C41

Time flew by very quickly. The appointed time would arrive in half an hour.

The servant brought over the lunch as usual, but Su Wanbai did not move a muscle.

Staring at the clock on the wall, Su Wanbai became more and more agitated. Andy must be carefully organizing everything now, and very soon, she would be able to see her little brother and mother. Although they hadn't been separated for long, her longing for them had only grown. For the first time in her life, she regretted her willful departure. There was nothing more valuable in the world than living with her loved ones. Now that her father had left, she only had these two relatives left.

An ear-piercing car horn sounded, pulling Su Wanbai who had sunk into deep thought back to reality.

What? Why did Murong Aotian suddenly return at this time?

Su Wanbai was in a bit of a daze. A few seconds later, her mind went blank as she ran to the window.

The tall figure stepped out of the car and looked in that direction, intentionally or unintentionally. Su Wanbai was a little guilty of being a bandit, so she dodged and leaned against the thick curtains, causing her heart to beat even faster. Could someone have leaked the news? Impossible? He had no reason to know she was running away. The pigeon had only passed her hand, and she had dealt with the note. Could it be that a servant had found the phone?

Su Wanbai turned over the flower pot at the corner. Oh my god, the phone was actually gone!

After she and Andy exchanged text messages, they emptied the mailbox.

However, Murong Aotian was paranoid by nature, after a servant reported to him, he immediately rushed back. Coincidentally, he returned just as she was preparing to escape.

It's over! It's over!

Su Wanbai's face turned pale white. She sat on the bed in a daze as she tried to think of a way to remedy the situation.

The door was pushed open with force, and Murong Aotian came in like the wind as his thick hands grabbed onto Su Wanbai's snow-white neck. His godlike handsome face seemed to be covered in a thick layer of frost. He just stared at her, a bottomless vortex in his eyes. Su Wanbai only felt as if her entire body was struck by lightning, feeling numbed and in pain. She only needed to look at him twice, before feeling as though her soul was being snatched away by that gloomy gaze.

"You want to leave?" Murong Aotian asked with a hoarse voice.

"Nope." Su Wanbai pretended to be calm and collected.

"I know!" Murong Aotian suddenly let go of his hand and retreated a few steps.

Su Wanbai lowered her head and did not speak. Murong Aotian had only guessed that she had contacted Andy before and did not know that he would be here very soon. Many times, this man was too confident.

He felt that if he blindfolded her and brought her here, the address would become a secret. He thought he had sent so many bodyguards to guard her that she couldn't escape.

Su Wanbai peeked at the clock on the wall. It was already ten minutes to midnight.

"I can't leave even if I wanted to. What are you worried about? Go back and get busy with your work, I don't want to be in the same room with you! " Su Wanbai coldly ordered them to leave.

Murong Aotian raised his head, looked at Su Wanbai deeply, and turned to leave the room.

Su Wanbai peeked her head out of the back window. Some of the the guards in the garden were already asleep.

Five minutes later, Murong Aotian actually came in again.

"Why aren't you leaving?" Su Wanbai opened her eyes wide in shock.

"This is my home!" Murong Aotian said with a cold face.

The only hope he had was instantly gone. Now, he really couldn't leave anymore.

The hour hand pointed to a single point, and Su Wanbai's mood dropped to the freezing point along with it.

"Andy did not come. Are you disappointed?" Murong Aotian held a glass of red wine in his hand, and looked at her devilishly.

"What?" You... "How do you know?" Su Wanbai could not believe her own ears.

Murong Aotian's bodyguards were not ordinary people. A pigeon mysteriously flew over and they successfully robbed it. After reporting to the young master, they followed his instructions and altered the contents of the note. Originally, Andy had wanted to come and save her in the middle of the night. Murong Aotian suddenly had a bad taste and wanted to play a joke on him. One in the morning had changed to one in the afternoon, making her happy for a few hours. Perhaps she would eat when she was happy. He didn't expect that she would have such backbone, and it was because he had yet to advance a single grain.

"Are you messing with me?" Su Wanbai glared at Murong Aotian angrily and raised her hand to give him a slap.

Murong Aotian held her hand, sniffed her hand under his nose, and then kissed his lightly.

"Women are still more obedient. Being too unyielding will only anger men!" Murong Aotian stared at Su Wanbai playfully.

"Miss Hu is very clever, didn't you throw her aside like before, and you didn't even let the child in her arms go?" Su Wanbai looked up, at that moment in time, he only wanted to anger him.

Murong Aotian seemed to have heard the words that the weather was good, his expression was indifferent, as though the one who killed was not him.

"Why are you so cold-blooded? Aren't you raised by your parents? " Su Wanbai asked.

Murong Aotian didn't seem to want to answer her question. He pinched her chin and fiercely kissed it.

Su Wanbai clenched her teeth and resisted his invasion, but his tongue was so nimble. As she played with her lips and teeth, Su Wanbai relaxed a little and slipped in. No matter how much he savored her pure and sweet beauty, he just couldn't taste enough of her.

"Young master, Second Young Master has sent someone to deliver the invitation. The wedding will be held on the 8th next month!" Housekeeper Li's gentle voice sounded outside the door.

Murong Aotian seemed to not have heard him as he had an intoxicated look on his face. He impatiently tore open Su Wanbai's collar and wildly kissed her beautiful collarbone and chest. Su Wanbai had not eaten anything for two days, how could the frail her have the strength to fight against such a sturdy male beast? She fell limply into his arms, letting him knead and hold her.

"Young master, his fiancee is... Hu Xiaodie! " Housekeeper Li had not left yet, but she seemed to have made a great deal of resolution before she said those words.

Murong Aotian was like an enraged lion as he turned his head abruptly, wanting to curse Housekeeper Li a few times. Unexpectedly, after she said this, he felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head, and his whole body was emitting a strong chill from the inside to the outside. Su Wanbai noticed the change in his expression and quickly left, lowering her head and tidying up his messy long hair and clothes.

Hu Xiaodie is the Miss Hu who was forced to have an abortion, right? In just a few short days, she was going to marry Murong Aotian's little brother? This was too outrageous! True love? Impossible! Women were stubborn. Murong Aotian being so cruel to her left only one goal in entering Murong Family, and that was to exact his revenge. However, Murong Aotian had never been afraid of anything, let alone revenge. Then what was going on? What was he afraid of this time?

Su Wanbai thought, but after thinking about it for a while, she felt that she was bored. What did the grudges between the Wealthy Class have to do with her? What she needed to do now was to think of a way to notify Andy and ask him to cancel the operation. Since Murong Aotian already knew their plans, he would definitely send more people to guard against them. Then, Andy would just walk right into their trap. She had already lost her father, so she couldn't just watch Andy die in Murong Aotian's hands.

She must think of a way, she must!

Murong Aotian was sitting in his study, listening attentively to the Housekeeper Li's report.

The Housekeeper Li had just sent someone to investigate and found out that Hu Xiaodie had just become the adopted daughter of one of the three great families, the Old Master Nangong. In truth, the adopted daughter was only meant for outsiders to hear, Hu Xiaodie was the illegitimate daughter of the Old Master Nangong. Before Hu Xiaodie's mother passed away, she found the Old Master Nangong and entrusted her daughter to him. Old Master Nangong used to love Hu Xiaodie's mother a lot, so he dashed through the layers of obstruction to recognize his daughter. However, in front of the tough Mrs. Nangong, he had no choice but to say that he had taken his in as his adopted daughter.

Then, what was she planning to do with his own brother? He could even guess with his toes that the Nangong Family was trying to get Hu Xiaodie to break into the Murong Family. Murong Aojie was simply a good-for-nothing snack, fanning flames beside him was an easy task. Murong Aojie's mother did not have any status, and up till now, he was still an unrecognized Second Young Master. If he teamed up with them to deal with Murong Aotian, then the chances of winning would be much greater. Once Murong Aojie seized the power in the future, all of the Murong Family would belong to them. And there was also Nangong Family's eldest miss, Nangong Bingjie, who was already engaged with the Second Young Master Jin. If that happened, S City would truly be a world of Nangong Family in the future. To dominate a region was the dream of the Old Master Nangong for many years. Now that he finally had the possibility to achieve it, he would probably wake up from his dream.

"Young Master, we will most likely be attacked from the back in the future!" The Housekeeper Li's analysis of the future situation hit the nail on the head.

Murong Aotian smiled but didn't speak. Actually, Murong Aotian wasn't discouraged by the upcoming situation. His only worry was that his only brother would be reduced to tools and cannon fodder. He, who was usually not immune to beauties, would be too pitiful if he was caught by Hu Xiaodie. Murong Aotian had never placed anyone in his eyes, including his little brother. However, when he thought about his future, he felt a bit of heartache.

"Stop them from getting married at all costs!" Murong Aotian said as he gnashed his teeth. His eyes burned with an unknown light.

Housekeeper Li was a little doubtful, but he quickly understood the young master's meaning.

He could hate his father, and he could disdain his stepmother either, but this little brother of his had the same level of blood as him. No matter how cold or distant he was, he was still a blood brother. There was no reason for him to jump into a fire pit.

Although Murong Aojie had a good impression of Hu Xiaodie, he wasn't infatuated to the point of not marrying her. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Nangong and her mother Fang Wenlan had only whispered a few words before she straightforwardly agreed to this marriage.

Murong Aojie didn't see any good impression of him in Hu Xiaodie's eyes, the moth flying in the wind and her bitterness made him shudder. If such a woman were to be married into his family, his carefree and happy days would come to an end.
