After disembarking from the plane, Shen An drove them back to the Shen Family Estate. Shen Ye and Su Li remained silent in the car. Su Li hardly dared to breathe; she hadn't missed the look of sheer terror in Shen Ye’s eyes when he had finally found her and pulled her tightly into his arms—the look of a man terrified of losing everything.
Once they had boarded the plane, his demeanor had shifted completely. Aside from keeping a firm grip on her hand, he hadn’t spared her a single glance. She knew he was furious—furious at her recklessness, furious that she had acted on impulse. And so, Su Li sat like a child who had committed a grave error, not daring to lift her head.
Meanwhile, the Shen Family Estate was ablaze with light. The entire Shen family was gathered in the main hall, waiting anxiously upon hearing that Shen Ye had returned. They still couldn't fathom what had happened that day; one moment everything was fine, and the next, Shen Ye had flown into a rage, interrogated Shen Hao like a madman, and dragged him off.
