“You’re horrible, I hate Black Jack the most.” Jian Luo’s glistening eyes reproachfully stared at him, lips pursed in a cherry blossom pink pout.
“It’s clearly you that broke our promise, we agreed to tell each other if we fell for someone else. You promised me, said you would be there whenever I needed you. That day when I called you out to have a meal, you said you had a meeting to attend. But you were actually at that restaurant with Miss Lofer.”
The more he talked, the more aggrieved he felt. Jian Luo forcefully snatched his hand back, “You said you would never lie to me, but you did.”
Black Jack found himself at a loss for words. He thought Jian Luo had only seen the rumours in the newspaper but hadn’t thought that Jian Luo was at that restaurant that day too.
“Luo Xiaobai, let me explain, things aren’t what you think.”
“No, you lied, I won’t believe you anymore.”
At this moment, Jian Luo was like a puffed-up little leopard, all bristling and explosive.
Except for the first year of their acquaintance, Black Jack had hardly ever seen him in this state, causing a vast amount of worry and heartache.
“Luo Xiaobai, do you remember what you told me the last time we went on vacation with Bai Jue?”
Jian Luo was still mad and glanced at him but remained silent.
Black Jack continued, “Last time when we were on that island, you remarked how beautiful the sea was, and you wished to find a sapphire that resembled it after the holiday ended. The reason I found Tina Lofer that day was for this purpose. She had won a blue sapphire at an auction, and I was only seeking her out for that sapphire.”
Jian Luo briefly fell into a stupor, finally turning his head to look at Black Jack directly, “Did you really approach her for that sapphire?”
Hearing the softening of his tone, Black Jack took a sigh of relief, “What else then? You’re the one who sulked alone and wronged me while I was keeping your words in mind.”
“Where is the sapphire?” Jian Luo looked at him skeptically, obviously not entirely believing his words yet.
“Sent for designing and carving.” Black Jack replied matter-of-factly.
“Huh?” Wasn’t he supposed to fetch it for him?
“If I don’t send it for carving, how can I give a heartless dumbo a birthday present?” Black Jack glanced at him and said calmly.
After hearing that, the fire in Jian Luo’s heart gradually extinguished, “My birthday is still a long way off.”
Who knew he remembered his offhanded comment so precisely and even personally sought out a sapphire for him.
“What does it matter? I am preparing it in advance.” said Black Jack.
He originally wanted to give this dumbo a surprise, but now it’s ruined by him.
Ah, he must owe him a lot in his past life.
“And you and Miss Lofer?” Jian Luo grinned awkwardly.
“You believe everything the newspapers say?” Black Jack gave him a side glance, “She already has a boyfriend.”
Hearing this, a hint of brightness returned to Jian Luo’s jade-like face, he slowly said, “Alright, then I will forgive you this one time, but if there’s a next time you lie to me, hmph.”
Black Jack, “…”
This guy is really such a goody two-shoes when he gets the upper hand!
“Luo Xiaobai, you’ve finished your rant, isn’t it my turn now?”
Jian Luo innocently smiled, “What grievance? I don’t know anything about it.”
Meeting his blue gaze, Jian Luo felt slightly guilty and pushed his coffee into his hand, “Here, have some coffee.”
The chill from the cup in his hand made Black Jack furrow his eyebrows, looking up at him he asked, “Why is it iced coffee? You need to listen.”
This guy, with his delicate constitution, prone to colds and fevers whenever he catches a chill, still dares to drink something cold, definitely needs a lesson.
