Become a stepmother and save the male protagonist of the painful literary school

Li Li knew that Tong Ruixiao was very good at Sanda, but when he practiced with others in the past, he always stopped at the required level.

He is elegant and gentle, and can be called a gentleman.

In all these years as his assistant, I have never seen him do anything himself. Most of the time in the business world, he would assign someone else to handle it or have someone else do it.

When I suddenly saw it today, I felt it was too cruel and a little hard to believe.

Cruel and violent.

It can be said to be almost cold-blooded.

Li Li always thought that he knew this person well enough, but he didn't expect that he was still far from it.

What I see of Tong Ruixiao on a daily basis is just the tip of the iceberg.

He appears to be gentle and refined on the surface, but he actually hides a tyrannical nature in his bones. It's just that he usually suppresses it so well that it isn't exposed. If his bottom line is crossed, he will become a completely different person when he turns hostile.

Not to be messed with.

……

The charity dinner has already begun.

The banquet was hosted by a charity organization, which raised funds after a simple speech process.

After the fund-raising was completed, everyone took their partners to the dance floor to dance.

The melodious sound of piano came from one side of the dance floor, soothing and smooth, and was the best accompaniment.

Meng Jiangshu did not accept other people's invitations to go to the venue. Instead, she brought the famous wine, asked the waiter to place appropriate snacks on the table, and sat on the sofa with Jian Yan to watch others dance.

When she poured the wine for Jian Yan, she accidentally caught a glimpse of the red mark on the side of his neck, which she clearly didn't see when she came today.

It was only after Yanyan came back from communicating with Tong Ruixiao.

She discovered the secret.

Whether there was any affection between them in the marriage was another matter, but as for whether there was any contact, Jian Yan lied to her.

Obviously there is.

There's already a kiss mark, how can it be wrong?

Meng Jiangshu shook her red wine glass and thought: Yes, a marriage of convenience is still a marriage, we can't always sleep in separate rooms. We are all adults, so contact is inevitable. I'll just treat it as a way of getting rid of it.

If Jian Yan heard what she was thinking, he would definitely refute it.

She and Tong Ruixiao have been sleeping in separate rooms since their wedding night and have not developed any in-depth relationship.

"This incident has taught me a lesson. I have to be more secretive when I go out to play next time, especially when I bring you along. I should be extra careful. The one at your house is not easy to fool."

Jian Yan held her forehead and smiled bitterly. She thought Meng Jiangshu would say that she would not take her with her to the club in the future, but she didn't expect her to say something shocking.

As expected, it’s President Meng.

"Tong Ruixiao is a very strange person. He takes this kind of thing very seriously. I should cut down on my entertainment activities."

As she spoke, the words he said, "I want to kill him, and you too," came to her mind, and she couldn't help but shudder.

Tong Ruixiao spent a long time abroad when he was young. He is used to carrying guns and can use different types of guns.

Xiao Mu had said before that his shooting skills and accuracy were excellent.

Whenever there was a hunting event organized by the wealthy families, Tong Ruixiao always won the first place. Even with the lowest-quality hunting rifle, he could still achieve great results.

So…she should just focus on the mission.

It is better to avoid going to places of luxury and enjoyment such as brothels, otherwise you never know when you will be shot.

"Are you still afraid of him?"

Meng Jiangshu laughed at her for not having the courage to pursue excitement.

"Well, I'm afraid of dying without an intact body." Jian Yan said half-jokingly.

"Boss Tong has a decent temper. Although he may not be easy to mess with, he won't be violent, right?"

Meng Jiangshu admitted that Tong Ruixiao was indeed a slick old fox who was good at planning and strategizing in the business world, and no one could get the upper hand from him.

But privately, she felt that no matter how angry and furious he was, he would not want to let Jane Yan die without a complete body. That was too scary.

After all, his marriage to Jian Yan is intertwined with interests. If anything really happens to Jian Yan, the Jian family will be the first one who will not let him go.

So no matter how you look at it, there is nothing to be afraid of.

"I can't tell you."

Jian Yan just smiled and didn't continue talking.

Tong Ruixiao saw where the two were and walked over.

Meng Jiangshu went up to him and exchanged simple pleasantries with him.

Then he tactfully called his assistant and went to the dance floor together.

Since Yanyan said she had already solved it, I should trust her and not stay there like a superfluous person.

Jian Yan: "Have you finished talking to Jiuxiang?"

Although she was smiling, she felt vaguely uneasy.

"The chat is over."

In contrast, Tong Ruixiao's expression was calmer and more relaxed. Looking at her tense expression, I held her hand on the table.

He pressed his thumb on the back of her hand, placed his four fingers underneath, and lifted her hand. It was a very gentle and pious way of holding hands.

As if casually saying, "They are all dancing, let's go and dance too."

The warmth from her palm made her heart skip a beat.

She stood up and followed him to the dance floor. The sound of her footsteps intertwined with the sound of the piano, and the music covered up her pounding heart.

Like everyone else on the scene, they danced the upper-society social dance, which had many categories, but the nobles had to learn it since childhood, so they were very adept at it.

Neither of them spoke as they danced to the lively melody; it seemed that they enjoyed dancing more than talking.

When doing a slow dance, there is plenty of room for conversation, and the music creates a private space for everyone, where only the two dancers can hear what each other is saying.

"Why do you smell like him?"

Jian Yan placed her hand on his and raised her eyes to look at him.

Tong Ruixiao: "The perfume he wore was too strong, and it might have smelled on my clothes while we were chatting."

"is it?"

She only said these two words and said no more.

The smell she was referring to was the smell of blood.

Jian Yan was very sensitive to the smell of blood, so what she smelled could not be wrong.

When she was in her own world, she would hurt herself in the bathroom when she had a mental breakdown, so the bathroom was always filled with a sharp smell of rust mixed with sweet and fishy smell, a smell she would never be able to get rid of in her life.

In the past, when Xiao Mu was injured in a fight, even if he was wearing tight clothes to cover the wound, she could still smell it when she got close.

If you have never been stained with blood or stayed around blood for a period of time, it would be impossible to have such a bloody smell.

Tong Ruixiao and Jiuxiang are not just chatting.

After a long while, Jian Yan finally said:

"Is he still alive?"

This made Tong Ruixiao's body stiffen for a moment, and his eyes trembled, as if he was seen through from the inside out.

Those violent and extreme emotions were stirring, giving rise to a trace of fear and excitement, as if he was afraid and looking forward to her seeing his true face. In the end, he suppressed it with all his strength.

His voice was slightly hoarse, "...Of course."

"I won't break my promise to you."

"it is good."

Jian Yan nodded and didn't pursue the matter any further.

He must have done something very guilty for her to see through him at a glance.

But as long as people are alive, nothing else matters.

She didn't care what Tong Ruixiao did, because it was his business and had nothing to do with her.

As long as it doesn't harm his own interests, he can do whatever he wants.

After a few dances, the charity auction began.

Tong Ruixiao felt uneasy when he saw that she remained silent. Her silence was more offensive than any words.

He tried to speak several times, but found that her eyes were never on him.

After trying to speak many times but holding back, he finally asked in a low voice: "Are you angry?"
