"There's a charcoal stove burning in the house, so it's not cold!" Xiao Lan turned around and went back into the house, and Su Ze followed silently.
The two sat facing each other on the couch, which was littered with soft pillows thrown by Xiao Lan and Fang Qingqing. Xiao Lan put them away one by one, and Su Ze just watched quietly.
"Does it hurt?" Su Ze pointed at the wound on Xiao Lan's neck.
"This?" Xiao Lan reached out to touch it, but was grabbed by Su Ze.
"Don't keep touching it, it won't be good..."
"Oh..." Xiao Lan wanted to pull her hand back, but she felt the strength in her hand that didn't want to let go. She looked up at him, her eyes full of longing.
"What is Lord Su doing?"
There was a low table on the couch between the two of them, but Su Ze's hand reached out and grabbed Xiao Lan's hand in mid-air. Xiao Lan leaned forward, and the coat she was wearing fell on her arms. Her neck was as smooth and white as the moon at night.
Su Ze couldn't take his eyes off it. He wanted to maintain his gentlemanly demeanor, but now he felt like a lecher.
Xiao Lan's tone was very frivolous. To Su Ze, this was not a question about what he should do, but a hope that he could do something.
The two looked at each other in silence, and it was Su Ze who loosened his hand first. Xiao Lan curled her lips. This was just a small scene. The love and hatred between her and her ex-husband was enough for her to suppress the restlessness in her heart. But Su Ze felt that if this continued, he was afraid...
Xiao Lan watched as Su Ze straightened his gown and stopped looking at her, but his gaze was still erratic. She felt that her ex-husband had never been this shy and uneasy when they first went to the hotel together.
"Master Su, do you have something to say?"
"Well, I've begged my parents on my knees to stop interfering in my marriage, and they agreed to give me gifts." Su Ze paused and spoke softly.
Xiao Lan didn't say anything immediately. This silence made Su Ze lose his composure and turned to look at her. But he saw Xiao Lan looking at him without any shyness. Su Ze didn't know how to respond for a moment and turned his head away again.
"Today, Aunt Xu and Jasmine also told me not to make things difficult for you and to stop the rumors or treat you unfairly. But I didn't care about these things, nor did I want to care. I deliberately walked out of the main gate today so that everyone on the street would know that I had been watching you all night." Su Ze said it frankly, but he didn't even dare to look at Xiao Lan. He just stared at his hands, rubbing the thumb of one hand with the palm of the other hand, non-stop.
Xiao Lan listened quietly, feeling an indescribable emotion. It was impossible not to be moved. With a man like this in front of her, even if she'd paid for him, her heart would still flutter for a moment. Not to mention the shy way he spoke about his little tricks, his hands wrinkled with nervousness.
"Su Ze, do you know what that old friend who looked like you did?" Xiao Lan suddenly asked.
Su Ze was confused and turned to look at her. Xiao Lan thought Su Ze would ask her what she had done, but he didn't ask. He just said, "I am not him, I am just me. You are the only woman I look at more than once, and the woman I have decided on now."
Even when he proposed to her, Su Ze hadn't had that look in his eyes. But now, this man who looked exactly like him said that, his eyes as firm as if she was the one. Xiao Lan didn't dare to look anymore, jumped off the couch, walked barefoot to the door and closed it.
When she turned around, it was Su Ze holding her shoes and following her.
"You've just recovered, don't catch a cold."
She turned her head away, walked away from him, jumped onto the couch and squatted down. She really didn't look very elegant.
Su Ze stood at the door with his shoes in hand, "Do you think these actions will make me back down?"
Xiao Lan was speechless and just looked at him.
"I like you no matter how you are." Su Ze said lightly, as if he was stating a very ordinary fact.
Finally, Xiao Lan said, "I have something important to tell you."
Su Ze walked over, holding out his palm to her. Xiao Lan remained puzzled and didn't move. Su Ze pressed her down onto the couch with one hand, took a cloth shoe in his hand, reached out and grasped her ankle, and put the shoe on her. Then the other...
"Go ahead." Su Ze sat on the stool opposite Xiao Lan, his elbows resting on the table and his chin resting on his palm.
He raised his eyes to look at Xiao Lan, his lips curled up slightly, his starry eyes shining with an unconcealable brilliance that made it impossible to look away.
He was too casual and unrestrained. Xiao Lan was stunned and speechless. Good-looking people are all self-aware. It is impossible to be handsome without knowing it.
"My..." Xiao Lan paused, "Ahem... well, it's just..."
The curve of Su Ze's mouth remained unchanged, but a smile appeared in his eyes. He thought of what Master Cui had said, that Xiao Lan liked his good looks.
It's not that he's unaware of his outstanding looks, but he didn't need to worry about them when he was studying, and they only helped him attract those annoying girls. It's fine if he didn't realize it. But now he thinks it's very good-looking. Just by casually making such a gesture, Xiao Lan blushed without realizing it.
"What……"
"Where is Xiao Xuan?" Xiao Lan finally said something serious.
But he saw the other party's brows tightened, "Restaurant, the previous place."
"Oh... I actually wonder if Liu Hu is..."
"What did you want to say at the Xiao family today? What did you see before you fainted?" Su Ze interrupted her.
This interruption made Xiao Lan pause slightly. "Yes..." He took a breath and then said, "No, I cheated them. My father must have been killed by Xiao Zongwen and his men, and Xiao Xuan should not have known about it. So I suspect it was Xiao Zongwen, Liu Yu, and Fan Zhixing who did it." Xiao Lan said this and then paused slightly and said quickly, "Oh, that's why I said I suspected Liu Hu was captured by Liu Yu again! He wouldn't stay out for so long, and what I did yesterday was spread everywhere, but he didn't..."
"Are you so sure that he will care about you?" Su Ze straightened up, no longer as lazy as before.
"nature!"
"Why?"
"What why?"
"Why are you so sure?"
"What are you sure of?"
"Are you sure he cares about you? Are you sure he knows you're in danger and will come back to save you?"
"Why not..."
"Why are you so sure?" Su Ze took a step forward and looked down at Xiao Lan who was sitting on the couch. Xiao Lan was unable to speak because of her questioning. She didn't know how to answer. She felt ashamed to say that she knew Liu Hu liked her.
So she asked, "Why do you say that?"
Su Ze's eyes twitched, and his face instantly turned cold, "Because you are sure that he likes you." When he said this, his tone was so cold that ice chips fell out.
"Are you jealous?" Xiao Lan deliberately joked, thinking that Su Ze would definitely respond coldly.
"Yes!"
Su Ze's frankness made Xiao Lan embarrassed, and she couldn't respond, "You are..."
"I said that I like you, and I mean it sincerely. I don't like any man related to you. If you really like Liu Hu..." Su Ze tightened his fingers on the low table.
“…” Xiao Lan just looked at him without saying anything.
"If he's in trouble, I won't save him. If you don't like him and just think of him as a friend, then I'll help you!"
Su Ze had already guessed what Xiao Lan wanted to say. She felt that Liu Hu would not ignore her. Su Ze felt that what he said was more of a persuasion to himself than to Xiao Lan.
Xiao Lan thought what Su Ze said was ridiculous.
"Will you help me?"
"Do you like it or not?"
"I need you to visit Liu Yu at the military camp tomorrow and ask him to invite you for a drink. Would you be willing?"
"I don't know."
"I don't know if I'm willing."
"You don't know Liu Yu or you don't know yourself?"
"I just don't know, do you like Liu Hu or not?"
"Are you going to help or not? If not, forget it. I'll go find Xiaowu!"
"Help!" Su Ze suddenly responded, his voice low but gentle, "I'll help you, no need to find anyone else."
