Chapter 493: Have Something To Say To You. 




A contract?


Is the relationship between them just a contract?


It seems so


Xiao Luo mocked himself. It seemed that he unknowingly placed himself as Su Li's husband, completely forgetting that this woman was only considered him as a spare tire. Once she met the right man, she would immediately terminate their marriage relationship.


"I see."


He responded indifferently and walked straight in the direction of the kitchen.


Su Li was frustrated. She wanted this man to show at least a bit of an emotional reaction, even if he was angry, it would give her some comfort. But his reaction just now, without sorrow nor joy, only made her feel that he didn't care about their marriage at all.


With a sigh, she asked, "What are you doing here?"


"She is hungry, I'll make something for her to eat." Xiao Luo began to busy himself in the kitchen.


Su Li couldn't mention how uncomfortable she was in her heart. She said expressionlessly, "I'm hungry too. Please make one for me, thank you!"


After she was done saying that, she buried her head and continued reading. 


Xiao Luo shook his head helplessly. It was not very troublesome to make one more, plus he was borrowing her kitchen and ingredients so it was only logical to make an extra one for her.


There were plenty of ingredients such as vegetables and meat in the refrigerator thanks to Aunt Li.


Xiao Luo made steak and poached eggs for Gu Qianxue, and oatmeal with fresh fruits for Su Li, which was specially tailored for these two women. After all, the former liked to eat meat, while the latter paid more attention to maintaining her own body. Moreover, the mixture of fruits for the latter was the same quantity commonly prepared by Aunt Li. 


"Why is mine kiwi and banana...?" Su Li put down her book and looked at the food. 


"Isn't this your favorite?"


Xiao Luo's eyebrows raised. "Don't tell me you want this steak? I don't remember you being a meat eater."


'He actually knows what I like to eat!'


Su Li was touched but she couldn’t show this kind of emotion easily. Instead, she said with a little bitterness, "Who says I love this? What I love is green vegetables and taro paste."


"I'm sorry, it seems that I can only give you this for now."


Xiao Luo replied and left. He didn't want Gu Qianxue to wait too long.


Su Li originally felt very touched, but Xiao Luo's actions just now made her so angry that she couldn’t say a word.  


"Oh, a fruit bowl? Who made it, Xiao Luo?" At this time, Shen Qingyan walked down the stairs in Su Li’s pajamas, she had just gotten out of the shower. When she saw what was on the table, her eyes brightened.


"Why does it have to be him? I could've done it myself, no?" Su Li rebuked. 


Shen Qingyan laughed: "Li, you are an idiot when it comes to cooking. Are you sure you are not telling a joke?"


Su Li didn't want to talk to her anymore. She bit her lips and continued to read the book.


"Will you eat it or not? If you don't eat it, can I?" Shen Qingyan asked greedily.


"Go ahead, I don't want it." Su Li said. 


Shen Qingyan wouldn’t be polite to her either, she picked up the spoon and took a bite.  "Wow, it's GOOD. That guy Xiao Luo really knows how to cook. This is better than what your nanny makes. It seems that I made him work in the wrong department. He should go to the canteen of the company instead of sales."


"If you make my man be your cook, I'll beat you!"


Su Li grabbed a pillow on the sofa and threw it at her.


……


……


Xiao Luo remembered that Gu Qianxue liked to eat meat, but he forgot that her appetite was bigger than that of ordinary girls.


So after the steak, he went to Su Li's apartment again; mutton, pork, chicken... Su Li and Shen Qingyan were stunned, and he also felt very embarrassed. He had to come up with an exucse and said that he was hungry.


"Are you full?"


Looking at the empty plates that had been piled up, Xiao Luo asked Gu Qianxue.


"Hmm."


Gu Qianxue wiped her greasy mouth with a paper towel like a fair maiden.


Xiao Luo breathed a sigh of relief and gently coughed.  "You said that you're living well in Jiang City, so why did you suddenly come to Xia Hai? People in the society are sinister. At least your sister can take care of you in Jiang City if you're there. It is not a very smart choice for you to come to Xia Hai. "


"I have the ability to protect myself."


Gu Qianxue said seriously, "And you can protect me."


"I'm just a killer with blood on my hands." Xiao Luo gave a quick laugh.


Gu Qianxue shook her head vehemently.  "You are not."


"Really?"


Xiao Luo was relieved. It seemed that what he did in Jiang City remained a secret. Otherwise, if it was made public, people would've made a crusade against him, a murderous devil.


But he didn’t really care about other people's opinions as long as his conscience was clear.


After a moment of silence, he asked, "What did you come to see me for?"


"I..."


Gu Qianxue couldn't answer this question immediately. She had no reason to look for Xiao Luo. She just wanted to see him...


Xiao Luo immediately saw through her thoughts. This girl really couldn’t hide anything, all her emotions were written on her face. Therefore, it was very easy to know what was on her mind. Totally unlike Su Li, whom he couldn’t see through at all.


"If the weather is fine tomorrow, I will take you to visit various scenic spots in Xia Hai."


"Okay." Gu Qianxue chuckled.


"By the way, did you ask the General Administration for a few days off?" Xiao Luo asked. 


Gu Qianxue shook her head. "No, I didn't."


"You didn't ask for a leave? You just left?" Xiao Luo was speechless.


"Hmm." Gu Qianxue nodded like a girl who had done something wrong.


Xiao Luo gave his phone to her. "You should call your sister now and tell her that you are in Xia Hai, otherwise she will turn Jiang City upside down."


Of course, he was not actually concerned about whether Gu Qianlin would do that, but instead he was afraid that Gu Qianxue would be marked as a victim of kidnapping, and then he would be seen as the criminal who abducted this ignorant girl.


"All right."


Gu Qianxue said after she gave it some thoughts. She took the phone, and then dialed Gu Qianlin's phone number.


Xiao Luo stayed silent as he listened to Gu Qianlin's hysterical talking. She was probably reprimanding Gu Qianxue for leaving without saying a word.


"Xiao Luo, my sister has something to say to you." After being nagged at by Gu Qianlin, Gu Qianxue silently handed the phone back to Xiao Luo.


Xiao Luo was a bit afraid of Gu Qianlin.  However, he wouldn’t avoid her.


"Officer Gu, what's wrong?"


"Xiao Luo, what did you give my sister* (love potion) that made her so dead set on you. Don't you dare take the opportunity to bully her and take advantage of her.  Otherwise,I will make you pay even if the police found my ways unacceptable." Gu Qianlin warned. She loved her sister very much, if her sister was tainted by this murderous maniac Xiao Luo, she wouldn't be able to accept it.  She would go psychotic.
