Gu Danyu withdrew her gaze, her peripheral vision suddenly catching a glimpse of the calligraphy and painting from the auction.
With Xie Hongkang's threat from that morning flashing through her mind, she furrowed her brows, "Mr. Lu, does Lu's have a partnership with Xie Hai?"
Hearing him mention another man's name, Lu Yancheng's eyes flickered with displeasure as he asked indifferently, "Why do you ask?"
Gu Danyu had just begun to explain this morning's incident when a shadow suddenly fell across her view.
The man stood with one hand in his pocket, leaning down slightly, the other hand gently cupping her face, his expression serious, "You are my fiancee, Gu Danyu, and there's no one you can't afford to offend."
The domineering and forceful pledge hammered at her ears.
Gu Danyu's long curly eyelashes trembled, and her fair earlobes turned a quiet shade of red.
Even without him, she could tread fearlessly in this place.
Only…
Her heartbeat inexplicably accelerated.
