Rong Yan gathered her fleeting thoughts and, while he turned a page of the document, she interjected, “Li Shengxiao, how did you get here?”
The Rong Family had suddenly shown up, and she apparently hadn’t had time to inform him, so how did he manage to find this place?
Could it be…
Just as a guess emerged in Rong Yan’s mind, the man looking at the documents suddenly closed them, and his deep, inscrutable eagle eyes landed on her. With commanding arrogance he provided the answer, “I installed a GPS system on your phone.”
I installed a GPS system on your phone!
He said it so calmly and casually that Rong Yan silently swallowed back the question she wanted to ask.
She had wanted to ask if he had arranged for someone to keep an eye on her, but he came straight out and told her he had installed a tracking system on her phone.
“…Even though we’re dating now, installing a GPS tracker is a bit too…” She really didn’t know how to describe this behavior.
It seemed like possessiveness was a bit too strong.
Li Shengxiao’s lips formed a straight line as he cut off her words, “I want to be able to appear by your side the moment you need me. Is that not good?”
It didn’t seem bad either… Rong Yan met his unbelievably attractive eyes and it was as though all her words were choked back. She involuntarily acquiesced to his reasoning, “Alright then.”
No sooner had the words left her mouth than Rong Yan annoyed herself so much that she wanted to slap her own face.
It wasn’t alright at all.
He had installed a personal tracking system on her phone without her knowledge, which surely constituted a serious violation of her privacy, right?
How could she become so compliant the moment she looked into Li Shengxiao’s eyes? Now that the words were out, she was too embarrassed to go back on them.
Rong Yan couldn’t help but feel utterly frustrated.
“What did the Rong family want from you when they asked you to go back?” Just as she was brooding, a deep male voice suddenly inquired.
Rong Yan shrugged her shoulders casually and said with ease, “Nothing much, they just wanted me to publicly admit on Weibo that I fabricated that video, and then to go and apologize to the Shi Family and Mr. Shi.”
She spoke as if it didn’t concern her, as though she had anticipated this all along and not a trace of sorrow was evident in her demeanor. However, in Li Shengxiao’s eyes, a raging inferno ignited within his pupils.
Since when did the woman he cherished in the palm of his hand need to apologize to anyone?
“You don’t need to pay attention to them, I’ll handle everything!”
Rong Yan hadn’t planned on dealing with those so-called relatives. The old Rong Yan had died long ago, five years earlier amidst false charges and betrayals, losing trust and finally on a plane flying abroad. She thought her heart had been hardened by countless trials, impervious to any shaking. Yet, hearing him unhesitatingly take her side made a tiny crack in Rong Yan’s steely heart.
Her bright eyes looked up at the man who was so close, her lips pursed as she said, “Li Shengxiao, you really don’t have to protect me like this. I can…”
“You’re my girlfriend, Duidui’s mom, and the woman registered in my household book. Do you think I would just leave you to fend for yourself?”
Li Shengxiao’s gaze stayed firmly on her, his thin lips barely touching each other, “Even if you were all-powerful, I would still be the man standing in front of you! And since you haven’t yet grown into who you want to be, I will stand in front even more, until you reach the pinnacle you desire!”
What she wanted was to make the Rong family take notice, to prove herself in the entertainment industry, to tread Rong Weiwei beneath her feet.
He knew all this, so he didn’t stop her.
If she killed, he would hand her the knife.
If she set a fire, he would pour petrol on it.
That was his way of making her happy..
