Song Lianhe was incredibly smug.
Little did she know, that promise to stay by her side would truly cost Ah Yu his entire life…
Song Lianhe immediately beamed. "My apologies, Mr. Su. I'd be willing to part with him, but Ah Yu insists on staying with me. What can I do?"
Ah Yu played along, nodding. "I thank you for your kind offer, Mr. Su, but I must repay the Young Miss for her kindness. I hope you can understand."
Su Huaqing smiled magnanimously. "So be it. A gentleman does not take what another holds dear."
He then turned to Song Lianhe. "But do you have something against me, Second Young Miss? You used to call me 'Young Master,' but now it's nothing but 'Mr. Su.' It's not as familiar as how you are with Rongbai. It sounds so terribly distant."
Song Lianhe offered a smile that didn't reach her eyes. 'I can't just come right out and say I simply hate you, can I?'
