MSSU Chapter 27: Jealousy in the Air

"It's you?"

Luo Feng blinked in slight astonishment, not expecting it to be Qin Su.

"Mr. Luo, where are you going? Shall I give you a ride?" Qin Su asked with a smile.

Luo Feng felt a bit awkward. "We have some grievances between us, and you have even more enmity towards me. Isn't it strange that you suddenly want to give me a ride?"

Luo Feng was puzzled by Qin Su's behavior now.

According to reason, he had ruined her man and humiliated her brother in the Four Major Chambers building, causing her to lose face.

She should hold a grudge against him. Now she was trying to please him. What was going on?

Qin Su smiled faintly. "We only become acquainted through conflict, right? Besides, if it weren't for that incident, I wouldn't have known that Mr. Luo is truly remarkable and comes from such a powerful background."

At this moment, the woman in the distance saw this scene and lost her joy.

"Little Feng Brother, who is this woman? Weren't you here to see me?" The woman got out of the car in anger and quickly walked towards Luo Feng.

"Mr. Luo, please get in the car. I'll give you a ride. Let's put our past grievances behind us and be friends," Qin Su said.

Obviously, Luo Feng could tell that Qin Su was trying to ingratiate herself with him.

To be precise, she wasn't trying to please him but rather the several senior sisters behind him.

After all, Luo Feng had no power, status, or resources. A savvy woman like Qin Su wouldn't spare him a second glance.

"No need, Little Feng Brother, I'll take you," just as Luo Feng was about to refuse, the woman approached with her long, slender legs.

"Who are you?" Luo Feng looked at the woman in front of him with curiosity, instantly captivated by her beauty.

She was even more beautiful than Gu Xuenian.

At this moment, Qin Su paled in comparison to her.

"Could this girl be..." Qin Su's eyes lit up, obviously recognizing the woman's identity.

At this moment, perhaps only Luo Feng didn't know that the woman standing in front of him was the little girl who used to play with him in the deep mountains and forests when they were young.

"Why, Little Feng Brother, don't you recognize me?" Qiu Zhirou was greatly disappointed, unwilling to accept it. "Take another look. Who am I?"

"Surnamed Qiu, didn't I say I would marry you when we were kids? Who am I?" Luo Feng suddenly remembered something, dumbfounded as he examined Qiu Zhirou.

"Surnamed Qiu, and I said I would marry you?" Luo Feng suddenly remembered something and stared dumbfoundedly at Qiu Zhirou.

"You are Zhirou?" Luo Feng was dumbfounded.

In his memory, the girl named Qiu Zhirou was just a small, crying little girl who always followed him and cried loudly.

"Or else?" Qiu Zhirou said unkindly. "You don't even recognize me?"

"Why are you in Longcheng?" Luo Feng was puzzled.

Now it was Qiu Zhirou's turn to be confused, frowning. "Aren't you here today to fulfill the engagement?"

"Yes, how did you know?" Luo Feng asked.

Qiu Zhirou was both angry and amused. "Don't you know the name of the person you're supposed to meet?"

Luo Feng really didn't know. The senior sisters hadn't been specific; they just gave him an address, expecting him to recognize the person when he saw them.

"Damn it, did I meet the wrong person? The person I'm supposed to meet is really you?" Luo Feng suddenly realized, pointing at Qiu Zhirou.

Qiu Zhirou blushed and nodded. "Of course, who else would it be? You still look restless, just like before, and haven't changed a bit."

Luo Feng rubbed his head, evidently still finding it difficult to accept reality.

"Little Feng Brother, you can't go back on your word. You promised to marry me when we were kids," Qiu Zhirou grabbed Luo Feng's arm nervously.

"Uh, well," Luo Feng quickly broke free from Qiu Zhirou's grasp, "do you really believe what we said when we were kids?"

"Zhirou, you're so beautiful and talented, you could easily find someone a thousand times better than me. I'm not worthy of you."

"Little Feng Brother, what are you saying? Since I've decided that you're the one for me, I won't change my mind in this lifetime. If you dare not marry me, I... I'll tell your master and my grandfather that you bullied me!" Qiu Zhirou panicked, her eyes welling up with tears.

Indeed, Qiu Zhirou was still a crybaby, even though she had grown into a graceful young lady.

Luo Feng felt a headache coming on. If he had known that his betrothed was Qiu Zhirou, he would never have come.

"You can leave now. You have nothing to do here," Qiu Zhirou shot a hostile glance at Qin Su.

Qin Su smiled faintly and said to Luo Feng, "Mr. Luo, we'll meet again in the future. Let's talk another day. I won't disturb you today."

With that, Qin Su tactfully left in her car.

"Little Feng Brother, where are you going? Let me take you," Qiu Zhirou said to Luo Feng with a smile.

"Take me to Seventh Senior Sister's house," Luo Feng said, feeling a headache coming on.

...

The Gu Family Villa.

Several senior sisters were waiting in the hall for Luo Feng to return home.

When Luo Feng's voice was heard, Gu Xuening stood up excitedly, ready to greet him.

But the next moment, Gu Xuening's face darkened.

She saw Luo Feng accompanied by an extraordinarily beautiful woman, Qiu Zhirou.

"Xiaofeng, what's going on between you two?" Murong Xiaoxiao looked at Qiu Zhirou with confusion, secretly amazed.

Indeed, she was the daughter of Master Qiu, truly a fallen phoenix in the mortal world.

"You said she hadn't agreed to this engagement, right?" Gu Xuening said unhappily, glaring fiercely at Qiu Zhirou.

Luo Feng smiled bitterly, then explained the situation.

"In short, I met the wrong person," Luo Feng said.

"Hello, Second Senior Sister, Sixth Senior Sister," Qiu Zhirou took the opportunity to step forward and said obediently.

She completely ignored Gu Xuening.

Obviously, the Gu family and the Qiu family were well-connected, and the two women had met before and were very familiar with each other.

"Zhirou, now that you've met, what do you think of my little Feng?" Murong Xiaoxiao smiled and asked.

Qiu Zhirou blushed and nodded shyly.

Seeing this, Murong Xiaoxiao and Shen Wan'er exchanged meaningful smiles.

"Xiaofeng, what do you think? Do you really want her to be your girlfriend?" Gu Xuening pointed at Qiu Zhirou angrily.

She was completely panicked.

Before Luo Feng could speak, Qiu Zhirou firmly held Luo Feng's hand and declared her dominance, "Little Feng Brother has agreed to have me as his girlfriend. After all, he promised to marry me when we were kids."

"Ridiculous," Gu Xuening sneered, "do the words of a child count? If that's the case, then Xiaofeng also said he would marry me when we were kids?"

"What?!" Qiu Zhirou's face changed drastically, looking at Luo Feng in disbelief, "Little Feng Brother, what's going on? Didn't you say you would only marry me?"

Luo Feng felt helpless.

"Seventh Senior Sister, my ancestors, aren't you making trouble for me!"

"Xiaofeng, since you don't want to fulfill the engagement, just tell her. It was just a joke!" Gu Xuening pulled Luo Feng aside and said seriously.

"Little Feng Brother, tell Seventh Senior Sister right away that you will marry me, okay?"

"I'm going crazy," Luo Feng broke free from the two women's entanglement and fled the hall.

"Little Feng Brother, where are you going?" Qiu Zhirou glared angrily at Gu Xuening, "It's all your fault for forcing my Little Feng Brother."

"What do you mean 'it's all your fault'? Also, when did my Little Feng become yours? That's ridiculous."

Seeing this scene, Murong Xiaoxiao and Shen Wan'er both smiled knowingly, tacitly understanding each other.

Murong Xiaoxiao sighed, "I suddenly feel that Xiaofeng's future days won't be easy. We should be nicer to him."
