Time seemed to have stopped for a long while, or perhaps it was just a few seconds. Xiao Chen in front of them raised the corners of his mouth slightly, with a mischievous smile filled with temptation.
"If I'm not mistaken, this is Young Master Jue, the owner of Ciaos?" His voice always had a magnetic allure to it.
Since he spoke in this manner, Shi Aoju found no need to address the obvious.
"Hmm." He replied in a deep voice, his facial expression remaining as it always was, exuding an innate, unapproachable sternness.
Hearing Shi Aoju's voice, Su Jiuyi finally came to her senses, her eyes widened as she stared at Xiao Chen, looking fearless.
Su Jiuyi wasn't like Qi Jingren who had been through many similar incidents and was used to such situations. For an ordinary person like her, encountering a murderer would naturally fill her with fear like anyone else.
But Shi Aoju's voice reminded her that he was still by her side, so in that instant, her body was filled with courage.
