Chapter 567 Refusal to Confess
Lu Shixu was so happy that he felt like he was floating in the air when Qi Xu called him "Brother Xu" over and over again.
I couldn't help but confess my love to her.
"Xu Xu, I like you!"
After going through so much, Lu Shixu has come to understand his own heart. He loves the young doctor so deeply that he becomes sick with longing.
Qi Xu was stunned for a moment, pretending not to hear, and tried to change the subject with a joke.
"Mr. Lu, you haven't eaten yet, right? Let's eat together."
The three words "Mr. Lu" represent rejection and also represent her attitude.
Qi Xu is an emotionally dull person, and her whole mind is focused on revenge and career.
I have no interest in love and have no feelings about it.
Qi Xu is not interested in any of them, whether they are rich young masters, entertainment stars or top talents.
In her heart, men can never be relied upon.
It is better to rely on yourself than on others.
Just like Qi Wangxing, the Zhongshan wolf, his mother treated him so well, supporting him from a Phoenix man to the president of a home furnishing chain company. In the end, his reward was deception, infidelity, betrayal, and physical harm.
Therefore, Qi Xu doesn't want to fall in love, get married, or bet his future on his significant other.
When Lu Shixu heard that unfamiliar name, the smile on his face froze.
"Xu Xu, why are you calling me Mr. Lu again?"
Qi Xu twitched his lips. "I'm used to calling him that. I think Mr. Lu is really nice. He really suits your image and temperament."
Lu Shixu was speechless.
Mr. Lu is no different from a stranger.
What image and temperament? The word "Mr." has the inner meaning of representing the gender of male compatriots.
So in her eyes, he is just an ordinary man?
"Xu Xu, I like you calling me Brother Xu."
Qi Xu paused mid-sentence, put down her chopsticks, and answered seriously.
"Mr. Lu, calling me Brother Xu sounds a bit ambiguous. I don't think it's appropriate."
"I was intrusive just now. I'm sorry."
If the previous sentence "Mr. Lu" was perfunctory, then this sentence "inappropriate" is a naked rejection.
Lu Shixu's boiling blood froze into frost.
He had never been attracted to any girl since he was a child. This was the first time he confessed his love to her, but he was rejected so decisively. He was really shocked.
"What's wrong with me?"
Qi Xu lowered his eyes and said lightly.
"It has nothing to do with you. I have a lot of unresolved issues and don't want to deal with complicated interpersonal relationships."
Lu Shixu asked urgently.
"What's the matter? Are you in trouble? I can help you solve it."
"Need not!"
Qi Xu refused bluntly.
She knew Lu Shixu had the ability to help her solve all her problems, but she didn't want to owe him such a big favor because his intentions were obvious.
Once you ask him for help, you might have to pledge your life to him.
She knew that he had a fiancée and that he had deep feelings for her.
If I get involved with this man, I will probably become a mistress.
And what she hates most is the mistress.
Her original family was destroyed by a mistress.
Therefore, even if she wanted to find a rich, powerful man to bring down Qi Wangxing's family, she was unwilling to find Lu Shixu.
How can a man who is fickle, easily attracted to other women, and wants both a white moonlight and a pretty beauty be a good man?
"Xu Xu, don't reject me like that. I really want to help you, please trust me."
Whether he was sincere or not, Qi Xu had no intention of accepting it.
She clearly understood one thing: if a man is nice to a woman for no reason, he must have some ulterior motive.
She also thought that she could use her beauty to find a rich and powerful man to help her.
But this man must have character.
It was obvious that Lu Shixu's heart was not pure enough. It was not worth her risking her life.
She couldn't even deal with Qi Wangxing alone, let alone Lu Shixu, a son of a high-ranking official and a wealthy family.
Being involved with him is like playing with fire. Once you are stuck in the quagmire, there is no way out.
She couldn't afford the worst consequences, nor could she guarantee that she could extricate herself perfectly in the future.
So, she consciously kept her distance from him.
Refuse decisively and openly.
Don't give others hope, and don't cause trouble for yourself.
Lu Shixu sighed softly and said nothing more. He just lowered his head and silently peeled the crab for her.
"Xu Xu, you are too thin, eat more."
“Okay, thank you!”
Qi Xu was concentrating on eating, no longer looking at him, nor dwelling on his previous confusing words.
As if nothing had ever happened.
However, Lu Shixu was injured several times by crab thorns because he was restless.
He even clumsily broke the bone plate.
"I'm sorry. I'm so stupid. I'll clean it up."
The sharp porcelain fragments scratched his fingers, and a few drops of bright red blood oozed out and dripped onto the white jade porcelain, forming blood flowers.
As a surgeon, Qi Xu would have an instinctive professional reaction whenever he saw blood.
She grabbed Lu Shixu's finger and put it in her mouth.
The silky and warm touch made the blood in his body boil.
My whole body felt hot, as if I had been poisoned by heat.
Qi Xu raised her eyes and met his flaming eyes. The lust in them almost swallowed her whole.
She swatted his fingers away, apologizing profusely.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry."
"I didn't have any iodine or band-aids here, so I thought of using my saliva to disinfect you."
"I, I, I, when I was a kid, I cut my finger and my mother helped me like this."
Qi Xuyi got excited and started stuttering again.
"Um, no, no, no, it's okay. I, I, I..."
Lu Shixu's body reacted violently. He was even more embarrassed than she was, and his words stuttered even more than hers.
I wish I could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
"Well, you have a good rest. I, I, I, I'm going to take a shower first."
"Well, well, you can't take too many cold showers. Yes, yes, yes, it's bad for your health."
Even though he stuttered, Qi Xu never forgot his professional duties as a doctor.
Lu Shixu waved his hand and explained through gritted teeth. "I, I, I, I know. I can handle it myself."
"Okay...Okay, keep going!"
Oh my god, what a socially disastrous stuttering scene.
Can't you just keep this tacit understanding to yourself? Why do you have to explain it in a stammering way? Are you afraid that the other person won't understand because they don't have enough comprehension?
After saying this, Qi Xu wished he could slap himself to death.
At this time, in this situation, why not say something else? Why is this damn mouth saying "come on"?
It would be fine if he just said "come on", but why did he stupidly clench his fist and make a cheering gesture?
It's so stupid.
Lu Shixu ran into the bathroom with a red face, his mind full of the silly and stuttering appearance of the young doctor.
So cute and stupid.
He was obviously eager to put out the fire, but he was still asked to cheer him up.
Do you want to make this damn desire burn even more fiercely?

Hey everyone, I saw the second version of the short play online yesterday, called "Fake Play: The Cold-Faced Husband Can't Hide Anymore." I finished watching it and was a little speechless afterward. Hahahaha, my Pao Ye, my Qiqi! Hahahaha! I still prefer Teacher Cao's alluring abs!
