Bai Qian could not say no to Bai Ran’s request. She carried her daughter and went straight to Lu Rong’s study.

Lu Rong had not locked eth door from inside. Bai Ran came down, and her tiny hand struggled to hold the door handle. Then, with a click, she pushed open the door in an instant.

It shocked Bai Qian, and she quickly held the doorknob. Unfortunately, it was already too late. The man in the study had noticed them.

“Come in,” Lu Rong said in displease.

Bai Ran heard Lu Rong’s voice and immediately ran in. Before Lu Rong could see her, she called out, “Daddy!”

Bai Qian followed Bai Ran in, but it surprised her that Lu Rong was the only one in the study. Qi Yue had already left.

Bai Qian hid her shocked expression and quickly explained, “I’m sorry, Mr. Lu. It’s my fault for being careless…”

Before Bai Qian could finish her sentence, Lu Rong interrupted her. He spoke gently to Bai Ran, “Ran Ran, go play with the butler first. Daddy has something to tell your Auntie Bai.”

Bai Ran looked at Lu Rong with her big eyes. Then she looked at Bai Qian. She immediately answered with a smile, “Okay.”

After Bai Ran left, the atmosphere in the study became tense. Lu Rong stood up from his seat as he looked at Bai Qian.

Lu Rong walked around the table and stopped in front of her. He was angry, “Bai Qian, tell me, What’s your intention?”

“That is a misunderstanding, Mr. Lu,” Bai Qian anxiously explained.

“Misunderstanding?” Lu Rong took a step forward and stood closer to Bai Qian, forcing her to retreat step by step. She had no choice but to lean against the edge of the table as Lu Rong continued speaking in a cold tone, “You hit on me at the supermarket the last time. This time, you opened the door to my study without my permission. Are you telling me that this is a misunderstanding?”

His body was still getting closer and closer to Bai Qian. Bai Qian had no choice but to bend her body down. She was by the table, and her voice was a little shaky as she said, “I didn’t mean to open the door to your study. It was a careless mistake.”

Bai Qian couldn’t push the responsibility on Bai Ran. Lu Rong and Bai Ran had only been in contact for a short while. It worried her that Lu Rong might dislike Bai Ran because of that.

It would be better for Bai Qian to take the blame. Lu Rong’s study was a discrete and forbidden place in Lu Garden. Even she rarely went into his study six years ago. Every time she entered, she had to get his permission.

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a sudden pain in her neck. It turned out that Lu Rong had suddenly made a move and clenched her neck.

He looked at her coldly, “You only have one chance to tell me the truth. I have no patience. If I don’t get the answer I want from your mouth, you won’t be able to speak again for the rest of your life.”

He threatened her as he emphasized each word he said.

His grip on Bai Qian’s neck suffocated her. Her eyes were red, and tears flooded in them. She parted her lips, trying to speak. Lu Rong could see the tip of her tongue and her white teeth.

Bai Ran was pretty. Her delicate and pitiful look was just the thing that could arouse the hidden desire that he had not had for six years.

As Lu Rong strangled her, he felt a burning desire rising in him.

Feeling the change in Lu Rong’s body from the hardened part of him pressing against her, Bai Qian’s mind was in a mess. She used all her strength to push his fingers away and shouted as she gasped for breath, “Let, let go!”

There was a huge difference in strength between them. Lu Rong was much stronger than Bai Qian. He grabbed her hand made her back face him. Then he pinned her onto the table again.

This time, he did not strangle her but pressed her head..
