“Where are we?” Qi Shenbai looked at Xu Jiao jiao beside him.

“This used to be my home and the former Lu family home. However, they moved away first. Later on, my father started a business and made some money, so we moved away as well,” Xu Jiaojiao replied softly.

Now that these places had been demolished, most of the people had moved away. Only a few families still lived here.

They arrived at a dilapidated building. When they reached the sixth floor, Xu Jiaojiao suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Cang Xing could tell that something was wrong. He stepped forward and kicked the door open. Then, he patted the dust off his pants.

Xu Jiaojiao was stunned when she saw him like this. How could he do that without a second’s hesitation?

The bodyguard turned on the lights. It had been a long time since someone had lived in the house. There was a lot of dust and only one table was relatively clean. Qi Shenbai sat down at the table and waved at Xu Jiaojiao. “Come and sit.” He pointed at his thigh.

Xu Jiaojiao was a little embarrassed when she glanced at Cang Xing and the bodyguards. Qi Shenbai saw her hesitating and did not care if she agreed or not. He directly pulled her into his arms and let her sit on his lap.

“Search the place!” Qi Shenbai ordered the bodyguards. A group of people rushed into the house and searched carefully. Finally, they pulled out the haggard Lu Huan.

Lu Huan was thrown to the ground. Her hair was disheveled and her face was dirty. It seemed that she had not washed up for many days.

Looking at Xu Jiaojiao, she could not help but feel guilty and nervous.

Upon seeing her, Xu Jiaojiao got down from Qi Shenbai’s lap and walked up to her. With a loud slap, she slapped her on the right side of her face.

Xu Jiaojiao used a lot of strength and five finger marks appeared on Lu Huan’s face.

“You hit me?!” Lu Huan glared at Xu Jiaojiao.

“That’s right, 1 hit you.” Xu Jiaojiao was very calm. Then, she stretched out her left hand and slapped the left side of Lu Huan’s face. Now her left and right cheeks had symmetrical handprints.

“You little…!” Lu Huan was about to curse at Xu Jiaojiao, but when she met Qi Shenbai’s gaze, she felt terrified. She swallowed the words on her tongue.

“What about me? 1 shouldn’t have hit you, right? But you know why I hit you, don’t you?” Xu Jiaojiao asked. Lu Huan naturally knew why.

She wanted to expose Xu Jiaojiao’s past and let everyone know. Most importantly, she wanted Qi Shenbai to know so that he would leave Xu Jiaojiao.

Unexpectedly, instead of destroying Xu Jiaojiao, she got the police called on her instead.

Helpless, she could only hide here like a bedbug. Even so, Xu Jiaojiao still found her in the end.

Lu Huan did not want to admit defeat. Her eyes were filled with infatuation as she looked at Qi Shenbai. “Don’t you know that she’s a freak? She could speak as soon as she was born. She didn’t cry or laugh as a baby. After that, she was bullied, and her bullies took all sorts of photos. Many men might have seen those photos. Don’t you feel disgusted?”

Xu Jiaojiao wanted to hit her when she heard what she said, but she had used too much strength just now, so she did not have power left. Moreover, her palm was still stinging.

It felt good to hit a b*tch like Lu Huan, but her hand would also hurt afterward.

“No, because 1 love her.” Qi Shenbai stood in front of Lu Huan and said every word clearly, stabbing Lu Huan’s heart with every syllable.

However, Xu Jiaojiao’s heart was warm and she felt a little shy. Why did he confess like that in front of so many people?

“Why do you love her? She’s nothing! She doesn’t know anything. But you’d rather pour all your love at her than even look at me. Don’t you know that I fell in love with you from the first moment 1 saw you? 1 fell head over heels for you! 1 could do anything for you. Anything at all…”

Lu Huan’s tears fell like raindrops washing her slightly swollen face.

“Anything? Will you die for me?” Qi Shenbai asked.

‘Die?’

Lu Huan froze.

“If you jump down from here, it will prove that you love me,” Qi Shenbai said and pointed at the window.

“What about her? Will she die for you?” Lu Huan refused to admit defeat and pointed at Xu Jiaojiao.

“She doesn’t need to. 1 love her, so I’m willing to die for her.” Qi Shenbai enunciated each word firmly.

He was willing to die for her? Xu Jiaojiao looked at him.

Was he telling the truth? Or was he just saying it to provoke Lu Huan? It did not seem like the latter. He had actually placed his life in Xu Jiaojiao’s hands.

Lu Huan’s heart was broken when she heard this. Tears streamed down her face, but she did not cry at all. When people were in the depths of sorrow, their sobs were always silent..
