“I warn you, don’t set your sights on my Sixth Brother. He’s not the kind of guy you can flirt with so easily!”
Shen Wan raised an eyebrow, watching him calmly.
Lushen felt a sudden twist in his heart under her gaze, an inexplicable discomfort creeping in. He tried to sound tough, “You… what are you looking at?”
“Hmm.” Shen Wan nodded with a smile, openly admitting, “I’m looking at exactly nothing.”
Lushen was speechless.
Suddenly, Shen Wan raised her uninjured left hand and patted his shoulder. The man shivered all over and jumped back a few steps.
“I… I warn you! Don’t lay a finger on me, or I’ll… I’ll beat you to a pulp!” He wore a guarded expression, as if Shen Wan was a notorious pervert who was about to make her move. He acted like he was on the verge of yelling assault while crossing his arms defensively.
Shen Wan withdrew her hand with an amused smile, silently cursing him as a complete idiot.
“Don’t worry, I’m not interested in your Sixth Brother.”
“Lies! If you weren’t interested, why did you throw yourself at him last night?” He scoffed, clearly misunderstanding the situation.
“If you’re talking about what happened in the alley yesterday, I can only say this: If the person who showed up at the alley entrance was you, I would have thrown myself at you too. So, do you understand what I mean?”
In an emergency, with no means of defense, she would seek help from anyone, be it a beggar or a passerby, to save her life. It wasn’t exclusive to Quan Hanting.
But in Lushen’s ears, her words became
“Wow! Even with my Sixth Brother around, you’re not satisfied, and actually…” He pursed his thin lips, his expression resembling that of a modest woman who had been teased, “…want to seduce me?!”
Shen Wan’s gaze turned ice-cold. “You fool!” He couldn’t even understand her words.
“You, a stinky woman, dare to insult me?” Lushen, in frustration, grabbed her arm, accidentally pressing on her wound.
Shen Wan let out a muffled groan, her expression filled with pain.
Lushen quickly let go, stuttering, “I… I didn’t mean to…”
She took a deep breath, and after a good half-minute, she finally recovered. “Let me make this clear one last time. Whether it’s you or Quan Hanting, I’m not interested in either of you. If I hear one more ‘seduce’ or ‘tempt’ from you, I’ll tear your filthy mouth apart.”
Lushen’s face darkened.
“Do you dare to try?”
“Is it necessary? If you weren’t guilty, you wouldn’t be so sensitive to those words. And tearing my mouth apart, well… don’t forget, I was the one who saved you last night. Look at this—” Lushen pointed to the lingering bruise on his cheekbone, “This is proof! Is this how you treat someone who saved your life?”
She gave him a cold look and without a word, turned and went upstairs. Lushen was confused.
Did she escape in frustration because she couldn’t win him in an argument?
“Hmph… let’s see if you dare to be arrogant in front of me next time!”
But Lushen quickly realized he had misunderstood, as Shen Wan ran back downstairs and stood in front of him again. She wore a cold expression as she threw something into his arms.
Lushen instinctively caught it and opened his palm, his eyes puzzled.
Then, he heard her somewhat mocking voice
“All these days, you’ve been like a mad dog, not letting go. From spraying paint to catching adultery, it was all just to get this bracelet, right? Well, here it is. I’m giving it to you for free, no charge. Consider it your reward for saving me last night. From now on, we’re even. You won’t bother me, and I won’t bother you. So, pack up those childish tricks and malicious words. I don’t owe you anything, and I certainly don’t have any obligation to indulge you.”
After saying this, she turned and walked away.
She didn’t want to gaze at idiocy for too long, fearing that her own intelligence might start to decline as well..
