‘When Su Nan was sound asleep, Lu Jin was ready to get up and take a shower.

However, as soon as he got out of bed, his hand was tightly grabbed by the woman on the bed. She seemed to have sensed something and she kept muttering, “Don’t go. Don’t leave me.

Her aggrieved and frightened voice was like that of an injured kitten, and it instantly made Lu Jin’s heart soften.

His heart ached. The protective desire that had just been born deepened. His gaze was dark and gloomy as he stared at the fair face on the bed. He lay down again and he hugged her gently.

“Thaven’t left. I will never leave,” he comforted Su Nan softly.

Only then did Su Nan feel at ease again. It was as if this embrace was the harbor that could shelter her from the wind and rain. She turned her body and curled up into Lu Jin’s embrace. Her fragile and cute appearance made Lu Jin’s heart ache.

She continued to sleep comfortably, but she didn’t know that when she curled up, her soft buttocks were pressed against Lu Jin’s body. Lu Jin, who had been trying his best to control himself, was immediately aroused by the soft touch, and his lower body perked up again.
However, Su Nan didn’t notice it at all.

Lu Jin felt that he was very likely to be suffocated by lust today. Su Nan’s drunken appearance made it even more difficult for him to restrain his lust!

After a long while, Lu Jin finally suppressed the desire again. Su Nan started breathing steadily and she was fast asleep.

“Investigate Su Nan.” Lu Jin made a call to Jiang Yue. He was very curious about Su Nan’s past.

Jiang Yue was preparing to spend the night with a girl. When he heard Lu Jin’s words, his desire for gossip trumped his desire for lovemaking. He pushed the beautiful woman away and replied excitedly, “In what aspect?”

“I want to know everything about her past!” Lu Jin said in a deep voice.

Jiang Yue’s interest was piqued at this moment. Lu Jin didn’t need to say this. He had already gone to investigate Su Nan previously and had dug up almost all the information about her.

“You should have said so earlier. I’ve already investigated everything for you! Su Nan hasn’t been in the country these few years and has been abroad. However, you’ll definitely be shocked by her previous identity.”

“She used to be the daughter of the Su family, a wealthy family in $ City. She was an heiress with a willful and unruly personality. After all, she grew up with a silver spoon. She almost got engaged to Qiao Ming, the CEO of the Qiao Group. However, two days before the engagement, the fact that she
cheated on him with a male prostitute was suddenly exposed. She even went crazy and was locked up in the asylum. Later on, the asylum caught fire and she disappeared.”

“It seems that the Qiao family’s current achievements are all thanks to Su Nan. Without Su Nan’s guarantee, the Su family wouldn’t have given Qiao Ming so many resources and support at that time. It’s a pity that Qiao Ming is engaged to another woman now, and she was once his sister in name.”
Jiang Yue spoke without stopping, and his tone was full of regret.

The grudges between the rich and powerful families were much more interesting than television dramas. When he found out about it, he clicked his tongue in wonder as he read on.

Lu Jin listened with a dark expression on his face. When he heard that Su Nan was almost engaged to Qiao Ming, he gave off a strong sense of hostility. However, when he thought about how he was that “male prostitute”, he felt very relieved.

“Is there something wrong with Qiao Ming? Su Nan is such a beautiful woman and she has business acumen. Women like her are rare in this world. Yet, he doesn’t want her and insists on being with the adopted daughter of the Qiao family. He’s really blind. Do you think he’ll regret it in the dead of night?”
Jiang Yue was still chattering.

Lu Jin was displeased and his tone was cold as he said, “Is he worthy of her?”

Jiang Yue’s heart skipped a beat when he heard the viciousness in Lu Jin’s voice. He quickly echoed, “He’s not worthy. Qiao Ming isn’t worthy of Su Nan. In this world, only you are worthy of Su Nan. One is handsome and wealthy, while the other is beautiful and has business acumen. You two are a perfect
match!”

He was obviously kissing up to him.
“Okay, continue to investigate. If there’s anything else about her, tell me immediately.” Lu Jin felt that it wasn’t enough. Just knowing this wasn’t enough. He wanted to know all the details about Su Nan.
Only this way could he get to know her as quickly as possible and get close to her.

Thinking that his son’s mother had once been so in love with another man and almost got engaged to him, Lu Jin felt murderous rage..
