Hui Yin shoved Lu Shen away. What did he mean by putting her hand around his throat?

”Release Jiang Xu!” she demanded. ”Did you forget your promise? I told you to stay away from me!”

Behind Lu Shen, Nian Zhen's body trembled. She thought that this trash would be extremely heartbroken after Brother Shen broke their engagement, but she was actually flirting around with another man. What's even more unbelievable was that contrary to what Nian Zhen had thought, this scene before her seemed to be as if it was Brother Shen who didn't want to let go of this actress!

Lu Shen let Hui Yin push him away. But his hand was still persistently gripping her wrist.

”Promise? When did I promise?”

Hui Yin glared at him and ignored his words. ”Don't you dare target their company!”

She had thought that Lu Shen considered her words from before because the Nians and the Lus stopped targeting Luo Lan, and Lu Shen had gotten engaged to Nian Zhen. But from Lu Shen's attitude and his words, it seemed that it wasn't the case at all. If she couldn't threaten him with Nian Hsin's illegal dealings and damaging the reputation of the Lu Corporation, what else could she do? In the end, she was only an average girl trying to go against someone most people wouldn't dare to offend.

Hui Yin wasn't particularly smart, and she came from a common background. Even if she had the memories from her past life, the future was constantly changing and she couldn't predict everything that would happen.

She glanced down at the panda that had fallen to the ground from her struggle earlier. Its white coat had been stained by dirt, and it looked extremely pitiful. Yue Lao was right. If she stayed here, even if she and Jiang Xu dated, once her memories from her past life disappeared, Hui Yin wasn't confident that she wouldn't return back to Lu Shen.

And even if Hui Yin didn't actively chase after Lu Shen, will he even let her be free? Hui Yin didn't think so. He could simply threaten those around her—Jiang Xu, Luo Lan, the twins, Bao Bai and Ye Qiang, maybe even Sister Su—and her resistance would crumble, leading her into a path of no return.

Seeing Hui Yin being put in a difficult situation made Jiang Xu feel helpless as well. He thought that as long as his Wifey reciprocated his feelings, everything would end up happily. But if the Great Dragon King still wanted her...he hated himself for being powerless, for being the reason his Wifey was being threatened. He suddenly understood why Wuji became so competitive. He wanted to have the power to protect his Wifey too.

”Leave with me,” Lu Shen said, and his grip tightened. ”Leave with me now and I'll leave the Jiangs alone.”

Hui Yin saw Nian Zhen clenching her fists tightly. For her fiancé to be telling another girl to leave with him...wasn't it simply slapping her in the face? Although Hui Yin inwardly felt satisfied about this, her anger at Lu Shen overcame this slight sense of satisfaction.

Nian Zhen couldn't bear to simply watch anymore. ”Brother Shen, let's just go back to the carnival...”
