Bao Shaojin glanced at her sideways but didn’t respond. An Yin’s phone was firmly gripped in the man’s hand, and even though she was unwilling, she didn’t dare to snatch it back. The disparity in strength between the two was too great; An Yin dared not act rashly. In the hall, the man leisurely seated himself in front of the sofa, tapping lightly on the phone screen with his distinctly jointed fingers, and at once, faint sounds reached An Yin’s ears. An Yin looked at her phone painfully. "Sit." Bao Shaojin gazed into the distance with a calm expression. Seeing his steady tone and serene expression, An Yin gradually let down her guard and sat about a meter away from the man. Most of the time, the young lady was quite obedient. Bao Shaojin looked at her timid appearance and spoke in a low tone, "What do you like about Bao Cheng?" If it were before, he wouldn’t have bothered to ask this question. After all, that guy in his eyes was just an immature punk, who grew up to only bring trouble for the family by toying with women and forcing the family to clean up his messes or making unreliable investments that resulted in the family covering the losses. In the past, he was quite lenient with this cousin, whether it was financially or in some personal affairs, he could lend a hand openly or covertly. Since this brat got a girlfriend as beautiful as a fairy, Bao Shaojin could feel that he had a nagging discomfort about this cousin. Faced with the man’s question, An Yin was stunned for a moment, her mind went blank. Why did the man suddenly ask her? An Yin lowered her head, not wanting the man to see the panic in her eyes. She didn’t like Bao Cheng at all. She even disliked him a bit. If it weren’t for him, Jiang Keke’s emotions wouldn’t have fluctuated so unstably these days. Also, Bao Cheng’s infidelity made An Yin very disdainful. As for Bao Shaojin’s words, she really didn’t know how to respond. "You’re not after his money." A glint of darkness flashed in Bao Shaojin’s eyes, "So, you just purely like him as a person?" Ever since he knew An Yin, the young lady gave him a rather simple impression, and she always liked to split hairs over money. In theory, the women around Bao Cheng were mostly there for money, or for fame. A young lady who seemed to want nothing was rather troublesome. "I, I don’t want to discuss anything about him." An Yin said timidly. An Yin’s wandering eyes showed that she wanted to evade this topic. Bao Shaojin’s cool gaze swept over her, and on his stern, handsome face, there was a hint of a sinister aura. He had a fire in his heart with nowhere to vent. An Yin didn’t notice the change in the man, weakly saying, "It’s so late, I should go." "To where?" Bao Shaojin said coldly, "Bao Cheng doesn’t have time to pick you up right now, maybe he’s with your friend..." Bao Shaojin noticed the young lady’s bright eyes, and the unpleasant words eventually remained unsaid. The man mentioned Bao Cheng several times, which made An Yin very upset. She retorted impatiently, "No matter what Bao Cheng is doing, it has nothing to do with me." The young lady’s tone was aggressive, as if she was throwing a tantrum. Listening to her words, Bao Shaojin found it hard to guess what was going on in her mind. Her boyfriend and her best friend were involved, yet she still managed to get along with her best friend? Not only that, the young lady probably didn’t know that she had been betrayed by her best friend! Thinking of this, Bao Shaojin raised his head and pinched his brow. These messy matters were obviously supposed to be her worry, but it seemed like he cared more than she did. An Yin saw the man frowning deeply and mustered the courage to ask, "Are you feeling unwell?" Bao Shaojin suddenly squinted his eyes, looking directly at the care-free person. An Yin only felt a chill from the top of her head, quickly spreading throughout her body. "I’m fine." Bao Shaojin said irritably. An Yin’s bright eyes fell on the man’s dark face, and she muttered in her heart, "How do I feel like you’re lying, you clearly look quite depressed." When An Yin relaxed, she easily revealed her true nature, and the murmured words were caught completely by the man. Until she saw the man looking at her with slightly cold eyes, An Yin quickly covered her mouth, realizing that she had accidentally spoken her mind. "With that sharp tongue, it’s a pity you can’t use it on the pair that betrayed you." Bao Shaojin mocked, a casual indifference in his voice. An Yin’s face crumpled, and she threw a sideways glance at the man. Everything was going well, why did he bring up Bao Cheng and Jiang Keke again? And, she hadn’t offended him, why did An Yin always feel that the man in front of her was unfriendly towards Bao Cheng and Jiang Keke? Or, was it just her imagination? When it came to Bao Cheng and Jiang Keke, the young lady fell silent, and this timid behavior made Bao Shaojin frown slightly, "Pathetic." Bao Shaojin’s gaze, carrying a sense of iron not turned steel, fell on her. He scorned her repeatedly, and An Yin stamped her foot in frustration, stood up, "I’m leaving." With that, she stepped toward the door. However, before she could take a step, her slender wrist was restrained by the man. The man just exerted a little force, making it impossible for her to break free. "Don’t make a scene." Bao Shaojin took a deep breath, looking deeply into her eyes that were throwing a little fit. An Yin lowered her eyes to her wrist, the man’s long fingers were holding onto it, the slight coolness of his palm seemed to leave a mark on the places he touched, causing an inexplicable heat within her. An Yin flusteredly tried to pull her hand back, "Let me go." "Stay?" The man’s tone was gentle, lacking any ups and downs, as if no matter what she did, the result wouldn’t go her way. Maybe the man’s piercing eagle eyes were too intense, An Yin only felt her face getting a bit hot, and a stuffy feeling rose in her heart. "I can stay, but I have a condition." An Yin muttered, looking up to meet the man’s cold eyes with pretended composure. The timid little thing actually learned to negotiate terms with him. Typically disinterested in even crucial business discussions, the young lady’s words inadvertently piqued his interest. "Say it." The man lifted his lips slightly. He didn’t expect anything constructive to come from the young lady’s mouth. Content orıginally comes from 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩 "From now on, you can’t mention Bao Cheng and my friend Jiang Keke." After saying it, An Yin held her breath, watching the man. The stray hairs on Bao Shaojin’s forehead covered his deep eyes, and he squinted slightly, "That’s it?" "Can I mention it?" An Yin foolishly blurted out. "What do you think?" Bao Shaojin looked at her pink cheeks, and if you looked closely, you could see every fine hair clearly. An Yin was left speechless.
