How could he, who looked cold and heartless, endure such a crazy sister? As a potential customer who only had physical and financial connections, shouldn't he leave in disgust?

His hatred for him suddenly lessened. Just because he was by her side at this moment when his sister was in the most difficult situation, he didn't leave her. He wiped off the tears at the corners of his eyes and continued to speak in a cold tone.

"It's just that, the night my parents died in a car accident, it just so happened to be raining heavily. It's just that I almost died that night, causing her world to almost collapse."

Liangqiu's feigned nonchalance only made the matter sound even more desolate. This time, when he switched places with the manor, he was at a loss. His handsome brows wrinkled even more, forming a deep ravine between his brows.

He opened his mouth, but could not utter a single word. He could only silently hang up the phone. He knew the pain of having his parents die overnight, because he had experienced that terrible experience before. But for a girl, this was too cruel.

The heavy rain outside seemed to be about to stop. The rain this season always stopped abruptly. Zhuang Shili was like a motionless guardian god as he leaned against the door of the bedroom. He stood like this for a long time, staring at the unconscious person on the bed.

He didn't dare to imagine how she would have gotten through this obstacle if he hadn't chased after her. Was this how a person cowered under a blanket? Was she going to be scared out of her wits and no one would care if she lived or died? If... He shook his head, not daring to think further …

Why the hell did he have to worry so much like a woman? He cursed to himself in anger before turning around and dialing the number.

"Long Yi, tell the others that the matter regarding Long Ying will be discussed tomorrow!"

The next morning, when Zhuang Shizhong woke up, he found that she was in his arms. He slept like this with her for the whole night. Last night, seeing that she was not sleeping well, he went to bed and hugged her for a while.

He didn't think that he would gently hug her and smell the fresh scent of her body like that. It was as if he was hypnotized. He unloaded all of his defenses and fell into a deep sleep.

He recalled the day he saw her shopping in the mall with a girl who was not in the mainstream. Their relationship seemed to be pretty good.

He took her cell phone and sure enough, there was a person called Shu Can. He tried dialing that number and hung up the call to Shu Can. Then, as if he remembered something, he called the coffee shop where she worked.

When he thought about how she worked in a coffee shop, especially when that coffee shop was opened by Song Heng, he could not help but get angry.

Just as he finished tidying himself up, he heard the doorbell ring. Opening the door, he saw a delicate and pretty girl rushing towards the door anxiously. He stopped her with a displeased expression on his face.

"Who are you?"

The girl was stunned for a moment, then wiped her face and said with an embarrassed smile,

"I'm Shu Can!"

When she received his call that morning, she did not have the time to clean herself up before she ran towards him, face to face.

It was understandable that this man didn't recognize her. Even she wasn't used to her appearance without makeup. The thick makeup had already become a mask for her to disguise herself.

That day at the mall, he saw Shu Can covered in makeup. He couldn't connect the pure face in front of him with that girl who wasn't from the mainstream. When he came back to his senses, he let her in with an embarrassed look on his face.

Seeing Autumn Leaf come out before she even woke up, Shu Ming knew why she fainted the moment she received the phone call from Chuang.

Standing there, she felt a little awkward. Although she was usually unruly, she still felt uneasy when faced with this man who looked down on everything.

Since she didn't ask for the reason why she knew about her nightmare, Zhuang Shili didn't say anything. He just glanced at the uncomfortable Shu Ming who picked up his jacket and said calmly,

"Since you came, I'll leave first. When she wakes up, ask him to call me!"

The moment he stepped out of the door, he saw a man walking out of the elevator. When he saw who it was, he couldn't help but stop and narrow his eyes dangerously.

Song Hengming hurried out of the elevator with a face full of anxiety. He heard from the coffee shop manager that Autumn Leaf was injured yesterday, and today, there was a man calling to say that she was about to resign. He was very worried, so he came to take a look.

He raised his head in a hurry and saw Zhuang Shili proudly standing at the entrance of Autumn Leaf's apartment with his coat. He was stunned as a trace of a mocking and estranged smile appeared on his face.

In that instant, he suddenly understood why the atmosphere was so weird when he met Autumn Leaf at the hospital, and he also understood that the person who picked her up at the hospital gate was him.

But, why would she offend someone like Young Master Zhuang? She couldn't afford to offend him either! Also, what kind of woman did Zhuang Shili want from a man like that? How could he destroy someone as innocent as her?

The more Song Hengming thought about it, the angrier he became. However, that man stood motionlessly in front of her door. He couldn't help but clench his fist. With a cold face, he said through gritted teeth,

"Zhuang Shili, don't hurt her!"

His black eyes were looking straight at Song Hengming, and his dark eyes were full of mockery. Zhuang Shixiong opened his mouth and spat out a few words.

"You don't need to worry about my woman!"

With that, Mo Mo Mo looked away again, not even sparing a glance at him.

"If you wish to visit, please do so as soon as possible. "If I don't see you coming out of this door in five minutes, my people will come up and ask you to come out!"

"Zhuang Shili, you are shameless! "I came as an elder brother to visit her …"

Song Hengming flew into a rage, his white face turning red.

Zhuang Shili cast him a lazy glance.

"No need!"

He walked towards the elevator without looking back, his domineering voice drifting along the quiet corridor in the early morning.

"Love from a man, it's enough as long as I give it to her. She doesn't care about love from others!"

"You …"

Song Hengming was so angry that he couldn't say a word. As a man, his domineering and disdainful attitude had seriously hurt his pride, but there was nothing he could do about it.

He did not have the ability to anger him. Although his family background was outstanding and belonged to the upper class, his wealth was far from being comparable to that of the rich countries of the Zhuang family. Furthermore, he had a frightening status in the Dao, the boss of the Dragon Gate!

In the apartment.

The manor had just passed by when Autumn Leaf woke up. She slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw that the person in front of her was Shu Zhen, she was both surprised and a little regretful.

With a single glance, Shu Can saw through her thoughts, rolled her eyes, and then handed her a cup of water.

"He just left!"

Embarrassed, she hugged her water glass and said,

"Oh, oh …"

She remembered that she had slept through the night using a generous hug. Luckily, Shu Can had just mentioned it, otherwise she would have thought that she would never forget him. She would have been able to dream about him even if she dreamed at night.

"He told you to call him when you woke up!"

Shu Can sat on the edge of the bed, crawling up her messy hair.

"He seems to care a lot about you. Last night, he actually spent an entire night with you. Autumn Leaf, do you think he fell in love with you?"

"Cough, cough ~ ~ ~"

Autumn Leaf was frightened by her shocking words and choked on her saliva.

"How is that possible!"

She covered her mouth and coughed violently.
