On your wedding night, stay with your godbrother; the Empress is practically throwing herself at you

Inside the living room.

The air instantly became quiet.

Liu Fuyao bit her lip, but her heart was pounding.

You're not calling me brother-in-law anymore?

What should we call it then?

Does that also mean...?

Does that mean a certain ethical constraint is gone?

"Then...then should I call you Brother Lu Chuan?"

Liu Fuyao tentatively called out.

Lu Chuan hummed in agreement.

Liu Fuyao quickly lowered her head and ate her noodles, it was unclear what she was thinking.

After a while, seeing that Lu Chuan had almost finished eating, she put down her chopsticks and whispered again,

"that……"

"Brother Lu Chuan, I have a favor to ask you."

"What is it?"

Lu Chuan put down the bowl.

"Our college is having a dance tomorrow night..."

Liu Fuyao twisted her fingers, her voice barely audible.

"I think……"

"I'd like to invite you to be my dance partner."

Lu Chuan frowned, instinctively wanting to refuse.

He's currently focused on making money, cultivating his skills, and raising this monkey; he has no time to attend any college dances.

Therefore, Lu Chuan directly refused.

"I don't have time, I don't dance."

"But……"

Liu Fuyao immediately became anxious, her eyes turning red.

"But if I don't bring a dance partner, that school bully Zhang Yang will keep bothering me."

"He's a six-star martial artist. Relying on his family's wealth and power, he acts arrogantly and domineeringly at school, and he's trying to force me to be his girlfriend."

"If I reject him, he'll definitely bully me..."

"Brother Lu Chuan, please help me."

"You're the only one I can rely on. If you don't help me, I really won't be able to do anything..."

As she spoke, she actually reached out and gently tugged at Lu Chuan's sleeve.

Those big, watery eyes were full of pleading.

A stunningly beautiful young woman was acting coquettishly.

Who the hell can handle this?

Looking at her pitiful appearance, Lu Chuan's mind was once again filled with the image of that arrogant and domineering rich second-generation.

Liu Fuyao is such a well-behaved girl.

It would be quite dangerous to get entangled with that kind of scum.

After all, she is Liu Ruyan's younger sister.

Although he had divorced Liu Ruyan, the girl had always been good to him, and he couldn't just stand by and watch her die.

"Alright."

Lu Chuan thought for a moment and then said,

"What time tomorrow?"

"yeah!"

"Very good!"

Upon hearing Lu Chuan's agreement, Liu Fuyao was overjoyed and jumped up excitedly.

It was an impulsive act.

She leaned over and hugged Lu Chuan's face, planting a quick kiss on his cheek.

"Thank you, Brother Lu Chuan! You're the best!"

This time.

Both of them froze.

Lu Chuan felt a soft touch on his cheek, carrying a sweet fragrance unique to young girls, and the warm touch made his whole body go numb.

My sister-in-law.

What are they doing?

At the same time, Liu Fuyao reacted instantly.

Her delicate, pretty face instantly turned as red as a ripe apple, and her mind went completely blank.

"what!"

"I……"

"I'm stuffed!"

She hurriedly got up.

She didn't even bother to clear away the dishes; she covered her face and ran away.

"that……"

I'll message you tomorrow; I'm heading back now!

boom!

The door was slammed shut.

The living room fell silent instantly.

Only Lu Chuan remained sitting at the dining table.

Subconsciously, he touched the still-wet hickeys on his cheek, staring at the empty doorway, unable to come to his senses for a long time.

This girl...

That's incredibly audacious.

……

into the night.

Lu Chuan did not go to the bedroom.

The little monkey's condition is still unstable. Although it has been fed milk and has some vital energy to sustain its life, an accident could happen at any time.

He simply sat cross-legged on the bed in the guest room, practicing the "Reversed Blood and Remnant Life Technique" while watching over the little monkey.

Every three hours.

He would wake up on time and give the little monkey a boost of his inner energy.

Nourished by the true energy, the little monkey's breathing became stronger and stronger, and its originally bluish-purple skin gradually turned rosy.

……

upstairs.

Liu Fuyao's bedroom.

Liu Fuyao wrapped herself in the quilt, feeling burning hot all over, as hot as a shrimp.

Now, all she has to do is close her eyes.

My mind was filled with the moment I kissed Lu Chuan that night.

That touch, that feeling of my heart racing...

I couldn't help but silently shout in my heart,

"Ahhhhh!"

"Liu Fuyao, are you crazy? How dare you kiss him?"

"He's your brother-in-law!!!"

Can……

He used to be her brother-in-law, and she could only bury her feelings deep in her heart, feeling guilty even if she looked at him for too long.

But now...

Now my brother-in-law wants to divorce my sister, right?

"Brother Lu Chuan..."

She murmured those three words softly under the covers, a smile involuntarily creeping onto her lips.

He won't let me call him brother-in-law anymore.

Does this mean that he's slowly accepting me?

Even if they only see me as a younger sister, that's a good start!

Thinking about the dance tomorrow?

Liu Fuyao suddenly felt a sense of anticipation.

What should I wear tomorrow?

What should I wear?

……

Just as Liu Fuyao was planning what to wear to the ball the next night.

The next room.

Her sister, Liu Ruyan, was also lying in bed.

However, her mood was completely opposite.

Liu Ruyan's eyes were red and swollen, clearly from crying, and she was staring blankly at the ceiling.

A cell phone was lying next to it.

On the phone.

It was her chat history with Lu Chuan, the last message still marked with that glaring red exclamation mark.

Why...?

"Why?"

Liu Ruyan muttered to herself.

Tears, uncontrollably streaming down my cheeks and into my ears, were icy cold.

"I've already humbled myself, I've already begged you, why are you still so heartless?"

You weren't like this before.

"You used to be so reluctant to even raise your voice to me."

"Is it because I'm not gentle enough?"

"Is it because I didn't swallow all my grievances like Su Yan did?"

She remembered Su Yan's humble appearance on the hospital bed, and Lu Chuan's indifferent gaze in the car.

He was completely consumed by her.

One of them treated her like dirt.

……

at the same time.

An abandoned quarry on the outskirts of the southern city.

Several law enforcement vehicles with flashing red and blue lights were parked beside the pile of rubble, their blinding searchlights illuminating the surroundings as bright as day.

Several uniformed law enforcement officers are setting up a cordon.

"team leader!"

"Found it!"

One of the team members suddenly turned around and shouted, pointing to the bottomless, waterlogged mine pit.

"It's right here."

The massive salvage machine slowly rose.

With the sound of rushing water, a badly damaged black sedan was lifted out.

And inside the car.

The two bodies were completely disfigured.

One of them, in particular, had a horrific palm print sunken into his chest, and his head was almost completely dismembered; his death was extremely tragic.

Zhao Gang, the captain of the enforcement team, stepped forward and, wearing gloves, examined the items on the body.

"The badge of a three-star martial artist."

Zhao Gang's eyes narrowed.

"This is……"

"Old Black, the 'Black Hand'?"

"This guy had several lives on his hands, and we never caught him. I never expected him to die here."
