Love Gambit: The Untouchable Tycoon is So Dangerous-Chapter 42: She’s Actually With an Older Man?

Lou Xining stayed silent.

This statement...so domineering...

Ran Xiangsi couldn’t help but twitch the corner of her eye upon hearing it.

What on earth is this guy up to?

He’s calling her his wife left and right, but the truth is they have absolutely no relationship, okay?

He’s speaking as if it were true.

The atmosphere grew a bit awkward, but Xing Chen acted as if nothing had happened, elegantly sipping from the teacup on the table.

Lou Xining opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by a phone call before he could say anything.

He looked down at his phone and his brow furrowed, "I need to take this call."

Xing Chen slightly nodded, and only then did Lou Xining get up and walk out the door.

Meanwhile, Ran Xiangsi had almost finished eating. As she put down her chopsticks, her phone vibrated.

She took it out and saw it was a message from her good friend, Chu Xiaoge.

[Xiangsi, did you mess with that lunatic Ding Jia? She posted your photo on the campus BBS, spreading rumors that you’re being kept by an old man!]

Attached was a screenshot of the BBS site.

Ran Xiangsi’s heart skipped a beat at the sight of it. She quickly opened it to check.

Sure enough, Ding Jia had posted the thread, featuring a photo of her leaving the hotel with Xing Chen. It captured a side profile of her, while Xing Chen’s image was blurry, only discernible as a man.

The content was even more fabricated, alleging that she was seeing an older man?

While she was still in shock, another message from Chu Xiaoge pinged.

[OMG, get out of there now; the whole school is talking about it!]

[I just asked the moderator to take down the post, but he said it’s an announcement that more students need to know the truth! I bet he’s been bribed by Ding Jia!]

As Ran Xiangsi was contemplating, messages from Chu Xiaoge came through one after another in quick succession.

Her hand shook abruptly. Ran Xiangsi steadied herself, her fingers quickly tapping the screen. She soon composed a response and sent it back.

[Don’t panic, I’m good at dealing with black posts.] freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

[I’m outside, we’ll talk in a bit]

She sent two messages and then put down her phone, turning back to Xing Chen, "I’m full, thank you for dinner. From now on...even if we run into each other, let’s not say hello, goodbye."

With that, she picked up her cute handbag and was about to leave.

However, just as she was leaving, a strong grip caught hold of her hand.

Instinctively, Ran Xiangsi turned back, meeting those deep, unfathomable black eyes of Xing Chen.

"What are you doing?" She frowned in confusion.

Xing Chen was also observing her sudden urgency to leave, his grasp on her slender wrist showing no sign of loosening. "Even if we run into each other, let’s not say hello?"

Does she really want to have nothing to do with him?

Does she really dislike him that much??

His pitch-black eyes were filled with displeasure.

Ran Xiangsi struggled, but found she couldn’t break free from his hold.

"What else can we do? We’re even now!"

Hearing her speak so casually, as if eager to distance herself from him, Xing Chen’s eyes narrowed, his lips pressing together tightly, his tone somewhat cold, "The act isn’t over yet."

He was reminding her that Lou Xining would be back soon. If she left halfway, it would ruin this perfect performance.

But at that moment, Ran Xiangsi was in such a hurry she could hardly think about keeping up the act. She just wanted to rush back and secretly delete the scandalous BBS post!

So she didn’t care about the act at all, forcefully trying to shake off Xing Chen’s hand, "You’re crazy! The gun is in my hands now, what can you do? I’m done acting!"
