Her slender jade-like fingers were cool, and were grasped by Qing Sihuai’s large hand, warmth radiating from the back of her hand.
Lan Shu’s delicate eyebrows creased almost imperceptibly, then smoothed out in an instant. She turned her head to look out the window, not withdrawing her hand.
Qing Sihuai drove with his left hand, holding Lan Shu’s hand with his right. Seeing that she didn’t resist, the smile on his lips deepened.
Heh, there wasn’t a woman in this world he couldn’t get.
What about Shu Yao?
What about Lan Shu?
Weren’t they all in his pocket, destined to be his playthings in the future?
“I’m a bit cold, can you turn on the air conditioning?” Lan Shu asked halfway through the journey.
“Of course, no problem.”
Qing Sihuai readily agreed and turned on the air conditioning. To show off, he even turned the temperature up very high.
Ten minutes later, at a traffic light, Qing Sihuai, sweating profusely from the heat, took off his trench coat.
Half an hour later, the car arrived at Lan Shu’s apartment, Tangchen Apartments.
The car stopped outside Tangchen Apartments. Shu Yao withdrew her hand and said softly, “I’m home, thank you.”
“I said, there’s no need to be so polite between us.”
After speaking, Qing Sihuai immediately opened his door and got out of the car, running to the passenger side to open the door, extending his hand gentlemanly.
Lan Shu looked at his pretense of being a gentleman and, for some reason, felt extremely resistant. But on second thought, she still raised her hand and placed it in his, lowering her head as she got out of the car.
“Yao Yao, I’ll wait for you to regain your memories, and then you can move back and live with me,” Qing Sihuai said soulfully.
Lan Shu stood before him, her red lips pursed, then pursed again and smiled, “I hope so.”
“Yes. It’s quite cold, and it’s getting late. I’ll walk you in.”
Qing Sihuai ‘considerately’ accompanied Lan Shu into the apartment complex, frequently tilting his head to look around as they walked side-by-side.
Lan Shu took in his every move but remained silent.
Suddenly, a sharp female voice pierced the quiet night, “So, Qing Sihuai, you scoundrel, you actually found another woman!”
The woman’s voice drew their attention, and they both looked over.
A tall woman, wearing black sneakers, a black short jacket, and black trousers, ran towards them.
The woman had a short ponytail, a pretty face, and an aggressive demeanor. “You little slut, Qing Sihuai is my fiancé! How dare you seduce him?”
Seeing the woman approaching, Qing Sihuai’s expression immediately darkened. “Qingyue, what are you going crazy about?”
The woman called Qingyue was flushed with anger. Holding her bag in one hand, she pointed at Lan Shu with the other. “You’ve been cold and distant towards me these past few days, all for this slut. A face with Korean semi-permanent makeup, how could you be blinded by a fox spirit!”
“Who is she?” Lan Shu asked, confused.
Qing Sihuai’s face was unsightly. “I forgot to tell you. She’s the daughter of the boss of my partner company. She’s always liked me, and her father intended to matchmake us, but I never agreed.”
“You slut, it’s all because of you! If it weren’t for you, my Sihuai would definitely be with me.” Qingyue roared in anger, pointing at Qing Sihuai and demanding, “I’ll ask you one last time, are you willing to agree to me or not?”
“Qingyue, the person I love, from beginning to end, has always been Yao Yao,” Qing Sihuai said, his face grim, patiently explaining.
Hearing his words, Qingyue’s eyes widened in fury, her whole body trembling. “Scoundrel, you two adulterers and whores, ah!” She screamed like a madwoman, pulled open her bag with her right hand, took out a bottle, and began to pour it towards them.
“Die, you two just die!” Qingyue shouted, gripping the bottle and wildly splashing the liquid within.
“Ah!”
The liquid accidentally splashed onto the back of Lan Shu’s hand, and she cried out in pain.
“Yao Yao, be careful!”
Seeing this, Qing Sihuai lunged towards Lan Shu, pulling her into his embrace.
At that moment, Qingyue, holding the sulfuric acid and continuously splashing it, changed direction, avoiding Qing Sihuai and Lan Shu.
Lan Shu’s eyes narrowed slightly, a glint flashing in their depths. She suddenly lunged towards Qing Sihuai, forcefully pushing him back a few steps.
