"Yes...yes!"

The steward was so frightened by the murderous intent that Tang Jian suddenly unleashed that he scrambled out of the Qibao Pavilion, completely forgetting about the Twin Phoenix Mirror he had been longing for!

Even the manager of Qibaoge was too scared to move.

Lin Zao, however, has remained silent since the housekeeper recognized her.

Tang Jian now looks like a furious lion, and even the air seems to be burning with his rage!

Lin Zao's heart tightened. Was he angry?

Or is he bothered by the fact that she has a fiancé?

"I···"

Before she could say anything, Tang Jian grabbed her hand forcefully and led her quickly into a private room at Qibaoge.

Lin Zao's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she withdrew what she was about to say, letting him pull her along.

The door was slammed shut with a loud bang!

Tang Jian suddenly turned around and forcefully pulled Lin Zao into his arms, holding her tightly.

"hiss!"

He was holding her so tightly that Lin Zao felt a little uncomfortable and struggled slightly.

Who knew that this would suddenly drive Tang Jian crazy? He reached out one hand to lift Lin Zao's chin and used the other hand to press down on the back of her head and kiss her wildly.

Lin Zao's breath was filled with Tang Jian's scent, making it difficult for her to breathe. She kept making "mmm" sounds and tried to push him away with both hands.

Instead of retreating, Tang Jian pushed her against the door behind her and continued to harass her, as if he wanted to suck away the last breath from her mouth.

Lin Zao's face was flushed, and tears welled up in her eyes. She felt weak all over, and if Tang Jian hadn't reached out and put his arm around her waist, she might have collapsed to the ground.

As if sensing that Lin Zao had stopped struggling, Tang Jian slowly released Lin Zao's lips, but did not completely leave. He continued to peck at Lin Zao, as if still savoring the moment.

Lin Zao was panting heavily; she almost fainted from the man's kiss!

She glanced at Tang Jian with a hint of lingering fear.

After this intimate moment, Tang Jian's inner turmoil subsided considerably, and he looked at Lin Zao rolling her eyes at him.

He raised an eyebrow. "My wife, are you not satisfied? Your husband is happy to oblige."

What's wrong with you?!

Lin Zao's voice was still a little hoarse.

Tang Jian then remembered what had just happened.

"My wife! You must remember that you are mine! And the mother of my children!"

The man gritted his teeth and spat out each word as if only in this way could Lin Zao forget that damned fiancé.

Lin Zao then realized that the man was jealous! She had thought he was angry that she had a fiancé.

Tsk tsk, so secretly passionate!

"Oh? What are you going to do if I go to see that fiancé?"

Lin Zao deliberately provoked him.

Fortunately, Tang Jian could tell that Lin Zao's expression wasn't serious, but her words still infuriated him.

"Then I'll kill that bastard and lock you up! Want to try?"

Tang Jian took a sinister bite of Lin Zao's lip.

"Oh! You were born in the Year of the Dog!"

Lin Zao gasped and punched Tang Jian's arm, only to hurt her own hand instead.

"My lady, promise me you won't go looking for that bastard! Otherwise, you're not leaving this house today!"

Sensing the deeper meaning in Tang Jian's words, Lin Zao looked at the man in surprise. How could his skin suddenly become thicker than a city wall?

Is this a place where you can act recklessly?

Lin Zao overlooked the fact that she hadn't objected to his words; she just felt the place was wrong.

"Don't worry! I don't remember anything from before, and I don't even know that fiancé who's all talk and no action! What are you worried about!"

Tang Jian stroked her slightly swollen red lips. "Is that so?"
