He remained her best friend, someone she could confide in and be loyal to, so she saw through everything but kept quiet. But tonight, Su Muyu brought it up, and she spoke up anyway.
However, Su Muyu was afraid of hearing her say such things.
She's the most carefree person ever.
Look! This is it now.
"Does the word 'close' sound a bit too distant?" Su Muyu laughed, a soft laugh, but his expression remained gloomy: "Qi Luo, there's no need for us to be so distant."
The word "estrangement" sounded extremely uncomfortable to Su Muyu, and Ning Qiluo also felt very uncomfortable hearing it.
Just as she was about to say something, a voice came—
"From what standpoint are you making demands of her?"
Upon hearing the sound, Ning Qiluo suddenly turned around to look.
If there were no starlight, he would emerge from the moonlight, towering seven feet tall, his brows and eyes exuding a cool indifference. After a few steps, he stood beside her, and with just a gesture, she was drawn into his domain, not to be touched by anyone else.
Ning Qiluo didn't expect him to come at this exact moment.
Two imposing men faced each other, the air thick with tension. Ning Qiluo, standing beside Jiang Yingchi, gently tugged at his sleeve and said in a soft voice, "Let's go home."
After speaking to him, she said to Su Muyu, "Muyu, let's talk about this another day."
"Qi Luo".
Su Muyu tried to stop her, but was blocked by Jiang Yingchi's outstretched arm. In that instant, Su Muyu's face was suddenly filled with gloom, and he glared coldly at Jiang Yingchi.
Jiang Yingchi simply ignored it.
He then said to Ning Qiluo, "Go wait for me in the car."
Ning Qiluo glanced at Jiang Yingchi's serious expression, then looked at Su Muyu, and nodded obediently: "Okay."
She took two steps, turned her head back, and then walked straight towards the parking lot.
Now that Ning Qiluo has left, only the two of them remain in a standoff.
Su Muyu withdrew his gaze from Ning Qiluo's disappearing figure, his eyes filled with a sinister and malevolent aura: "Jiang Yingchi, you shouldn't have shown up."
"Whether it's right or wrong isn't up to you to decide," Jiang Yingchi said expressionlessly.
"Oh-"
Su Muyu let out a light sneer, his eyes filled with undisguised hostility and contempt: "Then what is your stance, Ma? You newcomer, don't forget that I am the one who grew up with Qi Luo since childhood, and I have been with her for so long."
"So what?"
Jiang Yingchi, with a condescending attitude, said: "A'Luo is not an object; there is no such thing as first come, first served. You should understand this principle."
"Then we'll just have to wait and see." Su Muyu's previous gloomy demeanor vanished, replaced by a faint, enigmatic smile.
To Jiang Yingchi, these words were not even a threat, let alone annoyance.
After all, they are not the same kind of people.
As Jiang Yingchi turned to leave, Su Muyu's mocking voice came from behind her: "If Qi Luo knew about your colorful past, do you think things would still be the same between you two?"
Suddenly, Jiang Yingchi stopped in his tracks.
He slowly turned around, glancing sideways at Su Muyu, who was giving him a provocative smile. Suddenly, he smiled too: "Why don't you try and see if you can get in my way?"
Su Muyu's smile grew even more unrestrained, and he shook his head as if sighing: "Jiang Yingchi, Jiang Yingchi, no matter how many methods you use, you have overlooked one thing. Qi Luo is clear about love and hate, and she cannot tolerate any imperfections. You cannot win her over."
Jiang Yingchi's face hardened with coldness.
