After more than 10 minutes of coaxing, Xuxu finally managed to persuade her grandfather and made him happy .
She was standing along the staircase and felt herself shivering after she hung up the call . She swiftly turned around, opened the door of the staircase, and walked into the corridor .
The corridor was warmer than the staircase . But she hesitated when she heard laughter coming from the hall .
After that, she looked down and proceeded to unzip her bag to put away her phone . After that, she searched her bag for the room card . She took a quick glance at the room number before heading to the respective room .
Suddenly, her phone rang from inside her bag . She took it out and saw that the caller was Yan Rusheng .
Her eyes revealed an innocent smile . She answered the call . "What do you want?"
"Where are you? It's starting soon . "

Yan Rusheng sounded furious over the phone that it made Xuxu move her phone slightly away from her ears . She knitted her eyebrows in bewilderment and asked, "What is starting?"
She walked as she talked .
"Oh, Young Master Lu . I really don't know how to play mahjong . Please count me out . "
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded from where she was . Xuxu raised her head, looked over, and her expression froze .
Even though Yan Rusheng's voice was exploding with fury over the phone, she didn't really pay attention to the rest of the conversation .
She was dumbstruck for a moment and her face turned sullen . After that, she hung up without a word .
She raised her feet and stomped furiously towards a pair of people engaged in a tussle outside Room 204 .
"I'm not going . Have some chocolates," spoke Fang Jiayin as she unwrapped the pink heart-shaped box in her hands .

Suddenly, someone's hand reached out and snatched the box over from her .
As the action was too violent, the hard corner of the box scratched her face .
"Ah!" Fang Jiayin let out a yell . She pressed her hand lightly on the scratch .
"Xuxu . " Lu Yinan turned around and looked at the woman in question . He was apparently shocked .
Xuxu looked gloomy and terrifying .
He'd never seen Xuxu behaving in this manner .
"Xuxu . I…" Fang Jiayin looked at Xuxu as she continued to press her hand on the wound . There was an inexplicable grievance on her face .
Without giving her a chance to explain, Xuxu snorted coldly, "Get lost!"
Her voice trembled uncontrollably as she said that .
After that, she turned and walked away . She walked past a trash can and threw the heart-shaped box into it .
"Xuxu . " Lu Yinan was baffled by her reaction but gave chase because he knew that she was fuming .
Lu Yishan happened to walk out of the card room and saw him . She called out to him from afar . "Brother, what took you so long?"
Jiang Zhuoheng and Ming Ansheng also followed suit and came out of the card room .
Everyone was astonished when they saw Fang Jiayin holding on to her face with reddened eyes .
Ming Ansheng rushed forward and asked Fang Jiayin, "Miss Fang Jiayin, what happened?"
Feeling aggrieved, Fang Jiayin tried to explain, "I… I…"
She stammered and almost choked on her words .
Lu Yinan saw the situation and explained on her behalf, "Don't know what came over Xuxu . Fang Jiayin was holding a box of chocolates in her hand and all of a sudden, Xuxu marched over furiously and snatched away the box of chocolates and threw it into the trash can . "
"Chocolates?" Lu Yishan heard Lu Yinan and exclaimed, "Was it the box of chocolates that third sister-in-law had specially handmade for Third Brother Yan?"
Hearing this, everyone was astonished .
Suddenly, a towering figure appeared out of nowhere .
"Yishan, what did you say?" Yan Rusheng grabbed Lu Yishan's shoulder and stared at her with his malicious-looking eyes . He was also in a state of shock .
