"Speak if you want!" Gu Anjin was a bit annoyed.

Her good temper had been honed by Yue Siqing.

But that doesn’t mean she’s patient with everyone.

In her eyes, the difference between relatives, friends, and ordinary people is significant.

Especially when this person’s intent is malicious.

"Angry?" Huo Xun seemed to have discovered something quite amusing, watching her puffed-up face, smiling.

"Boss."

Gu Anjin suddenly felt a pang of unease.

The person who came was the one-eyed man from the last time she was kidnapped.

But now he didn’t have an eye patch on his face; he was well-dressed, looking completely different from the last encounter.

If it weren’t for him speaking suddenly and letting her recognize his voice.

Just by looking at the person, her first reaction wouldn’t be to think of the man in camouflage, wearing an eye patch.

However, there seemed to be a real problem with his eye, though at first glance, it seemed just like any normal person’s.

But upon closer inspection, she noticed something was off.

"Miss Gu, no need to look." He smiled indifferently, pointed to his eye, "This eye of mine, can’t see."

An eye can’t see, that’s a terrifying thing.

Yet he spoke so casually.

"Qin Shi." The one-eyed man chuckled, extended his hand, and reported his name.

Gu Anjin, somehow, reached out her hand.

As if it’s normal social etiquette.

Thankfully, it was just a handshake, and fortunately, they were Easterners.

If it were the Western cheek-to-cheek greeting, she would have definitely refused.

"I apologize for the offense last time." Qin Shi said helplessly, "It was an accident."

"Last time was an accident, what about this time?"

Qin Shi raised his eyebrow, then looked at Huo Xun; the boss was still staring at Gu Anjin’s hand.

He didn’t seem very pleased.

"Boss, what did you say to her? Hey, I was just chatting with that inexperienced smiling kid, really didn’t scare him."

Huo Xun, who originally had a smiling lip, now had some coldness, "Nothing much. If you’re done talking, you can go now, find a few beautiful women to chat with."

"Turns out you two haven’t finished talking." Qin Shi was surprised; it’s been a while, still unclear what they’ve been discussing.

Qin Shi awkwardly left; Huo Xun’s long, alluring eyes swept over Gu Anjin’s face, "Why shake hands with him and not me?"

"What a lunatic!"

"I don’t like this preferential treatment." Huo Xun re-curved his lips, "If you want to know why I’m so confident, we might as well get to know each other again now. Using... Western etiquette."

At this moment, Gu Anjin only wanted to kick him hard a few times and then let him get lost.

But...

"This kind of thing should be you begging to tell me, coming to threaten me. Not the other way around." Gu Anjin said coldly, "Sorry, I don’t want to play these games; I’m going to find Yue Siqing now, and you just wait to die."

"Sure, but I bet you’ll regret it!" His careless voice still made Gu Anjin stop in her tracks.

She was scared because she feared this approach would harm Yue Siqing.

After all, this person seemed to have a vendetta against Yue Siqing.

And the only thing that could be used to threaten her would be Yue Siqing.

What kind of trap did he set up to be so confident?

She should have trusted Yue Siqing, but Huo Xun’s tone made her inexplicably convinced.

Finally, Gu Anjin had no choice but to turn around.

Huo Xun’s sinister smile slowly spread across his lips.
