Ye Shengge was forced into his embrace, and the unfamiliar masculine smell invaded her senses, making her hairs stand on end.
She was about to struggle, but Xiao Ruilang whispered to her, âOnly the real Summer Wood is certain that Mu Xiaoya is an impostor, and only the real Summer Wood canât stand her gaining anything from Summer Wood.â
Ye Shenggeâs mind went blank. â...You did it on purpose.â
He had probably never trusted Mu Xiaoya from the start. He had deliberately pampered her and even indulged her to force the real Summer Wood to show.
Ye Shengge felt like she had fallen into an icy cave.
He said jokingly, âWerenât you unhappy that Mu Xiaoya drew my attention? You couldnât take it more and decided to fight back. Am I right?â
âIf it werenât for you, Mu Xiaoya wouldnât have been a threat at all,â Ye Shengge said. âWere you suspecting me from the start?â
âSmart girl.â Xiao Ruilangâs voice became gentler. âAre you still going to deny your identity?â
âLet me go,â Ye Shengge said through gritted teeth.
The man chuckled and let her go, but he still put his hand on her shoulder and said, âAnswer me.â
Even if he had already made up his mind, he still wanted her to admit it.
Ye Shengge couldnât have been more aggrieved, but now, she could only nod and say, âOkay. So what if Iâm Summer Wood? If you like Summer Woodâs work, shouldnât you respect me more?â
âI respect you a lot, which is why I invited you to my house.â The man grabbed her wrist and comforted her. âDonât be scared. I donât eat humans.â
Is this an invitation? Itâs a kidnapping!
Ye Shengge tried to shake her hand off, but she couldnât.
Xiao Ruilang shot her a glance.
Ye Shengge was even more aggrieved. She kept shaking, but she couldnât get rid of his hand, but it exhausted his patience.
He suddenly pushed her to the car beside him and pressed his upper body down on her. He smiled gently and coldly, âIâll get angry if you donât behave yourself.â
âAnd then? Are you going to kill me or my bodyguard?â Ye Shengge glared at him.
âAre you challenging me?â Xiao Ruilang was more interested. âI donât think I would dare so.â
âI know you dare do so.â Ye Shengge said sarcastically. âDo it then!â
However, she wasnât calm at all.
She was betting that Xiao Ruilang wouldnât let her hate or be afraid of him, so he wouldnât use such extreme methods for now.
Sure enough, the man smiled and said, âI wonât kill you or your bodyguard, but I can kiss you. Since you want to stall for time, you have to pay a price.â
The anger on Ye Shenggeâs face immediately vanished, leaving only pure fear. She wanted to struggle, but she was completely restricted by that man.
She tried to turn her head away as she was terrified.
Xiao Ruilang grabbed her chin with one hand and looked down. Just as he was about to touch her lips, he heard a deep and furious voice.
âLet her go.â
