Chapter 107: 107. Where did it go wrong?
She looked at Lu Moqing, her eyes filled with disappointnt and sadness, as if she had been deeply hurt by him.
But no matter how she acted, Lu Moqing’s expression remained indifferent, completely disregarding her emotions.
“I just didn’t expect that after almost being killed by those people to save you, I would now be suspected by you, Moqing, don’t you think you’re being too unreasonable?”
For the first ti, she questioned Lu Moqing with such a tone of grievance, her eyes glistening with tears, but Lu Moqing remained unmoved, which inevitably disappointed Su Rou.
“If you don’t believe , you can investigate it yourself.”
She originally thought that Lu Moqing would show hesitation or a hint of apology because of her words, but unexpectedly, Lu Moqing just stared at her quietly for a while before suddenly standing up in front of her.
“I will investigate. If the truth is not what you said, you know what I’m capable of.”
Lu Moqing’s voice carried a cold tone, calm and without rhythm, but it struck Su Rou’s heart again and again.
He looked down at her coldly, his gaze like watching an ant that he could crush at any ti, causing Su Rou to shiver all over.
She thought that after saying all this, Lu Moqing would surely believe her, but it turned out… he didn’t fully trust her.
Watching his tall figure leave the café, Su Rou clenched her fist tightly, her nails already digging deep marks in her palm.
She didn’t know if it was because of anger or fear.
“Huh! What a ruthless and heartless man.”
It took her a while to recover, and rembering the person she was supposed to et at this mont, her expression beca serious, and she quickly stood up from her seat, heading towards the private room in the café.
Upon leaving the café, Lu Moqing thought about Qiao Xu’s words, as well as Su Rou’s, his expression gloomy.
He had also considered what Su Rou said, that even if she wanted to fra Qiao Xu, she wouldn’t risk her own life for it because if she died, she wouldn’t gain anything.
That’s also why after she saved him and Tongtong so coincidentally, he didn’t suspect her too much, even though it seed too convenient.
After all, those two tis, Su Rou’s life was snatched back from the Ghost Gate.
The doctors who saved her were all his subordinates, and a small character like Su Rou couldn’t possibly manipulate them to sche against him.
But after so many years, although he didn’t care much for Su Rou, he should have so insight into her character—Su Rou didn’t seem like the type to risk her life for others.
Where did the problem lie?
Was Su Rou really willing to stake her life on climbing up to him?
Even Lu Moqing, who had been imrsed in the deceitful and treacherous world of the marketplace, had never imagined that soone like Su Rou would be so ruthless towards herself to achieve her goals.
It was for this reason that he chose to believe Su Rou’s words without hesitation back then, combined with the thought that the person who hard him was Qiao Xu, he had already lost the rationality he should have had at that ti.
In the blink of an eye, eight years had passed.
During these eight years, he seed to have completely overlooked sothing and missed a lot.
Thinking about this, Lu Moqing’s brows furrowed again, and in the coldness gathering in his eyes, a hint of regret was unintentionally added.
When Qiao Xu got off work, he received a phone call from Xia Yumo. The person on the other end had a hoarse voice, accompanied by a hint of drunkenness.
