Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1375: Chapter 1375: He Is Not Your Enemy

Mo Lan rolled to the ground, screaming shrilly, her body already covered in wounds...

...

On the way back, Qi Ruisen maintained a dark expression throughout the journey.

He said nothing, sitting like a statue, the chill emanating from him freezing the air in the entire car.

Jian Yufei did not know what was wrong with him, but she also did not ask anything.

His issues were his own—if he wanted to talk, he would; otherwise, she had no place to meddle...

Halfway through the ride, Qi Ruisen’s phone rang, receiving a text message.

He hurriedly opened it, and upon reading the contents, a fierce light burst from his pupils.

Qi Ruisen had always given Jian Yufei the impression of being a gentlemanly and gentle person.

This side of him was truly terrifying...

”Stop the car!” Qi Ruisen ordered coldly, and the driver pulled over to the side of the road.

They had reached the outskirts, and besides grasslands, there was barely a sign of human life on both sides of the highway.

Qi Ruisen stepped out of the car, marched to the center of the grassland, drew his handgun, and fired several shots at a tree trunk in anger—

The gunshots were loud, stirring the birds in the woods.

Jian Yufei sat in the car watching his tall yet lonely silhouette and suddenly felt that there was an unusual story behind him.

Qi Ruisen did not give himself much time to remain angry.

He returned to the car, his face now devoid of the previous rage yet still expressionless.

”We need to talk when we get back,” he suddenly said to her as he sat in the car.

Jian Yufei nodded subconsciously, ”Okay.”

Back at Nangong Castle, the two went straight to their residence.

Sitting in Jian Yufei’s room, Qi Ruisen looked serious and spoke lightly, ”Do you know why I chose to marry you?”

Jian Yufei shook her head—how could she know?

A smirk curled up on Qi Ruisen’s lips, ”Because I need the power of the Nangong Family.”

”Why?” Jian Yufei wasn’t surprised at his answer.

There are no baseless affairs in this world. He didn’t love her but was willing to marry her, which was clearly for some other benefit.

But wasn’t he the third young master of the Qi Family?

The Qi Family was not lacking, so why did he need the power of the Nangong Family?

Qi Ruisen did not shy away from her question, ”Because what I want is the Qi Family. Everything from the Qi Family is now under my elder brother’s control and will be inherited by him in the future. I must get rid of him and seize the Qi Family!”

Jian Yufei was shocked!

Looking at the gentlemanly Qi Ruisen, she couldn’t have imagined he harbored such ambition.

Yet, she didn’t feel any of his deceit; instead, it was his elder brother who seemed devious to her.

Qi Ruisen continued, ”You help me seize the Qi Family, and I will do everything to help you find your child and deal with whoever you want to confront. We cooperate, how about it?”

Jian Yufei stared at him, pondering for a few seconds.

”What if the person I want to confront is my grandfather?”

Qi Ruisen smiled, ”He is not your enemy.”

”Then who is my enemy?!” Jian Yufei asked sharply.

Qi Ruisen lips thinned as he replied faintly, ”Nangong Xu.”

”Nangong Xu?” Jian Yufei was puzzled, ”Who is he?”

”...Your mother’s current husband.”

Jian Yufei’s eyes widened in shock, that kind and gentle man?

”His name is Nangong Xu?”

”Correct.”

Jian Yufei was confused, ”He also has the surname Nangong?”

Qi Ruisen nodded, ”Know about the Double Dragon Ring?”

”Yes.” She had even seen the ring.

”Know about the history of the Nangong Family?”
