Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 141 I did it willingly

Finally, she asked. Fortunately, Nanwu had already prepared her response. After all, the other party was Xiao Shen, and he couldn't be fooled with just a few words. How could she do it without making sufficient preparations?

Nan Wu gathered her emotions, "Fourth Master, this really isn't my fault. I remember telling you before that I had a misunderstanding with Qian Ke'er's brother, Qian Xingjie, at that party. You know, if he took a liking to me, I couldn't just do *that*, could I? I don't know how Qian Ke'er found out. Maybe she misunderstood me, and that's why..."

She talked for a long time, but Xiao Shen didn't react at all. But that's okay, she still had something to add.

"Also, you know my stepsister, Jiang Rourou, right? It's quite a coincidence, but somehow she got entangled with Qian Xingjie, and Qian Ke'er took her anger out on me. Fourth Master, their affairs really have nothing to do with me; I'm innocent..."

Nan Wu learned about Jiang Rourou and Qian Xingjie's affair from Mu Sha.

She was so shocked that she almost stuffed two steamed buns into her mouth.

No matter how much I thought about it, I never expected that these two people who were completely unrelated would get together. Jiang Rourou is really capable. First Xiao Jiayang, then Qian Xingjie. Her goal is clear: she won't hook up with anyone who isn't from a wealthy family.

That's fine, at least she didn't go looking for trouble with good people.

At this point, Xiao Shen finally reacted. He didn't move his head, but raised his eyes. "Jiang Rourou and Qian Xingjie?" "Yes, apart from these two things, I really can't think of anything else that could make Qian Ke'er so vehemently opposed to me. Fortunately, Fourth Master, your men arrived in time. I, Nan Wu, will never forget Fourth Master's great kindness!" In the end, Nan Wu didn't forget to say something nice to coax him.

After bandaging the wound, the man pressed down hard as if punishing the man, saying, "You were captured by Qian Ke'er, and you still won't tell the truth, is that it?"

Ouch...it hurts!

"If my men hadn't arrived in time, you wouldn't even have had a chance to cry out in pain!" Xiao Shen liked to add ice to his water, and soon a layer of fog covered the glass wall. He stood with his back to the island platform, his broad and straight back blocking out most of the light.

When he's silent, he's often more terrifying than when she's being scolded or hit. It always feels like there's a dark cloud hanging over him, ready to explode at any moment.

If even he stops helping her, she will be powerless to resist if Qian Ke'er causes trouble again.

Thinking of this, Nan Wu took a few steps forward. "Fourth Master, what I said is true. There's really no need for me to lie to you. Besides, I don't have the guts..."

Xiao Shen suddenly turned around and grabbed her by the neck. Although he had a smile on his lips, the smile didn't reach his eyes. "You don't have the guts? Nan Wu, I think you're quite bold. You even dare to provoke someone as ruthless as Qian Ke'er. Let me tell you, in the entire Ning City, besides me, no one else can save you from her. So, I'm giving you one last chance. Why is Qian Ke'er your enemy? Think carefully before you speak!"

Nan Wu staggered backward step by step, finally bracing her hands on the edge of the sofa. She tried to scratch and hit the large hand on her neck, but she was too weak, and the large hand only tightened its grip.

"Speak!" Xiao Shen urged impatiently.

"I...I said...it's all true, I didn't...I didn't lie to Fourth Master..."

As oxygen was gradually deprived, Nanwu felt herself about to faint, her eyes rolled back, and her cheeks flushed red.

She wasn't sure if Xiao Shen knew her true identity. She was gambling; she was going to die either way, so she might as well take a chance and at least have a glimmer of hope.

Xiao Shen narrowed his eyes, and just as Nan Wu was about to lose consciousness, he loosened his grip and threw her onto the sofa.

Suddenly given oxygen, Nan Wu gasped for breath, her breathing becoming convulsive. Because it was so rapid, she couldn't help but cough, coughing until tears welled up in her eyes. She braced herself on the sofa with both hands, and it took a while for her complexion to return to normal.

"Fourth Master..." Nan Wu looked down at the man in front of her, tears welling up in her eyes.

The man leaned down and gently patted her face a few times. "Nan Wu, your life is yours. Whether you cherish it or not, you should think it over carefully!"

I'd like to see when you'll tell me the truth.

Xiao Shen left, and no one knew where he went. Nan Wu was caught in a dilemma: should she leave or stay? The man's anger hadn't subsided, and she couldn't leave with peace of mind. Perhaps she should try to appease him?
She needs to be comforted; only when he returns to normal will she have a chance to live.

Nan Wu learned from the bodyguard that Xiao Shen had gone to the swimming pool. Without saying a word, she immediately went upstairs to find him.

Xiao Shen's arms were incredibly long, like a dragon darting through the water. His movements were skillful and professional. Nan Wu watched for a while, then suddenly jumped into the pool with a splash.

Because she couldn't swim, she almost instinctively started struggling. Soon, someone grabbed her waist from behind. Nan Wu seemed to have grasped a lifeline, and her limbs instinctively clung to the man like an octopus.

Their two bodies were perfectly joined, yet remained hot and alluring in the icy pool water.

Xiao Shen's eyes swirled with lust. He lowered his eyelashes and glanced at her with a half-smile. "Trying to outsmart me?"

Nan Wu was soaked through, and her shapely figure was clearly visible beneath her clothes, exuding a powerful allure.

Xiao Shen's Adam's apple bobbed as he suppressed the heat in his stomach. "Nan Wu, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"

Nan Wu gently bit her lower lip, her eyes drooping, her expression a mix of tenderness and coquettishness, "Fourth Master, it was my own choice..."

The man curled his lips into a playful smile. "Alright, then I'll grant your wish!"

A splash of water rose from the pool...

On the way back, Nan Wu was forced into the car and raped again.

She was truly impressed by this man; he had boundless energy and stamina. Anyone who married him would never be able to go to work.

Suddenly she jolted awake.

Xiao Shen frowned, gripped her chin with his thumb and forefinger, and turned it around. "What are you thinking about?"

"You didn't close the window!"

Xiao Shen understood, rubbing the delicate skin with his fingertips, and smiled playfully, "Afraid of being photographed?"

Nanwu wanted to reply to him: Nonsense.

But what good is her fear? This man doesn't care at all; he does what he wants.

When Qian Ke'er rushed back, the scene had already been cleaned up.

"What happened? Who did this?" she roared at the crowd.

Qian Xingjie touched the tip of his nose without saying a word. Mu Sha glanced at him and stepped forward. "There are seven or eight of them in total, each with exceptional skills. Our people are no match for them. They look unfamiliar; I've never seen them before. But I've already sent people to investigate!"

Qian Ke'er raised her high heel and kicked her subordinate hard. "Useless trash! What use are you to me?"

The others shrank back in fear.

"Miss Ke'er, what do we do now? Should we go to the Xiao family to arrest them?" Mu Sha asked.

Qian Ke'er bit her lip and pondered for a while. "No, that would cause me to fall out with Brother Shen. He finally developed feelings for me. I can't let a bitch ruin everything!"
