Lin Wanwan initially wanted to say that she was in a hurry back then and didn’t have time to think about him at all . However, from that oppressive gaze, she understood that he was worried about her .
“Tang Chen said that the signal was blocked and we couldn’t call out . I’m sorry to have made you worry . ”
Her words didn’t alleviate Lu Zhanbei’s anger . Instead, his look was colder . “Whatever Tang Chen says, you will believe?”
Lin Wanwan replied weakly, “He shouldn’t have a need to lie to me, right?”
Looking at her innocent face, Lu Zhanbei rubbed his thin lips lightly . When he opened them again, his tone carried a trace of warning . “Stay away from Tang Chen from now on . ”
Knowing that he was in a bad mood, Lin Wanwan could only obediently agree . “Understood, I’ll take note . ”
It was strange, but Lu Zhanbei and Tang Chen didn’t seem to be enemies . However, every time they met, she would feel that they were all set for a showdown .

Lu Zhanbei’s cold look finally started to soften a little . “Let Gu Mo be by your side from now on too . ”
Seeing Lin Wanwan frown, he squinted both eyes . “You’re not willing?”
Lin Wanwan was indeed unhappy . She was used to being a lone ranger and didn’t like someone following her at all times .
Although Lu Zhanbei’s intentions were good, from what Lin Wanwan saw, overprotection was a form of disguised surveillance .
“How can I do that? What will happen to you if Gu Mo follows me? Isn’t he your best right-hand man?”
“No need to care about me . I have other arrangements . ”
“But…”

Lin Wanwan was still trying to think of an excuse to reject him when Lu Zhanbei coldly interrupted, “Enough . There’s no room for negotiation on this . ”
His overbearance made Lin Wanwan feel slightly unhappy . However, thinking about how he had treated her well in the past and had just saved her again, she could not help but sigh .
“Lu Zhanbei, can you not treat me like a child? I’m not as weak as you think I am, and I don’t want to rely on anyone to survive . ”
This sounded a little like ingratitude . After all, Lu Zhanbei had just saved her . After saying these words, Lin Wanwan started to feel regretful .
Lu Zhanbei looked at her quietly . His eyes were deep and contained so much emotions that Lin Wanwan could not read them .
She bit her lip . “Sor…”
She had not yet apologized when Lu Zhanbei interrupted her plainly . “You can think that I’m being a busybody or that I’m harassing you with unreasonable demands . I admit to all of these . However, I still have to say this . There’s no room for negotiation!”

Upon hearing this, the guilt in Lin Wanwan’s heart immediately became annoyance and anger . This man was simply too overbearing!
If Lu Zhanbei had used a soft tactic, Lin Wanwan might have compromised . However, she had always had a strong character . The more people forced her, the higher her resistance became .
“On what basis!”
“Based…”
He liked her? Worried about her?
It was useless . In her heart, she might see him liking her as a burden .
“Based on how you are eating and drinking what I’m providing and I have saved your life a couple of times . You have to listen to me!”
Upon hearing this, amidst her anger, Lin Wanwan also found it a little laughable . She stared at him and said, “Then I won’t eat and drink what you provide anymore . If anything happens to me in the future, don’t bother . Just leave me alone to die!”
“Want to burn the bridge after crossing it?” Lu Zhanbei smiled coldly . “It’s too late!”
Without giving Lin Wanwan a chance to rebut, he turned around and headed outside .
“I’ll give you two choices . Either you agree to Gu Mo staying by your side or you’re not allowed to ever step foot outside Yun Mansion again . You choose!”
After saying this, he went out of the bedroom . He did not forget to close the door with an extremely loud bang .
