After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor-Chapter 95 - 096 Confession (7)

Lou Xi nervously put away her phone.

She knew that in her relationship with Qin Mobai, she was definitely the one who invested more.

Although he was older than her and had more life experience, he was the kind of person who stood high above others.

Being with him, Lou Xi didn’t want people to think she was only with him for money. She actually... really liked Young Master Qin.

When he was aloof, he was adorable; when he was gentle, he was tender; when he was assertive, he made her heart race...

So being with someone like him, Lou Xi actually felt quite anxious inside.

"Lou Xi?" Rong Zhi called out to Lou Xi. Ever since he answered the phone, he noticed something seemed off about her demeanor. "Did something happen?"

Lou Xi snapped back to reality and quickly shook her head at Rong Zhi, "No, nothing at all!"

Rong Zhi’s eyes still revealed a hint of worry, yet he seemed hesitant to speak.

"Brother Rong, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go see Lu Lu first. Goodbye." Lou Xi thought about quickly arranging things for Bai Lu and then returning to Young Master Qin as fast as possible.

After all, Young Master Qin was sick; his emotions must be very fragile at this time.

With that, Lou Xi turned to leave.

After just two steps, she was pulled back by Rong Zhi, who grabbed her wrist. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Lou Xi," Rong Zhi’s handsome face was extremely serious, "we can go back to how things were before. You can tell me anything, and I’ll help you solve it. Also, stop calling me ’Brother Rong.’ I don’t want to be your brother."

Huh? Was he mad because she’d spent too much of his money and now didn’t even want to be her brother?

Lou Xi immediately showed an apologetic look, realizing she must have troubled Rong Zhi.

"Rong..." She quickly swallowed the word "brother," showing her keen perception, "Sorry, I’ve been a bother to you. It won’t happen again."

Rong Zhi’s brow furrowed slightly, clearly indicating that Lou Xi hadn’t understood what he just said.

"Lou Xi, look up."

Lou Xi obediently raised her head, and suddenly, everything went black before her eyes.

Rong Zhi leaned in.

His soft lips touched her forehead!

It seemed like time froze for that precise moment, and Lou Xi’s mind spun rapidly!

Rong Zhi had kissed her? Kissed her forehead?

Why did he kiss her?

They were no longer the neighborly brother and sister from their childhood—they had grown up. There should be proper distance between a man and a woman!

Immediately, Lou Xi instinctively stepped back, looking at Rong Zhi with a surprised expression, touching her forehead, feeling a bit uneasy inside.

"Xixi, I know you’ve always liked me, we..."

"Don’t say it..." As Lou Xi spoke, she felt tears about to fall, "Don’t say it."

Finishing her words, Lou Xi opened the stairwell door and ran outside, not leaving Rong Zhi a chance to speak.

Rong Zhi stood inside the stairwell, deeply furrowing his brow. He had just seen a look of disgust on Lou Xi’s face.

Did she hate that he kissed her?

But she clearly liked him, had liked him for so many years.

Even when she was with someone else, he knew they would break up, see, hadn’t they broken up?

But why did she feel disgusted when he kissed her?

Rong Zhi braced himself against the stair handrail, feeling especially agitated, took out a cigarette from his pocket, ignoring the no-smoking signs, lit a cigarette and put it to his lips.
