Chapter 377: Three Things

Rue pursed her lips, her eyes darted towards Chu Munan. "This man insisted that we take economic flights, ride a taxi, and just walked from the gates of Long Founding School of Elites because he was afraid that Xu Rong'er would follow us to Long City. That woman is crazy in love with him and he doesn't want to marry her, but instead of talking to her like a mature thirty-year-old man, he was running away like a f*cking child!"

Lyca's jaw dropped. This was the first time that she heard Rue said something so long! Was she angry?

"My feet hurt!" Rue added. "I am hungry because he refused to stop in a restaurant! We had been walking for a few minutes and my heels are killing me! I am hungry and tired!"

That should explain it! Turns out, being hungry and tired could make everyone angry!

Lyca squinted at Chu Munan. "Mr. Chu… you did a lot of things just to avoid your fiancee?"

"She's not my fiancee."

"But you were about to marry her, right?"

"That was because I thought I would die!" Chu Munan gritted his teeth. The reason why he agreed to this nonsense engagement before was that he thought was dying! Who would have thought that Lyca would suddenly appear in his life one day?

"Oh." Lyca nodded, disinterest flashed in her eyes. "You should carry Rue. She is tired. Act like a gentleman, ah."

"What about the suitcase?" Chu Munan asked.

"You drag it with you. I can drag it. I am just a weak woman, ah." She showed her arm. "So thin."

Chu Munan and even Rue were speechless. "I am good," Rue said after a few seconds of silence.

"No, it's good. Look at his muscles. This is a six-foot man with the right muscles. He should be able to carry your sixty-kilogram self. Just do a piggyback so he could still use his hands for the suitcase."

Rue awkwardly looked at Chu Munan. "No. I'm good. He won't be able to carry me. Let's go. Are were near?"

"Are you insulting me?" How could Chu Munan say no to Lyca's order? "I can do it." He would never act like a woman in front of Lyca!

"No. It's good."

"No. Let me carry you."

"I said, I'm good."

"I said, let me carry you!"

"No!"

"Come here! I will carry you."

"I said No!"

"I said come here!"

Lyca let out a sigh. "Ah, you two continue arguing. I am sleepy."

Who would have thought that she wouldn't stop them? Lyca actually started walking away from them!

"I told you! I will carry you! I won't let you continue walking like that! Let me carry you!"

"Stupid!" Rue hissed.

"Come here."

Rue let out a surprised squeal when Chu Munan suddenly pulled her towards him. He then squatted, giving her access to his back. "Come on. She is serious about leaving us here."

"Moron!" Rue said. However, she complied and attached herself to his back. The two—Rather, Chu Munan followed Lyca as Rue rode on his back. Of course, he didn't forget to drag the two suitcases behind him.

"So…" Chu Munan was already out of breath after a few minutes of walking. "Are we there yet?" He could see buildings nearby.

"Yes. A few more minutes."

"I — "He was about to faint! He could feel his strength leaving him. However, he decided to persevere. He couldn't faint in front of Lyca!

"Are you alright?" he heard Rue asked.

"Of course." Chu Munan made sure that his voice was loud enough so Lyca could hear him. "I might be sick but I still exercise in the mansion. I used to lift weights."

"Then why are you so thin?" Rue asked. Actually, Chu Munan doesn't have bulky muscles at all. Obviously, Lyca just lied earlier because she was too lazy to listen to them.

"I'm not thin."

"Of course you are. I saw your body. You have no muscles at all."

"You saw my body?" Chu Munan's already pale face lost all its color.

"Of course. I worked with Lai Su, remember?"

"That — Then you must be blind. I have muscles."

Rue rolled her eyes. Clearly, Chu Munan liked Lyca. In fact, when they were still in Ath Province, he would always ask her questions about Lyca's preference. Rue tried to tell him that Lyca is not like some normal princess. She was different.

However, the man just keeps on asking her questions. In the end, Rue told him that Lyca loves three things. Eating, sleeping, and Shen Qui.

The man stopped talking to her for a few days after that. She thought he decided to give up. Turns out he was learning how to cook. How stupid.

Did he miss the third thing that Lyca loved? It was Shen Qui! It was her husband!

"Jesus! What are you doing!?"

When Chu Munan heard his brother's voice, relief washed over him. He immediately gestured Rue to get down, and she immediately complied.

"Why are you carrying her?" Chu Nan's face was already dark. "Don't you know that my brother is sick? How dare you ask him to carry you?"

"I didn't ask him," Rue said. "He insisted."

"What? That is— "

"Nan… help me with this." Chu Munan handed the two suitcases to his brother. "I need to… enjoy the view here. Hey, you — " Chu Munan called out Rue. "Can you accompany me for a while?"

"No," Rue said bluntly. "I'm hungry. We didn't have food since we left Ath Province. I would rather eat than watch the view in the dark!" With that, she strode towards Lyca and the two just kept on walking towards the building.

Seeing them gone, Chu Nan let out a sigh of frustration. "Let's go."

Chu Munan didn't say anything. He just followed his brother inside.

"You know… you shouldn't like someone like her." This time, Cleo spoke. "I am Cleo, by the way. I am Lyca's assistant and I am telling you not to like her."

"Why is that?" Chu Munan asked.

"Because she won't like you."

"…"
