Chapter 161: Absolutely badass!

"Holy shit!" Ye Wuqi and the others were completely stunned. Could she be any more badass?

Uncle Wang and the servants tending to the living room were equally dumbstruck. Their Miss Luoluo was really, truly cool—she was practically bursting with badass energy!

Gong Lü was taken aback at first, completely not expecting Ye Luo to kiss him like that, but immediately afterward, the corners of his mouth curved upward in an uncontrollable grin.

Ye Luo didn't care in the least whether the corners of Gong Lü's mouth were turned up or not. The moment the kiss ended, she turned her head and asked Ye Wuqi, "Are you satisfied?"

"Huh?"

Still immersed in the sheer coolness of their Sister Luo, Ye Wuqi didn't react for a moment.

"Holy shit, you are fucking so badass!" Qin Zhaoqi jumped up in excitement, finding Ye Luo's current demeanor even more dazzling, making it completely impossible for him to stay calm.

Without even glancing at Qin Zhaoqi, seeing that Ye Wuqi still hadn't processed a thing, Ye Luo asked again, "Are you satisfied?"

Finally, Ye Wuqi snapped back to reality, only to panic even more. He didn't dare utter a single word about being satisfied, wanting only to apologize: "Um, Luo—"

Before he could even finish or offer an apology, Ye Luo let go of Gong Lü's collar with a swift yank and strode toward the stairs.

Her expression remained utterly blank.

Yet her entire body radiated icy chill.

It was as if, with this single departure, you would be you and she would be she, leaving not a shred of connection between them ever again.

Gong Lü could finally no longer keep smiling, and lowered his head, pinching the bridge of his nose which had begun to throb with pain.

"Ah, Sister Luo, Sister Luo..." Ye Wuqi could smile even less, and hurried to chase after her.

For some reason, he had this overwhelming feeling once again that Ye Luo was about to completely abandon him forever.

It was just like last time!

Clearly, he didn't harbor that kind of romantic feeling for Ye Luo, and their bond as friends and classmates wasn't all that deep either, but for reasons unknown, he was simply terrified of seeing Ye Luo like this.

It felt as though Ye Luo was his family member, and right at this moment, she was casting him aside, leaving him entirely alone, with no one to care for him or watch over him ever again.

"Did we push the joke too far?" Lei Xingxing asked with his characteristic naivety. Seeing Ye Wuqi in such a frantic rush to chase after Ye Luo while still failing to grasp the full situation, he scratched his head and blurted out the question.

"Damn it, are you still talking! Hurry up and get up! Let's go up too! Sister Luo is furious—the kind of furious where she won't be easily coaxed. Brother Qi definitely can't handle this alone! Let's go help!"

As he spoke, Yan Baba was already the first to dash toward the stairs.

Qin Zhaoqi and the others hurriedly followed behind.

Gong Lü remained seated on the couch, pinching the bridge of his aching nose.

"Sister Luo, Sister Luo, I'm sorry, Sister Luo! Please listen to my explanation, Sister Luo, Luo—" Ye Wuqi chased Ye Luo all the way to the threshold of her bedroom.

Unfortunately, the moment Ye Luo stepped inside, she slammed the door shut, locking him firmly outside.

If he hadn't dodged so quickly, the door would have smashed right into his face and left him bleeding.

Ah, she was genuinely furious!

Ye Wuqi was on the verge of crying from anxiety.

As soon as Yan Baba and the others reached the top of the stairs, they saw the expression on Ye Wuqi's face and couldn't quite process it. "Brother Qi, didn't you say you don't even like Sister Luo? Then what the hell is this supposed to mean right now?"

"How the hell should I know?! If I knew, would I be standing here freaking out?! Anyway, she can't just ignore me like this, that's all! Ah!" Ye Wuqi let out a howl. "My heart feels like it's being ripped apart!"

"Oh, I get it now," Lei Xingxing said, nodding with an expression that suggested he understood everything completely. "Brother Qi must be afraid that if he and Sister Luo completely fall out like this, she won't transfer money into his account on the first of every month anymore. And that car promised for the Lunar New Year—Sister Luo might not give it to him as agreed either."

For the very first time, Ye Wuqi felt an intense urge to strangle Lei Xingxing.

Yan Baba and the others, however, found this reasoning entirely plausible, and nodded in unison, validating Lei Xingxing's words: "If you hadn't mentioned it, we would've completely forgotten about those two things. It must really be that!"

Ye Wuqi: "..."
