Thinking of this, Si Nanchen closed his eyes.
The subsequent events happened because he was too eager, leading to such an uncontrollable deterioration in his relationship with her.
"Dingling~"
The doorbell rang, and his brows furrowed slightly— who could it be at this ti?
Little did he expect that as soon as the door opened, his head was struck so hard that he instantly lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, Si Nanchen looked at the familiar place with a bitter smile. He had been here twice before, and each ti he ended up beaten to a pulp. Had today’s news already reached that man so quickly?
Si Nanchen lowered his head and looked at the floor. A pair of polished leather shoes appeared in his sight and stopped.
"Heh~" He chuckled softly, "Major Lu, CEO Lu, it seems you are blind in sight but not in heart." Zhuang Shuqing had only just returned, but he had already received the news, and furthermore, he responded to today’s events as swiftly as before.
"Si Nanchen, there’s a saying ’three strikes and you’re out.’ Today is the third ti; you should have used your brain before you laid a hand on my woman," Lu Jinyang’s voice, devoid of any warmth, echoed in the booth.
In the booth, besides Lu Jinyang, there was also soone Si Nanchen didn’t recognize. He thought that must be Lu Jinyang’s assistant or soone like that.
A thug, maybe?
"Lu Jinyang, you’re really not any better than . I haven’t seen her for five years, and you’ve lost her for five years. Now that she’s back, we’re competing on equal grounds. Heh heh~ Speaking of which, I still have an advantage over you," Si Nanchen looked up, his eyes brimming with dissatisfied mockery, "Even if she’s standing right in front of you, you still can’t see her!"
Lu Jinyang hadn’t expected Si Nanchen to be so bold as to challenge him.
Tonight he wore sunglasses, to keep the news of his regained sight private, bringing Peng Yi with him to guide the way.
Under the shades, his eyes were as deep and dangerous as the ocean at night, calm yet treacherous.
He pursed his lips slightly and sauntered over to the sofa to sit down. From Si Nanchen’s perspective, his movents were slow because of his inconvenient eyesight.
"Si Nanchen, do you know how many people have died? They died because they were fools!" He spoke expressionlessly, staring straight ahead, "Compete with fairly?"
Si Nanchen’s face darkened, "Don’t push too far! Lu Jinyang, you’re no longer Major Lu now; all your glory cos from your family. Without your family, you’re nothing!"
The man took the wine glass Peng Yi handed him, elegantly swirling the red liquid inside but not in a hurry to drink, "Since you think so lowly of , I’ll give you a chance. One month—if you can’t bring down, then wait for to do so to you in one week!"
"Hahahaha~"
It was as if Si Nanchen had heard sothing hilarious, and he burst into raucous laughter, "Such big talk! Just don’t end up slapping your own face."
Lu Jinyang didn’t respond, simply bringing the glass to his lips for a light sip, "Peng Yi, see the guest out."
Upon hearing this, Peng Yi stepped forward to untie him and personally escorted him to the door.
It wasn’t that he was worried Si Nanchen would cause trouble, but that he was afraid Si Nanchen might take the chance to run away—there were many things here he couldn’t let Si Nanchen know about.
Back in the booth, Lu Jinyang leaned on the sofa, tiredly rubbing his eyes.
He had been using his eyes a lot these days and was not yet accustod to it, but he couldn’t help surreptitiously watching every smile and frown of his woman.
After Peng Yi entered and stood silently at the side for a while, Lu Jinyang finally spoke up, "How’s the information I asked you to check?"
