[GB] Boss Ruan, your husband doesn't want you anymore.

Ruan Qian'an said with a pale face, "Of course I didn't mean that."

He chuckled and continued, "However, I thought you would be very happy to do that."

Huo Jingmo was annoyed to see Ruan Qian'an still acting arrogantly even when she was lying on the ground, and he stepped on Ruan Qian'an's wound with even more force.

Ruan Qian'an tightened her grip on Huo Jingmo's ankle suddenly, letting out a muffled groan.

When Chen Siqi pushed open the door, the scene he saw was Huo Jingmo standing on his boss's shoulder, which was bleeding profusely. The boss was pale, his eyes were slightly closed, and he looked weak. The scene was chaotic.

Chen Siqi stormed in, furious, and shoved Huo Jingmo aside.

Chen Siqi glared fiercely at Huo Jingmo.

Huo Jingmo was caught off guard and was pushed to the ground. His hand landed on the broken glass, and he gasped in pain.

Chen Siqi held Ruan Qian'an in his arms. Ruan Qian'an's lips were completely bloodless as she glanced at Chi Xiao standing outside the door.

It wasn't until Chi Xiao nodded at her that Ruan Qian'an finally collapsed and fainted.

Chen Siqi looked at the unconscious Ruan Qian'an, gently shook her body, bit his lip and whispered, "Boss."

Chen Siqi looked at Huo Jingmo with tears in his eyes: "You're courting death!"

He glanced at Chi Xiao, not daring to go too far, and closed his eyes to suppress his anger: "How dare you hurt the boss!"

Huo Jingmo frowned as he stared at the unconscious Ruan Qian'an, unable to believe that she would fall into a coma so easily.

But the sensation of the bottle being inserted into my body just now felt incredibly real.

Chen Siqi picked up the unconscious Ruan Qian'an.

Huo Jingmo looked at Ruan Qian'an, who was almost unconscious and being held by Chen Siqi, and said sarcastically, "I wonder what kind of show this is putting on now."

Unable to contain his anger, Chen Siqi roared at Huo Jingmo, "She..."

"No, the boss has already been injured so badly by you, and you're still making sarcastic remarks. If it weren't for the boss protecting you, do you think you could still be here safely?!"

Huo Jingmo's body stiffened slightly, and he snorted coldly, "You overestimate yourself."

Chen Siqi walked to the door and brushed past Chi Xiao: "Is this how you protect the boss?"

The reflection in Chi Xiao's glasses made it impossible to see his eyes clearly.

Chi Xiao walked into the private room, looked at Huo Jingmo, and called out to the people outside, "Someone come here."

Huo Jingmo narrowed his eyes.

Chi Xiao said to the two people who came in, "Take them away."

Huo Jingmo was held down like a prisoner and led outside.

Huo Jingmo gritted his teeth, glared fiercely at Chi Xiao, and struggled to say, "Let me go!"

Chi Xiao squatted down, looking at the bloodstains inside, and murmured, "Boss, why did you do this?"

Once most of the people had left, the group escorted the manager toward the private room where Chi Xiao was.

Chi Xiao waved his hand, dismissing the men who were holding the manager, leaving only the manager and Chi Xiao in the private room.

Chi Xiao said to the manager, "You know what to say to Lan Meng, right?"

Chi Xiao sat down, while the manager stood: "I know."

Chi Xiao, toying with his fork, said, "Make today's situation as serious as it gets. It would be best to say they've become bitter enemies, understand?"

Chi Xiao stuck a fork into the rotten fruit and said, "If this act by the boss were to fall to the ground, do you know how serious the consequences would be?"

The manager nodded: "Understood. So many people saw this, I just need to report the facts."

Chi Xiao chuckled: "It's certainly convenient to do things with smart people."

"However, I hope you know what shouldn't be said."

The manager nodded hurriedly, saying, "Although I am a member of Lanmeng, I still need your mercy to survive, sir."

Chi Xiao's eyes flashed coldly. He stood up, walked to the manager's side, and patted the manager's shoulder with an imposing air, saying, "It still depends on what you do, doesn't it?"

The manager looked down at the fork stuck in the fruit, juice oozing out like bloodstains. He wiped the sweat from his face and said, "Yes, yes."

Chi Xiao walked outside: "If you do a good job, you'll naturally get your share of the benefits."

Chen Siqi was clearly impatient and said to Chi Xiao with a look of annoyance, "Where have you been? Why have you been gone for so long?" He acted like a superior.

Chi Xiao didn't pay attention to Chen Siqi's tone, only assuming that he was so agitated because he was too worried about his boss.

Chixiao: "I went to take care of something."

Chen Siqi's face darkened for a moment before he asked, "What do you mean?"

Chi Xiao opened his mouth, then smiled and said, "It's a secret."

A fleeting chill crossed Chen Siqi's eyes, followed by a light laugh: "When did you become like Kun?"

Chixiao said, "Really? I don't think so."

Chen Siqi slightly stepped aside to let Chi Xiao get into the car: "Let's go."

While the car was moving, Chen Siqi suddenly spoke up: "Are you suspecting me of being the traitor, which is why you haven't told me anything?"

Chi Xiao pushed up his glasses and said, "No matter what happens in Dark City, it won't affect you."

"So you're overthinking it. The boss hasn't doubted anyone."

Chen Siqi: "I can't fathom what the boss is thinking."

Chen Siqi glanced at Huo Jingmo.

Huo Jingmo leaned back in his seat with his arms crossed, closing his eyes to rest. His palms were covered in blood and flesh, caused by Chen Siqi's shoving earlier.

Chi Xiao removed the shards of glass from Huo Jingmo's hand and said, "Do you think what Boss did to Huo Jingmo was love?"

Chen Siqi looked at Chi Xiao with confusion and said, "What do you mean?"

Chi Xiao glanced at Chen Siqi with complicated emotions.

Chen Siqi: "You mean the boss didn't really..."

Chi Xiao interrupted in time: "I can't think of anything else besides this."

Chen Siqi: "What you said makes sense."

Chi Xiao was bandaging Huo Jingmo's wounds, and he could feel Huo Jingmo's fingers trembling.

Their words were as if they were humiliating Huo Jingmo.

Chi Xiao glanced at Huo Jingmo indifferently, then thoughtfully looked away.

Chen Siqi looked at Ruan Qian'an's unusually weak face, gently stroked it with his fingers, and wiped away the sweat from her face: "This is fine too."

After bandaging Huo Jingmo's wound, Chi Xiao sat back down and asked, "Why are you back?"

Chen Siqi: "I heard that the boss was seriously injured, so I came back."

Chi Xiao nodded: "Have you taken care of everything at the company?"

Chen Siqi: "Hmm."

"I heard that Dark City is in chaos, and Yan Ling can't return to protect Boss. I thought I could help Boss here too."

Chi Xiao chuckled and said, "Does the boss need your protection? It's good enough if you don't hold him back."

Chen Siqi chuckled and said, "Are you saying that having you as a hindrance is enough?"

Chi Xiao remained noncommittal: "Hmm, at least I'm more useful than you."

Chen Siqi: "Be poor."

Huo Jingmo frowned as he looked at the scenery outside, but his eyes kept glancing at Ruan Qian'an. He closed his eyes. What was this?

Chen Siqi turned his gaze to Huo Jingmo and said, "Mr. Huo."

Huo Jingmo turned around and looked at him: "I don't deserve to be called Mr. Huo by you."

Chen Siqi: "I was just anxious because I saw that the boss was injured, so I was rude just now."

Huo Jingmo chuckled softly, "It's nothing."

"Even if I'm just unlucky to have met you guys."
