Bo Hancheng continued, “Did you escape from the asylum?” He seemed to have been enlightened.
Does she think I did not recognize her? If I did not, why would I have brought her away with me?
Luo Zheng’s face grew sullen, finding it impossible for them to continue talking to each other. She felt a strong urge to bite him to death... However she urged herself to calm down and give in to him because he was her Mr. Bodyguard. Hence, she decided to take it lying down!
Luo Zheng forced a lopsided smile and explained conscientiously, “Brother, I’m not mentally ill. I didn’t escape from the asylum! I just want to know you better... ”
“Is this the reason you decided to cause a stir at the birthday party?”
Bo Hancheng questioned her in contempt.
Luo Zheng’s smile stiffened again. She took a deep breath and decided to ignore his animosity. Trying to remain composed, she said, “Brother, that’s not important! What’s important now is for us to get to know each other all over again... ”
She paused and looked up, her eyes appearing like shiny stars. “Hello, Bo Hancheng, I’m Luo Zheng!”
“You’re from the Luo Family?”
Bo Hancheng frowned, rather surprised to hear that.
Her name reminded him of the Luo Family.
Luo Zheng answered truthfully, “Strictly speaking, I’m only half a Luo. Old Mr. Luo is my maternal grandfather... ”
The point is, there was still tension between her and the Luo Family and that was absolutely pathetic!
Bo Hancheng listened to her explanation and immediately understood her identity.
However, he still had some doubts and qualms.
Why did she incur my wrath and cause a stir despite it being a banquet held by the Luo Family? That is strange... Does she have a crush on me? However, he immediately dismissed that idea because there seemed to be no affection in her eyes at all.
She seemed to be staring at someone vicariously through him.
The realization made him feel rather displeased.
“What would the Luo Family think if they were to find out that their banquet had been ruined by their own family member?”
Bo Hancheng got up slowly and seemed to be making that remark on purpose.
Luo Zheng choked and began to feel a little agonized. Why is Mr. Bodyguard acting differently from the previous lifetime... In the previous lifetime, he was quiet and reserved but he loved me and gave up everything for me, including his life.
Mr. Bodyguard is still as quiet as ever but he is so cold to me! How heartbreaking!
“I’ll just apologize to them later.”
Luo Zheng sounded absolutely dejected, feeling a little aggrieved.
I am upset, I am upset, I am just upset.
I only rushed onto the stage and caused a stir because I was too agitated... Yet, Mr. Bodyguard did not even comfort me. In fact, he even mocked me!
“Little imp, I don’t know you.”
Bo Hancheng said coldly, finding it unnecessary to stay any longer. He then turned around and left.
“Brother, wait a minute!”
Luo Zheng hurriedly rushed forth to hug his arm before saying coaxingly, “Brother, we were strangers in the past but don’t we know each other now? Don’t be in such a hurry to leave. We can talk about life and our ambitions... ”
“I don’t think an underage girl like you can talk about life and ambitions.”
Bo Hancheng retracted his arm, not wanting to be in contact with Luo Zheng.
There were very few who dared to touch him again and again. Although he did not exactly detest it, he did not like it!
“So what if I’m underage? Brother, you’ve got a wrong mindset. How could you look down on underage youths?”
I finally managed to find Mr. Bodyguard, but the time is not right. He actually thinks I am a lunatic!
Hence, Luo Zheng was bent on getting into his good books and making him change his opinion of her... It would be best if they became friends. Once they did, she would be able to reach her goals.
“Brother, tell me, what do you want to chat about? I can accompany you, no matter what it is!”
