Chapter 267 - 268: Breaking the Rules (1)
When Lou Xi woke up, she didn’t see Qin Mobai in the room. After showering and coming out of the bathroom, she saw a note on the bedside table from him saying he’d gone out briefly and would be back soon.
She was drying her hair while picking up her phone, intending to call Qin Mobai. Wasn’t she worried he’d get lost in the town?
It seemed a bit unnecessary to worry. Who was Qin Mobai anyway? As if he would get lost.
However, upon unlocking her phone, Lou Xi was surprised to find all the contacts had disappeared. And on closer inspection, the phone didn’t even have a SIM card inserted, so how was she supposed to make a call?
Where was the time to fuss with the phone, so when did the SIM card go missing?
Unable to figure it out, Lou Xi decided not to think about it. It was exhausting. She found that ever since she was with Qin Mobai, she was becoming less inclined to use her brain.
Because, you see, whenever she intended to think, Qin Mobai had already thought it through for her. Really, for whatever matters, she didn’t need to worry.
This kind of life was very good, very nice, very perfect—just like a princess’s life.
But over time, Lou Xi felt like she was useless. What could she offer Qin Mobai?
There’s never a shortage of young and pretty girls in this world, whereas men like Qin Mobai—gentle, considerate, elegant, gentlemanly, wealthy, powerful, and handsome—are rare!
Why does Lou Xi always have this feeling that one day she’ll lose Qin Mobai?
"Surely it’s because I’m still not strong enough!" Lou Xi nodded, quite satisfied with her own conclusion.
However, what she wasn’t satisfied with was that she was still studying, and her internship was as Qin Mobai’s assistant, feeling like she could never escape his control.
If she wanted to become strong, then surely she couldn’t stay by Qin Mobai’s side.
But she simply wanted to stay by Qin Mobai’s side for now; she had this urge to be with him twenty-four hours a day.
"So clingy!" Lou Xi shook her head, feeling a bit tipsy, lost in her random thoughts, talking to herself.
"Clingy to whom?" The suite door opened, and Qin Mobai returned from outside, carrying a bag in his hand.
Lou Xi put down her towel and, upon hearing Qin Mobai’s voice, ran towards him without even putting on shoes.
This was probably what it looked like to see someone with joy, just like Lou Xi!
Qin Mobai squinted his eyes slightly, watching the girl in his shirt running towards him.
His thoughts were all over the place.
"Why aren’t you wearing your own clothes? Can’t be without me?" Qin Mobai’s gaze darkened slightly as he placed the bag on the coffee table and turned to look at Lou Xi.
"Nonsense!" Lou Xi blushed and turned around to leave.
