Shen Jianyi hesitated for a moment, then kicked straight at Lu Jinsheng's chest.
Lu Jinsheng frowned slightly, quickly took a half - step back to dodge, and grabbed Shen Jianyi's calf with a big hand. Off - balance, Shen Jianyi had no choice but to fall forward.
Lu Jinsheng was well - prepared. He put an arm around Shen Jianyi's waist, picked her up horizontally, and threw her over his shoulder.
It seemed that this woman was going to confront him to the end. He wanted to see how long she could still be so stubborn.
With her dainty face flushed red, Shen Jianyi had never suffered such humiliation in her life.
She slapped the man's back desperately, but he remained unmoved and carried her striding towards the room.
Lu Jinsheng kicked open the bathroom door and directly threw her into the large bathtub. She was so dizzy from the toss.
Then he turned on the shower. The cold water splashed down, making Shen Jianyi shiver and instantly come to her senses.
She grabbed the edge of the bathtub and tried to climb out, but the man somehow pressed himself on top of her, rendering her immobile.
"Not going to talk, huh?"
A hint of evil flashed across Lu Jinsheng's chiseled face. He pressed one hand on Shen Jianyi's chest to prevent her from getting up, and with the other hand, he started to tug at his tie, looking as if he was about to undress.
"What are you doing?!"
Shen Jianyi finally shouted out. Her shrill voice trembled slightly, and so did Lu Jinsheng's cold heart like an iceberg.
The scene in front of him was so familiar. Especially Shen Jianyi's deer - like eyes. In countless nights of his childhood, his mother was always bullied under his father's body like this, and those eyes were always filled with tears...
For a moment, the scenes of his father torturing his mother in his childhood flashed through his mind one by one. His chest felt as if it was being crushed by a big rock and he couldn't breathe. Lu Jinsheng couldn't help but tremble all over.
Seeing that he was acting strange, Shen Jianyi was about to take the opportunity to escape, but the man hugged her tightly and bit hard on her shoulder.
"Ah..."
Shen Jianyi couldn't help but cry out in pain. The man fell heavily into her arms, still twitching all over.
This guy probably has a heart disease or something, right?
Shen Jianyi felt that her head was about to explode. What bad luck she had! She didn't find the clue and instead met such a crazy person.
In the blink of an eye, while the man was defenseless, Shen Jianyi pushed him away forcefully and jumped out of the bathtub.
Looking at the disheveled man in the white bathtub, Shen Jianyi took a helpless deep breath. It wouldn't be good if he died here.
She took out a sedative from her inner pocket. Holding down the man's arm, she was about to inject it.
"What... what are you doing?"
Lu Jinsheng had a splitting headache but still had a faint consciousness. Seeing the woman looking at him contemptuously and about to give him an injection, even a calm man like him couldn't help but feel a bit panicked.
"Don't be afraid. You won't die."
With that, Shen Jianyi quickly, accurately, and firmly pushed the liquid in the syringe into the man's vein.
Soon, Lu Jinsheng calmed down. The previous hostility and dishevelment were gone, and so was the danger.
Not long after, Shen Jianyi escaped from the Lu family through the window. Her deer - like agile figure quickly disappeared into the night.
On the other side, out of years of vigilance, He Yu, who had been guarding at the door, quickly noticed something was wrong. After hesitating for half a minute, he kicked open the room door forcefully.
After searching the room, He Yu didn't see Lu Jinsheng's figure and started to panic.
"Mr. Lu, where are you?"
Lu Jinsheng vaguely heard He Yu's voice and struggled to make noise to attract his attention.
"Mr. Lu!"
He Yu was stunned when he saw the messy bathroom. He quickly helped Lu Jinsheng up. He knew that Lu Jinsheng must have had a manic - depressive episode.
"Mr. Lu, hold on!"
He Yu carried the dying Lu Jinsheng to the bed, quickly took out the usual injection from his bag. It was the special medicine for Lu Jinsheng's manic - depression. He Yu skillfully gave Lu Jinsheng the injection and then fed him the oral medicine.
Seeing Lu Jinsheng's complexion gradually ease, He Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Lu, can you hear me?"
The black shadow in front of his eyes gradually dissipated. The first thing that came to Lu Jinsheng's mind was that stubborn little face.
"Go and bring that woman back right away."
"What?" He Yu was a bit surprised.
"I want you to go and bring that woman back in person."
"But Mr. Lu, your body..."
"I'm fine. Go quickly!"
"Yes!"
Although Lu Jinsheng on the bed looked weak, his tone was firm. He Yu didn't dare to disobey him. Even though he was worried, he immediately strode out of the room.
Early the next morning, at the Lu family mansion.
Lu Jinsheng was drinking coffee in the pavilion of the villa. The haze on his face disappeared as soon as he saw Shen Jianyi. He seemed to be in a good mood today.
"Walk faster."
"Don't touch me."
Walking in front was Shen Jianyi. Opposite to Lu Jinsheng, she was only feeling angry at the moment.
If it weren't for the large number of people chasing her, how could she have surrendered to save her life? Not far away was that suit - clad man. After a night, he looked decent again.
"Shen Jianyi, long time no see."
The man sitting in front of her was as exquisitely handsome as a sculpture. If she hadn't seen his disheveled appearance last night, Shen Jianyi would have thought he was a bit unreal.
"Lu Jinsheng, what on earth do you want?"
One night was enough for her to find out all about Lu Jinsheng. He probably had nothing to do with that human trafficker, but this made Shen Jianyi even more curious about his intention of capturing her by every means.
"It seems that you already know who I am," Lu Jinsheng said with an appreciative smile. "Take a look. I have what you need here."
There was a stack of documents on the table. Shen Jianyi opened them. The first page was a photo of her younger sister.
"I can help you find Shen Weiting. In exchange, you have to stay in the Lu family and marry me."
"Marry?"
Shen Jianyi threw down the documents and looked at Lu Jinsheng in disbelief. Did he think she would believe him just because of a few unimportant documents?
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Lu, but I'll find my own sister. You'd better find someone else to marry."
He Yu standing beside couldn't help but gasp. He had been by Lu Jinsheng's side for so many years, and no one had ever dared to talk to Mr. Lu like this!
"I have something for you to see."
The cold voice sounded behind her. Shen Jianyi, who was about to leave, turned around. Her bright eyes trembled when she saw the familiar jade pendant.
This... this was Weiting's jade pendant!
Before their mother died, she left each of her and her sister a jade pendant as a protective amulet, and they always wore them.
"Why is my sister's pendant in your hand?"
Trying hard to hold back her excited emotions, Shen Jianyi stepped forward and questioned.
Lu Jinsheng just gave a mysterious smile. "As long as you agree to my conditions, I'll tell you."
Seeing the faint smile on Lu Jinsheng's ice - cold face all year round, He Yu was even more surprised.
Was Mr. Lu really going to marry Shen Jianyi?
