"I want to see you." Xu Shaojun stared intently at Luo Jiu with his dark eyes, thought for a moment, and then said these words.
Yes, I want to see you. Otherwise, your face, your voice, your every smile and frown wouldn't keep popping into my mind.
Luo Jiu frowned, turned her head, and said helplessly, "But, I don't really want to see you."
Xu Shaojun, seemingly struck by something, suddenly cleared his confused gaze, a flash of malice crossing his eyes.
He pulled Luo Jiu, who was standing to the side, and pushed her onto the sofa, then immediately bent down.
"Why don't you want to see me? Didn't you say you liked me?"
Xu Shaojun's voice was a little hoarse after drinking, but it was also damnably charming.
A pair of eyes stared intently at Luo Jiu, filled with doubt, confusion, and a hint of hurt.
Luo Jiu was stunned, and the words of cursing that were about to come out of her mouth were swallowed back.
Did I say I liked him?
When did this happen?
However, before Luo Jiu could figure it out, she was already being held in Xu Shaojun's arms.
The man buried his head in her ear, his warm breath washing over her cheek. She could still feel the warmth of his lips against her earlobe.
The temperature slowly rose. A suspicious blush crept onto Luo Jiu's face, appearing and disappearing in the dark room.
Why did you stop wanting to see me just when I started to like you?
"Don't you like it anymore?"
The man's voice was deep and resonant, lingering in Luo Jiu's ears. For a fleeting moment, it moved Luo Jiu.
Before Luo Jiu could figure out how to answer, she heard another sentence in her ear.
"No, you can't not like me!"
Xu Shaojun gripped Luo Jiu's hands tightly, his voice sounding terrifying.
He raised his head and looked at Luo Jiu, his eyes reddening with rage, like a furious lion.
"You don't like me anymore! Who do you like? Is it that pretty boy who asks you out?"
Luo Jiu looked at Xu Shaojun's change in disbelief. What kind of magical thought process was this?
"Pretty boy?" Are you referring to Su Hengzhe?
"Let go of me! I haven't fallen for Su Hengzhe."
What's wrong with this man? He likes to slam walls all the time.
"Then why do you go out with him every day? You go when he asks you to, but you don't come when I ask you to! And you even yell at me!"
Xu Shaojun's voice sounded very aggrieved, like a child who hadn't received any candy.
Luo Jiu was completely exasperated. How dare you say others are mean to you when you're being so fierce?
"You know why I...why I'm ignoring you," Luo Jiu said silently.
Even now, Luo Jiu still can't understand why Xu Shaojun promised her he wouldn't hand over Shi Zixi, but it was just to appease her.
"I……"
Upon hearing this, Xu Shaojun's eyes began to dart away, and the force with which he was holding Luo Jiu gradually loosened.
No, Luo Jiu thought to herself.
"Are you lying to me? You're not actually drunk?" Luo Jiu questioned.
When people are drunk, their thoughts are usually confused. Who would think for a long time before saying a word?
Isn't that how novels are written? Either the character is like a well-behaved child, answering every question; or the character sleeps soundly; or the character acts drunk and disorderly.
"I...I'm not..."
Xu Shaojun spoke haltingly, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He hadn't expected to be discovered so soon after sobering up.
