Chapter 408 Don't Blame Me

"Are you adjusting well to life in China?" Fu Xingzhou asked Li Susu gently.

Li Susu raised an eyebrow, a hint of impatience in her eyes. "Fu Xingzhou, if you have nothing to say, you can choose to shut up."

Fu Xingzhou chuckled softly, the moonlight shining on his face making him appear even more handsome. "Have you always been this cold to people?"

"Hmm." Li Susu spoke sparingly, her tone indifferent.

Fu Xingzhou looked at her, his gaze deep, "What about Chen Ke?"

Upon hearing the name, Li Susu's eyes flickered slightly, but she quickly concealed it.

She stood up abruptly, not wanting to get entangled with Fu Xingzhou on these meaningless topics any longer.

"I'll go ask the staff for candles." Li Susu said curtly, then turned and left.

Fu Xingzhou didn't stop her, but as she turned around, he muttered to himself, "Still as timid as ever. I shouldn't have let someone cut off the power to scare you."

He watched Li Susu's retreating figure, a hint of self-reproach and helplessness flashing in his eyes. "If I don't do this, I won't have a chance to talk to you alone."

Fu Xingzhou chuckled self-deprecatingly, "I've really become despicable."

He raised his head, gazing at the bright moon in the sky, his eyes filled with anticipation, "I hope that after you remember everything, you won't blame me."

Li Susu groped her way toward the staff duty room of the resort.

Chen Ke was still thinking about what Fu Xingzhou had just said...

She quickened her pace, a vague unease creeping into her heart.

Before she even reached the duty room, the lights in the resort suddenly came on.

Li Susu paused, startled, and stopped in her tracks.

It turns out the power has been restored.

She breathed a sigh of relief; the fear she felt in the darkness hadn't completely dissipated.

She walked to the door of the duty room and knocked gently.

"Hello, could you tell me what caused the power outage just now?"

The door opened, and a young man in work clothes poked his head out.

"Sorry, there was a problem with the circuit just now, but it's back to normal now."

Li Susu's heart was pounding.

"Is the power supply to the resort always unstable?"

The staff member scratched his head. "I'm not too sure about that either. I'm new here too."

He noticed Li Susu's unease and quickly added, "But don't worry, we will find out the cause as soon as possible and ensure that a similar situation will not happen again."

As he spoke, he took a candle from inside the house and handed it to Li Susu.

"Just in case, please take this."

Li Susu accepted the candle and thanked her.

Although the power had been restored, she was still a little uneasy.

Back in her room, Li Susu placed the candle on the bedside table.

She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

The next morning, a knock on the door startled Li Susu awake.

"Arno, wake up!" Yu Xin's clear voice came from outside the door.

Li Susu rubbed her eyes, walked to the door, and opened it.

"So early?"

Yu Xin smiled mysteriously, "Today I'm going to take you to a great place!"

"What good place?" Li Susu asked curiously.

Yu Xin blinked. "It's a secret! Anyway, you definitely won't be disappointed!"

She grabbed Li Susu's hand and said, "Go wash up quickly, we're leaving right away!"

As Li Susu was being pulled forward, she suddenly remembered something.

"Wait, let me tell Chen Ke first, otherwise he'll worry."

Yu Xin stopped and looked at Li Susu with a mocking expression.
