Chapter 22: Is There an Adulterer Hiding in Here?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

This was Su Qian’s first time seeing Qin Yunshuang. She indeed looked like a maiden in an ancient painting. She was quiet and elegant, and with a slight movement, the ancient painting seemed to flow. It was a pity that the person standing beside her was Lu Mingxiu, who could be considered the world’s best. Qin Yunshuang was completely overshadowed. Just in terms of appearance, the two of them were not a good match.

Su Qian retracted her gaze and glanced at Sikong Jin, who was still a little frustrated. She said casually, “Do you have somewhere else you want to go later, or do you want to go back to the hotel immediately?”

Without the Star of the Sea, Sikong Jin had lost all interest in going anywhere else.

“Let’s go back to the hotel.”

She naturally had no objections.

When Su Qian walked past him, Lu Mingxiu glanced at her, but she didn’t even spare him a glance.

She could smile when she was with other men, but when she was with him, she would be all kinds of heartless, or she would just ask when they were getting a divorce.

For the first time, he had the desire to destroy everything.

Qin Yunshuang saw that Lu Mingxiu kept staring at Su Qian’s back and felt a strong sense of hostility, “Mingxiu, do you know that young lady?”

Lu Mingxiu came back to his senses, but he didn’t answer her directly. He only looked at her indifferently.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to treat us? Then let’s go. ”

This was the first time Lu Mingxiu had accepted her invitation since she returned to the country. Qin Yunshuang was overjoyed, thinking that Lu Mingxiu was ready to forgive her. She immediately forgot about Su Qian.

They went to Yun Shui, a very famous private restaurant in the capital.

Qin Yunshuang specially ordered a few light dishes. After ordering, she glanced at Lu Mingxiu, who was sitting opposite her. Even if she could be calm in front of everyone, she had to admit that her heart was beating very loudly when she was facing Lu Mingxiu.

“Mingxiu, do you still remember? We used to come to this private restaurant often.”

Lu Mingxiu was a little absent-minded. His mind had long drifted away to Su Qian’s back. He only came back to his senses after Qin Yunshuang had called out to him a few times.

“I’m sorry, I have other things to do, so I won’t be able to accompany you. I didn’t attend your welcome banquet last time, so this meal is on me.”

After he finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Qin Yunshuang also stood up and took a few steps forward to stop Lu Mingxiu.

“Mingxiu… Wait…

“You don’t even want to spend time with me for a meal now?”

Lu Mingxiu was displeased that Qin Yunshuang was using her status to question him.

“You’re the young miss of the Qin family, don’t do things that are out of line. ”

These words ‘out of line’ made Qin Yunshuang suddenly sober up.

When did she learn to be like other women and become infatuated with men?

Her pride did not allow her to do so.

Thus, she could only watch as Lu Mingxiu left the room.

Returning to her seat, she looked at the three people in front of her and asked, “Does Mingxiu have someone he likes?”

Feng Tanjiu and Huo Jingyang did not say a word. Feng Xuanmo, on the other hand, chuckled softly and spoke mysteriously.

“Who knows?”

Lu Mingxiu sat in the car and unbuttoned a few buttons of his shirt. He still felt extremely frustrated.

He didn’t want to do it, but he still did it.

He located Su Qian’s coordinates.

When he saw the words “Di Yuan Hotel” on the coordinates, his expression suddenly changed. He stepped on the accelerator and drove away.

Su Qian had just come out of the bathroom after a shower when she heard a knock on the door. She thought it was Sikong Jin, so she opened the door. She didn’t expect the person standing at the door to be Lu Mingxiu.

She prided herself on knowing Lu Mingxiu very well, but she was a little stunned to see him suddenly appear in this place.

“Why are you here?”

Lu Mingxiu lowered his gaze, as if he wanted to see through her.

“Are you not going to invite me in? Or are you hiding an adulterer in here?”

Su Qian was speechless.

She wasn’t used to his questioning, but she didn’t stop him and let him in. She watched him walk around the room, seemingly nonchalant, but in fact, he didn’t even miss a corner. He really looked like he was looking for something. She laughed and said, “I’ll think you’re jealous if you do that. ”

Lu Mingxiu didn’t admit or deny it. He only replied in a low and hoarse voice, “If you think I’m jealous, then I’m jealous.”

Naturally, Su Qian didn’t take it seriously. She sat on the soft seat beside him and poured herself a glass of water. After drinking it, she casually said, “The prerequisite for being jealous is to like someone. Why, do you want to say that you like me?”

Lu Mingxiu looked around and made sure that there was no one else in the room before he walked toward Su Qian.

He bent over and placed his hands on her sides, as if he was trapping her, not allowing her to escape.

He lowered his head to look at her. Because she had just taken a shower, her body was still steaming. Her porcelain-white skin looked cold even under the soft light. It was clear that she was untainted by dust, but he had the desire to leave a blood-red mark on her for no reason.

“What if I say that I might really like you?”

Upon hearing Lu Mingxiu’s words, the faint smile on Su Qian’s face immediately disappeared without a trace.

“Then I’ll give you a piece of advice. Don’t ever fall in love with me, because I’ll never fall in love with you.”

Lu Mingxiu’s gaze stopped on her face.

“If you don’t like me, then who do you like? Sikong Jin?”

She chuckled. She would not like anyone.

The word ‘like’ had never been suitable for her. Ever since her father and brother passed away, she knew that she would never have the word ‘like’ in her life.

Once you really fell in love with someone, it meant that you had a weakness, and when this weakness betrayed you, you would fall into an abyss and never recover.

That was why she would not fall in love easily. It was precisely because she was not easily moved that she was willing to play this game with him back then.

Now that there was an accident in the game, She had to fix it before it deviated from its original track.

She raised her head and looked at him seriously. “He’s different from you.”

Hearing this, Lu Mingxiu’s expression changed, “What’s different between me and him?”

“Friend or lover, he will never betray me.”

“You trust him that much?”

“Of course!”

Lu Mingxiu had never thought that he would have such a day where anger would take over his rationality.

In Su Qian’s heart, he couldn’t compare to Sikong Jin.

At the thought of this, he lowered his head and covered her lips with his without thinking.

There was still no friendship at all, only punishment. Su Qian gasped as she tasted blood.

She widened her eyes. This was not the first time Lu Mingxiu had kissed her, but it was the first time she had the illusion that she could not control herself.

The taste of blood in each other’s mouths was like poison that burned her heart and bones. She couldn’t avoid it and could only sink into it.

At this moment, Sikong Jin’s voice could be heard from outside the door,

“Qian Qian, are you in your room?”

Hearing Sikong Jin’s voice, Su Qian snapped out of her daze and pushed Lu Mingxiu away. She collected her thoughts and pulled him to the closet.

“Hurry up and hide.”

“I’m not an adulterer,” Lu Mingxiu said unhappily. “Why should I hide in the closet?”
