C12 Not to the Last Step

Li Shao Han walked to the side door where Gu Zhi Qiu and Li Zhan Chen were and hesitantly raised his hand to knock on it. He raised his voice a little and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, come over from the kitchen and ask what you want for dinner. What do you want for dinner?"

In the room, Gu Zhi Qiu's entire body tensed up when she heard Li Shao Han's voice.

"Sha Shaohan is outside the door." Li Zhan Chen recounted the current situation, causing Gu Zhi Qiu to be so scared that her throat was in her throat.

Gu Zhi Qiu was so nervous that she subconsciously reached out her hand to push Li Zhan Chen away. Her slender fingertips pressed against Li Zhan Chen's chest, and Li Zhan Chen narrowed his eyes as he suddenly grabbed her hand and pressed it against her sides.

"Brother?" Realizing that no one responded to him, Li Shao Han frowned outside the door and called out to Li Zhan Chen in confusion.

Li Zhan Chen lowered his head to look at Gu Zhi Qiu, and said in a low and magnetic voice, "The door is not locked."

Of course, Gu Zhi Qiu knew that the door was not locked, which was why she was so afraid.

Gu Zhi Qiu's body trembled slightly as she struggled even harder. No matter how hard she tried, she could not break free from Li Zhan Chen's imprisonment. She did not give up and continued to struggle.

"Brother, I'm in." Seeing that there was still no response from inside, Li Shao Han reached out his hand and grabbed the doorknob.

Gu Zhiqiu's face turned pale and her eyes suddenly turned red as she looked pleadingly at Li Zhan Chen.

Don't, don't be like this. She didn't want to be seen by such an unbearable scene. She didn't want to be seen by outsiders.

Why? She was obviously injured. She couldn't make a sound because of his bad treatment. Her body was also injured. Yet she still had to face such an embarrassing thing. Did she deserve it because she liked him?

Li Zhan Chen looked at the tears in Gu Zhi Qiu's eyes and felt irritated for no reason. Just as the door was about to be opened, he raised his voice and said, "Don't come in. Just do as I say for dinner."

Li Shao Han held the door handle in his hand and was silent for a few seconds before he asked, "Brother, did something happen?"

Li Zhan Chen looked at Gu Zhi Qiu, then looked at the door: "Nothing. Your sister-in-law is changing her clothes. It's inconvenient. You can go downstairs first."

Gu Zhiqiu stared blankly at the side of Li Zhan Chen's face. Li Zhan Chen turned his head and met her gaze. He said coldly, "I don't have the perverted hobby of being watched by my brother. It's just that, if you try to threaten me again next time, you have to bear the consequences by yourself." Li Zhan Chen said as he reached out his hand to cover her eyes.

He was a bit annoyed in his heart. He clearly wanted to be more ruthless and make her embarrassed to the point where she couldn't stay in this family any longer and force her to get a divorce. Why couldn't he be ruthless until the last step? When he saw that her tears had wavered for a moment, he was not ruthless enough to her.

Perhaps it was because -

Before they got married, she was not his wife. Instead, she was the secretary of Li's disease who had once been like him and understood him.

Why couldn't she always be his capable assistant? Why couldn't she always be his friend? Why did she have to become a resentful woman that he hated?

Li Zhan Chen thought as his body moved even more fiercely.

Li Zhan Chen and Gu Zhi Qiu did not know that Li Shao Han, who was standing outside the door, did not leave. He stood in front of the door with a cold expression. He did not see or hear what was happening inside, but he had already guessed it.
