Luo Ying was stunned for a moment before she turned around and smiled. “Lin Su, do you think your words will have any effect on me?”
She thought that after experiencing so many things, Lin Su should at least understand that it was impossible for the two of them to be together. He should not say such flippant words and expect her to chase after him like before.
“I like Lu Zhao very much. Lu Zhao also likes me very much. Our relationship can’t change because of the old master’s actions, let alone because of you,” Luo Ying said coldly.
Her eyes seemed to freeze him over.
Only now did Lin Su realize that no matter what he did, Luo Ying would never return to his side.
“I thought that if something happened to your family’s company, you would at least come to beg me.” Lin Su laughed at himself.
When Luo Ying heard Lin Su’s words, she suddenly thought of those third-rate novels that she liked to read many years ago.
Most of the male leads in the movie would torture the female leads until they were covered in bruises. However, for some reason, those ladies seemed to suffer from a severe case of Stockholm Syndrome. They seemed to only view the male leads in their eyes and no one else, even if it meant losing their lives.
According to the original novel, Luo Ying was bound to serve as nothing but Lin Su’s stepping stone.
Since she now possessed this body, she was not going to let this happen.
“Lin Su, you’re overthinking it. I’m not the kind of person who will follow you after a slap or a sweet date.” Luo Ying’s eyes turned to cold steel.
Lin Su could only feel the bone-piercing cold running through his body.
“Don’t think of separating me from Lu Zhao.” Luo Ying looked at Lin Su as she uttered it word by word, “Also, I’ll settle my company’s matter myself. You better hope our internal investigation doesn’t end up uncovering D’Corporeal’s dirty laundry. It’s better for you to tuck your tail between your legs.”
When Lin Su heard this, he could not help but shudder.
On the surface, D’Coporeal was not his company, but in tact, he was the one who ran all the shadowy matters. His hands were not that clean.
Lin Su stared at Luo Ying’s back as she left. He smashed his fist on the coffee table. The liquid in the wine glass on the coffee table swayed for a long time.
How did Luo Ying know about all this? Did Lu Zhao tell her?
If Lu Zhao knew, he would be finished.
Lin Su gritted his teeth.
He would have to think of a way to get rid of Lu Zhao.
Luo Ying left the coffee table and went to the dessert area. From afar, she saw a redhead in a motorcycle uniform.
Jin Shi also arrived.
Jin Shi saw Luo Ying beckoning and walked over, handing the tray in his hand to Luo Ying.
The plate was filled with butterfly pastries, strawberry mousse, and strawberry fudge, all of which Luo Ying liked to eat.
“Third Brother. You truly understand my taste.” Luo Ying took it with a smile, picked up a piece of strawberry cake, and put it into her mouth.
“Eat with some dignity, would you? Nobody’s snatching that from you,” Jin Shi said with some disdain.
His sister was good in every way except for her bad eating habits. She always ate like she had been starving in the desert.
“Also, you should eat less. Director Cheng Yang wants you to start filming next month. You can’t possibly go there as fat as a ball, can you?” Jin Shi casually took a piece of pastry and put it into his mouth.
Luo Ying frowned.
Lu Zhao’s mother had not been found yet. Luo Ying was a little worried about leaving Lu Zhao here.
“Brother, I actually…” Before Luo Ying could finish, Jin Shi already knew what his sister was going to say.
“You really like Lu Zhao. Lu Zhao is different from us,” Jin Shi said with a frown. “He’s not a real person. We have no idea when we’ll fly back to our world.”
Luo Ying was stunned.
Her genuine happiness with Lu Zhao had driven the reality of this world out of her mind.
“I know you like Lu Zhao. After all, in novels, such troubled prince-like characters always have their agonizing charming. However, I still have to remind you that no matter what kind of person Lu Zhao is, he’s the perfect flawed love interest carefully crafted with words. He’s not a real character.”
Jin Shi’s words made Luo Ying fall silent.
A lover made out of words…
She chuckled in her heart. Every day felt as real as it could be. If only Lu Zhao could go to the same world as them.
“I’m already looking for a way to go back. Maybe one day, we’ll go back to our home together..”
