Chapter 112
“He doesn’t have a phone. Unless I contact him for you, you won’t be able to find him.”
“You…” An Ruo took a deep breath and asked coldly, “Did you take Xiao Ji away to threaten me? Tang Yuchen, I agreed to listen to you, whatever you say goes, but you must promise me, you absolutely cannot let anything happen to Xiao Ji.”
The man’s smile faded, as he said indifferently, “Do you think you are that valuable? Whether An Ji lives or dies in there is entirely up to him. If he’s strong enough, he will survive. If not, then he’s waiting to be killed by others. I certainly don’t have the time to send someone to protect him.”
An Ruo’s face turned pale instantly. She grabbed his collar, demanding angrily, “Where exactly did you take Xiao Ji to?! If it’s such a dangerous place, why did you take him there! Tang Yuchen, give Xiao Ji back to me. If anything happens to him, even as a ghost I won’t let you off!”
The man pulled off her hands, holding them in his own, and smirked with a curved lip, “You underestimate your brother too much. Don’t worry, he’ll definitely survive.”
An Ruo didn’t care about what he said; she only knew that Xiao Ji was in a dangerous place.
“Name your price. I’ll agree to any condition as long as you bring him back. Tang Yuchen, he’s still a child, and he’s not well; I’m begging you, please don’t let me lose the closest person to me, okay?” An Ruo pleaded with him in a low voice.
The man slightly frowned, showing a bit of impatience in his expression.
“I’ll tell you once more, it was his choice to stay. Even if I bring him back, he won’t come! An Ruo, this is misplaced compassion. An Ji’s choice is the right one; otherwise, the two of you siblings could only be bullied by others for the rest of your lives!”
Hearing his words, An Ruo also became furious, “If you hadn’t sent someone to take him, would he have chosen to stay?! So what if I have misplaced compassion? I only know that I cannot let him be harmed! As for being bullied, ha, I think aside from you, no one else would bully us!”
“Really? How did the An Mingqi family bully you?”
An Ruo looked away, speaking flatly, “That’s all in the past. We’ve broken free from them now, and they can’t bully us anymore.”
Tang Yuchen curled his lip in a cold smirk, “An Ruo, do you want your brother to always grow under your protection? You’re a woman, if he’s always behind your back, can he even become a man?”
“That’s none of your business!” An Ruo grew angry, or more rightly, annoyed and indignant.
She knew she had always protected Xiao Ji too well, which in fact might have harmed him. But she just couldn’t help being kind to him; she didn’t want him to feel sad or upset.
Tang Yuchen’s eyes were deep, a complex light flashing within them.
“Typical woman!” He snorted coldly, his tone filled with disdain for women, yet also with a hint of helplessness.
An Ruo was about to say something else when he suddenly gripped her chin and kissed her, sealing her mouth.
“Mmm…” An Ruo struggled reflexively. The man quickly grabbed her hands and leaned in to pin her against the table, his firm chest pressing tightly against her soft bosom.
Kissing her soft lips, Tang Yuchen’s eyes became darker and more profound, his body tense, and a surge of desire quickly blazed in his lower abdomen, causing his body to ache.
An Ruo clenched her teeth, refusing to let him in. A flash of amusement crossed his eyes, and suddenly, he bit her lip.
