That scheming man!

Fine. Little Jiu’s attention is all on him now. He must be enjoying Little Jiu’s concern, right? He must be feeling very comfortable now.

If Han Siye had been the one injured, then Rong Si wouldn’t have been the target of her concern. It’s so d*mn manipulative!

As the night deepened, the car drove back to the Su family estate.

Sitting in the back seat, Su Jiu kept turning her head to look at Rong Si’s handsome side profile. Her lips were slightly parted, as if she wanted to say something. However, she was hesitating.

“Haven’t you seen enough?” Rong Si looked back at her.

Ahhh, now he knows I was staring at him.

Embarrassed, Su Jiu laughed dryly. “That’s right. How can I get enough of you when you’re always so handsome?”

Rong Si raised his eyebrows. “Just say what you want to say.”

“Just say what you have to say.”

Su Jiu was speechless.

He had seen through her little ploy.

Su Jiu leaned closer to him and asked the question that was on her mind. “Big Brother, I want to ask you. When you were in the ring, you were in good shape at first. But why did you get distracted later… Are you not feeling well?”

“No.”

“No?” Su Jiu was a little surprised. Suddenly, she remembered what Song Xinyan had said. Blushing, she asked, “Could it be that… I really kissed you silly?”

“Huh?” Rong Si’s smile deepened.

I was kissed silly?

Isn’t it always the girl who gets kissed silly, right?

Su Jiu looked at him with bright eyes and said understandingly, “Big Brother, I know it’s embarrassing for a big boy to be pressed against the door by a girl, but only the two of us were there, and no one else saw it. So don’t take it to heart. I won’t laugh at you. I’ll even keep it a secret for you!”

Su Jiu spoke eloquently.

Rong Si was amused. What is this little fool thinking?

“Not because of that.” He reached out and flicked her forehead. “I lost on purpose.”

“What?”

Su Jiu was stunned. “You lost on purpose? Why?”

Rong Si leaned back in his seat and smiled a little, pulling at the wound at the corner of his mouth. It hurt, but he didn’t care. “Because I want you to have eyes for only me.”

Su Jiu was speechless.

Huh?

He looked at her steadily. “If I had won, Han Siye would have been the one injured. Wouldn’t you have paid attention to him?”

Ah, well…

Su Jiu choked. If the injured person had been Han Siye, she might just have asked a few vague questions.

“And if he wins, would he be less resentful and pester you less?” Rong Si asked, then paused.

Continuing, he said, “The most important reason, of course, is that I like it when you care for me.”

Su Jiu was dumbfounded.

He’d hurt himself to get my attention, to make me care for him?’

She hadn’t expected Rong Si to think that way. Sometimes, she couldn’t understand how his mind worked.

Su Jiu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Big Brother, how much do you like me to do such a stupid thing?”

“What’s wrong with doing something stupid for someone you like?” Rong Si looked at her intently. “It’s just that some girl seems a little stupid and slow. It took her so long to realize I liked her.”

“Hmph! How dare you say that? Who wants you to be so uptight? You didn’t tell me. Without you telling me, how could I have been sure you really liked me? What if I had been imagining things?”

Su Jiu puffed out her cheeks. “Also, it’s all thanks to my patience that you finally spoke up. If it were any other girl, they might not have been able to wait. They might have left to be with another boy.”
