Chapter 264
Su Yicheng?
It was strange . During this time, Luo Xiaoxi hadn’t been missing him crazily like she was when the car accident just took place .
It was not because she was too busy, nor it was because her parents finally recovered .
She just carefully placed Su Yicheng at the safest place in her heart, just like Su Jianan used to hide her love for Lu Boyan deep inside .
On that day, as usual, Luo Xiaoxi set off to the hospital after work .
Lao Luo actually was able to be discharged but stayed because he wanted to keep her wife in company . Therefore, Luo Xiaoxi naturally saw the hospital as her second home as well and didn’t go home until 11 o’clock at night .
However, today was a bit different, because the moment she stepped out of the elevator, she froze—
At the other end of the hall, her mother, who seemed to have awaited her for long, was walking toward Luo Xiaoxi .
After confirming again and again, she was finally sure she’s not imagining things . Her mother had been in a wheelchair after she woke up, and now, she could finally stand on her feet!
“Mom!”
Luo Xiaoxi screamed out of happiness and rushed to hug her mother .
Mrs . Luo smiled tenderly and patted her daughter’s back . “Xiaoxi, it must be hard for you during the past few days . ”
“Not at all!” Luo Xiaoxi jerked her head, her eyes tearful already . “As long you and Lao Luo recover, I’ll do whatever it takes!”
At the moment, Luo Xiaoxi felt that lady luck might start to favor her again .
Her parents were both discharged from hospital and Lao Luo started to get his hands on the company affairs . Therefore, when she did not know what to do, Luo Xiaoxi wouldn’t have to worry like she used to, because she could just throw the case to Lao Luo .
Sometimes, she would even discuss s certain company project with Lao Luo, and they would get so heated up in a discussion till their faces redden if they had different opinions . However, in the end, they would always end up bursting into laughter together .
“Nasty girl . ” As if he were scolding her, Lao Luo poked on the space between his daughter’s brows, but his poking carried a parental tenderness . “I’ve just been discharged . Why won’t you yield to me?”
“Cut it! out” The scattered files swished on the surface of the table, it was Luo Xiaoxi putting them aside . “You’ve recovered long ago! Plus, it’s about the company’s interest . I can’t be careless about that . ”
“…” Lao Luo sighed as if he had been badly hurt .
Luo Xiaoxi chuckled and wished that her life could always be like this .
On Friday night, Luo Xiaoxi was invited to an evening banquet .
In the past, if attending an occasion like this, Luo Xiaoxi would dress so sexily and glamorously to make sure that no man on the scene could take their eyes off her .
However, after getting used to black, white, or grey suit, she turned to keep a low profile as Su Jianan did . Now, in choosing dresses, she would pick elegance over sexiness . Thus she put on a black strapless gown, accompanied by a set of diamond jewelry .
After making herself up, she skillfully took a selfie in front of the mirror and sent it to Su Jianan on Wechat .
Su Jianan had gone off work and stayed at home now . So, soon, she responded with a question mark, along with a sentence: What are you trying to say?
“I’m the ‘junior Director Luo’ in Luo Enterprise, so I gotta be composed and elegant!” After typing that, Luo Xiaoxi added a coy emoji behind it, so Su Jianan had to reply with a series of dots .
Having just arrived in time at the hotel, Luo Xiaoxi handed their invitations to the receptionist with her arm in Qin Wei’s . Qin Wei joked . “Will people take us as a couple seeing us like this?”
“We nearly became a couple . ” Luo Xiaoxi compressed her lips and smiled proudly as she used to . “But you missed your shot . ”
“Well . ” If it were on another occasion, Qin Wei would have rolled his eyes at her words already .
Having taken a few steps with Luo Xiaoxi’s arm in his, Qin Wei suddenly slowed down . He lifted his chin to someone in front of them, signaling Luo Xiaoxi to look in that direction .
It was Su Yicheng, without a companion .
Luo Xiaoxi’s smile froze at that moment, and suddenly turned around grabbing Qin Wei’s hand . However, Qin Wei calmly stopped her from fleeing .
“Are you afraid?” Qin Wei smiled as if he had seen her through .
“Afraid, my foot!” Luo Xiaoxi hurridly denied, looking into Qin Wei’s eyes, and her eyes betrayed her guilty feeling .
She felt a little mad and embarrassed, so she jerked her head away to hide her feelings .
However, the truth was she was lying . Now, she felt like when she saw Su Yicheng for the first time in her teens . She couldn’t even control her heartbeat back then . Now, when he didn’t bring a companion with her, she also secretly felt elated .
“Admit it, Luo Xiaoxi, you’ll always be a wimp in front of Su Yicheng . ”
Qin Wei glanced at Luo Xiaoxi . “I’m going to meet with a few friends . Are you going with me?”
Luo Xiaoxi quickly pulled her arm from Qin Wei’s . “I don’t want no toxic friends of yours . You go ahead . ”
The moment Qin Wei left, Su Yicheng headed straight to her .
Luo Xiaoxi secretly clenched her fists and her racing heart seemed to pop out of her throat . She almost wanted to escape .
Nevertheless, before she had a chance to put her thoughts into actions, someone dragged her away by hand .
It was crowded in the ballroom, so Luo Xiaoxi didn’t dare to yell . She kept struggling but couldn’t get rid of Su Yicheng’s hand at all, which was like a secure lock .
Su Yicheng brought her into a room .
The chandelier of the room was not lit, only dim sconces were on, leaving the atmosphere suggestive . Su Yicheng pinned Luo Xiaoxi onto the wall, his chest slightly heaving . She could smell the familiar scent of his .
Luo Xiaoxi swallowed and tried to sound as calm as possible . “What do you want?”
Su Yicheng fixed his gaze on her .
His gaze appeared more intense against the dim lights, almost burning Luo Xiaoxi .
Dazed, Luo Xiaoxi only saw a dark figure shadowing her, and then a familiar touch hit her lips…
