Before Ryan could speak, Xu Qinghuan refused outright.

"I have nothing to say to you."

"So you want them to hear your past stories?"

As expected, Xu Qinghuan stiffened for a moment after Zhou Size said this.

He guessed that Xu Qinghuan definitely hadn't mentioned her past with Fu Yan to anyone. As for why, he didn't know, but she must have her reasons for hiding it, enough to threaten her into obeying.

"What are you talking about?" Ryan was a little confused, looking at Xu Qinghuan and then at Zhou Size.

The latter laughed and said, "You don't know, this Miss Xu was previously with—"

"Enough!" Xu Qinghuan suddenly interrupted sharply, looking up at Zhou Size. "I can listen to you, go talk over there."

Zhou Size, having achieved his goal, gave an OK sign. "Ryan, you go and wait for me! Don't worry, I'll definitely bring her back for dinner."

"..."

Ryan looked at Xu Qinghuan, and seeing that she had no objection, he could only nod, "Alright, I'll wait for you."

After watching him turn and walk into the restaurant until he disappeared from sight, Xu Qinghuan said coldly, "Mr. Zhou, I remember I have no grudge against you, right? When the Fu family and Xia Wanyu wanted me to leave Fu Yan, I did it. What are you threatening me for now?"

Zhou Sze touched the cigarette pack in his pocket, lit one, and said, "Of course I'm curious about how you got involved with Ryan!"

The word "搭上" (dāshàng) is quite subtle.

It's hard not to associate it with something unpleasant.

Xu Qinghuan clenched her fist, her nails digging deep into her flesh. "He and I have a proper boss-subordinate relationship. If you think there's a problem, then you can have him fire me! If Mr. Zhou just came up here to humiliate me, then please tell me quickly, I still have work to do."

Zhou Size took a drag of his cigarette and smirked, "Why would I humiliate you? I'm just curious how you managed to make Yan Shi so devoted to you, and then also win Ryan's favor! In the end, you married some nobody. Was that some kind of ploy to get me? Xu Qinghuan, what exactly is your purpose in reappearing?"

All he can think of now is that Xu Qinghuan is coming back for revenge!

Despite her obedient behavior back then, and the fact that she didn't pursue the cause of her mother's death after leaving Fu Yan, Zhou Sze always felt that Xu Qinghuan wasn't so easily dismissed! She agreed to the conditions without asking for money or profit, so she must be planning to make a comeback someday!

"So what are you afraid of, standing here questioning me now?"

Xu Qinghuan didn't answer, but instead threw the question back at her.

That's right, what is he afraid of? And what are the Fu family and Xia Wanyu afraid of?

If you haven't done anything wrong, and if you're truly innocent, then why are you afraid of appearing in China?

"..." Zhou Sze never expected that Xu Qinghuan, a few years later, would have learned to be quick-witted and sharp-tongued, delivering a fatal blow that left him speechless.

"I know you are Fu Yanshi's good friend, and I know you hope that Fu Yanshi can be with Xia Wanyu, but none of that matters to me now! As for your question, I can only tell you clearly that my goal is not to go back to Fu Yanshi's side."

Zhou Size's cigarette ash fell to the ground, nearly burning his hand.

He narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing the woman before him. "Did you know about his marriage?"

"know."

"Not even a little bit moved?"

"No."
