After she finished speaking and saw Song Yi still standing there in a daze, she grabbed his arm, ready to leave.

That movement stabbed Yue Siqing almost instantly, like a sharp pain.

The vein on his forehead seemed to start throbbing along with it.

He pressed his lips into a tight line and spoke in an icy voice, "Perfect, we were just thinking of finding a place to have a drink too. Why don’t we all go together."

"What?" Sheng Wei’s face changed abruptly.

Yue Siqing’s abnormal behavior was way too obvious; he still felt something very different for this woman.

That indescribable jealousy in her heart kept spreading as she stared at Gu Anjin’s back, forcing her expression to stay rigid.

"Let’s go." Yue Siqing didn’t seem to consider anyone else’s attitude at all and had already followed after them.

Hearing his voice, Gu Anjin stopped and looked at him in surprise. What exactly was he trying to do?

"Then... let’s go together." Song Yi quickly smiled, looked at Yue Siqing and said, "I’ve already booked a table at Clear River Waterside Pavilion."

"Mm." Yue Siqing tossed out the single syllable and had already walked out the door.

Gu Anjin and Song Yi went out through the back door. Yue Siqing’s slightly off attitude made her clearly feel that he was in a bad mood.

At a time like this, one wrong move and you’re just pouring fuel on the fire.

She wasn’t afraid of Yue Siqing, but she knew very well how scared the people around him were of him.

Once his face darkened, it was more terrifying than anything.

Senior Song Yi was an outsider; better for him to have as little contact with Yue Siqing as possible.

Just let Yue Siqing’s temper be aimed at Sheng Wei alone.

With that decided, Gu Anjin quickly got into Song Yi’s car. "Brother Siqing, see you at Clear River Waterside Pavilion then."

Song Yi’s car had a dedicated driver, with a bodyguard sitting in the front passenger seat.

Gu Anjin knew that if she wasn’t quick enough, she would definitely be told to ride in Yue Siqing’s car.

"Let’s go."

Song Yi nodded at Yue Siqing, and the car slowly pulled away.

Yue Siqing still didn’t speak, but the oppressive air around him was extremely intense.

Carefully, Sheng Wei asked, "Mr. Yue, are we still going?"

He didn’t answer either, just yanked the car door open.

Sheng Wei had no choice but to quickly sit in the front passenger seat.

If he wanted to watch with his own eyes, then let him watch.

No matter what was going on between them, this was her chance.

Best if, in one go, they’d never have a chance to make up again.

"Your brother cares about you a lot?" Song Yi’s handsome face curled into a smile. "He’s so afraid you’ll run into danger at night that he’s wary of me too, huh."

"Yeah, he cares about me a lot." Gu Anjin shrugged. "Senior Song Yi, his temper’s not that great. He’s been a CEO for too long, always ordering people around. Don’t take it to heart."

"How could I? It’s obvious that this Mr. Yue isn’t some ordinary person." Song Yi glanced out the rear window, and sure enough, a luxury car had followed behind. "He’s probably... not your biological brother, right?"

She shook her head. "No, but he and my real brother are good friends. My brother’s in Manchester, so when I’m in London, it’s Brother Siqing and Brother Arthur who look after me."

"I remember Arthur." Song Yi thought back; there really were a lot of outstanding men around her.

"Mm, Brother Arthur and I grew up together. They both count as my elder brothers and treat me very well."

It was just that she had never regarded Yue Siqing as an older brother.

Song Yi chuckled. "If he’s not your real brother, then he really is being a bit too controlling."

"It’s actually because of some special circumstances." Gu Anjin explained, "I ran into some danger not long ago, so he’s been extra worried recently. If anything happens to me, he wouldn’t be able to answer to my family, or to my grandpa."
