"What was she saying?" Yang Mi asked as soon as Li Xiaolu came back.
"Just some nonsense. She not worth our attention, Sister Yang Mi. Let's go..." Li Xiaolu said.
"Yeah, you're right about that." Yang Mi chuckled as they walked towards the entrance. "Earlier when you were talking with Li Roulan, Director Ye reminded me to tell you about the audition."
"Audition? Oh! That one. Don't worry, Sister Yang Mi. I remember everything." Li Xiaolu said.
"So, should I drop you or is your Mr. zeal, heartfelt, everything, happiness, affection, nice coming to pick you up?" Yang Mi teased as they neared her car.
Li Xiaolu blushed. "Sister Yang Mi, don't tease me!!"
Yang Mi laughed. "But I didn't really think that you were going to say his name on national television? You almost scared me for a moment. "
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLi Xiaolu shrugged. "I never thought that I would say his name, Sister Yang Mi. It just happened..."
Yang Mi smiled understanding Li Xiaolu's emotion. She was happy for Li Xiaolu. After all the harsh things that Li Xiaolu went through, Yang Mi felt that being with Mr.Zhang was everything that Li Xiaolu needed. Sometimes you just need the love of that one person to me you forget all your pains. You need that one person to fill your dull life with colors of happiness and love.
And Yang Mi knew that Mr.Zhang Zhehan was that person for Li Xiaolu. As Yang Mi and Li Xiaolu were talking about various things while waiting for Zhang Zhehan to arrive they suddenly heard someone calling Li Xiaolu's name.
"Li Xiaolu..."
Yang Mi and Li Xiaolu both turned at the same time and saw a handsome young man standing in front of them. Li Xiaolu glanced at the familiar man in front of her and then suddenly smiled. "Oh! Mr. Long... "
Long Xun frowned at the way Li Xiaolu called him. It was so unfamiliar and distant but since someone else was present with her he didn't say anything.
"Who is this beautiful miss?" he asked gesturing towards Yang Mi.
"Oh! Mr. Long this is my manager, Yang Mi." Li Xiaolu introduced, "Sister Yang Mi, this is Mr.Long..."
"Miss Yang Mi, it's a pleasure to meet you..." Long Xin said with a swoon-worthy smile shaking Yang Mi. He glanced at the girl in front of him. Earlier he didn't miss the way Li Xiaolu called this girl. When he was reading the file about Li Xiaolu, there was nothing mentioned about her. It looks like he had to check the information about this girl too.
"Likewise..." Yang Mi smiled shaking his hand. When Long Xun was evaluating Yang Mi, she was also doing the same. This man infront of her was way more handsome than anybody she had ever seen. If she compared him with Zhang Zhehan, then they would be placed on the same level on the basis of their looks. But upon closer look, Zhang Zhehan had a cold personality which made people unable to get close but him but this man had a charming and something dangerous about him, making him even more superior to Zhang Zhehan.
"Mr.Long how come you are here?" Li Xiaolu asked.
"I had some work nearby. " Long Xun answered, " Anyway I saw your interview today, it was good. You looked beautiful as always..."
"Thank you..." Li Xiaolu blushed.
"Are you both waiting for someone? Or should I drop you?" Long Xun asked.
"Umm... actually Mr.Long someone is coming to pick me up." Li Xiaolu answered.
Suddenly Yang Mi's phone and rang and she looked at Li Xiaolu hesitantly, "Ummm... Xiaolu it's an important call. I need to take this. Are you sure you..." Yang Mi said as she glanced at Long Xun.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"It's fine, Sister Yang Mi. You can take the call." Li Xiaolu smiled. She understood what Yang Mi was worried about. After all, for her, Long Xun was an unfamiliar man. But Li Xiaolu wasn't afraid because first of all Long Xun was her savior and secondly Zhehan had placed many guards around her. So, she has nothing to worry about.
Getting Li Xiaolu's assurance Yang Mi sighed in relief. She excused herself and went towards a certain distance to take the call. Even though she was at a distance, she still kept her eyes on Li Xiaolu and Long Xun. Call it a sixth sense or her women's instinct, she felt something wasn't right about Long Xun. She didn't know if she imagined or not but she felt Long Xun was a dangerous man.
After Yang Mi left, Long Xun sighed in relief. He wanted some alone time with his queen, it was good that the girl was gone. Glancing at the Long Xun, Li Xiaolu smiled and said, "I hope Mr. Long Xun doesn't take offense. Sister Yang Mi is worried about me."
Long Xun smiled shaking his head. "It's fine. You are very close to Yang Mi? "
Li Xiaolu nodded with a smile while looking at Sister Yang Mi who was currently talking over the phone. "She is like my elder sister."
"She's very protective of you. It's good for such people to be around. " Long Xun said with a small voice missing his dad. Clearly feeling a sense of loss from Long Xun's tone, Li Xiaolu hesitated and then slowly asked, "Are you alright?"
Long Xun looked at the beautiful face filled with worry about him, shook his head and smiled, "Nothing. Just missing some people."
"I'm sure they would be missing you too." Li Xiaolu said.
"Can't. " Long Xun chuckled hopelessly, "Already dead."
Li Xiaolu was stunned. Clearing her throat she replied, "I'm so sorry."
Long Xun didn't say anything but just glanced at the moonlight above completely lost in his thoughts.
