Qin Chuan shivered and nervously pushed Su Qian away, while glancing around to make sure they weren't seen.

Luckily, he left late, and there were no cameras here.

Otherwise, they'd likely hit the front page tomorrow.

"Stop messing around, okay? If you have something to say, say it. If not, I need to go home for dinner."

Being teased repeatedly by Su Qian, Qin Chuan grew a bit impatient, his tone becoming harsher.

Unexpectedly, after being scolded, Su Qian wasn't angry but seemed as if some switch had turned on: "Brother Chuan, when you're angry, Little Bitch likes it. Scold me more, scold me a few more times, please?"

"What? Are you crazy?"

Qin Chuan was shocked, seriously suspecting Su Qian had some masochistic tendencies, otherwise, why make such ridiculous requests?

"I don't know, I just know that when you scolded me just now, I wanted you even more." Su Qian pouted, acting cute.

Qin Chuan, speechless, just rolled his eyes at her.

He didn't bother dwelling on Su Qian's quirks, gathered his things, and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Su Qian quickly followed: "There is something, I really did come to find you for something."

"Speak."

Qin Chuan stopped and warned: "If it's that matter again, then there's no need to say it."

"It's not."

Su Qian wrapped Qin Chuan's arm and playfully said: "Brother Chuan, I'll tell you something important, promise to spend the night with me, okay?"

"Say it or don't!"

Qin Chuan lost patience, withdrew his hand, and prepared to leave.

"Come on, don't be impatient. Okay, okay, I won't tease you, it's really urgent."

Su Qian persistently followed, then seriously said: "Zhu Jifeng told Xiang Jinghui from the Red Dragon Association about you. It's the same Hui Shao who wanted me and Xixi to accompany him in the KTV that day."

"Red Dragon Association? Xiang Jinghui?"

Qin Chuan furrowed his brow.

"Xiang Jinghui wants me and Xixi to accompany him for a threesome, but dreaming won't make it happen; I can only accept a threesome with Brother Chuan and Xixi." Su Qian said, boasting.

"..."

Qin Chuan was speechless again.

This seemingly innocent girl talks about sex every three sentences, is she really that needy?

Could any man actually handle her?

They'd be drained dry by her.

"What's the story with the Red Dragon Association and Xiang Jinghui? Are they powerful? Mafia?" Qin Chuan couldn't help but ask.

Su Qian nodded: "Pretty much, in the grey area of Jiangcheng, there are two forces, one is the Southern Red Dragon, which is the Red Dragon Association, and the other is the North Silver Fox, also called the Silver Fox Commerce Association."

"Both have large forces, with thousands of subordinates, controlling over half of Jiangcheng's grey industries."

"Xiang Jinghui's father, Xiang Dongsheng, is the Hall Master of the Dog Hall in the Red Dragon Association, with hundreds of thugs under him."

Hearing this, Qin Chuan was puzzled: "How does a university student know all this?"

"A friend of my dad told me."

Su Qian explained, her expression noticeably cooler when mentioning her dad.

But she quickly resumed normalcy: "Brother Chuan, considering how concerned I am about you, can't you show me some pity and fulfill Little Bitch's small wish?"

"Here we go again..."

Qin Chuan was really done with this flirtatious girl, even when discussing serious matters, her mind never veered from desire, truly unbelievable.

"How many people does Xiang Jinghui have under him? Compared to Wu Xuan, who's stronger?"

Qin Chuan held onto patience, continuing his inquiries.

"Xiang Jinghui is constantly surrounded by over a dozen people; they're the ones you fought last time and are his subordinates."

Momentarily, Su Qian shelved her flirtatiousness and spoke earnestly: "But, to my knowledge, his father arranged for an expert to protect him, though it's unclear why they didn't appear last time."

"As for strength, I'm really not sure, but people from Dog Hall are notorious for their ruthlessness."

"I speculate that the expert's skill might not be weaker than Wu Xuan's, possibly even stronger."

Hearing this, Qin Chuan nodded and continued asking: "Do you know where Xiang Jinghui usually operates?"

"Brother Chuan, are you planning to find him?"

Su Qian, startled, quickly tried to dissuade him: "They're looking for you everywhere now, wouldn't you be walking right into their trap if you went?"

"Rather than waiting for him to find trouble with me, I might as well take care of it first."

A flash of determination gleamed in Qin Chuan's eyes.

Back in school, when bullied, he once took a hatchet to the older student's classroom and slammed it onto his desk.

After that, the arrogant upperclassman never troubled him again.

Of course, Xiang Jinghui is nothing like a student, but Qin Chuan today is not the weakling he once was.

His biggest worry now is Xiang Jinghui taking out his anger on his stepmother and stepsister.

Thus, Qin Chuan feels he must act first, to nip that possibility in the bud.

"No! Don't act impulsively."

Afraid Qin Chuan might do something foolish, Su Qian quickly interjected: "My dad's friend knows some people; I can ask him to intervene and see if this matter can be resolved."

Qin Chuan shook his head upon hearing this.

He shares no ties with Su Qian and doesn't want to owe her any favors.

Of course, the main worry is Su Qian using this as a pretext to cling to him, forcing him into a relationship.

Being friends is fine, but taking it further is out of the question.

Besides, dating his stepsister's best friend would be inappropriate.

"Ah~ Brother Chuan!"

Su Qian pouted, her eyes hinting at disappointment: "You offended Xiang Jinghui for saving me and Xixi that day, can't I lend a hand? I'm not asking for anything."

"Um..."

Qin Chuan was momentarily at a loss, suddenly realizing he had no good retort.

"Of course..."

But before Qin Chuan could feel moved for long, Su Qian reverted, enticing: "If you want to repay me, it's not impossible. Little Bitch really wants to sleep with Master; would you grant her a small wish?"

"You're at it again..."

Qin Chuan found himself both amused and exasperated.

He still couldn't fathom what exactly about him had attracted Su Qian so relentless pursuit.

To be clear, Su Qian, with her beauty, could summon countless men eager to fall for her with just a gesture.

Why would she insist on latching onto him?

Reflecting on this, Qin Chuan couldn't help but ask: "We've officially known each other for less than three days, why are you fixated on me?"

"Because..."

When facing this question, Su Qian suddenly grew silent: "Do you want the truth or a lie?"

"Does this even have truth or lies?" Qin Chuan felt incredulous of this girl.

"The truth is, the moment I saw you, I had a physiological reaction. Without you, I'm not content."

Su Qian lifted her head, gazing earnestly at Qin Chuan: "The lie is when you shielded me and Qianqian in the KTV that day, it felt like you were a father."

Faced with Su Qian's sudden emotional revelation, Qin Chuan was left stunned.

In a daze, he seemed to glimpse tears shimmering in Su Qian's eyes.

He couldn't tell whether the truth was a lie or the lie was the truth.

"Brother Chuan, can you hug me?"

Su Qian's eyelashes trembled slightly, as two lines of clear tears fell from her reddened eyes.

Qin Chuan's heart softened, and almost involuntarily he opened his arms and drew her into an embrace.

Su Qian tucked herself into his chest, sobbing quietly.

Listening to her cries, Qin Chuan felt a twinge of guilt.

He shouldn't have asked that question just now.

While Qin Chuan's heart was softening, Su Qian slowly raised her head, looking pitifully at Qin Chuan: "Brother Chuan, can you kiss me?"
