Just then, the phone was connected, and Ye Han’s slightly apologetic voice ca through: "I’m sorry, Jiuyi, sothing ca up unexpectedly, and I didn’t have ti to tell you before I left. You don’t mind, do you?"
Hearing Ye Han’s voice, Su Jiuyi instinctively stood up, wanting to snatch the phone back from Shi Aoju.
Shi Aoju glanced at her, raising the phone high. Due to the cramped space inside the car, Su Jiuyi couldn’t quite reach it, even as she stretched out her hand, missing by a long shot.
"Are you still listening?"
Having not heard Su Jiuyi’s response for a while, Ye Han spoke again from the other end.
"I..."
"Listening" - the two words were forced back by a stern look from Shi Aoju. Raising his sword eyebrows, his expression was cold, as if warning her, "Try saying sothing."
Su Jiuyi was effectively threatened, obediently keeping her mouth shut. She originally thought Shi Aoju would just hang up, as he hadn’t had a good impression of Ye Han before, always referring to Ye Han as ’your little lover’ or ’that pretty boy.’
Unexpectedly, he calmly placed the phone to his ear, saying indifferently: "She’s gone to the restroom; whatever you have to say, you can say to ."
His attitude was clear, declaring his ownership, informing the other party that Su Jiuyi was already his person.
From the other end, Ye Han’s cheerful voice ca quickly: "Then I’ll call her back later."
After hanging up, Shi Aoju returned the phone to Su Jiuyi, his expression unchanged, still a picture of indifference.
Elegantly turning the steering wheel, he drove the car to the driveway of the front yard and parked. Su Jiuyi, fearing he might assist her with the seatbelt again, got out of the car ahead of him.
"Young Master Jue, I’ll go back to the room to change clothes first."
Su Jiuyi found an excuse to leave, but Shi Aoju stood in front of her with his arms crossed, blocking her path before she could walk away.
He looked down at her, speaking softly: "Don’t you have sothing to do?"
Su Jiuyi didn’t understand his aning, asking: "Is there sothing else to do?"
"You tell ." He raised an eyebrow, his voice cold: "Whenever a boyfriend and girlfriend part ways, isn’t there always sothing to do?"
With his words, Su Jiuyi instantly imagined a scene: she tip-toes up to him, kisses him actively, saying: "Jue, see you later."
Such a scenario was too bizarre; though they were technically starting a relationship now, their relationship hadn’t reached that level yet.
"Um..." Su Jiuyi pondered for a while, then asked, "Should I kiss you?"
"Idiot." Shi Aoju reached out, ruffling her hair, speaking softly: "Just wanted you to say goodbye, nothing more."
What?!
Just say goodbye?
Yet he spoke so ambiguously, making her overthink, concocting such an intense scene in her mind.
Su Jiuyi’s face flushed. To avoid Shi Aoju noticing her embarrassnt, she quickly said, "Goodbye," then turned and ran.
"Wrong way."
After running four or five ters, Su Jiuyi heard Shi Aoju’s reminder.
Only then did she realize she was heading towards the gate, while the main building of the mansion was in the opposite direction. aning, she had taken the wrong path...
Su Jiuyi’s face turned a bright red; indeed, won in love were fools.
