Zhou Ruotang felt a little goosebump on her back for some reason, but when she thought of what Xia Yuyan had just said, she became excited again, "Brother, we know the whereabouts of Qin Sisi."

Zhou Muchuan suddenly increased the force of the pen in his hand, almost piercing through the white paper. He looked at Zhou Ruotang with gloomy eyes, "Where is it?"

"Room 17, 03th Floor, Chengde Apartment, Zhenhua Road," Zhou Ruotang said quickly, "Xia Yuyan just called me and told me that Qin Sisi has been living with Wu Zhendong, and that apartment is Wu Zhendong's private property."

"Xia Yuyan? If she doesn't hate you to death, why would she take the initiative to tell you about this?" Zhou Muchuan looked at her suspiciously.

Zhou Ruotang thought about it, "Maybe she still wants to repair her relationship with Wu Zhendong? If Qin Sisi is with Wu Zhendong, she will be in her way."

Zhou Muchuan glanced at her and said, "Not bad, not too stupid."

After a pause, he added, "I know about this matter. You can leave first."

Zhou Ruotang was stunned for a moment, "Brother, aren't you going to catch that woman now? She is much worse than Xu Yansang. No matter what, Xu Yansang would never dare to jump on your head before the divorce, right? But Qin Sisi..."

Zhou Muchuan interrupted her, with a hint of warning in his tone, "I'll let you go out first."

Qin Sisi's body stiffened, she nodded with some fear, and turned to leave.

The moment the study door was closed, Zhou Muchuan could no longer control himself and smashed the pen against the wall!

He had a violent expression, his hands on the table, gritting his teeth, "I'm not dead yet, how dare you go and live with another man?!"

"Bitch! Why didn't I see that you were such a fickle woman?"

"Do you think I can't do anything to you just because you're connected to the Wu family? No matter how powerful the Wu family is, they won't cause a scandal over a married woman!"

"Sisi, wait for me," Zhou Muchuan said with a cruel smile, "Wait for me to pick you up. As a family, we must be together."

In Wu Zhendong's apartment.

The afternoon ended awkwardly for the two of them, and Qin Sisi took great pains to cook a few dishes herself in the evening.

Wu Zhendong answered a call and looked at her guiltily, "Sisi, something happened at the company, I have to go there right away, I'm sorry... I'm going to waste your kindness."

Qin Sisi was stunned for a moment, feeling a little uncomfortable. In the past, no matter what he did, he would always put her first, but now, he would be called away for any little thing in the company...

She bit her lip lightly, her eyes showing deep reluctance, and said in a low voice, "Okay... Then go and get busy, Senior Wu, I wish you all the best in your career, family, and everything in the future."

At the end, her voice was choked with sobs and her eyes were red, but she smiled at him as if nothing had happened.

Wu Zhendong noticed her strangeness at a glance, and coupled with what she said, his heart tightened, and he quickly asked, "Sisi, why did you say such a thing, are you...are you planning to leave?"

Qin Sisi's tears fell without warning, then she shook her head gently, trying to hold back her sobs, and said with a bitter smile, "I've been bothering you here for long enough. What's the matter between us? Before, I was greedy, greedy for the warmth you gave me, and I was reluctant to leave like this, but today when Miss Xia came over, I suddenly sobered up. I can't delay you any longer. You are a good man, and with me by your side, you can never accept another woman without scruples. Senior Wu, you have done me a favor, and I have done you a favor... I just hope everything is fine for you."

Wu Zhendong's eyes trembled, and his eyes turned red. He hugged her in his arms distressedly, "Sisi, I'm not afraid of being delayed by you. I just want to take care of you. You don't know how happy I am that you can give me this opportunity to take care of you."

His voice was choked with sobs, and one could tell that he was feeling genuine emotions. Qin Sisi finally felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart. She was still as charming as before.

Senior Wu still loves her.

She raised her head with emotion, tears falling like pearls. Her hands gently grasped Wu Zhendong's clothes, as if she had made up her mind, "Senior Wu, if you are willing, I am willing to be with you. I like you, and I want...I want to be your wife."

Wu Zhendong's body stiffened. He looked at Qin Sisi with affection in his eyes, but his lips moved without responding to her words.

He just called out in confusion, "Sisi..."

Qin Sisi's heart sank and she had a bad premonition.

These days she has been hesitating in front of Wu Zhendong, but he never gave her a definite explanation. Until today, after seeing Xia Yuyan, she couldn't bear it anymore. She was too afraid that Wu Zhendong would be taken away by someone else.

This man is her only bargaining chip now. She must hold on to him tightly and never let other women take advantage of the situation.

So she cooked today and dressed up specially to break the window paper with Wu Zhendong. She thought that Wu Zhendong would be ecstatic with her response, but she didn't expect him to react like this.

Did he not love her anymore? If he didn't love her, why would he look at her in such pain?

Qin Sisi gritted her teeth, pushed him away resolutely, took a step back, and smiled miserably, "Senior Wu, you don't have to say anything, I understand what you mean, it's me who has some other thoughts, I'm sorry, I won't force it, and it will make things even more difficult for you, I'll leave now."

As she said this, she turned around and started to pack her luggage.

Wu Zhendong grabbed her hand, in great pain, "Sisi, don't go, I can't bear to leave you..."

Qin Sisi was shocked all over, and after a while she turned to look at him and said in a hoarse voice, "Senior Wu, what on earth do you want to do? You know that I treat you... I thought you treat me the same... But since you don't like me, why don't you let me go?"

She held back her tears, turned away her eyes, and whispered, "I'm not an ignorant person, and I don't want to get into an unclear relationship. You should understand me. I have always been innocent, cheerful and generous. If you don't love me, I won't pester you. Let me go."

Wu Zhendong couldn't bear it any longer, and hugged her in his arms, holding her tightly, as if he wanted to rub her into his body.

At this point, he could only tell the truth.

"Sisi, I'm sorry, I can't marry you, nor can I give you an open relationship recognized by the world," he tightened his big hands on Qin Sisi's back, closed his eyes, and painfully told the truth, "My family doesn't allow it. The Wu family has been in the army for three generations. I can't ignore my family for the sake of my children's personal love. I'm too greedy. Sisi, I'm sorry, I delayed you..."

After hearing this, Qin Sisi wanted to curse.

You knew you couldn't marry me, so why did you mess with me? I was ready to divorce Zhou Muchuan and marry you, but you told me you couldn't leave your family behind?

Then why bother pretending to be so affectionate and disgusting?

She gritted her teeth, her body trembling slightly, took a deep breath, and laughed sarcastically, "So that's how it is... I understand..."

She pushed Wu Zhendong away and turned her back to him. "In this case, we can't waste each other's time. You're going to marry someone else in the future. You keep me by your side. Do you want me to be your mistress?"

Wu Zhendong quickly explained, "Sisi, I didn't mean that..."

Qin Sisi shook her head and smiled bitterly, "I won't be a mistress. This is unfair to you, unfair to me, and even more unfair to your future wife. There is no future between us, so it's better to end it early."

There was a glimmer of struggle in Wu Zhendong's eyes. He really wanted to choose her regardless of everything, but the fact was that the idea planted in his heart since childhood did not allow him to do so.

Maybe Sisi was right, ending it was the best option for them.

After a long while, he spoke in great pain, "Okay, but before that, let me protect you for the last period of time. The Zhou family's affairs have not been resolved yet. At least wait until you get divorced, I will settle you down, and then I will break up with you. Otherwise, how can you, a weak woman, survive?"

Qin Sisi's body stiffened.

She was trying to retreat by advancing, wanting to force Wu Zhendong, but she didn't expect that he actually agreed?

His so-called love is so cheap?

He also settled her down. Did she want him to settle her down? She wanted to marry into the Wu family and become Mrs. Wu!

She bit her lip and said something deliberately angry, "How can I live? It has nothing to do with you in the future."

Wu Zhendong hugged her from behind, "Sisi, don't say such things, my heart is broken..."

Qin Sisi sneered in her heart. After all, in his heart, she could be abandoned, but his family and his status were what he had to protect to the end no matter what.

But she couldn't give up just like that. She couldn't go back to the Zhou family, and she didn't want to see that lunatic Zhou Muchuan again. Her only hope now was Wu Zhendong, and she had to hold on to him tightly.

Just as he was about to speak again, there was a knock on the door, and a strange man's voice sounded sternly, "Is anyone home? Open the door!"

Qin Sisi shrank back in fear, and Wu Zhendong held her tightly in his arms. He whispered to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, it's okay, I'll go take a look."

Qin Sisi nodded anxiously, looking at Wu Zhendong's back. She hoped that he was a member of the Wu family. If the Wu family knew that there was something unclear between him and her, they would definitely reprimand him severely and force him to send her away.

That would push him towards you instead.

As Qin Sisi was expecting, Wu Zhendong opened the door.

Unexpectedly, there were several policemen at the door. After showing their ID, the police said, "Wu Zhendong, right? We received a report that you are suspected of trafficking women. Here is a search warrant. Open the door, we want to go in and search!"

Wu Zhendong asked in confusion, "Me? Trafficking women? Is that a mistake? I didn't do that."

The policeman pushed him in and saw Qin Sisi at a glance, and asked, "Who is this?"

Wu Zhendong said quickly, "We know each other, this is me..."

Before he could even utter the word "friend", he was interrupted by Qin Sisi.

Qin Sisi also smiled shyly, "Comrade police, you really made a mistake. He and I are boyfriend and girlfriend living together. How could he be suspected of trafficking women?"

The policemen looked at each other and no one spoke.

At the same time, a figure outside the door slowly approached and came to Qin Sisi step by step.

"When did my wife become Mr. Wu's live-in girlfriend?"

Qin Sisi looked at the man in front of her in horror and took a step back in fear.

How could it be Zhou Muchuan? How did he find this place?

Zhou Muchuan had a gentle smile on his face, like a couple in love. He reached out his hand to Qin Sisi and said softly, "I know he lied to you. You don't want to do that, do you? Sisi, come here."

Qin Sisi's heart was pounding, and she was sweating from nervousness. She had been tortured to death by Zhou Muchuan some time ago, so how could she not know his true face? He was just a lunatic!

Gentle and elegant, handsome and rich, they were all superficial! He was like a demon hiding in the dark, who could take her life just by liking her!

Qin Sisi was terrified and subconsciously hid behind Wu Zhendong.

Then Zhou Muchuan suddenly reached out, grabbed her arm, pulled her to his side, and asked with a smile, "What did he do to you? I came, but you are still reluctant to let him go. Sisi, you hurt my heart so much."

His eyes were so gentle and affectionate, his voice was so soft and sweet, but with his two hands, one was openly grasping her arm, and the other was holding a dagger tightly against her waist!

As he spoke, the dagger slowly moved forward and pierced her flesh.

"Ah..." Qin Sisi groaned in pain.

The next second she swallowed her cry of pain, because Zhou Muchuan whispered in her ear in the most gentle voice, "Come back with me, your brother and your parents are waiting for you."

Qin Sisi's body shook, a hint of struggle flashed in her eyes, and she looked at Wu Zhendong in despair.

Zhou Muchuan had captured her parents and her brother, and their lives were in danger at any time... But even if she went back with Zhou Muchuan, would he let them go? It would only be one more life...

But if Wu Zhendong could find a way to keep her, and then find an opportunity for Wu Zhendong to rescue her family, there would still be a glimmer of hope...

With Zhou Muchuan holding a knife against her, she didn't dare say anything and could only look at Wu Zhendong with a pair of pleading eyes.

Wu Zhendong looked at the imprisoned Qin Sisi, and felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. A heroic spirit rose from his heart. He took a step forward and looked at Zhou Muchuan, and said coldly,

"Let her go!"

Zhou Muchuan smiled playfully, "Mr. Wu, please clarify your identity. Sisi is my wife. You have imprisoned her here for half a month. I have been looking for her like crazy. You are now a suspect of trafficking in women. Aren't you too arrogant to treat me like this in front of the police?"

Wu Zhendong's pupils shrank. No matter how dumb he was, he understood that Zhou Muchuan had set a trap for him. Qin Sisi was Zhou Muchuan's wife, but he had hidden her here for half a month. Although he believed that the police would clear his name after the investigation,... if this matter became a big deal, it would bring endless shame to the family.

He is the son of a military family, and he cannot ignore these things.

Perhaps, letting Zhou Muchuan take Qin Sisi away quietly is the best option.

but……

He looked at Qin Sisi's tearful face reluctantly, his heart aching.

Just then, his cell phone rang. It was his father calling.

As soon as he picked up the phone, he heard Wu Xuejiu's furious voice, "You are simply making a fuss! The Wu family is full of loyal and brave people, and has never been tainted by the slightest stain. But you, for one, were photographed with that woman in intimate photos, and now you are hiding her with you. She is someone's wife, don't you know? Because of you, your grandfather was called in for a talk, and you have brought shame to the Wu family! Send that woman away! Before it's too late!"

After a moment, Wu Zhendong hung up the phone with a pale face.
