When Qin Yue recovered from her injury, she started to practice martial arts in the gym at home. The few sparring partners around her had already been beaten to the ground.

Even the bodyguards who were protecting her started to fear her.

They didn’t expect the Young Miss to be so capable. She looked very much like Madam Gu Zhen from back then!

The butler arrived at the gym and said, “Young Miss, Mr. Xiao is here to see you. He’s waiting outside the manor.”

Xiao Yu didn’t have the right to enter an aristocrat’s manor as he pleased. Every time he came to look for Qin Yue, the butler or bodyguards had to inform her of his arrival.

The butler realized that after hearing Xiao Yu’s name today, Qin Yue didn’t appear as excited and shy as she usually did. Instead, she clenched her fists tightly, and her gaze became terrifying.

When Qin Yue walked out of the manor, her gaze on Xiao Yu had already turned extremely cold. She acted normally, but her body was trembling from anger and agitation.

“Darling! Have you successfully broken off the engagement?” When Xiao Yu saw Qin Yue shake her head, an almost undetectable trace of annoyance flashed across his eyes. “It’s fine, let’s take it slowly. By the way, have you bought the car?”

Xiao Yu’s gentle voice made Qin Yue’s heart tremble in fear. She couldn’t help but recall the way he looked before he killed her.

“Oh, you wanted me to help you buy a new car?” Qin Yue felt as though there were small but sharp rocks stuck in her throat, and every word she said was extremely strenuous. She tried her best to keep her voice calm. “But… I don’t have the money to buy a car anymore. My credit card has been frozen by my father. In fact, I wanted to borrow some money from you.”

Xiao Yu was stunned. He didn’t expect Qin Yue to suddenly ask him for money.

“I… I don’t have any money on me!” He was planning to drive the new car to the most expensive bar tonight, so how could he lend any money to Qin Yue?

“I haven’t even said how much I want to borrow. I gave you so much money previously, where did you spend it all?” Qin Yue glanced at Xiao Yu.

In the past, Qin Yue’s love was very humbling. She always felt inferior because of her looks, so she tried her best to please Xiao Yu. She gave him whatever he wanted, because she was afraid that he would abandon her.

“Of.. Of course, I spent it all on the project.” Xiao Yu was a little angry, but he still suppressed his anger and lied with a smile. Since Qin Yue’s family was so rich, wasn’t it natural for her to spend money on him? Why did she suddenly ask such an overboard question?

“I was the one who provided the funds for the project. When have you ever invested in it?” Qin Yue glared at him.

Xiao Yu felt that there was something different about Qin Yue today. Although she looked as ugly as usual, her aura seemed to have changed a lot.

“Darling, how could you doubt me? Also, you promised me that you would give me the car today!” Xiao Yu was really anxious. He grabbed Qin Yue’s arm and shook it. He had never been rejected by her before.

When Xiao Yu touched Qin Yue, her gaze immediately turned vicious. She suddenly raised her leg and kicked hard at Xiao Yu’s stomach. The latter cried out in pain and was sent flying, his back smashing into the wall.

Xiao Yu sat on the ground and held his stomach, almost fainting from the pain. He looked at Qin Yue, his face pale, and his eyes filled with disbelief.

What was wrong with this ugly woman? Why was she so strong?

“I treated you so well, but you lost your temper at me over a car, and now, you’re even shouting at me?” When Qin Yue saw that Xiao Yu was trying to get up from the ground, she ruthlessly stepped on his shoulder.

Xiao Yu was stunned. Qin Yue, who usually stuck to him like a puppy, actually lost her temper!

“My dear, my darling, you’re mistaken. I wasn’t shouting at you!” Xiao Yu looked at the bodyguards behind Qin Yue, and didn’t dare to shout at her like he usually did. He could only explain himself softly.

“Since you don’t care about me, let’s break up!”

“I was wrong! Don’t be angry, Qin Yue! It’s all my fault! I apologize to you!” Xiao Yu didn’t expect her to break up with him. When he saw that she was leaving, he immediately crawled over and hugged her leg, apologizing profusely. If she broke up with him now, his plan would be ruined!

“I don’t want to see you now!” Qin Yue grabbed Xiao Yu’s hair and slapped him hard. Xiao Yu released his grip and covered his mouth, then lay on the ground and groaned in pain.

This man actually dared to touch her. How disgusting!

In a black convertible not far from the manor, a middle-aged man wearing a pair of sunglasses put out the cigar in his hand. He looked at Qin Yue and Xiao Yu, then took out his phone and made a call. “It’s time to take action.”
