The Return of the God Level Assassin

Chapter 1105  SU YUQI'S COUSINS

"SISTER Yuqi?"

Both Su Yuqi and Luo Jin turned to the direction of the voice. There were two people standing there.

The one who called Su Yuqi just now was a girl who looked 16 or 17. She was wearing a yellow cheongsam with a red peony pattern. Her hair was in a curly bun hairstyle with a peony shaped pin attached to it. She looked just like a fresh peony - bright and energetic.

The other one was a much taller girl, wearing a bright red cheongsam. She seemed to be also older than the other girl by two or three years. Her long hair was tightly arranged in a high bun, accentuating her sharp features. While the first girl looked at Su Yuqi with a cheerful smile, the taller girl's gaze held a clear hint of mockery.

Luo Jin heard Su Yuqi emit an annoyed groan upon spotting the two girls. As if sensing his gaze, Su Yuqi whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear;

"They're my cousins. The overly bright one is Su Jingyi, and the one who looked like she wants nothing but to see me make a fool of myself is Su Wenyu. The former one is okay, the latter is exasperating."

Before Luo Jin could react to what Su Yuqi had said, the two girls had already approached them.

"Sister Yuqi, happy birthday! I'll give my gift to you later," Su Jingyi said. "Oh, but shouldn't you be with Uncle Han?"

"Isn't it obvious? She's busy here entertaining her boyfriend," Su Wenyu scoffed while casting a mocking glance at the linked arms of Su Yuqi and Luo Jin.

This time, Su Jingyi also glanced at Luo Jin. She looked at the tall young man. He was dressed in a button-down shirt paired with dark jeans, showcasing a well-proportioned physique. In fact, it was more than just well-proportioned. Just look at those biceps!

But... was he really Su Yuqi's boyfriend?

She wanted to ask to quench her curiosity. But before she could, Su Wenyu had already spoken first. And of course, the other was still speaking in that prickly tone she always used whenever she talked to Su Yuqi.

"Look at this. You're not even denying it."

Su Wenyu glanced once again at the linked arms of the two. Despite deliberately mentioning "boyfriend" and giving them a meaningful look, Su Yuqi remained unfazed. She didn't even withdraw her arm from that guy, as if silently saying, 'yeah, so what?'. Which only infuriated Su Wenyu further.

Su Yuqi had always carried herself this way, viewing others as if they were mere clowns performing foolish acts. She projected an air of superiority, acting as though she were above everyone else. This attitude had always grated on Su Wenyu, who harbored a deep dislike for her cousin because of it. To top it off, their cousins treated Su Yuqi like the leader of their generation solely because she was Uncle Han's only daughter.

How unfair was that? It's Uncle Han who's famous and talented, not her! So why should they extend the same courtesy to Su Yuqi? The other wasn't even interested in traditional painting to begin with. Why couldn't their other cousins see how dissatisfied the elders in their family were with Su Yuqi?

Because the elders had already given up the hope that Su Yuqi would carry the mantle of the Su family after her father, there were talks that a talented artist would be chosen as her fiance and let that person marry into the family. Su Wenyu already knew who would be chosen. Who else but the most talented apprentice among Uncle Han's proteges?

Thinking of that, Su Wenyu couldn't help but glare at Su Yuqi. And then her gaze happened to land on the guy she's with. A dry laugh escaped her lips.

"So, this is your type," she said, while looking at the guy from head to toe with a mocking gaze. "I'm glad you picked someone at your level. At least the elders won't have to force Brother Ning to be your fiance."

Su Jingyi almost shook her head when she heard that. [Argh. Why is Sister Wenyu always embarrassing herself like this?]

Luo Jin felt the corner of his eye twitching when he heard the word 'fiance'. What kind of fiance should be picked by the elders of the family? Not even her parents, but the elders? Hadn't anyone informed them that they were living in modern times, not some ancient era?

Nevertheless, what he heard still annoyed the heck out of him. He was about to give some smartass response to this woman when he heard a soft laughter beside him. He turned to look at Su Yuqi and saw that the other was really laughing.

After she finished laughing, she looked at her cousin as if looking at some fool who didn't know they were a fool.

"Of course, the third young master of the Tianhua Group is on my level," Su Yuqi said. The corner of her lips lifted slightly. It's hard to say whether she's smirking or simply mocking the person she's talking to. "And don't associate me with Ning Feng. If you like that guy, go and tell the elders you want to be his wife of something. Don't just make a fantasy inside your head that I would want to marry the guy. Because in the real world we're living in, that will never happen. Do you understand? Or do I have to speak to the elders one by one and tell them I will never marry Ning Feng for you to understand?"

The face of the woman named Su Wenyu turned crimson. From anger or embarrassment, Luo Jin was not sure. She deserved that, though.

Su Yuqi only rolled her eyes when Su Wenyu couldn't give a single rebuttal. She turned to Su Jingyi. "I'll see you later, Jingyi."

"Yes, Sister Yuqi," Su Jingyi said, trying to brighten up her voice.

Then Su Yuqi pulled Luo Jin away from the two. When they walked a considerable distance, she heard Luo Jin asked; n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"So... who is this Ning Feng?"
