194 Between Now And Then (1/2)

Hui Yin successfully untied the strap that was wrapped around Hui Jinhai's wrist. But she didn't have any time to breathe a sigh of relief because in the next second, a strong arm was hooked under her knees, her legs were swept off the ground, and she found herself being carried out by Lu Shen in a bridal carry.

”What are you doing?!” she cried, struggling to get out of his arms.

But Lu Shen just tightened his hold and said without looking at her, ”We're going home.”

The door clicked behind them and they were inside the laboratory, shocking the scientists that were busy working on their experiments.

One of them even dropped a test tube into the floor, but he didn't seem to feel the strong acid that was starting to sizzle the sole of his shoes.

All of them were aware of their boss' temper. He was always cold and indifferent, and kept a barrier around him that repelled other people. He also didn't tolerate women that kept pestering him, and would be ruthless in dealing with those who thought that they could 'snag' him and become his next wife.

One would have thought this iceberg wouldn't have the patience to deal with any women other than his dead wife, especially a noisy woman who kept hitting his chest and yelling ”Let me go!”

But that was exactly what was happening now.

”Lu Shen, you can't do this! Punish the Wen family, but don't drag my brother into this! Let me go!”

Hui Yin didn't know how Lu Shen did it, but she was unable to move her feet and the rest of her body. She could only punch his chest with her hands. Except, as the time went by, it was only her hands that ended up being in pain. It felt like she was punching a brick wall, her wrists aching with abuse.

Lu Shen paused and lowered his eyes. ”Don't hurt your hands.”

Not long after, they arrived in the parking lot and Lu Shen strapped her into the passenger seat. Hui Yin doubled her struggle, but Lu Shen locked the doors and no matter how much she pulled on the car door, it wouldn't budge.

”Lu Shen, let me out! I won't let you hurt my brother!”

Hui Yin twisted her body and was about to reach over to press the unlock button on his side of the car door, but Lu Shen stepped on the accelerator and her body slammed back against the seat.

Hui Yin's pupils kept getting bigger and bigger. He was driving too fast! The Maybach rushed out of parking lot, and there was a loud 'screech' as the tires slid sharply out of another hidden exit and shot into the highway. Lu Shen seemed unaware of the speedometer needle, and his foot on the gas pedal kept going down, until it was flat against the floor.

”S...Slow down...”

Hui Yin swallowed her fear. This man was not calm not at all! She knew he must have discovered that Hui Jinhai was the culprit, and she knew that he was angry. He was only her ex-husband, so she knew that he didn't have to cater to her desires. But she kept demanding him to release her brother...any person would feel angry at her tantrum.

Who was she?
