A Shy, White-haired Girl Has No Interest In Being Someone's Love Target! Chapter 230 : A Future Without You

You were pointing a gun at just two days ago. You forgot already? Hehe.

Su Yun's indignation couldn't be expressed. She just secretly glanced at Xia Rou beside her, who had a dazed expression.

This girl was like a little puppy, constantly staring at her, blinking her eyes.

"Xia Rou, you said your brother is at work, right?" Su Yun didn't directly talk to the man on the phone. Instead, she turned to ask Xia Rou.

Xia Rou blinked, and her eyes beca more determined: "Yes, brother promised he'd go back to work."

"Xiaoyun, just tell him what you need. He must be very busy right now."

The girl's words were full of trust and concern for her brother.

"Maybe he... cough, right?"

"Your brother might really be quite busy."

Su Yun said this with a raised eyebrow and a mischievous expression on her fair face.

Isn't that right, Xia Rou's brother?

"Ah, maybe what?" Su Yun's words left Xia Rou confused. The girl tilted her head questioningly, her long hair falling onto the table.

"..."

"I know who you are now. Put my sister back on." The cold voice of a man ca from the phone. Though there was still an invisible aura of pressure, it was clearly much weaker than before.

Su Yun smiled and handed the phone to Xia Rou.

"Brother, you're at work right now, aren't you?" Xia Rou frowned, pressing her ear tightly to the phone.

"Of course. Xiaoru, would I break a promise to you?"

"Oh right! I learned a few more dishes yesterday. Do you want to make them for you tomorrow?"

"And and, those clothes you picked out for last ti—I've been wearing them recently and they're quite comfortable. How about we go shopping together next week when you don't have exams?"

Once the phone reached Xia Rou's hand, Xia Hongxuan's voice radiated youthful energy, as if they were both still studying on campus, a pair of siblings only worried about grades.

"Brother, focus on work. I'm fine. You don't need to co see ."

Su Yun, waiting to the side, noticed that the obedient girl had actually frowned, her unhappy expression combined with those resolute words looking exactly like soone rejecting a confession during school days.

Funny.

Not long after, the phone with the pink Hello Kitty case was back in Su Yun's hands.

"Xiaoyun, please return the business card to my brother later. He's always been careless. This week while cooking, he even got his fingers scalded by hot oil. I don't know why he added water and oil at the sa ti."

"Oh?"

Xia Rou's voice sounded like she was complaining, but Su Yun could see the worry written all over the girl's face.

Really enviable.

But... did she just hear that? The chairman got scalded while cooking and yelped? Tsk tsk tsk.

After finishing briefly, Su Yun took the phone to the small balcony and casually pulled the glass door closed.

Under the guise of eting to return the business card, it was actually going to be a confrontation.

"..."

But the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds.

"Next ti be careful when cooking, Chairman." Su Yun said with a playful smile, offering friendly advice.

"..."

The atmosphere beca even quieter.

"Alright, alright, I'm not joking anymore. I have sothing to discuss with you."

"Mm, go ahead."

Now Su Yun could clearly feel that Xia Hongxuan's attitude toward her had improved significantly.

She then told Xia Hongxuan about the incidents she had observed over the past two days at school or near the west gate of the academy.

"Hey, accept my WeChat friend request. I'll send you the footage. It has most of their faces in it."

"Why should I believe all of this is real?"

Su Yun told Xia Hongxuan that these shop-smashing 'police officers' were the bad people at school, but the other seed skeptical.

"There's a person with a knife scar on his face. When I was following them that day, I saw soone who looked exactly like him. There's no way I could be mistaken."

"And then..."

Su Yun, whom soone thought was a 'silly girl,' looked somber. On this matter, she was incredibly serious.

"I'm just like you. I have soone I want to protect."

"..."

"I understand."

The information exchange was completed in about five minutes. Su Yun even told him about how the student council president (Shi Lezhi) had drugged a girl yesterday.

And Xia Hongxuan hadn't been idle these past two days either. He had previously investigated a criminal organization's point. Recently, through investigation, he learned that the new criminal organization's base was outside the school—along a street near the school. But the exact location was unknown.

The investigation was unclear because those people had been staying inside the school recently, hiding well. But this also ant the other side wouldn't act imdiately. After all, with so many surveillance caras in school, wouldn't acting be seeking death?

Of course, he also worried they might try an extre one-for-one exchange, so Xia Hongxuan was trying to find the other's hidden positions within the school.

After the conversation ended and returning to the living room, Su Yun returned the phone to Xia Rou, and they continued reviewing for the exam normally.

Qin Yuanyuan kept her head down, not saying a word to Xia Rou the entire afternoon, and Xia Rou ignored her too.

Hng...

That Su Xiaoyun, she'd definitely find a way to make her cry later!

She even stole her Sister Rou away...

For a mont, Qin Yuanyuan felt like the sky was falling. She couldn't hold on and wanted to cry, but rembering what Sister Rou had recently taught her about being strong and not crying easily, she forcibly held back her tears.

...

As the sky darkened, the sky looked like it was burning, appearing brilliant yellow.

Xia Rou decided not to stay for dinner. She felt that would be playing the third wheel.

But on the car ride ho, she noticed Yuanyuan was silent, her head drooping with a gloomy expression.

For now, because soone else was there, she didn't interfere.

After the maid dropped them off at ho, Xia Rou held Qin Yuanyuan's hand—which was deliberately pulling back, feeling heavy—and sat on the pink bed.

Xia Rou looked up at Qin Yuanyuan, who refused to sit with her: "Yuanyuan, do you feel very wronged?"

"..." Qin Yuanyuan lowered her head and said nothing.

She looked seriously at Qin Yuanyuan, her eyes full of concern: "Today I wanted to teach you to be polite to elders and others."

But as she spoke, Xia Rou's eyes grew warm.

"But I just don't want Sister Rou to be stolen away by soone else!"

"I don't care about elders or other people! I, I just want Sister Rou to stay with !"

Qin Yuanyuan, as if struck at her weak point, pounced on Xia Rou like a madwoman.

She didn't want to see Sister Rou having intimate conversations with others. She didn't want Sister Rou not to talk to her. And she absolutely didn't want to see Sister Rou find a boyfriend! If that happened, Sister Rou would beco soone else's.

Xia Rou was knocked down, Qin Yuanyuan on top of her, actively interlocking their fingers. The distance between their faces shortened to just over ten centiters in an instant.

Almost kissed...

"Don't be silly, Yuanyuan. I'm right here with you. How could I be stolen away?"

"Co on, don't cry..."

Xia Rou tilted her head up. Seeing Qin Yuanyuan's tearful eyes, her heart imdiately softened.

Was she really too hasty...

She gently held Yuanyuan's slender waist, letting the other's soft body completely rest on hers.

"Hng..."

"Yuanyuan, I'm sorry. Ignoring you this afternoon was my fault. I wanted you to rember early what it feels like to be treated coldly."

"After all, not everyone in society will be nice to you. If you keep acting like a spoiled young lady like now, when you enter society, people will definitely look at you with malice. I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it emotionally."

"Being calm and composed, having dignified bearing—these are things a young lady like you must possess."

"I'm not so young lady, and I don't want to enter society!"

"Besides, as long as Sister Rou is with , I'll be in a good mood every day!"

Qin Yuanyuan didn't really listen to Xia Rou's education. Instead, like a child, she acted willfully and spoiled, her head buried firmly in Xia Rou's chest.

"Stop burrowing in, Yuanyuan. It tickles, haha..." Xia Rou was forced to laugh by Qin Yuanyuan's behavior.

Yes, these days with Yuanyuan were the happiest tis of her life. Every mont, she had a smile on her face. So with such a life, what difficulties in society could trouble them?

Yes, Yuanyuan has with her...

Xia Rou continued smiling, but the warmth in her eyes caused a layer of mist to form in her eye sockets.

Soon, however, her expression changed, becoming cold and indifferent: "Do you know what you just said? You're not taking responsibility for yourself at all."

"Yuanyuan, get up!"

"Eh, hng..." Qin Yuanyuan had never seen Sister Rou yell at her so loudly before. She imdiately cried again.

This pitiful appearance made Xia Rou's heart ache. She could only turn her gaze away.

"Stop crying! Today you must learn etiquette. Otherwise, you're not allowed to eat!"

"Sister Rou is so scary, wah wah."

Under Xia Rou's guidance, Qin Yuanyuan started crying and calling out "Sister Xiaoyun."

I must teach Yuanyuan...

She really couldn't bear to see Yuanyuan being hurt by others in the future.

Yuanyuan, you're not a willful, unreasonable young lady. I know. You're just temporarily used to that kind of indulgence.

You're the cutest girl I've ever seen, and also...

The person I like the most.
