Chapter 16: The First World (16)

"Lu Zhi," Chen Xiao glared at Lu Zhi with a pair of apricot eyes that were exactly the same as An Xia, "In the past three years, I have never given up on you, and I have never been stingy when you encounter a need for money in your business...... You fainted on the wine table when you were sick, I rushed there as soon as possible, you are the fish that slipped through the net in Chen Jinnian's removal list, and I have been hiding it from him all these years! Otherwise, how could you have survived until now with the ruin of that time. When you are the hardest, when you are the darkest in your life, she Luo Jiu has been gone for three years, where am I inferior to her! I've done so much for you, don't you have any feelings for me? ”

"The hardest, darkest?" Lu Zhi couldn't help but smile, his expression was grim, "I'm not thanking you. ”

A sentence was like a sharp knife piercing Chen Xiao's heart, thanks to her...... Thanks to her...... Yes, Lu Zhi lost everything because she stole the computer and stunned Luo Jiu.

She seems to be awakened in a dream, falling in love with Lu Zhi and getting engaged, she sometimes really thinks she is a good person.

……………………………………

Lu Zhi didn't come back after leaving, and Luo Jiu fell on the bed and slept until dawn. Her sleep quotient has always been different from ordinary people, no matter how big things she encounters, she can sleep peacefully and have no dreams all night.

"Miss Luo, are you awake?" At this time, a male voice came from outside the door, "Mr. Lu is going to participate in an event today, and he specially asked me to inform you and accompany him." ”

Luo Jiu smoothed the messy hair with his hand and quickly got out of bed: "Oh, okay." I'm coming. ”

What is Lu Zhi doing? Luo Jiu thought in his heart.

She was still wearing her own clothes, and because she had been lying on the big bed all night, there was some smell left on Lu Zhi's body at the moment.

The event was held in a luxurious hall, and to Luo Jiu's surprise, this hall was located in the Night City Emperor's Age.

Isn't it closed during the day? Luo Jiu followed behind Lu Zhi and looked around.

Except for the update here, there is not much change here, Luo Jiu worked here all night back then, and she has no feelings for this place, but suddenly thought of spending three years here, so she had a feeling of trance, obviously she had only passed three hours.

"Now this is under the Lu family." A faint voice came, and the person in front suddenly stopped, and Luo Jiu almost bumped into it.

"You bought it?" Luo Jiu asked with some surprise. Good guy, Lu Zhihe seems to be really good now. Thinking of this, Luo Jiu thought that he must have suffered a lot, so his mood became heavy again.

Damn, she shouldn't have done that.

"I've bought all the places you've been." Those things that have something to do with her are his, the corners of Lu Zhi's mouth hooked slightly, and then when his gaze swept over the man walking towards him, he slowly lowered it again.

The man is no longer as youthful as before, his neat and capable inch hair looks mature and attractive, and his three-dimensional facial features are combined into a handsome face, he is Chen Ming.

In the hall, a white tablecloth table is lined with red wine glasses stacked in the shape of a hill, and a variety of sweets are available. In the slow and elegant music, Chen Ming called out, "Luo Jiu." ”

He couldn't believe it, but it was more joyful. Just last night, Chen Jinming called him who was far away and said that Luo Jiu was back. At that time, he didn't even verify it, and immediately booked a ticket and flew back overnight.

Chen Jinming had deceived him with such words several times before, and every time he would be fooled. Once, twice, four, ten...... Chen Jinming was a little worried about Chen Ming's IQ.

This time, Chen Jinming also wanted to test him again to see if he believed it or not. Sure enough, he believed it again, but compared to the previous failures, he finally saw her.

The line of sight was blocked by Lu Zhi, and Chen Ming could only walk over head-on.

"Chen Ming? How do you do this? Luo Jiu was also very surprised, she looked at him, "Yes, I'm getting more and more handsome." ”

"Are you okay?" He had imagined countless times what would happen to him if he found her. Will he pounce on her shoulders and ask her why she disappeared, will he hug her and cry by the way, and tell her about the hardships of searching for her over the years, or will he take her directly and leave here without hesitation.

But the reality is just a faint "are you okay". Those resentments, bitterness, seemed to disappear the moment they saw her.

He smiled, his eyes still as bright and sunny as they were three years ago.

When Luo Jiu looked at him, he was also looking at Luo Jiu, three years, she hadn't changed at all, and her golden eyes were still so dazzling.

"She's fine." Lu Zhi interrupted the two of them with a cold face, "Chen Ming, she is now my personal bodyguard. ”

Well? Personal bodyguards? Luo Jiu frowned.

"Tsk, Lu Zhi, isn't she your sister? Why did you become your personal bodyguard? Chen Ming's smile did not diminish in the slightest, and he took a few steps to the left until Luo Jiu appeared in his sight again.

"She's not my sister, she saved me from the beginning because I was his fiancé." Lu Zhi said nonsense very calmly.

Well? Fiance? What the heck?

These words obviously stimulated Chen Ming, "What? Fiance? Then he thought for a while, "No, where did the Lu family and the Luo family get the marriage contract?" The Luo family does not exist at all. "Chen Ming once investigated Luo Jiu, even if he used Chen Jinnian's power, he couldn't find anything about Luo Jiu, as if she came out of thin air and was not originally from this world.

"I'm talking about the present. From now on, she is my fiancée. ”

Luo Jiu woke up at this time, she hurriedly observed the decoration of this hall, which was similar to last night's, and even the people invited seemed to be the original team.

Engagement Banquet! This is her and Lu Zhi's engagement banquet!?

She just came back last night, and the next day Lu Zhi even prepared the engagement banquet. But the problem is, she didn't prepare at all, look at the business friends who attended the banquet in Lu Zhi's formal clothes, and then look at Luo Jiu's home casual clothes, can she be more serious?

Hey, that's not right, why is she worried about this? Lu Zhike is her boss! How could she do that!

was thinking about it, his hand was suddenly held, and the warm touch made Luo Jiu slightly stunned, and Lu Zhi pulled Luo Jiu onto the rostrum under Chen Ming's gaze.

"Everyone." The man was full of aura, and as soon as he opened his mouth, the people who had been chatting together in twos and threes immediately paid attention to him.

When his eyes swept over the delicate-looking woman next to him, it was not An Xia! Everyone was a little at a loss, yesterday's engagement banquet was suddenly canceled, originally thought that this morning's re-event was for An Xia, after all, everyone knew about An Xia and Lu Zhi. But I didn't expect that today's protagonist turned out to be the uninvited guest who broke into the banquet.

She didn't even wear a dress, and she was too unruly, far from the gentle and polite An Xia.

"I don't have any family, only the friends you have made in the business field, and today is an important day for me. I will propose to the love of my life, Luo Jiu, and everyone will give me a witness. After speaking, he knelt down on one leg in front of Luo Jiu under the incredible gaze of everyone, and in the center of the tightly inlaid and exquisite diamond, there was the word "Jiu", Luo Jiu looked at the word and was stunned.

This is by no means custom-made in a short period of time, according to her estimates, this ring will be made for at least two or three years. Therefore, Lu Zhi had already planned for this engagement banquet.

When could it be? Is it the night before the college entrance examination, has he been preparing since he hugged her to confess? The ring was expensive, and then he was destitute, and she said goodbye, did he think about giving up?

What would he do with it if he hadn't waited for her?

Luo Jiu unconsciously thought about it a lot, and it wasn't until Xiaomu's shouting in her mind pulled her thoughts back.

She's been here for years, but in reality it's only a day. On this day, she was confessed and proposed again.

How will Luo's father and Luo's mother react when they find out? My best friend Ye Xuanyao found out, what would she say? What about those good classmates?

Chen Ming stood under the stage with a gloomy face, unable to see his expression clearly. But standing next to him was ...... Luo Jiu narrowed his eyes, it was Chen Jinming.

Seeing Chen Jinming, Luo Jiu remembered the heroine. She had to hurry up and tell him that the real Anshya was locked up somewhere.

There was anxiety in her expression, and she just wanted to say something.

"Luo Jiu, marry me." He wasn't completely discouraged, he still hated her for leaving him, but he still loved her, and he wanted to keep her by his side for the rest of his life. He couldn't wait to arrange this engagement reception.

The ring shone again, as if to say, "Put me on." ”

The man's expression was serious, his face was not the coldness of last night, his eyes were once dark, and now, there was boundless and crazy growth of love there.

His face coincided with that of his youth, and they said together,

Marry me.

He really grew up, even if he said it countless times. He went from resisting and distrusting her to delivering wholeheartedly, relying on family affection, and then to the breeding of love, and his eyes were full of her.

He looked at her, so solemn, so hot. , as if she were his whole world.

Even if Luo Jiu is sluggish, there is something faintly loose in his heart. The word "Jiu" tempted her to reach out at all times.

It's quiet, it's all quiet, the music is gone, the noise is gone, it's gone.

She didn't know what was wrong with her, and at this moment, in her eyes, only this sincere and gentle person was holding the ring.

He is the villain of the original book, and gentleness is not his exclusive word.

At the moment when his hand touched the ring, Lu Zhi almost had an excited smile on his face.

"Luo Jiu, do you like Lu Zhi?" Xiao Mu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

A thunderbolt flashed, does she like Lu Zhi?

The hands hesitated, and Lu Zhi was also stunned, the excitement and joy of the prairie fire just now seemed to be covered by ice and snow.

Does she like him? Does she like it? Do you like it? Is it for the sake of the task?

She agrees to his proposal, and then regains him when he is fully recoverable, stripping him of his life in this world.

She promised to stay with him for the rest of her life, then betrayed him when the mission was completed and returned to the present world to take on the next mission.

She can also choose not to recover him, and has been living from this world with jet lag until he dies of old age, and then she will not grow old or die, and then return to the present world alone for a lifetime, and even the first mission is messed up.

That's not the point, the point is that she seems to be gone, except for being moved, and the guilt of being gone for three years.

Yes, no, she doesn't like him, and she doesn't love him, although she doesn't understand what it's like to like someone.

In this case, why did she deceive herself and accept Lu Zhi against her will? This is also unfair to Lu Zhi.

Moreover, the Lu Zhi of this world is only a part of the soul of the real Lu Zhi.

"I'm sorry...... I. A low female voice rang out, especially harsh in the hall.

The light in Lu Zhi's eyes began to fall, and he couldn't believe what Luo Jiu said next.

"I don't love you."

She doesn't love him, everything is his wishful thinking, self-inflicted......

He has waited for the moment for so many years, looked forward to it for so many years, and even the beauty that appeared countless times in his dreams was shattered by the sentence "I don't love you".

It seems that all of a sudden, there is an explanation for her disappearance, because she doesn't love him at all, so she can go wherever she wants, leave whenever she wants. She didn't care if he was sad, sad, or painful.

Words can kill people. Now it is.

The hardships endured in those years are simply insignificant in front of this moment.

Luo Jiu was also a little sad in his heart, especially when he saw Lu Zhi's lost soul.
