"Sit."

Ye Zichen pulled open the space beside him, causing his tightly knitted eyebrows to loosen up a little.

"No need, I'll just sit over there." Fu Xiaoqian was about to move towards the sofa against the far wall.

The sinister gaze suddenly turned a bit chilly as it quietly glared at her. She was instantly silent and sat down obediently. Her back was stiff and her fists were clenched tightly. The fingers on her legs were laced together from time to time, as if she was doing some kind of mental self-improvement.

Liao Zhenbo pulled over a chair and sat down again next to Fu Xiaoqian.

Complete masking ignored three pairs of inquisitive eyes thrown at him. He was in a good mood to rebrand the card.

How strange!

Very strange!

Their interest was piqued in their eyes.

Who was Liao Zhenbo? He was a god-like person in City G and would never let anything or anyone affect his willpower or decision. However, this innocent and immature little girl in front of him had firmly grasped his emotions.

Who in the world was she?

Doubt, speculation in the silence in the sprout wantonly.

Jiang Shangyuan was the first to break the silence, "Hello, sister-in-law. My name is Jiang Shangyuan."

His long arm moved across Liao Zhenbo and extended to Fu Xiaoqian, who was sitting by the side with her head lowered, trying very hard to reduce the feeling of her presence.

Unexpectedly, he was separated by Liao Zhenbo who seemed to be fumbling for his cards. The three of them looked at each other. Wasn't this boss too possessive? He just wouldn't let them shake hands.

"Erm, please call me Fu Xiaoqian." As the three of them looked at each other, Fu Xiaoqian whispered softly.

These words were like a clap of thunder, exploding in the middle of the four people. The three of them focused their gazes on a single person with great interest.

He thought to himself, "Not all women would be willing to be like a leech and be sucked into the boss's body, never to leave again." However, this woman wanted to completely discard the identity that her boss had bestowed upon her, as she was deeply afraid that she would be infected by it in the slightest.

Different!

He felt sympathy for his boss from the bottom of his heart.

Sister-in-law? Liao Zhenbo had never thought that it would be so pleasing to the ears when people called her 'sister-in-law'. In fact, it even had a hint of genuine fondness to it. Update First Time

But this damned woman, he clenched the hand holding the card, the hard edges digging into his palm, piercing his skin. The distinct joints were suffused with a ghastly white hue, and an impressively vicious aura appeared. With just a glance, the three brothers obediently stood up and walked out, taking advantage of the moment to close the door.

Only then did he turn his body, his bleeding hand clasped around her jaw, raising her face so that her gaze could not avoid meeting his gaze. "What do you mean?"

"They are your brothers."

The pain she felt coming from her lower jaw made her feel as if all her bones had been crushed. Feeling wronged, tears welled up in her eyes.

"So?"

He forced himself to ignore the tears that brought her warmth.

"I don't think there's a need to lie to them, because we're just acting and not real."

"Then who do you think is the real person?" Every word seemed to pop out from between her teeth as her long and narrow eyes squinted dangerously. Light shot out from them like a sharp scimitar. As time passed, she was slowly slowed down.

"I …" What right do I have to tell you that when my parents return, they will be like two intersecting straight lines, moving further and further away from each other and never intersecting again?

"Do you think that after yesterday, there will be another man willing to approach you and marry you? "No more fantasies."

"Wh …" "What do you mean?"

Without any explanation or hesitation, he grabbed her by the arm and dragged her out of the club and stuffed her into his seat.

In the narrow space, the temperature suddenly dropped. The hand that held the steering wheel had white joints and blue veins pulsing on it. The clenched teeth made the side of his face look even colder and more frightening.

Fu Xiaoqian, who was still trying his best to digest what he had just said, was inexplicably ill-treated by him once again. Once again, he couldn't suppress the feeling of being wronged.

Tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, flowing down his flushed cheeks and along the bridge of his nose, flowing into his mouth like pearls with their strings cut.

A bitter taste spread from the tip of his tongue and filled his mouth.

She still couldn't understand why she was being so bullied. Wasn't it to correct her brother's slip of the tongue? If he didn't think it was necessary, all he had to do was tell her.

He raised his arm and wiped it across his face. It was bright red on his snow-white arm, like the blossoming of a flower. It was captivating, as if it was the brightest color in the world. His pitch-black eyes widened as he tried to find the wounds on his body, but to no avail.

The corner of his eye slightly moved to his hand that was gripping the steering wheel. A dark red liquid was seeping through his tightly clenched fingers, dripping onto his black suit pants, disappearing without a trace in an instant.

"You, you're injured."

Her entire body stiffened. The discontent that she had been suppressing was now drawn away by his injury. Fear and concern filled her teary eyes.

Liao Zhenbo acted as if he did not hear it, and with a stomp of his feet, the black Maybach charged into the endless night like a mad lion, roaring.

"Stop the car. If you don't stop soon, you'll lose too much blood. "Update at the first moment!" Fu Xiaoqian's body leaned forward uncontrollably, almost crashing into the control panel in front of him. She reached out for his arm.

"Creak —

The sharp sound of brakes pierced through the night and pierced the eardrums.

"Don't you know it's dangerous?"

He did not dare to imagine how he would be able to protect her in such a dangerous situation.

It was the first time she felt so defeated at the thought of her own helplessness, and it made her face turn even uglier.

Two clusters of blood-thirsty flames were pulsing in her scarlet eyes. They were faintly discernable, as if they were about to erupt at the very next moment and swallow her whole body, burning her into ashes.

"I just want your wounds to be treated immediately, that's why …" He would only reach out to pull you if he was in a hurry. Was there a need to be so fierce? If it weren't for the fact that you helped me, you would have bled to death.

Glancing at her small face that was full of concern, Liao Zhenbo handed her his injured hand. His tone also became softer.

"Do you care?"

The deep voice seemed to carry a unique magic, bringing with it his scorching aura. It sprayed all over her face and entered her ears, like an invisible hand pulling on the taut string at the bottom of her heart.

Trying to keep her face calm, she pulled out the tissue next to her, took the water, twisted the cap off the bottle, and carefully treated the wound.

The gap that was clearly within reach was like an insurmountable chasm.

Stupid, how could she care?

Just like five years ago, that soft consolation only represented consolation.

Only he had taken everything for real. He was so obsessed with it.

"Alright."

After doing something simple, she lifted her eyes slightly and looked at him, causing her to stop breathing.

His deep eyes were like a whirlpool that contained an endless attraction. It sucked her in and pulled her towards the bottomless abyss. She suddenly turned her head and looked out of the window.

Bitterness rippled around the corner of his mouth as he started the car.
