I thought I'd stumbled upon some crooked thug, and just as I was about to scream in terror, a chilly male voice suddenly fell upon my ears.
"If you're not afraid of drawing attention, just go ahead and scream."
My body froze for a second before I realized that the person pulling me was actually Cheng Yu!
My nerves tensed up, and I quickly scanned the surroundings. Seeing that this hall was definitely booked by the Zhao Family for the day's event, and that the front and back doors, which weren't receiving guests, were both closed, I finally caught my breath in relief, "Mr. Cheng, why have you dragged me here?"
His perceptive eyes locked onto mine, and out of the blue, he uttered, "Fuck you! Would you believe that?"
Between the gossip of those officer's wives and the apprehension that the rumors might have spread outside, hearing him say this, my face immediately darkened, "I don't appreciate jokes!"
