CHAPTER 127: CHAPTER 127: SHENG JIANAN, YOU BASTARD! (7)

Tang Yanqi took her chin out of Sheng Jianan’s hand. She herself didn’t know what was wrong. With Sheng Jianan, she was always angry, but as long as she didn’t see him, her anger would subside, as if her emotions only fluctuated for this one man.

Forcefully, Sheng Jianan shoved Tang Yanqi into the car and directly headed to his apartment in the city center.

The car stopped downstairs, and before Tang Yanqi had a chance to speak, Sheng Jianan had already picked her up in a blatant princess carry.

Tang Yanqi’s eyes widened. Usually quick to react, she was now slow by several beats. It wasn’t her fault; they were just at each other’s throats, she had just slapped him, and he had shown both disgust and sarcasm towards her. What was happening now?

Tang Yanqi was very light. Holding her made almost no difference to Sheng Jianan and didn’t affect him in the least as he pressed the elevator button, entered the password, and opened the door. Once inside, Sheng Jianan turned on all the lights, making the apartment as bright as daylight, causing Tang Yanqi to instinctively squint her eyes.

Immediately after, she was placed on the sofa, and although she didn’t look, Tang Yanqi could feel Sheng Jianan’s eyes scrutinizing her.

Indeed, Sheng Jianan was looking at Tang Yanqi’s face, her collarbone, and the injuries on her arms. His expression was as dark as a storm about to break.

Unexplained anger gathered in his chest; today, even he didn’t know why he acted the way he did.

When Zhou Chengze asked him if he had feelings for her, Sheng Jianan’s first instinct was to deny it. How could he have feelings for a woman he’d only been with for a short time? Especially when that woman was Tang Yanqi.

But when he denied it, Sheng Jianan also had to admit that he sensed his own guilt. So after Zhou Chengze left, he attributed these abnormal feelings to simply a lack of female companionship.

In the past, his disinterest in women was because there had never been a woman close to him. As for Qiao Zi, Sheng Jianan had always viewed her as transcending gender—a colleague, a profitable subordinate, nothing more.

Now with Tang Yanqi around, Sheng Jianan, despite claiming he had no interest in women, found that staying in a place full of female hormones eventually stirred him as a man, especially when Tang Yanqi turned out to be more intriguing than he thought, naturally causing him to view her differently.

To validate his logic, Sheng Jianan deliberately staged such a scenario. But when Tang Yanqi appeared before him, Sheng Jianan realized that what he anticipated wasn’t the confirmation of his answer’s correctness but rather seeing certain emotions on Tang Yanqi’s face.

Wasn’t he her husband? Seeing her husband surrounded by other women should evoke a response in her as his wife, shouldn’t it?

But Sheng Jianan found himself disappointed; when Tang Yanqi saw other women around him, her face remained calm as ever. It was only when she was harassed by others, and he stayed silent, that this little hedgehog went berserk.

The words "Sheng Jianan, you bastard!" have echoed in Sheng Jianan’s ears since Tang Yanqi ran away, prompting him to disregard everyone’s surprised looks and chase after her. Why chase her? What was he thinking? Sheng Jianan didn’t know; he had only one thought—chasing was the right thing to do!
