Chapter 13 The Witchcraft Boy 12
"It is precisely because of him that I feel uncomfortable when he is so kind to me for no reason. If he had made any requests, I wouldn't have felt so guilty."
“Host, then we can ask him what he wants and grant him one request,” 003 replied after thinking for a while.
“That makes sense.” Xu Qiuqiu was about to speak after hearing 003’s suggestion when the sound of hooves approached, and a man riding a black horse blocked their way.
He was riding a black horse, dressed in light blue clothes, and was exceptionally handsome. His gaze was fixed intently on Xu Qiuqiu.
"003, is this the male lead?" Xu Qiuqiu looked at the man in front of her. She thought he was handsome, but he was still a bit inferior to Qi Chen.
"Yes, host."
"I'm going to report him for cheating. He was just miles away a moment ago, and now he's right in front of me. If I hadn't confessed quickly, this would have been a disaster." Xu Qiuqiu muttered to 003, wondering if he could somehow shrink the distance between people.
“Host, you can’t report this. Besides, the male lead didn’t cheat. His horse is the best horse, and riding a horse is indeed much faster than driving a car,” 003 explained in a low voice.
Qi Chen looked at the man in front of him. His eyes were fixed on Xu Qiuqiu, which made him feel very uncomfortable. He unconsciously moved his body in front of Xu Qiuqiu to block Qi Gu Nan's gaze.
Qi Gu Nan's gaze turned cold as he dismounted and slowly approached.
He ignored Qi Chen and looked at Xu Qiuqiu behind Qi Chen. His gaze became gentle and affectionate. "Xiao Qiu, will you come back with me?"
Looking into the man's affectionate eyes, Xu Qiuqiu almost believed him if she hadn't read the script.
Qi Chen watched as their eyes met, and he suddenly felt restless and uneasy. Qiu Qiu had said she liked him…
The veins on the back of his clenched hands were bulging.
Qi Gunan stretched out his hand and looked at Xu Qiuqiu with certainty, as if he knew she would definitely go back with him. "Xiao Qiu, let's talk about any misunderstandings when we get back."
Qi Chen looked at the scene and felt a strange sense of familiarity, as if he saw the girl making the same choice again and again: to put her hand in the man's hand and leave his side.
Countless times, countless times, no, I can't. Qi Chen's gaze gradually turned gloomy. Before he could make a move, the girl suddenly grabbed his arm.
His inner turmoil suddenly subsided.
"There's no misunderstanding, Young Master Qi. Don't look for me anymore, I'm going home." Xu Qiuqiu gripped Qi Chen's arm tightly, hoping that the second male lead would be firm and not give up on her because of a few words from the male lead.
Young Master Qi? Qi Gunan looked at Xu Qiuqiu and saw that her appearance had lost its former brightness, and she was flamboyant and passionate, unlike the gentle appearance he liked.
He frowned, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable. Why had she suddenly changed? "Xiao Qiu, did Qi Chen say something to you? Stop making trouble, come back with me, okay? Have you forgotten all the vows we made?"
Xu Qiuqiu rolled her eyes inwardly, but she couldn't let the persona she had just created with Qi Chen crumble, so she had to adopt a pitiful expression.
She looked at Qi Gu Nan and said, "Young Master Qi, please let me go. You clearly don't really like me. Let's cut ties from now on. I'm going home. I hope you won't stop me anymore."
"How could that be? Silly Xiaoqiu, I really like you, truly. Don't be angry with me anymore, and don't listen to what others are saying." Qi Gunan looked at Xu Qiuqiu's sad eyes and felt that he still had a chance, so he continued to speak affectionately.
Xu Qiuqiu couldn't stand it anymore; she really wanted to break off all ties with him. The male lead's hypocritical behavior made her want to vomit.
"Qiuqiu said she won't go back with you, cousin, don't keep nagging here." Qi Chen was almost at his limit. He didn't want to hear Qi Gu Nan talk about their past, about vows of eternal love. He didn't want to imagine how intimate they had been before. It made him feel terrible, like he wanted to destroy everything.
Qi Gunan lowered his hand and looked at Qi Chen. He smiled contemptuously, "What business is it of yours what happens between Xiao Qiu and me?"
He then looked at Xu Qiuqiu and said, "Xiao Qiu, don't be fooled by Qi Chen's appearance. He's a monster. His parents died at his hands. You're going to follow him..."
Before he could finish speaking, Qi Gunan was unable to utter a word and collapsed to the ground in agony. He felt as if insects were gnawing at his internal organs.
Qi Chen's face turned cold. Without saying a word, he pulled Xu Qiuqiu into the carriage, mounted his horse, and drove away.
Xu Qiuqiu had never seen Qi Chen like this before, and it frightened her. So when Qi Chen forcefully made her get into the carriage, she didn't dare to move at all and obediently followed him.
However, her mind was in a mess. What Qi Gu Nan had just said was too explosive. Did Qi Chen kill Qi Chen's parents?
"003, is what the male lead said true? But I don't think Qi Chen is that kind of person." Xu Qiuqiu was a little scared, but after calming down, she thought about it carefully and realized that he had never hurt her. She couldn't doubt the second male lead's cold-bloodedness just because of one sentence from the male lead.
"Host, I don't know either. But I also think the second male lead isn't that kind of person. His storyline is pitifully short, so the system can't find out either," 003 said helplessly. It wanted to tell the host, but it really couldn't find out.
