Chapter 21 We can't keep her any longer.
Musen drove away.

More than half an hour later, Duanzi arrived on his motorcycle to pick up Lu Siqi.

Back at the tattoo shop, they cleaned up together. A while later, Chen Haokai's subordinate, Tan Feng, arrived with several construction workers, threw down a design rendering, and told them to decorate according to the standards shown on it.

Duanzi went over to ask and found out that Kai Ge had paid for the renovation.

It seems that Brother Kai now completely trusts Mu Sen and treats him as one of his own.

After Tan Feng left, the workers started construction. Bai Mier from next door came over to take a look and was extremely envious. "Brother Kai is so good to our Brother Sen. The shop was just smashed last night, and he sent people to renovate it today."

Cui Tian leaned against the door and said sarcastically, "Isn't that right? Our shop serves Brother Kai so well, but we still don't get this kind of treatment. It's incomparable. It's really infuriating to compare people like this."

Duanzi had just bought some cold drinks across the street and was being very attentive when he brought them over: "Here you go, Sister Mi, Sister Tian'er, have some iced tea."

"Thanks, Duanzi." Cui Tian rubbed his chubby face. "Our Duanzi knows how to care for me, unlike Sen Ge! He forgot about his old flame as soon as he found a new love."

"Look at what you're saying, Sweetie." Duanzi said with a silly smile, "My brother Sen has never forgotten you, Sweetie. Every time he asks me to buy fruit, he reminds me not to forget to buy the oranges that you like to eat."

"Really?" Cui Tian glanced at Lin Cuiying deliberately. "It seems I misunderstood Brother Sen. When Brother Sen comes back, I'll have to invite him to my room and catch up with him properly."

Lu Siqi was practicing tattooing under the parasol, so focused that she didn't care what they were talking about. She carefully tattooed a plum blossom pattern on her practice skin with the tattoo pen in her hand, and then held it up to look at it with satisfaction.

Duanzi rushed over and, seeing the tattoo she had completed independently, was incredibly envious: "Cuiying, could you tattoo me sometime? I'll be the perfect practice subject."

Lu Siqi has never tried tattooing on real skin before, but she wants to give it a try. "I'll tattoo you once I've practiced enough."

"Okay! It's settled then." Duanzi was overjoyed.

Cui Tian walked over, looked at the plum blossom tattooed on her, and praised, "You really are Brother Sen's good apprentice, you picked it up so quickly."

Sensing her sarcasm, Lu Siqi ignored her and picked up another practice sheet to begin the second complex pattern.

……

When Mu Sen returned, Lu Siqi was still sitting outside practicing tattooing.

I checked the time; it was already past ten o'clock.

I went over and turned off the power to her tattoo pen.

The power suddenly went out, and Lu Siqi came to her senses. She smelled a strong odor of smoke and alcohol, looked up, and saw that it was him who had returned.

"Have you eaten?" Mu Sen had drunk a bit too much tonight and was walking unsteadily. He held onto the table with both hands and glanced around the store. "Duanzi isn't back yet?"

"Brother Kai sent someone to call him away, saying that the base was short-handed for shipping." After putting away the tattooing tools and the power strip, he noticed that there were a few lipstick marks on the man's collar.

Having drunk too much, Mu Sen felt restless. As he walked into the store, he pulled up his t-shirt, revealing the scratches on his shoulders.

Lu Siqi recognized the scratch marks as those she had made last night, but the lipstick mark... wasn't hers; she didn't have that Barbie pink shade.

Remembering what Cui Tian said, this man would give special care to every woman who had gone astray…

So much so that when the roller shutter door was closed and Mu Sen suddenly pulled her into his arms and kissed her, she instinctively turned her face away to avoid it.

"What do you mean?" Mu Sen pinched her face and turned it around, his expression displeased.

Lu Siqi didn't back down this time and truthfully expressed her true thoughts: "I don't think it's necessary to kiss when you're bed partners." "You're disgusted with me?" Mu Sen licked his back teeth with his tongue. He had drunk too much tonight because he had suppressed too much anger before getting Chen Hai's brother tattooed. Being disgusted by this woman made him angry. "Sometimes I have a special fetish. The more others forbid me from doing something, the more I want to do it."

He tightened his grip, forcefully pinching her chin, and said to her with a fierce look in his eyes, "The more you try to stop me from kissing you, the more I'll kiss you until your legs go weak!"

The thought that his mouth might have just kissed another woman made Lu Siqi clench her teeth, refusing to let his tongue in.

After kissing for about a minute, unable to pry open her teeth, Mu Sen's eyes grew increasingly fierce. He turned around and pushed her in front of the roller shutter door, tearing open her collar with his large hand.

This is the third dress of hers that has been torn.

Lu Siqi clenched her fists tightly in anger.

Seeing her furrowed brows and angry expression, Mu Sen turned her around.

Throughout the entire process, Lu Siqi kept biting the back of her hand, drawing blood, but still didn't utter a single word in response.

Receiving no response, Mu Sen withdrew his hand and turned her around.

Turning her around, I saw blood at the corner of her mouth, and instinctively looked at her hand; red blood was flowing down the back of her hand…

He pinched her face hard, glaring at her with fierce eyes: "You really know how to disgust me!"

……

Mu Sen put on his clothes and left. When he returned a few minutes later, he had an emergency medical kit in his hand.

Lu Siqi didn't know where he got it from, but she saw that it contained not only gauze, scissors, hemostatic agents, and disinfectant cotton, but also other emergency medicines.

"Give me your hand." He took out a disinfectant swab, but seeing that she still wouldn't extend her hand, Mu Sen laughed self-deprecatingly: "What? Do I have to avoid suspicion even when I'm bandaging your wound?"

She coldly refused, "I can handle it myself."

"Still arguing with me, huh?" Mu Sen tossed the disinfectant swab back into the first-aid kit, his eyes filled with sarcasm. "Recognize your place, Lu Siqi. We're just bed partners, I'm not your boyfriend! I have no reason to indulge you!"

"If you still insist on arguing with me, that's fine. We can just end it. We never actually did it, so you won't lose anything."

“I’ve booked your train ticket. You go back to Beicheng tomorrow, and I, Mu Sen, will continue to be my scoundrel in Jianghong.”

This time, Lu Siqi looked up at him.

"Why are you looking at me?" Mu Sen got up and walked to her wardrobe, took out her suitcase and threw it on the ground: "Did you listen to Song Qinian's words today for nothing? Not only do you want to find out the truth, Gu Shi and the others also want the truth. Wasn't your purpose in coming to Jiang Hong to find out whether your father had invested in the casino that Huaxi opened in Bangnan?"

"Anyway, Gu Shi and the others have already investigated again. There's no need for you to get involved in this mess. Go back to Beicheng and continue being your pampered young lady."

Her eyes were already slightly red. "I won't go back. I won't be a deserter."

"So you know the word 'deserter'?" Mu Sen smiled, took out a matchbox from his pocket, and lit a cigarette.

After finishing a cigarette, his anger gradually subsided.

But after calming down, he also realized a problem: his emotions were too easily out of control because of this woman.

It seems we can't keep her any longer.

“It’s fine if you don’t want to go back, but I can’t keep you here any longer.” He stood up, threw his cigarette butt on the ground, and stomped it out. “Pack your things and go to Brother Kai’s place tomorrow. He’s short one person, so you can fill in for him.”
