still couldn't figure out what the painting on the wall was about even after thinking for a while . She didn't know how long it had been before she heard Su Yicheng's footsteps . He walked in and looked her up and down . “Didn't you say you were going home? Why are you here?”

Luo Xiaoxi bit her lip and told Su Yicheng about the big fight between her and Lao Luo .

Su Yicheng held her hand, and she hurriedly asked, “Where to?”

“Your home . ”

“No way!” Luo Xiaoxi stopped Su Yicheng . “I know my dad . If we see him now, we can't even get in the house . We should wait until he calms down . ”

Moreover, if Su Yicheng had arranged to see Lao Luo tomorrow, he must have had important work to do today . She didn't want to interrupt his plan .

“And don't go tomorrow . ” Luo Xiaoxi added, “He won't calm down until a few days . This time, he's really mad at me…”

“I'll go home with you and we'll apologize to him together,” Su Yicheng said .

“I don't think he'll accept a random verbal apology now . ” Luo Xiaoxi thought about it . “Well, how about this! I'll be having my last knockout round in a few days . Get me two tickets for them . Lao Luo hasn't seen my performance live yet . If he wants to forgive me, he'll show up there . ”

Xiao Chen soon sent two tickets . Luo Xiaoxi merrily put them away, and then wrapped her arms around Su Yicheng's neck . “What's your arrangement in the afternoon?”

Su Yicheng pressed her against the wall and stared at her lips with a pair of urgent eyes . “I'll discuss the purchase of Su Enterprise with Boyan . But I can put it off . ”

When he lowered his head and was about to embrace Luo Xiaoxi's lips, Luo Xiaoxi stopped him .

Luo Xiaoxi asked in doubt, “With Lu Boyan? Why?”

“Jiang Xueli has been giving TV interviews and it has affected Jianan a lot . He suddenly wants Su Enterprise too . ” Su Yicheng pushed away Luo Xiaoxi's hand . “Any other questions?”

“No . ” Luo Xiaoxi smiled . “But I've got work to do in the afternoon . ” Pus . h . i . +ng Su Yicheng away, she straightened the neck of her s . h . i . +rt with a serious face . “So, no!”

Su Yicheng frowned . “What work?”

Luo Xiaoxi thought about Su Yicheng's rules about her work, she didn't dare to tell the truth . She tried to avoid his eyes . “Just some photo shoot!” Afraid of more questions from Su Yicheng, she grabbed his hands and leaned toward him . “Do you have any appointments at noon? Can we have lunch together? I want hot pot . ”

Su Yicheng didn't miss the guilt in Luo Xiaoxi's eyes, but he didn't say it out loud . He asked the secretary to send in two magazines . “Wait for me . I'll take you to a friend's restaurant after finis . h . i . +ng the work at hand . ”

“Which friend?” Luo Xiaoxi didn't remember which friend of Su Yicheng's was in the food business .

“You've met him . ” Su Yicheng said, “Mu Sijue . ”
