Chapter 44: Clash

She hurried along the way, her footsteps somewhat frantic, as if rushing for time, followed by an assistant with an anxious expression, full of worry.

Song Qingwan saw that they were still there and breathed a sigh of relief. Seemingly unconsciously, she explained, "I just thought waiting outside was too boring, so I went out to get some air. How’s everything on your end, is it all done?"

Lu Junhan looked at Xu Ciye, his gaze questioning. He had just arrived.

With Pei Xiubai, this little master, here, and Li Li, this Little Tiger, constantly courting death, Xu Ciye’s heart was already fragile. Now with another big boss appearing, his heart was about to explode.

Moreover, Lu Junhan still didn’t know that his precious daughter kissed someone, and after one kiss, she damn well wanted a second. If he found out about this, Pei Xiubai might really not leave this psychology consultation room today!

So, before the little girl could speak of what just happened, Xu Ciye was eager to quickly send him away to avoid any accidents.

So without thinking, he hurriedly said, "It’s all done, it’s all done. I’ll send the report to the villa later. If you have any urgent matters to attend to, you can leave first."

"No way, Uncle, I haven’t kissed... mm mm mm..."

Xu Ciye covered the little girl’s mouth, his sinister yet beautiful face donned an amiable smile, "Sweetheart, I know you can’t bear to part with Uncle. It’s fine, it’s fine. Uncle will visit you often in the future..."

Lu Li: "..."

The next second, Xu Ciye couldn’t keep smiling. Two equally cold, frosty gazes were piercing straight at him, causing a chill to run up from his feet almost instantly.

Shit!

He forgot there were two people he couldn’t afford to provoke!

"Your hand!"

Lu Junhan spoke coldly, "Do you want me to chop it off now?"

Xu Ciye dejectedly let go of his hand. The little loli, seeing that he had released her, didn’t bother arguing about him covering her mouth. She had more important things to do. Thus, she jogged over to her dad, and in her soft, adorable voice said, "Daddy, can we not leave so soon? I haven’t kissed yet..."

"Hey! Li Li, why is your face bruised?" To change the subject, Xu Ciye forced a smile and pointed this out, awkwardly chuckling as he said each word with difficulty, "Could it be that Uncle was too forceful just now..."

With Pei Xiubai present, Lu Junhan wasn’t paying much attention to the little girl’s face just now. But after hearing Xu Ciye say that, he pinched the little girl’s face with his fingertips, his dark eyes scrutinizing her face. Sure enough, the white, delicate face bore stark bruises from gripping fingers.

Lu Junhan’s deep, dark eyes narrowed dangerously, his voice cold as ice, "Who did this?"

"Me!" Without waiting for Pei Xiubai to speak, Xu Ciye loudly confessed with guilt, "It must have been me who didn’t pay attention to my strength just now, so..."

"It wasn’t you."

Who was Lu Junhan, someone so easy to fool? He didn’t need to think long, turning his head, his gaze icily fixed on the always expressionless Pei Xiubai.

"I did it." The boy in the wheelchair met his gaze unwaveringly, without a hint of evasion.

Lu Junhan stared at him with dangerous eyes, a chilling curve pulling at his mouth.

Xu Ciye’s heart sank, he thought to himself, this is bad.

If these two were to clash...

Thankfully, just then, Song Qingwan’s phone rang. She answered the call, her expression slightly solemn. Not long after, she hung up, looked at Lu Junhan, and spoke softly, "The old man just called me. He wants you to bring Li Li to the old house later. He didn’t say exactly what he wants to do. What do you think..."
