eath Dare you come wandering here" it was Gu Jianxi's voice.“Hee hee…” One of the thugs, Xie Xie, replied with a sinister grin: “Gu Jianxi, don’t be so arrogant. This place isn’t yours, why can’t we...Lin Meng turned around and walked to the girl's face, laughing mockingly.

"You have hands and feet, why do you insist on being disabled and making people pour tea for you! Also, who do you think you are Why should I pour tea for you!"

"You—" The woman was angry, she stood up abruptly and glared at Lin Meng. She was a head taller than Lin Meng, so standing up like that, her aura was somewhat intimidating. Sure enough, she looked very much like Xiao Yi's sister, these two siblings, some aspects were quite similar!

"You're looking for a death wish!" the woman snarled, clenching her fists. "This is my brother's place, and it's my place too! One word from me, and they'll kick you out!"

"Oh, then give it a try!"

The woman's face twisted slightly. She never expected that this girl, who was much younger than her, wouldn't be afraid of her at all. If she had said those words to any of her brother's previous girlfriends, they would have rushed to please her immediately. But this woman was so clueless!

She shook her head and sneered, "I'm not chasing you away now just to save face for my brother. You wait, see how my brother teaches you a lesson when he gets back! Don't think that because you look somewhat pretty, you can do whatever you want. I tell you, my brother has plenty of women who are prettier than you. You're nothing!"

"Heh heh, I probably don't amount to much, but in this place, it seems I still have a voice. You might try it, see if you can speak a word that would get me kicked out!"

Lin Meng provoked her with words!

The woman was starting to get flustered, feeling as if Lin Meng had slapped her across the face without even touching her.

She bit her lip hard, bitterly thinking to herself, if it were another woman, she would have chased her away without a second word, and her brother probably wouldn't have said anything either. But this woman was different. She clearly felt her brother's importance towards her. He was so secretive, not telling anyone, that if she hadn't gotten the news from a certain source, she wouldn't even know her brother had hidden a treasure! But, would she just sit there and do nothing, letting this woman named Lin Meng sit on top of her

No, that won't do!

That's embarrassing!

She came here to challenge Lin Meng, how could she let Lin Meng overshadow her!

She thought about it for a moment, and was also a little afraid that her brother, when he got angry, would be terrifying. She could only helplessly sit down again, but she still added spitefully, “Hmph, just wait until my brother kicks you. Then see how I'll deal with you!”

To say it, she didn't take any substantial action!

Lin Meng wasn't stupid either, she immediately understood that this girl in front of her was probably the kind who was all bark and no bite, just talk and no action, only making empty threats. She couldn't help but feel disappointed.

Forget it!

She sighed. She'd been thinking with her heart, not her head, and luck wasn't on her side!

"Have a seat, I'll be leaving now!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

The woman was still thinking about how to turn the tables, there's no way she could let Lin Meng leave! She immediately shouted.

"You are not allowed to leave! Who let you go!"

Lin Meng pretended not to hear, and walked away on her own.

"Hey, I told you to come back, did you hear me!" The woman held herself back, pressing her butt into the sofa and refusing to budge, hoping that her stern voice would scare Lin Meng back. But Lin Meng had already encountered people far more intimidating than her. How could she be brought back with just a few words She chuckled softly, shook her head, and for a moment, found this woman who was older than her, rather childish. Continuing, she took a step forward.

The woman behind glared at Lin Meng with burning fury, her intense gaze threatening to scorch two holes in her back. This quick-tempered nature of hers was a stark contrast to Xiao Yi's, and it was abundantly clear that she paled in comparison to him in terms of intelligence as well.

Seeing that Lin Meng had already stepped onto the stairs, the woman panicked. She was truly at her wit's end. She felt disrespected, and this was unforgivable. Her brother was Xiao Yi, the leader of the Silver Wolf Gang! This place belonged to her brother! How dare this woman, who was being supported by her brother, be so arrogant and disregard her! If she let Lin Meng leave just like that, the news would spread, and she'd surely be laughed at.

Thinking of this, the woman suddenly stood up, like a little leopard, she rushed towards Lin Meng, climbing the stairs, three steps turned into two, and suddenly reached out, grabbing Lin Meng like a wolf.

"Hey, hello there! Are you deaf"

Lin Meng was also climbing the stairs, when the foot he had lifted hadn't even touched the ground, he was suddenly pulled by this woman, his center of gravity shifted abruptly, and his body followed suit, falling backward.

The woman's first reaction was surprise. At this moment, with her still agile movements, she could have easily pushed Lin Meng back and steadied her. But as soon as her hand instinctively reached out, it felt like she had been burned, immediately retracting and even subtly shifting her body aside. Thus, she watched helplessly as Lin Meng rubbed against her body and fell down, rolling down the stairs.

The woman pretended to be surprised, reaching out in mid-air. In reality, she was smiling coldly inside. Let you feel proud, isn't this a lesson for you! Hehe, this young lady is not so easily offended!

Lin Meng tumbled head over heels several times. Her instinct for survival made her cry out, immediately alerting the servants and guards in the room. When she landed on the floor, Lin Meng let out a heavy groan.

She fell down a flight of stairs that wasn't very high, only ten or so steps. The fall itself wasn't too serious, but her hand was the real victim! During several collisions with the stairs, the plaster cast had shifted, causing her intense pain that made her sweat. As soon as she landed, she could only clutch her arm and grit her teeth to bear it.

As several sets of footsteps echoed, a frigid male voice followed closely behind.

"What's going on!" it was Xiao Yi who came back.

Seeing his subordinates and servants hurrying about, sensing danger, he too ran quickly, like a whirlwind, to Lin Meng's side. He squatted down urgently, his face betraying his anxiety as he gently helped her up.

"What's wrong with you!"

Lin Meng protected her right hand, biting her lip and shaking her head slowly. Sweat was visible, drilling out of her skin and slightly dampening her hair, making the dark strands cling tightly to her cheek.

Xiao Yi's pupils shrank, her heart ached with annoyance, she couldn't even speak. She dared to shake her head Look at the sweat, it was almost soaking her face.

His heart was filled with both heartache for her and burning anger.

Looking up, he glared at the woman still standing on the top of the stairs. "Qi Qi," he roared, "what have you done again!"

The woman shrunk her shoulders in fright, nervously darting her eyes around and avoiding Xiao Yi's gaze. She replied in a weak voice, "N-nothing... I didn't do anything!"

This tune, just hearing it, you know they're guilty!

Xiao Yi's heart was filled with anger. He received a report from his subordinates earlier, saying that his sister had arrived, and he knew something was going to happen, so he rushed over. But in the end, he was a step too late. This girl, in the past, could be overlooked, but this time, she went too far!

"Come down here!" he snorted, his icy eyes glaring at her.

Xiao Qiqi was afraid of her own brother. Although she didn't want to, she reluctantly walked step by step and came before Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi looked up, his voice cold. "Was it you who did this!"

Xiao Qiqi tightly closed her mouth, her eyes once again avoiding Xiao Yi's gaze.

Xiao Yi gently put Lin Meng down and stood up. He raised his hand and slapped Xiao Qiqi's face with a resounding slap, "Pa!" The sound echoed through the room, causing everyone to shudder in shock.

Xiao Qiqi covered her face in disbelief, her lips parted slightly but no words came out as tears streamed down her cheeks.

"Brother, you hit me!" She looked at Xiao Yi with disappointment and anger, one hand pointing menacingly at Lin Meng, her voice a low growl. "You hit me for this kind of woman! Brother, I'm your sister, your only sister, not some wild woman from outside!"

"Shut up!" Xiao Yi frowned, warning in a harsh voice.

Xiao Qiqi, upon hearing this, cried even harder and let out a wail.

"Brother, you never hit me before, but now you...sniffle... You forgot about your sister for a woman, you jerk! I hate you!"

Tears wet her eyeshadow and her white powder, so black liquid ran down her white face. She wiped it off with her hand absentmindedly, leaving behind a stark contrast of black and white, like an accidentally messed-up palette. It looked messy, and somewhat terrifying.

Xiao Yi didn't say much, he just lowered his head and held Lin Meng in his arms again. In a low voice, he whispered in her ear, "Did you sprain your hand I'll take you to the hospital!"

Saying that, he picked her up and walked out. Lin Meng's face was pale with pain, she had no strength to speak on one hand, and on the other hand, there was no room for her to speak at this time.

Xiao Qiqi stared wide-eyed as her older brother slapped her, then turned and ignored her. She cried even louder, her wails echoing through the room. She was a complete mess, like a child, but her anger towards Lin Meng grew stronger. She shouted directly at him.

"Lin Meng, don't get cocky. You'll never marry my brother, and I will never accept you as my sister-in-law. Only Xia Jie is worthy of my brother..."

"Alright!" Xiao Yi roared. "Qiqiq, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll send you back!"

Thus, Xiao Qiqi's scolding voice subsided somewhat.

As Xiao Yi carried Lin Meng into the car, he finally spoke up to explain. "It's just childish talk, don't take it to heart!"

His eyebrows and eyes held a sinister look, directed at his sister!

Lin Meng saw it, and her heart ached slightly.

That slap landed on the face of the woman named Qiqi, but it also struck her heart. Wasn't she his sister His only sister How could he possibly bear to do this to her! She had only hurt her hand, was it really worth this reaction from him! Was this man truly so concerned about her!

He... was too good to her, and she felt guilty!

If she hadn't intentionally provoked that woman, things probably wouldn't have turned out this way. In the end, she is also partly responsible. She caused that woman to be beaten by Xiao Yi. Seeing that woman cry so sadly and saying this was the first time Xiao Yi had hit her, she understood, and felt even more guilty in her heart!

"Does it hurt!" He asked softly, his brows furrowed with concern. The coldness and ferocity from the moment before seemed to vanish when he looked at her, replaced by his usual warmth and tenderness!

Oh!

She let out a soft sigh in her heart, her black eyes glanced at this man, and closed them as if they were unbearable, pressing her lips tightly together.

He pulled her closer to his chest, holding her tight and gently stroking her back. He whispered softly, "Be good, it's okay. We'll be at the hospital soon, and they'll just put a new cast on you… Be brave, don't be afraid of the pain. Just bear with it, I'm here with you…"

What he was saying seemed out of character. Lin Meng felt a pang in her heart when she heard it! She thought to herself, Xiao Yi, I'm sorry, I owe you an apology!

She went to the hospital and got her cast reapplied, then had a shot of anti-inflammatory medication! Her hand wasn't actually that painful anymore, but he still frowned and remained silent, his face cold as if someone owed him money. As soon as she looked at him, he always seemed to think she wanted to say something, so he would always appease her first, telling her to endure it. He acted as if only he knew better than her that she was in pain.

He looks so pitiful like this!

On the way back, he was even more careful, personally dragging her hand. She couldn't help but laugh. "Xiao Yi, I'm not that fragile!"

He listened, saying nothing in response, but he still held her hand tightly. She felt embarrassed, and there was a driver in the front seat, too! He didn't seem to care about ruining his big brother image at all.

She nudged him with her hand, but he seemed not to notice at all. In the end, she could only go with him. After all, this man had always been accustomed to doing things his way and preferred to let his actions speak for themselves.

When they went back, Xiao Qiqi was still there, curled up on the sofa. Seeing Lin Meng and the other enter, she only glanced at them with her eyes, then snorted and turned her head away. At this time, all the makeup on her face had been wiped off, probably after washing her face. It revealed a clean face, which was surprisingly innocent like a doll's face. She looked a lot younger all of a sudden, seeming to be only three or four years older than Lin Meng!

This makeup and no makeup, it seems like a difference of eight or nine years at once. It completely stunned Lin Meng. If Xiao Qiqi hadn't been wearing the same clothes, she would have thought another new person had arrived!

Xiao Yi's gaze only swept over Xiao Qiqi for a moment, then frowned after, and returned to Lin Meng.

"Xiao Yi!" Lin Meng smiled and tugged at Xiao Yi's arm.

Xiao Yi raised an eyebrow, silently asking.

"Give your sister some medicine!" She raised her hand, pointing to her own face, indicating the slap he'd given Xiao Qiqi.

Xiao Yi's eyes flashed, while Xiao Qiqi on the other side snorted angrily. "Don't pretend to be kind!"

Xiao Yi followed closely, his face turned cold as he rebuked. "Don't pay attention to her!"

Lin Meng shook her head, smiled faintly, and walked towards Xiao Qiqi instead. Then, at a distance behind her, she sat down on the sofa. Xiao Yi naturally followed suit and sat down as well.

Lin Meng called for Huazhi, asking her to bring some anti-inflammatory and swelling ointment. She then personally handed it to Xiao Yi, reaching out to gently push him. Xiao Yi pursed his lips, unable to resist Lin Meng's tender smile. Taking the ointment, he put on a cold face and sat down next to Xiao Qiqi, squeezing the ointment and applying it to Xiao Qiqi's face.

Although Xiao Qichi hummed several times, expressing her disdain, when her brother applied medicine to her, she didn't refuse. Instead, she cooperated by puffing out her cheeks. Lin Meng watched and secretly smirked on the side, but Xiao Qichi caught her and glared at her fiercely. It seemed that she had no hope of gaining any goodwill from Xiao Qichi!

However, Lin Meng didn't expect that either!

Force her to flatter people, curry favor, and suck up to others. This isn't what she wants or is willing to do, but she's simply too lazy to do otherwise.

Looking at the loving interaction between the siblings, she explained softly, "Xiao Yi, although your sister pulled me up when I fell before, I think she probably just wanted to talk to me and didn't mean to. It was also my fault for not standing properly at the time, so I fell. Therefore, don't blame your sister, and please don't let this incident affect the harmony between you siblings!"

Before Xiao Yi could even speak, Xiao Qiqi immediately huffed indignantly. "Backseat driver, crocodile tears -- fake compassion!"

Lin Meng didn't argue. She watched as Xiao Yi finished what he was doing before she stood up, indicating she was going back to her room to rest. She had said what she needed to say and done what she could. Now, it was time for the siblings to talk. There were probably some things they needed to discuss, and as an outsider, she shouldn't be there.

As for what these two would talk about, it wasn't something Lin Meng could concern herself with! Nor did she really care if Xiao Yi would chase her away because of this!

"Humans are not trees or grasses, who can be without feelings!"

She also didn't want to do anything that would specifically provoke Xiao Yi, making him drive her away!

She owes him, that's a fact. To use some tricks to shirk her debt is really unlike her! Although she might be a little weak and sometimes a bit insecure, at the very least, she should keep her promise!

When she came down to eat, there was no sign of Xiao QIQI. She didn't ask, and Xiao Yi didn't say much either. He just held the bowl and spoon-fed her mouthful after mouthful. Lin Meng had protested this countless times, claiming she could feed herself, but most of the time he brushed it off. This man probably preferred this act of feeding her; seeing her eat small bites, a smile would always appear at the corner of his eyes!

"Xiao Yi, I want to eat tofu!"

This was her first time, as he was feeding her, that she called out the name of the dish she wanted to eat. In the past, he always unilaterally decided what dishes to serve her, and she never refused. Whatever he gave her, she ate it.

He seemed surprised, his hand holding the spoon coming to a halt. She said nothing, just watched the tofu with her eyes, waiting. He looked at her with some confusion, scooped a spoonful of tofu and brought it to her mouth. She opened her mouth and swallowed. After chewing a bit, she swallowed again and then shouted, “Carp!”

His eyes lit up this time. He picked up his chopsticks and, with a flourish, selected the plumpest piece of shoulder meat and delivered it to her mouth. Then, in a nonchalant whisper, he said, "Isn't everyone calling me A-Yi Why are you going back to calling me Xiao Yi!"

Weiwei expressed his protest!

She replied naturally, "Calling you 'Ayi' feels weird. You're not a kid anymore. Every time I say it, it feels awkward. So, how about calling you Xiao Yi It feels more natural and less awkward!"

He turned over several thoughts in his mind, seeing her young and delicate face so unusually calm, and he smiled softly.

"Suit yourself, call it whatever makes you comfortable!"

It sounds a little ambiguous.

Lin Meng's ear tips subtly flushed pink, she glanced away and pretended to continue eating as if nothing had happened. Unbeknownst to her, everything about her actions was still captured by Xiao Yi's silent gaze!

He knew that the distance between himself and this girl had probably narrowed a little bit!

To help Rong Ling, she was forced into his embrace. He understood her awkwardness, embarrassment, and occasional bouts of loss, shame, resentment, and irritability. It was difficult for her to accept him peacefully. That's why he indulged her unconditionally, sometimes even letting her have her way, as long as it wasn't a matter of principle. She no longer reluctantly agreed to his requests, calling him "A-Yi." Instead, she asserted herself, wanting to call him whatever felt comfortable. This could be seen as her acting out towards him, or perhaps as her becoming more free and spontaneous in front of him.

He doesn't want a Lin Meng who only flatters him, keeps her promises, and forces herself to cooperate with him. He hopes that the Lin Meng in front of him is someone who can speak her mind. If she's unhappy, she gets angry at him; if she's unwilling, she gives him a temper; if she's downcast, she vents her frustration on him; if she's happy, she smiles sweetly at him. Normally, she can sincerely talk to him about what's in her heart, without hiding anything from him or being insincere towards him!

Then, let's start with this one!

Let's start by saying her name is "Xiao Yi."

He will keep trying until she can naturally call out another, more affectionate nickname!

And Lin's dream was — to go with the flow! To make friends naturally, following her feelings. She didn't know how far she could go, but she would never again calculate this man!

After that, the two people could feel the awkward barrier between them being lifted. Their interactions became less stiff. Although she still expressed her displeasure with his tendency to touch her without permission, Xiao Yi was still very happy. Those close to him could sense his sunny disposition!

When he looked at her, he rarely had a composed face. He just came back that day and his face wasn't looking so good.

"Let's go out tonight!"

"Where to!"

He had previously said he wanted to take her out for a meal, but firstly, because of the newspaper incident before, she was reluctant to be exposed in public so soon; secondly, her plaster cast hand was also an issue. Going out to eat would likely attract ridicule and embarrassment, so she had always refused. After several attempts, seeing that she kept disagreeing, he never mentioned it again. Today, he suddenly brought it up again, and she couldn't help but ask him about it.

Xiao Yi explained that he wanted to take her to meet his friends!

Lin Meng hesitated, "Have to go! Can't I not go!"

She still doesn't want to go!

She knew her situation was awkward, so she might have brought trouble upon herself. She wanted to avoid it if possible!

"I'm just going to see some friends, I won't be gone long. Come out with me!" She had no choice but to go with him.

Lin Meng didn't want to make this man too difficult either. Some grievances, she could bear, and she would bear them. She nodded in agreement. When it was time to leave, he inexplicably said, "I want you in my heart, so if there's anything unpleasant, just listen to it and don't take it to heart!"

This, on the contrary, made Lin Meng feel that tonight's meeting with friends was probably not simple!

The last time they met was at a luxurious nightclub. Outside the spacious suite, two figures stood guard-like. Stepping into the room, one man and two women came into view. The man exuded a heavy aura of darkness, a lazy smile playing on his lips, with an undeniable air of charm. Though he sat down, his straight, long legs were impossible to ignore.

Among the two women, one was Xiao Qiqi, who Lin Meng knew well. The other woman was incredibly beautiful, with a slightly elongated face, but her eyebrows were eyebrows, and her eyes were eyes, she was extremely stunning!

Yes, this woman deserves the title "beautiful"!

She looked very mature and charming, with heavy makeup that didn't feel tacky at all but rather was stunningly beautiful. Her outfit was also very sexy, a tight T-shirt, low-rise jeans, and a pair of slender high heels, very alluring. Lin Meng felt her clothes were familiar, and she suddenly remembered, it seemed like Xiao Qiqi had appeared dressed like this last time. But Xiao Qiqi's attire seemed a bit cheap, but on this woman, it just looked so perfect!

Here it is!

The woman smiled faintly. Her body, which had been leaning against the sofa, straightened slightly as she sat up straight, looking at Lin Meng and Xiao Yi who had arrived later!

Although she only gave a faint greeting, it made one feel her overflowing confidence. Such an air is not something that someone who isn't very sure of themselves could possibly utter.

Next, the woman's sharp eyes swept across Lin Meng's body without a trace!

For a woman to truly embody the word "ferocious" is no easy feat!

Lin Meng didn't know what kind of occasion this was tonight, she just nodded and smiled, greeting him. She sat down with Xiao Yi. After a round of introductions, she learned that the man was called Long Yin, and the woman was called Ku Xia. Suddenly, Lin Meng's mind flashed back to what Xiao Qiqi had said that day - only Sister Xia is worthy of my brother. Could that so-called Sister Xia be this Ku Xia in front of her!

Lin Meng also glanced at Ku Xia without a trace. The final conclusion was that this woman was completely different from her type. The woman's personality should be forthright, but not lacking in restraint. She was mature, confident, and generous. In reality, she should also be a strong woman. This could be seen from what she said and the occasional unrestrained laughter!

This woman, she can completely dominate her man!

But what about it It’s best to compare less in this world. The ultimate outcome of comparison is nothing but two possibilities: one is self-deprecation and inferiority complex, the other is overconfidence and arrogance. Both are self-inflicted suffering!

A few people started chatting, mostly about nightclubs. Sometimes, the conversation would veer towards luxury cars. It seemed like the women were car enthusiasts too.Lin Meng didn't know much about this; her age and experience hadn't allowed her to delve into it much. Besides, she wasn't interested. She was just there to listen; there was no room for her to speak up. They probably didn't expect her to say anything anyway.

Then, Xiao Yi was called out, it seemed there was something, and he needed to go and handle it.

Lin Meng thought this was the time. Since Xiao Yi had brought her here especially, there must be something she needed to deal with. But the man and two women in front of her remained motionless, still talking to themselves as if she didn't exist.

Is she going to ignore her and then make things difficult for her! Lin Meng thought this way, feeling that if it were at this level, it would probably be disappointing.

Without needing any explanation, she also knew that her arrival was unwelcome.

As the ancients said: a match made in heaven!

This is actually very true, they weren't from the same social circle. How could their relationship last forever if they couldn't even talk on the same wavelength Before this, she was just a poor student, despite her academic excellence, but what did that matter She was too removed from society, almost blind to what was happening around her. So, it was difficult for her to join conversations and relate to other people's topics.

A person should have self-awareness!

This is also the reason why she doesn't want to get too involved with Xiao Yi!

The gap between her and him, or the gap between her and Rong Ling, couldn't be bridged by mere physical intimacy. When the passion faded, when the physical attraction waned, everything would become hollow!

“Where have you been for so long!” Ku Xia abruptly stopped talking, pursed her lips, and raised her eyes to look at Lin Meng. She ordered him without any politeness: “Go get him back, if the guest is being disrespectful and still bothering us, just say it’s me, Sister Xia, who said so, and tell Xiao Yi to come back quickly!”

Lin Meng stood up, and then, under the instruction of a guard at the door in the sweltering heat, she was led to Xiao Yi by another guard. After about five or six minutes, as they turned a corner, the guard stopped, and Lin Meng also stopped. She realized that the scene before her was what had truly been waiting for her all along.

Against a backdrop slightly dimmed, on a marble pillar sculpted with intricate detail, a beautiful woman reclines seductively. Her clothing is partially revealed, accentuating her alluring figure. With her porcelain-white arms, she encircles the head of a man, her delicate fingers, like wisps of spring onion, intertwine provocatively within his hair, guiding him closer to her chest. The woman pants softly, her moans filled with a fiery passion, rising and falling in an enticing rhythm. Her exquisite face radiates an irresistible allure, driving one mad.

And the man that the woman was embracing, was -- Xiao Yi!

Lin Meng stood there, calmly watching, her heart filled with neither sadness nor joy. The characteristic gloom of the nightclub enveloped her small face, hiding it in darkness, leaving only a dazzling white!

She stared at him, without saying a word.

When the woman lifted her slender legs and rubbed them against Xiao Yi's waist, she was pushed away by him. The woman wouldn't give up, letting out a coquettish hum. "Brother Yi, don't stop..."

That low, husky murmur could make a man's bones melt.

Xiao Yi lowered his head and gave the woman a passionate French kiss before letting go of the breathless beauty.

"See you next time!"

He murmured softly, turned and let her go, without a trace of reluctance! But as he turned around and met that face like white jade emitting smoke, his smile with a hint of devilish charm froze.

He felt he was being watched, but thought it was just bored customers, until he realized it was her!

In the blink of an eye, scenes flashed through his mind, and he realized that even in the scorching summer, he hadn't escaped its heat!

He was called out and met this woman. They got intimate, but then he ran into Lin Meng. This sudden encounter made him realize that he had been set up. He desperately wanted to explain, but at the moment, all his explanations seemed feeble. What could he say That he was just playing along That he was also a man who couldn't have her even though he held her every day His desire was almost unbearable, and he needed another way to release the burning passion in his heart. But would such an explanation work on her This young girl probably wouldn't tolerate even a grain of sand in matters of love. She thought that if he wanted to pursue her, he should be as pure as jade!

While several thoughts raced through his mind, she merely pursed her lips lightly and said, "Sister Xia seems to be waiting impatiently. She's calling you back. Go back soon!"

She remained expressionless, neither angry nor disappointed. It seemed as if what she saw before her was just an ordinary scene, and that he had done nothing related to her at all. This – came like a bucket of cold water splashing over Xiao Yi from head to toe!

He strode forward and suddenly grabbed the woman who was calmly turning to walk away.

"Not angry!" His tone suddenly took on a dangerous edge.

Neither nodding nor shaking her head, that was Lin Meng's attitude. She just looked at Xiao Yi, just like that, faintly.

Xiao Yi used his sharp eyes, meticulously searching her delicate face, desperately hoping to glean something from it. But he -- was disappointed. This face, clean and clear, had nothing!

It's incredibly clean!

"How can you not be angry at all!" Xiao Yi's anger flared, and he grabbed her shoulders, his grip tightening involuntarily.

Lin Meng lightly frowned, then unfolded it.

"Let me go!" she said softly. "Your affairs are none of my concern!"

Once upon a time, a man told her: Lin Meng, you stay out of my affairs!

The painful lesson had long ago made her remember this: things that don't concern her shouldn't be meddled with. Xiao Yi wanted to enjoy the company of men and women, and she couldn't stop him!

Ke Xiao Yi began to violently shake her shoulders, looking extremely angry and yelling loudly.

"Lin Meng, how can you be so heartless I've done everything for you, and I don't even get a shred of anger from you! How can you be so cruel Can you spare me a little bit of your heart Will you die if you do!"

All Lin Meng could respond with was silence!

Xiao Yi's grip loosened abruptly, he turned and walked away, leaving a furious remark before departing.

"Lin Meng, you're ruthless!"

Approaching the woman, he reached out and pulled her close, embracing her, then strode away.

He longed for Lin Meng to speak up, to call him back, to stop him from leaving, to let go of that woman. He wanted her to show a hint of jealousy, to express even slightly that she cared about him. But as he walked farther and farther away, until he disappeared from Lin Meng's sight, not a single word came from her!

Disappointment, in his heart, began to spread endlessly!

Pride and arrogance, they make it impossible for him to turn back!

Lin Meng pursed her lips, turned around, and walked back the way she came. She reached the door of the private room but didn't go in. Instead, she gave a cold explanation.

"Sorry, I can't call Xiao Yi back. He left with a woman!"

Summer smiled, making no sound, only her blood-red lips stretched open in a wide grin. Within the seductive display, there was an evil coldness. Lin Meng felt that there was nothing about this woman worth admiring, she had little fondness for her to begin with, and now, it had vanished completely.

"I'm leaving first!"

She cast that remark off lightly and walked away. Unbeknownst to her, Ku Xia winked at the guards at the entrance.

It then became difficult to proceed!

Suddenly, Lin Meng was stopped by a middle-aged man with a lecherous smile and gleaming eyes.

"New goods!" The middle-aged man chuckled at the black-clad guard. The guard smiled without replying, which could be taken as tacit acceptance.

A middle-aged man let out a low whistle, his gaze fixed on Lin Meng's hand encased in plaster. His eyes took on a strange, sinister glint.

"tsk tsk, what a heartless person! How could you mistreat such a beautiful young lady!"

But he thought, it must be that some heavy taste customer used means after, only let Lin Meng become this appearance!

Lin Meng quietly took a step back, her hand stealthily reaching into her pocket. There, nestled within, lay a cell phone. Behind nearly face-covering sunglasses, she stared intently at the middle-aged man and the guard standing beside him. Her nimble fingers, guided by touch, tried to find several keys and then pressed down!

She knew, things were going to be bad!

If the previous Xiao Yi and that woman were a setup, then wouldn't she immediately become another one with this middle-aged man in front of her!

"Go ahead, I won't see you off!"

The guard suddenly said something like that and turned away. This was basically letting the middle-aged man off the hook.

"Wait!" Lin Meng shouted.

The guard remained deaf to his pleas, and the middle-aged man was about to rush up angrily.

Lin Meng's heart was filled with anger. She shouted, "Don't you fear Xiao Yi!"

The guard remained silent and strode away by himself.

The middle-aged man burst into laughter and said, "What's Xiao Yi think he is! Little beauty, come with me, I'll give you a satisfactory appearance fee!"

This person doesn't know Xiao Yi, and because Xiao Yi's identity is very mysterious, they don't easily reveal it to the outside world!

As he spoke, Lai came to Lin Meng. Although Lin Meng was disheveled at the moment, with most of her face covered, it did not obscure her graceful figure or her skin as white as jade. White, against a black background, was naturally the most stimulating to one's desire!

The phone in my pocket has already dialed the number, but what comes through is the robotic, gentle voice of customer service: "I'm sorry, the user you dialed has been switched off. Please try again later…"

The person hiding in the shadows laughed, a joyful laugh!

Lin Meng also smiled, but her smile was extremely bleak. At that moment, as hope dwindled, her heart turned cold!

Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi, actually you're quite ruthless!

In such a mixed place of dragons and snakes, you say go, just go, say shut down, just shut down, you are actually quite trustworthy!

Who truly cares about whom

Men, men, your synonym is -- ruthless!

When it comes to letting go, men are definitely faster and more ruthless than women!

And so she laughed, a radiant smile. Her lips, unadorned with any lipstick, were the most natural shade of rosy pink. She knew she must look beautiful when she smiled! And indeed, the middle-aged man before her immediately brightened up.

"Come here," she beckoned him softly, her voice laced with seduction.

The man chuckled, a flush of desire creeping across his face as he, like an eager puppy, obediently came closer.

Lin Meng drew her hand out of her pocket, ignoring the ridiculous phone, and gently placed it on the man's shoulder. Her crystal-white fingers, with their extreme smoothness, slowly touched the man's face. Her fingertips held a faint warmth, and when he was touched by her small hand, his heart melted. Looking at her seductive smile, he became impatient and reached out to hug her waist.

"Don't rush!" she said softly, dodging away, her slender hand pushing against his chest with a bit of force. She giggled and commanded, "Go over to that pillar!"

The man's eyes widened suddenly, staring at the pretty face that even sunglasses couldn't hide. He swallowed hard. Could it be, was this woman going for a wild live version!

The man was excited, breathing heavily, he reached out and touched her face lustfully, chuckling to himself, then pulled her along.

She smiled sweetly and followed him step by step. Soon, the two arrived in front of a pillar. The man was eager to climb her up, pushing her against the pillar. Lin Meng beat him to it, wriggling free with a slight struggle, and whispered breathlessly, "Don't rush, let me, let me serve you well..."

"Hmph..." The man's face flushed with excitement, but it was Lin Meng's small hand that suddenly covered his abdomen. Although she didn't get the right spot at first, the man thought it was teasing, and he became even more excited, even twisting his hips to make it easier for her to satisfy his desires.

Lin Meng smiled, a charming smile, a seductive smile.

Fingers, forcing themselves to remain calm, gently pulled open his zipper and then reached in!

"Oh—" The man gasped, trembling with excitement.

Her hand, reaching into her underwear, touched the thing that was already raised, slowly and tentatively circling it, then slowly circling it downwards.

The man began to hum, feeling incredibly comfortable!

Lin Mengqiang endured the nausea, everything she did was prepared for this moment. Her heart turned cold, at that moment, everything felt distant. She loosened her grip, then tightened it suddenly, fiercely squeezing down, heavily, with a force that could squeeze the water out of a potato!

"Owww!" The man let out a pig-like squeal. His face, flushed with excitement, turned pale in an instant. He raised his hand and without hesitation, slapped Lin Meng across the face. In a flash, he sent her sunglasses flying off, revealing her complete appearance!

"You bitch!" The man angrily shoved her with all his might, his face contorted in pain and twisted into a crumpled mess.

Lin Meng's grip tightened. Even though this man pushed and punched her, she refused to let go. His most vulnerable spot was right there; being held hostage in that way meant failure was inevitable. The pain overwhelmed him, leaving his legs weak as he collapsed onto the ground. As Lin Meng retracted her hand, he could no longer rise. He fell, clutching his groin, letting out a low moan of agony.

Lin Meng stared coldly, she could turn and leave now, escape, but she didn't!

Is it necessary!

Nobody is that stupid!

If she had already made arrangements, then there was no way she could escape. Without this middle-aged man, there would naturally be other men. The reason she resorted to such cruelty, nearly severing others' lineages, and disregarded the consequences of potentially going to jail, was because everyone has a temper and a bottom line.

She was annoyed!

She also has a wild side deep down. She would rather be a broken jade than an intact tile, as can be seen from her decisive choice to commit suicide.

She stood there, her black eyes wide, watching the man on the ground, groaning in pain, with a hint of mockery in her gaze.

After a long while, besides the man's cries of agony, there was utter silence!

Isn't this strange Such a nightclub, bustling with people. Even if it's a bit more upscale, there should at least be some activity! The lack of movement can only mean that it was cleared out!

There was a faint sound of footsteps, growing a little louder, indicating that the person was getting closer to her. She turned her head and saw him-- Xiao Yi, he had returned.

He just can't give up on Lin Meng like that!

Even if the anger flares up again, there's no way I could just abandon her like that!

"What's going on!"

His sharp eyes swept around the room, landing on the pathetic and pained man sprawled on the floor, before finally settling on Lin Meng. His gaze lingered on her face, particularly on the slightly swollen area, a clear sign of violence inflicted upon her.

"He hit you!" A flash of blood red crossed his eyes.

Lin Meng nodded lightly, then opened her eyes and looked at Xiao Yi. She walked to the man's side, squatted down, and pulled him up. "Slap, slap" she slapped the man back and forth ten times, ten heavy slaps, beating the man's mouth until he bled. When she stopped, there were five clear fingerprints on the man's face, red and swollen. He was knocked unconscious when she let go of him, his head smashing onto the ground like a dead pig.

Xiao Yi glared at the man's already open trousers, a murderous intent flashing in his eyes. He pulled out his phone and made a call. Immediately, two people came over, carried the man away.

"I won't let the one who hurt you get away with it!" he said, walking closer to her.

"What did he do to you"

Lin Meng shook her head, unwilling to say more.

He looked at her innocent little face, pursed his thin lips heavily before giving a hoarse explanation: "I only kissed that woman, playing along for the sake of the performance, it wasn't real..."

"This is your business, you don't need to explain it to me!" Lin Meng interrupted him!

But he went on, “I didn’t mean to take her away. I just did it to make you angry on purpose. I wanted you to get mad at me, to yell at me. I wanted you to care about me!”

But she didn't say another word.

His explanation came too late!

"I..." he wanted to say, feeling trapped. But if he didn't take the bait, it wouldn't really catch him. So, an explanation would be utterly pale and powerless!

Alright then!

Go back!

He reached out and pulled her.

She dodged and walked on by herself.

His eyes turned cold, and he couldn't help but sneer: "Rong Ling has touched other women before, and slept with other women. Don't think he's that clean either. If you could accept him like that, why are you so harsh on me"

She trembled, bit her lip, and walked away without a word.

As soon as Xiao Yi finished speaking, he regretted it and cursed himself in his heart!

He took a step forward, ignoring her resistance, and forcefully grabbed her hand. He softened his tone first. "Let's just forget about what happened today. Like I said, you're the one I want in my heart, but you never let me touch you... You have to know, sometimes men just can't control their desires..."

So, that's it then Lin Meng smiled mockingly in her heart, stopped walking, turned to face him, and gave a light smile, yet refused to mention the woman.

"Xiao Yi, your world is too far from mine. It's really not suitable for me. From now on, please don't bring me out anymore!"

Even if she didn't know much about his friends, she knew they were all formidable. She couldn't afford to provoke them, but she could certainly avoid them.

Having finished speaking, she took the initiative to reach out and grab Xiao Yi's hand, smiling. "Send me back!"

Behind her smile, no one but herself could see what lay beneath.

Xiao Yi hated this situation. The originally amicable relationship had become strained simply because he couldn't control himself for a moment. Perhaps, on days like these, when he encountered that former bedmate, he should have been more cautious and pushed the woman away. But the desire that had been suppressed for almost two months was unable to resist the temptation of the well-trained woman, so in a fit of passion, he kissed her, allowing the woman to tease his desires relentlessly.

He truly only wanted to possess her, Lin Meng!

Celibacy, all I want is her!

But she, on the other hand, was utterly indifferent, cruelly heartless!

His face grew cold, and he began to mock him as well.

It's not that my world is far from you, but that you never even considered stepping into it. I have opened everything to you, but you refuse to enter. You think, what am I doing bringing you here today!

He smirked again, a self-deprecating chuckle escaping his lips. "If I truly wanted another woman, I could easily do so behind your back and ensure you'd never know a thing! If you had any sense, you'd see this for what it is. Besides, if I only wanted to play with you, I wouldn't have brought you to meet my friends!"

He hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward.

Let's go back!

She fell silent, a bitter smile playing on her lips: Xiao Yi, you don't understand at all. I had already made up my mind to enter your world! Otherwise, she wouldn't have forced herself to come out with him when he called for her!

She hadn't expected this; instead, it only made her realize how naive and childish she was!

I need to go to the restroom!

She suddenly stopped, her hand touching something so disgusting, she couldn't stand to just keep riding the car home.

Xiao Yi followed her, watching as she entered the restroom. He kept a distance and waited outside. Feeling restless, he habitually reached into his pocket for a cigarette lighter but then remembered that woman's complaint about the smell of smoke. He could only sullenly push the cigarette back into the box, tuck it back into his pocket, and continue waiting outside.

A gasp of surprise rose from his side.

"Yi Ge, you haven't left yet!"

Xiao Yi turned his head and saw his brother -- Long Yin.

Just by looking at him, you know he must have crawled out of the men's restroom!

He narrowed his eyes, anger welling up inside him. With a sudden fist, he lunged at Long Yin. Long Yin hurriedly dodged and exclaimed, "Wing brother, what are you doing!"

Xiao Yi let out a cold snort. "You were here to be my companion, and this is how you help me!" He was actually watching Ku Xia design him!

"What's going on!" Long Yin whispered, confused. He hurriedly pressed down on Xiao Yi's shoulders and leaned close to his ear. "Keep it down, Xia Jie is in there. I'm worried she'll hear!"

What's in here!

Xiao Yi suddenly tensed, and asked in a low voice, "She's in the women's restroom!"

The dragon nodded.

Xiao Yi suddenly flashed, and rushed into the women's restroom. In an instant, sharp female voices rose and fell.

"Lin Meng!" Xiao Yi didn't care about anything else, he roared!

But there was no reply.

Before, Long Yin thought Xiao Yi's actions were too abrupt, but now she finally understood what happened!

"Lin Meng went in too!"

He followed in, with a flash of his peach blossom eyes, they twirled like this, and half the women in the restroom were electrocuted. The other half had already been knocked out by Xiao Yi!

Calls to Lin Meng were unsuccessful, and Ku Xia didn't respond either. It can be confirmed that Lin Meng was definitely taken away by Ku Xia. The daughter of the former Silver Wolf Group leader is not an ordinary woman. Her skills are unmatched even by ordinary men!

Xiao Yi was furious, thinking to himself: "Ku Xia, Ku Xia, you asked to see Lin Meng, and I agreed. I even brought the person here. You can scheme against me, but to have your scheme fall on Lin Meng's shoulders is truly despicable!"

He burst out of the restroom and frantically pulled out his phone, starting to dial.

The moment the phone rang, he exclaimed in a frantic voice, “Ku Xia, you bring him back to me immediately!”

"Hee hee..." A mature woman's voice with a thick smile came from the phone. "Xiao Yi, I'll take her away first. You picked this one woman and kept her like a treasure, even calling Long Yin to protect me! Then I should study what makes this woman so different!"

"You're going too far with this summer heat!" Xiao Yi said angrily, gritting his teeth as he spoke each word to her.

The hot summer merrily laughed from the other end.

"If you want her to be your woman, you should at least make the people below you convinced. The future mistress of the Silver Wolf Gang should have some extraordinary skills. Rest assured, I'm doing this for your own good. Let's just wait and see!"

After she finished speaking, she abruptly hung up the phone.

Xiao Yi called again, but the phone was already turned off.

"Damn it!"

Xiao Yi cursed softly, turning to instruct Long Yin. "Quickly ask the brothers downstairs, where did Ku Xia go! Has anyone seen her! Also, immediately investigate what car she drove out in, and if anyone went with her!"

The two of them worked separately at first, not mentioning it.

Over there, Ku Xia sat in the back seat, sizing up Lin Meng who had been knocked unconscious by her. She let out a few clicks of amusement and muttered, "Look at him, he's so nervous that he even threatened me!"

The man driving in front tightened his grip on the steering wheel and hesitated, asking, "Xia Jie, what if Wing Ge catches us That wouldn't be good, right!"

"What are you afraid of!" Ku Xia coldly snorted. "Can he possibly eat you Relax and drive, just keep your mouth shut. If the sky falls, I'll take care of it. I don't believe Xiao Yi would dare to do anything to me for this one woman!"

As she spoke, she pouted her rosy lips in a petulant manner.

The loyal subordinates didn't dare say anything more, continuing to keep the car at a high speed as they sped away. Aside from stopping for gas or using the restroom, the car hardly stopped at all. Even food was prepared in the car beforehand. It was clear that this trip had been meticulously planned!

Lin Meng woke up, but she couldn't escape. Ku Xia was playing with a silver pistol in her hand. Although the pistol was small, it was no less deadly. She played with the gun gracefully, like a silver dragon circling around her small hand, flipping between her palm and back of her hand. Ku Xia didn't look at the gun, only Lin Meng. Her posture was both leisurely and full of evil charm.

"Just sit in the car with me quietly. Don't talk, and don't even think of any crooked thoughts. Then I won't do anything to you! If you're arrogant enough to try to run, my gun will have no eyes. I could blow you away, it would be as simple as crushing an ant. But I don't want Xiao Yi to be too heartbroken, so I really don't intend to kill you for now. Lin Meng, will you behave"

The woman smiled, glancing at her sideways, like a wicked witch who couldn't tell right from wrong.

Lin Meng is really fearless!

Without a care in the world, that's her current state!

But since he has already attempted suicide once, he should cherish his life a little more. If he can't die, then it's naturally better not to die!

"What do you want to do!" she chuckled wryly, taking a deep breath, and asked Ku Xia.

"Hee hee, I'll take you to a good place and see if you have the guts to come back. Being Xiao Yi's woman, you always have to have some skills! If you can come back, I won't make things difficult for you anymore; if you can't, hee hee..."

After that, she didn't say anything more!

However, when Lin Meng was finally put down from the car, she understood what Ku Xia meant by his unfinished words. If she couldn't make it back, she would probably only die on this vast expanse of loess!

In the scorching summer, Ku Xia drove north-west. Every time Lin Meng got out of the car, she could feel the temperature dropping. The short-sleeved shirt, seven-point pants, and sandals she wore were no longer enough to keep her warm. The difference in temperature between east and west, south and north was evident.

After leaving Lin Meng behind, Ku Xia and the driver, Qi Qi, drove away. Of course, before getting out of the car, Ku Xia had taken everything from Lin Meng, including his money, phone, and other valuables. Ku Xia even tried to take off the anklet on Lin Meng's ankle, but Lin Meng stopped her.

"This was given to me by my last boyfriend, I swear, I won't take it off for the rest of my life!"

As she said this, her heart was calm, but she didn't know what expression was on her face. In short, Ku Xia smiled meaningfully at her for a long time before withdrawing her hand, not taking the anklet away, and letting her go.

Loess hills stretching endlessly before your eyes!

Besides loess, it's just loess!

There are no houses or shops in front or behind, and you can't even see a single person!

Looking up, she was met with an endless expanse of blue. So deep was the blue that even the clouds seemed to disappear. There was nothing to obstruct her view; the sky appeared close, almost within reach. Yet, this vast distance remained unbridgeable. Without any buildings to shield her, the wind on the high slope turned icy cold, howling in her direction and raising goosebumps on her skin.

She trembled, wrapping her hand around herself, and then saw her right hand encased in plaster.

She couldn't help but smile bitterly.

That's it!

She who cries to heaven and receives no answer, who cries to earth and finds no echo, will likely die in this place!w-class.He turned and left, but instead of returning to the bedroom, he went to the study. His back was cold and tall, exuding an aura of invincibility. Uncle Zun actually wanted to smile, but seeing...
