Su Ruan had been having a terrible time lately.
You could say she ran into obstacles everywhere.
Earlier, she had worked as a server at the eldest miss of the Wen family’s banquet, but in the end that damned manager still used the contract as an excuse to extort 50,000 yuan from her.
Su Ruan was so angry she almost coughed up blood, yet she had no choice but to pay.
Now she no longer had Qin Yu backing her.If things really escalated into a lawsuit, she would be finished.
But those fifty thousand…She had secretly saved it for years behind the backs of that blood-sucking family of hers — all from part-time jobs.
And in the end, all of it went to that wretched manager.
Su Ruan placed all the blame on Qin Yu.
If it weren’t for him, would she have offended the Wen family and been kicked out by the manager?!
That man was pure bad luck.
In her previous life he imprisoned her in the manor like a plaything.Yes, she had delicious food and fine clothes every day, with no worries about survival —
But she, Su Ruan, was a human.
Not an animal.
That man imprisoned her freedom and even delusionally wanted her to fall in love with him.
Ridiculous fantasy!
Su Ruan thought Qin Yu was destined to die alone in this life.
Because he was an out-and-out deranged psychopath.
What normal person would ever fall in love with a madman?
In her previous life, Su Ruan had threatened Qin Yu with her life just to go out and work.
Afraid she would really jump off a building, even though it pained him and he didn’t want to, he still arranged a position for her in the company.
But because of that, Qin Yu became even more irritable and unstable.
Every day he had to take massive amounts of medication just to barely control his emotions.
Now—
Su Ruan looked up at the towering landmark building before her.
Her eyes were filled with pride and vanity.
She knew it — with her prestigious university background, why would she ever need that man to pull strings for her?
Even without Qin Yu, hadn’t she entered the Qin Corporation through her own ability?
In her previous life she had risen quickly in the company.Everyone flattered her.
Wasn’t that because of her outstanding professional ability?
Now she had once again entered Qin Corporation.
Su Ruan believed that before long she would be promoted and receive raises just like before, admired by everyone.
And this time—
She would not need Qin Yu at all.
“Wu-Wu… hold tighter.”
“I love you so much.”
“I love you…”
Under the hazy warm light,two intimately entangled silhouettes were reflected on the huge floor-to-ceiling window.
The tall, imposing figure held the petite girl firmly in his arms.
His large hand tightly gripped her slender waist.
“Qin Yu—”
“Mmm… Qin Yu, you…”
The girl spoke with shy annoyance, clearly not expecting him to be so bad, and she couldn’t handle it for a moment.
“Wu-Wu, my head hurts.”
“Kiss me.”
“One kiss and it won’t hurt anymore.”
Afraid she would get angry and ignore him, Qin Yu whined pitifully in her ear.
Sure enough, the girl’s struggling weakened.
Even though she was bullied to the point her eyes were watery, she still obediently kissed the corner of his lips again.
Feeling the gentle affection in Wen Wu’s actions, the strange light in Qin Yu’s eyes deepened.
If he had a tail right now, it would probably be spinning like a propeller.
Taking an inch after being given a foot — that perfectly described Qin Yu now.
Ever since Wen Wu had been kept in the manor by Qin Yu, he hadn’t gone to the company at all.
Every day he either clung to her asking for kisses or asking for hugs.
In the morning he carried her around the manor to look at the scenery;in the afternoon he held her while working in the study.
These days Wen Wu lived like a pampered freeloader — she felt she’d gotten rounder.
“Wu-Wu.”
Just now his assistant called — there was a problem with the southern city development project.
This time he had to leave Tan Garden and go to the company.
But Qin Yu wished he could tuck Wen Wu into his belt and carry her everywhere.
So he angrily scolded the assistant.He paid him millions a year and he still couldn’t handle this?
Seeing Qin Yu dressed formally in a suit, Wen Wu guessed he was going to the company.
“Wu-Wu, I need to go to the company. I’ll be back soon.”
Qin Yu looked at her with reluctance and hidden expectation.
Actually he wanted to bring her along.Recently she had been especially indulgent toward him.
Except for refusing him in one particular matter, she never rejected anything else.
Qin Yu had no awareness how excessive his requests were.
He always believed Wu-Wu belonged only to him.
Even her daily needs had to be handled personally by him.
But this time he didn’t dare ask —after all, last night he had bullied her until she cried.
After reporting everything, Qin Yu walked out while constantly looking back at Wen Wu sitting on the sofa.
Wen Wu knew exactly what he was thinking.
“Ah-Yu, bye-bye.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll wait obediently at home.”
Since returning to Tan Garden, Wen Wu had been very obedient — sometimes so obedient that seeing the chain on her ankle made Qin Yu feel distressed.
So later, without her asking, one night he quietly unlocked it.
Since then he never thought of chaining her again.
Hearing her obedient reply, Qin Yu should have been happy —
But he couldn’t smile.
Wu-Wu didn’t love him anymore.
That had to be it.
Otherwise why didn’t she try to keep him?
Even just once.
Having discovered this “truth,” the light vanished from his eyes.
His grievance and sadness made him look fragile as he walked out absent-mindedly.
Only after his figure disappeared from her sight did Wen Wu decide it was enough.
She smiled, jumped off the sofa, and ran outside just before he got into the car.
“Qin Yu!”
Because she didn’t come with him and he was always the one clinging to her, Qin Yu was radiating cold gloom —
Her soft cry made him freeze.
He turned back.
The girl stood there, delicate and beautiful.
“Ah-Yu, did you forget an important treasure at home?”
His eyes instantly lit up as he strode toward her.
She buried herself in his broad chest, breathing his cool pine scent.
Softly she murmured:
“Ah-Yu, next time don’t forget me again… or I’ll be angry.”
“Okay. My fault this time.”
“Sorry, baby.”
“It’s fine. I forgive you.”
After placing Wen Wu in the car, Qin Yu got in from the other side.
The car started slowly; the back partition lowered.
Wen Wu sat on his lap while his veined hand tightly held her waist.
“Baby, why is your waist so thin?”
Her face flushed shyly.
Her porcelain cheek rubbed against his handsome face; her fingers unconsciously traced circles on his chest.
Embarrassed, mist gathered in her eyes.
“Then… do you like it?”
His breathing suddenly deepened; he grabbed the mischievous hand.
Qin Yu lowered his head and gently kissed her lips.
“Wu-Wu, be good.”
“Don’t tease me.”
The delicate girl pursed her lips and obediently settled down in his arms.
“Okay…”
