The Dragon Beside Me

Chapter 160 - My Fated Person



Long Fei\'s expression changed when he heard that Su Ruan was unhappy because she happened to meet someone unpleasant. "What happened?"

He recalled them running into Su Ruan\'s stepmother yesterday and thought that she had run into that person again. "Did you run into your stepmother again?"

Su Ruan chuckled. "That\'s not it." She placed her drink on the side table and looked at the person who was sitting beside her. After weighing her thoughts for a while Su Ruan finally spoke, "It was a crazy person who thought that I was trying to snatch her fiance."

In the end, Su Ruan decided that she could not speak to Long Fei about Yu Zhi Yi. At least, not at this moment. She did not want to make Long Fei unhappy by mentioning another man out of the blue. She did not want him to misunderstand that she still have feelings for Yu Zhi Yi.

The past… was better left behind.

Right now, she should be focusing on what\'s in front of her instead.

If Long Fei heard something about her and Yu Zhi Yi later, then, be it. When he asked about her later, then, she would explain.

Long Fei raised his brow when he heard her words.

"I have a good relationship with this fiance and the woman thought that I was trying to be a third party. No matter how I tried to explain that our relationship was not that way, that woman would not believe me."

The man continued to observe her expression, trying to guess her mood. "The fiance you were talking about… could it be the friend who came to pick us up at the airport yesterday?"

Su Ruan watched him in surprise. After a while, she lowered her gaze and nodded. "Mr. Long Fei, you are really good at guessing."

Long Fei chuckled before he took a swig at his drink. "You shouldn\'t be unhappy because of someone else\'s insecurity," Long Fei said.

"I know."

"Anyway, your boyfriend is someone rich and good-looking. With me as your boyfriend, why would you be interested in another man?"

Su Ruan laughed when she heard his words. "I did not expect that you could be narcissistic. But you are right. I have you as my boyfriend."

His lips curled into a smile, knowing that she was feeling better again.

"Well, my good-looking boyfriend," Su Ruan leaned forward and smiled. "When the time comes, you have to help me to dispel that woman\'s thought."

Seeing her face so close to him, Long Fei could not help but stretch his hand and pinched her cheek. "I will definitely help you. Didn\'t you have another appointment in the morning? You should go to bed earlier. Otherwise, you\'re going to be late again."

"Long Fei, why are you so nice to me?"

His deep chuckle reverberated in the room. Long Fei looked at her pink cheek and wondered if she was drunk. "If I\'m not nice to you, then, who should I be nice to?"

"Such a rich and good-looking man… why would you be interested in someone like me?" Su Ruan mumbled.

Long Fei pursed his lips into a thin line. "Because you are my fated person." He watched as Su Ruan stared at him with a puzzlement look. Then, he stretched his hand to cover her eyes. When he finally removed his hand again, Su Ruan had fallen into a deep sleep.

He stared at the person who was leaning on the sofa for a long time, thinking about the words she said.

Although Su Ruan was no longer unhappy, he could sense that there were a lot of things in her mind.

Moreover… she seemed as if there was something that she wanted to tell him, but was unable to. Long Fei could not help but wonder if it was about her best friend, Yu Zhi Yi.

A heavy sigh escaped him. Long Fei leaned over and picked her up in his arms. Then, he carried her into her bedroom and placed her on the bed. After tucking her in and ensuring that she was comfortable, Long Fei planted a kiss on her forehead and left the room.



Su Ruan woke up the next morning with a headache.

She looked around the room and tried to recall what had happened last night. She seems to remember having a drink in the living room. Then, Long Fei showed up and she began to tell him the reason she was unhappy.

Su Ruan remembered mentioning Yu Zhi Yi and his fiance. Then, she had thought about telling Long Fei about Yu Zhi Yi. In the end, she could not remember whether she had said anything to Long Fei. She seemed to remember that Long Fei had told her something. But... What was it?

Moreover…

How did she get to her room? Did she return on her own or did Long Fei carry her back?

Her face turned red as the picture of him carrying her in his arms appeared in her mind.

Su Ruan patted her cheeks and get off the bed to get ready. She had made an appointment with Yu Zhi Yi and did not want to let that man wait for her for a long time.

When she came out of her bedroom, the butler was preparing the dining table with their breakfast. Su Ruan glanced at Long Fei\'s door and wondered if he was still around.

"Miss Su, please, have a seat," the butler spoke as he helped to pull a chair for her. "Young Master will come out in a bit."

"Thank you." Su Ruan sat down and peeked at the dishes on the table. There was a hint of surprise on her face as saw the bowl of noodles in front of her.

"Miss Su, the Young Master asked me to prepare this for you," the butler said. "It will help you with your hangover."

A tinge of pink appeared on her face. As she heard the sounds of footsteps approaching, Su Ruan raised her head again and saw Long Fei walking over.

The man flashed her a smile.. "Good morning. Are you feeling better?"
