"What? Is he a white lotus in your heart?" After hearing Ling Fan's answer, Chu Xiao deliberately glanced at him and raised his eyebrows.
Of course, he knew that the word "white lotus" was not a good word for Ling Fan, but he couldn't help wanting to tease him.
And…He also wanted to know what kind of conflicts were between Ling Fan and Luo Li.
If it was just the relationship between a teacher and a student, Ling Fan would not have appeared at the Lan family's shareholders meeting. It was even more impossible for him to stop Luo Li from taking over the position of CEO with such a forceful attitude…let alone telling everyone he was ‘Fan Ming’.
Of course, this little bastard probably did it for him.
However…Ling Fan should not like Luo Li very much.
Chu Xiao was right about this.
"Ahem, white lotus...It's just a nickname. As for what it stands for, it's never a compliment," Ling Fan coughed lightly and said.
"Then what does it mean?" Chu Xiao picked his eyebrow.
"Uh...Probably means that someone appears pure, but actually quite dark-hearted," Ling Fan explained. To put it straight, it was hypocritical.
Hearing Ling Fan's explanation, Chu Xiao finally couldn't help laughing.
"Haha, you are not that stupid…" That time when Luo Li took Chen Feng to Ling Fan's house and he realized that Luo Li was Ling Fan's head teacher.
Luo Li had a lot of tricks and harbored evil intentions. He originally wanted to remind Ling Fan to be careful, but... Now it seemed that Ling Fan should have known Luo Li's personality long ago.
So…he wasn't too stupid.
Ahem, wait!
If Ling Fan was stupid, there wouldn't be such an investment genius like 'Fan Ming' who appeared out of nowhere, and…he wouldn't fall in love with him either.
Therefore, this guy had been acting dumb to pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger!
Especially the month he lived in Ling Fan's house.
Thinking of this, Chu Xiao couldn't help throwing a hard stare at Ling Fan.
Seeing that Chu Xiao suddenly glared at him, Ling Fan was confused…
Was it because of Luo Li?
"Ahem, well, you know, I always keep important numbers in heart. Since Luo Li is an unimportant person, I just saved his number under a random name." As if he was afraid that Chu Xiao would misunderstand something, Ling Fan quickly explained, after a little pause, he added, "And you saw it that day during the meeting. We had an issue."
Thinking about the misunderstanding, Ling Fan thought of another question…
Misunderstanding?
Why should he be worried that Chu Xiao would misunderstand them? He should be the one that misunderstood him and Luo Li, right?
Originally, he deliberately teased Ling Fan, of course Chu Xiao wouldn't misunderstand. However, when he heard Ling Fan's words, Chu Xiao could not help feeling worried now.
"After you stopped his plan last time, wouldn't there be any problems in school?" Chu Xiao frowned while asking concernedly.
Outside school, of course, he wouldn't be worried that Luo Li would do anything bad to Ling Fan. After all, Ling Fan's strength was there. Moreover, even he would never allow anyone to hurt Ling Fan.
But…
Ling Fan's true identity was still a student after all, and this guy should have to take the college entrance examination. In school, Luo Li was his head teacher. If he really used this identity to do something behind, it would be a little hard to defend…
"Don't worry, there won't be any problems, and I will be careful," Ling Fan said with a smile.
In this life, after he was reborn, he had always stayed at a certain distance from Luo Li, the guy who had caused all his tragedies in his previous life. From the moment he found out that Luo Li was the one who designed to kill him in his last life and even put him in prison, he became more careful with this person.
Therefore, he would not let Luo Li get a chance.
What's more…Luo Li was even more dark-hearted than Chu Xiao thought.
Previously, when he was just a stupid and naive useless chess piece, Luo Li could have planned a car accident to kill him after his value was used up. Of course, in the end, he was fated not to die, but still had spent ten years in prison.
In this life, if Luo Li didn't want to kill him, then it would be real xuanhuan…
Anyway, he was also the one he had yearned for in his previous life, and thanks to Luo Li’s cruelty in his previous life that made him grow up and let him own Chu Xiao now. Therefore, in this life, if Luo Li could accept reality peacefully and be a teacher obediently, he wouldn't do anything excessive to him.
But if he asked for his death, then don't blame him...
As he thought so to himself, a trace of killing intent flashed across Ling Fan's eyes.
“What are you thinking about?” Noticing the strange color in Ling Fan's eyes, Chu Xiao asked.
At the same time, he became more interested in the grudge between Ling Fan and Luo Li. It was obviously not easy to let Ling Fan show such an expression.
However, out of respect for Ling Fan, if Ling Fan didn't say it, he wouldn't ask.
Of course, he could get it investigated…
“Nothing…” When he heard Chu Xiao's question, Ling Fan was stunned at first and then instantly shook his head.
However…
Suddenly, the corner of Ling Fan's mouth curved and he approached Chu Xiao, then said leisurely, "I was thinking of a way to kill him."
Don't misunderstand, Ling Fan suddenly said that not because he was honest, but he was ready to express his dissatisfaction to Chu Xiao…
If it was someone else, when he heard what Ling Fan said, he would definitely think he was crazy.
But who was Chu Xiao?
When he heard Ling Fan's words, Chu Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Why do you want to kill him?" Chu Xiao asked casually. His tone was very relaxed and it was like he didn’t think killing a person was something big at all.
It felt like ‘just kill him if you want’.
In fact, Chu Xiao didn't care whether Luo Li, someone of no great importance, was dead or not. What he really cared about was why Ling Fan wanted to kill him.
"Last time, you and he appeared at the Lan Group's shareholders meeting," Ling Fan suddenly leaned over and buried his head in Chu Xiao's neck, saying stuffily.
"Mmm…" suddenly got his neck bitten by Ling Fan, Chu Xiao couldn't help making a light groan, "That's because I was also involved in that thing."
Moreover...this guy's way of showing up really caught everyone unprepared…
"You're standing on his side..." Ling Fan continued with his teeth grinding.
Hearing Ling Fan's words, of course...there was also the complaint and depression in Ling Fan's tone. Chu Xiao felt so helpless about someone's childish behavior.
"He and I have a cooperative relationship before. I want the Lan family's ancestral land, which is the bargaining chip I help him get the whole Lan family’s properties." Chu Xiao rolled his eyes at Ling Fan and explained helplessly.
However, for some reason, when he heard what Ling Fan said, he actually felt a little…overjoyed?
"Hiss! Be gentle," Chu Xiao raised his neck as he spoke.
"Also, be careful not to touch the medicine."
"Mm, I won't, and if I accidentally mud off some, I'll apply some more for you later," Ling Fan said with a rather shameless tone. Once again, he held Chu Xiao a little tighter.
"Where is that land? I'll buy it for you." Ling Fan said in a dull voice.
Finally, he understood one thing.
So…in his past life, Chu Xiao and Luo Li only got together because of their cooperation…right?
When he heard Ling Fan's words, Chu Xiao finally couldn't help laughing.
"Puff...Do you think I can't get one piece of land if I want? I agreed to cooperate with Luo Li just trying to save myself some trouble,” Chu Xiao said helplessly about Ling Fan's jealousy, but if one listened carefully, one could tell the sweetness in his tone.
"And…Didn't I declare where I stand later?"
"…" Ling Fan really couldn't refute Chu Xiao's words, and…he even ‘requited the kindness with enmity’ using Gu Zhi to piss Chu Xiao off.
Ahem, he was really…an as*hole!
"But that time at the cafe, I saw you and him," said Ling Fan with a pretended depressed expression when he suddenly thought of something.
"What?" Chu Xiao was obviously confused when he heard Ling Fan's words.
"On September 23rd, at three forty in the afternoon, you and he were at Left Bank Café. I saw it."
“…” When he heard that, Chu Xiao's mouth twitched even harder. It seemed to be true. If Ling Fan hadn’t brought it up, Chu Xiao had already forgotten about it.
However…
"What's wrong with that?" Chu Xiao frowned and asked.
"You and him, you…" Ling Fan suddenly stopped.
Judging from Chu Xiao's expression, he could tell that he had no any good feelings for Luo Li. If the two of them were really kissing at that time, Chu Xiao would not have treated him like that last time...
So, that time was just an angle problem and he saw it wrong?
Although it was a little embarrassing to admit that he made a mistake, Ling Fan really had to admit it.
"What?"
"Ahem, nothing…" Ling Fan coughed awkwardly and said.
"Really…" Chu Xiao glanced at Ling Fan suspiciously, then added slowly, "And last time I met him there, it was because I wanted to find that bastard who has hidden himself too well."
Uh…
Needless to say, Ling Fan knew who Chu Xiao was talking about…
"So, you won't like someone like Luo Li?" asked Ling Fan trying to switch the topic.
This was what he wanted to know the most.
After all...Anyway, Luo Li had really become "Mrs. Chu" in his past life.
"No." Chu Xiao said with certainty.
Although he didn't know why Ling Fan felt so conflicted about what he would have with Luo Li, Chu Xiao still answered Ling Fan's question seriously, "I can't deny that someone like Luo Li is smart enough to be a partner, but that's all."
How could he like Luo Li? Not to mention Luo Li, even without Ling Fan, he had no doubt that he would not have feelings for anyone at all.
"Besides, Luo Li is not worth it," Chu Xiao added.
So in his past life, Chu Xiao and Luo Li’s marriage was very likely to be some kind of cooperation?
Thinking of this, Ling Fan suddenly felt relieved and a burst of uncontrollable joy.
"What about me?" Ling Fan looked at Chu Xiao with burning eyes. At this moment, he was eager to hear Chu Xiao's answer.
"You…" Chu Xiao looked back at Ling Fan, then smiled and gave Ling Fan a kiss.
"Even though I don't know why I have feelings for you such a little bastard, you're worth it."
