His decisiveness infuriated Qi Junhao, and he tried his best to hold back the anger of tearing her to shreds. He reached out his hand, and pulled his into his embrace along with the blanket, "You want to draw a clear line between us? "In your dreams!"

"Then what do you want?" Li Mengqi gritted her teeth, her heart aching. For a moment, almost all of the unbearable pain was about to be vented out.

Qi Junhao's face darkened, his deep black eyes filled with confusion. The corner of his beautiful lips curled up into an evil smile, but her smile didn't reach her eyes, as if he was a devil from hell: "You're right about one thing. Women to men are nothing but playthings to vent …"

After a slight pause, his tone became even more sinister. "But you, you made me sick of it all at once."

His gaze had previously made her heart beat, but now it caused her heart to die. It was filled with disdain and disdain, making her so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole in the ground to hide in!

"You — —" Li Mengqi lightly blinked her eyelashes, and her eyes turned red. Before she could cry, she felt his warm breath on her neck, "Although I'm tired of it, don't think you can get away from it …"

Boom!

These words were like a sudden clap of thunder that exploded.

Li Mengqi was sweating profusely, and a chill gradually went down her spine. Her originally sweet voice suddenly turned cold, "What are you trying to do?"

"What for?" Qi Junhao smirked as he took out his phone and casually tossed it in front of her, "Have a good look, are you beautiful?"

"Hiss — —" Li Mengqi sucked in a deep breath, her eyes roaming over the video on the screen. Her face was so red that it seemed as if it was going to bleed. In an instant, she felt like the world was about to fall apart.

How could this despicable and shameless villain record everything that happened last night?

What was he trying to do?

Did he really want to threaten her, or even threaten her elder brother?

Bastard, how can this be?

She clutched her cell phone in grief and indignation, wishing she could throw it at the ground, but she didn't dare. She also didn't want to part with it. How sad, at this time, what filled his heart, was actually reluctant!

She bit down on her delicate lips until they turned white. A flash of hatred flashed past Li Mengqi's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a deep sense of grievance.

His body was already very uncomfortable, yet he still bullied her like this and even placed her in such a lowly place …

This is too much!

Angry and exasperated, she could not bear it any longer and suddenly bit his arm so hard that he frowned.

"Qi Junhao, you bastard!"

She sobbed, her vision suddenly blurred, tears welled up in her eyes, and soon two streams of tears fell uncontrollably, like pearls with their strings cut, filling her cheeks.

When the man saw this, his heart ached faintly. He really wanted to hug her in his embrace and coax her to kiss her, but the little bit of pride he had left made him unable to lower his head!

There were some things that seemed to have a fixed conclusion. For example, he and her had unknowingly returned to the same track they had six years ago. To her, he was like a cage in hell, a shackle that she couldn't escape. But to him, wasn't that the same as well?

Thinking of this, he got up, took out an agreement from the safe, threw it in front of her, and solemnly said: "Sign it, then you can spread it around in the future!"

Li Mengqi choked and wiped her tears. Before she could read the contents, she tore the contract, her voice was somewhat hysterical, "I won't sign! Don't even think about threatening me. Today, I'm the one who is blind enough to misjudge you! "

Not only was she wrong about him, she was also wrong about him …

She was really silly and naive!

Her brother was right, she couldn't afford to offend someone like Qi Junhao. But now, she wanted to hide. She wanted to hide far away, to hide to the ends of the earth …

At this moment, she truly hated herself for not achieving her goals. She hated herself for not putting her elder brother's kindness in her eyes …

If elder brother knew, how disappointed would he be?

Li Mengqi's reaction was slightly out of Qi Junhao's expectation, but —

For the past six years, her stubborn and proud little temper hadn't changed at all.

"Not sign?" He raised his eyebrows and his tone became even colder, "Then let's exchange that disgraced person for Li Jianzhong."

What did he mean?

Do we really have to deal with our big brother?

Li Mengqi froze and came back to her senses. She casually picked up the pillow beside her and ruthlessly threw it at him — —

"You despicable, shameless bastard, you will be punished!"

The biggest retribution in his life was to fall in love with her, who had left him behind!

But now, he didn't want to love anymore.

All his efforts would be in vain. He was tired!

He threw an unopened set of clothes straight at her. His tone carried a hint of determination as he said, "Wear it now and scram!"

A gentleness that even he could not detect was concealed within that cold and detached expression, and she, who was immersed in grief and indignation, would not even notice it …

When Li Mengqi arrived home, she happened to run into Li Jianzhong, who was walking out the door in a flurry of anxiety.

"Little girl, where did you go last night? Why can't you call me?" When Li Jianzhong saw his sister, his taut and handsome face finally softened slightly.

He had worked late at the police station last night, so he decided to stay the night. He wanted to go home this morning to pick up his sister and go back to B City to celebrate his grandfather's birthday.

Li Mengqi had always been a good girl under her brother's control. She had almost never come home past 11 o'clock. Now that she hadn't come home for the night, it was impossible for Li Jianzhong to not be worried. Not to mention that her phone was still turned off.

He was just about to go out and find her, but the moment he opened the door, he saw his little sister standing at the door, looking at the maple leaves flying all over the place.

"I had dinner with a friend last night, everyone had too much to drink, so I found a nearby hotel to rest. There's no power on my phone, so I can't call you. Sorry, big brother, I made you worry. " Li Mengqi came back to her senses and lightly explained, but she secretly sighed in her heart. It seemed that the number of times she had lied to her big brother in the past few months was too many to count.

"So that's how it is. In the future, no matter how happy you are, you shouldn't drink too much alcohol. When girls are out, their safety is the most important, do you understand?" As an experienced sister, Li Jianzhong began lecturing again.

"Yes, I know." Li Mengqi nodded, looking very obedient.

Li Jianzhong broke into laughter. Just as he was about to reach out and knock her on the head, his handsome eyes subconsciously glanced at her clothes.

Today, she was wearing a blue dress with a high collar. It was a reasonable cut, perfectly outlining her exquisite figure. When matched with his wavy long hair, it made his appear even more charming. This kind of sister was very pretty, moreover, he seemed to have a more feminine air than usual. But the more he was like this, the more Li Jianzhong felt that something was wrong, because —

His precious sister had never been fond of luxury goods, and this set of hers was obviously not cheap. It was completely out of character for her to be diligent and thrifty, and coupled with the fact that she hadn't been home all night …

The sensitivity of her profession caused Li Jianzhong to be unable to restrain a little bit more interested in her.

Li Mengqi's heart skipped a beat. Initially, she was secretly glad that she had successfully passed the test, but she did not expect her brother to be so sharp. Sigh, she had a big brother Holmes by her side, yet she did not know whether to be happy or worried.

Thinking about that, she smiled and tried her best to look natural, "Isn't it because I didn't like her buying it, so I gave it to me a few days ago?" "Well, is it good?"

Perhaps it was because she had been a host for too long, but she had long since trained her ability to adapt to the situation to a certain extent. Even when she faced her big brother, whose reputation was spread far and wide, she could still keep him in check and control.

However, facing Qi Junhao —

When she thought about how he treated her so badly that morning, Li Mengqi felt as if a needle had ruthlessly pierced her heart, causing her to feel pain.

A woman is strange. She clearly said that she wouldn't love him, but she still couldn't resist being attracted by him. Even though she knew his true appearance of being cold-blooded and ruthless, she still secretly made many excuses for him. How laughable …

Li Mengqi's thoughts went back and forth, but Li Jianzhong didn't understand. His sister's explanation was reasonable, and it finally dispelled his doubts. Coupled with her indifferent expression, perhaps he was too sensitive.

Thinking of this, Li Jianzhong's expression softened a little. He nodded and praised, "It's very pretty. Let's just wear it to see grandpa today."

The Li family was considered a reputable family in B City. Old Master Li, Li Zhaozheng, had been a high-ranking member of the police force. Therefore, although he kept a low profile, many people still came to the birthday banquet.

The two siblings finally reached home. From afar, they could see their own house, which was filled with all kinds of cars, inside and out.

"Big Brother, why are there so many people?" Li Mengqi sat in the front passenger seat and slightly frowned. She remembered that her grandfather probably didn't send out invitations to outsiders. Those who came to congratulate him were way too well-informed.

"The eightieth birthday is a very happy day. Perhaps those people will remember the old gramps." Li Jianzhong's deep eyes instantly dimmed. It was obvious that most of the people who came today were his leaders.

When Grandpa was at the throne, he was loyal and loyal. He did have many followers, especially with the higher ups in the police force. There was a high chance that they were all disciples that he had trained in the past.

Li Jianzhong was a very ambitious and high-minded person. He didn't want to rely on the old man's power to gain recognition, so he was especially disgusted by the so-called money rights transactions. It could be said that everything he possessed was personally fought for by himself.

Of course, Li Mengqi knew her big brother's thoughts, so she couldn't help but pat his arm and gently persuade him, "Big brother, I know you don't like to climb up to the top, but in today's society, relationships are still very important. Although you can do it, if someone wants to frame you, you have no way to guard against them. I think I might as well take this opportunity to get on good terms with those people. If something happens in the future, there will be people who can help you speak up, no? "

In fact, she was also a very lofty person. However, she did not want her big brother to be like her. After all, if that were the case, the road ahead would be too difficult! Her big brother was the future of the Li family, so she naturally hoped that he would be able to rise above the clouds and become even more successful than her grandfather.

"Well, you're right." Li Jianzhong clearly listened to his sister's words, and his handsome face looked somewhat relieved. Li Jianzhong couldn't help but feel a sense of pride as an elder brother as he watched his younger sister grow up under his protection. Perhaps his understanding of these matters was even more thorough than his own.

It seemed like the little girl had grown up.

The Li family estate was a classic ancient structure. When he walked into the courtyard, what entered his sight was a sea of light red flowers. The autumn prunes, in the breeze, softly spit out their starlike stamens, pale red and lavender, tufted and open, dotted the wide courtyard.

Li Mengqi remembered that the last time she came home, the plum blossom had not even blossomed. She did not expect to see them standing against the wind, looking so charming. In an instant, her mood was affected, and she even started walking.

Li Jianzhong, who was walking behind his sister, unconsciously quickened his pace when he saw her bright smile.

The moment he entered, he saw Old Man Li sitting in the main seat, while the rosewood chairs on both sides of the room were also filled with people.

Some sharp-eyed people noticed them and hurriedly ran over. In a flash, they threw themselves into Li Mengqi's arms and affectionately called out to her, "Auntie!"

Seeing her nephew, Li Mengqi's mood became even better. She bent down and picked up the little shota, "Aiyo, Fan Fan is so heavy that even my aunt can't carry him anymore."

"Then Auntie, you have to exercise more." Li Yunfan held onto Li Mengqi's neck, then looked towards Li Jianzhong and spoke with a stern tone, "Daddy, did you not supervise Aunt's running and let her be lazy?"

"Stinking brat, it's not like your aunt is a cop. Do you need to train every day?" Li Mengqi could not help but pinch his chubby cheeks and intentionally grind her teeth.

"Aunt, you're already 25. If you don't train now, you'll get old easily." "You can't get married in the first place, don't tell me that you're old and want me to raise you?" The little shota's dark eyes were full of mischief.

"Stinking brat, how did your dad raise such a venomous son like you?" Li Mengqi shook her head and put him on the ground. Then she stomped her feet and said to Li Jianzhong in a spoiled manner, "Big brother, you have to strengthen your manners as a child so that the Li family doesn't have to raise any crooked seedlings."

"Aunt, with my venomous tongue, isn't it up to you?" When the little shota saw this, he hurriedly hugged her thigh. His little face had an especially cute smile. "Auntie, don't be angry. I'll raise you from now on."

"That's more like it. Who is the most beautiful person in the world? "

"Aunt is the most beautiful!"

"Oh yeah, baby come over and kiss one!"

Seeing the two of them happily playing around, Li Jianzhong smiled and shook his head. Just as he was about to open his mouth to stop them, an old and forceful voice was heard — —

"You all, hurry up and come greet the elders."

Old Man Li's dignified face revealed a rare trace of a smile.

Although he was already eighty years old, he did not look like his peers. Instead, he was in high spirits and had an awe-inspiring presence. Of course, this was also related to his past experiences. A person who had spent their entire life in the police force would, more or less, possess an innate prestige, not to mention that he was a person who had done countless meritorious deeds.

"Yes, grandfather!"

The people who came this time were indeed a lot of important figures. They were all leaders, so it wasn't appropriate for Li Jianzhong to ignore them and greet them one by one.

It was already late in the night. After the banquet, the guests had finally left. In next to no time, only the Li family members remained at home.

"Just now your aunt told me that your cousin Yan'er is getting engaged. She is three years younger than you. "Sigh!" Li Zhaozheng's words were directed at Li Mengqi. It was hard to conceal the worry and disappointment in his words.

Li Mengqi's eyelids twitched. Something was not right. Could it be that they were going to force another marriage? She secretly tugged on Li Jianzhong's sleeve. Who knew that Big Bro would ignore her. Damn it, she's not going to save her!

She could only force herself to laugh. "Grandfather, Cousin Yan'er's engagement is a good thing. Shouldn't you be happy?"

"I say, what's going on with you? You're not young anymore, but you're not worried at all about your life? " When Li Zhao mentioned this matter, his expression turned ugly.

"Grandfather, fate is a foregone conclusion, rushing is useless. "Don't worry, I'll probably meet one when I go out tomorrow."

"Even at the age of 80, you still won't be able to marry someone like him." Li Zhao was puffing his beard and glaring at Li Jianzhong. He turned to Li Jianzhong and said, "And you, how did you become the big brother? After knowing so many capable elites, can't you find someone to be your brother-in-law? "

"Grandpa is right. When we get back, I'll arrange a blind date for her." Even if his grandfather didn't say anything, as an elder brother, he was still worried.

Although, with his sister's conditions, he wasn't worried about her finding a good partner, there were still countless bad people who thought about her. It was already difficult for him to deal with a money lender, but now there was one more, Qi Junhao. Especially since she seemed to be aligned with Jun Hao and didn't seem to have any intention of rejecting him. This was even more worrisome. He had to marry this girl off as soon as possible so that he could feel at ease!

"Big brother — —" Li Mengqi was about to faint. She never thought that her big brother would be in cahoots with her grandfather.

"If you don't find a boyfriend by the end of the year, you siblings can't come back for the new year!"

"Grandpa — —" Li Mengqi stomped her feet anxiously. But who knew that Grandpa Li would be so determined. With a wave of her sleeve, she entered the study room.

"Big Brother — —" Li Mengqi glanced at Li Jianzhong, but he patted her shoulder, "Be good and don't implicate me, your big brother, and get kicked out of the house too!"

Li Jianzhong said heartlessly as he carried his son, who had already fallen asleep on the sofa, and left.

Helpless, Li Mengqi could only return to her room.

Since last night, she hadn't rested a single moment. She was already exhausted, so she picked up her clothes and went to the bathroom. She put a bath full of hot water for herself, intending to have a good bath.

After removing all the restraints on her body, Li Mengqi stood in front of the mirror and carefully studied the bruises that had not been removed. Her mind could not help but recall the scene that had caused her to blush and her heart to palpitate.

He was clearly kissing her gently and calling her darling, but why did he suddenly seem like a completely different person?

In his mind, that cold and emotionless face of his appeared again.

"You're right about one thing. To a man, a woman is nothing more than a toy to be vented …"

"But you made me tired of you once."

Suddenly, her eyes started to itch as if something wanted to pour out her tears. Li Mengqi lifted her face and lightly blinked her long eyelashes, trying to not let the tears fall. Unfortunately, her nose turned sour, and her tears immediately began to flow uncontrollably.

He said he was tired of her, but why was she having fantasies?

Kennedy International Airport, New York.

People came and went as they arrived at the main hall. A man came leisurely with a bag in one hand. The custom-made black pants and the white robe were decorated in such a monotonous fashion, but it couldn't conceal the noble air he was born with. Instead, it made him look especially handsome and dashing. On the other hand, the man's handsome face was covered with a layer of mysterious halo of light. People couldn't help but look forward to the beautiful face beneath the sunglasses.

Beside him, there was a beautiful man with an equally outstanding appearance. The two of them were like beautiful scenery as they tightly held everyone's gaze.

"Boss, where should we go?" Zhang Chi asked respectfully.

"The Qi Residence!" Qi Junhao lightly threw out two words, his handsome face covered by a pair of oversized sunglasses, making it hard to see his expression.

At this moment, there was a ruckus in front of them. It turned out to be a telephone call. He answered, of course —

"Max!"

"Max, ILoveYou!"

Looking at Lu xun, who was surrounded by countless filaments and only revealed his pure and handsome appearance, Qi Junhao smirked coldly: "My sworn enemy, the road is narrow indeed."

He hadn't thought that he would bump into that man after not seeing him for six years.

International superstar?

Prince of the piano?

Hmph, only a blind woman would fall for such a pretty boy!

When he thought of this, his expression turned cold. He shot an unfriendly glance at Lu Zhichen, then strode out of the airport hall.

Lu Chenchen raised his head from the silkworm encirclement. When his warm eyes touched the back of Qi Junhao, a trace of dim light quietly flashed by …

At the Qi Residence.

"Grandfather, I know you love tea. This is the Da Hong Pao that I specially asked someone to bring from Wu Yi Mountain. I hope you will like it." Her sweet voice was like an oriole, resounding through the ancient soup's Qi family hall.

"Little girl, you're too kind. That stinking Yi Ting kid, if he marries you, he'll really be blessed." He had a very amiable and amiable expression on his aged face.

"Didn't Brother Ting say that he will be back today? I pushed Oskar's award ceremony and came here to wait for him. " Shen Xin Ran was rather generous as she sat on the rosewood sofa, skillfully boiling water to make tea, looking like a lady from a noble family.

"About there." Qi Shishi glanced at the antique clock on the wall, and a faint light flashed through his dark eyes.

"Grandfather, in a few days it will be the tenth anniversary of Brother Ting's company. I plan to go to A City to take a look. What do you think?" Her drama had just ended and he should be able to rest for the time being. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he could head to A City as well, so as to avoid having his elder brother be robbed by some fox spirit. Although he had always assured her that Qi Junhao did not have a woman by his side every time he had called his cousin, Shen Xingran was still worried.

"Mm, then you can go with him when the time comes." It had to be said that Qi Siqian was very fond of this future daughter-in-law of his. It was not only because Shen Xingran's father held an important position in Zeus, but also because this little girl had the ability to become the future mother of the Qi family.

"Grandpa, you are so nice!" When Shen Xingran saw Qi Siqian's unrestrained and humble attitude, she obviously supported herself. Her originally beautiful face now smiled even more lovingly, "Come, it's been a long time since I've made tea for grandpa. Please try out my skills."

Qi Siqian did not stand on ceremony. He picked up the exquisite crystal teacup and carefully savored it, "Hmm, the taste is mellow, not bad indeed!"

"Then next time, I'll bring more for grandpa!"

As soon as Qi Junhao stepped into the room, he saw an old man and a young man standing in the middle of the room.

Yesterday, Steward Lin had called him and told him that his grandfather had fainted for no reason, and the doctor had determined that he might have suffered a stroke, which had caused him to rush over in a hurry. Unexpectedly, this old man faked his illness again.

"Grandfather, aren't you sick? "Why do you still have the spirit to chat and laugh here?" Qi Junhao walked over, his hands in his pockets as he spoke coolly, "It looks like I'll have to see the hospital's medical notice for it to appear next time."

"Kid, is there anyone that can curse your grandfather like that?" Qi Siqian was so angry that he puffed his beard and glared at him.

"The legacy of disaster will last for a thousand years. Seeing that you've aged so well, I can finally rest assured. At the very least, you'll be able to live for another twenty years." Qi Junhao pursed his lips, a trace of a smile appearing in his eyes.

"Big Brother Ting, grandfather only pretended to be sick because he missed you." Shen Xin Ran couldn't help trying to smooth things over, "The old man is already old and his health isn't that good."

Qi Junhao glanced at her and raised his eyebrows, "What are you doing here?"

His tone was cold and filled with an unsurpassable sense of alienation. Shen Xin Ran's heart turned cold, but he pretended not to care as he smiled, "The new movie just happened to have killed Qing. It's time to come over to see grandpa. Elder brother Ting, in a few days, your company will celebrate the 10th anniversary of our company.

"Don't mess with me. "Grandfather, I'm very busy. I'll be leaving first." Qi Junhao left without looking back.

Shen Xin Ran didn't expect him to reject her so straightforwardly. He tried his best to suppress the unwillingness in his heart and clenched his fists. His slender nails dug into his flesh tightly. It was a little painful, but still not even a thousandth of the pain in her heart.

Li Mengqi returned from her grandpa's birthday party to her busy work.

Occasionally, when she was free, she would look at her phone in a daze. It had already been a few days, and Qi Junhao hadn't looked for her again. Perhaps, this would be the end of everything?

BGH still decided to let Su Xin Lei replace her and host the interstellar ceremony. Although she looked relieved on the surface, her heart felt like it was pressed down by a huge rock, heavy and uncomfortable.

"Yi jie, why did such a good job end up with you, Leader Su? No matter what, you should be the one to go. " The young man who did not know the reason felt indignant.

Li Mengqi was too lazy to explain so much to her. The more she talked, the more confused she became, so she simply stopped talking and just smiled at him.

"Sigh, just thinking about the possibility that my family's Prince Charming will dance with you on stage, I feel so stifled!" Luo Hua couldn't help but wring his hands. If that Thousand Faces Fox of Su Xin Lei lured Young Master Qi away, what would happen to her sister?

In her heart, only her sister Yi'jie could be compatible with the male god.

Li Mengqi's fingers subconsciously tightened, but a faint smile still remained on her face, "Don't worry about other people's matters."

"Aiya, you don't even know how overbearing streamer Su was just now in the teahouse. I think she wants to use Young Master Shen as a springboard to pick up my god. "If Young Master Qi had really taken a fancy to her at a ball …"

The more she spoke, the more depressed she became. Li Mengqi's pretty face stiffened, and her mood dropped to the bottom.

It was night. In a music bar on the riverside called "Dye the Night", the sound of music lingered.

Li Mengqi sat in the corner and ordered a cup of Long Island Ice Tea for herself. In the past, every time Fang Menglin had a broken heart, she would always say that the Long Island Ice Tea was the best way to cure a broken heart. She hadn't thought that today, she would become a demoness as well.

Li Mengqi smiled wryly. She, who had never experienced feelings before, at this moment, deeply felt that being hurt by love was a terrifying thing.

"Always seeing love as too perfect, that feeling of betting on something big. Only after losing the promise of his previous life did I discover that the water had quietly turned into tears …"

At this moment, a deep and emotional singing voice entered her ears. Her heartstrings were inexplicably touched. Li Mengqi slightly raised her eyes and unconsciously cast her gaze onto the big screen …

"Although I can't see or hear, I can't forget …"

"After this second, I'll laugh. Drink this bowl of antidote and forget all the good things …"

Perhaps in the MV, the relationship between the male and female protagonists was too moving, or perhaps the sad lyrics were too distracted. Li Mengqi lightly blinked her long eyelashes.

She drank the iced tea in her hand in one gulp, as if she wanted to forget everything. Unfortunately, the man's handsome face that could make a woman lose her beauty was becoming clearer and clearer, making it hard to forget.

In a bar, the fish and dragons were always mixed. A single woman could easily become the target of others, not to mention an outstanding beauty like her.
