Taking a small sip of tea, Dongfang Shu's tongue was immediately enveloped by a strong bitterness, and her cheeks were filled with a rich aroma at that moment.
"The fragrance lingers endlessly, it's definitely tea from Yunwu Mountain, isn't it?"
"Haha, as expected from the woman I fancy, just one sip and you can tell where this tea is from!" Qi Tiansheng's smile grew even broader. "It seems you've been doing quite well recently!"
"Thanks to your blessing, Young Master Qi!" Dongfang Shu replied very politely.
"I haven't given you any blessings!" Qi Tiansheng said lightly. "Everything you've achieved is the result of your own efforts!"
Dongfang Shu remained silent.
At this moment, Dongfang Shu had no idea what Qi Tiansheng wanted to say, so she dared not speak recklessly.
Seeing Dongfang Shu silent, Qi Tiansheng gently took a sip of tea and slowly spoke, "I heard from Big Brother Qing Yu that you met a man you like in Jiangzhong City?"
Facing Qi Tiansheng's straight-to-the-point question, Dongfang Shu still didn't know how to respond.
She was quite aware of this man's identity and had heard about his way of doing things!
"You don't have to be so reserved in front of me; I won't eat you!" Qi Tiansheng added once more.
Dongfang Shu gritted her teeth, as if she was taking a plunge, and said heavily, "Young Master Qi, I hope you can fulfill my wish!"
"Looks like Big Brother Qing Yu wasn't lying to me!" Qi Tiansheng did not get angry and remained as gentle as before. "That person is Ye Xunhuan, the Marshal of the underground world, right?"
"Mm!" Dongfang Shu nodded.
"If it's him, he's certainly good enough for you." Qi Tiansheng said earnestly, "A dominant figure, even in my family, no one dares to underestimate his presence."
Dongfang Shu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Qi Tiansheng decided not to get involved in this matter?
"Young Master Qi, do you mean..."
"Shu, I'm someone who values face." Qi Tiansheng said lightly, "I also don't like doing things that break up pairs, which would harm my virtues!"
Dongfang Shu's heart skipped a beat; if Qi Tiansheng hadn't said the preceding words, Dongfang Shu would have definitely thought he intended to let her go, but those preceding words made it clear to Dongfang Shu that Qi Tiansheng had no intention of letting her go.
"Young Master Qi..."
Just as Dongfang Shu began to speak, Qi Tiansheng interrupted, "If you had met him first instead of me, then I would definitely bless you two!"
"But alas, fate tripped us; you met me first, not him, and I was the first to take a liking to you!" Qi Tiansheng spoke mildly. "Now he intercepts and steals what was loved."
"Shu, do you know the few things a man cannot tolerate in this life?"
"I don't know."
"Having a green hat on one's head!" said Qi Tiansheng, pointing to his own head. "Killing one's father and stealing one's wife are the most intolerable things for a man."
"Although you are not my wife now, you are the woman I have proclaimed, and you are certainly aware of this in your heart. Furthermore, when you wanted to leave the Dongfang family, it was I who helped you, including Meng Qi; if not for me, he might already be dead, right?"
"Young Master Qi..."
"Now Ye Xunhuan has snatched you away, and you want me to fulfill your wish." Qi Tiansheng said calmly, "If I fulfill it, would I still have my face?"
"I can lose face for one act of kindness, but what about the Qi family?"
With that, Qi Tiansheng sighed slightly and said sincerely, "Shu, it's not that I don't want to grant your wish, it's that I can't!"
For a moment, Dongfang Shu didn't know what to say.
In the next moment, Qi Tiansheng took another sip of tea, "A lot of people know about this matter, and I really can't fulfill your wish. I hope you can understand my predicament!"
"Young Master Qi, I can go with you, but I want to ask you to promise me one thing first?"
"Let's hear it first!"
"I want Wu Lanqin dead!" Dongfang Shu said heavily, "And Dongfang Jinbao, Dongfang Mingkun as well!"
Qi Tiansheng smiled bitterly and shook his head helplessly, "Shu, I know about your matters too, and I can understand why you want them dead!"
"To be honest with you, I can't possibly help you with that." Qi Tiansheng said candidly, "Both of them hold significant positions in the Dongfang family, and killing them would have serious consequences!"
"Thank you, Young Master Qi, for your honesty!"
No matter what, Qi Tiansheng didn't deceive Dongfang Shu, and she was already very grateful to him for that.
"So, did Ye Xunhuan promise to do these things for you?" Qi Tiansheng changed the subject and asked softly.
"No!" Dongfang Shu shook her head.
"I thought he promised you those things!" Qi Tiansheng said lightly, "Turns out he didn't, so why do you still want me to fulfill your wish?"
"By staying with him, I have hope; by staying with you, there's almost no hope."
"It seems you are gambling your future." Qi Tiansheng sighed slightly, "Although it's very desperate, it is indeed worth it for you."
Saying that, Qi Tiansheng's tone suddenly changed, "However, I still cannot grant your wish, and I will not force you into anything either."
"Young Master Qi, you..."
"I believe, as long as Ye Xunhuan is dead, then you will have no reason and no desire to stay here!" Qi Tiansheng said lightly, "Oh, today I've also arranged to meet Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi!"
Dongfang Shu was taken aback, "Young Master Qi, you..."
"How to say, he has taken you away. I don't know if he has taken your body, but your heart has indeed gone. I have to see what kind of person he really is, right?" Qi Tiansheng spoke lightly, "Also, I heard that his wife is also a great beauty; I'm eager to meet her too!"
"We might as well talk about this matter and see how his wife responds."
Dongfang Shu's face immediately turned unsightly. This Qi Tiansheng really wasn't harboring any good intentions, having invited Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi together.
"Young Master Qi, are you so sure they will come?"
"They will!" Qi Tiansheng said confidently, "I had someone tell him that you are in my hands, and if he doesn't come, I'll collect your body!"
"I told his wife that I wanted to have a good talk about the relationship between her husband and my woman; do you think they can refuse?"
As Qi Tiansheng spoke, the corners of his mouth curved into a slight smile.
And Dongfang Shu's slightly powdered face turned completely dark, as if water could drip from it.
Seemingly genteel Qi Tiansheng was actually a ravenous wolf, one that devours people and leaves no bones behind.
