“Let’s pretend that I never said that…”
Sensing the increasingly chilling aura around Long Sijue, Tang Zui quickly shut up. He looked at Si Mancheng. Si Mancheng, too, looked at him. But neither of them knew how to comfort Long Sijue.
The atmosphere in the study room became more and more stressful and daunting. The two men sitting opposite Long Sijue felt as though they could barely catch a breath. Tang Zui could not stand the stress any longer. He excused himself and went out for a smoke to soothe his nerves.
Si Mancheng’s cell phone started ringing. There was an emergency at the company that required his attention. He informed Tang Zui about it before fleeing the study room.
Tang Zui was so furious that he wanted to drag Si Mancheng back into the room and beat him up. How could he run away at a time like this?
In Long Sijue’s study room, Ye Gu had brought Zi Fan in as ordered. She was very nervous. Once she entered the room, she pretended to be calm and greeted him, “Young master.”
“I recall that you have checked Su Qianxun’s pulse multiple times.” Long Sijue fixed his eyes on her and paid close attention to every slight expression on her face.
“I… young master, I really didn’t find out that Miss Su was pregnant. When I checked her pulse, it didn’t indicate…”
There was a loud slap. Long Sijue smacked Zi Fan across the face. Zi Fan fell onto the floor. Her cheek had become swollen and blood spurted out from her mouth. Her left ear was impaired in an instant.
“Young master, please show me mercy this time!” Zi Fan did not even bother to check on her own injuries. She immediately kneeled down on the floor and begged him..”Access ReadReadNovelFull.live if you like watching manga,comics.
“If you make another mistake, you can pack up and get out of here!” Long Sijue’s voice was extremely cold and steely.
“Yes, understood,” Zi Fan quickly promised.
“Get lost!”
Fl.u.s.tered, Zi Fan scrambled to her feet and left the study hurriedly. In that very moment, she felt as though she had just crawled out from deadly quicksand.
Just as she expected, Long Sijue was no fool. Zi Fan knew that her little schemes would not escape Long Sijue’s eagle eyes.
However, she did not expect that Long Sijue would be so harsh towards her. He was cold-blooded to a chilling, outrageous extent.
She started treating and controlling the venom inside his body since she was eighteen. She had worked for him for eight years, and he took her along wherever he went. Long Sijue had treated her fairly well, so she always a.s.sumed that he might have developed feelings for her too…
…..
In the servants’ quarters, Su Qianxun borrowed a bottle of glue from the butler. She was fixing the broken gla.s.s cup diligently. After an hour of effort, she eventually fixed the cup and made it good as new. A smile appeared on her pale small face.
However, when she recalled Long Sijue’s att.i.tude towards her, she stopped smiling.
Su Qianxun did not like the fact that there was a power imbalance between her and Long Sijue. She felt like his pet. She was disposable to him.
She must find a way to change that!
Su Qianxun placed the repaired cup onto the desk with caution so that the glue would dry. She gazed at the glaring cracks on the beautiful cup. Her heart was in so much pain that she felt as though she could barely breathe.
…..
Long Sijue chased everyone out and started smoking alone in the study room. The ashtray in front of him was already full. He suddenly stood up and left the room.
Su Qianxun lay in her small bed, tossing and turning. She was not able to sleep. Due to the curettage procedure she had gone through, her lower abdomen was throbbing with pain. She had not been able to sleep properly for the past few days.
Someone pushed open the bedroom door and startled her. When she saw the man who just walked in, she let out a sigh in relief. But once she met Long Sijue’s chilling gaze, she felt a pang of tightness in her chest.
