Chapter 8 Exposed

• An Xiaoxiao remained silent while the chauffeur was dumbstruck.
• Why do I feel so embarrassed? Mr. Zhan, could it be that my mind is corrupted?
• An Xiaoxiao's little face flushed.
• Too embarrassed to look at him, she lowered her head shyly as the image she saw last night kept floating in her mind.
• His chest muscles, abs, Apollo's belt, and further down... God!
• An Xiaoxiao dared not think further. She felt her face burn to a deeper shade of red.
• “We,” suddenly, her ear heated up as a deep and husky voice breathed, “shall keep each other's secret.”
• An Xiaoxiao's whole body stiffened. She thought she was going to melt from the scalding hot breath that came out of Zhan Lengrui.
• After a short while, she slowly turned her head only to meet his deep gaze.
• His eyes were mind-blowingly enchanting.
• Seeing him from such a close distance, An Xiaoxiao's already accelerated heartbeat hastened as if it was about to jump out from her chest.
• She gaped at him in silence, and faltered after a while. “Keep what secret?”
• “Mine and...” Zhan Lengrui's lips tugged into a wicked grin.
• “And what?” An Xiaoxiao was a little bewildered. With a sudden chill down her spine, she felt an incoming bad premonition.
• “And your size.” At that, Zhan Lengrui glanced at her chest astutely.
• Size? Oh, size!
• The night she jumped into his arms; she wasn't the only one who had a little secret!
• An Xiaoxiao subconsciously hugged her chest, agonizing, “But you're my uncle. You can't bully me. I'm your niece!”
• “We are not related in any way!” Zhan Lengrui raised his brows. “Don't make me repeat myself!”
• It was the first time An Xiaoxiao saw this side of him.
• She could believe that the man who was usually ascetic and cool had suddenly turned into a dangerous and evil demon.
• Zhan Lengrui was staring at her straight in the eyes, just like last night.
• An Xiaoxiao couldn't recognize the man before her, and she replied weakly, “Okay.”
• Zhan Lengrui grinned in contentment, but the next moment, the smile on his lips vanished.
• An Xiaoxiao who was still drowning in his irresistible charm couldn't keep up with his train of thought.
• With a stony face, he called her by her full name, “An Xiaoxiao, now tell me, what's with the truancy and absenteeism?”
• It was then that An Xiaoxiao snapped back to attention when she felt the sudden drop of temperature in the car.
• Thereafter, she saw Zhan Lengrui's handsome face magnify before her eyes, and that his gaze was cold.
• She couldn't help but swallow a lump in her throat. “Uncle, why didn't you ask me why I hit someone?”
• “I can help to defend you if you have hit someone,” Zhan Lengrui said condescendingly, “but if you don't go to school and get into college, An Xiaoxiao, are you planning to join me in the army?”
• “Of course not!” An Xiaoxiao raised her voice in protest. She knew she would hate the military training.
• He seems to be overly concerned about my studies.
• “Uncle, thank you for helping me today. But, whether I study or not, it's my business. I don't think it has anything to do with you.”
• Zhan Lengrui snorted, “You're saying that I have no right to control your life?”
• An Xiaoxiao wanted to nod at first. That's right. That's what I meant.
• But, she didn't dare.
• In front of Zhan Lengrui, she was actually quite a wimp.
• When he saw her lowering her head, his gaze softened. “You call me uncle and I went to your school today as your parent. Am I not qualified to control you?”
• God knew how happy he was when he received her call today.
• He liked her dependence, and it was more of a surprise to him that it came out of nowhere.
• An Xiaoxiao was taken aback. Uncle, parent...
• It didn't occur to her before that Zhan Lengrui would really go to her school as her parent and speak up for her before that trashy principal.
• If he was really my biological uncle and not Zhan Mingmei's younger brother, how great that would be.
• Her eyes warmed and she wanted to cry, but she hurriedly took a deep breath and forced her tears back.
• Then, she lifted her head and looked into his eyes, nodding. “I'll try to study hard from now on then.”
• “Try?” Zhan Lengrui was not too happy with that word.
• An Xiaoxiao pouted. “I want to improve my academic performance too, but I've missed so many classes. It's too late for me to catch up now. Otherwise, why would I try to get your nude pictures for Lin Mengran in exchange for the test paper answers?”
