Pulling Bai Lu away wasn’t an act of fleeing; she truly didn’t want to stay in this place any longer!
Let this group of riff-raff rot here!
But just as she brushed past Qin Mobai, she heard him say in his deep voice, "Lou, I asked you to come to my office, did you forget?"
Qin Mobai’s voice wasn’t scary, but with his cold gaze, Lou Xi felt a chill down her back.
Yet she stubbornly held her neck, "I didn’t agree. Nowadays, we advocate freedom and democracy; you can’t force me to do something I don’t want to do."
"Contradicting your senior at the slightest disagreement, is this your usual style?" The indifferent voice reached Lou Xi’s ears, as well as the ears of all the students present. "Making noise in the library, you think you’ve done right?"
Lou Xi’s body stiffened and she slowly turned her head to meet Qin Mobai’s cold gaze.
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Li Ruolan’s smiling face.
Lou Xi sneered, "Young Master Qin, drawing a conclusion about me upon first meeting, you are truly arbitrary. But if you feel I’ve contradicted you, I have nothing to say, since I stumbled upon your affair. As for the commotion in the library..."
She glanced around, "I still say, a library is for studying, not for romance. If you really can’t help it, booking a hotel room isn’t expensive."
That last remark was directed at Qin Mobai.
Li Ruolan, not knowing what had happened earlier with Qin Mobai, thought Lou Xi was implying something, and immediately her eyes welled with tears as she said tremulously to Lou Xi, "Don’t distort the facts."
Lou Xi looked at her, her eyes filled with coolness, "Oh, really?"
Her dismissive words made Li Ruolan’s tears fall in large drops, feeling utterly wronged.
"Young Master Qin, it’s not like that, it’s Li..."
"Bai Lu, don’t say anymore, let’s go!" Lou Xi grabbed Bai Lu, who was about to explain, feeling that saying more would just be a waste of words.
Bai Lu was thus pulled away by Lou Xi, without uttering half an explanation.
Qin Mobai watched their retreating backs, his dark eyes growing incomprehensibly profound.
"Young Master Qin..." Li Ruolan spoke softly, looking pitiful.
Unexpectedly, Qin Mobai returned her gaze with a cold look, making her swallow her half-said words.
He said in a deep voice, "A library is for studying, not for romance. Don’t disturb other students’ studies!"
Li Ruolan’s face turned pale, not expecting Qin Mobai to be so merciless, she could only apologize, "I’m sorry, Young Master Qin, Zichen and I understand our mistake, it won’t happen again."
Qin Mobai said not a word, furrowing his brows slightly, a low pressure emanating from him, everyone could sense he was somewhat displeased.
Then she only heard him ask, "Zichen?"
Zhou Zichen quickly responded, "Hello, Young Master Qin, I’m Zhou Zichen, is there something you need me for?"
Suddenly, Qin Mobai’s pupils contracted, his eyes full of coldness as he looked at Zhou Zichen.
Last night, when that girl got drunk and started acting up, she shouted "Zhou Zichen" repeatedly, and amidst her tears, she talked about being cheated on. He got annoyed with it, then doused her with a glass of cold water to make her calm down.
The blood rushed to his head, but he suppressed it with great effort, turned around, and walked out of the library, leaving behind a cold and indifferent figure.
