Chapter 11: Seeing Her at a Glance


Almost instantly, his other hand mercilessly struck Jiang Zhong's wrist, making him release his grip in pain.


Jiang Chenchen was thus protected in Sheng Ming Si's embrace.


In his wide and pitch-black embrace.


Everything happened quickly. Being so close, the girl in his arms remained motionless.


However, Sheng Mingsi realized that he was holding the girl's waist, even though she was wearing quite a bit of clothing. Her waist was so delicate that it seemed it might break with a little force.


The sudden thought was inappropriate. He tightened his expression, quickly released his hand, took a step back without leaving a trace, maintaining some distance while still protecting her.


Jiang Zhong was now furious, his head spinning. He pointed his finger at him, "What are you trying to do?! Are you trying to abduct someone else's child in broad daylight?!"


Sheng Mingsi stared at him through his sunglasses, "Be careful with your fingers."


His tone was definitely not a threat.


Jiang Zhong was chilled by his momentum but unwilling to show weakness, especially the foolish and dull niece who, a few days ago, had gotten close to him after having a drink and ended up hitting his head, requiring more than ten stitches.


And now, this stranger could easily embrace her!


Zhang Lanmei noticed her husband's abnormality, afraid it would escalate, so she rushed over and stood in front of him, reaching out to pull Jiang Chenchen out of the man's arms. "Chenchen, come over here quickly. This person is not a good person! He's a bad person!"


She used force, but Jiang Chenchen showed no sign of being pulled. Zhang Lanmei thought the man in black was hindering her but found that wasn't the case.


Puzzled, she looked back at the dazed gaze.


"He is a good person."


Difficult to articulate, but heard clearly.


Zhang Lanmei couldn't believe it. Was her niece refuting what she just said about the man not being a good person?


The mentally ill niece, who had never spoken in front of them, spoke again for a stranger.


Especially with her dull gaze fixed on herself, a chill rose in her heart.


She was suddenly scared and loosened her grip, unable to say the last word.


Sheng Mingsi heard Jiang Chenchen say this, and while perplexed, he saw her look over.


Her expressionless face reiterated her words.


"You are a good person."


Sheng Mingsi's brow twitched slightly, wanting to see a trace of acting on her face, but found none.


"Because I helped you today?"


Jiang Chenchen shook her head, her tone exceptionally firm. "Because the ice cream is delicious."


Sheng Mingsi: ... Just that?


Maybe he was overthinking.


Maybe she wasn't mentally stable.


It wouldn't be surprising if she was lured into marriage.


Jiang Zhong couldn't hold back any longer, pushed aside Zhang Lanmei, and wanted to make a move, but two suit-clad bodyguards appeared and stopped them.


He was startled; who exactly was this man in black!?


Then the president of Huan Yu Group, Gu Mingmei, who had caused chaos earlier, approached in high heels.


"As, why are you still here?"


The woman who had torn apart her image before was now elegant and noble. She shifted her gaze from Sheng Mingsi to the girl he was protecting, with a hint of playfulness in her eyes.


"Because of her?"


"None of your business." Sheng Mingsi spoke coldly.


Gu Mingmei didn't get angry but chuckled lightly, reaching out to hook Jiang Chenchen's chin and nodding at her face. "She's very pretty. I saw her at a glance in the chaos just now, and she looked so dazed."


Releasing her chin, she raised an eyebrow, looked at Sheng Mingsi, and provocatively said, "So, do you like this type?"
