Chapter 45 Very good, Lin Xingche, you're asking for death...
Her heart skipped a beat as she remembered what Tuanzi had just said.
So Lu Jinyuan really is this obsessive.
She hesitated for a moment, but still decided to confront Lu Jinyuan.
During dinner, Lu Jinyuan was elegantly cutting his steak, his purple eyes occasionally glancing at her, the doting affection in his eyes almost overflowing.
Su Jiaojiao put down her knife and fork, looked at him, and spoke in a soft, sweet voice:
"Brother Jinyuan, could you please remove the security camera in my room?"
I'm not used to it.
Lu Jinyuan paused in his steak-cutting motion, a fleeting hint of panic flashing in his purple eyes before he regained his composure. He put down his knife and fork, stood up, and walked to stand opposite her. Leaning slightly forward, his gaze was earnest, his voice low and husky, tinged with a hint of grievance:
"Jiaojiao, I'm just worried about your safety."
The island is remote; what if something unexpected happens...?
"But people can see me when I'm showering too."
Su Jiaojiao interrupted him, her tone tinged with helplessness.
Lu Jinyuan's ears instantly turned bright red, his hands clenched unconsciously at his sides, his knuckles turning white, and his voice carried a possessive, obsessive tone:
"I'm sorry, Jiaojiao, I just... wanted to see you all the time."
His gaze was fixed on her, filled with an almost frantic love, yet he maintained a half-step distance, never making any inappropriate move.
Her heart softened, and she ultimately gave in.
And this scene
Lin Xingche, who was hiding behind a tree outside the villa, happened to see this.
The boy was wearing a white hoodie
His light brown curly hair was tousled by the wind, and his amber eyes were filled with grievance and anger. He looked at Lu Jinyuan standing before Su Jiaojiao, his gaze burning, and clenched his fists so tightly his knuckles turned white. He silently vowed: My sister is mine, and no one can take her away!
He spent the whole afternoon squatting behind the tree, just waiting for Su Jiaojiao to come out.
But he never expected that this would be what he saw.
Lin Xingche bit his lip, a sly glint in his eyes.
He quietly circled around to the back of the villa.
While Lu Jinyuan and Su Jiaojiao were both in the restaurant
Sneaked into Su Jiaojiao's room
Just entered
He then saw a velvet box on the bedside table.
The box was open, and inside lay a diamond necklace. The pendant was a pink diamond the size of a pigeon's egg, dazzling under the light, clearly priceless.
Lin Xingche recognized it; it was a surprise gift Lu Jinyuan had prepared for Su Jiaojiao. He had seen Lu Jinyuan secretly put the box here that afternoon, planning to surprise Su Jiaojiao after dinner.
"Hmph, you want to give your sister a gift? No way!"
Lin Xingche snorted coldly, reached out and grabbed the necklace, stuffing it into his pocket.
He would never let his sister accept Lu Jinyuan's gift!
Clutching the box, he sneaked out of the villa, walked to the beach, and tossed the priceless necklace into the sea.
Watching the necklace sink to the bottom of the sea
A smug smile curled at the corner of the boy's mouth, like a kitten that had successfully stolen some fish:
"That way, my sister won't like him anymore!"
After doing all this
He clapped his hands and quietly left the island.
Su Jiaojiao and Lu Jinyuan were completely unaware of all this.
After dinner
Lu Jinyuan accompanied Su Jiaojiao into her room, intending to surprise her with the necklace. However, when he reached the bedside table and saw the empty box, his smile instantly froze.
The necklace is gone!
Lu Jinyuan's purple eyes instantly darkened, and the temperature around him plummeted.
He scanned the room, his gaze sharp as an eagle.
Who is it?
How dare you touch the gift he gave to Jiaojiao?
Lu Jinyuan's fingers slowly tightened, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes.
He quickly thought of someone
Besides that one who follows Jiaojiao around all day
Who else could be a little brat who keeps calling someone "sister"?
A cold smile curled at the corner of Lu Jinyuan's lips. He took out his phone, dialed a number, and his voice was as cold as ice:
"Check if Lin Xingche has been to the island."
The person on the other end of the phone responded, and a reply came quickly:
"Mr. Lu, we've found out. Young Master Lin did indeed sneak onto the island this afternoon and even went into Miss Su's room."
A hint of killing intent flashed in Lu Jinyuan's eyes.
very good
Lin Xingche
You're asking for it.
Meanwhile, Su Jiaojiao was leaning against the window, gazing at the moonlight outside, still thinking about what Tuanzi had said.
She glanced back at Lu Jinyuan's gloomy face, then tilted her head in confusion:
"Brother Jinyuan, what's wrong?"
Lu Jinyuan took a deep breath, suppressing the fierceness in his eyes.
Turning around, she reverted to her gentle demeanor, but the obsession in her eyes deepened: "It's alright, Jiaojiao, I might have misremembered. The necklace must be somewhere else."
…
The sound of waves crashing against the window filled the air, and the moonlight shone brightly.
The reflection illuminates the two people standing opposite each other in the room.
And this fierce competition surrounding Su Jiaojiao has only just begun.
…
And so, the next few days...
As agreed, Su Jiaojiao went to meet Lin Xingche, Jiang Yi, and Gu Yanchen respectively.
Lin Xingche's invitation to the amusement park was scheduled for Saturday morning. Just as dawn was breaking, Su Jiaojiao's phone was bombarded with messages from the boy, making it buzz non-stop.
[Sister, sister! Wake up!]
I'm downstairs at your place! I brought soy milk and fried dough sticks from that old-fashioned shop in the south of the city! And your favorite strawberry glutinous rice balls!
[Hurry up and come down! I've been trying to snag those early bird tickets for the amusement park for ages!]
Su Jiaojiao, her hair a mess, walked to the window, lifted a corner of the curtain, and saw a flashy bright yellow sports car parked downstairs. The boy, wearing a cream-colored hoodie, his light brown curly hair slightly blown about by the wind, was carrying several shopping bags and standing on tiptoe, craning his neck to look in her direction, like a large golden retriever waiting to be fed at the door.
She smiled helplessly, quickly washed up and changed her clothes, grabbed her bag and went downstairs.
As soon as she stepped out of the building, Lin Xingche's eyes lit up, and he darted in front of her like a rabbit, shoving the breakfast he was carrying into her hands:
"Sister! Try it! I asked the owner to add extra sugar!"
Su Jiaojiao took a bite of the warm fried dough stick. The crispy texture mixed with a faint sweetness spread in her mouth, and she curved her lips into a smile:
"tasty"
The boy's amber eyes instantly lit up as if filled with stars. He reached out to help her tidy her wind-blown bangs, but stopped abruptly as soon as his fingertips lifted. Instead, he scratched the back of his head and chuckled:
"As long as it tastes good! I waited in line for half an hour!"
His movements were natural and restrained, and Su Jiaojiao saw this and her heart softened.
