After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor-Chapter 288 - 289 Date (10)
When Bai Lu arrived, she didn’t see a devastated Lou Xi as she had expected; Lou Xi was much better than Bai Lu had imagined.
"Xixi, are you okay?" Bai Lu looked at Lou Xi with concern, after all, she witnessed how loving Qin Mobai and Lou Xi were just last night, yet by the very next day, at the press conference, Qin Sheng announced that Qin Mobai was engaged to Shen Ruozhuo.
Bai Lu had seen the ring on Lou Xi’s hand. Bai Lu worried that Qin Mobai might be like those wealthy young masters, who toy with a girl’s feelings and then buy her off afterward.
That was why she had been so defensive towards Lu Li last night; she instinctively didn’t trust people like him.
"I’m fine." Lou Xi shook her head, "I really am fine."
Worried that Bai Lu would be concerned, Lou Xi emphasized it a little.
"I trust Young Master Qin. He has no feelings for Shen Ruozhuo at all, he must have his reasons for doing this." Even though Qin Mobai hadn’t called her since the press conference until now, Lou Xi still believed there was a reason for Qin Mobai’s actions.
She knew that Qin Mobai didn’t have the slightest affection for Shen Ruozhuo.
Because of love, she trusts.
Seeing Lou Xi like this, Bai Lu didn’t seem to have much to say either. She couldn’t possibly badmouth Qin Mobai in front of Lou Xi, especially since she didn’t know Qin Mobai well enough to offer any opinion.
All she could do was be there for Lou Xi when she needed her.
"Xixi, is it really okay to trust someone so completely? No matter what, when a girl likes someone, she should always keep something in reserve," Bai Lu advised Lou Xi. "I know you think Young Master Qin is different from Zhou Zichen, but... but when it comes to men, it’s better to keep something in reserve."
The two women had both been cheated on before, but after being cheated on, Lou Xi met Qin Mobai, a man who made Lou Xi feel completely loved during the recent period. How could Lou Xi not believe in such a man?
Lou Xi wasn’t quite sure what Bai Lu had been through, but she could tell from her words that Bai Lu hadn’t been having a good time recently.
Could it be that even the appearance of Lu Li hadn’t changed the status quo?
Of course, Lou Xi didn’t ask Bai Lu about these things. If Bai Lu didn’t willingly bring them up, there was nothing she could do to interfere, since everyone has their own life to live.
"So, what are you going to do? Everyone now knows that Shen Ruozhuo is Young Master Qin’s fiancée. By doing this, you’re essentially the other woman coming between them." As much as Bai Lu hated to say it, the situation was what it was, and Lou Xi had indeed become the third party destroying someone else’s relationship.
Fortunately, she was the only one who knew they were together, and she wouldn’t tell anyone about it.
But what if others found out? People who didn’t understand would always fabricate stories, and how would Lou Xi, an ordinary female college student, deal with the rumors?
The current situation became more complicated for Lou Xi as Bai Lu laid it out.
She couldn’t possibly stay under Qin Mobai’s wing forever; she had to work hard to become better so that she would be worthy of standing by Qin Mobai’s side.
"Young Master Qin will call off the engagement with Shen Ruozhuo. What I need to do now is wait and not cause any trouble for Young Master Qin." She knew that while she wasn’t capable of much, her best option was not to add to Qin Mobai’s problems.
