It's quite a slap in the face.
Just a second ago, he had made a promise, but now Xiaochen's words had pushed him back to square one.
The man chuckled coldly, while Wen Mian behind him found it strange.
"Why are you laughing? I haven't finished what I was saying just now."
"It's nothing."
Pei Zhiyao put away his phone and suddenly walked towards the door, pulling on his coat.
Wen Mian watched his brisk pace in a daze.
Approaching the door, the man's voice lowered as he instructed:
"Rest well at home, I need to step out for a bit. Li Xiaosheng has been fished out."

'Thud'
"We can talk this out, why do you have to be so tense?"
Inside the apartment building.
Liang Yu was once again pinned against the wall by Zhang Huasheng.
A wave of brute force struck her, causing Liang Yu to gasp in pain.
She instinctively tried to push him away.
But she realized that Zhang Huasheng was much stronger, and she was no match for him.
