Chapter 976: 957: Save Your Love for Your New Girlfriend

Lou Xi pushed Qin Mobai away, “They’re all waiting downstairs, you’re really too much!”

Qin Mobai got up following Lou Xi, “Lu Li wants to be alone with Bai Lu even more.”

So, Qin Mobai was trying to create an opportunity for his brother, how considerate!

Qin Mobai didn’t know if he had successfully created a chance for Lu Li and Bai Lu, but he had indeed left them with an opportunity to be alone.

Downstairs, Bai Lu checked the time, feeling that Qin Mobai and Lou Xi had been upstairs for ten or twenty minutes without coming down. What on earth were they discussing so seriously?

After what happened earlier, Bai Lu was no longer willing to confront Lu Li directly. This man didn’t play by the rules.

She should have been angry, but his little expression made it impossible for her to get angry!

So Bai Lu thought it best to say as little as possible, and avoid any eye contact with Lu Li, otherwise it would really…

“Why haven’t they come down yet?” Bai Lu muttered to herself, after browsing through Weibo, Moments, Space and Zhihu, feeling bored, yet those two still hadn’t come downstairs.

“Maybe they’re busy with something important,” Lu Li replied.

Of course, neither of them thought that what they considered important was different from the important matter Qin Mobai wanted to convey.

Bai Lu turned her head to look at Lu Li, wondering what the important matter was.

Lu Li glanced around; it was just the two of them in the living room, and Sister Yun in the dining room probably couldn’t hear them.

“Xi Siwei… cough cough…” Lu Li lowered his voice, deliberately creating a serious atmosphere, as if what he was about to say was indeed very grave, “Didn’t he escape from prison? And in the afternoon, he took his parents away from here.”

Bai Lu was startled, recalling Lou Xi saying she saw Xi Siwei on the gardener’s car earlier, and Lou Xi even questioned if she had made a mistake.

So it was possibly really Xi Siwei!

It’s terrifying, why can Xi Siwei still come and go freely in the Qin Family?

“Xi Siwei is truly a terrifying person, so from today, you have to report your itinerary to me at all times, in case he takes you away…”

Bai Lu listened to Lu Li’s words and then asked, “And then, if he takes me away?”

What would happen afterward? Would they use her to threaten Lou Xi, and force them to comply?

Bai Lu thought it over and decided it was best not to add to Lou Xi’s burden. Perhaps it was best to keep in touch with Lu Li now, and then distance herself after Xi Siwei was caught?

“I would do whatever it takes to rescue you.”

While Bai Lu was momentarily lost in thought, she heard Lu Li’s words, and it felt like a handful of sugar had been scattered over her heart.

Seeing Bai Lu’s surprised expression, Lu Li continued, “Even though we’re not a couple now, in my heart, you’ve always been the most important person to me. No matter what our relationship is in the future, as long as you’re in trouble, I’ll be by your side immediately.”

If Lu Li’s earlier words were like a sprinkle of sugar on Bai Lu’s heart, then the next words made her feel surrounded by pink bubbles!

Lu Li’s words were like a gentle trap; once fallen into, there was no escape, making it impossible for her to withdraw.

But before Bai Lu chose to jump in, she chose to withdraw in time.

“You’d better save those sentiments for your new girlfriend; if you keep thinking about your ex-girlfriend, your new girlfriend would be unhappy.” Bai Lu rejected calmly, returning their relationship to that of friends or strangers.

Lu Li looked at Bai Lu’s calm demeanor, feeling he really had no way forward.
