Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Just as she turned around, her wrist was grabbed.

Xiao Lang pulled her toward him, her slightly reddened eyes suddenly meeting his gaze.

Xiao Lang gripped her wrist tightly, using a lot of force.

”You aren’t doing well at all!” He stated it as a fact, not as a question.

”...”

”I know you’re with Ruan Tianling now, Yufei. Did he force you? You’re not happy being with him, are you!”

”It’s my own business, and it has nothing to do with you.”

It pained Xiao Lang to see her unhappy.

”Yufei, come to me, I will protect you, I won’t let him hurt you again!”

Jian Yufei looked at him in astonishment. Xiao Lang spoke solemnly, ”Will you let me take care of you, protect you, and prevent you from any harm?”

Jian Yufei held back her emotions, withdrawing her hand from his, she smiled lightly, ”Thank you for your kindness, but I must be going.”

”You can’t leave!” Xiao Lang once again grabbed her hand, ”I know I don’t have the right to ask you to trust me again but this time it’s true, I really can protect you. Yufei, can you trust me one more time?”

”Xiao Lang, there’s been a misunderstanding. I’m not unhappy. Please let go, I need to go back.”

”What I said is true!” the man stubbornly emphasized, ”This time I will not disappoint you, I really can protect you. Yufei, don’t you want to get away from Ruan Tianling?”

Of course, she dreamt of it.

But Ruan Tianling’s power was overwhelming. She was powerless like a defenseless little rabbit in his hands.

Even if her rage consumed her entire being, even if she wanted to kill him, she would always be powerless against him.

Can a little rabbit ever defeat the big bad wolf?

The answer was no, she could never do it.

”Xiao Lang, I know you mean well, but it wouldn’t work out, thank you.” Jian Yufei firmly withdrew her hand and turned to leave.

”Yufei, whether you’re willing or not, I’ll surely help you escape Ruan Tianling, believe in me!”

”...”

She had trusted him once before when she thought that if she married him, she would have a protector who would keep her from harm.

But when he left her at the engagement party without a word, she awoke to the truth. She couldn’t rely on anyone other than herself.

Jian Yufei resolutely walked away, leaving Xiao Lang behind, his eyes clouded as he watched her retreating figure, standing there for a long time without moving.

A luxury sports car stood outside the restaurant.

Jian Yufei opened the car door and got in. Ruan Tianling turned his head, smiling faintly, ”Ten minutes? I thought you two would spend at least an hour together.”

”Just drive.” She wasn’t in the mood for his doscourse.

Ruan Tianling suddenly pulled her close and quickly kissed her lips, ”This is your reward.”

What reward?

Jian Yufei frowned out of habit before letting go of his hand and resettling herself.

Unexpectedly, Ruan Tianling then snatched her handbag and pulled out a small recorder from inside.

Jian Yufei paled at the sight of it.

”Since you distrust me, why did you have me meet him? Ruan Tianling, you’re despicable!”

He placed a hidden recorder in her purse, she found his action incredibly shameless.

Ruan Tianling merely grinned, ”I don’t distrust you.”

”Then what do you mean?”

Good thing she didn’t accept Xiao Lang’s offer, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

A sense of relief washed over Jian Yufei, quickly followed by a surge of anger.
