After Su Rou put down her exercise book, she ran downstairs again. Su Yuze handed her the phone. "Jiang Ling sent you a text message."
"Okay." Su Rou took the phone and tapped out a reply in a hurry.
"What did he say to you?"
"He asked if I was at home." Su Rou replied. "He's just checking up on me."
Su Yuze raised his handsome eyebrows. "That guy, does he like you?"
"Um... probably." Su Rou didn't think much and answered casually. Then she put away the phone. "Brother Ze, let's have dinner."
"Sure." Su Yuze curled his lips slightly. Su Rou's reaction told him that she should have rejected Jiang Ling's confession. "Xiaorou'er, the most important thing now is the college entrance examination. Contact Jiang Ling less."
"Okay, I got it."
...
At night, Su Ziqi went straight to Lulu's home. Lulu was kicked by Su Yuze that day. Two of her ribs were broken, and a classroom desk was crushed under her. She was black and blue all over. Now she could only lie at home recuperating.
Su Ziqi's arrival surprised her, but more than that, she felt shy. It seemed that Ziqi still cared about her. Knowing that she was injured, he came to see her specifically. But... "Ziqi, I don't look good now." She lowered her head shyly, not wanting Su Ziqi to see her miserable state.
"Good-looking? What do you think you are!" Su Ziqi pushed her away. He didn't control his strength well and pushed her onto the bed board. Then he stepped on her back, right on the injured area.
"Ah, it hurts so much... Ziqi, don't step on me!" Lulu screamed hysterically. She half-closed her left eye. Her face was still swollen, and her back was being stepped on. She was grimacing in pain.
Su Ziqi spat at her. "Get out!"
Only then did Lulu realize that this man didn't come to flirt with her but to confront her! "I, what did I do... Ziqi, did you misunderstand something?" My God, Su Ziqi was so scary!
Su Ziqi retracted his foot and watched Lulu struggle to get up from the bed board. Her once pretty face was now in a sorry state. Su Ziqi casually pulled over a chair and sat down. He was still wearing the suit he wore at the company during the day. "You moved. It took me a long time to find you."
Lulu shrank in the corner of the bed, looking at Su Ziqi with fear in her eyes. "What do you want to do?"
"Didn't you go to my sister's school and say that she stole me?" Su Ziqi slung his leg over the other and lit a cigarette. "Huh?"
"Sister..." Lulu widened her other open eye. "She... is really your sister?" When Su Rou explained, she thought it was just an excuse. She didn't expect it to be true!
Su Ziqi's eyes darkened. "You bitch, did you beat her?"
"I, I didn't..." Lulu pointed to her face. "I was also beaten by a man..." She just scratched that girl a few times. She was the one who was the most miserable, directly kicked half to death by Su Yuze!
"You deserve it."
Su Ziqi snapped his fingers. Five black-clothed bodyguards immediately rushed in from the door. Each of them faced Lulu seriously.
"Ziqi... what do you want to do?"
"Make your fractures worse."
Su Ziqi made a gesture, and the five black-clothed bodyguards immediately rushed over. Regardless of Lulu's already disabled body, they dragged her out and beat her up. For a moment, the only sound in the small apartment was Lulu's shrill screams.
Su Ziqi threw away the cigarette and left. He even closed the door for Lulu. He must disable this bitch today!
...
Su Rou spent two days at home reviewing, feeling relaxed and at ease. Su Yuze left some money for her, telling her to buy whatever she wanted.
Ding ding ding -
Su Rou was lying in bed, lazily looking through her phone. It was another text message from Jiang Ling: Xiaorou, are you free now?
Su Rou sent a text message back: I'm at home reviewing.
"By the way, the express delivery should be here." Su Rou ordered a set of Olympiad math exercises online to broaden her thinking. It should be delivered today! She threw away her phone, jumped out of bed, and started washing up. She didn't notice that her phone flashed twice, indicating a new text message.
"Miss, your express delivery is here." Aunt Wang handed a set of test papers to Su Rou. "I'll go make breakfast for you."
"Okay."
Su Rou opened the test papers and immediately felt a bit disappointed. What the hell? She had done many of these questions before! These publishers were really cheating. They just printed the same questions over and over again. "Bad review." She must give a bad review!
Su Rou threw the test papers aside and hugged Xiaoke'ai boredly while watching TV.
Not long after, the door of the Su family's villa was knocked on again. Xiaoke'ai jumped off the sofa and took a defensive stance. "Aunt Wang, you cook. I'll go open the door."
"Okay!"
Standing outside the door was the gentle and handsome Jiang Ling. "Why are you here?" Why did he come without saying a word?
"I sent you a text message." Jiang Ling waved his phone. "But you didn't reply, so I assumed you agreed!"
"I didn't even look at my phone." She had no idea that Jiang Ling had sent this text message. To be honest, she didn't really want to see Jiang Ling, especially after knowing his feelings!
"Aren't you going to invite me in?" Jiang Ling asked with a smile.
Su Rou stepped aside and let Jiang Ling in. But Xiaoke'ai was very unfamiliar with this boy. When it saw Jiang Ling, it started growling and showing its teeth. Jiang Ling looked at Xiaoke'ai. "Long time no see. Xiaoke'ai has grown so big." He remembered that the first time he came, Xiaoke'ai was still very small!
"Yeah, it has." Su Rou pulled Xiaoke'ai away. "My brother will be back soon." She reminded him because Su Yuze didn't like it when people came to their home.
"Okay, I won't stay long." Jiang Ling sat on the sofa. "I'm here to remind you that if you want to study abroad, you can submit your application now."
"Huh?" Su Rou asked suspiciously. "So soon?"
"The system abroad is of course different. You also have to pass other exams!" Jiang Ling knew that Su Rou must not have paid attention to these details, so he came specifically to remind her and also ask which school she was interested in.
Su Rou thought for a while. "I see. Okay..." Su Rou took a deep breath. "Can I submit it online?"
"Yeah, you can." Jiang Ling nodded. "Xiaorou, where do you... want to go?"
"Probably Oxford."
Oxford University? That was also a famous school! Jiang Ling secretly approved in his heart. Great, Oxford, right! It was good to have it confirmed! "Then I'll leave first. I still have to review my lessons when I get back."
"Okay."
