Hearing his words, Xu Jiaojiao could not help but raise her head. âAre pigs flying?â
The corners of Lu Zhuoâs mouth twitched, but he still said slowly, âIâm sorry. I shouldnât have abandoned you on our wedding day, and 1 shouldnât have ignored your feelings for me.â
Was he really apologizing to her? And so sincerely, too.
âYou donât have to apologize for the wedding or for ignoring my feelings. That was my mistake.â Xu Jiaojiao saw that he was sincere, so she did not hold a grudge against him anymore.
âYour mistake?â Lu Zhuo did not know what she was talking about.
âOh, itâs nothing. You donât have to take it to heart. Since weâre done now, Iâll go back to class.â Xu Jiaojiao was about to leave when Lu Zhuo stopped her. âWait a minute.â
âWhat is it this time?â Xu Jiaojiao was puzzled.
âUmâ¦â Lu Zhuo stuttered, not knowing how to start.
âIf you have something to say, just say it,â Xu Jiaojiao said nonchalantly.
âDo you really not have any feelings for me at all?â Lu Zhuo looked at her with a burning gaze.
Xu Jiaojiao pouted. âNope, none at all.â
Lu Zhuo fell into a pit of endless despairâ¦
âStay away from Qi Shenbai. Heâs very dangerous.â Lu Zhuo enunciated each word clearly.
âDangerous? How so?â Xu Jiaojiao was even more confused.
âQi Shenbai is a very cunning man. If he wants to trick you, thereâs no way out for you. Heâs ruthless! Also, thereâs more to the Qi family than meets the eye. The succession war back then was brutal! Qi Shenbai is living the high life now, but even he canât guarantee how long he will live.â
Lu Zhuo spoke very seriously, as if he was sincerely reminding Xu Jiaojiao.
Xu Jiaojiao also recalled her dreams. In one of the dream, Qi Shenbai was hit by a car on a rainy nightâ¦
Xu Jiaojiao shook her head. âItâs too late. Iâve already fallen hopelessly in love with him. Even if we die, we will die together.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lu Zhuoru was thunderstruck. He did not expect Xu Jiaojiaoâs feelings for Qi Shenbai to be so strong. She had never loved him that much. If she had, they would not be separated now.
Lu Zhuo felt as if his heart was being torn apart. Blood kept gushing out, making it difficult for him to breathe.
Xu Jiaojiao had learned this trick from Qi Shenbai. That was what he had told Lu Huan that night. Judging by Lu Zhuoâs ugly expression, it seemed to be quite effective.
âThank you for your kind reminder, but I really canât leave him. Also, donât come looking for me in the future. Iâm afraid heâll misunderstand.â Xu Jiaojiao lowered her eyes.
She was afraid that he would misunderstand⦠Lu Zhuoâs heart was torn apart again.
âIf thereâs nothing else, 1â11 go to class now. Goodbye,â Xu Jiaojiao said as she quickly left.
Looking at her back, Lu Zhuo clenched his fists.
Later on, Xu Jiaojiao almost ran to the entrance of the teaching building. When she realized that she could no longer see Lu Zhuo, she finally heaved a sigh of relief. âHeâs nuts.â
Then, she quickly walked into the teaching building.
âJiaojiao.â Suddenly, someone called out to her. When she turned around, she saw it was Qi Yunduo.
âYunduo, you have class in the afternoon too?â Xu Jiaojiao smiled.
âYeah! But who was the person who was with you just now? Did he confess to you?â Qi Yunduo was a little nervous.
âNo,â Xu Jiaojiao denied.
âThen who is he? Why did he talk to you for so long?â When Qi Yunduo saw another man with Xu Jiaojiao, she felt nervous, afraid that her brother would lose his wife.
âHeâs⦠Sigh!â Xu Jiaojiao did not know how to explain.
âHeâs her ex.â At this moment, Su Luo walked over with a book in her arms.
âYour ex? Why is he looking for you? Is he trying to get back together with you? Please donât! I saw him just now. Heâs not as tall or handsome as my brother, and he definitely isnât as rich as my brother. Forget about him! Also, youâre already married to my brother. If you cheat on him, you wonât get a single cent.â
Qi Yunduo rambled on. At the end of the day, she just did not want her brother to lose out.
âHahahaâ¦â Su Luo burst out laughing. She knew that things were impossible between Xu Jiaojiao and Lu Zhuo, but she did not expect Qi Yunduo to be so worried.
âWhat are you laughing at? This is a serious matter.â Qi Yunduo quickly stopped her.
Xu Jiaojiao was speechless.ââ¦â
She felt helpless. Did she really look so unreliable? Did she look like someone who would get back with her scummy ex? Besides, they were barely even dating to begin with.
âDonât worry! Jiaojiao doesnât like him anymore, and she definitely wonât divorce your big brother because of him.â Su Luo chuckled and explained on Xu Jiaojiaoâs behalf.
âThen why did he talk to you?â Qi Yunduo still wanted to know more.
âHe must have pleaded his stupid sisterâs case.â Su Luo rolled her eyes..
