Su Qianxun knew that Lan Yingying said all those things on purpose. She shoved Lan Yingying away coldly and sneered. “Are you satisfied now?”
“Qianxun, what are you talking about?” Lan Yingying pretended to be clueless about what she had just said and put on an innocent and upset expression.
If a nasty word or two could wreck Su Qianxun, then people like Su Manni and Su Ran would not have needed to plot against her so many times. She would have been dead a long time ago.
Su Qianxun suddenly flashed a slight smile. Her pure and natural beauty astounded the people who had mocked her earlier on
:an Yingying was startled as well. Su Qianxun leaned forward and whispered into her ears. Lan Yingying’s face immediately went pale.
After Su Qianxun finished, she patted Lan Yingying on her shoulder, turned and strode towards the exit. Meanwhile, two servers entered the hall with a dining cart to refill the pastry stand on the banquet table. Infuriated, Lan Yingying gave her friends a signal, and the two young women knocked into Su Qianxun on purpose.
Su Qianxun lost her balance and was about to collide with the dining cart. A large hand held her waist just in time. Su Qianxun spun and got back on her feet. She stood before her rescuer.
The man locked her large hands around her slim waist. The young woman raised her head and saw that a pair of eyes were looking at her with a teasing gaze. She furrowed her eyebrows. ‘What the heck? It’s that hooligan again!’
“Little lady, why are you always in some kind of trouble every time I see you?” Li Junye was late to the party due to some emergency on his way here.
“Let go of me!” Su Qianxu shoved him, but Li Junye refused to release her.
Everyone around them was astonished to see the second son of Li family put his arms around this scruffy young woman without the intention to let go.
From a distance, Long Sijue saw that Li Junye was holding Su Qianxun. He suddenly tightened his grip on the fragile wine glass in his hand and nearly crushed it into pieces!
Lan Qingcheng sensed that the man beside her had tensed up and hated Su Qianxun even more. She must quickly think of a way to get rid of this young woman for good!
In a moment of desperation, Su Qianxun kicked Li Junye in the calf with all her might. The sharp pain forced him to loosen his grip. Su Qianxun turned and ran out of the banquet hall.
Li Junye immediately chased after her.
Su Qianxun ran at lightning speed. She did not want to stay in this place any longer. Li Junye was still bearing injuries. Therefore, by the time he caught up with her, the young woman had already run out of the hotel.
“Why are you running away?” Eventually, Li Junye grabbed her by the hand.
“Let go of me!” Su Qianxun shrugged his hand off and stepped back vigilantly. She seriously did not want anything to do with this man.
“Hey, little lady, you’re so heartless. I saved your life the second time we met. Shouldn’t you thank me for that?” Li Junye raised an eyebrow as he gazed at the snappy young woman who was acting like a provoked hedgehog.
“I saved you the first time we met. Why didn’t you thank me for that?”
“I do want to thank you. Tell me, how do you want me to thank you? By spending the rest of my life with you?”
Su Qianxun was at a loss for words.
“I’d saved your life and you’d saved mine. So we’re even.”
Su Qianxun turned and walked away. She did not want to talk to him anymore. She did not want to be affiliated with someone who was in so much trouble that he nearly died while being hunted down by assassins in the middle of the night.
“No way. We met thrice within half a month alone. It must be fate that had brought us together. We’ve got to get to know each other better!” Li Junye dragged her towards his car.
“Let me go. I don’t know you. If you don’t let me go, I will scream “pervert”!”
“I bet you haven’t had dinner, had you. You’ve got to eat something no matter what, right?”
Li Junye was about to shove the young woman into the car. Suddenly, he sensed an impending danger behind him.
“Watch out!”
Li Junye pushed Su Qianxun away. He then turned and threw a punch. His fist collided with Ye Gu’s. The impact made Ye Gu stumble backwards while Li Junye fell back and rammed into the car behind him…
