Despite knowing that her fingers had been cut off, Mr. Yuan merely said a few simple words and did not console her in any other way. Yet, she did not need those words. She was in extreme despair.
Now that he said such harsh words, Lu Mengxi was stunned.
She was extremely, extremely ufortable.
Why?
Why was he so harsh towards her?
Mr. Yuan said, “Lu Mengxi, don’t anger Shen Qianshu. I have told you so many times, yet you don’t listen. Without my protection, the Lu Family will topple with a single hit. Don’t treat your entire family as a joke.”
“Are you so scared of Shen Qianshu?” asked Lu Mengxi sharply. Was he so scared that he did not dare to be enemies with her?
“Yes, I’m scared.” Mr. Yuan’s voice had a hint ofughter.
Lu Mengxi felt like she was struck with lightning, and she could not ept this. Her tone changed. “Why? Why? You are so impressive and powerful.”
“I don’t need to tell you why. Don’t move lightly anymore. Otherwise, I will not care about you anymore. If you haven’t learned your lesson after losing two fingers, then it’s meaningless for you to continue living.”
Lu Mengxi’s heart suddenly became painful. Mr. Yuan had already hung up. He sounded very annoyed. Lu Mengxi was struck so hard that she wanted to faint, and her soul seemed to have left her body.
Should she just give up?
Should she just give up the pain that she had suffered from her fingers being cut?
She was unwilling!
America.
Las Vegas.
Shen Qianshu stood outside the casino in Las Vegas, looking at the tall man wearing sunsses in the distance. He took off his sunsses, revealing a handsome face. There was a scar on the right side of his face. The scar was very obvious, adding a menacing feel to his handsomeness.
He held onto his sunsses and shook it at Shen Qianshu with some goodwill. This was an unfamiliar man, yet he invited her for afternoon tea. Shen Qianshu looked up some of his news from the ck Rose’s database.
Mr. Yuan!
Lu Mengxi’s boss.
She walked over and stood in front of Mr. Yuan.
“I thought you’d be scared and note.”
“What’s there to be scared of?” Shen Qianshu smiled slightly. After breaking Lu Mengxi’s fingers, Mr. Yuan came to find her. It was highly likely that he did note with kind intentions. However, looking at him, he did not seem malicious.
Mr. Yuan smiled lightly. “Let’s go. Let me treat you to coffee.”
The two of them found a nearby open-air coffee ce. Shen Qianshu had already heard of Mr. Yuan’s reputation. Although they did not belong to the same world, there were not a lot of badments about Mr. Yuan.
He managed his men very strictly as well. After taking over the ck Rose, she had also heard about Mr. Yuan. He worked quite closely with the ck Rose and was considered a friend.
Hence, she dared toe out.
Shen Qianshu ordered a cup of coffee. For some reason, she felt that Mr. Yuan looked familiar, like she had seen him somewhere before. However, she could not recall where at that moment. The scar on his face was very obvious in the crowd. However, after wearing the sunsses, it was not obvious anymore, and only a small part of the scar was revealed.
The scar felt like it was going to poke his eye.
“Is Mr. Yuan going to seek justice for princess Lu Mengxi?” asked Shen Qianshu coldly. If he wanted to seek justice for Lu Mengxi, then he would havee with unkind intentions.
Mr. Yuan said, “You are the gatekeeper of ck Rose. Only you can seek justice for others. No one would dare to seek justice in front of you. I’m not that dense. I came to meet you because I’m... a little curious.”
“Curious?”
Mr. Yuan said, “Yeah, a little curious. Indeed, just like the rumors, you are very... lively.”
