The room was in disarray, with n’s and won’s clothes piled haphazardly on the floor.
Sheng Yu watched in disbelief, trembling all over.
She fiercely turned to the woman on the bed, whose seductive red lips and mottled red marks on her neck told her that the woman had just been fiercely loved by a man.
Sheng Yu got up and questioned Bo Leng, "How can you do this to !"
Bo Leng’s cold eyes narrowed, "How have I wronged you? What is my relationship with you?"
Hearing the man’s cold words, Sheng Yu clutched her chest, "If it wasn’t for saving you five years ago, you would have beco a lone soul at sea by now! It was , I was the one who rescued you! It was who gave you a new life! Even if you seek other won, it can only be !"
An Yan, who had been hanging her head, felt her mind explode.
Five years ago?
At sea?
Her fingers clutching the blanket turned pale from the force, as a truth was about to erge.
Bo Leng’s voice was cold, "Does saving a life an I have to devote myself to you? Where is it so written?"
Sheng Yu cried out in despair, "Since you want a woman, why can’t it be ? Brother Leng, I’ve loved you for five years! A full five years!"
"But I don’t love you," Bo Leng said firmly.
’I don’t love you’ – these four words stabbed Sheng Yu harshly. She felt it was the woman on the bed who had seduced Bo Leng, otherwise, he would not have done this.
She wanted to tear the woman apart, her eyes filled with rage as she lunged again.
Before she could reach the bed, Bo Leng grabbed her arm and forcefully flung her away, his tone brooking no argunt, "Get out."
Sheng Yu’s face was streaked with tears, "You’re going to stay here?"
Bo Leng’s eyes were icy, "By what right do you question ? This is my private matter!"
Sheng Yu’s lips trembled, "Are you so heartless to ?"
"Just because you have feelings for and I don’t reciprocate, that makes heartless? Emotional matters can’t be forced. I’ve been with this woman for three years, and I don’t have feelings for her either; it’s just a physical need," Bo Leng blocked Sheng Yu’s hateful gaze toward the woman, "If you’ve seen enough, then get out. Don’t delay my real business."
A re affair is considered real business?
Sheng Yu gritted her teeth in hatred.
She wiped her tears, lifting her chin, "Dad has an auction tonight in the underground market, but the item has gone missing. Shouldn’t you be helping to find it now? That’s the real business, right?"
Bo Leng asked, "What item?"
Sheng Yu lied, "The ones Guo Bei and his n brought back from the north."
"Then tell what they are, so I can look for them."
Sheng Yu just wanted to get Bo Leng away now; then she could have her father’s n teach this despicable woman a lesson.
Competing with her for a man is utterly foolish!
Bo Leng knew what she was thinking and scoffed inwardly, "I’ll send her away first, then I’ll co back and help."
Sheng Yu never expected that, in Bo Leng’s heart, this woman would be more important than the artifact.
"No! The item Dad lost is very important!"
Bo Leng’s gaze turned icy, as if edged with frost, "Get out."
Sheng Yu had never seen Bo Leng look so cold and ruthless, his murderous aura as though it would devour her.
She instinctively retreated.
Bo Leng advanced step by step, pressing Sheng Yu back to the door and forcing her out, then he slamd the door shut with a bang.
As he turned back inside, the door was knocked again.
He paused his steps, his patience dropping to freezing point, he turned back and forcefully opened the door only to see Uncle Xing standing there.
Uncle Xing was very serious, lowering his voice, "Aleng, I need to talk to you."
After all, Bo Leng owed his life to this elder. He could refuse Sheng Yu, but he couldn’t refuse Uncle Xing, even though this ti Uncle Xing had conspired with Sheng Yu to deceive him.
As long as it didn’t go against his principles, he would still help them.
"I need to send soone away first, then I’ll co back."
Sheng Xing narrowed his eyes, "What are you doing here?"
Upon hearing this, Bo Leng understood that Sheng Xing was not just asking for his help to find an item, but was actually suspecting him.
"There’s a bar here, and rooms are available, it’s convenient for anything. It’s not strange to co here with a woman." Bo Leng smirked, "Uncle Xing, I’ve been with you for five years, are you doubting ?"
Sheng Xing’s lips were tightly pursed, and his shrewd triangular eyes glead with astuteness.
Bo Leng said, "Uncle Xing, you didn’t even tell about the auction here tonight, I don’t even know what you are auctioning off?"
Sheng Xing countered, "Do you really not know?"
Bo Leng was very firm, "I don’t know. Sheng Yu just said it was brought back by Guo Bei and his people."
He looked at Sheng Yu, "Right?"
Sheng Yu’s gaze flickered, busy avoiding eye contact.
Seeing this, Bo Leng scoffed, "Could it be that the auction item wasn’t brought back by Guo Bei? Uncle Xing, you didn’t tell about this auction, does this an you’ve already lost trust in ?"
After a long mont, Sheng Xing suddenly smiled, "How could that be? Actually, the auction item was brought back from Banqiao Town. Yu wanted to sell it to buy you a birthday present. The kid didn’t let tell you."
Knowing the truth, Bo Leng naturally didn’t believe Sheng Xing’s nonsense.
He chuckled, "So that’s what it was, then I really have to thank Sheng Yu."
Sheng Yu pressed her lips together, "No need to thank ."
Sheng Xing said, "These five cultural relics are worth hundreds of millions. You co with us to find them now, and I’ll have Guo Bei and his people send the woman back."
Bo Leng didn’t move.
Sheng Xing laughed loudly, "What? Are you afraid I’ll punish her? Don’t worry, since she is a woman you like, I absolutely won’t touch her."
Bo Leng still refused, "No need to trouble Uncle Xing, I’ll just call her a taxi. Wait for ."
After finishing his words, he closed the door, took a deep breath, and strode in.
He saw An Yan already dressed, standing by the bed, her eyes red as she looked at him.
Bo Leng approached her and watched the tears continue to slide down the woman’s face.
He grasped her hand to bring it to his face, but An Yan refused.
"I was wrong just now, you can take my life if you want."
An Yan shook her head, "Did you undergo plastic surgery?"
Bo Leng was taken aback; her brother had asked the sa question, "I haven’t had any surgery."
His fingertip reached toward his ear, about to lift off the Human Skin Mask when his phone began to vibrate, like a death knell.
He felt he couldn’t explain at the mont, "Can I co see you tonight? Then I will apologize to you."
An Yan nodded, her heart also filled with many questions, but there was no ti to probe at the mont.
"Your backpack, I’ll bring it to you later. Do you trust ?"
An Yan nodded, "I trust you."
Bo Leng’s heart settled, "Rest assured, I won’t deceive you."
"Okay." An Yan put on her mask, "Let’s exchange contact information."
Bo Leng nodded, and the two stored each other’s numbers in their phones.
Bo Leng picked up the hoodie from the floor and put it on, "In a while, I will take you to the taxi. Uncle Xing may have soone follow you; tell the driver to take a few extra rounds to shake them off."
An Yan said okay.
Bo Leng gazed at her, "Then, let’s go out."
An Yan nodded and followed him to the door.
She gripped the man’s arm, "Did Sheng Yu save you at sea five years ago?"
Bo Leng humd lightly, "Sheng Xing and his daughter Sheng Yu saved ."
"Aleng!" Sheng Xing’s cold voice ca through, "Aleng, are you done yet?"
Bo Leng saw that she seed to have sothing to say to him, "I’ll talk to you tonight."
