She couldn’t help but look up at him. “Rong Si, say it again.”

Looking at her eager expression, Rong Si suddenly wanted to tease her. He deliberately asked, “Say what again?”

“That I’m yours!”

He saw the look in her eyes turn to anticipation, as she was unaware that he was teasing her. The curve of his lips widened involuntarily. “Yes, of course you’re mine.”

Su Jiu was speechless.

What the hell?

She realized that this man was doing it on purpose!

“Rong Si, you’re playing with me!” She reached out and pretended to hit him, but he grabbed her hand. Then, before she could react, a kiss landed on her lips. She could feel his warmth and his breath so close to hers.

“Why are you trying to hit me? Did I say something wrong?”

When she met his deep and slightly hot eyes at such a close distance, her heart suddenly beat faster. She felt weak all over, as if all her strength had been sucked away.

Just as she was about to argue, Rong Si immediately deepened the kiss, blocking her words.

Although this was not the first time, Su Jiu’s heart could not help but thump as if it were about to jump out of her throat. She could only close her eyes with a red face and wrap her arms around his waist to cooperate with him…

***

On Saturday night, Su Jiu followed Rong Si to the restaurant Rong Cheng had specified on the phone. The waiter led them to a private room at the end of the corridor.

The waiter opened the door and respectfully said to the man sitting inside, “Mr. Rong, the guests have arrived.”

Su Jiu immediately saw the man. Rong Cheng was in his forties, and his hair was combed back, revealing a handsome face. He was wearing a well-tailored dark gray suit and a famous watch. Holding a glass of red wine, he was gently swirling it. He looked like a successful businessman.

If Su Jiu did not know him, she might think that he was gentle, refined, and elegant. However, in Su Jiu’s eyes, he looked hypocritical and detestable.

In Rong Si’s eyes, it was not as simple. At this moment, intense hatred surged in his eyes. He had been suppressing the hatred in his heart all these years, and now that he saw Rong Cheng, he wanted to kill him.

Su Jiu noticed that Rong Si’s hand was cold and that he had tightened his grip on her hand so much that it hurt. She knew that he was trying his best to control his emotions.

She looked up at the side of his face. As expected, his expression was so cold and sinister that it was scary. His thin lips were pursed into a straight line, and his sharp jaw was tense.

Su Jiu couldn’t help but hold his hand tightly. Rong Si turned his head to look at her. When he met her clear gaze, he suddenly relaxed a lot. The maliciousness in his eyes seemed to dissipate as he silently led Su Jiu in.

Rong Cheng had expected that Rong Si would not greet him, so his gaze followed the young man and Su Jiu. When he saw the two of them holding hands, his eyes gleamed.

Putting down his wine glass, he leaned back in his chair and asked with a smile, “You two had a good relationship when you were young. I didn’t expect you to be together. How is it? How long have you been in a relationship?”

Rong Si ignored him and stopped opposite him. Then, he pulled out a chair for Su Jiu and waited for her to sit down before sitting down himself.

Rong Cheng observed the young man’s every move and smiled. “You’re quite considerate to your girlfriend. Seeing that you two are so close, I know that you’re in love. You haven’t been together for long, right?”

Only then did Rong Si look up at him and coldly say, “If you only have this nonsense to say today, there wasn’t any need to meet.”
