Chapter 34 Do you like him?
Isabel just looked up and saw that Luka's usually meticulous and stern face now showed anxiety. He quickly walked to Qiao Susu's side, gently held her slender wrist with his big hand, and the next second he spoke in a gentle tone that Isabel had never heard before.
"Is everything okay?"
Liberi also walked over from the other side of Isabel. When he saw Lukla looking at her, his eyes dimmed for a moment, and then he stood in front of her, with the angle just enough to block Isabel, as if isolating her from some danger.
"What did she say to you?"
The two men hurried over after hearing from the servants that Sui Sui went to the library to meet Lan Ze. After bumping into each other on the road, they looked at each other without saying a word and rushed straight over here. When they approached, they found Sui Sui and Isabel together, and Libery frowned fiercely.
At this moment, he stared at Isabel with a bad look on his face and asked coldly, "What are you doing?"
Isabel was angry and aggrieved, and she retorted directly: "Which eye of yours saw me messing around? We were obviously talking normally!"
Liberi didn't believe it, and stood in front of her, protecting Qiao Suisui behind him. The meaning of protection was self-evident. Luka stroked her wrist bones, questioning with his eyes, and repeatedly confirmed that she was really okay.
"I'm fine. Your Highness the Princess just wanted to talk to me."
Isabel crossed her arms, raised her chin and glared fiercely, her eyeballs almost falling out. That meant: Look, you wronged me!
Luka's eyes were on Qiao Susu from beginning to end, and he never looked at Isabel.
"That's enough for now. I'm going to take Sui Sui back home. She can't be exposed to the wind." said Libery.
"??? Wind? Where is the wind?" said Isabel.
"You're so strong, of course you can't feel it."
After Liberi finished speaking, he reached out and gently supported Qiao Suisui's waist, leading her forward. Luka noticed his action, his expression paused, and then returned to his usual coldness, with a bad expression, and he had no intention of letting go of Qiao Suisui's wrist.
And just like that, the three of them passed Isabel in a harmonious yet secretly turbulent posture.
"Princess, I'll chat with you next time."
Qiao Susu turned around to greet her, but the next second, Libery's hand pressed on her head and forced her to turn back.
Liberi sighed and said, "Don't get too close to her. She has been domineering since she was a child. Be careful that she might hurt you."
“She’s not that scary.”
"What Liberi said makes sense." Luka also rarely agreed with Liberi's idea, and then added faintly: "They grew up together, so they know each other better."
This statement was meant to say that Libery and Isabel had a close relationship, which was actually completely unnecessary to mention, but Luka said it anyway.
Liberi immediately noticed his intention, sneered, and said, "If you talk about growing up together, Isabel and Luka also grew up together, so they are so devoted to him."
"I have nothing to do with her."
"If there is no relationship, why does she keep causing trouble for Sui Sui? Who is it because of?"
Luka and Liberi looked at each other with sharp eyes. Qiao Suisui, who was caught in the middle, suddenly felt the temperature around her drop sharply, as if she had frozen.
"Well, I can actually go back by myself."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard two people say in unison -
"I send you."
"I'll go back with you."
The two men refused to give in and looked at Qiao Suisui, waiting for her to make a decision. She closed her eyes and then started to move.
"Lan Ze and I agreed to become a couple."
A sudden bomb made Luka and Liberi's brains buzz.
Feeling the man's strength tightening slightly on her wrist, Qiao Su Su looked up at Luka, who was looking down slightly at this moment, with his hair covering his eyes, making it impossible to see what he was thinking. She looked at Liberi again, and saw that he had no expression on his face, and looked calm.
After listening to this, the two of them fell into strange silence. After a while, Qiao Susu spoke first.
"Lan Ze and I have agreed that we will move out after we get married. As for him, he will find another place." She briefly summarized the conversation she had just had with Lan Ze.
After listening to this, Liberi nodded, but unusually said nothing.
Luka stared at her, as if he wanted to ask something, but swallowed it back.
Qiao Suisui didn't want them to worry about it, so she took the initiative to say it. Seeing their reactions, it was obvious that her goal had not been achieved. However, she would not dwell on this matter too much, because no matter what the attitudes of Liberi and Luka were, she would definitely marry Lan Ze, which was related to her survival interests.
Although she lived cautiously before she crossed over, she never gave in on major issues, which was engraved in her bones. Call her cold and selfish, Qiao Sui Sui always believed that the most important thing was to live a good life.
Therefore, in the following time, even though she noticed that Luka was depressed, she did not ask again.
Liberi sent her to the door of the bedroom and left, which surprised Qiao Susui. Because in the past, he would never let Luka be alone with her, not to mention that he was so clingy some time ago, and wanted to follow her 24 hours a day, so why would he leave without even entering her room?
She looked at Liberi's back as he left, thinking deeply, but she didn't know that Luka saw her expression and thought that she was reluctant to let Liberi leave, and then the pain in her heart deepened a little.
As soon as the two entered the door, Qiao Susu took off her shoes. Although her shoes were all carefully selected by Labrie, with soft, comfortable soles and beautiful shapes, she would get tired easily if she stood for a long time, probably because of her pregnancy.
She lowered her head to change her shoes and asked naturally: "Luka, aren't you going back to the military headquarters today?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as I stepped barefoot on the carpet, I was embraced in a strong embrace.
The man's tall body hugged her from behind and remained silent for a long time.
"Luka?"
"I know I'm not qualified to ask this." He felt like his throat was stuffed with 10,000 kilograms of cotton, making him unable to speak, but he still had a lot to say, "Sui Sui, do you like him?"
"Who?"
He wanted to say Libery, but then he remembered that both of them had the last name Libery, so he said, "Lanze, or Ash."
The person in his arms was silent, but even just a few breaths seemed incredibly slow to Luka.
He didn't dare to look into her eyes, didn't dare to listen to her answer, and didn't dare to ask her.
He wanted to say that he didn't want to be with Lan Ze and didn't want to like Liberi, but the next second he deeply hated his possessiveness.
She is the only female.
Even if it wasn't Lan Ze or Ash, there would be someone else in the future. The day he rescued her from that huge birdcage, Luka knew that she would not belong to any one male.
"Luka, I."
Just as Qiao Susu was about to answer, he suddenly pinched her chin and then blocked her mouth with warm and soft lips.
He lingered on her lips just to avoid hearing the answer.
"Don't say it, please."
