Yang Xuening threatened. It was clear that she was asking for money. She had listened to her lover's advice and invested all the money she got from the divorce and the mortgage on the house in her lover's business. However, the business failed to get off the ground and she was now in debt.Hence, she wanted to use Guo Xinli's shop to settle the debt.Guo Xinli's face turned red. His ex-wife's shameless threat put him in a dilemma.Zhuo Qianyun took one step forward and looked coldly at Yang Xuening. "Lil Guo and I are just friends. Be ready to bear the consequences if you want to spread rumors. I’ll sue whoever dares spread rumors about me till the end. I'll sue you until you lose all your money. I’ll make you publish a statement and apologize to me in the newspaper!"Zhuo Qianyun exuded a harsh chill as if she would do anything to protect the people who mattered most to her!Her aura crushed Yang Xuening and made her gasp for breath.Step by step, Zhuo Qianyun approached Yang Xu
She knew that Guo Xinli's main income now came from his shop. If he lost his shop, he and his daughter would suffer greatly."It's okay if she wants to come here and make a scene again, but don't give in too much to her. If you give in once, there’ll be many more times in the future. You'll be left with no choice in the end!" Zhuo Qianyun warned him.Guo Xinli said, "Okay, I got it. Let me know if she bothers you again."Their concern for each other stung Ye Wenming's eyes.Guo Xinli then turned to Ye Wenming and said, "Mr. Ye, thank you for just now!""You’re thanking me?" Ye Wenming sneered. "I'm just helping Qianyun out. You don't need to thank me."The ‘thank you’ made it sound like they were together, while he was just an outsider!Guo Xinli was instantly embarrassed.Zhuo Qianyun looked at Ye Wenming. "Why did you come?""Would you believe me if I said I came over because I missed you and Lil Yan?" asked Ye Wenming."Mr. Ye, I think I've made it clear to you that you're
Ye Wenming almost left in a fluster.Guo Xinli looked apologetic as he said, "I'm sorry to make you and Mr. Ye...""I'm the one who should apologize for getting you involved with him and me." Zhuo Qianyun smiled bitterly.Although Guo Xinli repeatedly said it was nothing, Zhuo Qianyun still felt sorry.At night, Lil Yan and her mother were already asleep. Zhuo Qianyun was about to close the store's shutters when a car pulled at the entrance. Then, a figure staggered out of it.Before Zhuo Qianyun could react, the figure embraced her, looked down, and buried his face in her neck."Qianyun..." The hoarse voice mixed with the smell of alcohol told her who it was.'Is Ye Wenming... drunk?'Zhuo Qianyun wanted to push Ye Wenming away, but the more she pushed him, the tighter he held her. Their bodies were pressed against each other, and his scent enveloped her whole body."Ye Wenming, are you drunk?" Zhuo Qianyun shouted in a low whisper, afraid the noise would wake her mother and
However, she had forgotten that the man before her was drunk. Saying that would only trigger him more."You're mine, Qianyun. You're mine... I forbid you to fall in love with someone else... You can't..." Ye Wenming frantically kissed Zhuo Qianyun as he tore her clothes apart with both hands.She resisted as hard as she could, but it only made him more violent.She felt his kisses and scent all over her, yet she could not even refuse.Tears... could not stop rolling out of her eyes. Zhuo Qianyun sobbed while crying out, "Ye Wenming, don't make me hate you again."However, he did not hear a thing and had his way with her......Zhuo Qianyun desperately washed her body with warm water in the hotel bathroom.There were marks all over her body telling her what had happened! She never expected this to happen when she dropped him off at the hotel out of pity.She was desperately trying to distance herself from this man, but just now...It was fruitless no matter how she struggled o
'Stop thinking about it! Stop it!'She told herself.Just then, the car from last night pulled up in front of the store again. Zhuo Qianyun stiffened as she looked blankly at the person getting out of it.He walked toward her in the same suit he had worn yesterday.She immediately tensed as both her hands grabbed the hem of her dress.Ye Wenming looked at Zhuo Qianyun with remorse filling his face. However, he might do the same thing again if he got to do it all over again. Maybe his subconscious did what he had always wanted to do through his intoxication.When he woke up today, she had left the hotel. Even though he was drunk, he had some vague impressions. Besides, the mess on the bed told him what had happened last night."Qianyun, Last night..." said Ye Wenming.Zhuo Qianyun instantly got up and snapped. "Nothing happened last night except that you were drunk and I sent you to a hotel room.""Nothing happened?" Ye Wenming frowned as his eyes fell on her darkly. "Do you
If she had not been nosy, then that would not have happened last night."But I'm glad you did," muttered Ye Wenming. He gently bent over, and his face magnified before Zhuo Qianyun's eyes. "If you hadn't sent me here, we wouldn't have been so intimate last night... We were as intimate as we were back then..."Slap!She raised her hand and slapped him hard.Ye Wenming's cheek was slapped sideways, and a red mark quickly appeared on his cheek.However, it was as if he did not feel the pain. Instead, he said to her, "If you think hitting me once isn't enough, you can continue hitting me. But Qianyun, you can't deny that you had feelings for me last night no matter what. You also wanted me in the end. Though I was drunk, I remember what you said. You said... you wanted me to give it to you. You said...""Shut up! Shut up!" Zhuo Qianyun immediately covered her ears, unwilling to hear it. Everything he said now would only draw her back to that moment and make her feel more miserable.
The distance between them was so close yet so far. It seemed as if he could not get close even if he did everything he could."What would it take for you to give me a little affection? I... only want a little bit..."She rejected him ruthlessly, saying, "There's nothing you can do, Ye Wenming. I told you, it's over between us. Let's act as if yesterday never happened. I hope you'll forget about it, and I'll forget about it too!"His eyes were full of pain. 'How can I forget?'Ye Wenming seemed to have lost his strength suddenly as he staggered back.Zhuo Qianyun took a deep breath. "I hope you won't ever come to my store again. You can call me about anything regarding Lil Yan. This is the end of us."With that said, Zhuo Qianyun turned to leave, leaving Ye Wenming standing alone in the room. His mood was now different from before.When he heard the door close, Ye Wenming fell to his knees in dejection. His hands clenched together as he pounded the floor hard."Ah... Ah... Ah!"
"It does seem fast." Qin Lianyi touched her stomach before looking at Zhuo Qianyun. She asked, "By the way, Sis Zhuo, is Lil Yan doing okay? Are there any other kids at school who are picking on him?""He's doing okay. I don't think he gets bullied at school anymore. After you backed him up, the principal and teachers learned that he has the Yi family and the Bai family supporting him. So they're cautious with him!" said Zhuo Qianyun. "That's good," said Qin Lianyi.The three chatted as they ate. When talking about Guo Xinli's daughter Guo Nianan, Qin Lianyi also said she would like to see the adorable child after giving birth.Just then, the waiter served a plate of beef entrails. Qin Lianyi said, "Hey, try this out. Beef entrails are this restaurant's specialty. I didn't like them before, but now I love them." The spicy smell rushed to the tip of her nose, and Zhuo Qianyun suddenly felt nauseous. She instantly got up, covered her mouth, and hurried toward the washroom in the p
