When Sun Lin opened the door, he saw the nervous Shen Anyan outside, and a fierce look flashed past his eyes.
"You're eavesdropping."
"..." No, I didn't mean to … "I …"
Shen Anyan timidly took a step back, not daring to look at Sun Lin's terrifying expression. Soon after, he heard He Qinqiu's faint voice — —
"Shen Anyan, do you know that I can make it so that you won't be able to speak anymore in the future?"
Who gave this woman the guts to dare eavesdrop?
However, so what if she overheard it, what ability did Shen Anyan have, the Shen family was just something she looked down on, she wanted to make Shen Anyan lose everything at any time.
"I... "I really didn't mean to, I …"
Shen Anyan bit her lips as the light in her eyes scattered. She was thinking about how she could make He Qinqiu let her go this time.
He had always underestimated this scary woman.
Yet, it turned out that she had already done such a terrifying thing before. No wonder she couldn't find any hint of a connection with Tang Mufan in those few years. No wonder the current Tang Mufan was hiding in the city, no wonder He Qinqiu was so sure that Tang Mufan wouldn't return.
Because, she thought that Tang Mufan had died.
However, Tang Mufan was still alive, and was so alive that he did not want anyone to disturb him.
He couldn't, he couldn't let He Qinqiu know about Tang Mufan's situation, if not with He Qinqiu's methods, he might …
"You must believe me, I am now your daughter-in-law and Yuanhan is my husband. That man harmed my husband, so he … Damn it! I hated him too late to hear that he might have died long ago... I, I was nervous for a moment, but my heart is also much clearer. "
As Shen Anyan spoke these words that went against his heart, his expression did not change. He didn't know, he really thought this woman was happy about the death of the sinner who harmed her husband, but He Qinqiu was not an ordinary person.
He smiled coldly.
Shen Anyan, oh Shen Anyan, others don't understand, how could I not know what you are thinking?
"Sun Lin, you go back first."
In the end, he only told Sun Lin to go back, and didn't do anything to Shen Anyan.
However, a warning was left behind, along with a threatening warning —
Shen Anyan, you don't want your brother to become the second Tang Mufan, and you don't want your everything to be for naught, you should be smarter. In my eyes, you're no different from Lu Shen's dog. The only difference is, I think … You are a dog that understands human speech, and you know how to satisfy me.
Shen Anyan bit her lips hard, and a hint of red appeared on her lips.
Looking at He Qinqiu's leaving figure, she couldn't help but want to step forward and grab onto that person's throat so that she could have a taste of the pain of being restrained.
A dog that understands human speech...
Shen Anyan's blood-stained lips raised into a cold arc. Perhaps one day, you will lose to me, a dog.
Night fell. In the underground bar, Chi Han swirled the wine in her cup, and the men who came over to chat up continued to chat. She who had long gotten used to this scene sat quietly tonight, ignoring everyone.
"Sister Han, what happened to you tonight?"
The girl who was drinking at the bar bar was just a person who was working while attending university. When she came here, she was bullied by the customers, and it was Chi Han who helped her get rid of the customers who were looking for fun. Every time Chi Han came here, he would take care of her, even though the wine she made wasn't really good.
"Nothing, there's been some improvement."
As he spoke, he drained the cup of liquid.
Little Mo filled the bag for the woman again and said with a faint smile:
"I know Sister Han. You think I can be a bartender, and often let some of your friends take care of me." Otherwise, the boss would have resigned me long ago. "
"What's the matter? You're still young. If you study for another year or two, you'll definitely become the most outstanding bartender here."
After receiving the encouragement, Little Mo confidently nodded her head, and then she thought of something, and asked with a few traces of a probing tone:
"About that, I heard that …" It seems like Young Master Lu hasn't been here for a long time, you and him … "Fear!"
This was Lu Shen's territory, there were many women who were related to Lu Shen, but Little Mo had always thought that Chi Han was different from the rest.
"It's just a game between men and women. It's over. "Oh right, I heard that a mixed blood man has recently come here to do that kind of work. I wonder if he has been hired by someone tonight."
"Ah …" "Sister Han, you can't be …"
Little Mo was stunned. Although Sister Han usually loved to play, this was the first time she said she wanted to talk to Niu Lang.
"Is that no good? Quickly go and help me find it. I also want to see how beautiful that mixed blood is."
Just like this, Little Mo didn't know if she did the right thing, and when she brought Mike in front of Chi Han, who looked a little drunk, her expression was a little bad.
Although she, a girl who had just turned eighteen, didn't know much about the world of adults, finding a bull sounded like a mistake. But looking at Big Sister Han's expression tonight, she didn't dare to stop them.
"Hello, this is Mike."
If it wasn't for the fact that he had white skin and blue eyes, Chi Han would have thought that he was talking to a standard Chinese.
Her blurry eyes were filled with charm as she looked at the beautiful European man in front of her. "Tsk, tsk. You really are something to do."
Mike took the opportunity to wrap his arm around the drunk woman's waist. When Little Mo saw this scene, her face immediately blushed. Although she had seen a lot of things in the bar, she would still …
"Drink with me."
Mike sat down next to her gently.
In just a short while, the two of them drank a few cups of special wine. The woman lightly pursed her red lips as a hint of coquettishness could be seen in her smile.
Time passed, and Mike said she was drunk and would be taken away.
He naturally knew where he was going.
However, Chi Han shook her head and smiled, saying that she was not drunk yet.
"Big sister Han, Young Master Lu is here."
Well, who's here?
Chi Han's body swayed a little. She wanted to stand up from the chair at the bar counter, but her legs gave way and she fell back to her original position. She almost fell down, but luckily the white and tender bull held her back.
She let out a soft laugh as she raised her eyes to meet some extremely cold gaze.
In that moment, Chi Han felt his body tremble.
In the end, he still came. After waiting for an entire night, he still thought that he wouldn't come.
Lu Shen stood not far from the counter and could immediately see the drunk woman leaning on the young girl's chest, smiling charmingly. His knowledgeable eyes suddenly narrowed.
"I'm drunk. Take me away."
The soft white hand went up to Mike's neck, and he, like every cowherd who worked here, met all the needs of his customers.
Little Mo couldn't understand, didn't Sister Han stay here to drink all night just to wait for Young Master Lu?
But why did Young Master Lu come and leave?
But when Mike was about to take the woman by the waist and take her away...
"Let her go."
That person's voice didn't have much warmth, but it was enough to make one feel chilled to the bone.
Mike was a newcomer, so he naturally didn't know that the man in front of him was Lu Shen. He held onto the woman's body as if he was unwilling to let go.
As for Chi Han, a trace of deep understanding flashed past his eyes.
There was only a fleeting moment of hesitation. She raised her eyes and saw that person's handsome face. She pulled out a smile that was thirty percent charming and seventy percent bitter.
"Young Master Lu, I'm only here for fun. Are you not allowed to?"
Just a simple sentence, yet it landed in the ears of the man, causing Yishen to feel cold.
But Lu Shen didn't say anything, his powerful palm unceremoniously grabbed the woman's wrist, and forcibly pulled her out of the arms of the bull boy …
The moment he neared that familiar aura, Chi Han seemed to have felt an unfamiliar feeling of boiling heat surrounding her.
And so he held her freedom, not letting her free, and in his eyes there was a knowledge she could not understand.
Chi Han did not even dare to look at her eyes.
He squeezed out a faint smile, and his words were filled with ridicule —
"What is Young Master Lu doing? He's not saying he'll never see me again, so what are you pulling me along for now?"
"You're drunk, I'll take you back."
Saying that, she was almost given no chance to reject him, and her body was restrained as she followed him.
If she was drunk, then she was drunk. If she was drunk, then there was no need to think too much about it. If she was drunk, then even if what she did was wrong, she could blame it on alcohol.
He didn't know how he was taken to his car. He only knew that the person driving the car didn't say anything along the way. His expression was terrifyingly cold.
"Stop the car."
Ten minutes later, a woman's low voice could be heard.
However, the man turned a deaf ear to him, and Chi Han's clear voice had a tinge of temper — —
"I want to get off! I feel terrible!"
Was it the drink or the car?
The carriage finally stopped, and Chi Han was about to get off without thinking. It was as if he didn't want to be with this man for another second.
The moment the car door opened, she heard that person's voice — —
"Why did you approach me at the beginning?"
Chi Han stopped moving. Heh, actually, even she herself did not know what she was thinking back then.
Presumably, Lu Shen went to investigate her.
Then, what did he find out?
The man's expression was deep. Indeed, he had let people investigate Chi Han's past.
Only a little, but it was enough.
She was a lost girl adopted more than a decade ago by her long-lived family.
His age was also the same as when Huan Er left the orphanage all those years ago.
Therefore —
Chi Han raised a faint smile, and replied without the slightest hesitation — —
"Because you are rich, because I want to marry into the Wealthy Class, because I want to catch you, this golden son of a bitch. Isn't Young Master Lu clear about this?"
Indeed, this was her goal from the start.
Only, it was different now.
"But now I don't think so. Young Master Lu is not someone a woman like me can ever hope to get to. Realizing your own identity, didn't Young Master Lu always want me to do it? "
"You're blaming me."
These four words came out of his mouth, but it was no longer the same meaning as before.
Chi Han thought that her acting skills must be pretty good, if not Young Master Lu, who usually played with her, would walk into her trap step by step this time.
"No, I don't blame you. It doesn't matter if it was in the past or now. "
"I should leave now. Goodbye."
As she spoke the last two words, the man's warm palm had already pressed down on the back of her hand, enveloping it with warmth.
Chi Han's body slightly froze, and his eyes flashed. In his ears, Lu Shen's low and quiet voice that was as warm as the cold of night could be heard as well.
"Huan Er, is that you?"
Huan Er, a name that she was unfamiliar with but had to be familiar with.
As her hand pulled away from the heat, she simply smiled. It was a smile filled with bitterness, but also self-mockery.
"Sorry, mistaken identity."
To be able to say to him with a smile, to recognize the wrong person. They both understood what it meant.
For a long time after she had left, he did not start the car.
The smoke rings were like waves of clouds, reflecting the scenes from the depths of those memories.
At that time, she said, Teddy bear, will you come and pick me up?
At that time, he had promised to take her with him.
At that time, he didn't have the ability to do it. He could only watch as the girl chased after the car and gradually disappeared.
She'd been waiting, and the teddy bears on the swing had all been covered in dust, but he'd never come back.
Later, there was no later.
