Chapter 141: 146
Chapter One Hundred and Forty-Six
Feeling the immense power around her neck, Shangguan Baihe's face turned red, but she wasn't afraid, and she continued to provoke Long Xiaoshan, "If you have the guts, then strangle me to death."
"You—" Long Xiaoshan was truly angered.
His fingers tightened slightly.
Immediately, Shangguan Baihe's face turned purple, and she began to have difficulty breathing.
Even so, Shangguan Baihe still stared into Long Xiaoshan's eyes, without an ounce of retreat.
Long Xiaoshan even saw a hint of excitement in her eyes.
How could this be.
Had he seen it wrong?
Long Xiaoshan's brow furrowed slightly.
He gradually let go of his grip.
Seeing that Long Xiaoshan wasn't going to kill her, Shangguan Baihe sneered, "You're just a coward. If you dare, kill me, Long Xiaoshan. I look down on you. If you don't kill me, I will spread the news about you and Qin You throughout the county by tomorrow."
The more Long Xiaoshan heard, the angrier he became.
Especially after the last sentence, he truly had the urge to kill.
"Since you're courting death, I'll oblige," Long Xiaoshan roared lowly, and his grip tightened once again.
This time, Long Xiaoshan exerted ten percent of his strength, and even that was too much for an ordinary person to withstand. Shangguan Baihe quickly felt herself unable to breathe, her face turning a horrifying shade of purple, and due to asphyxiation, her eyes began to roll back.
But just then.
...
What the hell!
Long Xiaoshan quickly released his hand.
He looked at Shangguan Baihe with a strange expression in his eyes.
Shangguan Baihe coughed violently a few times, gasping for air.
Gradually, she caught her breath, her starry eyes hazy, and her seductive red lips curved into a reckless and willful smile as she looked at the stupefied Long Xiaoshan,
It must be said, Long Xiaoshan had never encountered a woman like Shangguan Baihe before.
Flirting with this kind of woman
Was like walking a tightrope on a cliff.
It was unique, thrilling, tempting Long Xiaoshan. If Chun Tao was a sweet glass of fruit wine, then this woman was a fiery bottle of whiskey.
But still.
He didn't like being controlled by a woman he couldn't see through; he always felt there was something crazy about her.
With a push, he shoved Shangguan Baihe away.
"Let's go, to Hechuan!"
Long Xiaoshan threw out a sentence coldly, engaged the gear, and slammed down the accelerator. The Porsche shot off like an arrow from a bow.
Shangguan Baihe leaned lazily against the chair back, gazing at Long Xiaoshan's chiseled and icy profile. She extended her petite and tender tongue, licking the corner of her mouth, a hint of triumph twinkling in her starry eyes.
The Porsche soon entered Hechuan City.
Shangguan Baihe picked up her phone and made a call.
After hanging up, she put down her phone helplessly, "Xiaoshan, President Bai is in the province today and won't be back until tomorrow."
"Really?" Long Xiaoshan watched Shangguan Baihe with a somewhat skeptical gaze.
"If you don't believe me, then call yourself," Shangguan Baihe said irritably, handing over the phone to him.
"Forget it, I believe you," Long Xiaoshan was also helpless.
What a coincidence.
"So what do we do now, should we head back to the county first?" Long Xiaoshan suggested.
"No way, we've come all this way already, keep me company and take a look around," Shangguan Baihe pulled on Long Xiaoshan's arm.
Long Xiaoshan didn't want to go shopping.
But by now, he was somewhat alarmed by Shangguan Baihe's arbitrary nature, fearing that she might really spill the beans about him and Qin You.
He couldn't really kill her, after all.
"Fine," he parked the car in the central commercial district's parking lot of Hechuan City.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Long Xiaoshan and Shangguan Baihe got out of the car and entered the shopping mall.
As soon as Shangguan Baihe entered the mall, she dragged Long Xiaoshan straight to a lingerie store. Faced with the dazzling array and wide variety of lingerie, and being the only man in the entire store, Long Xiaoshan felt embarrassed.
He grumbled in a low voice, "If you want to shop then shop, why drag me here? You can buy lingerie anytime."
"Why do you think, if not for your doing?" Shangguan Baihe gave Long Xiaoshan a disdainful look.
After leaving the lingerie store, the two of them bought quite a few clothes in the mall—of course, it was all Shangguan Baihe making the purchases, Long Xiaoshan didn't buy anything.
Even though he wasn't short of money now, having been accustomed to being a farmer, he still wasn't used to spending lavishly.
Coming out of the mall, they had just settled into the car
When Shangguan Baihe's phone suddenly rang.
Shangguan Baihe grabbed her phone vigorously. When she saw the number on the screen, her face suddenly changed drastically, and then she pushed the door and stepped out.
Long Xiaoshan watched her get out to take the call.
Obviously, she didn't want him to overhear.
He wasn't that bored. Since the other party didn't want him to hear, he wouldn't eavesdrop. Otherwise, even if Shangguan Baihe were outside the car, he would still be able to hear.
About five minutes later.
Shangguan Baihe returned to the car.
Her face looked terrible, "Xiaoshan, I'm sorry, I have something urgent to attend to and have to leave first. Here is President Bai's phone number and the hotel room card. I have a hotel room in the city that I rent year-round. You can contact her yourself tomorrow."
She handed over a business card and the room card.
"Shangguan, what's wrong?" Long Xiaoshan asked, taking the business card.
Shangguan Baihe shook her head, but a blaze of anger and sorrow flickered deep in her eyes.
Seeing this, Long Xiaoshan didn't say anything.
Although his relationship with Shangguan Baihe was only a partnership and not particularly close,
He definitely would have asked if it were Qin You.
After getting out of the car, he watched Shangguan Baihe drive away.
Left with no choice, Long Xiaoshan, holding the room card, took a cab.
The room was not far from the city center, in the only five-star hotel in the city. Shangguan Baihe had rented a deluxe room
After entering, Long Xiaoshan first put his things down.
