Qiao Qing remembered how Sang Wu told Jun Yexuan he was supposed to have an unfortunate life, and couldn’t help but hug him back tightly. With her head rested on his shoulder, she nodded.
“I will.”
Jun Yexuan’s heart physically shook as he felt dampness near his eyes, “Qingqing, you’re so… How can I not love you?”
How can I not love you?
He thought his words just now would be greeted with nothingness, if not mockery from her.
Who knew that his girl would always manage to strike the softest part of his heart.
What did he accomplish in his previous lives to deserve such a loving girl?
“That girl’s right. You’re the fortune that I’m receiving after doing good deeds in my past eight lives.” Jun Yexuan kissed the top of her head.
He closed his eyes and with much affection, he announced, “Qingqing, I love you.”
That night, Luo Chen kept on peeking at his older brother.
At dinner, Tao Yi patted his head, “Luo Chen, what’s wrong? Why do you keep on looking at your brother?”
Luo Chen played with his food, “Nothing.”
Luo Xingqian narrowed his eyes at Luo Chen and didn’t speak.
After dinner, Luo Chen snuck back to his room. He was about to shut the door when Luo Xingqian blocked the door.
“Huh… brother?” Luo Chen scratched his head, “Do you need something?”
Luo Xingqian went inside and shut the door. Then, he leaned back against the door, “I should be the one asking you. What’s up? Do you have something to say to me? Or something to ask?”
Luo Chen cleared his throat and said, “Today, a fortune-teller told me some strange things. She said I’m the emperor’s son who’s going to take over one day.”
Luo Xingqian nodded, “What else?”
“And…” Luo Chen’s face was puffy and red as he stuttered, “And… she said I won’t have children… But Qingqing checked my pulse and said I’m healthy in that aspect!”
His words didn’t generate any reaction from Luo Xingqian.
Confused, he looked up and was shocked to find Luo Xingqian staring back, “Brother, why are you looking at me like that?”
Luo Xingqian walked towards him, “Did she really say that?”
“Y… yes.” Luo Xingqing walked closer with no sign of stopping, which forced Luo Chen to retreat, “Brother, what… what are you doing?”
Luo Xingqian didn’t speak. Every step he advanced, Luo Chen retreated.
When Luo Chen had nowhere else to go and hit a wall, Luo Xingqian stuck out an arm and pushed it against the wall. He then lowered his head.
Luo Chen pushed Luo Xingqian away by the chest as his own heart thumped violently.
“Brother… What… what are you doing?! Don’t scare me!”
Luo Xingqian lifted Luo Chen’s chin with his fingers, “What do you think I’m doing, hmm?”
Luo Chen was close to crying at this point, “Brother, this joke isn’t funny! I just remembered that I need to find mom for something.”
Luo Chen bent down and escaped Luo Xingqian’s hovering body. As if he was running away, he dashed out of his own room.
Luo Xingqian watched him go and bitterly chuckled.
What should he do now? He scared him away.
For a very long time after the incident, Luo Chen avoided Luo Xingqian.
After being warned by Sang Wu, Qiao Qing didn’t stop her medical research despite the many questions she had.
During this period of time, due to the World Class IQ Club’s party, the other influential founding members also snuck over from their respective countries.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the party.
