"What are you angry about? I didn't mean for your granny and the others to misunderstand!" An Xiaochu practically trotted to keep up with her footsteps.

It was obvious that this person was angry. An Xiaochu frowned, she did not understand where Qin Ziang's anger was coming from. The one who should be unhappy was hers, but was misunderstood for no reason.

"I don't want to get married." Qin Ziang walked quickly to the door of the sanatorium and stopped in his tracks. The words in his mouth were leisurely, and An Xiaochu instantly understood why Qin Ziang had never given him a chance to explain himself clearly.

That was her acting as a shield!

With a thump in her heart, it was as if she'd dropped a thousand pounds of heavy rock, causing her to feel uncomfortable.

"So? You want me to be your shield? " This question did not require an answer, An Xiaochu was already well aware of it.

"You've become smart." Qin Ziang did not directly answer An Xiaochu's question, but just from his attitude, An Xiaochu knew that her guess was right.

"Qin Ziang, can you be even more shameless? "You schemed for me to be your shield and never let me know the entire time. Now that you're so arrogant, I don't owe you anything!" With that said, An Xiaochu's face changed. She had forgotten that she, An Xiaochu, owed him in his knowledge just now due to being in such a rush.

"Would you believe me if I told you that I didn't plot against you?" Qin Ziang held An Xiaochu's shoulder, forcing her to look him in the eye. He didn't know how An Xiaochu's brain worked, in a short period of time, he could actually think of this much.

"Even now, you still want to lie to me!?" Qin Ziang, we have a contract between us, as long as you say it, I will help you. "So you don't have to put it in your face at all. Disgusting."

Undeniably, Qin Ziang's words worked, and successfully caused An Xiaochu to freeze. But when An Xiaochu regained her senses, a huge explosion followed.

As long as she thought about how she had been foolishly walking in Qin Ziang's trap recently, An Xiaochu would feel extremely uncomfortable. She always wanted to find a way to vent her feelings. Before, she had been moved, but now, she had to be angry.

"Let me say something?" Qin Ziang used all of his strength to maintain a position where he could look straight into his eyes.

"Before I decided to take you home, my mom and them never mentioned getting me married." Qin Ziang's clear and sharp eyes locked onto An Xiaochu's face tightly, not allowing her to cower in the slightest.

's expression changed as he stared at Qin Ziang, his eyes filled with curiosity.

"With our current relationship, if my mother suddenly mentions the matter of marriage, you definitely won't agree. But now that everyone has tacitly agreed to let us be together, I can only give a perfunctory reply. An Xiaochu, from the beginning to the end, I never had the thought of using you as a shield. Furthermore, with my identity, I want to find a shield. Isn't that a matter of hooking one's fingers, why would I fall for you, An Xiaochu! "

After he finished explaining, An Xiaochu's face was still filled with surprise and doubt. Seeing her like this, Qin Ziang knew that she needed time to digest it, so he did not force her.

Qin Ziang turned his body around, took out a cigarette from the carriage, and lit it up with a smooth and natural motion.

He also needed to calm down. Why was it that when he saw An Xiaochu's expression of loathing and disappointment, his heart felt so stifled? The explanation didn't need to be in his head before it was spat out. This is An Xiaochu, their relationship isn't …

A cigarette burnt out, and before Qin Ziang could smoke much, he extinguished the cigarette butt and threw it into the trash can by the side of the road. Qin Ziang opened the car door and indicated for An Xiaochu to get in.

An Xiaochu hesitated for a while and silently got on the carriage. During this time, her mind was in a mess. She accidentally bumped into the door frame, causing her to gnash her teeth in pain. Her expression changed.

"Where did you bump into?"

When Qin Ziang heard the sound of breathing in, his amber eyes narrowed. With a move of his hand, he went to check on An Xiaochu's injuries. A strong smell of cigarette smoke assaulted his nostrils, and An Xiaochu subconsciously dodged.

Seeing her actions, Qin Ziang thought that she was still thinking about what had happened a moment ago and wasn't willing to let him look at her.

He had already explained himself clearly to this woman, why would she still be so stubborn!

Qin Ziang coldly looked at Zhang Jun, he did not care about An Xiaochu's resistance, and directly grabbed her arm and dragged her over. Coincidentally, An Xiaochu had been pinched to the point of suffering from yesterday's injuries by Qin Zian, to the point that her cherry blossom lips were pained to the point of turning white.

"Are you hurt here?" With An Xiaochu's current state, what was there that he didn't understand? Qin Ziang loosened the strength in his hands and used both hands to roll up An Xiaochu's sleeves. This was clearly not the sign of a collision!

"What's going on?" Qin Ziang's aura was extremely cold, An Xiaochu felt that she could not even breathe.

"I was careless yesterday... "I bumped into it." No matter what, An Xiaochu could not say a thing. She had nearly been raped yesterday. An Xiaochu subconsciously retracted her arm, but Qin Ziang did not let her go. As the two of them pulled each other, her collar slanted a lot. Qin Ziang saw with her sharp eyes that there were also bruises on her shoulders.

The color in Qin Ziang's eyes gradually dimmed. He really wanted to pry open An Xiaochu's brain and see what she was thinking.

This woman was stupid. She could only show her fangs and brandish her claws in front of him. She was bullied to this extent by others and wouldn't even complain.

Hospital.

An Xiaochu didn't have any room to resist as she was thrown to the doctor for a series of tests.

"The patient has large bruises on his arms, shoulders, and back. Judging from the footage, he doesn't have any bone injuries, but his soft tissue is badly bruised and needs some rest." The doctor quickly told the gloomy Qin Ziang the results of the examination.

Qin Ziang's face became uglier and uglier, to the point that the doctor was shocked.

An Xiaochu hung her head, like a primary school student waiting to be trained.

Qin Ziang looked at An Xiao for a long time, then left without a word. An Xiao was at a loss as to whether she should follow him or not. Qin Zian's voice came from far away. It was a bit vague, but An Xiao heard it clearly at first.

"Stay put. I'll go get the medicine." Her tone was not good, An Xiaochu frowned, Qin Ziang's current appearance was very similar to when they just met, cold and terrifying.

Was it his injury that made him unhappy? This realization caused the knot between An Xiaochu's brows to instantly untie. A faint red cloud rose from his deathly pale face, which carried a hint of flirtatiousness within its weakened state.

Qin Ziang brought the medicine back, and without saying a word, he led An Xiaochu away. An Xiaochu followed behind him obediently, when he looked up, he saw the silhouette of the man's face, which made An Xiaochu smile, as if she was looking at a living ghost. Qin Ziang's actions looked crude, but he had actually used very little strength.

Qin Ziang sent An Xiaochu home, then took out the medicine from his medicine bag and smeared it on An Xiaochu's body. An Xiaochu blushed as she rejected him. Qin Ziang's sword-like eyebrows creased in displeasure. He glared at An Xiaochu, and automatically squeezed the medicine in his hands.

"I've never seen anything on you before!"

An Xiaochu subconsciously wanted to escape, so she moved even faster than her. She grabbed her body in one go and stripped most of her clothes off.

Damn it!

An Xiaochu lied down with her back facing him, and did not notice this moment where Qin Ziang had lost control of himself.

An Xiaochu blushed as she allowed Qin Ziang to apply the medicine on him. This was the first time An Xiaochu did not stay on her guard against Qin Ziang when the two of them were acting this way.

She didn't know where An Xiaochu got her confidence from, but she was sure that Qin Ziang wouldn't do anything so 'beast' to her under the current circumstances. The truth proved that Qin Ziang did not disappoint her, and obediently helped her to apply the medicine, and even carefully helped her to pull off her clothes. Then, he turned around and went to the bathroom to wash his hands.

After Qin Ziang left, An Xiaochu lied on her bed and tossed and turned. As the curtain of night quietly approached, her heart was filled with confusion, just like the dusty night sky outside.

"Rest well. Don't go to work for the next few days. Be good, I've been busy recently, don't let me worry. "

What Qin Ziang had said to An Xiaochu before he left troubled her for an afternoon.

The difference between her and Qin Ziang was completely different!

"Young Master, what are your orders?" Just as Qin Ziang came out of An Xiaochu's district, two domineering bodyguards dressed in suits and leather shoes appeared beside him.

Qin Zian got on the car without saying a word. The two bodyguards looked at each other, not understanding what was going on with this unpredictable young master.

"An Xiaochu is injured. I want to know the reason."

Qin Ziang leaned back in his chair, the fatigue on his face gradually disappearing. He had just returned from a business trip. After five consecutive days of intense work, even someone who had been beaten by iron would not be able to endure it.

"Yes, Young Master, I'll send someone to investigate immediately." The two bodyguards looked at each other in the front row of the driver's seat, looking a little sleepy. This An Xiaochu, didn't Young Master hate her?

"Also, send two people to follow her." An Xiaochu was always in trouble because no one was watching. He was worried.

The morning of the second day. After a night of rest, Qin Ziang's mental state had recovered quite a bit.

When the two bodyguards saw him coming down, they quickly explained in detail what they found last night.

"A small coffee shop owner …" You actually dare to touch one of his men, you must be tired of living!

As long as she thought of the cyan and purple color on An Xiaochu's body, the veins on her forehead would jump. An Xiaochu was so presumptuous in front of him, he couldn't even bear to touch a single finger of hers! Fortunately An Xiaochu was smart, or else the consequences would have been …

Just thinking about the possibility of An Xiaochu suffering from an accident would cause Qin Ziang to wish that he could immediately kill that reckless bastard. No wonder he told An Xiaochu to rest for a few days and not go to work. Her expression was so strange.

This silly woman, why didn't she tell him what had happened!

"Is he in the hospital?"

"Yes, his eyes are wounded."

"Eyes... If you have seen something that you shouldn't have, then you should be blind! " The bodyguard was startled, under Qin Ziang's sharp gaze, he reacted in an instant.

That coffee shop owner was unlucky enough to offend someone he shouldn't have.

It looks like he had to warn his brothers who were following Miss An. The identity of this Miss An must have changed!
