My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 172: The worse luck is yet to come!

Chapter 172

Chapter 172: 172: The worse luck is yet to come!
After almost an hour of mediation by Cen Jin, Yun Xi finally relented and decided to let the matter go, but she still didn’t give Lu Xize a good face. After Jiang Baizhou signed the guarantee paper for Lu Xize, the four of them finally left the police station.
"Yun Xi, do you want me to give you a ride home?"
Although Yun Xi was wronged in this matter, her spirits were high, and she seemed to be in fighting shape, so when Cen Jin asked, Yun Xi shook her head: "No need, I drove myself here. I still have to thank you, Cen Jin, thank you for standing by me and condemning this ’scumbag’ together."
Hearing himself being called a scumbag again, Lu Xize rolled his eyes. It didn’t hurt or itch. Anyway, in Yun Xi’s eyes, he couldn’t clear his name, and he was too lazy to make meaningless explanations, just a waste of effort.
"Then be careful on your way home, and send me a message when you get there! Have a good rest." Cen Jin nodded and gently comforted her.
"Okay, I’ll go now."
"Alright."
Before leaving, Yun Xi shot a fierce glare at Lu Xize, paused after taking two steps down the staircase, then came back and stood in front of Lu Xize: "I hope in this life, you will never appear in front of me again."
"Likewise, likewise." Lu Xize replied with a fake smile.
"Hmph." Yun Xi snorted, turned her head crisply, and swaggered off without a second glance.
Cen Jin watched them with an amused smile, seeing their mutual dislike, and walked over: "I say, Young Master Lu, you’re a man, after all, and you were in the wrong in this matter. If you had given in a little to Yun Xi just now...."
"Although I was in the wrong in this matter, I apologized sincerely, and it was an unintentional mistake. Look at her being so unforgiving, we’re all humans for the first time, why should I let her lecture me?" Lu Xize retorted with a defiant look.
Though he’s usually easy-going and has many pretty girls around him, he always adheres to the principle that ’men should give way to women,’ but it depends on the person, right?
Seeing his intense reaction, Cen Jin could only smile helplessly. Yun Xi also has a fiery personality. As the only daughter of the Yun Family, she’s a spoiled princess, naturally more willful.
And Lu Xize had an older brother backing him, accustomed to freedom and unrestrained behavior since childhood, though having a tender heart towards women, he wouldn’t give way to Yun Xi in this conflict.
"Now that we are out, our task is complete." Jiang Baizhou wasn’t interested in their love-hate relationship. He let them handle it however they wished, with no intention of playing the peacemaker. After saying this, he directly grabbed Cen Jin by the hand and walked towards the parking area, not forgetting to remind: "Don’t forget, the DSLR."
"What, you’re leaving just like that? Not caring about me?" Lu Xize called out hurriedly as he saw Jiang Baizhou pulling Cen Jin away: "My car’s still at the bar. How should I get back? Aren’t you going to give me a lift?"
"Get a cab yourself." Accompanied by the night breeze, Lu Xize faintly heard Jiang Baizhou’s cold voice drift into his ears.
"Bad choice of friends!" Lu Xize sighed heavily, holding his forehead and gazing up at the night sky, and couldn’t help but lament: "Did I not check the calendar before leaving home today? How am I so unlucky?"
Little did he know, even worse things hadn’t truly arrived yet!
