Shen Wan replied, “Alright, I’ll take care of your little troublemaker for you first. Don’t worry, it’s on the house, free of charge.”
Lushen was speechless, cursing inwardly, “What?! Little troublemaker?!”
The call ended, and Shen Wan’s eyes sparkled as she looked at him with a smile. “Seventh Lord, 1 apologize for the inconvenience. Please have a seat here with me for a while. When Quan Ranting arrives, he’ll explain to you why the flowers are so red. I believe the answer will make you – very satisfied.”
In the last two words, Lushen sensed a hint of threat, and he couldn’t help but shiver.
What did she mean by “very satisfied”?
His anger flared up instantly. “Shen Wan, if you have the guts, face me alone! How dare you use Sixth Brother to pressure me?!”
She replied confidently, “What’s the problem with that?”
“…” Damn it!
The two of them stared at each other for a minute, but Lushen eventually gave in and gritted his teeth. “Fine, let’s see how this plays out!” With that, he acted like he was leaving.
“Seventh Lord, please stay.”
“Stay my foot!” He kept walking, sounding furious. In reality, he was worried about Quan Hanting’s imminent arrival. If he stayed, would he just get scolded?
Shen Wan let out a soft sigh and said in a melancholic tone, “Do you think my place is somewhere you can come and go as you please?”
Just as she finished speaking, the door swung open from the outside, and Miao Miao entered with five security guards. “It’s him, catch him!”
Twenty minutes later, Quan Ranting and Chu Yujiang entered the room and found Lushen sitting on the sofa, his hands tied behind his back, looking disheveled.
“Sixth Brother—” Lushen’s eyes brightened when he saw Quan Ranting. He immediately looked pitiful and choked up, his voice trembling. “I’ve been bullied by this wicked woman. You must help me seek revenge… sniffles…”
His expression was a mix of resentment, admiration, tears, and complaints.
Quan Ranting did not utter a reply.
Chu Yujiang was speechless.
Shen Wan was quiet.
A strange silence filled the room for two seconds. Quan Ranting walked over to Shen Wan, and Chu Yujiang helped untie Lushen.
“Sixth Uncle,” Shen Wan, as the younger one, spoke first, her smile never fading.
“Why did you tie up my Seventh Brother? What’s the meaning of this?” His voice was cold, and his expression even colder. He wasn’t joking; he was seriously questioning why his brother was treated this way.
Shen Wan didn’t find it surprising at all.
After all, brothers were like limbs, and women were like clothes. Moreover, this was a woman with whom he had only shared a one-night stand.
“Because he deserved it!”
Quan Ranting frowned, “You said just now that Seventh Brother wanted to kill you. What’s going on?”
“Seventh Lord said that if I didn’t hand over the bracelet, he would make me understand why the flowers are so red. I asked him why, and he said because they were stained with blood.”
At that moment, Chu Yujiang brought Lushen over after untying him. Quan Ranting grabbed Lushen by the collar and pushed him onto the office desk.
“Ouch!” Lushen wailed and turned to look at him, his pitiful expression resembling a puppy getting a scolding. “Sixth Brother, be gentle! It hurts, hurts, hurts…”
“Did you say those words?”
H H
“Lushen!”
“Okay, okay, maybe I did…”
“Chu Yujiang!” Quan Hanting’s voice was stern.
“Yes, lord.”
“Take him out of here!”
“Understood.” Chu Yujiang stepped forward and began escorting Lushen out.
“Xiao Jiangjiang, let’s make a deal. If you let me go, I’ll treat you to a meal next time. How about it?”
“Not interested.”
Lushen panicked. “Come on… If I get dragged back like this, I’ll definitely get scolded. Can’t you let me go?”
“Young Seventh Lord, just calm down. Sixth Lord means business this time. If you behave yourself, you might have a chance for a more lenient resolution.”
Lushen suddenly felt like the whole world had turned dark..
