Real Identity

Shen Wuxiao took her hand and gently stroked it. "If you're hurting in your heart, I'll still allow you to vent a little."

Jiang Huaiyue looked at him with slight reproach. "Have you got it wrong? You want your woman to be upset over other men?"

Shen Wuxiao traced circles in her palm. "He was a comrade, after all. There had to be some bond between you, no matter what!"

Jiang Huaiyue shook her head. "I never regret the decisions I make. Once we part, we become strangers on the road!"

As she spoke, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly as she stared straight at Shen Wuxiao. "I want to ask you instead—aren't you jealous at all?"

Jiang Huaiyue looked adorably furious.

Shen Wuxiao smiled. "What is there to be jealous about? Could it be that I should cling to the past and refuse to let go? Besides, you and him really were just comrades!"

Jiang Huaiyue nodded. "That's true!"

But in the next second, Jiang Huaiyue seemed to realize an even more serious problem.

She climbed straight from the passenger seat into the driver's seat and sat on Shen Wuxiao's lap, grabbing his collar as she faced him.

"I have a question. You have to answer me honestly!"

Shen Wuxiao followed suit and wrapped an arm around her slender waist. "Ask!"

Jiang Huaiyue said seriously, "I'm your woman, right?"

"Of course!"

"Fine. Since I'm your woman, isn't it rather absurd that I, as your woman, don't even know your name?"

"You keep saying Sima, but that's only a surname. So what exactly is your name?"

A smile remained on Shen Wuxiao's face. "How about you guess?"

Shen Wuxiao also felt it was time to lay everything bare.

Now that she and Lin Fan had broken apart, it was better to say some things sooner rather than later.

Otherwise, if he revealed his identity later, Jiang Huaiyue definitely would not be able to accept it right away.

"Guess? How am I supposed to guess? It's your name—how could I possibly guess it? Could it be that your real name is actually Shen Wuxiao?"

Jiang Huaiyue said it like a joke.

Shen Wuxiao merely revealed a gentle smile and said nothing.

Jiang Huaiyue froze at once. "You... you really are Shen Wuxiao?"

Shen Wuxiao nodded. "Yes. Shen Wuxiao!"

Jiang Huaiyue could hardly believe it and raised a hand to cover her little mouth!

Within the Heavenly Wolf Squad, Jiang Huaiyue had been the strategist. Her mind was unquestionably sharp.

Yet at that moment, her mind went blank.

After a long while, she finally spoke. "You... you didn't lie to me?"

"No. I merely acknowledged my identity at the appropriate time," Shen Wuxiao said bluntly.

Now Jiang Huaiyue believed that the man in front of her was truly Shen Wuxiao.

She was shocked, but at the same time, an inexplicable ache rose in her heart.

Her whole body trembled slightly.

Jiang Huaiyue closed her eyes and thought through every single thing that had happened since coming to Zhonghai!

After a long time, she looked at Shen Wuxiao. "That Manager Xie at the hotel was one of your people. You had him guide me to find you!"

"Yes." Shen Wuxiao nodded.

"That pair of Twin Fiends were also your people..."

Shen Wuxiao nodded. "Yes. They were bodyguards my family arranged for me!"

"And everything between us, step by step, was also part of your scheme..." Jiang Huaiyue suddenly felt like crying.

Shen Wuxiao still nodded. "Yes. It was despicable, but if I had to do it over again, I would still do the same!"

Jiang Huaiyue's eyes had already reddened, a mist of tears shrouding them.

Crystal tears rolled down her cheeks.

Her lips trembled slightly.

Shen Wuxiao's heart ached at the sight. He raised a hand and wiped away her tears.

"Then... then what about you... your feelings for me? Were they just an act for the occasion, or... another scheme..."

Jiang Huaiyue was suddenly terrified, terrified that Shen Wuxiao would give her an answer.

She was afraid Shen Wuxiao would say that she no longer had any value to use, or something like that.

After all, he had come for Lin Fan. Cutting off Lin Fan's wings had also been one of his goals.

If that were truly the case, she would definitely collapse.

But Shen Wuxiao did not hesitate. He decisively shook his head.

He gently pulled Jiang Huaiyue into his arms and stroked her beautiful hair.

"Some things go both ways. While I was scheming against you, wasn't I also drawing myself into that scheme?"

"I may be cruel, but I have feelings too. My feelings for you contain not a shred of falsehood!"

"The reason I'm telling you everything now is because I was afraid that the later you found out, the harder it would be for you to accept!"

Jiang Huaiyue remained silent for a long time before giving a soft "Mm" and hugging Shen Wuxiao tightly.

Shen Wuxiao patted her back. "I'll give you time to process it!"

Jiang Huaiyue said nothing and simply held him like that.

After a long while, she finally spoke. "Can we not go out anymore? I'm a little sleepy!"

"Alright!" Shen Wuxiao immediately opened the car door and carried Jiang Huaiyue out.

Then he headed toward the villa.

After reaching the villa, he went straight into the room and placed Jiang Huaiyue on the bed.

He lay down beside her as well.

He pulled the blanket over them.

Jiang Huaiyue had not said a word the entire time. She simply held Shen Wuxiao.

Shen Wuxiao responded in the most direct way.

He pressed his forehead against Jiang Huaiyue's, their eyes meeting.

In the next second, Shen Wuxiao kissed her directly.

Feeling Shen Wuxiao's kiss, Jiang Huaiyue gradually began to respond as well.

Passionate!

In the end, it became...

Clothes scattered across the floor, and the atmosphere grew scorching hot.

Only after a long time did everything return to calm.

After that, the faint barrier that seemed to have arisen between them completely dissolved.

Jiang Huaiyue gradually recovered as well.

She looked at Shen Wuxiao and let out a long sigh. "I never expected a bad man like you to be so deeply calculating!"

"Do you know how frightened I was when you said you were Shen Wuxiao?"

"Were you really that scared?" Shen Wuxiao teased.

Jiang Huaiyue raised her hand and smacked his chest. "You heartless thing. What do you think?"

"Alright, but rest a hundred percent assured. I, Shen Wuxiao, may not be a good man, but my feelings for you are real. You don't need to be afraid!"

Jiang Huaiyue had also let it go.

But she was still somewhat angry.

This bad man had schemed against her so thoroughly.

From beginning to end, it had all been a scheme!

Back then, she had wondered how those two experts, the Twin Fiends, could have such strange tastes.

They were clearly ruthless people, yet they neither killed nor made a move. Instead, they threw her and Shen Wuxiao onto a bed.

So it was not that those two had strange tastes. It was the bad man before her who had been behind it all.

"How did you know I would come to Zhonghai because of Lin Fan?"

Jiang Huaiyue wanted an explanation as well.

Shen Wuxiao laughed loudly. "Settling accounts after autumn, are we? Fine, I'll tell you. Do you believe that there isn't a single thing in the entire Dragon Kingdom that I don't know?"

Jiang Huaiyue nodded. "I do!"

"I'm not from Zhonghai. I'm from the Imperial Capital. My Shen Family is the number one lineage in the Dragon Kingdom. Do you know Shen Tianhong?"

Jiang Huaiyue froze, then nodded. "I know. The strongest person in the Dragon Kingdom!"

"Mm. My father—your father-in-law!"

Jiang Huaiyue was utterly astonished as well.

Such an existence was actually her father-in-law. She could not help but be shocked.

But very soon, she grabbed Shen Wuxiao by the ear. "My father-in-law is the strongest person, so why are you so weak?"

Shen Wuxiao was speechless.

Still, he really had been weak before.

"I'm not weak anymore, am I? I'm the only one who can use Domain Time Stop. Do you really think it was those Twin Fiends?"

Only then did Jiang Huaiyue remember, and she immediately did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Then what rank are you?"

"Sixth Rank, Fifth Stage!" Shen Wuxiao replied.

This left Jiang Huaiyue rather surprised.

So he had been hiding his true abilities all along!
