Chapter 141: 0141 Smart girl Chapter 141: 0141 Smart girl And the woman across the street had also vanished without a trace.
Su Ran was still imprisoned in Fu Qiyuan’s embrace.
She wriggled uncomfortably, not quite understanding why he was holding her shoulders, to begin with, and why her head was still clasped against his chest. Any slight move she made, his grip involuntarily tightened.
They were already far from the hotel, and Su Ran’s entire body was starting to go numb.
“Um… could you let me adjust my position first?”
The man seemed puzzlingly unaware that he had been clutching the girl so tightly in his arms.
Fu Qiyuan slowly released her and asked.
Once she was liberated, Su Ran lazily stretched her limbs.
“No, it’s just a bit numb.”
Hearing that, Fu Qiyuan pulled her back, and Su Ran looked at him with a puzzled face. In the next second, she saw him slightly bend down as his distinctly jointed fingers gently massaged her calf.
Su Ran watched his strikingly handsome profile with shock, her clear eyes turning slightly red under the neon lights.
“Don’t move. Is there anywhere else that’s numb? Your arms?”
His voice was deep and pleasant, and even though she couldn’t see his face, the languidness in his tone said it all about his indulgence and affection at that moment.
“My arms are numb too.”
Her voice, cool with a touch of coyness, stirred something within Fu Qiyuan. He looked up to see a light trace of petulance on the girl’s exquisitely cold face.
Fu Qiyuan felt a softness in his heart, gently tousling her hair with a tender tone.
Without thinking, Su Ran immediately extended her right hand.
She didn’t understand why she was acting so coy, perhaps it was her greed for the warmth from his body, her greedy indulgence in his endless pampering.
Fu Qiyuan chuckled softly and placed the girl’s arm on his knee, gently pinching it.
The man’s expression was tender and serious, and the patchy street lamps outside the window bathed him in a halo of light that was impossible to look away from.
“Did you give the Qin family too much face today?”
The man’s movements paused for a moment, his ink-like eyes swept over her then continued.
“The person in charge of the Fu Consortium gracing us with his presence, isn’t that giving face to the Qin family?”
A flash of surprise crossed Fu Qiyuan’s dark eyes, and after a moment he subtly curled his lips, lighting up with a rippling glow.
He had never revealed his identity to her before, nor had he mentioned it.
The man looked at her with raised eyebrows. The only thing that might have given away his identity was the invitation, and there didn’t seem to be anything else.
“The invitation counts too!”
Su Ran’s lips curled slightly, her luminous eyes glowing with intelligence.
“Not many in Yong City could receive such a Supreme VIP Invitation, and besides, your surname is Fu. That’s one reason.”
Fu Qiyuan slightly curved his lips.
“And the second reason?”
Su Ran smiled lightly as she gazed at him.
“The second reason… the name Fu Qiyuan already says it all.”
Fu Qiyuan laughed softly, a low chuckle spilling from his throat as he slowly leaned closer to her, his gaze intense, his voice deep and carrying the heat of his breath.
“So, you knew all along?”
Su Ran shook her head.
“At first, it was just a suspicion. The invitation confirmed it, that’s all.”
Fu Qiyuan smiled, affectionately stroking her head.
