Chapter 79 I'm no longer attracted to her
Chapter 79 I'm no longer attracted to her
Mu Siran was stunned, as if struck by lightning. "What did you say? You two had a relationship?"
And not just once! Mu Siran felt like her head was about to explode.
Based on her understanding of Luo Jiuyu, he was such a persistent and devoted person who never got close to women. If he were to have a relationship with a woman, it must mean that he cherished that woman extremely.
Just as Luo Jiuyu said, he has fallen in love with Hua Meimei.
Hua Meimei was uninterested in Mu Siran's shock and sneered, "We have nothing to talk about. I'm busy, big star, please go back. If you want me to divorce Luo Jiuyu, go talk to him. It's always been me who wanted a divorce, he just wouldn't agree."
After saying that, Hua Meimei walked back into the warehouse.
Mu Siran stood there, feeling as if she had been doused with ice water.
I wanted to see how miserable Hua Meimei was, but instead of being heartbroken, she was working hard.
She, however, broke down when she learned that they had a relationship.
Hate! Jealousy!
She would forever regret that snowy night when she rejected Luo Jiuyu's confession.
If she had agreed to wait for him to get a divorce that day, wouldn't Hua Meimei have been out of the picture?
She actually handed Luo Jiuyu over to Hua Meimei herself.
"Si Ran, what are you doing here?"
Luo Jiuyu stepped forward and asked Mu Siran in a low voice.
Mu Siran was taken aback, not expecting him to be there. She couldn't help but worry that he might have overheard her asserting her dominance over Hua Meimei.
"Xiao Jiu, when did you arrive?" she asked with a smile, trying to calm herself down.
"Just arrived," he said calmly. "What did you say to Hua Meimei?"
Seeing that he looked calm and showed no signs of distress, Mu Siran felt relieved.
"I've come to explain what happened last night to her, so she won't misunderstand you." Mu Siran breathed a sigh of relief.
Luo Jiuyu's eyes were dark and unfathomable, but her expression was indifferent. "It doesn't matter."
He came here specifically to explain what happened last night to Hua Meimei.
Now it seems that this is no longer necessary.
He turned and left, not intending to go into the warehouse to see Hua Meimei.
Mu Siran was secretly delighted and followed Luo Jiuyu away from the warehouse, getting into his car along the way.
Cheng Yunze, who was waiting for her on the other side, had no choice but to drive away by himself.
In the car, Mu Siran said, "Xiao Jiu, can you treat me to lunch?"
Luo Jiuyu was annoyed and wanted to refuse, but then she heard Mu Siran say, "I have a flight back tonight to film a movie. You can't even afford to treat me to a farewell meal?"
The woman's tone carried a hint of coquetry and a touch of complaint.
She's a female celebrity who's constantly being watched by paparazzi. If you ride in a car with her, there might be paparazzi following you right now.
The two of them just trended on social media last night, and the paparazzi certainly won't give up on the hot topic of her having a "mystery boyfriend" so quickly.
He bluntly stated, "After the scandal we had last night, if we're photographed having dinner together today, wouldn't that just add fuel to the fire?"
“I don’t mind, do you?” She tilted her head slightly and asked him with a smile.
"You know that having an affair with a married man will negatively impact your career."
“Because it’s you, I don’t care what others say.” She looked at him earnestly, her gaze piercing.
A hint of surprise flashed in Luo Jiuyu's eyes, then she looked away from her face.
It was really strange that her attitude changed so quickly.
This is unlike her usual style; she is always cautious in her words and actions.
After thinking it over carefully, he said solemnly, "Si Ran, those rumors won't bother me much; on the contrary, they'll hurt you more. Let's see each other less in the future."
“Xiao Jiu…” Mu Siran looked at him sadly, “Don’t you want to talk to me anymore?”
"..."
Luo Jiuyu glanced at the rearview mirror and saw a black Volkswagen that had been following them out from near the warehouse for a long time.
"Gao Peng, can you shake off that black car behind us?"
Gao Peng noticed the car he mentioned and said, "I'll try my best."
"Safety first. It's okay if we can't shake them off."
"Okay, Mr. Luo."
"Are they paparazzi?" Mu Siran frowned.
Luo Jiuyu said calmly, "Didn't you say you didn't care about your reputation? Why are you so nervous now?"
"I..." Mu Siran was speechless.
Luo Jiuyu added, "Aren't you afraid of fans causing trouble? Aren't you afraid of losing resources? Aren't you afraid of competitors taking the opportunity to smear you?"
Mu Siran had already weighed these costs.
It's not that I'm not afraid.
She was just afraid that if she didn't get him, she would sacrifice everything and end up with nothing.
"You said on New Year's Eve that if I was willing to wait for you to get a divorce, you would give me the rest of your life." Mu Siran stared expectantly into his eyes. "Now I say I do..."
"Mu Siran, some things you say have an expiration date." Luo Jiuyu's eyes gradually became serious.
“What…” Mu Siran’s heart suddenly went blank.
Gao Peng was busy driving fast, weaving around on the road, dodging left and right.
The already cold atmosphere inside the car became quite discordant due to the somewhat violent bumps.
"Even if you reheat leftover rice, it won't smell as good as when it's fresh out of the pan," he said.
"Luo Jiuyu?" Mu Siran looked at him in disbelief. "I can feel that you have always liked me. You have liked me for so many years, and you gave up so easily just because I rejected you once?"
"You like me?" Luo Jiuyu asked in return.
"Yes, I like you. I've liked you for many years, and the time I've spent with you is no less than yours!" Mu Siran said in a reproachful tone.
Gao Peng quickly turned the steering wheel, swerving the car onto another road. The car suddenly swayed violently, and Mu Siran, losing her balance, fell onto Luo Jiuyu.
Luo Jiuyu smelled the jasmine scent on her, a familiar scent that did not evoke any familiar feelings.
He no longer felt his heart flutter when he was near her. His heartbeat was calm and even, as before.
"President Luo, I've shaken them off!" Gao Peng said excitedly.
Luo Jiuyu hummed in agreement, then looked down at Mu Siran's head. "Are you planning to stay on top of me forever?"
Mu Siran sensed the distance in his tone and reluctantly sat up straight.
"Xiao Jiu, you've changed." Tears welled up in Mu Siran's eyes. "Why don't you like me anymore?"
She looked pitiful, heartbroken and aggrieved.
Luo Jiuyu didn't want to hurt her either, so his expression softened and he said gently, "Over the years, Luo En has been deeply in love with you. How can you bear to betray him? If we missed each other, we missed each other. I've already moved on a long way. You don't need to stay in the same place and keep clinging to that illusory unrequited love from your youth."
She knew he was rational, but she never imagined he could be so terrifyingly rational.
"If one day you get tired of Hua Meimei, will you say the same thing to her?" She wiped away her tears and regained her usual proud expression.
Playing the victim doesn't work on him, so stop trying to be pitiful.
He did not answer her immediately.
After a long silence, she assumed he wouldn't answer the question.
Suddenly, I heard his voice, neither too loud nor too soft.
"If she doesn't abandon me in this life, I will never abandon her."
