After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 1853: Chapter 1857: I Believe It’s Worth It

Watching the distance grow between them and the cruise ship, Luo Xiaoqian finally felt her heart gradually relax.

Luo Ke’s gaze remained on her face, noticing the obvious relaxation in her furrowed brows. A glimmer of confusion flickered in his emerald green eyes.

Leaving the big ship made her feel more at ease. Why was that?!

Feeling his gaze, Luo Xiaoqian pursed her lips, withdrawing her eyes from the window to look at her palms.

After traveling for more than half an hour, the speedboat quickly reached the shore. Luo Ke stood up to help her off the boat, where two men were already waiting respectfully on the beach. Judging by their appearance, they were Asian, likely locals from South Korea.

”Sir!” Upon seeing Luo Ke, the two men immediately approached and respectfully greeted him in English, ”The plane is ready. It departs in an hour, directly to Rome.”

Luo Xiaoqian was well aware of Cobra’s situation and knew Luo Ke’s capabilities, so she wasn’t too surprised.

Luo Ke simply nodded lightly, and the men respectfully guided Luo Ke and Luo Xiaoqian to the roadside, where they boarded a waiting car bound for the city.

The car Luo Xiaoqian and Luo Ke sat in was a limousine. As soon as Luo Xiaoqian got in, she immediately chose a seat by the window, while Luo Ke sat opposite her.

With an injury on his back, his body naturally leaned towards her, making Luo Xiaoqian feel uncomfortable.

Turning her face to look out the window, pretending to watch the scenery, her mind was racing with thoughts.

A flight in an hour. Was he really planning to take her away so soon?!

Once they reached Rome, that would be his territory, making it even harder for Leng Zimo to rescue her.

She had to stall for time as much as possible, but... how?!

Pretend to feel unwell?

No way!

This guy is too cunning. A simple act of feigning sickness might easily be seen through by him.

Noticing the decorative flower trees by the roadside, Luo Xiaoqian raised an eyebrow slightly.

Then, what if she feigned a pollen allergy?!

No, that wouldn’t work either. It would be too risky, especially since she was pregnant. What if something went wrong?

This wasn’t possible, nor was that. Watching the time pass and the car moving steadily forward, Luo Xiaoqian was feeling extremely anxious.

”Sissi?!”

Luo Ke called her softly.

Luo Xiaoqian was lost in her thoughts and didn’t hear him.

”Sissi?!” Luo Ke raised his voice.

”Ah...” Luo Xiaoqian snapped back to reality and withdrew her gaze from the window, ”What is it?”

”You want to run away, don’t you?” Luo Ke asked, looking into her eyes.

Luo Xiaoqian pursed her lips and leaned back in her seat, turning her head to the side with her eyes closed, ”I’m a bit tired and want to rest for a while!”

Luo Ke squinted slightly, admiring the delicate outline of her profile, ”This time, you won’t be able to escape.”

Luo Xiaoqian suddenly opened her eyes and sat up straight, looking at him.

”Luo Ke... I’m already twenty-five, and I love another man. I’m also a woman who has given birth... I’m really not worth all this effort!”

Luo Ke’s lips curled slightly, ”I think you are worth it!”

Luo Xiaoqian bit her lip, ”Fine, even if I take a step back and assume you could keep me locked up for the rest of my life, and I can’t escape... But what meaning would that hold?!”

Luo Ke continued to smile, ”I’ve told you, you will fall in love with me.”

”That’s absolutely impossible.” Luo Xiaoqian looked deeply into his eyes, ”I will only love Leng Zimo in this life. It is forever impossible for me to love you. Give up that hope!”
