Chapter 365: The Angry Warlord of the Republic of China vs. the Educated and Well-mannered Overseas Daughter 21
Si Jinnian felt that he had figured out her thoughts. It was nothing more than that after being stimulated by Fan Lingyu, she could no longer hide her surging feelings for him and was planning to make the fake relationship real with him.
He should have hated her, but looking at the woman in front of him with eyes full of spring water and blushing because of nervousness and anger, Si Jinnian lowered his eyes and pursed his thin lips even tighter.
Then give her a trial opportunity to become a regular employee.
Quan Jiu had no idea that men's minds were full of twists and turns, even more complicated than her. She looked at the housekeeper who was about to step forward, her whole body tensed like a bow, and pushed Si Jinnian's chest:
"Third Master..."
"Um."
Si Jinnian responded casually, and seeing the housekeeper approaching, he said, "You all go down."
"yes."
The butler and the servants disappeared without a trace. For a moment, only Quan Jiu and Si Jinnian were left in the restaurant.
"Have you touched me enough, Third Master? If you have, let me go." Quan Jiu turned his face away.
This man had a strong sense of revenge. He must have been secretly angry because she used him as a tool to gain popularity with Fan Lingyu.
Little did he know that Si Jinnian simply didn't want to let go.
She looks good in stockings, especially black.
Si Jinnian let go of his hand, his tone a little fierce and impatient.
"You can't seduce a man casually. If you do this again next time, I will do you in front of everyone in the room."
He is not a person who indulges in lust, but he is not conservative either. Most people who sit in his position already have three wives and four concubines. What's even more outrageous is that some have already taken in eighteen concubines. A man like him who has not tasted a woman at the age of 27 is also an anomaly among ordinary people.
In troubled times, it is not easy to survive. Today, you may be a loving father and filial son, and a happy family. But tomorrow when you open your eyes, you may be left alone and displaced. Under extremely high pressure, chastity becomes a secondary thing.
He had seen too many women who, in order to survive, chose to follow a man they had only met once, even if the man was a generation older than her.
After hearing what he said, Quan Jiu swallowed his saliva and said, "...This is not good."
Si Jinnian's dark eyes were bottomless:
"So you'd better keep quiet."
Don't give him the chance.
…
Before he could get the chance, Si Jinnian started to get busy again these days.
When the news of Fan Sheng's arrival in Jincheng spread, the other commanders became anxious.
Originally, everyone's strength was equal, but the sudden marriage between the Si and Fan families made others feel a sense of crisis. So the people living in Jincheng were surprised to find that there were suddenly many black military vehicles in the city.
Si Jinnian was busy with social engagements every day and went out early and came back late. Quan Jiu stayed at home in the western-style building every day, staring at Fan Lingyu. Fortunately, after being stimulated that day, the young lady suddenly became much more obedient.
One night, there was a violent storm with thunder and lightning. The chirping sparrows outside the window fell silent, and the heavy rain washed over the mottled grey exterior walls of the Commander's Mansion. The century-old banyan tree at the door let out its last roar in a flash of white light before collapsing unwillingly.
Lightning was like a thin snake moving around, still rumbling and crackling. In the heavy rain, two beams of dazzling car lights split the long night sky, and the sound of violent brakes rang out at the door of the commander's mansion.
Through the rain curtain, Quan Jiu recognized that it was Si Jinnian's car.
Several figures hurriedly got out of the car, seemingly carrying someone. Several doctors in white coats rushed out of the house and walked into the house quickly.
"Boom—"
A flash of thunder passed by, and the front yard suddenly became as bright as day.
Quan Jiu finally saw the unconscious face clearly.
It’s Si Jinnian.
…
She put on her coat and came to the door of Si Jinnian's bedroom, but unexpectedly, before she got close, she was stopped by rows of guards at the door.
Quan Jiu looked at the unfamiliar faces in front of him, frowning slightly:
"I want to go in."
The guard remained unmoved: "No one can enter without the Third Master's order."
Quan Jiu pursed his lips tightly, his tone a little low: "I am your Third Master's fiancée."
The guard's tone did not change at all, and he said coldly:
"Miss Liu, I'm sorry."
Quan Jiu wanted to say something, but he saw Fan Lingyu and Fan Sheng coming over. The guards became much more respectful when they saw the two of them.
"Commander Fan."
Fan Sheng's cold eyes swept over Quan Jiu:
"Well done. There's a spy around the Third Master. No one else who's not cleared of suspicion can be allowed in."
"clear."
Fan Lingyu finally regained his position and looked at Quan Jiu with pride:
"Dad, let's go in."
Upon hearing this, the guard consciously made way for him, which was completely different from his attitude towards Quan Jiu just now.
Fan Lingyu smiled like a winner, took Fan Sheng's arm and walked into the house. When passing by Quan Jiu, he did not forget to speak in her ear with a proud tone:
"My confidence comes from the Fan family. Unlike you, a pitiful creature who depends on men, without the Third Master, you are nothing."
Fan Lingyu had been feeling aggrieved for two days, but finally he was able to feel proud.
She is the eldest daughter of the Fan family. Even if she doesn't marry Si Jinnian, she can still live a life of wealth and glory. But a woman like Liu Jiaojiao who uses her beauty to seduce men is nothing without a man.
Fan Sheng heard the conversation between the two, his expression remained unchanged, but the corners of his eyes deepened a little. When he passed by the guard, he said meaningfully.
"Watch closely."
There was only Quan Jiu outside the door, and it was obvious who he was targeting.
The father and daughter entered the house unhindered, and the guard immediately looked at Quan Jiu with vigilance:
"Miss Liu, please go back."
Quan Jiu looked at the closed door in front of him and turned away.
001: "When did you become so good-tempered?"
Quan Jiu: "Let's first confirm whether Si Jinnian is dead or not."
It’s not that she can’t defeat these guards, but even if they are gone, there will be others, so there is no need to waste energy.
Three o'clock in the morning.
Fan Sheng looked at Si Jinnian lying on the bed with his eyes closed, patted Fan Lingyu's shoulder, and whispered:
"Since the Third Master retired to the second line, he has rarely suffered such serious injuries. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Men are like that. They like gentle and considerate women. Take advantage of his injury and take good care of him. Let him see your sincerity."
As a man himself, Fan Sheng understands men's bad natures too well.
Fan Lingyu nodded shyly: "Don't worry, Dad, I understand."
As soon as Fan Sheng left, Fan Lingyu stared at the still handsome and cold man lying on the hospital bed, and silently returned to her room to change into a simple and elegant cheongsam.
She actually prefers Western dresses to cheongsams, but when she thought of the scene where Quan Jiu was pressed against the wall by Si Jinnian that day, her heart started pounding faster.
Since the Third Master likes it, she will wear it.
When Si Jinnian woke up, it was already late at night. The lights were off in the room, and it was gloomy inside. He touched the thick bandage on his abdomen and was about to sit up when he caught a glimpse of a figure sitting on the sofa...
