The aloof beauty always has weak legs; the crazy boss is too ruthless.

Chapter 12 Killing two birds with one stone

After more than 20 minutes.

Unharmed, Mu Sen led Lu Siqi out of the private room.

In the private room behind them, the once arrogant Liu Zi was now kneeling like a grandson, his face covered in blood, apologizing to Brother Hai: "Brother Hai, I won't do it again, Brother Hai! Please give me a chance! I'll never do it again, Brother Hai!"

The door was suddenly slammed shut from the inside, followed by a scream from Liu Zi.

Lu Siqi stared at the man in front of her in disbelief, feeling as if he were a complete mystery: "You and Hai-ge? You two..."

Mu Sen licked his back teeth with the tip of his tongue and gave her a playful smile, "You think I've been wasting my time in Jianghong for the past six months?"

After leaving Zunhuang, Mu Sen got into the beat-up Santana, lit a cigarette, and told her about Hai Ge's journey from being penniless to Jianghong County, then joining Huaxi Group to commit fraud, and rising through the ranks to become a senior executive.

Hai Ge had fled to Jiang Hong with his wife because he owed gambling debts. However, he had no money or power. A few thugs took advantage of his absence while he was out looking for work and came to bully his wife. His wife refused to submit and jumped to her death.

From then on, his wife's death became a knot in Hai Ge's heart.

"You did this on purpose?" Lu Siqi suddenly realized, "You deliberately provoked Liu Zi so that he would say those things to provoke Hai Ge inside! To remind Hai Ge of the time his wife was bullied. Are you using someone else to do your dirty work? Using Hai Ge to get rid of Liu Zi, who has a grudge against you?"

“You’re only half right.” Mu Sen took a drag of his cigarette, his eyes full of smugness. “Brother Kai also hates this Liu Zi to no end, but Liu Zi is a member of Huaxi Group, so no matter how much he hates him, he has to treat him well.”

"For the past six months, Kai has always wanted me to get some blood on my hands."

"Tonight I have blood on my hands, and I even got rid of Liu Zi, whom he hated the most, with the help of Brother Hai. He will definitely trust me more in the future."

Kill two birds with one stone —

Lu Siqi admired the man's strategy even more.

Especially after a while, he heard Kai call him and say that Hai wanted to treat the two of them to a meal.

He successfully attracted Hai Ge's attention again by using the "wife-protecting persona".

It was past 1 a.m. when the dinner with Hai Ge finally ended.

Mu Sen, swaying slightly, put his arm around Lu Siqi and waved goodbye to Hai Ge and Kai Ge.

After getting in the car, Lu Siqi sat in the driver's seat, while Mu Sen, who had been drinking, sat in the passenger seat.

After leaving the Zunhuang Club, Mu Sen suddenly told her to stop the car: "Pull over to the side of the road."

Thinking he had drunk too much and had an upset stomach, she slowed down and pulled over to the side of the road.

Lu Siqi had just parked the car.

Mu Sen leaned down, grabbed her chin, turned her face towards him, and bit down hard on her neck!

It was so sudden that Lu Siqi didn't even have time to dodge.

After regaining her senses, she raised her hand to push Mu Sen's shoulder, but no matter how hard she pushed, the man didn't budge. Instead, Mu Sen sucked harder on her neck.

Seeing her breathing heavily and her face flushed, Mu Sen grabbed her chin hard and stared at her intently: "If I hadn't stopped you at Zunhuang today, would you have gone to serve that Liu Zi? You think you're so capable, Lu Siqi? Just because you're pretty and have learned a little bit of coquetry, you think you can fool the people at Zunhuang with your little tricks?"

Knowing he was truly angry, Lu Siqi began to explain, "I just..."

Mu Sen immediately interrupted her: "Just what? Who do you take Liu Zi for? He only gets women after he's been given sugar! Do you know what kind of sugar? Sugar with meth!"

Remembering that the woman Hai Ge carried into the darkroom had become like that after eating "candy," Lu Siqi instantly realized that she had been too reckless in making her decision. "I'm sorry, I won't act on my own without your permission anymore."

"You still want a future?" He chuckled as he sat back down, opened the car door, got out, lit a cigarette, and took a few puffs.

Mu Sen originally smoked to calm his anger, but the more he smoked, the more the fire in his heart burned; especially when he thought that if he hadn't stopped this woman tonight, with her stubborn nature, she really would have given herself to that disgusting Liu Zi!
He threw the unfinished cigarette on the ground, walked around the front of the car to the driver's side, opened the door, and pulled her out of the car.

Seeing that he was sitting in the driver's seat, Lu Siqi immediately stopped him: "You've been drinking, you can't drive."

“I’m a hooligan now! Have you ever seen a hooligan who obeys the law?” Mu Sen glanced at her contemptuously: “If you don’t want to get in the car, just stay here. Anyway, there are a lot of drunks coming out of Zunhuang. You’re pretty, so they won’t mind giving you a ride.”

Lu Siqi immediately walked around the front of the car and sat in the passenger seat.

Seeing that she was so obedient, Mu Sen stepped on the gas with a smile in his eyes and accelerated the car to its maximum speed.

The car was going too fast, and Lu Siqi gripped the seatbelt tightly in fear, keeping her eyes closed the entire time.

A few minutes later, the car suddenly stopped. I thought we had arrived at a tattoo shop, but when I opened my eyes, I was greeted by an endless expanse of rapeseed flowers.

At the end of February, the rapeseed flowers in Jianghong County were in full bloom; a bright, full moon, like a lamp, illuminated the flower field.

Having barely left the house since arriving here, and being her first time in Bangnan, Lu Siqi had never seen such a large field of rapeseed flowers before.

"Don't be fooled by the beautiful scenery before you," Mu Sen reminded her as she got out of the car.

After Lu Siqi got out of the car, he grabbed her hand.

"I'll show you the ugliest side of this beautiful scenery." Mu Sen grabbed her hand and pulled her into the rapeseed field.

The rapeseed flowers grew up to waist height. As soon as she stepped inside, Lu Siqi felt a little scared and instinctively gripped his hand tightly.

Mu Sen laughed at her: "You're not afraid to fly a plane, but you're afraid to go down to the fields?"

She wanted to say: It's not that I'm afraid to go to the fields, it's that I'm afraid to come to a place like this with you, Mu Sen, in the middle of the night.

Pulled along by Mu Sen for about 50 meters, the yellow rapeseed flowers were replaced by a large patch of green plants. Under the moonlight, Lu Siqi could see the shape of their leaves up close, and her pupils widened instantly: "Poppies?"

Poppies typically bloom from April to June and bear fruit from June to August; this means that planting so many rapeseed flowers is intended to provide cover for these poppies...

I looked around in disbelief; the poppies, not yet in bloom, stretched as far as the eye could see.

The fact that this person dared to plant so boldly shows how powerful they are.
