Nian Qingyou shudders. An Chuxia was about to say, "I know him" when she hears Qilu's loud declaration. "Chuxia is my girlfriend and I won't let anyone hurt her."

Girl… Girlfriend? The corners of her mouth twitch on their own volition. Suddenly, the surrounding air drops. It is like they entered an air-conditioned room. No, it's Han Qilu chilling the air. It is rather scary….

"Right?" Han Qilu flashes a fake smile at Chuxia. Nian Qingyou shoots her a helpless look. He gently raises an eyebrow and asks, "Chuxia, is he your boyfriend?"

Nian Qingyou turns and looks at her earnestly. The first time he saw her, he decided to pursue her. Unfortunately, all he got was frustration. She kept dodging him and refusing his advances.

With trembling lips, she says through clenched teeth, "Han Qilu, consider this finished… ."

"You… know him?" Nian Qingyou's Adam's apple bobs. A bad premonition spreads through his heart. He looks at Han Qilu when she doesn't answer. In return, Qilu flashes him a faint smile.

"Chuxia." Han Qilu's rich, magnetic voice gently summons her. She has to snap out of her stupor as she focuses on Qilu, and then, Nian Qingyou. Clearly, there's tension between them and she's peris.h.i.+ng… .

This can't be! Life is too precious. How can one easily die? She must find a way to save it, right? A light bulb goes off in her brain. This is the only way.

She doesn't wait for Han Qilu to start speaking. An Chuxia claps Nian Qingyou's shoulder and pa.s.ses him by. She stands at Han Qilu's side and smiles. "He is my… fiancé."

She says fiancé lightly, but its meaning floats directly into Nian Qingyou's heart. Shame slowly spreads through him.

Qilu smiles at her. He thinks she's finally gone mad. He hooks his index finger and gently taps her on the nose as he looks at her favorably. "You always stir up trouble for me everywhere."

His tease makes her blush. Han Qilu laughs jokingly and looks at Nian Qingyou. His right hand pulls Chuxia to his bosom before saying, "I know my fiancée is very likable. But she's my person and I won't allow other men to touch her."

The air around them is volatile. Although Nian Qingyou thinks there's room for him to talk, he withholds his thoughts. Han Qilu is a dangerous man. He may sound calm and gentle, but he can strike shock and fear. He can tell from his mocking he's an untouchable.

Nian Qingyou's worried reaction satisfies Qilu. Once again, he smirks. "Since you were An Chuxia's former cla.s.smate, I'll overlook your actions."

Qingyou smiles awkwardly as her responds with a trembling voice, "Bless you… I have a matter to attend. I shall take my leave." He doesn't wait for Han Qilu to respond before leaving leaving their line of sight.

"I'm very satisfied with your performance." Han Qilu looks at her lightly. "Next time, I will remember to introduce myself with those three syllables: fi-an-cé."

He releases his grip on her shoulder before walking to the car with the smile on his lips. Chuxia, on the other hand, knits her brows. She was sad to see Nian Qingyou look so pitiful since he used to bully her. She shakes her head before sighing heavily.

He suddenly frowns when he sees her sad face. He sticks his head out of the window and asks, "What's wrong?"

She doesn't feel right! Plastering a stiff smile, she opens the car door. Qilu, doubting her emotions, eyes her suspiciously. "I want to sleep in the back seat. I'm really not hungry for lunch. Wake me up when we get to our destination."

Of course, she's referring to bowling. Qilu, taut with anger, doesn't speak. He is about to start the engine when he hears a rapping on the driver side window. He rolls down the window and sees the clinic doctor. He takes the money from his pocket and hands it over. "Master Han, here's your change."

Chuxia wants to say to the doctor that Han Qilu won't miss the money if he takes it. But then, Tang Kayi is standing next to the doctor and is staring at them. "Is this car yours?"

At this point, Qilu is livid. Not only does he feel belittled by having his money returned to him, but now, Tang Kayu asks something so absurd. An Chuxia sighs and asks Buddha to bless her.

Qilu doesn't speak. He shoots Tang Kayi a frosty glare.

"Do you really want to marry An Chuxia?" Tang Kayi asks. Apparently, she doesn’t see her lying in the back seat. "She really didn't force you to say, "I'm her fiancé", right?"

An Chuxia is starting to see red. Is she that violent? She wants to break Tang Kayi's right arm so badly… Why is she so good at finding trouble? She didn't have to compel Qilu to say anything. He said the words on his own accord!

"Is she violent?" Han Qilu asks before starting the engine. Despite the cold stare, he's relaxed his guard.

She sees the change in Han Qilu's face and grins. "Far more than violent! When she studied here, everyone called her behind her back Baojun Langjie! Once, I made her look away from her book and she used the book to smack my face! So if you're still keen on marrying her, take this into consideration."

Tang Kayi dances with joy as she realizes Qilu is listening to her slander. However, he intentionally looks at the car's rear view mirror to look at Chuxia's darkened features… Inexplicably, his mood lifts.

Baojun Langjie… He has a name for this Stein tyrant… .

"Thank you for the reminder. I will consider it." Han Qilu turns his head and looks at the doctor with a smile. "Consider the money as a tip." He revs the engine after Tang Kayi bends over to whisper into Han Qilu's ear. Then she stands up, covers her mouth, and shyly leaves.
