Huo Zhan was clearly doubtful of her words.
Let’s have a meal together someday then. I’ve just got to see if he’s really taking you as a queen.
Shi Guang did not want to continue with that topic as she harrumphed coldly.
Alright, enough about me! What about you? How did you meet her? How long have you guys been together? To think that you would have kept it as such a tight secret and you guys are even getting married now! I’m really curious about this girl. So, was she the one who subdued you, or were you the one who managed to trick her into marrying you?
Little Shi Guang, can’t we be truly in love? What’s that about trickery and subduing?
Huo Zhan poked her head once more.
Shi Guang was peeved.
Don’t get touchy now!
But Huo Zhan refused to back down and reached out once more. Immediately, Shi Guang slapped his hand as both of them started playing around, hitting at one another in a way that might even seem flirty to outsiders.
What are you guys doing?
A familiar voice rang out as though it had gusted down from an icy mountain peak, and Shi Guang’s body stiffened. When she saw that she was still grabbing hold onto Huo Zhan’s arm, she let go in a fluster and stood up to face the owner of the voice.
Lu Yanchen!
But, after she let his arm go, she was suddenly thinking. It wasn’t as though she was doing anything shameful! Why did she have to let go in such a guilty manner?
She and Huo Zhan were merely friends that were meeting for a chat. The reason why she was so nervous wasn’t because he was petty, but because she was afraid that he might misunderstand.
But now, that seemed to have had the opposite effect.
We were just chatting… You’re back!
Shi Guang walked beside Lu Yanchen.
Huo Zhan smiled out politely to Lu Yanchen as well as a greeting.
Lu Yanchen said nothing and merely looked at Shi Guang such that she was truly afraid he might raise his finger at her nose and accuse her of seducing other men.
Looking at the state Shi Guang was in, Huo Zhan could guess what was going on, and said after contemplating,
I’m getting married soon. I was thinking that we should have a meal together in a couple of days. Would you be free, Mr Lu?
Lu Yanchen raised his brow before replying calmly,
Sure!
When Shi Guang heard that, she finally heaved a sigh of relief. In her mind, she presumed that Lu Yanchen should finally believe that she had nothing to do with Huo Zhan, since the other was getting married. So, he should not be getting angry at her.
However, he did not speak at all on the entire way back.
Returning home, Lu Yanchen was still cold and aloof, with no signs of wanting to talk to her.
Erm, do you have any news of my sister?
Shi Guang looked at him nervously. For something that important, she garnered that Lu Yanchen should not ignore her.
He placed down his phone and indeed replied,
No.
Shi Guang’s entire face nearly crumbled.
What should I do? Right now, is my sister…
As though he knew what she was worrying and thinking about, he assured her,
No. Even though we haven’t found your sister yet, I’m certain that her life is not in danger.
Really?
Yes.
You’ll help me find my sister, right?
Shi Guang moved and sat beside Lu Yanchen, hugging his arm and rubbing her head at it.
Lu Yanchen did not reply, merely looking down at her.
…
His silence caused Shi Guang to blink her eyes before smiling at him bashfully. However, he retracted his arm coldly.
Don’t worry! Even without you using your beauty trap, I would find your sister.
Shi Guang pursed her lips.
Who’s using a beauty trap?
Lu Yanchen looked at her before judging.
Indeed, there’s no beauty.
