Chapter 89: Chapter 89 Return the Car (Massive Update Chapter 8)

"No need, I’ve been delayed outside long enough, it’s time to go home," Xu Ke said, brushing away Brother Long’s hand from his shoulder.

"It’s not safe to go back now. That little bastard is vengeful and petty. You’ve caused him to lose so many boxing rings, he definitely won’t let you go. Stay with me for a couple of days until their surveillance relaxes, then I’ll find a chance to get you back. I’ll talk to your wife for you," Brother Long said, looking serious and worried.

"Don’t make excuses for me to handle those things for you. You know I can hide, and no one can catch me."

Xu Ke glanced at Brother Long with undisguised contempt in his eyes. Brother Long, being exposed, didn’t feel awkward, just stroked his beard and changed the subject as if nothing had happened. Xu Ke didn’t expose him further. The two chatted a while longer before Xu Ke finally went home.

Huge dark circles and bags under her eyes made her look like a ghost from a movie.

"Oh, my dear, you finally came out. Look at your little face, are you hungry? Let me get you some food," Li Lihua said, shooting up from her seat like a rocket when she saw Lin Mengchen finally step out from her room. She hugged Lin Mengchen, touching her and patting her like a caring mother.

against Xu Ke a few times and being put in her place, Li Lihua had become much more humble, no longer directing household chores at Xu Ke but doing them herself. Conversely, the relationship between Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao and the family became increasingly tense, especially after Li Lihua took away the invite from the Yun family, causing the already fragile bond to crack wide open, ready
