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

The room reeked of disinfectant; this was destined to be a sleepless night.

It wasn't until the sky was just beginning to lighten that Chi Xiao emerged from the inner side of the study.

He took off his mask and looked at Chen Siqi, who had been keeping watch in the study, and said, "You're still here?"

Chen Siqi: "What do you mean by that? Where else could I be if not here?"

Chi Xiao threw the mask into the trash can and said, "That's not what I meant. I meant if the boss sees you later, he'll punish you again."

"Don't go looking for trouble during such a sensitive time."

The atmosphere was somewhat tense.

Chen Siqi stood up from the sofa and said, "I understand."

Chen Siqi keenly sensed the deeper meaning in Chi Xiao's words: "Did the boss suspect you?"

Chi Xiao glanced helplessly at Chen Siqi, nodded, and said, "How did you figure that out?"

Chen Siqi sighed and said, "Even you are being suspected. It seems I really made a mistake coming here."

Chi Xiao looked at Chen Siqi, who still didn't want to leave even after all this, and said, "The most important thing now is for you to go back."

Chen Siqi lowered his head, somewhat frustrated: "I hate this feeling of powerlessness."

Chi Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly: "Your idea is dangerous. I won't tell the boss. You should leave now."

Chen Siqi realized that he had revealed his true intention to seize power.

"I see."

Ruan Qian'an, lying on the bed, asked Chi Xiao beside her, "Is everything ready?"

Chi Xiao stood to the side and said, "We're ready. This way, we can protect Huo Jingmo to the greatest extent possible."

Ruan Qian'an opened her eyes and felt a stinging pain. She tried hard to see the ceiling clearly and thought about what to do next.

Chi Xiao: "Boss, this will only make Huo Jingmo hate you even more. Is it really worth it?"

Ruan Qian'an: "That time, it was as if Chen Jue took a bullet for Huo Jingmo. They were clearly targeting Huo Jingmo, so how else could they protect him?"

Chi Xiao nodded

Hesitantly, he said to Ruan Qian'an, "Boss, you must recover from this injury, otherwise your body will have serious problems."

Ruan Qian'an felt extremely angry when she thought about how Huo Jingmo had almost been hurt: "I know what I'm doing."

It was unusually cold outside.

Ever since Huo Jingmo started having those nightmares, he hasn't had a good night's sleep.

He didn't want to stay in this quiet environment any longer, so he sat on the bed with his knees wrapped around his waist, looking at the sky outside that was about to darken again.

His phone screen lit up briefly, and he grabbed his clothes and went outside.

But she was stopped at the door. Yueyou asked casually, "Where are you going?"

Huo Jingmo glanced at Yue You suspiciously. This person always had a stern face and would not ask such nonsense unless necessary: ​​"None of your business! Get out of the way."

Yueyou didn't move aside. She thought Huo Jingmo still wanted to go to the bar to persuade him: "You should stay put and not run around anymore. The situation is already troublesome enough. Don't go to the bar and cause trouble for the boss."

Huo Jingmo wasn't going to a bar, but he had no obligation to tell anyone where he was going: "Do I need to report to you where I want to go?"

Huo Jingmo: "If you don't leave, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Yue You remained unmoved, clearly not taking Huo Jingmo's provocations seriously.

Huo Jingmo had finally managed to make contact with the people from the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs, so naturally he wouldn't miss the opportunity because of Yue You.

So he didn't hesitate to make a move. Yueyou had been watching Huo Jingmo's every move closely before he made a move, and she blocked it when he did.

She was struggling to block the attack. If she could, Yueyou could kill Huo Jingmo in the next instant, but she couldn't, so the fight was extremely difficult.

The two fought back and forth, and Huo Jingmo struck Yue You on the shoulder with a palm, forcing Yue You to retreat.

Yueyou gripped the door frame with one hand, preventing herself from stepping back, and then refused to take another step back.

Huo Jingmo: "Do I have to beat you down before you'll let me out?"

After saying this, Huo Jingmo's attacks became even more ferocious.

Yueyou's hair was disheveled, and she was clearly struggling to defend herself. When Huo Jingmo struck Yueyou with his elbow, he obviously wanted to knock her unconscious.

But a pair of hands pressed down from behind, and a voice as demonic as that in my dream rang out: "What are you doing?"

Huo Jingmo was stunned, his breathing became disordered, and his hand movements became unsteady, making him easily controlled.

He turned around in alarm and saw Ruan Qian'an looking completely innocent.

Looking at the unharmed Ruan Qian'an, Huo Jingmo asked uncertainly, "Your injuries are healed?... "

The injury healed in just one night. Although I knew Ruan Qian'an was extraordinary, this was truly miraculous.

Ruan Qian'an smiled and didn't directly answer Huo Jingmo's question, but instead asked him, "What are you doing?"

Huo Jingmo heard the coldness in Ruan Qian'an's words and turned his face away, refusing to meet her gaze: "Let me go!"

Yueyou released her grip on the door frame, stood up straight, and said to Ruan Qian'an, "Boss, Mr. Huo wants to go to a bar."

Ruan Qian'an naturally didn't let go of Huo Jingmo's hand: "Is it really as she said?" Ruan Qian'an asked Huo Jingmo.

Huo Jingmo naturally couldn't reveal that he went out to meet someone from the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs.

He forcefully broke free from Ruan Qian'an's grasp and said to her, "So what if we go?"

As he was about to step out, he failed to notice the unusual aura emanating from Ruan Qian'an.

In the next instant, he felt a tightness in his scalp.

Ruan Qian'an grabbed Huo Jingmo's hair and pulled it sharply backward, whispering in his ear, "The person who injured me just wanted to go to that place?"

Huo Jingmo tilted his head back, raised his hand and grabbed Ruan Qian'an's hand, trying to break free.

He roared at Ruan Qian'an, "What's wrong with you! You have no right to tell me where I go!"

With a forceful effort, he broke free from Ruan Qian'an's grasp.

The two stood facing each other, Huo Jingmo glaring fiercely at Ruan Qian'an.

Ruan Qian'an suddenly moved closer to Huo Jingmo, looked him up and down, reached out her hand to his body, and got so close that her lips almost touched his.

"Huo Jingmo, do you think he'll let something like what happened yesterday happen again?"

Huo Jingmo gritted his teeth, knowing he couldn't beat Ruan Qian'an, so he tried to explain to her: "I'm not going to that place."

Ruan Qian'an raised an eyebrow: "When did you learn to lie?"

Huo Jingmo: "You're absolutely unreasonable!"

Seeing that he wouldn't listen to explanations, and looking at the door that was so close, he was about to step out without thinking.

Ruan Qian'an slammed her hand on the door frame: "You've really gone too far."

Huo Jingmo slapped Ruan Qian'an's hand away, and Ruan Qian'an, caught off guard, was actually knocked away.

Ruan Qian'an: "Are you in such a hurry to see someone else?"

Huo Jingmo remained silent, looking at Ruan Qian'an with a stubborn expression. He then conveyed to Ruan Qian'an with his eyes that he was determined to leave.

Although Ruan Qian'an couldn't see clearly, she could still sense it.

Ruan Qian'an stepped out of the room and came to Huo Jingmo.

Huo Jingmo thought Ruan Qian'an was going to attack him, so he attacked Ruan Qian'an without saying a word.

Ruan Qian'an dodged the attack, leaped into the air, landed on Huo Jingmo's shoulder, and fell backward, using the wall beside her to kick Huo Jingmo in the back.

Huo Jingmo was kicked to the ground and fell right into the room. He quickly rolled over to steady himself.

Ruan Qian'an landed and met Huo Jingmo's gaze. Ruan Qian'an looked down at Huo Jingmo.

He then squatted down to look him in the eye, grabbed his hands and handcuffed them. Huo Jingmo stared wide-eyed at the handcuffed bracelets.

“I didn’t want to do this, but you just wouldn’t listen to me.”

Huo Jingmo's body trembled violently. He remembered the words from that nightmare: "This is the consequence of your disobedience."

Huo Jingmo struggled with bloodshot eyes, and Ruan Qian'an tied Huo Jingmo's hands behind his back and handcuffed his other hand as well.

Ruan Qian'an pushed Huo Jingmo to the ground and said, "Don't struggle, or you'll only hurt yourself."
