Chapter 184: A Request
Jiang Li went up and put away the pieces on the ground, but she still said, “What? If I don’t say anything, will your hand already be in the wrong place?”
As Jiang Li said this, Chu Chu avoided her eyes. She looked at Fu Jiuxiao and waved her hand. “No, Mr. Fu, I didn’t. I really didn’t.”
Fu Jiuxiao did not even give Chu Chu an extra look. He just looked at Jiang Li.
His Ah Li was so cute even when she was jealous.
Holding the broken pieces of the porcelain plate in her hand, Jiang Li closed in on Chu Chu step by step.
Chu Chu wanted to run away, but she could not control her legs and fell to the ground with a thud.
Jiang Li held Chu Chu’s hand and raised it in front of her. Looking at the hand that was about to touch Fu Jiuxiao, Jiang Li’s eyes darkened. The porcelain plate in her hand kept closing in on Chu Chu. “What do you think will happen to your hand if I cut it?”
As Jiang Li spoke, the corners of her mouth curled up, but his eyes were filled with a terrifying depth.
Chu Chu could not help but tremble. Seeing this, Jiang Li felt bored and threw the porcelain piece to the side, “Chu Chu, put away your thoughts. You can’t hide it from anyone. I won’t touch you this time, but I hope you can learn your lesson. Next time, I won’t let you off so easily.”
After saying that, Jiang Li immediately let go of Chu Chu’s hand. Chu Chu hurriedly left the study. She did not even have time to pack up her things.
For a moment, the study returned to its usual calmness.
Jiang Li put away the porcelain pieces on the ground and stood in front of Fu Jiuxiao. Fu Jiuxiao was about to hug Jiang Li, but Jiang Li opened Fu Jiuxiao’s hand.
Fu Jiuxiao looked at Jiang Li’s cold eyes and explained helplessly, “Ah Li, believe me. I will never let any woman touch me except for you.”
As soon as Fu Jiuxiao finished speaking, Jiang Li immediately bit Fu Jiuxiao’s neck.
The moment her teeth touched his skin, Jiang Li suddenly felt inexplicably angry and wronged, and she increased his strength. There was a faint smell of blood in her mouth, but it did not make Jiang Li let go. Instead, Jiang Li exerted even more strength.
Fu Jiuxiao felt the pain on his neck, but he clenched his fists and did not make a sound.
The curtains in the study moved slightly, and Mo Ruhai, who came in through the window, almost fell to the ground when he saw the scene in front of him.
“Hey, what are you doing here in the middle of the day?”
Mo Ruhai covered his eyes and turned around.
Jiang Li heard Mo Ruhai’s voice, and she suddenly let go, pretending that nothing had happened.
Fu Jiuxiao held Jiang Li’s hand. This time, Jiang Li did not shake his hand off, and Fu Jiuxiao said with relief, “Elder Mo, why are you here this time?”
Mo Ruhai immediately turned around and chuckled. “Isn’t it simple? Of course it’s for a small thing. I have my eyes on a Colt revolver, but it’s in a museum, so I wanted to ask if you have any connections.”
Mo Ruhai seemed to be a little embarrassed at the end of his sentence.
Fu Jiuxiao glanced at Jiang Li and remembered that Mo Ruhai was Jiang Li’s master. Thus, he wanted to consider Jiang Li’s pride and make her happy.
Just as he was about to speak, Jiang Li took the initiative and said, “Sure, but I want you to protect my brother.”
“Little girl, are you crazy, or am I crazy? You want me to protect a little kid?”
Mo Ruhai’s eyes widened instantly. Ever since he was saved by this little girl, his dignity and pride had been rubbed against the ground.
Seeing that Mo Ruhai did not agree, Jiang Li could only pretend to shrug her shoulders regretfully. “Sigh, since you’re not willing, then forget it. I won’t force you anyway. I’m not the one who wants the gun, right?”
As soon as Jiang Li finished speaking, Mo Ruhai immediately said, “Okay! I agree! As soon as I get the gun, I’ll immediately go protect your brother, okay?”
Jiang Li faced her back to Mo Ruhai and smiled. Fu Jiuxiao even asked his assistant to set an appointment with the museum director in front of Mo Ruhai.
The next morning, Fu Jiuxiao went to the museum with Jiang Li. The museum director was already waiting for them.
When he saw Fu Jiuxiao, he greeted her from afar. “President Fu, what brings you here today?”
Fu Jiuxiao nodded at the director with a smile and said directly, “Actually, I came here today because I have something to ask of you.”
When the director heard Fu Jiuxiao’s words, his eyes widened and he stuttered, “Wh-what? You… need to ask something from me?”
