Love You Till the End-Chapter 913 - 912: Failed Associations

When Shi Aoju walked in, he placed Su Jiuyi’s hand on his arm. Su Jiuyi was initially puzzled, but then suddenly understood.

Because she didn’t often attend such occasions, she really didn’t understand much about those party etiquettes.

"Just try not to talk too much later," Shi Aoju whispered in her ear. To others, the gesture might have seemed somewhat intimate.

"Okay," she nodded in agreement.

Although she knew Shi Aoju brought her just to play the role of a temporary partner, she still felt a bit uncomfortable.

She was also quite worried, worried about running into Su Zhenxiong and Zhao Shuya here, or those who loved to see her make a fool of herself.

But on second thought, since she and Shi Aoju were connected through a case, and since he said he would protect her safety, he probably wouldn’t stand by and watch people humiliate her.

After all, he was a domineering man; just by keeping a cold silence, his aura alone could make many people wary.

The two of them walked together to the fountain where an elderly man was chatting with someone else. He had a very kindly face, and it was hard to imagine he was a legendary business tycoon in his younger days.

"Uncle Qian," Shi Aoju stepped forward to greet, nodding politely.

Old Sir Qian was very glad to see him, a smile reaching his eyes: "It’s been so long since I’ve seen you, you never come to visit Uncle."

"Recently, there have been many things going on with the company, which delayed me, please forgive me, Uncle,"

The other laughed heartily and said, "I know you’re busy, don’t worry, Uncle’s health is great, you can focus on your work." He then noticed Su Jiuyi standing beside and asked, "And this is?"

Su Jiuyi glanced lightly at Shi Aoju, whose expression hadn’t changed, and she obediently replied, "Hello, Uncle, my name is Su Jiuyi."

"Young lady, you look lovely," Old Sir Qian continued smiling, "See if there’s anything you like to eat here, help yourself, no need to stand on ceremony."

"Thank you, Uncle."

At this moment, a slender woman in a turquoise gown, with a delicate face, stepped from behind the fountain and walked to Uncle Qian’s side, looking at Shi Aoju with a slightly playful tone: "Brother Jue, you haven’t come to see me in so long."

For some reason, Su Jiuyi felt the arm she was holding onto became momentarily stiff.

"Yixun, your brother is busy with work, he’s not like you, with nothing to do all day," though these were words of blame, the expression on the old man’s face remained kindly.

Such a considerate old man... 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Will Shi Aoju be like this when he gets older?

Su Jiuyi lifted her face to carefully study Shi Aoju’s profile for a couple of seconds.

... failed to imagine it.

"He didn’t even reply to the messages I sent!" she pouted, complaining.

Su Jiuyi started to understand the real reason why Shi Aoju brought her, thinking this man is really devious, causing trouble without paying the price.

She was just about to discreetly withdraw her hand from Shi Aoju’s elbow, but before she could, Qian Yixun noticed something.

"Who are you?" She frowned, her face full of displeasure.

In her twenty-one years of life, this was the first time Su Jiuyi didn’t know how to greet someone.
