Shang Yan’s eyes were filled with coldness. When Qu Xiao met his icy gaze, her heart skipped a beat and she found it hard to speak.

Qu Xiao was anxious to clarify the misunderstanding. She shook her head furiously and walked towards Shang Yan.

Ling Chi could tell that there was a conflict between them, so he grabbed Qu Xiao’s hand trying to provoke Shang Yan.

“Xiao, don’t be afraid. I’m here today to support you.”

“You said you weren’t happy in this family, so I’ll take you away!”

Qu Xiao widened her eyes at Ling Chi in disbelief and exclaimed at Shang Yan anxiously, “He’s lying! Don’t believe him!”

She wanted to shake off Ling Chi’s hand, but the intense momement made her feel dizzy. Qu Xiao staggered and fell into Ling Chi’s arms.

Ling Chi took the opportunity to put his arms around her shoulders. He deliberately looked at Shang Yan and said provocatively, “Mr. Shang, I admit that you are an expert in business. You have your own way of managing a company. It’s admirable. But why can’t you control your wife?”

“You probably don’t know how much Xiao likes me, do you?”

“Xiao said that from the day she married you, she’d wanted to escape from this cage. She felt that every moment by your side was torture!”

Ling Chi pretended to look at Qu Xiao affectionately. “Mr. Shang, in the world of love, you are a complete failure.”

Shang Yan’s expression turned completely cold.

Qu Xiao felt as if she was stabbed in the heart.

Shang Yan was her favorite character. He was capable and charismatic. Even though his legs were disabled, he still managed to be on the top with his abilities. What right did Ling Chi have to say that about him?

Qu Xiao used all her strength to push Ling Chi away and ran to Shang Yan’s side.

“Don’t believe him. He wanted me to release Qu Qi, but I refused!”

Qu Xiao looked at Shang Yan with red eyes, but Shang Yan’s gaze was not gentle but mocking and cold.

Pressing the tip of his tongue against his teeth, he sized up Qu Xiao and Ling Chi before smiling.

“Are you guys putting on a show?”

“Qu Xiao! We’ve never wanted to trap you here. You are free to leave anytime!”

“As for Qu Qi, if you want, I can immediately call someone to get her out and send her home.”

Shang Yan looked at Qu Xiao deeply and said cruelly, “I don’t want to see you two again...”

Qu Xiao’s heart felt a dull pain, as if it was being hammered over and over.

“No, it’s not like that... Shang Yan, let me explain.”

Qu Xiao raised her arms, trying to block Shang Yan’s wheelchair. Tears rolled down her cheeks and her nails dug into her palms as she mumbled in her pale voice.

Shang Yan was so mad that he almost lost his mind when he saw Ling Chi pulling her to his side.

He pushed Qu Xiao away fiercely.

Qu Xiao lost her balance and fell. Her head hit the corner of the coffee table in the living room and blood flowed down her forehead...

“Qu Xiao!”

Shang Yan’s exclaim seemed to come from a faraway place as Qu Xiao blinked slowly.

The chandelier on the ceiling kept spinning, and Qu Xiao’s vision turned dark.

She could almost hear her heart beating. Thump, thump.

“Shang Yan, trust me...”

“I never wanted to leave with Ling Chi. I was waiting for your return. Shang Yan, how could I... leave you?”

Qu Xiao mumbled weakly as her head sank and she fainted.

Shang Yan hugged her and frowned when he heard her calling his name repeatedly.

“What are you waiting for? Get a doctor!”
