Chapter 22 Is that a hickey?
Li Xiaolu was surrounded by many young ladies and women's from the rich family. They asked her various questions about her life in State, her beauty and many more. She politely replied everyone while Yu Rushi stood next to her pretending to be a loving and caring mother.
She knew it was just to keep an eye on her and see was she is saying.
"Miss Li, you are truly very beautiful and I can say this dress is one of a kind. So can you tell us where did you buy it? Which brand it is?" the young lady questioned.
"Umm... it's a new designer called LX. I just happened to accidentely met her and bought this dress... " she replied politely.
"Oh... A new designer? It is really a beautiful dress... " she spoke truly surprised.
After some time Li Xiaolu excused herself ,took a glass of juice and stood at a corner. She was glad that everything went according to her plan.
She remembered disguising herself as a male worker and working on the chandelier. She was extremely cautious while doing it because if her plan failed, others might get hurt and she didn't want that to happen.
Her only goal was make the Li couple a little frightened and take advantage of that situation to expose her identity. She also wanted to thank her sister, who got these people to slander her.
It was like a helping hand to her plan and everything was executed properly. While working with the chandelier, Li Xiaolu felt that she was a little cruel but then she realized that it was nothing compared to burning a person alive. She hardened her heart and did her work.
Not only her identity got exposed but she also promoted her future designing store. Hence, she was at a complete bliss. Her happiness was doubled and she smirked when she saw Li Roulan and Chen Yufan walking towards her.
Li Roulan wanted nothing more than to tear this bitch's face apart but she couldn't. She clenched her fist and put on an innocent smile as she walked towards Li Xiaolu.
Chen Yufan was glad that he could finally see this ravishing beauty up close. He wanted to talk to Li Xiaolu but he knew that infront of Li Roulan he shouldn't say something which would leave them to be suspicious of him.
He had concealed his personality from them for so many years so he cannot afford to ruin it. He wanted to enjoy both the beauties....
"Elder Sister.... " Li Roulan greeted cheerfully as she held on to Li Xiaolu's arm. Li Xiaolu almost gagged when she heard 'elder sister'
The feeling of anger, fury, betrayal surged inside of her when she looked at the two people standing in front of her. These were the two whom she loved the most and trusted blindly. But what did she get in return?
A torcherous death....
Her hands trembled a little when she forced herself to calm down. She put on a sweet smile on her face, " Roulan, Chen Yufan... "
"Elder sister I am so happy... Now finally you can live freely.... "
"I am happy too... " Li Xiaolu said indifferently.
"I never knew my girlfriend looked so pretty... " Chen Yufan praised looking at her.
She didn't wanted them to suspect her so she politely replied, "Thank you... "
Chen Yufan felt something was wrong with Li Xiaolu. Before, whenever he used to speak or even smile at her she would always look him with lovestuck eyes. But, now even when he praised her she was so indifferent.
She was looking at him just like she was looking at a stranger. He didn't know why but he felt a certain unease in his heart. Li Roulan also noticed the same thing when something popped in her mind.
" Elder Sister there is really nothing going on between me and Brother Yufan. I asked him to pretend to be my boyfriend so that no male suitors would try to come near me. I hope you won't be angry eldest sister? " Li Roulan asked sweetly thinking this must be the reason for Li Xiaolu's behavior.
"Yes, Xiaolu I am only pretending to be her boyfriend. Please don't be angry.... You know how entertainment industry is.... So to protect her I did this.... " Chen Yufan said.
"Yes Elder sister... He did it only to protect me. He thought you would be so worried if anything happens to me so he agreed.... "
"Yes Xiaolu I only did this for you.... " Chan Yufan said pretending to be a good and loving boyfriend.
Li Xiaolu calmly looked at two clowns who were dancing on the same tune. If it was before, then she would have been immediately fooled but now..... no chance.
"Ofcourse I am not angry.... If it to protect Roulan then you can pretend to be her boyfriend.... " she said smiling.
"Really elder sister? " Li Roulan asked.
She nodded. Li Roulan immediately wrapped her hands aroung Chen Yufan's arm. "Thank you so much elder sister.... You are the best sister ever.... "
Looking at the smiling Li Xiaolu, Li Roulan laughed in her heart. Tsk.... Tsk.... Xiaolu you are a fool and you always will be a fool. See, right in front of your face I am holding Brother Yufan's arms...
Li Xiaolu knew what Roulan was thinking. She sneered in her heart. Laugh all you want roulan.... but we will she who will have the last laugh?
Suddenly she noticed something and her eyebrows furrowed. " Roulan? " she called.
"Yes elder sister? "
"Is that a hickey on your neck? "
