Sheng Youxia gave him a sidelong glance.
"I don't want to die for nothing." Fu Shilv stared at her slightly swollen lips.
If only she could respond to him, wrapping her tongue around his, that would be great.
"You won't die," Sheng Youxia pressed her ear against the door panel, "Fu Shilv, buck up. The Fu Family has only one son like you. What would your parents and grandfather do if you died? No one would be there to protect Caicai either."
Her words made it sound as though Fu Shilv was struggling on his deathbed.
"Am I that important?"
"Of course. Caicai doesn't have a boyfriend yet. If she gets one in the future and gets married but her partner treats her poorly, it'll be up to you to stand up for her."
Just like Sheng Youxia had Sheng Tianyi and Gao Min, as their sister, she wanted to be their shield from the storms.
"So, am I important to you?" Fu Shilv asked.
Sheng Youxia heard the knocking had moved next door.
