Cheng Xin trembled, more certain now that Li Qun had recognized her.

How about—

Show your cards!

She really couldn’t stand it!

Just as Cheng Xin was about to stand up, Chen Yuan suddenly said, “President Li, she’s not worth your time. She’s just a lunatic. She’s unable to understand these things.”

Chen Yuan had known that Li Qun was possessive, but he had never thought that he would treat this woman like this.

Li Qun stared at the expressionless Cheng Xin, and his gaze deepened as if he had seen through her.

“That’s true. She’s just crazy.”

Li Qun let go of Cheng Xin’s red earlobes, placed his hands on her shoulders, and chuckled.

Cheng Xin did not dare move a muscle.

She really did not know what Li Qun was thinking.

He said that he did not recognize her, and then he said those threatening words.

He said that he recognized her, and then he let her go.

Why?

Forget it, Cheng Xin was tired. She might as well deal with it this way.

“Right, is this the electronic lock of the slums? Can it be unlocked?”

Just when Cheng Xin thought that Li Qun was going to let her go, Li Qun suddenly took her hand and touched the electronic lock on her wrist.

It was the symbol of the slums. Every person who had stayed in the slums would wear such an electronic lock.

“Without the president’s office handling it, the electronic lock, made of this special material, can not be opened. Some people escape the slums, and in order not to be recognized, they would even chop off their hands to unlock it,” Chen Yuan replied.

To the public, the slumdogs were unworthy of being called human.

That place was hell, and those who walked out from there were ghosts.

Once someone found someone wearing this electronic lock in the city, they would report it to the higher-ups, and those who ran out of the slums would be punished.

Cheng Xin also knew this, so she wore long sleeves to block the electronic lock when she went out.

“It’s too eye-catching.”Li Qun turned the electronic lock but found that it couldn’t move at all. “Change it into a bracelet.”

Chen Yuan was stunned—was there a need to change it?

Anyway, this woman was just a canary in a cage and wouldn’t go out at all.

But he didn’t dare to ask further, so he could only answer, “yes.”

“By the way, I’ll stay here to rest tonight,” Li Qun said casually.

…..

Cheng Xin was shocked.

Stay here?

Previously, she was relieved that Li Qun would stay here because she knew that Li Qun really thought of her as a substitute for his own sister.

But what he said in the car made Cheng Xin no longer let down her guard against Li Qun.

Just as Cheng Xin was thinking about how to deal with him tonight, a rapid ringtone sounded.

Li Qun picked up the phone and stood there listening. His face suddenly turned green, like a dark cloud before a storm.

The temperature in the restaurant suddenly dropped to zero.

Everyone lowered their heads.

“Go back to the manor!”

After hanging up the phone, Li Qun growled, turned around, and left without looking back.

Chen Yuan hurriedly followed.

Phew! Luckily he left.

Cheng Xin let out a sigh of relief. Tonight was really too dangerous.

Fortunately, she was bold now. If it was the previous her, she would have probably fainted from fear.

“If the young master had come a few more times, my old life would have been scared to death,” Nanny Rong patted her heart and muttered.

Nanny Shen tidied up the table and sighed indiscernibly. “I guess that old master must have brought the women back. Old Master really, he still plays with women at his age. If it wasn’t for him, young master wouldn’t have become like this.”

“That’s right. Once the young master’s mother left, the master married a new wife. That new wife is the young master’s mother’s half-sister! Isn’t that ridiculous!”

At the mention of Li Qun’s father, both Shen and Rong were indignant.

Li Qun’s mother had also passed away?

Cheng Xin mechanically continued to take the food from Rong. When she thought of Li Qun’s childishness in front of her, she felt a little upset.

But these things had nothing to do with her.

The most important thing now was to leave this place.

Her sixth sense had always been very accurate. She felt that Li Qun already knew something.

Staying any longer was not the way.

Leaving early was the right path.

…..

It was night. The garden was pitch black. Only a computer in the study room was shimmering.

Cheng Xin picked up the Hawthorn water at the side and rubbed her stomach.

Today, she had a barbecue and was forced to eat a whole bowl of rice at home. Her stomach was about to explode.
