Wang Zirui showed a slightly annoyed expression, "Oh, you almost tricked me."
Having said that, Si Jiu always felt that he didn't really care. He even felt that he knew that his previous actions had been a trap for him, and everything he said just now was deliberately said to him.
She didn't know if he was trying to play some trick or if he was just doing what he wanted.
Si Jiu's heart was now filled with anxiety.
When she was captured by Xie Yu and his men before, except for the fact that Xiu injured her elder brother and his men at the beginning, which made Si Jiu very worried and anxious, she never worried that Xie Yu and his men would do anything to harm her elder brother and his men again.
Why hadn't she subconsciously thought about this question? Perhaps it was because Xie Yu and the others had directly targeted her, and since then they had spared no effort to focus their attention on her, so she knew that her brother and the others were safe.
But now Wang Zirui seems to be the complete opposite.
So his target was Qi Yan? Or perhaps, the people around her, including Qi Yan?
"They have no grudge against you. They are just ordinary people, don't hurt them. If you have any purpose, why not go after me..."
"Shh-"
Wang Zirui's eyes were a little cold, and he looked unhappy. "Why do you always defend them? I'm not happy anymore."
Do you think I'm happy?
Sijiu really wanted to lose her temper, but she held her temper. She'd discovered that Wang Zirui was truly moody and erratic. His way of thinking, if you had to put it bluntly, was like that of a headstrong, self-absorbed child with no sense of right and wrong.
"They are my family, my benefactors, and my friends. They took care of me, raised me, and loved me. Why shouldn't I protect them?"
"I won't allow you to do that!" Wang Zirui's voice suddenly became sharp. "You are not allowed to defend them."
He had stood up suddenly. His height and posture made him very oppressive, casting a shadow in front of Si Jiu, covering her who was sitting on the stool firmly in his shadow. Her face no longer had the well-behaved and lovely look just now. Her eyes were sharp and her expression was resentful.
Sijiu: “!”
She couldn't help but flinch.
This is the most instinctive reaction when people are afraid.
Wang Zirui's appearance at this moment was really scary. This kind of scaryness could not be said to be visual, but rather the psychological fear it brought to Si Jiu.
She could feel his anger and evil desire.
From his gloomy eyes, from his mean and resentful expression.
He leaned over and held out his hand.
Si Jiu didn't care about her momentum or composure, and shrank back into the chair. There was a chair back behind her, so she had nowhere to retreat. This desperate look made her look even more pitiful.
Wang Zirui paused.
Then, his face flashed with annoyance, and he squatted down again. The gloom in his eyes completely disappeared, and his gaze was clear again, even with a hint of flattery. "I didn't mean to scare you. Don't say things that will make me angry next time, okay?"
"I scared you, and I feel bad again."
He placed his hand on Sijiu's chin and rubbed it gently.
Si Jiu only felt that his hands were extremely cold, and her chin felt as if a cold-blooded animal had crawled over it. The coldness seemed to penetrate into her bones through her chin, and her teeth were even about to chatter.
Why is it so cold?
In this early summer season, is this the normal body temperature for people?
Si Jiu looked at Wang Zirui with an increasingly frightened look that could not be restrained.
