He opened her phone with one hand, as if looking for something, pressed it for a while, and then held the screen in front of her, saying in a sharp tone: "Read these words to me verbatim!"

  That was the page where she and Lu Bancheng exchanged texts.

  On the screen was the longest message she had sent to Lu Bancheng asking for his help.

  What does he let her read these?

  Qin Zhi Ai pursed her lips and stared at the words on the screen, without making a sound.

  Her silence made Gu Yu Sheng's anger burn even brighter. She could speak to Lu Ban Cheng like that, so why couldn't she speak to him?

  Gu Yu Sheng waited for a moment, but she still didn't show any signs of speaking. Her fingers holding the phone were trembling slightly due to anger: "How come when you sent text messages to Lu Ban Cheng, you weren't so stingy with your words? You're not usually so talkative in front of him, are you? What's with the sudden silence now?! Hurry up and read it out loud for me, word for word, without leaving out a single character!"

  After finishing speaking, Gu Yu Sheng suddenly remembered Qin Zhi Ai's smiling face when she was talking to Lu Ban Cheng and added another sentence: "Smile while reading it to me!"

  This is the third time he has mentioned Lu Fei's name today... The first two times, she was really puzzled, but now that she saw the text message on her phone and heard what he said, Qin Zhi'ai vaguely understood.

  Is he so angry because she asked Lu Ban Cheng for help?

  But why was he angry? He told her not to disturb her, she did what he said, what's there for him to be angry about?

  Qin Zhi Ai pursed her lips and subconsciously lowered her eyelids, blocking the line of sight that was staring at her phone.

  But in just a few seconds, her chin was lifted up by Gu Yu Sheng's fingers, forcing her line of sight to meet the phone screen: "Is it that you didn't hear what I said, or are you pretending not to have heard what I said? Or do you not want to read for me?"

  Yu's anger surged as he spoke, his fury like a massive wave crashing against his chest. He unconsciously increased the pressure on her jaw, his eyes blazing with destructive intent. Gnashing his teeth, he spat out: "I'm telling you, today you'll read for me whether you want to or not! Hurry up, don't force me to take action!"

  She was pinched by him, her teeth ached and chattered, she wanted to speak several times, but only moved her lips without making a sound.

  "I'm telling you for the last time, read it to me!" Gu Yu Sheng seemed to have lost all patience, his voice low and cold as he squeezed out the last word "read", then completely lost his temper. He flung her onto the sofa, his eyes losing their rationality as he raised his phone, ready to smash it at her body.

  Qin Zhi'ai seemed to be completely unaware of Gu Yu Sheng's anger, her eyebrows and eyes didn't even flicker once. She lay on the sofa, her expression was surprisingly calm, and her voice was soft and light: "Why do I have to do this, don't you know?"

  Gu Yu Sheng's hand, which was about to smash his phone, suddenly stopped when he heard this sentence.

  He stared at her face with a gloomy expression, as if he was really speechless.

  Qin Zhi'ai slowly turned over, sat up from the sofa, and looked back at Gu Yusheng's eyes. She clearly repeated what she had just said: "Why do I have to go find Lu Bancheng? Don't you really know?"
