On the day Ning Xi's father suffered an accident, her fiance abandoned her. She begged him to save her father, but his request was to break off the engagement, and after that, Ning Xi had to become his mistress. To protect her father, Ning Xi had to agree. However, that night, the person Ning Xi slept with was her fiance's uncle, Zhan Sijue. She got pregnant with Zhan Sijue's children, twins, but she chose to leave. Four years later, Ning Xi returned to her hometown, to her surprise, Zhan Sijue became her new boss! She had planned to forget everything that happened four years ago, but after re-encountering Zhan Sijue, she was drawn into a dangerous romance and a family conspiracy...
"Now, I declare that Ning Kai is convicted of murder and fundraising fraud. He will be given to death sentences with a two-year reprieve!"
Clang!
In court, the judge made the final decision for Ning Kai's fate.
Ning Xi suddenly stood up from the audience. Her amber eyes were covered with mist, and she stubbornly refused to let her tears fall, looking nervously at Ning Kai.
"Dad..." She stepped forward and wanted to say something to Ning Kai.
Ning Kai was wearing a white prison uniform and was being dragged by several prison guards. His face was gaunt and he had long lost his former high spirits. He seemed to be dozens of years older, and even his sideburns were filled with gray hair.
"Xixi, believe in Dad. Dad is not a murderer. These are false accusations, framed by the opponent!"
Ning Xi felt like her heart was being twisted.
Of course, she believed that her kind father could not be a murderer!
With tears in her eyes, she said in a hoarse voice, "Dad, don't worry. I will definitely find a way to reverse the verdict and save you..."
"This is not your visiting time. It's time for the prisoner to go back to prison." The prison guard saw Ning Xi blocking the way and pulled her away impatiently.
Ning Xi, who had struggled to support herself, stumbled and fell to the ground.
The skin on her wrist was abraded and it hurt, but she could not cry.
She had to find a way to save her father...
She suddenly thought of Zhan Shaohui.
He was her fiancé, and he must have a way.
Ning Xi cried and called Zhan Shaohui as if she had found a life-saving straw.
"Are you begging me to save your father? Ning Xi, don't be naive. At that time, I only planned to marry you because I valued your father's wealth. Now that Ning family has gone bankrupt and Ning Kai is in prison, why should I save him?"
Through the phone, Zhan Shaohui's words were like sharp knives, stabbing into Ning Xi's heart!
Her lower lip was almost bleeding, and her voice was trembling. "But everyone in the business world knows that the Ning family and the Zhan family are about to be married. Even if you want to break off the engagement, you still have to put on an act. Aren't you afraid that it will affect the Zhan family's reputation?"
"Hmm, I really do need to take a note on this." Zhan Shaohui's casual voice slowly sounded. He then added, "Since you're begging me this desperately, I'll give you an opportunity. Come to the Four Seasons Hotel tonight at 9 o'clock. If you satisfy me, I'll consider your suggestion."
Ning Xi clenched her teeth, and her blood rushed to her head. "You're kicking me when I'm down!"
He sneered disdainfully. "It's up to you to come or not."
She could not help but burst into tears after holding back for a whole day.
Zhan Shaohui had already made it clear that he would not marry her, but he asked her to go to the hotel to accompany him...
He wanted her to be his lover!
'But if I don't go, what would happen to dad?'
When her friends saw what happened to her father, they all pretended as if they had never known her before. In her grief and indignation, Ning Xi made a solemn decision that she could only work with the devil.
Outside the room of Four Seasons Hotel, Ning Xi knocked on the door...
The door was unlocked.
She pushed the door and entered, trembling. It was pitch dark all around.
Her lips were tight and her long eyelashes were trembling.
"Zhan Shaohui? I've come according to your request, you... oh!"
Before she could finish her words, a sharp black shadow flashed in front of her.
A hot aura came over. It was different from the cologne that was commonly used by Zhan Shaohui. It was mixed with the smell of alcohol and was a little pungent.
Before Ning Xi could react, the man grabbed her wrist with both hands, fixed it on both sides of her head, pressed her against the door, and leaned on her like a ferocious lion...
"No, Zhan Shaohui. Calm down..." Ning Xi trembled in fear. She struggled desperately, trying to beg for mercy.
But the man on her body had completely lost his mind.
With a cracking sound, Ning Xi only felt her skin in contact with the cold air. She couldn't help but shrink, and then a tearing pain swept over her, which made her faint immediately...
Toot toot.
Not knowing how much time had passed, Ning Xi was awakened by the vibration of the phone on the bedside.
She struggled to move, as if she had been torn apart from the middle. Her body was sore and her drooping fingers slowly tightened. She stared at the man who was sleeping with his back facing her.
For a moment, she really wanted to kill him, even if she would perish together with him!
Then she remembered that her father was still in prison waiting for her to save him...
She was suffering as she took the phone and a text message came into view.
Xixi, come back soon. Your father was in a car accident on the way to prison. Now it is uncertain if he is still alive or not!
The moment Ning Xi saw the text message, all the blood in her body froze. She suddenly sat up from the bed which affected her wound, and her face was as white as paper because of the pain.
But she had no time to care about it. She put on her clothes in a mess and stumbled out...
How could there be a sudden car accident? He was still fine before!
However, after Ning Xi left, a breeze slowly blew over and the curtain swayed with the wind. The moonlight poured down through the curtain on the bed.
It also illuminated the man's face.
He had a tall nose bridge, thin and sexy lips, and a cold face. When they were combined together, they looked exquisite. Even when he was asleep, his eyebrows were lightly twisted out of his habit.
It was a face that was somewhat similar to the Zhan Shaohui, but... it was not Zhan Shaohui!
