Although he had called her his wife, there wasn’t a single ounce of warmth in his attitude at all. On the contrary, he emanated an indescribable sense of viciousness.

  Li Jinnan’s furrowed his brows. Judging from Shen Luo’an’s demeanor, he could tell that the guy wasn’t up to any good.

  As for Ye Youyou, resistance was written all over her face. With the expression of a desperate plea, she looked at Li Jinnan and beseeched, “GM Li, help me. I beg you.”


  “I’m warning you to stay out of this. Since you have no relation with her whatsoever, you’d better turn around and walk away.” Shen Luo’an stalked over to where Ye Youyou was standing. “You shouldn’t be worrying about matters between my wife and me.”


  Ye Youyou took a step back and said, “Shen Luo’an, you didn’t use to be this way in the past. If you’re trying to get back at me, you’ve succeeded. What else do you want to do? I beg you, please let me off, will you?”


  Although this statement was directed toward Shen Luo’an, it was mostly intended for Li Jinnan’s ears.

  Shen Luo’an’s face darkened even further. He strode up and held Ye Youyou’s hand forcefully. Before he could jerk her over, he felt a sharp pain shoot through his arm. A hand held him back. Li Jinnan violently twisted his hand. Caught unprepared, Shen Luo’an howled in pain.

  “Go!” Li Jinnan ordered. When Ye Youyou heard him, she didn’t dare remain for a moment longer. She placed Li Jinnan’s laptop down on a clean surface beside the flower vase and ran down the stairs as quickly as the wind.

  Shen Luo’an hand remained twisted in Li Jinnan’s grip. The pain made his face go white. He creased his brow. With a sardonic laugh he said, “Li Jinnan, since you aren’t her patron, aren’t you overstepping your boundaries by getting involved in matters between a husband and a wife?”


  Li Jinnan’s expression turned thunderous as he growled, “Miss Ye is my employee. I am responsible for her safety when she is within company grounds.”


  Only after he turned and ascertained that Ye Youyou had run far did Li Jinnan release Shen Luo’an. He turned to pick up his laptop that was beside the flower vase. Although he had just engaged in a scuffle with Shen Luo’an, he showed no sign of physical fatigue at all. His face wasn’t flushed, and his breathing remained steady.

  Meanwhile, Shen Luo’an looked deplorable. He couldn’t help but notice that Li Jinnan was fine. It would be no wonder if Ye Youyou fell for him. But, that could never happen! Even if insisted that there was nothing between them at present, things could always change in the future!

  At the thought that Ye Youyou could possible cuckold him any time she wished to, Shen Luo’an felt his heart fill with tension. It was an extremely uncomfortable feeling. As he watched Li Jinnan about to leave, he raised his leg and gave Li Jinnan’s back a hard kick.

  Li Jinnan hadn’t expected Shen Luo’an sudden attack. Caught unaware, he was sent tumbling forward.

  His military instincts kicked in. He subconsciously assumed a defense posture.

  At 6 feet, 2 inches, tall, Li Jinnan’s tumble down the flight of stairs was no child’s play. As he hit the floor, he clenched his jaw in agony. His face and body were stinging with pain.

  He looked up, and saw Shen Luo’an walking down with the laptop in his hand. As Shen Luo’an approached him, he smashed the laptop on Li Jinnan viciously and declared, “You b*stard! You deserve this!”


  In the time it took Shen Luo’an to walk over, Li Jinnan recovered his strength. He got up in one motion and pinned Shen Luo’an to the ground.

  Shen Luo’an had never expected the guy to be that agile and was caught by surprise. Laughter escaped him as he said, “I really underestimated you.”
