Chapter 509: 0499 Annoying you is the biggest reason Chapter 509: 0499 Annoying you is the biggest reason Not until her breathing became rapid did the man slowly release her, pressing his forehead against hers, his gaze piercing her hazy eyes.

“What are you thinking about?”

“Hmm?”

Su Ran’s mind was a bit muddled. After a pause, she gently lifted her head, her red lips brushing against the man’s cool, thin lips, their noses aligned.

Fu Qiyuan’s deep eyes darkened slightly, and his low, intoxicating voice resonated softly.

“Even in your sleep, your brows were tightly furrowed. Who has upset you?”

Su Ran’s delicate eyebrows twitched lightly, and her lips parted slightly, her breath fragrant as orchids.

“Really?”

Her slightly parted lips exhaled a faint fragrance, brushing lightly across the man’s lips as they opened and closed.

Fu Qiyuan’s dark eyes were shrouded in gloom, and his exquisite Adam’s apple rolled slightly.

“Yes.”

His voice was deep and a bit hoarse, making Su Ran’s heart skip a beat.

Her thoughts stirred slightly, and she subtly increased the distance between them.

But the man did not give her any chance to escape, tightening his grip around her waist and pulling her back in.

“So, who has upset you?”

Su Ran bit her lip, pausing for a long time before slowly speaking.

“Your good brother.”

Fu Qiyuan’s brows imperceptibly lifted. “Chi Mu?”

Su Ran nodded in his embrace and softly hummed in agreement.

Fu Qiyuan smiled and tightened his hold on her slightly.

“I’ll sort him out for you another day.”

Su Ran looked up at him, seeing the man’s serious face without a hint of jest, and her lips curved slightly.

“You won’t even ask for the reason?”

“Upsetting you is reason enough.”

Snuggled in Fu Qiyuan’s arms, Su Ran sighed softly.

“Fu Qiyuan, you’re so good to me. What will I do if you ever leave me one day?”

She never expected that she, too, would have her moments of insecurity!

A low laugh came from above her head, its tone pleasant and deep.

“Knowing I’m good, just hold on to me tightly and don’t let anyone else get close to me.”

“Hmm… so you won’t leave me, right?”

Fu Qiyuan looked down at her, his gaze crashing into her bright, star-like eyes.

They were filled with his reflection, and he could clearly see his own expression in her eyes.

His heart stirred slightly; this was the first time he had seen a look of unease on her face.

He gently kissed her forehead.

“I won’t leave you, and likewise, don’t leave me. Marry me soon.”

Su Ran’s lips curved, of course, she wouldn’t leave him.

As for marrying him…

You should hurry up and propose!

Blinking her eyes, she buried herself in his embrace and breathed out another sigh.

Fu Qiyuan stroked the back of her head gently, over and over, his motion tender, as if laced with a soothing magic.

“Still worried about your friend?”

Su Ran didn’t deny it. “Mhm.”

“Let them handle their relationship issues. These matters can’t be interfered with too much by outsiders; nobody else can make decisions for them.”

Su Ran was silent for a while before nodding helplessly.

“That’s true.”

Relationship matters were indeed not something she could meddle in too much.

In this world, there were not many things that could truly be felt in the same way by others.

Even though her relationship with Zhichen was very close, she couldn’t make decisions for her.

Su Ran fell into deep thought, still somewhat unable to let go, and she stared at Fu Qiyuan for a long time.

“What’s wrong?”

Fu Qiyuan’s deep voice gently arose as he quietly asked.

Su Ran paused for a moment before slowly speaking.

“Fu Qiyuan, Chi Mu and that woman…”

Fu Qiyuan looked down at her, his brows knitted with worry. Although he wasn’t satisfied with her focusing all her attention on others, he still said,

“Even without Ye Zhichen, that woman would not possibly enter the Chi Family’s door. The Chi Family’s status is not something just anyone can marry into.”

Su Ran pursed her lips, “So if it’s not Zhichen, it will be someone else?”

“Yes, Ye Zhichen wants to marry Chi Mu, doesn’t she? Since that’s the case, this is just as well, also fulfilling her wish.”

Su Ran pulled at her lips, finally letting out a sigh, the worry between her brows deepening.

“But Zhichen marrying Chi Mu… is not happy.”

Chi Mu not loving Zhichen was, to Zhichen, the greatest pain.

Fu Qiyuan slightly frowned, “Marriage is something they have to manage themselves, the rest is their own business.”

Did Chi Mu really have no feelings for Ye Zhichen at all?

Not necessarily!

In the end, Su Ran could only helplessly sigh. She knew Fu Qiyuan was right, but she inevitably still felt worried.

Seeing her slightly furrowed brows, Fu Qiyuan gently kissed her cheek.

“All right, don’t worry too much, I’ll take you out to clear your mind in a few days.”

Su Ran looked up at him, “Okay.”

Fu Qiyuan softly stroked her head, his tone gentle.

“It’s late, go to sleep!”

Su Ran gently rubbed against his chest and nestled into his embrace.

“Mm.”

She had been somewhat nervous, thinking that Fu Qiyuan would be angry at Xiao Yize’s inexplicable behavior tonight and would not easily let her off the hook.

To her surprise, it was easily brushed over!

However, in the end, she was still too naive!

The next morning, just as she and Fu Qiyuan came downstairs, ready for breakfast, they received roses from Xiao Yize.

Looking at the servant holding the vividly red roses, Su Ran couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her lips.

What exactly does this man want to do?

She turned stiffly to look at the man beside her, only to see his eyebrows relaxed but his face incredibly grim.

A chill ran through Su Ran’s heart as she shook her head repeatedly.

“I don’t know what’s happening, nor why he would send me…”

However, before Su Ran could finish speaking, Fu Qiyuan walked directly toward the servant.

The servant, frightened by his menacing aura, didn’t dare to move and could only stare with wide, terrified eyes, standing frozen in place.

The roses in the servant’s arms were suddenly taken away and, under everyone’s gaze, were thrown directly into the trash can.

“…”

“…”

After that, Fu Qiyuan took Su Ran’s hand and went upstairs, leaving the servants to look at each other in bewilderment.

Only when the two of them had completely disappeared did the servants begin to come back to their senses one by one.

“Did I cause trouble?”

The living room fell silent for a moment before the servant who had been holding the roses suddenly spoke up.

“You just realized? How could you accept roses sent by another man to Miss Xiao Ran?”

“Seeing how angry the young master was just now, I wonder if Miss Xiao Ran will be bullied?”

“Bullied? Of course, she’ll be bullied, but it depends on what kind of bullying.”

Someone said meaningfully, and after a moment, another spoke up:

“It’s really hard to imagine, a Banished Immortal like the young master who is so high and abstinent, untouched by worldly desires, how he would look when he bullies someone…”

“Cough cough cough… So you’re saying I did something good? I can’t wait, I need to go and make some soup right away.”
