The night was deep.
The cool night breeze did not dispel the ambiguous and thick atmosphere in the room.
On the large bed, Lu Zhufeng embraced Ai Ruoman, who was covered in sweat, and sat against the headboard.
Ai Ruoman's long hair was loose, and her eyes, hidden beneath the strands, revealed a mixture of satisfaction and bitterness.
This bastard's stamina is getting better and better; he almost made her cry and beg for mercy again just now.
She pulled the blanket up to her chest, covering her snow-white skin covered with ambiguous marks, and then pressed her face against Lu Zhufeng's broad chest.
Her warm fingertips, filled with fascination, gently traced lines on Lu Zhufeng's sexy abs.
The next second, she clearly felt her lower abdomen tighten suddenly.
Ai Ruoman looked up and met Lu Zhufeng's dark gaze. His face was tense, his lips were pursed, and his large Adam's apple bobbed slightly.
Ai Ruoman's gaze suddenly trembled slightly. She was all too familiar with this expression; it was a sign of his unsatisfied desire.
Lu Zhufeng hugged her tightly, lowered his head, and leaned close to her ear. His hot breath sprayed on her sensitive earlobe, sending a tingling, electric sensation straight into her heart.
Lu Zhufeng's voice was low and dark: "Manman, one more time."
Ai Ruoman's eyes trembled, and she subconsciously shook her head.
She admitted it felt...good, but if she continued, her back would be ruined.
Lu Zhufeng gently pinched her chin, leading her gaze downwards. Below, a tent was pitched on the thin blanket.
His lips brushed lightly against her earlobe, his voice hoarse:
"Manman, take care of it."
As soon as he finished speaking, he lifted the blanket with one hand and leaned over to her.
The room temperature continued to rise, creating an extremely ambiguous atmosphere.
...
Lu Zhufeng carried Ai Ruoman out of the bathroom; she had already fallen asleep from exhaustion.
Her lips moved slightly as she mumbled indistinctly, her voice tinged with resentment.
Her eyelashes fluttered, it was so cute.
Lu Zhufeng couldn't help but kiss her forehead, carefully pulling the blanket up and tucking the corners in.
He sat on the edge of the bed and gazed at her quietly for a long time.
He then grabbed the black suit that was folded up by the bed, put it on, and then grabbed a silver briefcase from under the bed.
He glanced back at Ai Ruoman, then tiptoed out of the room.
He walked along the stairs, downstairs, and out of the main house.
The nights in April aren't cold; the cool night breeze feels refreshing rather than chilly.
In the quiet manor, his deep footsteps echoed softly.
Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks.
In a dimly lit corner, on a bench, a slender figure sat with legs crossed, exuding elegance.
She held a slender cigarette between her fingers, and amidst the swirling smoke, her cold eyes pierced the darkness, gazing at him with unwavering eyes.
"Miss Chu?"
After a slight pause, Lu Zhufeng quickly stepped forward.
Chu Liyue was wrapped in a black nightgown, and her exquisite face, illuminated by the dim light, exuded nobility and mystery.
The ashtray at my feet was overflowing with cigarette butts, a shocking sight. I wonder how long I've been sitting there.
The night breeze ruffled her long hair, and she tilted her head slightly, looking up at Lu Zhufeng, her voice cool as she asked:
Where to?
Lu Zhufeng's eyes flickered slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Go away for a while."
The air was still for a few seconds.
Chu Liyue asked again, "Where to?"
After a moment of silence, a fierce killing intent flashed in Lu Zhufeng's eyes, and his voice was so cold it could shatter ice.
"kill."
Chu Liyue held a cigarette between her fingers, her voice icy: "If he couldn't kill someone, do you think you can?"
Lu Zhufeng's gaze faltered for a moment, then he lowered his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice, "Protecting oneself is not a problem."
Chu Liyue coldly uttered a single word: "Sit."
With a slight pursing of his lips, Lu Zhufeng put down the box in his hand and sat down next to Chu Liyue.
He knew Chu Liyue was waiting for his explanation, so he didn't waste any words and went straight to the point:
"According to the information I've gathered, that old woman is severely injured; she'll be half dead if not dead."
"Given her injuries, she is not capable of traveling long distances and leaving China in a short period of time."
“My men have also discovered that she is likely hiding south of the capital.”
Because both Chu Liyue and Xiao Wujie's power is concentrated in the northern region centered around the capital.
The south, especially south of Suzhou, is a region beyond the reach of their influence.
Chu Liyue took a drag of her cigarette, exhaling smoke rings, her cold eyes deep and unfathomable.
"The people below can go; you stay."
Lu Zhufeng's face was cold and indifferent as he looked up at the icy crescent moon in the sky.
A hint of helplessness crept into his deep voice: "What use is it for me to stay?"
“I can’t wake him up, and I don’t understand those scientific research methods.”
The cold moon was reflected in his eyes, revealing a chilling aura.
“But I’m not willing to accept it. I can’t bear to just watch him lying there and do nothing.”
"Some people have to pay the price. His downfall does not mean that everyone around him has fallen, nor does it mean that this matter is over."
Chu Liyue's exquisite face was partially obscured by the swirling smoke, her voice low and cold:
"If he wakes up, he will surely want to see you."
"If something happens to you, he can't handle it."
Lu Zhufeng's gaze flickered slightly, and he gritted his teeth, saying:
"You know my capabilities, and I'm not a hot-blooded fool who acts impulsively. I won't act rashly."
“I may not be able to kill her, but I can remove all her claws and teeth. At least I can help him scout the way.”
He looked at Chu Liyue and said in a deep voice, "I will come back every now and then."
"If he wakes up, let me know, and I'll come back immediately, no matter where I am."
