Qin Ran carried Su Ninglu away, and Leng Yichen squatted down in front of Shu Qiqi, "The truth about the matter has been ascertained, and I will give you an explanation for this."
He patted Shu Qiqi's shoulder and turned to leave.
When the clock struck nine in the evening, there was still no sign of Leng Yichen's return. She wondered how he planned to handle the situation.
Shu Qiqi dared not think too deeply. She was just about to close her eyes to sleep when the bedroom door was thrust open.
A loud thud startled her wakefulness away.
Looking up, she saw Leng Yichen with a face full of icy air.
"You're back?"
Shu Qiqi propped herself up to sit, instinctively asking.
The bedroom door was slammed shut again, the man's movements forceful as if suppressing a surge of rage.
He strode over to Shu Qiqi's bed, silent as he approached.
His dark eyes bore down on her, as though seeking to pull her into their depths.
