"Luoxia Town?!"
"You're going to Luoxia Town?!"
Qu Long's mouth gaped open.
So shocked I could swallow a duck egg.
His response was a busy tone on the other end of the phone.
He stared blankly at his phone.
What happened to Zhuo Ge?
*
The next morning, Shen Zhiyi packed her luggage and opened the door, only to be startled to see Lu Yanzhuo blocking her doorway with a blank expression.
"Are you... alright?"
Lu Yanzhuo remained silent, took the luggage from her hands without saying a word, and walked downstairs.
"Hey? Why did you take my suitcase and bag?!"
Shen Zhiyi closed the door and chased after him.
He suddenly stopped, standing there like a wall.
She slammed into his back.
“You…” She rubbed her aching nose and looked at him with a hint of resentment.
Lu Yanzhuo turned around and looked down at her.
"I'll take you there."
Unexpectedly, Shen Zhiyi snatched the suitcase and bag away, saying, "That won't do."
"I promised someone else."
"You don't keep your word. I'm not like you."
She pressed the elevator button.
Under Lu Yanzhuo's terrifyingly deep gaze, he went downstairs, put his luggage in Cheng Qiyu's trunk with a big smile, and then climbed into his passenger seat.
The car sped away.
Lu Yanzhuo stood there, his shadow stretched long by the sunlight.
His eyes were fierce.
He suppressed all his surging anger and jealousy deep into his bones, until a frightening cracking sound came from the knuckles of his clenched hand.
He strode towards his SUV.
The car door slammed shut with a bang.
He stepped on the gas and sped away in the direction of the car that had just left.
Cheng Qiyu was originally smiling happily.
But as I drove on, I started to feel that something was wrong.
"Hey, Zhiyi, look, isn't someone following our car?"
Shen Zhiyi glanced indifferently at the rearview mirror.
A smile played on her lips.
"Yeah."
"I can't tell."
Cheng Qiyu dodged several traffic lights and found that the large SUV behind him was not only impossible to shake off, but was getting even closer.
He frowned. "I've really been followed."
Do you know the car owner?
Shen Zhiyi shook her head, "I don't know him."
"It's probably just a coincidence. They're going to Luoxia Town just like us."
She rested her chin on her elbow, smiling faintly as she admired the receding scenery outside the window.
Cheng Qiyu, however, felt it wasn't that simple.
He inexplicably felt that the car was dangerous.
Several times, it almost grazed the back of my car, but as if it was worried about something, it didn't crash into me, but just threatened me again and again.
They forced him to the side of the road.
He nervously swerved to avoid the car, until finally, after crossing an intersection, he was suddenly swerved to a stop by a vehicle that had cut him off.
Cheng Qiyu slammed on the brakes, gripping the steering wheel and panting, still shaken.
Amidst the billowing dust, the car door opened.
A tall and imposing figure descended.
He walked slowly towards them from the smoke and dust.
Cheng Qiyu frowned and looked at his face clearly.
It was him...
Lu Yanzhuo.
Zhiyi, that neighbor with the really grumpy face.
Lu Yanzhuo walked to the passenger side and knocked on the window.
Cheng Qiyu rolled down the car window.
Before I could even speak, an arm suddenly cut in and clicked open the door.
He opened the car door deftly.
He leaned over and unbuckled Shen Zhiyi's seatbelt.
"What are you doing?!" Shen Zhiyi exclaimed in shock and anger.
Lu Yanzhuo glanced at her but didn't answer. Instead, he lifted his eyelids and looked at Cheng Qiyu.
"I won't trouble you to deliver my people."
Under Shen Zhiyi's angry glare, he picked her up and carried her on his shoulder.
"Could you please open the trunk?"
He knocked on the car window again and spoke to Cheng Qiyu, who looked astonished.
His voice was deep and cold, yet his sharp gaze swept straight over him, sending chills down his spine.
Cheng Qiyu's hand trembled subconsciously.
Open the trunk.
Lu Yanzhuo raised an eyebrow, hoisted Shen Zhiyi onto his back, and walked towards the trunk.
"Lu Yanzhuo, let me go!" Shen Zhiyi kicked his shoulder in annoyance. "Who's your person!"
The thought that Cheng Qiyu was still watching them made her blush with embarrassment.
There are other people here.
What kind of hugging posture is that?!
"Stop fooling around." Lu Yanzhu patted her bottom. "Be quiet."
"Or I'll kiss you right here."
Shen Zhiyi immediately stopped moving.
She buried her head in his shoulder, her face flushed crimson.
It can only be hidden in her long, seaweed-like hair.
I dare not look up at people.
What kind of nonsense is he spouting?
Kiss her?
They had no relationship whatsoever, so who gave him permission to kiss her?!
Lu Yanzhuo took her luggage out of the open trunk, put his arm around her, and walked towards his car.
He threw all her belongings into his trunk.
Then open the passenger door and carefully place the person on your shoulder inside.
Shen Zhiyi lowered her head and bit her lip, refusing to look at him.
Lu Yanzhu leaned over and helped her fasten her seatbelt, locking it with a click.
He pressed his entire body against her.
"Look at me," he commanded in a low voice.
"No." Shen Zhiyi bit her lip and shrank back into the seat.
“You’re being unreasonable,” she muttered in protest.
Lu Yanzhuo's gaze swept from her lowered eyes to her shy face, and his Adam's apple bobbed.
He turned his head again and saw Cheng Qiyu still staring at them blankly.
He frowned in dissatisfaction.
