Chapter 758: Thank God I Didn’t Say That I Like Him
“Do you like me, then?” Su Qianxun’s voice was trembling. She gazed nervously at the man who stopped in his tracks. At that instant, she swore she could hear her heart skip a beat.
Long Sijue stood still. Light shone on him and made his figure appear taller and leaner. However, there was an air of loneliness around his silhouette.
There was dead silence in the bedroom. Second passed, and Su Qianxun could not see his facial expression. All she could do was wait for his reply. Her mind was completely blank.
The look in Long Sijue’s eyes was deep and indecipherable. His lips moved, but he eventually stayed silent and strode out of the room instead.
The moment the door closed, Su Qianxun felt like a deflated balloon and became dejected. She walked away numbly and plopped down on the couch. In that instant, she felt as though she had lost all her strength.
‘Thank God, I didn’t say that I like him!’
She thought that she had to be going crazy. She had seriously forgotten her place and asked him such a question.
‘But why do I feel so upset?’
Long Sijue stood outside the room. He fixed his gaze on the door the entire time, and his long fringe hid the emotions in his eyes. She would never know that her presence had brought some warmth into his cold world.
The phone started ringing again. Su Qianxun finally snapped out of her reverie. She immediately got up, ran to the bedside, and answered the phone.
“Su Qianxun, do you use your phone as a home decoration? Why didn’t you answer my call earlier on!?” Rong Yebai bellowed.
His voice was too loud. Su Qianxun felt like her eardrum was shattering. She quickly moved the phone slightly farther away. “I was taking a nap, and I just woke up.”
“Don’t tell me you didn’t see my missed calls. You just returned the director’s call!” As Rong Yebai thought of that, he became even more furious.
“Oh, right. I just called the director back... and I forgot about you.”
There was a hint of disappointment in Su Qianxun’s voice. She did not know why she was disappointed either. Frankly, she should not have forgotten her place and asked that question.
Rong Yebai was so furious he felt like he was about to vomit blood. “You... heartless, ungrateful woman!”
Standing next to him, George saw the look on his face and rolled his eyes. Rong Yebai had waited for days. Every day, he acted like a sexually frustrated lion looking for a lioness. When he learned about the award, he finally found an excuse to call Little Xun’er on the phone instantly. When he eventually reached her, he lost the ability to speak properly...
‘Oh, Young master Rong. You are not only childish, but you also have extremely low emotional intelligence. This time, he will very likely end up heartbroken.’
“Why are you calling me? What do you want to tell me?” Su Qianxun asked.
Rong Yebai was dumbstruck for a moment.
“Hello? What happened? Why were you so eager to call me?” Su Qianxun fumbled with the fringe of her bedding out of boredom.
“Our work got nominated, and we’re partners. Obviously, I wanted to tell you about it... Besides, the two of us have to attend the award ceremony. We also have to decide what to wear so that our outfits match,” Rong Yebai faked a cough and said.
“Oh, I see. Thank you, then. This is my first time attending an event like this. I don’t know better. Can you help me out?”
“What’s wrong? You sound unhappy. Did Long Sijue bully you again?” Rong Yebai asked anxiously.
“No...”
There was a long pause.
“Don’t worry about the outfit. I can deal with that. I’ll send yours over to you.”
“Alright, thanks. I have to reply to my friend’s messages, so I’m hanging up. Bye-bye.”
Once Su Qianxun hung up, she listened to Gu Mian’s voice message and replied.
After Long Sijue returned to the office, he immediately dialed a number on his phone.
