Her eyes were warm and cold, and her face was handsome, yet somewhat familiar. Moreover, there was an unconcealable joy in his eyes.
"Fleeting Time …" The man groaned before suddenly standing up and walking towards her. Under everyone's gazes, he brought her out of the room.
Before Xu Liunian could react, she was pushed to the corner of a wall by a man, her posture extremely warm.
"We know each other?" Xu Liunian hid the ripples in her heart and smiled seductively.
Cen Linrong's expression stiffened: "Fleeting Time, could it be that you've never remembered me? Where have you been these four years? How did we end up here? "
A string of three questions, and that similar tone of voice made Xu Liunian think of a person in an instant.
After four years, a person had changed so much. The former senior was sunny and handsome, just like a big boy. Now, he was calm and gentle, and every move he made gave off a sense of nobility.
It turned out that four years could change many people and things.
Xu Liunian avoided his gaze and taunted: "Teacher has mistaken me. If you're drinking with me, and if you intentionally cause trouble, then I won't be in the mood to accompany you!"
She broke free from Cen Linrong's imprisonment, and in the next moment, was once again controlled by him in a corner.
Cen Linrong looked at this woman in front of him, who was completely different from how she used to be. He only felt endless heartache and pity.
He held her shoulders with both hands as he spoke with a gentle expression on his face, "Fleeting Time, please don't push me away so mercilessly. I want you to accompany me for a lifetime. Can I take you away from here?"
These words struck right at Xu Liunian's weak heart and she looked straight into her eyes. It had been four years since so many men said these words to her, but she knew that they were all lies.
But only she, Cen Linrong, could see the true love, possession, and protection in his eyes.
This protection made Xu Liunian feel very dirty, suppressing her so much that she couldn't breathe.
She struggled free from Cen Linrong and rejected him, "I don't need it …"
Before he could finish his words, a cold voice interrupted him. "You are not qualified! I have already taken care of her! "
Xu Liunian turned her head in surprise and saw Lu Jianqing walking towards him.
Why is he here?
Lu Jianqing and Cen Linrong's eyes met, sparks flew in all directions, and the smell of gunpowder permeated the air.
The upper class was not large, so they both knew each other.
Seeing that, she immediately changed her mind and smiled as she embraced Cen Linrong's waist. "Young Master Cen, don't mind me. "Since Young Master Cen is willing to help me, then I naturally have no reason to reject."
Compared to Lu Jianqing, she would rather choose Cen Linrong. Because she was afraid that he would be unable to extricate himself from loving Lu Jianqing and letting his sister down.
"Alright." The bottom of Cen Linrong's eyes hurt slightly, he retracted his gaze, hugged Fleeting Time, and was about to take her away.
"Wait!" Lu Jianqing's eyes turned cold, he pulled on Xu Liunian's wrist with all her strength to prevent her from leaving, and said coldly: "Even if I destroy the woman I've touched, I can't give it to anyone else!"
Xu Liunian's face turned white, and Lu Jianqing's words continued to resonate in his mind.
Did he really hate her so much that he didn't care if it was destroyed?
Cen Linrong was stunned for a few seconds before accepting the cruel reality, but he held onto Fleeting Time's wrist even more tightly, not giving in at all.
"So what if it is? I don't mind, I'm going to get her! "
"Is that so?" The corners of Lu Jianqing's mouth curled up in an evil spirit as he lifted up Xu Liunian's chin and slowly rubbed it, "You pestered me for an entire night that night, other than me, who else can make you do this, hm?!"
Xu Liunian's body suddenly stiffened as she looked at him in disbelief.
"If you dare to disobey me, your friend will be arrested and brought back to China within an hour."
Xu Liunian's face immediately paled, and under his threatening gaze, she released Cen Linrong's hand.
"Fleeting Time, you …" Cen Linrong clenched his empty palms tightly, and looked at Xu Liunian in disbelief.
"That's more like it." Lu Jianqing laughed satisfactorily as he bent down to pick Xu Liunian up in one go, then knocked Cen Linrong away and left.
Cen Linrong watched the two leave and punched the wall in anger.
Xu Liunian was stuffed into the car and brought back to his living quarters, a villa in the city.
"You should just stay here!"
With a cold face, Lu Jianqing threw Xu Liunian onto the sofa.
Xu Liunian crawled up, and turned to look at him stubbornly, "I don't, I want to go back."
After saying that, she got up and quickly ran toward the door. However, just as she took a few steps, her neck was grabbed and she was flung against the wall by a tremendous force.
With a "peng" sound, the pain made her eyes sparkle like stars, and her tears almost flowed out.
Before she could even react, her lower jaw was slowly lifted by a big hand as she looked at Lu Jianqing's violent eyes.
"Xu Liunian, are you that worried about Cen Linrong?"
Xu Liunian's face was flushed red, her legs kicking all over the place, "It's none of your business, quickly let go of me!"
Lu Jianqing stretched out his long legs, firmly blocking her body and preventing her from moving an inch. He sneered in ridicule, "You're quite capable, the moment you turn around, you hooked up with Cen Linrong. It was a pity that someone with such a dirty and lowly status like you was worthy of Young Master Cen? It's just a toy that's just for fun. "
A toy that could be thrown for fun?
Xu Liunian's eyes dimmed, was she like this in Lu Jianqing's eyes?
Pausing, she gritted her teeth and ridiculed, "Since you know that I'm filthy and despicable, then why are you still pestering me? Could it be that Director Lu likes those broken shoes that I used to play with? "
"Xu Liunian, shut up!"
Lu Jianqing was instantly enraged, the veins on his fingers bulged, and he wished that he could strangle this woman to death.
"What? Am I right?" Xu Liunian said with difficulty while holding onto her big hands.
Lu Jianqing's head jumped a few times before he suddenly threw Xu Liunian down and roared: "That's because I don't want others to know that Yaran has such a shameless little sister like you! You can degrade yourself however you want, but don't make it so that Yaran won't be able to rest in peace after death! "
Xu Liunian fell to the ground heavily, all the bones in her body almost disintegrating, but it was far from the pain in her chest, and it was so painful that she could barely breathe.
So this was how Lu Jianqing viewed her. She actually didn't even have the qualifications to be a sister.
"Ding ding ding …"
Lu Jianqing's mobile phone rang. He frowned, glanced at it, then hung up, picked up the collapsed Xu Liunian, and threw him into a certain bedroom on the second floor. With a cracking sound, he locked the door from the outside.
"Stay here. Don't leave without my order."
Xu Liunian angrily knocked on the door and bellowed: "Lu Jianqing, why are you locking me up? Let me out! "
Lu Jianqing did not care about the door that was shaking non-stop, he turned to look at the servant who was completely silent and ordered: "Watch carefully, if she runs out, I'll only ask you!"
