As soon as Xu Shaojun reached Luo Jiu's bedroom, he saw Lin Fu standing behind the wall.
"What's wrong?" Xu Shaojun asked.
But before Lin Fu could answer, Luo Jiu heard this and ran out of the room.
"Yo~ you've finally come back." Luo Jiu said in a sarcastic tone.
"They won't let me out. Your adjutant Lin is even keeping an eye on me here. You're such a busy man, you've finally returned. Say something and let me leave."
"Why are you leaving so suddenly? Zhou Ming's matter hasn't been resolved yet. It's not safe for you to go out."
Xu Shaojun didn't know what had happened, but he just instinctively didn't want Luo Jiu to leave.
"That's still better than staying here with you. If you sell me off one day, I'll have nowhere to cry."
Luo Jiu wore a deep red dress today, making her look exceptionally charming.
As he spoke, his eyebrows were raised. His fox-like eyes were drawn out and narrowed, giving him the air of a feisty woman arguing.
But in Xu Shaojun's view, no matter what kind of Luo Jiu she was, she was always charming.
"Why are you saying that? Who wants to sell you? Nobody wants to sell you. Stop being so temperamental, be good."
"Lin Fu, what's going on?"
Xu Shaojun coaxed Luo Jiu gently, then turned to Lin, the adjutant, and asked in a low voice.
"Miss Shi and the Commander bumped into each other on the street today."
Because of what you said yesterday, I didn't stop it. Miss Shi was taken away right in front of Miss Luo.
Xu Shaojun was also frustrated after hearing this. What he said was true. But…
Why didn't you stop them?
"Xu Shaojun asked loudly, frantically giving Lin Fu meaningful glances."
As expected of partners for so many years, Lin Fu understood immediately.
"Well... normally, I could try to stop them. But today, the Commander just happened to run into us. He's Miss Shi's father, Miss Luo, so I couldn't stop him!"
"Jiu'er, there's nothing I can do about it!"
The two of them were acting like they were putting on a charade, and Luo Jiu couldn't believe it.
It's understandable that they couldn't stop them, but if they didn't even try to stop them, does that make sense?
Xu Shaojun, I thought you would definitely keep your promise to me.
Sure enough, men are all big pigs.
"Major General, I don't think we're that close yet, so please don't address me so intimately."
Thank you very much for your care these past few days, Major General. I am leaving today; whether it brings good fortune or misfortune, I will bear the consequences myself.
Luo Jiu seemed to have calmed down, speaking to Xu Shaojun in a flat tone. But this was even more frightening than when Luo Jiu was angry.
Xu Shaojun knew that he had acted dishonestly and had no one else to blame but himself.
He stared intently into Luo Jiu's eyes, trying to see a trace of reluctance in them, but... there was nothing there.
It was just a scene of calm and tranquility.
Xu Shaojun pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "Since you want to leave so badly..."
"Alright then."
...
"Major General, what about Miss Luo?"
Lin Fu was somewhat incredulous. He had risked his life to hold Luo Jiu back, preventing her from leaving, but unexpectedly, once Xu Shaojun returned, he would let her go so easily?
"Lin Fu, do you think Luo Jiu..." really likes me? Why haven't I felt that way since that night?
But... it's okay.
Since you said you like me, then you should keep liking me.
Leaving? How could I? It's mine, and no one can take it away.
I'll make sure you come back obediently.
You'll realize that only by my side is it truly safe, your haven. The outside world is far more disgusting than you imagine.
