Luo Xiaoxi was staying in the room and she was nervous.
Although Lao Luo said that he would not object to her and Su Yicheng, she still was not sure about it.
She didn’t know how long it took, but the door was finally knocked on and Luo Xiaoxi ran over to open it. Maybe the action was too fast, for Su Yicheng looked like he was shocked.
Then Luo Xiaoxi realized that she had done it too urgently, so she scratched her hair. “You talked to my dad?”
“Yes.” After a pause, Su Yicheng said with a deep meaning, “I didn’t want you to wait too long.”
Luo Xiaoxi stared at Su Yicheng as if she was going to push him away. He then went into the room sideways and closed the door very smoothly.
“Why did you close the door, I…”
Before Luo Xiaoxi finished, she was pressed against the wall by Su Yicheng. His cool lips covered hers, and he kissed her eagerly and gently.
If Luo Xiaoxi’s feelings were not wrong, Su Yicheng seemed to be… very happy.
Luo Xiaoxi’s cheeks were red because of the kiss. Then Su Yicheng released her and put on a smile. “Your dad agreed.”
Luo Xiaoxi looked into Su Yicheng’s eyes and did not speak.
Su Yicheng thought that Luo Xiaoxi didn’t hear it clearly, so he repeated again, “Xiaoxi, your father agreed to our relationship.”
Luo Xiaoxi had never seen Su Yicheng this way.
After he shed his calm appearance and acted like a big boy who had gotten a loved one, he was happy with a pair of good-looking, shining eyes, just like the farthest but brightest stars in the night sky were in his eyes.
It turned out that he was happy because of this.
Luo Xiaoxi thought that what she did yesterday by taking the initiative to find Su Yicheng was right. He did not look down on her because she had shown initiative. On the contrary, he cherished her initiative and knew why she had taken it.
She was also right for stubbornly sticking to Su Yicheng for so many years. He knew her better than anyone.
Luo Xiaoxi stood on her tiptoes and took the initiative to kiss Su Yicheng’s lips.
Su Yicheng was stunned for a half-second and responded to her the first time. He surrounded Luo Xiaoxi’s waist, deeply immersed in her long-lost taste.
Taking into account that this was Luo Xiaoxi’s home, he let her go when he was still able to control himself.
The color of Luo Xiaoxi’s cheeks was redder than before. She coughed unnaturally. “I want to go to see Jianan after lunch, are you going?”
Su Yicheng answered, “Sure,” while taking Luo Xiaoxi downstairs.
After lunch, they drove straight to the hospital. Su Jianan was getting an injection, but her spirits were still good, and she was watching TV.
Seeing Su Yicheng and Luo Xiaoxi come in together, Su Jianan knew that everything was solved. Her mood suddenly improved a lot. He sat up and took an orange from the fruit bowl of the bedside table for Luo Xiaoxi. “My brother bought it yesterday. It’s sour.”
Luo Xiaoxi felt it strange. “Do you not eat sour oranges?”
Su Jianan smiled and said, “Someone has a confused memory.”
Luo Xiaoxi understood something and pouted, but could not hide the smile on her lips.
“You gals talk,” Su Yicheng chose to flee from the woman’s gossip scene, “I am going to find Dr. Tian.”
Luo Xiaoxi then ignored Su Yicheng when she had Su Jianan. She pulled up a chair and sat down in front of the hospital bed. Only then did she notice that Su Jianan’s left hand was swollen, and her white hand was covered with needle holes.
She distressedly picked up Su Jianan’s hand. “Because of the injections?”
Su Jianan lifted her right hand and said with a smile. “Already changed to this one. It has no effect.”
“Only you could still laugh about it!” Luo Xiaoxi was distressed but unable to do anything. “On such a cold day, and you have to take that for six or seven hours a day, how long can your other hand hold on?”
“Today I talked with Dr. Tian. They will use a fixed needle tomorrow. My right hand will not be swollen.” Su Jianan tilted her head and comforted herself. “It doesn’t matter if it is swollen, anyway, now I can’t even get out of bed. I don’t need to do anything with my hand.”
“You get better soon,” Luo Xiaoxi said at the bedside, “I want to go shopping with you! Let’s go to the children’s clothing store and buy all the good-looking children’s clothes!”
Su Jianan looked out the window. “I’ll try to hold back and not vomit.”
In fact, she was also afraid of the ward. Even if she couldn’t leave the hospital, it was always good to go out.
Su Jianan didn’t know if it was the injection or her wishes were heard, but in the next two days, her state was very good. Although she still vomited when she got up in the morning, she now could stop it, and her three meals and sleep had also become normal. Her complexion looked good after two days of rest.
On the third day, Su Jianan spoke with Dr. Tian about letting her go out and getting back before dark.
“Yes, it is always bad for you and your children if you are stuck in the hospital.” Dr. Tian took out the needle for Su Jianan. “But don’t eat something strange after going out, and if you are tired, come back quickly.”
“I know, thank you, Dr. Tian.” Su Jianan changed her clothes, and she happily went straight to the mall with Luo Xiaoxi.
During the New Year, there were not so many customers in the mall, which was exactly what Luo Xiaoxi wanted—so that no one would bump into Su Jianan!
They started from the cosmetics and jewelry counters on the first floor. When Luo Xiaoxi tried to put on a necklace, Su Jianan suddenly remembered something and looked calm.
Luo Xiaoxi poked her arm. “What happened?”
“This mall…” Su Jianan stopped talking.
Luo Xiaoxi also remembered, but she answered like it was nothing. “This shopping mall is owned by Lu Enterprises. What are you worried about? We will still pay! Besides, isn’t the mall open to welcome customers? I don’t believe that Lu Boyan would have people stop us from shopping!”
Su Jianan thought about it and agreed. She just came to visit the mall as an ex-wife. Lu Boyan would not even hear about it, not to mention would he know.
“Let’s go!” Luo Xiaoxi found that the necklace was not suitable, so she took it off and gave it to the clerk and pulled Su Jianan to the second floor. “Let’s go see the clothes.”
As a result, Luo Xiaoxi did not find anything she liked, but instead, she helped Su Jianan find a shirt and handed it to Su Jianan. “Wanna try it?”
“Forget it,” Su Jianan pointed to her belly, “I can’t wear it any time soon.”
“Whatever. It’s good-looking, so just wear it as long you can!” Luo Xiaoxi called the shopping clerk to get the smallest size, pushing Su Jianan into the fitting room.
After waiting for a few minutes, Su Jianan finally came out, but still wearing her original clothes.
“It’s not suitable,” Su Jianan said.
Luo Xiaoxi knew what kind of clothes Su Jianan was suited for. She was pretty sure that she would look great if she wore this shirt, so she was puzzled. “Why is it inappropriate?”
Su Jianan described it with her hand. “The size is not suitable. There is a place that the button cannot be fastened…”
“The button?” Luo Xiaoxi first thought of the problem of the size, but Su Jianan did not become fat, and she used to wear this size.
Finally, Luo Xiaoxi’s gaze fell on Su Jianan’s chest, and she put on a deep smile.
Su Jianan was embarrassed and took Luo Xiaoxi to leave. “Let’s go to another shop!”
Looking at Su Jianan’s unnatural red face, Luo Xiaoxi started to act in a strange way. “Is it because of Lu Boyan?”
Su Jianan was sweating. “Xiaoxi, stop it!”
Luo Xiaoxi said to herself, “It turned out to be true. I thought that the argument was made by a wretched male to cheat a little girl.”
Su Jianan felt helpless. “Shouldn’t you be clear about if it was true?”
Luo Xiaoxi looked down at herself and said very innocently, “But… I have not changed.”
Su Jianan spread out her hands. “My brother’s fault?”
“Hey!” Luo Xiaoxi’s snorted. “Because my innate development is enough! If we can still grow, what are you going to do?”
“Luo Xiaoxi… enough!”
Luo Xiaoxi happily made a face, and they went all the way forward. When passing by the elevator, they saw two acquaintances without warning.
Lu Boyan and Han Ruoxi.
They stood side by side, looking like a perfect match. The elevators slowly descended and they were getting closer and closer to Su Jianan.
It was as if Su Jianan was enchanted, and she couldn’t move at all.
After that night when Lu Boyan got drunk and called her, she never heard from him again.
Counting the days, they actually didn’t see each other for less than half a month, but she felt as though she had been through a century.
Fortunately, Lu Boyan looked very good, just like the one she saw in the magazine before, noble and alienated, handsome but also cold, exuding a kind of chill that refused people thousands of miles away, but still sultry.
With Han Ruoxi, he might also live very well.
Su Jianan removed her gaze and blinked her eyes. She pulled Luo Xiaoxi. “Let’s go.”
Luo Xiaoxi grabbed Su Jianan. “Don’t go!”
On the Internet, everyone was talking about Lu Boyan and Han Ruoxi being together. She didn’t believe it, but they stood side by side, seemingly to overthrow her disbelief.
If Lu Boyan really forgot Su Jianan so quickly, she would tear Han Ruoxi up even if she couldn’t do that to Lu Boyan.
Luo Xiaoxi walked a few steps to the front of the elevator, blocking Lu Boyan and Han Ruoxi’s way. She smiled. “Boss Lu, Happy New Year.”
Han Ruoxi coldly commanded, “Luo Xiaoxi, step aside.”
“I am talking to my boss.” Luo Xiaoxi was originally a lot taller than Han Ruoxi, and she had a pair of high heels now. At this moment, she completely looked down on Han Ruoxi. “Who are you?”
Han Ruoxi thought it was funny. “Luo Xiaoxi, have you forgotten that you are just a newcomer to the entertainment industry?”
“Then what do you want to say, you old lady? Do you want to say that you could just ruin my career by moving your finger?” Luo Xiaoxi disdainfully sneered, and gestured to Han Ruoxi with her middle finger. “It’s true that I can ruin you in a second!”
Han Ruoxi’s face changed dramatically and she stepped forward. “Are you looking for trouble?”
“What can I do with a nobody?” Luo Xiaoxi gently pushed Han Ruoxi, pointing to Lu Boyan. “I am looking for him!”
Lu Boyan was used to Luo Xiaoxi’s arrogance, and she faintly said, “Say it, what do you want from me?”
Luo Xiaoxi instantly got grumpy. “Are you really with Han Ruoxi?!”
“An artist asking about the boss’s private life, I heard it for the first time.” Lu Boyan avoided the question of Luo Xiaoxi.
Luo Xiaoxi almost went mad. “Luo Boyan, do you think it’s funny?! Even if you divorced Jianan, you don’t have to treat yourself like this, do you?”
Lu Boyan looked down, and Su Jianan could see that he was going to be angry. She went up to pull Luo Xiaoxi. “Xiaoxi, let’s go.”
At this time, Han Ruoxi, who was pushed away by Luo Xiaoxi, suddenly pushed Su Jianan away. “Go? Not so easy, I will teach her the rules in this circle!”
Su Jianan failed to stand still, took two steps and fell back—
“Jianan!”
Luo Xiaoxi’s face changed greatly, and her eyes were full of horror…
