We Don’t Want Any Trash

Lu Zhuo’s pupils constricted. He did not expect Old Madam Xu to agree to annul the engagement. Back then, if not for this engagement, he and Bai Mengyao would not have broken up. Now, he wanted to fulfill the engagement, but the Xu family was the one who wanted to annul it!

“Xu Jiaojiao!” Lu Zhuo grabbed Xu Jiaojiao’s arm with enough strength to crush her bones.

Xu Jiaojiao felt that her arm was about to break. She frowned and said, “Let go, you’re hurting me…”

However, not only did Lu Zhuo not let go, he tightened his grip instead. His eyes were filled with stubbornness. “Xu Jiaojiao, you can be angry and throw a tantrum because I left on our wedding day. I understand I was wrong, and I’m willing to make it up to you, but you can’t break off the engagement. Who else can you marry in this life other than me?!”

As he finished speaking, he leaned closer to Xu Jiaojiao again. There was a hint of mockery in his dark expression. “After all, you’ve liked me for so many years. Can you bear to break up with me?”

Xu Jiaojiao stopped struggling and looked at Lu Zhuo in disbelief. She did not expect the man she had liked for a few years to say such hurtful words. Although Lu Zhuo still looked the same as when she liked him, his expression was cold and dark. His words were mean and mocking, without a trace of gentleness.

Xu Jiaojiao was disappointed. An indescribable bitterness spread in her heart. She bit her lip and said, “Just… Let go of me first.”

Lu Zhuo did not let go, stuffing the velvet box into Xu Jiaojiao’s hands instead. “If you don’t like this gift, then you can deal with it as you please. I’ll give you a new one next time.”

Xu Jiaojiao widened her eyes. “Lu Zhuo, what are you trying to do? We’ve already…” Before she could finish speaking, Lu Zhuo stopped her.

Lu Zhuo lowered his head and looked at her. “What’s the problem? You’re my fiancée. What’s wrong with me holding your hand?”

As soon as he finished speaking, a large hand suddenly reached out from the side, grabbed Lu Zhuo’s wrist, and twisted it forcefully. The moment Lu Zhuo felt the pain, he loosened his grip on Xu Jiaojiao. He looked at the owner of the hand with anger written all over his face.

When Xu Jiaojiao saw Qi Shenbai beside her, she was stunned. Why was he here?

Qi Shenbai did not seem to notice the surprise in Xu Jiaojiao’s eyes. His long arms naturally wrapped around her shoulders, and when he spoke, his voice was gentler than usual. “Are you alright?”

Xu Jiaojiao was still in a daze. She nodded mechanically.

When Lu Zhuo saw this man who had appeared out of nowhere hugging Xu Jiaojiao, he demanded rudely, “Who are you?”

Qi Shenbai looked up, his dark eyes calm and cold. “I’m Xu Jiaojiao’s husband.”

This simple sentence was like a sudden clap of thunder to Lu Zhuo. Lu Zhuo immediately denied it, yelling, “Impossible, that’s absolutely impossible!” After saying that, his gaze fell on Xu Jiaojiao again. “Jiaojiao, don’t think that you can lie to me just because you found any random man.”

Xu Jiaojiao was stunned. How was Qi Shenbai “any random man”?

Xu Jiaojiao stole a glance at Qi Shenbai. Qi Shenbai’s expression was calm, as if it did not particularly bother him.

Indeed, Qi Shenbai did not take Lu Zhuo seriously. He took over Xu Jiaojiao’s drawing board and said in a deep voice, “Let’s go home.” After he finished speaking, his arm slid downward and he naturally held Xu Jiaojiao’s hand.

Xu Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment before her gaze fell on the large hand that was holding hers. Qi Shenbai was very tall, and his palm was big. The temperature of his palm was also very hot, so hot that her face turned red. All her life, she had never held a man’s hand like this, aside from her brother’s.

It was right after school, so many students heard their conversation and looked at Lu Zhuo with disdain. How shameless of him to pester a married woman! Most importantly, the man who suddenly appeared was so handsome that their legs went weak!

Lu Zhuo held his aching wrist and watched as Xu Jiaojiao was snatched away by this strange man who came out of nowhere. His face was as dark as the night.

Qi Shenbai held Xu Jiaojiao’s hand as they walked to the car. Before getting into the car, he saw the velvet box in Xu Jiaojiao’s hand and said, “Give it to me.”

“Huh?” Xu Jiaojiao was taken aback. After a moment, she realized that Qi Shenbai was talking about the box in her hand. She did not know what he wanted to do, but she still gave it to him without asking.

Qi Shenbai took the box and raised his arm slightly. The high-end gift box accurately avoided the crowd and smashed at Lu Zhuo’s feet. After throwing it away, Qi Shenbai lowered his head and persuaded Xu Jiaojiao, “Good girl. We don’t want any trash at home.”
