Zhao Zhao was extremely surprised and confused to see Su Yuan suddenly appear here. She tilted her head and asked Su Yuan, "Why are you here?"
You... Su Yuan felt as if he'd been stabbed by these words. Zhao Zhao didn't call his name anymore. The words sounded so polite and distant that Su Yuan's already gloomy mood got even worse.
However, looking into Zhao Zhao's truly innocent eyes, he managed to hold back the anger in his heart. He tried his best to ask Zhao Zhao in a calm tone, "What were you doing just now?"
"What does it matter to you?" Zhao Zhao originally didn't intend to tell Su Yuan in the first place. Under normal circumstances, she wouldn't talk to Su Yuan like this. But today, she was so angry with Su Yuan that she deliberately said this to provoke him.
Sure enough, Su Yuan was angered by her and even laughed out of rage.
He didn't want to ask anymore. He stepped forward directly, intending to take Zhao Zhao back and beat Lu Chukong to death on the way.
Lu Chukong, who was highly alert to danger, suddenly had an epiphany. He seemed to understand what was going on.
For the sake of his own life, Lu Chukong dashed out from behind Zhao Zhao like lightning. Grabbing Taotie and pointing at the table full of dishes, he said seriously and quickly, "Lord Dragon King, as you can see, we're preparing a live - streaming show with Taotie as the main character. I'm here mainly to help Zhao Zhao and Taotie with the on - site arrangement. I guarantee there's absolutely no other intention. May the heavens and earth bear witness!"
"..." Su Yuan felt as if his anger had been abruptly suppressed halfway, and he had no reason to be angry.
He had misunderstood.
Taotie was extremely worried. He could only look at the table full of dishes but couldn't eat them. He just wanted to send away this great Buddha, Su Yuan, who seemed about to explode at any moment.
So, under Su Yuan's inquisitive gaze, Taotie nodded seriously and said in a deep voice, "Yes. Look at that camera. It's the proof of our great live - streaming cause."
This man and this beast, one wanted to save his life and the other wanted to start the live - streaming. They didn't consider Zhao Zhao's thoughts at all. Well, the situation was urgent and there was no time to think about it.
Zhao Zhao was very dissatisfied with their behavior. She glared at Lu Chukong angrily, "Why did you tell him?!"
Lu Chukong: "..." I didn't want to tell him either, but if I didn't, I'd be dead, sister!
Su Yuan, standing beside them, was hurt by the rejection in Zhao Zhao's words. But he deserved it. He couldn't say anything.
"So why are you here?" After getting angry with Su Yuan on her own, Zhao Zhao softened her heart. She thought her words just now were a bit too harsh and impolite. Now she softened her tone and asked Su Yuan the reason for his appearance.
Su Yuan's eyes flickered. Why was he here... How could he say it?
Should he say that because he had said such words to the little girl in the office, he was worried that the little girl would be sad, so he shamelessly used his dragon scales to keep an eye on Zhao Zhao's movements all the time? And then he heard her phone call with Lu Chukong and came here out of jealousy?
Obviously, he couldn't say that.
Actually, when Su Yuan first came, he stayed quietly in the private room next to the one he had booked, eavesdropping with his extraordinary hearing ability.
The problem was that he came late and missed the part of the discussion between Zhao Zhao and Lu Chukong about the live - streaming. He only heard the second half.
There was a rustling sound in the next private room. Then he heard Lu Chukong's voice, "Are you nervous? It's your first time doing this."
Zhao Zhao's clear and cheerful voice followed, "I'm not nervous. I'm quite looking forward to it."
Su Yuan listened there, feeling extremely uncomfortable. Why did this conversation sound so strange? Nervous about what? And looking forward to what?
Then, after a while, Su Yuan heard Lu Chukong say, "It's so hot. I'll take off my clothes."
Zhao Zhao seemed to be doing something. After a few minutes, she suddenly exclaimed, "It's so big!"
Lu Chukong was extremely proud, "Of course. The feel is not bad, right?"
So big? The feel? Su Yuan crushed a cup. Some inappropriate thoughts flashed through his mind. He tried to force himself to calm down, but then Lu Chukong gave him the final blow.
He said, "I've worked so hard. You have to spend more time with me."
Su Yuan couldn't hold it back anymore. Jealousy and anger burned away his reason. At that moment, he completely forgot that he had already decided to let go of Zhao Zhao.
Obviously, according to this development, even if Zhao Zhao really got together with Lu Chukong, it had nothing to do with him. He had no position or qualification to interfere, but he just couldn't help it.
So there came this embarrassing and socially - awkward scene.
Looking at the things in the private room now, Su Yuan seemed to understand.
The nervousness was about Zhao Zhao's first live - streaming, and the anticipation was also about this. Lu Chukong probably took off his clothes because the temperature in the private room was really high and he was still busy setting up the lights.
As for the feel and spending time with him... Su Yuan didn't know. Anyway, he had already lost face. The Lord Dragon King thought he might as well ask clearly all at once.
With his ice - cold face, he didn't dare to look at Zhao Zhao. Instead, he looked at Lu Chukong beside him and asked, "What kind of feel were you discussing just now?"
Lu Chukong shivered. Recalling his words just now, he wished he could go back in time and sew his mouth shut.
Damn it. He didn't think it was inappropriate when he said it, but now it sounded so improper! Lu Chukong, you're so stupid!
"It's a misunderstanding. We were talking about this. Zhao Zhao just took a few close - up photos with this camera. We were talking about the camera."
So "so big" was also referring to the zoom function of the camera.
Lu Chukong was still thinking about whether there was anything else in his conversation with Zhao Zhao that was easy to misunderstand. Suddenly, he remembered the thing about asking Zhao Zhao to compensate for the talisman papers. Without waiting for the Lord Dragon King to ask, he simply told everything.
Su Yuan was silent after listening, and Zhao Zhao was confused.
Why explain this? She didn't understand.
But she still remembered that her question hadn't been answered, "Su Yuan, you still haven't said why you're here!"
"Ahem..." This was even more embarrassing than being seen rummaging through the trash by the white crane. Su Yuan couldn't think of an explanation with a straight face. He simply perfunctorily said, "It's nothing. I'll leave first. You guys go on with your business."
Then he disappeared on the spot.
"???" Zhao Zhao widened her eyes. What was going on? Just ran away? What on earth was Su Yuan doing?
Being rejected by Su Yuan again and again, Zhao Zhao was really and completely angry this time.
When really angry, Zhao Zhao wouldn't show it. Instead, she looked extremely calm.
She checked the time. It hadn't been delayed for too long. She very naturally took out her phone.
She seemed so calm, but Lu Chukong and Taotie beside her didn't even dare to breathe loudly. They inexplicably felt a sense of pressure.
"Okay, Taotie. Hurry up. The competition is about to start."
Taotie quickly rolled over.
On the other side, Su Yuan still didn't leave. He went back to the next private room.
Then he made a phone call to Fufeng, who was far away in the underworld, "Help me register an account on platform X."
The Lord Dragon King, who was far from ordinary people, didn't know how to operate these fancy online platforms.
