Chapter 395
If nothing unexpected happens, Su Qian's father will naturally ask me how to save Su Qian.
But he doesn't have real power yet, and he's discussing important matters with a seasoned veteran in the business world without the authority to transfer personnel...
"One wrong move and the whole game is lost..."
Wu Liang sat down on the sofa, stroking his chin as he pondered deeply. He knew he couldn't avoid meeting Su Qian's father that night.
So now he only has one foolproof plan: to convince Su Qian's father that he has the ability to save the Su Family without letting him discover the fake relationship.
Achieving the first point is not difficult; he believes his acting skills are quite good.
But the second point is a bit tricky, since the other party is a giant who has been in the business world for decades.
It's unrealistic and impossible to simply fool the other party.
"Wu Liang, I will be with you."
Su Qian could tell that Wu Liang was worried about meeting her father.
A beautiful smile appeared on her rosy lips as she slowly got up and walked to Wu Liang's side, sitting down next to him on his shoulder.
"I noticed this nervous expression on your face when we first met."
Su Qian took a deep breath and then placed her small hand on the back of Wu Liang's hand.
Her slightly flushed face looked incredibly cute.
Elegance without losing cuteness, cuteness without losing nobility—this perfectly encapsulates Su Qian's current appearance.
"Su... Su Qian?"
Feeling the softness and smoothness on his hands, Wu Liang stared wide-eyed at Su Qian.
What does this mean? Is she trying to comfort herself or is she planning something else?
"Look, we're already a couple in name only. If we don't get to know some of the things couples do first, our father will find out soon."
"Holding hands like this, with fingers intertwined, is very common for couples."
"If we feel embarrassed or uncomfortable even with such actions, do you think our father wouldn't notice?"
Su Qian held Wu Liang's hand tightly and smiled gently, but her flushed face also confirmed her current tension and panic.
Although she appeared calm on the surface, Su Qian's mind was in complete turmoil.
No matter how calm and elegant she is, she is still a girl with a girlish heart.
It's normal for her to feel shy when she's in such close contact with men her own age, right?
"Ah, you, you're right."
Wu Liang stared blankly at Su Qian, whose face was flushed and whose eyes were full of charm.
His gaze involuntarily followed the other person's fair neck to the glimpse of white skin at the collar.
"Since no one's around now, shall we practice some couple-specific moves?"
"After all, we're going to see my father tonight, so it's better if we get to know each other a bit more first."
Su Qian swallowed to soothe her dry throat, her wine-red eyes gazing at Wu Liang with a watery look.
Actually, she didn't know why she suddenly said such nonsensical things.
But after seeing Wu Liang's conflicted and hesitant expression, she wanted to encourage him.
Since Wu Liang was so concerned about her own affairs, she naturally couldn't just stand by and watch.
Even though they were just pretending to be a couple, she should still fulfill her obligations as a lover.
"Yes... yes..."
Seeing Su Qian gradually moving closer to him, Wu Liang opened his mouth and spoke in a hoarse voice.
He's just trying to appear more natural in front of Su Qian's father. There's nothing between him and Su Qian; he just needs to do this...
They're just acting now, like those actors.
"Then let's... begin..."
Su Qian pressed her face against the other's chest and murmured softly, as if a mosquito had rung.
Her ears, already bright red, clearly showed just how shy she was.
"Um..."
Wu Liang slowly raised his right hand and gently embraced Su Qian's soft and fragrant body, pulling her into his arms.
So, what should we do next? Can anyone tell him...?
"Young Master! Yao Shi and I are back!! I heard from He Xue that you were here, so I came to find you."
Milutin kicked open the door and laughed heartily.
But then, in a flash, her smile froze on her face, as if she had been petrified...
Chapter Thirty-Seven: Chapter Title: Went to Watch a Movie
Milutin stared blankly at the two people sitting on the sofa in the hall, frozen in place like a stone, unsure of what to say.
He stretched out his right hand, pointing tremblingly at Wu Liang and Su Qian, who were nestled together. He opened his mouth wide, but no sound came out.
Ruby's eyes widened as she stared intently at the two people embracing like intimate lovers, gazing at each other with deep affection.
Milutin felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on his chest, making it difficult to even breathe.
She had never felt this way before; the oppressive feeling, as if someone had gripped her heart, made her very uncomfortable.
Although I've seen the young master behaving intimately with other girls before, none of it was like what we're doing now, like a real couple...
The sudden chill that rose behind her felt like a biting wind blowing from the frozen wasteland of the Netherworld.
The bone-chilling cold instantly froze the room to an eerie and chilling level.
Milutin, who was already feeling a bit unwell, suddenly shivered, and a bad feeling immediately rose in her heart.
Oh my god... she's completely forgotten that Yao Shi is still here...
"Ah, Yao Shi, calm down a bit..."
Thinking of this, Milutin hurriedly turned around to stop Yao Shi.
Oh no, oh no, oh no, Yao Shi must be angry.
Yao Shi wouldn't lay a hand on Su Qian, would she...? No way... she shouldn't...
"Young Master, Miss Su Qian, what are you doing here?"
Ignoring Milutin's obstruction, Yao Shi pushed past Milutin's arm and walked up to the two of them.
His cold eyes were as calm as still water, without the slightest emotional fluctuation.
Looking down at the two people who were tightly embracing each other, Yao Shi forced a smile that she thought was fairly gentle.
"The devil's smile..."
When Milutin, who was following behind Yao Shi, saw the other party's ferocious, ghost-like smile, he couldn't help but take a step back in fear.
This girl's anger must be about to explode; it's a wonder she can remain calm under such circumstances...
Yao Shi seems to have become much more tolerant in this regard. If this were the old Yao Shi...
"They're probably going to tear this Student Council Room down..."
Milutin stared at Yao Shi's slender back with twitching eyes.
If Su Qian had been given to the Yao Shi who used to see the young master as everything, she might be lying on the ground now instead of nestled in the young master's arms.
"Ah, um, good afternoon, Yao Shi, Milutin."
Cold sweat dripped involuntarily from his forehead. Wu Liang twisted his stiff head, his face pale, as he stared at Yao Shi stood silently in front of him.
No, these two said they had something to do this afternoon and couldn't come to school, so why are they back so quickly?
Wait a minute, why is he acting like a cheating man caught in the act?
He clearly did nothing wrong. He and Su Qian were completely innocent; they were simply hugging and trying out actions that couples usually do.
This doesn't seem to have much of an impact. It's fake anyway, so what's there for him to be afraid of?
"Miss Shi?"
Su Qian raised her face and looked at Yao Shi, whose expression was icy cold.
It wasn't until several seconds later that she realized she was being intimately held in Wu Liang's arms, and that she was nestled against his chest.
"Ah, Miss Shi Yaoshi, this is not what you see. Please let me explain."
He hurriedly pushed away Wu Liang's chest and adjusted his sitting posture on the sofa.
She didn't want Miss Shi Yaoshi and Miss Milutin to misunderstand her actions.
He and Wu Liang had no relationship in that way; they were just...
"Are they practicing being a couple?"
After a moment of silence, Yao Shi slowly spoke.
The chill around her gradually dissipated, as if it had never happened.
"Eh? Ah, yes, yes, but why are you, Miss Shi Yaoshi..."
Su Qian was originally planning to explain things to Yao Shi in detail, was slightly stunned.
Why did Miss Shi guess this? She hadn't mentioned it to the other party.
"There's only one reason that can explain your actions just now..."
Yao Shi only said half of what she wanted to say; she didn't finish her sentence.
She knew what kind of feelings Su Qian had for the young master, but it was clearly not the right time yet.
Even Su Qian herself might not have noticed, so she doesn't need to spell things out too clearly yet.
However, judging from Su Qian's current appearance, it probably won't be long before she falls for it too.
There was nothing that could be done about it; after all, Su Qian had chosen the young master as her partner.
"Ah... you're right..."
Su Qian smiled awkwardly upon hearing this, her small hand unconsciously covering her chest.
It was indeed a fake relationship between me and Wu Liang; Miss Shi was absolutely right.
But why did I feel a sting when I heard Miss Shi say those words?
Was she unwilling to stop at just being a fake couple? Or did she not want this to be merely a practice session?
"Did we disturb your practice?"
Milutin's gaze kept sweeping over Yao Shi and Su Qian.
There was an unexpected peace between the two of them, especially Yao Shi, who was surprisingly calm.
Is this discrimination? You were so impulsive when you were dealing with Han Yu.
"No! That's not true. Actually, I only did that for personal reasons."
"Since Wu Liang is coming to visit my home tonight, I think it would be best to practice beforehand."
Su Qian quickly got up and stopped Milutin, who was about to leave.
There was nothing shameful between her and Wu Liang.
If Miss Milutin were to leave because of this, wouldn't that just make it seem like she and Wu Liang have some kind of secret?
"Oh? Young Master is coming to your house tonight?"
Milutin was stunned. Something's not right. Isn't this happening a little too fast? It's only been a day and they're already getting to meeting the parents?
Besides, isn't the order reversed? Shouldn't the young master go to talk to the master first, and then deal with Su Qian's matter?
"Oh? Young master, you didn't mention this to me."
Upon hearing this, Yao Shi gave Wu Liang, who was sitting on the sofa, a cold glance.
