Xin Yu shuddered and her face instantly turned pale.
Lu Yihan's words were indeed harsh, but she had to admit that every word he said was correct. He wasn't exaggerating to scare her. She really couldn't bear the consequences. Even if she could bear the disdain of thousands of people, she couldn't bear to see Qin Fangang fall into hell with her …
"…"
"Why aren't you saying anything? Is it because you can't refute me? "
Lu Yihan saw that she wasn't saying anything and her expression was sorrowful. Lu Yihan didn't know why, but the anger that he had been suppressing earlier was stuck in his throat. Was he that pitiful? He clearly wanted to ridicule her, but seeing her like this, he couldn't bear to do it.
Lu Yihan tightened his grip on her back. Pursing his lips slightly, he hugged her tightly in his arms. He took a deep breath and his voice wasn't as harsh as before. "… Xin Yu, what's wrong with listening to me obediently? What Qin Fangang can give you, what can't I give you? He's just an illegitimate child. You don't have a legitimate relationship with him. What do you think he can give you? He can't give you anything. Don't treat me like this again. I'm just asking for a chance from you. You've never begged a woman like this before, and you're my wife … Sometimes I feel like I'm a failure. It's probably because my attitude towards women in the past was too lax. Now you're the one who's getting retribution. But I think this retribution is enough. Can you … "
"Young Master Han, the reporters are here."
"…"
Before Lu Yihan could finish speaking, a male voice suddenly interrupted them from behind. Both of them were stunned. Lu Yihan's "confession" was interrupted, so he was naturally very unhappy. He turned around with a dark expression. Seeing that his assistant was standing behind him, he restrained himself. "I understand. You can leave first."
The assistant was a little hesitant and looked at Lu Yihan hesitantly.
Seeing him like this, Lu Yihan knew that he had something to say to him. While he was stunned, Xin Yu pushed him away and took two steps back. Lu Yihan didn't force her this time. He only frowned and asked his assistant, "… Is there anything else?"
"… Boss Qin is here."
The assistant said softly, "… Young Master Han, Old Master didn't know that Boss Qin would be here. Moreover, the reporters are here now. Old master told me to inform you. He was afraid that an accident would happen …"
"What accident?"
Lu Yihan sneered. She looked at Xinyu who had been silent all this while and said, "… There are so many people here. He won't say anything. You can leave first. I know what I'm doing."
. "Hearing that, the assistant naturally didn't say anything else. He nodded slightly and turned to leave.
After the assistant left, Lu Yihan wanted to grab Xin Yu again. However, Xin Yu was faster than him this time. She frowned and dodged to the side. When she looked up, she had already calmed down. She said word by word, "… Don't say so much nonsense to me. Don't worry, I won't embarrass you in front of so many people. It's not just because of my father. I won't do anything that will make your father angry either. I'll cooperate with the reporters in a while. "
Lu Yihan was speechless.
Xin Yu didn't wait for Lu Yihan to say anything. She turned to leave, but when she moved, she felt a burning gaze not too far away. It was as though they were separated by thousands of miles, but she could still feel it clearly.
She held her breath. Her gaze met with Qin Fangang's in the air. The man's gaze wasn't as passionate as she had imagined. She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Qin Fangang's gaze was a little cold. He was surrounded by people who followed his every step, so he didn't come over directly.
Xin Yu instinctively clenched her fists. She quickly lowered her gaze. Actually, she hadn't spent much time with Qin Fangang, but she could still tell this man's gaze and expression apart.
He should be unhappy right now.
As for the reason, she could guess a few things. But on second thought, she felt aggrieved. For the past two days, she had been under house arrest at the Lu residence. Where had he gone? At the end of the day, if she really wanted to settle the score, it didn't seem like she was the one in the wrong. Moreover, she had only reluctantly agreed to attend this anniversary because of her father …
As she was thinking, Qin Fangang had already pushed through the crowd. His slender fingers held a wine glass. His deep gaze remained fixed on Xin Yu. He watched her interact with Lu Yihan. He watched that man's hand glide up and down her smooth back. He watched the two of them with their faces pressed against each other. He didn't know what they were talking about … and finally, he watched her guiltily look at him before averting her gaze.
The man's gaze darkened slightly. In an instant, a sharp glint flashed across his eyes.
He raised his neck and downed the wine in his glass in one gulp. He casually placed the glass on the waiter's tray and said "sorry" to the people who came up to greet him. He strode over to Xin Yu.
"…"
Xin Yu lifted the hem of her dress. She was originally prepared to deal with the reporters with Lu Yihan. But from the corner of her eye, she saw that man walking towards her. Her heart trembled and she instinctively stopped in her tracks.
Lu Yihan naturally noticed Qin Fangang walking towards them. He coldly curved his lips. He actually dared to come over?
Xin Yu was a little uneasy. She knew the tempers of these two men very well. This wasn't the first time they had a direct confrontation and conflict because of her. But in the past, it was only in private. Now that they were in front of so many people, she was still worried.
Just as this thought flashed across her mind, Qin Fangang's tall figure was already standing in front of her. He stopped two steps away from her.
Qin Fangang had his hands in his trouser pockets. He was reserved and had a domineering aura that belonged only to him. Xin Yu's heart skipped a beat. She had to admit that no matter when or where, Qin Fangang's perfect image had been deeply ingrained in her heart. No matter what this man did or said, even if it was just a casual gesture, she would still find him sexy and charming.
"Boss Qin, you're in such a good mood today. I thought you would be very busy. I didn't expect you to come to our fifth anniversary."
Lu Yihan was the first to speak. He reached out and put his arm around Xin Yu's shoulder. Xin Yu subconsciously struggled, but didn't dare to make too big of a movement.
Qin Fangang and Lu Yihan were the center of attention. Now that the two of them were standing together, almost everyone's eyes were on them. Xin Yu's scalp went numb and her heart couldn't help but beat faster. She was really afraid that they would make a fool of themselves.
"Do you think I'm here to congratulate you?"
Qin Fangang raised his eyebrows. His gaze was fixed on Xin Yu's face. When his gaze swept past the man's large palm on Xin Yu's shoulder, his eyes darkened slightly. The curve of his thin lips instantly became sharper. His voice was deep and oppressive. "You're thinking too much. I'm not going to waste my time over a farce."
"…"
How could Lu Yihan miss such an obvious provocation? His emotions were already tense to begin with. Now that he heard Qin Fangang's words, his pupils contracted sharply. Xin Yu could even feel the air pressure around her plummet. She was really afraid that the two of them would throw caution to the wind. She immediately stepped forward. Just as she was about to say something, Qin Fangang's eyes darkened, but he was one step faster than her.
The man's slender and strong fingers suddenly reached over and directly grabbed her wrist. His long legs took a step toward the two of them. He forced Xin Yu to take a step back.
Xin Yu was speechless.
When Lu Yihan saw that Qin Fangang actually dared to grab Xin Yu's hand so brazenly, he was even more furious. He stepped forward and reached out to pull Qin Fangang's hand away, but halfway through, Qin Fangang's other hand swatted his hand away. The two men were sandwiching a woman, and a fight was about to break out at any moment.
There were so many people in the banquet hall. When they saw this situation, all of them looked excited.
They had long heard that the two sons of the Lu family were not on good terms. Furthermore, Leng Xinyu had previously exposed her affair. What was the meaning of this situation now?
…
"A farce?"
Lu Yihan emphasized every word. "Since it's a farce, what are you doing here? Qin Fangang, let me tell you, the only man who can stand beside Leng Xinyu now is me, Lu Yihan. Let go! "
"What do you think I'm doing here?"
Qin Fangang's expression was calm. His eyes were deep and revealed a hint of uncontrollable wisdom. The sexy curve of his thin lips was domineering, and he was determined to win. He slightly tightened his grip on Xin Yu's wrist and raised his eyebrows. "I'm here to take away the person who belongs to me. As for you, you should take care of the person who belongs to you —"
"…"
There was a deeper meaning to his words. Xin Yu did not fully understand it at that moment. Lu Yihan did not have time to rein in the anger on his face. Suddenly, another man's voice came from behind them. The three of them turned around at the same time and saw Lu Shiyun, who was also dressed in a formal suit, walking over with a walking stick and a cold expression.
Xin Yu was the one who felt the most guilty. Her heart trembled and she tried to break free from Qin Fangang's grip.
Qin Fangang's expression was even uglier. His tightly pursed lips sank slightly. Not only did he not let go of her, he even tightened his grip and directly pulled Xin Yu into his arms.
Xin Yu was speechless.
"What are you doing?"
Lu Shiyun saw the situation from afar. His expression was as ugly as it could be, but he kept it in. He did not expect Qin Fangang to suddenly come back. He was clearly in England, and there was no news of him previously. He had a lot of things to announce tonight, and now Qin Fangang had obviously disrupted his plans.
However, he knew his son well. His son's thoughts were too deep. In addition, there were too many people in such a situation. If he could control it, he naturally did not want to create any chaos.
"Let's talk about it properly."
