Revenge Sevenfold
Chapter 83 Practical Jokes

Nian Zhen opened her mouth slowly and said, "I'll be going then."

She didn't want to leave him with this lowly actress, but he had already dismissed her. Nian Zhen didn't want to show him her selfish side, so she had to reluctantly agree. Anyway, it wouldn't be long before that trash would disappear.

She would make sure that Brother Shen would be the one to do it himself. Only in that way, she believed, would that trash be completely rooted out of his heart.

Hui Yin gave her a friendly smile.

"Miss Nian, maybe I could accompany you back? I'll call driver Cheng."

Hui Yin wanted to annoy her more, and at the same time escape the clutches of this predator that had trapped her within his embrace.

But Lu Shen said blandly, "No need. Cheng is already waiting for her outside. You just need to get dressed."

Then his arm scooped her from behind the knees and carried her like a child as he stood up. Realizing that he was not giving her a chance to weasel out of it, Hui Yin faked a great yawn.

"Oof...hubby, I'm so tired. Can't I just sleep instead? Let's do our date next time."

Hui Yin deliberately drooped her eyes.

But at the next moment, she felt the arm supporting her give way, and she started to fall.

"Ah?!" she yelled.

She flailed her limbs in desperation, bracing herself for the hard impact. But a familiar softness cushioned her body instead.

Hui Yin slowly opened one eye, then the other.

What! What is this?

She had fallen into the sofa!

As Hui Yin was about to let out a silent sigh of relief, she glanced up and saw Lu Shen watching her with a grim expression.

"Such a loud scream for someone about to fall asleep."

His mouth was twisted into a cruel smirk.

Hui Yin's face drained of color.

This...this shameless bastard! He duped her!

But she could not say this out loud.

Because she attempted to trick him first.

As Hui Yin struggled to sit up and tried to keep the loving expression remain on her face, she shot an embarrassed look at Nian Zhen.

"Haha...hubby sure likes to play practical jokes. I'm sorry you have to see this, Miss Nian. He likes to prank me, knowing that I get easily scared. So naughty."

In her mind, she had already stabbed him 10,000 times. But she had to keep the façade. She needed to hold for two days more. Today, and tomorrow.

Hui Yin was not impatient. She had already lived for two lifetimes, and that gave her a sense of tolerance that did not match her current age of only being twenty two years old.

Nian Zhen's eyes were cold. She pinched the tender skin on her wrist to remind herself to hold her temper.

"Yinyin, you and Brother Shen sure get along well. But I guess I'm intruding on your time together. I'll be leaving first."

Nian Zhen turned to Lu Shen to see if he would walk with her outside to the car, but he did not seem to have any inclination on moving away from his position. He merely gave her a nod.

Hui Yin had a sullen expression since she knew what he was doing. He was guarding her in case she made a run for it. But Hui Yin had already abandoned that idea. Where could she go? He was faster than her, and stronger.

Lock herself in her room? He had the master key to the whole villa. Even driver Cheng would not take her if Lu Shen would not permit it. Temporarily, whether she liked it or not, she was stuck here.

She watched as Nian Zhen went out of the door, her straight black hair slightly swinging behind her. On an objective level, Hui Yin knew that Nian Zhen was a beautiful woman. She had a perfect body with the right curves, and Hui Yin personally knew that she would still look the same twenty years into the future. It was indeed true that all that glitters were not gold.

As soon as Nian Zhen left, Lu Shen told her to get dressed again.

Hui Yin grumbled under her breath as his eyes followed her every move until she went into her room and changed. Where did he think she would go? She dillydallied, not hurrying at all.

Hui Yin did not look at the expensive dresses Lu Shen had put inside her closet and dressed in her own clothes.
