Chapter 290 A Day in the Life of Mr. Qiao (Part 6)
Luka hugged her tightly, and the long-accumulated anxiety was completely dispelled by her liveliness at this moment.
Qiao Sui Sui pressed on him, resting her chin on his chest, tracing his eyebrows. "Why are you so enthusiastic all of a sudden?"
You know, Luka is the most conservative one.
But he didn't say anything, his eyes glued to her, pressing her down on the bed.
"It wasn't that I wasn't enthusiastic before, but I was afraid you couldn't handle it."
Qiao Susu's ears felt hot and she pretended to look away. This topic was a bit dangerous.
But she still couldn't avoid the man's gentle offensive. This time, she felt a different Luka.
After some tossing and turning, Qiao Susu lay contentedly on the bed, but Luka's eyes were still fixed on her.
Because the status in the game can be set, he has no way of knowing whether she has eaten well recently, but he is reluctant to ask about those details, for fear that she will be impatient, and also afraid that he will get distracted by the clues in her words and make some associations that will make him painful.
Luka knew that she must have suitors in real life, there was no doubt about that, and there were probably quite a few. But he had been trying to avoid knowing this information.
But Labery and he are two extremes.
He would interrogate her about every detail, and when she got annoyed, he would gently and coax her into apologizing. He would then repeatedly make her beg for mercy, over and over again, to ensure she wouldn't change her mind and that she loved him. Of course, he would still chase her around the next day to apologize profusely, but he wouldn't dare to do it again the next time.
Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, Luka didn't want to disturb her, so he gently got up, adjusted her clothes, and asked the royal kitchen to prepare her favorite food. Then he returned to the room and sat in a chair, watching her quietly.
Now the other men don't know she's back, so this is one of the few moments that belong to him alone.
I thought Zongfang would be the first to arrive, but when Luka saw Sang Yan standing at the door, he was a little surprised.
"Will you come in?" he asked.
But Sang Yan shook her head and silently mouthed to him, "Let her sleep."
After saying that, he didn't leave. Luka realized that he had something to talk to him about, so he covered Qiao Susu with a blanket and went out.
Sang Yan told Luka everything he had seen of Qiao Susu that day. The man smoked one cigarette after another. In the smoke, he could not see Luka's expression clearly, but he could feel that he was very unstable at the moment.
After a long while, Luka asked, "Has she been living like this for the past period of time?"
Sang Yan nodded. "It's very likely, otherwise she wouldn't have started having stomachaches. She's much thinner than when she was here, and she doesn't smile as much anymore. She doesn't seem to like talking except when she has to."
Sang Yan recalled the decoration and layout of her home that he had observed, and added, "There's nothing in the refrigerator. Although the house is clean, there are very few things. She must have lived alone for a long time."
"Who will take care of her then?"
Sang Yan shook his head. "It seems that there is no one. And I found a medicine by her bed. I didn't recognize it, so I wrote down the name."
Luka took a look at the words on it, but he didn't recognize them either, so the two of them had to go find Zongfang.
In the laboratory, Zongfang took off his gloves, his voice was flat, as if he was doing something very boring but had to do.
"Based on the name alone, all I can detect are sleeping and anti-anxiety properties. So, who is it for?"
Luka was silent, and for a moment his whole body tensed up.
Sang Yan felt like he was almost out of breath, but he still explained dryly, "This is the medicine Sui Sui is taking. Judging from the amount, she has already taken more than half."
Zong Fang's back stiffened, his silver pupils shrank suddenly, and his indifferent attitude was instantly shattered.
"Who are you talking about?"
Before Luka and Sang Yan could answer, Anubis rushed in in a panic: "Liberty and her are arguing!"
Inside the hall.
Qiao Susu looked at the hysterical man in front of her, her eyes full of confusion.
"I did forget yesterday. It was my fault, but I'm here today."
She sat in the chair, and Liberi knelt before her, his arms resting on the two armrests of the chair, imprisoning her in his embrace.
"I didn't ask you to apologize. What I want to know is where you went yesterday, what you did, who you were with, and why on earth did you forget!"
Qiao Suisui was no longer the little girl she had been. She was deeply disgusted by such questioning, her expression instantly cold, and she sat there in silence. Seeing this, Liberi's heart sank, knowing that she was truly angry. She froze in place, her usual words of comfort gone, and she kept her mouth open for a long time, not daring to utter a single word, as if she had lost all her wits.
At this moment, Zong Fang strode in and saw Qiao Susu sitting there. He then remembered what Sang Yan had seen and heard on the way and no longer cared about anything else.
He walked over and took Qiao Suisui's hand, wanting to take her away, but Liberi hugged her legs, losing his previous dominance. "Don't go yet, let's talk first."
Without a word, Zong Fang raised his hand and used his mental power to repel him. Liberi covered his chest and coughed up blood. His face turned pale instantly, and he kept begging: "Don't leave. Tell me clearly if you are tired of us. Will you come less and less in the future, or even forget about us?"
Luka and the others also came in, speechless at the scene. In fact, Liberi helped them ask the questions they had been suppressing in their hearts.
Seeing the expressions and attitudes of the others, Qiao Suisui seemed to have sensed something, so she asked, "Do you think so too?"
Zongfang held her hand tightly, and the words of denial came to his lips but he couldn't say them.
Luka was trying to figure out how to say it without hurting Sui Sui's feelings, but he heard the person next to him speak first: "Yes. I used to think that once you had a wider world, you would gradually forget me. I can only hope that you would remember me temporarily."
No one expected that Sang Yan, the usually silent and kindhearted man, would be so straightforward.
Qiao Susu was also stunned.
Luka frowned at him, wanting to interrupt him: "Sui Sui, he didn't mean that."
Sang Yan interrupted Luka for the first time: "I did think so before." He slowly walked forward, gently hugged her, and choked up: "But I saw it, I know you didn't take good care of yourself over there. Do you know how much I hated you at that moment? I would rather you have a freer and more wonderful life than see you suffer so much."
Liberi froze suddenly, a trace of confusion appeared on his face, and he frowned and asked, "What are you talking about? What happened to her?"
Luka said in a deep voice: "She is taking anti-anxiety medicine."
Liberi's heart was struck hard, and his face turned even paler.
Qiao Suisui was a little surprised, not knowing how they knew about it. She said, "It's just that I'm too busy at work and tend to suffer from insomnia. When the doctor prescribed this medicine for me, he said it could help me sleep, so it's not that serious."
But no one believed her, thinking she had some serious illness, especially Anubis, who stood in the corner with deep worry in his eyes, as if Qiao Susu was some poor little thing who was hungry and cold, living a life like a weed.
But it's really not that serious.
But the men don't think so.
They thought she suffered a lot out there.
Just when Luka came here, he contacted Carl and updated him on the situation. It is estimated that Carl is already preparing a sack to detain her in the game world.
