51: The God of War hadn't been home for six years, and when he came back he found that his house had been robbed!

"You don't want to?" Lu Chen's low, husky voice came from beside her ear.

Gao Xuewei bit her lip, clenching her tender lower lip without a sound, but the anger in her heart burned even more fiercely.

What kind of woman did this man take her for?

Lu Chen chuckled softly, then released his arm from around her, and said indifferently, "Since you're unwilling, then forget it."

After speaking, he sat back in his seat, his posture composed, as if the lecherous behavior from just now hadn't been him.

Gao Xuewei was stunned.

For some reason, seeing Lu Chen's calm and composed demeanor, a sense of frustration welled up in her heart.

Was he angry because she had rejected his request, or... did she simply not attract him?

Gao Xuewei's eyelashes trembled slightly, countless thoughts floated through her mind, but ultimately they turned into a long sigh, and she murmured softly:

"I'm sorry..."

Lu Chen smiled, and said lightly, "I admit I like you a little, but I also know you still have someone else in your heart. How about this, give me a hundred days. After a hundred days, if you still don't like me, I will give up my plan to pursue you and will not bother you again. How does that sound?"

Hearing this, Gao Xuewei was startled.

Her eyes looked directly at Lu Chen.

At this moment, Lu Chen appeared exceptionally quiet, his handsome and dashing face showing determination and persistence, which inexplicably made Gao Xuewei's heart skip a beat, and a peculiar feeling arose spontaneously.

These words instantly changed her impression of Lu Chen; her initial resistance and dislike for this stranger gradually dissipated.

For some reason, under the gaze of Lu Chen's eyes, she couldn't utter a word of refusal.

She had always thought Lu Chen was a philandering scoundrel, a profligate son who, relying on his Family's power, acted recklessly, bullied the weak, and was simply unworthy of her.

But these words made her start to re-examine Lu Chen.

Even if Lu Chen wasn't a good person, his willingness to patiently give her a hundred-day deadline proved that he was serious.

"A hundred days? Really... really?" Gao Xuewei asked with some uncertainty.

"Why would I lie to you? There's no benefit," Lu Chen pouted. "But I'll state the unpleasant truth upfront: during this period, you're not allowed to get too close to any male other than me. Otherwise, I won't continue to back down."

Gao Xuewei blinked, pondered for a moment, then nodded solemnly: "Then... alright, I agree."

A wicked, playful smile instantly appeared on Lu Chen's face. He extended his index finger and lightly flicked Gao Xuewei's delicate, fair nose, teasingly saying, "Then it's settled."

Gao Xuewei's heart trembled violently, a blush rising on her cheeks. She quickly dodged and said, "Then I also have a request: within these hundred days, you can't touch me inappropriately again..."

"Alright," Lu Chen readily nodded, smiling, and said, "I promise, I won't touch you inappropriately again."

"Really?" Gao Xuewei's eyes widened, sparkling with brilliant light.

She had never expected that Lu Chen would actually agree.

Lu Chen smiled and nodded, "I, Lu Chen, am a man of my word."

After a pause, he extended his hand, hooked his pinky finger, and added, "If you still don't believe me, then let's pinky swear."

Gao Xuewei blushed and shook her head, a sigh of relief instantly escaping her heart.

She had initially worried that Lu Chen would take advantage of her, but now that Lu Chen had agreed to this request, he should not make any inappropriate advances.

It's just... what if Xiao Tianyu returns within these hundred days?

As soon as this thought arose in Gao Xuewei's mind, she quickly suppressed it.

Xiao Tianyu hadn't appeared for six whole years; how could he possibly appear in just a short hundred days?

As long as she endured these 100 days, Lu Chen wouldn't bother her anymore. This deal seemed worthwhile no matter how she looked at it.

Gao Xuewei took a deep breath, expelling all the chaotic thoughts from her mind, and her emotions gradually returned to calm.

The vehicle sped down the road, gradually moving away from Tianhai City.

The car was very quiet, with no words exchanged for a while... The night deepened, and the streetlights began to glow.

A helicopter slowly descended from Tianhai City airport into the Gao Family manor, then steadily landed in the manor's courtyard.

"Whoosh..."

The cabin door opened, and Xiao Tianyu, dressed in a black robe and seething with anger, jumped directly off the plane, shouting:

"My daughter, where is my daughter!!!?"

As he spoke, two lines of scalding hot tears once again burst from his eyes!!!

The Gao Family members were still in shock and grief, completely unaware of the situation, and watched this scene with astonished expressions.

And at this moment, a rumbling sound suddenly came from outside the villa, followed by neat, uniform footsteps.

Dozens of tall, burly men in black were seen walking towards the Gao Family villa with powerful, resounding steps. With each step, the entire ground seemed to tremble.

They entered in single file, quickly surrounding the Gao Family.

The faces of the Gao Family members changed dramatically.

Xiao Tianyu, his face full of grief and indignation, his eyes bloodshot, roared hoarsely, "Where is my daughter! Where is my daughter!!!?"

Everyone was as silent as cicadas in winter, cowering in the corner, not daring to breathe.

"Speak!!! Speak quickly, where is my daughter!!!? If you don't speak, I'll flatten your Gao Family!!!"

Xiao Tianyu's forehead veins bulged with anxiety, and he roared furiously.

A middle-aged man from the Gao Family swallowed, and said with a trembling body, "Your daughter, she might... not be here anymore..."

"What!?" Xiao Tianyu's eyes suddenly widened, his entire being seemingly drained of his Soul, his lips trembling, unable to speak.

"My daughter... is gone?? Is she dead?"

After saying this, Xiao Tianyu suddenly spat out a mouthful of crimson blood, and his entire body fell straight backward, landing on the cold floor.

Everyone was startled and rushed forward.

"Hall Master!!!!"

The Gao Family man looked utterly bewildered.

Was this person an idiot?

He only said she wasn't here anymore, he didn't say she was dead!
