Chapter 568 - One-sec man

Chapter 568: One-sec man

After receiving a good thrashing from Xiao Luo, Su Canye dashed from the apartment helter-skelter. On the other hand, Zhang Dashan laid on the floor cursing Xiao Luo, for he could not believe that Xiao Luo would actually hit him.

“We had a deal to keep Luo Workshop a secret, but your loose lips just announced to the whole world that you’re the key man. Your credibility has just dipped by half as far as I’m concerned,” Xiao Luo chided his friend, taking the matter quite seriously.

Zhang Dashan rose to explain himself. “Bro, did you not see how aggressive that woman was? She’s in menopause, I tell you! Don’t be afraid of them; let’s just do it,” he said.

Xiao Luo did not bother to talk to him anymore. He decided to head for a shower and planned on going to rest right after.

As he was about to walk off, he saw Zhang Dashan sitting up and smiling to himself dreamily. “Old Xiao, Shen Qingyan really hits all of my checkboxes, and I have a very strong hunch that she is my destiny,” he said.

Xiao Luo looked amused and said, “Didn’t you say the exact same thing about sis Huang.”

“F*ck, this is not the same! I gave up on her a long time ago, and Shen Qingyan is my new love. Look at her curves, she’s full of wild and seductive vibes, and if I can conquer her successfully, I would happily donate half of my life away.” Zhang Dashan said starry-eyed.

“You better stop dreaming and start quitting your bad habits if you are really serious about her!” Xiao Luo cautioned.

“No, no, no!”

Zhang Dashan shook his head and said, “Love is in the eyes of the beholder, and if I happened to be Shen Qingyan’s cup of tea, then there’s no point for me to change.”

Xiao Luo thought that was sensible as he also agreed that one man’s meat is another man’s poison. He was also not sure what Shen Qingyan’s preference was when it came to dating, and maybe she was indeed into a wild maverick like Zhang Dashan. If not, she would not have commented on him with such interest just now.

“You can keep everything but patronizing social escorts. If you are ever caught for doing that again, do not expect me to bail you out,” Xiao Luo said, making it clear that was his last caution, then went to the bathroom to shower.

“F*ck, are we still brothers or what?”

Zhang Dashan got up from the floor.

Then, Xiao Luo’s phone, which was left on the table, vibrated, and the screen lit up–it was a WeChat message.

Oh, dear, it was from lady Su Li.

“Old Xiao, lady Su had sent you a message.” Zhang Dashan yelled.

“Tell me what she had said.”

Xiao Luo opened the bathroom door, and he appeared to have just rinsed his hair and had a towel wrapped around his waist. He cared a lot about how Su Li felt and wanted to reply to her in the shortest possible time. He was also sure that Su Li’s message would not involve personal stuff, so it was quite safe for Zhang Dashan to read.

“F*ck, close your door, you flasher!”

Zhang Dashan rolled his eyes and picked up Xiao Luo’s phone to check the message. “Bro, she had sent you an emoji of an angry ball.”

An emoji of an angry ball?

Xiao Luo was stunned as this did not appear to be what Su Li would do. Could it be that this was really her texting style?

“What do you want to reply? Hurry up!” Zhang Dashan spat.

“Just text her a question mark,” Xiao Luo answered without hesitation.

“Ok.”

Zhang Dashan texted back a question mark immediately.

It did not take too long for Su Li to text back. This time, she sent another emoji–an angry little girl with her teeth clenched and throwing out a punch.

“Bro, she had sent you another angry emoji.” Zhang Dashan yelled again.

Xiao Luo was completely puzzled as he could not figure out what that woman was thinking.

“Just leave it and don’t bother with her. I’ll ask her personally,” Xiao Luo called out to Zang Dashan then closed the door. He continued with his shower and did not wish for Zhang Dashan to be in the text loop.

However, Zhang Dashan did not do as he was told. He was very curious about the reason behind Su Li’s anger, so he replied, “What’s the matter, honey?”

After a while, the phone vibrated again, and Su Li replied.

“You have been leaving me alone and cold all these nights after you returned! Do you still see me as your honey?”

Oh, my God, old Xiao, you bast*rd! How dare you ignore lady Su; you are not a man!

Zhang Dashan felt bad for Su Li, and he cursed at Xiao Luo, then replied, “You’ve misunderstood me, honey. I am just exhausted from the trip and feeling physically drained. How about this, I’ll come right over to your place after showering, and we can have some quality time together, love you.”

That’s all I can do to help you, brother!

Zhang Dashan put down Xiao Luo’s phone and feeling quite satisfied with himself, as he believed he had just done Xiao Luo a great service in resolving his potential marriage crisis.

Back at Su Li’s apartment, Su Li had just finished bathing and entered her bedroom. Her bestie, Shen Qingyan, was looking very amused, staring at Su Li’s phone.

“What’s the matter?” Su Li asked, looking at Shen Qingyan quizzically.

“Li, it never crossed my mind that you have become that close with Xiao Luo.”

Shen Qingyan passed the phone back to Su Li to let her have a look. “I wanted to test Xiao Luo, but he even replied with such mushy words. This tells me that your relationship with him wasn’t that cold after all. Seems to me you guys are pretty lovey-dovey!”

Su Li’s cheeks blushed immediately after reading the texts, and she was confused about why Xiao Luo would say something like that. However, she was aware that she had initiated it, so Xiao Luo’s response was sensible.

“Shen Qingyan, look at what you’ve done!”

She yelled at Shen Qingyan and stormed out of the bedroom. The first thing that came to her mind was to explain to Xiao Luo and prevent the misunderstanding.

At the same time, right after Xiao Luo learned about the texts, he decided to immediately go to Su Li to explain what happened.

Knock! Knock!

They both met in the hallway, and their eyes met.

She was draped in a long snow-white bathrobe, which exposed her long and jade-like legs. Instead of covering it, the bathrobe showed off her bosom well and highlighted her exquisite curves. Xiao Luo was only covered in a white towel below the waist, his toned muscular upper body was fully exposed, and he looked like a work of art. He was lean, but he did not look weak at all. Instead, his body looked combat fit with a dash of wildness.

Why was he dressed like that? Could it be that he really planned to…

Su Li was blushing vividly, and even her ears were burning red now.

Xiao Luo was equally stunned and thought to himself, was she actually serious about what she texted? If not, why would she wear such an inviting outfit to meet him?

“Err, I, mm…” they both mumbled simultaneously.

Finally finding the words, they blurted out at the same time, “You can go first.”

They were stunned again as they spoke in unison. They stared at each other in shock and then smiled awkwardly.

“You should go first,” Xiao Luo said, with a gentlemanly gesture.

Su Li replied, “The WeChat messages were sent by Shen Qingyan, not by me. I was having my bath just now.”

Xiao Luo felt relieved as he was puzzled by her texts, and he knew she could not possibly text like that. He laughed nervously then said, “Actually, the replies did not come from me as well, as I was showering too.”

“Really? Then you should be more careful with your phone next time, don’t let other people use it anyhow.”

“You too.”

They did not exchange any more words and turned to return to their respective apartments.

“Old Xiao, why are you back already? Are you a one-sec man?” Zhang Dashan said, approaching him with a frown. He expected Xiao Luo to have lasted longer with Su Li.

Xiao Luo forced out a smile and asked, “Dashan, look, what’s behind you?”

“Behind me?”

Zhang Dashan turned and realized there was nothing, “There’s nothing, old Xiao, what…”

At this time, Xiao Luo lashed out a heavy kick at his enormous butt, and Zhang Dashan let out a high-pitched scream as he flew across the room and landed on the sofa perfectly. That he flew like a projectile in a perfect arc made his landing more dramatic and funny.
