Chapter 394: Are We Catching The Culprit Today?
“Alright, though I’ll guarantee that you’ll meet a tragic end if you lie to me this time.” The man warned icily before he ended the call.
Lan Xin sneered. “That depends on whether you can do it.” Lan Xin switched the phone off as she muttered to herself. She then threw the phone into a man-made lake.
Lan Xin turned around and was just about to leave when she noticed two people out of the corner of her eye. Qiao Yaruan and Mo Lusu?
Lan Xin was curious. She saw them heading toward her and quickly hid behind a tree.
Qiao Yaruan placed her hands behind her as she walked beside Mo Lusu.
Mo Lusu looked up and stared into the distance as he calmly asked, “So, Luoluo is now with Chu Ningyi?”
Qiao Yaruan nodded and spoke with a sense of bitterness, “Actually, you know that I have feelings for you, right, Senior Brother?”
“Junior Sister…”
“I know what you’re going to say. That day when Feng Feng dragged be away, you had actually heaved a sigh of relief in secret. You had not objected when I followed you around because it was actually for Luoluo’s sake.” Qiao Yaruan chuckled. If she still could not see through Mo Lusu after experiencing all of this, she would really be stupid.
That night, when she had fought with Feng Feng, he had watched them with an icy glare. Even though the rain was falling heavily that night, she had seen it very clearly.
Therefore, from that day onward, she had told herself that it was time to give up.
“Junior Sister, the situation now is pretty good.” Mo Lusu continued to speak without any sense of emotion.
Qiao Yaruan nodded. “Yes, it’s pretty good. My work here is done. Luoluo asked me to tell you not to worry about her, she’s afraid of you wallowing in remorse,” Qiao Yaruan said before she turned around, confining all her loneliness in her eyes.
Mo Lusu watched Qiao Yaruan as she left. He frowned a little again. Had he lost to Chu Ningyi again this time?
Mo Lusu clenched his fists. Why would he always lose to Chu Ningyi? There was nothing about him that was inferior and he was far kinder to Shui Anluo but her eyes never beheld him.
She had even tired to matchmake him with Qiao Yaruan. This was the most heartbreaking part of it all to Mo Lusu. This was also the most important reason why he had eyed Feng Feng’s appearance so icily that day.
Lan Xin only reemerged from behind the tree when Mo Lusu left. Shui Anluo was worried that Mo Lusu would blame himself so she specifically asked Qiao Yaruan to inform Mo Lusu. Lan Xin sneered, she really worries about a lot of things.
‘She’s extremely lucky that I had failed to kill her this time but no one can predict what’ll happen next time,’ Lan Xin thought hatefully. Finally, she turned around and left.
The little darling’s soft breaths gently wafted around the silent living room.
Shui Anluo placed the sleeping little darling in his small cot and tucked him in. She then turned around to look at Chu Ningyi, “When can you give that new phone to me?”
Chu Ningyi, who was on his laptop, glanced at her before he continued to look at the screen. “You’re coming with me to the disaster benefit dinner tomorrow night.”
“Another dinner party?” Shui Anluo frowned, she does not have a good feeling about dinner parties.
Chu Ningyi raised his brow and calmly replied, “To deny the rumors!”
“To deny the rumors?” Shui Anluo blinked. She was dazed for a long while before she reacted. Was the purpose of this to tell the gossipy fans of ‘A’ City that the Crown Prince’s ex-wife was still alive and that the Crown Prince had never schemed against his ex-wife?
Shui Anluo returned to the sofa and sat down before she stretched out her hand to take the tablet from the table. “Are we catching the culprit today?”
