So, He Jingyao looked deeply into her eyes and said, "Come here."
His voice was low and alluring.
Su Zixi's teeth chattered as she stiffly took a step forward.
"Come here, I'm not going to eat you!" He Jingyao frowned slightly. He rarely interacted with women, were they all this hesitant?
Su Zixi took a deep breath, resigned to her fate. With so many bodyguards around, she had no chance of escaping anyway.
With that thought, she took one step at a time towards He Jingyao.
"A little closer." He Jingyao's voice turned hoarse.
She had no choice but to take two more steps forward. She was now close enough to touch his face with an outstretched hand.
He Jingyao took a deep breath in.
There was no nauseating smell, instead, there was a refreshing fragrance, faint and enticing, making his heart itch.
Su Zixi's heart skipped a beat when she saw the man's intense gaze.
"Mr. He, last night I didn't do it on purpose, I'm sorry." She decisively chose to apologize first.
But to her surprise, the man's expression suddenly changed. He abruptly stood up from the sofa!
Su Zixi then realized how tall the man was; her 165 cm height barely reached his shoulder.
Seeing him stand up, Su Zixi thought he was going to hit her and was so scared she nearly fell to the ground!
Instead, the man cupped her face in his hands!
"Why is there a handprint on your face? Who hit you?" He Jingyao asked with a displeased knit of his brows.
Su Zixi was startled. So he stood up suddenly because he saw the handprint on her face?
He Jingyao turned his gaze to Su Guo'an and Lin Shuyue: "Was it them?"
Seeing He Jingyao targeting him, Su Guo'an nervously said, "Mr. He, my daughter was being unruly, I was just... just disciplining her a bit."
"Who allowed you to touch my woman?" He Jingyao said coldly.
What! His woman?
Su Zixi was stunned, and so was Su Guo'an!
"Mr. He, last night... last night my daughter..."
"Last night she was with me," He Jingyao said with a smirk, "Is there a problem with that?"
Su Guo'an drew a sharp breath!
Lin Shuyue screamed in disbelief, "That's impossible!"
Su Guo'an was immediately filled with doubt, "Shuyue, what do you know?"
Lin Shuyue shrank back and shook her head, remaining silent. According to Lianxi's plan, the man who was supposed to be with Su Zixi last night was an unsavory character, not the famous young master of the He Family!
He Jingyao had no interest in their internal conflict. He cupped Su Zixi's face, looking at the clear handprint on her cheek, his expression grew darker and darker.
Su Zixi stared blankly at his angry face, feeling a sudden warmth in her heart.
"Let's go, I'll take you to see a doctor." Saying that, he turned and instructed the elder man, "Uncle Li, stay here and handle this."
"Yes, young master," Uncle Li responded flatly, "What about the Su Family?"
"Let them go for now, I'll deal with them later when I have time." He left this remark and gave Su Guo'an a light glance.
Su Guo'an immediately broke into a cold sweat!
He Jingyao grabbed Su Zixi's hand and led her outside. His long legs took big strides, and Su Zixi, already weak in the knees, stumbled and nearly fell trying to keep up!
He Jingyao stopped and looked back at her.
Su Zixi thought he was annoyed at her slow pace and stammered, "I'm... I'm a bit tired..."
In the next second, the world spun around her. When she came to, she was already in He Jingyao's arms.
The man seemed to chuckle softly, "Sorry, I forgot you must be sore and exhausted right now."
Su Zixi's entire body tensed up! The man's strong presence overwhelmed her, leaving her incapable of any coherent thought.
