Luo Zheng frowned slightly and nodded. “Oh, I see! That’s such a shame… ”
“Since Qianqian was young, she had always loved dancing, so to her, this is a huge blow! Hence, she may be mentally unstable and wanted to take her anger out on you by hurting you…”
Xi Mubai glanced at Luo Zheng and explained calmly.
Luo Zheng listened, and suddenly felt puzzled. “Senior, what do you want to say?”
Upon hearing her question, Xi Mubai held his breath and suddenly felt awkward and embarrassed.
Perhaps, even he could not explain clearly his reason for saying such things.
However, he could not understand why he wanted to let Luo Zheng know that Xi Qianqian was not as horrid as she seemed… and he wanted her to forgive the latter. He seemed to want her to stop getting the wrong idea and not detest the Xi Family.
It was truly how he felt but as for the reason… he had no idea!
Luo Zheng suddenly snapped her fingers, and came to a realization. “Oh I get what you mean, Senior. Are you blaming me for leaving Miss Xi in the lurch and refusing to save her?”
That was the only reason she could come up with.
Xi Mubai loved his sister dearly and Xi Qianqian would have definitely complained to him. Besides, she had also given him four slaps. How could he not mind it?
He’s such an arrogant person and he had probably never been slapped before… Yet, he ended up getting slapped by a man-obsessed dimwit like me, how could he take it lying down?
Not bad. The more indignant he is, the happier I am!
“Senior Mubai, I am not a saint. Under the circumstances at that time, I was already unable to protect myself. How can I still save her? Besides, I didn’t know Miss Xi at all. Why do I have to take the risk for her?”
Luo Zheng grinned and continued, “Besides, Miss Xi brought her injury on herself. She wanted to betray me, so that the drug dealers would let her go. Yet, her plans backfired! Look at the other girls, weren’t they all fine? So, instead of questioning me here, why don’t you go back and teach Miss Xi not to backstab others, lest Heaven punishes her!”
Luo Zheng slightly raised her head and looked into his warm and gentle eyes. “You must understand, that retribution exists in this world. Kindness begets kindness and evil begets evil. It’s only a matter of time before karma strikes!”
Luo Zheng blinked playfully and turned around. “Of course, if Senior Mubai insists on blaming me and wants to take revenge, I’ll definitely entertain you! Anyway, I’ve already offended Miss Xi and Mrs. Xi. I don’t mind offending you too… ah!”
Before Luo Zheng could even finish speaking, she shrieked in terror.
The reason being, she felt him put an arm on her waist before pulling her back forcefully. He then fell back into his arms… he spun her around and pressed her against the wall, causing her to feel a chilly pain in her back,
“Luo Zheng, why did you change?”
Xi Mubai could not help but question her after hearing that she had deliberately misinterpreted his explanation in a provocative manner.
She was about to leave after provoking him.
At that instant, he seemed to have lost his gentlemanly composure and rationality as he grabbed her and pulled her back!
“Senior Mubai, what are you trying to say? Why don’t I understand!?!” Luo Zheng smiled, and pretended to ask him that in confusion.
To her surprise, he bent forward and moved closer towards her, so much that they were almost going to kiss.
Seeing this, Luo Zheng shunned without hiding her disgust at all.
All of a sudden, Xi Mubai asked, “Luo Zheng, you hate me, don’t you?”
She hates me, doesn’t she?
The simple sentence made Luo Zheng’s heart shrink and wrench up. She couldn’t bring herself to laugh at all.
Yeah, I hate him to the core.
I hate him from the previous life to the present and I wish that I’ll never have to be in contact with him again, but I never got to do it… So, even if I can’t let go, I’ll continue to be entangled with him, but in a different way.
Xi Mubai, we’re destined to be entangled with each other for the rest of our lives and never get a peace of mind.
One day, I’ll laugh while watching him cry after he ends up with nothing!
