Chapter 514 - 512: Just This Once, No Next Time_1

Chapter 514: Chapter 512: Just This Once, No Next Time_1

The car was very quiet, with four people including the driver, no one spoke a word, each lost in their own thoughts.

Su Yanqin contemplated for a while, then suddenly lowered his head and chuckled softly, "Zisu... you and Xiaoxiao really took me by surprise..."

He had never imagined that the two of them would end up together.

There hadn’t been any signs beforehand, and all of a sudden, they were a couple.

It happened so quickly that he was caught off guard, unsure how to adjust his attitude towards Xiaoxiao, so he chose to remain silent for the time being.

While in Canada, many mistook his feelings for Xiaoxiao, and indeed, he had feelings for her at the time, but he never confessed to her in time, and now it was too late...

Mu Zisu curled the corners of his lips slightly, "It was meant to surprise you..." To be honest, he was surprised at first too, but now he had grown accustomed to his relationship with Xiaoxiao.

Upon hearing Mu Zisu’s words, Su Yanqin couldn’t help but smile bitterly in his heart. It was indeed a huge surprise.

Su Yanruo heard the conversation between the two men and felt a wave of sadness, her eyes drooping down.

During the evening banquet, Su Yanruo drank a lot. No matter how many times Su Yanqin gave her meaningful looks, both overtly and covertly, she pretended not to see and kept toasting with the partners.

She was in a bad mood, so she resorted to alcohol to ease her troubled heart.

The cooperation discussed tonight was substantial - it was about arms.

The guests who came were all significant figures; otherwise, Mu Zisu wouldn’t have personally taken part in the negotiations.

Since Su Yanruo accompanied Mu Zisu, most people assumed she was Mu Zisu’s female companion, hence everyone at the table had toasted with her. She didn’t put on airs; she accepted every drink and was praised by everyone for Mu Zisu’s good taste.

As for the misunderstanding, Mu Zisu couldn’t be bothered to explain; he didn’t feel the need to explain too much of his personal matters to them.

However, his lack of explanation brought Su Yanruo a bright hope and extravagant expectations; she even began to doubt whether Mu Zisu harbored feelings for her.

So, as the dinner ended, she could no longer restrain the love in her heart, and she hugged Mu Zisu and burst into tears, acting out of character.

She wasn’t drunk; she was completely sober and knew what she was doing. She couldn’t stand the tender expression he wore when embracing Xiaoxiao; she couldn’t bear the thought of him being with her!

"Brother Zisu, you like me, don’t you?" Her charming eyes brimmed with tears as she looked at Mu Zisu with a face full of anticipation.

"Ruoruo... don’t be like this, let’s go back first, okay?" Su Yanqin was at her side, trying to pull her away from Mu Zisu’s body.

But Su Yanruo seemed not to hear him, clinging tightly to Mu Zisu’s waist, lifting her head to look into his inscrutable eyes.

If it were anyone else, Mu Zisu would have shaken them off by now, but she was different; although his feelings for her were not romantic, he had always treated her like a sister.

He sighed softly, "Yanruo, let’s talk about this question back home..." This was a hotel, and it wouldn’t be good to attract too much attention.

"No... I’m not going back, I want you to say it here. Brother Zisu, you like me. Tell me, say that you like me..." Her eyes filled with even greater hope, Mu Zisu not pushing her away was her greatest expectation.

"Ruoruo... be good, no more fuss, let’s go back first..." Su Yanqin was also trying hard to comfort Su Yanruo.

Seeing Su Yanruo’s expression, Mu Zisu’s brow furrowed even more deeply.

He gently supported Su Yanruo’s shoulders, looking into her eyes as if offering comfort and making a statement, "Yanruo, just like Shanshan and Qiqi, you are my sister..."

The hopeful expression in Su Yanruo’s eyes shattered in an instant, and with it, her emotions also collapsed, "No! I don’t want to be the sister... I don’t want to be the sister!" She clutched Mu Zisu’s hand even tighter, as if determined never to let go even in death.

Su Yanruo, the daughter of Su Yun, was born in Canada. Since her childhood, she had held Mu Zisu in high regard, and after finding out they were not related by blood, her admiration for him changed. At some point, it turned into romantic feelings.

Although Mu Zisu was cold, especially towards girls, he was different towards her. At least, he would smile at her, teach her things; She thought that he had special feelings for her, that he liked her too. But when she had mustered the courage to pursue him, she was mercilessly rejected by him.

Five years ago—he had said the same thing, that he only saw her as a sister!

But that’s not what she wanted!

She didn’t want to be his sister!

"Why don’t you consider her your sister, why don’t you think of Na Xiaoxiao as your sister, can’t you just think of her as your sister?" Su Yanruo clung to Mu Zisu, her words incoherent, sobbing inconsolably.

Su Yanqin sighed from the sidelines, feeling relieved that everyone had left; otherwise, witnessing such a scene would undoubtedly lead to wild speculation.

"Zisu... Yanruo is emotionally unstable right now. Let’s take her back first..." Staying here was not helping matters.

Mu Zisu let out a heavy sigh, left with no choice but to hoist the clinging Su Yanruo up in his arms and walked towards the door.

Su Yanruo suddenly calmed down, holding onto Mu Zisu’s neck tightly, as if she had found the greatest comfort.

They took the elevator straight to the underground parking lot. Upon reaching the car, Mu Zisu had intended to put Su Yanruo inside first, but she clung to his neck so tightly she wouldn’t let go.

"Yanruo, let go..." Mu Zisu’s voice now carried a hint of chill.

"I won’t let go, I don’t want to..." Su Yanruo shook her head stubbornly, appearing as if the alcohol had finally hit her, somewhat woozy.

"Zisu, I think she’s drunk..." Su Yanqin uttered helplessly with a light chuckle.

Mu Zisu, with furrowed brows, had no choice but to seat Su Yanruo in the car with him.

"Su Yanruo, this is a one-time exception, not to be repeated..." He didn’t care whether she could understand or comprehend at the moment, uttering these words in a detached tone.

Upon hearing this, Su Yanruo didn’t relax her hold but instead clutched even tighter.

The entire way, Su Yanruo was exceptionally quiet, as if asleep, but only she knew with her eyes closed, she was fully awake.

Yet she didn’t want to let go, she was unwilling to let go; she wanted him to hold her like this forever...

However, all roads eventually lead to an end, and the car slowly entered the Mu Family mansion.

When they stopped in front of the main house, Su Yanruo gripped Mu Zisu’s arm even tighter as if afraid he would cast her aside.

But this time, Mu Zisu, unusually silent, carried her out of the car and strode towards the main building.

This scene utterly astonished the assembly of servants; their mouths agape so wide they could have fit an egg inside—
