Luo Tiantian had originally planned to avoid that scumbag, but after only a few steps, he blocked her way.
She looked up with a sullen face, eyes hostile as she glared at the handsome man before her.
He was dressed in a white casual sports outfit, standing about 180 centimeters tall.
Baby face, big eyes.
Long lashes, curled and thick, his skin looked translucent and fair even under the sun.
Right now, he was grinning foolishly, dimples clear as day.
Especially those two little canine teeth—just looking at them made Luo Tiantian's hands itch, wanting to yank them out.
"You've got the wrong person." Luo Tiantian turned her gaze away in disgust, speaking coldly.
The man didn't seem to expect her to say that, and instantly looked hurt.
He opened his mouth, aggrieved but hesitant, "Candy..."
Luo Tiantian's face turned darker, her glare even more hostile.
"Scram."
With that, she brushed past him and left.
This man was the original owner's second brother.
Also the famous forensic doctor of expensive city—Luo Mi.
Despite his deceptively innocent baby face, he was ruthless and meticulous.
He excelled at using his looks to deceive targets, easily winning their trust.
In the novel, he was the heroine's number one follower.
When the original owner was imprisoned, not only did this man show no sympathy, he even used her for various experiments.
You could say, he was responsible for half of all her suffering.
After all, compared to betrayal and torment from friends,
what truly broke the original owner was the hurt from her own brother.
"Lit..."
Luo Mi pressed his lips together.
He watched helplessly as his sister avoided him like he was the Plague God, entering that skyscraper.
Lowering his eyes, he hid the world-destroying hatred in them.
Watching his little sister's retreating figure, he gave a bitter smile, "Sis, your brother... really knows he was wrong."
Once, he had spoiled her as if she was his life.
But in the end, he was the one who pushed her into the abyss.
He stretched out his pale hands, as if seeing, in his past life, scenes of his sister's blood staining them red.
He murmured to himself: If it weren't for that thirst for personal revenge, if only...
He took a deep breath and looked up at the towering building.
Then he turned and left without a backward glance.

Luo Tiantian had just entered the building when she was stopped by the receptionist.
"Miss, may I ask who you're here to see?"
"..." Luo Tiantian glanced at the receptionist, forcing down her irritation after running into that jerk.
She squeezed out a faint smile. "I'm looking for Xue Feimo. Is he in?"
The receptionist's eyes flashed with understanding, and she smiled sweetly. "Miss, do you have an appointment?"
"Appointment?"
Luo Tiantian frowned. Didn't the housekeeper tell them she was coming?
"Yes, Miss. If you don't have an appointment, you can schedule one and visit again." The receptionist was polite.
"...Alright, I'll make a call and check."
She took out her phone from her bag and dialed Xue Feimo's number.
Perhaps because it was a private line, the call was answered almost instantly.
"Who is this?"
The husky voice sounded tired. Luo Tiantian could practically picture the scene on the other end.
For some reason, hearing that voice made her nose sting. "Uncle~"
If Qiaoqiao were here, he'd definitely beat the crap out of Luo Mi, wouldn't he?
Luo Tiantian mused to herself.
"..." An awkward silence fell over the call.
After a long while, the man finally spoke. "What's wrong?"
Luo Tiantian sniffled. "I just ran into some pervert—he wanted to grab me for experiments."
"...Where are you?"
Xue Feimo couldn't help kneading his brow.
Not believing a word of the kid's nonsense.
"At the front door of your company. The lady here says I need an appointment to see you..."
