Letting out a low laugh, Lu Zhanxiu asked, “Did you not make enough noise last night?”

 At those telling words, the crowd of onlookers stood shocked, their mouths agape.

 “Oh, my goodness, he’s so cute. Alluringly perfect, like an angel from heaven!”

 “Who is this? For him, I will give up Lu Zhanxiu!”

 Little did they know that this demi-god standing before them was indeed Lu Zhanxiu.

 He had always kept a low profile and had never been featured in any media. Although everyone was aware that he was exceptionally good-looking, charming, and mysterious, not many had ever seen him in person.

 Feeling as though her brain had stalled, Yan Susu hauled her rigid body up. “Young Mr. Lu, I didn’t mean to…”

 Young Mr. Lu?

 The legendary king of decisiveness, that mysterious business magnate with whom every woman in the world wanted to jump into bed—that Young Mr. Lu?!

 Everyone was stunned!

 Raising his eyebrows, Lu Zhanxiu said, “You didn’t mean to take my clothes?”

 “Huh?” It was now Yan Susu’s turn to be shocked.

 Did that mean that she had spent the night with Young Mr. Lu?

 “If you like those clothes, you should just tell me. I will have them tailored for you,” Lu Zhanxiu murmured teasingly.

 He’d had a great time the night before, and now, having witnessed this spectacular drama, he felt generous and wanted to spread some cheer.

 Furthermore, this little woman, dressed in his clothes, was quite gutsy, strong-willed, and feisty. She exuded a beauty that made him pause involuntarily in admiration.

 In the short span of two days, they had met four times.

 Not only did he not feel repulsed by this woman’s touch, but he had actually enjoyed it very much.

 Perhaps, they could form a permanent, steady alliance.

 That thought made Lu Zhanxiu happy.

 Yan Susu was getting even more flustered. “No…”

 “If you’re wearing my clothes because you like my scent, you will have plenty of opportunity to smell me.”

 Yan Susu had no words.

 Now, what exactly was going on here?

 “Earlier on, weren’t you complaining that you were hungry? Let’s go.”

 Like an idiot, Yan Susu allowed Lu Zhanxiu to walk her away from the crowd. She had absolutely no clue what was going on.

 “You can’t leave!” Recovering from his state of shock, Ling Xiusi grabbed Yan Susu’s wrist and kept her from walking away.

 This was his property, and no one was allowed to take it away!

 Lu Zhanxiu turned and gazed coldly at Ling Xiusi. “Let go!”

 “This is my property. You should be the one to let go!”

 Lips curled, Lu Zhanxiu remarked, “What I hate most is disobedient dogs. Get him off of her!”

 At his command, the hotel security immediately stepped forward to grab hold of Ling Xiusi. There was a cracking sound, and then Ling Xiusi’s arm was hanging unnaturally, releasing Yan Susu from his grip.

 Without even working out whose territory he was in, this guy had the audacity to offend Young Mr. Lu!

 “Ah—” Ling Xiusi yelled in pain.

 “This is just a warning. If you ever dare to touch my woman again, I will have your arm destroyed!” Lu Zhanxiu said calmly before walking off with Yan Susu.

 “Xiusi!” Yan Tingting rushed forward to hold Ling Xiusi, asking anxiously, “Are you okay? Let me take you to the hospital.”

 “Yan Susu, I will get you for this!”

 “Xiusi, hush now. Let’s get to the hospital first. Your arm is more important.” She did not want a disabled husband.

 …

 The hospital.

 “The arm has been reset. Although it hurt when it was dislodged, there is no permanent damage. Once reset, the pain will go away. That was a remarkable technique…”

 1Noticing Ling Xiusi’s ferocious glare, the doctor stopped talking immediately.

 “Xiusi, how is it? Does it still hurt?” Yan Tingting asked with concern. She felt much more reassured knowing that no permanent damage had been done.

 “It’s nothing.” Ling Xiusi was furious. Yan Susu was his property. No one could steal her!

 Yan Tingting held him in her arms. “I was so scared. What would I do if something were to happen to you? Xiusi, I really do love you very much. But I have been holding back every day so as not to create any more trouble for you.”

 “Although it was my sister who begged me to take her place as the bride six years ago, I was actually very willing to do so because I love you very much. Will you accept me, please? I will never betray you the way my sister did. I will give you my everything…”

 Looking at her face, which bore some resemblance to Yan Susu’s, and seeing that look in her eyes, which reminded him of Yan Susu from six years ago, Ling Xiusi suddenly felt muddled.

 Sensing a breakthrough in Ling Xiusi’s attitude, Yan Tingting stood on tiptoe and took the initiative.

 ————

 Meanwhile, on the other side of town, there was complete silence in the car.

 Lu Zhanxiu glanced over at a tense Yan Susu, her hands clasped tightly, and asked with an icy laugh, “Feeling sorry for him?”
