Marry Me Quick novel Chapter 803

Chapter 803 I Lied to You

Over the years, Bai Yunan had consistently acted in this way, making brief appearances before disappearing for a while.

He had been coming and going for the previous two years, which was accepted as normal.

Bai Yunan lowered his head to peel the crawfish, eating a few himself before starting to peel for Lu Qingyou.

As he slowly and leisurely peeled crawfish, he casually asked her, "How's work been recently?"

"It-it's been good." She stumbled nervously when he inquired about her job.

There was a hint of flash in Bai Yunan's eyes as he lowered them. Then, with calm, he replied, "Oh, yeah? I'll drive you to work tomorrow since I'll be free."

After a brief change in expression, Lu Qingyou solemnly replied, "No, I'm fine. Now that you have some spare time, try to get some rest.

Bai Yunan flatly rejected her, saying, "I really don't mind."

"Alright then." Lu Qingyou knew that once Bai Yunan made a decision, it was difficult to change his mind, so she simply agreed.

She could just have him drop her off at the company's entrance, and then she would send him away when she got off the car. She would wander around for a while and then go back.

He couldn't possibly follow her the whole day, right?

The more she thought about it, the more feasible this plan seemed. However, she didn't notice Bai Yunan's face becoming increasingly cold.

Around 10.00PM., Cheng Qiulu returned home and entered her own bedroom, only to find Lu Qingyou lying on her bed playing with her phone. Cheng Qiulu casually threw her bag aside and asked Lu Qingyou, "Why are you sleeping in my room again? Is Yunan here?"

"Yes." Lu Qingyou was reading a comic book, her eyes glued to her phone, not even looking at Cheng Qiulu.

Cheng Qiulu tied her hair up with a hair tie, sat down by the bed, and curiously questioned, "Qingyou, why do I feel like Yunan wants to pursue you? Otherwise, why would he come to our home to sleep on your bed rather than go home?"

"If that's what he wants to do, what can I do?" Lu Qingyou didn't even give Cheng Qiulu a passing glance because her phone had her full attention.

Cheng Qiulu was annoyed with her response and snatched her phone away, tossing it aside. She held onto Lu Qingyou's shoulders and seriously asked, "Why is he sleeping on your bed and not mine? I'm his biological sister. What do you think this means?"

Lu Qingyou's mind went blank for a moment before mumbling. "What?"

"That means you are more important than his own sister!" Cheng Qiulu said each word with emphasis.

"Stop being silly. It's no big deal. I'll let him sleep on your bed next time." Lu Qingyou brushed Cheng Qiulu's hand away, grabbed a nearby pillow, and hugged it in her arms, sounding a bit disappointed. "How important can I be to him? In his eyes, I'm the same as you, so he only sees me as his sister."

"He hasn't ever shown me, his own sister, the same level of affection as he does for you."

Cheng Qiulu had recently been getting along well with a guy from the research institute, and Lu Qingyou thought she was just being foolish because she was so in love.

Lu Qingyou became irritated and exclaimed, "Go take a shower already."

"Alright, alright. I'll stop talking." Cheng Qiulu walked towards the bathroom while secretly scheming in her mind.

Lu Qingyou felt a sense of melancholy rising inside of her as she lay on the bed listening to Cheng Qiulu singing in the shower.

Cheng Qiulu had a crush on her cousin Lu Shichu before this, but she had been turned down, and she felt dejected for a while. She did, however, meet someone from the research institute who pursued her not long after.

It was rumored that he was Lu Shichu's assistant.

The two of them had recently begun dating, and things were going well.

As for her, she had just lost her job, and things were not going well in her love life.

…

The next morning, Cheng Qiulu made breakfast.

Cheng Qiulu's family ran a noodle shop, and her cooking skills were highly praised by her father. Everything she made was delicious.

For breakfast, she cooked noodles and made two side dishes.

And Lu Qingyou ate with gusto.

Just as Cheng Qiulu finished eating, the phone rang.
