Shangguan Zifei's malicious eyes fell on a trembling person. The room was filled with an almost suffocating atmosphere, and the trembling person stared at the floor in fear, not daring to look directly at Shangguan Zifei.
"I just wanted you to follow someone, but you actually lost him. Moreover, you actually have the face to come back and see me!”Shangguan Zifei's entire body was emitting a cold aura.
" Young Master…I didn't mean to lose him. It's just that Second Young Master…" The Second Young Master's swift steps didn't look like a person who couldn't be cured. He really couldn't say anything.
"You can't even look after a dying person. What's the use of me raising a trash like you?”
"I won't dare to do it again. Please give me another chance, young master. I will definitely take good care of the second young master.”
"You've already lost him. Where are you going to find him?”Shangguan Zifei roared.
Damn it, if he wasn't afraid that the woman would leak his information, why would he send people to keep an eye on Zi Tuo's whereabouts? Anyway, a dying person couldn't threaten his career at all.
Ever since that woman had escaped from his grasp a few years ago, he had been sending people to look for her whereabouts, but they had all fallen into the sea. If the two of them had not met by chance that day, he would not have known that she was actually nearby.
This woman could destroy the family fortune that was almost within his reach overnight. Her existence was his only weakness at the moment. He definitely could not let her get close to Zi Tuo.
He had finally taken back everything that belonged to him from Zi Tuo. He couldn't take the risk. He had to find that woman's whereabouts.
He would definitely eliminate anyone, anything, or anything that would hinder him.
"I will try my best to find out.”he said, trembling.
"Also, I asked you to investigate the whereabouts of that woman. What was the result?”
Shangguan Zifei's words were like a bomb that made his body, which had stopped trembling, tremble again." I... still don't have... her whereabouts."”
"Idiot, hurry up and investigate. Unless you find out where she is, you'd better not come to see me. Otherwise, I'll definitely make you wish you were dead.”
Rebel, rebel!
Nothing was to his liking.
Every day that he did not find her, he would not be at peace.
"I'll check it out immediately." He didn't dare to delay and immediately disappeared from Shangguan Zifei's sight.
Shangguan Zifei angrily broke the pencil in his hand.
The Shangguan Group belonged to him, and everything belonged to him. He would never allow anyone to threaten him. Those who stood in his way would die without a doubt!
Just like Lu Xiangyi a few years ago, when she discovered his plan, he had already made up his mind to eliminate this future trouble. Regardless of whether this woman was his intimate lover or not, as long as she wanted to hinder him, he would definitely get rid of her quickly!
The Shangguan Corporation was already in his hands. He believed that he would be able to monopolize the power soon. At that time, he would let the whole world know of his existence.
However, the most important thing now was to get Hua Menglan, this difficult woman. If it weren't for Hua Menglan's underworld family background and her beauty, he wouldn't have wasted his time pursuing her. As long as he curled his finger, he could have any woman he wanted.
However, as long as he married Hua Menglan, he would be able to walk between the underworld and the underworld. Of course, he would not let go of such a woman who was beneficial to his career development.
He believed that two months would be enough for Hua Menglan to fall into his arms…
Thinking of this, Shangguan Zifei could not help but laugh out loud.
An unknown conspiracy was brewing in his heart.
After Hua Menglan finished her work, she stood in front of her house and was about to take out the key to the door when suddenly, the door was opened from the inside, revealing a weak smile.
" You're back..." Shangguan Zituo said weakly.
Hua Menglan glared at him coldly.
If he hadn't come to open the door, she would have almost forgotten about his existence. Shangguan Zituo had been staying in her house for a week. During this time, he didn't leave the house. He would only open the door to welcome her when she came back.
He was indeed a young master who was idle. He did not have to do anything. All he had to do was think about how to pretend to be a two-faced person.
"I'm so hungry!" Shangguan Zituo looked at her innocently.
"There are vegetables in the fridge." Could it be that he wanted her to serve him, this young master?
"I don't know how to cook." This woman was so cruel that she made him eat noodles for a whole week. She didn't even think about how a man like him could withstand such torture.
"Then don't eat it."
Wu! This woman had a heart of stone." I don't want to eat noodles anymore. I want to eat, eat.”
Hua Menglan rolled her eyes at him." I'm not your servant. If you want to eat, you can cook it yourself. Besides, I didn't restrict your movements. You can go out and look for food at any time.”She had been tired for the whole day and was too lazy to talk, but this Shangguan Zituo just loved to find trouble with her.
However, he didn't seem to realize that he had already started to reveal his flaws. Ever since she entered the door, she didn't hear him cough again. However, when she went out this morning, she clearly heard him coughing very badly. Why was he so hungry that he forgot to put on an act?
"As long as I go out, something will definitely happen.”Shangguan Zituo reiterated.
Hua Menglan threw down her bag and said to him,""How long do you plan to pretend? What good would it do you to hide your identity? Besides, I've already seen through you, but you still have the courage to keep pretending in front of me. I've never seen a man as shameless as you!”
"I didn't say that I won't admit it. It's just that the time hasn't come yet.”Shangguan Zituo's weak tone had changed. He stared at her with bright eyes.
"Then the time has come. Are you going to admit it?”
"That's right."
"Eh?" She didn't hear wrongly, did she? She was just following his words and asking casually. She thought that he would refuse to admit it like before. But this time, she was obviously wrong. He actually had the intention to lay his cards on the table.
"As you said, I was pretending to be weak.”
Hua Menglan glared at him." What's wrong with you? How could you admit it so easily?"”Did the sun rise from the west?
Shangguan Zituo smiled and said," Because I realized that you are simply watching me as a joke. Since you have already seen through my disguise, there is no point in me continuing to pretend."”
" Are you going to tell me the reason?"
"No, it's not the right time yet.”
"Is it related to Shangguan Zifei?”
Shangguan Zituo was silent for a long time before he said,""You're really smart. I can't seem to hide anything from your eyes.”His eyes flashed with admiration.
"Did I really guess correctly?"
"I can't explain the reason in a short time. I only hope that you can promise me not to have any contact with him again. He is really a very dangerous person.”
"It's too late. I've already agreed to his invitation to have dinner with him tomorrow.”
"You…since you've already promised him, you must be careful.”Alas, she simply did not listen to his advice. There was no point in saying anything more.
Hua Menglan nodded." What do you want to eat?”
"Are you cooking?" Shangguan Zituo said expectantly.
"You've admitted your identity, haven't you?”
" I want to eat sweet and sour fish, prawns, duck…" Shangguan Zituo couldn't wait to order, as if he was afraid that Hua Menglan would go back on her words.
Hua Menglan was also affected by his joy when she saw him dancing around excitedly like a child. She revealed a beautiful smile…
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Shangguan Zituo sat on the sofa.
"It's simply a delicacy." There was still the lingering fragrance of the food in his mouth. It was really memorable.
"Is it that exaggerated?"
Hua Menglan walked to the sofa opposite Shangguan Zituo and sat down.
"I'm not exaggerating, I'm just praising your cooking. I've been holding it in for a week, and today I finally got to taste this delicious food.”He gave a thumbs up and praised.
Hua Menglan's face turned red." This is nothing. I have a godson named Canjie. He's only ten years old this year, but his cooking skills are superb. I'm much worse than him."”
"Is it the child I saw at the beauty studio?”
"That's him. Don't look at him just because he's a child. He's a genius. At a young age, his father has already started to let him come into contact with the concept of business management.”
Shangguan Zituo was surprised." He's so young. Does he understand?"”
"Of course I do!" she replied affirmatively.
"I must meet this genius child someday.”
"Alright! I'll introduce you to each other another day.”
"Really?"
"Do you think I'm full of lies like you?”
"I had no choice." Shangguan Zituo said innocently.
"What's there to be forced to lie about?”Hua Menglan said sarcastically.
"You ignored me no matter who taught you." He complained to her aggrievedly.
"What does it have to do with me?" She was really wronged.
If it weren't for his active approach, the two of them wouldn't have interacted at all.
"Of course it matters. If you liked me, I wouldn't have to spend so much effort to get close to you. All of this is for you.”He shamelessly pushed all the blame onto Hua Menglan.
Hua Menglan glared at him." I don't owe men anything.”
"What a stubborn woman!"
"I'm not interested in a man like you.”
"What's wrong with me? Is it wrong to like you?”
"Your words are too insincere. I don't believe you.”
Shangguan Zituo suddenly felt his whole body go limp." I've already laid out my true feelings in front of you, and you still dare to doubt me…I don't want to live anymore…" He said with tears and snot running down his face, sounding very aggrieved.
"Can you not be like this?" Hua Menglan rubbed her forehead. She began to regret taking him in. This guy was simply the embodiment of the devil.
"I didn't."
"Please be more like a man. I'm about to be defeated by you.”She really didn't understand what kind of show he was putting on.
" I can act like a man…" Shangguan Zituo's eyes suddenly lit up. He quickly sat beside Hua Menglan and put his hands on her shoulders.
"What are you doing?" Hua Menglan stared at him warily.
"I'll let you understand what a man is!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he lowered his head and prepared to kiss her red lips.
Seeing this, Hua Menglan immediately stretched out her hands to block Shangguan Zituo's chest. Her eyes were filled with anger." You pervert, don't even think about touching me."”
Shangguan Zituo was completely unmoved as he restrained her hands and said to her in a low and sexy voice,""Do you know when you look sexiest?”
Damn it!
He actually did this again.
" When I kissed you..." Shangguan Zituo's eyes were filled with love as he slowly approached her until he kissed her lips.
He completely ignored her struggle. Her lips were like honey, making it impossible for him to leave easily. He could not stop kissing her again and again…
Following Shangguan Zituo's gentle and bold attack, Hua Menglan's hands unconsciously wrapped around Guan Zituo's neck, and the two of them kissed each other…
As time passed, the air was still filled with an ambiguous atmosphere. Hua Menglan panted slightly and lowered her head shyly. A wave of frustration welled up in her heart.
She didn't dare to look up, afraid that she would meet his mocking eyes.
Damn it, she actually kissed him back and kissed him again and again, letting Shangguan Zituo take advantage of her.
But why didn't she feel disgusted?
Did she look like a woman who said she didn't like him?
She should have given him a slap, kicked him out of the house, and never saw this scoundrel who only knew how to take advantage of women again.
However, not only did she not do that, she did not dare to look him in the eye. Had she become a shameless woman?
No, she was not that kind of woman. She refused to accept herself as such. She should not have any personal feelings at this time, and she should not have placed her feelings on a man she did not know at all!
He was like a riddle, full of riddles, and she did not want to solve this riddle at all, because the more she solved, the deeper she would fall.
"What are you so engrossed in?”His deep and charming voice entered her ears.
Her hesitation made him overjoyed. If he wasn't afraid of scaring her away, he really wanted to carry her into the room and play the most primitive symphony with her.
However, he endured it because he didn't want his budding love to be ruined by his impulses. He also wanted to see her give her all.
"I'm fine." Hua Menglan instinctively took a step back and turned her head to the other side. She avoided Shangguan Zituo's questioning gaze, afraid that he would see the fear in her heart.
He was so outstanding, whether it was on the outside or inside. At least, the Shangguan Zituo she saw was a man who could make women's hearts flutter.
However, she was very uneasy. He was too mysterious and she did not have the courage to accept his feelings. Moreover, how serious was his half-joking attitude? If she accepted his feelings, would she end up regretting and feeling heartache?
Before the situation was clear, she really could not give her heart.
"Nothing? Do you think I'll believe you?" When she took a step back, he took a step forward." It's not shameful to be honest about your feelings.”From her uneasy gaze, he could tell what she was thinking. She wanted to retreat and escape from this relationship.
She was a calm and shrewd woman, but when it came to relationships, he could see that she was confused and uneasy. Perhaps it was his identity and ambiguous attitude that made her hesitate and unable to accept this relationship honestly.
Hua Menglan avoided his gaze." I don't have any feelings for you. Kissing is just a normal thing. You don't have to take it too seriously.”
"You, you think kissing is a very normal thing?”Shangguan Zituo's eyes widened. He was angry that she despised his feelings for her.
"We're both adults. It's consensual between men and women. Moreover, it's just kissing. It's not a big deal at all.”She said it in a relaxed manner, but her heart was thumping non-stop.
"So you're so shallow!" Shangguan Zituo was so angry that he couldn't speak. Her retreat and escape almost drove him crazy.
He, Shangguan Zituo, had never loved a woman so deeply. Ever since he fell in love with her at first sight, his whole heart was on her. He racked his brains and tried his best to get close to her, but in return, she ran away and retreated. What was this!
He couldn't stand her cowardice!
"Whatever you say." She didn't want to explain anymore.
Shangguan Zituo glared at her angrily while Hua Menglan lowered her head and dared not face him." Look at me. I want you to say it to me."”It was as if the pleasant atmosphere just now had never existed.
" I..." She raised her head and wanted to deny it, but she was suddenly pulled into the arms of the angry Shangguan Zituo, and her lips were sucked into his mouth again.
This time, Shangguan Zituo didn't give Hua Menglan a chance to struggle. He swallowed her red lips with his strong aura.
The burning desire burned away Hua Menglan and Shangguan Zituo's rationality…
