Chapter 112: Admitting Bad Luck
Su Luo fled back to her room like a debtor, locked the door, and then moved the table to block the door. Of course, she didn't think it was a big mistake to tell Qin Qing about Su Jiang. She just felt that if she spit out the dirty things of a mean-spirited man, she would definitely be retaliated.
Half an hour...an hour...no movement?
Su Luo didn't believe that Li Rusong would just let it go. The bad thing was that it was getting dark, and she had just vomited most of what was in her stomach, so she was hungry. But there was no reason to abuse herself because of fear of revenge from evil forces. As the saying goes, "Evil forces will eventually be defeated, and the world will return to peace"... But there are also sayings that "The higher the virtue, the higher the evil", "Good people don't live long, but evil lasts for thousands of years"... It seemed to be going off topic... She meant that if she opened the door like this, Li Rusong would be waiting outside to retaliate, or think of some more harmful tricks to deal with her... It was absolutely possible!
"Sister, it's time to eat."
Su Yi's voice came from outside the door, and Su Luo quickly jumped to the door, "Xiao Yi, are you the only one outside?"
"Yes, everyone is waiting for you to eat. Come quickly, I'll go back first." After Su Yi finished speaking, the footsteps gradually faded away.
Su Luo slapped her face. Was what happened just now an illusion? Otherwise, with Li Rusong's character, how could he let her go so easily? At the very least, he should be venomous and sarcastic.
Scratching her head, Su Luo walked out of the room and came to the main room. Her house was usually lively. Today, in addition to Su, Bao Zixing, Old Li, Wu Yong, Dazhong and others, there was another person sitting in the main seat, which was her usual seat. It was Li Rusong, who had just taken a shower and changed his clothes.
Su Luo pretended not to see him, "Where are Master Wan and the others? Don't they want to eat anymore?"
Su Yi said, "They left not long after you left in the afternoon. They left a letter. I'll give it to you later."
Su Luo nodded. She knew they wouldn't stay long, so she didn't take it to heart. She was just angry at Li Rusong's seemingly polite appearance. She walked over unhappily, grabbed his clothes by his shoulders and lifted them up, "Get up, take my seat."
"Luo'er." Su passed the dish on her chopsticks to Li Rusong and put them down again. "I haven't told you about what happened today. How rude of you."
"I'm not being rude!" Su Luo pushed Li Rusong aside and sat down next to Su with grievance. "I went to meet a client today, and was ambushed on the way back. Look, it was him!" Su Luo pointed at Li Rusong with her index finger. "He carried me onto the horse like crazy, and shook me all the way. After throwing me off the horse, he kept nagging me. I couldn't bear the torture, so I vomited all over him. He also blamed me for telling Qin Qing about Su Jiang, and his voice was so loud that it sounded like he wanted to kill someone!" Su Luo slammed the table, stood up again, and forced his way in front of Li Rusong . "Yes, I told Qin Qing about Su Jiang. What's wrong with that? Do you need to yell at me so loudly? What kind of person is Su Jiang? Do you have to keep her life secret? How do I know that you have that kind of messy relationship with Su Jiang and Qin Qing? How do I know that Qin Qing asked me for a purpose? I didn't deliberately let Qin Qing find trouble for Su Jiang. Am I jealous that Su Jiang is prettier than me?"
There was silence at the dinner table for a moment. Su looked puzzled. "Luo'er, what did you say about Su Jiang? What about vomiting or not vomiting? Ah? So it was you who vomited all over Lord Li?"
"Eh?" Su Luo looked at Su, then at Li Rusong, and blinked, "Didn't you complain first?"
Li Rusong spread his hands like a good boy, "Obviously, you exposed yourself."
Su stood up and pulled Su Luo over. "I was saying that it was rude of you to not come out to greet Lord Li even though you knew he was coming. I didn't expect you to do something even more rude. Lord Li..." Su looked apologetic. "I'm really sorry."
"Why apologize to him?" Su Luo pushed Su back to his seat. "If he needs to apologize, he should apologize to me."
Li Rusong bowed calmly and said, "Auntie Su, I did give Miss Su a ride on my horse out of kindness, but I didn't expect that she was not used to it and became sick. I should apologize."
Su looked at Su Luo, feeling a little distressed and a little blaming, "Even so, Lord Li meant well. How is it? Are you still not feeling well?"
Su Luo gritted her teeth and decided to endure it. She leaned on Su and acted like a spoiled child, saying that she wanted to drink some tapioca pearl soup. Su naturally agreed to make it for Su Luo herself and said, "Why don't you invite Lord Li to take a seat?"
Su Luo glared at him secretly, then pointed to the farthest place and said, "Hmm." Su Luo didn't even bother to communicate with this guy who casually confuse right and wrong in the human way.
Su felt embarrassed, and Li Rusong quickly told Su not to be polite, and really sat in the farthest place, just opposite Su Luo, which made Su Luo unable to eat properly. After finally finishing his meal, he was about to ask Su to leave, but he heard Su say, "Manager Bao, please arrange a guest room for Lord Li. Lord Li, you will stay here for a few days."
Li Rusong was naturally still polite. Su Luo stood up suddenly and asked, "He wants to live in our house?"
Everyone at the table was nodding to her. Su Luo glared at Li Rusong madly. Li Rusong smiled and nodded, which seemed a bit like a demonstration in Su Luo's eyes.
"You...you are Qin Huai's friend, why don't you go to him but live in my house?" Su Luo tried to reason.
"I really don't want to cause you any trouble, but the Qin Mansion is really not very convenient. If... you have any difficulties, I'd better stay at the inn."
True or false. Su Luo's eyes twitched twice, and he shook his hands like he was chasing away the plague god, "Go, go."
"Luo'er!" Su was really a little angry, "Why are you so rude today?"
"Mother..." Su Luo was at a loss as soon as Mrs. Su showed this attitude, "I... I mean... our house is not an inn, it's not convenient to let a stranger stay here."
"How can it be a stranger? Lord Li is our family's benefactor."
Bao Zixing echoed, "Yes, if it wasn't for Lord Li, you wouldn't have been able to find your mother so quickly."
Su Luo was so angry that her face was paralyzed. She didn't even look at where the money to bribe the wet nurse came from. After spending her money, this guy still had the nerve to ask her to treat him to a big meal. It was simply unfair!
Li Rusong seemed to have suffered a great injustice, "I didn't expect that after that night, you still treated me as a stranger."
Su Luo was stunned for a long time, "That night?"
Li Rusong looked around and saw many gossiping faces. Of course, they were all very worried. He smiled casually and looked up at Su Luo. "It was the night when I came back to attend the auction on behalf of the princess. Aunt Su and the others were not back. There were only the two of us here that night..."
"Bah!" Su Luo was mad, "What do you mean the two of us, and Xiao Yi?"
Li Rusong chuckled, his eyes clearly flashing with a gleam of success, "Maybe he was asleep at the time, so I didn't notice it."
"Hey, hey, hey! Explain clearly what you mean by 'at that time'! I, I, I... who would tell you about 'at that time'!"
"In that case, I'd better not disturb you." Li Rusong did not give Su Luo any chance to speak. He nodded to Su and others, then turned and walked out of the lobby.
Su Luo rushed out immediately after him. Su stood up worriedly. Bao Zixing said, "Let the young people handle their own affairs."
Su was still worried, "But you heard from Luo'er that Lord Li seemed to be having problems with Su Jiang and Miss Qin..."
Old Li finished a bowl of rice, put down his bowl and chopsticks, stroked his beard and said: "Love always needs to be tempered. Without going through the bitter cold, how can the fragrance of plum blossoms be so fragrant? Thinking back to the past..."
Everyone at the table listened with great interest to what Old Li was thinking about. As for Su Luo... let her be chilled to the bone first.
Su Luo chased Li Rusong out of the hall, shouting all the way, "Hey, hey, hey, go back and explain yourself clearly!"
Li Rusong stopped and said, "If I can stay, I will explain it clearly. Otherwise... I can't guarantee that they won't misunderstand that there is something between you and me... that cannot be revealed."
"Wow!" Su Luo pointed at him in anguish, "You turned hostile as soon as you left the house. Are you human? What did you say in the house just now... You were kind enough to give me a ride? Why didn't you just let the horse trample you to death? You are really... the Black and White Impermanence who confuses right and wrong!"
Li Rusong crossed his arms over his chest, looking at Su Luo with amusement as her face turned red with anger, and said lazily: "Think it over carefully, I'm always good at telling stories."
"What is your purpose? Is it because Su Jiang wants to take revenge on me? What kind of persecution did Su Jiang suffer? With your strength, you would have helped her to overthrow three mountains long ago. Considering that it was an unintentional mistake, you don't have to treat me like this, right?"
Mentioning Su Jiang, Li Rusong became serious again, "This time it is indeed serious . Bai Qing'er burned down the Su family's store."
Su Luo blinked for a long time, "Huh? No way? Burned again?"
"Last time it was the warehouse, this time it's the store. The Su family finally managed to hold on again, but it's gone again in an instant."
"Hey, hey, hey, why are you speaking so sadly? If you can get Qin Huai to help her once, you can help her again."
Li Rusong frowned in surprise. "Qin Qing somehow found out that Qin Huai was secretly helping the Su family, and asked someone to tell Su Jiang that she would no longer easily accept funding from outsiders. Besides, Bai Qing'er's father is the president of the Nanjing Chamber of Commerce. Even in Zhuxian Town, if she said she wanted to bankrupt a store, there would be many people to help her. If she doesn't stop, the Su family will be completely finished."
Su Luo thought for a long time... and then spread his hands, "What does that have to do with me? And what does it have to do with you insisting on living in our house? Please, you are the commander-in-chief. As long as you ask, Su Jiale will happily send Su Jiang to your room. You have to pretend to be noble and play true love. Now that you can't catch up with a woman, you are taking your anger out on me? Why why why why?"
"I came here this time to find you a solution."
"It's not my business……"
Li Rusong suddenly came to Su Luo and said, "It was you who revealed Su Jiang's affairs to Qin Qing, so Qin Qing let Bai Qing'er go to Zhuxian Town."
Su Luo grabbed her hair and said, "Even if I don't tell you, Qin Qing will find out somehow..."
"If someone else said it, I would naturally look for someone else, but now it's you who said it." Li Rusong put on an innocent expression again, as if he really couldn't bear to drag Su Luo into the water, and finally sighed, "Just consider it your bad luck."
Su Luo gritted his teeth and said, "I don't accept it!"
"The appeal is invalid!" Li Rusong stood up straight. "If you don't cooperate, at most I'll cause a little trouble so that more people know what we did 'that night'."
"Hey! You are clearly wrongly accusing me." Su Luo was so angry that he jumped up and down.
Li Rusong nodded, "That's right."
"You, you, you, you... wait!" Su Luo's brows were getting tighter and tighter. "What did you say you wanted to spread? That night? What exactly want me to cooperate with? It can't be..."
"Go on." Li Rushong gave an encouraging look.
"You're not going to make me pretend to do that with you, right?"
Li Rusong raised his eyebrows and said, "If Qin Qing's attention is diverted to you, there will be no worries in Zhuxian Town."
"No way..." Su Luo stared at Li Rusong in disbelief, "Why are your ideas so unsophisticated? You...you and Qin Huai...I can't handle it!"
