Chapter 779: Declaring His Own Ownership
The receptionist curiously looked at them, then asked, “Are you a couple?”
Su Jiu stole a glance at Rong Si. Seeing that he had no intention of denying it, she did not do that either. She only said to the receptionist, “Sister, he can stay with me.”
Rong Si’s eyes flickered. “Are you sure?”
“Yes!” Su Jiu vigorously nodded. “Big Brother, I really trust you.”
She was speaking in Chinese. Although the receptionist couldn’t understand what the girl was saying, she could sense that her relationship with the boy was extraordinary. She was certain that they were a couple, so she smiled and said, “You two seem to be very close. I wish you happiness.”
Rong blushed and followed Su Jiu inside the hotel. When they reached the elevator, he walked in with her.
Both of them were alone in the elevator. They stood side by side in the small space, not speaking to each other. The atmosphere suddenly became intimate.
Out of the corner of her eye, Su Jiu saw Rong Si’s slender and well-defined hand. She suddenly got the urge to hold it. His palm was warm, not as cold as he looked.
However, she was a girl after all. She was embarrassed to take the initiative to hold his hand and had to pretend that nothing had happened.
Rong Si was also very nervous now, his entire body stiff. He had never expected things to turn out this way. He was actually going to share a room with her.
Such a thing had only appeared in his dreams.
As he thought about it, the elevator doors suddenly opened and several people walked in from the restaurant on the second floor. They were all guests of this hotel. As soon as they entered the elevator, the elevator seemed cramped. Among them were two fat women. Su Jiu was squeezed into a corner.
When a man glanced at Su Jiu and was about to stand beside her, Rong Si’s eyes turned cold. Rong Si hurried to Su Jiu’s side and stood with her as if he were declaring his ownership. Then he looked coldly at the man, a warning in his gaze.
The man originally wanted to take advantage of Su Jiu while there were many people. When Rong Si rushed to Su Jiu, however, the man thought that Rong Si was Su Jiu’s boyfriend. Therefore, the man looked away resentfully and did not look at her again.
Su Jiu could sense that the little villain was protecting her.
Besides, he was standing so close to her now that their arms were touching. If she wasn’t careful, she would touch his hand. Her heart sped up and her face burned.
Rong Si touched her hand too. He had a strong urge to hold it, but he remembered that he would be sharing a room with her later. He couldn’t push his luck, so he dismissed the idea.
When they arrived at the hotel room, Su Jiu swiped her card and entered the room. She turned to Rong Si, who was still standing at the door. “Big Brother, what’s wrong? Come in.”
Rong Si was a little embarrassed as he followed her in. Su Jiu closed the door and pointed to the bed closest to the door. “You can sleep in this bed.”
“Okay.” Rong Si nodded and put his backpack on the bedside table.
Watching his every move, Su Jiu really felt like she had secretly brought her boyfriend home without telling her parents. She felt a little guilty.
Trying to calm herself, she casually asked, “Big Brother, have you eaten? Do you want to go eat?”
Rong Si turned to her. “What about you?”
“I’ve already eaten. But if you haven’t, I can eat with you.”
“Eaten?” Rong Si raised his eyebrows. “Who did you eat with? Xiao Wei?”
Su Jiu choked.
No way! How could he have guessed so accurately?
