After Ni Sitian got into the car, she looked at Li Rui and saw him giving her a sinister smile.
The smile looked sinister and chilling, so she immediately looked away and turned to Xu Tingchuan.
Xu Tingchuan gave her a reassuring smile and gently patted her clenched fist.
Ni Sitian watched him start the car with worry. As the car passed Li Rui, she couldn't help but glance at him again, only to see him make a throat-slitting gesture at her.
She was startled and instinctively reached out to grab Xu Tingchuan's arm.
"Don't be afraid, he's just trying to scare us. If we don't scare him, he won't succeed." Xu Tingchuan drove steadily, glancing at the rearview mirror as he spoke. He saw that Li Rui seemed to be looking in his rearview mirror as well, waiting to meet his gaze.
He frowned and pressed harder on the accelerator.
"What exactly does he want to do?" Ni Sitian frowned with worry.
Xu Tingchuan found it difficult to answer this question. Li Rui was a born devil; he had even killed his twin brother. If he wanted revenge, he would definitely not just resort to these tricks.
Today's bowl of bamboo shoot soup is probably Li Rui's way of conveying that he now has the ability to tamper with his food, and the bamboo shoots are just a warning.
What exactly is it that makes him so fearless? No matter how much Feng Nianyao of the Golden Tiger Gate relies on him, he can't let him do this. Even Feng Nianyao himself might not dare to offend the Xu family.
"Tingchuan?" Ni Sitian called out even more worriedly when he didn't answer.
"Don't worry, it's alright." Xu Tingchuan freed one hand and squeezed her hand.
Ni Sitian's heart was pounding. She had a bad feeling about it and tried to calm herself down so as not to interfere with Xu Tingchuan's driving.
At that moment, she saw Li Rui's black Mercedes following behind them in the rearview mirror, and she was startled.
"Ignore him. What he's happiest to see right now is our scared faces," Xu Tingchuan reminded Ni Sitian.
Ni Sitian pursed her lips, still very scared inside, but tried her best to remain calm. She couldn't let Xu Tingchuan down in this matter.
“We’re going to Hainan in a week. I saw the swimsuit you bought,” Xu Tingchuan said, trying to divert Ni Sitian’s attention by changing the subject. He glanced at her and said, “You’re not allowed to wear that out. You’re only allowed to wear it for me to see.”
When Ni Sitian heard him mention the swimsuit, her cheeks flushed slightly. Jia Yue had somehow slipped that strappy bikini into her shopping bag, and she had hidden it afterward. Who knew that Xu Tingchuan would actually see it!
"That's not what I bought." She felt it necessary to defend her innocence. That swimsuit was so cheap, it looked like it was made of just a few ropes and three small pieces of fabric. It was practically like she wasn't wearing anything at all. How could she possibly wear it out?
"Anyway, you can only wear it for me to see," Xu Tingchuan emphasized again.
"I'm not going to wear it!" Ni Sitian snorted. Who would want to wear it for him?
“Yes, it’s definitely better not to wear it.” Xu Tingchuan glanced at her and said meaningfully with a double meaning.
Ni Sitian's cheeks flushed red, and she said shyly, "You rascal."
She felt that ever since they consummated their marriage, he had become increasingly adept at telling dirty jokes, almost effortlessly, and teasing her had become his source of amusement.
