Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 704 - 673: A Son of the Zhan Family Comes of Age
Xia Luo took out all the videotapes and photos, and she and Zhan Yunxiao analyzed them all morning, but couldn’t find anything.
"Forget it, let’s stop watching for now." Zhan Yunxiao turned off the TV.
Xia Luo’s eyes hurt, and she rubbed her eyes, then Zhan Yunxiao switched off the TV.
"If we watch a bit longer, maybe we’ll find some clues."
"We’ve been watching all morning without any clue, so it’s no use continuing." Zhan Yunxiao said.
Xia Luo sighed and said softly, "Actually, I didn’t live with him for long, just so I could play the role of an orphan better. Besides providing some necessary living expenses, my mother always kept me outside to fend for myself. After my mother died, Mu Chen took me back to live with him for more than a year. But he quickly kicked me out again, stopped giving me money, and let me wander until I came to you."
"No wonder you play the role of an orphan so well. I didn’t have a single doubt." Zhan Yunxiao chuckled.
But Xia Luo asked him in confusion, "Did you really not have any doubts at that time?"
Actually, she felt like she had a lot of flaws, so why didn’t he have any doubts?
"No." Zhan Yunxiao said harshly.
Xia Luo murmured, "But I felt like I had a lot of flaws at that time. I thought you might have had some doubts and lived in fear of you seeing through me every day."
Zhan Yunxiao: "..."
If he were to review it now, there certainly were many things worth suspecting.
If it had been someone else, he would probably have doubted them already.
So why didn’t he doubt Xia Luo?
He thinks it’s related to how he liked Xia Luo since they were young.
Although that affection at the time wasn’t mixed with romantic feelings.
But precisely because of this, it was more direct and pure.
As they say, love at first sight; he inexplicably liked her from the first time he saw Xia Luo.
Even if she was arrogant, with a princess-like temper, he found it adorable and not pretentious.
When they met again, she wasn’t the perfect girl he had imagined.
In fact, upon careful reflection, her previous personality fit the type of person he disliked the most.
But so what?
He just liked her, no matter how bad she was, his heart would still beat for her.
"Damn, I can’t get up."
Xia Luo wanted to stand up, but as she moved, she found she couldn’t get up, and cursed awkwardly.
Zhan Yunxiao snapped back to reality and frowned at her.
He stood up first and then offered his hand to her, "I’ll help you up."
"No need, I can do it myself."
Xia Luo looked at the hand he offered and stubbornly insisted on getting up by herself.
Zhan Yunxiao was annoyed again.
What’s the harm in letting him help?
Could it be that after what happened last night, she won’t even let him touch her?
Angry inside, his face turned sullen.
Armed crossed, he stood aside, waiting to see her ask for his help.
Doesn’t want him to touch her?
Isn’t she stubborn and strong-willed?
He was curious to see what she would do if she couldn’t get up.
"Stop looking at me?"
Xia Luo glanced up and saw Zhan Yunxiao looking at her with such a gaze, her legs went weak, and she couldn’t help but complain.
Zhan Yunxiao: "You worry about yourself getting up. Why would it matter if I look at you? My gaze isn’t a heavy object, it can’t weigh you down."
"But it’s weird when you look at me like that," Xia Luo said.
Zhan Yunxiao replied, "It’s because you have a guilty conscience that you find it weird!"
"Guilty conscience? What do I have to feel guilty about?"
Just after an afternoon, Xia Luo had already forgotten she had willingly thrown herself at Zhan Yunxiao.
Zhan Yunxiao snorted coldly, leaned down and reminded her, "Have you forgotten so soon how you threw yourself at me last night? Aren’t you planning to give me an explanation for that?"
Xia Luo: "..."
Her eyes darted around in a panic, not daring to meet his gaze.
"Explain what? You didn’t suffer any loss."
She muttered softly in complaint.
Zhan Yunxiao was fuming when he heard this, grabbing her chin to lift her face, "Do you think with a face like mine, I lack women?"
Xia Luo looked at Zhan Yunxiao’s handsome face, perfect from every angle.
It had both the charm of youth and the stability of a mature man.
The combination was seamless, with no sense of incongruity.
Such a face would be popular with women anywhere; how could he possibly lack women?
