"You can let go of me now!"

Right after leaving the Six Doors Organization building, Luo Puti shook off Chen Xiaobei who was hugging her waist.

"Honey! You can't do this to me! My heart melted when you called me your hubby just now! And now you are going to treat me like a stranger again?"

With a smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei hugged Luo Puti again.

"Stop acting dumb in front of me! The reason I called you hubby just now was to make Yue Junmo angry! I was just using you as a tool to make him go away! You should feel angry!" said Luo Puti in an icy tone as she stepped away from him.

"Hehe… You won't use me as a tool if I don't have a special place in your heart! How can I get angry when I know that I'm special to you?" said Chen Xiaobei cheerfully.

"Stop being so full of yourself! All the men in this world are too mean! You do not have a special place in my heart!"

"I wonder who was the one that cried for me when we were in Luo Yang? The person even wanted to die together with me!"

Luo Puti was tongue-tied, her face red.

"And I wonder who was the one that asked me to run for my life? The person was willing to stay behind to buy me some time!"

"You are so damn annoying! As a man, you shouldn't keep harping on the past!"

Embarrassed, Luo Puti was trying to act like an ice-cold queen but she somehow failed to do so.

"Alright! Let's talk about the present! Who is the one that held on tight to the flower that I gave her? I can see that she's taking really good care of it!"

"I…"

Taken aback, she suddenly realized that she placed the flower that Chen Xiaobei gave her in her breast pocket like a piece of valuable treasure. Seemingly, she was afraid that something might crush it. This little act was done unconsciously.

"Actually, I know that you have always liked me. There's only a thin barrier placed between us! Allow me to break it please!"

Smiling at Luo Puti, Chen Xiaobei started to walk toward her.

"How are you going to break it?

Feeling nervous, her face was as red as an overripe tomato.

"Did you just act dumb in front of me? You are the one that told Yue Jumo just now that you are going to do some naughty stuff with me when we are back home! Hehehe…" he said with an evil smile.

"My ass! You are just like that Yue Junmo! You are not a good man as well! Stay away from me!"

"How did Yue Junmo offend you? Judging from his kind appearance, he doesn't look like a bad guy! All he did was trying to snatch away the woman that I love from me! That is one crime that I cannot forgive!"

"I don't want to talk about him!"

"Just tell me about it! I can always help you no matter how big the problem is! It's useless that you keep it for yourself! Look at that! It's been ten years! You would have solved it if you are capable of doing so!" said Chen Xiaobei after he wiped off the evil smile on his face.

"You can't help me! And I don't want to drag you into my problem!" said Luo Puti in a slightly angry tone.

"Just cut the crap! We are now husband and wife! Can you stop saying that you don't want to drag me into your problem? People are going laugh at us if they overhear our conversation!"

Upon hearing that, Luo Puti acted in an even more ice-cold manner. She then glared at Chen Xiaobei with her soulful eyes.

"Stop glaring at me! Set aside my love for you, we have been through many life-threatening situations! Shouldn't you put your trust in me to help you?!"

Finally, her frozen heart started to melt after hearing Chen Xiaobei's respond.

'He is actually right about that! I've been through more than one perilous situation with him!'

Unconsciously, Chen Xiaobei had become her most trusted ally. She also knew that he was the only person in this world that would listen to her problem and help her.

After hesitating for some time, she decided to tell him everything.

"Five years ago, there was an elder from Mount Hua Faction who suffered from serious illness. At that time, my father was known as the successor of Nine Needles Luo! That was why he decided to take my grandpa's place to cure him! And my mom and I went with him since we had nothing to do. We saw that as our family trip."

"The first day when I arrived at Mount Hua, I got to know Yue Junmo. We were still teenagers. That was why he came to pursue me with a bold and open heart. At that time, I could be considered as an outgoing girl. So, I did not say yes to him or reject him."

"After that, we spent quite a long time staying at Mount Hua. During that period, Yue Junmo treated me really kindly. I gradually developed feelings for him. However, when I had mustered enough courage to confess to him, I saw him being intimate with another woman..."

Luo Puti suddenly paused. An ice-cold look was reflected in her eyes. Clearly, she was reminded of something sad.

"Ugh… We all have loved trash when we were young! You should be glad that you get to see his true colors before falling deeper into his trap!"

"Right! That's what I think as well! So, I did not interrupt them. After that, I ran to the top of Mount Hua and let the cold breeze calm myself down! He's just an asshole! He's not worthy for me to shed a teardrop for him! Fortunately, I still had my pride with me! But… I found out that my parents were gone when I came down from the top of the mountain…"

"I have tried to ask everyone that I know and even search the entire Mount Hua! After that, I started to call them until the battery on my cell phone was drained completely! And my grandpa did try to ask everything that he knew to help us to look for my parents… Still, we couldn't locate them. I really hate myself! And I hate that asshole! My parents would not disappear into thin air if I didn't go and look for that asshole! I shouldn't have gone to the top of the mountain to calm myself down as well!"

"I would've rather stayed with them and disappear together with them!"

Luo Puti could not help but begin to cry after telling Chen Xiaobei her problem.

"How did that happen…"

Taken aback, Chen Xiaobei suddenly realized a lot of things that he did not understand about Luo Puti previously.

Why did she hate men?

Why did she get angry every time when someone mentioned sex?

Why did she close her heart like an ice mountain?

Now, the answer was clear. All these while, she took the sadness of losing her parents with her. She blamed herself for not protecting her parents.

Why did she refuse to be married to a man from a rich family and instead joined the Six Doors Organization?

Why did she let Poseidon to control her life?

Why did she try her best to be promoted to chief inspector?

All these questions were answered as well. Clearly, she wanted to rely on the resources of Six Doors Organization to look for her parents. That was the time when Chen Xiaobei realized that this was the first time he truly understood Luo Puti.

"Puti. Relax! I know that you have buried all those in your heart for a very long time.

Chen Xiaobei brought Luo Puti into his embrace and caressed her gently.

"Now. You have me! Leave this matter to me! I will not call you my wife until I solve this matter for you!"
