I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo

Chapter 273 Luo Hansheng in the Story

"Can you tell me a little bit?"

"Coco, do you want to listen?" Jing Qiao seemed a little hesitant, but thinking that Coco was also a member of the sanatorium, she probably wouldn't go out and tell nonsense.

He nervously grasped his clothes and looked towards the door.

Seeing that there was nothing unusual happening outside, he slowly relaxed.

In his narration, a story about Jing Li's past unfolds again.

Although Jing Li became a very good dancer through her own efforts, she did not have enough freedom in other aspects.

For example, about one's own marriage.

Jing Li's father arranged a marriage for Jing Li. The boy was a young man that Jing Li's father had always been optimistic about, but Jing Li didn't like him.

Although Jing Li had known this boy for a long time, she definitely had no romantic feelings towards him.

"Do you remember this boy's name?"

Gu Chaoxi had to interrupt. After all, it was better to understand all the characters when listening to the story.

Jing Qiao paused, as if thinking carefully.

"Well, what's it called, what's it called..."

"I think his name is Zhou Susheng."

"The person who made the engagement is called Zhou Susheng? Are you sure?" Gu Chaoxi was stunned.

In other words, Zhou Susheng was indeed engaged to Jing Li, and Jing Li was indeed the eldest lady.

But the person Jing Li likes is not Zhou Susheng?

What's going on?

Jing Qiao nodded and continued speaking.

Although Jing Li was dissatisfied with the engagement, she had no way of rejecting her father. After all, he had raised her, and she could not ignore him.

Therefore, this engagement has always remained in a strange state, and the relationship between Jing Li and Zhou Susheng has always been neither close nor distant.

But the turning point came relatively quickly. During one of Jing Li's performances, she met the son of an old teacher.

The old teacher loved dancing when she was young. At that time, Jing Li went to that place to perform, and the old teacher came to watch the performance, and that's how they met.

"What's that person's name?"

Jing Qiao hesitated, as if he had thought of something again.

Gu Chaoxi just looked at him and waited quietly. After a while, Jing Qiao finally spoke.

"That man told Lili that his last name was Luo, and his name was Luo Hansheng."

The original meaning of that name is that even people born in poor families should not underestimate themselves and always live a good life.

After Jing Li met Luo Hansheng, she was quickly attracted by this man's knowledge and insights.

It turns out that when Luo Hansheng was studying, he went to many different places and even went abroad.

This was indeed a rare person in this small place at that time.

So, Jing Li expressed her love for Luo Hansheng.

Just as Jing Li imagined, Luo Hansheng also had a good impression of her.

So it was natural for the two of them to start dating.

But Jing Li did not forget that she and Zhou Susheng still had an engagement, and she told Luo Hansheng about it.

After all, it was her father who arranged the marriage, and it was not Jing Li's own initiative. Luo Hansheng did not blame Jing Li for this. Instead, he told Jing Li that he would definitely get her father's approval through his efforts.

However, Zhou Susheng, who learned that Jing Li was in love, did not have such an attitude. He believed that Jing Li was unfaithful to her husband by falling in love with another man without breaking off her engagement with him.

Although Jing Li kept explaining to him that it was time for a free love relationship, Zhou Susheng simply wouldn't listen.

But one good thing is that Zhou Susheng didn't think of complaining.

He just told Jing Li that this marriage was agreed upon by the elders of both families and could not be cancelled just by their casual words.

However, in reality, Zhou Susheng has always liked Jing Li in his heart.

He simply could not accept that Jing Li fell in love with another man, so he went to Jing Li's house every now and then to cultivate his relationship with Jing Li.

But Jing Li already knew someone like Luo Hansheng, who was knowledgeable and had his own unique insights on many things.

He is completely different from Zhou Susheng, who relies on his father to do business.

What's more, Jing Li had never liked Zhou Susheng in the first place, so there was no question of her falling in love with someone else.

While Zhou Susheng was still thinking about winning back Jing Li, Jing Li was already planning when to let her father meet Luo Hansheng.

As time passed, the feelings between the two grew stronger, and Jing Li even fantasized about marrying Luo Hansheng.

Finally, one day when Zhou Susheng was out on business, Jing Li set up a game.

She invited her father to dinner outside and asked Luo Hansheng to book a private room in advance.

In order to strengthen her father's favor towards Luo Hansheng, Jing Li even asked Luo Hansheng to buy a lot of things that her father liked.

Everything is ready. We just need to let my father and Luo Hansheng meet, and everything will be solved.

However, things went against her wishes. That day, in the pouring rain, Jing Li was dragged back home by her father.

"Do you know what happened that day?"

Gu Chaoxi asked Jing Qiao, but he shook his head.

Neither Jing Li nor her father mentioned what happened at the dinner that day.

It was as if it was a secret, and if this secret was revealed, everyone would be doomed.

Jing Qiao only knew that from that day on, Jing Li never went to see Luo Hansheng again, nor did she say that she wanted to marry Luo Hansheng.

She even treated Zhou Susheng the same way she had treated him before.

From the outside, people would think that she and Zhou Susheng, an engaged couple, have a very good relationship.

But all this was just superficial calm, at least that's what Jing Qiao thought, because Jing Li at that time was so quiet that it was unlike her.

Sure enough, one day, everything began to develop in an uncontrollable direction.

During that time, even Jing Qiao discovered that Jing Li was particularly good to Zhou Susheng and even had the idea of ​​completing the engagement.

However, things did not develop exactly as Jing Qiao thought. Zhou Susheng's father fell from power overnight, and Zhou Susheng and Jing Li cancelled their engagement.

"In other words, what Zhao Xu knows is actually one-sided?"

Gu Chaoxi raised his hand and touched his chin, his eyes darkened.

If Zhou Susheng concealed the affair between Jing Li and Luo Hansheng in front of everyone and pretended that he and Jing Li had a good relationship for the sake of his own wealth and reputation,

It doesn't seem impossible.

After all, in Zhao Xu's description, Zhou Susheng himself was a very crazy person.

This does not rule out the possibility that Zhou Susheng pretended to be a different person in front of these people from the Jing family.

"After Zhou Susheng and Lili's engagement was cancelled, Lili was acting strangely and seemed very anxious."

Jing Qiao scratched his hair; he actually couldn’t figure it out.
