"Let... go..." Shen Ruo was at her last gasp but still struggling. If she died at his hands today, it would be too great a loss.
As if sensing her frailty, Gu Kai violently threw her aside, stood up with irritation, and glared at her with a sneer, "Shen Ruo, I've said it before, if you want the Shen Family to live well, don't try to test my patience. This is the last time, if you dare resist me again, I'll make Shen Yang pay!"
After speaking, he leisurely dressed himself and left without looking back.
Shen Ruo lay on the bed, trembling with anger. He only knew how to threaten her, always only threatening her...
Suddenly, the ringtone of her cell phone sounded. Shen Ruo found her bag, took out her cell phone, and saw the name 'Xiaoyang' displayed on the screen; her hand shook slightly at the sight.
She flipped open the cell phone and put it to her ear; she heard Shen Yang's mellow and pleasant voice, "Xiaoruo, I'm coming back to the country."
Shen Ruo froze for a moment, "Coming back? How come so soon, isn't it still half a year until you complete your studies?"
"I've finished early. Xiaoruo, my flight is tomorrow, I'll arrive the day after, you come to the airport to pick me up," Shen Yang's words were as domineering as ever, with no room for discussion.
To Shen Ruo's ears, however, his words were comforting. No matter what Shen Yang did, she would always accommodate him.
"What time the day after tomorrow?" She needed to see if she could find an opportunity to go pick him up.
"Noon at 12 o'clock."
That was good; she could take a day off work.
"Do Mom and Dad know?"
"No, I decided to come back on my own. Xiaoruo..." Are you really, have you really got a boyfriend?
Shen Yang hesitated, pausing for quite a while, but he didn't ask.
"What?" Shen Ruo on this end was waiting for him to continue.
"Nothing, we'll talk about it when the time comes. Oh, and Xiaoruo, don't tell Mom and Dad about my return yet, I want to surprise them."
"Okay."
After chatting for a while, the siblings hung up the phone. From this call, Shen Ruo vaguely felt that Shen Yang was different.
Although his words were still so cool, she felt he had something on his mind, quite different.
Suddenly, she thought of what Gu Kai had just said. He mentioned Shen Yang—could it be that he knew Shen Yang was coming back?
Impossible, he only knew that she cared about Shen Yang, so he used him to threaten her.
