Chapter 159

Chapter159, After finishing the fruit platter, I felt the urge to use the restroom. I stood up and discreetly went to the bathroom inside the private room.

Evan noticed me getting up. He watched me quietly head to the restroom, amused.“Your eyes are practically glued to him,” Luo Xiuyan said, unable to contain himself as I stared at the restroom.

Evan looked away.

Luo Xiuyan asked him, “You really like her?”

Evan:“Mm.” He added, “I tried. She doesn’t like me.”

Luo Xiuyan’s expression shifted from shock to disbelief. He stifled a laugh.“So.... you confessed? And were rejected? Ms. Frost has terrible taste. You’re far better than Julian. Don’t be sad, I’ll pay for her eye surgery. Once she can see, she’ll realize how great you‘ are, Pure and Innocent Little Jones.”

“This actually happened to you? I have to remember this amazing day. June 10th, Evan was rejected! Tell me the details! How brutal was it? You didn’t cry, did you?”

“If you need to cry now, bro, my shoulder is available.”

... He teased relentlessly, seizing this golden opportunity.

Evan glared coldly. “You want me to cut out your tongue?”

When I came out of the restroom, they had moved from the table to the sofa. Having been shoved away by Evan earlier, I politely greeted Luo Xiuyan.“Mr. Luo, it’s nice to meet you.”

“Ms. Frost, nice to meet you too.” Luo Xiuyan responded with a bright smile, patting the space beside him.“Sit with your big brother.”

Evan watched him, a cold glint in his eyes, as if trying to freeze him into an ice sculpture.

I smiled and politely declined.“I’m fine standing.”

“Standing is tiring. Sit down,” Luo Xiuyan beckoned again.

“...Okay.” I had no choice but to agree. Of course, I didn’t sit next to him but chose a seat near Evan.

Luo Xiuyan crossed his legs, leaning back in his chair, relaxed and casual. He smiled at me, seeming genuinely interested.“I don’t know why, but Ms. Frost, you feel familiar. Let me be your older brother.”

Me:“...” How about you be my grandma instead.

I mentally scoffed, but realizing that building rapport with him could only benefit me, and considering I was the CEO’s friend, refusing would be rude.

“Mr. Luo, you’re too kind,” I replied politely.

“Stop calling me Mr. Luo, call me brother.” Before Evan could object, I heard myself say, “...Brother.” I gritted my smiling like I was about to bite someone.
