    Chapter 35 Prisoner Cats also protect dogs!

    “It’ll be fine if you come.”

    Ruan Siyu said softly that for a long time, he didn’t hear what he said clearly.

    The conversation with Lawrence somewhat stimulated his keen nerves.Ruan Siyu knew that he was damaged and abnormal. The somatic reaction caused by a few words made his vision blurred and bizarre, and his memory changed from smooth lines to blurred spots, intermittent.

    This doesn’t mean he will lose or be useless.Ruan Siyu knows very well that he can restrain his abnormal reactions. Even if he makes himself appear irritable and uneasy, he will not show timidity and never shows timidity.

    Ruan Siyu has already said what needs to be said. Lawrence’s choice is definitely expected, that is, she will pay to silence him.This is not surprising, because Lawrence’s fear of Evelyn Ference is absolute, and Lawrence has too much, her life is too full, and she cannot afford to gamble compared to his having nothing.

    On the card table, if you show cowardice, you will never be able to win against the unscrupulous desperado.

    So he won the bet, and his body’s strange reaction was within his expectations.He actually knew the source of his weakness, post-traumatic stress reaction, a disease that has a specific name in psychology.But a name cannot solve any problem. In reality, Ruan Siyu only feels strong self-loathing and disgusting weakness.

    Until Schneider arrived.

    Schneider’s appearance in front of Lawrence was an accident, not Ruan Siyu’s special arrangement.He still doesn’t know why he sent Schneider that text message and wholeheartedly believed it would be ignored.

    Please, that text message only had four words, I’m not feeling well, I’m not feeling well.It does not contain any element of begging for mercy, nor any deliberate flattery, nor any expectations that cannot be expressed verbally. It is more like an exposition of facts, a confession of despair, and a helpless confession.

    Ruan Siyu swore that he did not use a text message to pray for Schneider’s mercy and care, nor did he use his own weakness to provoke Schneider’s feelings. He was not desperate enough.

    But here comes Schneider.He appeared in front of Ruan Siyu easily, and it was not until his appearance that Ruan Siyu realized the desire in his heart.

    He had never longed for the presence of another person so much, not even his mother.What is this?Is it a conditioned reflex formed by habits, a psychological dependence cultivated by money and care, or does it mean that even when Ruan Siyu doesn’t want to admit it, he is still like a weak ordinary person, unable to resist the care and intimacy from the same kind?

    He calmed down in Schneider’s arms, and his usual, easy-going smile appeared on his lips again:

    “Why are you here? I didn’t ask you to come.”

    Schneider looked at him intently, scanning the smile on his lips, and his eyes seemed to dim:

    “If you say you’re not feeling well, I’ll definitely come.”

    Ruan Siyu pursed her lips, pressed a kiss behind Schneider’s ear, and said nothing more.There was an atmosphere that did not need to be announced, harmonious and peaceful, so that Schneider, a sugar daddy with a fatherly temperament, did not propose any new prohibitions.

    “Zhiqua——”

    There was a soft sound on the stairs of the coffee shop, and the tall female lawyer left a panicked and silent figure behind her.The glass frame in the stairwell reflected her expression. When their eyes met briefly, Ruan Siyu could see the fear and panic in Lawrence’s eyes.

    Ruan Siyu knew that the fear was directed at the man holding him in his arms. Schneider’s appearance made Lawrence lose any ability to be mean, giving Ruan Siyu enough confidence to pretend to be powerful.

    This was not Ruan Siyu’s plan, but he had nothing to complain about.It works great, doesn’t it?This sugar daddy is great value for money.

    He kissed Schneider’s chin with satisfaction, and was pleased with everything about the mixed-race man – his stone-hard muscles, his eye color that was so light that it triggered the uncanny valley effect, his cold face and full daddy look, and his hands that were too broad and stretched too long.

    Everywhere is satisfying.

    Ruan Siyu stood up and looked at the time on her watch: 16:17.His working time has not yet come. Even if he gets what he wants in this part-time job, it does not mean that he does not respect this labor contract.

    “I’m going to work for two more hours, sir. If you’d like, I can make you a cup of coffee.”

    Ruan Siyu tilted her head, and her warm fingers traced the folds of Schneider’s collar, causing the man to breathe quickly, look gloomy, and his eyes suddenly turned evil:

    “I thought your goal had been achieved. Did I misread the dissatisfaction and fear on the face of the self-involved lawyer? Every move you made was intentional, which is not surprising, but your method will inevitably hurt the enemy a thousand times and damage yourself eight hundred. You obviously have better channels. If you want to meet anyone, I can let them come to you on their own initiative. There is no need for you to come to a coffee shop to work as a cashier or waiter.”

    “Besides, why do you think the paintings in her hand are important? I said, I can buy you any authentic work with money. Don’t you like Impressionism? A pair of water lilies by Monet is being auctioned. I can go to Vegas to pick up the painting tomorrow, and you can go with me. As for the numbers in the crypto bank, they are even more irrelevant to you. How much do you want?”

    The man stood in front of Ruan Siyu, his face was cold and almost arrogant. From every detail in his expression, it could be seen that he really regarded money as dirt. No, for a trustworthy man like him who came from old money, he would not disrespect money, because he knew that money and power gave him the confidence to be superior to others, but money was just a number to him.

    Every word he said was correct, but Ruan Siyu was still stunned by his father.A few weeks earlier, Ruan Siyu would have thought that Schneider’s display of arrogance was for the purpose of insulting and amusing himself, highlighting the vastly different identities between them, allowing Ruan Siyu to recognize his own position and carefully taste the powerlessness that comes with having a low status and being controlled by others.

    But now, Ruan Siyu was almost sure that Schneider was not showing off his arrogance in order to humiliate him, because the other party was arrogant itself. Behind his superficial malice and desire to control was the other party’s eagerness to help.

    It’s strange, a person in a high position is eager to help, doing everything to get closer to their relationship, tightly intertwining their fate and future. Every part is wrong, but Schneider has never been normal, and Ruan Siyu is used to it.

    So he just smiled and didn’t take it seriously:

    “I want what Lawrence owes me. I want what I deserve, and I can get it for myself without your help, sir. You’ve helped enough.”

    “I haven’t done enough, and you don’t trust me, so I force you to continue to do these ridiculous things. If the money itself is not worth what you do, are you doing it for revenge? Lawrence is an asset lawyer for the rich, and one of her main roles is to help people deal with dirty money legally, hiding it from the clients’ wives, husbands, children or partners. With just a few phone calls, I can have her banned by the entire industry tomorrow, and hunted to the ends of the earth by the clients she betrayed.”

    “Does she know about Slave Island? That’s even better, I can let her have a taste -”

    He held Ruan Siyu’s hand, his arrogant expression tainted with disgust and malice, which was directed at Lawrence, but Ruan Siyu suddenly interrupted him, and the smile on his lips turned pale, engraved on his fair face:

    “Stop talking!”

    He pulled Schneider deeper into the corner so that their figures were completely obscured by bookshelves and green plants.His soft body pressed tightly against Schneider, covering Schneider’s tall body in an almost ridiculous protective posture:

    “This has nothing to do with you, don’t ever mention it again, okay? We agreed, my matter ends here, I -”

    He paused, stretched out his pale fingers to hold Schneider’s cheek, raised his face and looked at Schneider, his dark eyes shrouded in the glistening, dense water:

    “——I will never ask you to do this, and you should not do it. You have a career, a company, a companion, a future, and a family. No matter how different you are, you are still a member of an old money family. Maybe you and your family have not participated in those things, but capital and family are connected, and you should not be involved in these! I never expected——I will never want you to be involved in these things. Even for you, it is unnecessary and dangerous.”

    “No need?”

    Schneider restrained Ruan Siyu’s wrist and pinched his waist with the other hand:

    “You never tell me the truth, Ruan Siyu. Your plans, your future, and even your past! You don’t expect me to do anything beyond your plan, because I am never in your plan, and you never want me to know you. I can only listen through monitoring-”

    Ruan Siyu’s suddenly cold expression made Schneider stop accusing him. He stared at Ruan Siyu’s face, as if he was ready to deal with Ruan Siyu’s outburst at any time.

    But Ruan Siyu didn’t say anything. He just stepped closer, placed a cold kiss on the corner of Schneider’s lips, and said softly:

    “That’s it. I can’t look directly at that past, and I don’t want to look back on that past, and it has nothing to do with who I am now. If you are not exploring those things just to humiliate me like other people who know the truth, don’t mention it again. The matter of Ferens is over here, I have nothing to do with them, and you don’t want me to go back to that quagmire, right?”

    There was a breathtaking calmness in his eyes that made Schneider’s heart palpitate. He couldn’t refuse, so he pursed his lips and nodded reluctantly.

    “Very good, sir.”

    Ruan Siyu smiled and outlined Schneider’s cheekbones appreciatively: “I’m going back to work. The miners have been working for too long, and the boss should blame him.”

    “I don’t think your boss is qualified. The gossip he makes to customers and the time he wastes make you look conscientious.”

    Schneider’s words only elicited a warning look from Ruan Siyu, which made him freeze in place – this feeling was very familiar, as if the flames of an explosion he experienced when he was sixteen were still flowing in his veins.

    He became Ruan Siyu’s prisoner again, allowing Ruan Siyu to drag the reins around his neck.
