At the end of this competition, Luo Xiaoxiâs achievement was still quite great, ranking first steadily.
Candy was quite satisfied with her performance. After the media interview, she patted Luo Xiaoxi on the shoulder and said, âTonight, you can go anywhere you want to celebrate!â
âForget it,â Luo Xiaoxi learned lessons from last time, and said, âsome things are enough to go through once. Send me home. We can celebrate until I win the championship.â
Candy looked around. âBy the way... Where is Su Yicheng? He just showed up.â
Luo Xiaoxi clenched her cell phone and said proudly, âWho cares about him!â
In fact, she also wanted to know where Su Yicheng went, but she refused to call him.
She was rejected by him indifferently once last week. It was enough!
How could Candy not know that Luo Xiaoxi affected indifference? But it was a virtue not to speak out even if she saw it through. She opened the door and pushed Luo Xiaoxi to sit on, âThen Iâll send you back to your apartment.â
When the black business car reached a side road and was about to turn, a car suddenly rushed out and blocked their way.
âSqueakââ
âSqueakââ
Two screeching braking sounds rang almost at the same time, and Candy and Luo Xiaoxi almost fell because of inertia.
Candy slapped on the steering wheel. âDamn it! Can you drive? Can Rolls-Royce run so amuck?â
She rolled up her sleeves and was about to get out of the car to argue. Suddenly, the door of Rolls-Royceâs driverâs seat opened. She uttered an âehâ and silently opened the central locking.
Luo Xiaoxi in the back seat couldnât see the situation clearly, and she just wanted to make a fuss. âCandy, go down and get him! Daring to stand in your way, heâs bored of this life.â
Candy just coughed.
Luo Xiaoxi still did not know what the situation was. Suddenly, the door was pulled open from the outside, and the cold wind whistled in.
Thinking that they met highwaymen, she subconsciously shrank into the car but was caught by a hand that came through the door.
The familiar touch made Luo Xiaoxi instantly reflect who he was.
âSu Yicheng!â She looked at him incredibly. âWhat are you doing?â
âGet off!â
Finishing saying, Su Yicheng pulled Luo Xiaoxi out without any explanation.
Seeing that she was about to be dragged down, Luo Xiaoxi asked Candy for help. âCandy!â
Candy shrugged. After watching Luo Xiaoxi go down, she locked the door and waved to her. âGoodbye.â And then she started the car and drove it away.
Luo Xiaoxi knew that she was a bad friend. After standing firm, she depressingly looked at Su Yicheng and said, âWhat on earth do you want to do?â
During this period, Su Yicheng was somewhat strange, sometimes cold and sometimes hot to her, like an abnormal air conditioner that sometimes heated and sometimes cooled. With the frequent exchange between ice and fire, everyone would be sick, okay?
âCome back with me!â
Su Yicheng pulled open the door of the passenger seat and stuffed Luo Xiaoxi into it. He started the car and drove to the place where he lived.
Luo Xiaoxi took a while to react, deliberately took a deep breath, and tightly covered her chest with both hands, âSu Yicheng, what are you going to do to me?â
But Su Yicheng did not look at her, just said coldly, âFasten your seat belt.â
âEw,â Luo Xiaoxi said, âBoring.â
But she didnât ask Su Yicheng to stop or take her back to her apartment.
Taking advantage of Su Yichengâs initiative to come to her, she just had the chance to ask him what on earth he was doing during this period of time.
Su Yicheng drove the car back to the underground garage of his apartment and directly went upstairs from the first floor underground.
His apartment was spacious but also cold. Luo Xiaoxi looked around and found that it was the same as before without a little feeling of home.
Luo Xiaoxi still wore the clothes of the show. Feeling a little cold, she pulled Su Yichengâs clothes and said, âGive me your coat.â
Su Yicheng had already endured a whole night, and suddenly turned to stare at Luo Xiaoxi as if to see through her with his eyes.
Luo Xiaoxi suddenly felt colder, but she remembered that âpeople had to try his best, even if he was doomed to failureâ.
She chested out and said, âWhat are you looking at? Havenât you ever seen such a beautiful woman with such a good figure?â
Su Yicheng fiercely pressed Luo Xiaoxi against the wall.
Luo Xiaoxi gazed at him. âLet me go! Weâre nothing. How could you do this to me?!â
They were nothing...?
Su Yicheng was stunned as if he were hit by something. The anger in his eyes disappeared. He looked at Luo Xiaoxi and he looked panicky. âXiaoxi...â
He touched Luo Xiaoxiâs cheek.
âPahâ, Luo Xiaoxi ruthlessly shook off Su Yichengâs hand. âDonât call me Xiaoxi! You want me to go and find someone else before, and now you take me back to your house. What on earth are you going to do? Can you make up your mind? If you canât, then donât mess with me. Itâs none of your business if I end up with Fang Zheng or Qin Wei!â
Su Yichengâs facial expression immediately became frightening. âI told you to stay away from Fang Zheng!â
Luo Xiaoxi scornfully smiled and said, âThe question is, why I should listen to you? Who are you to me?â
Su Jiananâs words suddenly rang in Su Yichengâs mind. âXiaoxi only listens to people close to her, and they are someone who has a very clear relationship with her, such as her good friends, relatives and so on.â
If he wanted Luo Xiaoxi to listen to him, did he really have to say that sentence first?
âBe my girlfriend.â Su Yicheng stared at Luo Xiaoxi, saying the sentence that Luo Xiaoxi had fantasized about countless times without warning.
Luo Xiaoxi was stunned.
Without knowing why, she didnât feel any ecstasy at all. Just like when Su Yicheng said to her, âWeâre not impossibleâ, she just thought that Su Yicheng was not right.
Without a confession, he wanted to change their relationship directly. What made Su Yicheng think she would say yes?
âYouâve said that to lots of women, havenât you?â Luo Xiaoxi said with a smile, âWant to make me one of your exes?â
âDo you still mind that I played cold and hot with you some time ago?â
Su Yicheng got to the point. Luo Xiaoxi said coldly, âHum, so what? Who can tolerate you being sometimes cold and sometimes hot?â
âDo you really have no idea?â Su Yicheng wished to stick a word âstupidâ on Luo Xiaoxiâs forehead.
âIâm not a mind reader. How can I guess?â
âThe revelation of your relationship with Jianan has already aroused controversy,â Su Yicheng said, âif someone exposes that weâre also connected, do you think you will be inundated with rumors and speculation or not?â
Luo Xiaoxi was startled for a moment. It took a while for her to understand what Su Yicheng meant.
It turned out that Su Yicheng was afraid that she would entangle in negative gossip, so he did not have any contact with her in public.
No wonder he refused to send her to the company before the competition started. She asked why, but he just scolded her for being stupid.
No wonder he did not meet her at the backstage when he showed up in the first airing of the competition. Now thinking about it, if Su Yicheng went backstage to see her, she must have been pushed out of the circle of other contestants, right? Moreover, Li Yingyuan, who did things to her shoes, might even do something worse to her.
No wonder he didnât celebrate with her. No wonder just now at the television station, he looked around with a look in fear of being spotted.
He took the key to her house, probably just wanted to see her when she came back after the competition.
Luo Xiaoxiâs voice lowered. âWhy didnât you tell me at first?â
âAt first, you didnât know the darkness and rules of the circle, so you wouldnât be afraid,â Su Yicheng said.
Luo Xiaoxi was speechless.
Indeed, if Su Yicheng told her at first, she would only laugh at Su Yichengâs overcautious and indecisiveness. On impulse, she might even take the initiative to speak out her relationship with Su Yicheng.
However, she was criticized for having the background just because she got along with Su Jianan. After that, she finally learned that gossip was fearful.
Cheng An Group was the chief sponsor of Top Model. If it came out that she had a close relationship with Su Yicheng, not only her qualifications, but also her current achievements would be questioned.
Even if she could win the championship under questioning, it would be said that her championship was a result of pulling strings. At that time, she would not get fans, but anti-fans.
It was not good for her career development when she was under such questions and public reviews at her debut.
Su Yicheng did take consideration for her, but she only thought that he didnât like her so much, thought that he was an abnormal air conditioner which was sometimes cold and sometimes hot.
