Chapter 1600 - 1601: Greatly Overstepping Boundaries
Luo Ling’er’s scheming was far deeper than the other two, which Su Chengyu had already sensed upon their first meeting.
However, she did not expect the other party to discover so quickly that she had something to hide and to speak so directly to her about it.
Su Chengyu put down the wine cup in his hand and did not deny the other’s judgment, but instead countered: "You feel that I have reservations and wish to confide in me, that’s fine. But just you alone, don’t you think that is somewhat unfair to the other two?"
Luo Ling’er covered her mouth with a light laugh, showing no signs of shaken by Su Chengyu’s words, and replied: "Unfair? This world was never fair to begin with. Differences in status and talent, these are predestined and unchangeable, so why talk about fairness?"
"They are also the children of Elders," Su Chengyu calmly asserted, using the status of the other two to threaten Luo Ling’er.
"Humph, one is a nouveau riche, the other misses a beat in his head, how dare they be mentioned in the same breath as me? Keeping their company is simply a disguise to avoid standing out too much. In fact... I see no hope for the Luo Clan anymore, even if the bloodline continues onward."
Su Chengyu suddenly looked up, not expecting Luo Ling’er to bring up the matter of bloodline continuation in front of him.
This subconscious action did not escape Luo Ling’er’s eyes, and the corners of her mouth lifted slightly as she said: "Indeed, you also know the true significance of the existence of Lady Saintess. What exactly is your relationship with the person who covertly entered the Luo Clan? Was that sword attack from you?"
The slip just now forced Su Chengyu to suppress the turmoil in his heart. The young lady before him had much deeper schemes than he had imagined. Right now, he must remain calm so as not to reveal more in front of her.
Looking at Luo Ling’er, who was intently seeking the truth, Su Chengyu, with a now clear mind, did not respond but instead replied in a questioning manner.
"What do you think?"
