Li Susu scoffed lightly, "This boss is quick on his feet, he's a cunning old fox."

"He looked like a good person, but I never expected him to be a beast."

The scene of Master Liu impersonating Boss Li was still vivid in my mind. In front of him, Li Susu was as innocent as a little white rabbit.

"Alright, Su Su, it's getting late, you should rest too."

"Let's start the suburban project as soon as possible. Master Liu is currently lying low, so we can't find his weaknesses. If we start the project ahead of schedule, he will lose his composure."

Li Susu nodded, "That's right, that's what I was planning to do too."

“Now that he no longer has me as a hostage, and he can’t stop the project from starting, he’ll get anxious sooner or later.”

"I'll see what kind of trouble he gets into then!"

Li Susu snorted coldly. "Strike the snake at its vital point. You've ruined the career of Master Liu, the mastermind behind it all. Let's see how much it hurts him."

"Okay, then let's do it your way."

"Susu, you should rest now. Does it still hurt?"

The two older brothers were concerned about their younger sister's injuries, but Li Susu shook her head and smiled.

"Big brother, second brother, it's so good to have you both by my side."

"Don't worry, I'm not that fragile."

Hearing Li Susu's words, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief and decided to go back first.

Li Susu saw her two older brothers off. As soon as she stepped out the door, she saw Fu Xingzhou parked at the door next door.

He got out of the car looking exhausted. Because of the injury on his arm, Shen Ronghua had made a fuss for a long time and wouldn't let Fu Xingzhou go back to Haoluyuan.

Fu Xingzhou was only able to escape after nightfall.

Fu Xingzhou glanced at the next room, then walked towards Li Susu without hesitation.

Li Chenglin glanced at his sister and sighed.

"Susu, I can't control what you want to do, but I hope you can think carefully about your future."

"Don't let others lead you by the nose anymore."

Li Chenglin gave a few instructions, then pulled the bewildered Li Yulin into the car.

He didn't tell Li Yulin about what happened that day, because bringing it up every time would reopen his sister's wounds.

There's no need for that.

Fu Xingzhou watched the two brothers get into the car and leave without hesitation, his face displeased.

He was well aware that what happened at the hospital had caused his friends and himself to misunderstand each other.

Li Susu also lowered her eyes and glanced at the bandaged wound on his arm.

"Is your injury any better?"

Fu Xingzhou took a breath and simply extended his arm in front of Li Susu.

"It's probably not healed yet; it always hurts at night."

Li Susu frowned. She was unconscious when she was rescued, but she could imagine what Fu Xingzhou had gone through.

"Feel sorry."

This apology wasn't from Li Susu, but from Fu Xingzhou.

She looked up in surprise, completely bewildered.

Why are you apologizing?

“When you were in the hospital, your mother spoke rudely to you, and I failed to stop her in time.”

Li Susu looked away, her voice muffled.

"It's not your fault, it has nothing to do with you."

"Auntie is right. You don't need to make yourself like this for my sake."

"It's because I like to cause trouble that you..."

Before Li Susu could finish speaking, Fu Xingzhou grabbed her shoulder.

“Look up at me.”

Li Susu's heart pounded; she could feel Fu Xingzhou's burning gaze.

"Li Susu, are you afraid to look at me?"
