Shen Ruo felt a chill run through her body as she detected the warning in his words.
How could she forget Gu Kai's past threats and tactics—was he implying that if she didn't comply, he would cause trouble for Xiaoyang?
The rebellious part of her heart made her reject him outright, "I'm going back home to stay today."
Gu Kai's gaze immediately turned cold, "Be good, listen to me, and I'll accompany you back next time."
"I don't..." Shen Ruo's voice halted abruptly as his eyes grew terrifyingly intense.
Her mind cleared somewhat—she couldn't provoke him, for she didn't know what he might do.
"Fine." With no other choice, Shen Ruo nodded slightly.
Gu Kai gave a satisfied smile, walked over, wrapped his arm around her waist, and possessively kissed her forehead. Then, still smiling, he turned and elegantly left.
Shen Yang clenched his fists and said coldly, "Xiaoruo, is this your happiness?"
Shen Ruo was startled, unsure of what to say.
