《Once Upon A One Night Stand》 Chapter 1 Chapter 1 At nine o ''clock in the evening, there was a drizzle. On a cool autumn night, Shu Tian did not hold an umbre in front of the gate of Manshan Vi. Her clothes on her shoulders were wet by the rain, but she seemed to not feel it. She took off her coat and wrapped it around the gift that she had prepared carefully in her arms. Today was the first anniversary of her and Tang Zechen. She should have been at her mother''s home, but she secretly bought a gift for her husband to prepare a surprise for him. When she finally reached the door, her clothes were drenched. She took out her keys from her pocket and carefully opened the door. Without turning on the lights, she stood at the entrance and changed her shoes. The moment she lifted her feet, she saw a pair of high heels on the floor. Shu Tian was really stunned because she knew clearly that it was not her shoes, nor her size. Her heart was instantly grabbed by a pair ofrge invisible hands. She gently ced the things in her arms on the ground and slowly walked towards the master bedroom on the second floor. The closer she got, the clearer the flirtatious conversation became. "Chen, you''re so awesome ..." A familiar female voice pierced through her eardrums and was extremely excited. "Little goblin, I knew you liked it!" The man chimed in. If he wasn''t her husband Tang Zechen, who was he? From the corridor to the door, every step of Shu Tian''s was like walking on the edge of a knife. Even if she could not see what was happening inside, it was not hard to imagine how intense the sex was just by the sound of it. "Who do you like more, Shu Tian or me?" The woman''s sudden question made Shu Tian''s heart skip a beat. Then she heard an answer that broke her heart. "Why, are you jealous? I''ve made love so hard on you, how can I make love with her? I have no interest in her at all!" She was afraid that no one would believe that her husband had never made love with her in more than a year from the time they had a love affair to the time they were married, because he said he had sexual dysfunction. But now, her husband with sexual dysfunction was making love with another woman. Shu Tian felt like herself was simply a heroine, and in such a situation, she could only push the door open until the end. The moment she entered the house, she was still surprised. It was not anyone else who was lying naked with her husband, but her best friend, Jiang Mengyao. They had been close friends from high school to college, and to now that they had graduated, she had never thought that Jiang Mengyao would lie in her bed like this one day ... Shu Tian suddenly remembered that every time she went back to her mother''s home, she would always ask about the time and never travel with her. Now that she thought about it, there was a reason for this. The two people on the bed obviously did not expect Shu Tian, who was supposed to be at her mother''s Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. home, to appear here. However, in just a split second, Tang Zechen regained hisposure. "Get out." Get out? Shu Tian had never been an irritable person, but she could no longer hold back the anger in her chest. From the corner of her eyes, she nced at the hot pot on the table. She picked it up and mercilessly pushed it towards the man and woman on the bed. "Disgusting! Dirty!" "Tian, Zechen has been with you for so long and has not made love with you. You should think about it for him." Jiang Mengyao was not ashamed at all, and was so bold that made Shu Tian felt terrible. "Ha," she sneered. "Do I have to say thank you again? Jiang Mengyao, I treat you as a friend. Is that how you treat me? Other husbands are better than others, aren'' t they?" Shu Tian never said such explicit words. Tang Zechen looked at her. "You go out first." "Don'' t worry, I don'' t want to stay either." Shu Tian was too sick to see them again. "Tang Zechen, think of a way to exin to mom. I won'' t hide your dirty deeds for you anymore!" They had been married for a year, and Tang Zechen told her his sexual dysfunction on their wedding night which she thought would be improved. Her mother-inw asked her why she did not want a child. She kept it a secret. Asked if she was having a health problem, she kept it a secret. However, in the end, keeping a secret turned out to be a bad result. Shu Tian thought she was really stupid. Faced with her threat, Tang Zechen didn''t even frown. Back then, when Shu Tian had chased after him for so long, she had no bottom line in her love for him. Therefore, he just needed to coax herter. However, Shu Tian''s next sentence caught Tang Zechen off guard. "Let''s get a divorce." ... After leaving Manshan Vi, Shu Tian took a taxi and left as if she was running away. She walked around the streets aimlessly and sorrowfully found that she had nowhere else to go except home. "Miss, where are you going?" The driver curiously nced at the woman from the rearview mirror. Just then, the car passed by a high-ss business club. Shu Tian looked at the luxury car in front of the door and stopped the driver, not knowing why she did this. After paying the bill and leaving, she went straight into the club. At the bar in the lobby, she looked at the expensive price and ordered a table full of wine without blinking. The acrid liquid flowed down her throat and esophagus, causing her eyes to ache. Memories of the past shed through her mind, but now, thinking about these memories was the biggest irony. One after another, she drank a lot. She was in a hurry to pee and staggered into the bathroom. After she had settled her physiological needs, she saw a row of tall and powerful men in ck suits. She casually hooked one. "You'' re very handsome." The manager quickly came up to pull her away and quickly looked at her. When he saw that the woman was not old, but she was wearing designer clothes, his expression softened. "I''m sorry, madam. He is a doorman. If you want someone handsome, I can rmend them to you." Shu Tian was alcoholic. She was used to forbearing and obeying Tang Zechen, and now, she felt even more satisfied with revenge. She had lost her husband and lost her youth in this marriage. Now that they had illicit sexual rtions, why should she keep her virginity? "Alright, I want the most expensive and handsome male host to apany me!" The manager''s eyes lit up when he heard ''most expensive'' and he brought her directly to the VIP area. "Wait a moment, I'' ll call someone over right away!" After that, the manager left first, leaving Shu Tian alone on the sofa. She was drunk, dizzy, and seeing things with double vision. In a daze, the door of the opposite private room opened, and a tall man walked out. He had a pair of straight and vigorous long legs with a narrow waist and broad shoulders. Even his face was handsome to perfection, looked like it was carved carefully. In particr, his pair of dark and deep eyes seemed to be attracting people''s attention. Shu Tian smiled, got up and walked over unsteadily, grabbing the man''s arm. "Not bad, I'' m very satisfied." Li Han looked at the woman who suddenly appeared in front of him and frowned. "Let go." "What is your attitude? Didn'' t your manager say that I want you toe with me tonight? I can pay whatever you want. If you perform well, I'' ll double it for you!" After saying that, Shu Tianughed foolishly and revealed a row of white teeth. The man was tall so she had to stand on tiptoe to get closer to him. "I''ll tell you secretly, you''re lucky..." Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Li Han stopped in his tracks and finally looked at Shu Tian. Her palm-sized face was dotted with two enchanting woman on the night scene. She didn''t even put on her makeup. She was as pure as a daisy swaying in the wind, waiting for someone to pick her. Especially when she approached him voluntarily, her body was mixed with the smell of alcohol and the Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. scent of a young girl. Li Han had not felt a thing for women for many years, but now, he felt an impulse. She was quite to his appetite. Li Han lifted her chin. "First time?" Shu Tian mimicked him and narrowed her eyes. "You don''t believe me?" This kind of provocation was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire. Li Han looked at the woman''s sly smile and twirled his fingertips. His sexy lips curled into a devilish smile. "Even if you cryter, I won''t let you go." Shu Tian raised her head and became bold with the aftereffect of alcohol. "I don''t know who will cry when the timees!" Li Han retracted his long arm and pulled her into his arms. He pressed the elevator bottom not far away. At this moment, the manager came over with a group of people. When he saw Li Han, he immediately called out respectfully. "Boss Li, thisdy ..." Li Han looked at the men with warning in his eyes and his tone was slightly heavy. "Take her away." The manager did not dare to say anything more, but did as he was told. The elevator reached the seventh floor of the club, and the entire floor was filled with vip presidential suites. Li Han had his own private room. He opened the door and pushed the drunk woman in. The light from the corridor shone in and was soon cut off again by the door panel. Li Han pressed her against the door, without turning on the lights. Shu Tian felt that her body was so soft that she could not exert any strength. Suddenly, a cold chill hit her. She looked down and saw that her clothes were missing. The man''s kiss was cold and domineering. The skin on his fingertips was even more delicate than he had imagined, which surprised Li Han. Shu Tian seemed to finally realize what was happening. Half of her alcohol aftereffect was scared away, and she subconsciously pushed him away. She wanted to retaliate against Tang Zechen, but not in such a way. "Don''t ... I ... I''m not ready yet!" Li Han looked into her panicked eyes. Since he was used to the darkness, he could see the woman''s harmless face clearly. Her act reminded him how he lost control. Li Han directly sped Shu Tian''s hands above her head and said in a hoarse voice, "it''s toote." ... The next morning, Shu Tian woke up in a pang of pain. Her body felt like it had been crushed by a heavy motorcycle, and every joint was sore. The scene of her resistance ... The suite was still filled with an indescribable smell. She was getting out of bed wrapped in a quilt, while the bathroom door was suddenly opened. The man with only a towel hanging around his waist came out. He was nearly 1.9 meters tall with broad shoulders, narrow waist, and eight abdominal muscles. His skin was of healthy wheat color... Shu Tian screamed and quickly looked away. "Why ... Why ... Why are you naked?" Li Han listened to the woman''s stuttering voice, and then looked at the way she wrapped herself into a dumpling. The corners of his lips curled into a beautiful smile. "We have already done that. What''s there to be shy about?" Shu Tian''s face turned red. "Can you not say this in broad daylight?" Then, she said in a cold voice. "I''ll pay you the money. You can go now." Li Han raised his eyebrows and walked towards the bed with his long legs and broad steps. Before he could speak, Shu Tian noticed him and rolled over to the other side. She wrapped herself in the quilt and stood up to re at him. "Don''t try to pester me. I must tell you that I''m married and I have a husband. Take the money and leave. Don''t tell anyone about what happenedst night!" The man calmly narrowed his eyes. "It''s your first time though you''re married. Are you kidding me?" "We''re not in a good rtionship, but I''m married definitely." With this sentence, Li Han stopped in his tracks. He looked at the woman with a gloomy expression. He knewst night that she wouldn''t lie, so what she said at this time is true. Married. No matter how greedy Li Han was, he would never be the third party to destroy someone else''s family. To be exact, if he had known that she was marriedst night, he would not have touched her. Li Han suddenly felt a little disgusted. He quickly put on his clothes and threw the towel on the ground. Before he left, he looked at her mockingly. "You taste good, but your skill is too bad." After saying that, he walked out of the room without looking back. Shu Tian was stunned, then she clenched her teeth in anger. Her eyes slowly turned red. How could she be so unlucky? She was humiliated by a pimp. Was it her fault that she wascking in skills? It was because Tang Zechen refused to touch her. She had no experience! Shu Tian took a shower in frustration. After she was done cleaning up, she went to the front desk to pay the bill. However, the staff stared at her in surprise. "Ms. Shu, you didn''t have any additional servicesst night." No? What about her aching body? "I ordered one. Check it carefully. It''s in room 709." When the receptionist heard 709, her face turned a little weird. "Room 709 is our vip client''s exclusive room. It''s not open to the public. Have you made a mistake?" Chapter 3 Chapter 3 Aftering out of the clubhouse, Shu Tian''s mind was filled with the words "wrong person". She didn'' t spend any money. And she didn'' t sleep with the club''s PR, but a client. However, it didn'' t matter whomever she slept with. But why was she in such a strange mood? She could not help but think, was Tang Zechen also in such a mood when he cheated on her for the first time? Just as she was thinking about it, the phone in her bag suddenly rang. Who else could it be if it wasn''t Tang Zechen? Shu Tian closed her eyes and quickly picked up the phone. "How dare you call me?" "Shu Tian, you''ve grown up. You dare not go home at night. Where did you gost night?" Tang Zechen''s voice was filled with rage. Shu Tian smiled bitterly. "What? Have you had enough sex with Jiang Mengyao and finally remembered me?" "Don'' t talk to me in such a sarcastic tone. You can go anywhere you want. I'' m calling to tell you that mother wille today. You'' d better go back before noon!" Tang Zechen did not feel any guilty at all. He used to treat her as a tool to handle other people. It was a pity that Shu Tian would no longer be as patient as before. She even admired herself for being so mean at the moment. "Then you should call Jiang Mengyao, not me." "You ..." Before he could finish speaking, Shu Tian had already hung up the phone. She had been so obsessed with his voice that she could look at her phone all day just to hear him say something. But now, she felt disgusted. There was no room for sand in her eyes. She treated herself with self-respect. And she wanted loyalty in her marriage, not to mention that Tang Zechen''s cheating partner was her best friend. Shu Tian went to the biggest shopping mall in the city and bought the most beautiful clothes in the current season. She put on the clothes and looked at the beautiful woman in the mirror. Now that things had turned out like this, even though she could not be truly strong, she could not beughed at by others. After leaving the mall, Shu Tian took a taxi back to Manshan Vi, not to apany her mother-inw, but to reveal everything. She paid the taxi driver, got out of the car and entered the vi. The moment she stepped into the gate, she could not help but think with tears in her eyes. There were countless memories of her and him here, but now everything was absurd. The red high-heeled shoes on the porch disappeared, and Jiang Mengyao had gone. Tang Zechen watched Shu Tian in a new suit walk in. He stood up from the sofa in a flurry, with his elegant face full of disharmonious violence. "Where have you been?" She had not returned all night and had changed into a new outfit when she came back. It meant a lot . Shu Tian didn''t care whether he had misunderstand and tried to feel the thrill of blowing him out. "Tang Zechen, I didn'' te back as if nothing had happened. I came here to show you my hand." In Tang Zechen''s impression, Shu Tian was always weak in front of him. Now, he was stunned when she became tough. "What do you mean?" "Literally." Shu Tian sat on the sofa opposite him, trying to suppress the soreness in her chest. "Let''s get a divorce. Since you'' re with Jiang Mengyao, I can help you to get what you want." This result was unexpected. After a night, Tang Zechen thought that she would change her mind when she came back and even say that she was wrong. He never expected this. But soon, heughed contemptuously. "Where could you go if you get a divorce with me, Shu Tian? You have nothing but me. Divorce? How do you live? Didn''t you buy this dress with my card?" Shu Tian''s hands on her legs clenched tightly. "What do I mean to you, Tang Zechen? I gave up my future for the sake of your dream, not to mention how regretful I am, how thick-skinned are you to use this to mock me now?" Tang Zechen choked and Shu Tian sneered. "I'' ll give you an out and you can just take it. To put it nicely, I let you get what you want. To put it bluntly, I don'' t like sharing a man with others, so I'' ll give you to her, okay?" All her words struck home. Tang Zechen wanted to step forward to capture her. Just then, the gate was opened again. The woman who came in was already old, dressed in elegant loose satin clothes, with set of jadeite jewelry on neck and hand. It is a person who was nearly 50 years old but still very well maintained. It was nobody else other than Tang Zechen''s mother, Shu Tian''s mother-inw - Liu Lifang. Tang Zechen paused and rxed. "Mom, why are you already here now?" Shu Tian stood up and call her out of politeness. "Mom." Liu Lifang seemed to have entered her own house. She changed her shoes and put a bag of Chinese medicine on the table. "It is the new medicine made by Doctor Wu today." Shu Tian''s eyes fell on it and her pink lips parted slightly. "Mom, you don'' t have to take it here anymore." Liu Lifang was already in a hurry to have a grandson. She wished they could have a child right after they had got married. Now, they had been dyed this for a year without any news. She was anxious when she heard that. "Shu Tian, what are you talking about? I came all the way to take the medicine for you. Aren''t you grateful? If it weren'' t for your poor hystera, why would me have to be so strenuous?! You don'' t take elder''s painstaking efforts seriously at all ..." "It''s not my problem." Shu Tian could not bear to listen any longer and interrupted her. "Tang Zechen never touched me." Now that things had turned out this, she did not feel embarrassed anymore. She was stupid enough to hide it for so long. "What ... What did you mean?" Liu Lifang looked at his son. "Zechen, is what she said true?" Tang Zechen obviously did not expect Shu Tian to say it. After all, she was his mother, so he didn''t have to hide it from her. He sat down on the sofa, "Yes!" "You ..." Liu Lifang was stunned. "I don'' t have feelings for her. I'' m not interested. What do you think I can do, mom?" Tang Zechen was furious. "If she did well, why would I be so disgusted with her?" Liu Lifang was unconditionally on his son''s side. "That''s right, Shu Tian. You have to reflect on yourself too. After all, one palm cannot p." "He''s not interested in me. He''s interested in my best friend." Shu Tian nced at the second floor. "Last night, he was sleeping with someone else in my bed." Shu Tian thought that after she finished speaking, even if Liu Lifang did not feel guilty, she would not be so arrogant. However, she did not expect that not only was Liu Lifang not surprised, but even her eyes were a little evasive. Evasive? Shu Tian looked at her carefully, and a terrible thought came to her mind. "Did you know they were together before?" When she finished speaking, the huge living room was silent. There''s no need for any answers. Shu Tian had already known it. She took two steps back in disbelief. "You ... You actually ..." Liu Lifang coughed awkwardly. "Tian, after all, you two are husband and wife. You said that Zechen didn''t touch you, but he was still a man. He always has desires and it''s not good for his health for a N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner. long time. Were also helpless..." "Huh?" Shu Tianughed. How could there be such an excuse? She calmed down for half a minute, and her eyes were blurred by tears. She suddenly felt that there was nothing to say. Nothing is morementable than a dead heart, so she said softly. "Let''s get a divorce. I''ll get someone to draw up a divorce agreement. All you have to do is to sign it." "Divorce?" Liu Lifang frowned. "Shu Tian, you are too impulsive. How can you say such things so easily? Do you know what kind of life a woman will lead after divorce? Besides, even if you could get a divorce, you won''t get any money from the Tang family!" After all, it was for the sake of money. Shu Tian didn''t want to ask for money, but Liu Lifang''s arrogant attitude made her change her mind. She picked up her bag and stood at the gate, looking at the two of them. "You will regret it. You will pay for your shamelessness and despicable behavior today." Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Leaving Manshan Vi, not to mention luggage, Shu Tian did not even bring much clothes. She came alone and left alone,which gave her an illusion that she had returned to a year ago. When she was wandering the streets, received a call from her mother but she did not tell her about these things. After finishing the call with a lump in her throat, she stayed in a kfc from noon till night. In the end, she couldn''t take it anymore. She called her friend Fu Qingtong. The moment the call was connected, Shu Tianpletely copsed. She cried so hard that she could not utter aplete sentence, but just repeated it, "I''m getting a divorce, I''m getting a divorce ..." After Fu Qingtong asked for the address, she called her all the way to the store and saw that she was sitting alone in a corner. It was dark outside. Fu Qingtong felt distressed and walked over to hold her in her arms. "Shu Tian, I''ming." The two did not say anything, Shu Tian cried. After wiping the tears, she followed Fu Qingtong back to her private apartment, a duplex apartment in a prime location, which was nothing to a girl like Fu Qingtong who had a good family. "Tell me what happened." Fu Qingtong handed a cup of hot water for her. N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner. Only then did Shu Tian told her the whole story. Fu Qingtong only sighed after hearing it. "Tian, I didn''t be surprised that Tang Zechen cheated on you. Do you believe me?" Shu Tian didn''t understand, and she listened to her next words. "When you two had married for half a year, we went to dinner. You asked Tang Zechen to pick you up and send me home. He asked for my contact information, but I didn''t give it to him. At that time, I wasn''t sure what he meant. I just felt a little awkward. Besides, you had married, so I didn''t tell you about it. But I didn'' t expect that he would have a affair with Jiang Mengyao." Shu Tian was stunned for a moment. It turned out that Tang Zechen had already set his mind on her best friend. "Tian, you should get a divorce. You should get rid of such life as soon as posible." Fu Qingtong''s words were harsh, but she said the truth. "Isn''t Liu Lifang arrogant? She treats you like a pushover. You have to struggle for yourself. Coincidentally, the legal adviser in my father''spany is from the Han Yi "Am I going to have a divorcewsuit to Tang Zechen?" At the mention of this, Shu Tian was a little flustered. "I'' m afraid that I don'' t have that much resources..." The most important thing was your heart. After all, it was too cruel for lovers confronted each others at court. "Shu Tian, don''t be silly. Isn''t it just right for you to help them to achive their aim now? You are sad, instead, the adulterer and the whore are happy now!" The more Fu Qingtong thought about it, the angrier she got. "I'' ll go ask about this for you. After I get it straight, you can just go see thewyer directly. I can tell you that if you don'' t think about yourself now, you will cry and regret in the future." ... The next day, at the urging of Fu Qingtong, Shu Tian went to the Han Yiw office that its two floors was located at the most high-endmercial office of the city. The most famouswyers in the country were all here. Nowyer don''t wanted to work at Han Yi. Working here represents that you are elite and you will have a good sry and a good future. Shu Tian was looking for awyer surnamed Wu. The receptionist told her thatwyer Wu would be here in a while and let her wait at the sofa. Shu Tian did as she told. She was bored so looked at the booklet on the table. After a while, the door next to her opened. Someone came in and immediately she heard someone said. "Hello, Boss, hello, Hearingwyer Wu''s name, Shu Tian raised her head, but froze on the spot when she caught sight of the man. It was a face that she was very familiar with. Not too long ago, she had sex with him. The scene of that night shed past in her mind. The club suite, the dark night, the soft bed, and the clothes scattered all over the floor... Why is he here? ! Obviously, Li Han did not expect toe across Shu Tian here. He narrowed his eyes and stopped in his step. The receptionist informed her in time. "Miss Shu, this iswyer Wu." Wu Zhiyuan wore a pair of sses. He was in his thirties and looked a little fat. "Hello, Miss Shu. We have received your request before. Shall we go in and have a talk?" Shu Tian wanted to say no, but the reality seemed to forbid it. She nodded stiffly. "Okay." "Your office will be used by the research teamter. Come to my ce first." Suddenly, Li Han, who was standing at the side, spoke. Perhaps Wu Zhiyuan didn''t find it strange, but the words in Shu Tian''s ears were meaning. Was he doing it on purpose? The three of them walked towards the office. Along the way, they passed by the office area. Shu Tian saw everyone naming him ''Boss Li''. Not only he was not a male publicist, but he was the boss of the Han Yiw office and a big shot that no one dared to offend inmercial and political circles. Sitting in the chair, Shu Tian was anxious, and her body was stiff. "Miss Shu, I heard that you have a divorce case? Is it convenient to tell me what is going on with your husband?" Wu Zhiyuan started working quickly. Shu Tian sneaked a nce at Li Han and whispered when she saw that he was only working with his head down. "I was married to my husband for a year. Yesterday, I saw him in bed with the mistress. The mistress is my best friend. My mother-inw had knew about this. I was the only one who was kept in the dark. Now that I want to get a divorce, but they don''t." "Do you have children?" "No." Shu Tian bit her lips and said after a pause. "We never have a sexual rtionship, only have the name of couple." Wu Zhiyuan pushed the sses on his face and hid his surprise behind the lenses. "Right now, divorce is very simple for you, but I need to know what you want." Shu Tian''s eyes were filled with hatred. "I want my husband to lose his reputation andpete for my own property." Wu Zhiyuan nodded. "There''s also a more crucial question. Do you have any evidence that your husband cheated on you?" This time, Shu Tian was confused. "Evidence?" "For example, words, videos, or other forms of information that can prove that your husband indeed cheated on you." "... I didn'' t have it." "In that case, you have to collect the information first. Otherwise, there is no basis for your words. Since the t of Han Yi is to win, we need to have evidence that we can rely on." Wu Zhiyuan''s words undoubtedly made Shu Tian disappointed. Themunication did not continue. It was just the evidence that stuck her. Before she left, Li Han, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke up. "Miss Shu, hold on. I have some suggestions for you." It was well known that Li Han did not engage marriagewsuit. Wu Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, he thought that there may have some other reason and left first. There were only two people left in the office. Shu Tian stood in the same spot. She was awkward and overcautious. The man was sitting opposite her in a leather chair. His tailored suit made him look even more outstanding. "You want to divorce?" The man''s maic voice sounded. Chapter 5 Chapter 5 Shu Tian'' s ears generally turned red, and her voice was like a mosquito. "Okay." "Are you nning to take revenge on your husband for his derailment?" He continued to ask. For some reason, Shu Tian had no confidence. "Yes." "He didn'' t have sex with you?" She subconsciously said. "No." After answering, the man who was sitting in the chair suddenly stood up. Before Shu Tian could react, the man was already standing in front of her, his well-defined fingers lifting her chin. "Do you know that the Han Yiw office rarely deals with marriage cases?" Shu Tian looked at him, confused. "Excellent barristers disdain such cases. The inexperiencedwyers can'' t solve them, especially for cases like yours that don'' t have big fortune. So it'' s very expensive. Do you have enough money?" Every word he said was steady and imposing. Shu Tian frowned slightly. She had no money and the supplementary card in her hand would probably be stopped in a short period of time. She directly exposed her husband'' s misdeed without any evidence, not even money. How silly she was. Should she borrow from Fu Qingtong? She was too embarrassed to do that. And she knew that the money she borrowed would be just a drop in the ocean, while awsuit was a protracted battle. Her mind was in a mess. Shu Tian felt like she was a fish that had run aground. She had no other choice but to ept it passively. The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became. Her grievance made her eyes gradually turn red, and fill with tears. Li Han suddenly released her hand. He frowned slightly and clearly saw that the woman was about to cry out. This little daisy cried. Her normal reaction was unexpectedly pitiful. No wonder she was so bold when she appeared at the club that day. It turned out that her husband had cheated on her. Li Han suddenly became a little patient. He pinched her chin with his fingers and his thumb caressed her pink lips. Remembering that he hadn''t kissed her that night, his eyes darkened. "I can help you win this case, will you?" Will you? The meaning of these two words was very profound. The edge of Shu Tian'' s lips was very itchy. She tilted her head but couldn'' t avoid his touch. Then her clear almond eyes met his. "So what do you want?" Li Han smiled. She was not too stupid to be aware of negotiating terms. He inched closer and smelled the clean scent on her neck. "I want you." The expression on his face did not change when he said these three words. But Shu Tian listened with trepidation. "What does Boss Li mean by ''want''?" Li Han didn'' t answer her question. "What do you think you can give me?" He was rich, powerful and influential, and had everything he needed. His status was much higher than Tang Zechen'' s. All she could give him was her body. Shu Tian'' s eyes turned cold. "I'' m afraid I can'' t agree to Boss Li'' s request." That night had already been a mistake, and it could not continue further to be a huger mistake. However, Li Han obviously did not intend to let her off. "Based on my experience, even if you borrow money, Lawyer Wu will not take your case. It'' s troublesome and thankless. Thewyers of the Han Yi are not vegetables on the street. They have never waited to be chosen by customers." "Are you threatening me?" "It'' s objective fact." Shu Tian looked at the man in front of her and suddenly felt that fate made cruel jokes on her. She things difficult for me? I am a married woman." Unexpectedly, Li Han admitted it gracefully. "Unfortunately, my body only reacts to you." Shu Tian choked. "I cannot make youfortable." Li Han had said this to her, but now she was trying to shut him up by it. He smiled charmingly. "It doesn'' t matter if you can make mefortable. I can teach you slowly." At this point, Shu Tian'' s face turned red. When it came to explicit words, women would never be a match for men. She could not help but feel embarrassed. "What do you want to do!" The man moved closer and there was almost no gap between them. With the aroma of cedar of his body enveloping her, she heard one word he slightly said. After hearing this, Shu Tian'' s face turned even redder. She couldn'' t help but swear and raised her hand to beat him. "You'' re dirty!" Li Han quickly caught the little hand and put it behind her. He turned around to open the door by her side and pushed her in. Shu tian looked at it and realized that it was arge lounge. She retreated to the corner of the wall and covered her chest with both hands. "Li Han, calm down!" The man casually unbuttoned his necktie and threw it on the table at the side. He took off his suit and put it on the hanger. The crystal cufflinks on his white shirt were removed. His actions were filled with male hormones that made her heart beat faster. Shu Tian did not have the time to appreciate his series of actions. Her scalp felt numb. She tightened her clothes and felt a little nervous. "You... You'' re awyer. We are still in yourpany. If you act recklessly, I'' ll call someone in!" Li Han scoffed at her threats. "You can shout. The sound instion here is not bad. Let'' s see if your voice is loud enough to cross the door." As he spoke, he had already walked up to her and grabbed her chin with both hands. He lifted her face. Today, she had put on light makeup and looked even more exquisite. Unfortunately, he did not like the lipstick on her mouth. Li Han did not kiss her. He reached out and pulled her shirt open. The buttons fell, and Shu Tian covered her body in panic. But he easily caught her hands and pressed them over her head. Shu Tian squirmed uneasily. "Li Han, I'' m not divorced yet. You'' re making it worse!" "As long as you stay with me, I will help you get a divorce." Li Han lingered on the woman'' s delicate skin, his deep ck eyes staring at her. "I can satisfy all your demands, make your ex-husband go bankrupt and ruin his reputation." Shu Tian was stunned for a moment. She thought of Tang Zechen. Seeing the current situation, her heart ached so much. She have never thought that she would have sex with with another man in order to hurt Tang Zechen. The woman'' s sad expression made Li Han'' s eyes darken. She seemed to like her ex-husband very much. Without any warning, he broke into her body. Shu Tian shouted with pain and looked at him in shock. She whimpered like a wounded little beast. Why did this happen? Why she was the one to be punished for loving her husband? Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. How was she supposed to go the rest of the way? The more Shu Tian thought about it, the more hopeless she felt. Her life had just begun and she had reached a desperate end. The only one who helped her was the demon who was now bullying her body. Li Han immersed himself in the sexual pleasure, and thefort of his body which had been abstinent for so many years made him almost mesmerized. But when he finally released himself, he was burned by a drop of boiling liquid. He looked up and saw that the woman was already covered in tears. With eyes closing, her thick and slightly curled eyshes were wet by tears which were rolling down. Cried? Li Han stopped his movement and took a tissue to clean himself up. Shu Tian lost all her strength and fell down the wall to squat on the ground. She hugged her knees and cried. "Get up." The man'' s cold voice waspletely different from his sexy moan just now. Shu Tian acted as if she had not heard it and kept crying. Li Han had always been impatient with women'' s tears, and now he was only annoyed by them. But there were other indistinct emotions that he could not tell. "Shu Tian, get up." He called her name. Chapter 6 Chapter 6 Shu Tian finally reacted. She couldn''t take two consecutive days of attacking, but the person in front of her didn''t care. "You won''t let me off, will you?" Her voice trembled as she asked him. Li Han was silent. "You provoked me first." At the club, she blocked his way, gave him such a big" surprise". The past unpleasant memories let him lose interest in women, but he was only thirty-two years old, he can not go on like this, and he needed a body that could ignite his desire. Shu Tian only wanted to p herself in the face after hearing this. If she knew Li Han''s real identity, she wouldn''t dare to provoke him if she could start over again. Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret in this world. Li Han looked at the woman squatting on the ground and pondered for a few seconds. He walked over and crossed his arms under her arms. He picked her up and ced her on the bed. Since she was still naked, he did not forget to cover her with the nket. "Tidy up, I''ll go to the meeting." Seeing that he was about to leave, Shu Tian suddenly felt a surge of anger in her heart. She reached out and grabbed his sleeve. When she met Li Han''s gaze, she heard her bold voice. "If I obey you, will you help me take revenge on the Tang family?" Li Han raised his eyebrows. He didn''t expect her to suddenly change her mind. "Yes." "Alright, I have another request." For the first time, Shu Tian was so brave as to confess herself free. "I''m twenty-four years old this year. I just had my birthday. A year ago, I graduated from thew school of Toronto university. I''m not an idler, but a top student who graduated with a full schrship. I know the Li Han couldn''t help but be stunned by her words. He thought that she would ask for money or something alike, but he didn''t expect it to be like this. Moreover, he didn''t expect that she graduated from Torontow school. As a seniorwyer, Li Han first looked at the woman in front of him. "You want to work inw?" Shu Tian nodded firmly. "Yes." "Then why did you give up?" Shu Tian''s eyes darkened. "Because of ... getting married." Liu Lifang''s request was to get married immediately after graduation, and they didn''t want Tang family''s daughter-inw to appear in public, which was a matter of face for them. Shu Tian was in love with Tang Zechen at the time and agreed to everything, but she still retained her enthusiasm forw over the years. Now that she had identally provoked Li Han, since he would not let her go, what was the difference between being bitten by a dog once and twice? She had to go through this hurdle before her eyes. Now that she was divorced, she still had her parents to support. Li Han did not say anything. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it. His sharp eyes looked at her through the white smoke, which made Shu Tian ufortable. His aura was so intimidating that it made her feel oppressive. After a long while, the smoke was half lit up. He walked back to the bed and looked down at her like a king. He opened his mouth and blew out a smoke ring, which made Shu Tian narrow her eyes. "Eight o''clock tonight. Come to Imperial Garden vi and bring what you need." Shu Tian waved the smoke away, and the man had already turned and left. She curled up and hugged herself. Everything was going on uncontrobly. She did not know if she was right or wrong, but she knew that she could not fall down now. ... After leaving the Han Yiw office, Shu Tian received a call from Fu Qingtong. On the phone, she didn''t say much in detail, but told her that the case had been epted by Li Han. "Li Han? !" Fu Qingtong raised his voice abruptly. "Are you kidding me?" "No, it''s true." "He''s the most powerful person in the legal profession. He''s worth hundreds of millions. How many rich and powerful people are lining up to court him? Are you sure you''re not deceived?" Fu Qingtong still could not believe it because Li Han was a mythical existence. "Tong, it''s veryplicated. I can''t exin it clearly in a few words. In any case, it''s indeed him who will take over the case." As for her rtionship with Li Han, Shu Tian had yet decided what to say, so she decided not to say anything. Fu Qingtong finally epted the fact for he knew she wouldn''t joke about it. "Then you don''t have to worry. There''s no case that Li Han can''t win." Shu Tian frowned at the thought of the man who had forced himself on her. "So invincible?" "Why are you asking me when you studyw? The most horrible people in this world are not rich people, nor powerful people, nor monsters and ghosts. The scariest ones are those who use thews made by this country as weapons. To Li Han, the so-calledws are like tailor-made for him, and he is proficient at it." Shu Tian opened her mouth, but in the end, she didn''t say anything. After a few more words with Fu Qingtong, she hung up the phone. She walked to the subway station and Google Li Han''s information when she was waiting for the subway. From elementary school to high school, he went to the best public schools in the country. At the age of 22, he was admitted to Cambridge universityw school, and when he returned home, he became famous for winning numerous cases. He was hired as visiting professors at the top universities in China, chief legal counsel of the top 500panies in the world, and then he established Han Yiw firm with Ji Chuanyi, which had be the most famousw firm in the country. There was little information about Li Han''s family background or personal life. After all, no one was so stupid that he thought he could spy on the life of a bigwyer .without being taken to court. Shu Tian closed the webpage. Thinking of Li Han''s words, her eyebrows twitched. She hoped that her life in the future would not be too struggling. Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ... Although she was very reluctant to return to Manshan Vi, Shu Tian still needed to take away some important documents. Aftering out of the subway station, she walked from the entrance of the vi to her house and passed by a ck Mercedes-Benz s sedan. It looked very familiar and she remembered that it was the car of Tang Zechen''spany. Shu tian didn''t mean to sneak a peek and wasn''t interested, but when she saw that the car started to vibrate rhythmically, two words shed through her mind: car sex. Since right in front of them was the vi, were they so eager that they couldn''t even wait to do it indoors? The moment Shu Tian wanted to leave, she thought of the evidencewyer Wu had mentioned. She hid behind a tree and turned on the camera on her phone. She aimed it at the car and took photos. Then she bent down and slowly approached the car. She squatted down and even heard the sound clearly. Jiang Mengyao''s wild voice was heard, and he shouted obscenely. "I love you, Chen, I really love you!" "I love you too." The ambiguous voice and the regr fluctuation made Shu Tian clearly realize what was happening at this moment. Whether it was perfunctory or not, when she heard the words" I love you," Shu Tian''s hands trembled uncontrobly. She had not heard the words" I love you" from Tang Zechen for more than a year of marriage. The two of them talked to each other in a ceaseless and fulsome manner. Shu Tian''s heart was bleeding. She had loved him for so many years, but he had never even looked at her from the beginning to the end. The two of them had already ended their fierce battle when Shu Tian emerged in her thoughts. Jiang Mengyao caressed Tang Zechen gently and asked him in a soft voice. "Chen, since you don''t like Shu Tian, why did you marry her back then?" Chapter 7 Chapter 7 "Her father was in the citymittee at that time, and mypany needed her father''s help. Coincidentally, Shu Tian liked me too. She wasn''t ugly and had a warm personality. My family was so eager to let me marry her as a shield." When Tang Zechen said these words, he didn'' t even stumble. "Who knew that his father would be investigated by the centralmittee just after our marriage?" Shu Tian had cried for three whole days because of his father. At that time, Tang Zechen had also Shu Tian, how blind were you? "What does she want now?" Jiang Mengyao asked tentatively. Although she had been with Tang Zechen for quite some time, she did not dare to venture in. "She wants to get a divorce. My mother is afraid that she will split the family fortune, so she won'' t allow it." Tang Zechenughed disdainfully. "She probably came back crying to beg me to sleep with her in less than two days." After hearing this, Shu Tian''s squatting body swayed, and her head hit the car, making a noise. After alerting the two people in the car, she quickly stood up and wanted to run. But Tang Zechen caught her as he got out of the car. The camera hadn'' t been turned off yet, but fortunately, because of the inertia, the mobile phone was thrown out, and the screen was directly ck. "Shu Tian, why are you here?" Tang Zechen''s eyes darkened. Shu Tian was surprised to see Jiang Mengyao get out of the car, but soon she changed into a smug look. She even lifted her hand to pull down her cor to let Jiang see the hickeys on her body. Shu Tian waved Tang Zechen''s hand away and pped him hard on the face. "This p is for me." Just as Tang Zechen was in a daze, she pped him again. "This p is for my father." "Are you crazy? !" Tang Zechen looked at her in shock. "Tang Zechen, you'' re the one who''s crazy." Shu Tian red at him with red eyes. "When my dad was investigated, all your feelings were faked, right? Now, aren'' t you afraid of retribution from lightning strikes?! I''m begging to sleep with you? Bah, I won'' t forgive you even if you kneel down and beg me. Sleep with you? I'' m still afraid of getting sick!" Jiang Mengyao''s face darkened when she heard that. She walked over in high heels. "Shu Tian, what are you talking about? Is it interesting for you to criticize me indirectly?" "Do I need to?" Shu Tian smirked coldly. "So what if I say to your face that you are a mistress?" "You!" Jiang Mengyao red at her angrily and looked at Tang Zechen from the corner of her eyes. Seeing that the man was also angry and didn''t care about her, she pped on Shu Tian''s face, making Shu''s corner of mouth bleed. Tang Zechen let go of Shu Tian''s hands. He obviously did not expect Jiang Mengyao to do this. "Shu Tian, this is too much!" "Jiang Mengyao, you destroy other people''s families by being a mistress. One day, what happened to me will happen to you again." Since Tang Zechen was able to cheat the first time, he could cheat the second time. Jiang Mengyao would never be thest. After saying that, she didn'' t want to entangle herself with the two of them anymore, so she picked up her phone and left in a hurry. After getting the documents and necessities from Manshan Vi, Shu Tian left without looking back. If Li Han was a trap in front of her, then what was behind her would be a nightmare. She was already struggling, and she would not return to this ce no matter who she chose. ... At eight o ''clock in the evening, Shu Tian appeared at the gate of Imperial Garden vi on time. If Manshan Vi was a rich area, then Imperial Garden was a ce where you couldn''t get in even if you were rich. There were only 11 buildings in the vi group, and each house had its own garden and swimming pool. The 11 vis stood on the hillside of the mountain, and with the public space considered ... Shu Tian did not dare to think about it. Evil capitalist, these words were so appropriate on Li Han. Shu Tian rang the doorbell at the door and was about to be let go. She walked to the front door of the vi and was really standing there. She could not help but panic. As she was calming down, the door in front of her was suddenly opened from the inside. Li Han was still wearing today''s shirt. It seemed that he had just entered the house not too long ago. When he saw her standing there in a daze, he sounded unhappy. "Are you going to stand here and be the door god?" Shu Tian came back to her senses and stepped in. The door closed. The interior of the house was clear, not in a luxurious style, but in a minimalist style. It could be said that it was extremely simple. ButMaterial ? of N?velDrama.Org. Shu Tian still felt something from the paintings on the wall. The newly established masters'' studio in China. Millions would be needed to win the auction. There were three of them, probably more expensive than a building in Manshan Vi. "Can you cook?" Li Han suddenly turned around and asked her. Shu Tian nodded honestly. "Yes." Studying abroad for four years, she was not used to western food so she would cook by herself. After that, she had been a housewife for a year, so her cooking was definitely no problem. "My taste is lighter. Go make something to eat." Shu Tian couldn''te back to her senses and pointed at herself. "Me?" "Otherwise?" "I mean ..." Shu Tian paused in mid-sentence, unable to speak. Li Han was a person who knew what you were thinking just by looking at your expression, not to mention a person like Shu Tian who did not know how to hide her emotions. He put down the cup in his hand and walked up to her. His long arms supported the table that she was reaching out to, and he leaned over slightly. "Why, you think I asked you to only be my bedmate? With your current performance, wouldn'' t I be too disadvantaged?" He indirectly said that her skills were not good. Shu Tian could tell that and her ears were red and she was forced to lower her head. "You need to know exactly what I like. Try not to do things I dislike. I'' m not a very good person with a good temper and patience." Li Han stood up straight. "So go cook now, understand?" What else could Shu Tian say? She had no choice but to bow her head in others'' home. Moreover, in the current situation, Li Han was also her sponsor. This realization made Shu Tian a little frustrated. After watching Li Han go upstairs, she turned around and went into the kitchen to do some work. There were organic vegetables and fresh frozen food in the fridge. She took out beef ribs and salmon, and then made ck pepper beef ribs, steamed salmon, and fried cabbage, and cooked a rib soup. When Li Han went downstairs, he smelled the aromaing from the restaurant. He deliberately lowered his steps and looked up to see the woman carefully putting food into her mouth under the warm light. She tasted it, and it seemed to be good. She smiled in satisfaction, revealing a row of white teeth. Her hair was curled up and a few strands of hair fell on her fair neck, making people want to stretch out their hands to help her. It turned out that Li Han had indeed done so. He quietly walked over and helped her straighten her hair from behind. His long fingers touched her back neck, and his fingertips slowly rubbed against her neck. It was suggestive. Shu Tian was so nervous that she didn''t even dare to breathe. She changed the topic. "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat first?" Li Han didn''t say anything. His breathing was on her skin. He could see that her small ears were red and he lowered his head closer to her. "You'' re so sensitive." Chapter 8 Chapter 8 Shu Tian was shocked, but it was toote to turn around. That person reached out and hugged her from behind. "Ah! You ... You don''t want to have dinner?" "Have dessert first." After speaking, Li Han directly kissed her neck. His cold lips moved downwards. Although it was alreadyte, and was dark outside, the light above her was blinding. Shu Tian did not even dare to look at him. Noticing that she made no sound, Li Han tortured her even more. Shu Tian could not help letting out a groan in a low voice, and her body softened into a puddle of water. "Your voice is very pleasant." Li Han guided her slowly, grabbing her hand that was covering her mouth and pinning it to her side. Shu Tian gradually lost herself in the vortex. This time, she seemed to understand why Tang Zechen was so keen on this kind of thing. ... After finishing that ''intimate interaction'', the food on the table was almost cold. Shu Tian''s hunger had also turned into tiredness due to the huge physical exertion. Li Han was much more rxed. After tidying himself up, he did not forget to wash his hands twice before sitting at the table and eating elegantly. And hemented on the dishes. "Don''t use ck pepper again in the future. I don''t like it." Shu Tian heard this when she walked out of the bathroom. She tried to endure but failed. "Don''t eat if you don''t like it." Li Han''s hand with the chopsticks paused, as he didn''t expect she would talk back. He stared at her, which made Shu Tian frightened. She avoided looking at his face. "I mean, if you don''t want to eat ... I will eat." Li Han patted the chair beside him. "Come here." Shu Tian had originally nned to go upstairs to rest, but now she had to sit there. She walked and sat awkwardly and reluctantly. Looking at the dishes, she had no appetite. After eating a few mouthfuls of food symbolically, she put chopsticks down. Suddenly, she thought of something and took out her phone from her pocket. "I have something to show you. Today ..." "Eat first." Li Han didn''t even look at her. "I don''t like talking at dinner." "..." There are a lot of things you don''t like. Shu Tian hissed at him in her heart, but put away her phone in a friendly manner. Although she didn''t eat anything else, she was forced to stay until Li Han finished his meal. After tidying up the tableware, Shu Tian went to the study on the third floor to find him. After getting the permission, she pushed the door open and went in. Li Han had already changed into a dark blue satin nightgown. His cor was slightly opened, revealing his beautiful corbone and wheat-colored skin. It seems that he was tempting someone. Shu Tian felt a little embarrassed and ufortable. She lowered her head and handed the phone to Li Han. "I took this today. Take a look." Li Han took it and clicked on the video. He watched the entire video expressionlessly. "Send it to my mailbox to keep a record." Shu Tian took the phone back and was surprised by his calm demeanor. "That''s it?" The man asked. "How do you want me to react?" "..." Noticing that she didn''t say anything, the man added. "If I were you, I would check Tang Zechen''s check-in records before he hid the information." That was an enlightening suggestion. Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Shu Tian suddenly realized that she had never thought of this before! "I''ll check tomorrow." After saying that, she was about to leave when Li Han stopped her. She thought that he might had some questions to ask, but unexpectedly, he asked. "Why did the video suddenly end?" Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat. She lowered her eyelids to cover the panic in her eyes and pretended to be calm. "Nothing happened. My phone fell to the ground." Li Han obviously wouldn''t be fooled by her words. He could find out what was going on easily. He looked at her face carefully. There were red welts on the corner of her mouth, but they were not obvious. They were covered by using the foundation make-up. His expression turned cold. "Did they hit you?" Shu Tian didn''t want him to find her predicament. She quickly lowered her head and used her hair to cover the welts. "No, who can hit me? I just didn''t hold my phone." "Shu Tian, I don''t like lies." Li Han''s expression darkenedpletely. "I give you another chance to tell the truth, huh?" Hearing the threatening words, Shu Tian felt frightened. She bit her lip. Finally, she still didn''t have the courage to continue lying to him. She lowered her head in embarrassment. "My husband''s mistress, Jiang Mengyao." "..." Li Han pondered for a few seconds and exhaled heavily. He gritted his teeth and said. "A few years ago, I also received several divorcewsuits. It''s not umon to see that mistresses were beaten by those wives. It''s the first time to see that a legal wife are willing to be beaten by the mistress." Shu Tian couldn''t lift her head because of his taunts, and retorted in a low voice. "I also hit Tang Zechen." Li Han sneered. "Do you need me topliment you on your ability, hmm?" "No..." Shu Tian lowered her head like a tortoise. Looking at this little woman in front of him, Li Han felt a sense of frustration for the first time. He didn''t say anything and turned to leave the study room. When Shu Tian was thinking about what she had done wrong, the man came back with an emergency medical chest in his hand. He sat on the sofa and rummaged out a bottle of iodine. "Come here." Shu Tian obediently walked over and sat down. Her left cheek was immediately coated with the cool iodine, followed by the ointment. The soft touch of the texture and the warm temperature of the man''s fingertips mingled, which gave her an illusion of gentleness. Shu Tian could not help looking at him. The man lowered his head to check her welts. He was focused and careful, which was different from the man who only knew sex. His look made Shu Tian felt pleasant. "He is helping me now. Even Tang Zechen didn''t do that." Shu Tian thought. Shu Tian''s heart beat faster for no reason. When she was about to move her gaze away, Li Han noticed her. "Have you seen enough?" Shu Tian tended to be shy, and she was even more embarrassed when he teased her. Her cheeks flushed red, which caused a flutter to Li Han''s calm heart. "Thank you ..." The little woman said awkwardly. Li Han raised his eyebrows and threw the ointment away. "Compared with saying ''thank you'', I prefer your actions." "What... what actions? Hmm!" Before she could finish her sentence, the man''s slender fingers suddenly touched her mouth. That feeling ... Shu Tian could not describe it, but it was a weird feeling. She reached out and grabbed the man''s wrist, wanting to pull out his two fingers. However, she was pinned to his legs without any struggles. Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Shu Tian was just about to shut up when her teeth hit his fingers. She was so scared that she immediately opened her eyes again. Her big, watery eyes slowly turned to be dark red, and she looked like she was going to cry or not. It seemed Li Han did not restrain himself but became even more fierce. In the end, he''s done ying and got out. There was wet tissue on the table. Li Han took it over and carefully wiped his fingers. However, he saw Shu Tian sitting there with a nk face. Her eyes were full of confusion. She didn''t seem to know anything about what he was doing now, so pure that Li Han almost reacted. However, they have just made love in the restaurant, so she couldn''t bear it if it was too frequent. "Tang Zechen is not in the mood for you. I guess he has never seen you like this before." Li Han thought of the woman in the video that Shu Tian showed him just now and sneered, "I don'' t want to eat delicious food, but I love to eat rotten rice." Li Han might not be trying to belittle her, but it was different for Shu Tian. She was so ashamed and angry that she could not find a hole to hide in. She wrapped her clothes and rushed to the door. Li Han looked at the figure who had disappeared at the door and his smile grew wider. Not only was Shu Tian pure, but she was also a little old-fogey. Shu Tian ran straight to the room that Li Han had arranged for her. She locked the door behind her and threw herself onto the bed, covering her face with a nket. Then she began to cry. Thinking of that, Shu Tian felt nauseous. She stood up and ran to the bathroom inside the house. She turned on the tap and rinsed her mouth continuously. The cold water mixed with her tears fell into the pool. She looked at the red and swollen woman in the mirror and even looked away in disgust. How was she different from Tang Zechen now? Although she wanted to get a divorce, she was still not divorced after all. Now that she had entrusted herself to Li Han, other than that man''s power, was there any other part of her selfish intention to prevent her from leaving? Shu Tian asked herself, not daring to face it. She wanted Li Han to take back what belonged to her and to help her win the case. And what he wants is just my body. Shu Tian surely saw a dark red spot on her face. There was still the color of the medicine on it. She was slightly stunned. She remembered the way he had treated her wound in the study room just now... Shu Tian quickly shook her head, not allowing herself to be immersed in fantasy. "Bang! Bang! Bang!" The knocking on the door interrupted her imagination and she knew who was outside. She wiped her face clean and walked over to open the door. Li Han''s displeased face was reflected in her eyes, "You locked the door?" Shu Tian pursed her lips, "I''m ready to go to bed." The man smiled wickedly, containing his anger, "Who told you that we slept in separate beds?" Shu Tian was stunned. Could it be that he wanted to sleep with her? She turned around and realized that this bedroom seemed to be the master bedroom... When she was distracted, Li Han had already pushed the door open and squeezed in. He closed the door behind him and directly carried Shu Tian onto the bed. "It''s not good to test my bottom line." Shu Tian met his line of sight, and the yfulness from earlier had faded. All that was left was a deep darkness that could not be understood. She swallowed and was just about to make up an excuse when her phone suddenly vibrated at the bedside. Shu tian heaved a sigh of relief, "I...I have to take this call first." Li Han did not stop her, but he did not let go of her. He took the phone over with his long arm. When he saw the caller id on the screen, he raised his eyebrows slightly and picked it up, ceing it beside her ear. "Shu Tian, you''re good. You didn''te home for a few days and even took away your id card. You want to f*cking rebel, don''t you?" Tang Zechen''s irascible voice came from the microphone. The flush of Shu Tian''s face was reced by pallor, "Don''t beat around the bush. Give it to me straight. " "Ah, Shu Tian, I think you have forgotten your identity. Let me tell you, if you don''t get a divorce, you will be my legal wife. I have the right to ask you to go home!" After saying that, Tang Zechen added in a lewd manner, "Not to mention going home, even if I wanna have sex with you, you have to lie down obediently." Shu Tian swallowed the bitterness in her heart, her tone calm and ruthless, "Tang Zechen, even if I have sex with a dog, I won''t have sex with you." After saying this, before Tang Zechen could scold her, Li Han, who was covering her, gave her a hard pinch. Shu Tian was unprepared and let out a low cry. She only understood when she bumped into the man''s unhappy eyes. Let the dog... She...didn''t mean that. Before Shu Tian could speak, Tang Zechen suddenly became agitated, "Shu Tian, where are you fooling around with me?" Tang Zechen was most familiar with her sudden exmations just now. However, when he heard Shu Tian making such an ambiguous noisete at night, he couldn''t bear it. Moreover, it was Tang Zechen. "Does it matter to you where I am? Tang Zechen, don''t tter yourself. When I get back, it will be the day you signed the divorce agreement." N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner. On the other end of the phone, Tang Zechen was still shouting, but Shu Tian could not stand it anymore. Even if she hung up the phone, she knew that Tang Zechen would not let it go, so she simply turned off her phone. Although it didn''t matter if she pretended to be strong, after hanging up the phone, Shu Tian could not help but feel empty in her heart. After all, she had loved that man for so many years, and she couldn''t put it down at any time. Now they were in such a situation full of absurdity and ridiculousness. Li Han looked at her dejected expression and thought about the phone call just now. He didn''t talk much, so he directly lifted Shu Tian''s shirt and put his big palm into it. Shu Tian was in a bad mood and didn''t want to do it at all. She pushed him away. "I don''t want to do it ..." Hearing this, Li Han''s face darkened. He pulled the robe belt from his waist and tied her hands to the bed. He lowered his head and met the woman''s frightened gaze without any pity. "Who do you think you are, Shu Tian? You have no right to refuse me!" After saying that, the clothes on her body had already shattered into pieces in the man''s palm. Shu Tian was shocked and kicked her legs uneasily. "Don''t! Li Han, I''m not feeling well..." Her strength simply could not bear his uncontroble demands. However, Li Han thought that what she said was because she felt ufortable with the phone call and was even angrier, "Then we can solve it in another way." He untied Shu Tian''s hands from the bedside and tied them to her back. His strength was so strong that Shu Tian''s hands were slightly bloodshot. Shu Tian was forced to kneel on the bed, tears of shame hanging in the corner of his eyes, and she shook his head in spite of his unwillingness, "Don''t be like this, please ..." The man turned a deaf ear to her and his deep eyes deepened. His five fingers pierced through her hair to fix her head... Shu Tian waspletely confused, as if she could not feel anything. He acted like a marite ying with Li Han. Chapter 10 Chapter 10 It was as if a century had passed when Li Han finally ended his torture of her. Li Han looked at the woman who was lying on the bed. Her hair was messy and her innocent and helpless expression was so sexy, and this was something that could not be seen from other women. He hooked her chin and lifted the strands of hair that clung to her face. "Shu Tian, since you'' re with me, don'' t think about other men. I won'' t allow anyone else, not even your ex-husband." Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. His things could only belong to him. Shu Tian could not speak. She was still afraid of what had happened just now. If she had been afraid of Li Han before, now she was terrified. She only understood one thing. In front of Li Han, she absolutely could not bring it up or recall any man. Just now, that was his punishment. He did not care about her feelings at all. Shu Tian slowly closed her eyes. Bits and pieces of what just happened shed through her head. It was too humiliating. Seeing that she seemed to have lost her senses, Li Han frowned and pinched her cheeks with hisrge palm. "Speak!" Shu Tianpromised in a hoarse voice. "I understand." ... That night, Shu Tian turned her backpletely to the man beside her. At first, she didn''t dare to sleep. She was afraid that he would pounce on her uncontrobly again. After experiencing a few unpleasant experiences, she was a little traumatized by what happened. However, in the middle of the night, her head ached and she fell asleep in a daze. The next morning, Li Han''s biological clock was always very urate. He woke up at half past six on time. When he opened his eyes, he saw Shu Tian''s slender figure under the quilt. The man paused, as if recalling why a woman was in his bed, but he soon remembered. Still asleep? He had the habit of exercising in the morning, so he wanted to grab Shu Tian with him. He pushed the little woman beside him. "Get up." Seeing that she didn''t respond, Li Han pushed her two more times. "Shu Tian, get up and do some morning exercises." She was still asleep and breathing heavily. Li Han''s hand, which was about to fall, paused, then turned to her forehead. He was surprised by her burning temperature of her forehead. The temperature was at least thirty-nine degrees celsius. Li Han frowned and immediately pulled her over. The woman''s flushed face entered his sight. "Damn it!" He cursed in his heart and got out of bed to bring the medicine box over. He took out a fever suppressor and pasted it on her forehead. Then, he rushed over took the antipyretic. He ced it on the bedside table said to her. "Get up and take the medicine." Shu Tian was deep asleep, annoyed by the disturbance, she said with a grumbling heavy nasal voice. "Go away ..." "I'' ll leave after you take the medicine." Li Han patiently tried to persuade her. "I don'' t want to take it." "You have to take it." Li Han had never taken care of a patient, so he scratched his hair in frustration. "Shu Tian, my patience is limited." Normally, when she was awake, Shu Tian would have been obedient. But now, her fever was so high that her head was dizzy. How could she still be afraid? Her temper hade up and she waved her hand wildly. "I won'' t drink it!" Li Han''s patience was exhausted. He snorted and nodded. "Then don'' t take it." After saying that, he turned around and left the bedroom, leaving behind a cup of steaming antipyretics and a small woman curled up on the bed. Fifteen minutester, the door opened again. Li Han walked in with a man in a whiteb coat. The man had a beautiful face and fair skin. He was only slightly shorter than Li Han, and he looked like a true gentleman. The man''s name was Ling Junze, one of Li Han''s best friends, who ran a private hospital and secretly developed new drugs and medical devices. "It''s just a small fever. Why did you have to call me all the way here?" Ling Junze looked at the woman on the bed and joked. "Shut up and go take a look." Li Han''s expression remained unchanged as he walked to the bed. Ling Junze took Shu Tian''s temperature: 39.8, it was a very high temperature. He prescribed medicines for her and gave her an injection. After that, he noticed the medicines on the bedside. "It''s so rare that you would take care of someone" Li Han''s gloomy gaze swept over. "Get lost when you are done." "Don'' t. It''s too heartless to kick me away after using me." Ling Junze pouted at Shu Tian. "Who is it that''s worth of your attention?" Seeing that he was pressing on, Li Han suddenly let go. "You want to know?" "I really do." "My new pet." "..." Ling Junze choked for a moment. When he noticed Li Han''s dark and unclear eyes, he seemed to understand something and casually teased her. "This little pet of yours is not bad. How about you leave it in my house for two days when you'' re tired of it?" As expected, after hearing this, Li Han''s face darkened. Even his aura was like the cold wind from Siberia, which made people shudder. Ling Junze quickly exined. "You said it yourself. Since it''s a pet, it doesn''t matter who keeps it ..." Li Han could tell that he was teasing him on purpose, but he could not help but frown at the possibility. "I remember that yourwsuit with the hospitalst month is still not done..." "I was wrong!" Ling Junze immediately admitted defeat. "People say that pets only acknowledge one master in their lifetime. Even if I want to keep it, your little pet is not happy." Li fu snorted and looked at the door. "You can leave now." Ling Junze. "Chirp." It was a joke, but before he left, Li Han still sent him to the door of the vi. Ling Junze was dressed in a white coat, carrying a medicine box in his hand, and he lowered his voice. "I recently asked the people in theb to develop a new ingredient. When we did the clinical treatment, the effect was especially good ..." Li Han lit a cigarette and held it in his mouth. "I don'' t need it." Ling Junze clicked his tongue. "Just hear me out. This medicine is absolutely safe and has absolutely no side effects. The cost is so high that it can'' t be put into regr production and can'' t be bought on the market!" Li Han smiled and flicked the ash. "Junze, I realized that you'' re also quite harmful." "I'' m just doing it for your own good. You'' re only thirty-two years old. Do you want to be a monk for the rest of your life? Even if you'' re willing, your body won'' t be able to take it ..." "Junze." The man looked up at the second floor and the light in his eyes faded. "I think I'' m better." Chapter 11 Chapter 11 After sending Ling Junze off, Li Han had a meeting at ten in the morning. He nced at the time and called his secretary, Zhang Bikun, "change the ten o'' clock meeting to a video conference. I can''t rush over right now. Send the conference documents to my email address." Zhang Bikun was surprised but immediately sent the documents over. He hung up the phone and informed the attendees one by one. asionally, someone whispered in the spacious and bright conference room, "Why did it suddenly be a video conference?" "Maybe Boss Li is on a business trip." Zhang Bikun was speechless. Boss Li has never beente or absent from work. He arrived at work at 8: 30 every day for years. Today he unexpectedly missed a meeting. Li Han was having a meeting in the study room, and he would pay attention to the time below the screen every once in a while. He did not forget Ling Junze''s instructions to change the bottle an hour "Alright, today''s meeting is over. If you have any questions, you cane to meter," after a brief summary, Li Han ended the meeting, turned off the camera, and called Zhang Bikun in private, "When will thepany recruit in the fall?" Zhang Bikun didn''t expect him to suddenly ask this and flipped through the manual, "It''s almost time. The thirteenth of this month. That is the day after tomorrow." Every year, the Hanyi would recruit two batches of new workers from the school and society. They were all elites in the industry or "diamonds in the rough". The application requirements are harsh, but there will still be thousands of resumes. After all kinds of assessments, only five people will be recruited in the end. "Add someone in." Zhang Bikun was even more surprised. Back then, a senior executive of Hanyi added his own rtives to thepany and was fired directly after Li Han found out about it. Now... Zhang Bikun wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt that the world was already mysterious, "Boss Li, go ahead." "Shu Tian." ... When Shu Tian woke up, it was already past one in the afternoon. She opened her eyes and took a moment to slowly sit up from the bed. She took the phone from the bedside table and was slightly stunned. She slept so long? She looked down at the white tape on the back of her hand and the cold medicine on the side. She finally understood her current situation and remembered Li Han''s urging this morning. Her gaze fell on the empty seat beside her. Shu Tian got out of bed and put on her slippers. After washing up, she went downstairs quietly. The first floor was empty as well. She called out tentatively, "Li Han?" After waiting for a while, no one answered. Did he go out? Shu Tian heaved a sigh of relief, but suddenly stopped in her tracks when she turned around. The man was dressed casually as he stood on the stairs behind her. His arms crossed in front of his chest, and he looked at her calmly. Shu Tian rubbed her nose awkwardly and smiled awkwardly, "You''re home ..." "You''re disappointed that I''m at home," it''s not a question, but a statement. Her reaction has already fallen into Li Han''s eyes. She was relieved when she thought that no one was around, and she was too surprised to cover up when she turned around. Shu Tian stood stiffly in the same spot. Obviously, she had not thought about how to calmly stay under the same roof with the man in front of him. Li Han walked up to her in a few steps and raised his hand to test the temperature on her forehead. Unexpectedly, Shu Tian tilted her head to avoid him. His eyes narrowed dangerously and his expression was unhappy. Shu Tian thought he was going to do something. She thought about how to make up for it, so she took his hand and put it on her forehead. This move eased Li Han''s expression, "The fever is gone." "Okay." There was another moment of silence. Li Han looked at her tensed-up body and looked away in disgust. When he walked into the kitchen, Shu Tian could not leave him alone. After all, she had only seen Li Han''s angry facest night, and she did not have the guts. Shu Tian sat on the sofa in the living room with her pajamas wrapped around her. The sun was shining brightly in the afternoon,ing in through the thin white window screens. It was warm. Not long after, suddenly a seductive fragrance floated in the quiet air. After Shu Tian woke up, she didn''t eat anything yet. She looked up at the kitchen and saw that Li Han was holding a white and delicate casserole on the table, "Come and eat." Shu Tian blinked and walked over quickly, looking at the vegetable porridge and side dishes on the table, "This ... This is for me?" Li Han looked up and put down two porcin bowls, "I'' m hungry." In other words, he was just making it for you in passing. Shu Tian pursed her lips and didn''t care. She washed her hands and sat down. Anyway, it was good that she had food. The porridge tasted very good. Although it was light, it still had a faint fragrance. With sweet and sour side dishes, it is a treat to drink into the stomach. Li Han did not continue after drinking half a bowl. Shu Tian stole a few nces. He said that it was for himself. He was probably not hungry at all. At that time he forced her and tortured her to death on the bed and now, he made her porridge. Was this person ... mentally unstable? However, due to his care, Shu Tian still found a topic, "Do you know how to cook?" N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner. "Yes," Li Han sat in the main seat with a single sybleing out of his nose. "Don''t super-rich people like you always hire chefs and nannies? It''s rare that you still have this kind of emotion..." "I don''t like strangers at home." Shu Tian stopped holding the spoon and looked at him, "Isn''t it normal to have nannies?" Back when she had just gotten married to Tang Zecheng, she was not able to keep things in order at home. She also had her nanny to help her, and she asionally helped nanny. After asking this question, Shu Tian actually saw a trace of loneliness and pain in Li Han''s expression. Pain? Shu Tian was shocked. The devil would be in pain too? Chapter 12 Chapter 12 Shu Tian took a closer look at the man, who looked so calm and indifferent, as if she had just been hallucinating. Li Han seemed to be stuck in a memory. He didn''t answer, and changed the topic, "Send your resume to my email tomorrow." Shu Tian asked, "What do you want that for?" "For work." N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner. "You have found me a job so soon! ?" Shu Tian quickly swallowed the porridge in her mouth, "What''s the job? Where''s the job located? Does thepany ask for my resume? But I don'' t have any work experience ..." "If you have work experience, you don'' t need me to help you." Li Han said so directly, which made Shu Tian blush. After all, this was one of her '' requests'' back then. She was not sofortable going through the back door openly. "Is that ... a job rted to thew?" Li Han''s gaze fell on her face. The anticipation in the woman''s eyes also moved his calm heart. Suddenly, he didn''t want to tell her so easily, "You want to know?" Shu Tian nodded her head, like mashing the garlic, "Yes." "Sit here." He pointed at his thigh. The smile on Shu Tian''s face froze, and she looked away, "I suddenly don''t want to know, ha ha ..." The man''s thin lips curled up slightly. Very good. He just wanted such a reaction. Li Han did not continue to force her. He looked at her meaningfully and turned to go upstairs. After dinner, Shu Tian went to download a temte for her resume. After carefully filling it out, she sent it and the video she had recorded yesterday to Li Han. Thinking of work, she finally felt a sense of joy after being in gloomy mood for a few days. However, she was interrupted by a phone call before she could maintain her happiness for too long. It was a call from mother. Shu Tian took her phone and walked to the french window. After a long sigh of relief, she pretended to pick it up easily, "Hey mom, why do you remember to call me?" Unexpectedly, Ye Lihua on the other end of the phone was not rxed and her voice was stern, "Tian, where are you now? Zechen just told me that you haven''t been home for a few days. What''s going on?" Shu Tian did not expect Tang Zechen, who had cheated on her first, to dare toin first. She felt a chill in her heart. He was sure that she would not tell Ye Lihua about this. It had to be said that he had known Shu Tian for so many years, even if Tang Zechen had not been sincere. "Mom, it''s nothing. Don'' t worry too much. We''ll handle it ourselves." "Then tell me what is it?" Ye Lihua didn''t know the truth, she just thought Shu Tian was thoughtless, "Tian, it''s normal for couples to quarrel. They say that lovers'' quarrels are soon mended. You''re not even going home now. Even if Zechen wants to make up with you, there''s no way. What you''re doing is wrong!" Shu Tian listened to her mother''sints. Mom did not know the truth, so she did not me her mom, but she could not help but feel wronged, "Mom, just leave us alone. It''s better for you and my dad to take care of your health." "Hurry and go back now. Don'' t wander around by yourself. You''re a married person. If you do this, you'' ll be med once your husband''s family knows." Ye Lihua advised in earnest. Shu Tian was even sadder. Every time there was a problem, they would always stand on each other''s side and consider it. However, the Tang family family treated their retreat as weakness. Especially when she thought about Liu Lifang''s arrogant face, she hated the Tang family even more. After calming Ye Lihua down, Shu Tian hung up the phone and immediately dialed Tang Zechen''s number from the cklist. The phone rang twice before it was picked up. Shu Tianughed at herself. He didn''t pick up the phone for so many times. Now they were about to get a divorce, he answered the call so quickly. "You finally called back. It seems that mother-inw is more effective." Tang Zechen said frivolously. Shu Tian''s stomach twisted when she heard that, "Tang Zechen, your face is thicker than I thought. How dare youe closer to my mother shamelessly after something like this happened?" "So what? Aren'' t you afraid to tell your mother?" "Yes, I don''t dare. When we really get divorced, you wait and see." The reason why Shu Tian didn''t say it now was she didn''t want her family to worry. Hearing her determined tone, Tang Zechen immediately mmed the table in his office, "Shu Tian, let me tell you again. Impossible to divorce!" "I''m afraid you''re not the only one in charge." Shu Tian did not want to quarrel with him, and her tone was already impatient, "Where are you now? Let''s meet and talk." Tang Zechen subconsciously looked at the surroundings. Just as he was about to spit out the word pany'', he suddenly thought of something and changed his tone, "I''m at home. Come over." Shu Tian hung up immediately, not wanting to talk for a second. She changed afortable outfit, took her bag, and immediately walked out. Just as she opened the bedroom door, she bumped into Li Han who was walking towards her. Seeing that she had changed her clothes for going out, Li Han asked in a bad tone, "What are you doing?" "My mother has something urgent to ask me toe over now." Shu Tian did not dare to say the real reason. He almost hurt her mouthst time just because of a call. This time, if he knew that she went to see Tang Zechen, he would probably torture her again. When Li Han heard that it was about her mother, he didn''t ask much and just said, "You haven''t recovered yet." "My fever has already subsided. It''s no big deal. She''s in a hurry and wants me to go over immediately." Shu Tian was anxious. After all, Tang Zechen was shameless. He would say anything to her mother if she waste, he would even went to her mother''s house directly. "I want to see you at home before 8 pm." Shu Tian answered perfunctorily, "Got it. I''m leaving." Li Han watched as the woman took two steps down the stairs, changed her shoes at the door, and left the house in a flurry. He turned around and walked into the bedroom. Looking at the empty room, why did he feel like letting the little white rabbit go home? ... Shu Tian took a taxi to Manshan Vi. Her mind was full of Tang Zechen''s nonsense to her mother. She didn''t think too much about it. When she saw that the man was sitting on the sofa casually, she was furious. "Tang Zechen, what''s the point of this?" Shu Tian stood in the living room with anger in her wide almond eyes. The man lifted his eyes and looked at her. She had always been a good wife. Now she was staring at him, which made Tang Zechen have some different feelings, like he had never understood her before. He put his legs on the table and said coldly, "If I don''t do it, will youe home obediently? Shu Tian, you''ve grown up. You dare to hide!" Shu Tian had wanted to say that who did you think you were? But she kept her mouth shut and didn''t want to argue with him. She just looked at him without any emotion, "I''m warning you, don''t bother my parents again. If it happens again, I don''t mind letting yourpany employees know that you cheated on me." "How dare you!" Tang Zechen stood up from the sofa and walked to her in a few steps. The man''s aura instantly surrounded her. Chapter 13 Chapter 13 Shu Tian narrowed her eyes. "Anyway, with nothing left now, I was fearless. See if I dare." "You just want a divorce! ? Well, I grant you!" Tang Zechen said and opened the drawer under the coffee table and took out a document from it and threw it in front of her. Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. She looked down and saw that it was a divorce agreement. A trace of astonishment shed across Shu Tian''s eyes. Her fluke mind that Tang Zechen had refused to divorce also dissipated. It turned out that he had already given himself a way out. As aw graduate, it was not difficult to understand the divorce agreement. Shu Tian read it carefully and concluded it: She could get a divorce, but didn''t want to take away any money. It was not much different from what she had expected. If the conditions were favorable to her, he would not have prepared such an agreement in a short period of time in order to let her leave their marriage with nothing. "What are you waiting for? Didn''t you say you wanted a divorce? Now that you have the chance, hurry up and sign it." Tang Zechen''s urging made Shu Tian break down. She had really failed. In the end, she still could not arouse this man a slightest bit of sincerity. The corner of her eyes was soaked with warm tears. Shu Tian put the document in front of him. She questioned him with a choking voice, "Tang Zechen, have you never loved me?" The man seemed to have heard a joke and said without hesitation, "No." Tears rolled down her cheeks andnded on the floor. Shu Tian no longer covered her emotions, looked into his eyes as usual, and said, "Then why did you marry me? Is it really because my father was able to help you at that time?" Tang Zechen did not expect that she would cry. He thought that she was here to get even with him. Although Shu Tian was gentle and obedient during the year of marriage, she had never been a crybaby. She must be so sad that she could cry in front of him in such a situation. For some reason, Tang Zechen felt suffocated. He grabbed the cigarette on the table and lit it, his movements filled with anxiety. "Not exactly. You chased me so passionately back then. I couldn''t possibly not have any feelings for you at all. But after we got together, Shu Tian, ask yourself, how much protection do you have against me? At first, you kept your family''s situation a secret, but you only told the truth when I learnt it from others and asked you. What did you think of me?" Shu Tian listened quietly. Her heart felt like it was being hit by a heavy object, and she felt sharp pain. Tang Zechen took a puff of his cigarette and slowly exhaled. In the hazy smoke, she could not see his expression clearly and could only hear his unhurried voice, "At that time, your family was a senior- cadre family. Even though my parents were sessful in business, how dare you say that your parents didn''t disdain us? When I first went to your house, your father used to mock my parents!" "So you must be very happy when you found out that my father was under investigation, right?" Tang Zechen smiled and said, "Yes." She raised her hand to cover her mouth helplessly and took two steps back in disbelief, afraid that she would cry out. Since it was so, why didn''t he let her go earlier ... "Why ..." Shu Tian muttered in a daze, "Why did it have to be Jiang Mengyao ..." If it were someone else, perhaps she would have suffered a smaller blow. Now that she had been betrayed by her two closest people at the same time, she really did not dare to think deeply about it. She would be immersed in great grief at the slightest thought. "Because the two of you are just the opposite. She can give everything you can''t give me." Jiang Mengyao was from a poor family, and her parents worked part-time, so she knew how to read people and how to please a person, which was what Tang Zechen needed. Shu Tian forbade herself to sympathize with him and tried to make her voice calm, "No matter what, this is not your reason for cheating." She continued without waiting for him to speak, "But I won''t sign this divorce agreement because I''m not satisfied with it." While speaking, Shu Tian had already bent down and put the document in her hand back. Today, she was wearing a v-neck pullover, which allowed Tang Zechen, who was standing in front of her, to see the inside. Tang Zechen was about to enjoy it, but he caught a glimpse of two dark red love bites on the side of her neck. He didn''t touch her. Shu Tian, how did you get the love bites? She was touched by another man? ! The moment this thought entered his mind, Tang Zechen burst into a more intense rage than he had imagined. He stepped forward and grabbed Shu Tian''s wrist with great strength. "Shu Tian, did you cheat on another man behind my back? !" Shu Tian could only feel harsh and struggled desperately. "It''s none of your business!" Hearing this, Tang Zechen suddenly smiled strangely and said through gritted teeth, "You''re my wife if you don''t get a divorce for a day. You see whether it''s of my business!" He lifted Shu Tian''s hip and pressed her against the carpet. His body was heavy, and was 1.8 meters tall. So he pressed Shu Tian out of breath. "Tang Zechen, what do you want to do?" Shu Tian looked at him in horror, not knowing that this kind of resistance made him even more excited. "I''ve never forced a woman before. Let me try now!" Tang Zechen reached out and tugged at her blouse. Her cor was big, and her fair skin was exposed in just a few moments. The man''s gaze deepened and said, "I didn''t expect that you have a curvy figure." Shu Tian kicked and hit the man with her hands, but he didn''t seem to feel it. He had no intention of stopping. "Tang Zechen, you lunatic! Aren''t you afraid that I will tell Jiang Mengyao if you do this?" Shu Tian thought that if she said Jiang Mengyao, he would be more or less restrained. However, she had never expected that Tang Zechen would only smile yfully and said, "That''s good. Then we can have a threesome." Shu Tian was shocked. "You fucking shameless!" In fact, no matter how much Tang Zechen was unscrupulous, he had no intention of doing so. He just said it on purpose. He liked Shu Tian''s fierce look, which waspletely different from her previous weak self. "Shu Tian, didn''t you always want me? I''ll give it to you now." Tang Zechen felt the soft body beneath him, and his chest pressed against her soft breast. Looking at her flushed face, Tang Zechen could not help but wonder what she would look like when she had an orgasm. He kissed her, and Shu Tian could not avoid being sucked by him. She clenched her teeth immediately, afraid that he would put his tongue in, and she was so disgusted that she almost vomited. She suddenly thought of Li Han. Even if that person also forced her,pared to Tang Zechen, she was more willing to be forced by him. The thought of Tang Zechen using the same method to have sex with Jiang Mengyao made her feel nauseous! It was said that a woman would have a different kind of affection for the man who got her first time, and now she believed it. She would rather have Li Han on her now. Tang Zechen saw that she refused to open her mouth, and even pinched her cheeks, but it was useless. Thinking of how willing she was to be with another man, he was furious and his teeth fiercely bit the corner of her lips. Chapter 14 Chapter 14 The sweet blood spread in her mouth. Shu Tian opened her mouth subconsciously in pain. Just as Tang Zechen was about to attack further, the door of the vi was suddenly opened from outside. "Zechen, I brought your favorite fresh mushroom oxtail soup. You ... Ah!" Jiang Mengyao stood at the door with a thermos in her hand. When she saw the situation in the living room, she couldn''t help but exim. On the messy floor, the man was pressing against the woman. One hand was tugging at the woman''s clothes on her chest while the other was holding her slender waist. Their bodies were tightly pressed together and their lips were still touching ... Jiang Mengyao could only feel her head rumbling, like a bomb dropping down her head, making her mind in a mess. She rushed over and ced the thermos on the table, screaming in shock. "Shu Tian, what are you doing? ?" Originally, when Jiang Mengyao rushed in, Shu Tian felt a little relieved. However, when she saw Liu Lifanging in the door, she changed her mind. How long had she been gone, and Liu Lifang had already led Jiang Mengyao into the house? Shu Tian snorted inwardly. After adjusting her clothes slightly, she hugged Tang Zechen''s neck abnormally. "What do you think I'' m doing? Of course I'' m doing something I love." "You ... You'' re shameless!" Jiang Mengyao screamed. Shu Tian raised her eyebrows disdainfully and was about to say something else.When she saw Tang Zechen''s expression of acquiescing her, she suddenly felt disgusted and let go of him. She stood up from the ground and walked straight to Jiang Mengyao, speaking word by word. "I told you, you won'' t be thest one. I don'' t want to mess with you, so you'' d better get the hell away from me. Otherwise, if I want to take revenge on you again, you'' ll be destroyed." Jiang Mengyao wanted to refute her, but she realized that there was nothing to refute ... N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner. She turned to look at Liu Lifang and put on a pitiful look. "Auntie, I''m just afraid that something like this will happen. Zechen is in a bad mood and can''t take care of himself. I just want to check on him. It seems that I did something wrong. I think I should go first ..." Hearing this, Tang Zechen did not react much. On the contrary, it was Liu Lifang who grabbed her hand. She did not avoid Shu Tian at all. "Little Jiang, that''s very kind of you. You should take a good look at him when youe to see Zechen. Otherwise, it wouldn''t be a wasted trip." "That''s right, you'' re already here. Isn'' t it a pity if you don''t y a pity scene here?" Shu Tian''s gaze The three of them watched Shu Tian leave through the front door. Tang Zechen watched her leave with her head held high and her chest held high. Then, he looked at Jiang Mengyao who ran to him and frowned. "Who asked you toe?" If she had not stepped in, perhaps Shu Tian would have been pressed under his body by now, begging for death. Seeing the man''s unhappy face, Jiang Mengyao''s heart sank and she forced a smile. "Zechen, I heard from mom that you haven''t had lunch yet. Have the soup. It''s still hot." Tang Zechen flung her hand away. "No." Without giving her any room to continue persuading, he turned around and went upstairs. A few secondster, a loud mming sound came from the bedroom. Seeing this, Liu Lifang stepped forward and held her back. "Little Jiang, don'' t mind him. Zechen is also in a bad mood. You should be more tolerant!" Jiang Mengyao immediately nodded her head in understanding, but her hands were tightly clenched by his side. Shu Tian, Shu Tian. This b * tch, I won'' t let her get away with it! ... After leaving Manshan Vi, Shu Tian looked at the crumpled divorce agreement in her hand. Her eyes were bloodshot. She turned away and looked out the window. She lowered the window to let the wind blow on her face. She didn'' t need to imagine how shameless the Tang family was because she would probably be able to see it every day. Tang Zechen ... Shu Tian gently closed her eyes and remembered what he had done to her. She had been so obsessed with that man before. His hug and a simple and restrained kiss would make her happy for a long time. But now that when she was touched by him, she felt nauseous and cold. Shu Tian was stunned for a moment, then folded the divorce agreement and ced it in her bag. She looked at the time and realized that it was only three o ''clock. Seeing that there was still time left to the time that Li Han had set, she called her friend Fu Qingtong. Coincidentally, Fu Qingtong also wanted to see her. The two of them met at the Hilton cafe in the city. As soon as they met, Fu Qingtong asked before she sat down. "What''s wrong with your mouth?" Shu Tian was stunned. She took out a small mirror from her bag and looked at it before realizing that there was a blood scab on the corner of her mouth. She gently touched it and felt a little painful. "The dog bit it." "Dog?" Fu Qingtong knew her well enough to be right. "Tang Zechen?" "Yes." "You two met?" Fu Qingtong knew that she had not gone back since she caught Tang Zechen and Jiang Mengyao in bed. "He couldn'' t find me, so he called my mother and told her. I was afraid that he would make a big fuss so I went to warn him." I just don''t know how it will turn out. "Damn, how shameless is that? He had done such a wicked thing himself, yet he still had the nerve to before. He''s a self absorbed demon!" "He didn'' t do anything to you, did he?" Shu Tian shook her head. "He didn''t get what he wanted. Jiang Mengyao and Liu Lifang came, they were almost holding hands. It made me feel sick, but they coincidentally saved me." "I'' m not surprised by anything that family does. Anyway, it''s fine as long as you decide to get a divorce. It''s better for you to spend your life with yourself rather than someone like Tang Zechen. Besides, you'' ve just celebrated your twenty-fourth birthday, and there are plenty of good men waiting for you." Fu Qingtong did not know how tofort her so she tried to use such a joking tone. Shu Tian slightly lowered her eyes and stroked the exquisite coffee cup with one hand. "Tongtong, I have something to tell you." Fu Qingtong nodded. "Tell me." "I ... Am with Li Han." "" Fu Qingtong first nced around and her back left the sofa. She leaned forward and lowered her voice. "Are you traumatized by Tang Zechen?" Otherwise how else could she say such nonsense? Shu Tian looked up and smiled, but it was not easy. "Really. He said he would help me with awsuit and let me be with him." The two looked at each other and their gazes met. Fu Qingtong and Li Han were high school ssmates. They had been ying since they were young. She knew what she wanted to do with just one look on her face, so at this moment, she understood that Shu Tian was not lying. "You ..." Fu Qingtong was so shocked that she didn''t know what to say. On the one hand, it was because she was with another man. On the other hand, it was because this man was not someone else, but Li Han. After pondering for a while, she asked hesitantly. "Do you know that you two are not in a serious rtionship?" "I know." Shu Tian pursed her lips and looked embarrassed. "I know." She and Li Han are just getting what they want. Fu qingtong took a deep breath and lowered her voice. "Did you guys have sex?" Chapter 15 Chapter 15 If they hadn''t had sex, then it would not have been toote. Shu Tian''s ears slowly turned red when they talked about such things in public. Fu Qingtong knew that it was toote. She had already done what she should have done or what she shouldn''t have done. "You ..." Fu Qingtong was speechless and didn''t know what to say. Shu Tian was afraid that she would look down on her, so she quickly exined, "I couldn''t control this. It was an ident that we met ..." "Tian, Li Han is not an ordinary person. It''s not that simple to have an affair with him," Fu Qingtong had also heard about Li Han''s reputation outside. This man was very noble, and no woman could be valued by him. It was not that Shu Tian was not good. She was very good, but she was so beautiful and pure while Li Han was shrewd and deep. They were not the same. She was afraid that she would waste everything on a wild-goose chase and that she might lose Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. everything in the end. Fu Qingtong sighed when she saw that she was also confused, "Are you still able to escape unscathed? If you can, then just do it. I can offer you whatever he can offer you. You don''t have to worry." Shu Tian was stunned for a moment and her mind was in a mess, "I don''t know. Why don''t I have one heart-to-heart talk with him?" "Forget it," Fu Qingtong suddenly waved her hand, "In my opinion, since a man like Li Han has decided, it''s very difficult for him to change his mind. You can''t get benefits if you talk to him about it now." Shu Tian wore a sad face, and Fu Qingtong could not bear to hurt her anymore, "Alright, this isn''t too bad. Li Han is single and you''re single as well now. Maybe you can still develop your rtionship. You should consider it a rtionship. If he bullies you, I''ll be the first to avenge you." Shu Tian forced a smile, but her heart sank. Were they in love? It would be great if that was the case. Unfortunately, to Li Han, she was just a tool for him to vent his desire. After chatting with Fu Qingtong for a while, they had dinner at Hilton''s Western restaurant. It was only seven o''clock when Shu Tian couldn''t sit still and said that she would take a taxi to leave first. "Why are you in such a hurry?" Fu Qingtong still has half a bottle of red wine to drink. Shu Tian exined, "Li Han told me to get home before eight o''clock." Fu Qingtong opened her mouth in shock. She didn''t expect that Boss Li, who was so awesome in the rumors, was just normal... She adjusted her expression and stood up, "I''ll give you a ride then." "No need. It''s not convenient for you to go there. I''ll just take a taxi." Fu Qingtong didn''t insist when she heard it, "Alright, take care on your way home." ... Forty minutester, the taxi stopped at the gate of the Imperial Garden vi group. Since security guards need to check up on them, the taxi could not enter. Shu Tian paid to get off the car. She was walking inside when the security guard saw her. The security guard let her take the small four-wheeled car in the vi group and brought her to the door of her vi. After thanking the guard in a low voice, Shu Tian took out the key Li Han had given her during the day. The living room was lit up and the man was sitting on the sofa watching the financial news today. He turned around when he heard the sound at the door, "Not bad, you''re very punctual." Shu tian let out a sigh of relief and lowered her head to change her t shoes. When she bent over to put the shoes in ce, the man suddenly stood behind her. He ced his warm palms around her waist. She was pulled back a bit. Her hips leaned against the sturdy thighs of the man. "Ah!" Shu Tian was shocked and quickly stood up. She wanted to turn around, but he pushed her directly onto the shoe cab in front of her. She propped the edge of the cab with her hands and tilted her head slightly, "Li Han ..." "I''m here," as the man spoke, his hand had already probed into her skirt, and his rough movements made the woman exim. "What ... What happened to you?" her instincts told her that Li Han was abnormal today. "I''m not in a good mood," one of the intiffsmitted suicide at home in a case he had epted. The intiff was a single mother, who was in a simr situation to his childhood experience. He could not help but feel a little emotional. At this time, it was useless to talk too much. The best thing was to have passionate sex. It was all about instinct and he did not think about anything at all. However, such a strong invasion reminded Shu Tian of Tang Zechen. Especially she turned her back on him. So she could not see his face clearly, which made her even more frightened. She asked reluctantly, "I don''t want to have sex today. Can we do it another time? I really don''t want to ..." Li Han had never thought about her feelings. If he wanted to have sex, he would do that. But today, he could not continue because the woman in front of him started to tremble. He paused, grabbed her shoulder, and turned her around. Under the dim wallmp at the entrance, the woman''s face was ghastly pale, and tears began to fill her eyes. The man''s gaze suddenly stopped when he looked down. At this moment, there was a dark red blood scab on the corner of her lips, which was originally pale pink. He remembered that there wasn''t a scab when she left today. Shu Tian saw that he suddenly became gloomy. Before he could speak, the man suddenly leaned over and sniffed at her cor. His anger was growing, "You didn''t go to the hospital." Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat. Before she could exin herself, the man''s fingers were already pressed against the corner of her mouth. With the strength that was enough to make her feel pain, he rubbed against the corner of her mouth. A few timester, dark red blood oozed out from the scabbed area and started to trickle down the corner of her lips. Shu Tian was in pain and moaned in a low voice, not daring to make any other sound. The man in front of him had a cold gleam in his eyes as if a violent storm had beening. She lied. Li Han looked at her lips stained with blood and pressed them hard, "Exin." Shu Tian was frightened by him, and she made an apology, "I''m ... I''m sorry." Li fu smiled, which made her hair stand on end, "So you lied to me, huh?" Shu Tian opened her mouth but could not make a sound. Her throat seemed to be choked by someone. "I don''t like people lying to me the most," Li Han''s gaze was like a knife with a cold gleam. He raised his hand to caress her cheeks. The fine skin beneath his fingers was so delicate that it made people want to destroy it, "Tell me, how shall I punish you?" After he finished speaking, he did not give Shu Tian any chance to breathe. He grabbed her long hair and pulled her back, forcing her to raise her head. He bit her neck like a ferocious beast, leaving the hickey. Shu Tianshed out at him. She identally swept her arm across the bag on the shoe cab. The bag fell to the ground. With a crash, the documents inside were scattered all over the floor. Li fu didn''t want to stop, but when he saw the words ''divorce agreement'' out of the corner of his eye, he instinctively stopped. He nced at the trembling woman in front of him and bent down to pick up the document. It only took a few seconds to figure out why she lied, "You went to see him." Shu Tian wrapped her arms around herself and nodded when her eyes glistened with tears, "He ... He called my mom to tell her that I''m being indecent. She doesn''t know we''re getting a divorce yet." Li Han put the divorce agreement aside and lifted her chin, "Did he cause the wound of your mouth?" Chapter 16 Chapter 16 "...Okay." "What else did you do?" Shu Tian paused, then shook her head immediately. "No, his mother came after that." Li Han looked at the woman''s obsidian eyes. Her eyes were big and full of energy. It was only because they had been drenched in tears that they were more clear and moving. Every man seeing that would have evil intentions, let alone her ex-husband, who was a coward. "I will definitely help you win this case." He added. "Let Tang Zechen lose his reputation." Shu Tian stared at him in a daze. Even though she had once said her request, now that he had said it out loud, it felt like there was anotheryer of meaning in it. It was like he was going after Tang Zechen. Just as Shu Tian was in a daze, her shirt had already been torn open by the man. She grabbed the messy hand but was pushed away by him. His movements were much gentler than before. "Give it to me." "I don'' t want to do it today." She repeated. Li Han rarelypromised. "I'' ll be gentle." She could not refuse him because he really wanted it. Under the dim yellow light at the door, the woman''s long legs were hanging on the man''s waist and her body was pressed against the shoe cab. She was forced to wrap her arms around his neck. She was naked, but his clothes were in good condition. Shu Tian closed her eyes, not wanting to see the unbearable scene in front of her. "Who am I?" His hoarse voice whispered in her ear. "Li Han ..." The woman''s voice was naturally soft, and it was now even more charming. Li Han''s eyes were bloodshot. "Call me by my name." Shu Tian was bewitched by him. "Li Han, Li Han ..." In the end, Shu Tian almost fainted. Her wet hair clung to her face, and he whispered in her ear as he brushed it away. "Remember whose woman you are. If someone touches you, I won'' t let you off either." ... The passionate affairsted one hour. From an ufortable shudder to full-on devotion, she was defeated by the tide of emotions brought on by Li Han, and it was hard to hold herself back. Li Han never cared about her after the end, but this time, he carried her horizontally and ced her on the bed in the master bedroom on the second floor. "Have a good sleep." Shu Tian was drenched in sweat and tried to get up, but her voice was still hoarse. "I want to take a shower." Li Han saw that she insisted. "I'' ll help you." He was about to pick her up when Shu Tian suddenly lost her temper and kicked him on the shoulder with her almond eyes wide open. "No." If he helped her, she couldn''t imagine what was going to happen. Li Han looked at the small feet on his shoulder. The five chubby toes looked like white jade. He grabbed the woman''s slender ankles and pulled them. "I won'' t do anything." This position, this movement. Shu Tian wouldn''t believe him. "I can do it myself." "Then help me with it." "..." Shu Tian''s voice was muffled. "That''s the same." "So just listen to me, ok?" Shu Tian could not resist him. She was carried to the bathroom. The shower was turned on, and the warm andfortable water washed her body. Even she had only done it once, she still could not look straight at the man''s strong body. Li Han noticed her avoiding gaze and held the back of her head with one hand, forcing her to look at him. "Afraid of me?" Shu Tian blinked the beads of water that came into her eyes and resisted the fear in her heart. "No." The man narrowed his eyes. "I don'' t like people to lie." Shu Tian awkwardly changed her words. "Just a little... " "What are you afraid of?" "It''s ... It''s just that you always force me. I'' m a little reluctant ..." Shu Tian was absolutely inferior to Li Han in the matter of sex. "You don'' t like it?" Original content from N?velDrama.Org. Shu Tian choked and coughed until her face turned red. She jumped to the spot where the shower couldn''t be sprayed. "I ... I ... I didn'' t mean that!" "Then you like it." "..." Shu Tian had nothing to say. She was crazy that she actually wanted tomunicate with Li Han. This man was never on the same channel as hers! The two of them washed up and Li Han did not touch her as he had said. Just as Shu Tian thought that he had changed, the man beside her suddenly spoke up. "Remember to apply the medicine. I couldn'' t control myself just now. You''re a little injured." Shu Tian was slightly taken aback. It turned out that he wasn''tpletely fearless ... She finally felt a sense of relief in her uneasy heart, but she did not reply. She just changed into her pajamas. Lying on the soft bed, her tensed up mood finally rxed. No one came to her side for a long time, and she could not help but look at the man in the bathroom. The bathroom door was not closed, and the hazy fog was a little loose. She could vaguely see Li Han''s handsome face. Thinking of the way he had talked to her in a serious manner, her heart beat faster. Shu Tian simply put the quilt over her head and went to sleep. ... Shu Tian slept very soundly that night. In the middle of the night, she had a nightmare. In her dream, Tang Zechen, Jiang Mengyao, and the parents of both families sat together. Everyone med her, even her biological parents. They said that she was indecent, that she was someone else''s mistress and that she was not deserved to be a qualified wife... Shu Tian felt cold all over. She wanted to say something but could not make a sound. In a daze, her body was embraced into a warm embrace, followed by someone muttering in her ear. "Shu Tian?" The scene in front of her gradually shattered, and she returned to her peaceful sleepiness, thinking that everything was just an illusion. At half past six the next morning, Li Han woke up on time. He looked at the small body that was wrapped in his arms and frowned slightly. He subconsciously wanted to push her away, but he remembered the way she was whispering with her eyes closedst night. Hisrge palm paused and then slowly pulled the woman''s hands away. He didn'' t wake her up. He exercised, washed up, and ate breakfast alone. After leaving the Imperial Garden vi, Zhang Bikun was already waiting by the roadside. When he saw himing over, he immediately got out of the car and opened the door on the left of the backseat. "Morning, Boss Li." Li Han nodded slightly in response. The car drove smoothly. Halfway through, Li Han suddenly spoke up. "Bikun, give me a copy of Tang Zechen''s information after the morning meeting." Zhang Bikun knew that Li Han had epted a divorcewsuit, and the main characters were clear. "Got it, Boss Li." "Also, send someone to observe the Tang family''s actions and find an opportunity to create some evidence." Thinking of the wound on Shu Tian''s mouth, Li Han''s expression darkened. Zhang Bikun was a little surprised. After all, to Li Han, he didn''t have to resort to any special methods in such a case. But this time, it was unusual ... "Ok, I'' ll send someone to arrange it." Li Han looked out of the window at the street view, his handsome face emitting a cold aura. If someone dared to touch his people, he would make the Tang family die without even knowing how. Chapter 17 Chapter 17 That afternoon, Liu Lifang took Jiang Mengyao to the furniture city to look at the bed and sofa. Ever Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. since Shu Tian wanted to divorce Tang Zechen, she had looked for a master to read her fortune. The master said that if she wanted to change the feng shui at home, she had to change the bed and sofa. Of course, Liu Lifang hoped that Shu Tian would not divorce Tang Zechen. After all, divorce was too troublesome, and the worse consequence was she would have to split the family''s assets. Although she didn''t look at Shu Tian very favorable, she was an easy target to bully. If she asked her to go east, she definitely wouldn''t dare to go west. Jiang Mengyao took Liu Lifang by the arm intimately, "Auntie, what are we doing here?" Liu Lifang''s old eyes flickered and told a lie without blinking. "Isn'' t this preparing for you and Zechen? It''s time to change the furniture at home, especially these furniture for people to sit and lie down." Jiang Mengyao took it for granted and smiled so hard that her face was blooming. She was modest. "How dare I let my auntie spend the money?" Liu Lifang cooperated and waved her hand. "I should spend, I should spend!" The two of them spent the entire afternoon shopping and finally picked out a European-style double bed and a full set of leather sofas. When checking out to pick up the furniture, they were told by the vendor that it was out of stock and would need to be transferred tomorrow, so to make up for that he could do a home instation. Liu Lifang did not worry about the time. After paying the money, she left with satisfaction. The news quickly reached Li Han''s ears through Zhang Bikun, and the man thought for a moment. "Find someone on our side to install it and put it in the room." As he spoke, he took out a state-of-the-art needle-shaped camera from the drawer, which was very small and invisible, and could not be detected with a metal detector at all. The original development cost a lot of money. As the most domestic powerfulw firm, it was impossible not to have some special methods. Of course, these gray zones were not allowed to be revealed. Li Han had never used these methods easily, but now it was an exception. Zhang Bikun took it and silently made a mark for Miss Shu in his heart. He must not neglect her at the next time he met her. "Boss Li, the interview for the autumn recruitment will be held tomorrow. The time is set at ten in the morning and the regr meeting will be postponed until three in the afternoon. Is that okay?" Zhang Bikun took out his schedule and examined the proposal carefully. Li Han agreed. When Zhang Bikun went out, he picked up the phone on the table and put it down again when he thought of something. He walked to therge shelf in the corner of the office and stopped for a while to find two books rted to human resource. They were not very thick. Looking at the cover of the book, on top of which was an abstract figure of a woman''s back, a white shirt, ck trousers, and a typical OL professional dress, he could not help but think of what Shu Tian would look like in it. With that thought in mind, he called the international clothing store he often ordered. "Deliver this season''s new women''s clothes, shirts and skirts to Imperial Garden vi." ... When Shu Tian received these clothes, she was reading on her mobile phone in the living room. Someone rang the doorbell, but she didn''t expect two women to push two rows of hangers into the room. "Hello, Ms. Shu. We are the shop assistants of C brand at Qianxingwan za. Please sign your clothes." Shu Tian took a look at the clothes covered by a transparent cover on the long clothes rack and asked. "I didn'' t order any clothes. Did you send the wrong one?" The shop assistant smiled kindly. "Mr. Li ordered it himself. It''s not wrong." Mr. Li? Li Han? Shu Tian looked at the row of women''s clothes and a very unlikely and strange idea came to her mind. However, she still smiled calmly. "Please wait a moment." Shu Tian walked to the window and took out her cell phone to call Li Han. "Li Han, did you order clothes for me?" The man on the other end was calm. "Yes." Shu Tian turned back to look at the two shop assistants, smiled sulkily, and turned away. "I can''t wear that many clothes ..." "Throw it away if you can'' t wear it." Someone seemed to be calling him on the other end of the line, and then she heard the man''s impatient voice. "Anything else?" "No, no, I'' m disturbing your work. Bye ..." Before the other bye could be said, the phone had already been hung up. Shu Tian looked at the end-of-call screen and gritted her teeth angrily. Thirty-two years old, did he have premature climacteric? Shu Tian took back her phone and walked to the door. She politely signed the clothes and watched the two shop assistants carry her clothes from the first floor to the second floor. They hung clothes neatly on the shelf in the cloakroom. In the end, when Shu Tian sent people to the door, the shop assistant was used to seeing many kinds of rich women. Most of them were arrogant. This was the first time she had seen such a polite rich woman. She couldn''t help but praise her. "Miss Shu, you are so happy to have such a husband who treats you so well." Shu Tian looked a little awkward. "Not my husband." The shop assistant was stunned, then smiled even more sweetly. "It turns out that he''s your boyfriend. He''s done even better to you." After a long while to finish the conversation, Shu Tian closed the door and sighed deeply. What kind of boyfriend is he? For Li Han, she may be just a toy for his amusement. Shu Tian shook her head, forbidding herself from thinking too much. She went upstairs and went back to her closet. She casually took a shirt. It was brand new and had a price tag on it. She nced at it and her eyes almost popped out. Seven thousand eight hundred? ! This piece of cloth was too thin to worth seven thousand eight hundred! Shu Tian looked at another dress. Twenty-three thousand yuan ... She gave up. This was not a dress but simply a pile of China Yuan. How rich was Li Han to buy all the female clothes from the luxury brands of the current season for her? He was really ... generous to her. Shu Tian only thought that Li Han would buy clothes for her because he was bored or didn''t like her taste, but she didn''t expect that there was a deeper reason. At 9: 30 pm, Li Han returned to Imperial Garden vi with a very sudden news. "Interview? !" Shu Tian thought she heard something wrong. The man raised his phoenix eyes. "Don'' t bete for the Han Yiw office b-201 conference room tomorrow morning at ten o'' clock." Shu Tian only digested the message after a long time. Seeing him go upstairs, she followed him and kept asking. "Did you arrange for me to go to the Han Yiw office?" "Yes." "There are so many legal institutions, why ..." On the stairs, the man stopped in his tracks and turned his body, his gaze full of oppression. "You don'' t want to go?" Shu Tian gulped, not daring to tell the truth. "I want to go! Is there ... any other choice?" Li Han ignored her and continued to walk towards the wardrobe. Usually, when he went home to change clothes, Shu Tian had always avoided it. Today, she was in a daze and followed him all the way in. Seeing that he didn'' t show any signs, Shu Tian reminded him weakly. "Of course I want to go to the Han Yiw office, but I'' m thinking about you. After all, our rtionship, if in the samepany, seems inappropriate ..." Li Han stopped pulling his tie and looked over. "What is our rtionship?" Shu Tian was stunned by his question. Realizing what she said, she quickly closed her mouth and shook her head. However, Li Han did not intend to let her off. His height was nearly 1.9 meters tall to block the light behind him. He leaned slightly and supported the wardrobe behind her with one hand. "En?" Chapter 18 Chapter 18 It was only then that Shu Tian could smell the faint scent of alcohol on the man''s body. It was different from the usual unpleasant smell and was even more mellow and charming when mixed with the scent of pine on his body. Shu Tian''s back and heels were pressed against the counter behind her, "I ... I mean, I'' m afraid of causing you unnecessary trouble." Even she herself did not believe what she said, let alone Li Han. Her little thoughts were easy to be understood. Li Han couldn''t be bothered to expose her. From the corner of his eye, he saw a pink dress with a deep V-neck and a good-quality diamond in the cor behind her. He casually took it out, "Put it on." The topic was changed so fast that Shu Tian could hardly keep up. "Now?" It was almost 10: 00. "Now." Shu Tian didn''t dare to disobey. She took the dress and wanted to change it in the bedroom. But her wrist was grabbed by him, "You just change it here." "..." She knew it. Shu Tian could only stand as far away from him as possible. With her back to the man, she quickly took off her pajamas and put the dress on her body randomly. It simply had no zipper, so it wouldn''t take much effort. Shu Tian turned around and nervously met the man''s burning gaze, "It''s changed." The pink chiffon fabric was light and airy, and the mature design of the deep V-neck contained some fresh immortal breath. Her skin was fair, and her entire body seemed to glow under the light, especially at the neckline ... Li Han was at a dinner party tonight. Although he had restrained himself from drinking much alcohol, he felt a little dry at the moment. Original content from N?velDrama.Org. Changing her clothes made him burn up. She was really good at it. The man smirked at himself and walked over quickly. He lifted her up and pressed her against the wall. Shu Tian was afraid that she would fall down, so she could only wrap her arms around his neck. Shu Tian did not dare to look at his eyes at this moment. Every time, his eyes were especially ... Fierce. The temperature in the cloakroom was rising steadily. Shu Tian''s cheeks were stained with peach red and her body was tinged with a faint pink. "You'' re so beautiful." Shu Tian was so ashamed that her toes were curled up. This was the first time he had praised her so openly. However, it was not long before Li Han threw a dress over, "Wear this tomorrow." After that, he walked out of the closet. Shu Tian picked it up and took a look. The ck and white dress was fastened to her corbone, and the skirts were also under her knees. She was suddenly speechless and realized that she didn''t need to care and she didn''t n to wear it anyway, okay? ... The next morning, Shu Tian didn''t sleep in. She woke up after five o ''clock. Shey in bed until six o ''clock. Li Han got up and went to the family gym on the third floor to exercise. She thought about it and followed him. The biggest room on the third floor was changed into a gym which was equipped with a treadmill, a bicycle, heavy machinery, and all kinds of equipment. Li Han was running regrly on the treadmill. He was wearing a light gray sleeveless tight-fitting vest, with a pair of ck sweatpants to his knees, and a pair of ck and white sports shoes on his feet. His bangs weren'' t tidied up properly as usual, but were sprawled on his forehead. Beads of sweat dripped down his neck and into his cor, leaving a dark stain. Suddenly, an indescribable image shed through Shu Tian''s mind. The sweat on his chin also dripped on herst night ... Bah, bah, bah! What were you thinking! Shu Tian blushed and turned away. Seeing that Li Han ignored her, she walked to a small running machine beside him. She stood on its track and switched on the switch. She thought that it would turn slowly like a treadmill in an ordinary gym, but she didn''t expect that it would be extremely fast. She didn''t have time to step and couldn''t keep up with the speed. She hit the speed belt and was sent to the ground ... "Shu Tian!" When Li Han heard the scream and wanted to pull her, it was toote. Shu Tian felt a dumb pain in her knees, followed by a sharp pain. She knelt on the ground and hugged her knees, tears rolling in her eyes. Li Han turned off the treadmill and picked her up without a word. There was an undetectable sense of anxiety in his steps towards the bedroom. Li Han ced her on the bed, took the medicine box, and pulled her pants away. Her right knee was swollen without any broken skin, and a piece of flesh of her left knee was hit. The wound was not deep, but the area was not small. Fresh red blood flowed down her calf. Li Han frowned and took out the medicine to sterilize it, "Bear with it." Just as Shu Tian was about to nod her head, her knees suddenly turned cold. Following that, liquid seeped into the wound, causing her to almost bite and break her lower lip, "Mmm!" It was not easy to endure this sharp pain. Seeing that Li Han wanted to wash the wound for the second time, Shu Tian refused to do that, "I don''t want to wash it anymore. It hurts so much ..." Li Han pressed her calf ankle which she was about to withdraw, "The wound needs to be disinfected and cleaned." After saying that, he directly ced her leg on his, preventing her from retracting in pain. Li Han poured some more medicine on the wound and carefully wiped it clean with cotton swabs. Shu Tian was in so much pain that she could not say a word. It really hurt too much and was just a heart- wrenching feeling. Soon after, he took out the medicine that Gu Ze had prescribed. He usually prepared it to prevent special circumstances. He didn''t expect it toe in handy now. After carefully applying the ointment to her wound, Li Han released her leg. The woman on the bed looked very pale. Li Han seemed to be helpless and sighed, "You can fall so hard with a treadmill. Shu Tian, what do you want me to say about you?" Shu Tian felt aggrieved too, "How would I know that your treadmill is so fast ..." Li Han knew that she fell painfully, so he didn''t continue to pick on her. He nced at her leg injury and said, " I''ll cancel the interview for you today." Chapter 19 Chapter 19 "Ah?" Shu Tian stared at him. "No, I can go." "How are you going to do that now?" Shu Tian pursed her lips and said firmly. "I can go." She would go no matter how hard. It was a rare opportunity. If she missed this opportunity, she didn''t know when she would have the next one. Although she would be sure to enter the Han Yiw office if Li Han say something nice for her, Shu Tian understood that this man would not give others privilege without any principles. So she can''t miss it. Li Han didn''t expect that she would cry in pain the moment before, and shed blood for work the next. He had wanted to say that maybe they could take a different time to interview, but now it seemed that there was no need. It''s the best thing she can do for herself. Li Han concealed his admiration and stood up, his voice still calm. "Don'' t bete if you can." ... As it turned out, Shu Tian was very effective. She limped to the door of the Han Yiw office at 10 a.m. And was easily released by the front desk when she was qualified for the interview. She found the B-201 conference room. There were seven or eight young girls sitting in a row outside the door. They all looked young and were twenty-five or twenty-six years old, even the oldest seemed to be twenty-eight or twenty-night. Shu Tian looked down at her dress. It was the ck and white dress that Li Han had picked for her yesterday. She had put on light makeup today and tied her hair up. It looked much more neat. "Hey, I heard that the president of the Han Yiw office, Li Han, is super handsome and extraordinary. Is he interviewing us in person today?" Not far away, a young girl was chatting enthusiastically with an acquaintance of her peers. "No way. Li Han is so busy that he probably doesn''t have time, but if it''s really him, it''s worth it even if rejected by Han Yi!" Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Shu Tian''s eyebrows twitched when she heard this. She couldn''t help but look in the direction of the two of them. She muttered to herself, how could Li Han be so good? A group of naive youngdies couldn''t see the true self of the wolf at all. The interview soon began, and the interviewers were the Han Yi''s three HR managers, all sitting together, in the form of group interview. Finally, Shu Tian and another man and woman were epted. "We''ll have a second interview in a moment. Prepare yourselves for it." After HR manager finished speaking, he went into another independent meeting room. Shu Tian sat outside and prayed that she would not be the first one, but unluckily she was really the first one... "Shu Tian,e in." "..." Shu Tian took a deep breath and pushed the door open to enter. She walked to the chair in the middle of the room and sat down. She looked up at the three main officials in front of her. "Hello everyone, my name is Shu Tian. I''m..." She suddenly stopped and her pupils trembled slightly. She looked at the man sitting in the middle of the ck suit and white shirt in surprise. It turned out that Li Han was really the chief interviewer? "Miss Shu?" Seeing her in a daze, the HR manager reminded her. Shu Tian came back to her senses and tried to adjust her mindset, but she could not help but feel nervous when she met Li Han''s gaze, causing her to stumble over a self-introduction. "You haven'' t worked since you graduated from Toronto University one year ago. What''s the reason?" Shu Tian felt a little ashamed when speak of this. "I was busy getting married, so it was dyed." "You are in the state of divorce. I want to know if it''s because of the divorce that you want to engage in legal work?" HR manager¡¯s speed was very fast, and Shu Tian was nervous. She couldn''t know what she was really trying to find out, so she nodded. "That''s right." After asking a few more questions, Shu Tian answered them in a normal manner. At this moment, Li Han, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke up. "Miss Shu has no work experience and no actualbat experience. As a newbie, what do you think your core strengths are? Are those worth our admission?" When Shu Tian heard his voice, she felt nervous. She felt like a secret rtionship had been exposed. Even if it was impossible for others to know, she felt guilty. Especially now that Li Han asked her, she had to look at his face politely and answer him. She couldn''t even avoid him. "Although I don'' t have any relevant work experience, everyone knows that the University of Toronto is a school with high requirements inw major. At that time, I entered the university on a full schrship, and my graduation results were among the best. My thesis was also published in the school journal. I think my biggest advantage is my professionalism. And understanding of thew." "Then tell me your understanding in one sentence." Shu Tian said after a moment of silence. "Everyone says that thew is steady, unchangeable and has a standard of sentencing, but I think thew is also alive. It can take thousands of forms through a good Li Han''s lips curved imperceptibly. "What does Miss Shu think is the most important thing in legal work?" Shu Tian''s mood gradually calmed down, and she was no longer as nervous as before. "I think it''s fair, objective and calm." "You engaged in legal work because you divorced your ex husband, is that in line with the principle you just mentioned?" Li Han seemed to ask a question casually. However, Shu Tian was alerted by him. No wonder HR manager asked that just now, Was it for the fear of that she would conceal something because of her divorce? Shu Tian exined immediately. "It is. Because I have enough time and energy to return to legal profession. In fact, I have been wanting to return since my marriage for more than a year." This exnation made the audience feel much morefortable. Li Han did not speak again for the rest of the time. On the contrary, another man beside him asked some professional questions, and Shu Tian answered them one by one. At the end of the interview, Shu Tian stood up, feeling a little awkward. One of the manager was a woman, so she asked politely. "What happened to your foot?" Shu Tian smiled awkwardly. "I identally fell down during the exercising. It''s not a big deal. I'' l be fine in a few days." She nodded and waited for Shu Tian to leave before she smiled. She couldn''t help but tease her. "Falling down while exercising. It''s quite impressive." Li Han was about to flip through the next resume when he heard this. His fingertips paused for a second, and the smile in his eyes was fleeting. It was so fast that no one could catch it. ... After the interview, Shu Tian was about to leave when she was stopped by a man in a white shirt. "Miss Shu, I''m the secretary of Boss Li, Zhang Bikun. He asked you to wait for him in his office." He lowered his voice. Shu Tian also knew that it was inconvenient to speak here. She didn''t hesitate and followed him to his office. However, Zhang Bikun didn''t let her enter directly from the front door. Instead, they went to his office first, opened the small door, and went straight to Li Han''s office. Shu Tian was surprised. "You have this kind of secret passageway?" "..." Zhang Bikun''s lips twitched. "Take it as a side door." Zhang Bikun gave her a ss of warm water and left. Shu Tian was the only person in the huge office. After waiting for a while, she saw that no one wasing in. She walked to the desk and wanted to see the books on his desk, but she identally saw a photo frame next to theputer. It was a picture from a long time ago, so the pixels were not very clear. The boy''s temperament was clean and the girl''s smile was sweet. The boy reached out and held the girl''s shoulder. His posture was intimate. If it weren''t for the fact that his eyes would not change, Shu Tian would not have recognized that the man was Li Han. Chapter 20 Chapter 20 In her impression, Li Han would not smile, but in the photo, he was smiling happily. It was a smile that came from the bottom of his heart. Icebergs melt and it felt warmer than spring, something like that. Shu Tian couldn''t help but pick it up and take a closer look. The girl next to him was very beautiful. She had long hair and big eyes. Her face was only the size of a palm. Standing together, they made a perfect match. Shu Tian originally only wanted to see it, but when she looked at it, she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. "What are you doing?" A low male voice suddenly sounded from behind her. Shu Tian''s hand trembled, and the photo frame fell on the table, making a loud'' ng''. She felt a panic out of nowhere. "Nothing, nothing." The man walked up to her with long legs, picked up the photo frame, and ced it in the center. He turned to look at her, his eyes filled with displeasure. "Who told you to touch it?" Shu Tian swallowed unconsciously. "I didn''t mean to see it. It''s on the table ..." Li Han didn''t want to pursue the matter, but he subconsciously corrected her after hearing what she said. "You will also pick up someone''s wallet when it is on the table?" "I'' m sorry." Shu Tian bit her lip and lowered her eyelids. She thought that Li Han was angry that she had smashed the photo frame and felt that the woman in the photo should be very important to him. He must like that girl. But since that was the case, why did he still need to look for her? Li Han could not see her expression. He walked around her and sat on the leather chair. He ced the interview information on the table. "How are your legs?" Shu Tian was feeling sad in her heart and she suddenly felt emotional upon hearing his question. She clenched her fists and turned around to look at him. "Li Han, do you have a girlfriend?" The man''s hand that was flipping through the documents paused. He looked toward her and the little woman''s face turned red. She looked a little aggrieved. He raised his eyebrows slightly. "Why ask?" Shu Tian took a deep breath. "If you have a girlfriend, then let''s not be together. I don''t want to be the same kind person as Jiang Mengyao." Li Han frowned when he heard her mention Jiang Mengyao. "What girlfriend?" He had lived for 32 years. Though he did interact with women, he always ended the rtionships at the beginning because he never had that feeling. It was hard to even have an ambiguous rtionship with anyone, let alone a girlfriend. Shu Tian raised her chin at the photo on the table. "That." Li Han understood andughed. "That''s my sister." "" Shu Tian''s face froze. Sister ... Sister? "Biological sister?" "We are not rted by blood, but she''s very close to me." Shu Tian choked, so she misunderstood? As soon as she lowered her head, she met the man''s teasing gaze. Shu Tian''s ears slowly turned red and she smiled apologetically. "Why didn''t you mention that you have such a big sister before? Hehe ..." "Are you jealous?" "No!" Her denial is too quick to be true. Shu Tian inwardly med herself and repeated it again in fear. "I really wasn''t." As Li Han raised his hand, the wristwatch next to the cuff of his white shirt shined. He pointed at Shu Tian''s ear. "It''s red." "" You have to say it? You think I don''t know? N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner. Shu Tian decided to change the subject. "Well, how was my interview?" Li Han nced at the documents on the table. "You want to know?" "Yes, yes." The man waved. "You can see it from that distance? Come here." Shu Tian instinctively sensed his trick, but in order to take a look at her results ... Alright, she still had to go obediently. She moved to the man''s side step by step. When she was half a arm''s length away from him, her wrist was grabbed by him and she was pulled into a wide and warm embrace. Shu Tian felt the strong thighs under her butt and wanted to stand up, only to be pressed down on her shoulder. "Don'' t you want to know the results?" "It''s not convenient for me to sit here like this." Li Han chuckled and changed his position. "How about this?" Shu Tian was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in, and she wiggled her little butt restlessly. "Don'' t move." The man suddenly increased his strength on her shoulder, his voice a little hoarse. This voice was familiar to Shu Tian. Every time they were in bed in the dead of night, he always spoke in that smoking hot voice... Well, they were in the office now ... Shu Tian would never know how hard it was for Li Han to hold himself when she was writhing on his When she felt the change in the man''s body, she frozepletely and didn''t dare to move, but it was obviously toote. Shu Tian reminded him with a blushing face, "Li Han, we''re in the office ..." "I know." Li Han even took out her grade sheet with one hand. "Yours." She had only asked about her grades normally, how did it end up like this? It looked a bit like she was trading a good grade with herself... Shu Tian''s face was red as she looked down carefully. Unexpectedly, the HR manager gave her the highest score. On the other hand, another man gave her a not-so-high score. Li Han''s grading was average. Shu Tian calcted the total score and the average score. Trying to look at the results of the other two interviewers, she kept leaning forward little by little. She just needed to be a little closer so she could see... Shu Tian screamed out loud and immediately covered her mouth. When she saw the results, the man behind her rushed into her body without any warning. Shu Tian covered her mouth with one hand and supported herself with the other against the table. However, that man did not seem to have enough. He tried to torture her. "Tell me, what''s your score, hmm?" Shu Tian shook her head. Li Han refused to let her off. "Be good, tell me." Shu Tian gritted her teeth and remained silent. How could he do this in broad daylight, in here. She could not help but curse softly, "You are shameless ..." Unexpectedly, Li Hanughed when he heard this. His chest trembled slightly and he let out a deep moment. Li Han leaned over her ear. "Read your score." Shu Tian was so embarrassed but she finally spoke, "9.5, 9 ..." Li Han''s forehead was already covered with a thinyer of sweat. It was obvious that he was having a difficult time enduring it too. "What''s the final number?" Shu Tian could no longer stand this. She was angry, anxious, helpless, and aggrieved. "8.5!" It was not until then that Li Han activated every cell in his body and tried his best to please the woman in front of him. In the end, Shu Tian''s hand on the table was sore. Li Han finally let go of her. Sweat trickled down his temples, he said, "Congrattions, Miss Shu. You''ve been hired." Chapter 21 Chapter 21 When she walked out of the Han Yi Law Office, Shu Tian was still cursing. Although Li Han had arranged a driver for her this time, it was all because of what he had just done to her. Shu Tian rubbed her shoulder and scolded him. When she went to work in the future, she would have to stay away from him. Otherwise, she would have been taken away by him at any time to do anything. How could she finish her work? "Miss Shu, are you going straight back to Imperial Garden?" The driver asked kindly. Shu Tian thought for a moment. "Let''s go to HongYuan Community." She should go back to visit her parents, not only because she had not seen them for a long time, but also because that thing about Tang Zechen. The car stopped at the entrance of HongYuan Community half an hourter. Shu Tian got out of the car and went upstairs with tonic bought from the store. There was no elevator in the old neighborhood, so she climbed up the fourth floor along with a pile of things. It was Ye Lihua who opened the door. When she saw her carrying many bags, she immediately took them. "Why didn''t you call me and your father when you arrived? We would go downstairs to help you." "It''s okay, mom. There''s no need to bother you." "Come in." The mother and daughter entered the apartment with two bedrooms and a living room. Shu Changlei was practicing calligraphy on the table in the dining room. It was a habit he had developed over the years and he had to practice it every day. "Dad." Shu Tian walked over and called affectionately. Shu Changlei had been very kind to her since she was a child. He doted on her and never yed the strict role in educating. Even if she got married, he would still treat her like a child every time she came Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. back. However, Shu Changlei departed from his normal behavior today and answered angrily. "Why did you Shu Tian did not understand. Ye Lihua tried to let the embarrassment go. "Alright, our daughter is back. Why are you still angry?!" "Why do you think I am angry? Her inws have already called us toin. I''m ashamed!" With that, Shu Changlei threw his writing brush onto the table. Shu Tian was very nervous when she understood what happened. "Dad, did Tang Zechene and talk to you?" After hearing that, Ye Lihua sighed and pulled Shu Tian aside. "It''s not Zechen, it''s Liu Lifang." Shu Tian frowned. "Why did shee ?" Ye Lihua looked at her daughter hesitantly and she told her everything. "Tian, have you been home recently?" "..." Shu Tian had thought that Tang Zechen might threaten her with this, but she really didn''t think that he would tell her parents. Shu Changlei thought it was the truth since she did not say anything. He was even angrier. "Shu Tian, no matter how big the problem is, you should go home because you are married. Do you know that you will make peopleugh at you?" Shu Tian was stunned, "Why?" If there was anyone that shall beughed at, it should be Tang Zechen, the jerk. "If you, a woman, don''t go home. What do you think is the matter? She, Liu Lifang, came to tell me that someone was having an affair with you. Your mother and I were speechless!" Initially, they did not want to say anything about that, thinking that the younger generation would solve it on their own. However, when Shu Tian arrived today, Shu Changlei could not hold back his anger. It was toote for Liu Lifang to calm him down. What had been said could not be unsaid. Shu Tian looked at Shu Changlei in disbelief. "Dad, what are you talking about? Why do you nder me as others do?" Now, she didn''t care how the Tang family see her. She was only concerned about her parents'' views on her. No matter how Liu Lifang scolded her, she didn''t care. But Shu ChangLei''s reprimand would make her sad. It was only then that Shu Tian felt like she had truly broken down. "Is it me who has an affair? Tang Zechen was fooling around with Jiang Mengyao, and now you tell me how shall I go back! That house is no longer my home!" After saying that, Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua were stunned. There was too much information for the old couple to understand. "You said that Zechen is fooling around with someone else?" Shu Tian took a deep breath. She didn''t want to say anything, but Shu Changlei''s words were undoubtedly thest straw that crushed her. "Yes, I''m not cheating on him. It''s Liu Lifang who is distorting the truth for her son!" After saying that, Shu Tian felt a little extreme and calmed down. "Dad, mom, I''ve already decided to get a divorce. From now on, you don''t have to care about the Tang Family." "Divorce? !" Ye Lihua was stunned for seconds, then sat down on the sofa. Tears welled up in her eyes. "What a sin!" Shu Changlei obviously did not expect such an oue. Compared to Ye Lihua''s sadness, he was even angrier. "Shu Tian, when you wanted to marry Tang Zechen, you didn''t even listen to our objections. Divorce? That''s easy to say. Do you know what you''re going to face after the divorce?" "I know, so what? I still have to face it!" Shu Tian couldn''t help but raise her voice. She wasn''t the one who did anything wrong. Why did everyone me her? Shu Changlei''s chest heaved heavily. "Since it is your choice, there is no way out. You have to bear with it. Divorce? I cannot afford to be so disgraceful! " Shu Changlei worked in government agencies for many years. Even though he was dismissed, he was still extremely face-saving. Shu Tian''s rebuttal was blocked by this sentence. There was no need to say anything. No matter how much you said, the one who did not understand would not agree with you. "Alright, I''m embarrassing you. I''ll leave." Shu Tian picked up her bag and kept walking towards the door. Ye Lihua did not hold her back. Seeing her leave in anger, she could not help but shed tears. "Shu Changlei, if anything happens to our daughter, we''re going to divorce, too!" ... When Shu Tian came out of the stairwell, she cried. She ran to the small garden in themunity and sat on the stone bench. She silently shed tears. Thinking of Shu Changlei asking her bear with it, Shu Tian''s heart was broken. Pretending nothing happened? She was selfish and could not ignore what had happened, let alone allow others to trample on her feelings. Jiang Mengyao and Tang Zechen''s affair was like bull shit. It disgusted her all the time, and she could not convince herself. Shu Tian sniffled. She had never wanted much. She loved Tang Zechen so much before. No matter what he did, she would only ept it. Even if Liu Lifang bullied her, she could bear it as long as he loved her. Unfortunately, he didn''t want to give at all. Yes, she had chosen this herself. Was it wrong that she married a man who she loved wholeheartedly regardless of her parents'' objection. She was married to a bad husband. Why was it a big mistake for her to love him wholeheartedly? It was because that this love was born iplete. "Buzz" The cell phone in her pocket was vibrating, Shu Tian didn''t seem to hear it. But it''s like the caller was ying against her. If she didn''t pick up, it kept vibrating. She took out her cell phone and saw that it was the damn Tang Zechen. "Hello, what took you so long to answer?" Tang Zechen''s impatient voice sounded. Shu Tian''s entire body was filled with grievances and anger, but when she heard this sentence, she felt as if she was like the balloon punctured by a needle and she suddenly became weak. "Tang Zechen, are you done messing around?" She had overestimated herself. She could not cope with such endless fighting and entanglement. Her voice carried a strong nasal sound, and it even trembled. On the other end of the phone, hearing her voice, Tang Zechen immediately sat up straight from the office sofa. "Are you crying?" Chapter 22 Chapter 22 "Humph," Shu Tian sneered. "Juste to the point, you called me for what?" Tang Zechen didn''t answer it directly. "Where are you now?" "Did you let your mother bother my parents again, didn''t you?" Tang Zechen was stunned. "What did you say?" Shu Tian didn''t believe his words at all. "Tang Zechen, I had a secret crush on you since we were at school. I had been in pursuit of your love for two years and we just got married for a year. Even if you Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. don''t love me, this is our business. Why would you bother my family? Do you have to use such despicable way to make me regret loving you?" What they possessed in the past had already faded away, leaving nothing but regret. How ridiculous it was! The man she once loved became her enemy. Tang Zechen thought that no matter what Shu Tian said, he would not care, but he still felt a little brokenhearted when he heard she said " regret loving you". Did she really regret her past love for him? He thought Shu Tian was the one who loved him the most. No matter what he did, she would support him and forgive him without a word. He had always been confident of his control to her, but Shu Tian, who was supposed to obey him, said she felt regretful? He wouldn''t allow that to happen! Tang Zechen said angrily. " I don'' t care if you regret it or not. Once you marry me, don''t ever think about divorcing!" "What about Jiang Mengyao? This polygamy isn''t allowed in our society. I warn you that if I'' ll sue you for bigamy, which will directly send you to jail." "You..." Tang Zechen was about to say something when the phone was hung up. He stood up and kicked the sofa angrily. Thinking of her words, Tang Zechen directly called his mother, Liu Lifang. "Mom, did you bother Shu Tian''s parents again?" Liu Lifang admitted without hesitation. "Yes, it''s already inappropriate that she never came home. Although Mengyao is with you now, Shu Tian is still our daughter-inw. For our family''s reputation ..." "Mom!" Tang Zechen interrupted her. " I''ve told you that it''s none of your business!" In her mind, he had never argued with her about Shu Tian, so Liu Lifang was stunned by his words. "I'' m doing this for you!" "For me? Shu Tian wants to divorce me even more because of you. What do you say if we really get a divorce, huh?" After saying that, Tang Zechen hung up the phone and threw it on the tea table. She wanted a divorce? Somehow, the things that had been so far away in his life gradually became true, and the people he thought that would never leave him were getting away from him. This feeling made Tang Zechen feel strange and ufortable, as if everything was out of control in an instant. "Zechen, why are you standing here?" Jiang Mengyao just came in. Ever since Shu Tian left, she was with Tang Zechen all the time, regarding herself as his real wife. Tang Zechen was annoyed but had no ce to relieve his feeling, so when Jiang Mengyao came over, he grabbed her and pressed her against the sofa. He was so fierce that made her feel pain in the arms. Jiang Mengyao knew that he was in a bad mood, so she did not dare to say anything more but tried her best to obey him. ... Shu Tian picked up her good mood and left the neighborhood unit. The car that brought her there was still waiting by the roadside. She got into the car with watery eyes. It was still early, and Fu Qingtong also wanted toe out to y, so they had lunch together at a hotpot restaurant. When Shu Tian arrived at the ce, she let the driver leave and walked in all alone. She did not book a private room. In the lobby, she saw Fu Qingtong, who was sitting there in a bright and dazzling red knitted dress, from a distance. "You don''t have to work today?" Shu Tian walked over and said. Fu Qingtong had already reserved a table. She smiled at her. "I''m not in a good mood today, so I didn''t go to work." "Absenteeism, that''s not like you." Shu Tian remembered that although Fu Qingtong sometimes was careless, she knew when to be rigorous and responsible. She studiedw, so she did things ording to the rules and regtions. "My crappy department and my damn job? I''m telling you that even I absent for a month, no one will notice it." Fu Qingtong rolled her eyes. "I came toin to you today!" It was only then that Shu Tian realized that Fu Qingtong had never been as happy as she had said. Although she worked in her familypany and her job was rted tow, she couldn''t gain anything substantive and real. Now that her father had handed over thest work to others, she had no real power. In her words, she was just sitting around and waiting to die. "I almost forgot the basic legal provisions now." Fu Qingtongughed at herself. "So what''s your n now, continue to do it or change jobs?" "Of course I will change my job. This stupid job has made me a fool. I sit there like an idler every day. I don''t know how my colleagues would think about me." Just thinking about it made her angry. " Lately I''ll resign. After that I think I''ll be unemployed for a while to make ns for my future." "Alright, you don'' t have any pressure anyway. Take your time to think about it." Fu Qingtong raised her eyebrows and nced at her. "Why do I feel that you''re weird today?" Shu Tian was stunned with her chopsticks pausing in the air. Sheughed and shook her head. "You really know me. It seems that I can'' t hide anything from you." "Of course, I know you. I''m perspicacious and beautiful." Fu Qingtong smiled perfunctorily and then stopped. "What''s wrong? Did Tang Zechen and Jiang Mengyao bothered you or did boss li piss you off?" "I told my mother about the divorce thing." Fu Qingtong was shocked this time and gave a thumbs-up for her friend." You''re quite bold, aren''t you?" Shu Tian smiled bitterly. It''s not what she thought. She was forced to do that. "But that''s good too. Instead of worrying about being bullied by the Tang family, it''s better for you to say it. Your parents will find out it sooner orter." Seeing that Shu Tian was upset, Fu Qingtong filled the ss with beer and said. "Come on, let''s binge today. Let''s get drunk!" ... After they left the hotpot restaurant, it was already two in the afternoon. They were all drunk, staggering their steps and carrying each other. Shu Tian didn''t n to drink too much, but she couldn''t resist Fu Qingtong''s persuasion. Besides, she was indeed in a bad mood, so she really drank a lot. Fu Qingtong was obviously not allowed to drive, so was Shu Tian. There happened to be a ktv next to that hot pot restaurant. When Fu Qingtong saw it, she just rushed in directly and it was toote for Shu Tian to stop her. Hence, they went from hotpot restaurant to ktv. Fu Qingtong booked the whole night in there and bought two more boxes of beer and moved them into their room. Shu Tian drank two or three more bottles of wine, which made her clouded in mind. Under the influence of alcohol, the two of them were so close mentally. They were just hanging out in there till 8 pm when Li Han kept calling Shu Tian. She could not hear the ring in the noisy room. By the time she saw it, there were already 15 missed calls. Before she could return the call, Li Han called her again. Shu Tian picked up the phone and hupped before speaking. "Hello?" Li Han frowned when he heard her voice. "Did you drink?" Shu Tian woke up a little when she heard his sullen voice. Forgetting that they were on the phone, she gestured with her little finger. "Just a little." "Really?" Li Han sneered. "I don''t think so." Then he added. "Send me your address, I''m picking you up." Chapter 23 Chapter 23 Shu Tian obediently reported the address and then paused, "Ah, you''d better note. Maybe it''s not ..." Li Han was about toget angry, but then she slowly added, "I am with Tongtong. If I leave, what''s she going to do?" "Tongtong is male or female?" "Female." Li Han nced at the man in the passenger seat and said to the other end of the phone, "Wait for me right where you are. Don'' t run around." After hanging up the phone, Ji Chuanyi''s suspicious gaze was cast upon him, "What''s going on? Your tone seems to show you are in a good rtionship." Li fu thought that Shu Tian had drunk too much, and his entire body seemed to be surrounded by a frightening aura. His cold gaze swept over, "Curious? I''ll take you to meet him. ... Half an hourter, the car stopped at the entrance of a KTV. Li Han got out of the car and kept walking inside with his long legs moving swiftly. After finding the room number, Li Han pushed open the door of the private room. The smell of alcohol Original content from N?velDrama.Org. filled the room. The loud music crashed into her eardrum, almost causing him to have a headache. His quickly caught sight of the little woman who was half-lying on the sofa. He turned off the music, turned on the lights, and walked over to pull her up, "You are drunk?" Shu Tian''s body swayed when she was pulled by him. She fell over him and buried her face in his chest. Even though she couldn''t see the man''s face, Shu Tian could still detect the scent of pine on his body. "No, we haven''t finished yet ..." "..." Li Han''s face darkened. He looked at the bottles on the table, thinking she would continue to drink? Ji Chuanyi saw this scene when he entered the door. When he saw another woman with a microphone shouting"why the music stopped", he immediately understood why Li Han brought him here. "I'' ll leave it to you." After saying that, Li Han dragged the woman in his arms and walked towards the door. Unexpectedly, when she passed by Ji Chuanyi, Shu Tian suddenly pulled her hand out and grabbed Ji Chuanyi''s sleeve. "Do you know Tongtong?" Ji Chuanyi''s lips twitched as he looked at the young and beautiful face in front of him, which was flushed from drinking, "No." He looked at Li Han''s angry face and wanted to pull his sleeve back. Unexpectedly, Shu Tian did not let go so that he suddenly brought her into his arms and they bumped into each other. "Mmm!" Shu Tian snorted. Before she could react, the next second, the man behind her pulled her to his side, and said in a harsh tone, "Behave yourself!" Usually, Shu Tian would never dare to retorted Li Han. But today it was different. She had been drinking, and a drunkard feared nothing. Thus, Li Han watched as the little woman curled her lips. Even her eyes were so red with grievance, she did not forget to raise her head and re at him, "You'' re lecturing me!" Not willing to make things worse, Li Han raised his hand and pinched himself between his eyebrows, saying "No." "You are, and you'' re so aggressive!" The man exhaled heavily, his fake patience cracking open, "Yes, I am lecturing you." The two watched each other''s eyes, one angry and one anxious. The little woman''s wet eyes blinked, and two lines of tears streamed down. President Li, who had always been a powerful man in work, looked at the two traces of tears and became helpless against a person for the first time. Ji Chuanyi watched the show and shrugged, "You made her cry." "Shut up!" Li Han cursed in a low voice. He was about to reach out and pull her away, but she managed to dodge him. He didn''t want to mess around with her anymore, so he ignored her objection, and picked her up and then strode out of the house. On the other side, Fu Qingtong was even more drunk. Seeing that Shu Tian was being taken away, she staggered to her feet. "Ai ai ai ai ai ai, which bastard dares to take away my friend? Stop right there ..." Ji Chuanyi raised his hand to push the golden frame of his sses on his face and kicked the door close. Although he still had a polite and gentlemanly smile on his face, it looked intimidating. "You want to make a mess too?" ... When Shu Tian was carried into the car, she identally bumped her head against the roof of the car. With a thud, she felt a dull pain on her forehead. She reached out to push the man who had ced her in the front passenger seat. "It hurts!" Li Han rested his hands on both sides of her head with an unfriendly gaze. "You can still feel the pain?" Shu Tian rubbed his head and felt a little angry. "What are you doing?" "Do you know what time it is?" "I don'' t know. I want to sing." Shu Tian had every right to prove that a drunkard feared nothing. Her rebellious character was clearly revealed by the alcohol. Li Han had never noticed this trait of her before. Her big round eyes were full of resentment and stared at him feeling emboldened. Heughed in anger. "If you want to sing, go home and I will let you sing enough." After saying that, he mmed the door shut and walked around the car to get into the driver''s seat. After fastening his seat belt and starting the car, the woman beside him did not move at all. Li Han looked over and only saw a ck head. Shu Tian lowered her head, hwith er long hair covering her face and she felt down, "I don'' t have a home. I don'' t have a home anymore." Li Han ignored her. His hands had just touched the steering wheel when he saw from the corner of his eye that the woman''s frail shoulder suddenly trembled . His handsome eyebrows frowned and his gaze was turned on her once more, "Crying again?" Thinking of what Shu Changlei said today, Shu Tian felt as if she had been thrown into a liquid of grief. She was sealed in a jar, almost getting drowned in bitterness and sadness. Even the person closest to her thought so. Was getting divorced a really wrong decision? Shu Tian even began to doubt himself and was unable to shake the feeling. Seeing that her tears were falling down, Li Han felt an inexplicable headache at the same time. He had lived for thirty-two years and neverforted any woman. What was even more strange was that he couldn''t be indifferent to her tears. He reached out and lifted her chin with his hand. "Why are you crying?" "Because you all scolded me ..." "Who?" "You!" She red again. Li Han took a deep breath and showed two hundred percent patience. "Except for me." "Tang Zechen, Jiang Mengyao, and my parents ..." The more Shu Tian thought about it, the sadder she became. She looked at him with a pair of eyes that seemed to have been washed away by the rain. "Won''t you file awsuit for me? When can you win?" Li fu wanted to say that it wasn''t that easy, but when he saw her hopeful eyes, he changed his words, "Very soon." "Really?" "Okay." The man took a tissue to wipe the tears off her face. "Is that why you drank?" He wept her tears gently, and his words were no longer as tough as before. The dim lights on the roof of the car shone down andnded on the man''s handsome face. Shu Tian stared nkly at him. Perhaps it was because today was too tragic that a strange emotion suddenly arose in her heart. He treated her the worst, forced her to make a deal with him, and did to her whatever he wanted. However, at every juncture, he would always appear by her side, give her a ce to live, and give her a job that she wanted. Especially when ites to the divorce, if she didn''t know this man, she would probably have to suffer in the Tang family and watch Tang Zechen and Jiang Mengyao deeply in love with each other, and yet she could do nothing about it. Thinking carefully, she felt that he wasn'' t that bad, just a bit bad-tempered and arrogant. Sensing the little woman''s fixed gaze, the man slightly lowered his eyes, "I'' m asking you a question." Shu Tian faced the dark light above her head, her eyes still wet like a ripplingke. "Li Han, you are all I have now." He was the one who was supposed to be unfamiliar, but was now standing firmly behind her. Chapter 24 Chapter 24 It was nearly ten o''clock when Li Han brought her back to Imperial Garden. Shu Tian was sleeping in the car. He was afraid that she would wake up then make a scene. So he directly carried her out of the car. As soon as her body touched thefortable bed, this little woman sighed in satisfaction. She wanted to continue sleeping. But his hands were on her body. She did not even open her eyes and pushed him. "Don''t..." "Don''t what? You think I''m going to fuck you? !" Li Han lost his patience and tore off her dress without even bothering to unbutton it. Without any clothes, this woman''s fair skin was dazzling. The blood that was repressed in his body was burning. Li Han did not look at her at all and directly dragged her to stand under the shower head. The warm water ran down from above her head. Shu Tian shuddered and screamed without any sleepiness. "Ah! What are you doing? Let go of me! Let go!" Li Han felt a headache from her shouting and pped her pretty little butt. "Shut up! You didn''t moan so hard on the bed. But now you know how to scream?" Shu Tian couldn''t listen to him and couldn''t even stand on her own. "You are an old rascal!" "..." He could tolerate the word "rascal". After all, he did not have much self-control in front of her. But "old"? How could he be old? At this moment, Shu Tian was sober and exined it before he asked. "You''re already 32 years old, while I''m only 24 years old. You robs the cradle. Lucky you..." Li Han was stunned and thenughed. He took the shower head off and showered her without any gentleness. He pulled the bathrobe and wrapped her in it. No more shower. She felt ufortable and he was irritated. ... The next morning, Shu Tian woke up from a hangover with a splitting headache. She looked at the rm clock at the bedside. It was nine fifty, almost ten o''clock. Slept tillte in the morning. How rotten. Shu Tian rubbed her face with her hand. Before she could fully wake up, her phone vibrated violently at the bedside. She grabbed the phone and found that it was Fu Qingtong. She answered the call in azy tone. "Hello?" "Shu Tian! ! Shu Tian! ! ! !" A shrill scream came from the microphone. Shu Tian could not help but take the phone away and wait for the other party to calm down before taking it closer again. "What''s wrong with you?" "Ah! I''ll kill that son of a bitch!" Shu Tian''s eyes twitched. "Which bastard?" "Ji Chuanyi!" "Ji Chuanyi?" "He took me awayst night!" Hearing this, Shu Tian''s heart tightened. "What did he do to you?" "He..." Fu Qingtong paused for a moment and said with embarrassment. "He took me to the hotel and took off my clothes..." Shu Tian sat up immediately from the bed. "Ah?" "Then... Did he..." Fu Qingtong cursed fiercely. "No, he tied both my hands and feet to the bed." "..." Shu Tian was shocked. "Tied... You?" "He seems kind and gentle. But in fact, he''s just an impotent old man! I thought that Ji Chuanyi was really awesome. Yuck. I was frivolous and blind!" Shu Tian still couldn''t keep up. "Ji Chuanyi? You know him?" "You don''t know? The Han Yi Law Office was founded by Li Han and Ji Chuanyi. Li Han probably didn''t want to care for mest night and left me to Ji Chuanyi." It was a disgrace that Fu Qingtong refused to say anything more. "Did your Boss Li abuse youst night?" Shu Tian was a bit disconnected fromst night''s events and only remembered a few fragments. "I think... No." "That''s good." Fu Qingtong paused. "Tian, I think Li Han treats you quite well. He came to find you in the middle of the night. He cares for you." Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat. "Stop talking nonsense." The two chatted for a while longer. After hanging up the phone, Shu Tiany back to the bed. The scenes ofst night shed through her mind, including what she had said in the car. Shu Tian took the pillow and put it on her face. The temperature on her cheeks was rising rapidly. She must have been crazy to say that to Li Han. However, that monster Li Han didn''t force herst night. There was still a trace of humanity in him. Shu Tian thought that she wouldn''t die too tragically tonight. She wanted to make some preparations in the afternoon and cook for Li Han to please him in the evening. However, she received a call from the Han Yi at noon and asked her toe over. It was rted to thewsuit. When Shu Tian heard that it was serious business, she didn''t dare to neglect and took a taxi directly. Li Han was in charge of her case. Of course, they had to meet each other. However, it was much more formal this time. They met in the VIP reception room of the Han Yi. Besides him, there was also Lawyer Wu, whom Fu Qingtong had introduced earlier. As soon as she pushed the door open and entered, she met the man''s cold gaze. Shu Tian gasped and sat on the chair opposite them, pretending to be calm. "Miss Shu, I ask you toe over today for I want to discuss with you about some matters about the case that require your cooperation." Lawyer Wu pushed a cowhide file bag from the desk. Shu Tian opened it and the color of her face gradually faded. The men and women in the photos were intertwined in the ces where she was most familiar with, including the living room, the kitchen, and even the bedroom. Looking at the unbearable action in the photos, Shu Tian felt nauseous and put them back into the file bag. Her fingertips trembled slightly. "Why do you have these photos?" Lawyer Wu smiled. "Why our Han Yi''s winning rate is so high? Of course, we have our means. But don''t worry. These are real." Shu Tian forced a smile, but it was a sad one. "I know." She didn''t believe that it was fake. When Li Han saw the woman''s pale face, the temperature in his eyes gradually became lower. "It''s still not toote to regret the appeal." Shu Tian looked at him. "What?" "Do you still have nostalgia?" She was shocked and understood what he meant. She immediately restrained her expression. "No, I''m Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. just angry." After that, Li Han stopped looking at her and handed over a stack of forms. "This is Tang Zechen''s Shu Tian didn''t understand. "What do you need me to do?" "Because Miss Shu''s request in this case is to obtain more property. We hope you can cooperate with us and figure out your husband''s total assets." Lawyer Wu exined slowly. Shu Tian frowned and remembered how Tang Zechen had kept secrets from her after marriage. "I don''t have ess to the assets. He has been hiding it from me ever since we got married." Lawyer Wu nodded and raised his sses. "Actually, I suggest that Miss Shu can stay at home for the time being." Shu Tian was stunned. "But ..." "I understand. But for the sake of thewsuit, I hope you can endure it. We will also protect your legal rights and interests from infringement." "..." Shu Tian''s hand that was resting on the table tightened and she subconsciously looked at Li Han. That man was also looking at her and there was no emotion in his calm eyes. Chapter 25 Chapter 25 Was that what he means? Without feeling empty, Shu Tianxin felt as if someone was pushing her forward. She was aware of the fact that Li Han was very possessive towards her, but now was he willing to let here back to Tang Zeche? It overturned Shu Tian''s imagination, making her feel that she might think too much again. Looking at the little woman sitting opposite him, Li Han could notice any of her subtle expressions- amazement, fluster. He was even able to sense the loss and confusion on her face. This reaction was much better than he had initially thought. At least it was because of him, not Tang Zechen. Shu Tian seemed a little absent-minded during the rest of the conversation. She needed to consider whether she should go back to Manshan Vi. After that, Lawyer Wu left first. Li Han was still sitting in his seat, and so was Shu Tian. One was calm and experienced, while the other lowered her head, at a loss. There was a table between the two of them, but the atmosphere became subtle. "Give you a chance toe back your ex-husband. Are you unhappy?" The man''s calm voice came from above. Shu Tian suddenly raised her head and frowned. "What do you mean?" Li Fu chuckled and his chest trembled slightly, making a deep and melodious sound. Seeing that he was smiling, Shu Tian was angry, but at the same time, there was an undetectable sense of grievance. She had the feeling that her divorce was a joke in his eyes. She got upset as she thought of that. Carrying her purse, she was about to leave, but she was taken back by a force. At the corner of the wall beside the door, the man wrapped his arms around her slender waist. His palm kept moving and rubbing on her waist, causing a shiver. Shu Tian didn''t feel like talking to him, so she remained silent and red at him. Li Han watched as her pale face slowly turned red under his teasing, and her clear and beautiful eyes were getting misty... Shu Tian could not help but hold onto hisrge palm when the man''s hand tore open her underwear. "Li Han, we''re in reception room." "The corner is a blind area for surveince," responded the man. "..." Shu Tian took a deep breath. "No, we can''t do it." Li Han didn''t care about too much. She was a natural beauty. He could no longer hold it even if he did nothing, just stared at her. He pressed her against the wall. "Don''t make a sound," he said. Shu Tian was going to freak out, pushing him. "Li Han, stop being crazy!" "Yes, I''m crazy." The man held her hand and made her feel it. "Why are you dressing like that to seduce me?" Shu Tian took a look at her dress. It was simple and proper. Apart from the low neckline, there was nothing wrong with it. She could not help but curse, "You''re disgusting!" "It''s only for you." With that, he went into her body regardless of her resistance. Shu Tian let out a muffled groan. She clenched her teeth in fear that she would make a shameful sound. The wall in front of her hurt her a little. She twisted her body ufortably, and an arm behind her blocked between her body and the wall. Look, he was such a man to break her down with little details. ... As they finished, Shu Tian took out a tissue from her bag to clean herself up. The meeting room was filled with an indescribable smell. Both of them were aware of that. She was so embarrassed and angry that she threw a ball of tissue over him. "Beast!" she cursed. Li Han put on his tie again and nced at her from the corner of his eye. "Who asked for one more time just now?" "..." Shu Tian blushed and looked away, not in a mood to see him. "I''m leaving," said Shu Tian. N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner. "Shu Tian," he called her by her full name. Shu Tian stopped but she did not turn back. The man''s tone paused. "Think about what Lawyer Wu said." Think about what? Back to Tang Zechen? Shu Tian was once again irritated. She gritted her teeth and bit her lower lip, then released it again. She turned around, standing half an arm away from him. "Li Han, do you think I could be with anyone? Yes, I am your mistress, and I am not proud of myself. I don''t deserve your respect, but I have never underestimated myself. You ... Are my first man. I don'' t care how you regard me, but I am not a pushover!" As she finished, the man''s expression was moreplicated. He raised his hand to caress her delicate cheeks. "So, you were saying that you''re a mistress, but you only want to do it with me?" Shu Tian choked. She was lost for words on how to refute. It seemed... That was indeed the case. But that wasn''t her point at all! Seeing that she was being questioned, Li Fu raised his thin lips, curving into a wicked smile. "Shu Tian, I didn'' t treat you as a ball, and I won''t kick you to anyone else. I let youe back to Tang Zechen for evidence, not to get you two back together." As he spoke, he took out a silver snake bone chain from his pocket, bending his long legs and squatting in front of her. Shu Tian only felt a chill on her left ankle. That chain had already been put on her neck. "This is a tracker. If you dare to do it with someone else, I will kill the adulterer first and break your legs." ... It turned out that Li Han''s intimidation was useful. Shu Tian eventually agreed him. Meanwhile, she officially joined the Han Yiw office. The series of events made Shu Tian feel that he had nned this for a long time. She had just returned to Manshan Vi, and there was another way to see Li Han every day. Tang Zechen didn''t know until his aunt informed him. He was so surprised that he refused Jiang Mengyao''s dinner invitation and drove back home directly. Shu Tian was cleaning the second bedroom next to the master bedroom with her aunt. The moment she saw him, she forced herself to be calm. "You''re back," she said to him. A sh of surprise shed across Tang Zechen''s eyes. He was trying to pull her into his arms, but Shu Tian dodged him. "Get your hands off me. I haven''t forgiven you yet." Tang Zechen did not dare to make a scene at this moment. He was afraid that she would leave in a fit of anger, but he still looked condescending. "Have you figured it out?" It wasn''t an apology, nor an exnation. Was that his first words? Shu Tian resisted the urge to hit his head. "Yes," she answered. Tang Zechen nodded in satisfaction and said, "Since you''reing back on your initiative, I''ll let you off this time. Shu Tian, there''s not a second chance, do you understand?" Shu Tian smiled coldly and did not say anything. "Why do you tidy up here?" "I''ll stay here." "Here?" Tang Zechen frowned and walked around the room in frustration. He called the servant out before saying, "You and I are husband and wife. Do we need to sleep in separate beds?" Previously, when he didn''te home, Shu Tian had never made such a request. Tang Zechen was surprised. It was as if the woman in front of him was no longer the submissive Shu Tian that she used to be. And he preferred women who knew how to reject others. The more difficult for him to conquer, the more he was eagered to. Seeing his expression, Shu Tian reached out to smooth the creases on the sheet. "I''m a neat freak. I can''t get used to sleep in someone else''s bed." It was clearly who was she referring to? Tang Zechen was still immersed in the excitement from earlier. Upon hearing her words, he immediately widened his eyes. "Shu Tian, don''t push your luck!" he yelled. "It''s alright. You can go out now. I'' m tired." Shu Tian didn''t even want to take a look at him. Sharing a space with him made every cell in her body extremely ufortable. Tang Zechen mmed the door and left. She heaved a sigh of relief and looked down at the chain on her feet. "Hold it for a while," she said to herself. Chapter 26 Chapter 26 The next morning, Shu Tian got up early. Today was her first day at work, so she couldn''t bete. After washing up, she went downstairs but saw an unexpected guest. Obviously, Jiang Mengyao was also surprised at Shu Tian''s presence. The smile on her face froze, "Why, why are you here?" Shu Tian behaved as usual after stunned for a blink. Like hearing a joke, she said, "This is my home. It should be I who ask you this, right?" "Aren''t you noting back?" Shu Tian sneered, "Is whether Ie back or not any of your business?" Jiang Mengyao had no fight-back on Shu Tian''s aggressive words. She could only stare at Shu Tian angrily. Tang Zechen happened toe down from downstairs at the moment. He was also stunned to see the two of them standing face to face. Then he stepped towards Jiang Mengyao, "Why are you here?" "Ie here to bring you soup..." Shu Tian hadn''t even bothered to see them flirting with each other. After going through all that, she would not feel heartbroken anymore for their intimate action. Tang Zechen had been just a miserable past for her. Shu Tian opened the fridge and took out bread slices and daubed jam on it. She had it to fulfill her stomach. Tang Zechen looked at her without saying anything but asked, "What do you get up so early for?" "For job." "Job?" Tang Zechen raised his voice, "When did you find a job?" "Recently." Hearing his words, Shu Tian didn''t even have an appetite. She only took a sip of water, then picked up her bag, "Take your time." Out the door of the vi, Shu Tian rxed. Thinking about three of them were in the same room just now, she felt amusing. If witnessing it, the one who knew nothing about their story would consider them as the husband and his wife and concubine of ancient times. After adjusting her mood, she transferred the subway line twice to get to the Hanyi Law Office. On the first day of work, the neer''s affairs were all being trained and learning. The training included the introduction of the founders. Li Han was the first to be introduced. This was the first time Shu Tian had known this man through formal channels as well. He entered the Law Faculty of Cambridge University at the age of 22. In the two years returning home, he won numerouswsuits and set up Hanyi Law Office. He was re-employed as a visiting professor of Cambridge University and chief legal adviser of Fortune 500panies. The gold-iid background was beyond the reach of ordinary people. To her surprise, Li Han was not born in a rich family but had suffered a lot to have today''s achievements. After the whole morning of training, Shu Tian was assigned to the Consulting Department, mainly to receive people who needed legal aid. As soon as she entered, she was assigned a pile of information. She worked overtime in the office to cote the data and managed to hand it in, having no time for lunch. But she still made a slip. "The year of this suit is obviously wrong. You even make the time of both cases wrong. What have you done?" Director Liu Wei criticized her without mercy. Shu Tian was savagely scolded but kept apologizing. At this moment, the office suddenly quieted down. Everyone stood up from their seats and shouted respectfully- "Boss Li." "Good noon, Boss Li." Shu Tian''s heart tightened. She was nervous and knew who wasing without looking up. The familiar rosin fragrance, and the overwhelming aura... "Boss Li, you''re here." Liu Wei simply changed her attitude. "Yes." The man''s voice was cold. His eyes swept across the office and finally stopped on Shu Tian, seemingly by ident. Sensing this, Liu Wei immediately raised her hand and patted Shu Tian on the shoulder affectionately.,"Our new employee, Shu Tian." Shu Tian greeted with courage, "Boss Li." Why did hee just when she was scolded... Seeing that she was lowering her head, Li Han slightly raised his brows. As if he was facing a stranger, he didn''t even respond and quickly turned around to leave. "What''s wrong with you? Why don''t you greet when bosse over?" Liu Wei threw the document to her. "Recote it!" The whole afternoon, Shu Tian had not left her seat. When it was time to get off work, her colleagues leave one by one, but she could only sit in her seat and look up the information. Only eating a mouthful of bread all day long, Shu Tian was so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back. But Liu Wei needed these documents tomorrow, so she had to finish them today. After graduation, she got married right away and lived a leisurely life for more than a year. She was actually a little unustomed to the high-intense working pace. "Buzzing-" The phone on the desk kept vibrating. Shu Tian took it and saw that it was from Li Han. She picked it up with tiredness in her voice. "Hello?" "Where are you?" Shu Tian looked around. "In the office." "Come up." The man''s voice was cold. Shu Tian grimaced, "I haven''t finished my work yet..." "Bring it up." "But..." "Beep beep beep." Before she could finish speaking, the other party had already hung up the phone quickly. Shu Tian cursed in her heart. No matter how reluctant she was, she could only pack her things and take the elevator to the CEO''s office on the second floor. Fortunately, at this time, the secretary was off work, and only Zhang Bikun was there. Shu Tian knew that Zhang Bikun probably understood her rtionship with Li Han. His presence was somehow better than others. In the spacious and bright office, the man sat in a leather chair. There was a great stack of contracts and documents on the neat table. Shu Tian closed the door with her backhand and looked over unconsciously. The man was only wearing a light blue shirt. His tie was thrown somewhere. A few buttons on his shirt were untied and his Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. cuffs were rolled to the bend of his arms, revealing his strong and beautiful arms. This man was born to attract attention. "Come over when you''ve seen enough." Suddenly, a cold voice pierced through the air and reached her ear. Shu Tian came back to her senses and realized that she was obsessed with him. Her ears were flushed as she walked uneasily to the desk and stood still, "Ahem, I still have work to do. Why did you ask me toe up?" To her surprise, this person mocked without raising his head, "Come in without even saying hello. Who taught you to behave that way at the workce?" "..." Shu Tian took a deep breath and responded softly," Boss Li, what can I do for you? "My shoulder hurts." "..." Shu Tian almost stormed out. She looked at the unfinished documents in her hand with her face darkening. "Li Han, I still have work to do. It is needed tomorrow." Shu Tian was already so tired that she almost about to be overwhelmed. Coupled with being scolded and not eating enough today, her mental state was on the verge of copse. At this moment, there was a hint of coquetry in her words that she did not even realize. She was really exhausted. Hearing this, the man finally looked up at her. A few secondster, he lowered his head again. His slender fingers held the exquisite pen, quickly signed his name, closed the document. He reached out to her, "Show me." Shu Tian looked at the documents in her hand and handed them over hesitantly. Li Han took it and nced at it briefly. He immediately realized that it was a chore Liu Wei found for her, which did not need any professional skills. She could only force herself to slowly look through it and search the information, but it was a little too much. Li Han handed the documents back to her and pointed to the sofa in the middle of the office. "Go there." Chapter 27 Chapter 27 "But I need to useputer." "There''s aptop." Li Han raised his eyebrows and motioned her to stop talking and go quickly with eyes. Shu Tian had no choice but to sit on the sofa to continue working. Time slowly passed from 7:30 to 8:30. Another hour passed, Shu Tian was so tired that she could hardly move her neck. She secretly nced at the man who was still reading the document. She closed the document and got a suitable position to sleep for a while. The moment she closed her eyes, her brain went nk instantly. And Shu Tian fell asleep quickly. On the other side, Li Han was still focused on reading the documents until he heard a woman''s slight snoringing from not far away. Looking up to see the time, it was almost nine o''clock. He put down thest document in his hand that needed to be approved and walked towards the little woman curled up on the sofa. The bright light above fell on her face and the light was not soft but even a little dazzling, but the woman in deep sleep seemed unaffected. Her long eyshes cast a shadow, and her skin was almost bright, reflecting the light. Her beautiful lips were unconsciously half-open and her breath was a little heavy, looking tired. Li Han raised his hand to touch her soft lips, but Shu Tian did not wake up even he pressed them with more strength. She was the first person who dared to sleep under the CEO''s nose. The man curled his lips slightly. It was OK, just let her sleep for a while. ... When Shu Tian woke up again, it was almost ten o''clock. She was shocked and she freaked out when she saw the documents on the table. "I''m finished. I haven''t sorted them out yet." Li Han pulled her over directly. "I will send you back." "I can''t go back now. I''ll prepare the documents which will be used tomorrow." As she spoke, she walked out. The man frowned slightly and stepped to block her way with his long legs, emphasized, "Shu Tian." Every time he called her full name, Shu Tian would always be frightened. Especially with his unhappy expression, she was even more uncertain. Between being criticized by the director and being tortured by Li Han, Shu Tian chose the former decisively. If she couldn''t finish it, she would be scolded. If she resisted Li Han, she might suffer even worse. Moreover, from eight o''clock until now, Tang Zechen had caller or texted her more than 20 times. Just went back. Shu Tian left the Hanyi Law Office with Li Han after carrying her bag. After getting in the car, she continued sleeping instantly. Li Han did not interrupt her. It was quiet in the car. asionally, the shadow outside the window shed past, there was some unusual feeling. Half an hourter, the car stopped on the side road of the Manshan Vi gate. Li Han woke up the little woman in the passenger seat. Shu Tian opened her eyes in a daze and looked out the window to find that she was already home. She reached out to unbuckle her seat belt, opened the door, got out of the car, and she waved to the man through the crack of the window. "Please be careful on the road. I''m going in." looking at her delicate body and the brightly lit vi behind her, Li Han suddenly felt a little ufortable, as if his pet was going to be handed to someone else. The man looked away, afraid that he would take back his decision if he took another look. "Go." In less than two minutes, the little woman beside the car waspletely out of sight. Except for the N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner. light of the streetmps, there was only endless darkness. The headlights of the car were on, and the dust could be vaguely seen floating in the air. Li Han looked down at the steering wheel, reached out for his cigarette case to lit a cigarette that slowly burned at the end of his fingertips. The white smoke went out when the window opened. He was not in a hurry to deal with Shu Tian''s divorce case, but tonight he decided to speed up the pace. He felt unhappy to see his woman go back to someone else''s house. Shu Tian, on the other hand, was far more influential than he had imagined. He had nned to call her to the office tonight, but he couldn''t bear to wake her up when he saw that she was exhausted and fell asleep. Li Hanughed at himself, put out the cigarette butt, and threw it out. He did not know when he began to cherish a woman. ... As soon as Shu Tian entered the door, she saw a man and a woman sitting on the sofa, they were Tang Zechen and Liu Lifang. Liu Lifang was still here at this time, and Shu Tian''s intuition didn''t think it was a good phenomenon. Hearing the sound opening the door, they turned around in session. Tang Zechen was still sitting motionless, but Liu Lifang came over for the first time, but what she said made people ufortable, "Why did you get off work sote?" This sentence implied more questioning than caring. Shu Tian lowered her head to change her shoes and said calmly, "Work overtime." "I haven''t seen you make a lot of money since you''re so busy with your work. A woman always shows up outside. Who knows if she''s going to work or doing something else?" Tang Zechen sneered at her. "Whose Bentayaga outside just now?" Shu Tian''s heart did a flip. She didn''t expect Tang Zechen to see Li Han send her back. Panic shed through her eyes. She lowered her head to hide her emotions and said perfunctorily, "A client." "The client sent you home?" Tang Zechen stood up and pointed at Shu Tian, "You don''t sleep in the same room with me, but you''re willing to apany the client in the middle of the night? Shu Tian, do you think I''m a fool?" No matter how guilty Shu Tian was, he was also angered by his attitude. "Tang Zechen, how dare you say that to me?" When Liu Lifang saw this, she immediately stepped forward to protect her son, "Shu Tian, it''s not right for you to say that. How can you say that? Zechen is your husband. It''s toote for you to go home at this time. Besides, how could the husband and wife sleep in separate rooms?" "Well," Shu Tian sneered. No wonder Liu Lifang came. She was here to talk about this on purpose, wasn''t she? Shu Tian knew how much Liu Lifang wanted to have a grandson, but Tang Zechen didn''t sleep with her in the past, and now Liu Lifang took it hard. What did they think she Shu Tian was? Was she on call at any hour? Shu tian was expressionless, "I won''t have anything to do with him until he breaks up with Jiang Mengyao." After a year of marriage, she thought that love could offset all this. Now that their rtionship was broken, she didn''t want to force herself. Liu Lifang knew she was wrong and did not want to provoke Shu Tian. After all, if they really got divorced, there may be involved in financial interests. She knew that if you were patient in one moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow. Seeing Shu Tian go upstairs, Tang Zechen kicked the sofa hard. Liu Lifang said in a low voice, "Don''t worry. Since Shu Tian doesn''t want to have a baby for the Tang family, it means that she has other ns. You should walk with two legs. You should deal with Mengyao. I won''t interfere in it." Tang Zechen was not in a good mood after hearing this. He looked at the second floor with a grim gaze. Sooner orter, he would make Shu Tian kneel to beg him. Chapter 28 Chapter 28 The next morning, Shu Tian missed the early subway on her way to thepany because she failed to cram into thepartment. She arrived at thepany at the exact attendance time and if she arrived one minuteter, she would bete for work. Along the way, she had been thinking about those documents. She had imagined countless times the scene of Liu Wei giving her a good scolding, and done mental preparations countless times, but it didn''t ur to her that not only did she not get scolded, but she actually got through it safely. Shu Tian thought she was lucky, but soon she realized that things were not so simple as she thought. In thepany''s tea room, Shu Tian was getting coffee when she suddenly heard the deliberately lowered voice from her colleagues of the same group next door. "Do you know Shu Tian, the neer to our group?" "I do. I heard she''s a top student." "Today..." At this point, one of them said in a lower voice, "At the meeting, Director Liu specifically warned us and mentioned something about backing. Do you think it''s her?" "I guess so. Liu Wei put it so obviously." "But I think that Shu Tian is indeed good-looking, like a star. She looks so delicate and men like that type. Maybe she has that kind of rtionship with some senior executive in thepany. Let''s not offend her." "Exactly. But it''s unfortunate for us to have such a colleague around. I don''t think we''ll have any luck in the future. She''ll take it all by herself." "Yes..." The two of them got the water and left, and their voices became more and more distant. Shu Tian tightened her grip on the coffee cup unconsciously. When she was in a daze, it wasn''t until the coffee spilled over that she realized it. The back of her hand was scalded and turned red. She turned off the machine at once. She couldn''t care about the scald on the back of her hand, and her mind was in a mess. Liu Wei had asked her colleagues in the same group to stay after the morning meeting. So this was what it had been about? Shu Tian frowned. No wonder Liu Wei didn''t say a word about those documents. Now that she thought about it, the way Liu Wei looked at her was really meaningful. Had Li Han given Liu Wei a previous notice? Thinking of this, Shu Tian got even more flustered. She did not intend to receive preferential treatment, nor did she want her colleagues to know about her rtionship with Li Han. Apart from her own sake, it was not a good thing for Li Han either. Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Shu Tian walked to the staircase and called Li Han. It was Zhang Bikun who answered the phone, "I''m sorry, Miss Shu. Boss Li is in a meeting. If there''s anything, I can help youmunicate it to him." "It''s okay. Please tell him when he''s done. I want to see him." Shu Tian hung up, took the cup and walked back to the office. She didn''t know whether it was because she knew what everyone was thinking, she felt that the way they looked at her was somewhat unfriendly. It turned out that what Shu Tian thought was right. Yesterday, the colleagues were willing to help her, but today, they had no idea about how to solve her problems. Some people even ignored her. Shu Tian knew that she was "isted". "Shu Tian, the head of this form is wrong." Zhang Rui''er, who was at the next desk, pointed at her Shu Tian thanked her appreciatively, "Thank you. I don''t know how to fill in here." Zhang Rui''er waved her hand and didn''t care about it, "It''s okay. I''ll send you a temteter. You may refer to it." After a while, it was lunch time. Shu Tian almost forgot that she had looked for Li Han. It was then that she got a phone call from him, "Are you looking for me?" Shu Tian walked to the corner and said, "Yes, I want to ask you something." "Come up and ask me." "No, I''m going to have lunch with my colleague. I''ll ask you after lunch." Shu Tian lowered her voice, "See you in the underground parking lot." Before Li Han could agree, this little woman had already hung up the phone in a hurry. It was the first time that someone hung up the phone before Boss Li did. His face darkened. Zhang Bikun reminded him in a trembling voice, "Boss Li, would you like to order two portions of lunch or... one?" Li Han nced at him coldly, "Whenever have I ordered two?" Zhang Bikun''s mouth twitched, "You were obviously..." "What?" That one word spat out by the man was suffocating. "Nothing. It was I who misheard you. I misheard you..." "Get out." "Yes!" On the other hand, Shu Tian and Zhang Rui''er were having lunch in thepany canteen. The environment of the Hanyi Law Office canteen was very good, which could beparable to the cafeteria of a luxury hotel. The dishes were also excellent, including both Chinese and Western food, and even Sichuan dishes were provided. Zhang Rui''er rmended several dishes to her. Shu Tian was quite satisfied with them. She also felt rxed with the help of the delicious food. "Shu Tian, people in the office were talking about you. Do you know that?" Zhang Rui''er was a careless girl and didn''t beat around the bush. Shu Tian was stunned and then nodded, "Yes." "Hey, did you offend Liu Wei? It''s obvious that she is giving you a hard time." Since Zhang Rui''er could feel it, how could Shu Tian not have noticed it? "I can do nothing about it. She''s my leader." Moreover, she was not that innocent in this. Although Li Han handled the situation in an official manner, they had that kind of rtionship after all. "Don''t take it too seriously. Our department is so big and it includes not only this group. You have to deal with different bosses in the future. Just avoid Liu Wei. She''s not simple." Zhang Rui''er stopped at where it should. Shu Tian smiled from the heart, "Well, thank you, Rui." After lunch, Shu Tian went downstairs alone on the excuse of buying something. The elevator went straight to the second floor underground. Shu Tian found that Bentley Bentayga and got into it in a sh. In the back seat of the car, the man had already been waiting. Seeing that she got in, he pressed the central lock button immediately. With a click, Shu Tian got nervous. In a moment of silence, Li Han looked at her, "Didn''t you want to ask me something." Shu Tian then remembered and calmed down, "Did you talk to our director about the documents yesterday?" Li Han''s face remained unchanged, "No." He didn''t have to remember someone at the rank of directors. Just as Shu Tian was about to heave a sigh of relief, she heard him saying, "It was Zhang Bikun who informed her." "..." He had really gone for her? Shu Tian looked anxious, "How could you let Secretary Zhang tell her that? Isn''t this making it clear that I have a backing in thepany..." "Someone told you about it?" Shu Tian said gloomily, "No." Now, everyone was busy avoiding her. They were waiting for opportunities to do some backstabbing. No one woulde up and tell her about this. Li Han could not understand why she got unhappy, so he simply ignored that. He reached out and pulled her over to him. His thin lips fell on her milk-scented neck. Shu Tian was absent-minded and tilted her head to dodge him, "Don''t do this. Someone will find out..." "Be good and no one will find out nothing." As he spoke, he reached out to tug at her shirt. Shu Tian grabbed those disobedient hands and breathed short, "Li Han, could you keep a low profile in thepany?" The man paused slightly, his deep eyes filled with strong desire, "It''s lunch break time." "But in this case, I can''t work well this afternoon!" "That''s your problem." Shu Tian kept resisting and wouldn''t be cooperative. Li Han lost all his patience, pulled off his tie and tied her hands behind her back... Chapter 29 Chapter 29 After having sex with him, Shu Tian was so tired that she copsed in the chair and couldn''t stand up straight. She looked at the time and there were twenty minutes left before work. She almost wanted to p herself with regret. It was only because she was crazy that she wanted to reason with Li Han. On the other hand, the man on the side was wearing a tie in a refreshing manner. He was not affected at all. Before getting out of the car, Shu Tian was cursing him in her heart. She didn''t know if he had been stung by conscience or not, but Li Han actually said, "From now on, I won''t interfere in your work." Shu Tian stopped pulling the car door and looked back doubtfully. "Really?" The man sneered. "Do you think I care about you?" Shu Tian muttered, "I think you care about me a lot." "What?" Shu Tian smiled faintly. "I said thank you for your kindness. I won''t let you go even if I be a ghost." "Even if you are a ghost, I can make you happy..." Before she could finish her sentence, a soft touch suddenly appeared on her lips. Shu Tian blushed and raised her hand to cover his thin lips. She red at him. "Stop talking!" Li Han curled his lips and pulled her hand away. "Let''s go." Shu Tian got out of the car and rushed into the elevator. Before Li Han could catch up, she hurriedly N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner. closed the elevator door. Li han stood there, thinking about her blushing face. The exhaustion of the morning had mostly dissipated. It was rare for him to be so rxed. Now that she was so shy, what could she do in the future? ... When Shu Tian entered the office, it was only ten minutes before work time. She didn''t forget to bring Zhang Rui''er a drink. "Thank you." "It''s okay." Shu Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief when she sat down. After this morning''s incident, although Liu Wei was dissatisfied with her, Shu Tian was no longer asked to sort out the materials. Instead, awyer named Ye Junting, one of the seniorwyers of the Hanyi Law Office, was assigned to guide her. He had dealt with countless cases and was good at dealing with business disputes. Wu Mengfan, the neer at the same time, was also guided by him. In the conference room, Ye Junting was dressed in a ck suit and tie neatly. His 1.8-meter tall figure and his intellectual temperament made his handsome face a little sharper. Wu Mengfan was deeply attracted by him and her lips curled up uncontrobly. She was d that she could be guided by such awyer. "Let me introduce myself briefly. Ye Junting, 28 years old, graduated from Toronto University''s Law School. You can call me Lawyer Ye, or call me by my name directly. Whatever you want." The man''s clear voice came. Wu Mengfan smiled sweeter. "Lawyer Ye." "Lawyer Ye." Shu Tian also obediently called him, "What a coincidence! We are alumni." "Yes." Obviously, Ye Junting also had a brief understanding of the basic information of the two neers. He nced slightly at this junior and said, "But friendship doesn''t work in thispany. Everything should be done fairly. I don''t care how you were admitted. You''re the same to me as long as you''re under my guidance. If you want to stay here, you have to bepetent for the job. Otherwise, you have to find another job. Understand?" He was obviously saying these words to Shu Tian. He was so sharp the first time they met. Liu Wei must have told something to Ye Junting. Shu Tian was not surprised. "Lawyer Ye, don''t worry. If I can''t do it, I''ll quit." She acted a little rashly when she said it. Ye Junting was slightly stunned and then smiled. "Very well, I appreciate your courage." Hearing this, Wu Mengfan couldn''t help but look at Shu Tian. There was not much kindness in her eyes, but more judgment. Ye Junting left a lot of files for the two of them to learn and read when they were free. Then Shu Tian got her first legal case in her life¡ª¡ªA personal injury dispute between a coal miningpany and an employee. But Wu Mengfan received a love dispute case. Although these were not big cases, fundamentally, Shu Tian''s case was more difficult. Ye Junting was also involved in dealing with this dispute. "Shu Tian,e to me whenever you have a problem. You have to be present at the meeting when it was about the case, understand?" Ye Junting was brief and to the point. Shu Tian nodded. "Yes." "Okay, that''s it for today." Seeing that Ye Junting was about to leave, Wu Mengfan stood up anxiously. "Lawyer Ye, what about me?" "You?" Ye Junting nced at her as he tidied up the things in his hands. "Who''s in charge of the case? Don''t you know?" Wu Mengfan choked and replied weakly, "... I know." Ye Junting ignored her and walked out of the conference room. Shu Tian lowered her head to sort out the files. Looking at the thick files, just as she was worried about when she could finish reading them, she heard Wu Mengfan''s mocking voice. "Shu Tian, you''re really good. You can be guided by Lawyer Ye as soon as you came. He even taught you the case himself." Shu Tian clearly saw the disdain in her eyes and did not intend to argue with her. She replied lightly, "Thank you." After that, she took the things and walked out without looking back. Wu Mengfan did not expect her to react like this and shook her hand angrily. "What the hell!" ... After Shu Tian returned to the office, Zhang Rui''er looked at her from behind the partition and said, "Shu Tian, the director is looking for you." "What''s the matter?" "I don''t know." Zhang Rui''er said in a low voice. "She doesn''t look well. You should be careful." Shu Tian nodded, walked to the director''s office, took a deep breath and knocked on the door. "Come in." The door clicked open. Liu Wei was sitting behind her desk, staring at theputer screen. When she saw Shu Tiane in, her face darkened and she threw a blue folder on the desk. "There''s a mistake. Take it back and correct it. Hand it in tomorrow." Shu Tian took it and was still a little nervous in the face of Liu Wei. "Director Liu, where''s the mistake?" The document was very thick. If she really checked it one by one, she might have to go through it until midnight. "Shall I rework or shall you?" Liu Wei''s tone was unkind. "Shall I mark it out and then teach you how to correct it?" Shu Tian felt that her request was normal, but Liu Wei''s hostility surprised her. No matter what, it was work. Bringing personal emotions in would affect her too much. But there was no way. She was the leader. Shu Tian could only leave with the document and go back to her seat to check it one by one. So when it was time to get off work, Shu Tian still couldn''t leave on time. Tang Zechen''s call upset her and she simply turned her phone to flight mode. After some time, everyone in the office was gone, and there was no sound at all. Suddenly, the light above her was blocked by darkness. Shu Tian was shocked, but the moment she looked up, she saw an extremely familiar face. Chapter 30 Chapter 30 She subconsciously looked around and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw no one, "Why did you go downstairs?" Li Han didn''t answer, but his eyes fell on the document she had opened, "Didn''t you just sort it out?" Shu Tian was stunned and followed the man''s line of sight. She didn''t expect he would have such a good memory that he kept everything in mind. He only nced at the documentst time and remembered it until now. "Our director said there were some mistakes and asked me to redo this work." "Where are the mistakes?" Shu Tian grimaced, "I don''t know." "You don''t know?" Li Han raised his eyebrows, and his slender fingersnded on one of the pages. He tapped twice, "No notes?" Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. "No." Shu Tian looked up at him, "She asked me to reexamine them by myself." Li Han looked at the dark circles under the woman''s big eyes, walked around the desk and pulled a chair to sit beside her. He took the document from the table and said, "Which page are you reading?" "Ah?" Shu Tian was stunned and blinked at him. "Which page are you reading?" Shu Tian came to her senses and flipped back two pages of the document, "Here." Li Han continued to read it in the huge and quiet office with her breathing all around his ears. Shu Tian could not help but look at the man from the corner of her eye. He was only wearing a shirt, and his coat was ced somewhere. A luxurious watch on his left wrist made him look nobler, and his hair was neatlybed. His forehead was smooth and full, and he was exceptionally handsome under the light. "Sexy." This was the first word that shed through Shu Tian''s mind. Li Han looked differentpared to how he looked in the bed. He was working hard, which caused her urge to covet him. But at the same time, she didn''t dare to approach him. ncing at him, Shu Tian gradually couldn''t help but turn her head away. She didn''t notice it at all, but her sharp eyes made Li Han a little distracted. "Read the documents." The man''s cold voice reached her ears. Only then did Shu Tian realize that she had lost herposure and was embarrassed. She blushed with her neck red and hurriedly took back her sight. She was obsessed with his handsomeness... Shu Tian originally thought that it would take Li Han a long time to read them, but in less than half an hour, he had already found out two mistakes and wrote down the advice of revision. She sighed again. Although Li Han had always been a dressed-up beast in her heart, she had to admit that he was more professional than anyone inw. He was sopetent that Shu Tian felt that the articles were just a part of his brain and that he could take them out at any time without using any reference. "These are all low-level mistakes. Don''t make them again in the future." Li Han handed the documents back to her. "I see. Thank you." Shu Tian felt a little embarrassed for some reason. If Liu Wei knew what Li Han had done for her, she would probably skin her with hatred. The female intuition told her that the reason why Liu Wei hated her so much might have something to do with Li Han. "Pack things up. I''ll send you back." Seeing that he was about to leave, Shu Tian grabbed the man''s sleeve and said, "No. You sent me home yesterday. Tang Zechen saw it. I''ll go back myself today so that he won''t suspect me." "I''ll take you to the entrance of the vi area." It was a little further away from the single building. Shu Tian didn''t dare to take the risk, "Never mind. I''ll go back myself. It''s gettingte. I won''t bother you..." "Go to the car first." "..." Shu Tian was stunned for a few seconds. Wasn''t she refusing to get in the car now? She had no choice but to follow Li Han and get into the passenger seat of his Bentley. However, as soon as she got in the car, she regretted it. Li Han lifted her to hisp without saying a word. The driver''s seat reclined to the utmost extent, and the two of them got close together on the basis of maximizing space. Shu Tian''s breath almost stopped, "What, what are you doing?" The man''s eyes were dark, like a deep and bottomlesske, "What do you think?" "..." Shu Tian''s face was so red that blood could drip from it, "But it''s toote now." "Soe on. Let me finish it quickly if you can. Otherwise, just take it." Shu Tian waspletely defeated. Well, she really didn''t have that ability. ... At the door of Manshan Vi, Shu Tian unbuckled her seat belt and waved her hand listlessly, "I''m leaving." The man slowly rubbed the edge of the steering wheel with his fingers, "Speed up to get the evidence. I can''t wait long." Shu Tian knew exactly what he meant by "can''t wait". She blushed and closed the car door, answered casually and walked towards the vi group behind her. ... When she got home, she didn''t see Tang Zechen. It was quiet in the room. Shu Tian changed her shoes and went up to the second floor, but no one was there. Wasn''t he at home? Shu Tian called out tentatively, "Tang Zechen?" What she got was the silence in the room. She strode lightly and nced at the door of the study at the end of the second floor. Normally, Tang Zechen would work here at home, and there were also a lot of important documents of Boyu Tech inside. Shu Tian bit her lips and walked slowly over. As expected, the door of the study was locked, so she quickened her steps to the master bedroom and took out the spare key from the small drawer under the wardrobe. After sessfully opening the door of the study, there was a stack of documents on the table. Shu Tian walked over quickly and opened them, but found them unimportant. She had to hurry, so she rummaged through drawers one by one. But she did not dare to move the things too much for fear that Tang Zechen would notice that his things had been touched. So she could only be as careful as possible. Not long after, a thinyer of sweat had already formed on her forehead. Chapter 31 Chapter 31 Plop, plop, plop- In the quiet study room, Shu Tian''s ears were filled with the heavy heartbeat in her chest, and even her fingers were trembling slightly as she flipped through the documents. Finally, in the bottom drawer of the desk, Shu Tian found the financial statements of Boyu Tech. Boyu Tech was exactly Tang Zechen''spany. She didn''t have time to take a closer look. Therefore, she immediately took out her phone, took a clear picture of each page of the document, and saved a backup. After finding the financial statements, Shu Tian was somewhat confident she could find more, but then she went through almost all the documents under her eyes and didn''t find anything useful. Shu Tian was anxious and annoyed. She looked around the study room and finally looked at the Turned it on! However, to her surprise, theputer did not set any password and turned on directly! She knew that Tang Zechen had never been a cautious person, which she could tell from his usual behavior and conduct, but she never expected him to be so careless. Was he trusting or underestimating her? Shu Tian curled up her lips mockingly. She really wanted to thank that silly self in the past. It was precisely because she had never tried to enter his study room that Tang Zechen was so rxed and did not even set a password. In the quiet study room, there was almost no sound except for the click of the mouse. Shu Tian carefully looked through every disk in theputer. She had minored inputer science in her sophomore year, so it was not difficult for her to find the invisible disk in theputer. Twenty minutes the USB drive from her bag, and had it all copied. Pasting 10 %... Pasting 50 %... Pasting 80 %... Seeing the progress bar growing, Shu Tian also became increasingly nervous with her palms sweating. As the copying and pasting were about toplete, the sound of the car stalling suddenly came from the yard downstairs. The light in the study room was not on, and it was impossible to see her from the outside. But standing in the study room, Shu Tian''s body was stiff. Someone was back! Pasting 89 %... With a click, the gate door opened and someone came in. Pasting 97 %... There was a rustle downstairs, and she heard the sound of the shoe cab opening. Almost there. Shu Tian''s hands, which were hanging by her sides, suddenly clenched. Did she have to give up? If she gave up now, she didn''t know when the next opportunity woulde, and she didn''t know how long she could keep it from Tang Zechen. Shu Tian decided to take a gamble and listened to the sounding closer downstairs. She bit her lips tightly, nced at theputer screen, and dodged out of the study room. At the same time, almost at the same second, Tang Zechen appeared at the corner of the stairs on the second floor. When he saw Shu Tian standing in the corridor, the man was stunned for a second. Then he strode towards her and lifted the woman''s delicate chin with his long fingers. "Stand here to wee me?" Shu Tian resisted the impulse to push him away and smelled alcohol from his body. "You drank?" Tang Zechen leaned in a little. "I had a business dinner tonight. Director Liu was still shouting to go to the clubhouse after the dinner but I went back..." "..." Shu Tian almost couldn''t help but p him in the face because she was thinking about the materials she got from the study room. She could only resist her disgust for him and changed the subject." You''re drunk. I''ll help you rest." Hearing this, a sh of surprise shed in Tang Zechen''s eyes. Recently, Shu Tian hadn''t treated him well. She either ignored him or red at him. What had she just said? To help him rest? Could it be that she had changed her position and understood who was in charge of this family? Tang Zechen looked at the woman in front of him up and down, then grabbed her thin neck. He narrowed his eyes that revealed a dangerous light. "Shu Tian, have you done something wrong to me?" Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat, but she still sounded calm. "What nonsense are you talking about? Even if I did something out of line again, will it be worse than what you have done with Jiang Mengyao?" Tang Zechen frowned. "When you''re with me, can you not talk about her all the time?" Shu Tian said sarcastically, "What? You''ve already done it but I can''t even mention it?" Tang Zechen gritted his teeth in anger. After a while, he suddenly chuckled and buried his lips in her ear. "I didn''t realize you were so eloquent before, but it''s good. I like energetic women!" After that, Tang Zechen, regardless of her resistance, picked her up and walked towards the master bedroom. Shu Tian was startled and kept patting his chest with both hands, but her strength was useless in front of Tang Zechen. He walked into the bedroom and pressed her down on the bed almost unimpededly. Feeling the man''s burning palms caressing her body, Shu Tian couldn''t help but exim, "Tang Zechen, what are you doing? Let me go!" "Let you go? No way!" Tang Zechen''s desire was so endlessly strong that it frightened her. "You''re breaking thew!" Shu Tian roared, hoping to awaken his senses. "What, are you going to sue me?" Tang Zechen was not afraid at all. His hands did not stop at all, and Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. he even increased his strength to torture her. You''ll have to wait until I''m done!" As he spoke, he lowered his head to kiss her. Shu Tian turned her head away in disgust. He moved to the left, and she moved to the right. He couldn''t kiss her in a few attempts. Tang Zechen went so impatient that he cursed in a low voice. He couldn''t wait to reach out to break her underwear. The thin fabric in his hand was quite easy to be removed. With a slight tug, it was removed. The cold air hit her skin, and Shu Tian''s eyes widened in shock. When she saw that Tang Zechen was really going to have sex with her, her whole body could not help but tremble. She kicked her legs crazily a few times, but in the end, the man found the chance to control her and grabbed her ankles. The light above her head shone down, and Tang Zechen looked straight at her. After more than a year of marriage, he really didn''t realize that Shu Tian had such a beautiful body. "Tian, you''re so beautiful. I can''t control myself anymore..." "Go away from me!" Shu Tian struggled desperately with her eyes red, but her strength was no match to his. She was like a fish on a chopping block, unable to fight back and waiting to be ughtered. She was so desperate that she actually thought that if she was really raped by Tang Zechen today, she would rather die! Tang Zechen seemed not to see her fear. He was dominated by endless desires. No matter how fiercely she resisted, he had no intention to stop. Chapter 32 Chapter 32 Suddenly, there was a numbing pain in his forehead. Something knocked on him, making him suddenly feel dizzy. He looked at the woman under him. Her little pale face took on the determination. She was holding the European-style bedsidemp, with her fingers fair and delicate. The warm blood trickled down his forehead. Tang Zechen reached out and felt the sticky touch. What he could see was a crimson. Shu Tian watched the blood oozing out. Half of Tang Zechen''s face was covered in blood, and even his eyes were stained with blood. She was so scared that she threw out themp in her hand and pushed him away. Then she stood by the bed, dumbstruck. Before she could recover from the shock, Tang Zechen had covered his wound and walked towards her with a frightening expression. "Ah!" Shu Tian opened the door and ran out with a spare key. Quickly locking the master bedroom door, she took out her phone and called for an ambnce. After giving the address on the phone, she ran to the study to pull out the USB drive and rushed out of the vi... The night wind in small hours was a little cold, blowing on her tear-stained face like a de. In a panic, Shu Tian ran down the path of the vi. She hadn''t stopped before she ran onto the main road. After running strenuously, her lungs were burning with pain. She sat on the side of the road. asionally a car passed past her, but she was so flustered that she did not know what to do. It seemed that the crimson blood was still in front of her. Blood gushed from Tang Zechen''s head just now. Would something happen to him? If he died, would she be sentenced to death? She shouldn''t have hit him so hard. All she had to do was pushing him away. She never wanted to kill him, never... For a moment, Shu Tian''s mind was in a mess. She had all kinds of thoughts. Those pessimistic or depressing thoughts, like a big invisible, wrapped around her tightly. Even breathing became difficult. She didn''t even bring her phone when she rushed out just now. In the endless night, she didn''t know where she could go. As time passed, she heard the shrill horn of the ambnce and watched the ambnce running into the vi gate. In less than ten minutes, the ambnce pulled away. This ambnce must have been sent to pick up Tang Zechen. She didn''t know what was going on with him... Shu Tian staggered to her feet. She was just about to leave when an SUV stopped beside her. With a squeak, the tires rubbed against the ground, and a blinding white light hit her. Subconsciously, she raised her hand to cover her eyes. Before she could see the person clearly, her arm was grabbed by a huge force. She was dragged into the car. Away from the re of the headlights, she finally saw who the person was. It was an extremely familiar face filled with anger. "How did you know I was here..." Shu Tian asked in a low and trembling voice. Li Han frowned and locked his eyes on her ragged clothes. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly saw a small blood patch on her lower abdomen. His eyes were slightly cold, "Are you hurt?" Shu Tian followed his gaze, and her eyes brimmed with tears again. Raising her hand to cover her face, she couldn''t help but cry out, "It''s not me. It''s Tang Zechen..." Li Han''s heart sank, "What did you do to him?" "I hit him. He''s in the hospital now. I don''t know if he''ll die..." Shu Tian almost said incoherently, "He was rushed to hospital by ambnce. I''ve been sitting here all the time, and I''ve seen it with my own eyes..." "Shu Tian." Li Han picked up her face and called her name. When he met her eyes, he realized that her eyes were not even focused, "Look at me." Shu Tian closed her eyes, with tears rolling down her face, "Li Han, I''m doomed. Tang Zechen will never let me go..." "No." Li Han''s voice was calm, and his every word was so firm, "He won''t die." Hearing this, Shu Tian opened her eyes. Her long eyshes were wet with tears, and she looked as if she had been pulled out of the water... "Really?" "Trust me." Li Han took off his coat and draped it over her shoulder. If he hadn''t found that there was something wrong with her location before he went to bed tonight, maybe something more serious would happen. She just sat on the street in the middle of the night. Chances were that she had an ident before Tang Zechen died. Li Han brought Shu Tian back to Imperial Garden. When Shu Tian came back here again, she was in a Seeing her standing at the door in a daze, Li Han bent down slightly and took out a pair of slippers. He ced them under her feet, "Go upstairs and take a shower." Shu Tian could not help but tighten her clothes. She was still lost in thought of what had happened just now, but she was obedient to Li Han''s words. She silently changed her shoes and walked to the second floor. Li Han looked at her slightly unstable figure. His bushy and raised eyebrows closed up again, but he didn''t say anything in the end. Li Han changed out of his leisurewear. There was still some work yet to be dealt with. Hearing the ssh of water from the master bedroom, he finally returned to his room. Li Han leaned against the headboard of the bed andy half down. Suddenly, a loud "ng" came from the bathroom. Li Han strode over and knocked on the door with his long fingers, "Shu Tian?" The sound of the water continued, but no one answered. With his eyes hardening, Li Han opened the door. In the water vapor, Shu Tian squatted on the ground, with her drenched ck hair drenching draping over her back. She was reaching out to pick up the broken crystal cup by her feet... Li Han stepped forward to pull her up, but he was stillte. A drop of blood oozed from Shu Tian''s fingertips cut by the broken ss, but she didn''t feel anything. She just lowered her head slightly, "I''m sorry..." Li Han''s suppressed anger was finally aroused. He held her wrist with great strength, "What are you sorry for?" Shu Tian''s eyes reddened, "I broke your cup." "What else?" Seeing that she was lowering her head and not speaking, Li Han pinched her cheeks and lifted her head, forcing her to look at him, "Do you need me to speak for you? Are you sorry for breaking my cup or for hitting Tang Zechen?" Shu Tian felt the pain of his pinch, in which she was also a little sober. Her small hand climbed onto the back of Li Han''s hand, and her eyes were full of helplessness. The liquid in the corner of her eyes fell, but she couldn''t tell whether it was water or tears, "Li Han, I''m afraid..." Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. "Are you afraid?" The man smiled evilly, which was scaring, "Then have sex until you''re not afraid!" He pressed her against the wall. The cold tiles stimted Shu Tian''s body. She shuddered and watched him leaning over... Why didn''t she feel nauseous in front of Li Han? Their rtionship was built by him, but it was her who was gradually intoxicated with it. Against the light, Shu Tian looked at the man who was lying naked on her. When she hadn''t realized it, tears from the corners of her eyes fell across her side face and finally disappeared into the hair at her temples, "Li Han, why have you never kissed me?" Chapter 33 Chapter 33 When she woke up the next day, the man around her was no longer there. Shu Tian had hardly slept soundly from the middle of the night to dawn, and she even heard the door close slightly when Li Han left. She did not forget what happened yesterday, including she had injured Tang Zechen. She sat up slightly from the bed, her aching body reminding her of how intensely they had sexst night. Her clothes were scattered all over the floor. Shu Tian lowered her eyes, with lights blinking in them. Her facial features conveyed she slightly felt a sense of loss. She took her cell phone, found that there were countless missed calls and text messages. She still had to face what she didn''t want to face, and everything had to be solved. Shu Tian found Ye Lihua''s missed call and called her back, and as expected, it was in a mess as the call was put through. "Tian, where are you now? You haven''t answered the phone all night. Your father and I are worried to death!" Shu Tian raised her hand and pinched her eyebrows, "Mom, I''m fine." Ye Lihua lowered her voice and asked, "Did you cause Zechen''s injury?" "Yes." "You..." Ye Lihua froze, "You''re confused!" "Mom, where are you now? I''ll go over." "Your father, I, and the people of Tang Family are at the First People''s Hospital. When you arrive, call me and I''ll pick you up." ... Forty minutester, Shu Tian took a taxi to the First People''s Hospital. Ye Lihua came downstairs early to pick her up. They went upstairs together. As soon as they got out of the elevator door, they met Liu Lifang who was waiting for them intentionally. The well-maintained face instantly twisted and looked at her fiercely. "Shu Tian, you''ve caused my son so much trouble. How dare you toe?!" Her voice was so sharp that it nearly could pierce others'' eardrums. "Is he awake?" Shu Tian''s face was calm. Before she came, she had already imagined everything that would happen, including Liu Lifang''s loss of control. "No!" Tang Guofeng pointed at her face rudely, "If something happens to my son, you can''t get away with it!" Shu Tian didn''t say anything. She walked to the bench in the corridor and sat down. When she heard that Tang Zechen was not awake, her face turned pale, "Don''t worry, I''m not trying to pass the buck." Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei felt bad looking at her like this, but no matter how much theyined, they could not say it now. A human''s life was of greater value than everything, and now everything depended on whether Tang Zechen could wake up. All were easy to negotiate if he could wake up. Almost an hourter, the nurse came out from the ICU and said that the patient was awake. Liu Lifang cried and went into the ward. She walked to the bed and looked at Tang Zechen, whose head was covered in gauze. Her tears fell even more. Shu Changlei felt a little bad when he saw this. The situation was much more serious than they had imagined. "Zechen, how do you feel now?" Tang Guofeng leaned over and changed his usual image as a stern father, being very concerned. "I''m fine." Tang Zechen''s voice was hoarse. His gaze swept over one by one and finally stayed at Shu Tian. Malice quickly gathered in his eyes, "Oh, Shu Tian, how dare you toe?" Shu Tian walked closer and asked the doctor next to her. Knowing that he was fine, it was such a weight off her mind, "Tang Zechen, let''s talk alone." "What are you going to talk about? Do you still want to hurt my son?!" Liu Lifang gave Shu Tian a hard push. Shu Tian staggered and almost fell. Shu Changlei held her up, "Mother of my son-inw, talk to me. Calm down, please. It should be expressed by words rather than by fights." "Fights? Look at what she''s done to my son! How dare you tell me not to hit her? When the parents behave wrongly, the offsprings will do the same. It was because you didn''t teach your daughter well!" Hearing this, Shu Tian frowned, "I did something wrong indeed and you can vent your anger at me. It Original content from N?velDrama.Org. has nothing to do with my parents." It didn''t matter what Liu Lifang said about her, but Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua shouldn''t have suffered that with her. "You..." "Mom, stop talking." Tang Zechen suddenly interrupted her and looked at Shu Tian, "Let''s talk alone." "No! You''re lying on the bed now. What if she has any more bad intentions towards you?" "Mom!" Tang Zechen emphasized. "You''re all here. She doesn''t dare to. Don''t worry." In the end, Liu Lifang still was unable to dissuade Tang Zechen. Everyone withdrew, leaving only Shu Tian and him in the ward. Shu Tian looked at the man''s forehead tightly bandaged and walked to the end of the bed to stand still, "Tang Zechen, why would I have liked you before?" Tang Zechen didn''t expect that her first words were not to care about him but to use him. His eyes darkened, "Why did you ask that, do you regret it?" "I regret it." Shu Tian didn''t hesitate for a second, "I regret knowing you, I regret liking you, and I regret marrying you despite the opposition of many people." If time could go back, she would rather she had never known this person. There was no love left. Jiang Mengyao was like thest piece of cloth covering the scandal between them. When the cloth was torn off, the ugliest looks of each other were revealed. In this rtionship, he acted badly, and her behavior was not proper. Obviously, Tang Zechen didn''t expect her to say this. He was even a little surprised and just stared nkly at her and forgot to react. He had never seen Shu Tian like this before. Her eyes, which had always been filled with love, now looked at him with endless indifference. After a while, Tang Zechen came back to his senses. He looked at the back of his hand, which was still being put on a drip, "You want a divorce? You held something to hurt me. Do you think you can escape unscathed?" Shu Tian narrowed her eyes, "What do you mean?" "If you give up on the divorce, I will pretend that this didn''t happen. If you insist on the divorce, I will sue you for intentional assault." Tang Zechen saw the tremor in her eyes and added again, "Shu Tian, think about your parents. Do you think it''s worth giving up everything to divorce me?" Shu Tian clenched her fists with her hands hanging by her side, "I promise you to leave without taking any property after divorce, okay?" "No." Tang Zechen raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "I regret it. I''m not going to divorce." Shu Tian was stunned and chuckled, "You don''t love me. Why do you do that?" Compared to they tortured each other, and drifted away for the rest of their lives, it was better to break up and never see each other again. "Are you in a hurry to leave me so that you can have fun with your adulterer?" Tang Zechen''s eyes turned cold, "Even if I can''t get you, I won''t let anyone else get you!" Shu Tian gritted her teeth in hatred, "You''re a lunatic!" Tang Zechenughed horribly, "It''s a pity you fell into my hands." Shu Tian looked at the man on the bed, and the only worry she had left was dissipated by his few words. How could a person do this? "There''s no regret medicine in this world. You should have thought of this when you hit me on the head." Tang Zechen pointed at his head as he spoke. Shu Tian''s eyes turned cold, "If I knew it would be this result, I would kill you." "Then let''s torture each other to death and see who breaks down first." When views were irreconcble, it was a waste of breath to continue the discussion. Shu Tian didn''t want to look at him again and walked straight out of the ward. In the corridor, everyone was waiting. When she came out, Liu Lifang red at her vigntly and hurried into the ward, afraid that Tang Zechen would be hurt by Shu Tian if she was a stepte. Shu Changlei walked over with a tired face, "How was your conversation?" Shu Tian suppressed the emotion in her eyes, "It''s okay, mom and dad. You guys go back first. I''ll deal with it myself." Ye Lihua looked anxious, "How can you solve it by yourself? If you are alone, you even don''t have a single person to discuss." Shu Tian sighed, "He doesn''t want a divorce, so I have to wait." "Tian, you''re a smart kid. Why are you so confused at the critical moment? No matter what, you can''t solve it with fights!" Ye Lihua was on the verge of tears, and she was obviously frightened. Shu Tian couldn''t say that Tang Zechen wanted to rape her, so she could only calm her mother down, "I know, mom. Don''t worry. I can handle that." In the ward, Tang Zechen took out his phone to edit a text message while perfunctorily answering Liu Lifang''s questions. The text message wrote, "Check Shu Tian''s recent whereabouts, including who she is in contact with, and contact me as soon as possible if you find something." Chapter 34 Chapter 34 After leaving the hospital, Shu Tian sent Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua home. Then Shu Tian immediately returned to thepany. She skipped work all morning. Therefore, when she arrived at the office, Zhang Rui''er quickly showed her the contents of the meeting this morning and whispered in her ear, "You don''t know that when Liu Wei heard that you asked for leave today, her face darknened. Those who didn''t know the truth thought you had skipped work." Asking for leave? Shu Tian was stunned. Many things had happened yesterday, and she went to the hospital this morning. She was not even in the mood to ask for leave. Then who helped her ask for leave? The moment the question shed, Shu Tian thought of that cold face. Besides Li Han, no one else had the ability. However, in this way, it was more likely for Liu Wei to treat her as an eyesore. "Maybe I offended her in some way." Shu Tian was a little helpless and picked up the files and documents on the table, "Rui, I''m going to have a meeting with Lawyer Ye." Zhang Rui''er made an ''OK'' gesture. "Alright. I''ll keep you posted. Don''t worry." When Shu Tian entered the conference room, Ye Junting and Wu Mengfan were already there. Seeing here in, Ye Junting didn''t say anything and only had a brief meeting about the work. Before the meeting ended, Ye Junting suddenly said, "You can go back first. I want Shu Tian to stay." Wu Mengfan was stunned and gave Shu Tian an angry look. Even if she was unwilling, it wasn''t Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. appropriate for her to say anything in Ye Junting''s presence. She could only leave obediently. There were only two people left in the conference room. Shu Tian looked down at the documents carefully and suddenly heard Ye Junting ask her, "Shu Tian, right?" She was stunned and nodded honestly, "Yes." The man threw the pen in his hand on the table and leaned back. His posture was casual but gave a stronger sense of pressure to people, "Did I tell you that there is no shortcut here?" It was hard for Shu Tian to forget such an overwhelming behavior, "Yes, I did." "Then why you asked for leave today? Liu Wei said you were on leave. Why didn''t I get any notice from you?" Ye Junting smiled lightly, sat up straight again, and put his hands on the table, "Or am I not qualified to receive your leave message?" "No." Shu Tian was afraid that he would misunderstand and exined anxiously, "I didn''t mean that. It''s an unexpected incident today, so I didn''t have time to ask for leave. I promise there won''t be a next time." "I don''t need such meaningless promise." Ye Junting''s voice was stern, "If it happened again, you can go and learn from otherwyers. I don''t need a green hand who even don''t respect others, understand?" Shu Tian''s head was almost buried under the table, "Got it." Ye Junting was then looking at her, "A client wille over this afternoon. You go and receive him." "Me?" Shu Tian raised her head and pointed at herself. "Are you afraid?" "I''m not afraid..." But she had just started work, and Ye Junting asked her to receive clients. She was a little worried. Ye Junting took a good look at her astonished expression and threw a document at her, "Learn more about it. I''ll be there too. You don''t have to be afraid." Shu Tian was relieved when she heard that he would be there too, "Thank you, I..." Ye Junting interrupted her and waved his hand in disgust, "All right, you can leave now." ... At 2: 30 pm, Shu Tian followed Ye Junting to the reception room. A man in a gray jacket, about 1.7 meters tall, walked into the consulting room. "Lawyer Ye." The man limped on one leg and walked unsteadily. He reached out his hand to Ye Junting from a distance, which showed his respect for him. Ye Junting shook his hand, "Mr. Li, this is Shu Tian,wyer Shu, who assists in the case." The first time she heard someone call her awyer, Shu Tian was still very excited. She grabbed Mr. Li''s hand and said, "Hello." But... Sensing the abnormality of the hand in her palm, she looked down and realized that the man had lost three fingers on his right hand. Shu Tian frowned slightly and pulled her hand back without changing her expression. She did not show any difort throughout. Ye Junting nced at her and said to Mr. Li, "Please sit down." After getting to know more, Shu Tian learned that Mr. Li had previously worked in a coal mining resulted in aminuted fracture of his left knee, and the loss of his right index finger, ring finger, and little finger. This irreversible injury almost changed his whole life, and he had a daughter in junior high school. "Lawyer Ye,wyer Shu, I have worked diligently for the Baoyou Group for nearly 20 years and have never harmed the interests of thepany. But now, they are not even willing to give me fair The man did not shed tears easily, they only wept when deeply grieved. Shu Tian took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and handed over a tissue, "Mr. Li, don''t worry. This Ye Junting suddenly nced at her, but he didn''t say much. Instead, he calmly understood the details with Mr. Li. He was so calm that Shu Tian felt that he was a little cold-blooded. The interviewsted nearly two hours. After sending Mr. Li away, Ye Junting called Shu Tian to his office. The two of them were walking towards the office. Coincidentally, they met Li Han and a group of Before Shu Tian could react, Ye Junting had stopped and shouted respectfully, "Boss Li." "Hum." Li Han answered softly and looked at Shu Tian unintentionally. Shu Tian became nervous and her teeth trembled, "Boss Li." Li Han nced at her and finally looked at Ye Junting as if he didn''t know her, "The neer?" "Yes, she can be regarded as my junior sister. I just took her to see the client." The man''s dark eyes were so deep and bottomless. He looked straight at Shu Tian, making her did not even dare to breathe. After a long time, the man nodded slightly, "You go on." The moment she passed by, Shu Tian heaved a sigh of relief. Ye Junting raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why are you nervous?" Shu Tian''s expression froze, "No, I''m a little scared to see the boss." Fortunately, the two of them walked side by side. Ye Junting could not see her expression and did not ask further. And this scene happened to be seen by Wu Mengfan. She heard all the conversation just now and thought in her mind: "See the client? Shu Tian has only been here for a few days and is able to see the client. She has even gone into the consulting room a few times now! And Ye Junting patted her on the shoulder just now?" Wu Mengfan tightened her grip on the document in her hand, and her face with delicate makeup gradually distorted. "I have heard that this Shu Tian has some tricks, but I don''t expect that she would dare to coquette in front of Ye Junting. How shameless!" "Mengfan, what are you doing here?" Colleagues in the same group saw her standing foolishly with the documents and gave her a gentle push. Wu Mengfan came back to her senses, "Nothing..." She lowered her eyes slightly and as if she thought of something. When she looked up again, she seemed a little hesitant and timid, "Yu, I saw Shu Tian and Lawyer Ye half-hugging each other and entering his office together. Do you think..." Chapter 35 Chapter 35 Speaking of this, she deliberately paused and looked at Yu meaningfully. If not mistaken, Yu was a clerk in the Hanyi Law Office, who had expressed her admiration for Ye Junting both secretly and apparently. As for the extent of her admiration, it was hard to tell. Hearing these words, Yu immediately looked in the direction of Ye Junting''s office. However, it was shuttered and she could not see clearly what was going on inside. However, she said fiercely as if she had seen something, "I''ve heard from the people from Liu Wei that Shu Tian got in through the back door and had a rtionship with the higher-ups. Now she even wants to get close to Lawyer Ye. It''s too much..." Wu Mengfan quietly ran her fingers through her hair, "Well, who knows? I just said it without thinking. Let''s go to work." ... However, the atmosphere in the office waspletely different. Ye Junting mmed the document on the table, "Who let you make promises to the client just now?" Shu Tian was stunned, "Ah? What promise?" Ye Junting put his hands on the table and leaned closer to her, "You don''t remember?" Shu Tian swallowed hard under his pressure and thought about what he said. Finally, what she had said came into her mind, "It''s not hard to win thewsuit. We will definitely give you justice." But what was wrong with that? Wasn''t it a normal sentence? Besides, she was trying tofort Mr. Li. She looked up, "I don''t think there''s anything wrong with what I said." "Don''t you think so?" Ye Junting slightly smiled, which was almost impossible to perceive. "Do you have any evidence? Are you sure of winning the case? You didn''t even apply for the files in court. How could you promise that?" "I just think that as awyer, I should take this responsibility..." "You think?" Ye Junting mmed the table and burst into a rage, "Didn''t you learn from school that you should be responsible for every word you say in your legal work? If this case can''t be handled, your words are not a life-saving straw, but thest straw to crush Mr. Li! And you just mentioned responsibility. Is this what you mean?" Shu Tian was stunned by his words. She didn''t understand why he suddenly lost his temper and was a little angry, "It was just some words. Lawyer Ye, if you had a prejudice about me, you don''t have to find faults with my work." Hearing this, Ye Junting seemed to be shocked, then looked at her with even more disdain, "Finding faults? Come on, who do you think you are?" Shu Tian was furious. "Just some words." He deliberately emphasized the first few words, "If your mind is not rigorous, you are not suitable for legal work." Shu Tian clenched her hands tightly. She wanted to refute Ye Junting because from the moment she entered the office, she didn''t think that she was wrong. Even before she argued with him, she didn''t think so. But now she couldn''t say a word. "You say that I don''t separate the public from private matters." Ye Junting stood up straight with his cold eyes, "It seems that you have graduated but left your brain in school." He threw her files over, "Get out of here. I don''t want to teach such a neer like you." ... Shu Tian didn''t know how she got back to the office. She was totally distracted. When Zhang Rui''er saw her like this, Zhang Rui''er hesitated several times but finally took her out of the office. "Shu Tian, what''s wrong with you? Why are you so listless?" Shu Tian shook her head, "Nothing." "Are you okay?" "Yes." Shu Tian was obviously absent-minded, "Rui, I still have a document to finish. I''ll go back first." When Zhang Rui''er saw that she was leaving, Zhang Rui''er bit the teeth and grabbed her. Rui looked around and asked her in a low voice, "Shu Tian, are you and Lawyer Ye really..." "What do you mean?" "Don''t me me for talking too much. Everyone in the office is talking about you and Lawyer Ye in the office..." Zhang Rui''er stopped halfway. Shu Tian was stunned, then frowned, "Do you believe it?" Zhang Rui''er stammered, "I certainly didn''t believe it at first, but I couldn''t help thinking too much when seeing you being unusual after returning. But I still believe in you in my heart, or I wouldn''t have asked you!" Shu Tian smiled helplessly, "I don''t know who spreads it. The truth is that Ye Junting called me in and scolded me." Zhang Rui''er was stunned, "No way. Who bothers to spreads such words when you are scolded in fact..." Shu Tian didn''t want to think much, "Let them be." What could she do when someone was deliberately against her in the dark? Exining? Compared to the truth, they were more willing to believe in gossips, and she was just the topic for them Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. to relieve the pressure. No one would believe what she said. Instead, it was nothing but adding insult to injury. ... On the other side, when Tang Zechen received a call from the private detective, he had just finished his test in the hospital. "Boss Tang, I got it. Miss Shu has been working at the Hanyi Law Office recently. It is said that she has been close to Li Han, the boss of the Hanyi Law Office recently, but the divorcewsuit has not been found. It is likely that thepany is helping her from behind. Hanyi Law Office has always been very confidential so it is difficult to detect." Tang Zechen suddenly sat up from the bed and frowned, "Li Han? Li Han of the Hanyi Law Office?!" Jiang Mengyao was peeling an apple for him when seeing his reaction and she helped him up quickly, "Take it slow." Tang Zechen was so anxious that he waved her hand away, making the back of Jiang Mengyao''s hand turned red. However, he didn''t seem to notice it at all and didn''t even look at it. Jiang Mengyao''s hand paused in the air. She looked at the red mark for a long time before she pulled back her hand. "Did you find out how they got to know each other?" "I''m sorry, Mr. Tang, it is not in my work." "Okay, I see. I''ll call youter." Tang Zechen hung up the phone with a bang and sat on the bed panting, his eyes burning with terrifying anger. Even Jiang Mengyao got a little scared when seeing him like this, "Zechen, what''s wrong with you..." "Fuck!" Tang Zechen mmed the bed, "Shu Tian is really fucking cheating on me!" A feeling of surprise shed in Jiang Mengyao''s eyes. She turned around and walked up to the man, patting him and pretending to be considerate, "Zechen, I told you that Shu Tian was not a good woman. Maybe she hadn''t behaved herself in the past. Don''t be angry. It''s not worth it to be angry and get hurt. Besides, you are getting divorced now. Don''t care about her." Tang Zechen smiled a frightening smile, "She made it hard for me. How could she be so carefree and leave after having the advantages? I must let her pay the price!" Jiang Mengyao frowned secretly. She didn''t understand why he was so angry about the divorce. Thinking of the name she had just heard, she asked, "Who is Li Han?" Tang Zeche nced at her now, "The big boss of the Hanyi Law Office, a person even my father can''t curry favor with." Jiang Mengyao was shocked to hear that. Although she had never known the legal profession when she heard Tang Zechen say this, she knew that the person even Tang Guofeng couldn''t curry favor with must be so powerful that could turn the world. However, anyone with a high social status must be over half a hundred years old. Li Han was probably an old man. How could Shu Tian have affairs with such a man? Thinking of this, Jiang Mengyao leaned closer, "Zechen, don''t be angry. Take care of yourself first and deal with the bitch coupleter when you are well." Chapter 36 Chapter 36 "What do you know!" Tang Zechen spat out a foul breath. "Since Shu Tian already chooses someone else, there is a purpose for her toe back. I must guard against it." After saying that, he felt that this was more reasonable, so he called the servant at home, "Change the lock in my study. If Shu Tianes home in the future, keep an eye on her, and report everything she does to me." After hanging up the phone, Tang Zechen suddenly pulled out the needle on the back of his hand, which startled Jiang Mengyao. "Zechen, the doctor hasn''t discharged you yet. What are you doing?" Tang Zechen was not seriously injured, and the stitches were not too much of a hindrance. He only stayed in the hospital to threaten Shu Tian. At this time, hearing the news, he couldn''t sit still at all, so he went back to see for himself. Seeing that he insisted on leaving, Jiang Mengyao did not dare to stop him. She could only let him go. Tang Zechen took the car from the hospital downstairs and looked at the time. It was almost time to get off work. He narrowed his eyes and suddenly turned around and changed the direction. Original content from N?velDrama.Org. ... Shu Tian had been a little listless all afternoon. Today, Ye Junting scolded her, and she felt distressed. She was confronted with a setback just when she began to work. Therefore, she got a little depressed. Was it really that she wasted the year she was idle at home? When it was time to get off work, Zhang Rui''er saw that she was depressed and came over tofort her. "Okay, since you can get off work on time, what about you think it a blessing in disguise? Don''t think too much. When Lawyer Ye gets over his anger, you apologize to him." Shu Tian sighed. "If only this could happen." She was afraid that Ye Junting was determined not to take her with him. The two of them chatted as they walked towards thepany gate. Before they could reach the door, they heard the noiseing from the front desk. "I''m sorry sir, you can''t enter our work area without an appointment and a work permit." "I said I came to find my wife!" The man''s voice was a little angry. "Then please call her and ask her toe out to pick you up..." "Are you out of your mind? You don''t believe me even after I''ve already told you her name?" Shu Tian got nervous when she heard it. She had a bad feeling. The closer she got, the stronger her feeling became. She quickened her steps and as soon as she reached the front desk, she saw a familiar figure. "Tang Zechen, why are you here?" "Oh, look, I told you I was looking for someone and you didn''t let me in. Now you believe me?" Tang Zechen looked at the receptionist disdainfully. The receptionist didn''t say anything, but she looked at Shu Tian, as if she was ming Shu Tian for bringing such a person to thepany. Shu Tian took a deep breath and looked at Zhang Rui''er with a forced smile. "Rui, you go first." Zhang Rui''er saw that she couldn''t get involved. She curled her lips and pointed to the door. "I''m leaving." "Okay." Seeing that Zhang had left, Shu Tian stopped smiling and looked coldly at Tang Zechen. "Let''s talk about it outside." Tang Zechen narrowed his eyes and grabbed her wrist. "Why? Why can''t we talk here? Are you afraid that your lover will see?" He spoke in such a low voice that only the two could hear. Shu Tian red at him fiercely. "Tang Zechen, what the hell do you want to do?" "Nothing. I just want to see you." As he spoke, he looked inside. "Pretty good. I don''t even know when you became awyer." Shu Tian walked up to him and tried to hold back her anger. "This is the office area. If you have personal matters, go out and talk. Don''t interfere with other people''s work." The man sneered. "I think you''re guilty of something." Shu Tian stared at him closely. She felt that his attitude was very strange, as if he already knew something. But after all, this was Li Han''spany, and Shu Tian felt uneasy when he was here. Thinking of this, she could not help but soften her voice. "I beg you. Let''s go home and talk about it, okay?" "Oh, you haven''t begged me for a long time. The sun rose in the west today?" The two of them were at a standoff at the entrance of thepany. Just as Shu Tian was racking her brains trying to figure out how to get Tang Zechen to leave, a deep male voice suddenly came from behind. "Who''s making noise here?" Shu Tian''s pupils constricted, and she froze in ce. When she looked for the sound, she saw the man in a dark blue suit with his trousers on his business shoes. His dark gray tie was neatly tied, followed by threepany executives, including Ji Chuanyi. What was the situation now? Ex-husband and lover? Ji Chuanyi''s eyes fell on Shu Tian. Even though he maintained his usual good demeanor, Shu Tian still keenly felt that Ji Chuanyi did not like her, and even wanted to watch a show. In such a situation, as the secondrgest shareholder of thepany, it would be impossible for him to like it. Just as Shu Tian was trying to figure something out, a big hand suddenly came up from behind her waist. She subconsciously wanted to stand aside, but the man pulled her into his arms even harder. Tang Zechen looked at Li Han, who was standing opposite him. He had to say that this man was indeed powerful. He had the unique sharpness of a sessful elite, who always roamed the edge of justice. Even Tang Zechen felt pressure, but he couldn''t lose face. He looked at Shu Tian''s side face and smiled happily. "I''ve heard of Boss Li for a long time. This is Tang Zechen, Boyu Technology." Unexpectedly, Li Han didn''t even change his expression. "Boyu? I haven''t heard of it." He nced around, brushed across Shu Tian''s face, and fell back on Tang Zechen again. His tone was sharp and obvious. "You think mypany is a vegetable market?" Tang Zechen was humiliated and looked a little embarrassed, but... he looked at Shu Tian and smiled inexplicably. "I came to pick up my wife from work. I didn''t know I needed an appointment. There was a misunderstanding." "Oh, really?" Li Han kept his straight face. He gently propped one hand against the edge of the front desk and raised his eyebrows. Somehow, when Tang Zechen met his gaze, he suddenly felt nervous for a moment and unconsciously exerted force on Shu Tian''s waist. Shu Tian struggled out nervously and turned to look at him. "Can we go now?" Now that Tang Zechen had achieved his goal, he naturally did not want to stay any longer and swaggered away with Shu Tian. The receptionist couldn''t help butin in a low voice, "Who is him..." Unexpectedly, Li Han looked over and the staff immediately panicked. "I... I mean..." Just as that girl was about to exin, she heard her president say domineeringly, "He isn''t human. Don''t let them in in the future." Ji Chuanyi, "..." The receptionist, "..." Li Han walked out of thepany without looking sideways. Ji Chuanyi came back to his senses and followed him into the car. "Get down." Ji Chuanyi turned a deaf ear, fastened his seat belt and looked at the man beside him yfully. "I heard Ling Junze say that Shu Tian was living with you, right?" Li Han didn''t say anything but stared at the ck Audi in front of him. "No, I don''t understand. So many girls for you to choose all these years, why do you find a married one?" Seeing that he was about to speak, Ji Chuanyi raised his hand and interrupted him. "Don''t tell me you''re ying. No one saw you just now. But I saw you. The hand in your trouser pocket is clenched tightly. You must be angry." Chapter 37 Chapter 37 Li Han pressed the tip of his tongue against the inner side his mouth, then sneered, "You can visit Lorison Wu if you have time." "That''s two different things." Ji Chuanyi sat up straight and said in a more serious tone. "Anyway, as a friend, let me advise you. This kind of woman is mostly a disaster. Be careful." "You are worried when I didn''t find a woman. And you are still worried when I did?" Ji Chuanyi was shocked. "Then you can''t find a married woman. There are so many people on the Original content from N?velDrama.Org. earth, and you can''t find another one you love?" Li Han curled his lips slightly. "Another one? There''s no one as capable as her. I only want her. What can you do?" Ji Chuanyi thought for a moment and tilted his head. "That''s really...plicated." ... On the other side, Tang Zechen drove shu tian directly back to Manshan Vi. On the way, neither of them spoke. Compared to his usual desperate look, Tang Zechen was unusually silent all the time, making Shu Tian a little uncertain. She preferred Tang Zechen to question her rtionship with Li Han angrily, rather than seeing him remain silent like now. Shu Tian couldn''t help but press her feet together. Only when she felt the thin chain on her feet did she feel relieved. When the car reached Manshan Vi, Tang Zechen drove directly into the underground garage. In the dim light, Shu Tian heard the sound of him opening the car''s central control lock, and her heart was held high. The car stalled and everything returned to silence, and she could only hear the almost inaudible breathing of them. Shu Tian swallowed and tried to remain calm. "I want to get out of the car." "Get out of the car? Okay." Tang Zechen''s face was a little creepy under the dim light. "Answer me a few questions and I''ll let you down." Shu Tian looked sideways and stared at him. "What do you want to ask?" "When did you work for the Hanyi Law Office?" Shu Tian blinked, not saying the exact time. "After I decided to divorce you." "How did you pass the interview?" "It''s a normal interview. The Hanyi Law Office recruits twice a year." Tang Zechen didn''t let go of any expression on Shu Tian''s face. He asked again, "Then what''s your rtionship with Li Han?" "It doesn''t matter." Shu Tian withdrew her gaze and spent a few seconds guessing Tang Zechen''s intentions. "Why are you asking this?" Tang Zechen asked her back meaningfully, "What do you think?" Shu Tian''s pupils retracted. If he had just spected, then now she could confirm that Tang Zechen knew about her rtionship with Li Han. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have asked these pointless questions. But how did he know? Shu Tian''s heart beat faster. She was not sure how much Tang Zechen knew. If he really knew her rtionship with Li Han, did he know the purpose of her return this time? Just as Shu Tian was in a panic and having all sorts of thoughts, Tang Zechen''s body suddenly pressed against hers. She was shocked and reached out to push him. "What are you doing?" Tang Zechen wasn''t really prepared to do anything. To be exact, he didn''t dare to do it at all. Just like Shu Tian was specting about him, he was also specting about Shu Tian and Li Han behind her. One should not provoke that man easily. He just looked at Shu Tian. "We''re not divorced yet. You hurt me with a weapon and cheated on me. Do you think you can get away with this marriage?" Shu Tian frowned. "Tang Zechen, divorce is good for both of us. Don''t you want to be separated from me?" She didn''t understand why he was so angry about the divorce several times. She thought it was because of the division of property before, but now she was a little uncertain. Shu Tian was specially surprised when he came to thepany today. Tang Zechen was stunned by her question, but soon he came back to his senses. "It''s too troublesome to divorce you and marry someone else. If that''s the case, why change it?" "Oh," Shu Tian sneered. "What do marriage and wife mean to you? A scene or an identity? This rtionship is over between you and me. I don''t want to continue. Besides, even if it''s acting, you should find an actor who can cooperate." Shu Tian looked up at the man''s dazed face for a moment. "Open the door." ... After leaving the car, Shu Tian hesitated and went into the house. If one wanted to pretend, one should make full disguise. It was not a good idea for her to leave now. The nanny had already prepared dinner. Four dishes and a soup were ced on the table. The white steam rose from the te, adding warmth to the quiet living room. If it had been a year ago, she would have felt very happy. At that time, Tang Zechen rarely came home for dinner. She was happy even if he didn''t do anything when he came back. But now, this man was already removed from her heart, and she felt numb and cold. After going upstairs to take a shower, Shu Tian simply locked herself in the room and took the time to sort out, number, and typeset the documents for the dispatch this afternoon. Time passed little by little, and it was already past nine in the evening to look up again. The highly concentrated workflow actually made her a little thirsty and wanted to go downstairs to get a ss of water to drink. Unexpectedly, when she reached the door of the master bedroom, she heard the moans "Ah, Chen..." Shu Tian stopped and looked into the door unconsciously. She didn''t know if he did it on purpose, but he didn''t even close the door. Experiencing it once again, Shu Tian was no longer in pain. She was neither surprised nor stunned, so she felt less pain. Speaking of which, she was d that she had inadvertently discovered their affair that day. The earlier she discovered, the quicker she could break away from this rtionship. She would rather die a happy death than to be left in the dark like a frog sitting in the warm water in the boiling pan. The two of them were moving wilder and wilder and making disgusting sounds on the bed. Just as Shu Tian was about to leave, the phone in her pocket rang. She subconsciously hid back, but the people in the room still heard her. Tang Zechen, who was lying on Jiang Mengyao, stiffened for a moment, then said fiercely, "Scream louder." He wanted Shu Tian to hear it on purpose, and Jiang Mengyao was naturally willing to cooperate. Shu Tian, who was just outside the door, had already diverted her attention. Looking at the caller''s ID on her phone screen, she quickly walked downstairs to pick it up. "Li Han?" "Come out. I''m at the door of the vi." Conciseness was his usual style. Shu Tian didn''t want to stay here any longer, so she left with his phone and bag. At the entrance of the vi area, a Bentley was parked quietly on the side of the road. Shu Tian ran over quickly, opened the door, and got in the car, panting heavily. "Why are you here?" The man changed his suit into a dark gray high-grade woolen pullover. He wore a pair of casual pants, and his hair was naturallyzily scattered on his forehead. The pine scent on his body was reced by a faint mint smell. He obviously came from home. Li Han looked at the woman''s red face. His eyes were deep, and she didn''t know what he was thinking. After a long time, Shu Tian felt unnatural because of his staring. She raised her hand and touched her face. "What''s wrong?" Only then did Li Han look back. "Nothing." After he finished speaking, he lit a cigarette. The window was lowered in half, and the white smoke drifted out. After a moment of silence, Shu Tian said hesitantly, "Tang Zechen seems to know about our rtionship. He went to thepany today and caused you trouble. I''m sorry." The man''s slender fingers touched the cigarette ash gently and his voice was very faint. "I know." Shu Tian frowned. "You know?" Chapter 38 Chapter 38 He had already noticed that Tang Zechen asked someone to investigate Shu Tian, but he didn''t want to tell Shu Tian about it, and even now he didn''t tell her. Instead of answering, he took a puff of his cigarette and swallowed the smoke. "Put your things away tonight. You don''t have toe over tomorrow." Shu Tian was stunned for a few seconds. "Are the copies I made enough evidence?" "Enough." The man''s sexy thin lips gently spat out a wisp of white mist. She moved closer and looked at him very seriously. "Are you sure?" The moment she left, it was like a showdown with Tang Zechen. It was even more difficult for her to Li Han put out the remaining half of the cigarette and threw it out of the window. His fingers that smelled of tobo lifted her chin. "Why do you ask this? Do you regret it?" Shu Tian bit her lips and let go. "You know it''s impossible." How much she loved Tang Zechen in the past, how much she hated him now, or else she wouldn''t have tried her best to get back at him. Under the dim yellow light in the car, the woman''s face was as white as a smooth jade. Her face was Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. very small. It was only as big as his palm, but her eyes were huge. There were stubbornness and resolution in her watery eyes that could not be easily detected. Her pink lips were brushed by his slightly coarse fingertips. Shu Tian subconsciously pursed her lips and looked nervously at the man in front of her. Li Han suddenly didn''t want to beat around the bush anymore. "Whether the evidence is enough or not is the same with me. I want you back because I don''t want Tang Zechen to have the chance to hold you and stand opposite me next time." His thin lips moved while speaking, and Shu Tian understood his meaning. Her ears warmed up and her eyshes trembled uneasily. "I''m sorry." Apart from apologizing, she didn''t know what else to say and didn''t even dare to figure out the real meaning of this sentence. The man''s eyes fell on her soft lips. "Your apologies are too insincere." Shu Tian didn''t know why he said so, but the moment she looked up, she was kissed hard. The kiss was so sudden that shepletely forgot to react. Obviously, Li Han had no patience. He pried open her lips and his tongue barged in. Shu Tian opened her eyes wide and looked at his handsome face, which had been magnified several times. With his stormy invasion, she even forgot to breathe. It was not until her lungs hurt that she began to resist. Li Han did not continue to pester her. He let go of her and lowered his eyes to see that her beautiful mouth was red because of his kiss, and the corners of her lips were still shining. The depression in his heart was reduced by more than half. She even thought he had spent all night to In fact, he was so unhappy when he thought of Tang Zechen hugging her that he lost patience and drove here tonight. But kissing her was not part of his n. Shu Tian raised her hand and stroked her lips. The two of them had done anything intimate, but Li Han had never kissed her. She didn''t know why. She had a feeling that kissing was very special to him, but why did he suddenly... The atmosphere in the car became a little strange. The man next to her didn''t seem to have any intention of saying anything. Shu Tian was so nervous that she didn''t know where to put her hands and feet. She was about to say something to ease the atmosphere, but she was interrupted by a sudden ringing of the phone. It was Li Han''s phone. The man looked at the Caller Identification and hesitated for a moment before getting out of the car with his phone. "Hello, Chu..." He walked far enough that Shu Tian could not hear him at all, but she still caught the word'' Chu'', a very intimate title. Shu Tian looked at the tall and straight man under the tree, and the soft tone of his voice when he just said "Chu" was lingering. She had never heard Li Han''s such gentle tone, including the way he was talking on the phone with one hand, which was the tenderness she had never seen before. It must be someone important to him to make such a distant and indifferent man so gentle. Shu Tian looked away with some self-deprecation and held her hair behind her ears. What was she looking forward to? Under the dim streetlight, Li Han listened to the soft female voiceing from the microphone from time to time, but he had been looking at the little woman in the passenger seat with her head down, and when he was distracted, he heard what the other party said intermittently and couldn''t remember it. "Han, are you listening?" Unable to get a reply, the woman on the other end of the phone couldn''t help but ask. Li Han came back to his senses and replied lightly. He saw Shu Tian unbuckling her seat belt from the corner of his eye and changed the subject. "Chu, it''s gettingte. I still have work to do. You should rest first." The woman''s voice paused for a moment, then she said thoughtfully, "Then go ahead and do your work first. I''ll contact you when you finish your work. Remember to take care of yourself and not just focus on your work." "Well, good night." After that, Li Han hung up. At the same time, just as Shu Tian got out of the car and was about to leave, her arm was grabbed. She turned around and saw the man''s unhappy expression. "I allowed you to leave?" Shu Tian suppressed the emotion in her eyes and her voice had a little anger. "Haven''t you kissed enough just now?" Li Han''s face darkened. "I asked you to stay to kiss you? Do you think you''re a rare treasure?" Shu Tian curled her lips. "No, I know you don''t care about me." She was not a rare treasure, but the one on the phone must be. Li Han thought she would retort, and he didn''t know what to say after her words. It was almost autumn, and the temperature was not high at night. It was about ten degrees. Shu Tian came out in a hurry and only wore a short sleeve. Li Han looked at her rubbing her arms and went to the car to take a ck cardigan for men and draped it over her shoulder. Shu Tian shrugged her shoulders. "No need, I''m not cold..." Before she could finish speaking, the man suddenly tightened his grip and pulled her into his arms as he tightened the clothes. "If you don''t want me to take off your clothes, just put them on." ...... Shu Tian''s face turned red and she lowered her eyelids not to look at him. She was obedient now, allowing him to zip her up. After putting on the cardigan, Shu Tian intended to leave again. But Li Han''s patience finally ran out before she was about to leave. He took a few steps forward and circled her between his chest and the door. His tone was unkind. "Do you deliberately provoke me?" Shu Tian looked at the anger in his eyes and knew that if she dared to say another unpleasant word, this person would probably make her pay a heavy price. She stammered and shook her head. "No. I dare not provoke you." "..." Dare not? Why did she answer like this? What did he do to her? Why was she so afraid? The man''s face froze again. "I think you have the guts. Why are you acting like a quail with its neck shrunk in front of me now?" Shu Tian deliberately disgusted him. "You''re my patron. How dare I provoke you?" "Patron?" Li Hanughed mockingly, which made Shu Tian''s heart tremble. His long fingers lifted her chin. "Are you serious?" Shu Tian was forced to look at him, fearful, but kept saying, "You said it yourself." The man narrowed his eyes slightly. Okay, the woman was smart enough to use his words to shut him up. Li Han smiled and nodded. "Do you know how I will treat you?" Shu Tian was stunned and did not answer. The coat she had just put on was pulled away by Li Han. Her arms were still in the clothes and Li Han used this to pin her hands behind her back. The white cotton t-shirt was not of good quality, and the cor was slightly pulled by Li Han, revealing her smooth and delicate shoulders, along with the ck bra straps. Feeling cold, Shu Tian was shocked and struggled as hard as she could. "What are you going to do?!" Chapter 39 Chapter 39 Li Han pinched her cheek so that she could clearly see the sharpness in his eyes. "You have to satisfy your owner whenever he wants it. I''m your owner. Do you understand?" As he spoke, his cold broad palms touched her skin, which made Shu Tian shiver. "It''s outside. Li Han, are you crazy? Others will see us!" Although this man was lustful, in Shu Tian''s heart, he was definitely not a man who would act recklessly. But now... "So what if others see us?" Shu Tian widened her eyes and looked at him in disbelief, as if she had heard something wrong. "Calm down, okay? Don''t do this. Please..." The man didn''t seem to hear her beg for mercy. He kept moving and continued to mess with her. Shu Tian resisted until she lost all her strength. Fortunately, he was still rational. When he saw that her eyes were slightly red, his strong hands let go of her and he did not really do anything to her. But his sharp eyes kept staring at her. "Can you stand it if I really treat you in that way?" Only then did Shu Tian understand why he suddenly lost his temper. It turned out that it was because of what she said just now, but was she wrong? ording to their rtionship, wasn''t he her owner? The man narrowed his eyes slightly, measured her evasive gaze, and said meaningfully, "Because of that phone call just now?" A trace of panic shed through Shu Tian''s eyes. She looked away unnaturally and did not look at his threatening gaze. "I was just afraid that someone would see us if they came out." Li Han sneered disdainfully and patted her on the cheek twice. It didn''t hurt but it was more like flirting. "At this time, in this ce, tell me who wille out, hmm?" Shu Tian looked around silently. It was quiet. Not to mention people, there wasn''t even a ghost... "Why don''t you ask me yourself if you care about it so much?" Li Han looked at her blushing face and said seriously, "You''re afraid of me." It was not a question, but a statement. Shu Tian''s eyes flickered. They were brighter than the stars in the sky under the streetmp, almost making Li Han couldn''t help but kiss her. "... So-so." After a long time, Shu Tian could only say two words. She was not very afraid of him, but she would be nervous and restrained in the face of Li Han. Perhaps it was their rtionship that put pressure on her, which made her a little weak. "You don''t have to be afraid of me." The man''s deep voice came. Shu Tian was stunned and looked at him. "What?" "Even if everyone is afraid of me, you don''t have to be afraid of me." Li Han looked at her dazed look. Her hair was a little messy from his rubbing just now, which looked fluffy under the light, but it was a little cute. He raised his lips slightly, "Do you really regard me as a beast? Do you think me a person who would leave directly after having sex?" "..." Shu Tian quickly looked away. What a bad metaphor! How could she not be shy when hearing this? "Shu Tian." In the quiet night, the man''s voice was especially pleasant. Shu Tian replied softly, "Hmm?" "You don''t have to be afraid of me, understand?" He repeated, letting go of her chin as he spoke, then lit a cigarette again and took a slow puff. Shu Tian nodded vaguely. He meant that he wouldn''t hurt her, right? In fact, she believed him. He was always by her side when she was in a dilemma. Besides, if he really wanted to do anything to her, he didn''t have to try so hard. He could make it easily. But he didn''t. The moonlight tonight was too good, falling on the shoulders of two people. Shu Tian looked up at the man''s deep facial features and couldn''t help but ask, "Li Han, have you ever regretted helping me like this?" Shu Tian felt that it was already very awkward that Tang Zechen went to Hanyi Law Office today. He might start to make a noise, which would definitely affect Li Han''s reputation. Even if it didn''t turn into a joke, it was really scary. She had thought that Li Han would mind it, but he did not hesitate to answer her. "I never do anything I regret." He raised his hand and stroked the woman''s delicate cheeks. He leaned forward and breathed hot air in her ear. "You''re an exception, but I don''t regret it." ... That night, Shu Tian hardly slept soundly. When she returned to the vi andy on the bed, what Li Han had said to her sounded in her ears again and again. She covered her head with the quilt and her heart was in a mess. The only thing she could be sure of was that this man named Li Han impressed her more and more and lingered in her heart. The next morning, Shu Tian got up earlier than six o''clock, packed her things, and left before Tang Zechen and Jiang Mengyao got up. It was only eight o''clock when she arrived at thew firm, half an hour before work time. Shu Tian printed out the documents that she had sorted outst night and struggled for a while before walking to the door of Ye Junting''s office. She turned the doorknob, but the office door was locked. It couldn''t be opened. She looked down and saw a narrow gap between the floor and the door, so she squatted down and slowly stuffed the documents. "What are you doing?" Behind her, a clear male voice suddenly sounded. Shu Tian was startled, almost kneeling on the ground. She stood up quickly, turned around and saw Ye Junting''s expressionless face. She subconsciously put her hands behind her back. "No... Nothing. The thing fell to the ground. I''m picking it up." Ye Junting obviously wouldn''t believe her clumsy lie and reached out to her. "Give them to me." Shu Tian pretended to be stupid. "What?" "The things in your hand." Seeing what she was going to say, Ye Junting frowned. "Don''t make me say it again." "..." Shu Tian took a deep breath and handed him all the documents. Ye Junting looked over page by page and finally stopped at the ck words on thest page. After browsing for a moment, he picked out the page with his slender fingers and ced it in front of her. He looked at Shu Tian''s slightly flushed face. "What is this?" "A self-criticism letter..." Shu Tian answered in a low voice. The man raised his eyebrows slightly, read again, and read one of the lines aloud, "I should inform you in advance when I ask for leave. In view of the bad behaviorst time, I made a written guarantee that I would never do it again." "Yes..." Shu Tian lowered her head more, and she felt crazy in her heart. He could look over it quietly but he still had to read it aloud. She was ashamed of it... Ye Junting curled his lips silently. "You came to thepany so early just to send me the documents and a self-criticism letter?" Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. Shu Tian paused for a moment and shook her head honestly. "No, I got up early today, just in time to bring the documents over." As she spoke, Ye Junting, who was standing in front of her, did not speak for a long time. Just as Shu Tian could not help but look up, a light force suddenly hit her forehead. With a "st'', the documents were rolled into a tube shape and knocked on her. "You''re honest." Shu Tian touched the ce where she was hit. "Lawyer Ye, do you forgive me now?" Ye Junting chuckled. "Don''t do it again. In the future, you must treat your work seriously." Shu Tian heaved a sigh of relief. "I see." Ye Junting waved his hand. "Get busy." Seeing that he was going in, Shu Tian quickly stepped forward and said, "By the way, Lawyer Ye, there''s something else..." Chapter 40 Chapter 40 Ye Junting stopped. "What?" "It seems that you were misunderstood because of me that day. If there are any bad rumors, I hope you don''t take them to heart." Shu Tian was a little embarrassed to say this in person. But Ye Junting was much more generous. "It doesn''t matter. If you want to fight back these rumors beautifully, try to be stronger." Shu Tian''s eyes sparkled. "Thank you, Lawyer Ye." Ye Junting looked at the woman''s smiling face. Her rosy lips, pretty white teeth, and sweet dimples made her more attractive. He had been in contact with Shu Tian a few times, and it was the first time he had seen her smile so bright. It was like a branch soaked in spring rain, which made people feel warm and fresh in their hearts. "Lawyer Ye?" Ye Junting regained his senses and looked away from her face. He coughed softly. "You''re wee. Work hard." Original content from N?velDrama.Org. After that, without waiting for Shu Tian''s reply, he turned back and entered the office. He shut the door with a snap. Shu Tian stood outside the door, rubbed her nose, and left in confusion. She did not know that all of this had been seen by Meng Yu, who was hiding in the corner behind her. ... After a busy morning, Li Han was not at thepany during lunchtime. Shu Tian didn''t know where he went, but she finally didn''t have to hurry to eat and take time to apany him. She went downstairs to the coffee shop after lunch with Zhang Rui''er. The two of them stood at the bar and waited. When the coffee was finally ready, Shu Tian took it from the waiter. But just at this time, she was hit by a powerful force, which exactly touched her arm. Shu Tian was unprepared. The coffee in her hand spilled out and sshed on the ground and the back of her hand. "Ah!" She couldn''t help but cry out in pain. Zhang Rui''er, who was standing by the side, was startled. She took a step forward and looked at the back of her hand, which was burning red. "Are you okay?" Her fair and tender skin immediately turned light red by the heat, and there was a burning pain on the wound. Later, she must apply some ointment, or the wound would definitely blister. Shu Tian frowned slightly. "I''m all right." Zhang Rui''er turned back and looked at the person behind her, who looked a little familiar. When she took a closer look, she saw that woman was a colleague of thepany, but their positions were different, so they didn''t usually deal with each other. She swallowed her words and tried to be a little more polite. "Be careful. How could you run into her when there''s only two of us in front of you?" She thought that the other party would at least apologize, but Meng Yu didn''t feel guilty at all. She nced at the back of Shu Tian''s hand. "Sorry, I didn''t notice you." Didn''t notice her? Zhang Rui''er was furious. "You didn''t notice the two standing in front of you, then what are you looking at?" "Oh, I didn''t mean to. You don''t have to exaggerate." Meng Yu nced at the spilled coffee. "Well, I''ll buy you another cup." Zhang Rui''er was shocked by her rightful attitude. "It''s not about a cup of coffee. You hit a guy and you take this attitude. Where''s your upbringing?" "I didn''t hit you. Why are you so mad?" After Meng Yu finished speaking, she looked at Shu Tian and muttered, "Someone is just trying to curry favor..." Before Zhang Rui''er could react, Shu Tian, who had been silent, reached out to stop her and looked at Meng Yu. "Did you hit me on purpose?" Although she was asking her, there was a certainty in her tone that made people not dare to lie easily. Meng Yu panicked for a few seconds but soon calmed down. "How is that possible? I really didn''t notice you." "Really?" Shu Tian stopped questioning her and suddenly asked, "What''s your name?" Meng Yu was a little confused, but she still said her name. "My name is Meng Yu." She had thought that Shu Tian would argue with her and had already thought of the words to retaliate, but why didn''t she seem to have any reaction at all? Could it be that she saw that Meng Yu had deliberately bumped into her and asked the name for revenge? Meng Yu remembered the rumors in thepany. If this Shu Tian really had a backer, would she deliberately make things hard for her? Meng Yu suddenly regretted her impulsiveness, but Shu Tian didn''t say anything. She just left a faint "I see." and turned to leave. Zhang Rui''er followed her out of the coffee shop, not understanding what she was doing. "Shu Tian, that''s it?" "Or else, fight with her?" Shu Tian looked at her with amusement. Zhang Rui''er was furious. "That Meng Yu, have you ever offended her? I think she did it on purpose!" "I don''t even know her, let alone offend her." Shu Tian said helplessly. "I guess it''s because she doesn''t like me." Although Zhang Rui''er was furious, she understood that they were after all colleagues in the same Shu Tian''s eyes narrowed slightly. " To scare her." Zhang Rui''er was stunned for a moment, then smiled. "You''re scheming." ... At 3 p.m. in the afternoon, Ye Junting called Shu Tian to the office and asked her to prepare for the meeting with the head of the defendant''spany in the evening. After Shu Tian went back, she went through the case again. Although she didn''t reach the extent of reciting it backward fluently, she was familiar with the details. Before she set off, she hesitated for a long time and decided to tell Li Han so that he wouldn''t be angry when he returned home at eight in the evening. Anyway, it would be hard for her if he lost his temper. However, no one answered the call for a long time. She called again but still, no one answered. Thinking that he might be busy with work, Shu Tian did not continue to call but sent him a text message. The moment she put her phone away, a ck Porsche suddenly stopped in front of her. Shu Tian scanned the logo on the rear of the car, which showed the car was undoubtedly top-of-the-range. The car was worth at least two million yuan, but as a topwyer from the Hanyi Law Office, it was no surprise that Ye Junting could possess it. The window was rolled down, revealing the man''s beautiful eyes. "Get in the car." Shu Tian opened the door and sat in. The two of them went to their destination together. The other party booked the meeting ce at an upscale membership tea house next to a scenicke in the city. Shu Tian and Tang Zechen had been there once before, and the environment was excellent. The price of tea was ten thousand and higher. Half an hourter, the car stopped. Ye Junting unbuckled his seat belt and looked at her. "Let''s go." Shu Tian was still nervous. "Lawyer Ye, do I need to say something when I go in?" "What do you want to say?" "...I don''t know either." Ye Junting smiled. "You don''t have to be nervous. I asked you toe mainly for the purpose of learning. There''s no need to be too stressed." Shu Tian nodded and cheered herself up in her heart. Ye Junting nced at the back of her red hand and frowned. "What happened to your hand?" Shu Tian didn''t say too much. "It was burnt by ident. No big deal." "Did you apply the ointment?" Shu Tian nodded. "Yes." "Girls should be more careful. It''s not good to have scars on your body." This didn''t sound like what Ye Junting would say. Shu Tian smiled awkwardly. "Thank you." After the two of them got out of the car, a waiter who was already waiting at the door of the tea house led them into the private room. As soon as the door opened, Shu Tian was stunned when she saw the man sitting there. Obviously, he also noticed her gaze. After greeting Ye Junting, he looked at Shu Tian with a half-smile. "Long time no see, Miss Shu." Chapter 41 Chapter 41 Shu Tian''s hand, which was hanging by her side, tightened a little. She looked nervous. "Hello, Mr. Fan." Ye Junting cast an inquiring gaze and his eyes darkened. "It seems that Mr. Fan and my assistant are old acquaintances?" Fan Ming pretended tough heartily and waved his hand. "Not really. I saw her a few times when she was in college, but..." At this point, Fan Ming paused and looked at Shu Tian meaningfully. Shu Tian didn''t know what he meant and simply said, "It''s not a good memory." Fan Ming''s expression changed slightly, but he still wore a fake smile. "Yes, but it''s all over." The atmosphere in the private room became a little delicate because of this inexplicable conversation. Who was Ye Junting? He was an acutewyer. He sensed that the topic was not friendly, and motioned for Fan Ming to take a seat. "Since you know each other, I won''t make any more introductions. Mr. Fan, please sit down." Ye Junting and Fan Ming quickly got to the point. Shu Tian sat next to Ye Junting. As he said, she didn''t need to say anything at all. From time to time, she helped him record what Fan Ming said and some details. As the legal representative of Baoyou Group, Fan Ming was merely negotiating further on Mr. Li''s maximum reconciliation. "Lawyer Ye, you also know that although Li Wei has worked for Baoyou Group for half his life, he is just an exploration agent and not a worker of management. You may feel I am heartless by saying this. But in today''s economic society, everything should take benefits and values into consideration. He wants more than one million yuan ofpenstion. It''s not impossible if we negotiate properly. But now the thing is in a mess, and it''s not easy for the group to deal with it." Fan Ming made the tea as he said. His slightly swollen face was smiling and greasy as if he was saying something very easy. When Shu Tian thought of Li Wei''s broken finger, the polite smile on her face almost disappeared. Becauseof this, Li Wei was likely to be ruined for the rest of his life. However, it seemed that it was just an insignificant thing ording to what Fan Ming said. Shu Tian couldn''t help but feel a little angry. On the contrary, Ye Junting didn''t have any reaction. He just listened to Fan Ming calmly and said slowly, "Mr. Fan, I understand what you said. The group has its own position, but ----" Ye Junting took a sip of tea and put down the cup. "You should know very well whetherpensating one million yuan is reasonable or not." Fan Ming squinted with his small eyes behind the lenses and asked Ye Junting, pretending to be puzzled, "Lawyer Ye, What do you mean?" The man tapped on the table with his long finger. "I mean that thispensation, no matter what the group''s position is, is within reasonable limits and must be paid." If what they said just now could only be considered as official words, Ye Junting had already expressed his position and preparation by saying this sentence. As he finished speaking, Fan Ming no longer looked as confident as before and smiled awkwardly. "Haha, Lawyer Ye really hit the right nail on the head. That''s why we''re sitting here. I mean, the Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. caused a lot of negative impact on the group. After we pay thepensation, we still need Li Wei to cooperate with us in this respect." "Then how do you want Mr. Li to cooperate with you?" Shu Tian couldn''t help but ask. The clear voice broke in, causing both of them to be stunned. Ye Junting looked at the woman beside him. Her clear eyes were now looking at Fan Ming sitting across from her seriously. Fan Ming reached out to help the sses on the bridge of his nose. "We also know about Li Wei''s life. He has a daughter who is still in junior high school, and his family condition is not very good. His single father is counting on him to provide for the elderly and raise a child alone. Now he makes things like this because he wants money. One million yuan is nothing to Baoyou Group. Our only request is that after thepensation is paid, Li Wei should obey our requirements regarding this matter." "Your requirements..." Shu Tian repeated and closed the memo used to record in the phone. "Mr. Fan, we can only ensure that Mr. Li will describe oding to the truth. As for your so-called requirements, we, aswyers, have no right to interfere." "Of course." Fan Ming changed the subject. "But we came out with the aim of negotiating today. Let''s not speak these official words, shall we?" "You mean..." Before Shu Tian could finish speaking, Ye Junting interrupted her. "If this is Mr. Fan''s current condition, we need to negotiate with the party before we can inform you of the results." Fan Ming nodded happily. "No problem. Take your time. I''ll wait for news from Lawyer Ye." Shu Tian frowned, lowered her eyes and picked up the teacup on the table. Her fingers tightened secretly. She drank up the best Longjing green tea in one gulp. The warm liquid flowed down her throat, across her esophagus and made her whole body warm, but there was no warmth in her heart. Ye Junting talked to Fan Ming about some more questions. Before he left, Fan Ming suddenly looked at Shu Tian. A light shed in his eyes behind the sses. "I heard that Miss Shu was married. I didn''t have time to attend your wedding ceremony at that time. Let''s have dinner together if there is a chance." Ye Junting looked at her in surprise. Shu Tian''s eyes darkened and her tone changed. "Don''t bother Mr. Fan about my personal matters." Fan Mingughed and didn''t care that Shu Tian didn''t respect him at all. "Like father, like son. I didn''t expect Miss Shu to be awyer. Maybe there will be many opportunities to meet you in the future. Miss Shu, please advise." Shu Tian pursed her pink lips and quickly let go. "Mr. Fan is a senior. I don''t dare to give you advice." Fan Ming didn''t say anything. He just looked at her and smiled. He turned around and walked out of the room with his briefcase. Shu Tian stared at the man''s back as he left, standing there in a daze until he waspletely out of sight. Ye Junting raised his eyebrows and stepped forward to block her eyes. "Did you know Fan Ming before?" Shu Tian shook her head. After shaking her head, she felt that something was wrong. "I think I know him. He was in charge of my father''s case before. There was no other intersection between us." "Your father?" "Yes." Thinking of the past, Shu Tian''s heart was filled with indescribable uneasiness. Thinking of the conversation just now, she couldn''t help but ask him, "Lawyer Ye, why didn''t you directly reject Fan Ming''s offer just now?" Ye Junting''s eyes became serious. "We''re justwyers. We''re in charge of thewsuit. As for how to make a decision, it''s up to the parties to decide." The implication was that if Li Wei could ept Fan Ming''s offer, there was a good chance that the two would reconcile, even if it was wrong. If Li Wei really agreed, it would mean that Baoyou Group used more than a million yuan to buy a statement that deviated from the truth. What was the difference between this and spending money to keep it a secret? But this depended on Li Wei''s choices, and they, aswyers, had no right to interfere. Shu Tian understood everything, but she still couldn''t get over it. "I''m going to the bathroom." As she spoke, she walked out. Before she could reach the door, Ye Junting suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist. "Are you married?" Chapter 42 Chapter 42 Shu Tian paused and answered the truth, "Yes." After a few seconds of silence, Ye Junting loosened his grip on her wrist. His eyes were so deep that she could not see his emotions clearly. "Go." Shu Tian quickly walked out of the private room, went into the bathroom, turned on the tap, wet the tissue and pped it on her forehead. Fan Ming''s words were all in her mind. Back then, her father was investigated and punished for approving a business on the grounds of corruption and bribery. At that time, the cooperation partner was Baoyou Group, but Baoyou Group was not asrge as it was now. That was their first year of joint cooperation with the government. Shu Tian didn''t know the details. All he knew was that Shu Changlei had been sentenced to 13 years by the double ruling. His family spent a lot of money to bail him out. With such a prison record, it was very difficult for him to find a job. His friends also avoided him. Shu Changlei could only survive by running a small retail business. Speaking of corruption, in Shu Tian''s impression, she had never felt that her family was particrly rich. They just had a normal well-off life. But what she didn''t expect was that Fan Ming, who acted as Shu Changlei''swyer in the case back then, actually became the legal representative of Baoyou Group. As the opposite party, no matter how negligent Baoyou Group was, it would not choose to use such a person. Moreover, it was a huge matter back then. Was the boss of Baoyou Group so lenient? Shu Tian always felt strange. It must beplicated. She wanted to ask her fatherter. Shu Tian was lost in thought when the phone in her pocket vibrated. She took it out and saw that it was Tang Zechen. She picked it up. "Hello." "Where are you?" The man''s calm voice came from the microphone. Shu Tian took the wet tissue off her forehead and threw it into the trash can. "I''m attending a social engagement." "Let''s meet when you''re done." "If you have anything to say, say it on the phone. We may not be able to meet in time." Most importantly, Shu Tian didn''t want to see him now. The other party pondered for a moment, then spoke again after a long time. "You want to talk about divorce, so let''s sit down and talk." Shu Tian paused and was a little wary of Tang Zechen''s sudden change of attitude. "Why did you suddenlye to your senses?" "Mengyao is pregnant." Shu Tian was still shocked even if she was mentally prepared. Jiang Mengyao was pregnant... She couldn''t help but think of Liu Lifang. Shu Tian knew best how much she wanted to have a grandson. Back then, when she married Tang Zechen, she had been urged to get pregnant from the moment they got married. Now, Liu Lifang finally got what she wanted. Not for Jiang Mengyao, but for her grandson, Liu Lifang would agree to the divorce. Shu Tian thought that her heart would ache more or less, but she sadly realized that apart from the initial surprise, she was much calmer than she thought. Her emotions had long been consumed by Tang Zechen''s pestering. "Come out. I''ve booked a room in Hongding Club, A301. Let''s make it clear face to face." ... Aftering out of the bathroom, Ye Junting waited for her at the entrance of the tea house. The man Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. was dressed in formal suit. He stood under the bright light. He was tall and straight with long legs, which made him very eye-catching. asionally, a young waiter passed by and couldn''t help but take a few more nces at him. Seeing Shu Tianing over, Ye Junting put away the phone in his palm and said, "I''ll send you back." "No need. I have to go somewhere else." Ye Junting''s deep eyes fell on her face. "A date?" "No." Shu Tian sighed helplessly. "I''m going to discuss about divorce." "Divorce?" Ye Junting was shocked again. "How old are you?" "I''m twenty-four." Shu Tian knew what he was thinking. She was afraid that the atmosphere would be awkward, so she even made a joke of herself. "When I got married, others were single. When I divorced, others were still single. It was such a waste of time." Ye Junting didn''t expect her to be in the mood to tease herself. Knowing that it was inconvenient for her to talk about her personal affairs in front of him, he stopped forcing her. "Go ahead. If there''s anything..." Shu Tian didn''t hear clearly. "What?" Ye Junting waved his phone at her. "Call me if you need anything." Shu Tian was surprised and felt that his words were a little strange, but looking at Ye Junting''s calm eyes, she felt that she was overthinking and answered, "Okay." ... Hongding Club was one of the more famous entertainment clubs in the city. It is famous for its high consumption. A booth in the hall costed tens of thousands of dors a night, let alone a VIP room. A mostmon bottle of wine was worth more than ten thousand yuan. However, only members coulde in and spend. If you wanted to be a member here, you had to pass a certain background check. When Shu Tian entered the times, no one stopped her. It was probably because Tang Zechen had told the manager in advance to let her in. Shu Tian followed Tang Zechen''s message to room A301. She pushed the door open and went in without seeing anyone else. The door panel was so soundproof that she could not hear the noise outside. Shu Tian found Tang Zechen''s number and dialed it. His line was busy. She walked to the sofa and sat down. She saw the bottles and sses on the table. Did he go to the bathroom? There was a strange smell in the room. Shu Tian wrinkled her nose and didn''t take it to heart. It was probably the smoke mixed with the smell of alcohol, which was a little pungent. After waiting for more than ten minutes, Tang Zechen was still nowhere to be seen. Shu Tian looked around the room and suddenly felt something was wrong. She stood up and wanted to walk out, but just as she stood up, she was dizzy. Her strength seemed to have been taken away, and she stood for less than two seconds before falling back into the sofa. Shu Tian held the sofa and tried to stand up again, but she could not exert any strength at all. It was as if a few tons of stone had been pressed on her head, making it difficult for her to even bnce herself. She realized that it was not good and forced herself to take out a wet towel from her bag and cover her nose and mouth. Before she could brace herself of this impact, the door of the private room was once again opened from the outside. The two men came in were wearing ck jackets and ck pants, and she was too dizzy that she could not see their faces clearly. However, Shu Tian could tell by their outlines that neither of them was Tang Zechen! That''s not good! It was a trap. After the two men came in, they drove her out without a word. Shu Tian struggled desperately, but her struggle was like a scratch to the men, and it didn''t work at all. Shu Tian was taken to the third floor of the Hongding Club, which was full of business suites. It was self-evident what they were used for. With a click, the room card swiped open the door. Seeing that she was about to be carried in, she suddenly burst out in despair, biting one man''s arm and kicking another in the crotch at the same time. The two of them were unprepared and suddenly let go of their hands. Shu Tian took advantage of this gap to open the door and run out. Her legs were feeble and she staggered out while bracing the wall, like a headless fly. The two of them came back to their senses and chased after her. Shu Tian knew that they were getting closer and closer without looking back. The elevator... Was right in front! Perhaps God had helped her. As soon as Shu Tian ran in front of the elevator, the door opened in front of her. She didn''t even have time to look up and barge straight in. In a panic, she suddenly bumped into someone''s chest¡ª She didn''t even have time to apologize. "Move, move!". Just as she reached out to press the button to close the door, someone suddenly grabbed her wrist and the man''s deep voice was tinged with bone-chilling coldness. "Shu Tian?" Chapter 43 Chapter 43 Shu Tian was afraid that the two men behind would catch up with her, but she couldn''t break free from Li Han''s grip. The moment she raised her eyes, she bumped into a pair of deep ck eyes, which contained the power to calm her down. Tears welled up in her eyes after she kept back tears all night. She choked up and couldn''t say a Without asking what happened, Li Han knew what was going on with these two words. Li Han frowned fiercely and looked at her small and fair face, which was covered with tears. His heart ached as if gripped by a pair of invisible hands. He raised his hand to wipe away her tears and the temperature of her tears went all the way into his heart. "Don''t be afraid." As he spoke, Shu Tian, who had already calmed down, cried even more fiercely. She was so frightened that her tears brushed down. It was apletely physiological reaction, and she couldn''t stop even if she wanted to. Her body trembled uncontrobly. Li Han felt severe pain in his heart and pulled her into his arms, letting her stand steadily against his body. The shirt on his chest was soon wet with tears, which showed how fierce she was crying. The temperature woke up the bloodthirsty that had been sleeping in his body for many years. For many years, he had not felt so agitated. At this moment, the two people chasing behind happened to appear at the elevator door. "Bitch, how dare you run? I will..." Before he could finish speaking, the man suddenly shut up and looked at them in surprise for he did not expect anyone to appear. At one point, the two men were at a disadvantage. In less than two seconds, they looked at each other and ran away. Li Han winked at the bodyguard behind him. "Go after them." Within fifteen meters, the men who were still running were already pressed to the ground. Li Han walked over with the little woman in his arms and looked down at the two of them. His eyes were serious and his whole body exuded a frightening aura. It seemed that even the air had been frozen to pieces, which made people scared. The men''s faces were stepped on by the bodyguard, and the flesh on their faces was squeezed together in a funny way. One of them was a little afraid of Li Han''s oppressive eyes, but he still shouted, "Who are you? I tell you, don''t meddle with it!" Hearing the man''s vicious words, Shu Tian could not help but tremble with fear. Sensing her tremble, Li Han freed a hand to caress her back, and his voice was ever more patient and gentle. "Tell me what he did to you?" Shu Tian shook her head and was a little incoherent after the shock. "They... wanted to bring me into the room. I... I don''t know what happened. I don''t have the strength..." Li Han looked at her carefully and did not see any obvious wounds. He took off his coat and draped it over her shoulder. He put her in the corner behind him. "Good girl, stay by yourself for a while." Shu Tian buried her face in the man''s clothes, and she smelled the familiar scent. Tears welled up in her eyes again. If she hadn''t met him today, she didn''t know what would have happened. Li Han unhurriedly unbuttoned his cuffs and rolled up his shirt sleeves to reveal his muscr, wheat- colored arms. He walked up to the two men. Partly because they were lying on the ground, the two of them felt that Li Han was extremely tall, with a face as cold as ice and eyes as deep as an abyss. That he standing there made their hearts tremble with fear. Li Han nced coldly at the two of them. "Who was behind the scene, huh?" The two of them were secretly shocked, but one of them still said stubbornly, "She sat alone in the private room with the door open. Who knows what she was going to do? She swooped down on us as soon as we entered. It''s stupid to reject the woman who is seducing you." Hearing this, Li Han kicked the man in the stomach with the sound of poof. The man must be hurt. His clean business shoes were crushed a few times. "Watch yournguage." "Help!" The man cried out in pain. "Where''s the manager? Is anyone in charge?" As he finished speaking, azy male voice came from not far away. "Who''s looking for the manager?" Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Shu Tian revealed half of her face and looked around. The man was in a dark purple satin suit with a deep Vcor and a ck shirt underneath. The crystal buttons on his suit reflected a sharp light, but the light was notparable to the man''s stunning face. If Li Han was unfathomable, then the one who came over was the opposite. "Boss Pei." A waiter passed by and greeted him respectfully. The man waved his hand casually and walked straight over. His long and narrow eyes were full of charm. Waiting for the show, he said jokingly, "Han, everything goes well without you. Once you appear, there was such a big fight. I''m very afraid!" Li Han was obviously not in the mood to make a joke, and his toes tightened a little. "Your club is getting sleazier. Let any dog in." The man on the ground saw the person''s face clearly and his eyes widened. "Pei... Pei Yu?" The owner of Hongding Club was a man of influence and power. His father, Pei Zhangyu, started his business in the oil industry and had power both in the government and in the underworld. The Pei Family was possessed of great wealth so no one dared to provoke Pei Yu. But now that Pei Yu was here, and he greeted Li Han as his acquaintance. The man was desperate because he guessed that Li Han was definitely kind of somebody. Pei Yu raised his eyebrows when he heard someone calling his name. "You called me?" The man swallowed and are not to answer because he could not figure out what Pei Yu meant. "Are we close?" After Pei Yu finished speaking, the other man immediately exined, "Boss Pei, we are sorry for being too ignorant to recognize your friend. We won''t dare to do it again. Please let us go!" Pei Yu pretended to be regretful and shook his head. He raised his hand to wipe the dust on his clothes that did not exist at all. "It''s not up to me." Li Han raised his toes, and the shiny custom-made leather shoes shone with a cold light. He kicked at the dent between the man''s corbones suddenly with his sharp tip of the shoe. This position... There came a tearing scream. Pei Yu tutted and turned his eyes away. He deserved it once he dared to provoke Li Han. "I confess! I confess!" Looking at hispanion being tortured, the other man shouted out unbearably, "Tang Zechen asked us to drug this woman!" The quiet corridor echoed with the shouts of men. Even though Shu Tian had expected this, she still had goosebumps when she heard the shouts. Tang Zechen was trying to force her to death that he even resorted to such shameless methods. Even if he had no feelings, he could not do such a thing with a little humanity. Li Han narrowed his eyes slightly, and a dangerous light shed through his eyes. "What about after drugging her?" "Take a picture of her and..." The man couldn''t help but keep his voice down and muttered, "He ordered one of us to take nude photos and the other..." Even if he didn''t say the rest, Li Han could guess that. His already gloomy handsome face turned darker. Pei Yu couldn''t help but look over to Shu Tian. The woman''s face was half-covered by his clothes. She was about 1.65 meters, and she was slender. Tang Zechen set such a weak woman up. Such a beast! Chapter 44 Chapter 44 "Go back and tell your master that he dosen''t have the ability to touch someone who is under my protection!" After saying that, Li Han kicked the man unconscious. Those two who were lively just now were instantly dragged away like dead dogs. Li Han strode towards Shu Tian, and Pei Yu followed after him. Pei Yu looked curiously at her. "Miss, are you alright?" After all, this was on his territory. Pei Yu was a little embarrassed as something like this happened on his own territory. Shu Tian showed her face and said in a low voice, "I''m okay." After Pei Yu saw her clearly, his eyes lit up. The woman had very fair skin. He didn''t know if it was the cause of over-fright, her face was a little too pale. Her eyes took up one-third of her palm-sized face. After crying, her nose turned red. Though she looked pitiful, that still couldn''t harm her original tenderness of beauty. Obviously, she was beautiful and could also stand careful appreciation. Pei Yu bumped into Li Han''s shoulder and said in a voice that only they could hear, "Nice!" Li Han wrapped her in his arms and blocked Pei Yu''s sight. "Take care of them. We are leaving now." Pei Yu did not continue to mess around with him and shouted at his back, "Do you need me to inform Ling Junze and let him take a look?" He didn''t even look back, "No need." ... After leaving Hongding Club, Shu Tian was carried to the car in Li Han''s arms. Li Han helped her adjust the seat and then looked up at her. He angrily stared at her with his dark eyes. The distance between them was so close that Shu Tian could smell the faint scent of pine on his body. It was unusually quiet in the car. A few minutes passed, neither of them spoke and the atmosphere remained deadlocked. Li Han looked at the little woman with her head hanging down in front of him, and the anger in his heart could not be suppressed. He pinched her chin with his big hand and his voice loweredpletely. "Exin to me why you were here." Shu Tian opened her mouth. Thinking of the matter with Tang Zechen and realizing her mistake, her voice softened. "Tang Zechen sent me a message, saying he wanted to talk about the divorce..." Li han sneered. "You have no brain?" Shu Tian retorted in a low voice. "I didn''t believe him until he said Jiang Mengyao was pregnant. Otherwise, I wouldn''t havee over." Undoubtedly, Tang Zechen knew her well. All these years living together allowed him to find Shu Tian''s weakness, and the only thing he needed to do was to say the right thing. The premise was that Shu Tian did not expect that he could even do such a thing. "Since youe, you just believe that he won''t do anything to you." Li Han ignored her and breathed with anger. "What kind of ce is Hongding?You jiuste because he asked. Do you really not know or still have a fantasy?" "I didn''t!" Shu Tian''s face was burning for his words. She could endure anything but other''s Original content from N?velDrama.Org. misunderstanding. Especially in this situation, it would only make her feel ashamed. "I thought he..." "What did you think?" Li Han interrupted her mockingly, with his tone full of disdain. "You thought he''ll love you for the rest of his life, and how did that go?" Li Han''s words were undoubtedly sprinkling with another handful of salt on Shu Tian''s wound that had not yet healed. The crack in Shu Tian''s heart hurt even more than when she learned that Tang Zechen was plotting against her. She didn''t expect anyone to understand her situation. She just wanted to not deepen her scar. She thought Li Han could understand her position more or less, but reality pped her in the face again. She looked away and breathed slightly. Her eyes were red, but she did not cry out. "Yes, I am blind and I deserve it. I brought all this on myself, okay?" Li Han didn''t mean that. It''s just seeing her in danger in Hongding, and he got worried about her and he was only speaking without thinking in anger. But he couldn''t open his mouth to apologize. Stalemate for a moment, looking at the tears that the woman was about to shed, Li Han finally gave in. His big palm moved from her small chin to the back of her neck, and his thumb touched the delicate skin with a soothing force. "I didn''t say that you deserve it. I''ll take care of Tang Zechen for you. Shu Tian, you''re an adult. You have to consider the consequences before you act. If I didn''t happen to show up today, what would you do?" Shu Tian avoided his warm palm. "I did have a failed marriage. After giving everything to him, my ex- husband still did this to me. It''s normal for you to look down on me." Seeing that she couldn''t understand him, Li Han increased the force in his hand and brought her forward a little. His dark eyes stared at her. "If I didn''t want to care about you, I would have pushed you away when you bumped into me in the elevator ." If it weren''t that he heared her voice, whether the person was alive or dead, he wouldn''t have taken another look. But when he found out it was her, looking at her tear-stained face and feeling her trembling body, his hard heart softened little by little. He hadn''t used force for years, but today he made an exception for her. Only he could touch his things. "Tell me in advance if you need anything in the future." The man said lightly. Shu Tian''s eyshes fluttered a few times, and her stubborn voice was not devoid of grievance. "I told you. I called you before I came, but you didn''t answer." Li Han frowned even tighter. He remembered that he had gone out to attend a municipal meeting today, and his private phone had been kept on silent mode all the time. After the meeting, he arrived in Hongding before he could check his phone. He took out his phone and saw two missed calls and a text message sent by Shu Tian as expected. It was as if his heart had been scratched which was a little painful and itchy. A strange feeling shed by. Guilt? Frustration? Or regret? None of those felt right. It was more of pity. If he received the call, he would never let Shu Tiane alone, and nothing else would happen. The man frowned. "This won''t happen again." Shu Tian raised her eyelids and looked at him, thinking that she had heard him wrong, but when she met the man''s serious eyes, she knew that she had heard right. He was actually making...a promise to her? Shu Tian became nervous and coughed unnaturally. "It''s okay..." "Are you still dizzy?" "A little better." Li Han nodded and helped her fasten her seat belt. He got into the main driver''s seat and started the car towards Imperial Garden. He held the steering wheel in one hand and put the other hand on the window. His slender fingers touched his chin from time to time. His driving posture was casual and sexy. The wind outside the window swept his hair and blew it a little messy... Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat when she recalled how he pulled her into his arms in the club without hesitation. She forced herself not to look at him anymore and turned to look at the street view that was shing past the window. It was dark and a cold wind blew in through the car window seam, but Shu Tian felt warm in the corner of her heart. ... Forty minutester, the car stopped in the front yard of Imperial Garden vi. The girl in the passenger seat was already asleep. Li Han got out of the car and walked to the other side. He opened the door and picked her up. He walked into the vi and walked all the way to the second floor. He gently kicked the door of the master bedroom open and put her on the bed. He took off her clothes, shoes, and covered her with a quilt. It was the first time for him to take care of someone, after doing all those things, he was already sweating profusely. Chapter 45 Chapter 45 Sitting by the bed and looking at the woman sleeping, Li Han didn''t know if Shu Tian was frightened. Even if she fell asleep, her eyebrows still frowned, and her long eyshes moved, looking very upset. Li Han was a little annoyed and turned to walk to the balcony with the cigarette case. Original content from N?velDrama.Org. He took out a cigarette and lit it. After closing the door between the bedroom and the balcony, he smoked deeply and slowly exhaled. The evening wind took away a wisp of white smoke, but it could not take away his emotions. He was never a person who believed in fate. He was rational all the time. To him, all people and things needed management and means. Fate was too illusory, so he never took it seriously. But now, the woman lying on the bed behind him was a stranger for him before, and a monthter, she suddenly broke into his world, out of his imagination, giving him too many surprises. She could affect him, not only physically, but also emotionally. After smoking a cigarette, his phone vibrated slightly in his pocket. He frowned, looked at the screen, and picked it up. That was Zhang Bikun who had just left the surveince room in Hongding Club. "Boss Li, the surveince video has been copied. Boss Pei asked someone to destroy the surveince video in the corridor." Li Han replied coldly and seriously, "Make a copy and give it to me tomorrow." "Yes." "By the way," Zhang Bikun added, "Boss Pei asked me to ask you how to deal with that man." The choking smoke was sucked into his lungs and quickly dissipated from his nose. Li Han answered as if he was talking about a small matter, "Cripple him." Zhang Bikun felt a little surprised on the phone and did not dare to say anything. "Yes, Boss Li." ... Shu Tian slept until dawn, opened her eyes in a daze, and saw that Li Han had not left yet. She raised her hand and rubbed her eyes. She didn''t know if she had woken him up with too much movement. Li Han opened his eyes, seemingly sleepy. Shu Tian was about to sit up, but when she got up slightly, he grabbed her shoulder and pressed her under his body. His voice was a little sexy and hoarse. "Don''t move." Shu Tian froze. "Aren''t you... Going to work?" "What, are you expecting me to leave?" "No..." Li Han put his arm through the back of her neck. "Are you still dizzy?" Shu Tian shook her head left and right. "I''m not dizzy any more." "I have helped you ask for leave. You just need to have a rest at home today. Don''t go anywhere." Hearing the word "leave," Shu Tian was a little anxious. "I''m fine now. I''d better go to work." She had only been working for a short time, but she had asked for leave many times. "Thepany doesn''t need you. Take a day off." Seeing that he insisted, Shu Tian no longer resisted. Anyway, in the end, she had to do as he said. Thinking of thest time Ye Junting lost his temper because Shu Tian didn''t go to work, Shu Tian edited a leave message and sent it to him. Not long after the text message was sent, Ye Junting called. Shu Tian subconsciously nced at Li Han, who was looking at the caller ID on her phone. He turned to her and raised his eyebrows slightly. Not picking up? ...It didn''t sound good. After a few seconds of hesitation, Shu Tian pressed the answer button. "Hello, Lawyer Ye?" "What''s wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?" Shu Tian was still held in Li Han''s arms, and the distance between them was extremely close, so Ye Junting''s words went into Li Han''s ears word by word. Shu Tian replied dully, "It''s okay. I have a fever." Ye Junting seemed relieved and asked after a moment, "Were you okayst night?" Meanwhile, the arms around her waist suddenly tightened a little. Shu Tian was shocked. This sentence was too easily misunderstood, and obviously, Li Han had misunderstood it. Ye Junting never asked about anything other than work. Why today he... Shu Tian did not dare to continue the conversation, then quickly ended the conversation, for fear that Li Han would throw her phone out unhappily. "It''s okay. I''m a little sick. My head hurts a little. I''ll hang up." "Okay, take care of yourself." Ye Junting paused. "See you at ourpany." "Well, goodbye." Shu Tian quickly hung up, but it was still toote. "Did Ye Junting know what happenedst night?" Li Han leaned closer to her ear, his deep voice filled with danger as if she would be eaten if she said a wrong word. His breath touched her ear, and she couldn''t help but turn her head. "Before we went to Hongdingst night, Lawyer Ye and I were meeting the attorney for the case." "What are you hiding for?" Li Han took her into his arms. Shu Tian''s soft body was in stark contrast to his. "Li Han..." Shu Tian held his big hand but was stopped by him. Recently, the two of them did not live together, and they had few intimate contacts so that now she was extremely nervous. Feeling her smooth skin, the man''s eyes color darkened and his body was as hot as a red-hot iron. "Do you miss me?" His hands were magical, and the ces he touched seemed to ignite a fire. Shu Tian''s body color turned into pink, very beautiful. She felt embarrassed and did say anything. Li Han rolled over and pressed her under his body, but his arms were on both sides of her body. Looking at the woman, he lowered his head and kissed her. His lips were imprinted on her beautiful corbone. "Do you miss me, huh?" The man asked again. Shu Tian was so shy that she even curled up her toes and didn''t dare to look into his eyes. Miss him? All she knew was that when she returned to Manshan Vi, she would unconsciously look at the chain on her foot. When an ident happened, the first person she could think of was him. This subtle change had already begun. Li Han was like a poison, owning her bit by bit. When she came back to her senses, she was already used to it. He kissed her more, and the morning light shone in. Shu Tian remembered the kiss in the car that night. Shu Tian was bewitched and reached out to hold the man''s neck. Her soft lips kissed his lips. They two were just keeping this gesturer. She didn''t know how to answer him, so she simply told him with her actions. Li Han was stunned and frowned. Subconsciously, he wanted to push her away, but he stopped when he saw her glittering tears. Her eyes were closed, and he could see each eysh of her clearly. She was trembling in panic, weak but brave. Shu Tian''s head went nk. When she realized what she had done, she quickly shrank back. However, the next second, the man suddenly lifted her cheek and kissed her deeply. The man kissed patiently and gently, time and time again, giving Shu Tian the illusion of being cherished. At this moment, she cared about nothing. She was too tired. Even if this wouldn''tst long, she just wanted to sink into this warm hug. Chapter 46 Chapter 46 Time passed in a blink of an eye. A week passed after Shu Tian''s ident. Li Han sorted the video into the divorce case as reference evidence. Together with the previous information, the bnce of the Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Lawyer Wu suggested, "Boss Li, thiswsuit will be a foregone conclusion. Why don''t you send the letter?" "No hurry." Li Han closed the document in his hand. "We shall wait." Lawyer Wu was puzzled. The evidence was all here, and there would never be any idents in this divorce case. Why was he still waiting? Thinking about it, Lawyer Wu suddenly enlightened himself. He looked at his boss''s calm face and he felt the coldness on his back. Was Boss Li going to ruin Tang Zechenpletely? Li Han noticed his gaze and looked up. "Do you have a problem?" Lawyer Wu shuddered. He was eight years older than Li Han, but his experience was useless when he was facing Li Han. This man''s aura was too powerful. Lawyer Wu immediately shook his head. "No problem. No problem!" Li Han looked back at the documents on the table. There were a few photos of Tang Zechen, who looked gentle but actually did a lot of dirty work. He cheated on his wife, and hispany evaded taxes. Even his project was not clean. He should get punished for any of his wrongdoings. Was he stupid or brave? How dare he y tricks under Li Han''s nose. Lawyer Wu raised his hand to wipe away his sweat. Never provoke awyer, especially Li Han, who was so ruthless that he wouldn''t leave one any chance. "Boss Li, if there''s nothing else, I''ll go out first." Li Han waved his hand but then stopped Lawyer Wu when he reached the door. "Don''t tell Shu Tian about these developments." Lawyer Wu''s eyes widened in surprise, but when he turned around, he pretended to be normal. "I got it, Boss Li." After leaving the office, Lawyer Wu changed his expressionpletely. It was not that he had never guessed the rtionship between Li Han and Shu Tian. The fact that a famouswyer would take such a trivialwsuit would raise suspicions. Moreover, it wasn''t long before Shu Tian began working at the Hanyi Law Office. But after all, Li Han had never done anything special to Shu Tian. It was really hard for Lawyer Wu to make a decision in his heart, but Li Han just let him hide it from Shu Tian. This waspletely contrary to Li Han''s formal style, and it was not something awyer should do, which could only prove that the rtionship between Li Han and Shu Tian was indeed not ordinary. Lawyer Wu was d that he had never mentioned Shu Tian''s case to a third person. It seemed that he should be more polite to Miss Shu in the future. ... Thewsuit progressed very quickly. Everything was going well, but then it was not clear through what way did Tang Guofeng know about this. He contacted Zhang Bikun that day, hoping to meet Li Han. "Boss Li, should I arrange the time for you?" Li Han didn''t even look up. "No." Tang Guofeng was rejected many times, and he finally couldn''t do this anymore. He persuaded Liu Lifang and asked her to go to the Hanyi Law Office herself. The front desk staff informed Li Han. As she was already here, Li Han finally agreed to see her. "Bring her in." A few minutester, Liu Lifang followed Zhang Bikun into the office. The woman was dressed in luxury brands, and the bag she held was worth at least hundreds of thousands yuan. "Boss Li, she''s here." "You can go out." After Zhang Bikun left, there were only two people left in the huge office. Li Han sat behind the desk and did not move. Liu Lifang quietly looked around the room and her eyes were unconsciously drawn by the man. Liu Lifang thought that Tang Zechen was already very handsome, but when she saw Li Han, she realized that there was really someone who had all the advantages in the world. She heard from Tang Guofeng that Li Han was only thirty-two years old. For people of their age, Li Han was just a young man. But when she saw Li Han with her own eyes, she felt great pressure, making her unconsciously fear him. "I have a meeting in 20 minutes. Since Ms. Liu doesn''t have an appointment, let''s make it short." Li Han stood up and then sat down on the sofa. He pointed to the opposite seat. "Sit down please." Liu Lifang cleared her throat and put on airs. "I came to Boss Li personally this time for my son''s sake. Boss Li must know it too." However, Li Han asked without changing his expression, "What''s the matter?" Liu Lifang, who was also experienced, smiled cooperatively. "Boss Li, since I''m sitting here, there''s no need to beat about the bush, right? How can I get the video about the Hongding club? You can tell me what you want?" Li Han pretended to be in a daze. His legs were elegantly crossed, and his tone was calm. "I don''t want much. Give Shu Tian 70% of Tang Zechen''s assets, and I''ll give the video to you." "70%?!" Liu Lifang was so shocked that she sat up straight and looked at him angrily. "Boss Li, are you kidding me?" She and Tang Guofeng only had Tang Zechen as their son, and most of their assets were in Tang Zechen''s name. If she did give Shu Tian 70% of Tang Zechen''s assets, wouldn''t that be equivalent to giving all the Tang Family''s money to Shu Tian? The more Liu Lifang thought about it, the more she felt that Li Han did it on purpose. Her tone became a little bit cold. "Boss Li, if that''s the case, then why should I still ask for the video?" "Of course you should." Li Han exined to Liu Lifang ''deliberately''. His tone was slow, and Liu Lifang heard every word clearly. "If you give Shu Tian 70% of Tang Zechen''s assets, it''s just a loss of money. But if this video is released, Mr. Tang will probably be held criminally responsible." Liu Lifang panicked. But she suppressed the uneasiness and pretended to be calm. "Boss Li, you are a evidence?" "How do you know I don''t?" Li Han looked up at Liu Lifang leisurely. His deep ck eyes were like a sharp dagger that could pierce through all the disguise and into one''s weakest inside. Liu Lifang took a deep breath and changed the subject. "What''s the benefit for Boss Li to do this? Shu Tian and Zechen are still legally married no matter what. If this bes a big deal, then it''s not easy for you to end this, right?" Hearing this, Li Han really wanted tough. But theugh was full of ridicule. "If Ms. Liu has a way to make me unable to end this, you can do it." This sentence meant that not only did Li Han not take Liu Lifang seriously, but he even belittled the Tang Family. Liu Lifang could no longer pretend to be calm due to his rxed and unaffected voice. The Tang Family was indeed not as powerful as Li Han, but no one dared to say such a thing in front of Liu Lifang. However, before Liu Lifang could react, Li Han''s next sentence silenced her again. "The two people Mr. Tang entrusted said that they have backup recordings and videos." Liu Lifang widened her eyes in disbelief. "What?! You actually..." Li Han stopped talking, but this attitude made Liu Lifang even more flustered. She came to Li Han today to get the video back. She thought she could take some advantage while getting the video back, but Li Han''s words made her act like a joke. This man had never intended to let the Tang Family go. He came prepared. Chapter 47 Chapter 47 Li Han didn''t care about Liu Lifang''s mood. He raised his hand and looked at his watch. "It''s almost time. Miss Li, you should leave. Please forgive me for not seeing you out." From the moment she entered the door, every move of his was full of courtesy, but such a polite person made Liu Lifang tremble. She took out her phone from her bag and pressed it a few times on the screen. Soon, Liu Lifang looked up again, but she didn''t mean to leave. "Boss Li, it''s unrealistic to give Shu Tian 70% of the property. I can assign 30% of the property under Zechen''s name to Shu Tian." Li Han obviously had no intention of continuing the conversation. He said indifferently and distantly, "Have you finished?" Seeing that he was about to leave, Liu Lifang stood up in a hurry. "Boss Li, why did you try so hard to help Shu Tian fight for her property? What can you get?" Li Han paused and pressed the tip of his tongue against his mouth as if he was thinking of something. His eyes darkened and he thought a moment, "Because I..." ''Click!'' Before he could finish speaking, the door of his office was suddenly pushed open from outside. Shu Tian appeared in the office, panting. Zhang Bikun quickly followed behind. "Mr. Li has a guest. You can''t go in..." Shu Tian looked at the two of them in the room, frowning and questioning Liu Lifang in an unfriendly tone, "Why are you here?" Zhang Bikun saw Shu Tian walk in and was about to stop her when Li Han gave him a look to stop him. Zhang Bikun understood what Li Han meant and left the office. There were only three people left in the office. Li Han turned around and nced at Liu Lifang''s phone. "You''ve you sent her a message?" Liu Lifang clenched her fists slightly, and her palms were sweating. The longer she stayed here, the more she could feel the terrifying aura of the man. For a moment, Liu Lifang didn''t dare to admit that she had done it. Liu Lifang turned to Shu Tian. "Tian, I came here today to talk to Boss Li about the matter of you and Zechen. That night in Hongding, Zechen didn''t mean it. He didn''t expect this to happen either. Don''t take it to heart!" "Don''t take it to heart?" Shu Tian almost couldn''t breathe. If Liu Lifang wasn''t her elder, she really didn''t know whether she could refrain herself or not. "What''s the matter? Let''s talk privately. This is the Liu Lifang saw that Shu Tian had a tough attitude and was different from what she looked like in the Tang Family before. She believed that it was because of Li Han''s support that Shu Tian became emboldened. She wanted to p Shu Tian in the face, but she was still pretending to be kind, "Tian, I know you hate Zechen, but you two are husband and wife. Even if you don''t have any feelings for him today, you can still be friends. Even if you are going to divorce now, you really had loved him. You shouldn''t force Zechen into despair!" Shu Tian''s face was livid. "He''s the one who doesn''t care about the past, not me." "It was Zechen who made a mistake first, but..." Liu Lifang nced at Li Han at the side. "But if this video is sent out, Zechen will be ruined!" Shu Tian didn''t understand and frowned tightly. "What video?" "You don''t know?" Liu Lifang was a little surprised and subconsciously nced at Li Han, whose expression remained the same, but whose eyes were so cold that they made people shudder. Liu Lifang, the sophisticate, immediately understood what was going on. She took a step forward and almost fell on Shu Tian. "Tian, I know you aren''t that heartless. Boss Li got the video that recorded you being in trouble in Hondong that day and he said he was going to make it public. You know, if it really is announced, Zechen''s future will be ruined. He''s my only son. If something really happens to him, how should I do?" Shu Tian didn''t know anything about it. It was more than half a month since the ident in Hongding. She didn''t want to think about that night. It turned out that Li Han had copied the surveince video. If it really was as Liu Lifang said, this would be the key to thewsuit. But she also understood how important this video was. Not only would she got a divorce, but Tang Zechen might pay a heavier price. Her original intention was to retaliate against the Tang family, but not to send Tang Zechen to jail. Li Han did not say anything, and there was no unnecessary expression on his face. He just looked at Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. Shu Tian with deep eyes, as if he was waiting for her answer. Liu Lifang saw that Shu Tian was silent and knew that she was hesitant. Thinking of Tang Zechen, she gritted her teeth and knelt directly in front of Shu Tian. Shu Tian was shocked and took a step back, but Liu Lifang suddenly grabbed her hand. "Tian, I know Zechen has done something wrong, but no matter what, we were once a family, right? Do you really have the heart to do this? I can promise you on behalf of Zechen. He will agree to everything you ask for. I will also persuade him not to bother you about your divorce. This time, please let him go!" Shu Tian''s face was tense. "Get up first." "Please, Tian, for the sake that you had called me mom in the past..." Before Liu Lifang could finish the second half of the sentence, Li Han had already walked behind Shu Tian. His long arms held her shoulder and brought her into his chest, making Liu Lifang fail to grab Shu Tian''s hand. Liu Lifang looked up at the two of them. The man and the woman were somewhat like a perfect match. She withdrew her hand resentfully and forced out a few tears. She didn''t cry bitterly, but her voice was loud. Li Han annoyed by the noise. He took thendline on the table and said coldly, "Ask the security to take her out." Liu Lifang was flustered when she found that Li Han was about to chase her away. She took a few steps forward with her knees and a shrewd look shed in her eyes. "Tian, can you help Zechen this time? I know you hate him, but can you bear to see that the child loses his father?" Shu Tian was made hesitant by Liu Lifang''s words. She didn''t want Tang Zechen to live a good life. He had used such a despicable means to her, and she was not the holy mother, so she was unable to repay her grievances with virtue. Besides, Li Han had worked so hard for herwsuit. If she forgave Liu Lifang so easily, it was unfair to him. But what did she say just now? Child? Father? In a trance for a moment, Shu Tian suddenly recalled what Tang Zechen said on the phone earlier, "Jiang Mengyao is pregnant." Her body trembled. Her words undoubtedly touched her raw nerve. Even though how much she hated Tang Zechen and Jiang Mengyao, what was the guilt of the child? The child was innocent... She understood what the feeling was like because Shu Changlei had been brought to the court to receive the trial and taken away back then. If the child had not had a father by his side since he was a baby because of her, wouldn''t she have be the kind of person she hated the most? There was a moment of silence in the office. Li Han looked down at the woman''s slightly pale face and turned to get the phone on the table, but was grabbed by a pair of slightly cold hands. "Li Han." The man paused, and it seemed that the air was frozen. His sharp eyes met hers. Before she could speak, he said, "Think it twice." Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat, and her hands which were holding his sleeve did not loosen. Her pupils shook violently. After a long time, she slowly closed her eyes and her chest heaved slightly because of the excitement. "Give her the video..." Chapter 48 Chapter 48 Words about Shu Tian obtrusively broke into the boss'' office had been spread widely by her colleagues on the same team when she returned to the office. Things urred unexpectedly, which got her into a p. She went straight upstairs to look for Li Han without thinking too much. But once again, her action had been used to add more fun to the gossip. However, they only had a few things to gossip about. In the past, everyone said that she had a sponsor, a sugar daddy, things like that. However, no one even dared to guess who this man might be. Now that she had broken into the boss'' office and returned in a whole skin, it was reasonable for people to suppose that Li Han was the one ying the role behind her. Shu Tian received everyone''s inquisitive and cautious eyes. Even Zhang Rui''er was cautious like she was treading on eggshells. She restrained the soreness in her throat, tried to act normally. The rumor seemed to be the only thing that flew faster than light. She could not control other people''s mouths and keep them shut. So she could only do her best to ignore or not take these rumors seriously. Sitting on the office chair, Shu Tian took a sip of water from the thermos. The liquid warmed her stomach up. Thinking of Li Han''s cold eyes just now, she felt a chill out of nowhere. Liu Lifang took the video, walked out of the office with a big smile. She didn''t think Liu was a kind person at all. Liu gave the video to her only because of the unborn child. Her only concern was that Li Han might misunderstand her. She had rified, corrected, and tried to clear things up one by one. However, he chose to drive her out with only a few words. Shu Tian sighed with discouragement, half-lying on her desk listlessly. She took out her phone and sent a message to Fu Qingtong. [Sweety Britney (Shu Tian): are you there?] [Thigh (Fu Qingtong): yes.] [Sweety Britney: It seemed that I pissed Li Han off. He really got angry.] [Thigh: ... You actually pissed him off! Tell me about it. (Gossipy face)] Shu Tian''s fingers stopped moving for a second because her brain was processing what had happened just now. Then she told Fu Qingtong about it in brief. Less than half a minute after she sent the message, Fu sent her back with a string of surprised faces. [Sweety Britney: what do you mean?] [Thigh: I respect you, for you really have balls. You are the first one who determines to kick down your Shu Tian frowned when she read this message. Her fingertips were dancing on the screen: [why would I be adder kicker? I have exined to him that it was all for the child. It was just... useless.] [Thigh: I bet it was! It was intolerable for anyone. From where I stand, Li Han had been polite that he didn''t hang you up and beat the shit out of you. Think about it. To help you, Li Han, the boss of a big still stand on the side of your ex-husband. Is it tolerable?] Shu Tian clicked on the dialog box, typed some words then quickly deleted them. Her fingers paused. Before she could figure out what to reply, she received Fu Qingtong''s message again. [Thigh: you''re still too soft-hearted. You might have considered too much for the child, while Li Han might not think so. After all, you''re entangled in Tang Zechen''s problem. If you really worry that your Boss Li would be angry, go and coax him.] Coax? Shu Tian imagined how it felt to use this word on Li Han, and she got goosebumps. She was probably frozen to death before she could coax him. Not everyone could bear that man''s horrible aura. She chatted with Fu Qingtong for some time. Then someone in the office called her. Shu Tian didn''t dare to neglect. She put down her phone and went to work. It was not until after work that she had time to pick up her phone again. Looking at the time, she thought of Fu Qingtong''s words again. She thought that Li Han had not left yet. She tidied up the things on the desk first, took her bag, and tried to escape. "Shu Tian!" When she reached the door of the office, someone suddenly called her. Shu Tian was startled. She turned around. It was Zhang Rui''er. She breathed a sigh of relief. "What?" Zhang Rui''er pointed at the door of Liu Wei''s office. She was a little surprised. "Are you leaving so early?" Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Shu Tian was afraid of being found out. "...Yes, I kinda have things to do today." "Okay, then you are free to get off work now. I''ll let you know if we need you here!" Looking at Zhang Rui''er''s careless look, she remembered the look in her eyes when she came back from the boss'' office today. She took two steps towards her. "Rui, today..." "Oh, it''s okay. I understand. You are free to leave." Shu Tian was skeptical. "Do you really understand?" Zhang Rui''er smiled brightly. "Well, I believe you''re not that kind of person." With that, Shu Tian''s heart, which had been deste for a long time, was filled with a trace of warmth. She produced a smile from the bottom of her heart. "Thank you." Colleagues, rumors, as long as one person trusted you and shared the same camp with you, it was enough. ... Shu Tian took the elevator to the underground parking lot. She had been here in Li Han''s car for a few times. The car he most frequently drove was that Bentayga. But even if she had searched for that car in the parking lot for a long time, she couldn''t find that familiar car. Shu Tian took out her phone and found Zhang Bikun''s number. She called him, and he answered quickly. She couldn''t wait to ask, "Secretary Zhang, do you know which car Li Han has driven to work today?" Zhang Bikun was very polite. "It was the same Bentayga as before." Shu Tian took a few nces at the parking lot again. "I''m in the underground parking lot now. Why didn''t I see it?" "Miss Shu, are you looking for Boss Li?" Zhang Bikun paused. "Boss Li has already left." "He''s off work now?" It''s only after five o''clock. He never left so early. "Yes, Boss Li has an appointment tonight." After hanging up the phone, Shu Tian was a little discouraged. She didn''t expect that she left early on purpose, but now she came here for nothing. Maybe he had known she would find him. Did he avoid her on purpose? Shu Tian looked slightly put out, walked out of thepany to a nearby subway station. In the evening rush hour, people crowded in the subway like sardines in the can. She followed the flow of people into the subway. There was almost no handrail for her to hold. She transferred the subway line once. When Shu Tian arrived in Imperial Garden, it was almost half- past seven. She took off her shoes, slid into the sofa, and took out her phone from her coat, feeling exhausted. She saw that she only missed a call from Ye Lihua. She called back and reminded Ye Lihua not to meet with the Tang family recently, waiting for her to deal with it. Ye Lihua just asked her to be careful and didn''t ask much else. After hanging up the phone, Shu Tian couldn''t help but open the address book and find Li Han''s number. It was easy to remember. To buy this number probably would cost the money of a car. She looked at the clock on the living room wall and hesitated for a moment before dialing it. "Dudu" - A notification tone sounded. After a long time, no one answered. Shu Tian unconsciously tightened her fingers, feeling nervous. Just as she thought no one would answer, the busy signal stopped. Then there was some noisy music. A flicker of joy shed in Shu Tian''s eyes. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a soft, coquettish female voice, "Hey, who are you looking for?" Chapter 49 Chapter 49 Her words were blocked by that woman''s voice, and she felt a hand was gripping her throat, which made her feel sore and hurt. Shu Tian opened her mouth but could not make a sound. She did not know what to say. She even took her phone away from her ear and nced at the number on the screen to see if she had dialed the wrong number. It''s indeed his number. "Hello?" The woman asked again impatiently. Shu Tian came back to her senses and hung up the phone in a hurry. She was standing in the huge living room alone. The French window next to the sofa was open, and the night wind blew in. Shu Tian couldn''t help but tremble slightly. The house was so quiet that she could hear the movement of the watch needle, and her ears were filled with the soft voice of that woman. Was this so-called social engagements? Was this the way to socialize? ... At the same time, Li Han was walking out of the bathroom of the VIP room in Hongding Club. The man was wearing a ck shirt, and his two unbuttoned crystal buttons were sparkling like diamonds under the dim light, revealing his fair and sexy corbone. His straight and slender legs looked even more powerful under his suit pants. Half of his handsome face was hidden in the shadow of the light, which made him look gloomy but charming. "Young Master Li, someone called you just now. I saw you weren''t there, so... I answered it for you." The woman sitting at the side had long wavy hair and exquisite makeup on her face. The ck buttocks dress was tightly wrapped around her butt, revealing her great shape. Li Han seemed to be annoyed, and that sexy woman looked unhappy either. "Who let you take it?" The woman panicked. "I..." Pei Yu waved at her. "Feifei, you''ve been working in Hongding Club for so long. Howe you not know this rule?" "Young Master Pei, I was in a hurry and... it was my fault. I''m sorry." "All right, you can go out." Pei Yu waved his hand and said nothing in the end. After all, Feifei had been working with him since the founding of the club. Although she was just a barmaid, she did her job with due diligence. Li Han swiped the phone screen open, and saw the name "Shu Tian" in the recent call history. The man frowned. It was her? Subconsciously, he wanted to call back, but he still stopped when he pressed it. Thinking of what happened in the office today, and the way she gave that video to Liu Lifang, Li Han frowned, threw the phone on the table, and picked up the ss, drinking silently. Ling Junze and Pei Yu tipped the wink at each other. Pei Yu didn''t have the guts to step forward and say something to Li Han, for he knew that Li would not listen to him. Pei Yu shrugged and left the chance to Ling Junze. Thetter sat next to the man and looked at him who was emitting a cold aura. Ling Junze asked tentatively, "Did you quarrel with your ''little pet''?" Li Han paused as he was going to drink the wine. His resolute face was filled with irritation and his tone was unkind. "When must my emotions have something to do with her?" Ling Junze knew that he had guessed correctly and nerved himself to ask, "Because of what?" Li Han gulped down another ss of wine, acting as if he didn''t care about this. The light yellow liquid flowed into his throat, and his sculptured features were even more outstanding in the dim light. His thin lips, which were tightly pressed, made him seem even more ruthless. "She didn''t get over her ex-husband." It was a little awkward for him to discuss her with others. In fact, a few people had heard about most of Shu Tian''s things. Li Han, Pei Yu, Ling Junze, and Ji Chuanyi had a chat group of four people. Shu Tian worked in the Hanyi Law Office, so naturally, Ji Chuanyi knew everything, so did them. "What''s so good about that girl? Look at you, so into her." It was really not Li Han''s style toe out in the middle of the night to get drunk. Except for Chujing, none of them had ever seen he was affected to this extent. Hearing this, Li Han gently curled his lips and smiled at himself. "Right, what''s good about her?" He also wanted to know that a girl, who was eight years younger than him, made him so impulsive. "Come on! There are all kinds of women in Pei Yu''s club here. You can try another one. If someone else can do it..." Before Ling Junze could finish speaking, he was stopped by Li Han''s sharp eyes. The corner of his lips twitched. "Well, forget it. I didn''t say anything just now." In fact, Ling Junze also felt sorry for Li Han. The obstacles on him actually came from his heart. What happened in the past made this seemingly-perfect man have the most painful stroke, which was like a scar that would not disappear easily. He knew it better than anyone else. Ling Junze clinked the ss with Li Han and drank it. "Han, if you really like her, just give it a shot. It''s just about love. As long as you keep it under control, there''s nothing wrong with it." "Like her?" Li Han looked down at the light yellow liquid in the ss with a frustrated face. "It''s hard for me to like someone." Ling Junze was stunned and frowned. "Maybe you misunderstood her. Although I haven''t seen that girl often, she doesn''t look like the woman who wasn''t loyal to a rtionship." "She''s not happy when I''m targeting her ex-husband." Otherwise, she wouldn''t have taken that video. Whether it was family affection or love, she still had feelings for the Tang Family. He could ept it even when he was called a pervert, but the truth was that he couldn''t ept that his woman had any feelings for her ex-husband''s family. Even if it was just sympathy. ... After a round of drinking, it was almost two o''clock in the morning. The three of them drank a lot, and the bottle alone upied one-third of the table. Pei Yu asked Hongding Club''s substitute driver to drive the two of them home, while he lived upstairs. Before Li Han left, Ling Junze patted him on the shoulder and said, "Think about it again. Don''t be too arbitrary..." Li Han took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and waited for the driver at the entrance of the club. He got on with his slender legs and his voice sounded clear under the alcohol. "To Imperial Garden." The driver responded. Just as he started the car, someone suddenly grabbed the window. "Young Master Li!" Li Han in the back seat slightly raised his eyelids and looked at the woman who had chased out. She was the one who had just taken his phone call in the private room, but he had forgotten her name, not Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. even her appearance. "Young Master Li, you left your lighter." The woman reached out and handed over the expensive lighter. Her thin arms reached through the crack of the window and she presented it in front of him. Li Han didn''t take it. He took a puff of his cigarette and puffed it out again. There was a slight smile on his mouth, but it looked so fake. "I don''t like people touching my things. You can keep it." After that, he didn''t even look at the woman and ordered the driver, "Let''s go." The Bentley sped out, leaving the woman standing there regretfully stomping her feet. She had heard that Pei Yu had a very powerful friend in thew domain. It was not usual for her to for a night. She never thought that he would ignore her. She thought that Pei Yu was the only one who was rich but upright, but she didn''t expect Li Han to be more serious. Li Han preserved his moral integrity so much that she even wanted to know what kind of woman could sleep with him. Perhaps such a man could only be looked up to. Chapter 50 Chapter 50 At three o''clock in the morning, the car stopped at the entrance of Imperial Garden Vi. After shutting down the engine, the designated driver returned the key. When he got out of the car and walked away, he couldn''t help but look back. The luxury car was still parked in that ce, and the man in the car didn''t get off. The cigarette was almost burned out, and Li Han threw it away before his finger was burned. He drank a lot but didn''t feel drunk. Instead, his head ached faintly. Ling Junze''s words echoed in his ears as he looked at the dark vi in front of him. "If you like her, tell her." "She doesn''t look like a person who has a foot in either camp. Do you misunderstand her?" Of course, he knew she wasn''t that kind of person. However, when Liu Lifang came to him today, her words made his effort a joke. As awyer, he had dealt with all sorts of people and things these years. Liu Lifang was just a frog in the deep water, and she couldn''t threaten him at all. It was obvious that she had something on Shu Tian and she wasn''t repentant. But even if he knew her purpose, he didn''t want to care about it anymore. If she wanted him to give Liu Lifang the video, he could give it to her. Though he handed over the surveince video directly, he felt ufortable. He was determined not to care about her anymore, but it was difficult to do so. Did he like her? He didn''t know what was "like" for a long time. If he was young, he might try to like people. However, it seemed that he had lost the ability to love now. He didn''t know how to define whether he liked her or not. He only knew that Shu Tian was special for him. He wanted to touch her physically. He could step over the mental barrier now. It was only Shu Tian who helped him achieve it. Thinking of this, Li Han became serious. After a moment of silence, he opened the door and walked into the house. The lights in the living room were all turned off and it was dark. He turned on a few wallmps and put on the slippers. Then he walked to the master bedroom on the second floor. At the door of the bedroom, the man closed his reddened eyes and could not hide the tiredness. He breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to open the door. The light in the corridor leaked through the crack and lit the bulge under the quilt in the middle of the bed. Shey on her side and curled up slightly. It was a self-protective posture. She turned her back to the door and her face was half buried in the quilt. Li Han stood at the door and watched her. His eyes were filled with disappointment and coldness. It was all because of what happened in the office today. Liu Lifang knelt down to beg him, but he felt that the person who had lost was him. "The kid..." Suddenly, the woman on the bed mumbled and her body moved under the quilt, but soon it was quiet Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. again. The man''s hand on the doorknob paused. He only wanted to take a look at her, but now he couldn''t help but walk in. He carefully closed the door and turned on the wallmp which was furthest from the bed. Li Han sat on the chair by the bed and pulled down the quilt, showing her fair and beautiful face. She didn''t sleep soundly. She frowned a little and talked in her dream from time to time. Her hair on the temples was wet and stuck to her cheeks because she had just slept with her head covered by the quilt, and her cheeks were flushed. The temperature in the room was a little high. The man unbuttoned his shirt, revealing his strong chest muscles. He pulled back the quilt and kissed the woman''s pink lips. Shu Tian was sleeping soundly. Suddenly, her body sank and her mouth was blocked. As a result, she couldn''t breathe, so she woke up soon. A magnified face appeared in front of her suddenly. It was too close to see who the person was. She was startled and pushed the person at random. She opened her mouth and wanted to shout, but the man took the opportunity to put his tongue into her mouth. The strong smell of alcohol filled her mouth and she had nowhere to go. She bit the man''s lower lip and he finally let her go. Shu Tian''s voice trembled and she was almost crying. "Who are you?!" Li Han sat straight and turned on the bedsidemp so that she could see him clearly. "Li Han?" Shu Tian said uncertainly. "Didn''t you, didn''t you go out for social engagement?" He smoothed away a wisp of her hair, and the expressions in his eyes were unpredictable. It was too unfathomable for her to understand it at such an age. He didn''t speak but untied the bowknot in her cor. He exined everything with his actions. Her thin pajama was quickly torn by him, and her skin was exposed in the air. Shu Tian became not sleepy at all. She raised her hand to cover the chest but was stopped by the man. She didn''t forget the phone call. He came back in the middle of the night without saying a word and he just wanted to sleep with her. He regarded her as a whore! She couldn''t help but be angry. "Li Han, what are you doing?" Her resistance, her struggle, and her uncooperative behavior all infuriated the man. He snorted and put on a serious face. He couldn''t control his anger and bent over to bit her slender neck. "Ah!" Shu Tian let out a low cry of pain and couldn''t help but wonder if he had done the same thing to another woman just now? She had told herself not to care about it. It would be a joke if she cared about such a rtionship, but it was hard for her not to care. The left clothes on her were quickly taken off by him. His deep eyes were looking at her naked body. Shu Tian''s face was pale and she endured the bitterness in her heart. "Mr. Li, please be self- respecting!" "Self-respecting?" Li Han looked at her sarcastically as if he had heard a joke. His every word was malicious. "You don''t deserve to talk about self-respect with me. You divorced woman." Such words and such a frivolous look were not something she could bear. Tears fell from the corners of her eyes, but that person couldn''t see it. He was only focused on conquering this body. Yes, the body was what he really wanted. If he wanted it, she had to give it to him. Otherwise, how could she be worthy of him helping her with thewsuit? She agreed at the beginning, but... Why was her heart so painful? After a while, even her body ached, and she could not help but tremble in pain. He tortured her fiercely, so there was no joy at all. She was a virgin and she gave her precious first time to this man. However, it was in vain. In his heart, she was still so despicable that she only deserved to be the object of his venting. Apart from this body, she was not worthy of beingpared to him at all. Li Han''s ears were filled with the woman''s broken cries. He could not stop as if this was the only way to confirm her existence. The man raised his hand to cover her red eyes, cruel but gentle. "You shouldn''t plead for him. You''re mine. Everything you have is mine. I give you luck and I give you misfortune." Chapter 51 Chapter 51 The next morning, in the president''s office of the Hanyi Law Office. Li Han handed Lawyer Wu a thick stack of documents on the table. "You will be personally responsible for thiswsuit from now on." Lawyer Wu was stunned and looked down. It was Shu Tian''s divorcewsuit. From the beginning to now, Li Han took charge of the case mainly, and he assisted him. But now it was suddenly handed to him... Lawyer Wu nced at his president and didn''t dare to agree. He politely refused, "Boss Li, almost all the documents are prepared now. You let me..." "It''s okay." Li Han raised his hand and interrupted him, knowing what he was thinking. "Just do it. Don''t worry." Since Li Han said so, Lawyer Wu couldn''t say anything more and left with the documents. The office quieted down and the view outside the French window came into his sight. Li Han looked at the empty table, but his heart was not here. When he left this morning, she was still asleep. The bedroom was in a mess. Her whole body was covered in bruises. The tear stains on her face proved how strong his carnal desire wasst night. He didn''t want it either. He had a lot of patience for her, but did she want it? In her eyes, his patience was less important than what her ex-husband''s mother said. Tang Zechen would not give up. This joyful but exhausted sex was his punishment for her. After the punishment, he still had to sue Tang Zechen. Divorce and family property. Tang Family also clearly knew what he had done. After the showdown with Liu Lifang, she would definitely pursue it after getting the video. A cornered beast would do something desperate. This could not be more suitable to describe the Tang Family. Since Tang Zechen knew that Li Han had an affair with Shu Tian, he would better leave everything to Lawyer Wu before Tang Zechen took the initiative. Li Han rarely smoked in the office, but now he couldn''t help but want to smoke. White smoke came out of his thin lips, and a sarcastic arc raised on his lips. He had to avoid doing anything that may arouse suspicion to her. Zhang Bikun knocked on the door and went into the office to report on today''s work. He was a little surprised to smell the smoke. He nced at his boss secretly and sighed when he remembered the call Miss Shu made to him yesterday. It was said that a seemingly heartless man was the most devoted. He didn''t know if Miss Shu knew that Boss Li cared about her. ... It was only in the afternoon that Shu Tian found out that the leadingwyer of herwsuit was changed. She had just finished talking about work with Ye Junting when Lawyer Wu asked her to go to the reception room. "Then if there are any problems in the future, you cane to me directly." Lawyer Wu''s attitude was so good that Shu Tian was a little confused. She was silent for a moment and couldn''t help but ask, "Did Boss Li say why he handed it over to you?" Logically speaking, if thewyer had changed, she should be informed immediately, but Li Han didn''t do that. He probably felt that it was unnecessary. Anyway, he didn''t care about her opinions. "Boss Li has been a little busytely. I think he doesn''t have enough time. You can rest assured that the Shu Tian quickly waved her hand to hide the disappointment in her heart. "I''m very relieved to leave it to you. There''s nothing to worry about. I''ll trouble you in the future. Thanks." "You''re wee. We are colleagues, and I should help you." Shu Tian smiled gently and left the reception room. The smile on her face disappeared. Looking at the bright and high-end office tables around her, she was a little confused. He handed the anymore. Shu Tian could still clearly remember what happenedst night. After what he said, she had thought about what would happen. It was an expected decision, but she still felt a chill in her heart. That man was too esoteric to understand. She couldn''t figure out what he was thinking at all. Was he trying to draw a line with her by doing this now? Shu Tian''s hands on her sides tightened. Perhaps to him, she was nothing. ... They were not on speaking terms. Shu Tian returned to Imperial Garden as usual every day. She thought it would be awkward for them to meet, but she didn''t expect that this person would nevere back since that morning. She was the only one left in the huge vi, and the luxurious bungalow seemed to be vacant. If it weren''t for the good security in the vi area, she couldn''t even sleep at night. They only met by chance in thepany, but as an intern, it was not easy for her to meet her boss. She only met Li Han twice in a week. The phone became useless, and no one contacted each other. They went back to their original positions - strangers. Shu Tian was in a bad mood. She felt as if a big stone was pressing on her chest. She was depressed and unhappy. Finally, she couldn''t help but go to Fu Qingtong for a drink after work. After chatting about these things, Fu Qingtong said in Li Han''s defense at first. When she heard another woman answer his phone, she changed her position and scolded him as a scumbag. After drinking for a while, both of them were slightly drunk. Shu Tian was not very good at drinking, and her legs were weak. She staggered. After going to the toilet, she stopped by the bar counter to pay the bill. The moment she turned around after swiping the card, she felt dizzy and bumped into the person behind her. "Ah!" Shu Tian rubbed her forehead and bent down slightly. "I''m sorry, I didn''t mean to..." After that, she walked around and was about to leave when she heard the man call her by her name. "Shu Tian?" The voice was a little familiar. She looked up and before she could see clearly, Fu Qingtong suddenly pounced on him. "It''s him, the old bastard who is impotent. It''s him!" Shu Tian was speechless. The waiter was speechless. The guest was speechless. Ji Chuanyi''s face darkened. He looked at the woman hanging on him unhappily and pushed her away. "Miss, you have mistaken me." Fu Qingtong squinted and pointed at him. "No. I am right. I know you even if you turn into ashes!" Ji Chuanyi simply ignored her and looked at Shu Tian. "Did you drink?" "A little." Shu Tian finally saw the man''s face. He was another major shareholder of the Hanyi Law Office and a famouswyer. He was Li Han''s best friend, Ji Chuanyi. Thinking of Ji Chuanyi, it was inevitable for her to think of Li Han. Shu Tian''s face turned bitter again. She held Fu Qingtong and was about to leave. "I''m sorry, Boss Ji. Tong is drunk. I''ll take her away." Ji Chuanyi stepped forward and blocked her way. He looked behind her and saw nobody. "You came here by yourself?" Shu Tian nodded. "Yes." "I''ll send you back." "No need. How can I trouble you? I can go back by myself... Hey! Boss Ji, Boss Ji?" Before Shu Tian Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. could finish speaking, Ji Chuanyi had already gone out to get the car. Shu Tian stood there in a daze. No wonder he and Li Han could be friends. They all ignored what she said. She didn''t know that Ji Chuanyi just walked out of the bar and called Li Han. "Your woman drank too much in Season Sky Lake Bar. Do you want to pick her up?" Chapter 52 Chapter 52 At this time, Li Han was in a high-end apartment next to thepany. He had just taken a shower when he received a call from Ji Chuanyi. The man frowned slightly and was surprised. "Who?" Ji Chuanyi said jokingly, "Shu Tian. You sound as if you have other women." Li Han was not in the mood to bicker with him. He held the phone, walked to the water maker in the dining room and picked up a ss of sparkling water. The slightly stimting liquid flowed down his throat. For a moment, he added, "I''m not going, you handle it." "Hey, hey, what should I do with your woman? I think she''s drunk a lot. Aren''t you afraid that I''ll be seduced by her beauty and take her somewhere?" Ji Chuanyi was not very familiar with Shu Tian. But his good friend Li Han liked her, so it didn''t matter what he says. After all, falling in love was a matter between two people. In his heart, Ji Chuanyi still hoped that Li Han coulde over. After all, Li Han suffered a lot from the quarreling between him and Shu Tian for the past two days. In the past two days, Li Han had been traveling to meetings and social engagements whenever he could, just like a workaholic. A rtionship would also help him distract himself. Li Han paused when he decided to hang up the phone. "Don''t you dare!" Ji Chuanyi smiled. "Since you''re worried about her,e over and take a look. You pretend not to care... Hello, hello?" Before he could finish speaking, the phone was hung up. Ji Chuanyi took it off his ear and said to the screen, "Weird." Shu Tian and Fu Qingtong''s homes were inpletely different directions. Imperial Garden was on the easternmost side, and it was far from the city to which it was convenient. Ji Chuanyi thought about it and decided to send Shu Tian off first, or he would have to go back and forth. "Thank you, Boss Ji." On the way, Shu Tian sobered up a little and thanked him awkwardly. "Nothing." Just in time for a traffic light intersection, Ji Chuanyi parked the car under the red light and turned to look at her. "What''s going on between you and Li Han?" "Ah..." Shu Tian looked at Ji Chuanyi in confusion. She did not know how to describe her rtionship with Li Han. It seemed that her rtionship with Li Han could not be discussed with Li Han''s best friend. Ji Chuanyi saw her embarrassed face and shook his head helplessly. "Forget it if you don''t think it''s easy to say. Li Han looks cold. In fact, he is also a kind person in his heart. If you know more about him, you will know." Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. Shu Tian didn''t understand why Ji Chuanyi said this to her, so she could only nod in agreement. "I know it." It was already early in the morning when the car arrived in Imperial Garden. Shu Tian got out of the car and did not forget to tell Ji Chuanyi to send Fu Qingtong home. "Boss Ji, actually, my friend is a small fan of yours. She admires you very much." Shu Tian didn''t lie. Fu Qingtong really admired him before. Ji Chuanyi didn''t take Shu Tian''s words seriously when he thought of how Fu Qingtong was yelling at him, "Don''t worry, I won''t leave her halfway. Go in." Shu Tian thanked him again and again, then turned around and walked towards the door. It was dark at night. Under the dim streemp, a cold wind passed by, and the branches swayed. Shu Tian could not help but wrap herself in her clothes. She stood at the door, stomped her feet and opened the door. She slipped in without looking back. And not far outside the gate, under a tree, the Bentley was parked quietly by the roadside, its lights all out. If it weren''t for the lowered window slits, one would have thought no one was inside. A cigarette butt was left on the ground outside the car window. No one knew how long the man had been here and how long he had been waiting. The man in the car watched the lights turn on and off in the vi before starting the car and leaving. ... Shu Tian had a big hangover which caused Shu Tian not to wake up the next day. It was already eight o''clock when she opened her eyes. She had to go to work at half past eight... She didn''t even have time to eat and change her clothes. She quickly washed her face and went out. However, even so, it was almost nine o''clock when she took a taxi to thepany. Shu Tian had expected her to be scolded severely, but to her surprise, Liu Wei was not in the office. She was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when she saw Zhang Rui''er approaching nervously, "Don''t be silly, go to the A3 conference room." Shu Tian was puzzled. "Ah?" Zhang Rui''er widened her eyes. "You won''t forget that there''s a new recruit exam today..." "Damn!" Shu Tian''s face fell. "I really forgot!" "Be quick. Take your usual documents and notes. It''s not toote. It''s only been more than 20 minutes. I heard that Boss Li is reviewing this assessment personally. See if you can sneak in." Shu Tian was already very flustered. When she heard that Li Han was sitting in the room himself, she became even more nervous. She even wanted to back down a little. "Can I ask for leave now?" Zhang Rui''er nodded. "I think you can resign now." Shu Tian was speechless. "All right, go quickly. Don''t think so much." Shu Tian had no choice but to pack up her things and walk nervously towards the A3 conference room. Step by step, the closer she got, the more uncertain she became. When she finally reached the door, she took a deep breath and knocked on the closed door. She was allowed to open the door and enter. There were two rows of people sitting inside therge conference room, and Li Han, whom she hadn''t seen for a few days, was sitting in the middle of the room. Shu Tian''s fingers curled up slightly. For the first time, she felt a little guilty under the gaze of so many "Who are you looking for?" Shu Tian cleared her throat. "I am a new employee who hase for an assessment..." As soon as she finished speaking, everyone frowned. Liu Wei, as her leader, also felt embarrassed. Coupled with her personal emotions, she criticized mercilessly. "Do you know when the assessment starts?" Shu Tian choked. "Half past eight." "What time is it now?" Shu Tian was speechless by the question and regretted why she had to drinkst night. "As a qualified employee, the most basic thing is to follow the rules and regtions and have a sense of time. If you can''t even do the most basic thing, you don''t have to test." Liu Wei spoke very harshly and did not treat Shu Tian as her employee. Not to mention protecting Shu Tian, Liu Wei was even the most ruthless to hit Shu Tian when she was down. Shu Tian was thin-skinned, and she was being scolded in public, then she flushed at thement. She lowered her head slightly and therefore missed the nces cast by the man in the main seat. The atmosphere in the conference room froze. Wu Mengfan watched the scene as if it was a good show. It seemed that she could beat Shu Tian without much effort. Thinking of this, she was visibly pleased. Li Han looked at the woman standing at the door, who was almost stiff. He had avoided her intentionally or unintentionally for more than a week. Today, he saw that she had lost some weight. Her small, palm-sized face was smaller and her chin was much sharper. She didn''t have a good life without him. This realization made the gloom in Li Han''s heart dissipate a little. He nced at Liu Wei, who was still criticizing Shu Tian. His brows were slightly twisted, and his fingers on the table moved slightly. Just as he was about to make a sound, a male voice sounded. "I was the one who asked Shu Tian to go back to get a document this morning. It might have taken some time. As a guidancewyer, I''m also responsible. This time, I''ll let you take part in the assessment. It won''t happen again, okay?" Chapter 53 Chapter 53 Shu Tian was stunned. When did Ye Junting ask her to help him with the documents... But the next second, she realized that he was helping her out. Shu Tian heaved a sigh of relief. "I''m sorry to keep everyone waiting." As a topwyer for the Hanyi Law Office, Ye Junting had already spoken. Naturally, no one would say anything more. Liu Wei could only pretend to be magnanimous and let Shu Tian sit down quickly. Shu Tian sat down and looked gratefully at Ye Junting, who didn''t look well. He red at her coldly and then began to look at the documents on the table. All of that was seen by Li Han. His face was so gloomy. Even Zhang Bikun, who was sitting beside Li Han, could feel it. No matter what, the assessment was still going smoothly. The neers from the other groups reported their work, and when it was Wu Mengfan and Shu Tian''s turn. Wu Mengfan volunteered to be the first to give Shu Tian more time to prepare. Shu Tian didn''t understand why Wu Mengfan was so kind. Only when she saw that Wu Mengfan''s PPT was on the projector did she understand why Wu Wengfan was the first to begin. Except for the part where they were in charge of thewsuit, the other parts on the PPT were almost the same as Shu Tian''s, and the personal summary was even simr. Shu Tian watched as Wu Mengfan spoke slowly. Shu Tian felt a little angry. She stared at Wu Mengfan''s smiling face. Wu Mengfan seemed to notice that and look at her in turn. Looking at Wu Mengfan, Shu Tian could clearly see the provocation and ridicule. Wu Mengfan stole her presentation material. After half an hour of speech, there was a round of apuse in the conference room, but Shu Tian couldn''t even lift her arms. Shu Tian''s reaction showed that she was petty-minded in the eyes of others. "Next one, Shu Tian." Shu Tian heard someone calling her name, and everything around her seemed to be gone. She clenched the USB sh disk in her hand, and it seemed to be ayer of cold sweat in her palms. She sat still in her seat. Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. "Shu Tian, it''s your turn." Ye Junting frowned slightly and whispered in her ear. Shu Tian looked at him and said helplessly. "I..." Seeing her abnormal reaction, Ye Junting noticed something strange. "What''s wrong?" Without waiting for Shu Tian to answer, the man sitting in the main seat suddenly said, "If you don''t dare to go up, we think you are willing to give up." Shu Tian felt nervous. She had no other choice. She got up and handed the USB sh disk to the clerk next to her. The PPT was disyed on the screen, and she heard other people''s doubts. Shu Tian looked at Wu Mengfan, who was smiling. Others'' ridicule upset and distracted her. She controlled her uneasiness and began to make her presentation calmly. Before she could turn the first page, she was stopped. "Your PPT content is the same as Wu Mengfan''s. If the rest is the same, you don''t have to repeat it." Shu Tian took a deep breath and said seriously: "Our PPT is actually different." "What does that mean?" "Because..." Shu Tian raised her hand and pointed at Wu Mengfan. "She stole my PPT content." "What nonsense are you talking about!" Wu Mengfan stood up from her chair with an unbelievable disguise. "If you don''t prepare seriously, why do you me me? Besides, I just finished my presentation. Did you mention the PPT content on purpose now?" "You''re done, but you''re not right." Shu Tian flipped through one of the pages of the PPT. "You can copy my content, but you can''t copy the thoughts I want to express." "You!" Wu Mengfan was so angry that she didn''t expect Shu Tian to expose her in public. Wu Mengfan panicked. "It''s unreasonable!" "You''ll know soon if it''s unreasonable or not." The two neers had such a farce in front of their leaders, and the impact was very bad, but Shu Tian insisted so everyone present could only listen to what Shu Tian presented. Shu Tian was originally very nervous, but she was relieved by this mess. No matter how bad the result was, it wouldn''t be worse than now. She just expressed her ideas. As for whether her presentation was good or not, it was none of Shu Tian''s business. The whole presentation was done. Although some opinions were indeed different from what Wu Mengfan said and had a deeper insight, seventy percent of the content was the same. It was really hard to say who made the copy. Shu Tian suddenly came up with an idea and found something wrong. "Wu Mengfan was just talking about the reception information, but I seem to know that you haven''t done any reception consulting work yet, have you?" Wu Mengfan''s expression changed slightly, and she couldn''t remember what Shu Tian was talking about. "What did you mean?" "You don''t know?" Shu Tian smiled. "It shows that it''s not your own PPT. You even don''t know what was wrong. You have finished your presentation, but you couldn''t remember the content? Wu Mengfan was speechless, and she became upset and nervous. The atmosphere was very awkward. In the end, it was Lawyer Ye helping her out, but there was no longer much favoritism. After all, it was an assessment, and all the leaders were there, so there was no time to verify who was right and who was wrong. However, for these two neers, there would definitely be a reduction in scores. Thinking for a little while, Li Han, who had been sitting quietly, suddenly spoke to Shu Tian. "You said your content was copied?" Shu Tian didn''t expect him to suddenly ask her and nodded. "Yes." "So you think you''re right?" Before Shu Tian could speak, he added, "As a legal worker, you can''t even protect your own private documents. How can I believe that you will protect the privacy of your clients?" He embarrassed Shu Tian. But Shu Tian was not his rival. She could not say a word that could fight back except to listen to him in a daze. "Not to mention that the content was stolen, your PPT isn''t the best. You should n everything and prepare another n, not turn it into a farce." He said coldly and strictly and everything had received a result just now. It was a farce? Shu Tian thought it was good enough for her to react and exin in such a situation, but in their eyes, it was just a farce? All her efforts were not recognized. Shu Tian felt aggrieved. She quickly made a disguise in case that people would find she was about to cry. "Both of you have no scores. If this happens again, get out of here." After saying that, Li Han stood up from his seat and stopped when he passed Ye Junting. "Also, the Hanyi Law Office doesn''t need such a leader who is not fair. The meeting is over." Li Han strode away, and the people in the conference room followed him. Shu Tian sat in her seat in a daze. When she saw Ye Juntinging over, she quickly said, "I''m sorry, Lawyer Ye. I want to be alone." After that, she turned around and left with the documents in her arms. She met Zhang Bikun who was returning, nodded slightly, and ran away quickly. Zhang Bikun took the report back to the president''s office and looked at his boss who was sitting at his desk with an icy face. He hesitated and whispered, "Boss Li, I just met Miss Shu. She seems to be crying..." Chapter 54 Chapter 54 Crying? The word shed through Li Han''s mind. Li Han frowned. He was wondering if he was being too harsh. On second thought, there was Ye Junting apanying her. Due to her temperament, Shu Tian probably wouldn''t let others see her being sad and tearful. Zhang Bikun was waiting for the boss''s instructions, but he didn''t expect that the boss said coldly, "Don''t worry." That...That was rare? Boss Li had always been kind to Miss Shu. Why did he suddenly... Zhang Bikun couldn''t know that Boss Li, who had always been as cold as ice, was jealous. After the examination, the news about Shu Tian and Wu Mengfan spread. No neer had ever created such a conflict, especially Shu Tian being criticized. In the tea room, Zhang Rui''er took a cup of coffee and was worried about Shu Tian. Suddenly, she heard the people next to her mocking Shu Tian. "What did I say before? How could a man like Boss Li be serious about a neer? It''s like what I have said now. Boss Li was probably tired of her, so he embarrassed her in public today." "I was there during the exam today. You don''t know how awkward it was. Boss Li didn''t scold her directly, but what he said was harsher than scolding. He said he wanted her to get out of here." "She deserves it. She''s doomed now." One of them lowered his voice. "By the way, is it true that Wu Mengfan stole her powerpoint?" "I don''t know. I guess that might be true. But no one would like a person like Shu Tian. It is reasonable to see suchthings happen to her..." Zhang Rui''er heard it and thought it was so ridiculous. She walked up to them and said, "What are you talking about? If you have the ability, say it in front of the person. Is it proud to whisper something bad behind one''s back?" The two people didn''t say anything due to the guilty, but the chief assistant in the same group ridiculed her, "Did I say anything about you?" "You also can''t ridicule others. You spread rumors and cause trouble every day. What has Shu Tian done to you? She''s usually polite to all of you. You''re unkind to her because you''re jealous of her!" Zhang Rui''er usually tolerated this, and Shu Tian tried to persuade her not to refute so that she had never said anything. But she couldn''t help it now. These women, due to their experience, qualifications, and record of service in thepany, always bossed around. A beautiful and capable woman like Shu Tian would definitely be a thorn in the flesh if she entered thepany. But she never thought that these people would say that. "Why am I jealous of her? She didn''t do well and was scolded. Aren''t we allowed to talk about it?" The woman put down the ss of water and gave Zhang Rui''er a hard look. "Aren''t you fawning on her? Let''s see who else you can fawn on in the future..." Zhang Rui''er wanted to say something else, but they had already walked away, leaving her standing alone and sulking. She took out her cell phone and called Shu Tian. There was still no answer, so she couldn''t help but start worrying again. Where the hell did she go? ... Shu Tian didn''t go back to her office. She left the conference room and took the elevator to the top floor of the building. On the 58th floor of a high-end office building, she felt that it was even colder than on the lower floors. It was a beautiful day. The sky was blue, and the white clouds were floating. She walked to the edge of the fence, propped her hands on the top, and looked down at the crowd and traffic below. She didn''t know if it was too windy, her eyes became blurry, gradually a crystal liquid falling down. Thinking of what had happened in the conference room, Shu Tian was angry and aggrieved. She shouted out and vented her anger out, "Li Han, bastard. Big pig-head. You are hypocritical. Avenge your personal wrong in the name of public interests! Scumbag!" As soon as she finished shouting, her throat was burning. Still feeling aggrieved, Shu Tian hammered the railing, and the depression in her heart could not be dissipated. He criticized her in front of so many people and really didn''t take her seriously. Even if he had a little affection for her, he wouldn''t be so cruel. Ever since she gave the video to Liu Lifang, he hadn''t looked at her directly, but she was only worried about the unborn child, not Tang Zechen. She had exined everything, and what else did he want? Or was he just looking for a reason to take her out? The more Shu Tian thought about it, the more confused she became. She sat down on the step, with her hands on her knees and her whole face in her arms. The phone in her pocket kept buzzing, but she never answered it. After venting her anger crazily, she became even more tired mentally and was exhausted. She didn''t know how to maintain her rtionship with Li Han. She thought it would only take a while for him to calm down, but from today''s situation, not only did he not calm down, but he became even angrier. Shu Tian did not understand what she had done to provoke him. Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. The feeling of being at a loss was too bad. She wanted to grab him but was not able to do anything. Shu Tian didn''t know how long she had been sitting there, but she felt the wind blowing through her body. She was the only one on the quiet rooftop, and suddenly there was the sound of opening the door not far away. She looked up and saw a ck figure walking towards the other steps with his back towards her. One step, two steps, the man crossed the railing and stood on the edge. Shu Tian''s eyes widened in surprise and she didn''t have time to think about it, rushing over. "Don''t, don''t be impulsive!" The man didn''t seem to have expected someone to suddenly rush out. When she saw Shu Tian, he was very surprised, and then he was more emotional and angrier. He held the railing with one hand and gestured at Shu Tian with the other. "Step back! None of your business!" "I do not interfere with your matter. I do not!" Shu Tian put her hands on both sides of her head. "I just wanted to ask why you came up too?" She was just here to calm down and vent. She actually bumped into the scene of a suicide. What a coincidence. With this chance, she should buy a lottery ticket or go home to make a puppet to curse Li Han. The man who was going to jump off the building was about 1.75 meters tall and medium build, with dark skin. He was wearing a ck jacket with a small logo on top, which was a luxury brand. He looked like a small boss. Shu Tian chatted with him for a while, and she found out that this man was here for he lost the case. Now that thewyer refused to appeal, so he lost his disappointment and wanted to suicide. "Don''t worry. I''m awyer. You can tell me if you need anything." The other party was obviously surprised. "Are you awyer?" "Yes." Shu Tian took out the work permit around her neck and showed it to him, taking two steps forward. "Look." "Hanyi Law Office..." The man read it out, and his expression, which had just rxed a little, suddenly became vignt again. "Are you from the Hanyi Law Office?!" At this time, Shu Tian had already called Zhang Rui''er while he was looking at her work permit. She put her phone in her pocket and didn''t know if the call had put through. She just talked to him, "Yes, so you... Ah-ah!" Before she could finish her sentence, the man suddenly jumped off the railing and walked straight towards her. In a few steps, he had already caught her. "My originalwyer is from the Hanyi Law Office, and you are unscrupulous businessmen!" Shu Tian was shocked. She never expected this to happen. Before she could run, he had dragged her to the edge of the fence. The height of the fifty-eighth floor made her dizzy... Chapter 55 Chapter 55 "Don''t worry. I''m awyer. You can tell me if you need anything." The other party was obviously surprised, "You said you are awyer?" "Yes." Shu Tian took out the work permit hung on her neck, and she took the chance to step forward to show him, "Look." "Hanyi Law Office..." The man read it out, and his expression, which had just rxed a little, became vignt again, "Are you from the Hanyi Law Office?!" At this time, Shu Tian had already called Zhang Rui''er while the man was looking at her work permit. She put her phone in her pocket and didn''t know if she had made a sessful call. She just talked to him, "Yes, so you... Hey, hey!" Before she could finish her sentence, the man suddenly jumped off the railing and walked straight towards her. In a few steps, he had already caught her, "My firstwyer is from the Hanyi Law Office, and you are all unscrupulous businessmen!" Shu Tian was shocked. She didn''t see thising. Before she could run, the man had nearly pulled her to the railing. The height of the fifty-eighth floor made her dizzy... Zhang Rui''er was worried and anxious in the office when she received a call from Shu Tian unexpectedly. She walked to the stairs and picked it up hurriedly, "Hello, Shu Tian?" There was no one talking on the other end of the phone, but only a flurry of noisy footsteps sounded. After a few seconds, a man''s voice was faintly heard. "Lawyers are all immoral. You earn money against your conscience. Even if I die, I will take you with me!" "Dude, calm down. Tell me, whichwyer is that? I can help you negotiate with him. There will always be a way out!" "No way!" The man was furious, "I won''t believe you. You''re all on the same team!" "Hey! Let go of me! This is the roof. If you fall, you will die. What will your family do then? Have you thought about them?" Zhang Rui''er did not know what that man had done to Shu Tian, but she could only hear Shu Tian screaming in panic. Zhang Rui''er was so scared that her face turned pale. She didn''t know who to ask for help when she was in a hurry. Coincidentally, she bumped into Ye Junting who was walking this way. She ran up to him, panting heavily, "Lawyer Ye, Shu Tian is in danger now!" Ye Junting didn''t remember Zhang Rui''er at all, "Who are you?" Zhang Rui''er didn''t have time to exin and lifted the phone next to his ear, "Listen!" The sound in the microphone was intermittent, and there was a lot of noise, but Ye Junting was still able to distinguish Shu Tian''s voice. "Calm down! Nothing will change even if you jump down. It''s meaningless for you to do this!" "I don''t need this to be meaningful. I just want justice! Lawyers all treat me perfunctorily, so I will never Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. let you off!" The fierce noise reached his ears, and Ye Junting''s face changed greatly. He took the phone directly and whispered to Zhang Rui''er, "Go to the security manager now and tell him to call the police. And get some people prepared for the rescue." Zhang Rui''er didn''t dare to demur. When she was about to say something else, Ye Junting had already disappeared. She was dumbfounded for a moment but didn''t dare to dy any longer. She immediately went to the security department as instructed. Countless disputes would happen tow firms every year, and it was normal for them whether awsuit was won or lost. As the most famous domesticw firm, it was more difficult for people to ept that Hanyi Law Office would lose a case. In the hearts of outsiders, Hanyi Law Office could only win but never lose. The disputes would ensue, but it was the first time that a colleague had been kidnapped like this. An ident that happened to the employees of thepany was a first-level security ident. It must be reported to the top leader of thepany, Li Han, not to mention that the ident happened on the roof of thepany building. The security manager had no right to call the president''s office directly, so he called Zhang Bikun first. Thetter was astounded by the call. Looking at the tightly closed doors of the conference room, he didn''t bother to knock but barged in directly. Li Han raised his eyes in displeasure and wanted to see who was so unruly, but he was surprised when he saw his assistante over. "Boss Li, I need to report something to you. Could you pleasee out for a second?" Zhang Bikun looked extremely flustered, which was rare when he was at work. At least for so many years, Li Han had not seen him so nervous about anything. Feeling that something big had happened, Li Han briefly instructed the vice president beside him and turned to leave the conference room. In Li Han''s office, Zhang Bikun looked at him and was hesitant to speak, "Boss Li, you must calm down Li Han frowned, "What''s the matter?" Zhang Bikun took a deep breath before he spilled out every word clearly, "Boss Li, the security manager just called and said that Miss Shu was kidnapped to the roof of the building by the man involved in awsuit." "What did you say?" Zhang Bikun looked into his eyes, "Five minutes ago, the security manager reported a first-level security ident. Now that Miss Shu is in danger, we have already called the police and sent someone to the rooftop, but we don''t have further details yet..." Countless emotions welled up in Li Han''s calm face. For the first time, panic appeared in his deep eyes. There was a buzz in his head, and he grabbed Zhang Bikun by the cor and shouted, "Say it again." Zhang Bikun had never seen Li Han lose control like this, and his breath was a little unsteady, "Boss Li, something happened to Miss Shu, and she is now on the roof..." Before he could finish speaking, the tight grip on his cor suddenly loosened. He was pushed away by an uncontroble force. By the time he stood firm, the man in front of him had already gone. ... On the roof of the building, half of Shu Tian''s body had been pulled out of the railing. If she had acrophobia, she would probably have fallen down out of fear without being pushed. The man was persistent and crazy and unreasonable, and his whole body was filled with resentment. The wind was strong, and the two of them were thin, so they might fall off at any time. Shu Tian was so scared. She had tried hard to persuade the man but failed. By the time she was about to be speechless, the door to the roof was pushed open again. Shu Tian looked up and saw that it was Ye Junting. The man who had imprisoned her was so excited that he lost his mind again, "Tell me, did you tell anyone else about this?!" Shu Tian was almost suffocating and struggling desperately to maintain her bnce. At the same time, Ye Junting was terrified by the scene in front of him, but he tried to keep calm and asked, "Dude, what are you doing?" The man waved an arm, "Are you with her?!" Ye Junting looked at Shu Tian with a puzzled expression and then shook his head. He replied, "I don''t know her. Do you have any disputes? I advise you not to do anything stupid." Shu Tian understood what he meant and echoed, "I''ve been chatting with you just now. I don''t have time to call at all. How can I inform others?" The man was skeptical, but fortunately, he didn''t continue to pull Shu Tian''s body out. Ye Junting was relieved secretly, "Let''s talk about it. Come here first. It''s so dangerous to stand there..." "Cut the crap!" The man yelled, "I didn''t want to go back alive today! These damnwyers, who take the money but do nothing, have ruined my family. I want them to pay with their lives!" Chapter 56 Chapter 56 Ye Junting had an idea. "Are you here because of thewsuit?" The man was very resistant, and his voice was full of resentment and anger. "Yes but so what!" "Buddy, this is such a coincidence. I''m here because of it too. Whichw firm represented you?" Ye Junting paused and then added, "I just came out of Hanyi Law Office. I was so upset about losing the Ye Junting''s tone was very calm as if he was just stating a fact, he really didn''t know her and it was just a coincidence. Even Shu Tian almost believed it. When the man heard that he had also lost a case, he was obviously stunned. "Whichwyer represented you?" Ye Junting blurted out in a second, "Lawyer Wu, Wu Wenyuan, from Hanyi Law Office. Did you know him?" "Wu Wenyuan?" The man was distracted. Shu Tian, furtively, nced at his hand that was holding her tightly. If she tried to break free now, she would have a chance to run away, but... She might also not be able to. As if seeing through Shu Tian''s mind, Ye Junting slightly shook his head, indicating that she should not act rashly. "I seem to have an impression... Mywsuit was handled by Liu Wei. Have you heard of her?" Perhaps the shared suffering distracted the man and rxed his vignce, so he couldn''t help but ask a few more questions. Liu Wei? When the name was mentioned, Shu Tian and Ye Junting looked at each other at the same time. Both of them were surprised. Unexpectedly, it was her. Ye Junting looked away with no change in his expression and continued to make up the story, "I know Liu Wei. She used to help me deal with my case before, but I was not satisfied with her work, so I changed to Wu Wenyuan." The man raised his tone. "You reced her? Was it because Liu Wei..." "She was useless." Ye Junting stared at the man''s expression and tried not to miss the slightest change, as if he was trying to understand all his emotions. "She had very bad performances in court. To tell you the truth, I''m going to sue her now." "You''re going to sue her? You''re crazy. She''s awyer with Hanyi Law Office. How could you have done anything to her?" "Anyway, I have nothing to worry about now that I lost thewsuit. If I had a hard time, I can''t let her get away with that either." Ye Junting slowly took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket. "Buddy, if you have any information about Liu Wei, you can also share it with me." Speaking of this, the man hadpletely bought the lie that Ye Junting had made up, and his mind had obviously been guided. At this moment, Ye Junting took out two cigarettes, held one by his lips, and handed the other to him. "How about one?" No man didn''t like smoking. Especially when he was extremely depressed, only cigarettes could relieve him. Looking at Ye Junting''s outstretched hand, the man did not reject the invitation, nor did he take it. Ye Junting took the opportunity to take two steps forward, and as he approached, the sharpness in his eyes gradually appeared... Almost. Just as the cigarette was about to touch the man''s fingertips, Shu Tian decisively twisted the man''s palm backward that was holding her arm. While being attacked out of the blue, the man did not have time to react at all and only felt a pain in his wrist. Her body freed from his control, Shu Tian ran forward happily. Unfortunately, she had only taken two steps forward before her hair was tangled by something. Her body shook and sheined about her own bad luck. She was about to break her hair regardless of the consequence when the man behind her suddenly and immediately grabbed her long hair that was swirled in the wind. Shu Tian took two big steps back and almost fell. The man''s eyes widened and his face twisted as he looked at Shu Tian and Ye Junting. "You tricked me. How dare you tricked me!" Ye Junting looked grim. "Stay calm!" "You''re all on the same team. ck-heartedwyers, you should all die!" The man''s emotion was even stronger than before, and the strength of his hands did not decrease. He wanted so bad to pull Shu Tian''s hair up by the roots. At the extremely critical moment, the door to the rooftop was pushed open again, and a tall and straight figure broke into sight. The man was only wearing a white shirt, and one of the hems of the shirt that had been tied up in his pants had already been exposed. It was not difficult to see how anxiously he had been running all the way. Li Han looked at the edge of the railing. It seemed that a gust of wind could blow away the two of them. His heart was instantly jerked, and the blood in his body became cold, flowing through his limbs and bones, straight to his heart. "Put her down." The man sounded very calm, as usual, without any trace of panic but with an inherent dignity that made people want to submit. Shu Tian didn''t know why he was here. All she knew was that when her eyes caught this familiar figure when she heard his deep voice, she immediately gave a sigh of relief. He was here. He did not ignore her, nor did he abandon her. He appeared in front of her at a time of life and death. This thought tore down all of Shu Tian''s disguise, and tears welled up in her eyes. She opened her eyes wide to prevent tears from falling down. She had never been a crybaby, but she was especially vulnerable when facing him. "Impossible. I didn''t n to go back alive today!" The man changed his position and directly grabbed Shu Tian''s neck. She was forced to look up at the blue sky above her head. She felt dizzy. "If you want to jump off a building, let her go first. No one will stop you from death." Li Han''s voice was This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. cold and heartless, without any intention of persuading him. He didn''t care if this man was going to die or not. All he cared about was the woman. It seemed that he did not expect Li Han to say so, so the man was stunned. Ye Junting was a little surprised. Afraid that this would make the kidnapper even angrier, he quickly dissuaded him. "I promise you, yourwsuit will be appealed again until you are satisfied. Youe down first and we''ll sit down and talk." "Hahaha!" Hearing this, the man suddenly gave out madughter and pointed at Ye Junting''s face with extreme excitement. "Do you think I will still believe you? Go to hell!" In a lightning-sh moment, the man seemed to have been started with a button pressed. Without any hesitation, he grabbed Shu Tian''s body and jumped straight down. The manpletely disappeared from sight, along with the slender figure in his arms... "Shu Tian!" "Shu Tian!" Two male voices let out a cry at the same time, cutting through the quiet rooftop, leaving silence behind. Li Han''s eyes were about to crack. He watched her disappear in front of him. He could not hear anything around him. The cold wind cut through his eyes that looked like they had been soaked in blood. Looking at the empty tform, his heart seemed to be empty at this moment. As the petite figure fell, countless sadness poured out after his heart was smashed. He seemed to be nailed to the ground, unable to move. His tall and straight body gradually bent down, shaking like a withered branch in the wind. Chapter 57 Chapter 57 Ye Junting was the first to react. He pounced on the railing. He had thought what would greet him was a dreadful spectacle, but unexpectedly, what he saw was a huge orange air cushion. He saw people in red and orange outfits bustling around on the ground, white stretchers, and police cars parked aside. All of a sudden, the strength in his body was pulled away. Ye Junting copsed on the ground and leaned back against the dusty railing behind him, "Okay... She''s okay..." Ye Junting looked up at Li Han, only to meet a pair of red eyes. Ye Junting was stunned because he had never seen Li Han like this, "Boss Li..." The man''s cheeks moved slightly, as if he was clenching his teeth, "Where is she?" Ye Junting heaved a sigh of relief, "The police and the firemen are here. There''s an air cushion below. Shu Tian is fine." After that, the man in front of him turned around and left without staying for another second. He didn''t even cast a nce at the ground as if he was escaping from something. Even though he knew that she was fine, he still refused all possible illusions. ... Shu Tian fell from the high-rise. Even if there was an air cushion below, the impact and gravity were still very strong. The moment she had fallen, she had gone into aa. She was sent to the Ling''s Hospital. When Li Han arrived, she had already been pushed into the emergency room. Ling Junze took charge personally, and all the internal medicine specialists gathered in the operating room. Seeing that the red light of the emergency room on the wall was lit, Li Han felt even more depressed. He took out a cigarette and lit it. His gloomy face was veiled by the white smoke. None of the medical staff passing by dared to stop him. Everyone knew that this Mr. Li was a friend of Director Ling''s. Besides, the one who had just been pushed in was a young woman, and they must be closely rted. At a moment like this, no one dared to irritate him. However, that man lowered his eyes, and the hand that kept sending the cigarette to his mouth was trembling slightly, as if he was depressed to the bone. His gaze fell casually on some spot, and he was in a trance, as if the scene that had just happened on the rooftop was still in front of him. He had lived for 32 years. Ever since his parents had divorced when he was 16, he had not shed a single tear for anyone. No matter how difficult the situation he was in and how painful he was, even if he had to shed blood, he had survived without shedding a single tear. But today, when he had seen her fall in front of him, his eyes had grown misty. If something really happened to her, what would he do? Li Han asked himself, but he couldn''te up with an answer. All he knew was that he would never let off the man who had kidnapped her and make him regret that he hade to this world. All of the impulse came from his feelings for the woman in the emergency room. They were intense, turbulent and uncontroble. It had only been for that body that had interested him, but now he also paid attention to her as a person. It was at this moment that Li Han realized that unconsciously, he should have feelings for her beyond entanglement. His thin lips parted slightly and he took a deep puff of the cigarette. The pungent gas exploded in his nostrils, but it kept him awake and rational. An hourter, the door of the emergency room was pushed open again. Ling Junze walked towards him as he took off his mask, "She''s fine. She had a mild concussion and was extremely frightened. She has been hospitalized. Although it''s not serious, it''s still inconvenient for her to stay at home." The man nodded, stubbed out the cigarette against the lid of the trash can next to him, and threw it away. Ling Junze looked at the smoke around him and sighed silently, "No matter what, you are in the hospital. You should stay away if you must smoke." The man didn''t answer but only asked, "Is she awake?" "Not yet. Just go in and check on her." Ling Junze turned sideways to make way for him. Li han stood still and looked over as if he could see the person lying on the bed through the door. Ling Junze waved his hand to dismiss the medical staff behind him, patted Li Han on the shoulder and moved closer, "Are you two still bickering?" "No." Ling Junze thought he was being stubborn, "Stop pretending. She''s a little girl, so just be amodating..." "I have feelings for her." Ling Junze''s voice stopped abruptly, and his face froze. The rest of his words were stuck in his mouth. He turned to cast a look at the ward, "What did you say?" It was now that Li Han stared straight at him, "I might have feelings for Shu Tian." Ling Junze was very surprised to hear Li Han admit it personally. If this ident could make Li Han realize his feelings, it would not be too bad, but... "Do you really like Shu Tian?" "I don''t know. It''s just that when I saw her fall, I was a little out of control." Out of control. Ling Junze gulped. Thest time he had seen him out of control... Sorry, he hadn''t seen it at all. So now there was finally someone who could melt Li Han, this iceberg, and make him human? "Why don''t you two have a good talk when she wakes up?" "No, don''t tell her I''ve been here. I''ll talk to her when I figure it out." Before Ling Junze could ask what he wanted to figure out, the man turned around and left. Seeing that tall and straight figure disappear at the end of the corridor, Ling Junze shook his head slightly and thought of how Li Han looked when he had arrived at the hospital just now. Li Han had been worn and pale. Although he had tried his best to remain calm, he could deceive others but not Ling Junze, who had been friend with him for so many years. He cared too much about the woman in the ward, but he was so closely involved in the situation that he was confused. ... When Shu Tian woke up again, she opened her eyes and actually saw Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei. She tried to move her body, but before she could get up, she felt a strong sense of dizziness in her head. Hearing the noise from the bed, Ye Lihua walked to the bedside immediately, "Tian, are you awake?" Shu Tian fought back the nausea brought by the dizziness and asked in a dry voice, "Mom, where am I?" "In the hospital!" Shu Changlei also came up to her. Looking at her pale face, he couldn''t help but feel This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. heartbroken, "How many times have I told you not to meddle in other people''s business outside home? Why wouldn''t you listen to me? Since the situation was so dangerous, why did you even go there? If something really happened, how could your mother and I survive?" When receiving the news that Shu Tian had fallen from the rooftop, he and Ye Lihua had almost been scared to death. Fortunately, she was fine, but the old couple was still frightened. "Dad, mom, I''m fine." "You''re fine? You have a mild concussion. If it had got worse, you would have be a fool!" Ye Lihua scolded her and felt sorry for her. She had such a panic fear even after the ident. Shu Tian knew they were worried andforted them in a soft voice, "Don''t worry. I''ll definitely stay away from this kind of situation when I meet one in the future." Only when she promised them that the old couple was relieved a little. Shu Tian looked around inside the ward. It was a separate room with high-end interior design. Besides a separate toilet, there was even arge separate lobby. She dropped her eyelids and couldn''t help but ask, "Mom, is my colleague here too?" "He''s already gone. He helped us arrange the ward and said that we don''t have to worry about the follow-up expenses. Thepany has taken care of it. I think that young man is handsome and talented." Shu Tian was a little touched, "Where is he?" "He left after everything was done. He said that he still had business to attend to in thepany. After all, he is the security manager, and the police might have to go over and look into the case." Security manager? Shu Tian''s hope, which had just arised from the bottom of her heart, was dampened by these words. Self-deprecating, she smiled to herself. So it was not him. Chapter 58 Chapter 58 Because Shu Tian''s injury involved the keywords like "Hanyi Law Office" and "jumping off the building", it immediately became the headline of the day after being leaked by someone. Some people said that the Hanyi Law Office did something wrong, so that man chose to jump off that building. There were also people who said that the party was not reasonable in the first ce. He was deliberately looking for trouble and wanted to get somepensation. For a moment, there were different opinions and rumors. Various reporters waited at every exit of the building every day to block Li Han. Even if they couldn''t block Li Han, they wished they could block anyone of the Hanyi Law Office. However, the Hanyi Law Office people were always very conscious and professional, and no one would take the initiative to say anything. With the help of the Hanyi Law Office''s public rtions methods, the heat had subsided a little in a few days. Li Han had ordered that this matter should not be rted to Shu Tian, so from beginning to end, Shu Tian had been on the neglected side. But one day, an unknown small media suddenly published a story about Li Han and Shu Tian, which ignited all the heat and put Shu Tian at the forefront of the storm. Her identity, her marriage, and her divorcewsuit were all exposed to the public as if they had formed many stories. People guessed and wrote, but no one cared about the truth. Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei didn''t tell her about this thing, and Shu Tian didn''t know about it until her body was almost recovered. She identally saw the news on her phone and understood what had happened these days. Without any dy, Shu Tian read all the reports about this matter, and she found many details that only the parties knew were also revealed. The things including how she joined the Hanyi Law Office, some of her previous personal experience, and even her divorce with Tang Zechen were exposed to the public. Li Han was the president of the Hanyi Law Office, her boss, and also thewyer dealing with divorce cases. All those subtle elements umted caused people to have some association easily. Shu Tian became an unruly woman, and Li Han was also tarnished and suspected. However, this society had always been tolerant of men. So there were more people scolding Shu Tian than that of scolding him. For just a few days, she suddenly became the center of the storm. And no one with a brain would believe that there wasn''t any maniptors behind it. Shu Tian tried to contact Li Han, but she couldn''t get through to him. From the day when the ident happened until now, she had been in the hospital for six days, and her body had basically returned to normal, but he never showed up. He had broken into her life in a sudden before, and now his disappearance was also so sudden. Shu Tian had a feeling that she was on the edge, and she didn''t even know whom to talk to. One night, when Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei went home to pack things, Ji Chuanyi suddenly appeared at the door of the ward. Shu Tian was a little surprised and quickly got up to greet him, "Boss Ji, why are you here..." Ji Chuanyi waved his hand, "It''s fine. Just sit down. " He looked around the ward and sat on the chair beside the bed, "How''s your body now?" "I''ve almost recovered." When facing Ji Chuanyi alone, Shu Tian was still very reserved. After all, he was her immediate superior and knew her rtionship with Li Han. She always had more considerations. "You don''t have to take me as an outsider. It''s Li Han who is worried about you. He asked me toe over to visit you." Ji Chuanyi lied with his expression unchanged. Afraid that she might not believe him, he exined, "There are reporters outside now. It''s not convenient for him toe here." Shu Tian was stunned, "He asked you toe?" "That''s right. Did you two quarrel?" Ji Chuanyi was the kind of man who looked very gentle and considerate, but he would also have a slight sense of alienation. It was easy for Shu Tian to trust him when he was approachable and chatting with her now. "How did you know?" Ji Chuanyi sneered from the bottom of his heart. Because recently, he was almost tortured to death by Li Han. He asked him to attend social engagements every evening. He almost did everything except bringing the clients home for the night. Heined in his heart, but he was still smiling gently, "I heard Li Han mention it before. Was it because of your ex-husband?" Shu Tian did not expect Li Han would tell others about this. Since someone had known about it, she no longer covered it up. There was no one to talk to for so many days. At this time, she could not help but "He always thought I was doing it for Tang Zechen, but I just pitied that child." "Child?" Ji Chuanyi smiled helplessly and asked her meaningfully, "Do you know who released this news?" Shu Tian''s eyes met his gaze, but neither of them spoke. There was no need to say more. It happened so suddenly and so strangely. In fact, there were not many suspects. There was only one left. Ji Chuanyi nodded, "That''s right, it''s Tang Zechen." Shu Tian pursed her lips slightly. She was not surprised by the result. She had thought of it before and only wanted to confirm. But if Ji Chuanyi said so, Tang Zechen must have done it. He really was willing to do everything to ruin her reputation. "Many of those reports are not true." Shu Tian thought that Ji Chuanyi was looking for her to make an usation. "I know." He did not intend to know more details. Instead, he said, "So Li Han had previously ced the case in Lawyer Wu''s hands because he expected Tang Zechen might do so." Shu Tian was confused, "What?" It turned out that he had handed thewsuit to Lawyer Wu not because he was angry that she gave the video to Liu Lifang, but because he thought of these... "If he didn''t act like this, there''s no room for rification now." Ji Chuanyi changed the subject, "The reason why he was angry was not just because you gave the video to Liu Lifang, but because you trusted the Tang family easily. If that woman was really pregnant, how could they range against you desperately?" Shu Tian suddenly looked up, "You mean Jiang Mengyao is not pregnant at all?!" Ji Chuanyi didn''t say anything, but his attitude made it clear. These days, they had known something about what Tang Zechen had done, and this was one of them. Li Han was not surprised when he found this out. To be exact, he never had believed it, but he did not reject Shu Tian''s request to hand over the video because all he cared about was her attitude. Obviously, Shu Tian''s reaction made the man a little disappointed. Ji Chuanyi looked at her and suddenly became serious, "Actually, Li Han is not as perfect as the outside world has thought he is. He once had a very dark time. When he was sixteen, his parents divorced, and then he had a new family and a younger sister. He was like an extra part of the family. He lived a very poor life and had to live on the subsistence allowances. Then he became awyer and got better. He went abroad to study and did three jobs a day. This is Li Han that I know." "A sister?" Shu Tian was shocked for she had never heard him mention anything about his family. Original content from N?velDrama.Org. "Abroad." Ji Chuanyi did not say much and his eyes were deep, "Do you know why he became a Shu Tian couldn''t say a word and her pupils were shaking violently. Chapter 59 Chapter 59 "Because he didn''t want to see anyone like his mother who couldn''t get divorced and get rid of her husband until she was at her middle age." Shu Tian had never thought that he had such a pitiful past. In her eyes, he was God''s favored one, being so bright and handsome that he was destined to be different from the moment he was born. He should have been a young master that was born superior and grew footloose, with prominent family background. How could he... Ji Chuanyi met her surprised eyes. He also felt mixed feelings inside, "Everything he owns today is the result of his own effort, not born with." A person with no background and no backstage couldn''t have made such achievements just at the mercy of chance and luck, especially in the legal profession, although there were plenty of people who can make it, but how many of them ended up with good ends? Dealing with all those shrewd and calcting old foxes was difficult. Except for his gorgeous Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. appearance, how bitter it was, perhaps nobody would know except himself. Shu Tian was heartbroken. She was so regretful for her prejudices and those unreasonable assumptions, but... Her eyes flickered. She thought about the phone call that day. Actually, what she cared most about was the unidentified woman on the other end of the phone. She didn''t want to be petty, so she told Ji Chuanyi in the most indirect way she coulde up with. She didn''t expect that he didn''t wait for her to finish. He raised his hand and interrupted, "Li Han couldn''t have another woman. You don''t have to worry about that." Shu Tian couldn''t understand why he was so sure. Looking at her puzzled little face, Ji Chuanyi''s tone was a little grave, as if it was hard for him to talk about. He paused for a moment and said, "When he was a child, his parents divorced and he was forced to go to a boarding school. He was harassed there. He had no other woman except you." Shu Tian was greatly stunned. Harassment? Was that what she thought? He was supposed to be a junior high school student then, but he was sent to such a horrible ce. Shu Tian did not even dare to imagine the scene. As long as she thought about it, her heart would ache as if it was tightly clenched. She would rather misunderstand him than hear a truth like this. "I shouldn''t have told you these things, but he was really painful inside. Shu Tian. I hope you can understand him." Li Han didn''t want anyone to take pity on him. He was used to showing his strongest side, but he also lost the ability to love and be loved. For so many years, he was like an invulnerable and indestructible stone, but the desire for warmth inside had never changed. He was thirty-two years old, mature enough, and it was time for him to find apanion. Time would not erase the painful things that had happened before, but a new beginning would. Ji Chuanyi hoped that Shu Tian would be the one who couldfort him. "I don''t know..." Shu Tian''s eyes turned red. She thought her current situation was unfortunate enough, but what Li Han had experienced was a hundredfold of her suffering. She was now an adult and could be responsible for her actions, but he was just a child then. How desperate had he been? No wonder Li Han never epted the cases for divorce. Things would develop in the opposite direction when they became extreme. Because of his painful experience, he entered this industry, but he never wanted to experience such pain again. In fact, she never really understood him. Subconsciously, people would always express themselves first, forgetting to listen. Ji Chuanyi patted her on the shoulder tofort her, "The past is the past. He''s not that vulnerable. The present him is the real him. I am telling you these just in the hope that you can understand him. He''s a chauvinist, but he cares about you inside. As long as you could understand him, he won''t have any temper." Shu Tian didn''t care about anything else at this time. She nodded immediately, "I misunderstood him. It was my fault anyway." Ji Chuanzhu thought she must have some petty intrigues, but he didn''t expect that she was so simple. For a moment, he trusted Shu Tian more, "Well, I''ll ask around about his recent whereabouts indirectly and let you know then." Shu Tian beamed, "Thank you, Boss Ji." Ji Chuanyi waved, "We are friends. Stop calling me Boss Li. Call me Brother Chuanyi from now on." Although Shu Tian was a little awkward, she still called out obediently, "Brother Chuanyi." "All right, have a good rest. I''ve just asked Junze that you would be discharged in two days. Don''t worry, Li Han and I would help with the public rtions." Shu Tian was very grateful. She stood at the door and didn''t turn back until Ji Chuanyi disappeared from her sight. ... If she had been anxious for all sorts of trivial things before, then Ji Chuanyi''s arrival undoubtedly gave Shu Tian a reassurance. Two dayster, when she was discharged, Ling Junze prescribed a lot of health medicine without side effects to her. It was developed by his own independent research center, not avable on the market. Shu Tian thought that although she had never taken advantage of Li Han, his friends were really good to her. It was just that she had never seen Li Han during all her time in hospital. Now that she still had to hide from the gossip, she couldn''t go to thepany. Moreover, Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua were worried about her, so she was taken back to HongYuan Community. That man seemed to have disappeared from her life, and they had returned to the previous state. Until one day, Shu Tian saw thepany''s statement on the official website of the Hanyi Law Office-- "In view of various media spection and assumption in recent days, the Hanyi Law Office has the following statement." "First, Shu Tian is indeed an employee of ourpany. She did not enter the Hanyi Law Office by abnormal means, but by the ritual social recruitment that held twice a year. She has not passed the internship period yet and there were no ''hidden rules''." "Second, Mr. Li Han wasn''t in charge of Shu Tian''s divorce case, but ourwyer, Wu Wenyuan. He can further certify this." "Third, Li Han, the chairman and the general manager of the Hanyi Law Office, has no improper rtionship with Shu Tian." "Fourth, regarding the rumor, we will probe it to the bottom and investigate the relevant media and personnel. Please supervise the follow-up development and stay tuned." The statement was short and clear, ending with a red seal of the Hanyi Law Office. Shu Tian heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she was amazed at Li Han''s meticulousness. He could already know that Tang Zechen would y tricks. She thought that no matter how rogue Tang Zechen was, he would not use his child to gain sympathy. It turned out that she still did not know him. In order to achieve his goal, he would do whatever he could. She even felt sorry for Jiang Mengyao that she was just a tool to Tang Zechen. Did he really love Jiang Mengyao? No, he only loved himself. Shu Tian sat on the sofa in a daze. The phone in her hand suddenly vibrated. She received a message including an address: VIP room 005, Muse Club, No.72 Jiangyan Road, and one sentence, "Li Han is here tonight." Sender: Ji Chuanyi Shu Tian felt a thump inside, followed by an irregr and raced heartbeat. She stared at the message for a while, then locked the phone and left it on the table. She leaned back onto the sofa, staring nkly at the ceiling. He was there tonight. Go, or not? Chapter 60 Chapter 60 If she didn''t go, she didn''t know when she would see him. But she didn''t know if it was because of Ji Chuanyi''s words that she was eager to see that man. But if she went... Thinking of what might happen, Shu Tian was a little nervous. She was afraid that Li Han would still ignore her. In addition, she might be too nervous to say anything when facing him. Shu Tian suddenly thought of something. She got up from the sofa and ran to the cloakroom on the second floor. There were autumn clothes Li Han had bought for her before. After looking at them for a long time, she took out a ck tweed suit and looked at herself in the mirror. The size of the suit was very suitable for her. ck was an easy matching color and it added maturity to her. She put it on and spun around. She was satisfied with her clothes. She and Li Han hadn''t seen each other for a while. She didn''t know how he would react when he saw her. Would he be astonished? Or surprised? Thinking of this, Shu Tian gritted her teeth secretly. No matter what happened tonight and whether she could see him, she decided to give it a try. After all, he had done so many things for her. As Ji Chuanyi said, someone had to first eat his words. ... At eight o''clock in the evening, Shu Tian appeared at the entrance of the Muse Club on time. After getting out of the taxi, she didn''t even ask for change. Looking at the magnificent building in front of her, she tugged at the hem of her clothes uneasily. She ran over on impulse, but when she reached the ce, she became timid. However, since she was here, there was no reason not toe in. She didn''t want to back down when she just needed to take the final step. Shu Tian walked towards the club but was stopped by two guards at the door. One of them asked her politely, "Madam, please show me your membership card." Membership card? Shu Tian was a little embarrassed. Ji Chuanyi didn''t tell her that this club was for members only before she came here. She had never been here before, not to mention being a member. Shu Tian coughed dryly and let him understand by reasoning while moving him with emotion, "I''m sorry. I''m here to find someone. My friend is inside. I''lle out as soon as I could." The guard smiled apologetically, "I''m sorry. We can''t let you in without a membership card. You can ask your friend toe out and pick you up." If he coulde out to pick me up, should I sneak up on him? Shu Tian cursed him secretly in her heart. How could it be so difficult to meet him? With a smile on his face, Shu Tian softened his voice and even acted coquettishly, "Can you make an exception in my favor. I don''t look like a bad person and I can''t do anything. If you''re really worried, you cane in with me..." As Shu Tian was speaking, a shadow suddenly appeared behind him, and then two guards called out respectfully, "Mr. Li!" Shu Tian''s smile froze on her lips, and even her body froze. How could she so unfortunate to meet him at this moment? He didn''t hear what she had just said, right? She might as well pretend that they just met by chance. Would Li Han make fun of her if he knew that she hade here on purpose? Shu Tian took a deep breath, and the moment she turned around, her heart was beating fast. A tall and slender figure appeared in her eyes. He wore a customized suit pant and paired them with his usual ck business leather shoe. It was right the man she kept longing for. However, Li Han, on the other hand, seemed to see a stranger. His eyes only fluttered around her and he quickly moved away. His voice was cold, "Get out of the way." Perhaps his voice was too cold, or perhaps his eyes were too unfamiliar. Shu Tian subconsciously took a step aside. By the time she realized it, the man had disappeared at the door. Ji Chuanyi, who stood beside Li Han, winked at her and followed him in. The moment Li Han passed by, his face had changed. He was so meticulous that he immediately guessed what had happened. He said softly, "You told her?" Ji Chuanyi neither admitted nor denied it, "Since she hase here, let her in first." Li Han did not say anything, but his thin lips curled into a slight smile. For fear that Li Han wouldn''t be able to hear what he said clearly, Ji Chuanyi took two quick steps and sighed, "There are all kinds of peopleing and going here. She looks so innocent and harmless. What if someone abducts her when she is left alone? I''m really worried..." The man next to him suddenly stopped. Without stopping, Ji Chuanyi subconsciously took a step Original content from N?velDrama.Org. forward and realized that he had passed Li Han. He raised his hand and touched his nose before walking back to where Li Han was. "Let the driver send her back." "I''m not in charge of passing the message. Do it by yourself." Li Han narrowed his eyes slightly, "Ji Chuanyi." "Well, you have to hurry. You''ll be sorry if she is abducted." The waiter, who was in charge of leading the guests, awkwardly shifted his gaze elsewhere. He silently said to himself that he didn''t hear anything. After a long time, a sharp light shed through Li Han''s eyes. Hiding the unnaturalness on his face, he left behind a cold sentence, "Let her in." When Ji Chuanyi watched him walk away, he was relieved and quickly asked the waiter to bring Shu Tian in. Looking at her slender figure, he suddenly felt a little distressed, "Are you okay?" Shu Tian shook her head, "I''m okay." "Okay, do you want to go to the room by yourself ore in with me?" Shu Tian was still nervous, "Brother Chuanyi, will there be many peopleter? Will it be inconvenient for me to be there?" "There will be two or three peerster. They are colleagues, nothing inconvenient. I''ll say you''re my friend." Ji Chuanyi nced at her again, "As long as you''re ready." Shu Tian hesitated for a moment before nodding, "I''ll go in with you." Ji Chuanyi didn''t expect her to be so brave and smiled, "Okay." So, Li Han just sat down in the private room for a while and saw his good friend bring his girlfriend into the private room. They had reached a consensus that they wouldn''t bring a femalepanion before, but suddenly a beautiful girl came, so everyone bantered with Ji Chuanyi. "Boss Ji, didn''t wee to an agreement that we wouldn''t bring a femalepanion? You have gone back on your words." Said a man wearing ck sses. The man in a blue jacket next to him echoed, "Yeah, hurry up and introduce this beauty to us." Ji Chuanyi put his hand on Shu Tian''s shoulder politely and gently pushed her forward, "This is my friend, Shu Tian." After that, he introduced them to Shu Tian one by one, "Liu Peng, Zhang Yajun, just call them Brother Peng and Brother Jun respectively." He deliberately said thest half of the sentence and let it heard by Li Han, who was sitting in the middle, without saying a word. Shu Tian was obedient and shouted, "Hello, Brother Peng, Brother Jun." "Hey, hello. Come on and sit down!" The man who called Brother Jun patted the seat beside him. Shu Tian smiled and unconsciously looked at the man sitting in the middle. She didn''t expect him to look at her too. When the eyes of the two of them met, her heart beat faster. She quickly retracted her gaze, only hearing her heartbeat. Chapter 61 Chapter 61 Although he seemed to be calm and dominant, he didn''t feel well actually. Especially now, seeing Shu Tian sitting next to Brother Jun, he almost wanted to kill them. However, he had no choice but to hold back. He deserved it! He pretended to be strong when he was unable to deal with it. He deserved it. Sooner orter, he would have internal injuries! Ji Chuanyi didn''t care about him. From time to time, he talked to Liu Peng and Zhang Yajun. asionally, Li Han cut in or was asked for advice. Shu Tian always looked at Li Han wittingly or unwittingly, but she never had a chance to talk with him alone. Shu Tian did not forget her purpose. When she was anxious, she heard a slightly pompous voice of a man. "Miss Shu, can you drink?" Suddenly, Zhang Yajun, who was beside her, approached a little and whispered in her ear. She sniffed the strange smell. Shu Tian, who was going to look at Li Han, was startled and trembled. Zhang Yajun felt her and raised his hand to help her back. "Are you okay?" Shu Tian moved aside to avoid his hand without showing her intention. She raised her hand and set the broken hair in her ear. "Yes. I''ll go to the bathroom." Shu Tian made an excuse and ran out of the room. Shu Tian had just left, and Li Han drank up the western wine and left in less than half a minute. Zhang Yajun looked at Ji Chuanyi inexplicably. "What does Boss Li mean?" Ji Chuanyi narrowed his eyes and smiled slyly. He silently mourned for Zhang Yajun for two seconds. "You just scared the girl. Boss Li is going tofort her." "..." Zhang Yajun''s face instantly turned pale. "Uh, uh... I don''t know, I don''t know she is..." "Don''t panic, I didn''t say anything." After saying that, Ji Chuanyiughed more slyly, which made Zhang Yajun tremble. Liu Peng sat beside him and swallowed his saliva. Fortunately, he didn''t say anything just now. ... After escaping from the room which she couldn''t bear, Shu Tian stood in front of the pool and reached under the sensing faucet, allowing the cold water to wash away her wrist, in which the artery was throbbing. She lowered her head and thought about Li Han''s being lukewarm just now. She thought Li Han was usually indifferent enough, but she was wrong. When he was determined to ignore her, he was really callous. Ever since she appeared, he had seldom looked at her as if he had not noticed her at all. Shu Tian looked up at herself in the mirror. She had delicate light makeup on her palm-sized face. The ck suit matched her figure, but she was not confident at this time. Just as she was lost in thought, she heard the sound of flushing suddenly from the partition. Then she heard a woman''s deliberately lowered voice. "Hey, Huang Jiaxin came today. Did you see her?" The other person echoed, "Yes. She is so high-profile that I can''t even pretend not to notice." "Do you know what she''s doing here?" "How can I know? No one''s willing to stay with her now. She''s a disgrace." After saying that, the woman paused for a moment and said uncertainly, "But I heard that she came for Li Han." "Li Han?" Shu Tian didn''t want to eavesdrop, but she heard his name the moment she was about to leave. "Yes, I heard from a friend that Huang Jiaxin is going to seduce Li Han tonight. But I don''t know how she can make it." "Will Li Han like her? No, it''s only possible when she drugs him." The woman said angrily, "She wouldn''t really do that, would she?" "Hey, I remember that she bought a drug from a friend of mine. Would she..." Shu Tian didn''t want to listen to what they were going to say. Thinking that he might be drugged, Shu Tian was so anxious that she immediately returned to the private room. She opened the door but didn''t find him. "Brother Chuanyi, where''s Li Han?" Ji Chuanyi raised his eyebrows. "When you left, he followed you out. Didn''t he look for you?" Shu Tian frowned and wanted to exin to Ji Chuanyi, but she was afraid that she would get into trouble. She shook her head. "I''ll go out for a while." After that, she left in a hurry without waiting for Ji Chuanyi''s reply. She ran across two women dressed in avant-garde clothes from the bathroom. It was probably the two who had just spoken. Shu Tian calmed down and followed them to another private room. She took a deep breath and walked straight in after them. It was dim in the room. She could vaguely see the three men and four women on the sofa. She swept over and found the familiar one. He held a ss of wine that had been poured by a third with slender fingers. He was going to drink it. He was stunned to see her as if he was wondering why she would appear here. Drug. The word shed through her mind. Shu Tian pushed the people beside her away and rushed over. She grabbed the ss from his hand and panted quickly. She tried to be calm, "Stop drinking. You''ve drunk a lot." He frowned and looked at her little face, which flushed from nervousness. After only two seconds, he pushed her hand away to take the ss. Shu Tian panicked and raised her voice. "You can''t drink anymore." Li Han stared at her beautiful face and said impatiently, "Get out." Other people were stunned by the scene for a moment, but they realized what happened quickly. Since Li Han asked her to go out, they shouldn''t be polite. "Hey, who are you? Are you in the wrong room?" "Girl, are you drunk? Didn''t you hear that Young Master Li asked you to leave? Are you going to leave by yourself, or let us help you?" Shu Tian didn''t care what they said at all. She held the ss and was at loggerheads with Li Han. "Young Master Li, is this your friend?" Suddenly, a graceful woman in a low-necked tight-fitting dress sat over. She had long hair and big eyes. And her chest couldn''t be covered by her falling hair. Shu Tian thought she was hot, let alone men. But Li Han didn''t even look at her, and said coldly, "No." No. Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. Shu Tian bit her lips gently and then smiled briefly. She was not relieved. She looked aside and quickly looked back at him in front of her. Shu Tian, why did youe here to humiliate yourself? When she saw that the woman put her hand on Li Han''s shoulder, her different emotions burst. She held the ss more tightly. Her almond eyes shone brightly under the light with a damp mist. "Okay, you want to drink, don''t you?" Li Han was thinking about what she was going to do when he saw Shu Tian drunk up the wine directly. The high alcohol whiskey slid down her throat. Shu Tian choked, but she still drank it up. With a bang, she put the ss on the table without a pause and turned to leave the room. Li Han suddenly frowned. The people in the private room were joking as usual with music. Huang Jiaxin snuggled up to him and half of her body pressed against his arm. Li Han looked at the ss with her light red lip print. He took it, raised his hand, and threw it out. The crystal ss crashed into the wall and broke into sharp pieces. For a moment, everyone was silent and no one dared to speak. Chapter 62 Chapter 62 After Shu Tian ran out of the private room, she didn''t go back to look for Ji Chuanyi, but ran out of the club alone. Not far from the club was an around-the-clock convenience store. After drinking a ss of strong wine, she felt dizzy and thirsty. She rubbed the change in her pocket and went to buy a bottle of water. She sat on the step next to the convenience store, and the evening wind blew and caused a chill, but she didn''t feel cold. Instead, it ignited an abnormal heat. Shu Tian subconsciously loosened a few buttons on her cor and poured a mouthful of water into it. She wanted to calm the desire in her body, but it didn''t work at all. Instead, she felt the surge of desire more and more intense. She wrapped her arms around her knees. Gradually, the heat spread all over her body, and even her blood became hot, burning her mind from the inside out. She couldn''t help but want to pull her clothes off. In order not to let anyone see her abnormality, Shu Tian held the wall and walked into a narrow alley. The dizziness came very suddenly. Besides alcohol, there was something else that was ruining her mind. It was as if a swarm of ants was shuttling through her limbs. They bit her from time to time, making her itchy. Her body was burning with pain and heat. It was as if there was a damp airstream locked in her body, and she was so ufortable that it messed around in her body and couldn''t find a vent. Shu Tian was about to go crazy from this indescribable feeling. She tried to open her big eyes wide, but she couldn''t find the focus. She anxiously unscrewed the mineral water bottle, and her hands could not stop trembling. She identally spilled it all over her body. The cold liquid stimted her nerves, but it still didn''t work even though the whole bottle of water was sshed. She was so ufortable, as if her body was burning. She had to reach out to tug at her clothes and pulled her cor open in a few seconds, revealing her fair skin. The strength in her body was drained away, and her whole body was weak. She suddenly remembered the ss of wine in the private room and the conversation in the bathroom, and realized a serious problem. Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. She seemed to have been drugged. ... In the club, as soon as Shu Tian left, Li Han also left and returned to Ji Chuanyi''s private room, but he didn''t see the figure he had imagined. The man frowned and sat back on the sofa calmly. Ji Chuanyi nced at him and leaned over. "Shu Tian went to look for you. Do you meet her?" Li Han didn''t say anything. He picked up his ss and took a sip. He didn''t drink much. It was more like he was trying to hide something. Ji Chuanyi had been with him since college and understood his reaction. "You chased her away again?" "No." This time, he finally spoke. Ji Chuanyi raised his eyebrows and said nothing more. As time passed, the man''s gaze fell on the door of the private room, intentionally and unintentionally. From time to time, he looked down at his watch while talking, and the frequency was much faster than usual. However, the person who ran out did not appear. After waiting for a long time, Ji Chuanyi was also worried. Seeing that Li Han was still pretending to be calm, he could not help but sigh. He took his cell phone and called Shu Tian. The phone rang for a long time before it was answered. Before he could ask, he heard the woman''s abnormal voice on the other end of the phone. "Brother, Brother Chuanyi..." Her voice was low and she was still panting. Ji Chuanyi''s expression suddenly changed. "What happened?" Beside him, the man looked over with suffocating pressure. Neither Zhang Yajun nor Liu Peng dared to make a sound. "I, I seem to be drunk..." Ji Chuanyi turned to Li Han. "Did you let Shu Tian drink?" Li Han''s eyes turned cold and his face darkened. He suddenly stood up from the sofa and walked to Ji Chuanyi in two steps, taking the phone away from him. "Where are you?" ... In less than five minutes, Li Han came out of the club and walked to the entrance of the alley. There was only a dark streetmp in the narrow alley that was not clean. In the shadow not far away, he could vaguely see the outline of the woman. He strode over with long legs and took off his coat as he walked, putting it on her. Li Han looked at the woman who was curled up in a corner, blushing and unconscious, and finally lost his mind. It was obvious that she was not drunk, but drugged. But just now in the private room, she didn''t drink. She only drank his... Thinking of her attitude just now, Li Han blinked and reached out to caress her burning cheek. "Why did you drink my wine, huh?" Shu Tian had long been tortured by the drug, feeling exhausted and having no energy to continue covering it. Looking at the familiar face in front of her and listening to his familiar voice, her tense spirit rxed, and her voice was nasal with a grievance. "I heard them say they drugged you..." Her words hit Li Han''s heart, making him have a dull pain. Therefore, she drank this ss of wine not by ident, but for him, afraid that he would have an ident. Even if she was not sure about that, she would not hesitate to drink it for him. A slight bitterness rose in his chest and soon spread to his lips and tongue. For so many years, no one had protected him like this. Outsiders worshipped him and respected him. Only she had protected him regardless of the consequences. "Why didn''t you say it?" If she said it, he wouldn''t drink that ss of wine, let alone kick her out. Tears welled up in the corners of Shu Tian''s eyes. Even though she was muddle-headed, she still remembered his words that made her painful. "You said you didn''t know me." The man shut up and did not say anything. His heart was already in a mess, and regretful. After a while, he leaned closer to her, and his thin lips paused a few inches away from her. His voice was low and gentle. "I''m sorry." He had never been a man who could easily bow his head and apologize, but now he even wanted to punch himself. Shu Tian couldn''t focus her eyes. Without hesitation, Li Han grabbed the woman''s thin neck and pressed against her. When Ji Chuanyi, who was standing at the entrance of the alley, saw this scene, his eyes shed with surprise and he quickly looked away. He knew that Li Han was a neat freak, especially for some extremely private matters like having a kiss. If he didn''t really like her, he wouldn''t have kissed her. Shu Tian felt as if his slightly cold lips were her antidote. Her head was raised to cater to his movements. It was sofortable that she could not help but moanfortably. The kisssted for a long time, almost until Shu Tian was about to melt into a puddle of water in his kiss. The cold wind blew and she couldn''t help but shiver. Only then did Li Han let her go. The warm touch disappeared, and the unspeakable heat swept over her again. Shu Tian reached out and grabbed his neck. Her lips were red and swollen, and she murmured unconsciously, "I''m so hot..." Li Han just carried her in his arms, his eyes and brows filled with indelible tenderness. "Good girl, let''s go home." The man walked straight ahead and stopped beside Ji Chuanyi. A cold light shed in his eyes. "Get someone to hold Huang Jiaxin." Ji Chuanyi was stunned for a moment and quickly understood his intention. He nodded. "Okay, I see." After that, he quickly nced at Shu Tian. "Do you want to ask Ling Junze for some medicine?" Li Han curled his lips and refused without hesitation. "No need." Chapter 63 Chapter 63 Li Han carried the woman in his arms and went out of the alley. The driver pulled over the car beside him. He opened the door, put the woman on the back seat and sat in the back seat himself. The temperature in the car was a little high. Shu Tian unconsciously reached out to pull off the coat that Li Han had put on her shoulder and nced at the man sitting beside her. She kicked off her shoes, knelt on the leather seat and moved towards him. There seemed to be a pool of clear water in her big misty eyes. She could only see his handsome face clearly until she got very close to him. Shu Tian suddenly smiled and revealed a row of neat white teeth, "You are Li Han..." If Shu Tian was usually conservative and reserved which made him couldn''t help but want to bully and conquer her, then now she was so charming and seductive, making him unconsciously want to sink into her beauty. But... The man nced at the designated driver who was now driving the car. He was a middle-aged man in his thirties. Even if the man did not turn around, he must know what happened in the back seat as he was still a man. He had never had sex with women in the car before, so he had no soundproof panel in the car. As for Shu Tian, he wanted her entire belonging to him. Even her sweet voice could never be heard by outsiders. Thinking of this, he pushed the woman beside him away slightly. His eyes were filled with desires and forbearance, "Good girl, sit down." Shu Tian was a little unhappy when she couldn''t touch him. The fire in her body was burning her to death. Only the man in front of her could cool her down. It was like seeing ake in a desert when it was more than 40 degrees and she couldn''t control herself at all. She kept getting closer to him again and again and finally sat down on the man''s strong thighs. Her small hands were restlessly touching his slightly cold shirt, "Don''t push me away..." This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. The woman''s coquettish and aggrieved voice made Li Han in lust. The faint fragrance of her body came to his nose. Even if she did nothing else, it was enough for him to be lustful and filled with sexual desire. But no, at least not in the car. Li Han pinched her restless little hands, "Good girl. Let''s go home first." Shu Tian shook her head and cried in pain. She looked more pitiful with the headlights shining above her, "I want you now. I''m so ufortable now. Li Han, help me..." "I''ll help you. Just wait, OK?" As a man who was already 32 years old, it was the first time for him to be so patient. God knew how hard it was to resist his lover''s courtship. He was not drugged, but he didn''t feel better than her. Shu Tian''s hands were clenched by him and she could not move or touch him. She felt that she was burning. She looked at the man''s undone cor and lowered her head to bite his sexy corbone. This bite took 70 % of her strength and there was blood immediately on his corbone. Li Han groaned. He could clearly feel the pain in his neck, but he did not push her away. Shu Tian only felt that the ufortable feeling in her body seemed to be calmed down a little. But that unbearable feeling evolved into a sexual desire and she urgently wanted more to relieve the pain. The man''s well-developed muscles were twisted, harder than stones, and the back of his shirt was soon drenched in sweat. His eyes were filled with suppressed sexual desire and he nced at the driver with a hint of oppression, "Drive faster!" The driver flushed and didn''t dare to say anything. He immediately stepped on the elerator and drove as fast as he could, hoping that the car could fly at this moment. After a long journey, they finally arrived home. Without saying a word or even taking back the car key, Li Han opened the door and went out of the car. He picked up the woman in the back seat and strode into the vi. The designated driver stood in the luxurious courtyard, wiping his sweat. Thinking of what had just happened, he took a long breath of relief. He finally drove these two people back home. Li Han walked into the house and carried Shu Tian directly into the main bedroom on the second floor. Before he could take off her clothes, he got a bathtub of warm water and put Shu Tian in. Suddenly, Shu Tian felt ufortable because of the hard bathtub and her clothes which were all wet, sticking together. Shu Tian pped her hands and feet at will. Just as she was about to stand up from the bathtub, she was pressed back by the big hands on her shoulder. "Take a bath. Then you will befortable." The man''s deep and hoarse voice sounded in her ear. Shu Tian reached out to pull him, but he quickly dodged. She was in such a hurry that she identally choked on her saliva and coughed violently. Seeing that she was coughing so hard that her face turned red, Li Han felt that his heart seemed to have been pricked by a needle. His eyes fell on the woman''s beautiful body curve and his eyes became lustful again, "I won''t let you have a bath." After saying that, he carried her out of the water. Using his long and beautiful fingers, he took off her clothes and wrapped her in a bathrobe. Then he took it off again and carried her back to the bedroom. The moment his body touched the bed, there was no time for him to sigh. A hot body had already pressed down on his. Shu Tian groanedforably, then reached out to hook the man''s neck and instinctively leaned to Li Han. Her thin lips identally brushed the man''s chin and she helplessly called out his name, "Li Han, Li Han..." "I''m here." There was bean-sized sweat dripping from the man''s forehead and he was more gentle than ever. "Here, I''m all yours." ... That night, Shu Tian was so tired that she couldn''t even open her eyes and fell asleep instantly. Thest time when they had sex, it was almost dawn and the drug in her body was almost not working. She could vaguely feel his care and patience which she had never felt before when having sex with him. This man was strong and domineering, not only in his work, but also in sexual life. Shu Tian was nearly tortured to death by him every time, but this time she could feel his love and patience. But before she could think much, she hadpletely fallen asleep. When she opened her eyes again, it was already noon. After having sex so many times, she was extremely tired. And even after resting for such a long time, she still did not feel much better. Shu Tian raised her hand to press her shoulder, but identally touched the greasy skin. She was stunned for a moment and slowly turned around. She then saw Li Han sleeping beside her. Just then, the man opened his eyes. When their eyes met, sparks burst out in the air. Shu Tian looked away awkwardly, shrunk her neck, and buried half of her face in the quilt, "You haven''t gone to work yet..." It was the first time they had had sex after almost two weeks and she was actually a little shy. The man was obviously tired and his dark eyes fixed on her. It took him a long time to speak, "Yesterday I was too tired. I don''t have enough energy to go to work." He didn''t have enough energy to go to work! Why did that... sound so lustful? Well, Shu Tian admitted that she was getting more and more lustful. She coughed softly, not knowing what to say. So she continued talking, "You are really tired now, aren''t you?" This time, Li Han smiled. He curved up his thin lips in a devilish arc and he said jokingly, "Don''t consider your man as a god who still has the energy to go to work the next day after countless times of sex during the night." Chapter 64 Chapter 64 Shu Tian''s face turned red with this one sentence, and her voice disappeared. The girl was thin- skinned after all. Besides, she was eight years younger than him, so she didn''t know how to reply when she heard this. Shu Tian lifted the quilt and wrapped herself in it, but... This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. The next second, she popped her head up again and realized that they were covered in the same quilt. As soon as she entered the quilt she saw his strong abs... Shu Tian swallowed. She couldn''t move and also couldn''t watch freely at her will. She was very ufortable and even didn''t know where to turn her eyes. Li Han only thought she was cute and simply pulled her into his arms, his voice soundingzy in the morning. "Shy after sex? You were very enthusiasticst night." Shu Tian''s heart was pounding like thunder and her face flushed to cooked prawns. "I, I seemed to have been drugged yesterday, so..." She stammered and managed to speak out a sentence, but this exnation didn''t seem to be that important. She only reminded Li Han of what happenedst night. Thinking of Huang Jiaxin, the man''s face darkened a few degrees. "Don''t worry, I won''t let go of the person who drugged you." Shu Tian was shocked. She looked up at the man''s sexy chin and felt the powerful aura he gave off in an instant. "How will you deal with her?" How? The basic methods were to let Huang Family down and quit Huang Jiaxin''s job and let her have a taste of being drugged. But he didn''t want to tell Shu Tian about this, afraid that she would be burdened. Li Han quietly changed the subject. "Are you still dizzy?" Shu Tian didn''t notice his behavior and shook her head, "It''s okay." Her head was not dizzy, but her body seemed to be falling apart. Thinking about it, even a strong person like Li Han thought it was too much, let alone herself. It was lucky that she was not torn down. Li Han looked at her pale face and sat up with both hands on the bed, revealing his strong upper body. "I''ll go make something to eat and youe down after washing up." Seeing that he was about to leave, Shu Tian grabbed the man''s hard arm and hesitate, "Well..." Li Han stopped and raised his eyebrows slightly. "Hmm?" A trace of worry shed across the little woman''s face and she hesitated for a long time before she asked, "Were you still angry about what happened before?" She suddenly asked it and almost confused Li Han. After what happenedst night, he had already forgotten about what happened before. Now that she mentioned it, he remembered that Liu Lifang''s requirement of the video before. He lowered his eyes and met the woman''s slightly uneasy eyes. He wanted to confess, but now he had a teasing thought. His long legs were slightly bent, and he knelt on the bed with one leg. He leaned towards her with a strong male hormone and asked without answering, "What do you think?" Shu Tian didn''t know what he thought aboutst night. She remembered what Ji Chuanyi had said before, and her mind was in a mess. "It''s true that I didn''t think it through properly to let Liu Lifang take the surveince camera away. It was I who thought it simply. I was just thinking about that child. I didn''t expect Tang Zechen to lie to me with this. I also know that you handed thewsuit to Lawyer Wu for me. I did misunderstand you before. It was me who was petty, but you..." She paused and said angrily, "It''s easy for me to misunderstand your attitude towards me." In those days, not to mention talking, but he even didn''t look straight at her and treated her like a stranger, how could she think about the positive side? Li Han listened to her speak slowly, word by word. He didn''t care. Everything she did for himst night had proved her thoughts. He just felt the voice was really pleasant. "Finished?" Li Han waited for her to finish. Shu Tian was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "Yes." "Okay, then it''s my turn." The man''s eyes were locked on the woman''s delicate figure, and her nervous expression reflected in his eyes. It seemed that at this moment, his eyes were looking straight at her alone. Shu Tian''s heart beat faster and faster. As she looked at him, she unconsciously fell into the whirlpool in his eyes. "I was really angry that you let Liu Lifang take away the surveince video. Personally, you are my woman, but you are on the same side as others. You believe that terrible reason, not because you are stupid, but because you have never doubted it at all. What I care about is your attitude. In terms of work position, it''s not a good thing for thewsuit that you have to get the information as supplementary evidence." Li Han''s tone was very serious. Every word seemed to hit Shu Tian in the face, but his eyes did not me her. "Shu Tian, I''m not angry with Liu Lifang, not the Tang Family, nor your ex-husband. I''m angry with your attitude and choice." At that time, she chose the Tang Family. So he was anxious, unhappy, and even a little depressed. If she hadn''t drunk that ss of winest night for him, he might have continued to be serious. Shu Tian couldn''t raise her head because of what he said. She could say that she was doing it for the unborn child before Jiang Mengyao''s fake pregnancy matter, but now she had fallen into the Tang Family trap like a joke. So what if they had lived together for more than a year? The people of the Tang Family were far more shameless and despicable than she had imagined. They were not worthy of sympathy or trust. Li Han was right. It was her gullibility that caused the following problems. Shu Tian''s head seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. She lowered her eyelids and was a little depressed. The man pinched her chin and lifted her up. "Why did you choose to drink that ss of wine when you knew someone put the drug into itst night?" With that said, it was time to deal with the two of them. Shu Tian''s eyes shed with panic and nervousness to the point of stuttering. "I, I was just in a hurry, and there was no other way." "And?" And? Shu Tian was so flustered by his question that a dangerous answer was hanging in her head. She didn''t say anything and Li Han didn''t urge her to say it. After a moment of silence, she suppressed the throbbing in her heart. "No, I might have done the same for someone else." When she said this, she was so depressed that she didn''t even realize it. Li Han narrowed his eyes and looked at her carefully. He said with absolute certainty, "If it were someone else, you wouldn''t have done this." Li Han had known what Shu Tian was thinking in the heart, but Shu Tian was still stubborn on the surface, "How do you know?" She didn''t know that her expression had told him everything. His fingers caressed her side face, "Because you blush when you lie." "..." Shu Tian felt that she was not only blushing, but her face was also almost burning. "Shu Tian." Just as she was about to ignite, Li Han suddenly called her name. Shu Tian looked at him in confusion and replied in a small voice, "Hmm?" "I haven''t finished speaking." He seemed a little helpless and reminded her not to be distracted. "What else?" Didn''t he finish saying everything? "The reason I''m so sure that you won''t help others like this is that I''m sure that you-" Li Han paused and a dazzling light burst out, "Like me." Chapter 65 Chapter 65 Shu Tian was almost choked on her own saliva and coughed until her face turned red, "Ahem, ahem. Did you misunderstand anything? Ahem..." Li Han seemed to have expected that she would deny it, and he was not in a hurry to prove it. He asked her slowly and tried to torture her. "Don''t tell me it was an ident to block me at the entrance of the bar." Blocking him at the entrance of the bar... Well, she couldn''t deny it as it was really too deliberate. However, she couldn''t just admit it either. She worried that Li Han would misunderstand her. Shu Tian calmed down, "I dide to see you. I just wanted to ask you something." "What''s the matter?" He pressed. Shu Tian rambled, "It''s about work." Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Li Han sneered, "I''m not your immediate superior at work. This is an overstepping report." Shu Tian was speechless because of him. She always felt that her emotions and thoughts were As she was thinking about how to deny it, she heard the man''s husky voice, "You don''t have to deny that you like me. If someone else drank this ss of wine for me, I would help, but it''s definitely not in this way." After saying that, as if he was worried that she couldn''t understand, Li Han pointed at the clothes that were scattered on the ground. His intention was so obvious. Shu Tian looked at him in confusion, "What are you trying to say?" "I want to say that you can like me." Could she like him? Was he allowing her to have a crush on him now? Almost as soon as she understood this sentence, Shu Tian became suprised as she was originally panicked. The strong and powerful heartbeat reminded her how much she had reacted to Li Han''s words. Did she like Li Han? She had never dared to think of it. They didn''t have a good start and they had the most realistic and direct rtionship, so she forbade herself from having any illusions about the man in front of her. But when she was in trouble several times, he was always the first one to save her out of mess. Even a person with a hardened heart could not be indifferent, let alone her. She was like a fish stranded on the beach, unable to breathe or move, and she didn''t have the strength to struggle. She needed someone to push her forward. And the person could be Li Han. He was not ordinary to her. On the contrary, he was too special for her. He was so special that Shu Tian had to pay attention to him, walk into him, observe him, understand him, and even walk deeper into his life. All of those seeped into their daily life. She knew it, but she didn''t want to face it. Today, Li Han suggested that she had to face up to her feelings. Did she like Li Han? Shu Tian asked herself again. Besides Tang Zechen, she had never liked anyone else in the past 24 years. If the heartbeat could prove her feelings, she might like him. She couldn''t tell how much she liked him. At least she couldn''t be indifferent to him. She didn''t even know when she started to like this man. On second thought, she found that he had done a lot for her. Thewsuit, the work, the oppression of the Tang family, and everything in her life were all inseparable from him. It took her a long time to ask again. She asked a bold question with a trembling voice, "Do you mean that you like me too?" The man''s eyes were so dark that one could not see clearly his emotions. The only thing that was certain was his seriousness and concentration at this moment. "You can understand my words in this way." Did he admit it? (¡Ñ O ¡Ñ) Shu Tian blinked several times. "Then..." "I don''t have any other women around me, and I don''t have any romantic partners. You''re the only one. So what''s the definition? It''s up to you." Li Han interrupted her as if he didn''t want her to ask so much. And he didn''t know how to answer. Thirty-two years old was the best time for a man. He was sessful in his career and was respected by all, but hecked a sense of humanity. Shu Tian finally understood. He had given her the initiative, but... Why did it suddenly change from a cold war to this? Was it because she blocked that ss of wine for himst night? Shu Tian didn''t understand and couldn''t figure it out. She just felt that it was not bad. After the two of them finished talking, Li Han kissed her. And then, he put on his pajamas and walked out of the bedroom. Shu Tian was half lying on the bed, her head still a little confused. She was too excited to calm down. Original content from N?velDrama.Org. She took her phone from the bedside and found Fu Qingtong''s WeChat. Tian (Britney), "Are you up?" Fu Qingtong, "Nonsense. It''s veryte. If I am still sleeping, I''m really at loose ends." Tian (Britney), "I have something to tell you." Fu Qingtong, "What?" After Fu Qingtong replied to the message, she put her phone on the table. Then she took a cup of warm water and took a sip. When she picked up the phone again and saw the dialog box on the screen, she spat out the water! Did Li Han tell Shu Tian that he liked her? Fu Qingtong wiped the water from the corner of her mouth and tapped on the screen quickly. "What did he say? Are you sure it''s not your illusion?" Tian, "..." Shu Tian thought about it and told her the general contents of their conversation. Within half a minute, Fu Qingtong called. Shu Tian quickly picked it up. Before she could speak, she was startled by the high-pitched screams from the opposite side. "Ah, Shu Tian! Did you lie to me? Did you actually hook Li Han?" For some reason, Shu Tian suddenly felt guilty. She pressed her mouth against the microphone and lowered her voice, "Can you keep your voice down?" "How can I lower my voice? The probability of this thing isparable to Mars hitting the Earth or a sow going up a tree." After saying that, she seemed to realize that it was not appropriate and added, "Of course, I didn''t say it''s not good. I was just too shocked. I really didn''t expect you two to get together!" Li Han was too sessful and sophisticated. She couldn''t believe that Shu Tian can have him beside. Although they were so different, they fell in love! The corner of Shu Tian''s mouth twitched, and her heart trembled. "Do you think that''s what he meant?" "I think so. Although Li Han didn''t say it clearly, he meant that you can do whatever you want!" As she spoke, Fu Qingtong began to get excited again, "I didn''t expect Li Han to be so flirtatious." He left the choice to Shu Tian, which not only made her confused but also attracted. What a master! Shu Tian didn''t say anything, but she couldn''t help but smile. She felt sweet in her heart. "You should change your Wechat name quickly. Add the name of Li Han. You could do anything as you wish!" Fu Qingtong was even more excited than she was. "Friend, don''t forget me when you get rich!" Chapter 66 Chapter 66 Shu Tian was amused by her, "Come on." Fu Qingtong stopped joking and became serious, "But seriously, I didn''t expect the rtionship between you and Li Han would go this far. When you told me about this, I was worried. Now it seems that I needn''t worry about you at all. Someone can enjoy a good life with great care by a man." After that, she pretended to sigh with emotion. Shu Tian was so embarrassed that she panicked, "It hasn''t been settled yet. He expressed this meaning, but didn''t say anything else. Don''t make it so..." Before she could finish speaking, the bedroom door was pushed open from outside again. Shu Tian subconsciously shut up and quickly put the phone beside her ear down and hid it under the quilt. On the other end of the microphone, Fu Qingtong only heard a rustling sound. Just as she was about to hang up, she heard Shu Tian''s obviously guilty voiceing vaguely, "Why did youe in?" Li Han saw her hiding her phone when he entered the room. His beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and he extended his right hand to her, "Who are you talking to, huh? You look so suspicious." In fact, Shu Tian didn''t know why she hid her phone. But when she thought of talking about him with someone else just now, and now that the person involved appeared, she felt nervous to be caught discussing him behind his back. She swallowed, "It''s just a friend of mine." A friend? Li Han knew that she didn''t have many friends around her and was doubtful, "Then what are you hiding?" What he meant was to ask Shu Tian to show it to him. But Shu Tian was so bashful. How could she not be embarrassed? She simply lowered her head and took her phone out of the quilt. She found the hang up button and wanted to hang up directly. She didn''t expect the man would walk to the bed in two steps and snatch at the phone. Shu Tian was surprised and shocked. She turned over with both hands and feet and crawled towards the head of the bed. Unfortunately, she was still so slow. The man behind her grabbed the corner of her clothes and pulled her back, pressing her directly under his body. "You''re bold now. How dare you to run, huh?" "Ah! Get up..." Shu Tian cried out in embarrassment. She found that she did not dare to look at Li Han. She was still shy because of his words about his affection for her. Li Han had just wanted to take the phone, but now he heard her soft voice, especially the cry just now. He had been turned on, and his eyes fell on her light pink lips, and he kissed her without any hesitation. Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. "Mmm!" Shu Tian was kissed suddenly. She clenched her fingers so tightly that the edge of her phone hurt her skin. Li Han kissed her hard, as if he had deliberately made some noise for others to hear. At first, Shu Tian was still trying to push him away. But not long after, she fell into his kisspletely. Just as the two of them were immersed in it, a hurried female voice suddenly came to their ears - "Sorry, sorry to disturb you guys. Shu Tian, if there''s nothing else, I, I''ll hang up first! Dudu, dudu..." Shu Tian was silent. So was Li Han. "Don''t you know it''s scary to hang up and make the sound?" After Fu Qingtong''s shout, Li Han''s desire had disappeared. He let go of Shu Tian and stood up, "Go downstairs and eat." Shu Tian did not dare to look at him at all, so she nodded and whispered, "Okay." When the man turned around and left, she clearly saw the changes in an indescribable part of his body. She was stunned on the bed. When he waspletely out, Shu Tian crawled down from the bed as if she was running away. She walked to the bathroom, turned on the tap, and threw a handful of cold water on her face. She needed to cool down, or she might have a nosebleed right away. However, the moment she looked up when she saw her swollen lips in the mirror, Shu Tian was still unable to calm down. Some would understand he had kissed her and made her lips like this, while the others who had no idea might think her mouth was mped by the door. The point was ... that being so ugly, how could she meet peopleter? Perhaps it was because her rtionship with him was different now, so she was especially concerned about her image. She had to find a way to make herself look better! She anxiously walked around the bathroom and finally got some cold water in the cup. She pouted and soaked her mouth in it. Although what she did was a little ridiculous, she thought it should have some effect. Itsted almost seven or eight minutes. The second before her lips cramped, Shu Tian looked up and observed her mouth. Although it was still very red and swollen, it was still much better than before. Counting the time, she finished washing up and then went downstairs in a good mood. There were two bowls of porridge and two sandwiches on the dining table with a te of fruit in the middle of the table, including grapefruit, blueberry and avocado. Shu Tian ate nothingst evening, so she was already very hungry. She sat down and took a bite of the sandwich quickly. The bread was buttered and toasted in advance, which was crisp and smelt marvelous. The food was full of juice, and there should be tuna and sd in it. It tasted very good and not greasy. She finished half of the sandwich in one breath, took two mouthfuls of porridge, and she had some food in her stomach for the time being. When she looked up, she realized that the man sitting opposite had not started yet... Shu Tian slowly swallowed the porridge and smiled awkwardly, "Hehe, why don''t you eat?" Li Han was still expressionless and looked calm, but there was a smile in his eyes, "If it''s not enough for you, then eat mine." It sounded as if he was talking to his daughter, "Come on, daddy gives you this as a reward. It''s fine that you''re happy." Shu Tian''s hand with the spoon shrank, "It''s okay. The food is enough for me." However, she was upset that she looked rude while eating just now... "Go to thepany with me after finishing this." Fortunately, Li Han quickly changed the subject of their conversation. Shu Tian stopped gobbling the food and restrained herself, drinking the porridge as slowly as possible, "Is it inconvenient for me to go with you?" She was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble for Li Han. After all, the rumors about them were not very good outside. Although there were more attacks on Tang Zechen now, Shu Tian was still worried. Li Han thought she didn''t want to be high-profile at first, so he didn''t force her, but advised, "I''ll drive you. We can stagger the time to go upstairs." Shu Tian thought about it and found it feasible, "Okay." "By the way," He suddenly thought of something and asked, "What happened between you and Ye Junting?" Ye Junting? Shu Tian was confused, "What did you mean?" Li Han thought she didn''t admit it on purpose. So he put down the cutlery and gently rubbed his thumb and index finger, "He covered up something for you in the test before. As for jumping out of the building this time, he came to you regardless of danger. What do you say?" Shu Tian was not stupid either. She understood what he wanted to say as soon as she thought about it. She shook her head firmly, "It''s not like what you think. Lawyer Ye is my guidancewyer. He usually Otherwise, how could he scold her so badly? Even if he was a little concerned about her, she felt that it was because of the rtionship between the two of them. He was her senior and alumni. But Li Han, as a man, understood what every man''s actions represented the most. That man must have a feeling for Shu Tian, but this silly woman did not know yet. Chapter 67 Chapter 67 Shu Tian frowned and refused without thinking. "I don''t want that. Lawyer Ye is very good to me and very helpful. He taught me a lot. You can''t..." Speaking of this, she seemed a little scared. After a pause, she retorted in a low voice, "You can''t stop him from teaching me just because of your guess." Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. "Isn''t it good for me to be your counselorwyer?" What?! Did he want to be her counselorwyer himself? As the founder, president, and the greatestwyer of the Hanyi Law Office, he actually... Shu Tian was a little ttered, but it didn''t take long before she came to her senses. "No, in that case, I can''t let you do that even more. I would be ''eaten sh'' by someone if I let you." Ye Junting was enough to make some people talk behind her back. If it were Li Han, she would be really dead. "If it were me, no one would dare to say anything about you." His words were extremely domineering, and revealed a sense of not taking anyone seriously, but also it would not make people feel that he was arrogant and rude, because this man really had the ability. "I really don''t need that." Shu Tian had been with him for so long that she could at least understand this man''s temperament. She said as he liked, "Although I really want you to teach me, it''s already arranged. It''s not good to change it now, not only for me, but also for you." As expected, when Li Han heard her "understanding" words, his face did not look as bad as before. Even though he knew that a part of the reason why she would say that was to make him happy, it was still very ttering. He knew that Shu Tian was a very principled person. In fact, so was he. But when it came to her, he would just throw away his principles. For Li Han, Shu Tian was one of the uncontroble factors, and as a matter of fact, he didn''t really want to control this. After thinking for a moment, the man finally gave in when he saw her small face full of persistence. "If you go out with him in the future, you have to let me know in advance no matter what the matters were." He was not that magnanimous that he would allow his woman to be alone with a man who had feelings for her. Shu Tian stopped as soon as hepromised and she quickly agreed and promised happily to him. "I will." ... On the other side, Tang Zechen''s life was not that easy. He had already nned to use this to catch Li Han off guard, but he didn''t expect that the man also had something in reserve. Not only did he figure out a way out of everything, but he actually gave the case to thewyer surnamed Wu before he interfered. Tang Zechen sneered with a sullen face. "Li Han, you really got the balls. How dare you set me up!" He even felt that when he was following Shu Tian before, it was known to this man. What he thought to be his shrewd actions might be a joke in his eyes. "Ring, ring, ring" Thendline in the living room suddenly rang. The maid answered and called him, "Mr. Tang, it''s your father..." Tang Guofeng? Tang Zechen frowned fiercely. He had the courage to refuse to answer anyone''s call, but he did not dare to disobey Tang Guofeng. He exhaled heavily. Despite his reluctance, he got up and walked over to pick up the phone. "Hello, dad." "Do you still know that I''m your father?" Tang Guofeng''s furious voice roared out, making people''s eardrums ache. Tang Zechen frowned and his eyes were filled with impatience. "Dad, calm down. I didn''t know this would happen. That Li Han is really too resourceful..." "Shut up!" Tang Guofeng interrupted him as if he didn''t want to hear another word from him. "You still know he''s Li Han? I thought your anger got your head that you lost your mind!" "Dad! It''s Li Han and Shu Tian who are messing with me together. What are you yelling at me for?" Tang Guofeng snorted coldly. "Tang Zechen, you forgot what you did before. Now you have the courage to say that!" Speaking of which, although no one mentioned it, everyone knew the real reason why Shu Tian left. They were the unreasonable ones. Tang Zechen''s face was livid and he didn''t say a word. Tang Guofeng said again, "I''m telling you, stop this. Li Han is not a simple person. He has an unshakable position in thew world. You don''t know how many connections he has. Our Boyu Technology Company is nothing but a pawn in his hands! If you provoke him, you will not know the consequences you will get!" "So I should just let it go. Is that what you are saying now?!" Tang Zechen could not let this go. "That''s exactly what he wants. Do you want your son to be a wuss?" In Tang Zechen''s eyes, he could not see himself having an affair, what he had done with Jiang Mengyao or Liu Lifang''s aggressiveness. He could only see Shu Tian''s ''betrayal''. They were just suing for divorce, and they had not officially divorced yet. It was wrong of her to do that! Even if the other party was an ordinary person, he would not care so much, but it was Li Han. That man was richer than him, more powerful than him, and even more privileged than him. When they were together, it was as if they were showing off their power to him. He could not bear it! Tang Guofeng was furious and said something harsh. "If you insist on doing this, you won''t get the Didn''t expect to hear this, Tang Zechen was shocked. "Dad, you can''t..." "Beep beep beep" He wanted to say something else, but the phone had been hung up, leaving only a pale busy sound. The anger that was suppressed in Tang Zechen''s heart burst out at this moment. He raised his hand and threw thendline phone on the wall. He threw it so hard that it broke into pieces and the buttons were scattered all over the ground. "Fuck!" With a curse, he didn''t seem to be able to calm down. He walked to the smashed phone and kicked it hard several times. The servants in the house were all frightened. In such an environment, the servant felt quite terrifying. It seemed that she needed to take the initiative to quit the job sometime. Tang Zechen stared fiercely at the broken stic pieces on the ground as if he were staring at Shu Tian and Li Han. He must make those two pay the price. He would not let Shu Tian off easily! With that thought in mind, he ran up to the second floor like crazy, returned to the master bedroom, took the private phone, and called the previous private investigator. "Continue to help me follow Shu Tian. Be careful not to be found. You just need to take some intimate photos of her and Li Han." The other party''s voice was hoarse, who was obviously using a voice changer. "Mr. Tang, things are getting out of hand now. You are basically asking me to do something impossible. I can''t take this job you offer..." "I''ll give you another 200,000 yuan. How about that?" The other party did not speak, obviously still hesitant. It would be fine if it was an ordinary person, but the target was Li Han. He was more afraid of getting killed doing this by ident. Seeing that he hesitated, Tang Zechen knew that he had no other choice. He gritted his teeth and said, "Five hundred thousand, do it or not, just say it." The man finally let go. "Deal." Hanging up the phone, Tang Zechen finally pulled on a smile, but the smile was very terrifying. At this moment, all he could think of was Shu Tian. Shu Tian... He would definitely make her regret it! Chapter 68 Chapter 68 Although Shu Tian was a little uncertain, she still went back to thepany with Li Han. The car was parked on the third floor under the ground. Shu Tian unbuckled her seat belt and turned to look at the man beside her. "So, I''ll go up first?" Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. The man sat still and did not speak. He just unbuckled his seat belt and looked at her with his dark eyes wide open. Shu Tian couldn''t stand his ''torture''. She swallowed her saliva and pointed outside the window. "I''m leaving. You''ll... Mmm!" Before she could finish the sentence, a warm and broad palm suddenly touched her back neck, followed by a force pushing her forward. Her lips were kissed by the man, again and again. He had rarely kissed her before, probably because of his experience as a child. But ever since he kissed her outside Manshan Vi, this man seemed to be an unsealed beast and became especially fond of kissing her. He always put his hand on the back of her neck. When the emotions surged, his thumb would slowly rub against her skin, which she found herself unable to bear. After the kiss was over, Shu Tian was already panting. Her hands pressed against the man''s chest in shyness, and she asked worriedly, "Has my mouth swollen again?" After he kissed her into a sausage mouthst time, she was a little concerned about a simr situation. The man smiled and said in as few words as possible, "No." That calmed Shu Tian down. "I''m going up. Bye!" That said, she reached out to pull the door, got out of the car, closed it behind. It seemed that she had practiced that series of actions thousands of times. She then walked towards the elevator at a fast pace, as if there were wild animals chasing after her. That reminded Li Han of the days when he first met her. She avoided him like that as well, especially after knowing his identity. Every time she saw him, there was a trace of fear in her eyes, but she did not know that such a look would make him lose control. When it came to Shu Tian, he never had much self-control. Fifteen minutester, after finishing a cigarette, Li Han got out of the car and walked steadily into the elevator. Exactly 15 mintues, as she insisted. She could only feelfortable with that long interval. Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on the man''s thin lips. He looked up at himself in the elevator mirror and quickly pressed down the corner of his mouth, returning to his usual cold and indifferent appearance. ... After Shu Tian walked into the office, although no one said anything, there was a subtle change in the atmosphere. She found that her ability to resist stress was very impressive now. She used to find it very difficult in the past, but now she was used to it. She sat in her spot and turned on herputer. Just as she was about to deal with the documents in the mailbox, Zhang Rui''er leaned her head over and said, "Tian, meet me in the tea room?" As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows a bit, which looked like they were exchanging information underground. Shu Tian had just sat down and lowered her voice. "Just say it here. It''s not good for me to leave my spot so soon after I just got here." Although almost everyone now knew that they had a good rtionship, she didn''t want Zhang Rui''er to be isted by others because of herself. But obviously, Zhang Rui''er didn''t care. She whispered in Shu Tian''s ear, "Did you know that Liu Wei was suspended?" "Ah?!" Shu Tian was shocked. "All of a sudden?" "Yes, but the notice said it was because of the dereliction of duty. Mama Mia! She was the first person to be suspended because of the dereliction of duty. It''s very serious. I think she will have to resign anyway after the official investigation." "Why?" "It was still the matter of you falling off the building. The one who pushed you was the intiff she received. There seemed to be something fishy about it. We don''t have a clear picture right now. Anyway, thepany suspended her." Zhang Rui''er curled her lips and sighed. "She''s really returning to round 1." "But..." Speaking of this, Zhang Rui''er paused and said with hesitation, "I was actually praised at the conference." "Praised?" "It was also because of that matter. Theymended my care for colleagues and my being brave. You know." Zhang Rui''er shook her head as she spoke. "Lawyer Ye obviously did more than I did, but I was given the most praise. It''s the first time I''ve received so much praise since I entered thepany." "..." Now Shu Tian understood. Liu Wei might have made some mistakes in her work, but she was in management anyway. Even if thepany was to fire her, it would be appropriate to suspend her position after the investigation. Now she was directly suspended, which was probably Li Han''s order, not to mention why Ye Junting was not mentioned. Shu Tian felt helpless and amused. She had just found that he was such a childish person. "Well, you have to be careful too. It''s a sensitive period." Shu Tian told her. Zhang Rui''er nodded and looked at her. "You really have nothing to do with Boss Li?" "What do you think?" Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat, but her face looked calm. She then asked back, "What does Boss Li see in me?" Zhang Rui''er also found it a little unnecessary to ask, "Although you are a very good person, I always feel that Boss Li is not what a normal person can deal with. He is not even a person in my heart, but a god." Shu Tian did not continue the conversation, but secretlyined, "God? You just have never seen him behave like a beast". As the two of them were talking, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open from the outside. Ye Junting walked in and looked around with his eyes on Shu Tian finally. "Shu Tian,e out." The person who was still in a conversation was shocked when she was called out. She immediately followed him out. At the corner of the corridor, Ye Junting looked at her slightly. "Why didn''t you tell me when you came to work? How are you feeling right now?" Shu Tian smiled. "I''m fine. It''s a slight concussion. It''s okay now." Ye Junting frowned when he heard the word ''concussion'' and his brows were knitted. "Look at you, still smiling now. You don''t know what fear is." "I was terrified. I just didn''t have time to think about that." Shu Tian handed him the materials in her arms. "I have sorted some out, and some of them are still in the mailbox. I''ll bring them to you after checking them in the afternoon." Ye Junting took it but didn''t check it. Instead, he said to her, "You''ve just recovered. Don''t push yourself too hard. Take your time." "It''s okay. Since I''m here to work, I''m sure it''s okay. I want to follow thiswsuit down as soon as possible." She had a lot of sympathy for Li Wei and an impulse to get in touch with Fan Ming. "Haste makes waste. Don''t push your limit." As Ye Junting spoke, he suddenly saw a dark scab on her forehead. He subconsciously took a step forward and raised his hand to lift her hair to take a look. Shu Tian frowned slightly and was startled. She suddenly took a step back and looked at him warily with her big eyes wide open. Only then did Ye Junting realize that his actions were a little frivolous. His eyes darkened because of her resistance, so he made an excuse. "There''s something in your hair." Shu Tian raised her hand and felt her hair, feeling embarrassed too. "Oh, thank you." Seeing that she was getting ufortable, Ye Junting hid the disappointment in his eyes and pretended to make a light-hearted joke. "Look at you, you''re so scared. Are you worried that I''ll do something to you in such daylight?" Chapter 69 Chapter 69 Only then did Shu Tian calm down and make a joke, "I thought you were going to hit me." Ye Junting waved his hand with disdain as usual, "Well, go back to work." Shu Tian finally rxed when she returned to her office. Thinking of what Li Han said this morning and what Ye Junting did just now, she thought she must have thought too much. The phone on the desk vibrated twice. Shu Tian picked it up and saw that it was a text message from Li Han. There was only a short sentence "I have asked you to tell me if you are going out. Do you want me to kick your butt?" Going out? Shu Tian blinked wonderingly. She just stood in the corridor and didn''t go out at all...Wait! How did he know?! She looked around but didn''t see that person. Her back was instantly covered in cold sweats. She quickly texted him back "How do you know?" In the office of the president, Zhang Bikun felt speechless because he saw the boss got the surveince of Miss Shu''s office on hisputer. As the boss watched the video, he lowered his head and texted her back. There was also a glimmer of an abnormal and obscene smile in the corner of his mouth. He looked out the window. Why did he feel that his world was so dark? He must have been scared by his boss. Zhang Bikun mustered up his courage and reminded the boss, "Boss Li, you need to attend a meeting after ten minutes." "I know." Zhang Bikun couldn''t help but look at theputer screen. He couldn''t see it clearly because of the reflection light, "Boss Li, Does Miss Shu know that you have got the surveince of her office on your Hearing this, Li Han finally took his eyes off from the mobile and saw Zhang Bikun. He sounded very domineering but his tone was very light, "What do you think?" His gaze... Zhang Bikun smiled, "I don''t think it''s necessary for Miss Shu to know about this. Hah-hah, it''s not that important..." Li Han stopped talking and looked at his assistant with disdain. Zhang Bikun graduated from MIT. But why did he like to put his finger in another pie? However, this "man show" old man forgot that he just totally bought it. He waved his hand, "Okay. You can wait in the conference room." Zhang Bikun breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay!" Anyway, he could only see them show their affection. However, Zhang Bikun didn''t expect that they not only showed affection in the office, but Shu Tian also attended this meeting. He suddenly remembered the previous ident of falling down from the building. At that time, she was asked to sit on too. But he had forgotten that. Before Li Han arrived, Zhang Bikun walked over and greeted Shu Tian. He simply told her what to say It made Zhang Bikun blush with shame, "Miss Shu, it''s a pleasure. If Boss Li hears it, he will me me." Shu Tian was about to ask him the reason, but before she could say anything, she saw a tall and straight man walking into the conference room. The man was dressed in formal clothes and his tie was tied so neatly. It was cold, so he was also wearing a vest over his shirt. He looked noble and awe- inspiring. Li Han nced at Shu Tian. She looked away and did not dare to look at him. The meeting started. Everyone present was at the level of director or above. Shu Tian, a junior clerk, could only listen to others'' speech most of the time. Finally, it was her turn to speak. Regarding the identst time, she just gave a brief description and didn''t borate too much. After all, it was not a good thing, but it made others feel her capable and experienced. After she finished it, Li Han, who was not willing to say too much at ordinary times, continued to say, "In the future, you must inform me immediately about such things. The security manager did a good job this time and you need to maintain it in the future. We have issued a notice to Liu Wei. It is forbidden to talk about it in thepany until the results of the investigation are out. Everyone should know it." Shu Tian looked at the man sitting on the main seat talking with eloquence. He was quite different from the man, who was with her at ordinary times. The leadership in his blood made people unconsciously want to surrender. Every word that came out of his mouth was so powerful. The man standing at the top of the Pyramid was professional, calm, wise, and was even more than an Original content from N?velDrama.Org. elite. As a leader, he had the charm to make others willing to follow him. It was said that men at work were the most handsome. Shu Tian suddenly understood what it meant. He was not only handsome but also very sexy. She thought Li Han wouldn''t notice she was peeping at him. But Li Han suddenly looked her in the face, "Do you have any questions about the handling of the affair?" The question came too suddenly. Shu Tian was immersed in admiring his masculinity when others all suddenly stared at her. She almost choked, "Uh... No, no. I obey all the arrangements of thepany." Obey thepany''s arrangement. Li Han smiled, "Well, let''s wind up the meeting. You stay here." The sound of chairs rubbing against the ground thundered in her ear. And then everyone rushed out of the conference room. Shu Tian saw them leave one by one. Soon, only she and Li Han were left in the conference room. The man walked up to her and turned her chair around to face him. He put his arms on the handle of her chair and wrapped her before his chest, "Are you still distracted?" "What?" He smiled, "Don''t you understand? What were you thinking about when I spoke just now? Don''t you acknowledge you were distracted just now?" Shu Tian thought of her obsession with his masculinity just now. She quickly blushed and lowered her head, "Nothing..." Li Han lifted her chin and teased, "Look, your face is so red. Did you do anything licentious in public?" Shu Tian was embarrassed by what he said, "Don''t quote the idiom if you don''t know its meaning." Li Han knew that she was stubborn and reluctant to admit it, so he sneered and stopped teasing her, "Exin to me. What did you say to Ye Junting?" "We just talk about our work." Only then did Shu Tian remember and looked up at him, "How on earth did you know?" "This is mypany. Is it difficult to know what you do?" What he meant was he had an informer around her! Shu Tian thought for a moment, and it seemed true. The office wall was all ss, and it was in the corridor. Maybe someone saw them there and told him. Anyway, no matter what, Shu Tian would never have guessed that he had got the surveince video. "Don''t keep watch on me. I feel ufortable." "Then be obedient and I won''t keep watch on you then." When they got home, he could monitor her as he liked. Anyway, he could see nothing when she was dressed in. Shu Tian didn''t know his shameless thoughts and didn''t dare to stay in the conference room for too long. She was afraid that others would see them, "I''m leaving now. I still have some work to do." Wanted to leave? Okay. Li Han turned his face side slightly, "Give me a kiss." "?" Shu Tian''s eyes widened, "Are you crazy? This is the conference room. There are surveince cameras here." He didn''t take it seriously, "This is my conference room. I can control the camera." "..." Shu Tian pushed him, "Stop it." The man raised his eyebrows slightly, "Didn''t you say you would obey thepany''s arrangement? I have given the order. Why aren''t you willing to do it?" Chapter 70 Chapter 70 Shu Tian remembered her answer at the meeting just now. It turned out that he was waiting for her. "Li Han, this is in thepany." She called him by his name, which could be said to be very bold. The man who was named was also a little surprised. He was stunned for a second, then sneered and touched her head. "How dare you call your president by his name." How dared... Was this apliment? Shu Tian''s mouth twitched. "I''m leaving. Get away." Li Han saw that her attitude was still very persistent. He loved and hated her reserve. Without a word, he grabbed the back of her head and kissed her. He was tall, and Shu Tian was sitting. He bent down his tall and straight figure. He held her head with one hand and tucked the other into his trouser pocket to kiss her as deeply as possible. Shu Tian''s heart was pounding. It had been a long time since she felt this way. Even when she had just confirmed the rtionship with Tang Zechen, she didn''t have this feeling. This man was born to be a "scourge", and his every move was intoxicating. But every time he was so sudden, he even chose a ce like the meeting room to kiss her... She was really nervous. Thinking of this, Shu Tian felt very unbnced. Suddenly, she had a bad idea. She opened her mouth and bit his lower lip fiercely. However, she couldn''t control her strength. Li Han hissed in pain and then let go of her. The man stood up straight, raised his hand to caress his lower lip, and narrowed his eyes slightly. "Who gives you the courage?" Shu Tian looked at the lower lip where he was bitten red by her and was a little proud. "I''ll see how you hold the meetingter." Every time, she was the one who was treated unfairly, and this time it was finally Li Han''s turn to be punished by her. The man seemed a little angry, but he eased quickly and he pulled his lower lip in an ambiguous This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. manner. "Okay, you''ll have to suffer tonight." Shu Tian''s face turned a little pale. She suddenly didn''t want the evening toe so soon. What Li Han wanted was her reaction. Seeing that she was quiet, he slowly said, "Wait for me after work. There''s a party tonight. Youe with me." "What party?" "They''re all my old friends, such as Ling Junze and the others." They had been good friends for many years, and they woulde out every once in a while to gather and exchange useful information about the recentmunity. When they heard about his rtionship with Shu Tian, they all urged him to call her out. Of course, Li Han didn''t mind. It was Shu Tian... "How many people are there? Who else is there besides Ling Junze? Is Brother Chuanyi there? And Boss Pei, who was in Hongding Club before, will he go too? Do you need to drink tonight? Will you guys drink too much..." One by one, her questions came out like beans. He was asked not to know which question to start with. Li Han reached out and grabbed her little hand on her knee. "Why are you nervous?" "I''m very nervous..." Shu Tian screwed up her face. "If I had known, I would have changed my clothes when I went out today." She was dressed in ck and white. Although the ck V-neck dress inside showed her figure, the long suit jacket outside showed her rigid style. "That''s good." Li Han looked at her slightly. In his eyes, she looked the best without any clothes. Thinking of this, the man darkened his eyes. Shu Tian was unaware and focused on nervousness. She didn''t even know how to get back to her office. She couldn''t concentrate all afternoon and was often distracted. Although she had seen most of these people before, she was very uneasy when everyone got together. She knew nothing about what she was like in their eyes. Liu Wei was suspended and reced by a woman named Wei Xiangming. Although they were all female managers, Wei Xiangming was much more capable than Liu Wei. Her heart was upied by work, and she didn''t care about all the other gossip. Shu Tian liked the new leader, at least she didn''t have to be "attacked" by Liu Wei anymore. At half past five, the staff of the department got off work on time. Zhang Rui''er was happy, but Shu Tian was not. "Why are you showing your long face? It''s not easy for us not to work overtime!" Zhang Rui''er was a little confused when she saw that Shu Tian was not in a good mood. Shu Tian sighed sincerely. "Oh, you go first. I still have some work to do." "You are so conscious now that you choose to work overtime spontaneously." Zhang Rui''er nodded, pretending to be appreciative. "Thanks for trying. I won''t apany you. Bye!" "Bye..." Seeing that Zhang Rui''er and the others in the same group had left, Shu Tiany dejectedly on the desk. She took out her cell phone and sent Li Han a message. Li Han replied quickly, but there were only two simple words on the message, "Come up." Ten minutester, Shu Tian entered the president''s office from the side door of Zhang Bikun''s office. Li Han was sitting at his desk dealing with business matters. He said something from time to time. He was probably in a video conference. She walked on tiptoe and carefully sat on the sofa in the middle of the office. She waited a long time, but he didn''t finish the meeting. Later, she opened a mobile phone game to y. About half an hourter, Li Han finally stood up from his chair. Shu Tian was obsessed with the game and it was until her phone was taken away by him did shee to her sense. "Are you done?" Li Han looked down at the screen of her phone. "Are you not nervous anymore? You''re so addicted to it." She didn''t even notice himing over. Shu Tian touched her nose disapprovingly. "Not bad." She had been nervous all afternoon. To be honest, she was a little too nervous and calmed down instead. The two of them left thepany together and drove to an exquisite French dining hall built on the outskirts of the city. The sky hadpletely darkened, and a fountain outside the door reflected blue lights changing its shape. Melodious music came from the ss revolving restaurant on the second floor of the restaurant. There was a sense of luxury here. The car stopped at the door. The valet came over and took the car key. They walked into the hall and a waiter in a ck and white uniform with a bow tie stepped forward to lead the way. The entire second floor was devoid of wall tiles and reced with 360-degree panoramic ss. At a nce, one could see the rich area at the foot of the mountain and the lights not far away. The hall was covered with high-grade wool carpets. There was only one long table here, no other guests. It turned out that they made a reservation. Shu Tian saw three men sitting at the table and a woman in a shirt and pants in the corner. Although her clothes were simple, her face was outstanding. Seeing Li Han walking over, they all smiled meaningfully. "Here you are." Li Han nodded slightly as a greeting. He held Shu Tian''s waist with his hand and took some strength. "She is Shu Tian. You don''t need me to introduce her, do you?" Pei Yu smiled meanly. "No, no need. We''ve met before. Hello, Miss Shu. My name is Pei Yu. We meet again. We are family from now on." Family... Shu Tian frowned. You really didn''t treat yourself as an outsider. Chapter 71 Chapter 71 But out of politeness, she reached out her hand and shook his hand gently. "Hello." They all greeted each other briefly. It was Ji Chuanyi''s turn. Before he could speak, Shu Tian called out obediently, "Brother Chuanyi." Hearing this, Ling Junze and Pei Yu looked at each other, and through their eyes, they were seemingly saying, "Good for him." Li Han sat down expressionlessly with his arm around her. He nced at Ji Chuanyi who was gloating. "A man whose life has been half spent feels good to be called "brother" by a young girl?" Ji Chuanyi felt grieved. "I''m thirty-two. We are the same age, okay?" If his life could be said to have been spent half, then Li Han was no better. Unexpectedly, Li Han said without changing his face, "My real age is younger than that in my ID card." "It''s no more than a few days!" Ji Chuanyi was shocked. He didn''t expect Boss Li, famous for being serious, to be so shameless! Shu Tian turned slightly to his ear and asked, "When''s your birthday?" He raised his eyebrows slightly. "December 25th." Shu Tian was slightly surprised. "It''s Christmas Day." "Mmm." Li Han didn''t care much. He hadn''t celebrated his birthday for so many years, and he had long regarded it as the most ordinary day. For him, his birthday after his parents divorced became Original content from N?velDrama.Org. meaningless. Shu Tian sat up straight and calcted in her mind that December 25th was less than a month away. Would she send something as a gift to him by then? However, she couldn''t afford the expensive one, and the cheap one couldn''t be counted as a proper gift. Li Han usually looked like he didn''tck anything. Just as she was fretting, the waiter had already served an aperitif. There were three kinds of aperitifs, each in a different ss. When Li Han saw that she wanted to drink, he pointed to a light brown liquid on the side. "You drink this." Shu Tian understood what he meant and was a little embarrassed. After all, he had bumped into her when she was drunk and probably knew how little she could drink... She picked up the ss and took a small sip. It was sour but bitter, but not disgusting to drink. It was more of a mellow and refreshing taste, but she didn''t know how much this small ss of wine cost. French food had its priorities, from appetizers to main dishes to the final desserts. It took a long time to finish a meal. Shu Tian was a little restrained from the beginning, but Pei Yu and the others took care of her. After all, she was too young to be so scheming so she quickly opened herself up. The meal was very enjoyable. All the men present had the habit of smoking cigarettes. When they felt like smoking, they called Li Han to the main entrance of the first floor to smoke one. "Brother Li Han, my sister-inw is too cute!" As soon as he reached downstairs, Pei Yu began to speak freely. He shouted "sister-inw" more quickly than anyone else. "I think getting along with her will definitely make me feel younger." As he spoke, he nudged Ling Junze, "Don''t you think so?" "Your intelligence speaks for your age. You don''t need to be younger." Ling Junze teased him, "But Shu Tian is much more innocent than I thought." At this point, Ling Junze felt the same way. Shu Tian was different from those random women outside. She was very refreshing, both in her character and appearance, which attracted others to get close to her. Li Han listened quietly, not making a sound. When a cigarette was almost finished, he looked at Pei Yu. "You can go in first and keep an eye on her." Pei Yu was the most talkative of the few, and Shu Tian wouldn''t feel bored or awkward with him. Hearing this, Pei Yu rarely cooperated. After smoking, he turned around and walked upstairs. Ling Junze, Ji Chuanyi, and Li Han were left standing there. Ling Junze was not a heavy smoker, so he stopped smoking after one cigarette. He turned to look at the tall man beside him. "Han, what do you think?" He meant something, and everyone understood what he was thinking about. Li Han had already lit his second cigarette, put it on his lips, and took a deep breath. "Just follow the n." Ling Junze nodded and said, "You have to be prepared for the affairs in the United States. Chujing hasn''t been in a stable state recently. I''ll ask Dr. George to pay more attention... By the way, does Shu Tian know about this?" Li Han took a quick puff of smoke and quickly exhaled. His brows furrowed slightly, and his deep eyes looked dodgy. "No." Ling Junze lowered his voice and whispered hesitantly, "Aren''t you going to tell her?" "Not yet." Hearing this, Ling Junze did not say anything more. He just thought about Jiang Chujing''s recent situation and the rtionship between Shu Tian and Li Han and felt a little uneasy. He hoped he was just worrying too much. Ji Chuanyi listened and did not speak. Although he knew these things, he could not interfere. Jiang Chujing was a very special existence for Li Han. After a leisurely cigarette, it took another ten minutes for the three of them to return to the second floor. However, Li Han did not expect that Shu Tian had been drunk in less than a quarter of an hour since he came out. On this side, Pei Yu was still drinking with Shu Tian. "Sister-inw, I salute you with this ss of wine. Now that you can win the favor of Li Han, you are definitely a heroine." Shu Tianughed so hard. "I also think so. You know how difficult it is to get along with Li Han, don''t you? He''s old, has a bad temper, and doesn''t take people seriously. Oh, I admire myself! Cheers!" Li Han had seen what Shu Tian looked like after getting drunk, and all the unruliness in her bones came out under the influence of alcohol, but... What did she just say? He was old, bad-tempered, and arrogant? Was this the image he had in her heart? Ling Junze saw that Li Han''s face darkened so he secretly became worried about Shu Tian. She was the first person who dared toment on Li Han like that. Shu Tian picked up the ss and was about to deliver it to her mouth. Before she could seed, she was snatched by another big hand. She looked up and met Li Han''s dark eyes. "You''re back..." Li Han ignored her and looked at Pei Yu, who was still conscious. "Did you force her to drink?" Although Pei Yu did not drink much, he was also a little drunk. His beautiful eyes shone brightly. "Brother Han, this is the first time I met my sister-inw, so I am inevitably excited. Just allow me to do that!" "..." The woman sitting by the side, who had not spoken all night, suddenly said, "She drank a lot. Almost half a bottle of red wine." Li Han nced at Pei Yu, who had already hid behind Ling Junze and didn''t dare to look at him. He lowered his eyes and looked at Shu Tian''s flushed cheeks. Although his tone was impatient, the gentleness in his eyes was so real. "You know how little you can drink. Why did you have to drink too much?" Shu Tian wouldn''t tell him that she didn''t want to drink, but Pei Yuined to him about Li Han. She agreed with him so much that she drank too much without holding back. "I feel dizzy." At a time like this, it was most effective to pretend to be pitiful. Chapter 72 Chapter 72 Sure enough, when Li Han heard that she was not feeling well, he had to hold back his anger no matter how annoyed he was. He patiently helped her up from the chair, greeted Ling Junze and the others, and then left. When she reached the corner of the second floor, Shu Tian called out to the restaurant, "Sang, call me." Ling Junze looked at Tian Sangsang in surprise, not expecting that the two people could establish a friendship from a meal. Tian Sangsang felt numb from Shu Tian''s stare and answered unnaturally, "Okay, be careful on the way." When Shu Tian waspletely dragged away by Li Han, Ling Junze pulled out the chair next to Tian Sangsang and sat down. He reached out to pick a strawberry from the fruit te on the table and put it in his mouth. He joked, "You two are close." Tian Sangsang stiffened and recognized the banter in his words. Instead of answering, she asked, "Director Ling, are we leaving now?" Ling Junze noticed that her body was getting stiffer and felt that it was not enough. He deliberately put a hand behind her seat and said, "Wait a minute." Tian Sangsang smelled a sharp mint scent mixed with a hint of alcohol on his body. She put her hands on her thigh. Soon her palms began to sweat. Didn''t he say he wanted her to drive? What was going on now? At the entrance of the restaurant, the driver was already there.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. In the car, the heater was running well. Shu Tian felt so hot that she took off her coat and put it on the back of the passenger seat. She only wore a tight white undershirt, which revealed her graceful curves. Li Han was afraid that she would be cold, and that he would go wild, so he picked up her coat and put it on her again. Shu Tian was forced to wear it. Soon, a thinyer of sweat showed on her forehead. "Are you drunk?" Li Han raised his hand and stroked her cheek. The skin under his palm was burning hot. Shu Tian bit her lips and shook her head. "I''m fine." She was not as drunk as she was with Fu Qingtongst time. At least she was still rational and just felt dizzy now. "Always cause me trouble if I''m not on your side." If he went a littleter, she would have finished a bottle of red wine. Shu Tian was unconvinced. "I''m 24 years old. I know what I''m doing." Li Han nced over and looked at her flushed face. "You know what you''re doing?" "..." Shu Tian choked Well, she would indulge herself asionally. However, at the mention of age, Li Han remembered that she had just said that he was old. He remembered that it was not the first time he had heard such words from Shu Tian''s mouth. If the first time she said it was making fun of him, then the second and third time she should more or less be sincere. Thinking of this, Li Han pinched her face and asked, "Do you think I''m old?" How dare Shu Tian admit it now? She looked at his face and still denied it. "No, you''re not old. I was joking." Not old? Why did that also sound so awkward? Seeing that he could not get the truth from Shu Tian, Li Han changed his strategy and took a gentle route. "I''m 32 years old this year, eight years older than you. It''s normal for you to think I''m old." Shu Tian blinked. She was not used to his sudden self-awareness. ording to his character, he should have severely punished her or changed ways to make her admit that he was not old. However, his sudden admission made her feel strange. Did she hurt his self-esteem? Thinking of this, Shu Tian suddenly regretted it. After all, Li Han was a dignified man. It was not good for her to say that in front of his friends. Shu Tina thought for a moment andforted him. "Actually, you''re not very old. They say that a man is a flower in his thirties. You''re at the right age." A... Flower? Li Han twitched his mouth and he let go of her face. "You''d better stop exining." If she continued to exin, he might not help to hit her. Shu Tian looked at the sharp lines on Li Han''s side face. His sexy thin lips were pursed into a line, which showed his bad mood at the moment. He had never been an easy-going person. However, from some time on, Shu Tian had changed her attitude towards him. She could see the warm heart beneath his cold exterior. For example, after spending a night with her selfishly, he still cooked a bowl of porridge for her the next morning. The warmth was so delicate that it was mixed between the inadvertent details. Only when she felt it carefully could she notice it. She smiled, leaned over, and kissed the corner of his lips. She left quickly, leaving only a fleeting, illusory touch. "Don''t be angry." Her voice was soft like a glutinous rice ball, changing into various shapes in Li Han''s heart. Li Han looked back from the window to her face. Under the light, her eyes were clear as if there was a hiding spring, which made people moved. When the first time they met at the clubhouse, he came out of the private room and was stopped by her as a male publicist. Perhaps it was this pair of big clear eyes that made him couldn''t help but stay for a while longer. Li Han reached out and grabbed her neck, then slid to her side face. Her delicate skin on his fingertips made him covetous. The color in his eyes became darker. "Even if I''m old, I can still make you crazy." Li Han''s voice was deep, and now it was even more hoarse and provocative. Shu Tian''s face was flushed. She nced at the driver in front of them and red at Li Han shyly and angrily. "You, can''t you restrain yourself? We''re outside now..." Li Han grabbed her small hand, which was pushing him. "Don''t you like this?" "Who likes it?!" Li Han was calm. "You." Shu Tian wanted to say something else but Li Han had already pressed down. She was taken aback and snorted. Then she felt the driver''s steering wheel veer off. Li Han raised his eyes and frowned. He then pressed something. With a small sound, a soundproof panel was raised between the front and back seats. Shu Tian widened her eyes. "When did you install it?" "Recently." With a lesson learned from the past, he felt that soundproof boards were necessary. Shu Tian was stunned. "Then why didn''t you turn it on just now?" Unexpectedly, Li Han pulled her into his arms without changing his face. His thin lips pressed against her earlobes and his breath shed on her skin repeatedly. "Because you look so beautiful when you blush." Li Han had never been glib, therefore, when he said so, he was telling the truth. Shu Tian was speechless also had no chance to say anything more. She nestled in his warm and generous arms and let him absorb her sweetness. The temperature in the car became hotter and hotter. However, everything that had happened since they left the restaurant had fallen into a camera in a dark corner. A man looked at the man and woman in the camera, who were very close, natural, and ambiguous. He smiled with satisfaction, parked the car on the side road, picked up the phone in the passenger seat, and dialed a number. His tone was gloomy. "Young Master Tang, I''ve got all the things you want..." Chapter 73 Chapter 73 At 2: 30 in the morning, Tang Zechen drove to an industrial park on the outskirts of the city. The industrial park was dark, with only a few separated streetlights on, and an unusual chill was there in the destion. Not far away, a ck Santana 2000 was covered with dust. After checking the license te number which was the same as the text message, Tang Zechen got out of the car and walked over the car to pull the door. It was unlocked. In the door box of the driver''s seat, there was a stack of photos sealed with a transparent stic bag. It was none other than Shu tian and Li Han. Tang Zechen looked through them one by one, then returned to his car with the photos and dialed the number. "I found the things. It''s too few!" As he spoke, Tang Zechen was still panting, feeling guilty, anxious, and nervous. "Young Master Tang, you are in a hurry. They are not ordinary persons. We have a lot of risk in taking photos of them. It took a lot of effort to get these." His voice sounded very old, obviously, he used a voice changer. Tang Zechen gritted his teeth and took out a photo randomly. In the photo, Li Han helped Shu Tian out of the restaurant, but that was all people could see from the photo. There was nothing else unusual. It was really unconvincing to use these to prove that they had a good rtionship. "Well, I''ll give you another month. The money is not a problem. You must take photos that directly prove that Shu Tian and Li Han have a close rtionship, understand?" "Okay, I''ll try my best." After hanging up the phone, Tang Zechen received a call from Jiang Mengyao right away. When he saw the caller''s name, he was very upset and picked it up and spoke in an unfriendly tone. "What are you going to do sote?" The woman on the other end of the phone paused for a moment, seemingly aggrieved. "It''s sote, you''re not back. Mom asked me to ask where you are..." Ever since Shu Tian broke up with the Tang familypletely, Liu Lifang asked Jiang Mengyao to call her "mother-inw" again. For the future daughter-inw, Liu Lifang treated her ten times better than Shu Tian who had married. "You told mom?" Tang Zechen''s face was instantly filled with anger. "Didn''t I tell you? Don''t tell mom that I came out. What''s wrong with you? Don''t you understand my words?" Jiang Mengyao always told Liu Lifang about him without his permission, which made Tang Zechen feel restrained and forced for the first time. This feeling was not good and even made him a little resistant to Jiang Mengyao. When he was with Shu Tian, who would never do this. She would only help him hide it. Even if scolded by Liu Lifang, she would never say anything bad about him. Jiang Mengyao''s voice softened. "Zechen, what have you been up totely? I know the news has affected you a lot. That bitch, Shu Tian..." "Stop." Tang Zechen didn''t want to listen to her and interrupted in an unfriendly tone. "You go to sleep first. I''ll drive back now." Jiang Mengyao carefully said, "Please be careful on the road." Tang Zechen hung up the phone immediately without giving her response. He mmed his phone on the front of the steering wheel and leaned wearily against the seat. After closing his eyes slightly, he picked up the phone again, checked the contact list, and identally saw Shu Tian''s phone number. After a pause, he suddenly remembered that they had just fallen in love. Shu Tian timidly asked him if he could put her phone number on the first ce of the phone number list. At that time, he agreed to do it without saying anything. Sheughed secretly, but he felt that such a request was too stupid. But to this day, he still remembered all of it. He remembered all the things he thought were funny, boring, and even stupid. He could not help but wonder how he felt at that time. Perhaps it was just his illusion. He had always been the one who lied to himself. If Shu Tian was willing to make up with him now, would he agree? Tang Zechen curled his lips in self-deprecation. Although he didn''t want to admit it, he still had to say that he would agree. He would agree without hesitation. If everything could go back to the state before their divorce, he might restrain himself and gave more to Shu Tian what she wanted. But now it was toote, she had Li Han by her side. The man was better, more capable, and almost invincible. She had already gone far, and even if he stood where he was, nothing left. Tang Zechen sat quietly for a while, restarted the car, turned on the high lights, looking at the night outside in front of him. He suddenly merged with the darkness. ... Day by day, when the Li Wei case came to trial, Ye Junting took her to meet Fan Ming privately again. The familiar but strange feeling surrounded Shu Tian again. After leaving thepany, she exined to Li Han and then went straight back to HongYuan Community. She hadn''te home for a long time, Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei cooked a lot of dishes that she liked, mostly with sweet and sour vors. "Sweet and sour spare ribs. Your father made them. Try them." "These are candied sweet potatoes. Dip some water before you eat it. This was your favorite when you were a little girl. At that time, you could eat a te of it yourself!" "The shrimps were bought this afternoon. They might be a little stale, but it should be okay. The eggnt juice stir-fried with tomato ketchup..." At the table, Ye Lihua kept picking up food for her, but he sat down for a long time without eating anything. Shu Tian felt warm and a little sour. She always felt sorry that her parents still had to worry about her when she was so old. She owed them too much. Original content from N?velDrama.Org. "Mom, I''ll take it myself. Please eat more." Only then did Ye Lihua put some food in her bowl. "OK. You eat more. It''s not easy for you toe back. Your father and I both found that you became thinner." After all, she was going to divorce Tang Zechen now. After she said that angry words, she still felt sorry for her daughter. Especially, Tang Zechen did something wrong on this matter, the old couple panicked at the thought of Shu Tian''s grievances. Shu Changlei didn''t know how to express it, but silently got Shu Tian a bowl of soup. "Drink it while it''s hot." Shu Tian noticed that Shu Changlei''s hair had been growing grey fast recently, she felt ufortable. After dinner, she sat on the sofa and took out a bank card from her bag, and put it on the table. "What is this?" Ye Lihua did not understand what she meant. Shu Tian said slowly, "Dad, mom, this is my sry for the past few months. It''s all saved in this card. I usually eat in the canteen, and I don''t spend much money, no more than 20,000 yuan. You buy something for the family." "How can?" Before Ye Lihua could say anything, Shu Changlei had already objected. "You don''t have any money on you. Your mother and I have some savings. We don''t need your money. It''s filial piety if you don''t let your mother and I worry about you!" "Dad..." "Well, stop it. Your mother and I can''t possibly ept your money. If we really want to be filial to us, you should divorce as soon as possible and live your own life well." Shu Changlei put the card into Shu Tian''s bag. They didn''t break the stalemate, and Shu Tian did not force them, she could only obey Shu Changlei. "By the way, dad, there''s something I want to ask you." To put it bluntly, there was one more thing Shu Tian had been worried about. Shu Changlei was stunned. "What''s the matter?" Shu Tian pursed her lips slightly and lowered her voice, "About the case you investigated back then." Shu Changlei''s expression darkened at the mention of thewsuit. "It''s been so many years. Why are you asking?" Shu Changlei''s attitude made Shu Tian feel even more abnormal. She asked tentatively, "Dad, do you know Fan Ming?" As she spoke, the teacup in Shu Changlei''s hand suddenly slipped and fell to the ground, shattering into pieces with a shuffling sound. Chapter 74 Chapter 74 As an old saying went, the father knew his daughter best, looking at Shu Tian''s expression at this time, Shu Changlei had already known that she might have seen Fan Ming. When their eyes met, both of them were tacit. After a long time, Shu Changlei finallypromised. "Come with me to the room." ... Without Ye Lihua present, it was much easier for the father and daughter to speak without any scruples. After all, this incident was not honorable back then, which was a scar on the heart of the whole family. It took Ye Lihua a long time to ept it. They didn''t want Ye Lihua to think about it again. "Dad, you know Fan Ming, don''t you?" Just like Shu Changlei knew her, she knew Shu Changlei very well. In her memory, her father had never been a person whose emotion fluctuated wildly, but just now, he couldn''t even hold the ss steadily, which was obviously abnormal. Shu Changlei didn''t deny it. "Yes." Shu Tian asked further, "Do you know that he was hired by Baoyou Group to be the chief legal adviser after he lost yourwsuit that year?" When she asked this question, she was staring into Shu Changlei''s eyes. She did not find any surprise or shock in his pair of experienced eyes. So it meant that Shu Changlei had already known it. Shu Changlei was silent for a few seconds and nodded. "I know." "Dad, isn''t that strange? Fan Ming used to be yourwyer and pursued thewsuit against Baoyou Group which had sparked rumors back then. However, Baoyou Group hired him again. If there wasn''t something fishy inside, Baoyou Group was shooting themselves in the foot!" Shu Changlei frowned as if he didn''t want to talk about thewsuit. "These things are over. Thewsuit has alreadye to an end. It''s useless for you to think too much now." "Dad!" Shu Changlei''s evasive attitude surprised Shu Tian and she looked at him in disbelief. Shu Changlei didn''t want to talk to her anymore and waved his hand. "Okay, you can go out if there''s nothing else. I''ll get changed. Don''t interfere with it anymore." "Why?" "Leave the adult problems to the adults. It''s none of your business." After that, Shu Changlei turned around and walked out of the room. Shu Tian sat by the bed and did not move. After a long time, she stood up and stopped at the door. "Even if you don''t want to tell me, I will definitely figure out what happened to thiswsuit at that time!" When the door closed, Shu Changlei closed his eyes and sighed deeply. Everything that happened a few years ago shed before his eyes, and his eyes were moist. ... Before she came out of the house, Ye Lihua brought her a lot of food such as the sauce that Ye Lihua made herself. There was also a lot of daily necessities. Li Han just was out of work and came to pick her up outside the neighborhood. When she got into the car, Shu Tian was not in a good mood. She was very depressed and sat in the passenger seat without saying a word. The atmosphere in the car was a little abnormal. When waiting for the traffic light, Li Han looked at the beef sauce in the back seat and rarely took the initiative to find a topic. "Did your parents make it?" Shu Tian was stunned for a few seconds before she realized his words and nodded. "Yes." Afraid that she didn''t get used to the food outside, her mother tried her best to bring her some home- made food. Thinking of this, Shu Tian''s chest ached again. Li Han noticed it but did not know how tofort her. Afraid that he would bring up another topic that might make her more upset, he simply did not say anything and let her calm down first. The car drove all the way to Imperial Garden. When they drove to the passing, Li Han suddenly caught a glimpse of a shop with a long line in front of it. It was a bakery. He didn''t have a sweet tooth so he didn''t know anything about deserts. Shu Tian, however, liked sweets very much. Looking ahead of the road, the man turned on the left turn signal and parked the car on the side of the road. As he unbuckled his seat belt, he said to her, "I''m going to buy something." Shu Tian didn''t think much. "You go." After getting out of the car, Li Han walked to the end of the line with his wallet in his hand. He was dressed in a formal suit and had an unusual aura, which immediately attracted a lot of attention from customers, especially those of women. There were even a few young girls whispering, "Wow, look at that man at the back. He''s so handsome. Is he a star?" "No, but he''s really handsome." "Yes, I really want to ask for his phone number!" "Forget it. He looks unapproachable..." All these words came to Li Han''s ears, but he ignored them and continued to wait with a straight face, not feeling ufortable because of the attention of others. After standing there for nearly 20 minutes, it was finally his turn. A transparent cab was disyed at the shop window. Inside, there were all kinds of small cakes, all kinds of shapes and tastes. "Hello, sir. May I help you?" Li Han nced around and didn''t know which one was delicious. He simply picked the cake ording to its appearance. "This, this, and this..." After ordering so many ones, he finally nodded. "Wrap them up for me." The shop assistant was surprised. Other customers were silent with surprise. "Sir, are you sure you want them all?" Li Han raised his eyebrows. "Sure." "Okay, please wait a moment." The shop assistant, a woman in her early twenties was so excited that her hands were shaking while packing the cakes up when she saw such a handsome man buying so many cakes. In the end, the receipt was three palms long! Li Han got into the car with three bags of cakes and threw them into Shu Tian''s arms without blinking. "For you." Shu Tian came back to her senses and looked down. They were from a very famous bakery in the city. She saw a lot of people forward the post about it in her Wechat Moments, but... he bought so much for her? "I can''t eat them all..." "It''s okay. You can take one bite of each vor." She was speechless for his extravagance. Shu Tian, however, was very moved by his deed. After all, it had been a while since he got out of the car. It was rare for Li Han to be so patient to do something boring. Shu Tian tightened the bags in her arms. "Thank you." Li Han tightened his grip on the steering wheel and smiled. "Don''t mention it." "Actually, I''m in a bad mood because of my father. He seems to have something to hide from me. I don''t know why." Original content from N?velDrama.Org. "What is it?" Shu Tian hesitated for a few seconds. Instead of answering him directly, she asked, "Li Han, have you heard of awyer named Fan Ming?" The man looked over slightly. "Why did you ask this?" "He was in charge of my father''s case back then, and he lost the case." Shu Tian didn''t mention the deeper reason because there were some things that remained to be checked. "Fan Ming is desperately skilled at dealing withwsuits. If you met him, you should be careful." The car turned and drove into the main road. The man''s steady voice pierced through her ears. Shu Tian nodded. "I know." This Fan Ming was definitely hard to deal with. If there was something fishy about Shu Changlei''s case back then, maybe it was god''s will that she had the chance to get in touch with Fan Ming now. Chapter 75 Chapter 75 A month and a half after the incident, the police investigation released when Liu Wei had changed from suspension to resignation. The result was as expected but still surprising. In fact, not many people thought that Liu Wei would really be fired in the first ce, but they had other thoughts after a long time. On the day of Liu Wei''s resignation, she came to thepany to pick up her personal belongings and carry out the handover with Wei Xiangming. After lunch, Shu Tian and Zhang Rui''er returned to the still- empty office, and they saw Liu Wei walking out with a cardboard box in her arms as soon as they entered the door. The two of them bumped into each other; unfortunately, there was no way for Shu Tian to pretend that she didn''t see Liu Wei. The enemies were bound to meet each other. Liu Wei was also stunned to see Shu Tian, but soon a sarcastic smile appeared on her face, which was unpleasant to look at. She said, "Shu Tian, I didn''t expect you to get me out of here." Shu Tian''s face did not change, and she was no longer as afraid of Liu Wei as she used to be, "Since you''ve resigned, I won''t call you director. Liu Wei, it''s not because of me that you left. It''s because you didn''t handle your own case properly. I''ve been so involved in this matter. I didn''t expect you to feel guilty, but how could you say such words to me? Thepany had given out a notice. Didn''t you see it?" Liu Wei was dumbfounded for a moment out of Shu Tian''s response, and then she smiled strangely, "What you said was really high-sounding. I wouldn''t have been fired even if I hadn''t handled the case properly. You just counted on someone else to mess with me! I''m telling you, sooner orter, you will pay the price for what you did!" Shu Tian didn''t have many emotions in her heart when she met Liu Wei''s fierce eyes. At the beginning of her career, Liu Wei had been having an inexplicable hostility towards her until now. Why didn''t she introspect herself? Shu Tian had no intention of arguing with Liu Wei because she knew that there would be no result. She turned aside and made way for Liu Wei, "I don''t want to talk to you at all. Just go." As Liu Wei brushed past, she hit Shu Tian on the shoulder on purpose. The hit was so hard that Zhang Rui''er had to support Shu Tian from behind to prevent her from falling. Looking at Liu Wei leaving gracefully, Zhang Rui''er waved her fist and eximed, "She''s insane..." This scene was recorded by the monitor and sent to theputer in the president''s office in real-time. There was a flicker of anger in Li Han''s eyes when he saw Shu Tian being hit by Liu Wei, so he picked up the phone on the table and called Zhang Bikun, "Find two security guards to stop Liu Wei." "Stop her?" Zhang Bikun was a little confused. Before he could ask what to stop Liu Wei for, he heard Li Han''s unpleasant voice, "Do you need me to teach you?" The phone was hung up all at once. Zhang Bikun digested Li Han''s words and gave the order after he realized the meaning. Liu Wei had just gotten out of the elevator and was walking out with the cardboard box in her arms, but when she walked out of thepany door, she was tripped by something unexpectedly. All things in her arms were scattered on the ground, and she was almost upskirt by the time she fell to the ground. She turned around and red at the security guard at the door angrily, "Are you blind?" The security guard looked serious, but his apology was perfunctory, "Sorry." Liu Wei had no choice but to get up awkwardly from the ground. There was a big hole in her stockings, and her knees were inmed. Blood was oozing out of her palms after she used them to support herself, but she could only bear the pain and packed her things up. She swept away the dust as she picked things up. After repeating the action several times, the scene of herself hitting Shu Tian suddenly shed through her mind, and her movements froze. Could it be because... She widened her eyes in astonishment, no longer feeling angry or jealous. Instead, she felt a sense of fear and disbelief. Who did she provoke... Liu Wei did not dare to stay any longer and left the building without looking back. ... Ye Junting and Shu Tian had been preparing all the documents needed for Li Wei''swsuit. Surprisingly, the day before the trial, the Baoyou Group wanted a settlement and offered to agree to all Li Wei''s conditions. Ye Junting had made countless unexpected assumptions before, but he never expected this to happen. Shu Tian was also surprised, but they had to consider the intentions of their client. Li Wei thought about it all night and finally agreed to the settlement. Shu Tian felt astonished that awsuit that had been prepared for countless days and nights ended like this. Fan Ming did not show up during the private mediation; instead, it was another leader of Baoyou Group that was in charge of this. Shu Tian had a strange thought in her heart. Perhaps Fan Ming''s agreement to the settlement had something to do with her. After receiving thepensation, Li Wei was satisfied and kept apologizing to Ye Junting and Shu Tian. Ye Junting didn''t say much but just asked Li Wei to make his life count. On their way back, Shu Tian didn''t say anything. When they arrived at the garage of Hanyi Law Office, Ye Junting asked her, "Are you surprised?" Shu Tian nodded. "Indeed. I keep feeling that it was odd for Fan Ming to make such a decision." In fact, Ye Junting had the same feeling. It was strange and bootless for Fan Ming to do so, but... "Since thewsuit is over, have a good rest. We don''t need to worry about the follow-up issues. As long as Li Wei is satisfied, our job is done." Ye Junting smiled, "This is your first case. You have to ept the result no matter it''s good or not." "It''s not bad, is it? At least Li Wei is satisfied." Shu Tian lifted her hand to pinch the back of her neck, "I just feel that Fan Ming is acting weirdly." Ye Junting raised his eyebrows when he saw her movements, "Sore neck?" "Yes." It would be strange that it was not sore after reading so much information and files. Shu Tian didn''t think much about it. Just as she was pinching her neck, a big warm palm was suddenly Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. covering on the back of her hand. She was startled and subconsciously shrank her neck dodge, but Ye Junting grabbed her wrist. Shu Tian stammered in fear, "Ye, Lawyer Ye?" She struggled for a while, but Ye Junting held her hand tightly and did not let go. He said to her, "When thewsuit is officially over, you will have a formal examination. By then, you won''t need me as a tutor." Shu Tian was extremely nervous for not knowing what he meant. Ye Junting said more bluntly, "Shu Tian, I do have special treatment for you when we work together. Even if I am not your tutor in the future, I hope we can meet often." Shu Tian understood the meaning of these words, and it was because she understood that she became even more frightened, "Lawyer Ye, what are you talking about? We are colleagues. We must meet often in the future. In my heart, you will always be a brother that I look up to." She wanted to find an excuse to prevaricate and show her current attitude, but Ye Junting was determined to be explicit, "I don''t mean to be a brother that you look up to. What I want is to stand in an equal position with you." Afraid that Shu Tian would y dumb again, he added, "The position of a man to a woman." Chapter 76 Chapter 76 At this point, there was no room for change. Shu Tian didn''t know what Ye Junting was thinking. He should have understood what she meant because he was well-experienced in his work. Why did he make it clear and make her embarrassed? There was a silence in the car. Shu Tian calmed down and looked down at the back of his hand. "Lawyer Ye, can you let me go first?" Ye Junting was stunned for a moment. Even though he was reluctant, he restrained himself and let go of her gentlemanly. In fact, when he heard Shu Tian said this, he understood what she meant, but he still had fantasy about her loving him. "Lawyer Ye, I don''t know what you think of me, but I''m sure that I regard you as an experienced senior and a role model worthy of learning. I am in awe of you and respect you, but other than that, I don''t have any other thoughts. If there''s any misunderstanding, I''m sorry." Shu Tian''s words were direct but appropriate. She had no intention of sabotaging their rtionship. She just did not want him to have affectionate feelings for her. Ye Junting clenched his hands. He became a little impatient. "Shu Tian, I know you''re getting a divorce. I don''t mind it both now and in the future. I appreciate your attitude towards work and your ability, and I like your personality. I know you have no feelings for me now, but can you... Can you give me a chance to get close to you?" In fact, from the beginning to the present, Shu Tian made him feel there was some distance between them. It did not mean that she put on airs. This sense of distance was automatic, which was a girl''s reserve and pride. She was neither servile nor arrogant. She could keep her emotions in check. She looked weak but actually she was strong. The more they got along with each other, the more Ye Junting was attracted by the contrast between her inside and outside. Since when did he start to like her? He could no longer remember. It was only when he saw her fall that he understood the true feelings for her. Once he confirmed this feeling, it was difficult for him to continue to suppress it. Shu Tian didn''t expect Ye Junting to be so persistent. She was very nervous, but she didn''t dare to show it. "Lawyer Ye, I don''t have any idea of contacting with the opposite sex right now. I hope as your colleague, I can still get along well with you." Ye Junting was a little surprised. He had thought that Shu Tian would not ept him easily. And at worst, she would think about it, but he did not expect her to refuse so firmly. He was confident in himself. After all, Shu Tian had a marriage and was not as senior as him in the The man''s eyes shed. "Do you have a crush on someone?" Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat. Thinking of Li Han, she answered vaguely, "Yes." The expectation in Ye Junting''s eyes was reced by disappointment. He finally looked away and did not speak for a long time. After a while, he unlocked the car''s control lock and said in a tragic voice, "You can go." Shu Tian opened the door and the air poured in. Finally, it was not as stuffy as before in the car. She still could not deal with such a situation. She could only escape fastly. ... Ye Junting''s confession became a knot in Shu Tian''s heart. After dinner, she held herptop in her arms and was in a daze on the sofa in the living room. She didn''t even notice Li Han came downstairs. The man took a ss of water, leaned against the wall, and looked at the little woman who was thinking about something not far away. "What are you thinking?" As he finished speaking, Shu Tian did not react at all and did not even raise her head. Li Han raised his eyebrows slightly, drank the warm water from the cup. And then he walked to her and sat down. The sofa sank and even her body shook. Only then did Shu Tian realize that he hade down. "Are you done?" Without a word, Li Han picked her up and put her on hisp. One of his hands was around her waist and the other stroked the woman''s slender thigh. "What are you thinking, huh?" "Nothing. Something rted to work." She lowered her eyes and did not even look at him. Her tone was a little weak. Li Han told at a nce that she was lying. He didn''t think there was anything fishy about it, but now he became curious because of her performance. "You know I don''t like people lying." She knew. She knew too well, but... Could she really tell him about this? Shu Tian hesitated and gently chewed on her lower lip. However, this reaction made Li Han even more unhappy. She was not a liar. It seemed to be so important, which could even make her lie. Important? The man snorted with disdain. Besides him, who else was so important? Shu Tian was thinking about how to exin to him, but soon her thoughts were interrupted. His slightly coarse palm slid into her pajamas and pressed against her body, making trouble. Soon, her breathing was in disorder. She raised her hand to hold him down. "You, you don''t..." Li Han didn''t give her a chance to resist. He moved theptop aside. And then he was on top of her. Refusing to tell the truth? It was simple. She would be good after he fixed her. He was sure that she would say itter. Usually, he would use his arms to support him when he pressed her, afraid that he would be too heavy. But today, he pressed her firmly. Shu Tian felt his displeasure, but could not stop him from attacking. The clothes on her body were soon peeled off, and the temperature in the living room was a little lower than in the bedroom. Shu Tian could not help but shiver. This man was not patient today. The forey was quick and he entered soon. Shu Tian couldn''t bear it and sobbed. He asked her in a bad way, "What''s going on?" The man''s deep voice was even sexier. Shu Tian actually didn''t like him to do it without a word. He didn''t care about her feelings at all. So she refused to speak. Li Han was not very angry at first, but now he was really unhappy because of her refusal. An affair that could have been enjoyable became a little strange. After it was over, Shu Tian took the clothes and put them on. She was notfortable and hurt a little. He did not restrain himself at all. It was also expected that she became like this. A trace of bitterness rose in her heart. She got up and walked upstairs. Li Han wanted toe over This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. and hug her, but Shu Tian avoided him with a cold face. "Don''t touch me." The man frowned and was about to lose his temper when the corner of his eye suddenly saw her slightly red eyes. His outstretched hands were suspended in mid-air. Shu Tian took a deep breath and looked up at him disappointedly. "Do you think..." Halfway through, she suddenly paused, tilted her face slightly, and shook her head. "Forget it, I''m resting." After that, Shu Tian stopped looking at him and walked to the second floor. The door opened and then closed. Li Han seemed to be nailed to the spot. It took a long time before he raised his hand and scratched his hair irritably. His mind was filled with her words that she had not finished just now. What did she want to say? That was not his intention. For the first time in his life, as a man over 32 years old, he was distressed by a woman. He had never been in love, nor had he ever tried to please a woman. Now he didn''t even know why Shu Tian was angry. What should he do? Chapter 77 Chapter 77 After thinking for a long time, Li Han decided to ask his friend''s opinion. Ling Junze, like him, was single for many years. Ji Chuanyi, needless to say, was about to catch up with the desperate monk. Pei Yu was the only one with a little experience. At nearly 10 pm, Li Han took his phone and sent a text message to him: how to charm a woman? Within three minutes, Pei Yu called directly. Li Han''s fingertips paused and he didn''t want to take it, but... he nced at the closed bedroom door on the second floor and picked it up. "Speak." "Brother Han, there are many ways to charm women. Why are you arguing?" Pei Yu''s casual voice came from the microphone and he could vaguely hear the sound of DJ when Li Han assumed him probably in Hongding. Li Han''s tone remained the same, "I don''t know." "You don''t know?" Pei Yu asked again. "Then what did you do before you quarreled?" Li Han thought for a moment. "Guess." "..." Pei Yu coughed dryly." Hehe, you don''t have to be so straightforward..." "Do you have any idea?" Li Han was a little embarrassed to say this to outsiders openly, and his tone was already impatient. "Yes, yes, yes." Pei Yu answered hurriedly. "If this is the case, then there shouldn''t be a quarrel unless... sister-inw is not happy." When he said this, Pei Yu automatically lowered the volume a few bars. But Li Han still heard it clearly. Was she unhappy? Thinking of her reaction just now, she was indeed unhappy. Pei Yu said implicitly, "Brother Han, are you too direct? Women generally like to be spoiled, including that kind of thing, and hope men will pay attention to their feelings." Direct? Li Han didn''t say anything. It seemed he was a little direct. But he did want to get close to her in the most direct and simple way. Seeing that he was silent, Pei Yu knew that he had guessed right and tried to persuade him. "In fact, women are very easy to charm. You just have to exin to her that you are attracted to her. I think sister-inw might have misunderstood. After all, Brother Han is charming. How could anyone be unhappy? Hehe..." At the end of the proposal, he did not forget to tter, which was the best example of the full service. "Got it. Bye." After hanging up the phone, Li Han took another ss of water and poured it down his throat before walking to the second floor. The bedroom door was pushed open and the lights in the room were turned off. He knew that Shu Tian was not asleep. He turned on the light on the wall and quietly walked to the bedside to stand still. He looked down at the bulge in the middle of the bed, "Shu Tian." Thetter did not react, not even moving. Her eyes, which were hidden under the quilt, blinked uneasily. The man standing by the bed tightened his hands and his heart felt uneasy. "I know you''re not asleep. If you don''t like it, we won''t do in the living room anymore." He exined lightly but did not know that Shu Tian was even angrier after hearing such an exnation. That''s not what she cared about at all! Li Han didn''t realize it at all and said to himself, "I didn''t know you would care so much. Next time, I''ll try to ask for your opinion..." Shu Tian wanted to y dead, but the more he said, the more irrelevant his words became. Finally, she couldn''t help but lift the quilt and sit up. "That''s not what I care about!" Li Han did not expect her to suddenly get up. He was stunned for a moment, but he soon regained his "What I care about is that... every time ites to something I don''t want to say, you will do it this way. Whether I want or not, you never care. It makes me feel like I''m a very casual thing to you." She didn''t like being forced to answer questions like this, which made her feel that she didn''t even have the least respect. Hearing this, Li Han frowned deeply, not expecting her to think so seriously. "I don''t think so." "But that''s what you did." The atmosphere in the bedroom suddenly became tense. One sat and the other stood. The man was overwhelming in his manner, but Shu Tian would not give in this time. She was only too resistant to such ''coercion''. After a while, Li Han finallypromised and said slowly, "Even if it wasn''t for letting you tell the truth, I would do this. I admit I was a little unhappy, but basically I did this because..." In the end, he suddenly stopped speaking, leaving Shu Tian''s heart hanging in the air, neither rising nor falling. After a long silence, Shu Tian was too nervous and a little angry. "What are you trying to say?" The man seemed a little embarrassed, but when he saw that she was going to cover herself up again, he pulled the quilt off her body, knelt on one knee on the bed, leaned closer, and his eyes were deep, twisting her reflection like a whirlpool. "It''s just because I crave for you very much." Her appearance, her voice, her emotions, her body, everything about her was like a poppy, having a fatal attraction to him. But Shu Tian was confused and her big eyes were filled with confusion. "Do you want me or my body?" In the adult world, sex and love were inseparable, but she was immature to care. The man''s fingertips slid across her side face and finally stopped at her chin. "There are some things I This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. only do with you." He didn''t know how to exin, so he told her in the most straightforwardnguage. The simple words floated down on Shu Tian''s heart, but it was a heavy blow. She suddenly understood what he meant by "crave for." He was really straightforward. To this man, he disdained to lie, and he would not waste his energy to be perfunctory. He just acted when he wanted, and his "crave for" might be real desire, but she thought too much. After a failed marriage, she admitted that she was sensitive. One or two words and a few casual actions could make her lose all confidence. After a long time, Shu Tian looked up at him and said in a soft voice, "Li Han, have you never been in love?" It seemed that he didn''t expect her to suddenly ask this question. The man was dazed for a few seconds and asked her in an unhappy tone, "Does it matter?" "Of course." If he had been experienced, he wouldn''t have made the exnation just now. It even made things worse. But his look different from his usual coldness made Shu Tian feel he was a little cute. Cute? Shu Tian smiled helplessly. She felt like an emotional child. She had been so angry that she had wanted to cry just now, but now she waspletely devoid of anger. Li Han sat next to her and held her soft cheeks. "Are you angry now?" "No." Shu Tian pushed his cheek away. "There''s one more thing I want to discuss with you." "Say it." "Did it count that you said you wanted to be my mentor?" The man stopped kissing her and raised his eyebrows in surprise, but soon he understood why Shu Tian changed her mind. In such a short time, Ye Junting must have done something that she couldn''t face. Between men and women, between the boss and subordinate, there was only one thing left. "Did Ye Junting make it clear to you?" Chapter 78 Chapter 78 Shu Tian was a little surprised. "How do you know?" She said those words unconsciously. But she regretted it the moment she said it. Didn''t her words prove that Li Han had guessed everything correctly... "I told you to keep your distance from Ye Junting, now you believe me?" The man''s cold gaze swept over. He red at her as if an adult was scolding a child for doing something wrong. Men know men best. Ye Junting''s behaviors were enough to show that he liked Shu Tian. Shu Tian knew that sooner orter she would not be able to hide it. She raised her hand and touched her nose resentfully. She muttered, "Who would have thought of such a thing to happen?" She had never imagined that she would be together with Ye Junting. Therefore, his confession was very unexpected to her. "Tsk!" Seeing that she was still talking back, Li Han was stunned and raised his hand trying to hit her on the head. Shu Tian was so scared that she shrank her neck and hid away while hurriedly said, "A gentleman will not do anything rude!" "Gentleman?" Hearing these two words, Li Han sneered. "Don''t I look like an old rascal with a big age and a bad temper to you? Why am I a gentleman now?" Seeing that she did not speak anymore, Li Han withdrew his hand andnded on top of her head. "You are really a wise man who knows when to retreat and can take temporary setbacks." Shu Tian smiled awkwardly and muttered discontentedly, "Why don''t you just give me an excuse?" Li Han narrowed his eyes and his voice was already tinged with a sense of impatience. "Say it again!" Shu Tian was exactly like a cat who would only scratch her master to release some little temper but she would never continue if she realized that Li Han was about to get angry. "Oh, do the words you once said about being my instructor still count?" Li Han nced at her. "You want to be my apprentice?" Apprentice? It seemed that they were the same things. "Well, almost." The corner of the old man''s mouth twitched. How could she take it so easy as many people tried so hard to obtain this opportunity? Li Han leaned back a little with his hands propping up himself on the bed. His posture wasnguid with a hint of sexiness and his sharp ck eyes looked at her intentionally or unintentionally. "Not impossible. It depends on your performance." Shu Tian didn''t expect him to be so proud. She moved her butt away from him letting out an Ouch. "Forget it if you don''t want to." Li Han nodded thoughtfully. "Okay, anyway, whether your future work is going well or not depends on now." "Are you threatening me?!" "I''m teaching you the ways of the world." "... Aren''t you trying to use the unspoken rules on me?" As she spoke, she crossed her hands to protect her chest. "You demon finally outstretched your hands to a workce newbie like me!" Li Han was amused by her appearance and he curled his thin lips up slightly. He looked at her leisurely and let out a low and deep voice. "I have already used the unspoken rules on you! Are you satisfied with me?" Shu Tian could only feel a stream of hot airing up from the bottom of her feet, and her cheeks were burning red. "Can you say something serious?" Li Han saw that her face reddening like an apple and smiled even more brilliant. He even pinched the soft meat on her cheek with malice. "I told you that I''ll see how you behave." He never took a step back when it came to taking her advantage. But... A little woman who was almost burned because of her shyness whispered hesitantly, "I still feel a little pain..." Discussing this topic openly was still a test for Shu Tian to be thick-skinned. She admired Li Han''s persistence in this kind of thing, from his energy to his physical strength. Hearing this, Li Han frowned and reached out to pull her pajamas. "Let me see." What did he say? See... See what! Shu Tian jumped out of bed suddenly and hid in the corner of the room, regardless of the pain. "No, no, no, no. It''s not that serious. Don''t bother Boss Li to take a look!" If he took off her pajama and took a look himself... No, it was impossible. She would rather jump off the second floor, really. Even if she was going to be disabled for the rest of her life. Fortunately, Li Han did not insist seeing that she was very resistant. Shu Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief and moved back to bed. The man finally calmed down and became serious. "After thiswsuit is over, the internship will be over. I will let you pass directly. You don''t need me to protect you anymore when you be an official employee as you don''t need an instructor then." Shu Tian suddenly realized, "Ah... I remember. Ye Junting seemed to say the same thing." Li Han looked slightly at her. When he heard the word Ye Juntinging out of her mouth, he was especially upset. "Why didn''t you care so much about what I said?" Shu Tian didn''t know why he acted like this but she understood that this man was unusually concerned about Ye Junting. She smiled and joked, "What are you doing? Are you jealous?" An unnatural look shed through Li Han''s face, "No." After that, he turned his back to prevent Shu Tian from seeing his expression. However, she was still sensitive to the fleeting emotions. It was rare for her to see Li Han suffer a setback. She immediately became yful and went around him. "Are you really jealous?" The man''s voice was cold and stern. "No." "Tsk, you''re just stubborn. If you''re jealous, just admit it." Shu Tian pretended to be sorry and shook her head. "Chauvinism..." Li Han knew that she was deliberately ashamed of him and he actually felt a little embarrassed. He said in an unpleasant tone, "Need me to give you another good lesson? I''ll take a look at the follow-up work and coordinate it. If you''re afraid of meeting him embarrassingly and ufortable, I can make you avoid working with himpletely." Shu Tian thought for a moment. In fact, what she was most afraid of was that there would be some unnecessary trouble in her work in the future. Although she still regarded Ye Junting as a senior in her heart, after all, she would feel ufortable with him as he made the confession. Once she had mixed thoughts in her heart, her work efficiency would naturally decrease. She didn''t want these private affairs to affect her work so it wouldn''t be a bad thing to avoid working with him. After a moment of consideration, Shu Tian readily agreed. "That''s fine." ... However, what Shu Tian didn''t expect was that Li Han''s way to "avoid" waspletely different from what she thought. Not long after the neer assessment was over, she actually heard the news that Ye Junting was leaving. She had a hunch that this might have something to do with her so Shu Tian went to Ye Junting''s office after the meeting. Just as she was about to push the door open, she suddenly heard Wu Mengfan''s voiceing from inside. Shu Tian''s hand, which was knocking on the door, suddenly stopped in midair. It was not right to enter in or to go back. Just as she was about to take a few steps back, she suddenly heard her nameing out of Wu Mengfan''s mouth. "Lawyer Ye, do you really think it''s a coincidence that you left this job? Don''t you think everything that rtes to Shu Tian is very strange, including thest time when Director Liu fell from the building? Now even you have an unexpected bad ending now!"Original content from N?velDrama.Org. Chapter 79 Chapter 79 Wu Mengfan''s sharp and angry voice came through the door. Shu Tian frowned. She hated to be a stealthy person who eavesdropped, but she couldn''t move her feet right now. After all, it was rted to her. Ye Junting didn''t say anything. Wu Mengfan was the only one who kept talking, and the man finally said coldly, "Are you done?" "Lawyer Ye, why don''t you believe me?" After Wu Mengfan shouted and vented her anger for a while, she calmed down all of a sudden, as if her emotion had reached such an extreme that it went to another direction. "Can''t you feel my admiration for you?" Ye Junting spoke again but he already sounded impatient. "I treat you like a colleague. If you have nothing more to say, please leave now." A few secondster, the door of the office was pushed open from the inside. Shu Tian almost had the ridge of her nose hit before she, fortunately, dodged the door. Seeing her, Wu Mengfan seemed a little surprised. Her eyes were still red but she quickly sneered again. "Shu Tian, you still have the nerve toe here. Are you happy that Lawyer Ye will leave here because of you? Standing here eavesdropping, you really have a big heart!" Shu Tian had not much expression. "You should be prepared to be heard by others when you talk about them behind their back." "You..." Before she could finish, Shu Tian walked away. Arguing with someone who had a prejudice against you was the least necessary thing because no matter what you said, she wouldn''t believe it. In the office, Ye Junting was packing his things. When he heard the voice, he didn''t even raise his head. "Didn''t I tell you to go out?" Shu Tian stopped in front of his desk. "Lawyer Ye, it''s me." Hearing her voice, Ye Junting''s body stiffened a bit. He looked up and looked at her with both astonishment and delight surprise in his eyes. "What brings you here?" "When I heard that you were leaving..." Shu Tian looked at therge cardboard box on his desk, which was already filled with his personal belongings. "May I ask why you are leaving out of the blue?" Ye Junting paused and smiled bitterly. "Do you really not know, or do you pretend not to know?" Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat. It was indeed what she had expected. This might have something to do with her. Her face darkened slightly. "You might as well just tell me." Ye Junting looked straight into her eyes. "Boss Li personally ordered me to leave." "What?!" Shu Tian was shocked. Ye Junting examined carefully the expressions on her face. It didn''t seem like she was faking. Faking couldn''t be so realistic. It seemed that she really didn''t know. With that thought in mind, he breathed a sigh of relief. At least Shu Tian didn''t scheme to make him leave. That was enough. However, there was one thing that he was still very confused about. After a long time of hesitation, he still couldn''t help but ask, "Shu Tian, do you know Boss Li or not?" Shu Tian didn''t want to lie, let alone to someone who had helped her a lot at work. However, she had no choice but to hide the truth. "I don''t. What''s wrong?" Ye Junting shook his head. "It''s okay. Maybe I was thinking too much." Based on a man''s intuition and his knowledge of the same sex, he always felt that Li Han treated Shu Tian differently. If they knew each other, then they must have a close rtionship. If they didn''t know each other, Li Han might have a one-sided affection for Shu Tian. No matter what, Shu Tian was already someone special in Li Han''s eyes. After exchanging a few words, Shu Tian already knew what was going on. She was basically sure that Ye Junting''s resignation was not his own choice, so it must have something to do with Li Han. Recalling that the two of them had discussed this before, she felt like she had been poured with Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. gasoline and quickly burned up. Without any hesitation, she went straight to the boss''s office. In order to hide her real intention from others, she went in the boss''s office from Zhang Bikun''s office without any notice in advance. Zhang Bikun wanted to stop her, but he didn''t dare. He could only try to talk to her, "Miss Shu, Boss Li is having a meetingter. Could you..." Before he could finish, Shu Tian had already opened the door and strode toward Li Han''s desk. She mmed her hand on it and her eyes were boiling with anger. "Li Han, what do you mean by firing Ye Junting?" Li Han was reviewing the document and his signature became crooked because of her p. The whole page had to be reprinted and reviewed again. He looked up unhappily. "What do you mean?" "Huh," Shu Tian burst intoughter out of anger and looked around, speechless. Finally, her eyes fell on his cold and handsome face again. "Why did you fire Ye Junting? Just because I said he confessed to me?" The more she spoke, the more absurd it souded to her. She couldn''t help but raise her voice and ask him, "What right do you have to do this!" "I''m his boss. Am I entitled now?" The man''s voice was frighteningly calm as if firing Ye Junting meant nothing to him. Shu Tian could not understand his indifference and even felt that it was terrifying. "You''re too arbitrary. Nothing happened between Ye Junting and me. It just made no sense to fire him because you were unhappy!" "This is mypany." In other words, what he wanted to do didn''t need a reason, because he was the reason for everything here. Shu Tian was speechless to the extreme and could notmunicate with him at all. "Okay, it''s up to you. If you want to fire Ye Junting, I''ll quit too!" Her threatening, nevertheless, was still a deterrent to Li Han. After all, he knew better than anyone else how much this job meant to Shu Tian. She would never joke about her job, which was one of the reasons why he admired her. But now, she was to resign for Ye Junting? The man''s eyes turned cold, and the pen was put on the table with a violent "bang". It was not loud, but it sounded very intimidating. "You''re resigning for Ye Junting?" "He was fired because of me. What I did was just payback. I can''t stop you. I can only make things difficult for myself. Otherwise, I will feel guilty about it!" She was actually mad at herself because she had caused someone to lose a career he loved. Li Han sneered. "Do you think I''ll agree to your terms when you take such an attitude?" Attitude, attitude, it was all about attitude. Shu Tian was so tired of that word that her rebellious mentality was aroused. "I don''t know what attitude I should take. All I know is what is right and what is wrong." After that, she turned around and left, as if she didn''t want to stay even one second longer. She left through the side door. As soon as her hand touched the doorknob, her arm was pulled back by a force, and her body was forced to be pulled over to face the man behind her. Shu Tian''s reaction was very intense. She patted the man''s chest and shoulders with both hands hard, one strike after another, with all her strength. Li Han was upset by her being so unreasonable and lost all his patience. He was about to lose his temper when he suddenly caught a glimpse of her red eyes. The burning me in his chest was extinguished. He panicked and quickly grabbed her two small hands and leaned over to her height. "Why are you crying?" Chapter 80 Chapter 80 Shu Tian was not aggrieved before he spoke, but became even more aggrieved after his speaking. She couldn''t control her tears filled in her almond eyes, "I am not crying! Let me go!" How could Li Han let her go now? He could do so before he saw her tears. Seeing her tears, he became really patient and affectionate, "You said awful things, but you cried first. I didn''t scold you at all, did I?" His tone was helpless and indulgent which made Shu Tian feel even more ufortable, "You didn''t say anything but you did everything! Why did you fire Ye Junting? He had taught me so many things. In the blink of an eye, he was fired for no reason just because of me. What do you expect me to think..." In fact, Li Han had already thought about these things. Butpared to what he really cared about, these were all small problems. He admitted that the possessiveness he had on Shu Tian was excessively strong which was a little morbid, but he really couldn''t stand a man who liked her staying around her. Shu Tian indeed knew what he was thinking, "Do you have to drive away all men by my side in the future? Don''t you have any trust in me?" She needed a normal life, a normal social life. She didn''t want to be tied up and imprisoned. However, she didn''t know that it was not because Li Han didn''t trust her, but because he didn''t trust himself. However, this proud man would not say this out loud easily. "Stop crying." Seeing her tears, he felt ufortable. Without a satisfactory answer, Shu Tian sniffled and struggled twice, "Let me go." "Let go of you so that you can run out crying?" The man sighed and finallypromised because of her tears, "I promise you that I won''t fire Ye Junting." Shu Tian did not expect him topromise. She was a little incredulous. Her eyes and nose were all red, and her mouth was slightly open. She looked at him in a daze, a little incredulous, "Really?" "If it''s not true, aren''t you going to cry in front of me again?" Li Han had always disdained women''s tears. For him, tears were just a sign of weakness. Not until Shu Tian appeared did he finally understand why people considered women''s tears as a deadly weapon. Only her glittering tears could soften his heart. Shu Tian finally calmed down and was no longer as aggressive as before, "In the future, can you inform me in advance when you do this kind of things? I don''t expect you to listen to me, but at least don''t make me regret telling you those things." If she knew that he would fire Ye Junting, she would never tell him about Ye Junting''s confession. Li Han frowned slightly, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her, "You just have to remember you are mine." Shu Tian wiped her tears and said in a rage, "I don''t know it myself that I''m your woman." Li Han was not angry either. His deep eyes narrowed and he spoke with implied meaning, "Oh, I haven''t withdrawn the resignation letter yet..." Shu Tian stopped his hand, "Oh, please. I know it clearly that I''m yours!" Li Han was satisfied now. In fact, in most of the time that he spent with Shu Tian, he yed the role of a trainer and Shu Tian yed the role of a trainee. In terms of subordination, Shu Tian belonged to him and obeyed him. So he could say that he was training his woman. But many times, it was not entirely the case. Compared to before, he now spent more time indulging her and meeting her requirements just like what he was doing now. This kind of indulgence was terrifying and was more like a kind of voluntarypromise which Li Han had never had before. So he felt this emotion special and at the same time felt happy for his change. When Shu Tian left the President''s Office, she gave Zhang Bikun the document on which Li Han''s signature was not so good-looking as before. After seeing the document, Zhang Bikun looked at Shu Tian when she left and couldn''t help but sigh, "They really had a good time in the office. Even the signature on the document is crooked. Boss Li is really good at flirting..." ... Ye Junting had left and returned to his position in a rtively short time. Although everyone had heard about it, they had no chance to know more. But after the incident, Ye Junting and Shu Tianpletely broke off contact. The result met Ye Junting''s expectation. Ye Junting was smart and probably understood that Shu Tian had done something to bring him back to work. Shu Tian was very grateful. After all, Ye Junting did not hate her because of this and he did not say anything about her in thepany. In a blink of an eye, the weather turned cold and it snowed for the first time in winter. This year, the snow came especially early which seemed to be half a month earlier than before. Shu Tian did not forget that Li Han''s birthday wasing soon when she was preparing for the cold winter. When it came to birthdays, the most difficult thing was choosing gifts. It was not so difficult for her to choose gifts for others, but Li Han really owned everything. So it was especially difficult for her to choose gifts for him. Shu Tian didn''t have any idea, so she called Fu Qingtong out to go shopping together. The girls didn''t feel bored when they went shopping. Shu Tian went through all five floors of the huge shopping mall and finally bought a pair of cuff links. The man looked celibate when he was dressed in a neat suit and a properly tied tie. He also had high requirements for cuff links. There was a closet in his cloakroom at home that was full of cuff links. "Madam, you have a good eye. These cuff links are our limited edition for this winter and are also shown on magazines. You need to book in advance if you want to buy." The sales at the counter introduced enthusiastically and took the tie knot beside her, "This is the tie clip that came out this year in order to match those cuff links. It has been improved and is wrinkle resistant. Even if it is worn for a few hours, it will not wrinkle. The botany wool has excellent expansibility and will adjust to the body temperature." Shu Tian took a look at it. Both the packaging and the workmanship were exquisite. The dark blue tie was decorated with dark stripes. There were not too many fancy decorations. It was a verymercial style. A small diamond was embedded on the head of the tie clip, making the finishing point. The thought of this tie being tied around his neck, close to his body all the time and even stained with his warmth made her unconsciously curl up her lips. Shu Tian looked at the price and found that it was not cheap to buy both the cuff links and the tie clip. But it was a birthday present for Li Han after all, so she bought it without further thought. Li Han never wore bargains. "I''m in a hurry to buy it as a gift. How long do I have to wait for the reservation?" "It will be faster if you book it now. You will receive your goods in about two days." After counting the date, she found it just in time. She took out the cuff links from the counter and showed them to Fu Qingtong, "What do you think?" Fu Qingtong nodded, "It''s pretty good and it suits your man." When the sales heard this, she looked at Shu Tian as if she understood their rtionship, "The style of Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. these cuff links is mature but not rigid. It''s a perfect gift for your lover." Lover... Shu Tian didn''t answer. She flushed, stabbed Fu Qingtong beside her with her elbow and said, "Don''t talk nonsense!" "Oh, now you are shy, aren''t you?" Fu Qingtongughed and teased her. "Look at your blushing face. I haven''t said anything yet!" "Come on, you have talked too much." Shu Tian handed the cuff links back, "Transfer the goods for me please. I''ll pay now." "Okay, follow me this way." Chapter 81 Chapter 81 After choosing their birthday gifts, Shu Tian and Fu Qingtong ate at a restaurant next to the mall. It was just in time for dinner. It was quite noisy in the hall, so they chose a corner seat, which was rtively quiet. It was just a coincidence that they met Tang Zechen and Jiang Mengyao, who wereing to dinner together, sitting in the next second seat to them, and they could see each other if they turned their heads. Shu Tian got up again, picked up her bag, and asked the waiter beside her, "Are there any other seats?" "Yes, but there is none in the corner, so it might be a little noisy." "It''s okay." Chaos was better than seeing these two together. Just as the waiter was looking for an empty seat for them, Jiang Mengyao happened to see Shu Tian too. She was stunned for a second. When she came to her senses, she leaned over to Tang Zechen''s body deliberately, looking like a timid and lovable little woman. Seeing this, Fu Qingtong could not help but swear, "Look at her bitchy look. Has she never seen a man?" Shu Tian didn''t want to make a scene, so she gently tugged at her sleeve. "Forget it. Let them be." Fu Qingtong was trying her best to suppress her anger, but Jiang Mengyao deliberately made a mouth shape at her, silently, contemptuously and provocatively saying "get out". "She''s telling us to get out?" Fu Qingtong smiled angrily. "Does she think it''s glorious to be a mistress? I''ll teach her how to behave for her parents today!" It was toote for Shu Tian to stop her. Fu Qingtong walked to Jiang Mengyao''s desk in two steps and pointed at her face. "What did you mean just now?" When Tang Zechen heard her sound, he looked away from the menu. "Fu Qingtong?" Wasn''t she Shu Tian''s best friend? So... Tang Zechen looked behind her and saw Shu Tian walking this way as he expected. He hadn''t seen her in person for a while. At this time, she was wearing a ck cloak-style woolen coat, matching shorts, and a pair of knee-length boots, revealing a small part of her white thighs. She was slender. Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. When they got married, he didn''t find her beauty. Now that he saw her, he realized how beautiful she was even if she was just standing there. Unfortunately, now this beauty all belonged to another man. Jiang Mengyao noticed that Tang Zechen''s eyes were almost glued to Shu Tian''s body. She secretly gritted her teeth and took his arm. Her voice was pitiful, and she said. "Zechen, look at her. She scares me." "Ha!" Fu Qingtong sneered. "When you be his mistress, you weren''t scared. Now you''re scared? Why do you even bother to pretend to be innocent and pitiful? You shameless woman." Fu Qingtong''s words were sharp and hurtful, and the pitiful expression on Jiang Mengyao''s face was about to change. "Zechen, do something about her..." Tang Zechen had no choice but to try to stop Fu Qingtong, "This is a public ce. Don''t be so rude." "Tsk, tsk, tsk. I admire you for even being able to say what you just said. It''s such a pity that you weren''t born a eunuch. Are you still a man or what?" "You!" "What?! It''s only been a few days since that happened, and now you brought your mistress out to eat and show her to the world. It''s shameless enough, but you just can''t keep a low profile, can you? We didn''t bother to hit you, but what you did basically just asked me to hit you in the face. Are you shameless or not?" Fu Qingtong red at the two of them fiercely. "Shu Tian is easy to bully. But I''m not. Jiang Mengyao, I''m warning you. When you see her next time, take a detour a hundred meters away from her. Understand?" There were already people gossiping around them. Shu Tian didn''t want to make a scene and In fact, Fu Qingtong was just saying and decided to let it go, but she never thought that Jiang Mengyao would dare to ssh water on her face. With a ssh, hot water poured over, and no matter how thick her clothes were, they could not protect her skin from the heat. Shu Tian watched as Fu Qingtong was sshed and scalded, and all the anger in her heart was aroused. She frowned at Jiang Mengyao. "What are you doing?!" "You''re bullying me too much!" Jiang Mengyao stood up from her seat and burst into tears without saying anything more as if she was the one who was sshed with hot water. Fu Qingtong took off her coat and rushed up without saying a word. She pulled Jiang Mengyao''s hair and started hitting her. Shu Tian was stunned for only a second and quickly joined in. Two aginst one, Jiang Mengyao couldn''t get any benefits from the two of them, and Tang Zechen was a man. So he couldn''t interfere with so many people watching. In the end, someone called the police, and the police rushed in. The farce finally ended. "All of you,e back with me and make a statement. Since you guys are adults, it''s really indecent for you to start a fight in public like that..." Fu Qingtong was still angry. "You have to use violence to deal with a mistress. Otherwise, she thought that everyone in this society was like her mother, and would have to give in to her!" "You..." "All right, all right, stop arguing. If you don''t stop. All of you will be detained for two days. Now follow me!" ... Four of them were brought to the police station without special treatment, and they could not be treated specially. They could only sit in a line on the bench, and the police officers who would take their statements were still having his meal, so they would probably have to wait for a while. The identity was awkward, and the scene was even more awkward. All four of them were like sitting on thorns. It was probably Tang Zechen who was better. After all, this was his only chance to sit in peace with Shu Tian. After waiting for about 20 minutes, Fu Qingtong couldn''t sit still anymore and asked the police on duty, "How long will we be waiting? I have things to do tonight." "Soon, just wait a little longer. If you knew what the trouble was, you shouldn''t fight!" "I..." "Tong." Shu Tian took her hand and shook her head. "Calm down." Fu Qingtong wouldn''t be so stupid as to go against the police, so she sat down unhappily without saying anything to the police. On the side, Jiang Mengyao quietly looked at her clothes. Thetest coat of the D brand, shoes of the J brand, and bags were also limited. They all had to start in seven figures. The cost of her outfit Jiang Mengyao felt very envious. She looked down at the shoes on her feet, which were still the style fromst year. She shrank back and said disdainfully, "Call me pretentious, you yourself were also a sugar baby." Her voice was low, and what she had said could not be heard clearly. All they could hear was muttering. Shu Tian nced at her and ignored her. After another ten minutes, the police officer who would take their statements finally came back. The four of them went in one by one, and no one could leave first. In the end, it was already dark outside. Shu Tian was tired from what she went through today. She picked up her bag and was about to walk out when she saw a tall man pushing the door in. Shu Tian stopped to the spot. She was quite surprised. "Why are you here?" Li Han looked at her from head to toe, from top to bottom, carefully, to make sure that she wasn''t harmed, and then pulled her into his arms. "I''m very worried about you." Chapter 82 Chapter 82 Apart from these words, he did not say anything else. He did not hold her long and quickly let go of her. Only then did the policeman on the side realized, "Hey, who are you? This is not a ce where you can enter and leave freely. You..." "Liu!" Before he finished speaking, a loud and somewhat hoarse voice suddenly came from behind. The policeman was stunned and went forward to greet him in disbelief when he saw the personing. "Director Li, Why are you here?" "Wouldn''t you kick Boss Li out if I didn''te?" Director Li seemed to be joking, but in fact, there was Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. already a sense of me in his tone. The policeman immediately understood that the man in front of him was not an ordinary person. "I''m sorry, I don''t know you are Boss Li. It''s my fault!" Li Han didn''t care. He just looked at Tang Zechen and Jiang Mengyao. His sharp eyes were unbearable, making them feel iparable pressure. Jiang Mengyao waspletely stunned. She watched this extraordinary man walk in and take Shu Tian into his arms with concern. Besides, the director bowed behind him. What was going on? Wait... What did that man just call him? Boss Li! Could this man be the honorable Li Han with iparably high status that Tang Zechen said?! Jiang Mengyao was shocked by her own thoughts. Not only was Li Han not an old man, but he was very young. Every inch of his body was perfect, especially his face. Although it was expressionless and cold, it could easily disturb her heart. But how could such a man love Shu Tian? Before she could finish her surprise, Li Han had already said, "Boss Tang, we meet again." Tang Zechen felt a burst of tension. He suppressed the panic in his heart. "Nice to meet you." Unexpectedly, Li Han smiled. "It''s not nice. I don''t like to meet others on such asions." Being refuted in front of Shu Tian and Jiang Mengyao, Tang Zechen felt embarrassed and angry. "Boss Li, as awyer, you should be able to handle this kind of situation freely." Li Han held Shu Tian tightly in his arms and put one hand in his pocket. "I''m protective to those who rted to me. I don''t want my woman to be affected. This is the only time. If we meet again, I''m afraid I won''t be polite." Tang Zechen was so choked by Li Han that he had nothing to say. Fu Qingtong proudly raised her middle finger to Tang Zechen. Anyway, now that the director was on their side, there was nothing to be afraid of. Seeing the three of them walk out of the police station, Tang Zechen''s face turned dark and his hands clenched tightly. Jiang Mengyao didn''t look back until Li Hanpletely disappeared. Looking at Tang Zechen beside her, she suddenly felt like she herself was a joke. Her previous show- off in front of Shu Tian was so ridiculous at this moment. Not long after Shu Tian''s divorce, she had such an excellent and perfect man with her. Shu Tian didn''t even care about Tang Zechen at all. When Shu Tian first got together with Tang Zechen, Jiang Mengyao was very envious. Her family was not rich and she just wanted to find a good person to marry. But when she saw Tang Zechen living in a vi and driving a sports car, she wavered in her mind and betrayed her friendship. But she didn''t feel that she was wrong. Everyone had the right to fight for a good life. Who let Shu Tian inferior to her? But when she saw Li Han today, she realized that she was wrong. Even without Tang Zechen, there would be a better man by Shu Tian''s side. Why? Why did all men like her? What''s better about Shu Tian? She was not bad herself! The jealousy in Jiang Mengyao''s eyes turned into hatred, and her mind was filled with Li Han''s appearance. Shu Tian was not worthy, and only she was worthy of his love! ... On the other side, after Shu Tian and Li Han left the police station, they went straight back to Imperial Garden. Neither of them spoke on the way, so the atmosphere was a little depressing. Finally, they entered the house. Before Shu Tian breathed a sigh of relief, Li Han suddenly pressed her against the door. There was only a sensor light in the entrance. When the two of them quieted down, the light above them disappeared soon. The moonlight shone through the window, and it was half-past eight. "Didn''t you say you were going shopping with Fu Qingtong? Why are you with Tang Zechen?" He pinched her chin with some force. Shu Tian was afraid that he would misunderstand, so she quickly exined, "We happened to meet at dinner. Later, Tong helped me settle the score and started a fight with Jiang Mengyao. I was afraid that Tong would suffer, so I also started..." Thest words were barely audible in the Li Han''s stern and oppressive eyes. Li Han''s emotion did not soften because of her exnation. His eyes fell on an inconspicuous but ring nail mark on her jaw. He moved his thumb over and pressed her that mark hard. It hurt so much that she took a deep breath and tilted her head to hide. "It hurts!" Li Han didn''t let go. "You never learned the lesson unless you hurt. How many times have I told you not to contact Tang Zechen too much? Why didn''t you listen?" "I said I happened to meet them. I didn''t know they would be there!" And what could she do when events that took ceter got out of her control? The more Shu Tian thought about it, the more aggrieved she became. "All you do is me me. I don''t want to meet them..." "Since you don''t want to, you should avoid them." "Okay! It''s my fault. I deserve it, okay?" Li Han stared at her angry little face and did not speak. There was a sense of judgment in his eyes, which made Shu Tian feel angrier. What was that look in his eyes? ''He doesn''t believe her?'' she thought. Somehow, she stood on tiptoe, put her hands around his neck, and pulled his head down with all her might. She kissed him furiously with her eyes closed. Li Han stiffened for a moment, but he quickly took the initiative to ept the kiss. The quiet living room was filled with the sound of their kisses. Shu Tian could not breathe several times when they kissed. Just a second before she suffocated, Li Han let her go. She was panting heavily, and he was not much better. Their breathing was all out of control. Seeing her red face, he said in a deep voice, "Your kiss skill is still not improved." Shu Tian blushed and felt shy. She wanted to walk pass him and go upstairs, but her wrist was grabbed by him after she took a step. "Youfort me only by one kiss?" When she made mistakes, she would please him to avoid punishment. Thus, if she was allowed to get away with it this time, she would do it again. Shu Tian''s lips were still swollen. "I''m not wrong." "Why did you kiss me?" Wasn''t she just to please him? Shu Tian narrowed her eyes like him. "I just want to thank you for picking me up from the police station." In fact, he didn''t know how touched she was when she saw himing over and holding her in his arms. If it weren''t for Tang Zechen and Jiang Mengyao''s presence, Shu Tian would have cried out. Li Han didn''t say anything and waited for her to finish. Shu Tian took a deep breath, lowered her head slightly, and looked at the buttons of his shirt. "It''s been a long time since anyone picked me up, so, thank you." What she longed for was the most insignificant little things, but also the most touching. Li Han feltfortable a lot in the heart, but his face was still cold. "In the future, don''t refuse to answer the phone. If I can''t find you, I''ll be worried. Looking at you were at the police station, especially with Tang Zechen, I was very worried." "Are you worried too?" Shu Tian answered subconsciously. Li Han pursed his lips slightly and said again, "No, I''m very unhappy." Chapter 83 Chapter 83 "..." The corner of Shu Tian''s mouth twitched. He really said it all beneficial for him. But he just said she didn''t answer the phone. "I didn''t miss your call. Did you call me?" Li Han gritted his teeth. "Many times." "... Wait a minute." Shu Tian opened her bag and took out the phone. Then she realized that the phone had been out of power. "No wonder I didn''t answer your phone. It''s out of power." Li Han chuckled and said sarcastically, "Unsurprising." Shu Tian was a little embarrassed and asked carefully, "Have you eaten?" Li Han replied angrily. "I can''t find you. Am I in the mood to eat?" Shu Tian knew she was wrong and did not talk back. She pointed to the kitchen and said. "I will cook for you." "Are you hungry?" Li Han asked her. Shu Tian shook her head. "Not really." Although she didn''t have dinner, she had no appetite. After all, it had been so long after dinner. As soon as she finished speaking, Shu Tian felt very dizzy. She eximed and was already carried by Li Han. "Ah! What are you doing!" "Since you''re not hungry, then let''s do something else." Shu Tian felt helpless. Sheined coquettishly, "I''m so tired..." Li Han raised his eyebrows. "Just let me do it." "..." Shu Tian couldn''t do anything but obey. ... Two dayster, Shu Tian went to the mall counter to get the reserved gift. There were two kinds of packaging: ck and red, ck represented high-end meaning, while red represented happy events. Li Han definitely liked ck. But since it was his birthday, she still chose red. At lunch, Li Han asked Zhang Bikun to take Shu Tian upstairs. During the break of lunch, Li Han hinted at Shu Tian more than once. Shu Tian pretended not to know. Li Han became more impatient and was angry finally. Shu Tian held back herughter the whole time and she was relieved tough aftering out of the office. Zhang Bikun looked at Shu Tian in confusion. "Is there anything happy about Miss Shu?" Shu Tian waved her hand. "Uh, interesting. Li Han is so cute. Hahaha..." Zhang Bikun felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He raised his hand and touched his ears. Did he hear something just now? What did Miss Shu say? Cute? Was it used to describe Boss Li? When he understood what Shu Tian meant, Zhang Bikun immediately realized love was addictive, and even Li Han was praised as a cute person. It was really umon. After finishing her work in the afternoon, Shu Tian specially asked Wei Xiangming for leave because she was a little scared at the thought of Liu Wei''s previous attitude, but to her surprise, Wei Xiangming''s attitude was very good. Wei Xiangming checked the work Shu Tian had finished and agreed. "The work is almost done. If you have something to do, go first. It''s okay." Shu Tian was very grateful. "Thank you!" "Go ahead." After leaving the Hanyi Law Office, Shu Tian went straight home. She bought a lot of balloons from the Inte the day before. The balloons were mailed to thepany today just in time, so Shu Tian could decorate the house. There were more than a hundred balloons, and her hands were sore from preparing them. The balloons were in light blue with a silver thread, flew to the ceiling, looking very beautiful. On the way back, she specially ordered a cake in about six-inch. The cake was not big but very delicate. Seeing that time was early, Shu Tian took out two snowke steak from the kitchen refrigerator, and then took the pot and simply pickled them with onion and ck pepper. She had nned well so that This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. the steaks could be put on the te on time. She lit a candlestick and ced it in the middle of the table. Everything was ready and she waited for him toe back. Shu Tian was suddenly a little nervous. She didn''t know if Li Han would like these. Picking up the phone on the table, Li Han had called her three times after work. She didn''t answer the phone. Anyway, he should know she was at home from the phone location service. Thinking of this, Shu Tian didn''t answer the phone finally. She just wanted to surprise him and sat in the living room. From 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., the clock gradually moved to 8:00 p.m., and until almost 9:00 p.m., he didn''t show up. Shu Tian gradually couldn''t bear it. Even if he worked overtime, it was time toe back. Was there a social engagement? It wouldn''t be that bad. She picked up the phone and put it down. She hesitated and dialed him. Unexpectedly, no one answered. Shu Tian was a little discouraged and fell back on the sofa dejectedly. She looked at the ceiling and muttered to herself, "Where will he go? It is sote..." ... At the same time, Li Han couldn''t get through to Shu Tian''s phone and asked Zhang Bikun to confirm her location. When Li Han found out that she was at home, he rxed and took the car, and drove north of the city. Forty minutester, the car drove into an ancient house. A kind woman in her forties came to greet him. "Mr. Li is finally here. Your grandparents have been waiting all afternoon. Please go in." Li Han nodded and walked quickly into the house without saying anything. The house decorations were perfect. There was all good mahogany furniture, and each piece cost hundreds of thousands of yuan. Thendscape paintings hanging on the wall were the paintings of the most famous painters in modern times, and they were priceless. Hearing the sound, the old woman sitting on the wooden chair in the living room turned around and her eyes lit up with joy. "Is Xiaohan back?" A smile finally appeared on Li Han''s indifferent face. "Grandma, grandpa." "Come over and let me take a look." The old woman was Li Han''s grandmother. She held his hand and her eyes were filled with joy. "You came here once a year. Your grandfather and I are very concerned about you. I think you are thinner. Don''t work too much, and have a rest." Li Han answered happily. "I know, grandma." "You just promise, but you don''t care about what I said!" Li Han smiled and said nothing. "Let''s eat. It''s your birthday today. Your grandma has been busy since the afternoon. She made it all by herself." said Li Han''s grandpa. The three of them walked to the kitchen and there was food on the table, either sweet or sour vors. There were sweet and sour pork ribs, sweet and sour pork with pineapple, prawns with ketchup, and so on. Li Han remembered that he liked this taste when he was a child, and then was slowly used to a light diet after studying abroad. Li Han sat down and his grandma filled him arge bowl of the meal. In fact, Li Han had not eaten on time all year round and could not eat so much, but he still managed to eat all of them. During the meal, Li Han was a little absent-minded and asionally remembered Shu Tian. Today was his birthday. She knew it, but she didn''t say anything. He didn''t know what she was doing now. "Xiaohan, you are not young. You should have a girlfriend. Your grandfather and I are looking forward to you getting married soon, and someone will take care of you." His grandma suddenly advised him earnestly, "We don''t have high requirements. As long as the girl is good and considerate, we don''t mind whether her family is rich or not. The main thing is you two can go on well with each other." Li Han paused and looked down at the white rice grains in the bowl. "I see. I''ll find a girlfriend as soon as possible." "Also, you shoulde here with your mother. Usually, your motheres, and you shoulde with her, too. After all, she is your mother. It''s not easy for your mother to bring you up. The whole family can''t be separated..." Speaking of this, his grandma was about to cry. In fact, over the years, Li Han''s mother, Liu Yufang, had another child after her divorce. It must be awkward to reconstitute another family. As for Li Han, he was like an outsider in the family. After studying abroad for four years and returning to work, he hardly had a day at home, so it was inevitable that he would be embarrassed in the family. However, it was always the wishes of his grandparents. Naturally, Li Han would not say much and agreed. After dinner, Li Han was in a hurry to leave. It was only after 8:00 p.m. "Why are you so anxious to leave? There''s no one at home to apany you. Why don''t you stay here today?" Li Han refused without thinking. "No need, grandma. I still have work to do. I''lle to see you and grandpa another day." ... On the way back, Li Han received a call from Liu Yufang who wished him a happy birthday. Every year, it was the same word. In fact, he had long been unable to feel anything, not even disappointment. For so many years, he had been studying by himself, graduating by himself, starting his ownpany, and earning his own money. Even if he had used some money for his family, he had never asked for anything from his family. Liu Yufang treated him well. At least in his heart, he understood that with Li Qiu, a new family, and a new husband, she didn''t have the energy to care about him anymore. The closer he drove to Imperial Garden, the more remote the roads became. The rich areas were often in the suburbs with better air. The winding mountain and the dark night added some dreariness. Li Han quickly stepped on the elerator and the car sped away, leaving the night behind him. It must be another sleepless night. The car was parked in the yard, and Li Han looked up at the vi in front of him. The light was not on in the vi, so Shu Tian was probably asleep. Li Han became more and more disappointed, and pulled out a cigarette and lit it on. He smoked very fast. The spicy gas poured into his lungs and stimted his nerves. When he came back to his senses, he woke up a little. He put out the cigarette butt and got out of the car and walked into the vi. The sensor lights in the hallway lit up. Before he changed his shoes, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. The light blue balloons filled the roof, and the silver threads hanging in the air created a lively atmosphere. Not far away, he saw the cake and steaks on the table of the kitchen. The candlestick was lit for a long time, and half of it was already burned. He had seen all of these. He was surprised and happy. He even could hear his strong and powerful heartbeat. Then he looked around the living room and couldn''t wait to find the woman who had arranged all this. Chapter 84 Chapter 84 Finally, Li Han saw her huddling on the sofa in the living room. He changed his shoes and walked over lightly. The moonlight outside the window streamed in and phone in her hand, which was unlocked with the screen on. Li Han slowly pulled the phone out of her palm. He meant to put it aside, but he nced at his name on the screen. He paused and looked over carefully. It was a text message that she didn''t send out, which read, "When will youe back? I have something to show you." It was already typed in the input box. She could send it with a single tap. Why hadn''t she sent it to him until she finally fell asleep in hesitation? Was she afraid that he would guess the surprise she prepared for him or that she herself would reveal the secret surprise? Imagining that scene, Li Han''s eyes softened instantly. He squatted down and reached out. He was going to wake her up, but he changed his mind and lowered his head to kiss her when he touched her. Although he kissed very gently, Shu Tian still felt that it was difficult to breathe in her sleep. She slowly opened her eyes and suddenly saw a very familiar face. Shu Tian was startled and pushed him away, "You, you''re back?" Li Han''s eyes were deep, shining like obsidian, "Yes." Shu Tian didn''t seem to be fully awake yet. She raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, after which she saw the balloons in the room... Damn it! How could she forget about this! Li Han looked at her increasingly unnatural movements and asked, "Why didn''t you tell me?" Shu Tian blinked shyly, "I just want to give you a surprise..." She didn''t expect that she screwed it up due to sleepiness in the end. "Everyone else''s surprise is prepared meticulously. What about yours?" He meant that he did note home for dinner tonight. At the mention of this, Shu Tian was embarrassed, "How did I know you wouldn''te back here?" Otherwise, she would have asked him toe back in advance with an excuse. However, now that he was back, she was even more embarrassed. Li Han looked at her lively expression. He felt that the depression smouldered when he was in the old residence tonight almost dissipated now. He raised his hand to touch her fluffy head, with his eyes gentle and charming, "It''s notte now." Then, Shu Tian watched him walking into the dining room and sitting in his seat. He sliced the cold steak and put a piece into his mouth. Shu Tian followed him there, "Stop eating. It''s stone-cold." "I''m Hungry." Li Han, who had eaten the whole bowl of rice tonight, didn''t even blush when he told this lie. Shu Tian didn''t doubt him, "Then let me heat it for you." As she spoke, she reached out to take it away but was blocked by Li Han, "No, it''s good." "Are you sure?" She fried this steak at least two hours ago. It was not only stone-cold but also a little tough. Li Han nodded, "Sure." He couldn''t bear to let her bustle around in the kitchen at this hour of the night. Seeing that he was not reluctant at all to eat the steak, Shu Tian didn''t say anything more. Turning her eyes, she suddenly thought of the birthday present for him. She ran to the kitchen and mysteriously took out a red box. Then she handed it to him, "Well... This is for you. I don''t know what you will like, Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. and you don''tck anything. In the end, I just buy this. Open it." Li Han looked at the festive red package. Hesitating for a moment, he opened ityer byyer and finally saw a pair of exquisite crystal cufflinks and a tie. They were in the style that he usually dressed in. He also liked the brand very much, but he always bought high-quality tailor-made clothes of the brand rather than those supplied to stores. However, what she gave him was better than any high-quality tailor-made clothes. "When did you buy it?" He remembered that goods of this brand had to be bought by appointment, which meant that she had already started preparing his gift long ago. She just kept it secret to him. Shu Tian was a little speechless when he mentioned it, "It was the day I went to the police station." Obviously, Li Han didn''t expect it, either. He nced at her yfully, "It''s really hard for you." "... It was a coincidence." Li Han knew that she was thin-skinned, so he didn''t say anything more. He immediately took off his cufflinks and put on the new pair. Then he reached out his hands in front of her, "Are you satisfied?" Shu Tian blushed at his question and retorted in a low voice, "... It''s me who should ask you this, isn''t it?" Li Han withdrew his arm and intently stared at her, "As long as it''s from you, I''m satisfied." Her heart suddenly thudded wildly that it couldn''t beat faster. Perhaps every man who rarely coaxed women was the same. One day, when he said words of love to you, he would be dozens of times more romantic than ordinary people. "It''s good that you like it." In contrast, Shu Tian was a lot more nervous. She stammered out a blessing, "Then I wish... I wish you a happy birthday." Under the bright and soft yellow light of the restaurant, her face also became warm. She stood at the table elegantly and smiled slightly, which made Li Han feel peaceful. This was his birthday of thirty-three years old. Since he was sixteen, he had not celebrated his birthday anymore, nor had he received any birthday gifts. Cakes, balloons, and big meals had nothing to do with him. His only activity on his birthday was to go back to grandma and grandpa''s house for dinner. However, it was hard to pretend to be happy there. Now that he came back to see all this, he was surprised. He thought that she had not prepared anything for him because she forgot his birthday. He never thought that she had done so much behind him. "I want something else besides a birthday present." His voice was hoarse and low, falling into her ears like a sonata. Shu Tian leaned closer to listen to him, "What?" "You." Shu Tian straightened up, "I suddenly remembered that there''s another file that hasn''t been sorted out. Wait for me..." Before she could finish speaking, she had been stopped by Li Han''s terrifying eyes. Talking about work at this time, well, it was indeed a little disappointing. But... She was really a little scared. She had known how energetic this man was on the bed. Tonight was probably another sleepless night. She was afraid of thinking about it. More importantly, she somehow bought one "avant-garde" underwear. Although she had already changed into it, she backed out again at this point. While she was lost in various fancies, Li Han had already stood up from his seat. He slightly bent to match her height, with one hand propped up on the dining table. He said yfully, "In return for all you''ve prepared for me, I will definitely ''perform'' well tonight." Shu Tian hurried to wave her hand, "No need. You''re too polite... Huh..." Li Han took off his suit jacket and put it on the chair. He looked at the second floor, "Have you taken a shower?" "Not... Not yet... Ah!" Before Shu Tian could find a good reason, she had already been carried in Li Han''s arms. She wrapped her arms around his neck in fear, "What are you doing?" "Can''t you guess what I''m doing?" "..." "I know you''ve taken a shower. You have the smell of my body shampoo." Shu Tian was shocked and muttered, "Are you a dog? Your nose is so sensitive." Li Han was in a good mood and passed over her remarks. His thin lips curled up, "Say all you want to say now. I''ll make you speechless in bedter." Shu Tian was so shy that she couldn''t raise her head. She buried her face in his chest, and her heart skipped a beat because of his words. At this time, Li Han was the most savage and manly... Chapter 85 Chapter 85 Once sex started, it was hard to end. After a night of indulgence, the next day, she couldn''t get out of bed because of pain all over her body. The fact that Shu Tian couldn''t get out of bed didn''t exist in her first 24 years of life. But ever since she met Li Han, it had be amon urrence. At first, she really tried to escape every day. But gradually she miraculously adapted. Human being was the creature that could form habits. She could even adapt to a monster like Li Han. Shu Tian was so emotional that she opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling above her in a daze. Some adult scenes ofst night shed across her mind, and her heart beat faster. Suddenly, the man next to her turned his body sideways, and put his long arms around her shoulder and pressed her into his arms. During overnight, the stubble on his chin came out a little. At this moment, it rubbed against Shu Tian''s white and tender cheek, making her feel a little tingling. She shrank her neck. "I feel itchy..." "You''re awake?" Hearing her voice, Li Han loosened her a little and looked down at the woman''s flushed face. "It''s only after eight o''clock. Why don''t you sleep a little longer?" Shu Tian sighed and looked hopeless. "My body is sore..." Li Han said, "Do you need a massage?" Shu Tian immediately widened her eyes and said three times in a row, "No, no, no." Li Han didn''t continue to insist on giving her a massage. After all, if he was sexual aroused during the massage, it was he who felt ufortable. Seeing her like this, he couldn''t bear to embarrass her anymore. It was rare that they didn''t have to rush to work early on the weekend. The warmth ofst night had not yet dissipated. The two of them were hugging each other on the bed. Neither of them spoke, but the atmosphere was so good that they wished that time would stop at this moment. After a while, when Shu Tian was about to fall asleep, the phone at the head of the bed vibrated. When she opened her eyes, she saw Li Han take the phone over. He nced at the screen and frowned slightly, and then said in a deep voice, "I''ll go pick up the phone." He took his phone and walked to the balcony. When he turned around, he didn''t forget to close the sliding door to iste the sound. Shu Tiany on the bed and her eyes following the man standing on the balcony. In the morning, the bright sunshine fell on his shoulder, and his whole body seemed to be coated with ayer of gold light. asionally, he turned his side. She could see him talking, but could not hear what he was saying exactly. Shu Tian forgot the rest of sleepiness. She couldn''t help guessing who was calling. This phone call could make him frown in an instant and turn his back to her. On the balcony, after making sure that Shu Tian couldn''t hear him, Li Han answered the call. "George?" "Han, here''s the thing. Chu Jing''s condition is not very optimistic in this routine examination this morning. The results are a littleplicated. I hope you and the doctor cane over." Fluent English came from the microphone. These words reached Li Han''s ears, enough to make him depressed. "What about her?" "There''s nothing wrong with her for the time being. Chu Jing''s skin was identally burned by the sun this morning. Now that the wound hasn''t healed, the details are still waiting for further tests. This has Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! never happened before. You know, Han, how special her body is, we can''t afford to gamble..." The man frowned. "How did she get burned?" "I don''t know. Chu Jing said she identally opened the curtains." George''s voice was still in his ear. The warm sunlight just now suddenly turned cold. Li Han''s face was tense and he listened silently. For a moment, he finally agreed. "Okay, I''ll take the earliest flight today. If anything happens, please keep in touch with me at any time." ... Ten minutester, he walked back into the room and immediately met the inquisitive gaze of the little woman on the bed. Li Han quietly averted his eyes and walked to the bed with long legs. He said the bad news, "I''m going to America for a few days on business." Shu Tian was stunned and sat up. "So suddenly?" "Hum." He darkened his eyes but he didn''t exin much. He just said, "Something urgent." Shu Tian looked at his expression. It was soft just now, but now it became deadpan. She couldn''t help but ask curiously, "Is it... Business?" Li Han looked at her and didn''t say anything. He seemed to be thinking about something. After a long time, he nodded. "Yes." "When are you leaving?" "This afternoon." "Ah?" Shu Tian''s mouth opened slightly, as she couldn''t help but be surprised. There was a hint of loss in her voice that she didn''t notice. "This is too urgent..." She asked again, "How long are you going?" "I don''t know yet. We''ll see what happens when we get there." Shu Tian nodded. Fine. After all, it was an emergency and everything was up in the air. But just after his birthday, he had to go to work again. She was a little discouraged. Li Han felt remorse in his heart when he saw her drooping her head unhappily. These emotions formed a big and wrapped his heart tightly. The betrayal after lying made him afraid to look into her eyes. He suddenly felt a little scared. If Shu Tian knew about Jiang Chujing''s existence one day, what kind of choice would she make? She was arrogant. No matter what, the result must be unbearable to him. Therefore, he must not let Shu Tian know all this. He could not afford to gamble. At least now he was not ready to let her know. Li Han leaned over slightly and held the woman''s cheek. His forehead was against her, and his tone was very gentle. "Wait for me at home. Don''t go anywhere." Shu Tian was a little confused, but she stillforted him softly. "Where can I go? You know, I don''t even have a ce to live except here. So don''t worry." Li Han didn''t say anything. He just held her tighter. Hopefully, she could really stay by his side as she said. Chapter 86 Chapter 86 At 2:30 in the afternoon, Shu Tian arrived at the airport by car to see him off. Ling Junze also went with them. Perhaps wanting to see Shu Tian, Ling Junze was still waiting in the airport lobby after the check. The three of them gathered. Shu Tian stood aside in a white woollen coat that reached her calves. Her face was clean without makeup. She was as beautiful as a young girl under twenty years old. Ling Junze''s eyes lit up and whispered in Li Han''s ear, "Beautiful~" Unexpectedly, the old man protected her like protecting the calf and nced at him sternly, "Did I admit you to look?" "..." Ling Junze rubbed his nose. Well, it was self-defeating, and talking to Shu Tin was more Shu Tian nodded awkwardly. "Yes." "Oh, that''s great. I didn''t have this fortune. I was pulled over as soon as I got off the operating table to catch the ne. It was inhumane..." "Docter Ling is so outstanding, you will definitely find the person who really loves you." Ling Junze was just trying tough at himself, but he didn''t expect Shu Tian toe with such a serious persuasion. He was immediately embarrassed and even a little sad, "I''d better not talk." Shu Tian thought she had said something wrong and blinked innocently at Li Han, who did not change his face, "Ignore him." After a few greetings, Ling Junze didn''t act as the light bulb. He went to the waiting room alone, leaving time for the two of them to talk alone. "You should go too." No matter how reluctant Shu Tian was, she still had to let him go. Li Han raised his hand and stroked her smooth side face. He had been used to this kind of life for many years. When he started his business, he slept on the ne, and now he was a little reluctant to part with her. Reluctant? This word was really new to him. He had no one to worry about. He was alone in the wind and rain all year round. The house was always cold and empty. It was more of a long-term residence than a home. It didn''t make much sense for him to go back or not. But now with Shu Tian, everything seemed different. Knowing that someone was waiting for him to he would not want to leave. Like now. Li Han looked at her for a while, and countless words that he wanted to say became a sentence, "Wait for me toe back." "I see. How worried are you about me?" Shu Tian didn''t know why he kept saying this today. She made a face at him, looking cute and pleasant. Li Han looked at her with his heart melting, and the faint warmth of his fingertips made him reluctant to let go. He grabbed her back and pulled her into his arms. "I''ll be back soon." Shu Tian nodded in his arms, her eyes slightly moist. "OK, I''ll wait for you." They hugged for a while. People around them were moved by this beautiful picture from time to time, but they did not know that the camera in the corner of the airport also recorded it. The dark lens kept recording the two matching figures and soon disappeared into the crowd. ... The ne took off andnded, and finally stopped at the airport in New Zend. It was early morning when they got off the ne. A ck nanny car parked on the side of the road from the VIP passage. The assistant opened the door for him. Li Han and Ling Junze sat in, their faces full of fatigue after the long journey. They were silent on the way, and the car twisted and turned, finally driving into a small town in the suburbs. The air was very good here, not as cold as in China. It was suitable for cultivation and vacation, so Li Han chose this ce as a treatment center at that time. Forty minutester, the car arrived at the sanatorium. Dr. George and his assistant were already standing outside the door to greet them. "Wee, Mr. Li." George came forward. The 50-year-old British man was still tall and strong. Li Han held the hand that created countless medical miracles. "Hello, George." "I haven''t seen you for half a year. You look even stronger." George, speaking fluent English, patted Li Han on the shoulder jokingly and turned to Ling Junze. "And you, my old rival, Ling." Both of them worked in medical care, and to some extent, they were rivals. Ling Junze smiled. "See you again." A few people entered the sanatorium. Jiang Chujing was still in the istion ward. George carefully prepared the istion clothes, leaving Li Han alone to talk, and he called Junze to go to the office. Standing at the door of the ward, Li Han was in a more serious mood than ever. Apart from her unpleasant condition, there seemed to be something else he didn''t want to face. After a moment of silence, he raised his hand to knock on the door and pushed the door open after getting an answer. The room was not brighter than the outside. The thick curtains were closed, and only a white light was on the roof. It was specially made for her illness. Her body could not see the light, or it would fester. Li Han turned around and closed the door. Before he could turn around, a soft body hugged him, "Han, I miss you so much." The woman''s short hair swept across his arm, and Li Han froze for a moment before he came back to Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. his senses and gently hugged her. "How are you keeping these days?" Hearing his question, Jiang Chujing took a step back and looked up from his arms. Her palm-sized face was pale, and her eyes were big but not very energetic. She should look good, but she was tortured by the illness and lost her original glory. "Dr. George said it was not bad. It was just that I identally saw the sun this morning and felt a little ufortable." "Why are you so careless?" Jiang Chujing bit her lip and did not dare to tell him that she had hurt herself on purpose so that she could see him. She stared at the face in front of her in a daze. After not seeing him for half a year, he became more and more mature, and his every move was full of masculinity. Sensing her gaze, Li Han pushed her back on the shoulder and pulled away quietly. "Chu Jing?" Only then did Jiang Chujing regain her senses. "I just identally fell and pressed against the curtains." Li Han''s heart softened when he saw the new fester on her arm. "I''ll ask Dr. George to give you a general examinationter so that I can rest assured." Jiang Chujing knew that he came because of her illness, but it was more disappointing to hear him say that. She had been sick for so many years, and the most she heard from him was about her illness. Besides, there seemed to be no other topics between them. When she was studying for a doctorate, god made a big joke on her. She got this rare blood disease. She was sent to New Zend for treatment. For five years, she had changed from a young medical goddess to a haggard patient. And he had gone from that poor boy with nothing to the pinnacle of his sess. He was so outstanding and respected that even the American legal profession regarded him as a case study. Jiang Chujing was happy and proud of him, but she was also secretly uneasy. In the face of such a gap, she became self-abased and had no confidence. She didn''t want them to meet and only talk about her illness, but she could not change anything. She had lost the opportunity to interact with the outside world and lost her own life. Apart from this, she had nothing else to talk about. Jiang Chujing quietly clenched her hands and said nothing after all. "Okay, I''ll go." Chapter 87 Chapter 87 Li Han took her to the examination room and pointed to the observation screen in the room next to her. "Don''t be afraid. I''ll be right here watching you." Jiang Chujing nodded hard and followed the paramedic. Li Han, George, and Ling Junze walked to the observation screen and watched Jiang Chujing go in and out of various medical machines. The results of her examination were printed by the machine on the other side at almost the same time. There was almost no such advanced equipment at home. If Ling Junze hadn''t provided special self- developed medicine to this medical center, he probably wouldn''t have known about it. Jiang Chujing''s blood disease was very special. It was so special that there was only one case in the world. In the beginning, she was allergic to ultraviolet light, and her skin would be burned if she was in the sunter. Then she almost lost the ability to self-cure. All her blood indicators had been abnormal all year round. Each of them was fatal to Jiang Chujing, and Li Han was painful undoubtedly. After a long time, the inspection was over, and they got all the results. Li Han wasn''t professional and he didn''t understand theplicated data, but Ling Junze and George looked relieved. Ling Junze breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It''s better than what we thought." "Yes, it seems that we have over-reacted." After George finished speaking, he smiled and looked at Li Han. "Han, you can rest assured now. Chujing is fine. Look, except for the soterocyte, everything else looks quite good." Li Han closed his eyes and breathed a long sigh of relief. It was as if someone who had sunk to the bottom of the sea had been rescued. The feeling of being pressed by tens of millions of tons of water had disappeared. Seeing him like this, Ling Junze patted him on the shoulder. There was no need to say anything between friends. One movement was enough. He knew he had suffered a lot and spent much time and money all these years because of Jiang Chujing''s illness. Obviously, Jiang Chujing also heard the news. Li Han bumped into her as soon as he walked out of the door. Her voice was slightly trembling. "Han, that''s so good." Li Han also couldn''t hide his excitement and he patted her on the backfortingly. Actually, he was responsible for her illness. If it weren''t because of him, her illness wouldn''t have be so serious perhaps. The woman in his arms was trembling violently, but another face slowly appeared in his mind. That sweet and lovely girl in her early twenties was sent to him as if it was destined. The bnce of fate was torturing his conscience. He didn''t know if he could maintain the bnce. Jiang Chujing was his treasure and she was a secret that Shu Tian didn''t know. When the two of them separated, Ling Junze said. "George said that there will be a series of centralized treatment and we need to go to the Center for the Dead Research where the reception is bad. It may be inconvenient for us to have a phone call with each other. You should tell that person in advance." It was self-evident who he was referring to. Li Han chuckled and walked past him. "It''s better not to tell." ... On the other side, Shu Tian spent the rest of the weekend at home. She was lonely because she was the only one in the big vi. She didn''t know how Li Han had endured all these years. Wasn''t it scary to live in such a big house alone? She had to turn on the lights at night to sleep. She thought of him when she watched TV. She thought of him when she ate. She thought of what he was like even when she was lying on the sofa. She felt that she had a kind of disease -- lovesickness, and it was serious. She bought a bunch of snacks and left them at home. She thought as she ate chips that when she started to like Li Han. Was it when he forced her to live here? Was it when he arranged her work carefully? Or was it when he helped her teach Liu Lifang a lesson? Thinking about it carefully, she didn''t think she would have any rtionship with him at the beginning. To be exact, she didn''t dare to. It all changed at the moment he found the divorce agreement which was given to her by Tang Zechen. At that time, he said he wanted to help her win thewsuit and get everything back, which made her feel reliable. As a result, she didn''t feel ufortable for the first time when they had sex that day. Since then, she had begun to ept it slowly. Li Han was her first man and he gave her many things that Tang Zechen had never given to her. The nominal marriage was not evenparable to the time she spent with Li Han in less than half a year. He was tall and handsome. Besides, he was rich and smart. She couldn''t find any of his weaknesses. Such a man was charming and attractive. He had left now and she was the only one at home, She was looking forward to working days for the first time. If she was busy, she wouldn''t have had so much time to think about it. Shu Tian cleared up the food and went back to the bedroom. Before she went to bed, she sent Li Han a text message. She waited for his reply for a long time, but he didn''t text her. In the end, she fell asleep. ... The next morning, when she woke up, she checked her phone first. Unfortunately, there was only one text message she sent and no response. Was he busy? Shu Tian felt a little disappointed. Then she got up and went to the bathroom to wash up, but the disappointment didn''tst long and it turned into shock. This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. From eight o''clock onwards, her phone kept ringing. Fu Qingtong, Zhang Rui''er, Ye Lihua, and even Shu Changlei all called her. And what they said inmon was: look at today''s headline news. Shu Tian''s heart sank. She had a hunch that there was something important about her. She had done a lot of psychological construction, but she was still stunnedpletely when she saw the news. The most prominent thing on the front page upying most of the space was the intimate photo of her and Li Han. The background of the photo was the airport. It was taken the day before yesterday when she was about to take the ne. She and Li Han hugged each other affectionately. It was clear enough to see that Li Han touched her face. The title was undoubtedly rted to the divorce casest time. She flipped to see thements. Theizensmented on it with their most viciousnguage. Netizen A: She said he was only her colleague before, but now she pped herself in the face. I had never seen such a shameless person before. I wanted to see how the Hanyi Law Office could lie about it this time. Netizen B: Yes, Shu Tian was too shameless. She went out to hook up with others before she got divorced. It was unlucky for her husband to have such a wife... Netizen C: I remembered it was reported that this woman wanted an inheritance. It was really disgusting. Why didn''t she die? Who gave her the courage to live in this world? ... Shu Tian looked at thements one after another, and her face instantly turned pale. She took two steps backward and leaned against the cab to barely maintain the bnce. Chapter 88 Chapter 88 The wording in the entire report was biased towards Tang Zechen, so there was no doubt that the one who took this photo was definitely Tang Zechen. She knew he wouldn''t give up so easily, but she didn''t expect him to turn things upside down to this extent. At first, she was helpless and scared. Now she became angry. Shu Tian took her phone and called Tang Zechen, who quickly picked it up, "Tang Zechen, did you take the photo?" "Yes, it''s all your doing." Obviously, the other party didn''t mean to hide anything. Shu Tian smiled, "Do you think there''s nothing else I can do after giving the video to your mother?" Before Tang Zechen could say anything, she added, "I also have the video and recording of your dogging in the car with Jiang Mengyao before. I know your records of hotel stay and every time you have sex with her at our home. Do you think I can''t do anything about you?" "You!" Tang Zechen''s voice charged with tension, then he pretended to be rxed and smiled, "Do you think I will believe it?" At that time, Shu Tian had just been pushed out of the door. How could she be in the mood to prepare for this? Shu Tian was not in the mood for that, but Li Han was. If it hadn''t been the man who had prepared at that time, she would have to bawl now! "Tang Zechen, loving you is the most disgusting and regretful thing I''ve ever done in my life. How could I fall in love with you? Falling in love with something worse than a beast!" Shu Tian was not a person to speak hard. Even when they got divorced, she did not insult his personality, but now she really couldn''t help it. A man did something wrong and didn''t know how to reflect on himself, but he was so focused on confusing right and wrong that he exposed her to the public and let everyone who didn''t know the truth dish out criticism of her. It was so despicable that Shu Tian had never seen it before. "Shu Tian, you don''t have to blow off on the spur of the moment. If you leave Li Han now, I''ll withdraw all the news or change your divorce request." "Change it?" Shu Tian''s smile made him feel horrent, "I won''t change even if you kneel down and beg me now. Tang Zechen, all my patience andpassion have been exhausted by you. I''m going to let you lose this casepletely!" After saying that, Shu Tian hung up the phone and cklisted Tang Zechen''s number again without any dy. And then she called Li Han, but no one picked up the phone for a long time. She was answered by an automatic reply in a cold mechanical female voice, "Sorry..." Not in the mood to hear it all, Shu Tian locked her phone and threw it away. After washing up quickly, she took a taxi to thepany. From the moment she entered the door, to the corridor, to the office, and then to the tea room, This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. everyone looked at her with such various and meaningful eyes. In their eyes, there were probing, judgment, envy, pity, sympathy, full of malice, disdain... Every step she took was heavy as if she stepped on a knife. Without Li Han, she had to bear all the looks alone. Finally, she sat on her seat, and Zhang Rui''er didn''te over to talk to her as usual. She just said hello briefly and lowered her head to work. The only hope left in Shu Tian''s eyes darkened. The photos of her and Li Han were sent out, and the impact was much scarier than she had imagined. Her mind was in a mess, and she kept sending messages to Li Han, but there was no response. What the hell was he doing? Unable to calm down, Shu Tian asked Zhang Bikun, but the answer was still useless. "Boss Li was away on a business trip. He didn''t tell me about what he was going to do, so I didn''t know his whereabouts." Shu Tian had been running around like a headless chicken all day, under criticism and attack. She ate alone, looked up the files alone, and met Ye Junting when she went to the copy room. Both of them were stunned. Ye Junting broke the silence first, "What a coincidence." "Well, I''m here to get the printout." Shu Tian walked to the printer and took the documents away. As she brushed past, she nodded slightly as a greeting. When she reached the door, Ye Junting stopped her from behind. "Shu Tian, are you really that kind of rtionship with Boss Li?" Hearing this, Shu Tian paused subconsciously. After hearing his subtle words and tone, she bit her lips slightly and then let go. What should she say? Should she say that it wasn''t what he thought and they were couples? But now that Li Han was not around and she couldn''t contact him, was it appropriate for her to say this unterally? And he suddenly disappeared and she couldn''t find him, so Shu Tian wondered would it have something to do with the report, would he be avoiding the limelight, or would he not want to admit her existence? Shu Tian had every idea now, but she didn''t dare to do anything, even gave a definite answer. After nearly half a minute, she opened her mouth and closed it again. In the end, she only left a simple sentence, "We are not the kind of rtionship you think." Ye Junting looked at her back as she left. His expression was a littleplicated. It was not that kind of'' rtionship, so what kind was it? They couldn''t be couples. A man like Li Han wouldn''t like Shu Tian. Even if he did, he only wanted to have a fling with her. Ye Junting didn''t look down on Shu Tian. It was just incredible because the gap between them was too big. ... After the news exposed, not only Shu Tian was looking for Li Han, but Ji Chuanyi was also looking for him. However, he couldn''t contact Li Han. When he learned that Li Han was on a business trip with Ling Junze, he called Ling Junze, who was also not connected. It happened so suddenly that no one was prepared, but the only man who could be prepared was not around. After careful consideration, Ji Chuanyi came to Shu Tian. In the office, Shu Tian was not in a good mental state, sitting there in a daze. Ji Chuanyi poured her a cup of hot tea and said, "Drink it and have a rest." Shu Tian took it and shook her head, "Boss Ji, I''m fine." In thepany, she still called him Boss Ji. She was scrupulous in separating public from private interests, did not bring trouble to people, and she was so sensible and cute. "So much has happened and we can''t get in touch with Li Han. I know you are in aplicated mood, so I came to you today to talk to you and wonder what you think." "I don''t have any ideas. Everything has to wait for Li Han to decide. After all, this matter is also rted to him." To put it bluntly, Shu Tian still had no confidence in herself, afraid that she would make the man unhappy if she took it upon herself. Besides, it was not fair to him. Ji Chuanyi looked at her eyes with dark circles, "See if this is okay. You can let go of your work first. I''ll suspend you here for the time being. You can take a vacation. You don''t have to be stressed. You can go to work normally when Li Hanes back." Shu Tian frowned, "Boss Ji, I don''t want to be suspended. I didn''t do anything wrong. I have no reason to leave at this time." There was resentment in this resolute refusal. Ji Chuanyi knew that she had lost control of her emotions and determined to oppose these people who were waiting tough at her. Ji Chuanyi couldn''t force her. It was useless to persuade her for her being so extreme. He simply stopped talking, "I''ll contact Li Han again. If there''s anything wrong with work, you can call me anytime." Shu Tian blinked, thanked him, and walked to the door. She put her hand on the doorknob and took it back, repeated for a few times, but she couldn''t help but ask, "Boss Ji, why did Li Han suddenly lose contact?" "I don''t know yet." "Does it have anything to do with me?" Shu Tian tightened her fingers and nervously asked the question in her heart. Ji Chuanyi looked at her obviously stiff body and sighed silently. "Probably not. Don''t think too much." Shu Tian didn''t say anything more and turned to leave. Chapter 89 Chapter 89 Unable to find Li Han, Ji Chuanyi could only ask someone to suppress the news which made Li Han and Shu Tian a trending topic, but that was far from enough. The media wanted to get an urate response. Shu Tian had to be extremely careful to get to and from work for fear of running into reporters. At lunch, she was not in the mood to eat. After eating a mouthful of bread, she took a nap at the table. These two days, she was so tense that she could not sleep well at night. Suddenly, she felt a weight on her shoulders and turned to see Zhang Rui''er. She was holding a coat in her hand and had just draped it over Shu Tian. Seeing that she was awake, a trace of embarrassment shed across Zhang Rui''er''s face. "I see you''re not wearing very much, so..." "Thank you." Speechless for a moment, Zhang Rui''er pulled out the chair next to her and sat down. The people in the office went to eat. She caught a glimpse of half the bread on the table and felt sad. "Shu Tian, I regard you as my friend. So can I ask you, are you and Boss Li really like what the news said?" Shu Tian looked at her eyes, seeing that Zhang Rui''er was not suspecting, not curious, just looking at her worriedly. She lowered her eyes slightly and did not know how to answer. She could only say, "It''s not what you think." Tang Zechen''s report was very well written. It was not easy to find the ws in it. Shu Tian was not even sure how to exin it. "So... Are you really romantically involved with Boss Li?" Shu Tian was silent for a moment and finally responded, "Yes, but he''s not here now. I hope you don''t tell anyone about it." Zhang Rui''er breathed a sigh of relief. Shu Tian''s willingness to tell her about this proved that Shu Tian regarded her as a friend, so her previous efforts were not in vain. Zhang Rui''er patted her on the shoulder and said, "I''m sorry. I was also confused when I heard the news. After all, I really didn''t expect you and Boss Li were lovers. But since you said the truth wasn''t like what the news said, I believe you." Shu Tian suddenly looked up at her. "Rui..." Zhang Rui''er smiled lightly and said, "I believe in your character. No matter what others say, I know you won''t do that." She pointed to the bread on the table and asked, "You just eat this as a lunch?" "Yeah, I don''t have much appetite." "Why? There''s still food in the canteen now. Why don''t you go over and get some food?" As Zhang Rui''er spoke, she got up and wanted to drag Shu Tian to the canteen. Shu Tian really didn''t want to move, so she shook her head and said, "No, I don''t want to. They''ll gossip about me if I go there." Zhang Rui''er paused. Thinking of the attacks and rumors about Shu Tian from some people in the "Let me buy some food for you. You can go to the rooftop to eat." Shu Tian was so moved that she didn''t know what to say. She watched Zhang Rui''er go away and then took out the phone in her pocket again. But there was still no call or text message from him. The man who always appeared next to her at the critical moment disappeared this time. Li Han, where the hell were you? ... That night, Shu Tian received a call from Tang Zechen. He was showing off. "Shu Tian, do you agree to my request? Look, Li Han doesn''t intend to help you now. He hasn''t even made a statement for two days. I advise you to agree to my conditions before things get too serious." Shu Tian was no longer surprised by his shamelessness. At this moment, she was not even angry and said, "Things have be serious, so I''m not afraid to let then even more serious." As if he didn''t expect her to be so firm with him, Tang Zechen paused for a few seconds before clenching his teeth and saying, "Do you still want to wait for Li Han to help you? I tell you, you''re just a loose woman that I abandoned. Which man will cherish you? Li Han didn''t help you probably because he was afraid of being involved. You still expect him to help you. How stupid you are!" Even if Tang Zechen always told lies, Shu Tian still felt as if her heart was pierced when she heard him say that. Just because the name "Li Han" was enough to affect her, not to mention this awkward situation. She had assumed the situation that Tang Zechen said, but she did not want to admit that she might be so stupid to believe that Li Han would not steer her towards controversy and then hide. "Tang Zechen, the morecent you are now, the more difficult situation you will be in. I won''t agree to any of your conditions." Shu Tian''s tone was very calm, "You said I was the loose woman? I''m not. Jiang Mengyao is." Tang Zechen was furious. "You..." Shu Tian hung up the phone and throw it on the bed. Then shey on the bed, curled up and hugged her knees. It got dark, but the lights were not turned on in the room, and her tears gradually fell down her face. ... Li Han, who was far away in the United States, did not know what had happened at home. He followed George and Ling Junze to this isted treatment center. In those years, he didn''t have enough money to go to school. After paying his tuition, he didn''t have money to eat enough. It was difficult for an international student who had just arrived abroad to find a job. He was always discriminated against and ridiculed. It was Jiang Chujing''s parents who supported him so that he couldplete his studies. Li Han wanted to repay Jiang Chujing''s parents when he achieved his sess one day. However, six years ago, her parents had a car ident on the way to his graduation speech and left the world forever. At that time, in the ICU ward, theirst wish was for him to take good care of Chu Jing. Jiang Chujing also suffered from this strange illness because of her parents'' death. Li Han felt guilty and heartbroken. The responsibility and guilt made him unable to refuse any request from Jiang Chujing. He owed so much to the Jiang family that he couldn''t repay it for the rest of his life. After more than two days of intensive treatment, the results were very good. Jiang Chujing''s health index was the best in five years. George even joked, "If the index keeps, I believe she is able to leave the hospital for not too long." Ling Junze was genuinely happy for Li Han, because he knew how much guilt and pressure Li Han had endured over the years. The three of them returned to the sanatorium in New Zend. They didn''t bring their cell phones when they left. Anyway, they had to be quarantined. When they came back, Li Han was tired and went to the bathroom to take a shower. Somehow, Jiang Chujing arrived at his room and heard the sound of water in the bathroom. She saw the blurry figure through the frosted ss, and a blush appeared on her pale face. She had been with him for so many years, but she never told him she loved him. She sat by the bed, smelling the scent he left behind. When she lifted the quilt, she was surprised to see his phone. This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. Jiang Chujing paused, looked at the bathroom again, then quickly took his phone over and turned it on. The screen lit up and followed by constant vibration, indicating that there were 48 missed calls. In addition to the calls from a few his friends she had heard of, there was one from "Hoyden". Hoyden? Jiang Chujing was in a daze for a moment, her eyes fixed on the screen. She had a feeling of uneasiness, and her pale fingers became even paler because of the force. There was a sudden "click"ing from the bathroom door behind her. Jiang Chujing immediately changed her expression, got up and handed him his phone. "You haven''t brought your phone these two days. I''ve turned it on for you. There are a lot of people looking for you." Chapter 90 Chapter 90 She didn''t feel panicked or peculiar at all as if she did nothing but turned on his phone. Li Han frowned imperceptibly and took a look at it. When he found the 20 missed calls from Shu Tian, his expression changed slightly, but he did not call back immediately. Instead, he looked at Jiang Chujing. "What are you here for me?" Jiang Chujing bit her lips and walked up to him. "Han, I want to discuss something with you." "Okay." "As you can see from the check, I am well now. My wound didn''t heal because of the telet. But I am all right now. I want to..." And she paused and looked up at Li Han. "I want to go back." "No." Li Han refused her almost without thinking. "Han, I..." Before she could finish speaking, Li Han interrupted, "Chu Jing, your condition is not stable yet." "But I have been here for five years. When I was young, I stayed in the sanatorium without any friends or family members. I couldn''t talk about myself with anyone. I lived for nothing but taking medicine, injection, and treatment!" Jiang Chujing looked at him quietly and said, "If my parents were still alive, they wouldn''t want to see this..." As soon as she finished speaking, Li Han''s face changed. After hesitating for a long time, he put his hand on her shoulder tofort her. "Chu Jing, I can''t let you take a risk." "But George said I can go back now." Jiang Chujing saw his expression and knew that she failed again. She decided not to force him and grabbed his clothes tightly. "And I want to be with you. I''m so afraid that you''ll leave me forever. I can depend on nobody but you..." Li Han pursed his lips and did not say anything. After all, he held her in his arms. His fingers slid across her dry hair. Once, she had beautiful long hair. He closed his eyes slightly. "I won''t leave you. I promised your parents to take care of you for the rest of your life." Jiang Chujing was annoyed by his words. He mentioned her parents every time, but she didn''t want Li Han to stay with her because of her parents! "Han, am I a burden to you? If I am a burden, I might as well die..." "Chu Jing!" Li Han scolded softly. "What are you talking about? You know I don''t mean it. Don''t say that!" How could he feel no qualms to her dead parents for her words? "You wouldn''t have cared about me without my parents. Han, what am I to you?" Li Han lowered his hands and clenched his fists. He looked into her expectant eyes. In the end, he could not tell the romantic lies. "You are my family. I should take the responsibility for you in my whole life." Jiang Chujing would have jumped up happily without the first use. But he just had to give the premise every time. His family. The family love. That was never what she wanted. Jiang Chujing lowered her eyes to hide the hatred in her eyes. She implicated but never confessed her affection for him for the five years. She was afraid that their rtionship would end with her words. But she could not stand it anymore. Thinking of the ''Hoyden'' on his phone, she felt that what she worried about day and night would finally happen. After a few seconds of silence, Jiang Chujing looked up again. She appeared to be weak. "Han, I never thought of you as a family member. You are always the most special man for me. Can''t you feel my love?" Jiang Chujing confessed with one sentence and she couldn''t change it. Li Han was surprised. He looked at her expectant eyes and didn''t speak. His emotion wasplicated and even Jiang Chujing, who had been with him for so many years, could not understand. The only thing she knew was that he was unpleasant. Yes, he was unhappy with her confession, which almost made Jiang Chujing unable to disguise herself. After enduring it, she took a step back. She seemingly gave in, but actually she took retreat as progress. "Han, I know it is because of my illness, but I never regret liking you or even falling in love with you. We''ve been friends for so many years. From the time you first arrived in the United States, I''ve never treated you as my brother. Perhaps you are family for my parents. But you are a man for me." Li Han listened to her and knew that he had to interrupt her. He was about to speak when she interrupted him. "You don''t have to indulge me because of the effect of my excitement on my body. I''d rather get worse than being given a perfunctory answer." Li Han was to refuse her but was stopped by her words. Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. He frowned and thought of what George had told him before- "Don''t let her suffer too much emotional change. It is harmful to her body." Jiang Chujing saw that he was silent again. She secretly heaved a sigh of relief and pretended to be weak, shaking her body. Li Han stepped forward to hold her and asked anxiously, "What''s wrong?" Jiang Chujing barely struggled and choked, "I''m fine." Seeing her like this, Li Han felt bad too. Ling Junze once said that he should directly refuse or ept her. Since he didn''t like her, it would hurt her if he didn''t tell her clearly. Now, Ling Junze was right. He had to face the problem after so many years. But could he refuse her now? He didn''t dare to think about how Jiang Chujing would be hurt if she was refused. He was afraid that her body, which was better now, would get worse again. After thinking for a while, Li Han chose thest option. He looked at her thin figure on the bed and took a deep breath. "Chu Jing, I promise you that as long as you get well, I will take you back." He still didn''t respond to her confession, but it was good for Jiang Chujing to return. As long as she could go back, she could repel all women with Li Han''s guilt for her parents and care for her. Jiang Chujing turned her back to him. She was pride but her voice was still trembling. "Really?" Li Han gritted his teeth. "Yes." She smiled and couldn''t help butugh. "I will definitely ept the treatment and try to get better to stay with you as soon as possible." ... Jiang Chujing rested in the room, and Li Han did not stay there too long. He turned around with his phone and entered a public office. George went out for work, leaving Ling Junze alone. He was reading a stack of documents when he saw Li Han. He nced up slightly. "Why don''t you go to bed?" Li Han didn''t say anything about Jiang Chujing. Instead, he asked, "You don''t sleep either." They looked at each other, curled up their lower lips and looked away. "Did you contact Shu Tian?" Ling Junze asked. Li Han was stunned. "What?" Ling Junze put down the documents in his hand. "Haven''t you contacted her yet? Ji Chuanyi called me just now and said that Shu Tian was almost going crazy because she couldn''t contact you." Chapter 91 Chapter 91 Before Li Han could think about it, the phone in his hand vibrated. He looked down and found that Ji Chuanyi called him. He picked it up, and Ji Chuanyi''s voice on the other end of the microphone sounded unusually anxious, "Where are you? I called you 800 times, but no one answered. I thought you were dissected by Ling Junze! Do you know anything big happened in the country?" Having been with Ji Chuanyi for so many years, Li Han had never heard him so anxious before. Li Han realized the seriousness of the matter, but his tone still sounded steady, "What''s the matter?" "You and Shu Tian were photographed at the airport. As soon as you left, you were headlined in the newspaper. The news on the mobile entertainment page was all about you two. Now there''s a truck of people blocking you and Shu Tian under thepany. I can''t find you, and I don''t know how to exin. When I ask Shu Tian, she can''t make up her mind. She is going crazy." Ji Chuanyi''s voice sounded intermittently in Li Han''s ear, but his mind was filled with the Shu Tian. Even before he read the news, he knew how helpless she was. When she needed him the most, he was not there! N?velDrama.Org holds this content. His heart seemed to be tightly gripped by an invisible hand. He felt painful and stuffy. Even his breathing was oppressed infinitely. Thinking of what she was going through, Li Han felt regretful for the first time. If he knew that Tang Zechen had such a move, he would not let her be alone! Thinking of Tang Zechen, Li Han''s eyes shed with bloodthirsty ferocity, "I see. I''ll be right back." After that, Li Han wanted to hang up and was stopped by Ji Chuanyi, "It will take you more than ten hours to fly. Tell me how to respond first. I''ll ask thepany to issue a statement." "How to respond? Tell them the truth." Li Han''s tone was horrible, and his face turned even gloomier, "Tell them that Shu Tian is my woman. I''ll make things difficult for whomever bring trouble to her ." Ling Junze had been reading the documents. When he heard that, he couldn''t help but look at Li Han. He raised his eyebrows and shook his head with a smile. It was hard to say good or not good to have a man like Li Han, who wanted to fight the world for you when he was domineering. Ling Junze didn''t know if that little girl could handle it. "Where is she?" "I don''t know. She didn''te to work today. I think it''s also someone is blocking your house." "Got it." Li Han hung up Ji Chuanyi''s phone and immediately called Shu Tian. On the other end of the phone, he did not hear the sweet and soft voice, leaving only the cold female voice. "Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is off..." Li Han''s face froze in an instant, and he exuded a terrifying cold aura. She didn''t answer the phone and couldn''t be found. And he had nothing to do in America. "Damn it!" Seeing that he was in a hurry to kill someone, Ling Junze stood up and said, "What happened?" Li Han didn''t borate. He just said, "I''ll get someone to prepare a private ne and go back to China immediately." Ling Junze blinked as he watched the man walk out of the office as fast as he could. Shu Tian was probably the only one who could make Li Han so anxious. What happened to that little girl? He connected to the phone''s web page and jumped out of the hottest news of the day without typing Shu Tian''s name. There were all about her, and thosements were quite harsh. The smile on Ling Junze''s face dissipated. He had a premonition that when Li Han returned home, Tang Zechen''s family might go home to bury his body. After Ji Chuanyi contacted Li Han, he immediately asked Zhang Bikun to locate Shu Tian. Her location was in Imperial Garden, so he was relieved to know that she was at home. Ji Chuanyi asked thepany''s public rtions department to issue an announcement, carefully worded. After all, a lot of decisivements still had to wait for Li Han toe back. After such a long silence, they finally spoke. The attention to them was once again in a mor. Not only was the divorce case so eye-catching, but Li Han''s existence was too influential. It was difficult for many people to find out anything about this man. If such a good cut was made, everyone wanted to find out something. Shu Tian didn''t go to thepany, nor was she in Imperial Garden. She left the ne at home and drove a ck Mercedes-Benz car from the garage to theke in the suburbs. There was a naturalke here. When she was a child, she often came with Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua. Shu Changlei had liked fishing very much. She vaguely remembered that he said fishing could calm people down and focus on one thing. Shu Tian felt that what she needed most at this moment was peace. After renting fishing rods and some professional equipment from the boss, Shu Tian sat on a chair by theke. Although the wind was already cold, it was still okay to wear a hat and mask. She sat until evening. Many people came to fish during the day and left one after another. More and more people fished at night. Shu Tian wanted to go back early, but just as she was about to put up the fishing rod, the fishing line started to move. It became faster and heavier. She immediately reeled in and quickly turned the handle. When the fishing rod came up, she was disappointed. It turned out to be a lump of algae at the bottom of theke. She had met this situation when she had fished with Shu Changlei countless times, but today she was particrly ufortable. She was full of expectations, but nothing resulted, which reminded her of her marriage with Tang Zechen and her rtionship with Li Han. Where the hell did he go? From the beginning, she kept thinking about it, but now she didn''t dare to think about it. Shu Tian really panicked. She put down the fishing rod and squatted on the ground, sobbing. The night wind swept across the face again, and her whole face tensed up. For so many days, she had not cried, but now she could not bear it. Tears flowed freely as if they were uncontroble, falling into the hair at her temples, into the cor, and into the dirt under her feet. The wind grew stronger and rustled through the branches and leaves behind her. There seemed to be something else mixed in the sound. Shu Tian did not care at all. She suppressed her cries, but it was still so obvious by theke in the suburbs. Suddenly, a huge force pressed against her back. She lost her bnce and fell to the ground. She wanted to scream but was tightly covered by a hand. "Uh!" Shu Tian was shocked. There was a man on her back with long hands and feet. He was obviously a strong man. "Don''t make a sound!" The man''s deep voice was a little weak, and he pressed something against her waist as he spoke. Shu Tian could still feel the round, hard shape through her coat. Her head was spinning so fast that she suddenly thought of something that made her face pale and bloodless. It was a gun! In a peaceful era, in a country where guns were banned, he actually had a gun! Shu Tian widened her eyes and immediately shut down all the voices. The atmosphere was so tense that she even breathed carefully. It was then that she smelled the obvious smell of blood in the air. He was bleeding at an extremely fast rate. Not far away, suddenly came the sound of messy footsteps, and a blinding light swept over their heads. The man cursed and dragged her body into theke. Chapter 92 Chapter 92 He moved really fast and with such restraint that he did not make much noise. The ice-cold water of theke soon soaked through their clothes. Shu Tian could not swim, and she was afraid of the pistol at his waist and did not dare to move. She was held by the man in his arms passively and was so stiff. "See if there''s anyone over there!"A fierce voice sounded near them, and the man was standing beside them, very close. Shu Tian roughly knew that he was hiding from these people, and a group of men who chased a man with a gun were certainly not good people, so she did not choose to call for help. The rustling sound was especially terrifying in the dark night. Half a minuteter, another man said, "Brother Hua, he''s not here!" "Damn it! I can''t believe he got away. You guys split up to chase after him. I''m gonna keep moving forward. I want him alive, you hear me?" "Yes, sir!" "Yes, sir!" A group of people walked past them, and then they got further away. Shu Tian breathed a sigh of relief and slightly struggled, but was held harder and more forcefully, "Don''t move, or I''ll kill you." Shu Tian opened her mouth and bit his palm. It was obvious that the man''s body froze for a second, but he did not let go of his hand. He just pushed the pistol against her forward again. Not knowing how long had passed, Shu Tian was trembling all over herself with theke water. Just as she thought she was going to die here, the man behind her finally dragged her ashore. Since her mouth was no longer covered by the man, Shu Tian took a few breaths desperately. She regained her senses and stood up with hands and feet quickly to run. There was a light click sound, and a small spark exploded at her feet. "Ah!" Shu Tian immediately stopped and squatted down with her hands holding her head, "Don''t, don''t shoot. I didn''t mean to hurt you!" Her trembling voice came, and he could feel her helplessness without looking at her face. Meng Shichuan''s finger on the trigger paused. His dark eyes fell on her weak figure. After looking at her for a moment, he said, "Come here." Shu Tian''s heart was beating so fast that she was physically ufortable. She felt dizzy and even This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. nauseous. After climbing out of theke for a few minutes, she actually was in a cold sweat from fear. It was so scary that her hair was about to stand up and that she didn''t even have time to be afraid. When she was scared to the extreme, she calmed down instead. Shu Tian put her hands on both sides of her head and slowly turned around in surrender. She saw an extremely pale but handsome face. His face was distinctly outlined, and his short hair gave her a ferocious feeling, especially the delicate but powerful pistol in his hand. The ck gun was pointed at her head. Shu Tian had no doubt that if she ran away, he would shoot at once. She had no choice but to walk over. The closer she got, the more she could smell his blood. "Help me to the cabin in the back." The man gestured to her, and the pistol was changed to another position to point at her. Shu Tian didn''t dare to speak. She obediently did as he said and struggled to lift him up. The man was nearly 1.9 meters tall, looking not strong, but it was really hard to help him walk. When they finally walked to the cabin and Shu Tian was trying to figure out how to unlock the door, the man shot directly at the keyhole without saying a word. The gun with a silencer didn''t make much noise, but Shu Tian was scared to death. It was a very old house for tourists to rest in by theke, with only one simple recliner in it. Shu Tian helped him up andy down. Looking at his painful face, she whispered, "Can I leave now?" Meng Shichuan stared at the woman in front of him for a moment. Her palm-sized face was pale, and she looked frightened. Her long ck hair wet from the water and stuck to her cheeks and shoulders. She was petite, only up to his chin. Her skin was very delicate, and her eyes were filled with tears, looking not aggressive at all. His fingers, which were holding the pistol, moved slightly, "Help me to undress." Shu Tian was stunned, "Wha... What?" Meng Shichuan frowned impatiently, "Can''t you understand my words?" Shu Tian''s hands by her side tightened and she said nothing with a stern face. After the eerie silence, she stood still, "Why should I help you undress?" Meng Shichuan snorted, "To have sex?" Shu Tian stared at him defensively with wide eyes. How could he talk like that... She was furious and gritted her teeth, "Do you have the potency to do it now?" Meng Shichuan nced at her palm-sized face and was not angry anyway. He pointed at her with the pistol, "Thene here now and help me undress." Seeing that she was still hesitating, he ran out of patience, "I''m gonna count to three. If you don''te here, I''ll shoot you." "One, two..." Before thest word came out, the woman standing there finally took a small step. In order to be alive, she would tolerate it. In just a few short steps, Shu Tian felt as if she was walking towards death. The closer she got, the more she smelled of blood on his body. There was a dark hole in the left side of his abdomen, and dark red blood wasing out. It soaked through his shirt, leaving a dark brown stain. Shu Tian reached out to him, her small hands trembling uncontrobly. As she touched the warm and wet blood, she couldn''t help but tremble. The man snorted before she could do anything. With a thud and a sharp pain in her forehead, the pistol in the man''s hand was pressed against her and he said with an absolute threat, "Did you do it on purpose?!" Shu Tian didn''t even dare to move her head, and her neck was as stiff as wood, seeing more blood oozing out of the dark wound. It was because she couldn''t help but tremble just now... "I''m sorry, I didn''t do it on purpose." When she spoke again, she was almost about to cry. Meng Shichuan held back the pain and pinched her cheeks. The blood on his hands stained her fair and tender face, which had a strong contrast and a sense of taboo beauty. Meng Shichuan nced at her lips, which had turned pale from fear, "Hurry up." Shu Tian nodded hurriedly, afraid that he would shoot her in the head the next second. Unbuttoning his shirt, he had a bullet in his abdomen, the end of which was barely visible, and the entire body of the bullet was in the flesh. Shu Tian held back the difort in her stomach, tore the clothes apart and wrapped them around his wound ording to his instructions to slow down the blood flow. After all of it, Shu Tian was forced to squat in a corner with her hands holding the head and he still pointed the pistol at her. She asked, "Who the hell are you?" Meng Shichuan raised his eyebrows, "Are you curious?" "No." She bit her lip gently and then loosened it, lowing her eyes, "I''m just afraid that I had saved an ouw." "Heh." The man chuckled and turned his neck. It was obvious that he was weak now from his voice, but it did not cover up his danger at all, "Do you know that what you said may anger an ouw?" Somehow, Shu Tian suddenly didn''t feel as frightened as before. She could vaguely feel that this man did not want to kill her so much. Besides the urge to be alive, she was also afraid that she would fall into trouble for saving him. He was an unidentified man with a gunshot wound on his body. Even if he was shot in the abdomen, he could still take her into theke. He was definitely not a good person. "Are you Chinese?" Shu Tian asked again, "I mean, Chinese nationality." Chapter 93 Chapter 93 At the moment their eyes met, she did not dodge. The panic in her eyes calmed down a little and she looked at the man on the recliner not far away. Meng Shichuan raised his eyebrows in surprise. Even if he was bleeding, there was a bloodthirsty smile on his lips. "No." Shu Tian heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, in some countries, carrying guns wasn''t against thew. After asking this question, she stopped talking. The more she knew, the more dangerous she would be. She just wanted to leave here alive. As time passed, Shu Tian squatted for such a long time that both her legs were numb and unconscious. Just as she staggered and was about to copse, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the cabin. She subconsciously looked up. Before she could see who it was, someone threw an oval smoke bomb through the window. Squeaks sounded in the wooden house. In an instant, white smoke filled the whole room and nothing could be seen. Shu Tian covered her nose and mouth as she retreated to the corner. She groped her way along the wall towards the door. Finally, she touched the doorknob. She pushed the door open without hesitation and ran out, but stopped at the moment she turned around. That man... Standing there, thinking for a long time, she finally decided that she could not just leave him to die. When she turned around and ran back into the house, the person on the recliner was no longer there, leaving only a silvery ring. There was a sign of fire on it, just like that man, mysterious and dazzling. Shu Tian had no time to think about it and ran out with the ring. Just a few stepster, someone suddenly grabbed her neck. "Ah..." "Don''t shout." Meng Shichuan was holding the pistol in his hand, but this time it was safety off. "Since you went in to find me, I might as well return you with a big gift. This time you saved my life. I, Meng Shichuan, will definitely return something to you in the future. With this ring, you always find me whenever you need." Hearing his voice, Shu Tian reflexively wanted to turn back, but was stopped by his gun. "Don''t turn back!" She immediately stood still. The muzzle on her was moved away. After about half a minute, Shu Tian asked tentatively, "Can I go now?" There was still no answer behind her. She asked again, but there was still silence. Shu Tian realized something and turned around. Sure enough, there was nothing behind her. The man who had threatened her just now was gone. Shu Tian looked at the ring in her hand. There was no warmth in the cold ring, just like the man. She put the ring through her index finger a little bit to hold it steady, but she felt an uneven line in the ring. Observed closer, it was a row of Arabic numbers, which should be a phone number. Shu Tian was slightly taken aback. It turned out that he had left his ring for this purpose. Was it because she came out of the house and went in to look for him? Shu Tian felt that this man was too dangerous. She raised her hand, and she was about to throw the ring away, but the moment she took it off, she withdrew. Forgot it, she should take it with her. It might be more dangerous if someone else picked it up. ... After leaving the cabin, Shu Tian took off her coat and put it in her bag. She found a small hotel nearby and stayed there. The price was cheap, but the equipment was not good. The air was full of moisture in the room, which had a musty smell. After changing her clothes, washing and drying them, Shu Tian took a quick shower but couldn''t sleep because of the man tonight. She turned on her phone again and wanted to distract herself. Before she could switch on the flight mode and turn on the game, Zhang Bikun''s call had alreadye in. She hesitated for a few seconds and answered, "Hello?" "Miss Shu?" Zhang Bikun asked uncertainly. "It''s me." "It''s really you! Miss Shu, you finally answered the phone. Where are you now? Boss Li keeps looking for you! He almost got crazy!" Zhang Bikun''s extremely excited and anxious voice came. Shu Tian was stunned. "Li Han?" "Yes, Boss Li came back today, and he came to you as soon as he got off the ne. But you were not at home, and you didn''t answer the phone. If you don''t answer the phone tonight, Boss Li might turn City J upside down!" Zhang Bikun was helpless. Boss Li couldn''t find Miss Shu, and asked him to keep calling her 24 hours a day. He had been calling her hundreds of times, and his fingers hurt... Shu Tian didn''t expect Li Han toe back suddenly, and she was more surprised to hear that he was looking for her. She couldn''t keep up with Zhang Bikun. "Isn''t he on a business trip in America?" "He came back early." Zhang Bikun was extremely anxious. "Miss Shu, where are you now?" Shu Tian looked around and took the card from the hotel table. There had the exact location of this ce. She told Zhang Bikun the address, "I''m here." "Okay, please don''t hang up. I''ll tell Boss Li." A few minutester, Zhang Bikun picked up the phone again, "Miss Shu, Boss Li is on his way. He''s probably going to call you. I''ll hang up first." Shu Tian looked at her phone and was still in a trance. Why... Why did he suddenlye back? Less than half a minuteter, Li Han''s call came in. She picked it up and before she could speak, she heard the familiar and cold voice of the man. "Did you forget what I said?" The scolding made Shu Tian''s already tense nerve suddenly break. She was so aggrieved that she could not make a sound, afraid that she would cry when she opened her mouth. He was the one who suddenly disappeared and went to America, and he was the one who broke off contact first. Now that he returned home quietly, he med her since he couldn''t find her. Shu Tian was angry and sad. She was unable to speak for a moment and did not know what to say. On the other side, unable to hear the voice which he missed day and night, Li Han frowned slightly. "Shu Tian?" She sniffed, not wanting him to notice anything unusual about her, but when she opened her mouth, she couldn''t hold back anymore, "I..." After just one word, Shu Tian couldn''t continue. She held the phone tightly and her knuckles turned white. It took her a long time to find her voice again. "I almost couldn''t see you again." Li Han''s heart jerked. "What happened?" Shu Tian hesitated for a moment and still didn''t tell him what had just happened. She didn''t know what he would do, and she was afraid that he would get into trouble because of her. She shook her head and didn''t notice that he couldn''t see her at all. "No, I thought you didn''t care about me..." The woman''s low and trembling voice came from the phone. Li Han felt as if his heart had been cut by a de. He wished he could show up next to her right now. "Are... Are you crying?" She didn''t say anything. The silence was the best answer. Li Han had never regretted something so much since he was born. His heart tightened. "Don''t cry. I''ll be right there." As soon as she cried, he was totally unsettled, and he wasn''t able to be angry about her anymore. It should have taken him an hour to the hotel. Li Han ignored the danger and asked the driver to speed up to the most. He arrived in half an hour and found the hotel ording to Zhang Bikun''s words. The hotel looked like a small hotel in the countryside, with only a shing red and green sign. The bodyguards could not help but change their expressions, but Li Han, such a clean freak, seemed to feel nothing and kept walking in, not dying any second. The crowd was huge. The hotel owner was still dozing off but upon seeing them, he stood up in shock. "Hello, who are you..." "Come and find someone." His words were full of vigor and oppression. The boss did not dare to stop him. Shivering, he brought him in and handed over the key without saying a word. Finding the room where Shu Tian was, Li Han left the bodyguards outside and pushed the door open. The door of the room was opened, and Shu Tian watched as the slender figure stepped into the room. Standing in the low room on the ceiling, he was like an elite rich man who had identally entered the Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! slum, who was out of ce. He walked straight towards Shu Tian. He was wearing a dark suit and starched trousers, which made him outstanding. His expensive handmade leather shoes fell on the cheap stall and he walked towards her. Li Han looked at the little woman, who was with trembling shoulders, red eyes, and tears in her eyes. He reached out and pulled her into her arms. "Don''t cry." Chapter 94 Chapter 94 Shu Tian smelled the familiar smell. The quiet pine wood fragrance was apanied by his unique hormonal scent, which made her feel at ease, and even the coldness in her body was expelled. Shu Tian wanted to push him away, to question why he had only appeared now, why he hadn''t been contacted and why he had disappeared, but when she met this man, she couldn''t say a word but buried herself in his arms and cried out. Her emotions which had been suppressed for a few days finally found an exit, and all of them rushed out in her tears. The shirt on Li Han''s chest was soon wet, and warm liquid soaked his skin and burned to the bottom of his heart, burning every corner of his heart. Shu Tian cried for a long time until her eyes hurt a little before she could calm down. She pushed her hands slightly away from the man''s strong chest and looked up at the familiar face. "Why do you suddenlye back?" Li Han did not say a word. He looked around at the surroundings which could be summed up in three words "dirty, disorderly, bad". He frowned and grabbed her cold little hand. "Get in the car first." Shu Tian was reluctant. He just asked her to leave without any exnation when he came back. However, it was indeed not convenient to talk here. Shu Tian got into the car and sat in the passenger seat. She unconsciously looked at the powerful man beside her. She did not say anything, but her intense heartbeat tormented her. Her hands on her legs gradually tightened. She looked away and her gaze casuallynded in front of her. In fact, she did not see anything. She was waiting for him to exin and answer. Li Han was not in a hurry to drive. Instead, he took a box of cigarettes from the table on the dashboard, took out one with his long fingers, and slightly tilted his head to light it. However, he was also charming when he smoked. He took care of her, so he opened the windows on both sides of the car to expel the smell of smoke. After a long silence, he finally opened his mouth and said in a clear voice, "Fasten your seat belt." Shu Tian blinked, then lowered her eyes and did not do that. She felt his sharp eyes looking at her and his pressure came rushing towards her, making her sit a little stiff. The atmosphere in the car froze in an instant, and the overwhelming grievance swept towards her again. Her throat was soon sore. She closed her eyes and moved her right hand slightly to open the door beside her. The strong and pleasant smell of him on her side suddenly overwhelmed her. As her hand touched the door handle of the car, the man''s rough palm fell from the back of her hand. Shu Tian had to look up at him. They were so close that their breathing intertwined. Looking at his handsome and distinctly outlined face, her lips moved. Just as she was about to say something, the man''s big hand suddenly grabbed her wrist and he kissed her slightly open lips. Shu Tian''s mind went nk, and she subconsciously dodged back. The man in front of her moved faster. His other hand wrapped around her waist and held her firmly through the sweater. There was something wrong with their love, but her body was very familiar with his touch. His kiss was intense, and the sound of their lips and tongue intertwining echoed in her ears. Shu Tian wanted to refuse, but her hands were disobedient and pressed against his chest to clench his shirt. The smell of his body filled her nostrils. The intensely hot between their lips made her tremble slightly. The sense of unevenness between her body and her mind tormented her, making Shu Tian''s eyes watery. The man rubbed his hands on her waist and quickly let go of her. He also panted unsteadily and pressed his forehead against her. "You want to run away when you see me, huh?" Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat. She held back the tears in her eyes and said toughly. "Why on earth did youe to me?" She didn''t want to go back with him so inexplicably. It was not easy for her topromise once her stomach was in knots. Li Han knew what she cared about. He wanted to go back first and exin to her, but he didn''t expect her to be so stubborn. He couldn''t help but give in. "Why did Ie to you?" He repeated in a ruthless tone, holding her face in his big hands to show her hisposure and seriousness. "Because I only heard about the news before I came here, because I couldn''t contact you the first time I got off the ne, and because I didn''t see you instead of a cold anklet when I got home." Shu Tian pressed her lips hard to control herself from making a strange sound. Suddenly, she was pulled into his arms. The man''s palm pressed her head against his chest. "Because I''m worried about you and I miss you, because I want to hold you like this." Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat when she heard his clear words, gradually echoing his heartbeat. His heartbeat was so strong and powerful that it shocked every inch of her. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! "Then why didn''t you answer the phone? Why did you disappear?" Li Han frowned at the thought of what had happened in the United States. After thinking for a moment, he still couldn''t tell her the truth. "Because of the closed meeting, no one can contact the outside world. It''s aboutpany secrets." It turned out to be like this... The little knot that had always existed in her heart was untied. She was really spineless. She had vowed in her heart not to pay attention to him easily, but after he had only said a few words, she could not help but want to forgive him. In front of love, she had always been so small, and as long as he was willing to give her a little response, she could take the whole world to hug him. Tears from the corners of her eyes gradually gathered and slid down her fair face, finally sinking into the cor under her chin. She cried so beautifully, so delicately that Li Han was heartbroken whether he looked at her. His thumb brushed her tears and he said, "If I knew what happened here, I wouldn''t leave you alone. I shouldn''t have let you bear all this alone." Was he apologizing? Shu Tian''s eyes were red with tears, and her voice was trembling so much that she could hardly speak a word. She said intermittently, "So, don''t let, let me be unable to find you again in the future, okay?" She was really scared. She was afraid that everything was an illusion that she had imagined. She was afraid that she would give everything but return to her original state like thest rtionship. When Li Han saw that after he had finished exining, the little woman in his arms was not happy but cried even harder, he frowned, and his impatient tone was filled with love and anxiety. "Why are you still crying?" "I''m not crying..." Shu Tian deceived herself as well as him and raised her hand to wipe the tears off her face. "The tears were so disobedient that they had to flow out..." "If you cry again, I''ll kiss you." Shu Tian''s face turned red. She looked away from him and covered her face with her two small hands, afraid that he would really kiss her again. She wanted to be close to him, but she was afraid that he would do excessive things regardless of the asion and they are still in the car... After a few days of separation, they both had a desire, and a look could trigger a spark. Li Han lit another cigarette. "What do you mean you almost didn''t see me?" Shu Tian was stunned by his question and took a few seconds to remember what she said on the phone. She didn''t expect him to remember. When Meng Shichuan''s face shed through her mind, she lowered her eyelids to cover the panic in her eyes. "No, I just said it seriously on purpose to make you feel sad..." This reason was not so unbelievable. Li Han did not ask further. Even he did not expect such a strange thing to happen. He unlocked the car''s central locking and turned to signal Shu Tian, "Go to the back seat." Before she could refuse, he had already got out of the car. The driver outside immediately came over and took his ce in the driver''s seat. Shu Tian turned around and looked at the spacious back seat. Her face was so red that she knew what he meant. She gritted her teeth, got out of the car, and got in. Chapter 95 Chapter 95 Along the way, Shu Tian was carried by him, and they finally got home. The driver got out of the car perceptively and left. Li Han put down the soundproof panel in the middle of the car and became more unscrupulous. Shu Tian''s body was so soft, but she was still sensible. She raised her hands and pressed his big hand while he was touching her under her clothes, "Enter the house, enter the house..." Li Han knew that she was shy. Caring about her feelings, he took her out of the car and walked quickly towards the vi. He carried her all the way to the second floor, and the man''s deep and hoarse voice rang in her ears, "Open the door." Only then did Shu Tian remove her head from his arms. He held her in his arms, so he couldn''t open the door by himself. He had to count on her. She reached out an arm and opened the door. Without hesitation, Li Han kicked the door and walked in, closing the door with his foot. Shu Tiany on the soft bed and looked around at the familiar decor. She rxedpletely and stretched her bodyfortably, which made her abdomen feel warm... She suddenly froze when the man pressed down on her. His hard chest pressed against her. Shu Tian thought of something and looked a little embarrassed, "I, I seem to have..." He didn''t understand, "What?" Shu Tian bit her lips and spat out two words awkwardly, "My period." As she spoke, the rising temperature in the bedroom suddenly cooled down. There was something strange in Li Han''s eyes. The next second, he turned over in pain andy on the bed side by side with her. His long arms were slightly bent on his forehead, and his chest heaved violently. Shu Tian was too embarrassed to face him, so she got up hurriedly and slipped into the bathroom. With a "bang", the bathroom door was closed. Li Han frowned fiercely. His desire was not alleviated, so he was filled with a sense of anger. A few minutester, the bathroom door was opened again. Shu Tian poked her head and called out pitifully to the man lying on the bed, "Li Han..." The man''s sharp gaze swept over her, and he clenched his teeth, "Say it!" Shu Tian shrank her neck and was frightened by him, but she still whispered nervously, "Well, I''ve run out of my sanitary pads. Can you help me buy some..." God. She felt it was so embarrassing to discuss sanitary pads with Li Han, the man she loved. It was also the first time in his life that Li Han had been made such a request by a woman. His face immediately darkened, and he looked at her coldly. Shu Tian almost wanted to cry, and she didn''t even dare to look at his expression. She sped the door helplessly, "Please, please..." The windows in the bedroom and the balcony door stayed closed, but Shu Tian felt a gust of cold wind blowing past her. After a while, seeing that he was still motionless, Shu Tian stepped backward behind the door, "Maybe I should go by myself..." Unexpectedly, hearing this, Li Han sat up in bed and walked to her in two steps with his long legs, "How will you go there?" Shu Tian froze. She opened her mouth but was interrupted by him before she could speak, "Spill your blood on Chang''an Avenue?" "..." What kind of metaphor was this? Wouldn''t she feel embarrassed about it? Shu Tian turned around in anger and was about to leave. He grabbed her arm and she looked up, "Please don''t stop me from spilling my blood on Chang''an Avenue." Li Han red at her, "Which kind do you want?" "Ah?" "Which kind do you want?" Shu Tian realized it, "I thought you weren''t going." "One more word and you can go by yourself." Shu Tian was silent for a few seconds before she said feebly, "One for daytime and one for the night." "Wait at home." After that, he took his coat, wallet, and car key and then left the house. Less than half a minuteter, there was the sound of the car engine whistling away in the vi yard. Shu Tian fell on the bed with her hands on her cheeks, feeling the increasing heat. In just a few hours, it was as if she had walked in the heaven and hell back and forth a few times. He didn''t leave her alone. Instead, he was so remorseful and regretful after he knew about everything that had happened in the country. She knew it. It was as if a little bird was fluttering its wings and its wings brushed past her heart, which caused her heart to throb. Li Han drove to a 24-hour convenience store nearby. The store was small but with bright light and the shelves were neatly lined with all kinds of products. He took a deep breath and walked in. "Hello, sir. May I help you?" The shop assistant warmly weed him. Li Han looked tense. He wanted to ask where the thing Shu Tian wanted was ced, but instead, he said, "It''s all right. Just take a look." Just took a look? The smile on the shop assistant''s face froze for a moment, but she quickly returned to normal and N?velDrama.Org holds this content. returned to the front cashier without further interruptions. Without anyone else around, Li Han secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He never felt nervous even when facing many high-ranking people in meetings or thousands of people in the speech. But now he was nervous because of this purchase. If Ling Junze and Pei Yu found it out, they would probablyugh at him for a year. After walking around the convenience store and finding the shelf in the corner with "Female Products" written on it, he finally found the small packs of various and colorful things. Li Han took two packs and wanted to leave as quickly as he could. Thinking of Shu Tian''s words, he had to look at them carefully. But he only saw some numbers on them, but couldn''t find any words like "daytime" or "night". An unnatural look shed across the man''s face. He took out his phone and called her. The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up. The little woman''s voice was confused, "Hello?" "How can I tell whether they are for daytime or night?" The man''s clear voice reached her ears. Shu Tian was stunned for a second and then sobered up, "There''s something written in the upper left corner. Do you see it?" Li Han did as she said and found there was indeed a mark in the upper left corner. He didn''t notice it just now... The man only felt that his face had been lost today. After hanging up the phone, he took a few of them to the cashier to pay the bill. The shop assistant who had offered to help warmly just now saw the man walking over with a few packs of sanitary pads in his hands. Her expression changed slightly, but she still packed the things professionally, "A total of 128 yuan." Li Han handed out two hundred-yuan bills. The clerk was about to give him the change, but he had walked straight out of the convenience store. Chapter 96 Chapter 96 "Hey, sir, your change..." The shop assistant chased after him, but there was only a trail of car exhaust left. A Bentley Bentayga sped up and quickly disappeared from sight. The shop assistant looked at the 72 yuan change in her hand, and her heart beat uncontrobly. The man, whose clothes were umon, drove a luxury car and even looked so perfect. But he actually went out to buy sanitary napkins in the middle of the night. It was hard to imagine what kind of woman could make such a perfect man willing to do this. ... Li Han drove all the way back to Imperial Garden. Shu Tian didn''t dare to lie down or sit down. When he came back, she stood in the living room. When she saw the ck stic bag in his hand, she grabbed it and went straight to the bathroom. Five minutester, she washed her hands and came out of the bathroom. She felt that the world was bright. However, she didn''t feltfortable for too long. She couldn''t get out of bed because of the colic in her abdomen. Her body had been with a little cold property since she was a child. On the first day of her physiological period, she always felt pain. When the pain was sharp, she would even feel dizzy and nauseous. Li Han came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. He couldn''t rest well the past few days when he stayed abroad. Today, in order to find her, he had no time to get over the jetg. So he wanted to take a good sleep with her delicate body in his arms. But when he lifted the quilt, he saw Shu Tian arching her body slightly and being very ufortable. Li Han didn''t know about women''s problems in this respect. He asked her but she didn''t say anything. So he called Ling Junze in a hurry. "Shu Tian''s abdomen aches because she is in her physiological period. Is there any way to relieve it?" A doctor who had just finished an operation, feeling dizzy and hungry. After hearing Li Han show affection, he blew up finally, "I''m a surgeon, not a gynecologist. Menstrual cramps are normal. As long as she is not nauseous or dizzy, she is fine!" Li Han considered Ling Junze to be menopausal and ignored his screams. "I asked you how to relieve it." Ling Junze angrily took off the surgical mask and threw it into the trash can. In consideration of professional ethics, he said, "Taking painkillers is effective, but every medicine has its side effect. Or you can let her drink some brown sugar and ginger water, which can warm her uterus and will work to some extent." "Should I cook brown sugar and ginger water together?" Li Han had a headache and asked for the details because he had never cooked it before. "Yes." The corner of Ling Junze''s mouth twitched. "I say, Old Li, you''re too fussy. Dysmenorrhea is not a big deal. But you actually call me to seek advice. Don''t you pamper her excessively?" "I like to pamper my woman. Do you have a problem with that?" After that, he hung up the phone before Ling Junze could speak. Ling Junze put the phone back in his pocket, not knowing whether tough or cry. "Can''t I say that?" Tian Sangsang came out of the operating room and happened to hear this sentence. She looked at her director and mentor in confusion and happened to meet Ling Junze''s eyes. She couldn''t pretend that she didn''t hear it. "Director Ling, what''s wrong with you?" "Oh, it''s okay." Ling Junze answered casually and added after finding out that it was Tian Sangsang. "There is someone like you who always make me feel worried and angry. I am upset." "..." Tian Sangsang was innocent. Why was she involved? "Why are you still standing here? Go to my office and tidy my things." Ling Junze waved his hand, showing an air of leadership. Tian Sangsang felt unhappy. She had just stood in front of the operating table for three hours and was about to be ordered by Ling Junze before she could breathe. Many ssmates at the same term with her envied that she was taught by Ling Junze himself, but they had no idea what she had gone through. Seeing that she was dejected, Ling Junze raised his eyebrows. "What''s wrong? Don''t you want to do it? Okay, I''ll ask someone else to..." "No, no!" Tian Sangsang rushed up to him. "I''ll go, I''ll go..." Shit. She silently added thest half of the sentence in her heart. Although she was angry, she dared not to say it. Ling Junze lowered his head slightly and covered the slightly raised corners of his lips with his movements. He raised his hand over her shoulder de and pushed her forward. "Hurry up." ... Li Han hung up the phone and went straight into the kitchen. He found a soup pot that he had never used before, sliced the ginger, and put brown sugar taken out from the freezer into the pot. Ten minutes after boiling, he turned off the fire and poured the soup into the cup. He brought a cup of steamy brown sugar and ginger water into the bedroom and locked his eyes on the small ball on the bed. "Get up and drink." Shu Tian was arching her body in agony. She stuck her head out and nced at the steaming cup above her head. She was a little confused. "What is this?" The man''s wrist moved slightly. "Brown sugar and ginger water." Shu Tian was shocked and stood up to take a look. The dark brown liquid had the smell of ginger. She looked at the person beside her in a teasing manner. "Did you cook it?" Seeing that he was about to lose his temper, she quickly blew upon the water to cool it and took a sip. The warm heat flowed through her esophagus all the way to her stomach, and even her heart warmed up. In fact, Shu Tian didn''t like the taste of ginger. But seeing that he prepared this for her, she forced Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! herself to drink it, reluctant to waste his effort. "Are you feeling better?" Li Han''s face softened when he saw that she had drink it out obediently. Shu Tian couldn''t help butugh. "It can''t work so soon." "Ling Junze said it could work." She opened her mouth slightly and was a little surprised. "Why did you ask Doctor Ling about this? How embarrassing." "I saw you were very painful." Li Han helped her lie down and suddenly reached out to lift the hem of her shirt. Shu Tian was shocked and whispered, "What are you doing?" The man paused and understood why she had overreacted. He asked her unhappily in a bad tone, "I just want to help you rub your abdomen. What else can I do?" Shu Tian knew that she had thought too much so she touched her nose awkwardly. "I''m sorry. It was out of conditioned reflex." Wasn''t it because he was so...unscrupulous before? She still had a lingering fear so she overreacted. Li Han knew that she was ufortable so he did not care about what she did. He put his hand into her soft skin and did not do anything else. He really rubbed her gently. The man''s broad and warm palms were a little dry, and there were thin calluses on his fingertips. The touch of his skin against hers was extremely obvious, and there was really a continuous stream of warmth seeping into her skin. Shu Tian looked at his serious face and felt a surge of sweetness in her heart. Thinking of the first time she saw him, she was a little incredulous. "Do you know what''s my first impression of you?" "Hmm?" "Polished scoundrel and a beast in human clothing." Li Han''s eyes twitched, and the strength in his hand increased. "Do you want me to hit you?" "Really, it turns out that my first impression of you is very urate." Shu Tian knew that he couldn''t do anything with her now, so she tried to take advantage of him vocally. "Don''t you think so?" Li Han looked at her small face that looked proud and changed the subject. "Do you know what''s my first impression of you?" When he spoke of this, Shu Tian was a little curious. "What?" "Your skin is very white. Your face is very small. Your eyes are big. Your waist is very thin, and your butt is very voluptuous..." Before he could finish speaking, Shu Tian interrupted him, "What are you talking about? Is this your first impression of me?" "Men look at women in two ways." He looked at her casually as if nothing had happened, "Feeling nothing, or..." He leaned over to Shu Tian''s ear and left behind three words that made her feel ashamed and angry. His thin breath spread all over her neck. It was itchy and hot, like a small hand scratching her. Chapter 97 Chapter 97 Shu Tian tilted her head and dodged. "Be serious!" "I''m serious." Li Han seemed to think about the time when the two of them met and his sexy lips raised a wicked arc. "I''ve been plotting against you since the beginning." But he ignored it until one day he realized the impact this woman had on him, so he had to face it again. They had not seen each other for a few days so they madly missed each other. It was easy to have chemistry when they were lying on the bed. Shu Tian thought about it and decided to find something to distract herself. Thinking that the home theater in the vi seemed to have never been used, she suggested, "If you''re This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. freeter, let''s watch a movie." "Watch a movie?" Shu Tian pointed to the next door. "There is a home theater." In fact, Li Han didn''t like to watch movies, and he hardly used them after the device was installed. To him, this kind of thing was both a waste of time and a waste of emotion. It took him two or three hours to watch a movie, which was a waste of time. But if he watched it with Shu Tian, it didn''t seem that hard to ept. "I''ll help you over." "No need." Shu Tian stood up straight and smiled slyly at him. "Do you really treat me as a patient? Every woman feels pain when her periodes. It doesn''t matter." Li Han realized that she insisted and did not care anymore. He just slowed down and followed her, not walking with big steps as usual. Shu Tian saw such small details and felt warm in her heart. He was such a proud man and he had always been surrounded by others, but at this time, she would not have believed that he could be so meticulous without experiencing it personally. The two of them walked into the home theater one after another. Although they had never seen it before, the device was very new. There were rows of CDs on the shelves, all of which were collectibles and exclusive editions. She couldn''t help but be shocked. "You bought all of these?" "No, it''s all from Pei Yu." Li Han walked over and took one casually with his arm stretching over her side face. "Which one do you want to watch?" Shu Tian took a look at the one in his hand, "A beautiful life." She had seen it. It was a movie in thete 1990s, about the life of the Nazis and the Jews in that era and the story of a father who was strong and great. "Just watch this." The movie showed the warmest and touching side of human nature vividly. Li Han agreed. He turned around and put the CD into the projector. He took the nket and covered Shu Tian''s body. He leaned against her and grabbed her hand which was cold because of her pain. Unlike in the cinema, the two of them leaned together, their breath lingering between their noses, making them inexplicably calm down and enjoy the pure experience and feelings brought by the movie. Shu Tian was very engrossed in it, and Li Han was gradually attracted by the plot. In the middle of the scene, at a critical moment, the hero pretended to be a puppet toy to amuse his son, even trying to speak German that he had never learned tofort his son. In the end, the red army of the Soviet Union invaded the concentration camp, and his son was even living in the "happiness" created by his father. Shu Tian was moved. She couldn''t help but cry out, raise her hand to wipe away her tears and continue to watch it. Li Han could no longer concentrate his attention on the movie. He turned to the woman next to her. Under the dim light, her side face was a little pale, but this paleness still could not hide her soft beauty. Her beauty was not gaudy nor striking but warm and deep, faint but extremely attractive. He quietly looked at the little woman in his arms. She was really his mental potion. Even if she did nothing, he would be cured mentally by her. The music at the end of the movie rang, and Shu Tian came to her senses from the plot. She was a little embarrassed that she had cried for so long, but she looked up and met the deep eyes of the man. There was only light on the screen in the room. Neither of them spoke, and their eyes were filled with shadows of each other. Li Han''s heart was moved. He raised his hand and stroked her smooth cheek. The light in his eyes was like a sh of light in the deep sea, bright and almost stunning. He bent down slowly as if he was prevented from getting close but indeed he was approaching tentatively, and the ambiguous emotions passed between them through their eyes until his lips were pressed against hers, gradually kissing her harder with gentleness. The melodious ending song of the movie was not finished yet. It lingered in the room, creating an atmosphere that was intoxicating. Before he lost control, Li Han let go of her. His eyes seemed to be filled with hesitation, and his words were still not serious. "The timing is not right..." Shu Tian blushed and did not dare to look at him. For the first time, she felt that her period hade at such a bad time. "The movie is over." Li Han took a deep breath and tried his best to restrain his desire to touch her. He smoothed his clothes and sat down again. The lingering charm was still there. The air was filled with their tacit feelings of love. Shu Tian didn''t dare to take deep breaths. She was just about to walk out of the room when he grabbed her and pressed her against the wall. He lowered his head and bit her round earlobe. "You can run now. But I''ll let you pay back what you owe me when you''re well." ... Shu Tian rested all night. The next day, her stomach didn''t hurt that much. She had been feeling bad for the first day of her period but she would feel better after the first day passed. Li Han didn''t let her go to thepany. She insisted to go. Thinking of leaving Ji Chuanyi without saying goodbye the day before yesterday and leaving so much work behind, she felt very sorry and said she had to go. Li Han couldn''t persuade her so he had to agree. "Go there in my car." "No!" Shu Tian refused without thinking. "There are reporters outside thepany. If they find out..." "So what?" Li Han grabbed her soft little hand and said in an irrefutable tone, "I dare to take you there, so I''m not afraid of being discovered." "But..." "That''s it. If you don''t go there in my car, you are not allowed go to thepany." Sure enough, no matter how much Shu Tian refuted him, she knew it was useless. She obediently followed him into the car. Sitting in the passenger seat, she reached out to pull the seat belt beside her, and he nced over from the corner of his eye. "I have to persuade you in this way." Since she would never be obedient simply by hearing his orders, he could only be more stubborn than she was to persuade her. Shu Tian curled her lips and said nothing. Along the way, the car drove into the underground garage of the Hanyi Law Office building. The two of them got out of the car and were walking towards the elevator door. Suddenly, a group of reporters with cameras came out of nowhere. Countless ck microphones were handed to her. Shu Tian was stunned for a moment and subconsciously raised her hand to cover her face. "Stop, stop..." She pulled her clothes over to cover her face, and her voice was so low that it was almost inaudible. Li Han was soon surrounded by reporters, and everyone rushed at him, forcing him and Shu Tian to be separated. In themotion, someone bumped into Shu Tian''s shoulder. It might be a camera or some other equipment. Her shoulder hurt so much that she couldn''t keep her feet steady. She took a few steps back to maintain her bnce, but she didn''t hold it so she fell to the ground. Her knees and shoulders hurt. Shu Tian didn''t stand up immediately. Instead, she lowered her head in a self-protective posture, not letting others see her face. What happened these days made her lose the confidence to face reporters and she only wanted to hide from the public attention. Li Han looked at her sitting on the ground. He could not see her expression, but he could feel her sadness and pain. The bloodthirsty nature of him was waking up little by little, but unfortunately, the stupid reporters standing beside him did not notice that. Li Han shook his neck. If they were familiar with him, they would know that this was his signature move before he became angry. "Mr. Li, may I ask what is your rtionship with Miss Shu? It has been nearly a week since the news of you two being exposed broke out. You haven''t responded in person. Can you exin it directly?" Among them, a middle-aged male reporter held up a microphone with hispany logo on it and handed it to him. Behind his ck sses were a pair of eyes with a strong prying desire. He suddenly smiled, but it was creepy. Li Han looked at the reporter who asked the question. If he remembered correctly, this man had just bumped into Shu Tian and didn''t even turn his head back. Li Han looked at the camera the cameraman was holding behind the male reporter. The next second, he threw the expensive equipment dozens of meters away. The reporters were really shocked but he looked as if nothing had happened, and his terrifying gaze remained on the male reporter. "You, apologize to her." Chapter 98 Chapter 98 The male reporter had not recovered from the previous great shock. He looked at the broken equipment not far away and his pupils trembled fiercely. "Why, why did you smash my equipment? What ground do you have for doing this?" "What ground?" Li Han looked around at the reporters around him. "I have the ground that I didn''t give you an interview so you hurt my woman." The sentence was undoubtedly a bomb that instantly roused the crowd. What did Li Han say just now? His woman! Did that mean that he admitted Miss Shu''s identity?! For a moment, everyone had their own guesses in their hearts, but no one dared to ask as before. After all, considering Li Han''s status, it was definitely not appropriate to provoke him. Li Han took a step forward and people in front of him automatically made way. He walked up to Shu Tian and reached out his hand. "Get up." She felt ashamed with her shoulders trembling slightly. Her tears welled up in her eyes for she was moved by his words just now. She had never been a weak person, nor did she like to cry. However, she became exceptionally weak every time he was around. At this moment, this man was the only one she could rely on. Shu Tian put her hand into his palm. The next second, he pulled her up and held her tightly in his arms. He pressed the back of her head to block all the shing lights and unfriendly eyes, leaving only this extremely warm embrace for her. It was a simple move, but no one in the room dared to look down on Shu Tian anymore. They looked at her with fear and respect. She was the first woman Li Han admitted in public. But... He just admitted her like this. Wasn''t he afraid of being a subject of criticism? Obviously, Li Han also knew what they were thinking and did not intend to give everyone time to specte. "Lawyer Wu was introduced to Miss Shu by me. We have already been in a rtionship since Miss Shu filed the divorcewsuit. Thus, there was nothing unreasonable, including the reported infidelity." Li Han took the initiative to speak, and everyone was stunned. After a long silence, a reporter finally asked in a trembling voice, "Didn''t you, didn''t you say that you were just friends?" The man nced over. "Boyfriend and girlfriend. What''s wrong with that?" It seemed nothing was wrong. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! Unable to refute, the reporter nodded, "That''s right." Li Han moved his eyes away and did not care what others thought. "You can report whatever I say. As long as it is true, you will not be held ountable." After that, he put his arm around Shu Tian and they entered the elevator without looking back. The elevator door was closed and the reporters who were still standing in the parking lot looked at each other. After a few seconds, they came back to their senses and rushed back to their cars to quickly edit what had just happened to headquarters. The one covering the big news definitely would attract significant attention. ... At the same time, Shu Tian was brought into the president''s office by Li Han. She looked up in his arms and her eyes were still red. "Aren''t you afraid that what you said will bring you trouble?" After all, there were so many unkindments on the inte criticizing that she was reckless in her personal life. He was now undoubtedly drawing everyone''s malicious attention to himself. But he didn''t care and said to her, "I don''t care." Shu Tian frowned. "But I care." Thest thing she wanted to see was that the reputation of Li Han, as a qualifiedwyer respected by so many people was ruined because of her. She didn''t want to see him be despised and disgusted. The woman''s gentle but firm tone made Li Han''s heart tremble. "It''s okay. I''m not Tang Zechen. If I say that, I''m 100% prepared to protect you." "What are you going to do?" Li Han raised his hand and stroked her uneasy face. "You don''t have to worry about it. I can handle this." Others scolded her because he did not respond. Now that he did, others would not continue to scold Shu Tian as before. Li Han was also worried that some people who insulted Shu Tian must be the online water army arranged by Tang Zechen. Unlike Tang Zechen, he could handle all this without troubling her. It turned out that Li Han had done what he said. After he announced Shu Tian''s identity, the news made the headlines in less than half an hour. The news became the most searched hashtag. Many websites ran slow and even became paralyzed because of it. Shu Tian had been staying at the president''s office, not because she didn''t want to go out, but because she didn''t have the confidence to face other people''s strange eyes, especially after the news was released. Looking at the man at the desk who was concentrating on his business, she walked over slowly. "Li Han, have you seen the news?" "Yes." The man replied perfunctorily, not raising his head, and his eyes were still fixed on the document. Shu Tian felt uneasy. "Just let them do it?" "The public rtions department is already dealing with this. Pei Yu knows people and has told them to deal with this." Shu Tian understood. It turned out that he was really prepared. However, there was another issue. "It may be inappropriate for me to still work in the Hanyi Law Office?" After saying this, the man who had been working without any reaction finally stopped his pen and paused slightly. He elegantly covered the cap and looked up at her. "Why is it inappropriate?" "Our rtionship might make people embarrassed." His handsome eyebrows raised slightly. "Are you embarrassed?" "No, someone else." "What does that have to do with me?" Shu Tian was moved by his stubbornness as if he didn''t care about anyone at all. Shu Tian sighed and reminded him, "People will talk about you behind your back." "Will they?" He curled his lips and said confidently, "At least in front of me and you, they don''t dare." "But..." "Shu Tian." Li Han interrupted her. "It''s hard to ept anything unexpected, so do we. Although some people will specte in their hearts at first, they would ept the reality in the end. Thus, this news is temporary, but you have to face it personally." If they wanted to be together, they had to have the courage to face all this. Shu Tian knew what he wanted to say. She was just worried that he would be implicated because of her. But it seemed that he wasn''t afraid, so she shouldn''t just hold herself back. Shu Tian took two deep breaths and mustered up her courage. "Then I''ll go straight back to the office "Come here first." Li Han waved at her. "Come to me." She didn''t know what he wanted to do. Shu Tian was still having her period and was not afraid that he would do something to her. She walked to him and said, "What''s wrong?" The man stood up and hooked her chin to kiss her. His kiss was fleeting and soon left her lips. "You can go now." The warmth on his lips lingered for only a second, and Shu Tian almost didn''t react. She reached out and pushed him, saying in a hurry, "I''m leaving." Li Han stared at the small figure intently which was out of his view soon as the door of the office opened and closed, isting her appearance. The man sat back in his chair, opened the document again, but he was unable to concentrate. For the first time in so many years, he was unable to focus on his work. The man''s sexy thin lips curled up in a self-deprecating way, and less than a minute after she left, he began to think, "Li Han, Li Han, you''re falling in love with her unconsciously." Chapter 99 Chapter 99 When Shu Tian returned to the office, she received attention from everyone. Although everyone was trying not to put an eye on Shu Tian, Shu Tian still felt much attention which was like shining sunlight. Just as she reached her seat, Wei Xiangming suddenly came out of the office and called out to her, "Shu Tian,e here for a moment." Shu Tian paused and turned to follow. Entering the office, Wei Xiangming didn''t beat around the bush and said bluntly, "I''ve seen the news about you and Boss Li. I want to know what you think about that." Putting aside those hypocritical routines, Shu Tian felt much morefortable by such honesty. "Manager Wei, I have no idea. I just want to do my job well and work hard." Wei Xiangming looked at her, smiled politely, and didn''t say much. She just asked Shu Tian, "Have you ever thought that your rtionship with Boss Li might affect the rtionship between you and other colleagues?" Shu Tian thought, "We announced our rtionship, and our colleagues would be more or less afraid, which would indeed have a lot of bad effects on our work." Shu Tian pondered for a moment, exactly as what Li Han had just said, "There will be an impact, but it will notst long, and I think the impact is more from the spector himself. As long as I am strict with myself, I believe that these will all pass, and everyone will only work harder." "It''s best for you to think like this, but I will keep an eye on your work status. If anything happens, I will advise my superiors to make other arrangements for you." After that, Wei Xiangming added, "Of course, you may not be afraid. I hope you can understand that I''m just doing my work." Shu Tian nodded nomittally. "I understood." Shu Tian preferred a leader like Wei Xiangming rather than Liu Wei. Wei Xiangming would tell you what needed to be noticed or your wrongs in work directly, instead of trying to make things difficult, and she was just being objective. Just like their conversation just now, there was not a single word that made Shu Tian feel unjust, but more able to inspire her to work hard. Seeing Shu Tian so magnanimous, Wei Xiangming nodded approvingly. "All right, you can go out first. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me." Shu Tian left the office and sat back in her office seat. Next to her seat was Zhang Rui''er''s desk. They were separated by a partition and could hear each other. Shu Tian opened thepany''s internalmunication software and sent Zhang Rui''er a message. After waiting for a long time, she finally received a reply. There was only a single question mark. Shu Tian, "I don''t know how to exin it to you. There are some things I am not sure about before, so I couldn''t tell you. I hope you don''t me me. I didn''t want to lie to you. I''m sorry." After a long time, it kept showing that "the other one is typing", and it could be seen that Zhang Rui''er N?velDrama.Org holds this content. was hesitant about what to say. In the end, Zhang Rui''er only sent a few words, "Why didn''t you say when I asked you?" Shu Tian bit her lip, "I wasn''t sure back then." Zhang Rui''er curled up her hand above the keyboard and said nervously, "You and Boss Li are really a couple. In the eyes of others, I am really a woman who relies on someone powerful." Once, Shu Tian was said to have a backer and was ostracized. Only Zhang Rui''er was willing to get along with Shu Tian because she thought Shu Tian had a good personality and a very good moral character. People, however, thought Shu Tian to be fawning on someone with a powerful background. Now that Li Han had admitted Shu Tian was his girlfriend, everyone in thepany who knew about their rtionship was surprised that the two people who seemed to be very distant actually got together. Shu Tian was not a mistress as rumors. They were in love. When Zhang Rui''er saw the news, she almost spat out the porridge in her mouth. Besides being surprised, she was more disappointed. She had asked Shu Tian more than once about her rtionship with Li Han, and Shu Tian denied it either directly or indirectly. Although it was reasonable not to say because it was personal business, Zhang Rui''er could not help but feel disappointed. Did Shu Tian consider her as a friend? When Shu Tian saw the message replied by Zhang Rui''er, she felt a wave of guilt and stopped talking on theputer, but to drag Zhang Rui''er directly to the tea room. They two stood side by side. For the first time, the atmosphere was so awkward. Shu Tian still took the initiative to say, "Rui, it''s not what you think. Although Li Han and I have known each other for a while, our rtionship has not been formally established. When you asked me before, I don''t know how to define our rtionship. It was only today that he admitted our rtionship clearly." "So you were together before today?" Hearing this, Shu Tian''s face was a little hot, and she nodded awkwardly, "Yes." The beginning of the story between Li Han and Shu Tian was indeed not good, even terrible actually. If Shu Tian hadn''t fallen in love with Li Hanter, she wouldn''t have imagined what she would have experienced. Zhang Rui''er looked at Shu Tian lowering her head slowly, looking like Shu Tian had done something wrong. Zhang Rui''er didn''t feel good, either. What was wrong with Shu Tian? There was no absolute thing in a rtionship. Only the person involved knew what happened. As an outsider, Zhang Rui''er was not qualified to judge, nor was she qualified to be angry just because of Shu Tian''s concealment. All she cared about was Shu Tian, her friend. Thinking of this, Zhang Rui''er asked Shu Tian seriously, "Shu Tian, do you treat me as a friend?" Hearing that, Shu Tian raised her head in shock. Her big eyes seemed to be about to pop out. "What are you talking about? How can I not treat you as a friend?" In her heart, Zhang Rui''er was her best colleague in Hanyi Law Office, and they were still friends in private. How could Zhang Rui''er have such doubts? Zhang Rui''er was young, the same age as Shu Tian. Zhang Rui''er might not see things very clearly, but she was truly a person who treasured friendship. The two of them were face to face, and they were not lying to each other. It could be seen from their eyes. Her eyes gradually reddened. "Why did you make such big news without saying a word? I thought you were Cindere. Who knows you are the princess in the ivory tower..." Knowing that she was still in the mood to joke, Shu Tian heaved a sigh of relief and shook her head. "Are you joking me too?" Zhang Rui''er answered angrily. "Now you are Boss Li''s girlfriend, so you will get anything you want." "You take Li Han as a much better man." Shu Tian was a little helpless, took Zhang Rui''er''s hand and looked at her sincerely. "Rui, I always treat you as a friend. In my heart, we are not only colleagues but also friends. We are still good friends after leaving Hanyi Law Office someday. I had my own difficulties before. Don''t misunderstand. I''ve never been on guard against you. I just don''t know what to say..." Zhang Rui''er''s eyes turned even redder when she heard this. She looked at Shu Tian for a few seconds and broke into a smile. She couldn''t help but be amused by Shu Tian''s sad face. "You, just appreciate your happy life. You didn''te to the office this morning. You can not imagine how many people envy you. You don''t even know what they said. They are so jealous of you. So I think no one will dare to conflict with you face to face in the future." Shu Tian had been ostracized and bullied so badly before, but now it was her turn to hold her head high. Although Shu Tian said no, her behavior was still very honest. When she heard such apliment to Li Han, she had an inexplicable sense of pride. The man she liked should be so outstanding. The misunderstanding was solved. Shu Tian and Zhang Rui''er got back together as usual. In fact, it was not a quarrel. It was just a misunderstanding. Fortunately, Shu Tian solved it in time so that the tension would not get tighter. As they talked freely, Zhang Rui''er became unscrupulous and whispered in Shu Tian''s ear, "Don''t forget me when you be the president''s wife in the future. Your good sister, me, is still single. Remember to introduce a few rich guys to me." Hearing this, Shu Tian thought of an iparably handsome face almost at the same time. She thought about it carefully and then looked at Zhang Rui''er. "You really want to find someone, and here is a one." Zhang Rui''er was just saying it, and she didn''t expect Shu Tian really knows someone. She nodded immediately. "Well, good. Do you have any photos? Let me take a look." "No need." Shu Tian looked at her teasingly. "We both know him." "Yes?" Zhang Rui''er looked confused. "Who is he?" "Zhang Bikun." Shu Tian lowered her voice and walked out of the tea room. A gleaming color shed, and Shu Tian elbowed Zhang Rui''er. "Here he is." Chapter 100 Chapter 100 She looked up and saw two tall figures came from the other end of the corridor. The man in the front was Li Han, decently dressed in a dark blue suit with a sense of gentility. The tie was the one she gave him, so was the cufflinks. Li Han''s fine figure fit the suit just right, and his inborn imposing manner made people no dare to look at him. Zhang Bikun was one step behind Li Han, holding two folders in his hands. He was in a ck suit, unbuttoned, revealing the white shirt and a tie with the same color. Unlike before, after Shu Tian carefully looked Zhang Bikun up and down, she found out that he was also a man of striking appearance. Zhang Bikun''s face was even smaller than Li Han''s. His foxy eyes and smiling lips formed a gentle expression, matching his wisdom and discerning mind surprisingly well. Li Han walked up to Shu Tian and saw her looking at his secretary obsessively. He looked a little sulky, "Who are you looking at?" Zhang Rui''er nodded and greeted Li Han ahead of time, "Boss Li." Shu Tian finally came around and said immediately, "Boss Li." Li Han replied and stood still. This was the first time that Zhang Rui''er had such close contact with her boss, so she was quite timid and nervous. Zhang Rui''er said with a great insight of the situation, "Then I''ll go back to the office first." Shu Tian was embarrassed and held Zhang Rui''er''s arm. "Let''s go together." "Ah? No, no need..." Zhang Rui''er looked around the room and was a little flustered. "Don''t you have something to say to Boss Li? I won''t disturb you..." "You won''t disturb us. It''s okay." Shu Tian just wouldn''t let her go and thought, "If Zhang Rui''er leaves now, it seems as if something disgraceful might happen between me and Li Han." Zhang Bikun didn''t pay attention to Zhang Rui''er at first. However, being interrupted, he looked at the badge on Zhang Rui''er''s chest and found out that they have the samest name. Shu Tian blinked to Li Han, "Do you have anything else to say? If not, we will go back to the office." Zhang Bikun saw that Li Han was going to remain the reticent and aloof look. He reminded Shu Tian, "Boss Li came down for a meeting. He worried about you, so he wanted to check on you by the way." Shu Tian nodded. What a "by the way." At this moment, Li Han finally said, "Wait for me after work tonight." "Don''t you have a meeting?" "Wait until the meeting is over." Li Han was looking at Shu Tian''s hair and couldn''t stand it anymore. He raised his hand and brushed her locks of wild hair behind her ear. "There''s a lounge in my office." As soon as he said that, not to mention Shu Tian, even Zhang Rui''er''s face turned red. It was just that his words were easy to arouse imaginations. "Ahem, you should go." Shu Tian pulled Zhang Rui''er''s arm with a bashful face. "Let''s go." Zhang Rui''er was dying to to disappear immediately. She left quickly with her head down. Shu Tian waited for Zhang Rui''er to turn around, and then she gave Li Han a re and mouthed to him, "SHAME ON YOU!" The man raised his eyebrows and didn''t take it seriously. He quickly bend his arm round the back of Shu Tian''s neck, leaned forward, and kissed her lower lip. "Go ahead." Shu Tian: @$#?*%&*? She felt shy. ... While Tang Zechen was waiting for Shu Tian to admit her failure, he got the breaking news that Li Han acknowledged Shu Tian as his girlfriend. In the underground garage, people surrounded the two of them in front of the car. The man held the woman''s body tightly in his arms in apletely protective gesture. Just standing there, Li Han looked remarkably powerful. But the woman in Li Han''s arms was nobody else but Tang Zechen''s ex-wife, Shu Tian. The door of the office was suddenly pushed open from outside. Jiang Mengyao broke in and even forgot to knock the door. "Chen, did you watch the news? Shu Tian was..." Before she finished the sentence, Jiang Mengyao stopped. She saw Tang Zechen''s angry face and understood that he already saw it all. Tang Zechen exploded into rage instantly. He kicked the office door shut, and then mmed his phone on the wall. With a bang, his phone was smashed the pieces were all over the floor. Jiang Mengyao was frightened by his sudden outburst and sat on the sofa in fear. "Chen, we are at the "How can I calm down!" Tang Zechen roared at her. Li Han remained silent for so long that he thought Li Han was going to give up on Shu Tian and hide. However, Tang Zechen didn''t expect Li Han to respond in such a way when the public opinion was one- sided. He grabbed Jiang Mengyao''s phone, opened the news link, and swiped to the bottom of the page to see thements. Few hours ago, everyone was criticizing Shu Tian. Now the opinions were fifty-fifty. Many people turned against him and started to pull him up. "Already suited for divorce, her ex-husband is still shameless imposing himself on his ex-wife. How unlucky..." "It seems that Li Han and Shu Tian are true love. What the hell is this ex-husband doing? Can''t bear to see his ex-wife has a happy life with other man, so hees out looking for provocation?" "I feel like this ex-husband is a drama queen. The couple didn''t seem to do anything that offends him. By the way, does anyone know why they divorced?" ... As thements went on and on, Tang Zechen was angry and flustered. He cursed with fury, "Bitches, they are all fucking bitches!" Jiang Mengyao was panicked and afraid that he would smash her phone too because of his anger. Tang Zechen in front of her was like another person now. He was no longer funny and charming like before. Instead, he was entirely driven by anger, like a violent maniac who could do anything. She was even afraid that Tang Zechen would take this anger out on her. Jiang Mengyao watched him losing his temper. After more than ten minutes, Tang Zechen finally calmed down a little. She said, "Don''t just be so angry. It''s already happened. Think about how to solve it." "Solve it?!" Tang Zeche''s eyes were full of cruelty. "Li Han could say such words means that he''s not going to stand by and watch. He would definitely attack Boyu." After all, Tang Zechen was not aplete fool after all these years doing business. He knew what Li Han''s gesture represented. He didn''t expect Li Han to care about Shu Tian so much that he could even abandon his reputation! "Isn''t Li Han afraid of being implicated by Shu Tian?" Jiang Mengyao still couldn''t believe that Shu Tian had taken Li Han as her boyfriend in that way! Tang Zechen smiled sinisterly. "Do you think he''s afraid now? He''s dying to eat every piece of me to help Shu Tian vent her spleen." Jiang Mengyao frowned, feeling that things were more serious than she thought. Li Han... She remembered the first time she saw him at the police station, he was handsome, tall, and strong, and even his whole body had a kind of arrogance that people didn''t dare to approach. He was perfect, but there were a sharpness and calmness hidden in this perfection. If he really wanted to do something to plot against Tang Zechen, Jiang Mengyao could already see the results more or less. Tang Zechen couldn''t be his opponent. That man was too scary. But such a man was willing to do all this for Shu Tian. Jiang Mengyao clenched her hands unconsciously, and the feeling of extreme imbnce appeared again. If she had known Li Han first, he would not have liked Shu Tian. What was so good about Shu Tian? She was not flirtatious, nor was she charming. Men would not like a wood-like woman. They only liked her feminine, but Shu Tian happened to know him. Thinking of this, she couldn''t help but say viciously, "She''s just a divorced woman. Even if Li Han could ept it, his family would never ept her!" Chapter 101 Chapter 101 Yet what Jiang Mengyao said reminded Tang Zechen. Since there was no breakthrough from Li Han, he could make Li Han''s family intervene. Li Han could not care about his reputation. What about his family? Li Han''s family would definitely not allow him to defend a divorced woman so recklessly. With this thought, Tang Zechen let out a sly smile. He then sat down beside Jiang Mengyao and hugged her delicate waist. "Mengyao, you''re so smart. Why didn''t I think of this? Since Li Han is so reckless, we might as well make a big thing out of it. Naturally, someone wille forward to stop him!" At that time, the Li family would be fighting against each other. How could they have time to care about Shu Tian? Tang Zechen seemed to be sure that his n would seed, his eyes sparkled in excitement. Yet being hugged by him, for the first time, Jiang Mengyao felt strange in her heart. She somehow repelled his approach. Thinking that Shu Tian would be held in Li Han''s arms like this, she could not help but feel the constant jealousy in her heart. Tang Zechen was a lustful man. In the past few days, he had been busy making troubles for Li Han and fabricating news, so he had no time to go out for "entertainment." At this time, all the desires in his body were released. He then kissed her lips eagerly, without any gentleness. He pried open her teeth and stuck his tongue in. For him, it was just a way to vent his sexual desire. He wouldn''t want to waste his time for the forey. But not only was she not turned on by him at all, she felt a little disgusted. Even though she was a little reluctant, she did not push him away and even kissed him back. After all, she now depended entirely on the Tang family. They were tantly "messing around" in the office, and the secretaries in next door all frowned in disgust. When the boss had no moral integrity, as subordinates, they were really embarrassed. Liuu, a secretary, had been harassed by him, but because of this high-paying job, she held her anger back. Yet since then, she despised him even more. Now that due to all kinds of negative news, BY Technology''s situation changed from good to bad. And she finally couldn''t stand it anymore and said to another close colleague next to her, "I''m going to resign." "Ah? So suddenly?" She then nced at the office door with a hint of contempt on her face. "It''s not sudden. I''ve endured it for a long time." Another colleague just sighed. All of them had to tolerate their boss''s awful behavior for long! It was really unlucky to work for such a boss. If it wasn''t for the sake of money, who would work with Tang Zechen? But at this time, Tang Zechen, who was having sex with Jiang Mengyao in the office, did not notice the employees'' thoughts at all. He went his own way and was immersed in the fantasy of ruining Li Han and Shu Tian. [...] On the first day of her rtionship with Li Han being exposed, Shu Tian could finally get away from others'' curious gaze and got off work smoothly. dly, all the people who badmouthed her before were no longer as arrogant as before. No matter what they thought in their hearts, at least they were afraid of her rtionship with Li Han and did not dare to show it on the surface. When she went to copy the documents in the afternoon, she ran into Wu Mengfan and Yu, who had deliberately bumped into her in the coffee shop before. Both of them looked very strange when they saw her. They felt embarrassed and nervous, but pretended to be very confident. But Shu Tian didn''t want to have anything to do with them. She then turned on the copier and put the original document in it to make a copy. Standing still behind her, they looked at each other. And Wu Mengfan said first, "Shu Tian, I know what you''re thinking. Now that you have a powerful backer, you won''t let us go. Don''t think that just because you''re dating Mr. Li... Why are you pinching me?" Yu wanted to remind her not to say anything more, but she didn''t expect Wu Mengfan to scold her. She then looked at Shu Tian awkwardly with fear in her eyes. Earlier, Shu Tian was miffed, but now she suddenly became a little cheerful. In fact, everyone wanted to make themselves a name in thispany. And the women were mostly either taking care of clothes or gossiping. She indeed had a bad reputation before, and it was wrong for her to jump to conclusions. And she shouldn''t have said that about Gong Long. Compared to Wu Mengfan, she didn''t look so hateful. Shu Tian then looked away and tidied up the photocopied documents. "I won''t do anything to you. As long as you don''t trouble me in the future, I won''t say anything." She just wanted to exin, but to Wu Mengfan, it became a show-off, as if she was giving her mercy to them. "Shu Tian, you don''t have to pretend to be so generous. Everyone knows what kind of person you are..." "What kind of person am I?" Shu Tian interrupted and looked at her. And her gentle eyes now became sharp as Li Han''s. "We don''t have much contact or interaction in private. Do you really know what I am like? You just nder me based on your assumption. If I have taken it to heart, do you think you can still stay in the HY Law Office?" Her words were so powerful that Wu Mengfan was powerless to refute. Because that was the truth. And Yu suddenly lowered her head. At the thought of what she had done before, she was burning with embarrassment. "I''m sorry..." Although her voice was very low, everyone present could hear it clearly. Wu Mengfan looked at her in disbelief. "What did you say?" Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! "Mengfan, just stop this nonsense, okay?" Yu persuaded. Yet Wu Mengfan didn''t want to listen it. She felt betrayed and didn''t realize she was the one who made mistakes. Quickly, she let go of Yu''s hand and said angrily, "You... you are weak!" After saying that, she turned around and left, as if Shu Tian had bullied her. There were only two people left in the copy room, and Yu remained where she was. After a moment of unbearable silence, Shu Tian finally restrained the anger in her heart and raised her hand to pat Yu on the shoulder. After all, there had been so many conflicts between them before, she could not utter anything nice, only saying coolly, "It''s okay." Yu raised her head in disbelief. "Don''t you, don''t you me me?" Shu Tian then smiled. "It''s all over. Besides, you hate me because of the person you like." Her words revealed Yu''s little secret. And Yu''s originally pale face instantly blushed with embarrassment. Before she could speak, Shu Tian cut in, "Don''t worry, I won''t tell anyone. Since you like him, fight for your love. ndering others won''t make you look superior." Upon hearing that, Yu bit her lip. Although Shu Tian didn''t say much, Yu just felt very embarrassed. Looking at Shu Tian''s back, she suddenly understood why Li Han and Ye Junting would like Shu Tian, because Shu Tian was a very special person, warm and upright, with the rarest moral quality of this society. Completely different from them, she was seemingly weak but with an iparably strong heart. Chapter 102 Chapter 102 Although Wu Mengfan irritated her, Yu''s attitude appeased her. The announcement of her romance should do her some good. However, it made sense. Rumors about Li Han and her easily stirred people''s minds and made them gossip behind her back. Now they had nothing to say since they had admitted their rtion. After work, she went to the president''s office, where Li Han was preparing for a meeting. Sitting on the sofa, she felt bored. The thought of Zhang Bikun pushed her to ask, "How old is Zhang Bikun?" He didn''t look up. "Twenty-seven." A good match for the twenty-five-year-old Zhang Rui'' er! She nodded and continued, "Where did he graduate? Is he your secretary?" His pen pausing for a moment, he answered truthfully, "MIT. Not only a secretary, but he is also a shareholder." She was surprised by the answer. "A sessful young man! I thought he was only an employee. Sounds great!" She kept muttering to herself. The more she thought about it, the more satisfied she was. His brows furrowed, but he said nothing. "By the way, does he have a girlfriend?" She had almost forgotten the most important question. Li Han narrowed his eyes and pped his pen on the table. He fixed his eyes on her and asked in displeasure, "What do you mean?". Obviously, he couldn''t turn a blind ear to her questions anymore. She had asked the background of his secretary in detail. Okay, he took it. Now she should ask about the girlfriend thing. He was in a bad mood and added unkindly, "Whatever, you don''t have any chance. You are not his type." His words got her confused for seconds. What was he talking about? Was he jealous of... She saw the point and held back herughter as much as she could. His serious face tempted her to make fun of him. "Oh, I''m not his type. What type am I?" Seeing that she stuck to the topic, he decided to counterattack. "Short, t-chested, and t-bottomed. Opposite to his taste." "..." Anger rose in her instantly. She took a deep breath after another to repress it, but she failed. She got up and strode to the desk, propping her hands on the table and ring at him. "Short with t chest and t butt?" However, he was super self-possessed. This made the fire in her heart burn more violently. She was on the brink of exploding. "The t bottom, let''s leave it aside. Is my chest t? I am 1.67 meters tall. You think I''m short?" "1.67 meters, really?" He raised his eyebrows in suspicion. Every time she stood in front of him, she was like a little child. It was easy to pick her up, and the top of her head was under his eyes. "Please note that you are a giant. I''m above the average height, okay?" He leaned back in his chair without any intention to continue this argument. "What are you angry at? Is it because you are not Zhang Bikun''s type?" She didn''t want to provoke him. "I want to introduce him to one of my colleagues!" A glimmer of joy shed across his eyes, and he quicklyposed himself. "Which colleague?" "Zhang Rui'' er, you met her at noon." She snapped back at him, furious at hisment. Although she was no raving beauty, Zhang Rui'' er had been chased by many boys. From junior high school to college, love letters often filled her drawer. However, she was struck by a scumbag, Tang Zechen. Realizing that she really got angry, he withdrew his chair and patted his legs. "Come here." "No, I am t-chested, t-bottomed, and short. I don''t make your eyes hurt." "Do you take it seriously?" He teased her with an evil grin. "Can''t I have no idea of your chest?" She was still unhappy. "You''ve talked about it several times. You think I''m ugly, don''t you?" "When did I say it the other times?" Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. "Last time youined that I was not good-looking, and just now you grumbled about my figure." She was confident of herself most of the time, but not in front of Li Han. He was so perfect that he always was dissatisfied with her here and there. It gave her a sense of crisis. Atst, he shot himself in the foot and had to please her now. He looked at his wristwatch. There were more than ten minutes before the meeting. He walked over to her and lifted her sharp chin. "Why didn''t you remember my praise for you?" "Did you ever do that?" He thought for a moment. "When we were in bed." She pushed him away. "Get away from me!" "Away?" he didn''t leave her side but pinched her chin with a stronger force. His tone became more serious. "Dare you say it again?" She nced at him and was frightened. "You have learnt how to swear, right?" "It doesn''t count." He smiled. "You''ve got more guts." Her face became a little hot. She disengaged herself from his grip, her chin reddened. He couldn''t help but caress the red skin. How delicate it was! "I want to introduce your secretary to Zhang Rui'' er." "As you please." He didn''t care about it as soon as she was not into him. Her big eyes sparkled. "Let''s make an appointmentter." "Okay, but there is no second time." He put down his hand and stuffed it into his pocket. "I don''t forbid nor admire office romances." She nodded obediently. "Okay, I see." As the talk closed, Zhang Bikun came in to remind him of the meeting. Before leaving, he said to her, "I have booked a restaurant tonight. Wait for me." Her heart beating quickly, she waved her hand. "I see. You should go." Li Han tidied up his clothes and walked out with steady steps, domineering and decent. Bored by herself, Shu Tian picked up on an essay collection the bookshelf that had nothing to do with financialw. The office was so quiet that she fell asleep on the sofa after a while. An hourter, the meeting was over. Li Han saw her huddling on the sofa when he opened the office door. His lips curled up, and he turned to stop Zhang Bikun, who was about toe in. "There''s no need to summarize. Send the file to my mailbox after you sort it out." "Okay, Mr. Li." How could Zhang Bikun not know the reason? He immediately carried the document back to his office. Li Han closed the door, put the documents on the table, and trod lightly to her. She was in her sound sleep, a grin on her face possibly because of a good dream. The scene warmed his heart. He looked at her and couldn''t help but lean over to look for her lips. He kissed her gently. One kiss after another. Chapter 103 Chapter 103 A few minutester, Shu Tian was woken up by him. She opened her eyes in a daze and saw the handsome face in front of her. She subconsciously shrank back but was pulled back by the man. "..." The warm thing on her mouth reminded her of what had happened. Did he think that she was candy? Why did he keep kissing her? Little did she know that Li Han did treat her like candy. The man stared at her with burning eyes. She could only cough and remind him, "My period hasn''t passed yet." He buried his head in her neck and sighed deeply, "Women are really troublesome." "It''s you who are easy to get... excited." As soon as she finished speaking, she was pinched at the waist. She let out a low cry and obediently shut her mouth, not provoking him anymore. Li Han finally calmed down, and he took off his coat from the hanger. It was a dark id long woolen coat, down to his knees. He wore a decent suit inside, looking exactly like a handsome president. Shu Tian found it pleasing to look at his body, but suddenly, the man wrapped the dark gray scarf around her neck clumsly, blocking half of her face. Li Han looked at her big round eyes and raised his hand to ruffle the hair on top of her head, "Cute girl." Shu Tian was speechless. Well, Shu Tian didn''t want to respond to him. The two of them took the elevator downstairs and got into the car together. He didn''t say where to go, and Shu Tian didn''t ask. She looked out the window at the street scene. Although winter wasing, she felt warm in her heart. The pleasant smell of his scarf made her feel especially at ease. The car stopped at an upscale western restaurant in the city. Shu Tian followed him and was led all the way into the private room. Looking at the luxurious decorations inside, she looked around like a curious baby. After Li Han ordered, he handed her a ss of hot water, "Do you like here?" Shu Tian was still looking around, "Yes, I like it." Not long after, the dishes were ready. Their steaks were cooked in different degrees, Shu Tian ordered medium well and Li Han ordered medium rare. Looking at the fresh meet on his te, Shu Tian was a little envious. Li Han then cut a piece for her. The atmosphere was good. He opened a good bottle of dry red wine and handed it to Shu Tian. She was a little surprised, "Why do you want to drink?" Usually, Li Han did not allow her to drink wine. After all, she had done something bad when she was drunk before. N?velDrama.Org holds this content. Under the soft light, the food had a delicious luster, and his face was less sharp. Shu Tian could feel the the real gentleness of this man right now. "To celebrate the first day of us being together." His voice was as deep as an old clock. Shu Tian was stunned for a moment, and thest trace of her unease disappeared. She thought that he would be more or less worried about their rtionship, so she did not expect that he would celebrate it. No wonder he booked such a good restaurant. It turned out to be premeditated. Shu Tian drank a toast to him and gulped it down in a huff. Li Han knew how much she could drink. Therefore, he poured her three sses and stopped, afraid that she would get drunk and feel ufortable the next day. After dinner, Li Han walked out of the restaurant. Instead of taking her to the car, he walked along the roadside. Shu Tian followed him and looked at the car not far away, "Aren''t we going home?" "Let''s take a walk." Shu Tian was shocked and stared at him for a while. Under the streetlight, the man looked very gentle. There was nothing around his neck, as his scarf was on her neck. She could not help but smile, and she put her little hand into his coat pocket. Feeling his fingers curled up a little bit, Shu Tian touched his palm and squinted at him with a wicked smile, "Are you surprised?" The next second, her little hand was covered by his big warm palm, "Watch the way." In fact, Li Han felt a little ufortable walking with his girlfriend who was eight years younger than him. He pretended to be indifferent in front of her, but in fact, his heart was beating hard. Although they had done everything a couple would do, he felt so moved just holding her hands right now. Stepping on theyer of snow-white, Shu Tian looked back at the two sets of footprints left behind, knowing that she haspletely fallen in love with this man. [...] At the same time, Tang Zechen was trying his best to prevent the two from being together. After listening to Jiang Mengyao''s words, he asked a private detective to find the address of Li Han''s grandfather. He was in a single-parent family and he was not close to his parents, but he maintained a good rtionship with his Grandpa and Grandma. Moreover, Tang Zechen thought that the old men were easy to utilize as they were more rigid. However, Tang Zechen found it useless even when he had already known their address. He had to pin all the me for the divorce on Shu Tian, otherwise, he could not find any ck history of her. After thinking for a while, he decided to take a risk. He found a person who was extremely skillful at photoshop and sent him pictures of Shu Tian. It cost him a lot for the person to take the order. Two dayster, when the photo was sent back, Jiang Mengyao happened to be in the study with Tang Zechen and saw the contents of the photo. The first thing she saw was a man and a woman''s naked bodies entangled together, with all kinds of postures and no sense of beauty. And the heroine was Shu Tian. Jiang Mengyao looked at Tang Zechen in surprise, "This, this..." "How''s it?" Tang Zechen proudly handed the photos to her. "Send these photos to Li Han''s family''s residence. I don''t believe that they can bear such a daughter-inw." These photos were so shocking and it was even disgusting to take a look at one of them. Jiang Mengyao was worried, "But these photos are fake. Will Li Han sue you?" "Sue me?" Tang Zechen didn''t care at all. "It''s just a vition of the right to portraits, and I didn''t get any benefits from them. The worst was to pay some money. Besides, I don''t think he wanted everyone on the Inte to see these photos. Although they were fake, Shu Tian''s face was on it. He would not let those lewdizens see Shu Tian''s face." Jiang Mengyao was a little stunned by his words. Although she hated Shu Tian, she thought that Tang Zechen''s actions were also disgusting. If one day she left Tang Zechen, would she be left in a worse situation? Tang Zechen waspletely unaware of Jiang Mengyao''s emotions. He was immersed in his own world. It didn''t matter if the pictures were true or not. His purpose was to make people of the Li family feel ufortable and thus stop the two from being together. Tang Zechen put the photos in an envelope... Chapter 104 Chapter 104 Li Han knew that Tang Zechen would give his dying kicks. He would frame him and Shu Tian with his information about Tang Zechen. In the meeting room, Mr. Wu handed the document over, "Mr. Li, this would be enough to make Tang Zechen pay." Li Han took it over to check. Indeed, as Wu Zhiyuan said, any one of the files could make Tang zechen suffer greatly. That might be the reason Li Han hadn''t done anything to him yet. What he wanted was never to make Tang Zechen killed, but to make him lose everything at once. He wanted to let him fall from the air into the abyss and lose any hope to get up. Especially thinking of what he had done to Shu Tian, he lost all his sympathy. "Get ready. Let''s make it happen." Wu Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief. This case had been in his hand for a long time and now he finally made some progress. he felt much rxed in a way, "Yes, Mr. Li." What Li Han didn''t expect was that Tang Zechen would touch his family. When receiving a call from his grandparents. Li Han and Shu Tian were going back home by car. During the conversation, he suddenly opened the door and got off, standing in the snow in a thin shirt. Shu Tian was worried. She wanted to hand over the coat. However, as soon as her hand touched the door, the central controlled lock was turned on. This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°click¡± She looked up at the man beside the car while he didn''t look back but took the phone to move away further. Shu Tian tightened her grip on the coat and frowned. [...] "Han, tell me what''s going on. Someone sent a bunch of photos to us today. Your grandpa and I were so upset about that. We didn''t know who did it. The photos were all of the naked people. And they were sent to you." Li Han''s face turned still suddenly. "What does the woman in the photo look like?" "ck hair, that was not particrly long, her face was not big... Oh, your grandfather and I didn''t check it carefully. It was too..." She couldn''t continue her sentence. It was too embarrassing. Although his grandma only said a few words, Li Han was almost sure that the person was Shu Tian. He pressed the tip of his tongue against the upper jaw. He crooked his head once and suddenly felt furious. "Keep the photos. I''ll get thatter." "Okay." She was worried. "Who is this person? Do you know her?" Li Han showed an extremely serious expression, "We''ll talk when I get back." [...] After that, he came back to restart the car without saying a word. Shu Tian saw his mood change in an obvious way and frowned more worryingly, "What''s wrong?" "Nothing." He answered quickly as if he didn''t want to talk. Seeing that, she didn''t ask again until they arrived home. The car stopped at the entrance. The lock was on and Li Han unbuckled her seatbelt. "You go back first. I have something to do. I won''t be backte." Shu Tian looked at him and couldn''t hold that anymore, "What happened exactly?" "It''s none of your business." Li Han was so upset that he said something hurtful. He did regret it after that. But obviously, he couldn''t take that back or find a way to exin. Shu Tian did not give him a chance either. She opened the door and got off stiffly. Seeing her leave, Li Han felt extremely upset and he was furious indeed and drove fast to the old house. The Imperial Vi and the old house were in the opposite direction. Even Li Han drove very fast, it still took him almost one hour. After a sharp noise. The car stopped and Li Han got off in a hurry and went in. The lights of the living room were on, and his grandparents sat on the mahogany sofa with a cup of tea since it might be toote for them. Seeing him, they handed him a cowhide envelope. "You came in such a hurry, have a look..." Li Han took it, just looked at one of them, he is face changed drastically. His fingers holding the photo tightened until it waspletely crumbled into a ball. He was so angry that he suddenly smiled. Using such a despicable way, Tang Zechen was really desperate. "Han, your grandpa and I were familiar with the girl. We did think over it. Isn''t she the one you have been with on News..." She said it in a very tactful and tentative tone. The uncertainty of her eyes indicated that she hoped that the girl in the photo was not her. Li Han could not hide it, nor did he know how to hide it. His attitude had given the answer. His grandparents looked at each other in shock. "Could she really be..." Before his grandma finished the sentence, her face turned serious, "Although your grandfather and I don''t require you to marry someone wealthy like you or being very outstanding. But you can''t be with her anymore. I heard that she had married before. You can''t be with her. Absolutely not!" As Tang Zechen had expected, the old was very conservative and would never ept his outstanding grandson being with a woman who had such experience. Besides, this photo is too... "The photo is fake. It''s not what you think. She''s a decent girl." Li Han didn''t know what else to say besides this. Hearing that he was still defending her, his grandpa became excited. "Even if the photo is fake, she had married before. Your grandma and I will never allow you to be together!" Li Han pursed his lips and said, "We''re already together." "You!" The old man pped the table. "Then you should break up. Since you were not married. You still have a chance. Anyway, your grandma and I will never agree!" After that, he started to cough due to his loud speech. Li Han had to stop since he was afraid that his grandparents could not stand the quarrel. He took the photo and said, "I am leaving." They could not stop him and could only watch him leave. However, they really worried that their grandson might be with the woman in the photos. "he''s in his early thirties. We could not change his mind." The old man snorted coldly, "I have to!" [...] When Li Han returned, it was alreadyte. He sat in the car and smoked a few cigarettes before getting off. He put the photo in the secretpartment. The lights in the bedroom were still on and Shu Tian was still awake. When she saw him walk in with a serious look, her body trembled, "You finallye back." While the man replied faintly and changed his clothes for a shower. The sound of water kept ringing. Shu Tian looked at the blurry figure through the ss in a mncholy way. He left without a word and came back like this and said it was nothing. Did he think she was a kid? Shu Tian was very upset, and she nced at his phone. Somehow, she couldn''t look away anymore. She was struggling with her curiosity. She tiptoed over and hesitated for a while, eventually she picked up his phone and pressed the unlock button... Chapter 105 Chapter 105 The phone screen was lit up. Shu Tian gritted her teeth and clicked on the call log. She saw two calls. The note of the calls was "Old Residence." The two calls were made just when he was driving home. Shu Tian paused and clicked in. It was a series of numbers on andline phone, which were obviously called from home. Old Residence? Was it the phone of his home? The two of them had been together for so long that she had never heard Li Han mention his family. The only thing she knew about him was what Ji Chuanyi had told her at that time. There was nothing else. People all had bad habits. There was always a moment when they had a great desire to know the private matters of those they cared about. Shu Tian was so lost in her thoughts that she didn''t even notice when the door behind her opened. When the phone in her hand was taken away, she froze in ce and couldn''t move. She didn''t even have time to lock the screen... Li Han looked at the phone records she had opened. He frowned deeply. There was no emotion sounded in his voice when he asked her, "What do you want to see, huh?" Shu Tian bit her lower lip and did not speak. She was nervous and embarrassed when she was discovered at first, now she was angry and grieved. Her emotions fluctuated several times in a few seconds, but in the end, she could not say a word. Li Han locked the phone again and threw it on the bed, "I''m asking you a question." There was a sense of questioning in his t voice and she recognized it. Shu Tian took a deep breath, turned around, and said in a low voice, "I... I just want to know who called you away because you didn''t tell me. But it seemed serious. I''m a little worried..." "So you checked my phone?" Li Han interrupted her and leaned back with his hands on the bed behind him. His long legs were crossed. Shu Tian''s eyelids trembled and her throat seemed to be blocked by cotton. "Do you know what you''re doing?" He continued to ask, even when he saw her eyes brimmed with tears gradually. Shu Tian knew it was her fault, but why didn''t he tell her? If he was willing to say it, she wouldn''t do that. "I just did it because I was worried about you. I didn''t mean anything else..." "What are you worried about?" Li Han rubbed his back teeth. In fact, he was also afraid that she would know the attitude of the two elders in his family. If so, the first progress they had made in their rtionship would be in vain. He was greedy. He still wanted to keep her by his side even when he hadn''t handled these connections well. Shu Tian''s hands tightened and tightened, and when she reached the limit of her strength, she suddenly stopped tightening her hands, "Li Han, you told me not to lie to you." She looked up and looked straight into his eyes, "What about you?" Li Han''s heart trembled at her question. His eyes met hers and no one spoke. After a long time, he finally said, "There are some things that are not convenient to tell you." "What?" Shu Tian pointed to the phone on the bed, "Business? Private matters? Or things in your family?" The man screwed up his narrow eyes and did not deny, "It is family matters." "Okay." Shu Tian looked at him and nodded with a smile. Without asking anything else, she turned around and walked out of the bedroom. With a tter, the door was closed, isting all sounds. Li Han raised his head and closed his eyes. He always got disturbed and uneasy when he thought of what the elder said. The photos could be hidden in the car. What about a person? Time would certainlye when he couldn''t hide it. [...] After sleeping in separate rooms for a night, the next morning when Li Han woke up, Shu Tian had already left early. It was less than six o''clock when he looked at the time. Li Han was immediately in no mood and went out without exercising for the first time. After returning to thepany, Li Han took the envelope from the car and handed it to Wu Zhiyuan, who was also stunned for a while when he saw the photo. But his good professional skills made him know that it was a photoshop when he saw the first one. "Add ''Threat'' to Tang Zechen''swsuit." Li Han''s hand knocked on the table twice, "Hurry up and let the court hear the verdict as soon as possible. I don''t have to emphasize again how to pursue awsuit, do I?" Wu Zhiyuan nodded hurriedly, "No, I understand what you mean." He wanted Tang Zechen to lose all his money, with his reputation ruined. The best result would be that Tang Zechen was despised by all in the J City, like a mouse walking on the street, which was chased and attacked by all who saw it. Mr. Wu watched Li Han walk out of the conference room and got sweat as he looked at the documents in his hands. Originally, it was just an ordinary divorce case, but now it was no longer so simple. The best result was probably to lose all the money. It might involve two years of imprisonment... Mr. Wu sighed silently. It was his fault for offending the wrong person. He could only pay a painful price. After thewsuit was officially processed, Mr. Wu immediately informed Shu Tian. After such a long time, Shu Tian had lost her momentum. When she heard the news, her mind was very peaceful, and she even sighed that the day had finallye. "Mr. Wu, do I have a high chance of winning this case?" Wu Zhiyuan raised his eyes above the bridge of his nose, "Miss Shu, don''t worry. The winning rate is 100%. The difference is that will the punishment of the defendant be major or minor." Shu Tian paused and then asked, "Will the sentence be heavy?" Mr. Wu nodded. "Maybe." Shu Tian knew that Tang Zechen could not get away this time. But she did not intend to plead for him. He crossed the line too seriously and had killed her love initially, then he destroyed her family bond. Finally, even herst trace of sympathy was exhausted. She had no more feelings to waste on this man. After returning to the office, Shu Tian had been distracted and made many small mistakes at work. Zhang Rui''er leaned over to her ear and asked, "What''s wrong? Did you quarrel with Mr. Li?" Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. Shu Tian was a little surprised, "Am I so obvious?" "Uh... It''s a little obvious." Zhang Rui''er didn''t ask much about the two of them. She justforted her and went back to her post. Shu Tian thought about it and thought about it again. She was so struggling that she med Li Han as she reviewed herself. She was about to lose control of herself. She couldn''t help texting Fu Qingtong and telling her the whole story. Fu Qingtong advised her, "If you want my opinion, I will say that men don''t like women checking their phones. It''s privacy after all. If you do that, you will ruin the basic trust between you two. You have indeed crossed the line. But speaking of this, he also has the responsibility. Just say what he has to say. If he did something secretly and does not want to tell, anyone will be curious." Shu Tian echoed, "Yes, I didn''t mean to do it." "But it''s also possible that his family''s affairs areplicated. It''s not easy to say. Don''t push him too hard. Anyway, as long as he does not mess around with other women." It had to be said that Fu Qingtong''s words touched Shu Tian''s heart. But after thinking about it, she became even more struggled. She didn''t think she was wrong about this, but Li Han seemed to be right too. Nevertheless, she really didn''t like the way he kept everything from her, which seemed as if she was an outsider. Shu Tian was still troubled by this even when it was time to get off work. On the other hand, because of some minor mistakes that she made in her work, Wei Xiangming called her over and criticized her. When Shu Tian was on her way to go home after work, she didn''t wait for Li Han. She walked to the subway station with her bag on her back. Imperial Vi was far from the city district, and she needed to take two subway lines to get home. It was almost eight o''clock when she got home. Shu Tian changed into her ts at the door. She was in a bad mood and felt dizzy. She copsed on the sofa in the living room. Not long after, Li Han came down from the third floor. But instead of looking for her, he took a bottle of espresso from the fridge and it seemed that he wanted to refresh himself. Shu Tian watched as he walked down and up. He even did not even nce at her. She punched the air angrily. Okay, he was ignoring her, right? Let''s see who was more stubborn! Chapter 106 Chapter 106 The cold war began very suddenly. Shu Tian had not gone back to bedroom to sleep since the day she checked his phone and was found by him. She had lived in the guest room next to the master bedroom. However, Li Han, who had been waiting for her period to end, did not do anything, as if he had no time to care her. In fact, he was really busy. He had to deal with Tang Zechen and her divorce case. He was a little troubled, but Shu Tian didn''t know about it. She thought he was angry that she checked his phone that night. Except for meeting him once a week during the conference in thepany, it was an extravagant hope to see him at other times. At home, they were busy with their own things. He usually stayed in the study until early morning and did not show up at all. One night, Shu Tian knew that he was not asleep yet. When she made midnight snack, she only made noodles for herself. When she saw that he came down, she pretended to eat well. However, the man just nced at her and said, "Keep your voice down. It''s too noisy." Shu Tian was so angry that she almost choked on the noodles. There was nothing she could do to him. She was just angry. But she was a little listless gradually. She was like a frosted eggnt and couldn''t lift her spirits. This situationsted for nearly a week until the day of the divorce trial. The strong man actually fell ill that day. Shu Tian didn''t know it at first. She wanted to use thewsuit as an excuse to talk to him, but no one answered after she knocked on the door for a long time. She turned the doorknob and opened it. The bedroom was quiet, the curtains were tightly drawn, and the man on the bed was wrapped in a dark quilt, revealing only a head and a strong arm. Shu Tian looked at the time. It was 10: 30 in the morning. Although there was a trial toady and they didn''t have to go to thepany this morning, why did he sleep in? After spending so much time together, Shu Tian had never seen Li Han get upter than eight o''clock. "Li Han?" She called him tentatively. The person lying on the bed did not move. She called again, and she still didn''t get any response. Shu Tian frowned and finally realized something was wrong. She walked lightly to his bed. Half his face was wrapped in the quilt, and nothing could be seen. She reached out and pushed his shoulder, raising her voice, "Li Han?" This time, he finally moved and turned his back to her. His voice was extremely hoarse and sounded terrible, "Get out." This voice... Shu Tian''s heart sank, and she did not care about anything else. She stepped forward and put her hand on his forehead. She suddenly felt the burning temperature, which was frighteningly high. "You have a fever?" Shu Tian knelt by the bed and pulled the quilt down a little forcibly. His face was very pale and his breathing was heavy, "Go to the hospital. You must have a high fever now." The man finally lifted his eyelids, his clear ck and white eyes full of fatigue, "I ask you to go out." "I won''t go out!" Shu Tian was also angry about what he said. She was worried and anxious, "How can you bear up? Just go to the hospital and get an injection." After that, Shu Tian suddenly thought of Ling Junze, "Why don''t I call Doctor Ling here?" "No." His voice was muffled as if he was annoyed by her. He pointed to the medicine box in the cab This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. next to him, "Give me the medicine." Shu Tian quickly went over to get it, found out the antipyretic and thermometer, fed him the medicine and took his temperature. It was more than 39 degrees celsius, "If you can''t get the fever downter, you should go to the hospital." Li Han answered perfunctorily, closing his eyes wearily and continuing to sleep. Thinking that he had been working sote in the study every night during this period, Shu Tian was not feeling well either and felt bitter. How tired should a strong person be to fall ill? He was always so indestructible in front of people that even she almost thought that this man would not get sick. But without those gorgeous and noble identities, he was just an ordinary person. If he didn''t eat, he would be hungry, and if he was sick, he would feel ufortable. Shu Tian took a wet towel and put it on his forehead. Fortunately, after an hour, the temperature dropped to 38 degrees celsius. She stayed by his side until Mr. Wu called her. Shu Tian picked up the phone in the hallway outside. As soon as she answered the phone, she heard Mr. Wu''s excited voice, "Miss Shu, congrattions. You have won in the first trial of the case." Hearing this news, Shu Tian was stunned for a long time. After waiting for so long and preparing for so long, she finally got a result. Her five fingers holding the phone unconsciously exerted force, and even trembled slightly. "Fifty percent of yourmon property will be under your name, including movable property and real estate, as well as your husband''s various investments and financial management. As for other judgments on reputation infringement and threats, Tang Zechen has to pay you more than 1.2 million yuan in all kinds of damages." Mr. Wu told Shu Tian the verdict, "Of course, Tang Zechen will appeal, but his chances of sess are slim." Shu Tian let out a long sigh of relief, "Okay, I see." "The details have to be discussed in person. If the appeal is rejectedter, ites to property division. We need your cooperation at that time." Shu Tian nodded, "Thank you, Mr. Wu." This kind of judgment was almost a devastating blow to the Tang family. What Liu Lifang and Tang Guofeng were most afraid of happened. Most of the assets of the Tang family were under the name of Tang Zechen. At that time, the Tang family did not dare to notarize all their premarital assets given that Shu Tian''s father was an influential official. Fifty percent of the property was enough to destroy the Tang family. They would be desperate. Thinking of this, Shu Tian called Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei to prevent idents, "Mom, dad, you should be careful recently. You''d better move to a hotel for a period of time. I won thewsuit. I think the Tang family will pick on you." Hearing the news, both of them were very excited, "Okay, your father and I will do as you said. As for us, wining thewsuit is more important than anything else!" After hanging up the phone, Shu Tian found that the corner of her eye was already wet. She didn''t want to cry, but she couldn''t control her emotions. She raised her hand to wipe the corner of her eye and didn''t forget the man in the bedroom who had a high fever. However, the moment she turned around, she stood rooted to the spot. Li Han stood behind her at some point. He was two steps away from her and could hear all the conversation. "Did you win the case?" The man''s voice was hoarse. Shu Tian nodded and walked towards him, "Lie down. You still have a fever." It was rare for Li Han to be obedient. He walked into the bedroom andy down, watching her carefully cover him with the quilt. Her thin lips moved slightly, "Congrattions, you got what you wanted." Shu Tian looked at his sickly face and had a lot to say, but she knew it was not the right time. She should wait his fever to subside before she told him, so she said, "Go to sleep." Li Han was indeed tired and soon fell asleep after closing his eyes. Shu Tian sat by the bed and looked at him. She changed the towel on his forehead and took his temperature again. After making sure that his temperature didn''t continue to rise, she was relieved. Buzz-- The phone at the bedside vibrated violently. Shu Tian frowned, afraid of waking Li Han up. She reached out and picked it up. Her fingertips identally touched the answer button. Just as she was about to hang up, she heard an old and powerful voice, "Don''t think you can escape without answering the phone. I saw on the news that the woman was divorced. I told you that even if she was divorced, we wouldn''t allow you to be together!" Shu Tian''s fingers, which were about to press the hang up button, paused and her eyes fell on the caller ID, Old Residence. Chapter 107 Chapter 107 The voice from the phone was not young. It was probably his elder, and what he said indicated that he was against them being together. "Hello? Han, did you hear me? Your grandma and I don''t approve of you two being together. Although we all hope that you can find someone to live a stable life, you can''t marry her! Our family doesn''t have high expectations, but you can''t marry a divorced woman. Do you understand?!" The old man was saying and his words were like a dagger piercing Shu Tian''s heart. "I''ve seen those photos with your grandmother, and they don''t look fake. The woman must have been indecent. Otherwise, how could she get a divorce? It takes two to tangle. Don''t be so obsessed with her!" Shu Tian felt that she didn''t have the strength to hold the phone anymore. She felt that someone had ripped off herst piece of cover and she could find nowhere to hide. So that''s why he didn''t tell her? When she came back to her senses, she hung up the phone immediately. She didn''t dare to dy a second, afraid that she would hear something else she couldn''t bear from the old man. After putting down the phone, Shu Tian ran away from the bedroom. She closed the door closed and leaned against the wall of the corridor. She felt so desperate and didn''t know what to do. She remembered that he answered the phone so anxiously that day, afraid that she would hear him, and then rushed home. He did these because his family knew about their rtionship. When Shu Tian thought of the photo that the old man had just mentioned, she was a little confused. Did he mean her photo on the Inte or something else? Whatever the photo, the old man''s attitude had been very firm. He thought she was an indecent woman who got divorced. Shu Tian bit her lower lip when she thought of the words and remembered what Shu Changlei had told her when she found out that Tang Zechen was cheating. "Do you know what a woman will face when she gets divorced? " Now she knew that those cruel and cold problems Shu Changlei had asked her were reality. In today''s society, women seemed to have to be med for divorce, even if she was the victim of the marriage. The biggest ''forgiveness'' in other people''s mouths was: It took two to tangle. Nobody wanted to see an outstanding man like Li Han with a divorced woman. Shu Tian understood, but she didn''t do anything wrong... She didn''t even know what to do to stop others'' prejudice against her. Because it seemed useless to do anything... Just as Shu Tian was thinking about it, the phone in her pocket rang. It was a strange number, but the person who could call her so urgently at this time was none other than the Tang family. She hesitated for a moment but answered it, afraid that he would make trouble of Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei. "Shu Tian, what do you want!" The man''s furious voice roared out, making Shu Tian''s ear hurt. "Me?" Shu Tian shuddered as if she had been pulled out of cold water, "You deserve all the sufferings. These are your bted retributions." Until now, he still did not feel remorse but kept using and scolding endlessly. Of course, she now understood that she couldn''t expect Tang Zechen to realize his mistake at all. "You''re cheating on our marriage. How can you take half of the Tang family''s assets after we married for over a year? You''re crazy..." "Then sue me." Shu Tian was so disgusted that she didn''t even have the patience to listen to him, "The court has pronounced the divorce case between us, so from now on we are strangers. You don''t have to tell me this anymore. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can appeal as you want." Tang Zechen seemed to be shocked by her resolute attitude. He kept silent for a few seconds, then suddenlyughed as if he was crazy, "Hahaha, do you think you can be Mrs. Li after divorcing me? You''re daydreaming! The Li family probably havee to you, right?" Shu Tian didn''t listen to what he said until he said "Li family." How did he know? Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat and her brows furrowed. She stood straight in shock and her voice tightened, "You''re the one who did this!" Tang Zechen snorted, "Then why did the Li family suddenlye to you?" He didn''t know that his n was stopped by Li Han and was still smug, "I have a lot of things that can make the Li family disgust you, so it''s not good for you to force me." Hearing his words and thinking of the old man''s words on the phone just now, Shu Tian gradually understood, "Did you send my photo to Li Han''s Old Residence?" "So what?" Tang Zechen admitted bluntly, shamelessly and hatefully, "You forced me. Do you think I''ll let you go if I can''t live a good life? If you insist on splitting up Tang family''s assets, then this is just the beginning!" "You!" Shu Tian was out of breath. Her chest heaved violently because of her emotions. What could she do? What else could she do with such a shameless, indifferent scoundrel like Tang Zechen? After a moment of silence, Shu Tian''s fingers turned cold, "Tang Zechen, you have lost a lot now. If you continue to do this, you will only lose more." "Haha!" Tang Zechen seemed to have heard a joke, "Anyway, I''m notorious now. I don''t care! I don''t have anything to lose even if I gamble with you! But don''t you worry about the Li family will..." Beep, beep, beep... Before Tang Zechen could finish speaking, Shu Tian had already hung up the phone in a hurry. She hated his voice, everything about him, and herself who had fallen in love with him regardless of everything. She was so stupid to fall in love with such a bastard. She was so awkward about what happened now. Her affection for him when she was young had even be the weapon that he used to attack her. ''Buzz.'' The phone vibrated twice. It was a text message from the number just now. Shu Tian took a deep breath and read it. She stared at the photos in the text message. These photos were so unsightly and she was so familiar with the one in the photos. Everything around her seemed to be at a standstill, and even her breathing was gone. Half a minuteter, Shu Tian slid down the wall, curled up at the base of the wall, and burst into tears with her hands on her knees. She suppressed the sad cry deep in her throat and was afraid the man in the room who was sick would hear it. Tears came out of her eyes. She did not expect what would happen after winning the case. What she was most afraid of was the non-stop revenge of Tang Zechen and the Tang family. What she was most worried about was still happening. Her previous marriage was like a piece of ster on her body, and she didn''t know how to get rid of it. Could she get rid of it? Even if she could, it may take three years, five years, ten years, or even longer. No one would wait for her, including Li Han. Property ? N?velDrama.Org. At this moment, Shu Tianpletely lost confidence in herself. She even thought that it would be better if she were still the one who only wanted to win thewsuit. But it had already happened. She fell in love with Li Han, so she suffered. Chapter 108 Chapter 108 Shu Tian almost drowned in bitter tears. Her heart was pounding violently with a sharp pain. She felt panicking and helpless, especially when she saw the photos on the phone that were like thest straw for her. She had never done these things before. But nobody would believe in her exnation, except Li Han. Therefore, Li Han hid everything from her, because he wanted to solve it by himself. However, besides bringing endless pressure to himself, his approach didn''t work at all. The Li family would not believe her, nor would the public do. She didn''t want to make any bad impact on his family, career or reputation. As Shu Tian was crying, a slight sound came near her. Before wiping her tears from her cheeks, she instantly stood up and turned her back with a seized heart. It wasn''t until the man stood behind her that he stopped his footsteps approaching. He put his hands on her shoulder gently. A few secondster, he increased the strength. Shu Tian''s body got extremely stiff. She raised hands to wipe her face in a hurry and tried to make her voice sounded stead. "I''m going downstairs to make a meal for you. You may go back to the bedroom first..." "Shu Tian, look at me." Maybe it was the fever that made his voice sounded hoarse. Thinking of the attitude of his family, Shu Tian didn''t know how to face him at all. Now she was... really embarrassed. Feeling Shu Tian''s resistance, Li Han could only force her to turn around. As expected, he saw a pair of red eyes and pale lips. They faced each other in the quiet air for a few minutes. Every second was a great torture for Shu Tian. After a long time, the man caressed her cheek with his big palm and wiped away her tears. His voice was gentle. "Why crying?" Shu Tian guessed he might not hear the conversation between she and Tang Zechen, so she shook her head. "Nothing. Just got mixed feelings for the victory for the winning trial." "You feel unhappy?" "No..." Shu Tian opened her mouth, but no matter how she tried she couldn''t lie about her emotion, she wasn''t "happy" at all. Just as she was in a trance, her phone was suddenly snayched by Li Han. Although she subconsciously grasped it tightly, it was still toote. Li Han had already held her phone in his hand. "Return it to me!" Shu Tian tried to get the phone back. However, he had an innate height advantage, so that she could hardly touch the phone at all. He checked all the photos, text messages, and call records with an unusually calme expression, which made Shu Tian''s breath wasing in short bursts. He locked the phone and handed it back to her. "You''re crying for this?" Shu Tian exhaled sloghtly and gave a reluctant and fragile smile, "I don''t want to talk about this with you. I... just feel embarrassed." Her words were like pebbles that made ripples to cut the calmness on his face. He reached out to stop her trembling shoulder and asked in a low voice, "Why embarrassed?" "I don''t want you to be in a dilemma because of me. I don''t me anyone. It''s all my fault. It is me who chose thest marriage myself. Even if being misunderstood, I have no right toin..." Shu Tian shook his head and almost finished speaking in a choked voice. Under the disguise of strength, there was that extremely sensitive and fragile heart. She was afraid that Li Han would hurt her heart, so she surrendered first. "So? Do you want to leave me, or stay by my side?" Li Han''s eyes and mind were upied with this delicate woman. He asked this question in a calm voice, however, somewhere deep beneath the calmnessy an anxious soul. Shu Tian''s felt that her heart was hung in the air, as countless thoughts shed through and disappeared in her mind. In the end, she threw the question back to him, "Can I stay by your side?" Li Han felt his heart being held tightly by something, which caused the pain made him wrinkled. Her cautious tone and her veiled expectance both broke his heart in a cruel way. He did not answer with words. Instead, he leaned down slightly with his darkening eyes. At this moment, words were weak. At this moment, he decided to answer with a kiss, with unusual fervour. Shu Tian was almost melted in the kiss, so did the armor that imprisoned her. She knew how much she loved this man. Did she want to stay by his side? Absolutely... Definitely... Li Han felt much more satisfied with the slight flush on her cheeks, "Whether you like it or not, I won''t let you go." "But your family..." "They don''t know you. They don''t know me. They don''t have the right to meddle in things between you and me." This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. Shu Tian knew that he had the ability to choose the life he wanted. But she didn''t want Li Han to quarrel with his family because of her. It seemed that Li Han could read her mind, he lifted her chin and looked straight into her eyes, "Shu Tian, trust me. I can handle everything. Just stay by my side." Shu Tian was intensely hesitated, "Of course, I will believe you. I just can''t believe myself." "This is the biggest trouble Tang Zechen can make. You don''t have to worry too much." Li Han didn''t want to tell her about this before, but when he saw that she was really flustered, he exined, "Those photos have a limited impact. My family will understand. They just need time." "Will they understand? Even I myself..." "They will." Li Han stopped her question by warping her with his arms. "Because I''m here." After that, he let go of Shu Tian and went downstairs under her puzzled gaze. When he came back, he had a cup of hot milk in his hand. "Drink it, milk will calm you down." Shu Tian took it. Li Han was still in his nightgown with his cor open. The heat of the skin reminded Shu Tian of his fever. She immediately pushed him into the room and measured his temperature with a thermometer. It was 38.20 degrees celsius. Thank God, it didn''t get higher. Shu Tian wanted to change another towel for him. But Li Han wrapped her hand with his big palm and let her sit down upon his legs, with his hairs hung all over his forehead. "Stay here with me, please." Shu Tian looked at him without any reaction. Li Han sighedl, and carried her to the bed. The quilt was oozing with the fragrance of Shu Tian, which made him rxed in an instant. Shu Tian still wanted to continue the conversation, "Li Han..." "Shh, let me sleep for a while. Let''s talk about it when waking up." He gave a kiss and immediately closed his eyes, looked really tired. Shu Tian couldn''t bear to disturb him. The bedroom was in a silence. Looking at his handsome face with all kinds of thoughts in her mind. The silence and the various thoughts made her sleepy and finally sent her to sleep. A second after she fell asleep, Li Han immediately opened his eyes, as heard her steady breathing. The warm tenderness in his eyes had been reced by horrible coldness. He gently pulled his arm away from her neck to avoid waking her up. Then, he opened the door and left the bedroom before changing his clothes. Chapter 109 Chapter 109 [At 11: 00 noon, in the president''s office of BY Technology] Tang Guofeng had just finished the meeting and walked out of the conference room. Recently, Tang Zechen''s scandal had affected the operation of thepany. Many old businessmen who had worked with thepany for many years asked forpensation or termination of the partnership. In order to ease the tension, Tang Guofeng organized this meeting. Tang Guofeng called upon BY Technology''s cooperation partners over the years. Fortunately, the meeting went on smoothly and the partners were calmed down. Seeing this, Tang Guofeng finally breathed a sigh of relief. All in shirts and suits, they reached the door. Tang Guofeng smiled and sent them to the door of the As Tang Guofeng shook their hands, he promised, "President Shen, President Wu, don''t worry. No matter what happened, with the history of BY Technology being over more than 20 years, we can''t be destroyed by one incident. There is a temporary impact, but I can guarantee that your interests will not be affected." "Mr. Tang, it''s not that we don''t trust you given that we''ve worked together for so many years. But you should have provoked the boss of the HY Law Office. Everyone will be scared by that! ?" Tang Guofeng had a smile on his face, but in fact, he was scolding President Shen severely in his heart. " President Shen, I know that I''ve made a mistake. But I''ve been finding a solution through As soon as Tang Guofeng finished speaking, the elevator outside the BY Technology opened. A tall figure walked out of the elevator and straight into the door of BY Technology. Looking in the direction, everyone froze in ce. Even Tang Guofeng did note to his senses. He watched the man walk over quickly and stop in front of him. This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. The crowd was quiet for five seconds until one of them came to his senses. He quickly stepped forward and reached out his hand. "Mr. Li, I''ve been looking forward to seeing you. Nice to meet you. I''m Liu Wei from L&S. Why do youe here today?" Li Han just nced at the man and his outstretched hand, without holding it. Li Han nodded his head in response. The man could only retract his hand embarrassedly and continued to exchange pleasant tries awkwardly and fawningly. Li Han looked at Tang Guofeng, who was more than fifty years old, ugly. Tang Guofeng looked mean and cunning and didn''t seem to be a loyal person. Therefore, it was not hard to understand why Shu Tian was so miserable in the Tang family. If the upper beam was not straight, the lower beam would be crooked. Looking into Li Han''s eyes, Tang Guofeng unconsciously became frightened. Li Han seemed to have seen through him, making Tang Guofeng afraid. It was not a good thing that Li Han came over at this juncture... Tang Guofeng''s eyes flickered and he said hypocritically, "Hello, Mr. Li. Why didn''t you tell me about youring? Excuse me for not going out to meet you..." With that, Tang Guofeng tilted his head back and nced at the empty corridor behind him. Li Han put his hands in his pockets, not looking very polite. "Don''t have to do that. I came by myself." After Tang Guofeng''s intention was discovered, he shrugged his shoulder in awkward. "No, no, no. Mr. Li. You''ve misunderstood me." Li Han didn''t care what Tang Guofeng thought or said at all. Looking around the front desk and the door of BY Technology, Li Han finally looked at a young and beautiful receptionist. "Are you interested in working for HY Law Officer?" The receptionist was shocked. She couldn''t believe that the boss of the HY Law Office had just spoken to her, asking her if she wanted to work for him. She immediately blushed shyly. However, Tang Guofeng was present, so she didn''t dare to say anything. After all, her one month''s sry was still deposited in thepany. Li Han didn''t seem to want to hear her answer either. He was satisfied to see Tang Guofeng and the bosses of otherpanies change their expressions. Tang Guofeng was unable to wear the smile. "Mr. Li, that''s not funny..." "I''m not joking with you." After Li Han said this, he suddenly felt his throat so itchy that he wanted to cough. He paused for a moment, trying his best to restrain the cough. "Shall I speak here or do you want me to talk with you privately?" Li Han made it clear to everyone present that he wasing to settle the score and warn BY Technology partners not to cooperate with BY Technology. In this way, BY Technology would lose its work partners. When those bosses who had intended to terminate their cooperations with BY Technology saw Mr. Li''s attitude, they said goodbyes and then left. Even very displeased, Tang Guofeng did not dare to show his emotion and walked into the president''s office with Li Han. When the high-quality Pu''er was brewed, the tea''s fragrance was released. Unfortunately, the drinker was not in the mood to appreciate it. Tang Guofeng looked nervously at the man sitting opposite the sofa. It was more difficult for him to find out something under Li Han''s calm face. Li Han, who had a high fever, was trying his best to calm himself down. He tapped his long finger on the sofa a few times and finally said, "I heard that Tang Zechen is still pestering Shu Tian. As Shu Tian''s father, do you know that?" With a sentence, Li Han had already exined the purpose of his visit. Tang Guofeng was in a dilemma but he finally admitted it. "Zechen is still a kid. If he did something wrong, I hope you can give him a chance. I will tell him to change his behavior." "I want to give you a chance." Li Han''s eyes fell on the teacup and his tone was just right. "But unfortunately, he went to my family and made a scene, which made me a little embarrassed... " Tang Guofeng''s hand, which was holding the teacup, trembled and a trace of panic shed through his eyes. However, as an experienced person in business, Tang Guofeng quickly regained hisposure, "Zechen made a scene in front of Old Master Li? I really don''t know that. Otherwise, I would have definitely stopped him!" Li Han could tell that Tang Guofeng really didn''t know about that, but he didn''t forgive Tang Guofeng at all. "For me, your son has already made the trouble no matter you knew about it or not. I''m here to tell you that if you still want to run BY Technology, don''t bother Shu Tian anymore." Tang Guofeng put down the teacup andughed embarrassedly. The atmosphere became a little gloomy. Finally, he said tentatively, "Mr. Li, don''t take it so seriously. We''re businessmen. It doesn''t worth giving up our rtion for the sake of love. I''ll definitely go back to warn Zechen. Don''t worry about that. I won''t do anything out of line. I promise you." Tang Guofeng said those in respect, but in fact, he was ying word games with Li Han. Instead of Tang Guofeng''s own guarantee, What Li Han wanted was that the Tang family stop troubling Shu Tian. "That all I want to say. With your words being like this, don''t me for going too far." Li Han didn''t take Tang Guofeng''s words seriously at all. Li Han got up and was about to leave. When he stood up from the sofa, his tall figure swayed because of fever, but Li Han managed to have bnced himself. Tang Guofeng also got up, looked worried. "Mr. Li!" Li Han paused and looked down at the short man in front of him with his eyes bing sharper and sharper. Tang Guofeng gritted his teeth. "Okay, I promise you, our family will never trouble Shu Tian again!" "But -!" At this point, Tang Guofeng paused again. "Mr. Li, you know that Shu Tian has taken away half of our family''s property. I don''t need to mention what kind of role do the HY Law Office and you y in this. You and I are clear about that. You can''t let us suffer the unspoken grievances..." "Unspoken grievances?" Li Han nced at his dissatisfied expression. "You''re not clear it is an unspoken grievance or a well-deserved punishment?" Tang Guofeng''s hypocritical smile finally stopped, and her lips trembled. "Mr. Li, what do you want us to do?" Only then did reveal his sternness and threat in his eyes clearly to Tang Guofeng, "I want the people from Tang family to never appear in Shu Tian''s sight again. Even if it''s just a coincidence that you meet her, take a detour. Once I know that you harm her, I''ll take BY Technology away." At this point, Li Han made clear his purpose. Tang Guofeng narrowed his eyes. "Are you so sure that you can take mypany away?" However, Li Han smiled faintly, which was frightening. "Thepany''s ounts will be enough for me to take it away." Tang Guofeng felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He supported the back of the sofa to stand still. Looking at the man in front of him, Tang Guofeng''s back was drenched in a cold sweat. He had a hunch that if he didn''t stop, thepany would one day see its owner changed. Chapter 110 Chapter 110 It was already 12:30 p.m. when Shu Tian woke up, and she was starving since she didn''t have breakfast. Opening her eyes, Shu Tian noticed that Li Han had already left, and there was also no lingering warmth on her side. Where was he? Shu Tian put on her shoes, got out of bed, and searched for him floor by floor. However, he was not there. Thinking that Li Han had a high fever, Shu Tian inevitably worried so she called him. After a few beeps, Li Han answered her phone. His voice was even more hoarse, "Are you awake?" "Yes. Where have you been?" Li Han nced at the time on the dashboard, and his feet stamped down on the elerator, "I''m in the middle of work." "Work?" Shu Tian frowned. "You''re feverish. How could you go out for work?" "It''s about thepany." "Where are you now?" Shu Tian said as she put on her clothes. "Do you need me to pick you up?" "I''m already on my way. Wait for me at home." Li Han was afraid that she would go find him, so he gave her an originally unnecessary order, "Make some porridge for me." "Porridge..." Shu Tian made her way into the kitchen and opened the fridge. She scanned the ingredients inside, asking, "What porridge do you want?" In fact, Li Han didn''t want porridge or anything else now because he was totally under the weather. He only wanted to lie down resting. So he vaguely said, "Porridge with shredded chicken and mushroom." "Okay, I''ll cook it now. You''ll be able to eat when youe back." Shu Tian was worried about him and repeatedly asked him to be careful, "Do you drive by yourself?" "Yes." "Drive slowly and carefully..." "I see." The man''s helpless but indulgent voice interrupted her nagging. "I''ll be back soon. Don''t worry, okay?" Shu Tian nodded, "Okay. See you at home." [...] Forty minutester, Li Han''s Bentley Bentayga drove into the Imperial Vi. He parked the car, wrenched the door open, and walked towards the vi, emanating coldness. He pressed his finger against the fingerprint lock, and the door opened with a beep. As soon as he entered, the aroma drifted towards him from the kitchen not far away. "You''re back?" Shu Tian asked in the kitchen, rushing out with a blue and white checked apron. Her hair was loosely coiled behind her head, and a few tendrils of hair escaped, hanging around her neck. It made her look even softer. Li Han felt that all his anger was gone when he saw her face. He changed his shoes and his tall figure staggered a step forward. Shu Tian walked towards him, feeling his forehead on tiptoe. She cried out in shock. "You..." His body temperature was so high that he could fry an egg himself. Li Han pulled off her hand and wanted to hug her, but Shu Tian dodged. Without any hesitation, she took the phone on the table and called Ling Junze in an overbearing manner. "Doctor Ling, Li Han''s high fever can''t be brought down. Could you pleasee over and take a look?" Ling Junze''s hand, which was rubbing his neck, paused. "He still has a high fever now? What did he do?" Shu Tian nced at Li Han who walked straight into the kitchen. "I don''t know. I guess he''s been too tired recently and hasn''t rested well." "It might be the inmmatory reaction." Ling Junze sighed silently. "I''ming. Let him lie down and rest first. Don''t worry. It''s not serious." "Okay, thank you." "You''re wee." After hanging up the phone, Shu Tian went straight to the kitchen for Li Han. Seeing the man who ate secretly with a spoon, Shu Tian felt a little gloomy. "Go upstairs and rest. Doctor Ling''sing." Li Han hated it when others meddled in his affairs, but he never had such negative feelings while facing Shu Tian. Even if she called Ling Junze without asking him before, Li Han didn''t feel dissatisfied. He was so patient and indulgent that even himself was surprised. "Help me." Li Han, who was about 1.8 meters tall, acted cute naturally. Shu Tian looked at his pink face caused by his high fever. For a moment, her heart softened. She walked over and helped him to the second floor. She didn''t know if this man did it on purpose or not. His arms were brushing her back from time to time. Shu Tian nced at him a few times, and he looked calm and gentlemanly. They were finally at the bedroom, Shu Tian had to coax him into changing his clothes. Li Hany on the bed, looking at the little woman who was taking care of him. His heart was filled with warmth, and he grabbed her wrist. "You don''t have to worry about the Tang family. I''ll deal with them for This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. you." Shu Tian''s eyes lit up, and she looked at him without saying anything. "Shu Tian, there''s one thing you must believe in firmly..." The man''s tone was firm. "Always be my side." He was strong and powerful enough so that he could always shelter her, but he was afraid of one thing. That was, his persistence couldn''t gain her favour. In that way, everything he did was meaningless. Shu Tian clearly saw the persistence in his eyes and was extremely moved. Yes, he had already treated her so sincerely. How could she recoil? What he wanted was not her understanding, but her apany. Shu Tian was touched, holding the man''s big palm with her small hand. Her strength was not much but her firmness couldn''t be ignored. "I will." She would stay by his side until the day he wanted her to leave. [...] Ling Junze came over after attending an academic seminar. Since he did not have time to be back to Ling''s Hospital, Tian Sangsang came with him. Shu Tian had a good impression of Tian Sangsang. Naturally, she was willing to entertain her warmly. The door was pushed open, and a gloomy aura rushed towards Ling Junze. He walked to the bedside, hung up the infusion set, and then took Li Han''s temperature. Ling Junze nced at him, "38.9¡æ. Good for you." Li Han heard the disturbing voice and opened his eyes wearily. "Do doctors talk as much as you?" "Tsk!" While Ling Junze was speaking, he had already dispensed medicine. "I talk much because I''m worrying about you. Understand?" The needle cap was pulled out and the air inside was pushed out. The head of the thin needle was inserted into Li Han''s vein. After the bright red blood flowed back, Ling Junze let go of the syringe. The light yellow liquid dripped down at rtively slow speed. Ling Junze fixed the needle and then asked Li Han, "Shu Tian said you went out just now. What was so urgent?" Li Hanpressed his slightly dry lips. "I went to see Tang Guofeng." "Tang Guofeng?" Ling Junze was not familiar with the name. "Tang Zechen''s father." "Oh, I see... But you could leave this to your subordinates. Why did you go personally? You are having a fever. You indeed treat her with all your heart." For Ling Junze and Li Han, Tang Zechen and Tang Guofeng were just a nobody. Although what Ling Junze said was true, Li Han thought Ling Junze had a sharp tongue, feeling that Ling Junze came to make his mood worse on purpose. "You can go if you have nothing else yo do." Li Han ordered Ling Junze to leave in a bad mood. Ling Junze raised his eyebrows, and did not bother to quarrel with a patient. Just as Ling Junze was packing his medicine box, someone knocked on the bedroom door. After getting permission, the door was pushed opened. Tian Sangsang walked in and handed the phone to Ling Junze. "Director Ling, Miss Shu wants me to ask you if Li Han can eat these." Ling Junze paused and wanted to roll his eyes, but he held back. "He can''t eat this... And this." "Okay, then I''ll tell her." As Tian Sangsang spoke, she turned around, intending to leave. Just as she reached the door, Li Han suddenly called out to her, "Miss Tian." Tian Sangsang paused, turned around, and pointed at herself suspiciously. "Are you calling me?" "Yes." On the bed, Li Han sat up straight slightly. His gaze drifted across Ling Junze''s face meaningfully and looked back at Tian Sangsang. "Though Director Ling has never been in a rtionship, he''s very interested in you." WTF?! Hearing it, both Ling Junze and Tian Sangsang''s mouths dropped open in shock, especially Ling Junze. "What are you talking about?" When did he be interested in this girl? Why didn''t he know? Li Han didn''t even look at Ling Junze, but said to Tian Sangsang, "He''s bad at expressing his feelings, but I''m d you know it now. See you." Tian Sangsang''s mind went nk and she even forgot to close the door when she left. What Li Han said drove Ling Junze crazy. Ling Junze really regretted giving Li Han an injection. He should have burned Li Han to death! He should have burned Li Han into a vegetative state with brain disease, so that Li Han would suffer! "Why are you looking at me?" Li Hany down and closed his eyes. His calm provoked Ling Junze, making Ling Junze re up. "It you were not taken with her, you wouldn''t bring her here." Chapter 111 Chapter 111 Aftering down from the second floor, Ling Junze walked straight out of the gate of the Imperial Vi without even drinking a ss of water. Tian Sangsang hurriedly put on her coat to follow behind and finally sat in the car the second before the car was started. Ling Junze stepped on the elerator and the car ran out of the yard and into the main road all of a sudden. The speed of the car was very fast, just like Tian Sangsang''s heartbeat, getting faster and faster. She unconsciously nced at the man next to her from the corner of her eye. Although she knew that Ling Junze had never been as innocent as he looked, he would definitely not show his expression on his face. It was the first time she had seen him being so angry. After thinking for a while, she felt that she should say something. "Director Ling, where are we going now?" The man who was driving did not even move his eyeball when the woman''s clear voice rang in his ear. "Back to the hospital." His tone was very impatient. His expression was even more impatient than his tone. He seemed to be saying, "Wasn''t that nonsense?" Tian Sangsang pretended to cough and rubbed her nose awkwardly. "Director Ling, don''t worry. I won''t take it seriously." "What?" Tian Sangsang looked a little unnatural and stammered for a long time, "I won''t take what Mr. Li just said seriously. Just rest assured." "..." Ling Junze clenched his hands on the steering wheel. Why did he feel even worse as she exined? Tian Sangsang was even more innocent. She was in a worse mood seeing Director Ling showing an even more impatient look. Didn''t she say anything wrong just now? At the red light at the intersection. Ling Junze turned his face slightly and his sharp look fell on the woman''s fair face after the car stopped at the line. He was even angrier seeing her being so innocent. "I''m not in a bad mood because of you. Don''t tter yourself." "..." Tian Sangsang blinked. When, when did she ttered herself? [...] Li Han felt more at ease and refreshed after his fever was brought down by the intravenous drip. He was now just a little blunt because of his fever. After lying down for almost a day, he felt his head a little heavy. After pulling out the needle, he put on his clothes and went downstairs. Shu Tian knew he was about to get up so she had just warmed up the porridge and brought it to the table. "Have some." The man stood still in the living room with one hand on the back of the chair and looked at her seriously. He looked at her so carefully that Shu Tian thought there was something on her face. She touched her face and said. "Is there something on my face?" The man shook his head. "No." Shu Tian felt a little hot on her face. "Then what are you looking at?" "I just want to look at you." "Just want to..." Shu Tian frowned and then suddenly smiled. She took two steps forward and looked up at him. "What do you mean?" Li Han took her directly into his arms. Her tall and strong body could almostpletely block her. Even if she stood on tiptoe, she could only reach his shoulder. Shu Tian raised her hands and hugged the man in front of her. She patted him twice and asked with a "Nothing." Li Han tilted his head slightly and crossed her neck. "I''m just happy to think that yourwsuit with Tang Zechen is done." Shu Tian smiled. "I''m happy too." "No." The man let go of her and stepped back a little so that she could see his face clearly. "I''m happy that you finally belong to me, from both a personal and legal standpoint." Shu Tian was dumbfounded for a few seconds before she understood what he meant. He said he was happy not only because she had won thewsuit, but because she had nothing to do with another man. There was a line in a song. "We could restart another only when we ended one rtionship." Even though she and Tang Zechen were just a couple in name only, she still felt rxed when their rtionship finally ended. She and Li Han finally had a chance to be together openly. "I¡®m sorry to let you wronged before." Shu Tian blushed. Although she was teasing him, she was the one who was embarrassed. The man lowered his head. "Then make it up to me." He had said these words so many times that Shu Tian reflexively flinched when she heard them. "You''re still sick. What if you infect me?" Only then did a smile appear in the man''s eyes. "What are you thinking? Your mind is full of coprological thoughts." "Full of what?" Shu Tian knew she was being teased and red at him angrily. "You''re really in a high spirit now!" Li Han pulled her into his arms again and brought her to the table. "Have some with me." Shu Tian didn''t eat much for a day either so she was already hungry. She filled a bowl of porridge and sat beside him, eating slowly. "By the way," Shu Tian turned to ask him when she suddenly thought of Mr. Wu''s words, "Is Tang Zechen going to give me more than half of his assets after thewsuit is over?" "Almost. It will be carried out ording to the verdict." Shu Tian''s hand, which was scooping the porridge, did not move as if she was thinking something. Li Han nced across her face. "How? You don''t want it?" He still remembered the first time he met her when she came to thew firm, ready to file a divorce Shu Tian hadplex feelings now. "I just feel ufortable with this money." Hearing her reason, Li Han curled his lips. However, he still said in a preaching manner, "You can be high-hearted but remember not to be so high-hearted that you''re finally a fool." "I know." Shu Tian understood what he was trying to say, "I don''t want to be high-hearted. I just feel a little guilty." Although the money should be given to her legally, after all, it was not earned by herself. A short marriage of more than a year ended in Tang Zechen''s infidelity. Even if she was a victim, she was still a person who took a huge divorce fee. Other people might have some thoughts if they heard of something. Property ? N?velDrama.Org. "I''m suddenly a little d that you''re the one who helped me in this case. Otherwise, you might have misunderstood me." Shu Tian smiled helplessly and looked at him with sparkling eyes. "Actually, I have a particrly unrealistic idea." "Go ahead." "I want to cash in all the ie from this divorce and donate some of it." "What about the ratio?" Shu Tian thought for a moment. "Fifty percent." People were not sages and she was just an ordinary woman. All she could do was this. She still had to leave some of the money for Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei to live out their lives in retirement. If Li Han really wanted to leave her one day, maybe she would never marry again in her life. She hoped that her parents would not suffer with her then. Li Han put down the cutlery in his hand, took a piece of paper, and elegantly wiped the corner of his mouth. He looked down to hide theplicated emotions in his eyes. In fact, he could notice what she was thinking and doing. He was clear that she had no sense of security towards him at all and felt even more flustered and confused now that she knew the elder''s attitude toward her. However, what made Li Han feel the most powerless was that he did not dare to easily persuade her to make other choices. Their rtionship was soplicated and fragile that even though he trust himself, he couldn''t control any ident that would happen. After a long time, Li Han finally nodded. "I''ll help you." Shu Tian looked at the delicious white porridge in the spoon but suddenly lost her appetite. "Okay." Chapter 112 Chapter 112 As soon as Tang Guofeng arrived at home, he asked Tang Zechen to meet him in the study. The atmosphere in the room crackled with tension as the father and the son confronted each other on both sides of the table. Liu Lifang waited anxiously outside the study. Thest time Tang Guofeng got so furious was when thepany had a cash flow problem. Whatever irritated him this time must be just as serious. "You''re way out of line this time, young man. How dare you provoke Li Han? Did the divorce make you crazy?" Tang Guofeng scolded loudly. Tang Zechen, who remained calm, replied with a sneer, "Dad, you''re really losing your patience with age. Don''t make a fuss. It''s not a big deal. I didn''t expect you to be so scared of Li Han." Bang! Tang Guofeng pped the table hard. "Yes, you are not scared! How could our warrior who always cause trouble for me ever be scared? Let me ask you this. Have you ever made any achievements after taking charge of thepany? Have you ever managed a single project well? Thepany is in danger now, and let''s see what did you do to solve the problem. You provoked Li Han and caused him to run directly to thepany to confront me!" After Li Han''s visit, all their partners ended the cooperation, which had cost Tang Guofeng so much time and effort and tons of obsequious smiles to get. Thepany was in a crisis now. They couldn''t afford to cancel another contract. "Li Han went to thepany?" Tang Zeren was shocked as he didn''t expect Li Han to do so much for Shu Tian the bitch. "He seems to have special interests in things abandoned by others." "His feeling for Shu Tian is definitely beyond interest. Actually, he is now infatuated with her. If you keep causing trouble to Shu Tian, you''re absolutely going to lose more. This house as well as BY Technology will be taken over by Li Han sooner orter!" Tang Guofeng coughed due to anger when he thought about what might happen in the future. Tang Zechen felt sorry when he saw this but he was still unwilling to agree with his father. "Dad, maybe you''re overestimating Li Han. He couldn''t be that powerful. After all, he doesn''t own J City..." Tang Guofeng snorted. "It''s true that J City doesn''t belong to him, but none of the powerful people in this city dare to challenge him." Frightened by what Tang Guofeng said, Tang Zechen sat still in silence. "I know you''re not reconciled, but you have no choice but to kneel to those who are more powerful than you. This is the principle of life. Zechen, I''ve devoted my entire life to BY Technology and now I''m begging you as your father: Don''t provoke Li Han again." Using both carrot and stick, Tang Guofeng softened his voice. "What''s between you and Shu Tian, no matter it''s good or bad, is all past now. Don''t lose anything more due to her because we don''t have much left now!" "But dad..." No one knew a man better than his own father. Tang Guofeng, who had guessed out what Tang Zechen was going to say, interrupted him and handed him some paper from the drawer. "Read them yourself." Tang Zechen took it over in confusion. It was the detailed financial statements of thepany for the His face darkened as he read it. As he finished the reading, he finally understood why Tang Guofeng was so furious. The situation was much worse than he had imagined. He had a bad feeling after reading this. "Dad, this... What on earth happened to ourpany?" "You''ve seen it all." Tang Guofeng''s face darkenedpletely. "Don''t do such a thing ever again. BY Technology might be destroyed by your little mistake, understand?" Tang Zechen couldn''t say anything else at this moment, no matter how reluctant he was. Compared to the crisis thepany was in and the divorce, everything else was not so important. He felt like he could endure them all. However... "Dad, are we going to let Shu Tian go easily? That bitch is the reason for everything we''ve been suffering!" Tang Guofeng let out a heavy sigh. "Zechen, forget it! Forget it..." [...] Tang Zechen left his family''s house and got into the car in a bad mood. Jiang Mengyao was waiting for him in the front passenger seat. Tang Zechen had been moody these days and often lost his temper for no reason, which forced Jiang Mengyao to observe the look on his face before she said anything to him. Although she had moved into the mansion Shu Tian once lived in, she was exhausted every day since she had to be extremely careful when facing Tang Zechen. Now that Tang Zechen was obviously gloomy, Jiang Mengyao didn''t even dare to breathe, avoiding making any sound that could irritate him. Beep! Instead of starting the car, Tang Zechen punched the steering wheel with his right hand hard. Jiang Mengyao shivered in fear and asked in a low voice, "Zechen, are you okay?" "Shu Tian! Shu Tian! Shu Tian! Fucking son of a bitch!" Tang Zechen gritted his teeth and called out Shu Tian''s name three times in a row. His voice was filled with hatred. "Shu Tian... What happened?" Property ? N?velDrama.Org. "The old man wants me to agree to the division of property!" Tang Zechen replied angrily. He was upset when he thought of what would happen. His money and his house... More than half of his property would belong to Shu Tian. They didn''te cheap! His heart hurt as if someone had actually stabbed a knife into it. A glint of surprise flickered in Jiang Mengyao''s eyes. "Is there anything we can do about it?" "Nothing! Li Han came to confront my father at thepany today. They''re having the initiative now. If we continue to postpone the decision, even the BY Technolgy might be taken over by them one day!" "This serious!" Jiang Mengyao was suddenly captured by a moment of panic as she nced at the mansion of the Tang family. Would Tang Zechen be depressed ever since? The man named Li Han seemed to be extremely powerful since both Tang Guofeng and Tang Zechen were afraid of irritating him. What should she do if everything turned out to be in vain atst... Jiang Mengyao shivered in fear at this thought as she turned slowly to Tang Zechen. He had been handsome and rich when they met for the first time as the boyfriend and the best friend of Shu Tian. Then Jiang Mengyao yielded to jealousy and betrayed her friend. However, as she stared at him now, she only saw a helpless man who had been driven into a corner. He couldn''t do anything no matter how angry he was and how hard he tried to defeat his enemy. If half of his poverty was taken away, how much would be left to the Tang family? More importantly, how much would the Tang family leave her? As for someone who was as cunning as Liu Lifang and Shu Changlei, they would definitely be more guarded towards her. Buried in her thoughts, Jiang Mengyao didn''t even know when Tang Zechen drove them back to Mountain Vi. "Why are you still sitting there? Get out of the car!" Tang Zechen shouted at her. Before she could react, he opened the door and then mmed it hard, muttering, "Damned unlucky..." Jiang Mengyaopressed her lips together and followed him into the house without saying anything. "Pack your things these days. The old man and I will give the house to the court." Tang Zechen loosened his tie, whose eyes were filled with anger. Jiang Mengyao, who was changing her shoes, got frozen in shock immediately. "Wh... What!" "Pack your things! Are you deaf?" Tang Zechen vented his anger on her. "But where do we live if we move out?" "I don''t know!" Tang Zechen was upset and didn''t want to discuss this with her now. "Maybe we''ll find an apartment." The vi was going to be reced by an apartment. Jiang Mengyao could feel that something in her heart finally copsed. She looked around the room and atst focused her gaze on Tang Zechen. Everything was over. If they lost this case, they would lose more than just the money. For Jiang Mengyao, she would lose everything. A terrible realization urred to her suddenly. She would have nothing at all in the end if she continued to waste her time on Tang Zechen. Flustered, she went upstairs to her bedroom. As the door closed behind her, she finally dared to allow panic to register on her face. The thought of Shu Tian made her grit her teeth in hatred and also reminded her of another person: Li Han. Jiang Mengyao took out her phone and found a specially-marked number. She had secretly noted some useful information when Tang Zechen hired a private detectivest time. They finally came in handy now. Chapter 113 Chapter 113 Li Han''s illness came and went quickly, and he recovered the next day. The first thing he did after he recovered was to help her cash out the divorce ie, then contact the donor to donate a portion of the property. He intentionally released this news, and soon Shu Tian''s image on the social news had improved. It was the so-called "whitewashing" in the intenguage. Even though she didn''t have done anything wrong, she received a lot of praise. No matter what, people had resonance with the light side of human nature. After the incident, Shu Tian worked at the HY Law Office as usual. The two of them were working together, and after so many things they had gone through, gradually there was less suspicion around them, which made Shu Tian feel much more at ease. She asked Li Han about what she didn''t understand in business. Thetter was happy to teach her, but always with some conditions. For example, tonight Shu Tian was in charge of a case alone for the first time, so it was inevitable for her to be so careful that she came to the study for him when encountering anything doubtful. The man was in a video conference, and she waited for ten minutes for him to hang up. Li Han took her documents and looked at them. His tone was faint. "Didn''t I tell you how to handle this situationst time? Haven''t you understood?" Shu Tian was a little embarrassed, "...These two situations are different, aren''t they?" "What''s the difference?" Shu Tian faltered and couldn''t answer. He waved. "Come here." Shu Tian, who had suffered a loss, stood still. "Just tell me." Li Han narrowed his eyes. "Is this your attitude?" "It''s not that you don''t understand. Couldn''t you just tell me the answer? I have to beg you every time..." Shu Tian muttered unhappily, feeling a little unbnced. Li Han smiled. "I''ve said the same question more than once, but you don''t remember. Who''s to me?" Seeing that she had stopped talking, he did not tease her. He marked the reference and regtions on the margin and handed the documents to her. "Go and read them yourself." Shu Tian took them over and felt better. She always felt that she was a little grumpy now, as if she had been spoiled by him... There were various books in the study, and it was convenient for Shu Tian to find what she needed. It didn''t take long for her to settle the problems. Sitting on the sofa, she looked at the man''s handsome profile. He had a straight nose, deep eye sockets, making his face look three-dimensional. Considering only his appearance, he was totally qualified to be an actor, especially the charm in his features was quite ssy. Shu Tian was a little obsessed as she watched and didn''t even realize how long she had been staring at him until the man sitting behind the desk turned to her and said, "Do you think your man is very handsome?" Shu Tian almost choked on her own saliva and hurriedly looked away. She wanted to run away, but he blocked the door. "I''m talking to you, don''t you hear me?" When he questioned her, he would always raise his eyebrows and look bad. Shu Tian''s heart skipped two beats. She cleared his throat, and as her face was a little hot, she retorted in false denial, "I didn''t look at you." "Is there anyone else in this room?" Li Han took a step forward and got closer to her. The refreshing scent of his body after taking a bath surrounded her with his hormones. "It''s gettingte. Are you done?" Shu Tian had heard this kind of line countless times. How could she not know what he meant? She waved her hand immediately. "There''s a little left... Ah!" Before she could finish speaking, he picked her up, not carrying her horizontally, but with his arms wrapped around her hips and lifted her up straight. Shu Tian was immediately lifted up and looked at the man who was a little beneath her now. Her eyes widened in shock. "What are you doing?" Li Han looked up at her. Maybe the light above him was too bright and even his eyes were tinged with its brilliance. "What do you think, huh?" He deliberately emphasized the words so that Shu Tian could understand the hidden meaning. She blushed instantly and stammered for a long time, "It''s too early..." "Isn''t it too heartless of you to leave after asking the question?" Li Han teased her and saw that her ears were dyed bright red. He curls his lips contently. "Why are you still so shy after we''ve been together for so long?" Shu Tian was even more embarrassed when he said this. She reached out and hit him on the shoulder. "Put me down!" Instead of letting go, Li Han carried her out of the study. He exercised every day, and thus maintained a good figure and physical strength. Carrying her from the third floor to the bedroom on the second was as easy as carrying a pillow. He didn''t even breathe heavily. It waste at night. Outside the window, even the wind was quiet. [...] With these "experiences", Shu Tian learned to be smart. She only asked the questions that she had to ask. Otherwise, it would be a long" torture" to wee her. A few dayster, Tang Zechen''s appeal was rejected by the court and the original verdict was upheld. All of Shu Tian''s ns were carried out as agreed. As for the donation, she chose the orphanage and wanted to go by herself. Li Han wanted to apany her, but he had business to do and was going to Q city on a business trip for two days. Before he went, he had arranged everything, including the motorcade, supplies, and other details, afraid that she would not be able to handle them on her own. Shu Tian followed the motorcade to the orphanage on Saturday morning. It was located in an old city in J City. The surrounding buildings were very dpidated. The outside of the orphanage looked rtively new, but the facilities and environment inside were not satisfactory. Shu Tian coordinated everything with the staff. She didn''t want any battles or scenes, but to simply send the things over and see what was going on here. Any ceremony like taking photos would only make the recipient feel inferior. She did not need it. "Are you the new teacher? Your hair is so beautiful!" Suddenly, her legs were hugged by a pair of small hands, and a soft voice came. Shu Tian looked down. The little girl was only four or five years old, whose height only reached her thigh. She smiled, squatted down, and looked straight at the girl. She raised her hand and touched the girl''s thin hair because of malnutrition. "When you grow up, you will have my hair too." N?velDrama.Org holds this content. "Really?" The little girl blinked her big eyes and asked innocently. Shu Tian nodded. "Yes, you will. As long as you eat well and sleep well." "That''s great!" The little girl pped her hands and was very excited. She turned to see her little friends and ran away. As she ran, she turned around and waved at Shu Tian. "Goodbye~" Shu Tian looked at the little figure, standing still. She felt ufortable and her heart was sore. In fact, there were many unfair things in this world, which were far more painful than what she was suffering now. Such a young child was abandoned who did nothing wrong. "Eat well and sleep well? You lie without blinking." Suddenly, a teasing voice came from behind. Shu Tian was immersed in her own thoughts and was suddenly shocked. The moment she turned around, she saw a face she never wanted to see in her life. The dark night, the coldke, and the strong smell of blood... Chapter 114 Chapter 114 Shu Tian''s pupils shrank, and she subconsciously escaped in the opposite direction once she recognized the personing. Unfortunately, due to the physical difference between men and women, even if she tried her best, she could not run away from the person behind her. Her wrist was grabbed, and she was dragged to the wall behind the courtyard. Thrown against the wall rudely, she felt her back hurt. Shu Tian struggled, but she could not break free. She looked at the man in front of her warily, "Sir, please let me go!" Meng Shichuan had been smiling, albeit hypocritically, but the smirk vanished as he heard her address him as "Sir". "It seems that you don''t have a memory, Miss Shu, for you''ve forgotten me so soon." Shu Tian couldn''t breathe steadily. "I''m sorry, but I tend to forget things that I shouldn''t remember." Hearing her words, Meng Shichuan snorted. Standing in front of her, he looked like a wall with his tall figure almost exceeding 6.2 feet in height. He appeared to be immersed in gloom, especially when he was standing with his back to the light. "Things you shouldn''t remember?" He moved closer, his long and narrow eyes locked on her. "I don''t mind reminding you of that memory, Miss Shu." Shu Tian''s face changed. "Meng Shichuan, what on earth do you want to do?" Hearing his name blurting out of her mouth, the man''s face softened a little. "I don''t want to do anything." "Then let me go!" Meng Shichuan looked at the woman''s flushed face in a rage and suddenly felt in the mood to be yful. "What if I don''t let go..." "You!" Shu Tian seethed as she looked around from the corner of her eye. she had to admit that it was an excellent hiding ce, for few people would pass by, and the backyard was so big that no one would take notice. She looked at him in shock and realized how scary this man was. The anger gradually subsided, and Shu Tian calmed down a little. "Why are you here?" Their previous encounter was so unpleasant that even appearing in the same ce as him would trigger her suspicion. "Don''t worry, I''m not following you. I just happened to pass by." Meng Shichuan didn''t lie, but he didn''t pass by; he hade specially, but meeting her was unexpected. Shu Tian still did not disperse her doubt. During the stalemate, the phone in her pocket rang. Meng Shichuan nced at her and let go of one of her hands, but still tightly grabbed the other. "Answer it." Shu Tian rolled her eyes and picked it up with a trembling hand. "Hello?" "Did you go to the orphanage?" A man''s steady voice came, reassuring her instantly. "Yes, I''m here." Although Shu Tian was talking to Li Han, she kept looking at Meng Shichuan. "Are you done?" Obviously, Meng Shichuan got close to eavesdrop on what they were talking about. "Not yet. There''s a meetingter." As soon as he said that, she heard the secretary call him to attend the meeting. Without further ado, Li Han asked directly. "Is there anything unusual?" Because of this, Meng Shichuan raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her with interest, wondering how she would answer. Obviously, Shu Tian did not keep him curious for too long and blurted out without hesitation, "What could be unusual? Go ahead with your work and don''t keep others waiting. We''ll talk when you''re done with your work." Not only did she not reveal the truth, but she also did not forget to remind him a few words. Meng Shichuan''s eyes lit up with interest, not expecting her to be so calm. After hanging up the phone, Shu Tian looked at him with disgust in her eyes. Yes, disgust. Meng Shichuan also caught her emotion very well. The woman in front of him was very weak and he could kill her with little effort, but her emotions were very interesting. SHe was... indomitable. It didn''t seem appropriate enough. In short, she aroused his desire to conquer. The next second, Meng Shichuan made a move that made Shu Tian almost break down. He reached out and lifted her chin. "Miss Shu, you''re very interesting. If it''s but an ident that we met for the first, then I believe our second encounter is predestined." Shu Tian curled up her lips coldly. "You''re insane." Meng Shichuan was not irritated. "I hope you can keep being interesting, by the way¡ª" At this point, he finally let go of her. "My promise to you is still valid. You''ve saved me once, so I will definitely help you." "Thank you. I don''t need it." "Don''t be so sure." Meng Shichuan looked up at the distance and then turned to leave. Shu Tian looked at the man''s figure and couldn''t get rid of her depression. She walked straight back to the gate where the staff was still transferring supplies, and no one found anything unusual. Shu Tian''s palms were sweating as she prayed that she would never meet this man again. [...] On the other side, after Li Han finished dealing with the matters concerning the branchpany, he still had to dine and socialize with the person in charge. The personing was the head of Q City called Wang Guan, who was 46 years old and had a high official position. So Li Han would receive him in person. The venue of the meal was arranged at a high-end clubhouse in Q City, where membership was required for consumption and a myriad of dishes were avable. There were also high-end rooms and some other entertainment venues upstairs. It was a favorable ce for the entrepreneurs and politicians to frequent, with a high level of privacy guaranteed. Hearing that Li Han wasing, the owner of the club weed him personally and reserved the best private room for him without costing him other fees. Eye candies were unlikely to be absent in parties where men toasted and cheered. Women became the mostmonpanions, even if they did nothing. Their presence eased the atmosphere even if some embarrassing topics were brought up or some strong words hurled. Li Han and Wang Guan upied each of the main seats, while the remaining four or five people were all local dignitaries. Knowing that Li Han was very capable, Wang Guan naturally would not cold- shoulder him, and the atmosphere was rather harmonious in their pleasant conversations. There was only one person who seemed a little deliberate. The face of one woman who apanied one of Wang Guan''s subordinates looked very familiar. Li Han usually didn''t pay much attention to women, as he didn''t even bother to grace them with a nce. But when he heard her voice during the meal, he suddenly remembered that it was Jiang Mengyao. His eyes moved slightly to look at her, but unexpectedly, his gaze was misunderstood to be signaling Property ? N?velDrama.Org. his affection to Jiang Mengyao. Those who were present were all slick and observant. Naturally, no one pointed it out, but they kept a mental note on this matter. Jiang Mengyao had been fidgeting, but she gradually eased, thinking that men were just like this. In order to get information about Li Han''s business trip, she had spent a lot of money on the private detective, so she must not let this opportunity slip. Thinking it this way, Jiang Mengyao unconsciously moved her hand to her pocket to touch a slightly hard edge, which was the hallucinatory drug she had prepared in advance. "Jiang, have a drink! Why are you sitting nkly there?" A man urged her. Jiang Mengyao hastily picked up her ss and chatted with the people around her with a smile, but her eyes were always looking at Li Han either identally or deliberately. Li Han cast his eyes down and snorted. He retreated his chair. "I''m going to the bathroom." After that, he turned around and walked out, but did not enter the bathroom in the private dining room. A sh of crafty light crept through Jiang Mengyao''s eyes, as her grip on the ss unconsciously tightened. Finally, the opportunity came! Chapter 115 Chapter 115 As soon as Li Han left the private room, he called Shu Tian. With a cigarette in one hand which sent it to his mouth, the man held the phone in the other hand. Under the warm yellow light in the corridor, a trace of warmth was revealed on the man''s cold face. "Hello?" After a few seconds, the woman''s soft voice came. The coldness in Li Han''s eyespletely dissipated. "Have you eaten?" "Not yet. I just came back from the orphanage. The children were very pitiful, so I stayed a little longer." Shu Tian was lying on the sofa with the phone in her hand and giggling. "What about you?" "At a social gathering." "Come back home quickly, and I''ll wait for you..." Li Han took a puff of smoke and quickly spat it out. He couldn''t wait to interrupt her. "I miss you very much." No one had ever made him so distracted and anxious. Pei Yu was right. Li Han had been a workaholic, but ever since he had Shu Tian, he was always looking forward to returning home, so he always finished his work quickly in order to spend more time with her. Shu Tian''s heart seemed to miss a beat and she answered in a low voice, "I miss you too." Even if she hadn''t seen the man for only one day, she missed him very much. They kept talking for a while, all about trivial daily matters, but they really enjoyed it. The cigarette was dead. Li Han turned around, put it out, and threw it in the trash can. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a graceful figure. It was Jiang Mengyao. Li Han''s eyes darkened. "Wait for me at home. I''ll be back tomorrow night." Shu Tian was slightly confused. "Are you busy?" "Yes, I''ll call youter tonight. Bye." "Okay." A second after the call ended, Jiang Mengyao was standing in front of him. She changed her expression slightly, pretended to look rxed, and greeted, "Hi, Mr. Li, haven''t seen you for quite a while~" Silent, Li Han had a nce at the woman, then he looked away coldly. Looking at the man''s impatient look, Jiang Mengyao was actually scared. This man was too intimidating, especially when he was in a bad mood. At that time, a single nce could make you too scared to speak. Only when Li Han faced Shu Tian could he show his softness. At this moment, Jiang Mengyao was frightened, but she said with a feigned smile, "Mr. Li, don''t look at me in this way. In fact, we didn''t have any conflicts before, but just because of some matters in the Tang family. You see, I''m not Tang Zechen''s girlfriend now, so we''re not enemies now." "Enemy?" Li Han finally spoke, extremely contemptuously. "Do you deserve to be my enemy?" N?velDrama.Org holds this content. Hearing his words, the woman''s face paled with embarrassment, and she continued, "Mr. Li, forgive me and forget about the past unhappiness. Shu Tian was my best friend before. I know you med me for her, but I don''t mean to go this far." As she spoke, she reached out to wipe the corners of her eyes, looking so sad that she nearly cried. "You have no idea how much Shu Tian loved Tang Zechen before. They were almost inseparable. I troubled her in a moment of madness..." Unwilling to hear it, Li Han stared at her coldly. "Get away from me." Jiang Mengyao didn''t expect Li Han to be so indifferent. Stunned, she had been pushed aside before she could react. She turned around in disbelief, looking at the man who was leaving without looking back. Seemed to be disgusted by her touch, the man was even wiping his palm with a handkerchief... Jiang Mengyao was totally discouraged, her hands at her side clenching and her fingers formed into trembling fists. In order to participate in today''s dinner, she had slept with several people, including Wang Wei and his men. Well, since he despised her, then never med her for using other tricks! Jiang Mengyao thought of the powder she had put in the cup before she hade out. After taking a deep breath, she reentered the private room, with feigned ease and joy. "Mr. Li, you''vee from J City and we should take good care of you. What about going upstairs after the dinner?" One of the men said. Although the man did not say it in a straightforward way, his expression had already shown his intention. Li Han replied coldly. "No, maybe next time." "Well, well!" The man did not insist, not dare to insist. Then, the man picked up his ss and greeted guests on the spot. "Then let''s clink sses. As long as you need our help in Q City, just tell us!" Although the words were unreliable, it was indeed pleasing. Li Han would not get them embarrassed. As a result, he nced at the ss on the table and picked it up. "Thank you." Watching Li Han raise his head to drink the red wine in his ss, Jiang Mengyao''s was finally relieved and drank all the wine as well. After that, the crowd sat down and said something more, even about personal matters. Jiang Mengyao had been watching Li Han''s expression. After more than ten minutes, the powder worked, making the man look in a daze. She asked someone else to purchase the powder which was made up of a prescription. Unlike a low- quality sleeping drug on sale, the effect of the powder was not evident but powerful. It would not make people feel dizzy all of a sudden, but gradually had a feeling of drunkenness. "Did you drink too much?" Someone came over and asked with concern. Li Han shook his head. His temples slightly ached, which was a symptom of getting drunk. In confusion, Li Han nced at the ss, thinking that he hadn''t drunk how much. "Mr. Li, shall I help you up to rest?" Zhang Bikun approached and asked in a low voice that only the two of them could hear. Li Han nodded. "Well." So, after some words, Li Han asked Zhang Bikun to book a room for him, took the elevator to the top floor, and entered the presidential suite. "Mr. Li, do I need to stay with you?" Seeing Li Han''s pale face, Zhang Bikun was a little worried. Li Han was reluctant to stay with others in the same room, so he waved his hand. "It doesn''t matter. Please go out." Zhang Bikun agreed and walked out, leaving a pill of hangover medicine. The door closed, leaving Li Han alone. He tried to stand up from the sofa, but he soon fell back onto the sofa. Gradually, he had an abnormal headache. Although Li Han had a headache asionally, it wouldn''t be so serious. Then, he was distracted and sleepy, walking back to the bed before taking a shower. Finally, he fell asleep on the bed. Jiang Mengyao walked around downstairs for nearly 20 minutes. When it was time to enter the room, she opened the hotel door with the universal room card she had got beforehand. "Click" -- The door was indeed unlocked! Overjoyed, Jiang Mengyao sneaked in. Seeing the man lying on the bed, she smiled broadly. "Li Han, how could you be so unlucky..." Chapter 116 Chapter 116 She had prepared so much for this moment! Jiang Mengyao walked over and tentatively patted Li Han on the shoulder, who did not react at all on the bed while breathing heavily, frowning, and looking very ufortable. But even so, he still looked handsome. She began to imagine what would happen if Li Han pressed her down. She blushed, but she was not in a hurry. In fact, she had not thought about having sex with him. After all, if Li Han knew that he was schemed when he woke up, he would definitely not let it go. All she had to do was let Shu Tian misunderstand. Jiang Mengyao sat by the bed, leaning against Li Han. She didn''t know if it was because of the alcohol that he was a little hot, which made her a little flustered. Jiang Mengyao murmured dreamily, "If only you belonged to me." A little whileter, a buzz suddenly came. She suddenly bent down, pressing her ear against the wall, and carefully looked for the source of the sound. Finally, she found the phone in Li Han''s suit pocket. She picked it up without hesitation and did not speak, but listened to the soft voice on the other end of the phone. "Li Han, have you returned home?" Looking smug, Jiang Mengyao did not speak, imagining what Shu Tian would look like when she heard her voiceter. Jiang Mengyao listened to her ramblings until Shu Tian asked, "Hello? Li Han, can you hear me?" Jiang Mengyao sneered and looked at the man lying next to her smugly. She deliberately said in a coquettish way. "Who is it? Li Han is asleep." On the other end of the phone, Shu Tian was stunned, standing there for nearly half a minute before she regained her senses. "Who is that?" "Oh, it''s only been a few days that you couldn''t recognize my voice, my...dear...friend." Jiang Mengyao paused slightly, deliberately making the title clear and sarcastic. Shu Tian felt totally shocked by Jiang Mengyao''s words. She trembled uncontrobly, leaning against the wall to help herself stand still. N?velDrama.Org holds this content. She tried to calm herself down. Although she was trembling, she said in a steady tone. "Where''s Li Han? Let him answer the phone." "My good friend, don''t you understand? Li Han is already asleep." Jiang Mengyao nced at the man on the bed from the corner of her eyes and said in a low voice, "Han, wake up. You drank so much at the party tonight. Are you feeling unwell?" As she spoke, she revealed the name of the clubhouse, which made Shu Tian a little overwhelmed. Shu Tian was sure that they must be together because Li Han did have a social engagement there tonight. "I can''t wake him up. Let''s talk about it tomorrow." Shu Tian took a deep breath. "Jiang Mengyao, is someone else''s thing so good? No, I should say, you really want my thing so much?" "Ah," Jiang Mengyao did not feel ashamed at all, but said smugly. "I can have it if I want, so what can you do to me?" "If you push me, you won''t get a good result." Shu Tian stared at the wall. She had never hated anyone so much. The smile on Jiang Mengyao''s face faded, and she said enviously and ferociously. "Shu Tian, I just don''t like your arrogant face. Who do you think you are? If a man can love you, he can love others, but you are a fool since you believe everything others say." She could lie to Shu Tian, but she could not lie to herself. She knew exactly that Shu Tian was the only one Li Han loved! She hated it and she desperately wanted everything Shu Tian had. "Um..." Li Han suddenly snorted extremely ufortably and moved a little. Then, Jiang Mengyao immediately hung up the phone. It was quiet in the presidential suite. Jiang Mengyao sat stiffly by the side, afraid that the man behind would wake up. Although the medicine still worked, there were always idents on Li Han. Fortunately, he only moved a little and changed his position to continue sleeping. Jiang Mengyao breathed a sigh of relief and carefully took his finger to unlock the screen of the phone. She found the caller id and deleted Shu Tian''s call. After all this, she felt it was not enough. Approaching his head after taking off her clothes, she took a close-up of their faces. From the photo, it was as if she was naked and Li Han nestled in her arms. Looking at it with satisfaction, she sent Shu Tian an MMS and then deleted it. She reluctantly put the phone back where it was. Although she didn''t want to leave, she had to. [...] On the other side, although Jiang Mengyao called, Shu Tian still had a trace of trust in Li Han. No matter what, seeing was believing. Maybe Jiang Mengyao framed him. However, this guess was quickly destroyed by the photo sent to her. Looking at them in their intimate posture, she couldn''t help but burst into tears. She couldn''t believe it. She slid down the wall and sat on the cold ground, weeping. Jiang Mengyao and Li Han. She couldn''t understand why they got together. Just as she had found out that Jiang Mengyao was having an affair with Tang Zechen, she was broken- hearted as the same thing happened again. She had no choice but to believe this. The only thing she missed was the scene of them making love. Thinking of how much he cherished another woman, she couldn''t breathe. She raised her hand and clutched at the clothes by her chest, as if this would relieve her pain. Tears blurred her eyes and she couldn''t see anything. After a long silence, she finally couldn''t help but cry. "Why, why..." ''''It''s almost eleven o'' clock. What are they doing?'''' ''''Did Li Han know the message Jiang Mengyao sent to me?'''' ''''If he knew, why was he so indifferent that he didn''t even stop her? If he didn''t know, was he already nning to have sex with Jiang Mengyao out of town?'''' thought she. No matter which one, it was not something she could bear. If only she could find an excuse for him. Li Han... She loved Li Han that much, so it was extremely painful at this time. Looking at everything around her vaguely through her tears, she felt extremely disheartened. Perhaps, from the beginning, it was not worth believing and starting. Chapter 117 Chapter 117 Shu Tian didn''t sleep for almost a night with tears running down. Ultimately, her eyes hurt from crying but still couldn''t stop weeping. She was immersed in sadness and couldn''t get rid of it. When she got up the next day, her pillow was still wet. She walked into the bathroom, looked at her ghostly pale face in the mirror, and weakly tugged at the corner of her lips. After waiting all night, there was still no news of him. Disappointment turned to despair, no hope finally. That would be all. The thought shed through her mind, and Shu Tian''s rims of eyes turned red again. She turned on the tap, the sound of running water ringing in her ears, and put a handful of water on her face, unable to tell tears from water. She didn''t and had no mood to go to work. She didn''t want to face anything rted to Li Han, afraid that she would cry out for an emotional breakdown. She didn''t want anyone to see her coward, nor could she face the sweet ces she spent with him. "Ding!" Suddenly, the phone rang. She deliberately turned up her phone ring to the maximum volume in case of missed any call. Shu Tian quickly picked up the phone but saw the caller ID on the screen was not the person she expected the most. After a second, she answered the phone, hearing Fu Qingtong''s crisp and impatient voice. "I can''t stand it anymore. I really can''t stand it anymore. My father keeps bothering me again!" Shu Tian was restless and replied indifferently. "What''s wrong?" "It''s still about work. He is always wanting to control me. I''m a fucking person, not a tool. I have been twenty-four! Can''t I decide what I want to do?" Fu Qingtong was so annoyed that she almost screamed out loud, "I''m too irritated. I''ll go on vacation. No one would find me! Just leave them anxious!" Shu Tian''s eyshes trembled slightly. "Where do you want to go?" "I still haven''t made a decision yet, H City? That''s an ind. I''ve always wanted to go there but have no chance." "Let''s go together." "Well, mainly... Hey, wait, what did you say? Together? You''re going there too?" Only then did Fu Qingtong realize that something was wrong with Shu Tian''s mood. "Did something happen to you?" The corner of Shu Tian''s mouth shook slightly, but she held back. "It''s nothing. I simply want to take a rest recently." "Will your Mr. Li allows you to run out by yourself?" Fu Qingtong said quick, but then she regretted it immediately. It was obvious that there was something wrong between the two of them. So she immediately changed the topic. "Why don''t youe to me and we can talk to each other face to face?" "Okay, I''ll pack up now." Hearing that she was about to pack up, Fu Qingtong opened and shut his mouth, finally only saying, "Be careful on the way." "Okay." At nine in the morning, Shu Tian had packed her suitcase. She went back to the living room and took a look at the phone on the table. There was still no text message or call. She put down her phone numbly, dragged her luggage, and turned to walk towards the door, step by step. The door closed, the room turned to be quiet. [...] Forty minutester, a taxi stopped in front of the Fu family''s vi. Although it was not as grand as Imperial Vi, it was still very luxurious. Shu Tian rang the doorbell and soon the door opened. As soon as she entered the living room, Fu Qingtong bumped into her, hugging her and said, "Nice of you to turn up. I''m so depressed at home!" It was Monday, so the Fu Qingtong''s house was very quiet. Shu Tian was much more rxed. There was too much news about her recently, she was afraid that she would be embarrassed when seeing Fu Qingtong''s parents. "You really came with your suitcase?" Fu Qingtong asked the servant to pull Shu Tian''s suitcase in. "What''s wrong? Did you quarrel with Mr. Li?" "Well, it doesn''t matter. I just want to rx." Shu Tian didn''t tell her for she didn''t know how to say. Such a thing seemed uneptable no matter how to say. Seeing her struggle, Fu Qingtong stopped asking and made a decision. "In that case, let''s go to H City for holiday. You ask for a leave and then we''ll stay in H City for half a month, okay?" "Okay." Shu Tian smiled. It''s no problem for her to stay longer, not to mention half a month. The two of them looked at the ne tickets for the day, seeing there was a direct flight. So they booked This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. two tickets and rushed to the airport. On the way, Fu Qingtong drove while Shu Tian sat in the passenger seat. She looked out of the window at the street view all the way. The flowers and pedestrians faded from her view, so did her uneasiness. "Tong, I didn''t bring my cell phone when I came out. If anyone contacts you recently, you just say that you don''t know where I am." Fu Qingtong looked at her in surprise. "Why are you pretending to be missing? If Li Han can''t find you, will he skin me alive?" Shu Tian smiled bitterly. "He doesn''t have time to care about me." Fu Qingtong was worried about her. Looking at her expression now, Fu Qingtong felt that things were moreplicated than she thought. "Tian, you just have to know that no matter what happens, I will always be on your side." Shu Tian was really moved. She closed her eyes and nodded and her voice was slightly choked. "Thank you." [...] Li Han, who was in the Q City, had no idea about Shu Tian''s situation. At ten o''clock in the morning, he was woken up by a loud knock on the door. He stood up from the bed with a splitting headache, still wearing his formal dress fromst night''s party. Recalling what happened yesterday, he frowned slightly. Did he drink so much that he was drunk like this? He walked to open the door with slightly unsteady steps. Zhang Bikun stood outside the door, looking anxious. "Mr. Li, are you okay? I had knocked on the door for a long time, but you hadn''t responded before. We have a meeting at noon." Li Han pressed his temple, which hurt a lot. "Was I drunkst night?" Zhang Bikun recalled that Li Han was unsteadyst night and nodded. "It seemed to be." Li Han felt something was wrong. "Did anything happenst night?" "What happened..." Zhang Bikun said truthfully. "After I helped you back to your roomst night, you asked me to leave." Li Han thought for a moment and nodded. "Okay, I see." After returning to his room, Li Han picked up his phone, nced at the call log, then found Shu Tian''s number and dialled it. No one answered the call. Then he called again but still didn''t get the answer. He looked at the time. It was 10: 30 in the morning. Maybe she was probably busy now? Li Han hung up the phone. Thinking of the meetingter, he quickly washed up and dressed, deciding to call her after the meeting. But he did not expect that she had disappeared. At 12: 30 noon, the meeting ended, and a group of executives in suits filed out, surrounding Li Han. Several of them were whispering when Zhang Bikun suddenly came over with the phone. "Mr Li, Miss Shu is out of touch..." Chapter 118 Chapter 118 Li Han''s sharp eyes suddenly widened and his expression became serious. "Mr. Ji called to say Miss Shu didn''t go to work today and he couldn''t get through to her..." Before Zhang Bikun could finish speaking, his phone had been snatched by Li Han. Grabbing the phone, Li Han walked into the office. "What''s going on?" "I should be the one who ask you this question." Mr. Ji originally thought Shu Tian waste for work, but it was already 12 p.m. and she didn''t show up. This was not like something she normally did. Mr. Ji said, "Call her." Ji Chuanyi thought they had a quarrel so he didn''t take Shu Tian''s disappearance seriously. Ji Chuanyi''s words were buzzing around in Li Han''s head because Li Han didn''t get through to Shu Tian when he called her this morning. "I see." With a snap, he hung up the phone. Li Han turned on his phone''s GPS and located Shu Tian''s phone, but it was in Imperial Vi. Seeing so, the man''s face darkened more. If she was at home, she would definitely answer the phone, so there was only one possibility - she left her phone at home. They didn''t quarrel or have anything unpleasant, but why did Shu Tian suddenly disappear? Or did something happen during his absence? There were all kinds of guesses and other possibilities running through Li Han''s mind. For the first time, Li Han felt a strong sense of powerlessness. After the meeting and handover of work, he immediately booked a flight back to J City. The nended, and a st of cold air hit Li Han as he stepped off the ne. It was nearly seven or eight degrees colder in J City than in Q City. Li Han gathered his coat and got into the RV through the VIP passageway. Zhang Bikun looked at the man who hadn''t had a good rest for around three days, persuading, "Mr. Li, you''d better take a nap now." But Li Han only nodded slightly, indicating that he had heard it, but he had no intention of sleeping at all. The car started, and the dim light from the roof of the RV fell on Li Han''s chiseled features. His handsome features were tinged with a trace of speechless loneliness. The air was almost frozen. Zhang Bikun clearly knew how important Shu Tian was to Li Han. Now, even Zhang Bikun was worried and nervous because she had suddenly disappeared, "Mr. Li, do you want to ask friends of the police station to help find Miss Shu?" The man''s deep eyes blinked. "Not yet. Go home first." The slender index finger, which was casually draped on the back of the car chair, moved slightly. He wished he could see Shu Tian who he had been thinking about day and night when he got home. He wished. [...] The car drove from the airport to the Imperial Vi for nearly an hour. Before the driver could open the door for Li Han, he stepped out hurriedly. It was inappropriate for Zhang Bikun and the driver to follow in, so they waited, watching Li Han rush into the vi. However, five minutester, he walked out with a serious look. Zhang Bikun became worried. Clearly, Miss Shu was not at home. Zhang Bikun looked up and met Li Han''s colourless and cold gaze, seeing that thetter suddenly smiled. However, Li Han''s smile was frightening. "She''s not here." Saying only a few words almost exhausted him. He was not a fragile person. Only when it came to Shu Tian would he lose control like this. Zhang Bikun felt unpleasant and worried. He took out his phone, intending to find Shu Tian with the help of his socialwork. But before Zhang Bikun could get through to them, he heard a "bang" from his side. Li Han punched the car hard and it was clearly hurt. Zhang Bikun stepped forward and immediately held Li Han''s hand, "Mr. Li!" Li Han breathed heavily and panicked. It was getting darker, and there were thousand thoughts in his mind, and the strongest one was to find Shu Tian as soon as possible. "Ask the director general of the police station to start searching for her. Now!" "Okay." Without stopping, the car drove straight to the public security bureau in J City. Director Zhang weed Li Han personally and handed the real-time information of Shu Tian''s ID card to him. It showed that this afternoon, Shu Tian bought an ID-based ne ticket to H City. Li Han nced at his watch, checking the time. She should arrive. "Where''s the hotel information?" "We don''t know. Either Miss Shu lives with someone else or she doesn''t check in with her real name." The trail had gone cold. Although high technology could help locate Shu Tian, they at least need her check-in information. Otherwise, finding Shu Tian in H City was an impossible mission. Li Han was almost unable to suppress his coldness. He lit a cigarette and his face was grim and terrible. Even Director Zhang, who was sitting next to him, did not dare to say a word. Shu Tian disappeared for no reason, which gave Li Han a sense of fear that all his strength had been exhausted. He didn''t even know how to find her. No policeman in the room dared to make a sound provoking the man who was emanating the cold and terrible aura. "Mr. Li, we''re going to start searching for her. If there''s any news, I''ll inform you immediately. You can go back waiting. Only sitting here provides no help. They should back to work now." Director Zhang couldn''t stand the heavy atmosphere in the office and said with an awkward smile. Li Han twisted the cigarette butt on his fingertips, which was half burnt, and pressed it into the ashtray under everyone''s gaze. The sound of the fire being put out made everyone breathe a sigh of relief. He stood up with a cold aura and turned around, walking out of the office. Zhang Bikun said to Director Zhang, "Thank you. Please inform us if you have any news." "You''re wee." After leaving the police station, Li Han drove straight back to Imperial Vi. The huge vi was plunged into darkness and the lights were not on. To see from the outside, the vi seemed to merge with the dark. Li Han opened the car door and strode to the vi, pressing his finger against the fingerprint lock, but what was weing him was only darkness. Shu Tian left so suddenly that he was unprepared, so it was difficult for him to even enter the house now. After struggling for a moment, Li Han finally walked in. He closed the door and turned on the lights. The whole living room was finally brightened, but his beloved was not here. Hepressed his thin lips, lowered his head, changed his shoes, and walked to the bedroom on the second floor. A few of her clothes were missing. Besides, her bag, important documents, and suitcase were all gone with her. She left here premeditated. Li Han walked into the bathroom, seeing that her pale pink towel was still hanging on the hook. He leaned over, smelling the clear fragrance of her body. Li Han sniffed nostalgically, and his suppressed feelings urged to rush out because of her fragrance. N?velDrama.Org holds this content. His bloodshot eyes widened suddenly, and he pulled off the towel and clenched it as if he was clenching the girl who had disappeared. When did she want to leave him? Did she leave because she got divorced sessfully? She didn''t stay because she achieved her goal. Li Han sneered, and his eyes gradually turned cold. His cold knuckles made a "click" sound because he clenched his fists in anger. He looked in the mirror, as if he could see the familiar face in it. What he firmly believed and thought he would not lose was slowly bing reality. Powerlessness, anxiety, and panic for the first time welled up, and those terrible feelings almost drowned him. Chapter 119 Chapter 119 Li Han almost turned J City upside down and searched every corner, but Shu Tian waspletely oblivious of the chaos she had left. After the nended, she took her luggage and got into Fu Qingtong''s roadster, heading for the most luxurious hotel on the ind of H City. She didn''t have much money, but after working at the HY Law Office for so long, she had a small deposit of her own, which was not a big deal to spend. She was so sad that she needed spending money to cover it up. The lobby of the hotel was resplendent and imposing. The two of them took a suite, in which two rooms were connected. The view of the ind was visible. "Tong, use your ID card." When they checked in, Shu Tian said sheepishly. Fu Qingtong waved her hand generously. "It''s okay. We''ll share the same room anyway, so it doesn''t matter." Shu Tian felt a little guilty that she didn''t tell Fu Qingtong that she just didn''t want Li Han to find her. Although she didn''t know if the man would really be looking for her anxiously, she just wanted to calm down and smother these possibilities. After checking in, it was already getting dark. H City was close to the tropical zone and the weather was nice as if spring lingered here all year round. The two of them changed into long skirts and went to the most popr seaside restaurant on the ind. Before they entered the door, they heard a melodious songing from inside, for there was a singer was ying music. Sea breezes blew slowly under the night, gently rubbing Shu Tian''s body and face, but failed to take away the sorrow in her heart. Fu Qingtong chose an open-air seat outside. There were many foreigners at the next table, chatting andughing mirthfully. Most of the food was seafood. Fu Qingtong ordered lobster and some other supplementary sds. Seeing that she was sitting in her seat in a bad mood, Fu Qingtong pointed to the bonfire not far away. "The waiter said there would be an interaction sectionter. Go and dance?" Shu Tian cast her eyes down. "I don''t want to dance. Let''s drink." Fu Qingtong was shocked. "Drink? Are you sure?" Thest time the two of them drank at the KTV, they were so drunk that they possibly couldn''t even recognize their own mother. Thinking of this, she couldn''t help but remember a person, Ji Chuanyi. For the first time in her life, she was so despised by a man. "Well, since both of us have something troubling our minds and both are unhappy, let''s drink!" Fu Qingtong called the waiter with a smile and ordered a few cocktails and a bottle of imported champagne. "We are so far away anyway. They can''t stop us even if they want to." They had quite afortable meal. Not far away was the shimmering sea under the night, and behind her was a noisy and enthusiastic crowd. As she swigged down the alcohol, she felt her negative emotions wear away. A crisp sound came as they clinked their sses. Shu Tian raised her head to take a gulp. The light yellow liquor disappeared from her lips, and her head gradually went into a daze as her mind was a little distracted. "Tong, why all men like to find another girlfriend when he already has one?" "Burp~" Fu Qingtong burped heavily. Hearing Shu Tian''s voice, her attention shifted from the handsome foreign man and she raised a finger calmly. "Because they are - cheap!" "..." Shu Tian''s serious sadness was interrupted." To be honest, I don''t want to trust any man now." "Why? Just because of that scumbag Tang Zechen?" Fu Qingtong shook her head and sneered disdainfully. "It''s not worth it." Shu Tian did not say anything. Of course, she knew it was not worth it, very much. But she was betrayed and deceived again and again. Her heart would get hurt, and it would one day be riddled with wounds. She really didn''t want to go through the same experience again. She couldn''t bear it, really couldn''t stand it again. After a few rounds of drinking, both of them became slightly beyond tipsy, and a blush that was characteristic of drunkenness appeared on their cheeks. Not only was it pleasant to look at, but it also served as a foil for their fair and tender skin. Shu Tian was wearing a sapphire blue gauze dress, which was draped to her ankles. Gentle breezes swayed her dress, making her ethereally gorgeous. Fu Qingtong insisted on dragging her to the dance. Shu Tian was numb in her drunken state and couldn''t refuse, so she followed Fu Qingtong. Many people were holding hands in front of the bright bonfire, forming a whole circle. Fu Qingtong found a ce to squeeze in, and Shu Tian followed. Unfortunately, there were too many people, so the two of them were separated with a few interrupted in between. "Tong, Tong..." Shu Tian called out to her, but it was so noisy around and Fu Qingtong was so excited that she didn''t hear Shu Tian at all. Just as she was about to walk over to look for Fu Qingtong, her left hand was suddenly wrapped in warmth. Her body instantly froze. She thought that someone was holding the wrong hand and immediately wanted to pull it back, but the more she pulled it, the tighter the grip became. Shu Tian became slightly irritated. She turned around and was about to scold the person in a low voice, but she bumped into a pair of bottomless dark eyes. "It''s you?!" After seeing the person''s facial features, Shu Tian resisted even more fiercely. She was almost sober from her drunkenness. "Are you stalking me?!" If it was an ident at the orphanage in J City, she would never believe it would be a coincidence this time! Meng Shichuan looked down at the woman in front of him. She had obviously drunk and was a little tipsy. Her little face was ruddy and her voice was nasal. She wore a V-neck dress, which was dark blue and made her white skin stand out. Her ck and shiny hair fluttered in the wind, so conspicuous. In the crowd, he saw her almost at a nce. Hearing her angry question, the man quirked up his lips slightly. "It was indeed a coincidence." He didn''t expect to meet her here. He just saw her standing here and came over to hold her hand. As for the reason for holding her hand, he didn''t know very well, and he simply wanted to get close to her. "Liar!" Shu Tian didn''t believe it at all. "Z Country is so big. Why is it so coincidental that you meet me at the same time and ce twice?" Meng Shichuan shrugged. "It''s incredible, but that''s the truth. Besides, why should I stalk you?" "You!" Shu Tian was stricken speechless and she just wanted to get rid of him immediately. Her face darkened a little in spite of herself. "Whatever you think, from now on, don''t follow me, and don''t even greet me." Meng Shichuan sneered. "Miss Shu is my savior. How can I pretend not to know you?" Shu Tian was already upset and vexed, coupled with her drunkenness, she could not smother the impulse to refute him. "If I had known that you would continue to pester me like this, I wouldn''t have saved you at all!" The smile in the man''s eyes faded in an instant, and his long and narrow eyes returned to their previous coldness, freezing those who dared to look into them. "Heh." He chuckled and let go of the big hand that was holding her. "Unfortunately, there is no ''if'' in this world." Shu Tian pulled back her hand, red at him warily, and walked away quickly. Fu Qingtong was immersed in the dance when Shu Tian dragged her away. Along the way, she "Stop dancing. If you continue, you won''t be able to go back to the hotel..." This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. Before she could finish his sentence, three men in ck suits suddenly appeared in front of them. They were tall and had a frightening temperament, apparently badasses that nobody would be pleased to mess up with, especially with ck earphones on their ears. Shu Tian''s footsteps slightly fluttered as she was a little flustered. She wanted to avoid them and walked to the side but was blocked. "I''m sorry, Miss Shu. Mr. Meng asked you to go over." Chapter 120 Chapter 120 Shu Tian took half a step back and drew Fu Qingtong, who was half drunk, behind her. She looked at them warily. "I don''t know the Mr. Meng you mention." Unexpectedly, the man didn''t seem to hear her at all. He insisted, "I''m sorry, Miss Shu. Please." Shu Tian took a deep breath to calm herself down. "I said I didn''t know Mr. Meng. You have no right to hold me like this. Please get out of my way." "Miss Shu, if you don''t cooperate, we can only take you there by force." N?velDrama.Org holds this content. As they spoke, they took a step forward. Shu Tian''s face darkened and looked at the strong men back and forth. So persistent, huh? Fu Qingtong behind her seemed to sense the atmosphere at the scene was a little weird. He leaned over to Shu Tian and whispered, "Tian, what''s wrong?" "It''s okay." Shu Tian nced at her. "How do you feel? Can you walk by yourself?" "I can!" Shu Tian nodded and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, with her eyes fixed on the people in front of them. "I''ll shoutter, and you''ll run with me." Fu Qingtong couldn''t follow her n, so she just did as told. "Okay." Shu Tian looked at the three men in front of her. After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly pinched Fu Qingtong''s palm and whispered, "Run!" She turned around, walked, and gasped heavily. The gentle wind that she had felt just now was piercing on her face like a de. The two of them ran desperately towards the main road in the distance. They felt their lungs were burning because of their rapid breathing, and their movements slowed down uncontrobly. The footsteps behind them were getting closer and closer... Shu Tian used all her strength, but she still couldn''t get rid of him. She ran less than a hundred meters away before she was grabbed on the arm! "Miss Shu." The man''s voice was still very steady, as if he had not run just now. Shu Tian knew that she couldn''t hide. She turned around and looked up at the man''s face. Before she speak, something suddenly flew over and hit the man in the arm. "Let her go." A clear and familiar voice sounded from behind. Hearing this, the man immediately took a few steps back, bowed slightly, and said respectfully, "Mr. Meng!" Meng Shichuan walked out from the shadows, each step tipping one''s nerve. He walked close step by step and finally stopped in front of Shu Tian. He looked down at the woman''s reddened wrist, his eyes chilling. "Who told you to be rude to her?" "I''m sorry, Mr. Meng!" Meng Shichuan didn''t think much about it, so he waved his hand to tell this man to step aside. Fu Qingtong blinked, looking at the scene in front of her in a daze. What was going on right now? A super handsome man was blocking them here? No way she could bear it! With Dutch courage, Fu Qingtong took a few steps forward and rushed straight to Meng Shichuan. She tried to reach out to push him, but before she could touch anyone, she was stopped by the bodyguard beside him. The bodyguard grabbed her arm so hard that Fu Qingtong cursed in pain, "Damn it. It hurts so much. Let go of me! Do you hear me?!" When Shu Tian heard her screaming, she was also very anxious. She looked anxiously at Meng Shichuan. "Tell them to let go of her..." Meng Shichuan just nced sideways as if it was none of his business. "Why?" "Didn''t you hear her cry for pain!" "What does this have to do with me?" The man showed no mercy at all, and acted in indifference. Shu Tian was irritated by his behavior, but she did not dare to confront him openly. She could only suppress her anger and try to say in a low voice, "Let her go first. And we''ll discuss the rest." Meng Shichuan raised his eyebrows. "Okay, thene with me." Shu Tian frowned,pressed her lips, and made an excuse. "My friend is drunk. I can''t leave her alone..." "Together." "..." Shu Tian took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, thinking that things had been really not going well recently, with bad things happening to her one by one. This Meng Shichuan was the biggest problem for her right now. If she agreed to go with him, she was afraid that something would happen. It seemed unrealistic not to go. Understanding her doubts and worries, the man said, "Don''t worry, I won''t do anything to you." He was not trustworthy in Shu Tian''s eyes. After a moment of hesitation, she looked at Fu Qingtong''s painful expression and finally hesitated. "Must I go?" "Yes." "Okay, I''ll go with you." Shu Tian changed the subject and pointed at Fu Qingtong. "But we have to send my friend back to the hotel first." Hearing this, Meng Shichuan smiled. "I didn''t know that you were so loyal to your friend. Why? Are you afraid that I''ll do something to you and your friend? Don''t worry, I''m not interested in her. As for you..." As he spoke, he was already observing Shu Tian carefully, and her body was unconsciously tensed up with his eyes fixed on her. Meng Shichuan saw all her reactions. And it was not enough for him. He reached out and patted her on the shoulder. "Shall we?" Shu Tian avoided his palms, and the pretended calmness on her face was about to dissappear. "Let''s go." The group of people walked towards two ck cars on the side of the road. Shu Tian watched Fu Qingtong being brought into an extended Pagani. Just as she was about to bend in, Meng Shichuan stopped her. "Come with me." She saw a top-ss Maybach sedan. She was shaking inside. Knowing that there was no chance to refuse, she followed him and got into the passenger seat. She was so nervous that when she tried to fasten her seat belt, her fingers trembled, and it took her several times to finish it. The car started and sped out. Twenty minutester, the car arrived at the hotel where the two of them were staying. Fu Qingtong was released. Shu Tian lied to her that she was fine and told her to go upstairs. Seeing Fu Qingtong''s figure disappear at the entrance of the hotel, Shu Tian felt even more nervous and her heartbeat became stronger and stronger. She didn''t know what would happen. Knowing that there was no way out, Shu Tian did not make any useless resistance and obediently got into the car. She kept panicking all the way. Finally, after making a detour, the car stopped in front of an inconspicuous coffee shop. Coffee shop? Could it be that he blocked her by the roadsidete at night just to have coffee with her? Shu Tian obviously didn''t think so naively. She turned to look at the coffee shop outside the car window. Her palms were already sweating, and she was getting more and more scared. Meng Shichuan didn''t say anything. He unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car. She followed closely, with two bodyguards following behind. When they reached the coffee shop, the revolving door in front of them was opened automatically. She followed him in. It was quite dim inside, with only a few wallmps on. People could barely see the road under their feet. They walked through the corridor and down two more flights of stairs. Finally, they reached the end. When the door opened, Shu Tian waspletely stunned. What appeared in front of her... was a cruise ship! Chapter 121 Chapter 121 The coffee shop just now, the long corridor, the height of two floors, the location of the ind in H City... Connecting them together, Shu Tian was gooseflesh all over. This ce was not just a gimmick, but actually hid such a passage! Someone could go from thend to the sea through the hidden passage. Shu Tian stood motionless at the door, and Meng Shichuan caught up with her. "Go upstairs." Looking at the entrance to the cruise ship, Shu Tian felt it hard to lift her heavy legs. In fact, she... She was really scared. "Where, where are you taking me?" Unable to pretend to be calm, Shu Tian asked the man nearby in a trembling voice. It was a pity that Meng Shichuan who saw Shu Ting''s fear not only gave her no pity but also felt the pleasure of conquering. "Luxury yacht, have you ever been on it?" He slightly moved up the corner of his mouth and continued, "Go ahead. I won''t kill you." Kill... Shu Tian felt her footsteps heavier... "We can have a talk somewhere else." Shu Ting mustered up her courage, turned, and made the suggestion. But obviously, the man didn''t want to listen to her. Then, he grabbed her by the neck and almost carried her onto the yacht. They were thest couple to board the yacht. As soon as they boarded, the yacht drove away from the shore at a fast but steady speed. Looking at the water sshes on the edge, the woman was a little overwhelmed, thinking that she was finally forced to get on the yacht. N?velDrama.Org holds this content. Suddenly, a burst of cheers came from behind. Shu Tian turned around and realized that a small crowd, about a dozen of them, had gathered. Most of the women were wearing revealing and sexy clothes, while the men were wearing flirtatious short-sleeved shirts or T-shirts. Shu Tian looked down at her long dress. When she had just worn it, she felt that the cor was too wide open. Now,pared to other women, she was simply conservative. Everyone looked rxed with a ss in their hands. It had an intimate atmosphere. Moreover, the couple was not fixed but could be shared. The fact that a man''s hand was caressing a woman''s body made Shu Ting''s stomach heave. She looked away at Meng Shichuan. "Why did you take me here on earth?" The man put her hand on his arm, sensed her resistance, and hindered her with a little strength. "Be obedient, or you will never get off the yacht." Hearing it, Shu Ting was speechless. Meng Shichuan nced at her pale lips. "If someone proposes a toast to me, you need to help me." Shu Tian looked up in surprise. "You called me here to protect you from drinking?" It seemed that Meng Shichuan didn''tck women who could protect him from drinking alcohol and tter him. Meng Shichuan leaned closer to her ear. "Or do you want to do something else?" "No." Shu Tian refused without hesitation, with her eyes falling on the crowd not far away. "If I help you drink, you will let me go, right?" "Yes." "Okay, deal." The two of them walked side by side. Seeing Meng Shichuan''s arrival, everyone present rushed over to seek a connection with him. Among them, there were a few foreign men who spoke fluent English, trying to please Meng Shichuan. After a short exchange of greetings, the crowd walked inside. The interior of the yacht had been modified, and thergest room was turned into a small gambling room. Various devices and instruments were avable. They started to y the game DeZhouPuKe. Shu Tian had no idea of its secret, so she just stood by and watched them y. When the banker revealed the result, all the chips belonged to Meng Shichuan. One of them raised his ss, and Shu Ting knew that her mission wasing. Before the man brought the ss over, Shu Tian raised her ss and greeted the man with a polite tone. "Mr. Meng is not feeling well and can''t drink today. I''ll do it for him." The man paused for a moment and then looked at Meng Shichuan, who was sitting in the chair. In the end, the man did not dare to trouble Shu Ting and drank all the alcohol in his ss with a pleasant face. In return, Shu Tian reluctantly did so as well. For the rest of the time, Meng Shichuan had hardly lost. One, two... Shu Tian got drunker and drunker. Eventually, she couldn''t hold on after drinking one more, so she left a word in a hurry and walked out. On the deck, she covered her mouth in pain, slumped down on the bench, and looked up at the stars and moon, out of breath. She was now exhausted and sleepy, and even her stomach was twisted. What she had just drunk was not beer, but imported champagne and foreign wine, so she was drunk in an instant. Shu Tian was so tired that she could hardly open her eyes and her head was dizzy. She unconsciously closed her eyes and almost fainted after a while. "Hello, beauty. Are you drunk?" "Beauty, what''s wrong with you? Wake up!" "Hey, don''t be silent. Is there something wrong with her..." Suddenly, Shu Ting heard a man''s greasy voice and whisper and she struggled to sit straight from the bench. Then, she saw a hugely magnified face. Startled, Shu Ting immediately stood up. "Who are you?" "Forget me so quickly? You really have a bad memory. I just yed cards with Mr. Meng. Have you forgotten?" The man deliberately emphasized the word "Mr. Meng". Others did so as well, especially the owner of the yacht. It was strange. But after his reminder, Shu Tian remembered, "It''s you." She remembered that the man in front of her had won little tonight. However, he was not unsatisfied even if he lost as if he had expected to lose. Seeing that Shu Ting had remembered him, the man smiled delightedly and took two steps forward. Before he said something, Shu Tian backed away warily. "Just stand there." The man kept approaching her until Shu Ting was forced into a corner. "Beauty, you must not feel well after drinking all night. Shall I find a quiet ce to let you have a rest?" Shu Tian immediately understood the man''s intention. She frowned angrily and refused quickly. "No, I didn''t drink much." "You can''t even walk steadily. You must have drunk a lot." The man suddenly grabbed Shu Tian''s wrist. "Ah!" Shu Tian yelled in shock, "Sir, please be decent!" "Hey, why do you pretend to be a good girl? No one who gets on the yacht is pure. I can give you anything Meng Shichuan offers you. As long as you satisfy me, I promise I won''t let you suffer." As he spoke, he had already picked Shu Tian up. Shu Tian struggled with her feet kicking, but it didn''t work. She was almost desperate as she was carried to the front of the door. At present, on the sea of H City, it was impossible for her to ask someone for help! Just as the two of them were at a standstill, a cold voice suddenly came- "How dare you touch my woman?" Chapter 122 Chapter 122 Hearing the voice, the man finally stopped. He let Shu Tian down but did not let her go. Instead, he held her firmly on the shoulder and turned his head to see who dared to disturb them. He did not expect to see Meng Shichuan standing on the deck not far away with an unknown expression. His girl? Meng Shichuan had been letting the woman drink all night and he looked indifferent. That was why he think that she was just a tool for him, but why... For the first time, Shu Tian couldn''t wait to see Meng Shichuan. Although Meng Shichuan was no better than the man beside her, she just felt that Meng Shichuan wouldn''t force her. "I told you to let go of her, did you hear me?" In the dark of the night, the yacht was parked on the sea. It wasn''t windy tonight and was a good day to sail. But the man was scared when he looked into Meng Shichuan''s terrifying eyes. He seemed to be so scared. Just as he was about to jokingly let go of Shu Tian, his shoulder suddenly ached violently before he could take his hand off, and then followed by the smell of scorch. "Ah!" The man let out a cry of pain and knelt on the ground. His uninjured hand cradled another bleeding arm. Shu Tian stood stiffly where she was, watching the man fall and the bullet passes through his bones. Even though the sound was muffled, she could still hear the "Click." She could even feel the power of the bullet passing by. She was almost shot. "You have a lot of guts." The shooter did not move and quickly made the second shot as if the muzzle was not aimed at a person, but a target, "Which part did you use to touch her?" "No, Mr. Meng, no!" The man was not arrogant anymore, but begging in fear, "I was wrong. I didn''t know she was your woman, or I wouldn''t have dared to do that!" "You didn''t know?" Meng Shichuan seemed to smile at the answer as if it was very funny. Soon, the smile disappeared and he resolutely raised his gun and pointed at the man''s head! Shu Tian was frightened but thought quickly. At the moment Meng Shichuan was about to pull the trigger, she stepped forward and stood in front of the man. "Don''t shoot!" She opened her arms to protect the man. Meng Shichuan''s startled. He immediately loosened his index finger, which was about to pull the trigger. He had ayer of sweat in his palm, "Get out of here!" The man seemed to have found a shelter, so he knelt on the ground and hugged Shu Tian''s ankle, "Please save me. I don''t want to die. He will kill me. He really will..." Shu Tian turned around and red at him, "Get your dirty hands off me!" Property ? N?velDrama.Org. The man immediately withdrew his hands and was about to cry. She looked at Meng Shichuan with a pale face and said with a trembling voice, "Don''t shoot." Meng Shichuan did not put down his hand holding the gun. The sea breeze blew past and there was a silent confrontation. Shu Tian did not dare to look at the murderous look in Meng Shichuan eyes. She gently closed her eyes and said in a harsh voice, "Please." In an instant, the air on the yacht seemed to have condensed. Shu Tian could see nothing and imagine the pain and burning of the bullet through her stomach. However, nothing happened. A few secondster, her wrist was grabbed and she was dragged forward by a huge force. When she opened her eyes and saw Meng Shichuan''s broad back, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But seeing the seemingly endless deck passage, she suddenly became frightened and tears uncontrobly fell from her eyes. Meng Shichuan pulled her to the railing at the back of the deck. The choppy sea was a step away. Shu Tian was a little dizzy and forced herself to look away. "You don''t want me to kill him?" The man said in a sarcastic voice, "Do you enjoy being yed by him?" Shu Tian was not angry at the harsh words at all. She was especially afraid that her retort would make Meng Shichuan lose control and push her into the icy sea. Her blue gauze dress fluttered in the wind, and there was endless darkness behind her. A few clouds could be seen faintly in the sky skimming over not very clearly. The woman lowered her head and did not make a sound. Meng Shichuan wanted to lift her chin but he only touched the wet liquid. The man frowned and lifted her face. Her small face was already full of tears, and she was crying sadly. Warm tears flowed down her small chin into his palm and suddenly became hot. She cried. When he realized she was crying, his first reaction was to let go of her. Shu Tian slowly squatted down if she had lost her strength. She sobbed, "Why are you doing this to me..." "I saved you, but you torture me. Why..." "You almost killed me and the man just now. How can you kill people..." She said intermittently and her voice was so soft that Meng Shichuan felt as if his heart was clenched. Meng Shichuan looked at Shu Tian, who squatted down at his feet and frowned even tighter. He stood there and fumbled for the cigarette. Only then did he remember that the doctor had banned him from smoking because of the injury. He was very upset. He was upset because Shu Tian was crying. She was so aggrieved, angry, unwilling and regretful. Her cry made him panic. After some time, Shu Tian''s legs were numb from squatting, and the crying gradually stopped and turned into sobbing. Meng Shichuan exhaled heavily, "I''ll take you back." Shu Tian was about to wipe her tears when she heard this, she couldn''t help but be shocked, "What?" "I''ll take you back." The man repeated grumpily as if he would go back on his word the next second. Shu Tian bit her lip, not knowing whether to believe him or not. Meng Shichuan did not give her time to hesitate and turned around and walked forward. After walking a distance, he did not hear the footsteps behind, so he stopped and looked back. Shu Tian was still standing there. "Why are you standing there? Follow me." Only then did Shu Tiane back to her senses and follow him at a distance of two or three meters, taking small steps forward. It turned out that Meng Shichuan did not lie to her this time. Not long after, the yacht returned to the shore. The injured man was nowhere to be found, and the blood left on the board disappeared. Shu Tian did not dare to take a second look and hurriedly got off the yacht and walked out of the door along the way of the coffee shop. Atst, Meng Shichuan grabbed her wrist but couldn''t say anything when he saw her red and swollen eyes. His thin lipspressed slightly, and his bangs blocked his expression. He only said, "Forget it. You can go." Chapter 123 Chapter 123 After leaving the coffee shop, Shu Tian took a taxi back to her house. When she opened the door, she saw Fu Qingtong sleeping soundly on the sofa and even forgot to change her clothes. At that moment, she felt so relieved. In order not to wake up Fu Qingtong, she tiptoed to the bathroom and turned on the tap. As the water sshed, she couldn''t help but burst into tears. She did not dare to cry too loudly. Thinking of what had happened just now, she desperately missed someone at this moment. She missed the man who always saved her from danger, the man who gave her a second chance to live. She suddenly felt so scared that Li Han wouldn''t care about her anymore. Maybe... He didn''t even look for her at all. Shu Tian did not dare to think about it any further. She was afraid that she would copse if she thought too much about it. Tang Zechen''s infidelity made her very careful and fragile when dealing with rtionships. So when Jiang Mengyao answered the phone and sent the photo to her, she waspletely devastated. All she wanted was that the person she loved loved her as well. Why was it so difficult? Shu Tian just begged not to see him so soon, but at the same time hoped that he would find her. In fact, she had already fallen in love with him, but she didn''t know it. N?velDrama.Org holds this content. [...] Li Han got the news about Shu Tian three dayster. After checking all kinds of information about her, he identally found Fu Qingtong''s boarding information. Fu Qingtong was on the same flight as Shu Tian and checked into a local luxury hotel that day. After checking with the hotel staff, he confirmed that the two of them were staying in a suite. Li Han had been looking for them for two days and didn''t eat or sleep well. He was exhausted. The staffs of hispany were very afraid of him, and several people were even traumatized because of being scolded by him so many times. After Zhang Bikun told Li Han the news, he immediately booked the earliest flight. It was no first ss, no business ss, or his private ne. He took the economy ss. Before Li Han left, Ling Junze was worried about him and especially visited him in Imperial Vi. As soon as he entered the vi, he smelled a strong smoke. Although he was an asional smoker, he was choked by the smoke and began to cough. He shouted, "Did you light the house?" The man was sitting on the sofa in the living room. Ling Junze could feel the fatigue and anxiety just by looking at him from behind. Ling Junze walked over to the man. He saw the crystal ashtray on the coffee table was filled with cigarette butts and there was no cigarette ash left by the cigar beside it. "Why do you smoke so many cigarettes? Do you wanna kill yourself?" Ling Junze was a little angry. He reached out to put out the cigarette butt in his fingertips but was dodged by the man. "The cigarettes keep me alive." Hearing what he said, Ling Junze was a little shocked. He shouted at him, "Li Han, if you smoke like this, you will copse before you find her!" Li Han shook his head andughed. "It doesn''t matter, as long as I can find her." Ling Junze was furious and said, "Is it worth driving yourself crazy for a woman?!" "It''s worth it." The man said firmly. His deep eyes were bloodshot fromck of sleep. "It''s worth it because of her." Ling Junze was shocked by the stubbornness and seriousness in his eyes. He had never seen him so crazy for a woman before. Was this person still the man who considered interests before doing anything? No, he wasn''t. The man in front of him cared about nothing but Shu Tian now. At this moment, Ling Junze finally realized that his buddy was falling in love, and even he was convinced by this love. He had no doubt that if this man copsed, thest thing on his mind would still be Shu Tian. It was at this time Ling Junze finally understood Li Han''s love for Shu Tian. Seeing him like this, Ling Junze sighed deeply. Suddenly, he came up with a n. He said to Li Han, "Even if you don''t care about yourself, you don''t want Shu Tian to see a sloppy, unhealthy man in front of her, do you?" As he expected, his words worked. Li Han paused for two seconds, then put out the cigarette butt in his hand, got up, and walked towards the second floor. Ling Junze looked at him and said. "Where are you going?" "I stink with smoke. I want to change my clothes." Well, he felt that Li Han was an incurable romanticist. At this time, he was still afraid that Shu Tian would hate his smoke smell! Li Han seemed to sense Ling Junze''s emotions, he stood at the stairs and said in a hoarse voice, "I hope you understand. I can''t lose her." [...] An hourter, at the J City airport, the ne to H city was about to take off. After he finished his study abroad, it was the first time in these years he took the economy ss. Zhang Bikun was worried about Li Han and insisted on taking the ne with him. Li Han agreed. Seeing that Li Han was sitting in the small space and couldn''t even stretch out, Zhang Bikun really felt aggrieved for him. He said, "Mr. Li, why don''t you rest for a while. I''ll call you when the ne arrives." Li Han didn''t seem to hear what he said. Because he was sitting next to the window, he opened the sun visor and looked at the white clouds under the ne in a daze. He said to himself, "How did she feel when she left?" Did she ever hesitate, or feel sad? He didn''t dare to think. He was afraid that Shu Tian would give him a cruel answer. When he was winning thewsuit, she suddenly disappeared without any reason. He didn''t even know where she was going. It made him think of her day and night. How he wished that she was as unwilling to part with him as he was. [...] The flight was smooth all the way and took more than three hours. Finally, the nended safely at the airport of H city. As the cabin door opened, everyone left the passage one after another. Li Han was greeted with the warm wind of H City. The weather here waspletely different from J City that was cold and freezing. The driver was already waiting for him by the side of the road. While he was putting Li Han''s luggage into the car, Li Han looked at the passers-by around him and thought about the petite and cute body. He seemed to see the girl holding her luggage alone, standing in front of the crosswalk and waiting for the traffic light. His heart began to ache again at the thought of her. The driver turned around and saw his boss standing there staring nkly ahead in a daze. He opened the door and said to him, "Mr. Li, please get in the car." Li Han retracted his eyes, stepped forward, bent over, and got into the car. Looking at the rapidly retreating street view from the window, he clicked on the navigation APP on his phone and located her hotel. Looking at the distance narrowing down, he knew he was about to see her soon. Thinking of this, he felt he was alive again. "Drive faster." He ordered as calmly as usual, but only he knew the anxiety and panic in his voice. Chapter 124 Chapter 124 Shu Tian did not know that Li Han was almost worried to death because of her disappearance. After experiencing fear from Meng Shichuan that night, Shu Tian left the ind the next day and went to another ind next to it. Compared to this new one, the old one was a tourist attraction. The ind they were in now, where many people came and went, was not as private as the old one. They didn''t choose this one before for the sake of their safety, but now, Shu Tian was more afraid of ces with fewer people. Meng Shichuan was like a poisonous gas, who might exist wherever there was air. Although Fu Qingtong drank far too muchst night, she vaguely remembered what happened and followed Shu Tian. The two packed their luggage and took a ship to another ind. Instead of booking a hotel, they stayed in a luxurious BNB. At the BNB, Fu Qingtong was so worried that she couldn''t help but ask, "Tian, will Li Han go crazy with worry because you suddenly disappear?" Fu Qingtong''s question triggered Shu Tian''s endless sadness she tried to suppress in her heart. Shu Tian closed her eyes, afraid that she would burst into tears. "I don''t know." She didn''t know? Fu Qingtong frowned. Seeing that Shu Tian was in pain, Fu Qingtong stepped forward and grabbed her cold little hand. "What happened between you and Li Han?" Shu Tian had endured her sadness for so many days with no one she could pour out her heart with. There were all kinds of bad thoughts running through her mind. Now, Shu Tian couldn''t hold it back any longer. She buried her face in Fu Qingtong''s shoulder, telling Fu Qingtong what happened. "What?!" Hearing that Li Han was with Jiang Mengyao, Fu Qingtong''s mouth dropped open. "Is Li Han blind or crazy? How could he be with Jiang Mengyao..." She met Shu Tian''s sad gaze in disbelief and Fu Qingtong''s heart also ached. Fu Qingtong tried to calm down and not bring more sadness to Shu Tian, asking, "Is there any misunderstanding?" Shu Tian smiled miserably. "Even if there is, he should exin it to me the next day." "He didn''t exin?" Fu Qingtong was even more surprised. Shu Tian acquiesced. "WTF, impossible. How could Li Han be taken with Jiang Mengyao? He has eyes but fail to see." Fu Qingtong cursed and then continued asking, "But are you sure there''s no misunderstanding?" Shu Tian did not know how to answer Fu Qingtong''s question, because Shu Tian had not contacted Li Han since Jiang Mengyao answered her call. Because of this, the hope in Shu Tian''s heart slowly turned into despair. Seeing that Shu Tian was silent, Fu Qingtong sighed deeply. But Fu Qingtong had a rtively good impression of Li Han, so she didn''t draw a conclusion, "Tian, although I only met Li Han a few times, in my opinion, he doesn''t look like that scumbag Tang Zechen. Li Han is not that kind of man who fools around with Jiang Mengyao. Shu Tian also knew it. But... "Jiang Mengyao answered his phone. Even if I could bear it, Li Han exined nothing after she sent a picture of them naked on the bed." Shu Tian looked up and asked Fu Qingtong, "Tong, what do you think I should do? What else can I do?" Fu Qingtong sighed again and again. Although Fu Qingtong wanted to believe Li Han, she couldn''t. N?velDrama.Org holds this content. She couldn''t even find him a reasonable excuse. Should shefort Shu Tian? It seemed that Shu Tian didn''t need herfort because it would make Shu Tian feel worse. "Take a good rest. Leave it out until you''re in a good mood and until we''re back." Fu Qingtong could onlyfort Shu Tian with those meaningless words. Li Han who caused the trouble was the one who could solve it. [...] [At 7:30 pm, at the Penins Hotel''s surveince room, H City.] A group of people in police uniforms stood in front of the screen, carefully checking the time and watching the surveince footage. The pungent smell of smoke in the room came from the man sitting in the office chair. "I''m sorry, sir. These twodies checked out at nine this morning. They''re not here." "This video recorded what happened at the front door of our hotel. You can see that at 9:10 am, the two Listening to the hotel manager, Li Han sat in the chair and slowly closed his eyes. He was in such a mess. His eyes hurt when they were exposed to air. He smoked too much. Every bite was extremely spicy, but it could lift his spirits. He came, but she left. It was as if they were using telepathy. Shu Tian left less than ten hours before he arrived. Was it tacit understanding? Li Han''s deep and sharp eyes stared fixedly at the delicate figure on the screen, and his sexy thin lips curled up in a mocking arc. His deep concern for her slowly grew into hatred! He had been so worried about her these days. He worried that her life might not be smooth and that she might meet bad people, but she didn''t. Shu Tian travelled with her friends and even put on a beautiful dress. She was not sad or drained. How could she hide from him? He was waiting to see what she could do. After watching the surveince video, Zhang Bikun stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Li, what should we do now?" The man said coldly, "Search for Shu Tian. We''ll find her as long as she''s in H City. Check Fu Qingtong''s registration as soon as possible. We''ll go over now." Zhang Bikun was frightened by Li Han''s cold voice. As Zhang Bikun gave the order, he secretly nced at Li Han''s gloomy face, and could not help but feel nervous for Miss Shu. Mr. Li treated Miss Shu well, but it was also his love which made him in such a mess. Thinking of the scene that Miss Shu was found by Li Han, Zhang Bikun trembled. Zhang Bikun hoped that the two of them would not have any more misunderstandings and hoped that they could have a good talk, resolve their conflicts, and be together happily. "Please don''t let any quarrel ruin their love for each other," Zhang Bikun thought. Fifteen minutester, the public security bureau of the H City sent a message. It was Fu Qingtong''s current hotel address. The information was so detailed that it even showed her room number. After getting the message, Li Han immediately walked out of the monitoring room. The cold aura around him made people dare not approach, or even say a word. As soon as he walked out of the hotel, a warm and humid sea breeze blew across his face, but his heart was so numb. It was fine if she said he was cruel or perverted, but he swore to make Shu Tian know the price of escaping after he found her! [...] In just an hour, the ck Bentley was parked outside a hotel on another ind. The valet stepped forward to take Li Han''s car key. Li Han went around him, striding into in silence expressionlessly. Behind him were the police officers who showed their ID. Li Han got the room card and swiped the elevator open. The people behind him were about to follow him but Li Han stopped them. Li Han''s dark eyes were not sparkling anymore. "Stay here. I''ll go up myself." Chapter 125 Chapter 125 Zhang Bikun shook inside with fear. He hesitated before advising carefully. "Mr. Li, Miss Shu may have done this for a reason. Don`t be too angry. Listen to what she said." He said it in a mild tone, but how could Li Han not understand what he meant? Li Han was not good at expressing himself and did not know what to say. He just paused, nodded slightly, and entered the elevator without saying a word. The number on the room card was 1603. They lived on the sixteenth floor. The elevator door closed and he watched the numbers on the elevator screen rise one by one. He felt his heartbeat quicken. As if it had knocked on his eardrums, making him feel weak. It was the first time Li Han had experienced such a feeling. He had been too stressed for several days. He could not calm down when suddenly getting rxed. Ding-dong, the elevator reached the appointed floor. With long strides, he found 1603 ording to the floor sign. Behind the door, everything was invisible. But he seemed to be able to see the little people in the room, staring at her with burning eyes. For four days, three nights, and countless hours in a row, he searched for her from J city to H city, thousands of miles, and two seasons. Finally, he found her. Li Han''s eyes were red, hot, and swollen. His handsome face with three-dimensional features finally showed a trace of emotion, but soon this emotion was suppressed by him. Take a deep breath, raise his hand, knock on the door, knock three times. There was no sound inside. One second, two seconds, five seconds... "Hello, who are you looking for?" A very familiar voice came through the door, low and soft. Although he could not see her face, he could imagine how she was talking now. Really... She was right in front of him. Li Han leaned against the door and cleverly avoided the distance that the cat''s eye could reach. He was afraid that she would not see him when she realized it was him. Property ? N?velDrama.Org. Inside the door, there was no answer. Shu Tian frowned and asked again, "Hello, who are you looking for?" Outside the door, it was still quiet, but the knock on the door repeated. Seeing that she was standing still, Fu Qingtong also walked over and asked, "Who is it?" "I don''t know. There was no answer outside." "Huh?" Fu Qingtong raised her eyebrows and opened the door without thinking. At that moment, a huge, unquestionable force pulled the door open and a figure appeared through the door. Shu Tian looked at the familiar face in front of her,pletely frozen. All the words were stuck in her throat, and her eyes fixed on him. Except for him, everything around her seemed to have disappeared. Her heart raced, and then it seemed as if she was riding a roller coaster to the lowest point. She could feel nothing but a cold breath from him. He was wearing a white shirt with his sleeves rolled up to the crook of his arms. His straight legs were neatly wrapped in his suit pants. His broad shoulders and narrow waist were tall and straight, even if he didn`t say anything. Standing there alone, he attracted her eyes. The man lowered his eyes and his eyes fixed on the woman''s taut and pale little face. He has no emotions in his dark eyes, not even a ripple. But Shu Tian knew that he must be very angry. There was a significant distinction between concerns and indifference in his world. If he didn''t care, he wouldn''t be here. All her breathing was taken away, and Shu Tian forgot to react. It was only a few seconds, but it seemed that a century had passed. In the dream, the man who appeared countless times a day in her fantasy was really standing in front of him at this moment. He was so calm and confident as if he figured that she would be here. After recovering from the shock, Shu Tian''s first reaction was to close the door! She quickly touched the door and was about to exert her strength when he stopped her halfway. No matter how fast she was, he was still faster than her! The pulse on her wrist was held by him tightly, which made her very painful. As if a cat was trodden on its tail, and immediately exploded. She resisted desperately and shouted at the top of her voice, "Let go of me!" Instead of letting go, the man tightened his grip, as if he was feeling her in this way, not an illusion! Seeing the confrontation between the two of them, and Shu Tian was about to cry, Fu Qingtong could not care about anything else and tried to break the man''s fingers with both hands. Unfortunately, even though she tried her best, he did not move at all. Instead, she was pushed out of the door rudely. There was a loud bang, and the door almost hit Fu Qingtong''s nose. She looked at the closed door and was stunned for a few seconds, then frantically hit it with her hand, one after another, " Li Han,e out here! I forbid you to bully Tian! Let''s talk to each other face to face. You dare!" Hearing that, Li Han was depressed, and the one in front of her refused to cooperate. He simply bent down slightly and carried her directly to his shoulder. He strode into the bedroom and locked the door. Shu Tian blushed. When she was put down, she was pulled back as soon as she took a step to run to the side. Li Han fixed his eyes on her face as if he had a strong hatred of tearing her apart and reorganizing her. She could not stand it. However, he did not do that. Instead, he stretched out his long arm and locked her in his arms. The strength of the man''s arms was very strong, with a kind of determination and extreme strength, as if he wanted to embed her whole body into his bones and integrate her with him. Shu Tian was forced to rear her head back, unable to move. She was hugged tightly by him, and the familiar breath instantly surrounded her. The strength of resistance just now was pulled away from her limbs bit by bit. She smelled the pungent smell of smoke, which made her ufortable. "Four days and three nights, Shu Tian, why did you leave me?" His voice was unbelievably hoarse, and what made her even more devastated was that there was an uncontroble tremor in his voice. Did he cry? She could not see his face but could feel the trembling of his tall body. Shu Tian closed her eyes tightly and forced herself not to think anymore. Her heart ached since, in just a few days, he had grown haggard. His stubble was not shaved clean, and his eyes were bloodshot. She saw it all, but she was also sad. She had a lot of things to ask. Shu Tian forced herself to be ruthless and moved her shoulders out. "Let me go first." He didn''t say anything and hugged her even tighter. Shu Tian could hardly breathe. She wanted to be strong, but when she repeated this sentence again, she couldn''t help but choke. "Let go of me..." She seemed to have exerted all her strength to say that. Actually, she didn''t want him to let her go at all. Chapter 126 Chapter 126 After Shu Tian said this, her tears fell uncontrobly from her eyes and quickly wet Li Han''s chest. Li Han felt that her tears were burning hot, and his eyes were slightly red. "Do you miss me?" How could she not? The answer came to Shu Tian immediately, but she didn''t say it, or she couldn''t say it. How she wanted to forgive him! He hade all the way here from thousands of miles away. He must be exhausted from the travel. She felt pity for him and part of her was asking her to forgive him. However, as soon as she closed her eyes, she could recall the photo Jiang Mengyao had sent her and hear Jiang''s shrill voice. She couldn''t forgive him! This wasn''t what she would do! Thinking of this, she broke free from the embrace that she had been longing for. She looked up and met his attentive gaze. She felt the hole in her heart again. After a long while, she offered to ask, "Li Han, do you have anything you want to tell me?" The man''s eyes were deep. He seldom revealed his true emotions, but at this moment, he could not hide them. He asked with sharp eyes, "What do you mean?" "What do you mean?" Shu Tian felt it was so ironic, and the four words shattered herst ounce of hope. How could he ask such a question, at this very moment? What right and ce did he have to question her? Shu Tian''s face turned cold, and the warmth between them disappeared. "Since you have nothing to say, why are you here?" Li Han stared at her fixedly. His tone sounded gentle, but there was a hint of threat in it. "I''m here to take you back." "I won''t go back with you." Shu Tian answered without hesitation. She would never follow him until he exined himself. She wanted her significant other to bepletely honest with and devoted to her. However, Li Han mistook this reply as a firm rejection. He had been worried about her, but now he was disappointed. His hard heart ached. Thinking of what Zhang Bikun had said before he went upstairs, Li Han didn''t want to argue with her. Neither would get any benefits in that case. He took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out, put it to his lips, and lit it. His movements were so natural because he had done it countless times these days. White smoke rose and separated them. Li Han''s expression was a little hazy. Shu Tian lowered her head and looked at his clean and expensive ck leather shoes. After a while, Shu Tian''s chin suddenly hurt. Li Han raised her chin, forcing her to look up at his frightening eyes. Before he spoke, he coughed uncontrobly, looking ufortable. "If you don''t go back with me, where do you want to go, huh?" Shu Tian felt deeply hurt. She put her hand on his hand, but she was stubborn and refused to beg for mercy. Her voice unconsciously rose a little higher. "No matter where I go, I won''t go back with you!" He didn''t exin the nude photo. Why should she go back with him? He was being angry for no reason. Li Han was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. He kept recalling the sentence that no matter where she went, she would not go back with him. It seemed that she had changed and be bolder. So what? Since he could make her like this, he could ruin the new her. Shu Tian could feel the man was burning with anger. She got uneasy, and her heart was thumping. He suddenly leaned closer to her lips, still holding her chin. Despite her struggle, he raised her chin slightly, and his lips moved past the corners of her lips. "There must be a reason not to go with me. You have no trouble now after thewsuit, so you don''t want to be with me?" Shu Tian''s eyes widened, and her whole body trembled uncontrobly because of his sharp words. Tears were about to fall several times, but she held them back. She was so angry and disappointed that she chuckled instead. "Is that how you think of me?" After thewsuit... Did he really not know why had she left? Or was it that his affair with Jiang Mengyao was nothing at all to him, so there was no need to exin himself? Shu Tian was confused. The moment she opened the door and saw him, she was scared, flustered, but also happy and moved. However, she now felt that maybe she had never truly understood Li Han. Li Han''s eyes were filled with disappointment and anger. The tension made his bones ache. "If that''s not the reason, exin to me." He wanted her to exin why she had left without a word and hidden from him. Shu Tian smiled even more while shaking her head. She was so fragile and pitiful. "Li Han... Li Han..." She called out his name repeatedly. She sounded like she was calling him or muttering to herself. Her emotions changed drastically in a few seconds, and finally, she struggled violently. "What do you want me to say? I''ll tell you... Let me go, let me go!" Li Han looked at her who cried and smiled. Her face was wet with tears again. She looked so sad, but it was also her who had left, not him. Shu Tian was trying hard to break free but couldn''t. This was the same with her emotions. She wanted to vent her emotions, but she couldn''t, just like a headless fly couldn''t find its way. All her negative emotions reached a point. Finally, she lost control and shouted, "You want a reason, don''t you? Okay, let me tell you because, in my eyes, you are no different from Tang Zechen now. You are useless and disgusting, and I don''t want to see you! You''re right. I left after thewsuit. What can you do? You were the one who said that you would win thewsuit for me if I stayed with you. All of this is a deal to you. I''m just honoring my words back then. Are you happy now?" The man stood still without any expression, and his deep eyes turned gloomy. Just now, the woman he loved and who always wore a smile said that he was disgusting andpared him to her good-for-nothing ex-husband. She even said that their rtionship was just a deal and that he had started it, and she now wanted to end it. How ironic that was! All his devotion became so cheap suddenly.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! His heart hurt like hell as if it had been torn apart bit by bit. Thest thing he wanted to hear and to see had happened. "A deal?" He put on a sarcastic smile while frowning and it faded in just a second. Her arm was grabbed. He turned around, despite that she almost fell down a few times, dragged her to the bed, and pressed her on it... Shu Tian''s face turned pale with fright. She saw Li Han, standing at the end of the bed, spreading her weak legs with one knee. His handsome face was gloomy as he unbuttoned his shirt, his belt, and then his pants... Chapter 127 Chapter 127 Shu Tian knew what this action meant and what he was going to do. They had done this countless times. She rejected it a first, butter she epted it gradually. However, she was so scared that her whole body trembled now... She screamed and resisted desperately, but the man was almost crazy and lost his self-control. His thin, cold lips did not kiss her but left dark red marks on her one after another. He had been angry and wanted to punish her for her ruthlessness. But when he touched the woman''s fragrant body, his desire, which had been endured for several days, rose in an instant, making him gradually lose control. A cold wind blew in. Her skin was exposed to the air and had goosebumps. The man saw her reaction and thought she hated him. "Why? Does my touch make you feel so ufortable now?" Thest clothes on her body were ripped off by him, and she was overwhelmed by his humiliation. Shu Tian shouted out angrily, "Yes! I would rather die than let you touch me! You are dirty!" Dirty? Hearing this extremely harsh word, the man paused for a moment, "Dirty? Okay, if you think I''m dirty, you can''t keep clean!" His warm breath sprayed on the side of her neck, and he wasn''t gentle at all. She had no choice but to obey him. Instead of kissing her, he let her lie on the bed like a puppet. Shu Tian cried, "Li Han, don''t do this to me. I''ll hate you. I... Ah!" Before she could finish speaking, he ignored her resistance and pushed himself in. All her words were stopped. Under the edge of the bed, it seemed like an abyss. If she was not careful, she would fall down... Both of them were silent, leaving only Fu Qingtong''s incessant shouts outside the door. "Li Han,e out! I tell you, if you dare to do anything to Tian, I will not let you go!" "Tian, are you okay? Are you okay? Tell me something..." "Come on, isn''t there anyone in such a big hoteling to deal with it?!" The intermittent voice came through the door, and every word was so depressing. The man did not have any tenderness as if he was just venting his lust. Shu Tian refused to make a sound, and Li Han deliberately ground her down bit by bit. The psychological resistance and physical reaction tormented Shu Tian. She was so ashamed to face the feeling that she was aroused. Tears kept falling into the pillow and made it wet. "Despise me? Don''t want me to touch you?" His voice sounded like a Raksha from hell, "But you are so wet." Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! Shu Tian bit her lips, her white teeth even bleeding her lower lip. She slowly closed her eyes and felt that she was so cheap and embarrassed. First, she gave her heart to Tang Zechen, but at least she kept thest line of defense. But she gave everything to Li Han, but in the end, she was just pressed on this small bed by him and was humiliated in every way. What did she do wrong? Why did God punish her again and again? Shu Tian didn''t understand. She was just in pain. Her body was in pain, and her heart was also in pain. Every breath was great torture to her. After he finished speaking, Shu Tian did not make a sound again. She was like a rag doll, fragile and at the mercy of him. After some time, outside the room, Fu Qingtong''s voice was hoarse, and the man finally stopped. Her fair back was still stained with the man''s burning sweat, but her body had a piercing chill. There came the sound of the belt buckle. After he finished doing it, he didn''t want to give her any tenderness, not even a word. Shu Tian smiled bitterly, and she endured the pain of her body and wrapped the quilt around her body. She took another long dress and a long-sleeved sunscreen from the wardrobe. She went into the bathroom to clean herself up and put on her clothes. Except for some shocking dark red marks on her neck, the rest of the ce was well hidden. Without saying a word, she opened the door and walked out. Li Han did not stop her. There were all his people downstairs. Even if she had wings, she could not escape from this hotel. Just as Fu Qingtong was about to lower her raised hand, Shu Tian opened the door from inside. Fu Qingtong was anxious, "Are you..." Fu Qingtong wanted to ask Shu Tian if she was okay. Halfway through, when she saw the bruises on Shu Tian''s neck, she couldn''t make a sound. "You..." Shu Tian met Fu Qingtong''s surprised eyes and opened her mouth, unable to say anything. She was so embarrassed now that she wished she could find a hole to hide from anyone. "Li Han did it?" After Fu Qingtong asked, she already had the answer in her heart. There were only two people in the room. Who else could it be if it wasn''t him? Without waiting for Shu Tian to answer, she rushed straight into the room and walked angrily to Li Han. The room was still filled with unspeakable ambiguous atmosphere, and it was obvious that Li Han and Shu Tian had done it. She was so angry that her lungs were about to explode. She waved her hand and tried to p the man on the face, but she was blocked before she could touch him. Li Han''s eyes were full of coldness, "Get out." Normally, Fu Qingtong would not say another word, but when she thought of the marks on Shu Tian''s neck, she couldn''t bear it, "Li Han, you fucking force a woman. Are you still a man?" "Get out." "I''m not getting out!" Fu Qingtong took a step forward and looked at the torn skirt that had been thrown to the ground, but the man''s shirt was intact. She gritted her teeth and said, "Li Han, why are you bullying her like this?!" Li Han didn''t want to exin and disdained to say this to outsiders, but when he heard that Shu Tian''s best friend had said it, he couldn''t help it. There was an imperceptible fragility in his harsh voice, "It''s not me who''s leaving. It''s her." Fu Qingtong seemed to hear a joke, "You have an affair with another woman, but you me Shu Tian for leaving you. You fucking think women can''t live without you, don''t you?!" The man''s fingertips, which were fastening cufflinks, froze suddenly because of her words, and his handsome eyebrows suddenly knitted, "Have an affair with another woman?" Fu Qingtong sneered, "Stop pretending! Jiang Mengyao has already called Shu Tian and sent her the nude photos of you. What else can you argue about?" Jiang Mengyao? Call? Nude photos? These words shed through Li Han''s mind, and he thought quickly. A few secondster, he grabbed Fu Qingtong''s clothes by the cor and lifted her up half a centimeter, "Make it clear. What''s going on?" Chapter 128 Chapter 128 Fu Qingtong was suddenly pulled up by Li Han and was stunned for two seconds, but she soon became angry again. Shu Tian was innocent, and it was Li Han who did the wrong thing. Why was he so arrogant? "You know it! What did you do when you went to Q City on a business trip? Do you think Shu Tian doesn''t know it?" "What did I do?" "You!" Seeing that Li Han was knavish, Fu Qingtong was so angry that she was speechless for a moment and red at him fiercely. "Have you forgotten about what you did with Jiang Mengyao? You know it best!" What had he done with Jiang Mengyao? Li Han didn''t remember when he was with Jiang Mengyao. Li Han thought over the matter and finally had a clue. "You mean, Shu Tian mistook me for hanging around with Jiang Mengyao?" "It''s not a misunderstanding. The nude photo was sent to Shu Tian''s phone through your phone. Do you think it''s a misunderstanding?" Fu Qingtong spoke very aggressively and was angry. In her eyes, Li Han was now aplete scumbag. "And you forced her to do it just now. You beast... Hey, where are you going? I haven''t finished talking!" Li Han left Fu Qingtong and walked quickly to the door. He opened the door and found that there was no one in the corridor. Fu Qingtong followed and looked a little upset. "Where''s Tian? She was here just now..." Why did Shu Tian disappear in such a short time? Fu Qingtong was anxious, and Li Han was even more anxious. Thinking of what he had done to Shu Tian, Li Han gradually calmed down and he felt afraid. Li Han remembered the time he met Jiang Mengyao at a social event in H city. If she had schemed against him, then the social event was definitely not a chance encounter, but a conspiracy. Li Han understood why Shu Tian left without informing him and was so indifferent after seeing him. Damn it, he didn''t figure it out! Li Han was so regretful that he even wanted to p himself. As he walked out, he took out his phone and called Zhang Bikun. "Get someone to search Jiang Mengyao''s location and catch her. No matter what method you use, I have to ask her personally." On the other end of the phone, Zhang Bikun answered quickly, "Yes, Mr. Li." "Now let the policee up immediately. Shu Tian has run away and I don''t know where she is going. Keep your eyes on the door." Zhang Bikun suddenly thought of the hotel manager''s instructions half a minute ago. "By the way, Mr. Li, the hotel staff just said that there are two back doors to the hotel. And there is no one in the west door. Do we need to send someone over there?" Hearing this, Li Han''s face darkened. He ordered in a cold tone, "Yes, let someone keep an eye on it immediately!" "Yes, sir!" After hanging up the phone, Li Han didn''t hesitate and went straight to the monitoring room. The hotel was different from other ces. There were many people in the hotel, not to mention it was a semi- residential hotel, so it was even harder to find a person. Li Han could only hope that Shu Tian didn''t leave through the back door and she was still in this hotel. Fu Qingtong followed in. She secretly nced at Li Han and walked to the corner with her cell phone to make a call, but no one answered. Fu Qingtong remembered that this time when Shu Tian came out of J City, Shu Tian didn''t even bring her cell phone with her. Fu Qingtong also had no idea where to find Shu Tian. H City was different from J City. If Shu Tian didn''t want them to find her, it would be impossible for them to find her. Fu Qingtong could only hope that Shu Tian was safe. They checked the surveince video at the hotel exit and found that Shu Tian didn''t leave yet. Then the security personnel in the monitoring room checked the floors one by one in the surveince video. Twenty minutester, they finally saw her in an elevator. They found that Shu Tian went to the top floor. Shu Tian walked out of the elevator and ran from the corridor to the staircase at the corner, which led to the hotel rooftop. Li Han shook inside in fear. He strode out and pressed the button on the top floor directly when he got into the elevator. Li Han was really afraid that something would happen to Shu Tian. If something really happened to Shu Tian, he would be the one who made all this happen. Li Han had never been so nervous. His palms were instantly covered in sweat, his breathing was rapid, his blood pressure soared, and he felt dizzy. In less than ten seconds, he felt as if he had been dragged out of the icy water. The elevator door opened again. It was a quiet corridor outside, but Li Han felt cold all over. He walked out and walked in the direction of Shu Tian. Without hesitation, he opened the door to the rooftop. With a click, the gray concrete rooftop appeared in front of him. He saw the air conditioner external unit and steel bars, but he didn''t find Shu Tian. Li Han stood still. His hands, which were hanging by his side, tightened but he felt a sense of exhaustion that made him unable to exert any strength. His neatly tailored suit pants fluttered in the wind, and the hair on his forehead gradually became messy. He came back to his senses and ran to the edge of the railing of the rooftop. At such a height, This belongs to N?velDrama.Org. the crowd looked like ants, but fortunately, Shu Tian didn''t jump to her own death. Then there was suddenly a weep. Li Han heard it behind him. Li Han froze and looked for the woman. He walked over quickly and saw Shu Tian curled up on the dusty ground in a corner behind the huge bellows. Her hands wrapped around her knees, and her whole face buried in her arms. Shu Tian''s body trembled violently, especially after he came over. Thinking of what he had just done to her, Li Han felt even more guilty. He just looked at her quietly for a long time. His legs bent slightly, then he squatted down and raised his hand to touch her shoulder. Li Han wanted tofort her, but Shu Tian resisted fiercely. "Don''t touch me!" Her eyes were red, and her nose was also very red, but none of them was as obvious as the marks on her neck. Li Han left the marks. Li Han''s hand froze in the air. A few secondster, he put it down. He lowered his eyes and said in a hoarse voice. "Okay, I won''t touch you." Shu Tian lowered her head and tears fell down from her face. She did not look at him as if it was torture for her to look at him again. Li Han didn''t say anything. Seeing that she was crying so sadly, Li Han was heartbroken, but he couldn''t do anything. "Don''t cry. It''s all my fault." Shu Tian set her mouth in a grim line and cried even harder. "I didn''t know what Jiang Mengyao had done to you. I misunderstood that you wanted to leave me, so I was angry. For the past four days, I kept looking for you. I was disappointed, desperate, and never expected you to suddenly disappear. So I was afraid, angry, and wanted you to exin it. If I had known this, I would never have done this to you." Chapter 129 Chapter 129 The man''s voice was hoarse, and he had been overworked for days, coupled with the violent fluctuations of his emotions, which made him weak, but he still held on, for the sake of exining to his beloved woman. Only he knew how regretful he was when he heard Fu Qingtong''s criticism. Thinking of what he had just done, he almost didn''t dare to face her. Shu Tian was weeping, with her eyshes fluttered, which made him heartbroken. "I was having a social gathering that night. After hanging up the phone, I went back to my room, but I didn''t expect Jiang Mengyao to trap me. Now that I think about it, she probably drugged me, then took the opportunity to answer your call and sent you the photo." His voice was severe. "But I can assure you that nothing happened between her and me. I''ve already asked Zhang Bikun to go to the hotel to investigate the monitor. You can also ask Jiang Mengyao in person." Shu Tian snorted and finally spoke. "I don''t want to ask." At this point, she didn''t know who turned out to be correct. She hated Jiang Mengyao and med Li Han for his distrust. However, Shu Tian realized that she didn''t trust him entirely in hindsight. She believed that he wouldn''t have an affair from the bottom of her heart. However, she could not control her suspicions and waited for his exnation when she received the photo. Shu Tian had never thought that Li Han didn''t know anything about it. Now that she had heard such a result, she did not know whether to cry orugh, be sad or happy. Li Han frowned as if he could understand what she was thinking. "If I knew what happened, I would exin it to you." Shu Tian wiped away the tears on her face and cried. "I don''t know anything. I''m going crazy when I see you two stay together. I''m afraid that what happened before will recur to me again. I can''t handle it well because you''re more important to me than Tang Zechen. Everything Jiang Mengyao has done to me is a nightmare. I''m dead scared." So she ran away and chose not to face it all. However, after Shu Tian left J city, she realized that she could not forget him. Li Han''s image came back clearly to her no matter what she was doing. She would think of him when she saw the beautiful scenery, and he was also the first person who shed through her mind when she encountered danger. Li Han had already inadvertently fit into her life and became inseparable. "I know, I know everything." Li Han''s heart ached as he heard her sobbing. "I''m sorry. It''s my fault. I was wrong." That arrogant man kept apologizing to her, and he even got down on one knee to get close to her. "Baby, please don''t cry." Her tears were a deadly weapon that Li Han could never ignore. As soon as she cried, all his pride was gone. Li Han couldn''t help hugging her, with his chin on top of her head. Although he wanted to embrace her tightly, his movements were gentle and careful, afraid that he would scare her again. Shu Tian did not want to talk to him for the time being because she did not forget his evil deeds just now. She reached out to push his chest a few times but failed. Unexpectedly, she pushed him over with a bit of effort. Gazing at the man half lying on the ground, Shu Tian was shocked for a long time before she came back to her senses. There were still tears on her eyshes, but she forgot to cry. "Li Han?" She called out tentatively, but the man did not react at all. Shu Tian was almost terribly scared. She got down on her knee and touched his forehead, finding that he had a fever. "Li Han, what''s wrong with you? Wake up. Don''t scare me!" However, no matter how she called, the fallen man never opened his eyes again. Only then did Shu Tian realize that not only did Li Han look bad, but there were heavy dark circles beneath his eyes and an abnormal blush on his cheeks. When he spoke to her just now, his voice was unusually hoarse. Maybe he fell ill? Shu Tian took out Li Han''s carry-on phone, which was locked. She tried some passwords but failed. Finally, with an unrealistic fantasy, she input her birthday. The screen unlocked with a click. Shu Tian was sort of shocked, and her tears welled up again. "Boohoo, idiot." Shu tian cried as she called Zhang Bikun''s number. He picked up in a few seconds. "Mr. Li." "It''s Shu Tian. Li Han and I are on the top floor of the hotel now. He has a fever and has fainted. Bring someone up quickly." [...] Twenty minutester, Li Han was sent to the nearest hospital. The doctor gave him an injection and made aplete checkup for him. Li Han had a high fever and was dehydrated. Moreover, he suffered from pneumonia. Hearing this result, Shu Tian was a little surprised. "Is there any other problem, doctor?" "It''s okay. As long as the patient doesn''t smoke and watch his diet, he''ll be fine after a few days of injections." Shu Tian nodded with aplicated expression. "Thank you." "My pleasure." Zhang Bikun returned to the ward after sending the doctor away. Looking at the man on the bed who was still in aa with a pale face, he was also upset. He whispered to Shu Tian beside him, "Miss Shu, do you have time? I have a few words to talk to you alone." Shu Tian hesitated for a moment, then nodded and left the room. At the entrance of the hospital''s safe passage entrance, Zhang Bikun nced at the woman standing on one side. She was small and delicate, exuding a sense of peace and softness, but she was a tough woman from Mr. Li''s words. "You can call a spade a spade." Shu Tian knew that their rtionship had already gone beyond working rtions. Zhang Bikun smiled. "It''s not a big deal. I want to tell Miss Shu how Mr. Li came through these days." Shu Tian gazed at him without saying anything and listened quietly. "On the first day you left, Mr. Li went to check up on your whereabouts. When he found out that you were in H City, he immediately asked an acquaintance in H City to look for you. During the day, he dealt with thepany''s affairs, always with a cigarette in hand. He was very gloomy. One day, I ordered a meal and sent it to the office. There was a dish that you liked to eat. Mr. Li gazed at it for a long time, but he didn''t take a single bite." Zhang Bikun paused for a moment and seemed to recall the scene, "Two dayster, we finally found your ce in H city. After canceling countless meetings, Mr. Li Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! rushed over directly and found out that you had changed the hotel. We advised him to take a rest beforeing over, but he refused and looked for you without rest. His pneumonia was probably caused by his poor rest and overwork coupled with excessive smoking." Shu Tian''s eyes turned red again. She raised her hand to cover her mouth for fear that she would cry. "Miss Shu, as a subordinate, maybe I shouldn''t have said such things to interfere in the boss''s private life, but I want you to understand Mr. Li''s feelings for you." Zhang Bikun took a step back. "If you say too much, I hope you don''t mind." "Has he been looking for me these days?" Shu Tian''s voice quivered. Zhang Bikun nodded without hesitation and said firmly, "Yes, Mr. Li never stopped looking for you." Chapter 130 Chapter 130 Shu Tian cast her eyes down, shook her head, and sobbed, "I don''t know..." This man had never mentioned a word to her. Even when he had just tried to exin it, he had never said anything about that. Proud as he was, he was still willing to do all this for her, and he even chose to hide it for fear that she would feel guilty. "Miss Shu, I''ve never seen Mr. Li torture himself like this for the sake of any woman other than you. Nothing is more painful for Mr. Li than your departure." Having been working with Li Han for so many years, Zhang Bikun knew him very well. Before Shu Tian appeared in his life, Li Han loved his work the most, but now he didn''t want anything. He even gave up his meetings, regardless of however important they were, just for the purpose of finding her soon. Zhang Bikun watched his despair and felt poignant. "Mr. Li doesn''t know how to express his feelings. Miss Shu, I hope you can be more considerate of his character. Please don''t feel offended by my words ..." "I won''t." Shu Tian interrupted him softly and exhaled deeply. "Thank you for telling me. If you didn''t, maybe I''ll continue to me him." Communication between them was too scarce. He was not good at expressing himself, and her heart was too fragile. "It was indeed an ident that night, but Mr. Li would never have an affair with Miss Jiang. I have already looked for her and you can ask her in person then." Zhang Bikun was afraid that she would continue to misunderstand and quickly exined.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! Shu Tian wasn''t in the mood to dwell on her misunderstanding now, as all she wanted to do was to go back to the ward and see if his fever had subsided. After their sincere talk, Zhang Bikun left Shu Tian alone with him. In the ward, everything was quiet except for the feeble sound of the humidifier. The man on the bed was pale and his lips were chapped due to theck of water. The doctor said that he should not drink water yet and could only rely on the infusion to relieve his thirst. Because of pneumonia, his breathing was a little dull, and even when he was lying, he appeared to be troubled by a strong sense of fatigue. Shu Tian stood by the bed and watched. The longer she examined him, the more she couldn''t bear her emotions. It seemed that he had not been in good health recently. It hadn''t been too long after he had had hisst fever, but this time his illness was even worse. The incandescent light overhead shone on his face, where his brows furrowed slightly even when he was asleep. Shu Tian thought it was because of the light, so she turned around and was about to turn it off, but just as she took a step forward, her wrist was grabbed. "Don''t go." A dry voice came from behind. She abruptly halted and turned her head to look. The man''s eyes were closed and he did not wake up, but he grabbed her with his hand in which the doctor had inserted the needle. Shu Tian was taken aback. Afraid that the needle would move, she quickly put his hand back on the bed. Then she wanted to let go of him, but he tightened his grip on her. "Don''t go..." Shu Tian felt as if she had been punched in the heart, a sour feeling swelling and pervading within. It turned out that... he was so insecure. She squatted down and leaned her head against his hand. Her voice was soft as she coaxed, "I won''t leave. I''ll leave only when you wake up." She cooed him with gentle words extremely patiently. Herfort seemed to work, as the grip of his Shu Tian heaved a sigh of relief and pulled the chair over with another arm with difficulty. She held his hand and sat down to wait. Minutes ticking away, she was also exhausted after a few days of light sleep. Not long after, she leaned over and fell asleep beside the bed as well. When Fu Qingtong heard of it and got to the hospital, it was already twenty minutester. She anxiously asked the doctor for the ward number and rushed over. Zhang Bikun could not stop her. After all, she was Miss Shu''s friend and he did not dare to offend her. Dashing to the door in one breath, Fu Qingtong was about to turn the doorknob when she inadvertently looked through the ss bar of the ward door. Her hand that was to open the door immediately stopped, and Zhang Bikun ran over just in time. "Miss Fu, you can''t..." Fu Qingtong raised her hand to interrupt him, but she did not look back at him as she fixed her eyes on the ovepping figures of a couple in the ward. Zhang Bikun followed her gaze and was also taken aback. In the ward, the woman''s petite figurey on the side of the bed, her head resting next to the man''s arm. Both of them slept soundly, but their joined hands did not part. Darkness spilled as if it was the ckest ink outside the window, but the scene inside the ward was unusually warm and cozy. Zhang Bikun breathed a sigh of relief and diverted his gaze at Fu Qingtong. "Miss Fu, Mr. Li has been looking for Miss Shu for a long time. Now that their misunderstanding has finally been resolved, let''s leave some space for them." "Misunderstanding?" Fu Qingtong finally turned around and pointed at the man in the door. "Is it a misunderstanding that he slept with another woman?" Zhang Bikun had no choice but to repeat the exnation again. Seeing that she was still skeptical, he said, "Don''t worry. If there is really something fishy, Miss Shu will not forgive Mr. Li so soon." Fu Qingtong believed that, though. Shu Tian attached great importance to the purity of love, and she had clear principles and limits, thus by no means likely to turn a blind eye to anything unagreeable for her. But now it seemed that they had indeed rectified the misunderstanding ording to the situation inside. Thinking of her absent-mindedness and abnormality these days, Fu Qingtong waved her hand at Zhang Bikun and left without further ado. [...] When Shu Tian woke up again, it was already the next morning. She opened her eyes to find an extremelyfortable pillow and a slightly hot chest instead of the bed of the ward... Looking at the magnified handsome face in front of her, she took a double-take to recall what had happened yesterday, but... She remembered that she had fallen asleep in a chair. Why was she in bed now? They were so close that in the blink of an eye, her eyshes identally brushed against the man''s chest, causing a slight itch. Li Han had woken up once in the middle of the night. Although his fever had subsided, some of the inmmation still lingered after the high fever. Seeing her lying awkwardly on the side, he simply carried her to the bed. The hospital bed was not spacious, and he held her in his embrace until dawn. Their eyes met, and the warm morning sun shone into the ward. The two of them looked at each other through a thinyer of misty beams, feeling fabulously unreal. "You''re awake." In the end, he broke the silence and held her even harder. Shu Tian buried her face in his chest and whispered to reply, "Yeah." "I carried you upst night when I saw you sleeping ufortably." The man exined in a low voice, afraid that she would resist again. After a moment of silence, he still couldn''t smother his impulse to ask, "I''ve exined everything I need to. Are you still angry?" For some reason unknown, after hearing him, Shu Tian felt her face burning. She cleared her throat and responded feebly without adequate confidence. "I''m." "Okay." The man replied naturally and generously. "I''ll let you interrogate Jiang Mengyao yourself today. Do whatever you want to vent out your anger." Hearing his childish words, Shu Tian quirked up her lips unconsciously, but still groused with a tinge of pretended irritation in her voice, "Do you think that would be all done?" "Whatever else you want." Shu Tian didn''t know how to answer. After mulling over it, she looked up at the man''s sexy chin and muttered sincerely, "I hope you can recover soon." Chapter 131 Chapter 131 After having a talk Zhang Bikun, his words about Li Han had been haunting her mind as she could not help but worry at the thought of his life these days and his current physical conditions. No matter what, health was the priority that no one should treat carelessly. Li Han did not expect her to say that. Connecting her previous and present attitudes in mind, he guessed that someone might have exined something to her. His heart skipped a beat as a warm tenderness rippled from within. He raised his hand and caressed the woman''s smooth cheek, staring at her with burning gazes. "I miss you so much these days." "Me too." Shu Tian''s eyes reddened uncontrobly at the mention of this. "Ever since I left J City, I''ve missed you constantly." Li Han felt grieved when he heard her, and he kept whispering apologies to her, afraid that her tears would trickle down. "It''s my fault that you had misunderstood it. I''ve already regretted forcing you to do that. Baby, forgive This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. me, will you?" His voice was very low and his attitude humble. He earnestly and sincerely begged her for forgiveness. Shu Tian didn''t want to. She felt tortured and wanted to pinch him for a few more days, but when she heard his tone, she couldn''t utter a word of refusal. She despised herself for not being firm enough, but there was no way to stop her distress and care for this man. He was suffering the same as she was. The man caressed her lips with his slightly rough thumb and lingered there. His deep eyes stared at her for a moment, filled with surging emotions and lusts. It seemed that his gazesting a second longer would engulf her. Shu Tian didn''t know how to answer him, and she leaned forward to kiss the man''s dry lips at a whim. Their soft lips joined, and neither of them closed their eyes as they looked at each other, confirming that it was not an illusory dream. They were familiar with each other, and their physical contact quickly ignited a burning fire. He wrapped his other arm around Shu Tian''s waist and pressed his broad palm against her waist, which was so slender that he could hardly stifle the urge to hug her. Days of yearning and missing poured out at this moment, and the temperature around him gradually rose. Shu Tian clearly felt the change in the man''s body and left him before he lost control. After the kiss, both of them gasped for air. His acute pneumonia had not yet recovered, and he was also slightly out of breath. Shu Tian looked at him calming down and asked with a blush, "Are you alright?" Li Han put a hand casually on his forehead and said in an anxious tone, "No." Shu Tian sensed the burning gaze on her and hid under the quilt. She whispered to persuade him, "You''re not fully back to yourself yet. Take a rest." "You''re beside me. I can''t sleep." Shu Tian understood what he meant and bit her lips shyly. He didn''t say anything and she was silent too. After a few minutes, he eased up a little and said, "How have you been these days in H City?" Shu Tian dredge her memory, only to realize that all the scenery and all her fun these days had never left a mark in her heart. When she recalled anything, her missing and suffering for him emerged. Apart from the incident with Meng Shichuan, Shu Tian told him everything that had happened. In the end, she could not hide her excitement and raised her hand to touch his gentle face, her eyes slightly casting down. "In fact, I didn''t want to leave you. What I said to you in the hotel was also an angry outburst. My disgust to you,paring you to Tang Zechen, and that our love was just a transaction were all angry words I said to irritate you. At that time, you forced me so hard, and I misunderstood your rtionship with Jiang Mengyao, so I was mad and lost control. I didn''t think so at all." "Oh?" The man listened quietly with a hint of yfulness in his eyes. Shu Tian almost trembled from his gaze, and she nodded with a stiff neck. "Really, at first I was forced to be with you, butter, I am perfectly willing to. You have already upied the most important position of my heart." "Shu Tian..." Li Han felt thest tinge of chill in his body being driven away by her words. He was so happy that she said that. Shu Tian seemed to be immersed in her own little world. Looking at his excited expression, she seemed to be encouraged and opened her lips coyly. "I think I''ve fallen in love with you." If she hadn''t left him, if it weren''t for Jiang Mengyao''s design, and if she hadn''t left for H City, perhaps she wouldn''t have understood her true feelings. She thought that at most she fancied him, and when he didn''t need her one day, she could leave with a light heart. However, life gave her the most realistic blow. She could not ignore it at all, and she could not leave with an easy heart. He had already be a part of her life and affected her whole life. The man''s eyes widened, with a sudden light filling his entire eyes. His maic voice trembled with ecstasy. "Say it again." Shu Tian blushed at his question. Sheepish and embarrassed as she was, the girl in his arms still looked up and repeated word by word, "Li Han, I''ve fallen in love with you." No matter what would happen in the future, she chose to tell the whole story today and to face it honestly. She exhibited her love in front of him, with no more doubt and distrust, to let him see her strong feelings. As for what would happen in the future, she was willing to bear it. At least she didn''t want to see them estranged because of misunderstanding. Li Han looked at her shy and determined look and felt his heart melt. His thin lips touched her smooth forehead. After five seconds, he stood up slightly and fixed his eyes on her, with her reflection deep in his eyes. "I can''t guarantee anything, but as long as I, Li Han, live, I will not disappoint your love. Tian, are you willing to believe me?" He tried his best to assure her. Shu Tian knew that he had not promised her love in a long life because he still had psychological barriers. But he said that as long as he was alive, he would not let her down, which was more touching than all other love words. When his hot lips fell, Shu Tian slowly closed her eyes. She vaguely heard the man''s rapid heartbeat as her body was wrapped in his arms. The loneliness, confusion, fear, and insecurity when she left alone were all melted in this warm embrace. All the feelings returned to normal at this moment. Chapter 132 Chapter 132 Three dayster, Li Han was discharged from the hospital. The doctor said he''d better stay in the hospital for another week, but he was very busy and Ling Junze had rushed to the hospital with his medical team after getting the news. There were many inconveniences in the hospital so after making sure Li Han''s body could take it, they decided to get him discharged in advance. On the day Li Han left the hospital, the hospital leaders all came to see him off. On the one hand, Li Han was of high status. On the other hand, Ling Junze was a big shot in the medical field. Everyone wanted to make his acquaintance. Their flight was in the evening so they could take their time. The three of them went back to the hotel first, not the one she had booked with Fu Qingtong, but another luxurious hotel. Li Han thoughtfully prepared a room for Fu Qingtong too. In the afternoon, Ling Junze had a long conversation with Li Han. Seeing that their talk wouldn''t end soon, Shu Tian decided to hang out with Fu Qingtong. They''de here together so she didn''t want Fu Qingtong to feel being trifled with. Shu Tian knocked on the door and walked in after getting permission. Li Han was sitting on the sofa across Ling Junze. They both had grave looks. Shu Tian walked in and glimpsed a cigarette butt in the ashtray. She frowned and asked, "Did you smoke again?" Li Han couldn''t make it to the bathroom when she''d knocked on the door so he''d stubbed it out in a hurry. Ling Junze looked at Li Han in amusement, enjoying seeing him scolded. But Shu Tian wouldn''t criticize Li Han in front of his friend. She just came to his side and whispered with concern, "The doctor said you should stop smoking before your pneumonia fully recovers." Li Han grabbed the woman''s little hand and kissed it naturally. "You want to speak to me?" Shu Tian gently pulled her hand out. "Don''t change the subject. Don''t smoke." The man chuckled helplessly when he met his good friend''s eyes. Instead of feeling restrained, he was happy. "Okay. As you wish." "I want to hang around the ind with Tong this afternoon." Li Han nodded. "Okay. Don''t go too far. My subordinate will follow you to keep you safe. " "No." Shu Tian didn''t like to be followed. "I want to go by ourselves. It''s ufortable to have someone following us." "I''ll ask him to stay far. It''s the only way I can rest reassured." Shu Tian wanted to refute, but Ling Junze interrupted her. "Just listen to him. You were apart for a few days. Now that he finally found you, he wants to keep you in his pocket and take you everywhere he goes. He cares you. Just let him feel at ease." N?velDrama.Org holds this content. He was jesting but meant what he said. Shu Tian blushed. She could feel it too. Since Li Han had found her and made up with her, he''d been very attentive to her. Although restraint ensued, she did not detest being restrained in such a sweet way. Shu Tianpromised. "Fine." "Come back early. Call me if you need anything." As he spoke, he brought her hand to his lips and kissed it again. Shu Tian nced quickly at Ling Junze and withdrew her hand shyly. "I''m leaving." She turned around but the man grabbed her wrist and pulled her back easily. He tilted his angelic face slightly up and raised his eyebrows. "I want a goodbye kiss." Shu Tian felt her cheeks burning. She would do it if they were alone but in front of the third party, she was too shy to kiss him. "Don''t mess around. Doctor Ling is still here." "Oh, no. I avert my eyes. You two just ignore me." Ling Junze turned his head, his posture funny and hrious. Shu Tian met the man''s determined gaze and knew that he insisted. She bent down and slightly brushed her lips across his. "Happy now?" The man smiled. "Is that even a kiss?" Shu Tian red at him. "Of course." "You never learn how to do it, don''t you?" Li Han murmured and yankek her into a kiss before she could react, his hand on the back of her neck. His tongue dug inside her mouth and caressed hers. The kisssted for half a minute and made her pant heavily. When he let go of her, he looked quiteposed as if he was not the one who had started a wet kiss, which was in stark contrast to the fluster on Shu Tian''s face. A beast in finery. Those words came to Shu Tain''s mind. He was apletely different man after he took his clothes off. She withdrew her hand. "I gotta go." "See youter." After the door was closed, Ling Junze sat up straight again with one hand on his neck. "That''s a long kiss. I can''t even move my neck now." Li Han nced at him in silence. After Shu Tian left, the atmosphere in the room turned somber again. Ling Junze looked at him drinking tea calmly and asked curiously, "What''s your n? Are you going abroad to meet Jiang Chujing, or are you going to let here back?" Li Han did not answer. He gazed into the distance, lost in thought. Ling Junze continued, "George has sent me the test results. Everything is fine. You''d better make up your mind when things still can be changed." "I''ll let here back," Li Han said, "She''lle back sooner orter. I can''t stop her. It''s her wish. I can''t do her wrong. Her parents would want that for her too if they were alive." Ling Junze sighed, "You are pushing yourself too hard. You''ve done so much for her. She would''ve died without you." Li Han had been paying her expensive treatment and done everything else he could for her these years. Jiang Chujing was simply was a huge burden on him. In the eyes of Ling Junze, Li Han had long paid off the debt of gratitude he owed Jiang Chujing''s parents. However, Li Han still stubbornly thought he was beholden to her. He was a sentimental man and couldn''t change it. Leaving Jiang Chujing behind was harder for him than killing himself. However... "Then what are you going to do? If Jiang Chujinges back, Shu Tian will find out sooner orter." Beans would be spilled eventually. Li Han might be able to hide it from her for a short time, but she would find it out sooner orter. When the shit hit the fan, it would be toote to fix things. His rtionship with Jiang Chujing was so special. Li Han understood Ling Junze perfectly. He pursed his thin lips and said in a tense voice, "I''ll keep it from her for the time being." Chapter 133 Chapter 133 "How are you going to hide from her?" Ling Junze was worried about it. "This is nothing else but a living person. I''m afraid it''s really difficult for you to hold back this." Li Han thought for a moment and said, "I''ll ask George in detail. If everything goes well, I won''t stop Chujing from returning home. There''s a ce suitable for recuperation in the north of the city. I''ll get someone to arrange her to live in." "In the north of the city?" Ling Junze thought for a moment. Imperial Vi was in the south of the city, which waspletely in the opposite direction. This could also avoid some coincidences to happen. Although J City, as a financial metropolis in the country, had arge poption and a big area, after all, they all lived in the same city, so there was no guarantee that Shu Tian will not encounter Jiang Chujing. Thinking of this, he couldn''t help but ask, "By the way, does Jiang Chujing know something about Shu Tian?" "Probably not, but the reports about me and her are everywhere in the country. She will surely know "Then will she...e to Shu Tian?" "I''ll make it clear to her." Li Han has made up his mind about this. Ling Junze was a little surprised. After that, he also felt relieved. "You''re finally willing to face this problem. Jiang Chujing loves you. If you can''t give her what she wants, it''s better to cut off your rtionship as soon as possible." Ling Junze rubbed the warm teacup with the end of his finger. The steam rising from the hot tea seemed to cool down, through which his sharp eyes can be seen. Cut it off? He also wanted to do that, but he was afraid that he couldn''t really harden his heart but upset his lover. [...] That night, Shu Tian and Li Han flew back to J City. They were in the first-ss cabin and the seat space was sorge that Shu Tian''s legs and feet could be stretched out. Looking at the night scene N?velDrama.Org holds this content. outside the window, she suddenly felt a little unreal. She really came back. Just as Shu Tian was looking at the flying clouds in the sky, her hand on the knee was suddenly held. Then a man''s deep voice came into her ear, "What are you thinking?" Shu Tian withdrew her gaze and turned to the man beside her. His originally closed eyes were now open and fixed on her. She smiled. "Nothing. I just felt a little emotional." The man''s inquisitive gaze swept over every part of her face as if he was going to see through her. For a long time, he took down the thin nket on his body and covered it on her. "Don''t think too much. Have a good rest." The warmth of his body still lingered on the nket. When it touched the back of her hand, her cockles of the heart were warmed. He dimmed the light above, and Shu Tian suddenly felt a little sleepy. She chased away the messy thoughts in mind, closed her eyes, and gradually fell asleep. After a smooth flight, the nended on the tarmac in J City. First-ss passengers got off the ne first. When the door opened, a cold wind blew in, making Shu Tian sneeze. "Achoo!" She hugged her arms and her body couldn''t help trembling. Suddenly, a thick coat was draped over her shoulders. She looked up and saw that Li Han had already taken off his clothes and only wore a thin shirt. He hadn''t recovered from his illness, so Shu Tian was a little anxious and hurriedly wanted to take off the coat and return it to him. "You..." Li Han did not raise his eyelids. He turned sideways and took the clothes handed over by Zhang Bikun. It was a ck down jacket. The size was too small and it was a little awkward to wear on him. It was Shu Tian looked at his exposed wrist. "I''ll wear this. This coat is too small for you." "It''s okay." He didn''t take it seriously and walked forward. Now it was approaching the end of the year and the temperature was so low that people could see their breath when they spoke. He strode forward as if he could not feel the cold. Shu Tian was anxious. "Let''s change. You haven''t recovered..." The man stopped, and she also stopped talking. Li Han was fed up with her nagging, but when he saw the little face with worry in front of him, he couldn''t get angry at all. He could only sigh helplessly, "I don''t want you to wear other men''s clothes, so just be obedient and wear mine, okay?" After that, he raised his hand and rubbed her head. Her hair instantly became messy. Shu Tian pushed the man''s big hand away and when she was about to speak, the man turned around and walked away. "Hey, you..." She stood there and watched in astonishment as that tall man walked further and further away. Behind her, Zhang Bikun said with a suppressed smile, "Miss Shu, it''s cold. You''d better quickly get in the car." Shu Tian nodded politely, pulled up the hat behind his neck, and put it on her head. Therefore, she could conceal her blushing face. She really felt warm in her heart. After getting in the car, the warm air swept over her body in an instant, and the cold feeling faded away. Li Han secretly watched her from the corner of his eye as she took off her coat and only wore a tight- fitting knitted sweater. His heart was stirred. However, he quickly looked away without being found and said to the driver, "Go back to thepany first, then to Imperial Vi." Shu Tian''s hand, which was undressing, stopped. "Are you going back to thepany?" "Well, I haven''t been there for a few days. A lot of things need to be handled." He answered in a low voice, without looking at her. Instead, he stared at the phone in his hand, as if he was processing documents. But only Li Han himself knew that there was nothing on the screen. He just couldn''t look at his big clear eyes. Shu Tian didn''t doubt anything, but just worried him. "You''re not recovered yet, and you have to continue working. Can you bear it?" "It''s okay. I won''t work for too long. I''ll be back soon." As he finished speaking, a phone call suddenly came in. His phone was still in airne mode, which he forgot to change after getting off the ne. Seeing the name of the caller on the screen, Li Han frowned and hung up without saying anything. Then he switched the phone back to airne mode and put it back in his pocket. Shu Tian didn''t notice anything unusual about him. She took out a box of bubble tablets from her bag and gave it to him. "Stop drinking coffee. If you really want something to drink, just drink this." Li Han took it. The warmth of her palm seemed to still leave on the stic package, but such tenderness tortured his heart. The man closed his eyes, afraid that one more look would reveal his emotions. Perhaps Ling Junze was right. It was too difficult to hide it. He was already tortured in his heart. [...] The car stopped downstairs in the HY Law Office building. Li Han kissed her lips before getting out of the car. Shu Tian watched the man in the ck coat walk into the revolving door until he disappeared from her sight. The driver looked in the rearview mirror. "Miss Shu, shall we go?" Shu Tian came back to her senses and felt an indescribable uneasiness in her heart. She thought of Li Han''s tired and evasive expression just now... She shook her head, avoiding herself to think too much. She kept telling herself not to think too much and not to misunderstand him. After thinking for a while, she took a deep breath and said, "Let''s go." Chapter 134 Chapter 134 Returning to the office, Li Han immediately called back the missed call. It was not long before it''s picked up. A woman''s delicate voice came from the microphone. "Han, did I disturb you?" Li Han loosened his tie with one hand, sitting on the sofa in anguid and rxed posture. "I was in a meeting just now. What''s the matter?" On the other end of the phone, listening to him, Jiang Chujing tightened her grip on the phone. "Nothing special. Dr. George told me today that I''m in good condition. He said he had talked to you about my return home. I wanted to be informed." Jiang Chujing was a very smart woman, who knew Li Han well besides his weakness, so she knew exactly what kind of tone she should use to talk to him at any time. For example, at this moment, she said with a hint of begging, because she knew that Li Han would not refuse because of her parents. "George said you''re recovering well. If there''s no ident, you can get the results after a full-body test the day after tomorrow." He paused and continued after a few seconds, "If it turns out normal, I will start to arrange for you to return home." Although Jiang Chujing had already known what it would be before the call, she felt relieved when she heard Li Han say it himself. She looked down at the news some time ago. It was about Li Han and Shu Tian. The man protected the woman who was pushed to the ground, with the caption that he recognized Shu Tian. Jiang Chujing lost control of herself while watching. She forced herself to look away in case she broke down her emotions. "That''s great. I will do as George says so that I can return home early to stay by your side." Hearing this, Li Han changed the subject. "I''m arranging a ce for you to stay back home. You can rest assured of it, and don''t worry about anything." He said this with certain selfishness in mind. He was afraid that Jiang Chujing would hear about Shu Tian, so he hoped that she would listen to the arrangement and not pay attention to anything else. But Jiang Chujing felt that Li Han was caring about her, so she acted cutely. "Han, thank you. If my parents were still in this world, they would be very happy to see this." At the mention of the two elders of the Jiang family, Li Han only felt he had greater responsibility and replied calmly, "Yes, they would." ncing at the watch on the wall, pinching the center of his eyebrows, he casually made an excuse. "I have a meeting now. Talk to youter." Jiang Chujing lowered her eyelids in dismay, feeling that Li Han had changed a lot. He called to talk about the business and was about to hang up immediately without saying anything else as if calling her was a helpless thing. Even though she was ming him in her heart, she still said kindly, "It''s okay. You should go first. I''m fine. Just take care of yourself." "You too. See ya." After hanging up, he threw the phone on the table with a bang. He leaned back against the sofa and called his subordinate after a while. "Send someone to clean up the house in the north of the city tomorrow." "Yes, Mr. Li." The man sounded capable notwithstanding his hoarse voice. "Does it need some other decorations?" "No, I''ll arrange the rest." "Yes, Mr. Li." Everything was arranged. Li Han became anxious, thinking Jiang Chujing would return home soon. What he was most afraid of being discovered and being known by Shu Tian were all getting closer to his life. What he was most desperate about was that he had no way to stop except to watch. If it were anyone else, he would notpromise, but Jiang Chujing was the daughter of his savior. He had lots of reasons to refuse, but he couldn''t. That was what he owed the Jiang family and Jiang Chujing. It was a responsibility he had to shoulder for the rest of his life. Thinking of this, he felt annoyed, suffering in the dilemma of repaying his kindness to Jiang Chujing and concealing the fact from Shu Tian. [...] It was already 6: 30 pm when he returned to the Imperial Vi from thepany. Entering the door, he smelled an appetizing smell of the dishes. Changing his shoes, walking into the dining room, Li Han saw the woman was standing in front of the kitchen counter in an apron, busy. When she saw himing back, she turned around and smiled sweetly at him. "You came back just in time. We can eat soon!" The warm yellow light fell on her body, which made people feel warm. Li Han walked over and hugged her slender waist from behind. His sexy chin rested on her shoulder, and he tilted his face slightly to kiss her cheek. His breath brushed her neck, which made Shu Tian tilt her head to hide. "Come on..." "Miss me?" Holding a spat in her hand, she replied shyly in a low voice, "Yes." Getting the answer he wanted, he held her more tightly in his arms and tilted his head to kiss her. Shu Tian couldn''t concentrate because of him. Fortunately, the soup was already cooked. She turned off the stove and red at him. "Dinner time!" Looking at her fair and slightly red face, he raised his hand and brushed away the hair on her temples. "It''s good to see you when I get home." She felt a little sad when she heard this. Thinking of the days when he went home alone to face the empty room, she felt guilty. "I''m sorry. I won''t let you be alone anymore." He caressed her cheek and said gently. "Okay." Shu Tian personally cooked three dishes and a soup, all of which were light. Thinking that his pneumonia was notpletely cured, she didn''t make any greasy dishes, which was all noticed by Li Han. He answered a phone call after dinner, and then he took her to the study on the third floor. Shu Tian was confused. "What''s the matter?" "I''ll show you something." He said mysteriously. Closing the door, he sat down, pulling a small swivel chair over for her to sit, and turned on theputer, where there was a connection request as usual. Shu Tian watched him connect, but she froze the moment she nced at the screen. In the scene, four burly men were surrounding a slender woman. The woman''s hair was long and draped over her back. Because her back was facing the camera, Shu Tian could not see her face clearly. But even so, she recognized the person at a nce through her figure and her sound. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! It was the one she would never forget , Jiang Mengyao. Chapter 135 Chapter 135 Why was she here? Shu Tian stared at the person on the screen. Not long after, the man in the room began to question Jiang Mengyao with a very fierce tone, "Tell me what happened that night! Exin it to me word for word!" On the screen, Jiang Mengyao was pushed by a man and almost fell to the ground. She was so scared that she trembled and then sobbed as she spoke, "That, that night, when I met Mr. Li at the banquet, I got an idea to make use of this meeting to stir things up. During the meal, Mr. Li went out to smoke. I took advantage of this interval to put the hallucinogen in my bag into his cup... But I swear! I absolutely didn''t do anything else. I just took two photos to send to Shu Tian, and answered a phone call to Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! deliberately hint at her. I didn''t do anything else!" Jiang Mengyao was caught in a state of panic with her tone fluctuating. Shu Tian could feel the extreme fear even through the screen. In particr, the men looked awfully fierce. They surrounded Jiang Mengyao in the room. There was not much space and the light was very dark, which could emit a sense of horror that the men simply stood there. "Why did you do that?" The man asked again and again. Jiang Mengyao gradually copsed under the pressure. She squatted and knelt on the dirty concrete floor, crying and defending herself, "I just wanted Shu Tian to misunderstand. I didn''t really do anything. I just didn''t want to see her get everything so easily!" As Shu Tian listened, she unconsciously leaned towards Li Han. He reached out and held her shoulder. His voice seemed to be covered with ayer of ice, "Take her away. You know what to do next." "Yes, Mr. Li." One of the strong men replied and dragged Jiang Mengyao on the ground directly to the door. Finally, the door closed and they disappeared from the monitoring screen. A few secondster, there was a tearing cry from a woman outside the door. Shu Tian got goosebumps from the shrill voice and looked uneasily at the man beside her, "What did they do to Jiang Mengyao?" "Don''t worry, she will not die." There was not a ripple between Li Han''s eyes as if he had not seen or heard anything. This was the way this man treated the things he hated. He could not brought up a trace of sympathy, especially after Jiang Mengyao did such a thing, he wished he could torture her to death. Shu Tian felt a little terrified. Although she hated Jiang Mengyao, what she saw was more than she had imagined. She would not die. That was the bottom line. Would she lose her arms and legs? Would she be... After the imagined possibilities shed through Shu Tian''s mind, she didn''t dare to think anymore. She held Li Han''s hand and could still hear Jiang Mengyao shouting in her ear, "Li Han, please don''t do this." The man lowered his head and met the woman''s trembling pupils. His big palm patted her on the back withforting force, "It''s okay. If you''re scared, I''ll turn it off." As he spoke, the other hand tried to turn it down. Shu Tian stopped him and shook her head seriously, "Don''t do this. Jiang Mengyao did something wrong, she could be punished in a normal way. I don''t want you to go out of line because of this." Li Han smiled, "I don''t care." He didn''t care about anything as long as it was for her. Seeing that he insisted on doing this, Shu Tian increased the strength of her hands and her tone became serious, "But I care." Before he could say anything, she added, "You''re awyer, your hands, and your mind are used to help save others, not to do such things. I don''t want to tarnish your reputation because of Jiang Mengyao." To her, doing such a thing was already an insult to Li Han. Li Han didn''t expect her to say that. He thought she called him to stop because she was afraid and the scene in front of her might have stimted her, but he didn''t expect her to be thinking about him. Her words fell into his ears and made him feel a little rmed. He had been awyer for so many years, from obscurity to sess today. He had ever seen all kinds of people. There were people who wanted him to help them take advantage of loopholes in thew and those who used him as a winning weapon. No one told him that his hands were used to help and save others. He was awyer, a famouswyer all over the country. Both businessmen and officials respected him because they were afraid that they would be "caught". There were very few who really respected him and this profession from the bottom of their hearts. Now that she told him so, how could he not be moved? Seeing that he had been silent, Shu Tian shook his arm, "Don''t do this, okay?" Li Han came back to his senses and saw the rity in her eyes. Finally, hepromised, "Okay." He turned to look at the screen, "Let her go and hand over the surveince and evidence to the police. Don''t forget to arrange it in advance." Even if he let Jiang Mengyao go now, he did not intend to stop so easily. Apart from this, he had countless ways to make her life worse than death. When he turned off the surveince camera, Shu Tian breathed a sigh of relief and realized that there was actually a lot of cold sweat on her back. Li Han reached out and pulled her into his arms, letting her sit on hisps. His tone was unusually calm, "What are you afraid of?" Shu Tian nudged him with her elbow. "You know what I''m afraid of. Don''t do such a things again in the future. I know you''re doing it for my own good, but I don''t need you to do this." Her words were so straightforward that Li Han could see her rejection and resentment directly. Li Han knew how upright she was, and that was why he loved her so much. He nodded obediently, "Okay, I''ll listen to you in the future." The two of them cuddled in the study for a while. When the atmosphere was less tense and the woman in his arms rxed a little, Li Han said again, "I have a social dinner after work tomorrow night. You Shu Tian knew that he was usually busy with work. Although she was a little disappointed, she didn''t say anything. Shu Tian just reminded him with concern, "Remember not to drink too much and not to smoke. The doctor said you should wait until this month was over." "I''ll try." The ambiguous answer made Shu Tian straighten up, "No, it''s not negotiable about your health. You have to take good care of your body..." "I see." The man smiled and grabbed her hand into his palm, "I know it." Shu Tian snorted nonchntly, "If you really knew it, you wouldn''t be sick." Listening to her soft nagging, Li Han''s heart softened. He leaned over and kissed her small mouth, which was still chattering. The next second, a pair of small hands pressed against his chest. He ignored it and deepened his movement, another sweet and intense kiss fell on her lips. His thin lips continued to kiss along her beautiful neck. At first, Shu Tian still had the strength to refuse. After a kiss, she couldn''t exert any strength. The little hands that were pushing him also grabbed the cloth on his chest. Li Han was a very lustful man, but he could always control himself. Only in the face of Shu Tian would he lose control like this. Shu Tian could feel it, so she would satisfy his desire most of the time. In a daze, she no longer knew where he had thrown her clothes. The man''s long and powerful arms went through her legs and lifted her up against the table. The cold wood irritated her skin, but the man in front of her was so impassioned and fierce. The ice and fire tortured her senses. Shu Tian could not resist his fierce attack, and finally turned into a pool of water under him. The study was different from a bedroom, and there were no condoms. She held on to thest shred of reason to remind him, "You, you should wear..." A thinyer of sweat oozed from the man''s plump forehead, and it could be seen that he had endured very hard, "There is no condom here." Shu Tian was caught off guard and let out a low cry. Then she bit her lip and said with some difficulty, "No, I''m not in safe period now..." "It''s okay." He didn''t care and tortured her by pumping deep and pulling out repeatedly, "It''s no big deal, you can give me a baby. I''ll raise it." Chapter 136 Chapter 136 Shu Tian was so surprised that she sweated profusely when hearing his words. A trace of reason came back to her mind. She looked at the man in front of her with widened eyes in confusion, "What are you talking about..." Immersed in the pleasure of sex, Li Han panted, "If it''s our child, I can ept it." He was a very rigorous person and rarely said such impulsive words. Shu Tian did not know if he was on a whim or something else, but she had to admit these words had touched her heart. The thought of their child could cause a thrill in her hearts. However, they were not married yet. It was needless to mention anything rted to their child. Shu Tian bit her lips and then said. "Stop saying nonsense." Li Han saw the mixed emotions in her eyes. Their bodies were still entangled, so warm and passionate against each other. He didn''t say anything and held her tightly in his arms. At this moment, he did not want to care about reality or be subject to external influences. He just wanted to act on his willfulness and impulse. [...] After they finished making love, Shu Tian wrapped herself in clothes and went to the bathroom to clean up. After the thrill faded, she didn''t want to make any risky decisions. If she was not fully confident in her decision, she would not choose to give birth to a baby. Even if the probability of risk was very low, she would still be responsible. She finally finished cleaning up and put on her clothes again. When she walked out, she was blocked by a tall figure at the door. Li Han, in a dark blue silk nightgown, was holding a cigarette in his hand. The way he smoked was sexy and charming. Shu Tian paused and found a white smoke rise between them. Her eyes narrowed slightly. It was said N?velDrama.Org holds this content. that men liked smoking a cigarette after making love. Now it seemed that it was true. But when she thought about his fierce movements just now, Shu Tian kept a straight face. She tilted her body to avoid him, but a slight stretch of his long leg left her no way out. Shu Tian looked up at him angrily. "Get out of the way. I''m going to sleep." Li Han slowly let out a breath out of his thin lips and sprayed it on her face, which somewhat intended to arouse her. "I''m not sleeping. Who are you going to sleep with?" "..." Shu Tian raised her hand to wave the smoke away and rolled her eyes angrily. In terms of teasing she was definitely no match for Li Han. She could only stare at him and urge him, "Get out of the way!" Then Shu Tian went to lie on the bed. After running around and the intense exercise just now, she was already a little sleepy. Li Han went to the bathroom to take a shower. The sound of water came through the frosted ss door, which Shu Tian found not chaotic but rather reassuring. As time passed, she felt pleasantly drowsy. Looking at the soft light above her head, she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep. When Li Han came out, Shu Tian was already asleep on the bed. Because of tiredness, her breathing was a little heavy, and her pink lips were unconsciously open. Looking at her, Li Han felt the urge again and lowered his head to kiss her lips. The temperature in the bedroom was not low. Her arm was stretched out across the quilt, and the clothes at the cor slipped a little, revealing a small piece of fair skin. There were a few dark red marks on it, which was left by him. Li Han looked at her with his eyes burning and raised his hand to cover her with quilt. After his hair was slightly dried, Li Han lifted a corner of the quilt and prepared to sleep. However, at this moment, the phone at the bedside suddenly vibrated and made a buzzing sound. He was afraid of waking up Shu Tian, so he quickly picked it up. The caller ID was Li Wei, who was in charge of arranging Jiang Chujing''s return from abroad. Why did he call at this time... Li Han frowned and answered the phone on the balcony. "What''s the matter?" "Mr. Li, the living quarters in the north of the city are almost tidied up, but I just find that there are some problems with the orientation of the windows here. I''m going to change them tomorrow morning. What about youring over and taking a look?" Li Han looked through the sliding window at the clock on the bedroom wall and then gazed at the figure of Shu Tian on the bed. After a moment of hesitation, he agreed, "I''lle now," as he thought that Jiang Chujing would return the day after tomorrow. After hanging up the phone, Li Han gently opened and closed the sliding door. He went straight into the cloakroom and changed his pajamas into afortable sportswear. From the cloakroom to the bedroom door, Li Han was bound to pass by the bed. He paused briefly, his eyes wandering back and forth over Shu Tian. He was in a struggle as to whether he should wake her up and tell her, but he chose not to do so in the end. The door was closed, blocking the warmth inside the room. He quickly went downstairs, took the car keys, and went straight into the underground garage. As he started and drove away the car, he didn''t even dare to look back, afraid to see Shu Tian''s response after waking up. It was dark at night. On the winding mountain road, Li Han stepped on the elerator as hard as possible. He hoped that the car would drive faster and that Shu Tian would not wake up from her sleep. Chapter 137 Chapter 137 It took an hour and a half to get from Imperial Vi to North Vis, even though the speed had reached its limit. The North Vis was located in a high-end rich area, which consisted of only nine vis halfway up the mountain. Each one was divided into three parts, which were a single-story building, a two-story duplex, and a three-story main building vi. Each family had arge front and back yard, including a private swimming pool, which was extremely luxurious. An important reason why Li Han liked this vi back then was because of Jiang Chujing''s situation. Not only was it luxurious, but more importantly, it was also the best ce with high air quality and greening conditions in the whole J City. Many big shots woulde here to recuperate. There were so many peoplepeting for the right of buying a house here. When the car arrived at the door, the door opened automatically. As soon as it parked, a man immediately stepped forward and respectfully opened the door. "Mr. Li." The man''s name was Li Wei. He was 32 years old and of medium build. He was about 1.75 meters tall with dark skin and he had a short, t head. His eyes were not big and his lips were thin, a trace of shrewd and fierce feeling exuded from him. Li Wei had won many judo championships back then, but he was deceived by hispany and signed an unequal treaty. Not only did he lose the prize money, but he was toiled by others for nothing. Li Han''s business was rising at that time, but he personally fought this case for Li Wei and won. From then on, Li Wei was loyal to work for him. Li Han nodded slightly as a greeting. After getting out of the car, he went straight into the vi door. He looked around and checked the windows'' direction. They were all in the direction of the sunrise, and it was not a good thing for Jiang Chujing who had a sensitive person. "Have you decided the new n?" Li Wei immediately handed over the drawing in his hand. "It''s settled. Please have a look." Li Han took it, scanned it carefully, and pointed out a few of them. "The bedroom, the study, and the cubicles on the third floor don''t need windows. Fill them all up." "Yes, sir." Li Wei immediately fed back the information to the designer in charge of the modification. Li Han walked around the house a few more times. He went upstairs, downstairs, and even in the courtyard to find all the unproper ces. He informed the designer and asked him to finish them all tomorrow. An hour passed after everything was settled, Li Wei looked at the man in front of him and sighed sincerely, "Miss Jiang''s condition has finally stabilized. Congrattions, Mr. Li." Li Han just curled up his lips slightly but did not smile at all. He raised his hand and patted Li Wei on the shoulder. "Thank you." Li Wei had been with Li Han for so many years, and he could sense the changes in his mood. At this Property ? N?velDrama.Org. moment, he looked at his boss''s obviously unhappy expression and was puzzled. For so many years, Mr. Li''s most important wish was that Miss Jiang coulde back and settle down after getting well. Why was he so sad now? ... It was already two o''clock in the morning when Li Han drove back to Imperial Vi. He parked the car and wanted to smoke, but when he remembered that he had been told to stop smoking in the bathroom by her, his outstretched hand shrank back. Since she was unwilling to see him smoke, he would stop. He got out of the car and walked into the vi. The living room was quiet. After changing his shoes, he went straight to the bedroom on the second floor. The wallmp in the corridor was still on. He pushed open the door and found the woman on the bed was in her pajamas, sleeping soundly and deeply. The man secretly breathed a sigh of relief and walked around the bed into the cloakroom and took off his clothes. He was busy running between the two vis so he was sweating a little. He took his pajamas to the guest room to take a shower, afraid to wake her up. Ten minutester, the man changed into his pajamas and walked out. With his hair still wet, he turned around into the bedroom, but unexpectedly, he met a pair of big dark eyes. He had just entered the room and froze. Looking at the woman who was half sitting at the head of the bed with sleepy eyes, Li Han felt a little guilty in his heart. It was as if the man who left home behind his wife had been caught. Shu tian was in a daze. She dreamed about the thing that happened with Meng Shichuan in the middle of the night and woke up in shock. Her first reaction was to reach out and touch the man beside her, but she didn''t find anything. She was about to get out of bed to look for him when he pushed the door open. As she breathed a sigh of relief, she noticed that the man''s hair which was still dripping. "Where have you been?" The woman''s instincts were amazing. Li Han''s whole body tensed up at the question. He turned around and closed the door, using this action to hide the panic in his eyes. "I went to the guest room to take a shower." "Take a shower?" Shu Tian blinked and thought for a while. "Didn''t you take a shower just now?" "Well, it was too hot and I''m sweaty at home, so I took a shower again." The man walked over quickly and stood at the bedside looking at the little woman in white pajamas. "Why are you awake?" Shu Tian raised her hand and rubbed her eyes. "I had a nightmare." Seeing that she didn''t show any strange expression, Li Han sat by the bed and reached out to hold her in his arms. "It''s okay. I''m right beside you." Shu Tian hugged him back, feeling he was not a man who had been sleeping and there was no sleepiness in his eyes. However, she did not express her doubts. Ever since thest misunderstanding, her trust in Li Han had deepened. Now that she chose to believe him that mutual trust was the most important thing. Li Han was afraid that she would question him because he was not confident that he could cover up any doubts. He was not a good liar, not to mention that the woman in front of him was his beloved woman. However, when Shu Tian asked nothing, he was not as rxed as he thought. Instead, he felt even guiltier and more remorseful. In the face of her trust, he looked so despicable... The water droplets on the man''s hair fell on the back of Shu Tian''s hand. She pushed him away slightly and raised her hand to touch him. "Dry your hair first, or you will have a headache when you get up the next day." Li Han did not move. His eyes were fixated on her figure and his burning eyes made Shu Tian feel a little embarrassed. She couldn''t help but ask him, "What''s wrong?" "Tian, will you always be by my side?" He suddenly asked and affectionately called her nickname. Shu Tian did not understand his sudden change in attitude and was a little worried. "Did something happen?" "No." His movements did not change and he stubbornly asked for an answer. "Answer me." "I will." Shu Tian said without any hesitation, but she felt a little uneasy in her heart. She raised her hand and stroked his handsome side face. "Why did you suddenly ask me about this?" The man looked down but did not speak. After thinking for a moment, he pulled Shu Tian back into his arms with a little force. He was afraid of scaring so he did not dare to exert force, but his body tensed up. There was a moment of silence in the bedroom. After a long time, he let go of Shu Tian and turned to the bathroom to dry his hair. She heard the buzzing of the hair drier and looked vaguely at the man through the ss, but Shu Tian was less sleepy. Today, Li Han was very abnormal. Although she told herself not to think too much, she was still thinking wildly uncontrobly. What happened to him? Chapter 138 Chapter 138 The next morning, Shu Tian and Li Han went to thepany together. The thing that happenedst night didn''t affect their rtionship. Instead, Shu Tian felt uneasy back to work. She didn''t say anything along the way. Li Han saw what was on her mind and said in a low and Of course, Shu Tian knew that he would handle it, but even this could not dispel her fear. After all, her rtionship with Li Han was well known throughout thepany or even almost everyone in the country. No one dared to trouble her openly, and that was why she should be more self-disciplined. Now that she had been absent for so long without asking for leave, what should Wei Xiangming think of her? Shu Tian was nervous all the way. After getting off the car, without saying many words, she took the elevator directly after As soon as she entered, all of her colleagues looked at her. Shu Tian looked back and smiled a little stiffly. "Good morning, everyone." Zhang Rui'' er blinked and thought she was mistaken. She waved at her and helped her out, "You''re finally here. We''ve been so busytely. Come here." Shu Tian walked over and felt really at ease the moment she sat down. Zhang Rui'' er poked her head over. "You''re finally here. I can''t get through to you, neither could I find you in other ways. I thought you resigned." "No." Shu Tian felt guilty and smoothed her hair, which was not messy at all. "I''ve been feeling a little unwell recently, so I asked for leave." "Tsk." Zhang Rui'' er was unsatisfied. "You can lie to others, but that doesn''t work on me. You''re not the kind of person who would ask for leave once feeling unwell. I guess it has something to do with Mr. Li, right?" She was right. and Shu Tian felt more ufortable. Zhang Rui'' er did not make things more difficult for her. She gave her the document and said. "Take a look at the minutes of the recent meetings." "Thank you, Rui." Shu Tian was very moved. It was too difficult to have such a close friend at work. Zhang Rui'' er waved her hand. "You''re wee." She hadn''t been here for a long time. She had a lot of work on hand and needed time to figure them out. It took Shu Tian a whole morning to catch up. When she looked up and it was past lunchtime, she suddenly understood why Li Han always worked sote. Even amon employee like her have some much work to do, not to mention the boss of the Shu Tian raised her hand and rubbed his sore neck. She felt her neck a little stiff due to her gesture. The phone vibrated twice. When she picked it up, she saw a message from Li Han: have you eaten yet? Four words, clean and simple. Shu Tian curled her lips slightly and her fingertips typed as if it danced happily on the screen, cheerfully just like her heart at this moment: not yet. I had been busy with work just now. Finished typing, she clicked the "send" button. While it had not been sent yet. While, Wei Xiangming returned to the office early after lunch and called her name. "Shu Tian,e here." She immediately put down her phone and follow her into the office. After the door closed, Wei Xiangming walked to the sofa in the middle and sat down. She pointed to the seat opposite her, said, "Sit down." "I will stand, Ms. Wei." Shu Tian quickly waved her hand. Wei Xiangming smiled. "It''s okay. Sit down and have a casual chat with me. It was not an official meeting." Only then did Shu Tian sit reverently opposite her. "I heard from Mr. Ji that you haven''t been in good health recently. Are you okay now?" Wei Xiangming poured two cups of tea and handed her one, both in a normal tone and posture. Shu Tian felt too guilty to lift up her head and rx. "Well..." She was a person who didn''t know how to lie. Seeing her behaviour at this time, Wei Xiangming already knew it, but she didn''t point it out. She was just a little disappointed, and her tone became a little cold, "Since you have just recovered, I won''t give you too much work recently. You should take care of your affairs first. When you are in better condition, I will arrange other work for you. Is that okay?" Shu Tian half lowered her head and looked at the small and exquisite porcin teacup without saying a word. Wei Xiangming tried to get her answer, "Shu Tian?" "Ms. Wei" She looked up and let out a long breath. "I''m sorry, but I want to be honest with you. The reason why I took a long leave was not only because I was not feeling well, but also because of some private affairs. I am sorry for the trouble." She apologized twice in a row, with guilt between the lines. It wasn''t the first time she had done this. She was really a little reckless and didn''t value the work too much. Wei Xiangming was silent for a moment. She didn''t expect her to confess. The lingering unhappiness dissipated a little, but she wasn''t happy. However, this was a good thing. "Since you are being honest with me, then I hope that this will not happen again. Although you are only one of the employees, you are an indispensable part of the team. Without you, your work needs to be shared by others. Since you need others to help you, you should note them in advance. I hope you will pay attention in the future that everyone''s work is worthy of respect." Wei Xiangming was notoriously strict. Even though Shu Tian and Li Han were very close, she didn''t turn softer. Shu Tian was upset by that, but she epted it humbly. "I''m sorry, I promise I won''t do it again." Seeing her attitude and Wei Xiangming nodded. "Okay, I believe you." As soon as she made her point clear, the atmosphere became less serious. Everything that needed to be corrected was corrected. Wei Xiangming would not make it difficult for her anymore but said jokingly, "But this is the first time I''ve personally received a private call from Mr. Ji. It''s also a credit to you." Shu Tian shook her head quickly. "Don''t say that. I don''t deserve it..." As they were talking, someone knocked on the door. The blinds were closed and they didn''t know who did the knocking. Wei Xiangming straightened her posture and said in a crisp voice, "Pleasee in." As soon as the door opened, both of them were surprised, especially Shu Tian, who was surprised to see her man walk briskly straight to her side. He was in a blue shirt of a very light colour, between blue and grey-white. The tie was the one she sent him, and he was very sharp and energetic. Shu Tian blinked and felt a little bewildered. "Why are you here?" The man raised his eyebrows slightly, grabbed her arm, and turned to look at Wei Xiangming. "Ms. Wei, it''s 12: 40. There are still 50 minutes. I''ll take my girlfriend for lunch. Is that okay?" Chapter 139 Chapter 139 Wei Xiangming and Shu Tian were in a nk by his sudden words. After a few seconds, Wei Xiangming came back to her senses. "It''s not time for work yet. Mr. Li, please feel free." "Okay." Then Li Han took Shu Tian out of the office. As soon as he reached the door, he suddenly thought of something and turned back. "By the way, although I''m not the one who doesn''t distinguish between public and private interests, I hope Ms. Wei can give more attention to my girlfriend." He expressed his attitude directly without any dissatisfaction with Wei Xiangming but just telling the truth. Although his words showed arge partiality, they would not make people feel disgusted. It was better to say it openly than to say it secretly. Besides, there was a bit of a joke in what he said. Wei Xiangming didn''t take it seriously either. "Mr. Li, don''t worry. I won''t make things difficult at work. I also don''t dare to do it." Shu Tian watched the conversation between the two of them shockingly. Who could tell her why Li Han was here and why he told his leader these? Li Han led her out of the office. It was not until they entered the president''s office together that Shu Tian came back to her senses. She stood at the door and looked at the man on the sofa stammering, "You, you just..." "Hmm?" He picked up his ss and took a sip, looking as usual. Shu Tian was not calm anymore. "What did you say to my leader just now?" "Didn''t you hear that?" "I heard it!" Shu Tian walked up to him out of sorts. "I mean, how can you say that? What if she misunderstands?" "What''s the misunderstanding? You are exactly my girlfriend." Li Han looked as if no one could do anything to him and stared at Shu Tian, making her speechless. This man did not give her a chance to be in a daze, picked up the internal phone on the table, and called the secretary. "Order the canteen to send two meals over. Take some of a sweet and sour taste." After that, he hung up the phone, loosed his tie a little, and sat on the sofa casually, patting hisp. "Why are you standing there? Come here." Shu Tian was helpless and called out his name with a hint of coquettishness. "Li Han..." "I''m here." "What the hell are you doing?" She was really afraid that Wei Xiangming would misunderstand her. Liu Wei was prejudiced against her before. And she didn''t want to leave a bad impression on her now fair and justice leader. Seeing that she was really anxious, Li Han sighed silently, got up, and walked over to pull her into his arms. "I said it, not you. Why are you nervous?" Shu Tian looked up at him without saying anything. The man rubbed her head. "Okay, it''s nothing. What are you afraid of with me around? There is not enough time. You have lunch in the canteen first, and I''ll take you to eat something else tonight." It was useless to think about what had been said.Property ? N?velDrama.Org. Shu Tian nodded. "I see... By the way, why did you suddenly go upstairs to find me?" Speaking of this, the man raised the phone in his hand. "I can''t find you after sending the message. And you didn''t answer my phone call either. So I muste to grab you by myself." Only then did Shu Tian remember that Wei Xiangming had called her so suddenly that she forgot to look at her phone on the table. But when she thought of himing here to look for her personally, she felt warm. "Just because I didn''t eat?" "Yes." As he spoke, the food was already delivered to them quickly. He did not ask his secretary to bring it in but went to the door to carry it and put it on the table. "I was always too busy to have a eat before, so my stomach is not very well now. Don''t take it as a small matter." Hearing he reminded her in a low voice, Shu Tian''s heart softened, "Have you eaten?" "No." He chuckled and gave her a teasing look. "How dare I eat it myself if you don''t eat it?" Suddenly being teased again, Shu Tian was a little shocked. Was this the same Li Han who had been so serious and stingy in praising her before? What he said seemed to show that she was in a much higher position, and it had to be said that she was in a good mood after hearing it. The two of them sat side by side on the sofa. The canteen took four dishes, pineapple and sweet pork, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, spiced sweet duck, and a stir-fried yam. Knowing that she liked sweet and sour vors, most of the dishes were sweet and sour. Shu Tian picked up food for him as she ate. This man did not like to talk when he ate and had good table manners. Even if it was just a casual meal, there was a sense of elegance between his manners. Fortunately, the atmosphere was still warm and sweet, and it was almost time to go to work after dinner. Shu Tian was so full that she didn''t want to stand up straight on the sofa. So Li Han had to clean up the leftovers himself. After finishing it, Li Han walked to the sofa and hugged her on hisp. His broad body almost covered her entirely, which made Shu Tian''s body almost invisible from behind. "Have you had enough?" "I was stuffed more than full." Shu Tian said and touched her stomach. "My stomach is up. Oh, no. I''m going to be fat." "It would have a better feel to touch." Shu Tian recognized the underlying meaning of his words and blushed slightly. Ignoring his words, she said to herself, "I don''t want to gain weight. My waist will be thick." "Really?" The man put his hand under her clothes naturally without blushing. Shu Tian let out a low cry and wanted to get up from him, waving and twisting her body disobediently. "Let go of me..." Li Han originally just wanted to tease her. But now, her wriggling really provoked him some desire... After a while, the heat in his body gradually faded. Shu Tian jumped out of his arms and went far away from him, saying, "I''m gonna leave." "Well." The man got up. Thinking of something, he told her in a deep voice, "You don''t have to wait for me after work tonight. There''s a social engagement for me. You''ll go back first." Shu Tian paused with her delicate brows subconsciously furrowed. "Is there a social engagement again?" Li Han turned around and walked towards the desk. A trace of confusion shed through his eyes, but he quickly regained hisposure. After hesitating for a few seconds, he still didn''t say it out. "Well, I''ve been busytely. I may not have much time to spend with you." Shu Tian''s hands, which hung by her side, clenched tightly and secretly. She pressed down on the inexplicable feelings. "It''s okay. You go to work first. I''ll wait for you at home." Chapter 140 Chapter 140 In A Country, Jiang Chujing had been active in treatment since she found out that she was stable. The final result required a physical examination, which was the most painful thing for her. It was torture to suffer all kinds of equipment in and out of her body, but she was painful and excited at the same time. The result did not disappoint her. Her physical indicators were good, so she didn''t need to stay in this small treatment room every day. She could control it by providing that she took medicine on time. George handed the result to her. Looking at the woman who was crying with joy, he patted her on the shoulderfortingly. "Congrattions, Chujing." He only called her Chinese names several times. Although his pronunciation sounded weird, it still made her feel sad. Over the years, it had been a long time since she heard people call her by Chinese name except for Li Han. "Thank you, George. I have been anticipating the day." Finally, she could return home and stay with Li Han, fighting for what belonged to her. Jiang Chujing couldn''t wait for anymore. After getting the result, he asked Li Han''s men to book the When she arrived, it was early in the morning. She was wearing a long ck coat with a red sweater. It seemed that she was celebrating her return to thisnd after so many years. Wearing a ck woolen hat that covered half of her face, revealing her beautiful lips and chin, she stood outside the bleak airport in winter, eye-catching. This time, Jiang Chujing only took a suitcase, in which there were no clothes or jewelry, but birthday gifts Li Han gave her over the years, as well as the things left by her parents before they died. For her, the five years in A Country were hard. Everything rted to it displeased her, so she brought back nothing. As long as she came back, she had no intention of going back. When they walked out of the airport, the assistant led her to walk to a high-end ck minivan on the street. "Miss Jiang, this way, please." Jiang Chujing took a deep breath and walked to the car. Li Wei got out of the car and opened the door for her. The car was clean and there was not even a wrinkle on the seat. The man she missed day and night didn''t appear. Standing there motionless, with her eyes down, she felt an indescribable loss. He didn''te after all. Li Wei, only wearing a thin suit, felt the cold outside and he patiently covered the car frame with his hand. "Miss Jiang, it''s cold. Please get in the car first." Mr. Li said that Miss Jiang had not fully recovered. So he couldn''t have her catching a cold or anything go wrong. Only then did Jiang Chujing get in the car and sit in the back seat. The door was closed. She looked out of the window at the people with ck hair not blonde on the street. Five years, she hadn''te back for five years. Jiang Chujing closed her eyes tightly, hiding the warmth in her eyes. What could people do in five years? It was enough to turn Li Han from a penniless person to a sessful man and to turn her from a medical doctor to a haggard patient. Five years, 2628000 minutes, long and short, a sixteenth of her life. When she left, she was twenty-five years old, and she was thirty years old when she came back, which was the prime of her life. Jiang Chujing didn''t me anyone but her illness. It was useless for her toin the God for being unfair countless times. She was the one chosen by fate to suffer so she had to face it. However, Li Han was the reason for all her insistence and everything she had. The car drove all the way to the vi in the north of the city. Along the way, it was silent in the car. Afraid of an ident, Li Wei did not raise the soundproof board and kept an eye on the woman in the back seat. He read the sadness in her eyes after some looks. She was like him who had nothing. So he was moved, made an exception, and exined, "Mr. Li is waiting for you at the vi. There are a lot of things to arrange. He doesn''t trust others so he did it himself, so he didn''te." He thought that Jiang Chujing was so depressed because she minded that Li Han didn''te to pick her up. But what he didn''t know was that there was more than one reason for her sadness in Jiang Chujing''s heart. But hearing what he said, she felt more or lessfortable. She turned up a smile. "I hurried toe back, he must be worried about me." When Li Wei saw her smile, he paused as if he had been taken back, he quickly moved his eyes away and tightened his hands, which held the steering wheel, unconsciously. "Mr. Li cares about you very much." Jiang Chujing nodded. "Yes, we grew up together and we''re good." It took nearly an hour and a half to get to the vi. After the car stopped, Jiang Chujing couldn''t wait for Li Wei to open the door and she walked out. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! Yesterday, it snowed in J City, and there was ayer of snow on the ground that had not melted. It was chilling, but Jiang Chujing seemed not to feel it but looked at the tall man who was standing at the door. He was talking to his assistant, with his hands in the pockets of his coat. The night wind messed up his hair, but his eyes were sharper than the wind. Suddenly, he looked over. Obviously, he was stunned when he saw her, but soon he walked over. The man''s legs were long, and his steps were big and steady. In a few steps, he stood in front of her. Li Han looked down at the delicate woman. The bright red color came into his eyes. She had neat short hair and a delicate felt hat on her head. Her palm-sized face was thin and he could see the protruding cheekbones. The pink lipstick on her pale lips made her look much better. Looking at her and the scenery behind her, for a moment, Li Han couldn''t calm down. Five years, she appeared again, and a sense of discord arose in his heart. "Han, I''m back." Jiang Chujing''s eyes immediately turned red when she finished, smiling. This sentence had appeared in her dreams countless times. She finally had the chance to say to him face to face. No one knew how long she had been waiting. Li Han raised his hand and pinned her hair, which had been messed up by the wind, behind her ear. He touched her cold skin, and he felt depressed. "It''s good to see youe back." With that, he wanted to put his hand down, he was suddenly caught by her. As soon as he looked up, he looked into the woman''s affectionate eyes. "Ie to apany you and will never leave. We''ll be together every day just like before, okay?" The five fingers in the woman''s palm were so stilted, for cold wind or something else, that he could not move them, and the deep dark eyes were blurred in the darkness. Jiang Chujing knew Li Han well enough. In his silent silence, her burning heart gradually cooled down. She didn''t think she could smile anymore. "Han?" Chapter 141 Chapter 141 "Come in first," Li Han came back to his senses. He managed to erase Shu Tian from his mind temporarily, trying to make himself look like usual. The two of them walked into the vi, and Li Wei and the others were waiting outside. Inside the vi, in the silence they could only hear the clock ticking. Li Han said after a moment, "Is there any job you''re interested in? Tell me and I''ll arrange it. As long as you''re in good condition, you can stay here." He didn''t promise anything, cleverly fudging the issue. Jiang Chujing understood his deep meaning, but she didn''t dare toin directly. She had already expressed her feelings when they were in the A Country before, but he didn''t give her a clear answer, perfunctorily fudging the issue. So now, Jiang Chujing didn''t dare to ask him blindly again. Li Han dreaded to be suppressed by her parents, but if he heartlessly insisted on breaking off all rtions with her, she couldn''t change it. Property ? N?velDrama.Org. So she''d better invade his life bit by bit like now. As for Shu Tian... Jiang Chujing''s eyes turned cold at the thought of that woman. No one could ept another woman to be around their man. Thinking of this, Jiang Chujing swallowed everything she wanted to say,ing up with a good idea. Her legs went limp and she staggered. Li Han immediately reached out to help her and frowned, afraid that she might have an ident, "Are you okay?" Jiang Chujing leaned most of her body against him and said in a weak voice, "I''m fine... I feel a little dizzy maybe because of the long flight." "Dizzy?" Li Han held her with one hand and intended to take the phone from his pocket with the other. "I''ll call George to help you." "No need!" Jiang Chujing grabbed his hand, but she didn''t exert much strength. Her hand was draped casually on his. "I need some time to familiarise myself with the environment around..." She nced up at Li Han, her dark eyes filled with tears of sadness. "Han, stay here with me today, okay?" Li Han checked the time. It was about two o''clock, and Shu Tian who was at home was probably asleep. She had just called and asked when he would go back in a daze. He said he would be home soon, but now... Li Han looked down at Jiang Chujing in his arms and unconsciously withdrew his arms a little. "I''ll call Ling Junze over. We can take better care of you together tonight." "No." Jiang Chujing refused again. She looked as if she was put in an embarrassing position. "Han, today is my first day back home. I just want you to apany me. Stay with me even if you don''t say or do anything. I don''t want to be alone." Li Han clenched his fist that was holding his phone. He did this when he felt difficult making a decision. He knew that he should go home because he had promised Shu Tian, but Jiang Chujing was not Jiang Chujing reached out and tugged at the corner of the man''s clothes, begging him, "I know you''re busy, but could you stay with me just for one day?" Li Han''s heart was softened and he finally nodded in agreement. Being satisfied, Jiang Chujing''s joy was so obvious. It had been a long time since her pale face had such a lively expression, and Li Han felt sorry for her. "I''ll stay with you. You must be tired after the long trip. Wash up and go to bed early." Jiang Chujing nodded and bent over to change her shoes. There were already slippers the size of her feet in the shoe cab. Seeing it, she was very moved. "Han, thank you for doing this for me." Li Han moved up the corners of his mouth. "It''s my pleasure. Go upstairs and wash up." "Okay, wait for me." Jiang Chujing turned around and went upstairs. Although she wasn''t walking very fast, she was walking steadily. Seeing the woman disappear from view, Li Han turned around, walked towards the French window in the living room, took out his phone, and editing a message several times before he finally tapped the send button. Then he put the phone on the windowsill as if he was holding a hot potato. He held his breath, waiting for a reply, but he received no call. His tension finally eased. Fortunately, Shu Tian fell asleep. If she called, he didn''t know how to exin. It was the first time that he had not gone home because of social engagements, not to mention that he was lying. Looking out of the window at the dark night, the breeze that was blowing across the branches sent a chill to him though he was in the warm room. Li Han closed his eyes and did not dare to think more. [...] The next morning, Shu Tian woke up exceptionally early, not knowing whether it was because she had something on her mind or because she didn''t sleep soundly. She stretched and subconsciously reached out to the side. She originally wanted to carry the man next to her in her arms and to act cute, but unexpectedly, she only felt the smooth sheet. Shu Tian was confused, and then she reached out for Li Han again, only to find he was not here. Her little face, which was covered by the quilt, wrinkled. She sat up and found that there was no sign of anyone sleeping beside herst night. Li Han had note back all night. Shu Tian leaned over and took the phone from the nightstand. She then saw an unread text message. She tapped in open, only saw a few words, "I''m drunk at dinner. You sleep first." Reading, Shu Tian bit her lip. He was drunk? When did he be so hard-working and drink for business personally? Her intuition told her that there must be something strange going on. She didn''t hesitate to make a call. Fortunately, Li Han answered it soon. The man said in a deep voice, "You are awake." Only one sentence made Shu Tian''s tempers cool. She acted cute instead of judging him, asking, "You didn''te backst night?" Li Han paused for two seconds before he answered, "Yes, we mixed alcohol together and it had a strong dyed effect. I didn''t want to wake you up so I slept in the hotel." However, his voice was as clear as usual. Shu Tian tried to flush those wayward thoughts out of her and to act gracefully. However, she couldn''t help but ask him, "Who did you drink withst night?" "The leader of the politicalmissar." Li Han was waiting at a traffic light. He stepped on the brakes, exining the reason he had rehearsed countless times in his mind. Shu Tian knew that those people were picky and knew that the business couldn''t always be done as his wish. But she could not help but feel aggrieved because she knew that no one would make things difficult for Li Han. As long as he wanted toe back, he could definitely do it. For a moment, neither of them spoke. Only the sound of breathing echoed. Shu Tian heard the sound of a car horn on his side and did not dare to say more. "Focus on your drive." Li Han knew she was going to hang up and called her softly, "Shu Tian." Shu Tian paused, "Anything else?" "Good girl, don''t think too much. I''ll ask the driver to pick you upter. We''ll talk when we get to the "Punish me as you wish." Chapter 142 Chapter 142 The gloom which filled all Shu Ting''s thoughts dissipated because of his words. "Don''t go back on what you said." Hearing the pleasant tone of voice, the man remembered her acting spoiled. The coldness on his face instantly disappeared, and his tone was indulgent. "Never. You can have a check then." Shu Tian put her feet up and muttered, with her face flushed, "You bastard..." Fromst night until now, Li Han rarely smiled happily. "Get up. I''ll wait for you at thepany, okay?" Hearing his voice, Shu Tian''s anger was totally gone. Her voice was as soft as if it had been made up of sugar. "Okay." After some words, Li Han hung up the phone and called Ling Junze. The softness in his words disappeared, instead, he ordered coldly, "Ask two of George''s nurses to North Vis. Chujing said she was dizzyst night. I was worried about her." Ling Junze had just arrived at the office, without putting off his briefcase. "Dizzy? Is there any other wrong? This has never happened before." "Not yet." Li Han was concerned as well. "Could it be the long-time flight?" "Maybe" Ling Junze answered, sitting in his chair. Seeing the cup of hot tea on the table made by Tian Sangsang, he took a sip. His mouth was quickly pervaded by the faint scent of jasmine. "I''ll send someone over there this afternoon. Don''t worry. It doesn''t matter if she only feels dizzy. Chujing''s been sick for a long time. Don''t scare yourself." "Well, thank you." "Hey," Ling Junze sighed. "Never mind." The two of them talked for a while longer. After talking about serious things, they always talked about personal matters. Ling Junze slowly asked, in a tentative voice,"Chujing is back. Shu Tian didn''t notice, did she?" "I stayed in North Vis all night. She was somewhat unhappy, but I''ve coaxed her into forgiving me." "Did she forgive you?" "Yes." "Hey, Shu Tian is nice, and she really believes in you. She can forgive you after your few words. To be honest, you feel guilty, right?" Ling Junze had been Li Han''s trusted friend for so many years and he knew Li Han well. Li Han was not only guilty, but he was also even a little disappointed in himself. "I won''t do anything that hurts her." He said in a low voice as if he were talking to Ling Junze as well as himself. It was his only excuse. Ling Junze was a little speechless, and he cursed incoherently, "Why is it so difficult to love someone?" In the past, Li Han hadn''t found the one he loved. Now, the one appeared, but Jiang Chujing was in the way. If it were Ling Junze who was impatient, he would have cut his hair and turn into a monk. Li Han smiled bitterly. "Don''t touch something like love. I''ve fallen in love with Shu Tian. It''s no use to regret." Ling Junze gasped, not knowing how tofort Li Han. [...] Meanwhile, the driver arrived at Imperial Vi on time to pick up Shu Tian and drove her to the "Hello, mom?" "Tian, where are you now?" Shu Tian looked out the window. "I''m on my way to work." "Well, Tang Guofeng suddenly called me this morning. I remembered that you''ve told your father and me to stay away from the Tang family, so I didn''t answer the phone. It was unexpected that they came over. It''s embarrassing to let them stand outside, so we let them in..." Shu Tian said surprisedly, with her heart in her mouth. "What? You let them in?!" Ye Lihua knew that Shu Tian was anxious, so she hurriedly exined, "They knocked on the door. I just cannot let them make a scene. It''s really awkward..." Shu Tian raised her voice. "Did they make a scene?" "No, no, no. Tang Guofeng said he wanted to make things clear. I told him that since you and Tang Zechen are divorced, it''s unnecessary to talk about anything more..." "Mom." Shu Tian interrupted Ye Lihua, unable to calm down and listen, afraid that Liu Lifang and Tang Guofeng would do something worse. She asked the driver to go back and said to her mom, "Calm them down and I''ll go back now." "Why are you back? Aren''t you going to work..." "They''ve alle to my home. How can I work?" Shu Tian couldn''t help yelling, really upset. "Well, mom, don''t worry about me. I can ask for a leave. Tell Liu Lifang to wait for me." "Well, well..." Seeing that Shu Tian insisted oning back, Ye Lihua was clear that Shu Ting wouldn''t change her opinion, so Ye Lihua gave up persuading her daughter. After hanging up, Shu Tian immediately asked Wei Xiangming for leave for about half a day. After exining the reason, Wei Xiangming permitted quickly. The driver nced at the rearview mirror, seeing that Shu Ting was not looking well, he kindly turned the heat on to its maximum. "Miss Shu, don''t worry. Red Garden Community isn''t far from here. We can get there in about fifteen minutes." Annoyed, Shu Tian sighed helplessly. "Thank you. Please hurry up." It was the morning rush hour, and the driver drove fast to the Red Garden Community, even driving on busnes. The car stopped in 13 or 14 minutes. Shu Tian got off with her bag and trotted all the way to themunity. She was wearing high heels today. From the first floor to the fourth floor, she rushed up two steps at a time. During the process, she identally sprained her ankle, gasped in pain, and let it go. Bang! Bang! Shu Tian pressed the doorbell and knocked on the door, saying anxiously, "Mom, open the door." Ye Lihua opened the door, with her hands wet. "What are you in a hurry for? We''re fine." Ye Lihua lowered her voice and replied. Shu Tian was relieved to see her mom fine and turned to look inside. In the living room, Liu Lifang and Tang Guofeng were sitting on the sofa, while Shu Changlei was sitting on the chair, all of them silent. Although they were like strangers now, Ye Lihua offered them a cup of tea. Looking at the hot steaming out of the teacup, Shu Tian was sad with her chest stuffy. Seeing the couple again, Shu Ting was still emotional, thinking of those tough and unbearable moments. Seeing her enter, Shu Changlei stood up to greet her, "You''re back." "Dad." Shu Tian greeted him and turned to look at the two people standing up from the sofa as well. Her tone was a little stiff. "Why do youe here?" Tang Guofeng was in a daze, while Liu Lifang said, with a feigned smile, "We want to talk to you." Shu Tian nodded, without replying. Instead, she said to her parents, "Mom and dad, we have something to talk about. Please stay in the bedroom for a while." "It..." Ye Lihua was worried to let her daughter face them alone. Before she said something more, Shu This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Tian interrupted her. "Mom, it is our house. Don''t worry. I''ll call you when we''re done." Ye Lihua wanted to say something else, but Shu Changlei reached out to stop Ye Lihua. "Okay, you can have a talk. I''ll go in with your mother." Then, the couple walked inside one after another, during which Ye Lihua frequently turned around in worry. After the bedroom door was closed, Shu Tian sat down on the opposite sofa. With her legs crossed, she looked intimidating and said confidently. "What do you want to talk about? Say it now." Chapter 143 Chapter 143 Tang Guofeng looked at Shu Tian, who was sitting in front of him. He hadn''t seen her for a while, but he didn''t dare to recognize her now. She didn''t dare to talk to them in such a manner and tone at all before. Liu Lifang was also surprised. She thought Shu Tian was alike Li Han after being with him for a long time. "Well, you and Zechen divorced before, and now the court has already ruled, and everything had been executed. I hope you can persuade Mr. Li for us." There was a strong sense of helplessness in Tang Guofeng''s voice, and his originally strong body had weakened a lot. That made sense. Tang Zechen was divorced and sued during this period of time. Tang Guofeng must have worried a lot for his son. But he actually let her persuade Li Han! Shu Tian frowned. "What do you mean, Mr. Tang?" She didn''t call her father. She couldn''t even call him "Uncle" after the divorce. She called him "Mr. Tang" directly, which draw a firm boundary. "You know what I mean." After that, Tang Guofeng realized that his tone was not good and added quickly, "Since you and Zechen are divorced, there is no need to let Mr. Li target BY Technology anymore. I have devoted my whole life to BY Technology. No matter how many grudges we have, I hope you can let us go." Shu Tian understood what he said, but she was also a little surprised. Could it be that Li Han had been attacking BY Technology and did not stop after the divorcewsuit? After thinking for a moment, she understood. Coincidentally, Li Han''s call came in at the same time. Shu Tian took the phone, nced at the caller ID, and walked to the side to pick it up. "Hello?" "Why didn''t youe to thepany?" The man''s clear voice came from the microphone. He probably just arrived and found that she was not there. Shu Tian turned her back to the two-person in the living room and said in a low voice, "Tang Guofeng and Liu Lifang are at my house. I took half a day off and will be back in the afternoon." "They''re looking for you?" Li Han''s voice suddenly became nervous. "I''ll go over now..." "No need." Shu Tian interrupted him softly. Knowing that he cared about her, she felt warm. "I can handle it myself." Moreover, in this situation, it would only be worse if he came. She knew Li Han had always been cold to outsiders, and if he meant to, he would ruin BY Technology directly. Li Han pondered for a long time without saying a word. Shu Tian was afraid that he would worry, so she anything to me." Even if they wanted, it was already toote, so she thought they wouldn''t hurt her. She was in such a hurry toe because she was afraid that Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua would be angry, and things would get serious. Now that she had arrived, there was nothing to be afraid of. Li Han noticed her calm tone andpromised. "Okay, deal with it yourself. If they make things difficult for you, just tell me." "Tell you?" Shu Tian teased him. "Then you will kill them, right?" "Right answer." Li Han sneered. "If they dare to touch one of your hair, I won''t let him out of the gate of Red Garden Community alive." Shu Tian could not help but tremble when she heard his cold tone. She turned to look at the living room, met Tang Guofeng''s eyes, then she quickly looked down and turned around. "I need to talk to them first. I''ll call youter." "Well, be careful." "Don''t worry." Not long, Shu Tian hung up the phone and walked back to the living room with her cell phone. Before she could sit down, Liu Lifang''s shrill voice came, "Is it Mr. Li?" This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. In the past, Shu Tian would never tell them, but now... She sat down, put her phone on the table, and nodded leisurely. "Yes, you''re right." Her direct answer made Liu Lifang surprised and feel a little sarcastic. Shu Tian was like to indicate, "So what?" They really couldn''t do anything. At least today, Shu Tian was no longer the timid Shu Tian who used to be in the Tang family. Tang Guofeng was obviously much more rational and had been focusing on the purpose of today''s trip. "What do you think of what I just said?" Shu Tian looked at Tang Guofeng, the man whom she had affectionately called "Dad." In fact, although Tang Guofeng had not treated her well in the Tang family, he could be regarded as a better one than Liu Lifang. But now that they were outsiders to her, Li Han was the one who was closer to her, so even though she already had the answer in her heart, she didn''t say it. "You asked me to tell Mr. Li to stop. First of all, I don''t know if Mr. Li is targeting BY Technology or not. Second, even if I knew, he might not listen to me. All I can do is tell him not to continue. As for whether he listens or not, I''m sorry, I can''t interfere." Li Han did all this for her, so she couldn''t betray him. Although the Tang family was an ant in his eyes, it was also disgusting to get involved with such a thing. No one would want to walk with dog poop on his shoes. What Li Han did was all for herself. When Tang Guofeng heard her say this, his face was livid. His forced smile gradually faded. "What else are you dissatisfied with? We have given you everything we should give you, and you should stop it!" "Stop it?" Shu Tian smiled, but her expression was cold. "I should tell you that, right?" Before they could speak, she continued, "The matter of Miss Jiang''s trick for Mr. Li when he was on a business in Q City might have something with you! Did you a part of the n?" Miss Jiang? Liu Lifang paused. "You mean Jiang Mengyao?" Shu Tian did not speak, and the look in her eyes had already indicated everything. "When we were in Q City, she pretended to meet Li Han, drugging him and tempting him. We misunderstood each other and she wanted to take advantage of this. Now that she''s with Tang Zechen, maybe all of you had participated in it." Jiang Mengyao never mentioned the Tang family about this. After all, she couldn''t make it to hook up with Li Han and he still went back to Tang Zechen. Shu Tian said it on purpose at this time, in order to give him a taste of his own medicine. She would not digest such a disgusting thing herself. She had a gentle character, but she was not a coward. As expected, hearing Shu Tian says that, Tang Guofeng and Liu Lifang both changed their expressions and subconsciously retorted, "Impossible!" Shu Tian still smiled sarcastically. "I have no reason to lie to you. Just ask Jiang Mengyao or check her flight information at that time." She was right. Just a little investigation would tell. The two of them looked at each other for a long time before they spoke in a trembling voice, "Are you, are you telling the truth?" Chapter 144 Chapter 144 Shu Tian nodded. "Absolutely yes." This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Now, not only Liu Lifang, but even Tang Guofeng could not say a word. They looked annoyed and kept ming that Jiang Mengyao caused a big mess. Shu Tian knew that they would not trust Jiang Mengyao, so with this incident, she seeded in drawing Tang Guofeng''s anger that his BY Technology being targeted to Jiang Mengyao. She had done so much wrong to Shu Tian, so it was time to pay for her actions. The unlimited forbearance would not let her be kind but be connivance. "Anything else to ask?" Looking at their angry expressions, she felt a trace of pleasure in revenge for the first time after the victory of thewsuit. The Tang family had gone too far to her for the past two years, so now they had what they deserved. Tang Guofeng didn''t expect things to be like this and to be backstabbed by Shu Tian. He blushed and didn''t say anything. It was not until a long time passed that he answered, "I''ll go back and ask about it. If it''s true, I will exin to Mr. Li." Shu Tian was happy to see this because what she had just said was true. Tang Guofeng was so ashamed that Jiang Mengyao made such a big mistake, so he would never The conversation took less than 20 minutes. Tang Guofeng and Liu Lifang left in a huff, not even saying hello to Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua, with apletely different aura from when they arrived. Shu Tian led them to the door. She closed the door, breathed a sigh of relief, called Li Han to tell him what happened in brief and went to call out her parents. "Mom and dad, they''re leaving. Come out." Ye Lihua immediately rushed out and asked nervously, "What did they say?" "Nothing." Shu Tian took off her guard and smiled lightly. "It''s all settled. They won''te back. You can rest assured." "Really?" Shu Tian nodded helplessly. "Yes, how can I lie to you?" "That''s good. They are really shameless to dare to find you even though they have done such a despicable thing. We are afraid to bother you, so we held back our anger Otherwse, your father would have beaten them up." How could a mother watch her child being bullied for no reason? She had had enough of that family. They used to look like decent people, however, everything had been exposed since thewsuit. Shu Changlei nudged his wife. "All right, it''s over. We won''t talk about them no matter what kind of life they''re living. Just pretend that they aren''t existing." "Fine. They are too annoying to be mentioned." Ye Lihua walked to the sofa, took Shu Tian''s hand and sat down. "By the way, what happened between you and that child surnamed Li?" Ye Lihua did not pay much attention to the business for she was old. However, Li Han usually did not promote himself, besides, the meetings he attended were all private. Therefore, Li Han was a "child" for Ye Lihua. But Shu Changlei knew him well. Hearing what Ye Lihua said, he interrupted her, "Child? He is a big shot in the legal profession!" Ye Lihua''s expression changed slightly. "Really? Tian, how far did you get with him?" When asked about the secret in her heart, Shu Tian''s face was a little unnaturally hot. "Nothing. Still learning more about each other." Before Ye Lihua could ask more, Shu Changlei chuckled. "We watched you grow up so we know you very well. It looks like you are in love." Shu Tian blushed even more. "Dad, what are you talking about? It''s impossible." Seeing her expression, Ye Lihua didn''t say anything but was aware of everything. She said intentionally or unintentionally. "You know best." "If you don''t want to tell me, we won''t ask, but don''t think that everything will be fine when you find him. Families with such conditions are rigid and may not be able to ept you." After all, Shu Changlei was a father, so he naturally thought more. He needed to be a wet nket for her good. Speaking of this, Shu Tian immediately remembered the two old people in the Old Resident of the Li family. She remembered the phone call clearly. Every word they said made her aggrieved. Her expression froze for a moment, fearing that they would be concerned, so she quickly covered it up. "Don''t worry, I''ll be careful." After talking for a while, Shu Tian hurried back to thepany not long after she sat down. Ye Lihua wanted to keep her for lunch, but she didn''t have time. "Leaving so early? Take your time. Don''t be in a hurry." "I see, mom. Gotta go." Looking at her leaving back, Ye Lihua sighed, "Poor thing. She works hard." "Hmph." Shu Changlei snorted but said in more approval. "Finally, she''s grown up." [...] Tang Guofeng and Ye Lihua bumped into Tang Zechen who was getting off another Mercedes when they went downstairs to pick up the car. They stopped and called at him, "Go home." Tang Zechen nced at the apartment and was confused. "Dad, didn''t you ask me toe over?" "Nonsense! You''ve disgraced me." Tang Guofeng cursed in a low voice and sat in the driver''s seat. Tang Zechen kicked the air and whispered, "What''s wrong with him?" Liu Lifang sighed and walked to her son, telling him what Shu Tian had just said. "Don''t upset your father now." "What?" Tang Zechen nearly choked. "Jiang Mengyao was going to seduce Li Han? How is that possible!" "Shu Tian looked very serious, so maybe it''s true. Call Jiang Mengyao home first. We will ask her face to face." Liu Lifang said fiercely, "If this is true, I will teach her a lesson." [...] It was almost eleven o''clock when Shu Tian returned to thepany. She greeted Wei Xiangming and went to work. There was a case about work-rted injuries. Since this was the firstwsuit she took on in HY Law Office before, she had been handling rted cases ever since. It was notplicated, and the preparations were nearing the end. After finishing it, Shu Tian found Wei Xiangming and exined that she wanted to try other types ofwsuit. "Are you sure you can?" Shu Tian said firmly. "I''m sure." "You''ve done a good job in all your previous cases. I have an important case, which was about the safe and took out the document. Shu Tian looked at the cowhide file on the table excitedly. "Yes." "Well, I''ll leave it to you. If it''s done well, the neer award this year will be yours." Wei Xiangming said and smiled. "Of course, you can ask Mr. Li if you have any difficulties. He is experienced." Li Han? Shu Tian''s lips quivered, thinking of the questions he had asked and his conditions... Shaking her head, she said, "I''d better do it myself." "A baker''s wife may bite the bun first. You have to make good use of the good resources if you have." Wei Xiangming was open-minded and handed the document to her. "Go ahead. Call me if you have any questions." When Shu Tian got the big case she had dreamed of, she was so excited that she was immersed in a state of "work makes me happy" all day long. Therefore, Li Han who was neglected for the whole day looked unhappy all the time. On the way home, when he saw that she was still reading the files, the small anger that he had endured finally burned. He grabbed her documents and threw them into the back seat. Shu Tian goggled at the man beside her in astonishment. "What are you doing?" "Why don''t you work so hard when you are alone? Do you feel bored with me?" The man deeply introspected his charm. Shu Tian secretly rolled her eyes. "Why are you jealous of my work?" "Yes." He was bold when he said something meaty, "All you can do when you''re with me is looking at me and thinking about me." Chapter 145 Chapter 145 The unhappiness in Shu Tian''s heart disappeared because of these words. He was so sweet, then she decided to let it go. They came to a hotpot restaurant, a very famous one in J City. Many people couldn''t make an appointment before, but today she found out that Li Han was a member here. They ordered a table of dishes. The delicate man sitting opposite did not eat chili, so he only used the in broth. Shu Tian had the butter spicy broth all her own. Atst, after paying the bill, she ordered a bottle of drink and said with disdain. "Life without spicy hotpot is iplete." They were in front of the car, and when he heard this, Li Han pulled her in front of him and bent over slightly, trapping her between the car and his chest. His deep dark eyes narrowed a little and lowered on her flushed little face. His sexy thin lips curled into an arc. "Iplete?" After saying that, he lowered his head and pressed it down, kissing the seductive red lips out of feeling spicy or being bitten. He caught her off-guard and she was surprised. She caught a glimpse of the crowded street and her heart was beating so fast that it almost burst out of the throat. "You..." All the words she wanted to say were stuck in her mouth. Without giving her a chance to breathe, Li Han kissed her overwhelmingly. After the kiss, she couldn''t breathe smoothly. Li Han straightened up, raised her chin with one hand, and enjoyed her swollen lips with satisfaction. "Now my life isplete." Shu Tian was in a daze for a moment before she understood what he meant, and her heart beat wildly. "Get in the car." Li Han bent his fingers and tapped her on the head gently. Shu Tian got back herposure, opened the door, and sat in. After fastening her seat belt, she thought of what happened this morning and told him everything, "By the way, do you really use a tough means to suppress the BY Technology?" He nced at her face. "Do you want to plead for them?" "No!" Shu Tian was afraid that he would misunderstand and quickly exined, "In fact, I don''t even have sympathy for the Tang family''s consequence. I just don''t want to spend so much time with them, and I don''t want to have anything to do with them anymore, do you understand?" "It''s too easy to let them go." "I know you want to vent for me, but it''s all over. It''s over from the day the verdict was announced. I just want to be with you now, and let go the rest." Shu Tian looked at him with great sincerity. "You are the one who is worth it." Her words sessfully dispelled the confusion in Li Han''s heart. He did all this for Shu Tian. If she didn''t like it, what was the point of doing this? The Tang family was already on the verge of survival. It was only a matter of time of down falling even if he didn''t do anything. It would be difficult for them to make aeback. After a moment of hesitation, Li Han finallypromised. "Okay, I promise you." Shu Tian heaved a sigh of relief and gave him apletely rxed smile. "Thank you." Li Han''s eyes were filled with every smile and move of her. He raised his hand and patted her head. "You dummie." The warm wind in the car was very strong, and it was easy to get sleepy after dinner. On the way back, Shu Tian was about to fall asleep when she heard his phone ring. It rang for a long time, but he didn''t answer. Shu Tian thought it was because he was driving and wanted to get it for him. But just as she reached out, her hand was stopped. "Don''t." Li Han saw it was Chujing on the phone and quickly hung up the phone and put it into his pocket. His voice was tense, different from usual. Shu Tian watched him do this, and she came clear out of sleepiness. She blinked and was a little confused. He... hung up? The atmosphere in the car suddenly got awkward. Shu Tian''s hand on the side of her body gradually tightened and she said carefully, "Why don''t you answer it?" "It''s nothing. Just ignore it." Li Han did not look at her, and the line of his jaw was visibly stiff. No matter how careless Shu Tian was, she realized something was wrong. Her delicate eyebrows frowned. "How do you know it''s nothing before you get it? What if something urgent happens to the "It''s nothing." The two words came out of his mouth, and the temperature around him dropped a little. The car that had just felt warm was now a little colder. By saying "It''s nothing" was undoubtedly meant that he didn''t want to talk about it anymore... Thinking of his recent movements, it was indeed a little abnormal. Shu Tian had a lot to ask him, but she kept her mouth shut. He drove the car into the underground garage in Imperial Vi. The car turned off, and the sensor lights above the head automatically lit up on their faces. The dim yellow light did not melt the sharpness on their faces. Shu Tian sat in the passenger seat and unbuckled her seat belt. Instead of getting out of the car, she turned to his face and took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind to ask, "Li Han, have you been hiding something from me recently?" He knew that Shu Tian must have sensed something when she asked this question. He knew that Shu Tian would definitely find something if he kept it a secret, but he didn''t know how to respond. Continue to hide? Obviously, she would not believe it again. As long as you lie, it''s easy to find ws, especially in front of a loved one. He didn''t say anything. He reached out and pulled thepartment under the car''s central console. There was a pack of cigarettes inside. Shu Tian caught a glimpse of it from the corner of her eye and raised her hand to press the back of his hand. "Why aren''t you talking?" It had proimed her attitude. Today, she had to ask for a result. He was really abnormal. Li Han frowned slightly and his eyes fell their touching palms. His thin lips moved slightly, and it could see the tangle in his heart. "Tian, I don''t want to lie to you." Hearing this, Shu Tian tightened her fingers on the back of his hand and quickly moved away as if she had been electrocuted. His words made her uneasy. In the end, Li Han lit the cigarette. When he was extremely agitated, only the cigarette could stabilize him a little. Property ? N?velDrama.Org. In 32 years of his life, he had never been so nervous and hesitant as he was now. His mind was filled with two voices fighting again, telling her, or not telling her? After weighing it for a long time, he still didn''t dare to take the risk, the consequences of telling her might not be something he could bear. In his silence, Shu Tian''s heart was clenched and her breathing became weak. "What... is it?" "It''s not about you." A slight smoke rose from his lips. "It''s not a big deal and it takes time to deal. To be honest, I know I can''t hide it from you, but I''m not ready to tell you." His hand, which was holding the cigarette, trembled slightly, and it was barely noticeable. "Tian, do you trust me?" Chapter 146 Chapter 146 Of course, Shu Tian was willing to believe it. If she wasn¡¯t, she would not do this. Even if he did not return home all night, she never question him. She knew he was busy, so she didn¡¯t want to put an additional burden on him. But now he didn¡¯t even have a word of exnation, how could she continue to believe him? As if he could see what she was thinking, the man said in a deep voice, "It''s not that I don''t want to tell you. I haven''t thought of how to tell you." Shu Tian took a deep breath and her voice trembled uncontrobly. "Just tell me the truth." Li Han fiercely took a drag of smoke. Maybe he choked so he suddenly coughed, which made Shu Tian''s heart pull up. Seeing his brows furrowed because of ufortableness, Shu Tian impulsively snatched the cigarette from his hand and put it out off the top of her head. "If you''re not well, don''t smoke. Is that too difficult to answer my question?" "It''s not difficult." He answered quickly. His gaze fell casually in front of her, not on her. "I just don''t want you to overthink." "But now I''m worrying now." Shu Tian didn''t understand why he hid it. "Did you treat me as your girlfriend?" Hearing this, the man finally turned around and fixed his eyes on her. "To me, you are more important than a girlfriend." "Then why weren¡¯t you willing to tell me? Is there something that I can''t know?" Shu Tian did not want to force him or be aggressive, but now it was really hard for her to control the rising spections and doubts in her heart. If many words were not out in the open instantly, perhaps they would never have a chance to speak. Although she had no idea how serious the matter that Li Han covered up was, at least the thing put him through was not simple. The man''s handsome features were shrouded in the dim light, half bright and half dark. "Tian, can you give me some time? When I fix this up, I''ll definitely tell you." Shu Tian opened her mouth and closed it again and was genuinely disappointed. "What about the time? How long do you need?" "I don''t know." With these words, he seemed to find it ridiculous and snorted. "I''ll do it as soon as possible." There was a brief pause in the car, and Shu Tian didn''t even know how to answer him. She wanted him to exin everything now, but... Gazing at the man''s gloomy expression, she could not do that. There was a long silence. Shu Tian''s hands by her side were clenched and unclenched spasmodically. Her hesitation was even more. In the end, shepromised. "Well, since it''s so hard for you to speak, I won''t force you. Tell me when the day you want to." She made it sound so easy, but it wasn¡¯t her real thoughts. Li Han saw that the rity in her eyes was reced by distrust. He was worried but could not find any words to exin. He nodded twice. "Okay." A conversation ended up unhappily, and Li Han''s reticence was always a disguised hurt to Shu Tian. Therefore, even the next day, she was not in the mood. After work, Ye Lihua called her to go back for dinner. Shu Tian had not made adjustments to face Li Han, so she agreed to go over. After dinner and sitting for a while, Ye Lihua urged her to go back because it was not early. She was afraid that it would be unsafe on the way when the night was dark. Shu Tian had no intention of leaving. But she was afraid that Ye Lihua would overthink if she said she wanted to spend the night here. After being in the struggle for a while, she decided to leave. She went back to the Imperial Vi by taxi. The taxi stopped at the front entrance of the vi. Looking at the three-story house in the darkness, Shu Tian''s expectations were gradually dampened down. He hadn''te home yet. "Miss, you''re here." The driver urged her because she didn¡¯t get off the taxi for a long time. Shu Tian came back to her sense and paid before getting out of the car. [...] On the other side, Li Han knew that Shu Tian had returned home today. He drove to the North Vis. Today Jiang Chujing was taking weekly routine checkups. Ling Junze and George''s assistant were all there. The squat building behind the vi was changed into a recovery room with all kinds of equipment. Li Han watched the screen which showed that Jiang Chujing was pushed into various instruments, and then pushed out after a pause. It took about 20 checks before it was over. Ling Junze look rxed after getting the just arrived test results. "Not bad, your biological measures are good. You don''t have to worry too much. It''s not a big problem." Li Han breathed a sigh of relief. After all, it was the first time that Jiang Chujing returned to the country since she went abroad five years ago. He was afraid that she didn¡¯t limatize herself, which would cause her illness to get worse. After Jiang Chujing finished the checkup, she immediately returned to Li Han''s room and breathed a sigh of relief after she knew the good result. "That''s great. I don''t have to go now. I can stay by your side!" She had said these words countless times since she returned to the country. Li Han was numb to her words. Ling Junze curled his lips mysteriously. "By the way, Han, I wasn¡¯t as sensitive to ultraviolet light as before recently. I haven''t enjoyed the outside world for five years. Let¡¯s hang out since my physical condition is stable this time." Jiang Chujing suggested excitedly. Li Han met her expectant gaze and spoke coldly. "No, you haven''t fully recovered yet. You have to be careful." He couldn¡¯t take a load off his mind until Jiang Chujing was fully restored to health. He was not for others. If there was something wrong with her, he had no idea if he could hide it from Shu Tian. Jiang Chujing wasn¡¯t surprised by his rejection, but she didn''t want to give up easily! She gazed at Ling Junze from the corner of her eye and changed the subject. " Doctor Ling said that I''m well and extremely meticulous treatment was no need. Let''s find a private club and get together. Nothing will happen. I know my physical condition very well. Don''t worry." She deliberately used Ling Junze''s words to persuade him, which made Ling Junze''s eyebrows almost This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. raised, but he couldn''t say anything. He said this because he suspected that Jiang Chujing was pretending to be weak. Who knew she used these words to achieve her goals? Li Han said nothing. At the same time, he didn''t insist on refusing her. Jiang Chujing knew that he was wavering, so she stepped forward, approached him, and muttered, "Han, I only have such a wish. Can you promise me? I''ve been a freaking ghost for more than five years. I really want to go out for a walk. I beg you to reconsider." Since she put it that way, it was seemed heartless for Li Han to refuse her. Jiang Chujing suddenly put her hand into her pocket and fumbled for something with a rustling sound. When she took it out, it was a photo and Jiang Chujing''s parents were in it. "I want to go to this ce where my parents fell in love. I don''t know what has be of it by now. If they knew I was there, they would be happy." Ling Junze finally understood why Li Han was nostalgic about the past. Anyway, he would never forget because Jiang Chujing mentioned it frequently. This woman was too selfish, extreme, and scary. In the end, Li Han didn¡¯t refuse her. Even though he was reluctant, he agreed to her request. After Li Han and Ling Junze left, the grin vanished from Jiang Chujing''s face. She picked up her phone and dialed a number. "Hello, is that Jiang Mengyao?" Chapter 147 Chapter 147 After Jiang Mengyao returned to J City, Tang Guofeng and Liu Lifang paid her an unexpected visit a few dayster. She was rebuffed by Li Han, so she intended to be with Tang Zechen instead. Although he was quite a loser now, he still had apany that was better than nothing. But to her surprise, what happened in Q City actually reach Tang Guofeng so soon. When Tang Guofeng questioned her, she did not admit it, but then she learned that it was Shu Tian who exposed it. Well, then she did not even have a chance to defend herself. Tang Zechen took back all the properties he had gifted her and refused to be with her ever again, and the Tang family also shut the door upon her face. Jiang Mengyao was burning in hatred, and she bore a grudge to Shu Tian so intense that she yearned to tear her apart alive. At this moment, she received a call from a mysterious woman. "Who are you?" Jiang Chujing rubbed the pearl bracelet in her hand and her eyes flickered. "You don''t have to care about who I am. You just need to know that I can help you." "Oh, you''re so confident." Jiang Mengyao didn''t believe it at all. "You don''t even dare to say your name. Why should I believe you?" Jiang Chujing curled her lips coldly. "Because I know that you''re in a desperate situation and because I know everything about Li Han and Shu Tian... You''ve been plotted by Shu Tian and lost the support of the Tang family." Jiang Mengyao was about to hang up, but when she heard this, she stopped abruptly. "Who the hell are you?" "It doesn''t matter who I am. As long as you do as I say, you won''t suffer a loss." "What do you want to do?" "When the timees, I will tell you. During this period of time, just stop stirring up troubles. Otherwise, no one can help you." Jiang Mengyao felt insecure. "Why are you helping me?" Jiang Chujing seemed to hear something ridiculous. "It''s fair that I help you get what you want and you give me what I want, right?" Jiang Mengyao wanted to say something else, but Jiang Chujing had run out of patience to listen. She sensitively detected the sound of approaching footsteps outside the door and interrupted Jiang Mengyao in a hurry. "I''ll contact you in the future, bye." As soon as the phone was cut off, Li Wei walked up to her and nced at her phone from the corner of his eye. He looked a little confused, but as a staff member, he naturally couldn''t ask anything more. "Miss Jiang, you just finished the examination. You should rest for a while." Jiang Chujing hurriedly adjusted her expression and pretended a rxed smile. "I just called Li Han on the phone. He has left his wallet here. It''s time for me to rest anyway." Hearing her words and seeing her happy expression, Li Wei felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart. Ever since thest time he brought her back from abroad, his attention had been unintentionally drawn to this fragile woman. This tender feeling came quickly, even a little inexplicably, but it was substantial. He couldn''t ignore it. Jiang Chujing turned around and walked towards the bedroom. After a few steps, she turned around as if something had suddenly urred to her. Looking at Li Wei''s somewhat rough face, she tried to smother the disgust in her heart and pretended to be grateful. "By the way, thank you for helping me get Jiang Mengyao''s phone number. I don''t mean anything else. I just don''t want her to continue pestering Han. Don''t tell anyone, please?" Li Wei had heard of what Jiang Mengyao had done to Li Han, and Jiang Chujing had always loved Li Han deeply. So it was understandable that she had warned Jiang Mengyao. "Don''t worry. I won''t tell anyone." This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Jiang Chujing''sden heart became lighter. "Thank you. You don''t have to call me Miss Jiang in the future. Just call me Chujing in private." Although she despised Li Wei from the bottom of her heart, for he looked rough and rude, she endured her revulsion for the sake of his usefulness. Hearing what she said, Li Wei suddenly felt that everything was worth it, and the joy in his eyes was about to spill out. "Chujing?" "Yes!" Only then did Jiang Chujing enter the room with satisfaction. [...] Shu Tian and Li Han had been maintaining harmony in disguise for nearly a week. During this period, they went to work on time every day and dined together. asionally, Li Han worked overtime, but he didn''t stay out all night as he had done before. However, Shu Tian still felt that something had changed. For example, when he was busy in the study, he never took the initiative to ask her in. Also, when he returnedte, he always refused to give her an excuse. For the first time, Li Han gave Shu Tian a sense of uncertainty. She didn''t even know what he was thinking. Constrain, depression, and vexation mingled in her heart. With all kinds of emotions intertwining, Shu Tian couldn''t bear it eventually. Coincidentally, Li Han had something to do tonight, so she called Fu Qingtong out to drink. When old friends met, there was no need to exin anything. After a few drinks, there was no secret between them. Shu Tian poured out everything that had happened recently, while Fu Qingtong echoed and scolded Li Han. The two of them held the bottle and giggled goofily. "There is never a good man!" "Yes!" "Why can they do whatever they want? They don''t even deserve to help carry my shoes!" "Yes!" They still did not enjoy themselves to their heart''s content when they had already guzzled down all the liquor during their meal. There was a small bar nearby where Fu Qingtong had paid for its membership, so the two of them immediately concurred to move to the bar and continue with their alcoholic battle. Fu Qingtong was in an ecstatic mood and ordered a champagne tower piled up high, striking the men around dumbfounded and leading to the manager of the bar openly expressing gratitude to her. Imported wines were different for they were extremely strong liquors. After a few rounds, Shu Tian felt her remaining reason drift away. She took her cell phone to the bathroom to wash her face but was blocked by a young man. "Pretty, did youe alone?" The man was wearing a printed long-sleeved shirt, his hair neatly Shu Tian was already dizzy and was about to vomit when she smelled it. She pushed him away to go to the bathroom but was grabbed by this man on the wrist again after she managed to take one step. "Don''t go. Let''s have a drink together?" Shu Tian struggled but did not break free. Beyond tipsy, she became impatient. "No time!" "Oh, you have quite a temper. I like it." As the man spoke, his hand had already wrapped around her shoulder, as if he was going to hug her. Shu Tian felt nauseous and was about to speak when the phone in her hand suddenly rang. She picked it up without looking at who it was. "Hello, who is it?" On the other end of the phone, Li Han was driving home. When he heard her lisp, he immediately mmed the steering wheel and parked the car to the side of the road with a creak. The man narrowed his eyes slightly, his sharp pupils turning cold, and his voice icy-cold when he heard the noiseing from the other end. "Where are you?" "Me?" Shu Tian nced around. Before she could speak, the man behind her eagerly attempted to hug her. "Hey, pretty, why have you still not done with your call? Come into my private room and continue with your call. It''s quiet over there..." "I''m noting, don''t drag me..." Li Han was just worried about her just now, if not failing to stifle his rage as he was at present. As he imagined what was about to happen, the viciousness and fury in his eyes were frightening. "Shu Tian, let me ask you again, where are you now?" Chapter 148 Chapter 148 In a panic, Shu Tian casually gave out the address. The man kept tugging at her, due to which the call was hung up unintentionally. Fu Qingtong had been waiting for Shu Tian for a long time but didn''t see her. She was looking for her along the way, not to expect to see such a scene in the corridor. She rushed over and pulled the man away. "What are you doing?" Being interrupted, and the man was about to lose his temper at Fu Qingtong but saw her beautiful face. The dirty words he was about to curse became teasing words. "Oh, beautiful friend? Good. Let''s y together." The man reached out and Fu Qingtong pped his hand away. "Get out!" "What? Get out? I''ll make you moan persistently in a while!" Seeing that he couldn''t handle the two women, the man turned around and gave a look to another This kind of thing wasmon in bars, and people were so drunk that no one cared about them at all. Shu Tian was already drunk and her body was so weak that she could not use any strength. After a few back and forth, she was about to be dragged into the room. She opened her mouth and was about to give him a hard bite. Suddenly, a sharp cold wind brushed past from behind and she only saw a quick figure. The man who had been holding her hand before staggered out. The man was unprepared and only felt a burning pain in his stomach. He was knocked down by a huge force and his tailbone hit the ground as if it had been cracked. He had been flirting with some girls just now but now he could only curl up on the ground regardless of his image. Against the light, he wanted to see who it was, but he was so scared that he was about to pee when he saw the person. "Li, Mr. Li?" ''Good. He knows me.'' "Did you do anything to her?" Li Han''s thin lips parted slightly. Only a few words froze the man. The man endured the pain to change from half lying to lying on his stomach. "No, no, I didn''t... Ouch!" Before he could finish his exnation, Li Han had already punched the man in the face. His fists were very hard, and the breaking sound of the man''s nose bone seemed to be heard. The music in the bar did not stop, but there were already a lot of onlookers quietly watching the show. The bar manager and the security guard stood aside and did not dare to act rashly. It was not that they did not want to stop, but... they didn''t dare to. Everyone in J City knew Li Han, especially in ces like a bar. All the bosses knew their business was a little sensitive, so they warned their employees to know Li Han. Even if Li Han tore this ce apart, the boss probably wouldn''t dare to say anything. Li Han punched him one after another, showing that he would punch him into pieces. Blood flowed out of the man''s nose and mouth, and Li Han didn''t stop until the man fainted. In the world of adults, strategies and methods would be valued more. The thing he disdained the most was to fight directly. It was the first time he had beat someone like this. Seeing Shu Tian half in his arms, Li Han couldn''t help it. He used the beige handkerchief to wipe his palm gently, who was elegant and different from the aggressive man before. Shu Tian waspletely dumbfounded. She was dumb because of the alcohol and couldn''t even stand up straight in a corner. Just as everyone was watching the y and was silently worried for Shu Tian, the man bent down and picked the woman up without saying a word. Although carried her up in a seemingly rude way, he still carefully protected her neck, which made the women around him envious greatly. Fu Qingtong was still able to walk upright and staggered out of the bar. When she went out, she saw Li Han shove Shu Tian into the car so she quickly trotted over. Unfortunately, her legs were out of control and she stumbled and fell to the ground... Fu Qingtong eximed and closed her eyes in preparation for the pain, but the imagined pain did not hit her. Instead, it was a warm and hard embrace that held her. Ah? Why didn''t it hurt? One second, two seconds, five seconds... Fu Qingtong opened her eyes and saw a handsome face in her deep memory but also made her resentful. It was him?! "Why are you here?" Fu Qingtong wanted to jump three meters away, but the man was one step faster than her and had already held her into his arms. A deep and gentle voice came from above. "Don''t mess around, or I''ll tie you up this time." Hearing this, things she sufferedst time immediately appeared in Fu Qingtong''s mind. N?velDrama.Org holds this content. "Let go of me! I''m going to find Shu Tian!" As she spoke, she struggled to walk towards Li Han''s car. Ji Chuanyi easily controlled her, and he looked helpless. "They are a couple. Why are you involved in it?" "No way! Li Han stayed out all night himself. Why should he get close to Shu Tian?" The more Fu Qingtong spoke, the angrier she became. Seeing that the car had driven away and she had not yet broken free, she was so angry that she pped Ji Chuanyi on the shoulder. "Youwyers are not good people! You are dignified and well-dressed but with beast heart!" Ji Chuanyi was speechless. Fu Qingtong broke free from his arms and pointed at his handsome face. She said in a fierce tone. "What? I''m cursing you!" "..." Well, it was the first time a woman pointed at his nose and scolded him for his 32 years. He felt funny and interesting. Fu Qingtong cursed and turned to leave without stopping for a second. Although she walked unsteadily, there was a sense of stubbornness on her back. Ji Chuanyi shook his head, still afraid that something would happen to her, so he drove the car and followed her unhurriedly, deliberately turning on the high beam to shine on her. Fu Qingtong tried to ignore him and the car behind her, but her eyes hurt from the two strong lights. She couldn''t bear it and finally knocked on the man''s window. The three knocks were loud enough to tell how furious she was. Ji Chuanyi sat in the car and looked at the drunken and angry face outside. He wanted tough. After leisurely turning down the window, the smile on his face had been put away. "Why?" "Why?!" Fu Qingtong smiled out of anger. "What do you mean by turning on the highlights on full beam?" Ji Chuanyi raised his brows slightly, and for the first time, he looked at the woman seriously. A light finally appeared in the bottom of his eyes, which had always been rational and restrained. "Get in the car." [...] Li Han sped at an average speed of 180 paces, shortening the time to less than 40 minutes. The car was parked in the yard. The man unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car. He strode around the front of the car to the front passenger seat and pulled the woman out of the seat. Shu Tian was wearing high heels and couldn''t keep up with him. She was almost dragged by him from the entrance of the vi to the living room. With a "bang", all the lights in the living room were turned on, and the bright light instantly lit up the whole room. Before she could get used to it, he suddenly pinched her cheeks. He was so furious that he didn''t pay attention to his strength and two red marks appeared on her cheek. Shu Tian pushed him twice, which undoubtedly provoke him more. Li Han looked at her eyes which were a little distracted, smelled the strong smell of alcoholing from her body, and his eyes were as cold as ice. "Exin, why are you there, huh?" Chapter 149 Chapter 149 Sharp eyesight was fixing on her face, like gouging out her flesh. However, Shu Tian was so drunk that she blinked hard a few times before she could barely see who it was. Looking at the handsome face close by, she grinned. "Li Han." She moved closer and reached out to hug the man''s muscr waist. Before she could touch him, she was pushed back to her original ce. She felt aggrieved and pursed her lips. Li Han''s eyes were deep and his voice was colder than ever. "Tell me what you did tonight, huh?" "What am I doing?" Shu Tian thought for a moment and her mind was in a mess. "I forget about it..." Forget? Li Han narrowed his eyes. "Well, good." Without waiting for Shu Tian to understand his meaning, the man had already lifted her up. Yes, he directly held her on his shoulder and strode towards the second floor. Shu Tian could only feel all her blood rushing to her head. She was dizzy and her stomach hurt from his shoulder. However, she had vomited once in the bar before and could not vomit anything except retching. When she finally reached the bedroom, Li Han did not put her on the bed but went straight into the bathroom. The frosted ss door opened. Shu Tian only felt the world spinning and then she found herself standing under the shower. She bent down slightly to protect her stomach and felt a little ufortable. Li Han''s heart sank when he saw her movements, but when he thought of her being drunkte at night in the bar and being hijacked by others, he couldn''t help but feel angry. N?velDrama.Org holds this content. "You''ve been so bold. How dare you get drunk and flirt with another man?" His words were harsh and he talked without any mercy. No matter how drunk Shu Tian was, she could still figure out his words'' meaning. Not to mention that his tone was really scared now. But when she heard him say that, the emotion that had umted in her heart over the past few days gradually showed up. "You can stay out all night without exining. Why can''t I?" Her words stopped everything Li Han wanted to say, froze his heart as well. "Youpare with me?" He smiled helplessly. "Well, can you solve it yourself? What would happen if I didn''t go just now? Have you thought about it?" His heart sank at the thought of what had just happened. If he had gone a littleter, she would have been dragged into the private room. Shu Tian bit her lip, her eyes reddened, and she couldn''t help being emotional. "Yes, you can handle everything. No one dares to do anything to you, including me. Although I''m almost crazy with doubts, I have no choice but to believe you!" She was indeed moved by what he said, but he had changed too much recently. Although she wanted to ept it, she was inevitably disappointed and sad when those things really happened. She also had a possessive desire. She also wanted him only to stay with her and look at her, ignoring anything. But things went against her wishes. What she wanted had be an extravagant hope. It was not that Li Han did not know Shu Tian was in a dilemma, but he was already too busy to take care of his own business and could only give her the greatest assurance on the only thing he could do. But even so, it was not enough. She still had a grudge. "You don''t believe me." He didn''t ask her but said in a derative tone. Shu Tian suddenly lost her ration and she looked up to admit, "Yes, I don''t believe you." She looked at the man''s increasingly gloomy face and said unhappily, "You don''t say anything. You only prevaricate me, how do you expect me to believe you? Li Han, I don''t know what you''ve been doing or thinkingtely. You make me feel like a dispensable person to you!" "A dispensable person?" Her sharp attitude hurt him. "Will I bring a dispensable woman into my home?" He had always thought that although he was not good at expressing himself, she still knew his love for her. He never thought that she would degrade him to this extent. Shu Tian knew he wouldn''t, but she had heard enough of this answer. What she wanted was a straightforward answer, not a guess. Her trust was diminishing, and her enthusiasm was evading. "I don''t know." She leaned against the cold wall behind her and raised her hand to cover her palm- sized face. "If you stay away from me, I''ll feel insecure. I really can''t understand you now..." He was so outstanding and excellent that he would always be the focus even if he didn''t say anything, and she was just an ordinary person. She had even divorced. As long as his attitude became cold, she would have no confidence at all. "Shu Tian, look at me." Li Han pulled her hand away and pinched her chin with his index finger and thumb, forcing her to look straight at him. "Don''t force me in this way, okay?" Thest thing he wanted to see was the scene at the bar. He would rather sheined and lost her temper than see her abandon herself to vice. Hearing this, Shu Tian suddenly chuckled, and tears began to well up in her eyes. "I forced you? If I knew that loving you would be so painful, I really hope I didn''t fall in love with you." Her words were t but like an atomic bomb exploding in the air. Li Han looked at the woman in front of him in disbelief and even thought that he had acousma. "What did you say?" There was a slight tremor in his deep and maic voice. Shu Tian saw the pain in his face and his stiffness. "If I knew that loving you would be so painful, I really hope I..." Before she could finish speaking, the man had already kissed him passionately, stopping all her unspoken words. He was not gentle at all, and Shu Tian let out a low cry in pain. He swallowed all her breath, it was like a tsunami in the middle of the night raging over her territory. Shu Tian was out of breath several times and pressed her hands against the man''s chest in a daze. Under her palms, through his clothes, she seemed to be able to feel the heat. "Li, Li Han... Don''t..." She couldn''t speak fluently and her voice was intermittent. As if he hadn''t heard of it, the man left before she was about to suffocate. His forehead was pressed against hers, and his hot breath fell on her face. "You''d rather never fall in love with me? Are you regretful?" Shu Tian was like a stranded fish, panting desperately, and she was almost sober for his sullen look. Those deep eyes were like eyes of the eagle hovering in the night sky, with a chilling cold light, sharp and fierce. "Shu Tian, you must love me." "No one can dictate others'' feelings. I have the final say!" Shu Tian was driven crazy by his tough attitude, but her words hit Li Han''s bottom line. He smiled and didn''t speak. He would use his actions to prove who had the final say! The man lifted her up with his strong arms and ced her on the countertop of the sink. He kissed her fair skin with his coll mouth, leaving one ambiguous red mark after another... Shu Tian was stung by the cold table and kept pushing him away. However, she didn''t have much strength in her hands. "No..." "No?" After some lingering, his lips were unusually red, like a demon who came to the world to take people''s hearts and souls. "I''ll give it to you. You have to say yes." Chapter 150 Chapter 150 The next morning, Shu Tian wasn''t wakened up by the rm clock but by the chills and soreness in her body. The first thing she did when she woke up was to see if the man next to her was still there. As expected, he was not there. He had returned homete from work and then hadn''t returned home at night. Now she even couldn''t see him after getting up. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g! Shu Tian sneered at herself. She didn''t know how to face it. She was even used to failing to see him. She drank too muchst night, and only a few scenes shed through her mind, including that he brought her back from the bar. She sat still for a moment, got up, put on her shoes, and walked into the bathroom. There were still the clothes she worest night in the bathroom, which was enough to show how fierce the battle was. He had almost been venting on her all the time. She was unwilling, but they knew each other so well that shepletely lost herself and was controlled by him in every move. Standing in front of the mirror, Shu Tian pulled open a corner of her nightgown. Her body was covered with traces left by him. There were green and purple intertwined, looking shocking. Ever since they had officially been together, he had rarely been so violent. Even in the love affairs, he was always concerned about her feelings. Last night, he really lost his mind. Shu Tian did not dare to look at it, afraid that she would lose control of her emotions again. She turned around, took off her nightgown, and took a warm bath calmly. After she took a shower, she didn''t feel rxed, but she felt heavier. Her head was a little dizzy. Shu Tian made a cup of oatmeal and took a taxi to thepany just in time. After the morning meeting, she received a call from Fu Qingtong, "Are you okay?" Fu Qingtong''s voice was still a little hoarse. It was obvious that she just woke up. Shu Tian walked to the safe passage, "It''s okay. How about you? Where did you sleepst night?" On the other end of the phone, Fu Qingtong obviously paused before continuing to say, "I''m at the hotel." They really knew each other too well. They could hear anything strange in a sentence. Shu Tian frowned, "Didn''t anything happen to youst night?" "It''s okay, it''s okay. What could happen to me..." Fu Qingtong raised her voice on purpose, but it could not hide her guilt. Shu Tian said in a serious tone, "How did you go to the hotelst night? Did someone pick you up?" At this point, it was difficult for Fu Qingtong to hide it. With Li Han and Ji Chuanyi''s rtionship, Shu Tian would know it sooner orter. Only then did she exin everything that happenedst night, "When we arrived at the hotel, you know, I was a little drunk and I was a little out of my mind. I forgot exactly what happened. I just remembered that I had found him. As for how we slept togetherter... I really forgot." Shu Tian''s eyelids twitched. Thinking of Ji Chuanyi''s delicate and gentle face and Fu Qingtong, she really didn''t believe it. After a long time, she said, "Did you... sleep together?" On the other end of the phone, Fu Qingtong sat on the big bed, looked at the messy clothes on the floor, and scratched her hair in confusion. She replied in a low voice, "Yes." Shu Tian was extremely shocked, " Do you know that you''re drunk? "Yes." "Then why did you do that?" Now, it was Fu Qingtong who didn''t know what to say. She was also shocked and at a loss. When she woke up this morning and recalled all this, she really wanted to die. She actually slept with a man she scolded every day?! God was ying with her... "What do you want to do?" Things had already happened. They could only do something to make up for it. Fu Qingtong said in a depressed voice, "What can I do? In the adult world, I can''t me anyone for the thing I do willingly. Just ept it." Hearing what she said, Shu Tian couldn''t bear to continue ming her. She didn''t know what had happened between Fu Qingtong and Ji Chuanyi, but she still med Ji Chuanyi in her heart. No matter what happened, Fu Qingtong had drunk too muchst night. As a rational and responsible man, he shouldn''t take advantage of her. After hanging up the phone, Shu Tian hesitated for a moment and took the elevator to Ji Chuanyi''s office. It was next to Li Han''s office. She knocked on the door and was secretly d that she did not meet Li Han. However, as soon as the door opened, she saw Ji Chuanyi and Li Han sitting on the reception sofa in the middle. Shu Tian paused. If the secretary weren''t there, she really wanted to turn around and leave. Obviously, Li Han did not expect to meet her in Ji Chuanyi''s office. He raised his dark eyes slightly but he controlled himself. He moved his oppressive gaze away. The time he looked at her was less than three seconds, and then he looked away immediately. Shu Tian wanted to leave, but she was provoked by his reaction and changed her mind. He didn''t even care. Why did she have to avoid him? When Ji Chuanyi saw Shu Tian walking over, he thought he was looking for Li Han, "Do you have something to talk about? Do you need me to step aside for a while?" Unexpectedly, Shu Tian said directly, "Mr. Ji, I''m here for you." "For me?" Ji Chuanyi nced at the cold man from the corner of his eye and was puzzled, "What''s the matter?" Shu Tian took a breath, "About my friend. I want to talk to you alone first." She emphasized the word "alone" in case Li Han couldn''t understand what she meant. Ji Chuanyi understood as soon as he heard this. Last night, he and Fu Qingtong... "It is the work time. You should talk about private matters after work." Before they could talk more, a cold voice cut in. Shu Tian rubbed her hands and couldn''t help but refute, "How did Mr. Li know it was a private matter? What if it was a business matter?" "You can''t talk about business here." He put down the folder in his hand and his eyes fell on her, looking dominant, "You are going over your head." "You are going over your head." The words fell into Shu Tian''s ears, which was an unspeakable irony, "Mr. Li is really scrupulous in separating public from private interests." The man didn''t say anything. His strong and slender legs were crossed. He was shorter than her when he sat there, but it seemed that he was looking down on her, making Shu Tian feel herself so small in front of him. Ji Chuanyi saw that the atmosphere was not right and immediately came out to smooth things over, "Shu Tian, just say it directly. Li Han is not an outsider. You don''t have to call me Mr. Ji. Just do as usual." If it were something else, Shu Tian would never have chosen to say it at this time, but it was about Fu Qingtong, and she didn''t want to dy it. "Chuanyi, what happened between you and Tongst night?" "Nothing. That''s what she told you." Ji Chuanyi''s attitude was much more straightforward than she had imagined. Shu Tian bit her lips and let go, saying with hesitation, "Do you like Tong or... was it just an ident?" "An ident." Ji Chuanyi blurted out without thinking, breaking herst unrealistic fantasy. His rational and calm expression seemed to say that everythingst night was just an impulse, not love. Chapter 151 Chapter 151 Even Li Han looked at him with a trace of surprise and confusion as soon as he finished speaking. Shu Tian only felt her head, which was already burning and aching, be even heavier. "Chuanyi, Tong is my best friend. I would be..." Halfway through, she couldn''t continue. There were acquaintances on both sides. Fu Qingtong and she had been good friends for so many years while Ji Chuanyi helped her a lot at work. She couldn''t say anything that went too far. She could only stop now. Li Han quietly clenched his fingers on the side of his thighs seeing her sway unsteadily. He was afraid that he would uncontrobly step forward and pull her into his arms. Ji Chuanyi sighed slightly. "Shu Tian, this is between me and her and I''ll handle it well. I know you''re good friends but I didn''t force herst night. It''s not asplicated as you think. I hope you don''t get involved, okay?" Shu Tian choked. "I know I shouldn''t have interfered in this and I don''t even have the right but Tong is my best friend. If she''s just a suddenness to you, I hope you can stop now." Since what had happened could not be erased, she did not want Fu Qingtong to suffer any more harm for this thing. Hearing this, Ji Chuanyi''s calm look finally changed. Her words were undoubtedly telling him to stay away from her since he didn''t like her. Everything that happenedst night shed through Ji Chuanyi''s mind. The woman''s white and dazzling skin, her amorous and watery eyes, and the bright red on the bedsheet he saw when he left... The office fell into a brief silence and the air seemed to have condensed. Shu Tian was even suppressing her breath. Suddenly, the man sitting beside her moved and she unconsciously followed him from the corner of her eye. It was Li Han who moved his leg a little. His long, straight legs looked even more powerful under his trousers. His legs parted slightly and he straightened his upper body. Then he moved his thin lips to speak in a cold and heartless voice. "Since you know you shouldn''t interfere, you should stop." His words were out of some anger but more sincerity for her own good. Unfortunately, Shu Tian was so angry with himst night that she went into a state of hostility and didn''t listen to anything he said. She just wanted to refute, "I said that she is my best friend..." Li Han interrupted her directly before she finished speaking, "Friend? Have you forgotten everything before? Do you think that she will appreciate you if you treat her well in your manner?" He meant something. He was mocking her with what Jiang Mengyao had done before. Shu Tian could understand his meaning but she was still heartbroken. Everything in the past was always a scar on her heart and his words now undoubtedly inmed it. Was she the one who deserved it in his heart? Shu Tian blinked her eyes quickly and all kinds of emotions in her heart turned into the red rims around her eyes. She pulled the corner of her lips in self-deprecation but was unable to smile, "Well, I deserved it all. Are you satisfied now?" Shu Tian turned around and walked out without stopping for a second after speaking as if she would be if she stayed here any longer. Ji Chuanyi looked at the slender figure that had disappeared from his sight and turned to ask Li Han, "Did you have a fight?" The man stared at the figure until it was blocked by the door and couldn''t be seen anymore. "Well, I have many things to do recently but she deliberately provoked me. She was drunk at the barst night but now she is disgruntled before I can even me her for what happenedst night." "Shu Tian is young. Talk to her in a good manner and don''t always scold her. She can''t be more usible than you." Li Han pulled his lip and seemed not to be rxed. "There were so many things happening in the north of the city recently. Let''s talk about it after this period of time." Ji Chuanyi sighed silently. "Okay." "I''ll go first." Li Han took the two documents on the table and stood up. Suddenly, he thought of something and stopped to instruct Ji Chuanyi, "Be careful about Fu Qingtong. Don''t go too far." Ji Chuanyi was dumbfounded for a moment. When he came to his senses, the man had already walked out of the office. He looked at the man''s strong back and shook his head helplessly. Obviously, he cared so much about what Shu Tian said but why did he pretend to be careless just now? [...] On the other side, the police soon came to Jiang Mengyao about what she did to Li Han in Q Cityst time after she lost the Tang family, herst backing. This thing could be big or small. It was nothing more than harassment but it could also be a kidnapping so she would be sentenced if they wanted to. Moreover, Li Han got involved. Jiang Mengyao knew that she would definitely be in big trouble. Therefore, she left her residence in advance before the police came to arrest her. She didn''t take any valuables but her ID card, bank card, and a little deposit. On her way to escape, she was extremely nervous. She thought for a long time but found no one who could help her. In a hurry, she thought of the mysterious one who called her before and decided to call back. The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up. Then the woman''s hoarse voice came out, "Hello, what do you want me for?" There was no doubt that she still remembered her. "You, you, didn''t you say you could help me before? The police are now looking for me because of what I did in Q City. I''ve already run away but I have no ce to stay. Can you help me?" Jiang Mengyao''s stumbling words were enough to show how anxious and flustered she was at the moment. At this moment, Jiang Chujing was standing in the master bedroom on the second floor of the vi, looking out the window at the Chinese ilex in the yard. She had no sympathy for her at all and even smiled. "If you told me early, I might be able to help you. Now that the police havee to you, it''s useless for you to look for me anymore." Property ? N?velDrama.Org. "Then what should I do? Didn''t you say you wanted me to help you in the future? I would definitely be sentenced if I am locked up this time..." Thinking of what would happen in the future, Jiang Mengyao couldn''t even say anything more and sobbed in a low voice. Jiang Chujing took the phone away from her ear with a look of disgust when hearing her sobs. Then she said after calming herself down, "Find a ce to hide first. I''ll contact you in three days." "Three days?" Jiang Mengyao was a little dissatisfied with this answer. "Now that technology is so advanced and they can do everything with the inte! I''m afraid I can''t hide for three days. I''ll be caught then..." "Then there''s nothing I can do. I''ll let you do one thing for me in three days. If you seed, I can guarantee that you''ll get what you want." Jiang Chujing gave her the first empty promise. She didn''t need any fancy words to provoke her because she knew very well how difficult Jiang Mengyao was now. Jiang Mengyao had no better choice but to trust her. Jiang Mengyao took a deep breath and said doubtfully, "Are you serious?" Jiang Chujing sneered disdainfully. "What good is it for me to lie to you?" Hearing the woman''s confident voice, Jiang Mengyao gritted her teeth and decided to trust her words." Well, three days, just three days. I''ll wait for you! Chapter 152 Chapter 152 Ever since she got drunk at the bar, he hadn''t had a meal at home for two days. Shu Tian knew that he was waiting for her to admit her mistake first and she also knew that it was her to me this time. However, she couldn''t just say sorry to him so easily when thinking about what he had done recently. Then a cold war broke out. At this moment, what Shu Tian did not expect was that the two elders of the Li family actuallye to her. It was a precious Saturday and Shu Tian slept upstairs. Li Han seemed to have a half-day schedule and meeting today. As soon as she opened her eyes, she heard the doorbelling from the door. It was before 9:30 am. Who would it be? Ever since Shu Tian moved into Imperial Vi, she had never seen anyone elseing here except Li Han''s several best friends and there were no redundant servants at home. She walked over and turned on the screen at the door. There were two people standing at the door holding a cane. They were obviously old. "Hello, may I ask who you are?" Hearing the voiceing out, the two of them looked at each other. The olddy''s breath was a little uneven. "I''m Li Han''s grandmother. I am the one to ask who you are." Hearing this voice, Shu Tian froze. The sharp voice from the phone callst time almost immediately appeared in his ears. That phone call really left a deep impression on her that she still remembered it after such a long time. Now they suddenly came here... Shu Tian was uncertain but she did not dare to think much at this moment. She immediately opened the door and weed the two seniors in. She was still wearing pajamas and didn''t have time to change. "I''m sorry, I don''t know that you are "You don''t have to prepare anything." The olddy stopped her with only a few words. She nced at Shu Tian from the corner of her eye and walked straight to the living room. The old man followed behind and was also displeased when catching a glimpse of her pajamas. "Why did you get up sote?" Shu Tian''s face was burning when she heard their words. She closed the door and immediately went to the kitchen to cut fruit and make tea. She called Li Han while waiting for the water to boil but This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. unfortunately, no one answered. "He hasn''t finished the meeting yet?" Shu Tian frowned and put down her phone. She was very nervous. After thinking for a while, she sent him a text message. After the water boiled, she made some ck tea and brought it out. "Here is the tea." The fragrance of the tea leaves evaporated with the heat, leaving a faint fragrance in the air. However, the two old people were not in a good mood and they didn''t have any while the teacups were ced on the table. A wisp of white mist rose from the cups, creating a little sad and pitiful atmosphere. Shu Tian looked down. It was not appropriate for her to stand aside or walk away because she knew that the two elders had questions for her. The old man finally opened his mouth after a moment of silence, "You live with Han?" Shu Tian couldn''t even lift her head to answer such a question in front of the old man. Her voice was like a mosquito sound, "Yes." The old man continued to ask, "How long have you lived together?" Shu Tian, of course, wouldn''t say the exact time. She just mumbled, "It''s been a while." There was then an indescribable silence in the living room. The morning light came in but it did not make people feel warm. On the contrary, it increased a sense of nervousness and anxiety that was exposed in her eyes which she could not hide. "We''re not here to see you today." The olddy''s voice was very steady and confident. Before Shu Tian could breathe a sigh of relief, she said again, "But since you are here, we will tell you something." Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat. She already knew that the conversation would not be pleasant then. "Sit down first." Seeing her standing all the time, the old man finally said to her. Shu Tian''s heart beat like a drum. She obediently sat straight on the sofa opposite them and did not dare to rx. "You please." The two elders looked at each other again. They probably didn''t expect her to be so obedient. They were a little surprised by Shu Tian''s attitude but then they made it clear. After all, people nowadays might show apletely different look when they were eager for money. "We''ve heard about you and Han. I won''t say anything more. I just want to ask you a question. Do you think you two are a good match?" This sentence was undoubtedly a sharp sword that shot straight into her heart, stabbing the part she didn''t want to be touched the most. Were they two a good match? She had no confidence herself, not to mention those outsiders. It was because of this seemingly inappropriate match that she had a terrible reputation in the outside world. In the eyes of outsiders, she was just a woman with a history of marriage and a lot of ignominious experiences. She was such a vixen that she could get close to Li Han. Although those ignominious experiences were all fake, no one would care. People often only saw what they wanted to see and didn''t care about the truth. Shu Tian looked down at the carpet under her feet and clenched her hands tightly, afraid that she would escape as she could not endure such pressure. After a few seconds, she whispered, "I know a lot of people think we''re not a good match but feelings are unknown things. We love each other so..." "So you want to be with Han?" After the olddy finished speaking, she smiled and continued with her old but powerful voice. "Then have you ever thought that Han might be affected by you? Those terrible voices will slowly transfer to him. He has been such an outstanding person since he was a child. How could you watch him suffer because of your bad reputation?" Every word the olddy spoke out was a knife that pierced Shu Tian''s heart. How could she not have thought of what she had said? The man was so mighty as if everything could be solved that she naturally didn''t think much about this. Yes, she didn''t dare to think about it actually. Seeing that she lowered her head and did not speak, these two seniors of the Li family finally rxed a little. If Shu Tian contradicted them at this time, the result would be worse. "Break up with Han. You''re not a good match." They finally said this. With the naked request in front of her, Shu Tian didn''t know how to resist. She hesitated for a while before she said, "Actually, Ipletely understand your feelings. I know what you''re worried about and I have thought about it. If I don''t have any real feelings for Li Han now, I will definitely agree with your request. However, I have our love deep in my heart..." "Real feelings?" The olddy interrupted her and the wrinkles at the end of her eyes slightly creased because of the strength of her eyes. "You have been married before. You should know very well how to control your feelings." Shu Tian clenched her hands again. Her fingernails were embedded into her flesh but not as painful as a thousandth of her heart. "I didn''t do anything wrong in myst marriage." "It has nothing to do with us whether you did anything wrong or not. Our Li family will never ept a divorced woman as a daughter-inw, understand?" Chapter 153 Chapter 153 As soon as Shu Tian finished speaking, her body seemed to be cut open, and a cold wind was blowing in. She wanted to cover that hole, but her whole body was as heavy as lead and she couldn''t move. Old Master Li had once told her this on the phone, but when she heard it again, her inferiorityplex and pain increased. Shu Tian lowered her head. The old couple sat on the sofa and did not speak. They wanted to wait for her to make a statement, but before Shu Tian could speak, the door of the vi was opened from the outside. Suddenly, a click broke the silence and then the code lock was opened. The heavy gold-ted relief door was pushed open, and a familiar figure appeared at the door. The man''s tall body was back to the light. The light outside the house passed through his body and outlined his general appearance, but he could not be seen clearly. Shu Tian looked up at the man walking towards her step by step. It was not until she was pulled into his arms that she came back to her senses, "Why, why are you back?" This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Li Han listened to the soft voice beside his ear and quickly scanned her face and body. When he saw that she was fine, he was relieved, "I didn''t see the message you sent me during the meeting. I just saw it and I called you, but you didn''t answer it." At that time, he was having a public meeting, whichsted for a long time. During the break, Zhang Bikun handed him his cell phone. When he turned it on and saw that Shu Tian had called him, he thought that it was rare for her to call him and he was very happy. But then he saw the message. "Your grandparents are at home." Seeing these few words, Li Han was not in the mood to have the meeting at that time. He paused the meeting, dyed it, and sped all the way to Imperial Vi. Shu Tian touched her pocket and found her phone was not there, "I left it in the kitchen. I didn''t hear it." They whispered in each other''s ears and their voices were low. In addition, his grandparents were already old and had hard of hearing, so they could not hear clearly. They only saw that Li Han and Shu Tian were very close. They were very ufortable and coughed to remind the two young people. Shu Tian looked at the man who stood up straight after he finished speaking. She was moved and sad. She was moved that he woulde back but she felt sad that she was ecstatic for such a trivial thing. "Han, are you done?" The olddy was so happy to see himing back that she stepped forward to wee him, her eyes almost fixed on him. Li Han looked at the old couple on the sofa and felt a headache suddenly, "Grandpa, grandma, why did youe all of a sudden? You didn''t tell me in advance." If he had been prepared, it wouldn''t have been so embarrassing. However, the old couple figured out what he was thinking and deliberately didn''t tell him. Recently, the news was sensational, and he had a hard mouth. How could they let him exin it? They could only rely on this sudden attack tactic. Thinking of this, the olddy''s face changed, "What? Can''t wee here without telling you in advance?" She was the elder, so Li Han couldn''t say anything, "That''s not what I meant. I''m afraid I can''t treat you and grandpa well." "Don''t worry about him. He''s strong." Old Lady Li waved her hand and called her husband, who was sitting beside her, "Your grandfather and I have nothing else to do. We just came to see you. I didn''t expect you to be away." Since Li Han was back, she wouldn''t be as stiff as before. She knew her own grandson''s temper well. He was stubborn. The more she went against him, the more rebellious he would be. She didn''t want to be snubbed. "Han, do you still have work this afternoon?" "No." "That''s good. Let your grandma make you a meal. Don''t you like carrot dumplings? Let her make them for you." After the old man finished speaking, he ordered, "You don''t have a helper at home either. Ask the driver to buy some fresh ingredients and bring them upter." How could Li Han not understand what his grandparents meant? If it was in normal times, he would do as they said. But Shu Tian was still here. Thinking of this, he politely refused, "Don''t bother. We don''t usually cook at home. Let''s go out to eatter." "The food outside is not as delicious as the food at home. Besides, your grandma and I are here. No trouble at all." After the old man finished speaking, he nced at Shu Tian, "Does Miss Shu think it''s inconvenient?" Shu Tian''s heart jolted and she quickly exined, "Absolutely no. I''ll go shopping with the driverter." Since the old man had said this, Shu Tian could not refuse or keep silent. She was really in a dilemma. Li Han frowned. Seeing that he was about to lose his temper, Shu Tian quietly pulled his sleeve and whispered, "I have nothing to do this afternoon anyway. It''s all for you." Li Han heaved a deep breath and raised his eyebrows, "Do you know how to make dumplings?" Shu Tian looked a little embarrassed, "I know... a little." When she was a child, she used to roll the dumpling wrappers a lot, so her skill was not bad. But she couldn''t make the dumplings and the fillings well. "Don''t regret itter." Li Han didn''t say anything after leaving such a sentence, leaving Shu Tian alone in a mess. The old couple insisted on making dumplings, and it was difficult to refuse. Shu Tian could not say anything, so she took her wallet and went out with the driver to buy ingredients. After she left, Li Han came downstairs and had changed into his home clothes. The old man was drinking tea and watching TV in the living room, while the olddy was busy in the kitchen. Li Han walked around and sat on the sofa opposite the old man. He nced down at the tea on the table. It was full but was cold. He looked up and met the old man''s eyes. After all, they were close rtives, and they knew each other only with a look. "Just say what you want to say. Don''t look at me like that." The old man coughed and knew everything well in his mind. Li Han didn''t say anything. He picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip of the cold tea, and slowly put it down, "What did you tell her?" Hearing this, the old man snorted coldly, "Are you here to fight for her?" "Sort of." Li Han nodded and admitted gracefully. The old man was refuted and he pulled a long face. But after all, Li Han was an adult man, so he had to suppress his anger. "Han, I told your grandma before that although our family doesn''t have high expectations for your future wife, we definitely won''t want a divorced one. Besides, her family is now in a mess. Do you think it is proper?" "I was me who caused the mess." Li Han looked rxed. It was obvious that the old master''s words did not affect him at all, "Without me, it might not have been like this." It was impossible for Shu Tian topete with the Tang family on her own, so most of this was done by him. "You!" The old man leaned on his crutch angrily, "Anyway, your grandma and I will never agree with this. Don''t think about it." Chapter 154 Chapter 154 Li Han sighed helplessly. "I know you''re conventional and can''t ept a woman who was married before as your granddaughter-inw, but Shu Tian is definitely not the kind of woman you think she is. She''s very simple and kind. She disys no misbehaviors, nor is she frivolous..." "All right, all right. You''re just love-struck and believe that she is perfect." Old Master Li stopped him with a wave of the hand. Li Han shook his head and did not continue talking. His grandparents rarely visited him, so he did not want to upset them. What''s more, a few very brief words wouldn''t be able to change their constant prejudice against Shu Tian. Half an hourter, Shu Tian came in with the ingredients. She had bought carrots, mutton, and some fresh fruits and vegetables. Li Han came up and wanted to help her, but she refused. "Don''t. Your grandparents will be unhappy when they see that." Shu Tian made her way to the kitchen and put the ingredients on the clean counter. The olddy had just kneaded the dough. She checked what Shu Tian had bought, and pointed to the refrigerator. "There''s no pepper at home. Did you buy it?" Pepper? Shu Tian didn''t remember having been asked to buy that. Seeing her confused expression, the olddy knew what her answer would be. "You didn''t buy it." "I thought you wouldn''t need it, so I didn''t..." Shu Tian corrected herself in a hurry, "I''ll go buy it now. Is there anything else you need?" "Just buy this. As for other things needed, we''ll talk about thatter." Later... Shu Tian had no choice but to turn back. She walked out of the vi, headed towards the car with the lights still on in the distancenguidly, and told the driver, "Go to the supermarket again." The driver, Liu, was puzzled. "Miss Shu, are you going to the supermarket again?" It hadn''t been ten minutes since she got out of the car. Shu Tian nodded. "Yes." "Okay." The car started. Shu Tian looked out the window, a little aggrieved. The olddy did not forget to let her buy pepper. She was doing that on purpose to secure a leading position over Shu Tian. If Li Han hadn''t rushed home just now, she would have been subjected to more scathing censure. Now that Li Han was at home, they couldn''t y hardball barefacedly. Shu Tian leaned her head against the window and felt very tired as if she was carrying a great burden. In the face of the elders'' criticism, she had no other way but to behave herself. After all, she was notorious for her past and all those rumors. It was really difficult to mend her reputation. Understandably, if she were Li Han''s grandparent, she might forbid him to be with a woman like herself too. But the more she thought about it that way, the more bushed she felt. She went to and fro just for a packet of ground pepper. When she got home, the stuffing for dumplings had been concocted. The olddy saw hering back and said, "Why did youe back sote? I''m already done. Put it aside." Shu Tian held the pepper in her hand and stood still. The olddy stopped what she was doing and turned to look at Shu Tian. "What''s wrong?" "Nothing." Shu Tian took a deep breath and put the pepper on the cab beside her. "I''ll help you roll out the wrappers of the dumplings." Not expecting Shu Tian to be so obedient, the olddy peered at her and tried to find a hint of negative emotions on her face. But apart from a little depression, the olddy could not tell anything else at all. The two of them were busy in the kitchen. Shu Tian was not very fast. Fortunately, the wrappers she rolled out looked good. The olddy had cooked for many years and could make dumplings very quickly. Shu Tian did not dare to be a drag. When they were all finished, her right arm was numb. Shu Tian rubbed her shoulders and arms. Seeing this, the olddy took the dumplings aside and said, "You''ve finished your work. Go out." "It''s okay. I''ll boil the dumplings. You''ve been busy all afternoon. Go out to rest..." Shu Tian was about to get thedle. The olddy stopped her and said more stiffly. "Miss Shu, you don''t have to be so polite. This is Han''s house. You''re the guest. You should rest." Her estranged words directly kept Shu Tian apart and showed her attitude. Shu Tian was just a "guest" to them. They did not have a close and formal rtionship. Shu Tian let out a deep breath and kept telling herself to calm down and not to worry. "You''re overthinking this. I just want to help." "No need." The olddy looked her up and down. "I know what you mean, but we are very determined. Don''t try to change our minds. Whatever you do, it''s useless." Shu Tian frowned slightly. "I don''t want to change your opinion of me. I know some things can''t be changed easily. I can understand. I''m not doing this for any other purpose. I just want to help." The olddy snorted and sneered at Shu Tian. "Everyone can say nice things. Miss Shu, if you''re really sensible, you should take the initiative to leave Han after we express our attitude. Don''t get involved with Han and hold him back." The more the olddy spoke, the more excited she became. Her tone was sharp and her attitude was very firm. She was bluntly against Shu Tian. Swallowing hard, Shu Tian cast down her eyes. There was no life at all in her voice. "I didn''t want to hold him back." "Have you ever considered what people would say about Han? Maybe as Han has said, you''re not a bad woman. But in the eyes of us elders, you have married before anyway. What will others think about that?" Shu Tian didn''t know what to say. The two of them stood still, and the atmosphere became very heavy. The olddy sighed, "Okay, you can go out." After saying that, she turned around, went to the counter, never looked at Shu Tian again. Shu Tian wiped her hands and trudged out of the kitchen. As she went upstairs, she bumped into Li Han. He wasing down from the study. The two of them looked at each other. Before she could speak, her eyes were already red-rimmed. Because of what happened in the bar before, the two of them had been in a cold war. They lived together but barely spoke to each other. They were both sulking and pretending to be indifferent. If it weren''t for the two seniors from the Li family, Li Han wouldn''t even havee back today. At this moment, looking at the sadness and forbearance in her eyes, Li Han ate his heart out. Seeing that Shu Tian was about to cry, the man threw his arms around her and hugged her tight. He petted and smoothed her hair with his big hand andforted her gently, "Don''t cry." As he said it, she wept uncontrobly. Old Master Li was still downstairs in the living room, so Shu Tian had to muffle the sound of her sobbing. She felt so wronged that she bit the front of Li Han''s clothes. The heat of her tears burned through the clothes and corroded him like strong acid. Li Han carried her into the bedroom and closed the door. The woman in his arms finally wept aloud. After days of alienation, the two bodies pressed hard against each other now. It was enough to incite their emotions, no words required. Shu Tian cried for such a long time that her eyes were puffy and she could not see clearly. Finally, she calmed down. Li Han took a step back and wiped away the tears on her face. His tone was soft as if he was coaxing a child. "Tian, it''s all my fault. Don''t cry."N?velDrama.Org holds this content. Chapter 155 Chapter 155 Shu Tian felt aggrieved and had no one to talk to. Tears kept falling down her face. Before Li Han could wipe them out, her tears gushed out again. Listening to her sobbing, he felt that his heart broke. "Did they say something to you?" She then shook her head and didn''t know how to tell him, afraid that he would quarrel with his grandparents if she spoke out. Therefore, she couldn''t say anything. However, he could also think of the reason. His grandparents came here today to make her look bad, but they didn''t expect him toe back so quickly. Fortunately, he came back. If he didn''t, how would they humiliate her? "The old people are conservative. They are used to being rigid when they are young and judge people ording to their outdated standard. You don''t have to take it to heart. When they know who you are, they won''t do this to you naymore." He then raised his hand and pinned the hair on her face behind his ear. Looking into her red eyes, he bent down to kiss her. He could taste her tears, which made him feel bitter. "I, I don''t me them for thinking so. I just feel powerless..." After days of silent treatment and suspicion with him, coupled with the old couple''s harsh words, she had endured too much and was on the verge of copse. He then hugged her tightly again and patted softly on her back, which was trembling from crying. "Don''t worry, I won''t let you face it alone. I''ll find a way to make them ept you, okay?" "It''s so difficult." Yet she closed her eyes sadly. "Why is it so difficult..." It was a piece of cake for others, and it was hard for her. In their rtionship, there were too many obstacles. Even if they overcame this one, the next one was waiting for them, as if she couldn''t see an end. "Stop crying. Your eyes will be swollen from cryingter, huh?" He helped her to the bed and sat down. And he knelt on one knee and looked at her directly. Feeling the warmth of his palm, she said, "I want to have a moment to myself." There were so many thoughts and emotions in her heart that she couldn''t digest for a moment. She just wanted to sit alone for a while. Just as he was about to speak, someone knocked on the door of the bedroom from outside. Then Old Master Li''s hoarse voice came. "Han, the TV suddenly can''t be turned on. Come down and take a look for me." Subconsciously, she raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face and quickly urged him. "Just go." Looking at the woman sitting by the bed, he felt painful. Yet the knocking on the door continued. He then put his hands on his waist, and took a long breath before turning to the door. The door was opened and he walked out. He quickly closed it again, blocking Old Master Li''s view to the room. Old Master Li was a bit surprised. Seeing that Li Han came out alone, he walked slowly down the stairs. Li Han looked at his unsteady steps and then stepped forward to assist him to the first floor. "Han, the TV..." "Enough is enough." Li Han did not even look at the TV. His brows furrowed, and it was not difficult to see his impatience and anger at the moment. Noticing something was off with the atmosphere between them, Old Lady Li walked out of the kitchen and stood between them. She looked at Li Han with disappointment. "Han, how can you talk to your grandfather like this?" This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. "I know you''re dissatisfied with Shu Tian. You think she''s not good enough for me. You''ve been making things difficult for her since the beginning. I''m not saying anything before, but it doesn''t mean that I acquiesce in your actions. I just think you won''t go too far, but today it doesn''t seem be like that." Slowly, he uttered. Just now, Shu Tian was crying hard, but she refused to say a word. He couldn''t bear it anymore. "When did we make things difficult for her? She moves into your house before you get married. Any girl with dignity wouldn''t do such a thing!" The olddy felt ashamed for Shu Tian as she spoke. Li Han pursed his lips. "She didn''t want to. I forced her to live with me." In the beginning, he had indeed coerced Shu Tian into moving into Imperial Vi, but he didn''t see this Now she became an indiscreet girl without dignity for that. Old Lady Li obviously didn''t believe it, and her tone was full of ridicule. "I don''t see that she doesn''t want to. Maybe she''s just ying hard to get!" Her words made Li Han frown, and the anger seethed throughout his body. But he could not scold his grandparents. Finally, he understood why Shu Tian said that she was helpless and difficult. When his grandmother didn''t trust him, everything he said became sophistry. "No matter what you think or say, as long as I''m here, no one can make things difficult for Shu Tian." Since it was useless to exin, he just acted tough. Old Master Li then red at him. "Fine, are you angry with me and your grandmother because of a woman now?" "You give me no choice." "Why can''t you just marry a clear and simple girl? What''s so good about that notorious woman? You..." "Grandpa!" Li Han interrupted, "You''re belittling me by belittling her." "Okay, okay, since you want to protect her... We''ll just leave." Old Master Li raised his hand and pointed at Li Han''s face. The crutch in his hand knocked on the ground twice heavily. "Let''s go now. Since you said so, as long as your grandmother and I are alive, she won''t be epted by this family. If you insist on marrying her, then I have no grandson from then on!" Old Master Li immediately turned around and walked out angrily. Old Lady Li stood there and looked at her husband and then at Li Han. She couldn''t help butin, "Look at what you''ve done! Is she really so important to you?!" In the end, she took off her apron and followed her husband out of the vi. The door mmed shut, and the sound was so loud that even the shoe cab next to door vibrated a little. Li Han took a deep breath, took out his cell phone and called the driver, Liu, to personally send them back to the Old Residence safely. Hanging up the phone, he turned around and saw Shu Tian standing next to the sofa. "They... left?" Tightening his grip on the phone, Li Han lowered his head slightly, and walked towards her quickly. He put the phone on the table and raised his hand to hug her, but she took a step back to avoid it. His hand froze in midair, and the noisy living room fell silent in an instant. She then asked in a trembling voice. "Is it because of me?" Just now, she heard a quarrel downstairs. Yet she couldn''te down and make things worse, but when she heard the door of the vi close, she couldn''t help but walk downstairs. When she came down, she saw that he was the only one left. With his back facing her, he was calling the driver to drive carefully. It was gradually dark outside. Standing in front of the window, under the bright light f the house, he looked so lonely. Chapter 156 Chapter 156 They could rarely enjoy a meal together, but Shu Tian messed up. Thinking of it, Shu Tian was upset, especially when seeing Li Han standing here alone, she really felt guilty. Shu Tian was straightforward and always showed her emotion easily. Seeing it, Li Han was heartbroken and pulled Shu Tian to his side. "Why did you walk away? They meant to trouble you. There''s no need to me yourself." He would rather shein to him after being wronged than see her take all the me on herself. Shu Tian was exhausted, with her body freezing cold. Too many things had happened on this single day and she was mixed with emotions. She had thought that she had sacrificed much after falling in love with him, but it was unexpected that Li Han would bear a lot as well. Not every man would spare no efforts to protect his woman, but Li Han did it, making her guilty and sad. Li Han grasped the woman''s cold fingers tightly, as determined as his heart. "Everything will be fine. Take it easy. Leave it to me." Shu Tian sniffed and nodded in agreement. "I know my past will be a burden to you, but Li Han, can you hold my hand? I''m really confused. If you want to let go, just tell me. I won''t pester you." Hearing it, Li Han''s heart ached as if it had been hit hard. However, he held her hand even more tightly. "As long as you will, I will never let it go." Shu Tian pressed her lips together and stopped crying after a while. Her voice trembled but she answered him firmly, "Okay." Just as she finished speaking, Li Han suddenly bent down and gave her a kiss. [...] After the two elders of the Li family left Imperial Vi, Jiang Chujing had already received the news. At first, Li Wei hadn''t nned to tell her the news but he told her because of Jiang Chujing''s aggressive questioning. Knowing that the two elders had met Shu Tian, Jiang Chujing became edgy, constantly imagining what they had said and done, and whether Shu Tian had got their recognition. What if... Jiang Chujing shook her head. No, she would never allow it to happen! Jiang Chujing had to take action. Thinking of it, Jiang Chujing went upstairs and took out the private phone locked in the drawer. Not recovering from the shock, she almost fell to the ground. Li Wei hurriedly stepped forward to help her, touching the back of her hand. It was the first time for Li Wei to get so close to her, his heart pounding. "Chujing, are you okay?" Since thest time he had expressed his love, Li Wei had not called her Miss Jiang in private but called her Chujing. Disgusted, Jiang Chujing quickly steadied her feet and withdrew her palm. "I''m fine." After that, Chujing looked at Li Wei pleadingly, in a soft voice. "Help me get the phone on the bedside table in my bedroom." Thinking that Chujing was so furious that she wanted to contact Shu Tian, Li Wei looked embarrassed. "Chujing, you know Mr. Li is my boss. I can''t give you any information. If you contact Miss Shu now, I''m afraid I''ll be exposed and won''t be able to be with you..." "Are you scared?" Jiang Chujing interrupted him, examining his evasive eyes. With contempt, she exined, "Don''t worry. I''m not looking for Shu Tian. I''ll contact someone else. You don''t have to worry about exposing yourself." Someone else? Li Wei thought of Jiang Mengyao. Could it be that they had been in contact? Seeing that he was suspicious, Jiang Chujing looked down and rolled her eyes, thinking of something. Suddenly, her knees buckled and she identally fell into Li Wei''s arms. "Oh..." "What''s wrong? Are you okay?" Li Wei was distracted and looked nervously at the woman in his arms. Li Wei''s touch made Jiang Chujing feel sick, but she did not immediately get rid of his arms. Instead, she kept leaning against the man''s strong body. "I''m a little dizzy. Why not pick me up?" Worried about her, Li Wei did not hesitate, bent down, and picked up the woman in his arms. As he walked, their body inevitably rub against each other, making his heart slightly melt. Although Jiang Chujing was weak and pale, she was still a beauty. Although she was skinny, her skin was surprisingly fair. Li Wei remembered the time she had appeared in front of him in pajamas by chance. She was charming enough to attract Li Wei. Thinking of it, Li Wei held her legs more tightly, with his thumb touching her heels. Jiang Chujing''s face whitened, but she had to endure it. When they finally entered the bedroom, Li Wei put her down on the bed. Jiang Chujing pulled the drawer out and took out her phone. Before dialing, she eyed the man nearby. "Please go out first." "Can you do it alone?" ''Then could you do anything for me?'' Jiang Chujing sneered in her heart. How could Li Wei be so confident and ignorant? He was like a toad trying to eat swan meat. But for the fact that she needed his help, Jiang Chujing wouldn''t even nce at him. "Chujing?" Seeing that she was silent, Li Wei called out to her worriedly. Jiang Chujing came back to her senses and answered with a weak smile. "I''m fine. Maybe I haven''t rested well recently. Don''t worry. I''ll call you if anything happens." This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. "Okay, I''ll stay outside. Call me anytime." "Well, please go out." Li Wei walked out of the bedroom slowly. It was not until the door closed that Jiang Chujing took off all her disguise and dialed Jiang Mengyao''s phone number with a cold face. The phone was answered after a while. Jiang Mengyao said with excitement. "Hello? You finally contacted me..." "Cut the crap. Now is the opportunity. Do you want to seize it?" Jiang Chujing was not in the mood to listen to the nonsense and got to the point. Looking around at the heatable adobe sleeping tform and the dpidated rural yard, Jiang Mengyao said fiercely and resentfully, "I have nothing now. I have to be careful not to be recognized and taken away by the police when I go out. As long as there is a chance, I will spare no effort to grasp it without your reminder." Then, Jiang Mengyao paused, took out a box of cheap cigarettes from the pocket of her white pants, took a deep breath, and thenughed coldly. "Tell me, what do you need me to do?" Jiang Chujing took a deep breath and clenched the quilt tightly, twisting the quilt. She gritted her teeth and said, "Li Han''s grandparents went to Imperial Vi today. Shu Tian has already met them, so we have to take action. I have also stayed in this lousy ce for a long time. It''s time to meet her!" Chapter 157 Chapter 157 "Then what do I need to do?" Jiang Mengyao could hear the hatred in Jiang Chujing''s tone through the phone. She thought she was already vicious enough, but she didn''t expect that Jiang Chujing was even worse. Especially after hearing about her n, Jiang Mengyao grew excited. Thinking of what might happen to Shu Tian, she sensed a burst offort. "Don''t worry. I promise toplete the task you gave me, as long as you can do what you promised." Jiang Chujing smiled with satisfaction. "You can check your ount. I''ve just paid a deposit. As long as you do what you have to do, I promise to send you abroad safely." "Okay, it''s a deal." After Jiang Mengyao finished speaking, she sensed that the phone was about to hang up, so she said hurriedly, "But I''m curious how you can do such a thing when you''re not supposed to show up." "It''s none of your business." After that, Jiang Chujing hung up the phone rudely. And then Jiang Mengyao immediately essed the inquiry system. She was wanted by the police, and all her bank cards and ounts that could be traded were suspended, but the money was transferred to an online virtual ount. Seeing the amount shown in the system, she was finally relieved. Jiang Chujing did not lie to her and really gave her the agreed sum of money. If it was done, Jiang Mengyao might be able to get out of these troubles as soon as possible. Thinking of this, she raised her head and looked around at the crude environment. She then secretly clenched her fists. Screwed Li Han or marrying into a rich family! The only thing she wanted now was to go abroad with the money safely. Being wanted by the police, she had been lived a frightened life. Fortunately, now that there was finally a chance to realize her wishes, she would not let it slide! [...] After Li Han''s parents left, although Shu Tian took a big blow, fortunately, she and Li Han finally made up with each other. Even though they did not continue to avoid dealing with each other, he still came backte from time to time and even sometimes did note back until early in the morning. She felt empty and uneasy, but when she thought of what he had said before, she chose to believe him. One day after work, she received a call from Fu Qingtong. They were nning to have dinner at a western restaurant next to the HY Law Office. She then called Li Han and told him where she was, and thetter said he would pick her up after dinner. When she arrived at the restaurant, she saw Fu Qingtong sitting in the seat and looking out the window at the night scene. She then walked over lightly and patted Fu Qingtong on the shoulder, saying, "What Property ? N?velDrama.Org. are you thinking?" She had thought that Fu Qingtong would jump up in a startle and scold her, but unexpectedly, she met a pair of red and swollen eyes. Shocked, she asked, "What''s wrong?" Yet Fu Qingtong pursed her lips and chuckled. "Nothing. Have a seat." The waiter pulled out a chair for her. Shu Tian then sat down and looked straight at the woman opposite her. Being ufortable with her gaze, Fu Qingtong picked up the cup beside the table and took a sip of water. "Don''t look at me like that, okay? I''ve already ordered the meal. You look like you''re going to eat me up..." With her eyes glued at Fu Qingtong''s face, Shu Tian looked at her carefully and found that not only was her friend''s eyes swollen, but so was her face. It looked like she had cried for a long time. With a jolt in the heart, Shu Tian asked again, "What''s wrong?" Fu Qingtong then put down the cup in her hand and looked down at the table, just to hide the sadness and sadness in her eyes. As she raised her head again, she put on her usual smile. "I''ve made a decision these two days." "What decision?" "Didn''t I always say that I wanted to study abroad? Now I have a chance to do so. My father''spany has a ce for further education. I volunteered." While speaking, Fu Qingtong blinked her eyes countless times, as if it was the only way to ease the panic in her heart. Hearing this, Shu Tian frowned. "I thought you don''t want to go to your family''spany? Why did you suddenly change your mind?" "Well, it''s better not waste such a good opportunity. Instead of giving it to the others, I might as well take it myself." Fu Qingtong added water for herself as she spoke. When the waiter saw it and was about to help, yet she signalled with hand that she was fine. Everything seemed normal, but her trembling hands revealed the nervousness in her heart. Shu Tian grabbed the ss in her hand and said in a serious voice, "Did you go abroad because of Ji Chuanyi?" Ji Chuanyi. After hearing that, Fu Qingtong bit her lip. Ever since that night, his name was deeply etched in her brain, and she could not forget it. She did not speak and sat quietly. For the first time in her life, her head drooped so low. Seeing her sad face, Shu Tian felt a pang of bitterness. "Tong, you..." "Don''t!" Fu Qingtong interrupted her anxiously, took a deep breath, and slowly said, "Don''tfort me. I''m fine, really." Watching that her friend tried her best to hold back the grievance, Shu Tian felt sorry for her. And she med herself. If they hadn''t been drunk that night, if she had stopped her friend, perhaps things wouldn''t be so bad. Yet Ji Chuanyi was right. Since they were adults, having sex meant nothing. But Fu Qingtong was not as open-minded and indifferent as she appeared. Deep down, she had always been a conservative girl who kept her integrity. But that night, it was just an ident. During the dinner, both of them were depressed. And Fu Qingtong pretended to be rxed, which made Shu Tian unable to bear to watch it anymore. Before they paid the bill and left, Shu Tian held her hand. "Tong, no matter what happens, as long as you need me, I will be by your side." Soon, Fu Qingtong''s eyes turned red again and she then smiled. "I know. It''s so cold. Just go in. I''m leaving." After saying that, she did not dare to stay for a moment. She immediately turned around. With her back to Shu Tian, her face was instantly covered with tears. Shu Tian watched her get into the car and leave. She stood at the entrance of the hotel and sighed. After taking out her phone and looking at the time, she found that it was already the appointed time with Li Han, but he hadn''t arrived yet. Just as she was thinking about whether to call to urge him, he called her first. Thinking he was here, she picked it up as she walked out. "Where are you?" "I''m sorry, Tian. I can''t pick you up. Just wait a minute, I''ll ask the driver to pick you up." His slightly impatient voice came from the phone. Astonished, she stopped in her tracks. Looking around at the cold streets and the snow on the branches that had not melted, she shivered coldly and thought for a few seconds. She then smiled bitterly, swallowing all the me andints back and pretending to be considerate. "It''s okay. If you have something urgent to do, just go back to your work. Tong hasn''t left yet. I''ll just ask her to give me a ride home. There''s no need for the driver toe over." "You go back yourself?" "Yes." She couldn''t wait to hang up the phone. "Tong needs me now. I''ll talk to you when I get home After she hurriedly hung up the phone, the smile on her face seemed to be frozen by the cold wind. It took her a long time toe back to her sense. She held the phone in both hands and pressed it against her chest. But when she turned around and walked back, she saw a familiar figure. The woman happened to be standing at the entrance of the hotel. She was dressed in all ck, which was out of ce in the festive decorations near the new year. It was Jiang Mengyao. With a cold face, Shu Tian then turned her gaze away quickly. She did not want to meet Jiang Mengyao''s eyes. Yet just as she turned around and returned to the hotel, her arm was grabbed. Jiang Mengyao said, "Are you in such a hurry to leave? As old friends, we haven''t seen each other for so long. Shouldn''t we catch up a little?" Chapter 158 Chapter 158 Shu Tian withdrew her hand with a little strength. "I have nothing to say with you." "Are you sure?" Jiang Mengyao wore a ck felt hat, covering half of her face. Fortunately, it was in winter, so it was not obvious. "Maybe you can learn a lot from me." "Humph." Shu Tian chuckled and eyed her up and down. "Are you sure you''re in the mood to tell me this now? Have you forgotten that you''re a wanted criminal?" Jiang Mengyao clenched her hand under her long sleeve and tried to look calm. "Since I cane here, I''m not afraid that you''ll call the police." Shu Tian didn''t know if she was really prepared or bluffing on purpose, but it didn''t matter. She would know where she came from as long as she checked the security video. Shu Tian didn''t want to stay with her for too long, so she prepared to bypass her and leave, but Jiang Mengyao suddenly stepped forward to block her way and peered at her provocatively. "Did Li Han call just now to say he had no time toe to see you?" Jiang Mengyao''s guess seeded in stopping Shu Tian. She frowned slightly and looked at Jiang Mengyao in confusion. How did she know? Gazing at the look on Shu Tian''s face, Jiang Mengyao knew she got it. She instantly became and naive, he already has other women outside." Shu Tian didn''t care at all. "If that''s why you came here today, I''m afraid I''ll disappoint you." "Shu Tian, I don''t know how to judge you. Every time you only realize the truth when ites. Should I say you¡¯re kind or stupid?" Jiang Mengyao even strode up to Shu Tian with no trace of shame. "To be honest, I''ve kept tracking where Li Han is recently and found a lot of secrets. Don''t you really want to know at all?" As a fellow woman, Jiang Mengyao knew very well what could arouse Shu Tian''s curiosity, especially Li Han behaved unusuallytely, so she used this to hurt her. Shu Tian''s hands by her side were clenched and unclenched spasmodically. She''d be lying if she said she didn''t wonder, but in this way, she would rather know nothing. Jiang Mengyao was waiting for Shu Tian to ask her with confidence, but half a minuteter, not only did Shu Tian not ask her but also she turned to leave! Jiang Mengyao widened her eyes and stared at the slender figure in disbelief. The weak shoulders seemed to have tens of millions of strength, and her tiny body contained countless determination and firmness. Jiang Mengyao stamped her foot in annoyance. She knew this trip couldn¡¯t be in vain. Even if it failed to achieve the desired results, she hurried to catch up with her and eximed, "It¡¯s building No.5 of the North Vis! If you don''t want to be a fool for the second time, go and see. Li Han must be there!" She wanted to say something more, but Shu Tian was long gone. At the entrance of the hotel, a cold wind blew. Her voice was so loud that people around her turned their eyes at her. Jiang Mengyao bit her lips unwillingly, pulled down the brim of her hat, and left in a hurry. [...] Shu Tian stopped at the corner. No one followed behind her. She heaved a sigh of relief, and then breathed erratically. Li Han was in the North Vis. Property ? N?velDrama.Org. The words seemed to be printed on her mind and reverberated in her ear. She knew this ce. It should be said that everyone in J City knew it because It was a luxurious good ce. From the time it started construction to the time it was bought, many people¡¯s eyes were on it. Although the vi was built in the suburbs, it was more expensive than those in the city center where every inch ofnd was worth an inch of gold. As a result, it was the residence of the rich. Li Han could totally afford a Domus in it. She had no idea the purpose of why Jiang Mengyao told her, but the only thing she knew for sure was that she was up to no good. She must have a hidden motive for luring her into the vi, and as long as she went, she would fall into that trap willingly. Shu Tian kept persuading herself to be calm and not be impulsive, but thinking of Li Han''s unusual behavior recently, she took out her phone and called him. She heard the busy signal for a long time. Just as Shu Tian thought that no one would answer and was about to hang up, his deep voice suddenly came out. "Hello?" Shu Tian felt her heart beating rather fast and had her heart in her mouth. "You..." With only one word, her voice shook violently. Shu Tian took the phone away and tried to make it sound normal before she said, "When are you going home?" "It''s going to bete. Don''t wait for me." He answered quickly and his voice gave nothing away. "Are you socializing?" "Yes." Perhaps she was suspicious, she found something unusual very soon. His surrounding environment was too quiet as if he was in the room. Would it be so quiet during social engagements? Shu Tian bit her lips and kept quiet for a long time. Li Han waited for a while and called her softly, "Shu Tian?" "I''m listening." Shu Tian came back to her sense. Her eyes misted after she blinked. "It''s okay. I''ll go home first." Li Han spoke briefly, but Shu Tian did not hear the words. After hanging up the phone absent-mindedly, the pounding of her heart seemed to be amplified. It vibrated in her chest and made her light-headed. Before the sense right back into her, she had strode up to the street and stopped a taxi. She gave the address in an unsteady voice, "Sir, please go to the North Vis!" "The North Vis? It''s a long way from here to there and the taxi wasn¡¯t allowed to get into it. Miss, are you sure..." "Sure!" Shu Tian interrupted the driver. "Let''s go." After the evening rush hour, there were not many cars on the street, so the taxi driver drove fast all the way. Her palms broke into a sweat and she was too nervous to feel weak. She had never thought of trailing the man, but recently everything was abnormal. He kept ignoring her doubts and puzzlement. Today, when Jiang Mengyao stopped her, her words made her trust copse. How did she know about Li Han''s recent abnormality? It was such a terrible feeling that everyone knew what he was doing, and all of this was only hidden to her. As a result, she did this in a fit of passion. Shu Tian reached up and bit her finger. It''ll be okay as long as Li Han wasn''t there. If so, she trusted him and never asked him what he had done. It took the driver almost an hour to arrive at the gate of the vi campus at high speed. The gate was imposing and twenty meters long. There were strict security guards on duty in the police box. The taxi pulled off the road. Shu Tian paid and got out of the taxi. In the bitter wind, Shu Tian was anxious about having no chance to sneak in. She didn''t know if God helped her, there was a small gap in the corner of the vi campus. There were cables on it. Not far away, the worker in a hard hat with shlights on it was busy. Shu Tian crept onward. Fortunately, she was rtively thin and could pass through the gap. It was dark, and the workers next to her didn¡¯t notice her. Each vi was away from the other. Therefore, Shu Tian walked for nearly half an hour to find what Jiang Mengyao called ¡°building No.5¡±. The vi was divided into the main building and the annex. The main building was a three-story house and brightly lit at this time. Shu Tian hid on one side of the wall, put her head out, and looked around. She was only wearing a woolen coat. It was winter, and the temperature at night was below zero. The wind blew for a while, carrying a crisp chilliness. Her hands were frozen stiff even if they were in her pockets. After standing for a long time, there was no movement in the vi. Just as she was about to give up, the door of the vi was suddenly opened. She followed the sound, a tall and straight figure appeared. The man was in the shadows so Shu Tian couldn''t see his face clearly from a distance, but the way he walked and the familiar figure had already made Shu Tian''s heart in her mouth. Her eyes were brimming with tears in a second and ran down her face as she saw the woman chasing after him. "Han!" Jiang Chujing persuaded him out of the room, wearing just light pajamas. The cold wind blew her short hair back and exposed her delicate and pale face. Chapter 159 Chapter 159 Shu Tian quickly raised her hand to cover her mouth, afraid that she would cry out. It seemed that her strength was drained away in an instant so she had to lean against the wall to barely stand firm. How could it be... Hearing the sound, Li Han stopped and turned around to look at Jiang Chujing, who was walking over. His brows furrowed. "It''s so cold. Why are youing out?" "Han, can you stay with me today?" As she spoke, Jiang Chujing''s eyes shed. She had already found Shu Tian hiding in the distance. Jiang Mengyao had just informed her in advance so that she was not surprised to see Shu Tian here. Li Han was standing back to Shu Tian and did not notice anything unusual. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Jiang Chujing''s body tilt. He reached out to hold her and was a little flustered. "What''s wrong?" "It''s okay. I''ve been feeling dizzy asionally recently. It''s okay." Jiang Chujing said that she was fine, Property ? N?velDrama.Org. but she got closer to Li Han. "It''s sote. Can you stay here today?" Jiang Chujing''s voice was so low that Shu Tian could hardly hear what she was saying, but from Shu Tian''s point of view, their bodies ovepped as if they were hugging each other. Tears welled up, blurring her vision. When Shu Tian saw Li Haning out of the vi and Jiang Chujing calling him ''Han'' affectionately, she wanted to escape from there. However, when she saw them hugging each other, her feet seemed to have taken root and she could not move at all. Although he pushed Jiang Chujing away and turned around to leave, it was far from enough to restore Shu Tian''s hurt heart. Shu Tian watched him get into the car. The car started and the lights lit up. He lowered the window and waved to Jiang Chujing patiently. Shu Tian closed her eyes and blinked away all her tears. Then she supported herself against the wall and walked to the door of the vi. A dazzling headlight shone, but Shu Tian walked straight to the middle of the door as if she hadn''t noticed it. With a creak, the tires rubbed against the ground, leaving a light ck mark, as if it was still burning in the cold night. Li Han stopped the car and was about to see who it was. The moment he looked up, Shu Tian''s pale and tear-stained face rushed into his eyes. He was so shocked that he even forgot to get out of the car and his eyes trembled slightly. Shu Tian looked at the man in the car with tears streaming down her face. What else could she say? The man who had been calm all the time was looking at her in panic. His expression had already shown everything. Jiang Chujing trotted over in a hurry and figured out what had happened. She faked looking at Shu Tian anxiously as if she was pitying her for standing here all alone. Shu Tian shook her head violently and took a few steps back out of control. The man who said he wanted her to believe him and he would never do anything wrong to her actually ran out of another woman''s house at this moment. What about social intercourses? Shu Tianughed and cried. It turned out that he had lied to her. All her blood seemed to have congealed, and her body was cold and numb. It took a lot of strength for her to take a step. If she stayed here any longer, she would be out of breath. Shu Tian turned around and staggered forward, looking heart-wrenching. Li Han unfastened his seat belt, opened the door, and came out of the car. He chased after her immediately and grabbed her wrist. "Shu Tian, listen to me..." "Let me go! Let me go!" Shu Tian shouted out of control. Her tears streamed from her face and she looked messy. The wind ruffled her hair, making her look like a crazy woman who had lost her mind. Li Han grabbed her wrists and tried to pull her into his arms, but she was so determined to stay away from him that he couldn''t control her for a moment. "Stay away from me! Don''t touch me!" Li Han''s heart was deeply hurt by her roar. Looking at her tear-stained face, he felt no better than her. "It''s not like that, there''s nothing between us..." "Why are you still lying to me?!" Shu Tian stared at him with red eyes, as if she was about to see through him." How long has it been? Has it started with your frequent social intercourses, or earlier? Li Han, am I that gullible to you? Do you think that I will always trust you unconditionally? That''s right, you did it. You did it to make me so pitiful!" "Shu Tian!" Li Han interrupted her and his eyes also turned red. He ignored Jiang Chujing behind him but showed Shu Tian all his panic and care. "Don''t say something like that!" Shu Tian seemed to have heard a joke. Her voice suddenly became weak and she looked at him sarcastically. "You didn''t allow me to say so, but you did so yourself." "I didn''t!" Looking at Shu Tian, who was crumbling, Li Han clearly heard the sound of his heart breaking. He exerted a lot of strength to hold her in his arms. He could not let her go. He was afraid that once he let her go, he would never have the chance to hold her again. "There''s nothing between us. If you don''t believe me, I can ask her to exin to you. She is like a sister to me." At the mention of "sister," Shu Tian remembered that when she had identallye into his office, there was a photo of them on his desk. At that time, he also said that she was his sister. Sister? Shu Tian looked at Jiang Chujing behind him, who looked very sick with thin cheeks and prominent cheekbones, but Shu Tian could tell that she was a beauty. Shu Tian didn''t like her eyes, which were full of pity and sympathy, as if she thought that Shu Tian was the loser. The bitterness was about to drown her alive. What could be more heartbreaking than the current situation? Shu Tian breathed, trembling. She forced herself to calm down. At least, she wanted to look calm. Then she stopped resisting and said calmly, "Li Han, let me go." Li Han''s heart trembled when he heard her calling his name without any emotion. He did not dare to force her anymore. After he let go of her, Shu Tian walked slowly towards Jiang Chujing. It was only a short distance, but she used all her strength to watch Jiang Chujing''s face getting closer and clearer. At the same time, Shu Tian became even more worried. Finally, standing in front of her, Shu Tian looked at her face. Shu Tian tried many times before speaking. "What''s your rtionship with Li Han?" Her trust in him had been drained when she saw Jiang Chujing today. Now, she did not dare to believe a single word of Li Han. Jiang Chujing did not expect her to ask so and in such a direct way. Jiang Chujing was obviously flustered. When she came back to her senses, she subconsciously nced at Li Han. Chapter 160 Chapter 160 Ignoring her gaze, Li Han replied coldly, "Tell her the truth." In an instant, Jiang Chujing became the center of this affair unexpectedly. She had an urge to tell Shu Tian all about the past between Li Han and herself, about how they had known each other since childhood and established a strong bond with each other ever since. How she wished to tell Shu Tian that no one could break them up! However, the nervous look on Li Han''s face kept reminding her that she would lose him forever if she said anything she shouldn''t have. Taking a deep breath, Jiang Chujing turned back to Shu Tian. After a few seconds of silence, she finally spoke to her in a gentle voice. "I''ve always considered Li Han as my brother, even though we''re not actually rted. There''s nothing else between us. Please don''t be oversensitive." She sounded considerate, but Shu Tian was still ufortable with something in her words. Oversensitive? ording to the scene Shu Tian had just seen, she had every right to be suspect that there was something going on between Li Han and this woman! "Brother that''s not rted?" Shu Tian sneered. "How interesting is that!" Li Hanpressed his lips together. "Her parents are my benefactors." Shu Tian turned to him, querying him with her eyes that were red and swollen from crying. "Then why do you lie to me?" Although nothing happened between him and Jiang Chujing, Li Han still felt guilty when he met Shu Tian''s eyes. "Chujing is still recuperating. I was nning to tell you about her when she recovered." "When will that be?" Shu Tian found breathing extremely difficult at this time. Li Han''s words suffocated her like tons of water. "When were you going to tell me the truth if I didn''te here and discover it myself? Is it fun to treat me like an idiot? Do you ever feel guilty for lying to me?" She added before Li Han could say anything. "Li Han, did I ever know the real you?" The Li Han she saw today was nothing like the man she had used to know. In Shu Tian''s opinion, Li Han disdained to lie and would never promise anyone anything he couldn''t do. She believed that every word of him counted. However, the man she had trusted so much had made her aplete joke today. She recalled the days when he left herte at night or just spent the whole night elsewhere. What was he thinking when he lied and mixed with two women? Shu Tian trembled in fear. Now that her trust in him had copsed, she felt so strange about the man who was standing in front of her right now. Whoever he was, he wasn''t the one she had loved. The despair in her eyes made Li Han worry that he was going to lose her. "Tian, I came here only because I was worried about her health. There''s nothing else between her and me. I..." "What else do you hope that will happen? Aren''t the lies you''ve told me not enough for you?" Li Han couldn''t answer her questions. Everything he had feared to happen still happened. No matter what was the reason, he failed her trust by lying to her. "I''m sorry, Tian. I''m sorry..." He apologized humbly. This was the first time Jiang Chujing had seen Li Han being so humble to a woman. In her opinion, he had always been a proud and cold man who was crowded and ttered by countless people. He had never lowered his head to anyone but was willing to be as humble as dust for Shu Tian. Jiang Chujing''s heart hurt so much as if someone had stabbed a knife in it. Staring at the man she had loved and cherished begging for Shu Tian''s forgiveness like that, Jiang Chujing could hardly stand. She red at Shu Tian. ording to Li Han''s attitude, she was afraid to be alienated by him because of Shu Tian. Jiang Chujing felt a chill down her spine at the thought of leaving Li Han forever. Seeing the two of them were deadlocked, she walked over and cast down her eyes to hide the hatred. "Miss Shu, I''m sorry if I caused you to misunderstand the rtionship between Li Han and me. My parents once helped him and also died because of him. After that, I treated Li Han as my family. I''m sorry that I have to rely on him to cure the strange disease I''m suffering. Have pity on me. I''d really appreciate it if you can understand." She yed the family card well by mentioning her parents when exining her rtionship with Li Han. Shu Tian had no choice but to ept the fact that this woman wouldn''t disappear from Li Han''s life as Shu Tian wished. Shu Tian was upset when she thought of this. Why did she have to make a choice now? "Tian..." Li Han was about to say something, but Shu Tian raised her hand and interrupted him. "Don''t talk to me. I want some time alone." She was exhausted after so many things that happened tonight. Her head ached, filled with stuff that needed her to sort out. Li Han grabbed her wrist more tightly when he felt that she was trying to wrench herself free. "I''ll drive you home." "Leave me alone." "Get in the car." Li Han repeated firmly. For her safety, he wouldn''t allow her to go home alone in such a terrible condition. What''s more, he was so afraid to never see her again if she left like this. Knowing that Li Han wouldn''t stay, Jiang Chujing opened the door for Shu Tian without showing any reluctance. "Be careful on the road." Shu Tian ignored her while Li Han nodded at Jiang Chujing gently. Then the two of them left by car. Standing at the entrance to this empty vi, Jiang Chujing watched the car light disappear gradually in the dark. Jealousy registered on her face, recing the softness she had faked. Li Han loved that woman more than Jiang Chujing had imagined. Jiang Chujing swore to herself that she wouldn''t allow anyone to steal the love that once belonged to her and would definitely win Li Han''s heart back! [...] The car remained in silence on their way back. Shadows were cast by the streetlights on their faces, as dark as their currently gloomy moods. Shu Tian looked exhausted with her eyes closed. Li Han knew she was refusing him in silence. She didn''t want to talk to or even see him. Li Han gritted his teeth with both hands on the steering wheel. There seemed to be a thread between them that would break easily when pulled by either of them. It was almost dawn when they arrived at the Imperial Vi. Just as Li Han parked the car in the garage, Shu Tian was reaching out to open the door. Li Han locked the door before she could leave, causing the atmosphere to be tense immediately. N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. "Let me go." Half a minuteter, Shu Tian spoke first. The Adam''s Apple of Li Han moved as he turned to Shu Tian with difficulty. He tasted something bitter when he tried to call her name. It took all his strength to finally speak to her. "Tian..." Shu Tian''s tears, which she had just held back, filled her eyes again because of this word. Without looking at him, she said in a trembling voice. "Li Han, don''t push me. Leave me alone now, or I may lose control of myself." She eagerly needed a space to think through all of this, but with him around, she could never calm down. Li Han wanted so much to hold her in his arms and exin everything to her. However, her pale face prevented him from saying anything. He could feel the pain she was suffering now. His heart hurt as if someone had torn it apart. He leaned against the chair, looking ahead. Then he closed his eyes, raised his chin up a little bit, and then unlocked the door. She told him not to push her. Okay, he wouldn''t. Shu Tianpressed her lips together, paused for a second, and then left the car without looking back. The light in the car went out again, leaving Li Han alone in the dark. Chapter 161 Chapter 161 Shu Tian walked into the vi deadpan. Instead of going back to the bedroom, she went into the guest room by the side. After locking the door, she slid down on the floor before she could even reach the bed. She didn''t turn on the lights, and the thick curtains blocked out all the illumination. She hugged her knees with both hands and circled herself in a small space. The temperature in the vi was warm, but Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. she felt cold and stiff. She felt betrayed by the person she trusted the most. She had already experienced it once in her life, which almost cost half her life. It was Li Han who had saved her from the abyss, but now, this man had also lied to her. Sister? It was not that Shu Tian could not understand the nostalgia and tender feelings in Jiang Chujing''s eyes. She could tell that this woman had reservations about Li Han, and women always knew the best when it came to the same sex. What about Li Han? She believed that he had not yet done anything to cheat her, but was it right to deceive her? Shu Tian felt like an outsider. If he had told her about Jiang Chujing''s existence, he might not have made her so sad. The helplessness and sadness emanating from within her bones made her at a loss of how to face it. His words made her believe him so foolishly for so long. Seeing that she believed him like a fool every day, would he feel a little guilty or sad? Shu Tian did not dare to think. She was afraid that everything she saw was nothing but an illusion, afraid that the man she fell in love with would be a stranger. He had squandered her trust, so at this moment even his exnation seemed so pale and invalid that she could not dare to believe him again. Shu Tian had no idea how long she had cried on the floor. All she knew was that the man in the car had left again as she heard the sound of the engine starting from the front yard of the vi and the car came back. Shu Tian hugged her arms even harder as if by doing so she would be able to build a defense wall for herself. Her eyes were closed as tears trickled down. Shu Tian''s sobbing gradually turned into wailing. Where did he go? To thepany, to another abode, or back to the North Vis? No one could answer, and no one knew about that. The flustering and anxious feeling once again overwhelmed her. [...] Before Li Han drove away from the Imperial Vi, he had already asked someone to keep an eye on the vi. If Shu Tian left or anything happened, he would be informed immediately. She said she wanted to calm down in a quiet ce, but as long as he was at home, he couldn''t help but want to find her, so he could only control himself by leaving. Time slowly ticked away to the early morning. It was clearly the middle of the nightlife, but he was at a loss where to go. Usually, he was busy with work, and he was not keen on having fun. After mulling over it for some time, he could juste up with Pei Yu as the only one to turn to. He dialed Pei Yu''s number grumpily, and it was quickly connected. With the loud music, he heard, "Mr. Li Han? It''s rare that you would call me at this time..." His voice was a little erratic, and it was obvious that he had drunk a lot. Li Han was not in the mood to banter. "Where are you now?" "Where else can I be? It must be Red Club. Why are you looking for me?" It seemed that Pei Yu turned off the music because of the noise around him, and a coquettishint from a girl beside came, "Yu, why did you turn off the music?" Pei Yu coaxed her perfunctorily. "Later. Wait a minute." Li Han turned the car around and drove in the direction of Red Club. "I''ll go look for you." "You''reing!" Pei Yu raised his voice two degrees in surprise. "Now?" "Yes." "No problem!" The excitement in Pei Yu''s voice was so obvious. "I''ll ask the manager to bring the best wer. Juste. I''ll wait for you in the private room, Mr. Li Han!" Li Han answered briefly and hung up the phone. He stepped on the gas pedal under his feet again and again, eager to dilute the annoyance in his heart with alcohol. Forty minutester, the car stopped at the entrance of Red Club. The parking boy recognized his license te and respectfully took the key and drove away. The club manager came down to greet him personally. When Li Han walked into the private room, Pei Yu was sitting alone on the sofa, cross-legged and smoking a cigar. Seeing hime in, Pei Yu quickly got up and greeted him, "Mr. Li Han." Li Han didn''t look very pleased. He went straight to the side and sat down, took the bottle of wine worthy of several hundred thousand from the table, and poured it into the ss. The fiery liquid slit his throat and flowed down his esophagus into the stomach, burning his whole body. His numb heart finally had some feelings. Li Han continued to pour the second ss but was stopped by Pei Yu. "What''s wrong?" Seeing Li Han''s abnormality, Pei Yu did not quip and asked seriously. Li Han snorted and gritted his teeth twice, his cheeks bulging. "Vexed." Vexed? Pei Yu brought his ss away and pondered to himself about what would make Li Han vexed and "Because of Shu Tian?" He habitually uttered the name, only to find it improper when he spoke. He squinted at Li Han from the corner of his eye and was relieved when he saw that Li Han did not react much. "She... went to see Chujing today." Li Han spoke of what had happened not long ago, his eyes an obsidian abyss. Pei Yu''s narrow eyes widened unconsciously. "Did she know?" "Yes." Li Han rested his hands on his knees and buried half his face in his palm. "She knows about Chujing but doesn''t know about our rtionship." Only then did Pei Yu understand why Li Han came to him for a drink in the middle of the night. If it happened to him, he might be even more troubled and didn''t know how to deal with it. "Did you exin it to her?" Li Han let out a deep breath, uttering his words bitterly and helplessly. "She doesn''t believe it." And now, he had no reasons to ask her to believe him. Pei Yu didn''t know how tofort him. He looked at the ss in his hand and gritted his teeth. "Mr. Li Han, vent out all your vexation. I''ll sacrifice my life to apany you tonight!" Li Han smiled, but there was not much warmth in his smirk. "Okay." The two of them kept poring wind for each other and toasted. Before long, most of the wine on the table was consumed. Although Pei Yu was a good drinker, it was the first time he had drunk so much at such a fast speed. In the end, he was almost unconscious. There was a bathroom in the private room, but he still pushed the door open to find the bathroom outside, and he almost tripped himself over after staggering a few steps. The club manager behind him was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to hold him. "Mr. Pei, Mr. Pei!" Pei Yu vaguely heard someone calling out to him as he almost lost his bnce and words. "What, what''s wrong?" "You''re drunk. Let me help you go upstairs to rest." The club manager choked at the strong smell of alcohol on his body. If Pei Yu weren''t his immediate superior, the manager would have considered him a drunkard on the street. Chapter 162 Chapter 162 Pei Yu was reluctant to admit it, "Who, who drank too much? I... I can drink more..." He kept talking endlessly. Not only the manager but he himself probably did not know what he was saying. The manager nced at the waiter who was peeking at them not far away and thought that he couldn''t let Pei Yu continue to embarrass them, so he helped him into the elevator. Pei Yu was a tall man who was over 1.8 meters tall and was very strong but the manager was only a little over 1.7 meters. He staggered all the way to help Pei Yu into the bedroom and finallyy down. Before the manager could get his breath back, the man on the bed suddenly threw up. It was the first time the club manager had seen Pei Yu like this after having worked with him for so long. He quickly picked up the internal phone of the room and called the cleaning staff. When the room was cleaned up, it was half an hourter. After the manager closed the door, he went back to the private room. Li Han was sitting alone on the sofa and drinking. He looked well, at least much better than Pei Yu just now. "Mr. Li, Mr. Pei is drunk. I helped him upstairs to rest. Do you want to have a rest too?" In the private room, only the wallmp was on, and the dim light fell on Li Han''s shoulder. He half- lowered his head and nobody could not see the expression on his face. However, just looking at it like this, one could feel the gloom emanating from his body. The manager stood at the door waiting for his reply. Half a minuteter, the man said quietly, "No, get out." The man''s voice was a little hoarse because he drank too much wine. The manager looked at the empty bottles on the table and continued persuading him, "Mr. Li, it''s gettingte. You..." "Get out." Li Han interrupted him with impatience in his tone. He was so determined that the manager naturally could not say anything more and shut the door again. Li Han was the only one left in the box, and everything around him was quiet. Li Han leaned against the sofa and raised his hand to look at his watch. It was 3:45 in the morning. There was no news from the guards at the vi and Shu Tian should be asleep. Li Han raised his dizzy head. His stomach had a faint ache from the wine he had drunk. However, he filled up and drank it up one after another as if he had no consciousness. He wanted to indulge himself once. When he got drunk, he would not remember the disappointed look in her eyes when she watched him. [...] Shu Tian woke up before six o''clock the next morning. She spent the night on the floor. Her eyes were swollen from crying, her legs felt sore, and her head was slightly hot. She probably had a fever. It took her a long time to stand up from the ground. She mustered up the courage to open the door and found that the vi was still deste and he didn''te backst night. She could not tell how she felt in her heart. Was she disappointed? But she was afraid that she would not know how to face Li Han when she opened the door and saw him. Was she not disappointed? Facing the desteness in the room, she actually felt a little cold all over her body. Shu Tian stood at the door in a daze. Suddenly, the phone in her pocket rang crazily. Her body froze for a moment. She thought it was Li Han and didn''t expect it to be Ling Junze. Why was he calling her so early? Shu Tian subconsciously guessed that this must have something to do with Li Han. Otherwise, Ling Junze wouldn''t have called her at this time. She was thinking and the other party had hung up. In a few seconds, he called again. He kept calling her. Did something happen to Li Han? Shu Tian''s heart jolted, and her fingertips fell on the answer button, "Hello?" "Shu Tian, Li Han didn''t go homest night and drank all night in Red Club. Now he''s been poisoned by alcohol and is in aa from stomach bleeding. I''m giving him the serum first. You need toe to the hospital..." Alcohol poisoning, stomach bleeding,a. These words came into Shu Tian''s ears, startled her, and made her head shocked. In an instant, she panicked. After a whole night''s construction of resolution, when she heard the bad news about him, she was still unable to control her strong feeling and cried, "How''s he now?" "No consciousness yet. He should have a gastricvage first." This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Shu Tian''s heart ached abruptly. Before she could change her dirty clothes, she hurriedly went downstairs to get the car keys, "Doctor Ling, wait for me. I''ll be right there!" After hanging up, Shu Tian went to the garage without stopping. Thinking that Li Han was lying in the hospital now, she was so flustered that she fastened her seat belt several times before the buckle finally clucked. She had never driven fast in her life, and she would be afraid even if she drove a little faster than usual. But now the dashboard showed that the speed reached more than 80 miles per hour, and she did not even feel a trace of fear. All she thought about was that man. He didn''te backst night because he went drinking all night? Why did he drink until his stomach bled and he was unconscious? Shu Tian''s eyes suddenly turned red. She raised her hand and wiped them carelessly, afraid that she would not be able to see clearly the road ahead. Thinking of his extreme abuse of his body, she felt suffocated. It turned out that she was not the only one in pain, so was he. If she had known this would happen, she wouldn''t have driven him away even she would lose her backbone. She was frightened all the way. Fortunately, she finally arrived. Shu Tian went straight to the department that Ling Junze had said. As soon as she got out of the elevator, she saw Ling Junze and a group of doctors and nurses pushing Li Han to the ward. She ran up to him in a few steps and watched the man with closed eyes and a pale face. It was as if Shu Tian''s heart was being bitten by thousands of ants. Arge, warm hand fell on her shoulder. Shu Tian looked sideways and asked in a choked voice, "Is he... okay?" "He''s fine for the time being, but his stomach is not in good condition. He won''t be able to eat recently and can only rely on nutrition solution and liquid food." Seeing that Shu Tian was crying so hard, Ling Junze could not say anything of reproach to her for his good brother. Seeing that she was about to follow him into the ward, Ling Junze turned to block her, "Shu Tian, do you have time now? I have something to tell you." Shu Tian looked at him with red eyes and then at the man who was pushed into the ward. After hesitating for a few seconds, she lowered her head and nodded, "Yes." Ling Junze sighed silently and led her all the way to the director''s office. In the office, Tian Sangsang was also there, tidying up something. When she saw theme in, she left the space for the two of them. Before she left, she patted Shu Tian on the shoulder tofort her. "Sit down please." Ling Junze poured a cup of hot coffee and brought it to the table in front of her, "Li Han''s condition is not particrly serious. You don''t have to worry too much. He has a good physical condition and can stand this." Thest half of his sentence obviously showed his anger that Li Han cared so little about his body. Shu Tian put her hands on herps and crossed them. She said nothing. "Did you have a fight?" Ling Junze tried to make his voice sound less tense, afraid that Shu Tian would be restrained. Heforted her like a big brother, "The thing that can make Li Han drunk is probably very serious. Would you like to talk to me?" Shu Tian looked into his eyes, her eyshes trembling violently. After struggling for a long time, she asked nervously, "Doctor Ling, do you know the woman in the North Vis?" Chapter 163 Chapter 163 Her words seeded in silencing Ling Junze. When Li Han was unconscious and sent back here this morning, Ling Junze had been aware that something serious must have happened and made such a self-controlled man to indulge himself like this. But she never expected it to have something to do with Jiang Chujing. Ling Junze''s expression changed slightly. What Li Han was most worried about finally happened. Li Han had tried so hard to hide it. However, Shu Tian discovered Jiang Chujing''s existence in the end. So this seemingly powerful man was frightened. With no idea about how to deal with it, Li Han indulged in alcohol to numb himself. Ling Junze was mixed with feelings. In fact, he could have had countless excuses to prevaricate Shu Tian''s question. However, in the end, he decided to tell the truth. "I know." Shu Tian clenched her fists, with her fingernails piercing her palm. She was so pained that every word seemed to take all her strength... "Does everyone know?" Her voice trembled as if she would break down if Ling Junze gave her a positive answer. "Shu Tian, calm down first. It''s not what you think. I understand that you feel like being cheated and betrayed. You can doubt anything, but you have to believe that Li Han will never fall in love with anyone except you." Ling Junze looked firmly into her sad eyes, and his heart ached for this twenty-four-year- old girl who had gone through countless hardships. "I can tell you everything you want to know, as long as you ask me." Everything? Shu Tian blinked, absent-minded for a long time, but remained silent. At present, she was like a permitted peeper, confused about what to ask. There were too many questions, almost suffocating her. Ling Junze was aware that she was at a loss and exined, "The woman in North Vis is Jiang Chujing, two years younger than Li Han. I don''t know if Li Han has told you about her. To Li Han, Chu Jing is like a sister, and she can only be his sister." Thinking of Li Han''s anxiety at the gate of the North Visst night, Shu Tian said with some mockery, "They are not rted by blood, are they?" Ling Junze was confused for a moment and then nodded. "No." With his eyelids drooping, he added as if he came up with something, "Are you curious why Jiang Chujing is Li Han''s sister since they have no any blood rtionship?" Ling Junze got to the point. In fact, it was what Shu Tian cared about the most. Li Han disliked ying the field and he would not treat someone well for no reason. However, judging This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. from his care for Jiang Chujing, it was apparent that he cared very much about Jiang Chujing. "Because Jiang Chujing''s parents were benefactors to Li Han. When he went to A Country for further study, he could hardly get enough food. Even if he took a lot of part-time jobs every day, his sry was just the tip of the icebergpared to expensive tuition fees. It was Chujing''s parents who had funded him toplete his studies. At that time, Li Han had made up his mind to repay them when he seeded. However, on the way to Li Han''s graduation ceremony, the couple suffered a car ident and both died. It has be the biggest scar in Li Han''s heart." Speaking of it, Ling Junze was emotional. He always felt that the ident was distant, but it had actually been imprinted in his heart. "Before Chujing''s parents passed away, they pleaded with Li Han to take care of their daughter. As a result, Chujing was not only Li Han''s sister, but also his unshirkable responsibility." Although Li Han had done enough to repay the debt he owed back then, the responsible man felt that it was not enough. Shu Tian was surprised, and she felt a lump in her throat after listening to Ling Junze''s words. Ji Chuanyi had told her that Li Han''s family wasn''t wealthy, and when Li Han had been at the end of his rope, it was Jiang Chujing''s parents who had supported him. Therefore, Li Han would be grateful forever, not to mention that the couple died as an indirect result of his graduation ceremony. For Li Han, It must have been a devastating blow. Shu Tian had never known it before. Ling Junze lifted his teacup and took a sip. The warm and sweet fragrance of the tea was pervasive, making it easier for him to speak. "Later, Chujing was infected with an extremely rare H2 blood disease. There are only a few simr cases. Chujing could not be exposed to the sun, and her wounds aren''t self-healing. Besides, her blood system has acute rejections. She had suffered from the disease for many years, and Li Han had done a lot. Now she was better, so Li Han brought her back now. For fear that you would misunderstand him and that Jiang Chujing''s condition would deteriorate, Li Han kept it a secret carefully. But he didn''t mean to do it. He had no other choice." "Blood disease?" Shu Tian thought of the pale and weak facest night. Indeed, the girl looked sickly pale. "Yes, there is no cure yet. Doctors can only reduce her pain as much as possible. And Li Han supports her, under a lot of strain, both physically and mentally." Shu Tian covered her mouth in surprise. "He never told me..." If he had told Shu Tian, it wouldn''t have turned into the situationst night. Ling Junze sighed and gentlyforted her like an elder brother, "Don''t worry, Li Han absolutely doesn''t love her. Shu Tian, I hope you can trust him on this point." Ling Junze had known Li Han well after being his friend for so many years. Li Han was a good man and he would not cheat on Shu Tian. Shu Tian felt more relieved, and her interrogation was more of a grievance. "Why didn''t he tell me. Was I so untrustworthy?" "He doesn''t tell you because he values you too much." Ling Junzeughed a shortugh. "If you''re not that important to him, maybe he''ll tell you everything. You''re so essential that he is afraid that you wouldn''t forgive him. He just cannot risk losing you at all." It was said that the onlookers knew better than the yers. As a bystander, Ling Junze knew that Li Han loved Shu Tian more than Li Han thought, and Shu Tian loved Li Han very much as well. If one of them didn''t care about the other, how would they torture each other like this? "Han is not a person with a messy rtionship. He had a bad past, so he resisted women and was afraid of falling in love with someone. You are an exception, so you don''t have to worry about him falling in love with other women at all. He loves you with his heart and soul." Ling Junze gazed at Shu Tian, wishing that Shu Tian could stay with Li Han forever. Then, he added with a trace of bitterness in his gentle eyes. "He always does everything well and ovees the difficulties alone without telling you. In fact, he is willing to tell you, but he is used to enduring the pain on his own. Shu Tian, can you give him a chance? All these years, it''s really tough for him to be alone." Chapter 164 Chapter 164 Shu Tian walked out of the office heartbroken after hearing Ling Junze''s words and knew how poor and frustrated Li Han was a few years ago. Though she was deceived, she felt guilty. Shu Tian walked forward in a daze and realized that she had already walked to the door of the ward when she stopped. Though she did not open the door, she could picture him lying weakly in bed. She felt very sad, for he had never been so weak. Shu Tian hesitated for a long time and finally opened the door after taking a deep breath. As the door opened slightly, she peeped through the crack and saw the white quilt covering his legs. She quietly approached him and looked at his feet, his waist, his chest, and finally his handsome pale face. Even though he was wearing a hospital gown, she could guess that he had been drinking a lotst night because she smelled alcohol on him. He seldom ate spicy food because of his bad stomach, but now he drank wine until it bled. When looking at his depressed face, Shu Tian felt anxious and angry and wanted to look after him longer though she had nned to leave after seeing him. Shu Tian walked to the bedside to stand and sorrowfully noticed that he was breathing heavily and felt ufortable since he was frowning in his sleep and breathing heavily. She could not leave him alone since he was ill because of her. She knew he was punishing himself in this way. Shu Tian looked away from the man on the bed for a short time and decided to stay here longer after hesitating for a while. "If you want to see him, wipe his forehead and palms to cool him down faster." Suddenly remembering Ling Junze''s words, Shu Tian got a wet towel from the bathroom and carefully wiped the sweat off his forehead, neck, and palms. She washed the towel over and over again and wiped him. After three rounds, she sweated all over her back. Then, she took his temperature and found him at 38.2 degrees. She felt relieved because the temperature did not continue to rise and Doctor Ling said that it was a normal symptom after drinking. N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. Shu Tian was relieved and was about to put the thermometer back in its original position. Then, she looked at his deep, dark eyes. They looked at each other in the quiet ward. Shu Tian paused for a few seconds and wanted to run away with the thermometer in her hand. Just as she took a step, her wrist was grabbed from behind. She could break away from him, for he had just woken up and was very weak. Shu Tian looked at the needle in the blood vessel on the back of his hand and stopped immediately, "Let me go." "No." He answered in a hoarse voice. Shu Tian felt her heart race and didn''t turn around to look at him. Li Han felt the pulse beating wildly on her wrist and stared at her back. "I know you wiped my body just now." Shu Tian bit her lip and bushed and asked him angrily, "Were you awake just now?" "No." Li Han replied. "You moved too much in the middle and woke me up." Shu Tian was embarrassed. Just as Shu Tian was about to change her mind, he was on the verge of crying and said. "Tian, I was wrong." Shu Tian could not hold back her tears anymore when hearing his words. She sniffed and was angry at the thought of him tormenting his body in this way. "What''s wrong with you? You are in the hospital. Now it seems like I did something wrong!" "No." He held her tightly and apologized. "I''m sorry." Shu Tia was afraid that the needle for the infusion would fall off. After wiping away his tears, Shu Tian took a deep breath and turned around to face him with a bitter smile. "What do you want me to say, it''s fine? Or have I forgiven you?" Li Han frowned suddenly coughed so violently that his face turned red. Before he could finish coughing, he couldn''t wait to say, "You can hate me, as long as you don''t leave me." What he was most afraid of was neither her reproach norint, but losing her. Shu Tian was moved and noticed that he was also weak and fragile after being unveiled his powerful mask. She knew now that he shared her fear of losing the loved one. Shu Tian suddenly remembered Ling Junze''s words in the office Ling Junze said, "Are you willing to give him a chance?" She was willing to forgive Li Han because she had fallen in love with him. After knowing these facts, she no longer suspected him and felt sorrowful. She knew clearly that he was very hard because he had gone through a lot of suffering, carrying the responsibility. He was hurt a lot emotionally, but he still pursued happiness. At this moment, Shu Tian knew that they loved each other. They silently looked at each other for a long time. Shu Tian noticed he was nervous and bluffed him, "If you lie to me again, I will leave you and nevere back!" After hearing these words, Li Han held her tightly and said excitedly. "Tian." Chapter 165 Chapter 165 Shu Tian''s heart gave a great bound but she appeared angry. "I''m not yours." "Fine, you''re not mine, but I''m yours." He smiled, revealing his shiny teeth as if he had received the best gift in the world. "It''s the same anyway." Shu Tian had never seen him smile so happily before. She felt touched but also wistful. She had a bad reputation and so many people looked down upon her. Even her family thought she was born bad. But in the eyes of this man, she was so good, and being forgiven by her made himugh like a boy. Thinking of that, Shu Tian felt less angry and her attitude softened. "Why did you drink so much? Does your stomach hurt?" Thinking that he didn''t take his health seriously, Shu Tian couldn''t help but scold him, "You''re already 32. Your health will copse if you keep torturing your body like this." Li Han gazed at her silently and intently as if he wanted to carve her face on his heart. Many men didn''t like being nagged by their wives, but her worried nagging was the most beautiful melody to him. The man grabbed her wrists and shook them. "Are you not angry with me now?" He asked carefully. Shu Tian looked at his chin which was covered in stubble and his pale face and all she felt was apprehension instead of anger. He''d cated her so easily, which made Shu Tian curse herself inside for being a hopeless pushover. "I''m still angry, you asshole." In a heartbeat, her eyes reddened again. "You hid it from me for so long. If I hadn''t gone there myself, how long were you going to keep it from me? Did you even have the intention to tell me at all? Did it make you feel triumphant to keep me in the dark?" "You always do things I object in the name of doing me good. Do you know how much I hurt?" "I''ll do it to you someday so you can understand how it feels like..." Shu Tian keptining about his "Unforgivable misdeeds" and red at him with misty eyes. Li Han''s heart nearly melted. "It''s my fault. I''m an asshole." The man stroked her wrist with his slender fingers. "Tian, this asshole loves you. Can you give him a chance to make it up to you?" "What, what did you say?" Shu Tian widened her eyes in disbelief, forgetting to cry for a moment. The intense emotions in the man''s eyes almost engulfed her. He enunciated every syble so she wouldn''t miss any word, "I said, this asshole, he loves you." Shu Tian held her breath and her pupils dted. "Who do you mean?" "Me." His eyes glinted with affection. He answered the question that she had tried to ask him countless times. Shu Tian heard her heart thumping violently in her chest like a drum or a heart-stirring countdown. Time seemed to cease at this second. The surroundings faded and it felt like there were only the two of them in the world. She saw the man part his lips slightly and heard his firm voice say, "I love you." Shu Tian pped her hand over her mouth. She''d asked him that question but he hadn''t given her a positive question. She''d never asked him again for fear of getting a disappointing answer. Now, he told her so firmly that he loved her. Shu Tian had been deluding herself into believing that as long as they stayed together and cared for each other, it was enough. But only when he''d said these three words did she realize that she had been looking forward to hearing them. She''d been suppressed her love for him for too long and never had the courage to say it loud to him. She lost all her confidence in front of him. Now, he finally responded. "I... I didn''t hear you wrong, did I?" "No." Li Han felt so sorry when she sobbed. He couldn''t even take good care of her. How could he have taken out his anger on her? He pulled her closer and caressed her side face with his big palm. "Don''t cry. I''ll say that to you every N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. day in the future." Shu Tian felt the heavy stone on her heart were finally removed. She nodded and smiled with tears. "I need to ask you something," Li Han suddenly asked after the mood livened up. "What''s it?" Shu Tian asked. Her voice was muffled after crying and sounded innocent and cute. Li Han watched her sit down on a chair. A bleak gleam shed across his eyes. "How did you find North Vis?" He was sure that Shu Tian was not a sophisticated woman, so it was impossible that she''d found North Vis on her own. Someone must have told her something so she''d rushed over so out of control. It turned out that Li Han was right, but in retrospect, Shu Tian felt a little guilty and answered him in a low voice, "Jiang Mengyao told me." "Jiang Mengyao?" Li Han was not surprised. This name had appeared too frequently recently. "She found me when I was having my meal and said that she had been following you. You didn''t pick me up that evening and she sounded so sure, so I rushed over in a hurry..." Shu Tian''s voice trailed off and she measured his expression. Seeing that he didn''t get angry, she continued, "It was not that I suspected you. I..." "You should suspect me given that I didn''t tell you anything," Li Han cut in and cocked his eyebrows in a self-mocking way. Shu Tian didn''t know what to say. Li Han recalled carefully that apart from the asions when he''d driven himself, he had Li Wei with him every time he''d gone to North Vis, so the chance of being stalked was very small. Jiang Mengyao was someone wanted by the police. Was it possible that she''d stalked him without being noticed? Shu Tian saw his frown and asked uneasily, "What''s wrong?" "Nothing." Li Han didn''t want her to be involved in these dirty, sinister entanglements. Shu Tian asked suspiciously, "Really?" "Yes." Li Han smiled at her. "Don''t worry. I''ll see to everything. You just need to stay by my side." He''d repeated it so many times so Shu Tian replied helplessly, "I see. I''m not going anywhere. I''ll always stay by your side." The man''s eyes were as soft as feathers. He tenderly ran his cool fingers through her ebony hair and finally found the home to his drifting heart. Chapter 166 Chapter 166 Li Han was hospitalized this time. Apart from alcohol poisoning, the most serious injury was in his stomach. This stomach disease needed time to recuperate slowly. Ling Junze rebuked Li Han every day when he came in for inspection. "Do you really think that you are a young man who can recover within a day? Now what? You can only eat liquid food after three days in the hospital." Li Han didn''t want to talk to Ling Junze at first. Li Han knew that Ling Junze cared about him, but he found Ling Junze''s remarks more and more outrageous over time. Finally, Li Han couldn''t help it. "That''s enough." "Enough? No way!" Ling Junze injected the medicine into the infusion bottle. "Do you need to make an appointment for the next hospital stay?" Tian Sangsang coughed awkwardly. She had never seen Ling Junze speak so aggressively to anyone before. "By the way, did you tell Shu Tian something?" Ling Junze paused and quickly returned to normal. "What?" Li Han raised his eyebrows and looked at Ling junze who was pretending. "She won''t ept me for no reason. You''ve talked to her, haven''t you?" Ling Junze heard Li Han''s assertive tone and threw the syringe in the trash can with a smile. "I can''t hide anything from you. Did you install a bug in my office?" "We know each other." Li Han also smiled. They knew each other too well and they knew what the other was thinking. "I did talk to Shu Tian. She was too emotional at that time. I was afraid that she would be depressed, so I said a few more words. I thought she would tell you, but I didn''t expect her to be tight-lipped." Ling Junze shook his head as he spoke, then looked at Li Han who was sitting up on the hospital bed. "Don''t me me for talking too much." Li Han looked at Ling Junze in a white coat standing by the bed. The bright sunshine outside the window shone on Ling Junze, making Li Han feel warm. "Thank you." It was rare for them to thank each other so seriously. Ling Junze paused for a moment and raised his hand to cover his arm. "Let''s go. I get goosebumps..." As Ling Junze spoke, he walked out without looking back. Tian Sangsang raised her hand to cover her mouth and coughed again. She nodded at Li Han and followed Ling Junze out. Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Outside the door, Shu Tian was walking towards the ward with the soup and she bumped into Ling Junze. Just as she was about to ask Ling Junze about Li Han''s health, Ling Junze greeted her and left in a hurry. Behind Ling Junze, Tian Sangsang shrugged her shoulders helplessly and also left in a hurry. Shu Tian was puzzled. When she entered the ward, she was still thinking, "What''s wrong with Doctor Ling?" Li Han didn''t even raise his eyelids and sneered. "I guess he''s ttered." "ttered?" "Yes." Li Han interrupted her and changed the subject. "What''s in your hand?" "Ah, this is the nutritious soup. It''s good for the stomach. I bought it especially from the shop on WJ Road." Shu Tian opened the lunch box and it was time for lunch. She filled a bowl with the soup and handed it over. "Try it." Li Han lowered his eyebrows and nced at the small bowl in her hand. He tilted his head to signal Shu Tian to look at the back of his hand. "I just got an injection. I can''t take it." Shu Tian was about to put it aside. "Drink it after the injection..." "It''ll get cold after the injection." Li Han looked up at Shu Tian standing by, and he said with a childishness that he had not even noticed. "You want me to drink the cold soup and have a stomachache?" With that, Li Han raised his chin. "Feed me." Shu Tian looked at him with amusement. She knew that Li Han was deliberately teasing her, but she didn''t want him to drink the cold soup. Shu Tian helplessly picked up the bowl and sat beside him. "Are you acting coquettishly with me?" Hearing what she said, Li Han paused for a moment and he looked embarrassed. Then he quickly looked away. "Forget it. I won''t drink now." "No. Come on." Shu Tian scooped up a spoonful of soup with a smile and blew the soup carefully. Then she put it to his mouth, and deliberately said in a teasing tone, "Come on, open your mouth, ah..." Li Han''s face darkened all of a sudden. Knowing that she was teasing him on purpose, he pretended to be angry. "Tsk, you naughty girl." Shu Tian nodded. "Yeah, I''m naughty. So what?" Li Han was getting an injection now and he really couldn''t do anything to her. Li Han was depressed, and he wanted to push her down on the bed. "When I recover, you will suffer." "Well. I''ll wait for it." Shu Tian was not afraid of him at all and stuffed the spoon into his mouth. Li Han was about to speak when the soup choked him, and he coughed violently. Shu Tian didn''t expect him to choke. She panicked and hurriedly put down the bowl and spoon. Then she took out a piece of tissue to wipe his mouth. "Sorry, I didn''t mean to do it. Are you okay?" Li Han looked over angrily, and his handsome face still flushed from coughing. "Do you want to murder your husband?!" Shu Tian''s smiling face turned slightly red. "You are talking so much. Besides, you''re not my husband yet..." "Sure it''s me." Li Hany down in a bad mood. "Take it away. I don''t want to drink it." Seeing that he really didn''t want to drink it, Shu Tian could only persuade him, "Drink more. That shop makes great tonic soup. I waited in queue for nearly an hour in the WJ Road." No matter how good the soup was, it wasn''t cooked by Shu Tian. Li Han didn''t even raise his eyelids. "No!" Shu Tian was angry with his attitude, and she wondered that she would definitely not treat him like this if it weren''t for his illness! However, she still said gently. "If you don''t drink it, I won''t send it to you anymore. Since you don''t like it, I can only throw it into the trash can..." Shu Tian wouldn''te here anymore? She was threatening him. A smile appeared on Li Han''s face, but he quickly hid it and said, "It''s good for you not toe. Then no one can force me to eat." "You!" Shu Tian was angry. She had never prevailed when she argued with him. She paused for a long time and said angrily, "Do you want to drink it or not?" Li Han nced at her angry face from the corner of his eye. He knew that if he continued to tease her, she would probably be irritated. Li Han seemed to be reluctant, but he was secretly happy and sat up straight. "Feed me." Shu Tian looked at him and then at the bowl and spoon on the side. She thought that she had fed dogs before, so she could bear to feed him. Li Han opened his mouth and waited for her to feed him. Although Shu Tian was angry, she was afraid that he would choke again. So her movements were much gentler and Li Han finished the soup. Shu Tian went to the bathroom to clean the bowl. As soon as she finished, she heard an urgent knock on the door. She quickly wiped her hands and walked over to open the door. Chapter 167 Chapter 167 Surprisingly, it was Pei Yu. "Shu Tian!" Before Shu Tian could say anything, Pei Yu leaned over and shouted out her name. His charming eyes cast a pitiful light. "Is Li Han okay? It''s been a few days since he was in the hospital, but no one has told me that. I knew it today because Ling Junze spilled the beans..." Shu Tian was bombarded by his words and paused for a while, then she realized that he was exining to her. She knew that they were drinking together that night. She had wondered why Pei Yu hadn''t visited Li Han these days. It turned out that no one had told him. They were probably afraid that he would me himself. Shu Tian interrupted him and led him into the room. "He''s fine. Come on in." Pei Yu was very grateful and said. "Thank you, I really appreciate it!" Li Han had already heard Pei Yu''s exaggerated voice from afar. When he saw Pei Yue in, he looked at his evil face and said in a significant tone, "Here you are." Pei Yu seemed very worried. "Li Han, are you okay? When I heard from Junze that you are in the hospital, I was scared to death on the way here. If anything happened to you because we drank together, I wanna kill myself..." Shu Tian was speechless. Li Han twitched his mouth and said." If you continue to talk like this, I am gonna make that happen. Pei Yu blinked and walked to the bedside to look at Li Han on the bed. He was still very guilty. "I''ll fire the managerter. He always shows me something I shouldn''t see..." "No, it''s none of his business." Li Han had always kept a clear distinction between public and private interests. Besides, the manager had stopped him but failed. As an employee, the manager had no position to force him to do anything. Pei Yu lowered his head and did not speak. He paused for a few seconds and then raised his hand to stroke his hair, looking very agitated. Li Han sensed that he was a little depressed, so he changed the subject. "What are you doing here?" "I''m here to see you! If you''re in the hospital because of me, how can I stay at thepany anymore?" Pei Yu was so regretful. If he had a little consciousness that night. He would never allow Li Han to get so drunk. Shu Tian poured him a ss of water and saidfortingly, "Don''t worry. He''s already had a stomach problem a long time ago. He only needs to have a rest." "I asked Ling Junze just now. I was so angry that he was hiding it from me. Fortunately, your illness was not very serious. He said that in two days..." Pei Yu was about to say that Li Han would be discharged soon, but he felt a chill on his back. He turned around and saw that Li Han was looking at him coldly. He quickly stopped talking. As he was wondering what he had said that had provoked him, he saw Shu Tianing over. Suddenly, he understood that Li Han was exaggerating his illness just to make Shu Tian look after him. However... Seeing that Shu Tian was serving fruit and tea, Pei Yu knew that Li Han probably didn''t want to leave the hospital for the time being. Seeing that they suddenly stopped talking, Shu Tian asked, "What will happen in two days?" He immediately changed his words. "In two days... Li Han will have conservative treatment!" Shu Tian was very confused and asked, "Conservative treatment?" She had never heard the doctor mention it. Pei Yuughed said. "Yes, isn''t today thest day of the observation period? After today, you can rest assured!" "Really?" Shu Tian looked at the two of them and felt that something was odd, but she couldn''t tell. Seeing that she did not continue to ask, Pei Yu breathed a sigh of relief. If he had spilled the beans, Li Han would probably p him. While Shu Tian was going to the bathroom, Pei Yu whispered to Li Han in fear, "I was scared to death just now..." Li Han didn''t even bother talking to him. "Then you just leave. Don''t stay here." "Li Han, I''m here to see you. How can you hurt my heart so much?" "I''m fine if you''re not here. Now please get out of here." Pei Yu scratched his hair and asked, "Are you really okay?" Li Han gave him a smile and answered, "Well, I will not die." Hearing this, Pei Yu smiled and began to suck up to him. "With Shu Tian here, how can you die..." The two of them chatted for a while. Li Han thought about Jiang Mengyao. Because he couldn''t leave the hospital now and Pei Yu had a lot of connections, he thought it was best to leave this thing to Pei Yu. "By the way, there''s someone I want you to check for me." "Who is it?" "Jiang Mengyao." Li Han showed him the personal information of Jiang Mengyao that Zhang Bikun had just sent to him on his phone. "Now the police are also looking for her but didn''t find her. I need you to look for her with your connections. Let me know as soon as you have any clues." Pei Yu looked at the woman on the screen and nodded. "No problem." "I suspect someone is secretly helping her, or she wouldn''t have been hiding for so long." "Do you have any idea who is helping her?" Pei Yu put the phone away and said, "I can check it together." A few faces shed across Li Han''s mind but he passed them one by one. "No." "Okay, then let me look for this Jiang...Mengyao." As soon as he finished speaking, Shu Tian opened the bathroom door. The two of them then stopped talking. Pei Yu winked at Li Han and said. "Then I''ll go first. I don''t wanna be the third wheel." Pei Yu left the room in a hurry. Shu Tian looked at the back of the man who had disappeared at the door and said, " Pei Yu doesn''t seem like a man in his thirties at all. He seems like someone in his early twenties." "Yep. He does look like a kid when he goes crazy." "He was OK just now. He looked very lively." Shu Tian took out a wet tissue and wiped the table. After waiting for a while, she didn''t hear the man reply to her, she looked up at the man. Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Li Han was staring at her expressionlessly. She blinked then looked at him. "Why are you staring at me?" The man put away his phone and looked straight at her. "Do you like Pei Yu?" "What?" Shu Tian was confused by his question. What does the man mean? ''Why does he think that I love Pei Yu?'' Shu Tian was confused by his question andughed. "What do I like about him? I just think he has a good personality." "Why can''t I see it?" Li Han thought about it for a while and said, "Compared to him, I am more mature and steady, he is just a kid." Shu Tian rolled her eyes at him. He was just praising himself in a different way. But... Seeing that he was clearly unhappy but still had to hold it, she couldn''t help but want tough. She walked over and leaned on his bed. "Well, are you being jealous of him?" Li Han avoided her sly gaze and said coldly, "No." Seeing him like this, Shu Tian was even more certain. "You clearly are!" The woman''s chirping voice echoed in his ears, Li Han could feel thecency in her voice. Since the needle on the back of his hand had just been pulled out, he turned over and pressed her down. Suddenly the bed amodated two people. Shu Tian wanted to push him, but she didn''t dare to use her strength. Her face was turning red and she shouted with a scare, "What... What are you doing?!" Chapter 168 Chapter 168 "You can''t shut your mouth, can you?" He leaned over on purpose and his breath fell on Shu Tian''s face. "This is the hospital. What are you doing? What if someone sees us?!" Li Han originally only wanted to scare her, but when she was really in his arms, he couldn''t bear to let her go. The desire expressed in his eyes grew stronger and his body began to heat up, "Tian..." The man''s voice was hoarse and deep, which sounded low and deep like a beautiful melody yed. He looked so dangerously attractive, which kept making her tempted. Shu Tian warned herself to calm down. She then put her small hands between them out of panic, "Li Han, stop joking!" "I am not," he said indulgently and dotingly. Then he lowered his head to look for her lips, "It''s just that my mouth is a little dry." As he finished speaking, his sexy thin lips had already been attached to her lips. When their lips touched, she felt his lips indeed were a bit dry. But his lips were soon moistened by her. He was kissing her so tenderly and slowly, and he ran his tongue deep into her mouth and seldom withdrew it from her mouth. His kiss was so gentle and patient. It had been a long time since they had hugged and touched each other, so much so that just a light kiss was enough for both of them to get aroused and pant. He was on the top of her body, and his strong arms were on both sides of her head, afraid that he would press against her hard. Shu Tian gasped for a long time. A few tears appeared in her big eyes and she met his hungry eyes in a daze, "You..." Before she could speak again, the man on top of her pressed her down again. He seemed just to get some rest by leaving her alone just now. This time, he was much more dominating. The stronger desire in his body made the smell of his male hormone more distinctive, surrounding Shu Tian in an instant. He hadn''t had sex with her for half a month in a row, and just a kiss had made him behave impatiently as a young boy. Shu Tian was pressed under by him and barely could not breathe. Fortunately, he was still rational and let go of her before she got suffocated. He turned over andy down. The two of them were side by side, and neither of them spoke. Li Han put his hand to his eyelids, blocking his sight as he could not help looking at her. The blood vessels in his body kept vibrating, which were like heartbeats. Shu Tian blushed and breathed quietly, afraid that a careless move of hers would make the man next to her turn on. Fortunately, he was still rational and knew that this was the hospital, so he did not continue. After a while, hearing that his breathing was gradually calming down, Shu Tian then moved slowly to the bedside. Holding her breath for a long time, just as she was about to leave the bedside, he stretched out his long arm and drew her to his arms again, "Stay still. Don''t move recklessly." Shu Tian rolled her eyes helplessly. Who was moving recklessly, honestly? She lied casually, "I''m going to the bathroom." Property ? N?velDrama.Org. "You just went." "I want to wash my face." "You can wash itter." Li Han had no intention of letting her slip away. He was in the mood and buried half of his face on her neck. The fragrance of her body wafted into his nose, making him more rxed than any tranquilizer, "Sleep with me for a while. I won''t touch you." "The bed is too small. I''ll squeeze you..." "That won''t happen." As he spoke, his body already approached over, and he hugged her with arms even harder, trying to shrink the space between the two of them, "Sleep." Shu Tian wanted to say something else, but suddenly his warm and broad palm fell on her back. His big palm stroked through her clothes with aforting and coaxing force, making her unable to say anything she nned to say. He closed his eyes. Shu Tian narrowed her eyes and secretly looked at the man''s thin and exquisite facial features. His forehead was domed and smooth, the bridge of his nose was straight, the curve of his lips was sharp and sexy, and even his eyshes were longer than a girl''s. He really had an attractive face. Shu Tian looked at him and couldn''t help smiling. The bright sunlight outside the window shone into the room. She wished so much that time could stay at this moment, even if it was just for a day. [...] Li Han''s illness came and went quickly. In fact, he needed to spend a long time recuperating and he could not just recover in a short time span. His illness was not severe and he only needed to stay in the hospital for three or four days. Ling Junze thought that Li Han had left the hospital early. He had been so busy with forums and lectures recently that he forgot to ask. He didn''t expect to see Li Han in the hospital when he rushed back from L City seven dayster. He subconsciously turned to look for Tian Sangsang, "Why is he still here?" Tian Sangsang was also very helpless. During the several days not seeing Ling Junze, she was quite at ease. Now she got tensed up again, "Mr. Li has been here all the time. He hasn''t been discharged." "Not discharged?" Ling Junze was surprised. He thought that how could such a workaholic actually stay long in the hospital? There was no reason... He pushed open the door of the ward and walked in. After a casual greeting, he took the chart at the end of his bed and saw that everything was normal. Li Han had been injected with pure nutrition and glucose since the fourth day. Just as it was time for the ward inspection, the doctor in charge walked in. Seeing that Ling Junze was also there, the doctor bowed down respectfully and greeted, "Mr. Ling." Ling Junze waved his hand to hint that he heard him. Ling Junze handed the chart to him and frowned, "Didn''t you inform him to leave the hospital?" "I, I did." "Then what..." Ling Junze looked at the man on the bed halfway through his sentence, "Why are you still here?" Li Han looked at him coldly, "I think my body needs to be observed for a few more days." "Do you need more?" Ling Junze smiled, "You''ve only been injected with nutrition since the fourth day. There''s no need. It''s better to leave the hospital and recuperate with traditional Chinese medicine." Unexpectedly, the man insisted on being hospitalized, "No, I''m worried." Ling Junze was dumbfounded. When did Li Han care so much about his body? It was abnormal. It was really abnormal. "Did you say something to him?" Ling Junze looked at the doctor beside him. The doctor quickly shook his head. Before he could say anything, Tian Sangsang stood up first, "Doctor Chen didn''t say anything. Mr. Li wants to stay in the hospital for a few more days." Ling Junze didn''t expect her to suddenly jump out and exin. Thinking of the recent rumors circling around, which said that she had a close rtionship with Doctor Chen, Ling Junze immediately scolded her in a bad temper, "Did I ask you?" Tian Sangsang looked at him in astonishment. She didn''t understand why he suddenly lost his temper. She wanted to talk back, but she didn''t dare. She pursed her lips in a grievance, "No." "Then stand where you are and don''t make a sound." After saying that, Ling Junze stopped looking at her and walked to Li Han''s bedside. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly caught a glimpse of all kinds of fruits that were peeled on the side. A somewhat absurd and willful idea shed through his mind. Ling Junze hesitated, "You can''t be..." "That''s exactly what you think," Li Han interrupted Ling Junze in time. It was still very shameful for others to know what he was up for and speak it out. Li Han didn''t want to hear it. Chapter 169 Chapter 169 Ling Junze was dumbfounded, "You''ve really changed a lot!" It was said that a man would be different from what he was like before after he fell in love. Ling Junze didn''t believe it before, but now found it to be true. Li Han had be apletely different man! Li Han was not so calm as he appeared to be. In fact, his face was also hot, but he was good at hiding his emotions, and other people could hardly find it out. In order to enjoy Shu Tian''s careful care every day, he was willing to be cheeky. Ling Junze was rendered speechless and turned to leave. Halfway through, he couldn''t help but tell him, "Don''t dy too long. The cost of staying in the ward is expensive." After that, he raised his foot and left. Tian Sangsang hadn''t recovered from his scolding yet, and she was standing there in a daze when she heard Ling Junze''s voiceing from outside the ward, "Tian Sangsang!" She shuddered and quickly followed him out. Doctor Chen took a step forward and blocked her, "I''m sorry to make you being scolded." Tian Sangsang didn''t have time to say anything more and could only force a smile, "It''s okay. I''ll talk to you about itter." Doctor Chen looked at the two people who had left one after another and was a little confused, but since he came to go the rounds of the wards, he still had to do a good job and could not be affected by his personal emotions. He took the medical records and recorded Li Han''s physical indicators and the medication he used in detail. The tip of the pen brushed on the paper, leaving rows of beautiful and chic notes. Li Han nced at him. Doctor Chen was wearing a pair of sses and looked gentle. He was not very tall, so it could be guessed that he was a doctor by his appearance. Li Han lowered his eyes and said calmly, "You can like anyone else, but just don''t like Tian Sangsang. Your Director Ling doesn''t like others to covet his belonging." Doctor Chen was surprised. He didn''t know how this man could tell that he liked Tian Sangsang. He had already restrained himself. However, all of his thoughts could not escape Li Han''s eyes. Through a slight expression or a move, he could guess what ordinary people could not think of. But what did he mean by that? Li Han told him not to covet Director Ling''s belonging. Could it be that Director Ling... liked Sang?! [...] Ling Junze had long legs so he took long steps. Tian Sangsang could barely keep up with his speed by trotting all the way. Finally, he entered the director''s office. As he walked, he took off his white coat and threw it at her. Before Tian Sangsang could see it clearly and catch it, she was hit in the face. There was no other smell on the pure cotton white coat, only a faint smell of detergent after being washed. It smelled likevender, but it didn''t seem to be. If she didn''t smell it carefully, she wouldn''t be able to notice the smell at all. Ling Junze sat on the sofa. He picked up the ss on the table and drank the water in it. In addition to quenching his thirst, it was more like that he wanted to use the water to extinguish the fire of anger in his heart. Tian Sangsang stood aside and did not dare to move. She was afraid that her unintentional behavior would provoke him again. She sighed in her heart that recently Director Ling had be so strange and sensitive... However, the more she did not speak, the more annoyed Ling Junze became. The silence in the big room made him a little unhappy. After a long time, Tian Sangsang''s legs were numb because of her standing still. Only then did she ask in a low voice, "Director Ling, if there''s nothing else, I''ll go out first." Go out? She talked so little with him and only wanted to leave. How much did she want to stay away Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. from him? Ling Junze was furious and looked at her threateningly, which made Tian Sangsang feel as if he had dropped a bomb in her heart, "Did I let you go?" No, he hadn''t allowed her to leave, but now he didn''t say a word, nor did he ask her to do anything. He kept a straight face and let her stand here. Was he going to ask her to be the doorkeeper for him? Tian Sangsang felt that she was so patient that she didn''t rush over to tear up that annoying face. Ling Junze saw the little fire burning in her eyes and did not take it seriously at all. He even smiled contemptuously and said, "Did the hospital tell you during the training that you are not allowed to fall in love with your colleague? Do you remember?" Of course, Tian Sangsang remembered it, but why did he say these now? She didn''t vite this rule, did she? After thinking about it, Tian Sangsang still didn''t understand what he meant. She still couldn''t help but ask him directly, "Director Ling, what do you mean? Just say it out to me." What she was most afraid of was others talking to her in a roundabout way. It didn''t mean that she thought it was wrong for others to talk in this way, but that she was afraid she couldn''t understand what they meant at all. For example, she couldn''t understand what Director Ling meant now. Ling Junze tilted his head. It seemed that he had smiled again, and then he stood up and strode towards her. His natural height made him able to look down at her in a domineering manner, and he said, "What''s going on between you and Doctor Chen? Do you need me to tell you?" "Doctor Chen?" Tian Sangsang was confused, "What happened to him and me?" "The medical staff in hospital have been talking about the rtionship between the two of you recently. The impact is very bad. Won''t you tell me you don''t know about it at all?" Obviously, even if she said it, Ling Junze would not believe her. Tian Sangsang''s delicate features crumpled together. She said, "He and I are just colleagues, and there is nothing else between us." Ling Junze looked into the depths of her eyes. There was no panic or an intention to conceal that would make him angry. She probably hadn''t lied, but there would not be a groundless rumor. Since such rumors were spread, it proved that they were still very close to each other. Ling Junze gritted his teeth. He didn''t understand why he cared so much and even lost hisposure slightly. He adjusted his mood and returned to his usual warm but distant appearance, "It''s best that there is nothing else between you and him." [...] Li Han felt at ease and enjoyed three more days of imperial treatment. When it came to the weekend, Zhang Bikun personally came to discharge him from the hospital. Thepany''s affairs were piled up so high that Li Han couldn''t continue to stay in the hospital or dy any longer. At half past two in the afternoon, after the discharge formalities werepleted, Li Han walked out of the hospital, holding Shu Tian by her shoulder. Ling Junze did note down. The second-in- departments. It seemed as if they were all unwilling to see Li Han leave so that they came here together to see him off. Knowing that they had something to say, Shu Tian got into the car early and looked through the car window at Li Han standing at the door of the hospital. He was no longer haggard and bearded as he was when he first entered the hospital. He changed into a suitable suit, looking energetic with an extraordinary temperament. He exuded the unique charm of a mature man in every move. There were nurses passing by from time to time, and none of them dared to look straight at Li Han. His aura was too strong, and most people really couldn''t bear it. Many of the nurses blushed and directly ran away. After they ran a few meters away, they couldn''t help but look back at him. Shu Tian twitched her mouth and looked away, but she was cursing in her heart that he was such a seducing man that wherever he went people would always be attracted by him! In less than ten minutes, the back door of the car was opened again, and then a long, slender leg came in. Shu Tian nced at him from the corner of her eye and asked, "Are you done?" Chapter 170 Chapter 170 "Yes." He told the driver to go back to Imperial Vi. She was slightly surprised. "Aren''t you going to thepany?" "Not now. I''ll rest for another two days." "How about your work?" He had been in the hospital for more than a week. For the first three days, Zhang Bikun did note. But after that, he had visited him every day and usually stayed for the whole morning to report the work. "Don''t worry. I can arrange remote meetings at home. It won''t be affected." He had rarely taken a leave, and he was in a rxed mood after having just reconciled with Shu Tian, acknowledging the existence of Jiang Chujing. The only thing on his mind was to be with her topensate for neglecting her previously. He fixed a burning gaze on her face, which she could endure for only seconds. Then she became uneasy, touching her face. "Is there something on my face?" Amused by her reaction, he put her onto his thigh and pressed his warm lips against her ears. A wicked grin crawled up the corner of his lips. "I''m thinking why you are so eager to get rid of me." His breath tickled her. She tilted her head aside. "It''s a concern about your business. How could you me me for that?" He pinched the soft area around her waist and made her scream. Therefore, he lifted the soundproof panel to stop the sound from transmitting to the main driver''s seat. "Say why you are so concerned." This position... She knew exactly what was on his mind and intended to return to her seat with no reply. As he moved a little bit, he wrapped her shoulder. "I warn you, don''t move. Or you''ll be responsible for whatever happens." Why should she be responsible? Her eyes told him that she was frightened and extremely nervous, and he didn''t mean to intensify it. "Stay in my arms for a while. I won''t do anything else." He picked up her little hand in his palm and pecked it with his lips lightly. His movements made her heart pound rapidly. The skin he had kissed seemed to be burning, and she felt weak and fell on his arm. The car drove steadily, and he did do nothing else to her. Today Shu Tian had tied up her hair, a slightly loose bun hanging on the back of her head. A few strands of hair near her ears fell causally on her neck. Her face was the size of a palm and looked so charming. He was spellbound. He had met all types of women, stunning, sharp, cold, and gentle, but none of them had struck him. She was beautiful, bathing him in the spring breeze. She was unique, impressing him at his first sight. In particr, her bright eyes were full of life, prompting his dormant heart to beat again. "You look gorgeous." He chuckled and pinned the hair around her ear. The sudden praise made her blush, and she did not dare to look at him in the eyes. "Why did you suddenly praise me?" He did not expect to be asked this in this sweet atmosphere. He thought it was because he had rarely talked in this way. "Tiantian, thank you." He was thanking her for taking so care of him in the hospital, as well as for forgiving his past. She was embarrassed to face his outspokenness, thus hiding covering half of her face in his chest. "Thank you for your patience. No matter what happens, we''ll be honest with each other, okay?" "No problem." He pressed her against his chest to make her hear his quickening heartbeat. "Trust me and never doubt my love. My heart only pounds for you." He was desperate to have her know how much he loved her after a narrow escape of breakup. She wagged her head. "Sure, I know it." Love was absolutely not a thing maintained by one side. He loved her. She strongly felt it. Or else what could have made a person like him give so much except love? She knew it all. Li Han gave her a meaningful look. "There''s one thing you don''t know." "What is it?" "Secret." She was stunned and raised her head to see a mysterious face. She muttered with her girlish arrogance, "As you like." However, she was terribly curious about the matter under the pretense, and she intuitively felt that it had something to do with her. After all, he had no experience in love and was not skilled in concealing his emotions. But what could it be? She stopped questioning him but kept wondering about it in her mind. [...] It was almost dinner time when they arrived at the Imperial Vi. Meals at the hospital had been quite simple, and Shu Tian had taken whatever had been avable. The thought of cooking annoyed her much, but the aroma of dishes surprised her nose as she opened the door. She looked down into the room, a tinkling sound originating in the kitchen. Her heart went to her throat instantly, and she turned to look at Li Han behind her. "There is someone at home!" The news didn''t disturb him at all. "Just go and take a look." Her nerve steadied. She found four dishes and a soup on the table on her way to the kitchen. They were fried parsley and shrimp, braised cabbage, steamed beef breast, stewed cordyceps flower and chicken, and a crucian carp and tofu soup. Not only did they look delicious, but also the smell that floated into her nose tempted her. This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. She entered the kitchen with amazement, and a short female figure came into her eyes, who wore an apron in front of the stove. She was plump and had a face full of soft features. Shu Tian found some silver hair on her ck head. The woman paused for a moment seeing her presence, but she quickly greeted her with a smile. "Are you Miss Shu?" Shu Tian was still in her amazement and replied, "Yes, I am. How about you?" "Mr. Li hasn''t told you yet?" The woman hastened to wipe off the water on her hand by the apron. "I''m the new servant. My name is Li Lanfang. I''m 55 years old." A servant? Hadn''t he said he would not have liked extra people at home? Why did he hire a servant? She shook her hand politely. It felt a little rough, probably due to years of work. Then she smiled and said, "Nice to meet you, Nanny Li. Hope it is not hard work to take care of the home." She was moved by her politeness after she had worked for many rich families. No hostess had ever given her so much respect. Before she came here, the manager of the service center had warned her to be cautious because the employer was a big shot. She didn''t expect the hostess to be so modest and approachable. She answered with the same politeness, "It''s my duty. Miss Shu, please wait outside. The kitchen was full of oily smoke. I''ll call you when dinner is ready." "Okay." Out of the kitchen, Shu Tian went straight to the master bedroom on the second floor. No one was in the room, but the door of the cloakroom opened. She was in such a hurry that she didn''t knock on the door, only to see Li Han take off his shirt and his naked upper body. Chapter 171 Chapter 171 Li Han was also stunned, but soon pulled himself together. He slowly unbuckled his belt and said, "What are you doing? Why are you in such a panic?" Shu Tian blushed and looked away from him. She coughed softly. "Well, when did you employ a servant to help me?" "Not long ago." The man replied with an indifferent tone. Then she heard him zip his pants. Shu Tian''s ears turned red, and she didn''t dare to move her eyes. She stared at the carpet under her feet. "You''ve said that you don''t like strangers at home. Why did you hire her?" "It''s true, but I can''t leave you handling all of these chores. You need some help." She cooked for him a few times and took the meals to the hospital. Although she didn''t mention the small wound on her fingers, he still saw it. He was concerned about her, so he looked for a servant as her assistant before leaving hospital. Shu Tian was absolutely willing to have an assistant. However, at the thought of what happened to him when he was a child and his disgust and resistance towards servants and strangers, she didn''t want him to do something against his will. "Don''t worry about me. I''m now a bit busier as you''re in hospital but I can handle all things with ease at ordinary times. "But my heart will ache." Li Han said as he walked up to her. His belt had been unbuckled and removed. His pants were hanging loosely around his waist, and the upper part of his underwear could be seen. Shu Tian took a step back, but he stepped forward. He kept approaching her and she was forced into a corner. Her body was pressed against the hard wall. She subconsciously swallowed. She raised her arms between their close bodies, saying, "What do you want to say? You don''t have to act so indecently." Li Han ced one of his hands next to her head. "What indecent things did I do?" Shu Tian was speechless. "I don''t think you need to ask. You know what''s on your mind right now!" "Oh..." He elongated this word. Suddenly, he seemed to recall something. "I did have a lot of happy memories here before." He deliberately emphasized these words, giving her hints. Some indescribable images shed through her mind. Her face was flushed and she red at him angrily. "We''re talking about something serious!" "The servant has been hired. I won''t fire her. It''s nice to have someone at home to help you. That''s all." "But..." "No buts." He interrupted her, "It''s true I don''t like it, but I can give in for you." Hearing what he said, Shu Tian swallowed her words. She had subtle feelings. She was thinking for him wholeheartedly, and so was he. It turned out that they had disagreements just because they were too considerate towards each other. It was a little ridiculous, but also heartwarming. Shu Tian softened her voice. "I was afraid that it would be inconvenient for you..." "I know." Li Han lowered his head and gave a light kiss on her pink lips. The sound of the kiss made her blush. He lowered his voice and whispered in her ear with a sexy and hoarse voice, "Except making love with you, nothing is inconvenient." Shu Tian stared at him in surprise and stuttered. "What are you, you, you, what are you talking about?" She pushed the man in front of her away forcefully, but Li Han did not stop her. He took a step back cooperatively and watched her run away with a red face and neck, like a cute elk. The fragrance of the woman''s body seemed to still linger in his nose. Li Han looked down at his erecting lower part, and helplessly held his forehead. Was it...too sensitive? [...] Shu Tian trotted downstairs. Coincidentally, Nanny Li took out the meals. She specially cooked the brown rice instead of the white rice, which was good for health. Shu Tian was about to help her to get chopsticks and spoons from the kitchen, but Nanny Li quickly stopped her. "I''ll do it by myself. Miss Shu, you don''t have to help me." "It''s okay. Your hands are full. It''s nothing." "No...This is what I should do. How can I make you do it?" Nanny Li took the cutlery from her hand and ced them on the table in order. "Mr. Li will not be pleased if he sees you do it." Shu Tian could understand Nanny Li''s teasing gaze and awkwardly raised her hand to tidy her hair. "It''s okay. I used to do all the housework at home. Nanny Li, you don''t have to be too nervous here. I don''t care about who is the employer or who is the employee here. It is fate that links us together and draws you to work here." Li Han came downstairs and just hear her words. He was not surprised at all. Shu Tian was always kind so she would never make things difficult for others. It was because of her kindness that he was deeply attracted to her. Li Han changed intofortable leisurewear, and Nanny Li pulled out a chair for him, "Mr. Li, dinner is ready. You can eat before it gets cold." Compared to Shu Tian, Li Han was not so approachable. He nodded slightly to hear her. The two of them sat down. Li Han did not have the habit of eating too much, and Shu Tian almost gobbled it up. Apart from the sound of the spoon touching the bowl, almost no one spoke during the meal. N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. Perhaps it was because the dining room was so quiet that Li Han was not used to it. He looked sideways at the woman who was eating and his eyes were full of tenderness. "Do you like it?" "Amazing! It tastes better than my mom''s cooking." Although Ye Lihua''s cooking was delicious, it still was inferior when beingpared to Nanny Li''s cooking. Li Han curled his lips. "As long as you like it." Shu Tian caught a glimpse of the soup bowl in his hand that was empty. She reached out and scooped up the crucian carp soup for him. "Drink some. It''s good for your health." As she spoke, she took off the drumstick and put it into his bowl. "One for you." Li Han looked at the steaming drumstick on the te and recalled the scene where someone picked up a drumstick for him when he was still six or seven years old. At that time, he was the only child in the family and his parent''s marriage had notpletely broken down. During the holidays, families would always leave the drumstick to him. Unfortunately, everything changedter on. He was never treated in this way again. Shu Tian noticed that he was staring at the drumstick in a daze. She was about to say something, but she sensitively understood the trace of sadness behind his gaze. She felt a little miserable for a moment. So she deliberately livened up the atmosphere and teased him."Are you moved by it? I will keep the drumstick to myself but you are an exception as you''re a patient." Li Han came to his senses and put the drumstick into his mouth with chopsticks. The whole chicken was well stewed. The meat in his mouth was soft and sweet, tasteful but not greasy. "Not bad." It was rare for him to praise the others. Shu Tian said to Nanny Li, "You are the first one who can win hispliment." "Really? Then I''m so honored!" Nanny Li felt a strong sense of aplishment when hearing what she had said. It was such a pleasant dinner that Shu Tian didn''t stop eating. She ate almost half of the four dishes and drank a bowl of soup. She was so full that she even couldn''t walk and lie on the sofa. Li Han took a cup of warm water from the kitchen and gave it to her. She quickly waved her hand. "No, thanks. I can''t drink another mouthful." "Come on. It''s good for digestion. I have something to doter." He kept asking her to drink some and handed her the ss. Shu Tian thought that it was impossible for her to refuse, so she took a sip perfunctorily. She felt so full that the food seemed to be piled up and stuff her throat. "What''re you going to doter?" It was almost eight o''clock. Was he going out? Li Han''s eyes met her nk gaze. Her deep ck eyes seemed to be filled with countless stars, shining brightly. He stared at Shu Tian but did not say anything. The emotions in his eyes became more and more intense. Shu Tian suddenly felt the cup she was holding a little hot. She seemed to understand what he meant from his eyes. Chapter 172 Chapter 172 It was said that one was likely to be influenced by close association. After being with Li Han for so long, Shu Tian had not only improved her working ability but also got to know him better so that she could understand some of his "veiled hints" much more quickly than before. For example, what he said just now was obviously normal, but Shu Tian could somehow understand his deeper meaning. In the past, she would never have thought of it. Property ? N?velDrama.Org. Shu Tian rolled her eyes and pretended not to understand what he meant. She asked, "What do you want to do?" She didn''t know how to lie, and her expression couldn''t deceive anyone. Her charade was of no use in front of Li Han. He could tell at a nce that she was asking knowingly. His thick eyebrows were slightly raised. He held his arms around his chest and looked at her calmly, "Are you sure you want me to say it again?" Shu Tian raised her head and looked at him with an iparably innocent look, "Li Han, what are you talking about? Why can''t I understand?" "I said," He leaned over to her fair and pretty ear, "I want to do something with you." Shu Tian gritted her teeth and her heart was about to jump out of her throat. The meal she had just eaten became even more difficult for her to digest. "What''s the matter..." Before she could finish her sentence, he interrupted her, "Do... something we love to do." The wordy made Shu Tian, who was originally bashful, blush and feel more embarrassed. Shu Tian could no longer pretend that she didn''t understand what he meant now. She threw the remote control of the TV in her hand away and ran to the second floor before she could put on her slippers. Nanny Li finished cleaning up in the dining room and happened to see this scene when she came out. She asked in confusion, "What is Miss Shu doing?" "It''s okay." Li Han straightened up and seemed to be in a good mood, "She is so timid that she chooses to be a turtle that retracts its head into its shell." "A turtle?" Nanny Li couldn''t understand what he meant. Li Han did not exin more. He just chuckled and told Nanny Li to rest early and then went upstairs, leaving Nanny Li alone to wonder about it. Li Han took two steps of stairs in a stride and he reached the door of the master bedroom with just a few steps and stood still. He raised his hand and pressed the doorknob. The door was not opened, because she locked it, as expected. He was not in a hurry and he slowly raised his hand to knock on the door twice, "Shu Tian, open the door." "No! You can go to sleep in the guest room!" Shu Tian did not walk away but stood by the door. She stared at the door nervously with her big eyes, afraid that he would suddenly barge in. In fact, she did not reject doing that with him. Instead, she enjoyed it very much. It was just that the two of them had not done such intimate things for a long time, and he had just been discharged from the hospital. Even if he was not seriously injured, she was somewhat worried about his health condition. "I will just say it once more. Open the door." Li Han repeated, and his tone was a little more serious than before, making Shu Tian feel guilty. Shu Tian braced herself and shook her head, regardless of the fact that Li Han could not see her at all, "I won''t open the door. You have just recovered and can''t do such vigorous things..." With a click, there was a sound outside the door which was in front of her, as if something had been inserted into the keyhole. Shu Tian''s words suddenly stopped at her mouth. Her eyes widened and widened. As if it was a slow- motion rey, she watched the doorknob being pressed down and the door was opened from the outside... When did he get the key? Shu Tian held her breath and immediately squeaked when she saw him walk in, "Ah!" She was like a little white rabbit that was discovered by a hunter. She immediately jumped up and down the room to escape from him. Unfortunately, the disparity in their strength was too great. Before long, she was pressed on the bed by Li Han and could not move. "Run, why don''t you keep running, huh?" After chasing her for a while, Li Han was also a little breathless. Thinking of the stupid thing he had just done, he felt a little angry. He had done everything for her, and it was the first time for him to chase after someone in a room in the middle of the night. Shu Tian red at him, "Let go of me..." "You only know to ask me to let you go. When can you say you want me?" Li Han was a little hurt in his self-esteem, and his words also became unrestrained. Although he knew that she was worried about him, he would be more or less unhappy to be dodged by his own woman in this way. It wasn''t that they hadn''t had sex before. Why did she always try to escape from him? Could it be that his skill was not good enough? This idea was dismissed by Li Han as soon as it shed through his mind. It was impossible. Every time she was always made to get high by him. It was absolutely not because of this. Since he was unable to figure it out, Li Han simply did not think about it more. When he looked at the woman who was pressed under him, the lust in his heart began to rise again. He also felt strange. After 32 years of living without any desire or lust, he had broken through after he met her. He left the so-called self-control all behind and thought it was all nonsense. It was a long night, and everything seemed to have found a way to burst out, filling their hearts in an instant. Chapter 173 Chapter 173 In North Vis, gloominess had descended over the house after Li Han and Shu Tian had left. Jiang Chujing did not know about Li Han''s hospitalization, neither did Li Wei. So ever since he and Shu N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. Tian had left the vi, Jiang Chujing had lost contact with him. She''d been waiting for his call for a week and felt desperate and distressed atst. Had he forgotten about her because of that woman named Shu Tian? Had he forgotten his promise to her and her parents? A fierce light shed across Jiang Chujing''s eyes. She gritted her teeth when she thought of Shu Tian and deemed her a coquette who should be med for everything. Jiang Chujing had felt threatened since the day she''d met Shu Tian in person. With a healthy, rosy face, she was even more beautiful than she was in the photo. Jiang Chujing had been green with envy when Li Han held her in his arms. He belonged with her, not Shu Tian. In Jiang Chujing''s eyes, Shu Tian was the other woman whom she was dying to tear into pieces. To her annoyance, Jiang Mengyao called her almost every other day at this point and Jiang Chujing red up on the call atst. "What''s wrong with you? I told you, I reach out to you, not the other way round, remember?" "What do you mean? I helped you and got myself into trouble. Now you leave me in the lurch. People are searching for me, and..." "I know," Jiang Chujing interrupted her impatiently, "I''ve given you a solution." Jiang Mengyaoughed hysterically. "Do you mean getting holed in some remote countryside?" Jiang Chujing took a deep breath to calm herself down. Jiang Mengyao was still of use to her. She regainedposure and said, "This is a special time. If you don''t hide, you will be arrested by the police and everything you did will be in vain!" "How long do I have to hide?" Jiang Mengyao shouted at her phone on the crest of a hill in deste suburbs. Withered weeds reaching her waist surrounded her. She looked like a lonely ghost wandering in the wilderness. "There must be an end. I can''t wait like this forever." "Calm down." For fear that Jiang Mengyao did any impulsive things to ruin her n, Jiang Chujing soothed in a soft voice, "It won''t be long. As long as the police can''t find you, we''re at halfway mark. You can be free once the dust settles." Hearing Jiang Chujing''s promise, Jiang Mengyao wrapped the musty coat around herself and warned, "Okay, I''ll trust you onest time. Remember, we sink or swim together. If you put me through hell, I''ll drag you down with me." Malice crept over Jiang Chujing''s face but she answered smoothly, "Don''t worry. I won''t leave you twisting in the wind. Wait for my call." After hanging up, Jiang Chujing turned off her phone and spun to lock it in the drawer. Unexpectedly, she saw Li Wei staring at her in the doorway. She almost jumped. Patting her chest, she snapped, "What are you doing there?" Li Wei looked at him with aplicated expression and remained silent. Jiang Chujing had a bad feeling and walked to him after locking her phone in the drawer. "You heard what I said?" Li Wei''s expression changed slightly. "Why are you doing this?" Everyone knew that she loved Li Han to distraction, so why was she doing this? Perceiving the fleeting disgust in his eyes, Jiang Chujing immediately started fake crying and said pitifully, "I don''t mean it but I''m out of options." "Why do you hurt the person the man you love loves? You can''t be with him so you don''t allow him to be with his beloved one?" Li Wei asked incredulously. What Jiang Chujing and Jiang Mengyao were doing was too much in his eyes. Because of his harsh words, tears fell down Jiang Chujing''s face like rivers. "I don''t intend to ruin him. I just don''t want him to lose everything for a woman." Jiang Chujing didn''t sound repentant at all as if she was the victim. "I thought you understood me, but you despise me too..." She cried woefully. "Is it all my fault? Did I do something wrong?" Li Wei felt bad to see her like that. All that she''d done wrong was falling for a man who didn''t love her. "Li Wei, am I despicable to you now because I''ve colluded with Jiang Mengyao against Shu Tian?" Jiang Chujing acted like a drunk woman who could finally say what was in her heart with Dutch courage. He''d shown disapproval to what she was doing so she might as well deprecate herself before he hated her. It would probably change his mind. Li Wei really did not understand why Jiang Chujing did that. It could lead to serious consequences. But... She sobbed so sadly. Li Wei thought maybe she was a good girl who just got her judgment warped by love. He walked to Jiang Chujing and said, "Mr. Li treats you very well and takes you as his family. I''ve never seen him care for anyone like this. Even if it''s not love, it''s enough, isn''t it?" She could stay by his side in another way. Jiang Chujing only wanted tough at him. She suppressed the disdain inside and shook her head miserably. "You don''t understand. It''s hard to take back the heart once it''s given." "But if Mr. Li finds out what you did, he will be really disappointed." Hearing this, Jiang Chujing stiffened and looked at him wistfully. She asked with a look as fragile as the dew on a pedal, "Will you tell him?" Li Wei did not answer her immediately. He was hesitating. Jiang Chujing stared at him nervously, afraid of missing any subtle expression on his face. When she saw the hesitation in his eyes, she reached out and grabbed his hands. Instead of begging for mercy, she lowered her head and let her tears drop on the back of the man''s hand. Seeing his finger trembling, she said under her breath, "I want to have someone to rely on. It was harrowing to stay in the hospital abroad alone in the past years. I don''t want to do this, but Li Han is the only one left in my world. I can''t lose him too..." Li Wei almost melted in her tears and his heart softened. He felt an urge to hold the woman in his arms. "You can trust me. If you want, you can rely on me." Jiang Chujing fought back the disgust and looked up in surprise. "Really?" She looked d as if she finally had somebody on her side. Li Wei looked at her tear-stained face and nodded. "Yes." "Then can you promise me not to tell anyone about it?" She just wanted to seal Li Wei''s lips. Li Wei owed a deep debt of gratitude to Li Han just as Li Had did to Jiang Chujing''s parents. Li Wei pursed his lips and said, "As long as you don''t do anything to harm Mr. Li, yes." Jiang Chujing cracked a smile, dewy-eyed, and then threw herself into Li Wei''s arms despite herself. She didn''t wrap her arms tightly around Li Wei but it was enough to make him willing to do anything for her. Out of his sight, she wiped off the fragile look and took on a triumphant smile. "Thank you, Li Wei," she said. Li Wei could never imagine that those tender words would be the beginning of all his misfortunes. When he realized it, it would be toote. Chapter 174 Chapter 174 After a night, Shu Tian didn''t get up the next morning. She finally felt the sharp pain in her back and legs as the novels described. However, he was still sleeping soundly beside her. It was 9: 30 in the morning, and the man who usually woke up at six o''clock on time actually slept in. But thinking that he didn''t want to stop and was eager for keeping doing itst night, she knew that he probably used up a lot of energy. However... she had been tortured so badly by him but he slept veryfortably! Shu Tian was upset. She looked at his face, which was extremely handsome even when he just woke up in the morning. She was in fury. In winter, her feet were quite cold. An idea shed in Shu Tian''s mind and she lifted her feet and put them on the man''s hard abs. Feeling the coldness, the man suddenly opened his eyes. His deep eyes were a little sexy andzy because he had just woken up. When he met her big cunning eyes, he frowned, "What are you doing?" The man was easy to lose his temper when he just got up. Every morning he woke up, he pulled a long face. Shu Tian usually waited for him to wash up before speaking to him to avoid provoking him. Seeing his gloomy face, she felt an inexplicable joy. Ignoring his unhappiness, she said arrogantly, "What time is it? Are you still sleeping? Rise and shine!" Seeing that he was woken up and that her goal was achieved, Shu Tian was about to move her cold little feet away from the man when they were caught by the man''s big hand under the quilt. She tried to bring them back, but before she could break free, she looked up at the man''s focused gaze. Feeling a little guilty, she swallowed, "Well, what are you doing?" Li Han stared at her for a while. He just raised his eyebrows but she thought him evil. He curled his lips silently, "I didn''t exhaust youst night, huh? You still have the strength to trick on me now." "..." Speaking ofst night, she could''t help but be furious. She recalled the painful memories. In the end, she almost begged him to let her off. But he didn''t let her off and he did not take her begging seriously at all. He was acting recklessly. Li Han felt the anger burning in her eyes and raised his hand to fondle her soft hair, "You just fainted in the middle. I won''t do it again." Fainted... Shu Tian''s face was so hot that it was almost steaming. This man rubbed it in on purpose. She was not a match for him both in speech and force. Shu Tian was beyond tears. She lifted the quilt and covered her head, "Shut up!" "Didn''t I admit my mistake to you?" As he spoke, he loosened the woman''s slender ankle and rubbed it for her, "Are you tired?" Shu Tian didn''t want to continue discussing this topic with him. Seeing that his attitude was good, she didn''t continue to condemn him, "I haven''t been to work for a few days. It''s all because of you. The leader will definitely be disappointed with meter." "Aren''t you done with your case?" "But I haven''t written the closing report yet. I should have handed it inst week. It''s been dyed a week. s..." Thinking of what she should face after she went back to thepany, Shu Tian sighed with her whole being. "The closing report is a small matter. Don''t worry about it." Li Han knew that she was serious about her work and had improved a lot during this period of time. Wei Xiangming had high expectations for her, so he could not help butfort her. Shu Tian could only think so. They were lying on the bed, dawdling until almost lunchtime. Shu Tian was about to go downstairs and tell Nanny Li to cook when Li Han stopped her, "No, let''s go out for lunch." "Ah?" Shu Tian looked at him slightly, "Are you okay?" "It''s okay." Li Han sat up from the bed. Under the soft quilt was his eight-pack abs, which were in order and full of strength, "Let''s clean up and go out." "Have you booked the restaurant?" "Yes." Seeing her surprised face, Li Han was amused, "You just need to go with me." Only then did Shu Tian enter the cloakroom with a slightly red face and face therge cab with three sides. There were thetest styles that Li Han had bought for her every season. Shu Tian carefully picked out two of them, a ck knitted dress with narrow waist, which was a V-neck style and wasn''t revealing, and a long coat with a white mink cor, which looked warm but not too bloated. After she was dressed, she walked out and stood in front of the man. She whirled, "How about I was on this?" Li Han was shaving. This man didn''t like electric razors so he used the de. Every time she saw him N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. bend over to shave carefully, her heart beat wildly. The man looked at her from top to bottom and praised her generously, "Nice." "Really?" Shu Tian smiled and her eyes were like crescent, looking so cute that he wanted to kiss her. Li Han did kiss her. He grabbed the back of her neck and leaned over. There was still some white shaving foam on his lips, and a lot of it rubbed against her chin and side face. Shu Tian turned her head with disgust, "You haven''t finished shaving yet..." Li Han felt warm when he looked at her disgusted face. He wanted to take her to the pool and give her a big kiss, but he held back in the end. They still had to go out. If he lost control again, their n would probably be broken again. After they cleaned up, they went to the garage to drive. Shu Tian looked down at her phone and subconsciously walked towards the Bentley. She pulled the door twice and failed to open it. She turned to look at the man behind her, "Why didn''t you unlock it?" Li Han was in a dark gray casual suit without button, which was loose-fitting. It was the fashion style of the D Brand this year. The straight woolen nine-length pants were just up to his ankles, and there were two thin edges in the bottom, bringing out his long legs. He pointed to Aston Martin beside him, "Get on this one." Shu Tian looked at the metallic Aston Martin sports car and was a little surprised, "Do you want to drive this one?" "Yes." Li Han walked over and opened the door for her, "Please get in, Miss Shu." Shu Tian froze and almost didn''t know how to walk. After getting into the car, she looked at the crazy interior and sighed, "Why are you choose the grandiose car today?" He rarely drove sports cars but used to drive sedan cars or SUV. It was really surprising that he chose a sports car that was so light in color today. Li Han started the car skillfully and looked sideways, "Don''t you like it?" "I like it." Shu Tian looked around curiously. How could she not like it? Everyone had a crazy heart. It was good to indulge asionally. He drove the car out of the underground garage, and the roar of the engine made Shu Tian excited. She urged Li Han to open the hood. He did as he said, and the wind outside blew in, raising the hair in her forehead, making her unable to help reaching out to touch it. Half an hourter, the car stopped in front of a very private French restaurant. Li Han stopped the car, told her to get off first, and drove the car into the garage. Shu Tian stood there for a while, but he didn''te. Just as she was about to call and ask him, a waiter who was in a vest and a bow suddenly came over and respectfully greeted her, "Miss Shu, your gift." A ck square velvet gift box was ced in front of her. Shu Tian pointed at herself, "My gift?" "Yes." She took it suspiciously. When she opened the golden sp, inside the box was a delicate little crystal ball with a small arrow pointing straight ahead. Shu Tian looked in the direction and she was touched in an instant. She finally understood what was going on... Chapter 175 Chapter 175 Was it a surprise he had prepared in advance? No wonder that he suggested going out for dinner in the morning and he drove such a cheesy sports car. Shu Tian walked forward. After entering the restaurant, a waiter gave her a small box. When she opened it, there was another crystal ball of a different style. The arrow inside pointed at the left. Way after way, a waiter came forward and give her another crystal ball. From the hall to the first floor, from the first floor to the second floor, Shu Tian was bing nervous and excited as she walked. Finally, the crystal ball led her to the entrance of the restaurant''s roof terrace. In front of the elegant and heavy wooden door, she hesitated to push the door for a long time. Apart from a thinyer of sweat on her palms, her heart was trembling with nervousness. "Whoosh..." After a long silence and a long breath, Shu Tian plucked up the courage to push the door open. With a creak, all behind the door was revealed. The roof terrace wasrge, but it was not really open-air. There was ayer of transparent ss above her head. On the one hand, it isted the cold wind outside; on the other hand, it made the terrace cleaner. He had covered the dark marble floor with a beige carpet. There was a long row of small European the top of the ss at the end of the carpet. A long dark table was filled with candlesticks and golden cutleries decorated with white roses. Around the terrace, champagne balloons were flying against the ss ceiling, at the string end of which were tied to a lot of her photos. She didn''t even remember when they were photographed. Shu Tian was shocked and speechless. She had never expected that he would do this for her. She looked around foolishly and even forgot to react. It was like a fairytale he had set up for her, which was very gentle and precious. "Do you like it?" A deep and maic voice came from behind, and then she saw a tall figureing out of a corner. Looking at Shu Tian''s surprised eyes, Li Han could not remain calm. His heart was pounding violently, which made him feel like fresh life. Thinking of what he was going to say next, Li Han''s throat was a little dry. He tried to hold the calmness on his face and reached out to her. He was inviting her. Shu Tian held his hand with great anticipation. The moment their fingertips touched, they seemed to share the same thoughts. They had done more intimate things before, but at that moment, just holding hands made Li Han feel more touched. He smiled at her, and with all his tenderness and affection, he turned around and led her forward. Shu Tian followed him at every step and waspletely led by him. Walking to a round table, he took a bouquet of flowers prepared in advance from the chair. It was neither toorge nor too delicate. The white orchids with light yellow luster were dotted with four long green leaves, and the middle branches were wrapped in beigece gauze, which looked exquisite and elegant. He let go of her hand and handed her the bouquet. At the same time, he took out a small square box from his pocket. There was no logo on it, only a velvet ribbon. Shu Tian was so overwhelmed by the surprises that she had no idea about what was inside. When she opened it, she found it was a diamond ring. In the snowke style, there were six diamond ws, with a one-carat main diamond in the middle and a circle of auxiliary diamonds iid around, which was so dazzling even not under strong light that she could not move her eyes away. The light reflected from the sharp cut of the ring made her momentarily dazed, unable to tell whether it was reality or fantasy, "You..." "Don''t speak. Listen to me." He interrupted her, speaking a little fast. It was not hard to see that he was also nervous. "You always said that you wanted to escape from this rtionship, that you didn''t have a sense of security and didn''t know how far we can go. I was used to self-protection in a rtionship. I didn''t give you a sense of security and what you wanted in the past, which was my negligence. We have been together for only half a year. But for me, the past six months have been a breakthrough from zero to a hundred. We''ve had ups and downs, which has strengthened my belief. Shu Tian, I love you. This ring was reserved for you. If you wear it, you can''t take it off." There was a slight tremor and anxiousness in N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. his deep voice. His dark eyes mirrored that she appeared helpless but deeply moved. Shu Tian looked at the man standing in front of her. His movements were so elegant, and his eyes were so intent on her. It was as if she was the only one in his eyes in the world, making her feel like she was cherished. she didn''t know when she felt this way thest time. Over the years, she had been too tired. Her heart and her body were tired. She had no desire for such romance. She didn''t expect that he would be willing to do it. Tears streamed down her cheeks, leaving a glistening mark. If he hadn''t wiped the tears for her, she wouldn''t have realized that she was crying. How long had she waited for such a scene? She had always been looking forward to it and almost thought that it would never happen in her life. Li Han affectionately looked at her eyes blurred with tears. She looked so beautiful even when she cried. He lowered his head and took the ring out of the box. He pulled her fair left hand and was about to put the ring on her finger, but stopped at her fingertips. He looked up at her and asked, "Are you willing to wear it?" Shu Tian nodded without thinking, her voice trembling slightly because of the excitement, "I do!" He smiled and finally pushed the ring to the bottom of her ring finger. It was just the right size. Seeing that there was a ring between her fingers, she felt a different emotion surging in her heart as if they would always be together like this. Li Han reached out and pulled her into his arms. His thin lipsnded on top of her head with a gentle kiss, "What a relief. You couldn''t run away from now on." Her tears changed to smiles. The tears fell onto his expensive suit, and her heart was filled with sweetness, "When did you prepare for these..." "When you came to see me at the hospital." At that time, he thought she would never see her when he opened his eyes. However, she had been by his side all the time, took good care of him, and forgave him for his deception, which made Li Han feel moved and guilty. He had done so little for her that he did not dare to face her in the past. Now that he had decided to marry her, there was nothing to hold back. Shu Tian couldn''t help but put her hand over her mouth. It turned out that he had been preparing so long ago, but she didn''t notice it at all. Just as Shu Tian was deep in thought, the door behind her opened again, and steady footsteps sounded behind. She turned around and saw Ling Junze, Ji Chuanyi, Pei Yu, and Tian Sangsang walking to her together. "You, when did you..." Chapter 176 Chapter 176 "It''s rare for Li Han to be romantic. How couldn''t we be here?" Pei Yu walked over with his hands in his pockets. His beautiful face was full of happiness perhaps due to the harmonious atmosphere. Ling Junze nced at him. "Not us but you." "Oops! What a heartless man!" Seeing the flowers and rings in Shu Tian''s hands, Pei Yuined. "Stop being lovey-dovey!" Ji Chuanyi who stood aside said jokingly to them, "Congrattions." He seemed that he was going to marry Li Han. Tian Sangsang was the only one who looked normal. Looking at Shu Tian''s happy expression, she was happy. Especially the ring on Shu Tian''s hand. It was so beautiful that people couldn''t bear to look away. Shu Tian knew that he probably wanted to give her a surprise, so he called for everyone to witness this, which was enough to show how serious he was about this matter. After greeting, they sat down. Li Han sat at the host seat, and Shu Tian sat next to him. They had been friends for so many years, and they didn''t care about the seats and sat wherever they wanted. Soon, the waiter served the food. The French food was famous for its borate arrangement and smaller portion size, but there were many kinds. As a 3-star Michelin Restaurant in J City, the taste was really good. With white wine, it was even more enjoyable. "Didn''t we say before that who would be the first to get engaged? I thought Chuanyi would be the first. I didn''t expect it to be Li Han. Ling Junze, you''re right." Pei Yu remembered that they had made a bet. Two years had passed in a sh, he never thought that Li Han would be the first to get married. After all, in his eyes, Li Han was mature and steady like a big brother, but he was kind of ruthless and indifferent at the same time. Few girls could stand him. What was worse, he didn''t give them chances. Nobody expected that Shu Tian who came from nowhere tamed him. At the thought of this, Pei Yu felt a little ufortable. "s, I didn''t expect Li Han who is so cool to get married." He sighed twice as if it was really a pity. Li Han looked at him with fierceness in his eyes. Hearing this, Shu Tian blushed and felt that everyone was deliberately making fun of her. For a moment, she didn''t know how to face this and found a reason to take off. "I gotta use the bathroom." She took the napkin off herp and got up to leave. Tian Sangsang echoed, "Let''s go together." Looking at the back of the women who left in a hurry, Li Han helplessly turned up his mouth and looked at Pei Yu with a smile in his eyes. "Shu Tian is shy. Be careful what you say." "What did I say?" Pei Yu looked innocent and exaggeratedly hugged Ling Junze''s arm. "Look at Li Han. He defends his woman before they get married and stops me from joking." Ling Junze pulled his arm back and red at him angrily. "Not everyone is like you who is thick-skinned and never blushes?" "Hey, you guys!" Pei Yu sat down and stopped talking when he found that all of them were targeting him. Ling Junze and Li Han looked at each other. Ji Chuanyi suddenly interjected, "But to be honest, look at what you have done, you are serious about Shu Tian?" Li Han did not speak. He held the crystal cup on the table with one hand and put one hand on his leg naturally. Even he was outside, he sat as elegantly as a gentleman. But the tenderness in his eyes had exined everything. He gave her the diamond ring and confessed his love for her. He must have thought it through. Ji Chuanyi said suddenly, "When are you going to get married?" Li Han looked at him with amusement. "No hurry. It''s early." Although he had chosen Shu Tian in his heart, marriage was not a matter of two persons. His seniors had a great prejudice against Shu Tian. He had best to think over how to change their views. [...] In the bathroom, Shu Tian stood in front of the sink and squeezed the hand sanitizer to wash her hands after using a toilet. She suddenly thought of the ring on her finger and she was afraid that it would get dirty. She dipped it in water, took it off, and put it aside. After washing her hands, she put it on again. Tian Sangsang looked at her and thought she was cute. "The diamond ring won''t wear out so easily. It''s not necessary to take it off." Of course, Shu Tian knew that. She cherished it because today was the first day she wore it. So she couldn''t bear to see it get dirty. "Please excuse me.." Tian Sangsang smiled and shook her head, with some envy in her tone. "Mr. Li is so nice to you." He was a proud man but he was willing to swallow his pride and did this for her. Other women would envy her. Although many women wanted to get close to him, she enjoyed his sole gentleness. Shu Tian was embarrassed by what she said so she changed the topic. "How''s the hospital going Talking to work, Tian Sangsang had a lot to say. "I''m okay to be busy, you know what..." She lowered her voice, moved closer, and said, "Doctor Ling has been moody recently, which makes me panic." Moody? Ling Junze? "No way." The word was suitable for Li Han but not for Ling Zunze, it was weird. In her heart, among Li Han and his best friends, only Ling Lunze was considered warm people. Property ? N?velDrama.Org. "You don''t know. He is very picky at work. He always finds faults. I don''t know why he hates me." Tian Sangsang looked helpless. She seemed to suffer from a mental breakdown. Shu Tian was confused. "I think Doctor Ling likes you." Otherwise, he wouldn''t have brought Tian Sangsang to their party. Tian Sangsang didn''t understand. She sighed. "Well, maybe." Seeing that she was frowning, Shu Tian did not ask any more questions. They returned to the dining table. They almost finished the food. The men were discussing a group activity in the afternoon, bowling or golf was the first choice. Just then, Ling Junze''s phone suddenly rang. He looked at the caller and quickly picked it up. "Hey, this is Ling Junze. What? Get a bottle of yellow pills and give her two. I''ll be right there!" The sudden voice silenced everyone. He said two more words. After hanging up the phone, he suddenly stood up, looking nervous and anxious. "Li Han, we have to go to the North Vis now. Something happened to Chujing." Chapter 177 Chapter 177 Everyone''s facial expression changed slightly, especially Shu Tian''s, and the originally harmonious atmosphere disappeared. Although no one showed it directly, Shu Tian could clearly feel that they all had scruples about her position. After a few seconds of silence, Li Han stood up from the chair, reached out for the coat draped behind the chair, and exined to Shu Tian with a straight face, "Something unexpected happened. I''ll take a look ande back immediately. I''ll ask the driver to take you backter." After that, he turned to Pei Yu and Ji Chuanyi. "It seems that we can''t get together today. We''ll take a Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. rain check. You can choose the ce, and it''s on me." Both of them agreed readily. Seeing that he was about to leave, Shu Tian stood up and grabbed his arm. She said firmly with a gloomy face, "I''ll go with you." Since she knew about Jiang Chujing''s existence and the rtionship between them, there was nothing to be avoided. Li Han stopped and looked at her without saying anything as if he was thinking about something. Shu Tian held his hand down and said slowly, "I just want to follow you to see if there''s anything I can help you with. I want to be with you." As Ling Junze said, for so many years, Li Han repaid his kindness and devoted so much effort to Jiang Chujing. There was no reason to cause trouble for him at this time. Since she had chosen to ept it, she''d better not avoid it anymore. Li Han was bewildered, not expecting her to make such a request, but he was moved by her. She had already done it to this extent, so there was no reason for him to stop her. He nodded and took her hand. "Okay." Seeing the two of them leave together, Pei Yu nced sideways at Ji Chuanyi and suddenly asked, "Chuanyi, do you think Mr. Li will marry Shu Tian?" Ji Chuanyi looked up. "Why are you asking like that?" Pei Yu smiled, cynical as usual, but the expression in his eyes became serious, and he said slowly, word by word. "Because I had just thought that Mr. Li might marry Shu Tian. But now I don''t think Mr. Li will ept anyone other than Shu Tian." [...] After the four of them left the restaurant, Ling Junze and Tian Sangsang drove together, while Shu Tian and Li Han drove together towards the North Vi. When they went downstairs just now, Ling Junze briefly talked about Jiang Chujing''s current situation. She identally got cut by a knife and bled profusely. No matter what kind of feelings she had for Jiang Chujing, Shu Tian was a little worried. She wondered what disease it was that could havee to this extent. Li Han was focused on driving, and no one in the car was talking. Seeming to notice something strange in the atmosphere, he took a look at her. Seeing her nervously staring out the window, he took her hand and said in a steady voice. "It''s okay." She was worried, hoping that everything would be fine. The car sped for nearly an hour and finally arrived at the North Vi. A doctor had already rushed over, but the wound was simply cleaned and bandaged. Ling Junze rushed into the bedroom and immediately checked the wound. As soon as Shu Tian entered the room, she stopped with her eyes wide open, seeing the small pool of blood on the bed. She was bleeding a lot, at least from the appearance. She did not continue walking forward, afraid that she would not be able to ept it and that she would be in the way. Looking at Ling Junze and Li Han''s hustling back, she felt uneasy. She wished nothing bad would happen. "Han..." On the bed, Jiang Chujing smiled happily when she saw Li Haning. But the next second, when she saw Shu Tian standing behind him, her face darkened. Jiang Chujing lowered her eyelids to cover the anger in her eyes. She thought Shu Tian was really thick-skinned, having the nerve toe back after knowing that she was by Li Han''s side. "Don''t talk yet." Li Han tried to calm her down. Looking at the dark red blood, he panicked. "Nothing will happen. Don''t worry." Actually, Jiang Chujing cut the wound on purpose so that he couldn''t refuse her request. She raised her hand at Li Han with all her strength. "Han, don''t go." Seeing that her arm was shaking violently, Li Han grabbed her hand. "I''m not leaving. I won''t leave." He would never go back on his word since he promised Jiang''s Parents before they died. It all came suddenly. Fortunately, Li Han had prepared theplete medical equipment before, so Ling Junze was skillful in operating it. He stopped the bleeding first, but the effect was not very good. He could only rely on the hemostatic mp for physical treatment. After all, he had to adjust the bnce of her blood system to achieve the desired effect. However, it was not easy to do it in such a short time. From the bedroom to the sterile room, it took Ling Junze almost an afternoon to finally stop the bleeding. "She lost too much blood at once, which would cause an imbnce in her blood system. We need to wait for the medical report toe out before making a decision." Ling Junze gave Jiang Chujing a sedative and she fell asleep. Tian Sangsang looked a little surly, her forehead covered in sweat. "The wound should be arge area of scratches, located on the left side of his wrist. Judging from its shape, it should be scratched deliberately." "Deliberately?" Li Han frowned slightly and lowered his eyebrows. "That''s right," Ling Junze looked meaningfully at Jiang Chujing on the sickbed in the sterile room. "She should have done it herself." As soon as he said that, Shu Tian was a little shocked. She couldn''t understand why she did this. "Don''t worry. You can ask the exact reason when she wakes up." Ling Junze patted Li Han on the shoulder. "When will the physical examination reporte out?" "In an hour." He took off his istion suit and waved his phone. "I''ll go talk to George." After Ling Junze left, Li Han took the opportunity to sit on the sofa outside the sterile room, looking a little upset with a sullen face. Tian Sangsang looked at the two of them and turned to leave them alone. Looking at him with his hands on his legs and his head lowered, Shu Tian felt bad. She walked up to him in a few steps. Standing while he was sitting, she reached out and pulled him into her arms. She Li Han propped his face with both hands, almost burying his good-looking face in his palm. "Tian, I''m so tired..." Chapter 178 Chapter 178 Feeling his helplessness and worry, Shu Tian hugged him even tighter and said soothingly, "I know. If I can bear it any longer, it will be over." What she said was not helpful at all considering how much Li Han had suffered all these years. N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. The two of them hugged each other, wordless. There was no need for them to express themselves in words. In the sterile room separated by a wall, Jiang Chujing was sleeping soundly under the influence of tranquilizer. She failed to see Li Han''s struggle and pain, but selfishly wanted everything she wanted. At 5: 30 pm, Jiang Chujing''s blood analysis and physical examination report came out, and Ling Junze printed two copies of them, one of which was given to Li Han. "She''s not in very good condition from loss of blood, and her immune system''s function is also declining. Her own blood system doesn''t have the normal repair function, and the number of blood cells is also declining. If this condition were to continue, it will be more dangerous for her." Li Han looked at the numbers on it, some of which were not strange to him after years of reading. After a few seconds of silence, he asked in a cold voice, "Is there any danger to her life?" The room suddenly quieted down, and even Shu Tian felt a little breathless. No one could answer this question, including Ling Junze. After a long silence, Ling Junze put the report back on the table and said, "Whether it will endanger your life depends on how the recovery goes, but in this case, there is a possibility." There was another silence. Just as Shu Tian was about to go out for a breath of air, the prompt on the table rang. Ling Junze stood up immediately. "She''s awake. Go and have a look." Shu Tian stood up as well, but as soon as she reached the door, she was stopped by Ling Junze. "Shu Tian, don''t go in yet. She just woke up. I''m afraid she''ll be overexcited at the sight of you." Would Jiang Chujing be excited to see her? Shu Tian frowned. Although she didn''t feelfortable with his words, she didn''t insist on going. All the patients were important. Li Han nodded at her and turned to leave. Fortunately, there was a voice-activated monitor in the office, and she could see what was going on in the ward. The three of them put on their istion clothes and entered the sterile room. Led by Li Han, Ling Junze and Tian Sangsang went there. Seeing theme in, Jiang Chujing put on a fragile smile and opened her mouth to apologize. "I''m sorry." Ling Junze nced at the value on the instrument beside him. "How do you feel?" "It hurts." Jiang Chujing''s voice too so soft to be heard without listening carefully. "You''ve lost too much blood, and it''s expected. If the pain is unbearable, just tell me and I''ll give you a painkiller shot," said Ling Junze patiently. As a doctor, he must treat all patients equally. Jiang Chujing nodded and slowly turned to Li Han. When he saw his sharp ck eyes, she felt uneasy. "Han..." Li Han pulled over the chair beside the bed and sat down, looking less aggressive. "How did you get the wound?" Jiang Chujing was at a loss what to say, but fortunately, she was not too flustered for she had already prepared her lines. She looked at Tian Sangsang and said weakly, "I... It''s all my fault. You quarreled with Shu Tian at the vi that day, and then I didn''t see you call. I thought you quarreled because of me. I didn''t want to see you sad. You''ve already done so much for me. I did a lot of thinking during the week on my ce, and I felt especially sorry for you. So... I..." She paused and burst into tears as if she had suffered a great grievance. "I didn''t want to cause so much trouble for everyone. I just felt so bad..." Hearing her words, everyone present did not know how tofort her, including Shu Tian who felt that as if she was the one who caused the scene. Because of her sudden arrival, her misunderstanding, she felt so guilty that she wanted to die? Shu Tian did not know whether this was true or not, but she was willing to believe it. After all, Li Han went all out to get her treated. There was no reason for her to disappoint him. "Chujing, your body doesn''t allow you to make such a decision easily. A little carelessness will waste everything. You''d been in A Country for five years. I don''t want to have another five years without you." It was the first time Li Han had spoken to her in such a serious tone about her illness. Usually, he had been fall in with her wishes as much as possible, but this crossed his bottom line. Jiang Chujing looked at him nkly, wondering what he meant by that. "Han, how, how can you say that..." "I hope you value it. It took some effort for you to get better. Do you want to go back to where you started?" Li Han looked at the weak man lying on the bed. Apart from his heartache and nervousness, he felt a little impatient for the first time. No one would not be impatient. Such hard cooperation ended in failure because of the patient himself. Jiang Chujing said in confusion, "I just don''t want you to be in a difficult position. I..." "If you don''t want Mr. Li to be in trouble, you should take care of yourself. Since you know that Mr. Li has done so much for you, you should get better quickly and be independent, instead of feeling sad and sorry for yourself." Tian Sangsang chimed in. She had never seen Jiang Chujing a few times, and they were not involved too much. Therefore, her feelings for her were more direct. She was very weak, but she did not have any desire to get better quickly. Instead, she was always treating herself as a patient. This mentality was not good for her recovery. Her words were unexpected to Jiang Chujing. She was speechless for a moment and asked softly, "What do you know..." "I don''t understand your feelings, but as a doctor, if you don''t want good treatment, you can just give up. But please don''t do that to yourself while receiving treatment. This is not only unfair to yourself, but also to everyone." Tian Sangsang''s words were resounding, and every word of her was a blow to Jiang Chujing. She suddenly became agitated and the figure on the instrument was soaring. Ling Junze suddenly frowned and pulled her out. "What the hell are you doing!" He scolded, "Did I tell you to forget your personal feelings in front of the patient? What were you doing?" Tian Sangsang felt a tremendous pressure on her chest. Instead of swallowing her anger as usual, she retorted, "I don''t think I''m wrong!" Chapter 179 Chapter 179 "Then do you think you''re right?" Ling Junze looked at Tian Sangsang coldly. "You''re a surgeon, not a psychiatrist. You just need to talk to the patients about their condition. What are you going to do if Jiang Chujing breaks down due to what you have said?" "She won''t." "It''s possible." Seeing that she did not repent at all, he was rather upset. "You can go back first." After that, he turned around and was about to return to the sterile room. Yet Tian Sangsang grabbed his arm. For the first time, she asked, "Why should I leave?" He paused, looked at her stubborn face, and said cruelly, "There''s no need for an unprofessional doctor here." Unprofessional? It had been nearly half a year, and that was what he thought of her. She had always tried to be perfect at work, not only because she was his junior, but also because she wanted to get the recognition of this established expert in the medical field. However, because of what she said to the patient just now, her effort was totally negated by him. Disappointment, sadness, powerlessness mixed with an inexplicable feeling surging in her heart. At this moment, her pent-up emotions exploded. It was clearly not a big deal, but she felt quite aggrieved and angry. What did she do wrong? She felt frustrated that she was remarked as an unprofessional doctor by him. After seeing her reddened eyes, he couldn''t remain his usual calmness and coldness. He frowned. Was she... crying? Just as he was about to speak, she didn''t give him the chance and ran away. Looking at the figure that had disappeared from his sight, he clenched his hands, and wanted to chase after her. However, he paused. There was still a lot of work to doter, so he had no time tofort her. [...] In the ward, Jiang Chujing looked at the man sitting at the bedside. After being berated by Tian Sangsang, she didn''t dare to say anything. She was afraid that if she said something he didn''t want to hear, it would backfire. Although Li Han didn''t me her, she just felt that the way he looked at her had changed. He was worried and care for her, but she detected that there was something missing. "Don''t do that again in the future." His cold tone made her clearly feel his resistance to this matter. She then secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but still, she put on a pitiful look. "I''m sorry, Han. I just feel bad and I don''t know what to do. I live here alone now. I used to havepany from George and other doctors, but now I''m alone. I''m really prone to overthink and get depressed." "Chujing, no matter what happened, you only have one life. If your parents were still alive, they wouldn''t want to see this." He rarely mentioned her parents, but now he mentioned them, which showed how scared he was. "I know, but I''m afraid I won''t be able to control myself..." She looked at him. "Han, I don''t know what''s wrong with me. There''re many confused, foolish reflections when I am alone." After calmly hearing her words, he then said, "I''ll invite a psychiatrist over. She can keep you apany..." "I don''t want a psychiatrist." She refused without thinking and her tone became a little aggressive. "I don''t want strangers to see me like this!" Ever since she got this strange disease, she was no longer the beautiful and charming girl she used to be, but a haggard, crazy patient! "Chujing..." He tried to talk her over. Yet she interrupted him and said awkwardly, "I have an unkind invitation. I don''t know how to tell you. Actually, I don''t want to say it, but my current situation is really unwell. I don''t know if I will hurt myself next time, so..." He was not surprised by her request. Over the years, it had be a subconscious habit for him to satisfy her. "Just tell me." "Anyway, the North Vis is sorge. I wonder if you can move in with Miss Shu. It''s more convenient if we live closer. Besides, if you stay together with me every day, she won''t be so guarded against me..." "No!" Before she could finish, he refused directly. His knitted brows showed the annoyance in his heart. "I won''t disturb you. I just want someone to apany me." She said as if she was merely asking for a small favour. At this time, Shu Tian heard their conversation in the office and couldn''t help but frown. Jiang Chujing was always full of tricks. Moving in? What was she thinking? She was already thirty years old. Didn''t she know if it was appropriate? Shu Tian looked nervously at Li Han, afraid that he would agree, but fortunately, he did not. "This is not a small matter. And even if we move in, it may not help your recovery." Being rejected by him over and over again, Jiang Chujing felt disappointed, but she refused to give up easily. Since she had proposed it, she must fight for it. Otherwise, she did not know when she could see him the next time. "But I don''t want to participate in the treatment at all..." She said it pitifully, as if the whole world had abandoned her. "Even if I''m cured, I have lost my family. What''s the point?" "Chujing!" He raised his voice, bing helpless and confused about her current attitude. With the intense gaze, he said, "You''ve changed a lot." Instantly, her heart thumped. Afraid that he would notice something, she quickly lowered her head and whispered, "You too." They were speechless for a moment. Even the dust floating in the air seemed to weigh a thousand kilograms. Even though they were in the same room, yet their hearts were separated by tension and estrangement. N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. "I need to discuss it with Shu Tian. You should now focus on the treatment. Don''t do this kind of thing again. Shu Tian has no misunderstanding about you, and won''t misunderstand again." He made things clearly to her so that she could understand, see her position. How could she not understand? She still had a lot to say, but she knew very well that he was provoked now, and it was not beneficial for her to continue. She thenpromised. "Okay, go back and ask Miss Shu. If you can rest assured that I can live here alone, just forget what I just said." And he stood up and turned to leave. "Just rest now." Listening to the sound of the door closing, she also closed her eyes. She knew that there were surveince cameras in this room, so she would never reveal any of her emotions. What she wanted was not a moment of happiness, but aplete possession of Li Han! Chapter 180 Chapter 180 When Li Han came out of the bioclean room, he saw Shu Tian walking towards him. She was wearing the diamond ring he had just given her, which was shining under the light. Suddenly, a sense of guilt welled up in his heart. He walked quickly to her and hugged her. "I''m sorry." Shu Tian was shocked by his sudden apology. She didn''t want the atmosphere to be too solemn, so she smiled and patted him on the shoulder. "Why did you apologize to me? What''s wrong?" Li Han just hugged her tightly without saying anything. There were a lot of things that he was sorry for Shu Tian. He was sorry that she had just epted his confession and had to apany him to deal with those unpleasant matters. He was sorry that she would have more troubles than other couples. And he was sorry that she was so kind to him. There were so many things that he felt sorry for her. His responsibility to the Jiang family and Jiang Chujing was another kind of pressure for Shu Tian. Shu Tian was moved by his apology. She patted Li Han on the shoulder and said, "I''m fine. I understand it." But Li Han didn''t feel any better. Instead, he med himself even more. He said in a hoarse voice, "You shouldn''t have endured this." "Since I choose to be with you, I have to ept everything about you." Shu Tianforted Li Han in a soft voice. "Maybe I would have a lot of guesses and iprehensions in my mind before I was involved in this matter. But when I knew about that, I realized that it was your responsibility. I didn''t think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, I was proud that you had persevered for so long." If it were an ordinary man, or even a kind man, he probably wouldn''t have done better than Li Han. In that case, Shu Tian couldn''t bear to me Li Han. After all, he didn''t want to do that. Li Han didn''t say anything. He just hugged Shu Tian for a long time. This was the first time Shu Tian had felt Li Han''s depression. She wanted tofort him but she couldn''t. Li Han hadn''t been in a good mood all afternoon. Jiang Chujing''s condition was unstable, so Li Han couldn''t leave. He was staying outside the bioclean room until the time for dinner. Shu Tian went to the kitchen and looked around to see whether there was anything to eat. She opened the refrigerator door and found that there were a lot of fresh vegetables inside, and there were also a lot of seafood and beef in the freezer below. Time was limited and she could only make some simple food. She took a box of imported red shrimps, a few small rapes and eggs, and prepared to cook some noodles. She put the ingredients on the kitchen counter and turned to look for the knife, but she suddenly saw a man standing at the door. Shu Tian was startled and took a step back in surprise. The man was about 1.75 meters tall, having dark skin and short hair. His eyes were not big and his lips were thin. He looked very fierce. Shu Tian had never seen him before. As if sensing that Shu Tian was startled, the man stood still and looked at the vegetables on the kitchen counter. After a while, he said, "Hello, Miss Shu. I''m Li Wei, Mr. Li''s bodyguard." Bodyguard? Li Han had a few bodyguards, but Shu Tian had never seen this man before. The man immediately noticed Shu Tian''s confusion and exined, "In addition to protecting Mr. Li, I am also in charge of Miss Jiang''s affairs." Shu Tian understood why he was in the vi. She stood straight and smiled. "Sorry, I haven''t seen you before, so I was shocked just now. I hope you don''t mind." Li Wei quickly lowered his head and said, "It doesn''t matter." Shu Tian said, "Let''s have dinner together. I''m preparing to cook noodles." Hearing this, Li Wei looked at Shu Tian in shock, who was already lowering her head to wash the vegetables. Her skin was very fair and her whole body was shining. At this moment, her lowered eyebrows and eyes made people feel extremely warm. No wonder Mr. Li liked her. No man would dislike such a woman. As for the dinner... Li Wei declined politely, "I''m not hungry yet. Thank you, Miss Shu." Shu Tian knew their rules and didn''t force him. After washing the vegetables, Shu Tian fried the pan skillfully. Then she peeled the shrimps and threw them into the pot. Finishing cooking, she put the noodles into a bowl and called Li Han, "Come to the dining room to eat something. It''s time for dinner." Ten minutester, Li Han and Ling Junze entered the dining room together. Looking at the four bowls of noodles on the table, Ling Junze was slightly shocked. Without saying anything, he got to his seat and began to eat. They were busy all afternoon were very hungry now. Shu Tian asked them, "Where''s Sang?" Ling Junze paused and replied indifferently, "She has left." "Left? When did she leave? I didn''t notice that." Shu Tian had been watching the surveince video in the office but didn''t know that Sang had left. Now she realized that she really hadn''t seen Sang for a long time. "There''s something in the hospital needed to be dealt with, so I asked her to go back. A few professional doctors wille tonight. Don''t worry." Of course, Ling Junze would not say that it was he who drove Tian Sangsang away. Everyone was already exhausted now, so he should not cause more trouble. Shu Tian did not ask more. After dinner, Ling Junze went to the bioclean room to see Jiang Chujing, and there were only Li Han and Shu Tian left in the dining room. Just as Shu Tian was about to tidy the table, Li Han grabbed her wrist and said, "Don''t do that. Someone will do itter." "It''s okay. Let me do that. I can''t help you anyway." As she spoke, she reached out to take the bowl again, but Li Han grabbed her more tightly. Shu Tian frowned slightly at Li Han in confusion. Li Han looked at his watch and said in a deep voice, "You can go back first. I''ll ask the driver to send you back." "I want to stay here with you." "Shu Tian." "I want to stay here with you." Shu Tian repeated in a sobbing tone and quickly turned her face away. She didn''t want Li Han to worry about her. Li Han closed his eyes, holding her hand and saying in a depressed tone, "It''s not that I don''t want you to stay here. I''m just afraid that you''re too tired. Ling Junze and I will deal with the rest things. Can you Property ? N?velDrama.Org. wait for me at home?" Shu Tian wanted to say something, but Li Han interrupted her, "I know you won''t cause any trouble, but I''m always distracted by you if you are here. Go back and wait for me, okay?" Shu Tian bit her lip hesitantly. Li Han had just been discharged from the hospital, and he should have had a good rest for some days. However, such a thing suddenly happened. The North Vis was so far away from the Imperial Vi, and he had to go back and forth between these two ces. If she was here, Li Han would be distracted. She was unable to help him, and she even made him more tired. After a long time, Shu Tian finallypromised. Although she was a little unwilling, she understood Li Han''s mood. "Don''t stay toote. Come home early. I''ll wait for you until youe back." Li Han smiled at her and said, "Okay." Half an hourter, the driver had arrived at the door. Only then did Shu Tian know that Li Han had called the driver before he asked her to leave. Otherwise, the driver wouldn''t have arrived in half an hour. She turned round and red at Li Han angrily. Li Han was sure that she would agree to go home. Li Han raised his hand to stroke her head and said, "Honey, don''t be angry." Chapter 181 Chapter 181 Li Han touched her tenderly. When Shu Tian tilted her head to shun him, he pulled her back to wrap her with the coatpletely, "Get in the car." Shu Tian looked at the car beside him and then the man standing at the door of the vi. She didn''t want to be part with Li Han for a moment and stood on tiptoe to kiss him. Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. She kissed Li Han gently and left. Li Wei immediately looked away politely a few steps away and was shocked. The scene where they were kissing each other gently and full of love impressed Li Wei. Li Wei remembered Jiang Chujing, the weak woman lying in the sterile room and finally knew why she was mad and guessed she must feel heartbroken when seeing such a warm scene. Just as Li Wei was thinking, Li Han walked over. Li Wei quickly bent down and said respectfully, "Mr. Li!" Li Han looked at him. "What are you thinking? You''re so absorbed." "I''m sorry, I was absent-minded." Li Wei lowered his head and noticed that his forehead immediately sweated. Li Han did not ask him further and walked straight to the vi after watching the car disappear at the door of the vi. In the sterile room, Jiang Chujing had already woken up. Ling Junze''s medical team rushed over. Before they arrived, they had signed the confidentiality agreement. When the doctors and nurses in white surrounded her on the hospital bed and performed various tests back and forth, Jiang Chujing stared nkly at the ceiling and didn''t do anything. As soon as she opened her eyes, she felt like her body was jammed with medical instruments and equipment. She knew the feeling so well that she felt hopeless. Half an hourter, the medical staff were in a meeting, and Li Han was sitting at the back, along with George in the remote video. As Ling Junze told Dr. George everything that happened today in great detail in fluent English, George got more serious. The patient''s condition was more serious than George had expected. "How is she feeling now?" George asked. "Even though she was cooperative, she was very negative and in a low spirit." George was a little anxious. "She has alreadymitted suicide. I think you all need to be responsible for my patient!" As an outstanding doctor, in addition to earning more money, George also hoped that every patient could be cured and recovered. However, George was angry because Jiang Chujing would do such a thing aftering back to her homnd for a short time. George knew no one wanted to see this happen, but someone needed to be held ountable. Ling Junze frowned. "Maybe there''s another reason." "What other reason? Would she hurt herself for no reason?" George felt it was ridiculous. Li Han When everyone became solemn. Li Han, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, "She mentioned that she wanted to live with us. If we were together, would it affect her treatment?" "If it is her request, it won''t have any impact," George said seriously. "The patient''s emotions during treatment are very important. I hope you can agree to her request if..." George looked at everyone present with his dark brown eyes. "You don''t want to see anything unexpected happen." When looking at Li Han who was calm, Ling Junze could feel he had mixed feelings. Jiang Chujing''s return was still too simple as they had expected. Ling Junze had thought that she would be fine without any idents, but he did not expect such a thing. Ling Junze always had a strange feeling and would rather believe that all these were variables than intentionally. "I''ll think about it first." Li Han left the conference room. Ling Junze sighed deeply and hung up the video. The medical team stayed at the vi that night. Ling Junze still had to prepare for a surgery he booked three months ago and rushed back to the hospital to see the pathology report. Ling Junze didn''t find Li Han around the vi and called him several times. Then, Ling Junze decided to leave and asked Li Wei to convey his message to Li Han. Unexpectedly, as soon asLing Junze left the vi door, he saw Li Han smoking outside. Ling Junze paused and walked towards him. "Why aren''t you inside? It''s so cold outside." Ling Junze said worriedly when noticing Li Han stood outside in the coldest day of the year with few clothes. "You''ve just been discharged from the hospital. You''ll catch a cold and have a feverter. Shu Tian will be worried again." Li Han silently took a deep breath of smoke and felt stressed. Ling Junze sighed silently. "You don''t know how to talk to Shu Tian, do you?" Dr. George had already said that if they didn''t take any action, Jiang Chujing would die. If something happened to her, Li Han would never be able to save himself from guilt for the rest of his life. "She heard it today and didn''t mention it." knew that Shu Tian heard what Jiang Chujing said in the sterile room today. He thought Shu Tian was considerate not to mention these words and could not persuade her to ept the fact. Li Han thought this request was too unreasonable. "Why don''t I tell her?" Ling Junze finally said and wanted to help him. Li Han smiled briefly. "It''s the same method. If you tell her, why don''t I tell her directly?" Li Han chose to tell Shu Tian directly because she knew it was his decision to ask Ling Junze to tell her the whole thing. "Can you tell you?" Ling Junze was worried. "Don''t argue again." "No." Li Han denied with certainty. "She wouldn''t misunderstand me when knowing Jiang Chujing and would only amodate me. But I don''t want this oue, do you understand?" Ling Junze knew how much Li Han loved Shu Tian and could do everything for her. "It''s all ast resort. She will understand your dilemma." Ling Junzeforted. Then, Li Han smoked hard and threw the lit cigarette, and kicked out the sparking cigarette butt. Li Han clearly knew how considerate Shu Tian was. Chapter 182 Chapter 182 When Li Han returned to the vi, it was almost eleven o''clock. As he had expected, she was waiting for him. Pushing open the bedroom door, he found the wallmp was on, and she slouched on the bedside with a stack of documents in her hand. It was the case she was in charge of. By the side, her The woman who said she would go to bed only after he came back had already fallen asleep unconsciously. Her head slouched and her neck was bent in an extremely ufortable position. Li Han walked closer and took the stuff away from her hands. He leaned over to protect her neck as he slowlyid her down on the bed. He didn''t intend to wake her from her rest, but she was still awake. Shu Tian vaguely felt someone moving her, so she opened her eyes in a daze, only to see the man''s sexy jaw. She subconsciously reached out her arm to wrap around his neck, then she asked in a muffled voice, "What time is it?" "It''s almost eleven o''clock." Li Han pulled the quilt over and covered her. "Sleep properly when you''re drowsy. Does your neck hurt?" "I promised I would wait for you. Fortunately, you didn''te back veryte." Shu Tian didn''t let go of her arm as she leaned over to rub his neck affectionately like a kitten. "Are you hungry?" Li Han''s heart was bubbling with warmth hearing her question. For many years, he had been looking forward to having someone ask such a simple question when he came back from work. His tone softened. "I''m not hungry. Didn''t you cook noodles for me tonight?" "Oh yes, I forgot." Shu Tian rubbed her eyes. It seemed it had be a habit for her to care about whether he had eaten. "Go to sleep. I''ll take a shower." Seeing that she was so sleepy, Li Han could not bear to say those words to her. He never procrastinated in his work, yet it was the first time he hesitated. Shu Tian grabbed his hand. "Go and change your clothes. I''ll turn on the tap for you. You should take a good bath and rx after a tiring day." As she spoke, she was about to lift the quilt and get out of bed. Li Han pressed her shoulder, his eyes bloodshot. He didn''t go to thepany today, and his hair was casuallybed. Fortunately, his slightly long bangs were lying on his forehead, just enough to block his eyes, so that he wouldn''t be too embarrassed. "No, I''ll do it myself." Normally, Shu Tian would never take the initiative, but today... Her heart ached at the thought of what had happened in the North Vi. Especially at this moment, the way he sat by the bed with his head slouching made her heart almost stop beating. "Li Han." Shu Tian called his name seriously. "Do you have something to tell me?" After six months together, they knew each other well enough. If it was normal, he would not have shown such a heavy look when he returned home. There must be something unusual and troubling that made him wear such a wary expression. Li Han didn''t expect her to be so sensitive. He didn''t want to tell her tonight, but when she started the topic, he had to answer. Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. "Tian." He felt his throat annoyingly dry, and every word he said hurt like a de cutting into his vocal cords. After a moment of silence, he opened his mouth with difficulty. "The attending doctor in A Country suggested that Chujing should move in with us." The smile on Shu Tian''s lips froze. She wasn''t unhappy, but it was just... a little unexpected. She thought this was over, but she didn''t expect there would be any follow-up. Shu Tian was a little flustered as she had never thought that it would trouble him so much. So he handed over the decision to her now? Did she have a choice? Shu Tian didn''t know. She just didn''t know how to answer him, and evenforting words stuck in her throat. Li Han perceived the bewilderment and embarrassment in her eyes and stroked her delicate face with his big palm. "Tian, if you don''t agree, I can think of another way topromise." "What way?" She looked over with her big clear eyes and stricken Li Han speechless. What way... If it could be solved so easily, how could he fall into the dilemma as he did now? "Are you... going to move to live there and leave me alone here?" Shu Tian smiled wryly after saying that. It was ridiculous enough just when she imagined it. "No." Li Han held her little face and stopped her from wandering thoughts. "I won''t leave you alone." Listening to his promise, Shu Tian was not happy. The more he wanted to make both sides happy, the more he needed to cater to the needs of both of them. Also, he would be more tired when he was sandwiched in the middle. If he wanted topromise, he could only run back and forth. ording to Jiang Chujing''s current situation, it was impossible for Jiang Chujing topromise. Then the only one who couldpromise was her. However generous and considerate Shu Tian was, she didn''t want her man to live with another woman. She believed in Li Han, but she didn''t know Jiang Chujing well enough. She felt that it was just the beginning. Once Jiang Chujing moved in, there would be inevitable frictions between them. But in this case, if she didn''t allow Jiang Chujing to move in, what would Li Han do if anything happened to her? There was always one side that had to take a step back and sacrifice a little. If it was for him... Shu Tian sighed and looked up at the man beside her. She secretly made up her mind and said before she regretted it, "If it''s for the treatment, let her live here." Hearing her, even Li Han, ever the unperturbed one, could not hide his astonishment. "Do you know what it means to live in?" "I know." Shu Tian curled her lips in dismay. "Although I''m unwilling to, she is your nominal sister and has such a disease. I can still tell what is urgent and important." "Tian..." Shu Tian''s eyes warmed up and she raised her hand to cover his mouth. "Stop talking, lest I would want to eat back my word soon." Li Han pulled her hand off and kissed it gently. "You can go back on your word." "That''s easy to say. I don''t have any reason to go back on my word." Shu Tian stared deeply into the man''s unfathomable eyes as if to see through his heart. "Let''s work together. When she gets better, we won''t have to worry so much." Her words were like a punch to Li Han''s heart, annihting all his pessimistic and negative thoughts at this moment. She said that they would work together and wait for Jiang Chujing to recover. She had said that, and why should he still be dejected? Li Han was so moved, and he reached out to hold her in his arms. He, Li Han, had never loved anyone in 32 years. He didn''t know anything else, but he knew that as long as he was alive one day in his life, he would not disappoint Shu Tian. [...] When the news reached Jiang Chujing''s ears, she was swift in her move. The next night, she packed up and went to the Imperial Vi. Li Wei personally drove her there. Before getting into the car, Li Wei took her luggage off at the North Vi. When he got to thest one, Jiang Chujing suddenly blocked his way. Li Wei paused and looked at the woman in confusion. It was at this moment that Jiang Chujing made an incredible move. She kissed him on the cheek! Li Wei took a big step back and raised his hand to cover the ce where her lips touched. "Chu, Chujing..." Chapter 183 Chapter 183 Jiang Chujing looked as usual. She acted as intimate as an old friend for many years, "Thank you for taking care of me during this period of time. I may have to trouble you in the future. I have nothing to give you. That kiss was a token of gratitude. In A Country, it is a courtesy to close friends." Her words made the kiss so normal as if it was a mere act of giving thanks. Li Wei suddenly felt himself blush. He was ashamed of his suspicion just now, but he could no longer calm down. He had a good impression of Jiang Chujing. The first time he saw this weak woman at the airport, he had the urge to protect her. When they got close, he unconsciously paid more attention to her. Just Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. now, the kiss made his heart almost go out of his chest. Li Wei didn''t even dare to look at her and hurried out of the vi with the luggage. As Li Han had reported to the security guards in the vi in advance, Li Wei drove the car, unimpeded by anyone, into the front yard of the vi. An elderly woman stood at the door of the vi. Jiang Chujing felt a little surprised. She had never heard Li Han mention that there was someone else at home. Who was that woman? "Chu... Miss Shu, here we are." Li Wei subconsciously called her Chu Jing. Realizing that the location was not appropriate, he quickly changed his words. Jiang Chujing always appreciated such people as Li Wei who was reasonable, and she got out of the car. Unexpectedly, it was starting to drizzle. Nanny Li quickly put an umbre above Jiang Chujing''s head, "Are you Miss Jiang?" Jiang Chujing looked at Nanny Li carefully. She was sure that it was someone she had never seen before. Instead of introducing herself, she asked first, "Who are you?" Nanny Li was bewildered and exined, "My name is Li Lanfang. I''m a nanny of Mr. Li''s house." "Servant..." Jiang Chujing nodded. However, her unintentional words made Nanny Li a little embarrassed. Why did she call her servant? How could she be so impolite? Anyway, she should call her nanny. However, she did not dare to show it on the face. After all, she was working here, the master and servant were different. Nanny Li weed Jiang Chujing into the house. Shu Tian and Li Han went downstairs from the second floor. They were wearing pajamas, both in dark blue. At first nce, they looked like a couple. Although she had mentally prepared, when Jiang Chujing actually saw them, she could not help but feel sad. They had lived together, and everything should have happened. When she imagined how close Li Han was to another woman, and something that he had never done to her, she felt as if hundreds of ants were crawling in her heart... Jiang Chujing lowered her eyebrows and tried to calm herself down. She must not reveal her emotions. "Mr. Li, Miss Jiang''s luggage is here." Li Wei moved all the luggage into the house, and his eyes did not linger on Jiang Chujing at all. Li Han nodded, "You must be tired. You can go home now." Li Wei tightened his grip on the car keys and took a step forward, "Mr. Li, when should Ie back?" "I''ll inform you." "Okay." Li Wei turned around, ncing at Jiang Chujing unintentionally, but his eyes quickly moved away and he left. Soon, the noise of the car engine came from the yard. Knowing that he had left, Jiang Chujing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She looked up at the man who was walking towards her. She had the excitement of going home and called him with a smile, "Han!" "Now you are back," Li Han handed her a mask, "Put it on first. The lights may be a bit too harsh. I''ll get someone to change them tomorrow." It had only been five minutes since she entered the house, and her cheeks were turning red. Jiang Chujing put on the mask and a pair of eyes were exposed. It was not hard to see that she was in a good mood with a smile in her eyes, "Han, I do apologize for troubling you. Don''t detest me." Her tone was very intimate, like a family member for a long time, but she didn''t dare to call Li Han brother. Shu Tian stood by and watched them. Jiang Chujing had not taken the initiative to greet her, and she was afraid of being abrupt if she interjected, as if she was a neglected outsider. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that Nanny Li was going to carry luggage. She was so old that it would be difficult for her. Shu Tian stepped forward and took it from her hand, "Nanny Li, take that little one. I''ll take this upstairs." In fact, they were only three pieces of luggage, two big suitcases, and one small suitcase. "How can it be!" Nanny Li refused to let go of the suitcase, "I love to work. It''s okay. Miss Shu, please give it to me..." Neither of them gave in. Suddenly, a shadow came over their heads, followed by a warm hand covering the back of their hands, and then the suitcase was gone. He held the suitcase in his big strong hand. The suitcase looked so heavy just now, but now as light as a feather in his hand. Shu Tian eximed heartily, "You are indeed the man who gets up at six every morning to do exercises!" Then she gave him a thumbs-up sign. Nanny Li was amused by her. She turned around and secretly pursed her lips. Li Han raised his eyebrows. As if to repay her praise, he used the empty hand to lift the small one and went upstairs. Shu Tian couldn''t help but chuckle and caught Nanny Li''s eye. Jiang Chujing watched Li Han going upstairs. As if she had just remembered Shu Tian, she leaned over and greeted her, "Hello, Miss Shu. I''m Jiang Chujing. We have met before. Han and I have been childhood sweethearts." Childhood sweethearts? Shu Tian slightly bit her lips and smiled, "Hello, I''m Li Han''s girlfriend." Jiang Chujing didn''t expect her to be so straightforward. Her eyshes trembled and she brushed back her hair behind her ears, "I saw you had a good rtionship with Han. I haven''t heard him mention you before. I hope you don''t mind." "I don''t mind," Shu Tian hastened to exin, "I''m just introducing myself." If she really took offense at her words, it meant that she did think a lot. Jiang Chujing smiled and said nothing more. While Li Han was going downstairs, they stopped talking. After the luggage was carried up, Jiang Chujing''s room was arranged in a guest room at the end of the corridor. The room wasrge and quiet, suitable for a patient to recuperate. Although Jiang Chujing was not satisfied, she could notin too much and had to live there. Nanny Li had already cleaned the room. The furniture was new, and the clothes were new, enough for her daily wear. While unpacking the luggage, Jiang Chujing suddenly took out a ball of a dark gray object from the Then she gave it to Li Han and said softly, "When I felt bored in the North Vis, I used to knit to kill the time. I didn''t celebrate your birthday this year. I just wanted to knit you a scarf. But it''s a little ugly." Chapter 184 Chapter 184 Shu Tian''s eyes flickered as she looked at the scarf in Jiang Chujing''s hand, hardly able to maintain the decent smile on her face. Was she too sensitive? She had just arrived for the first day, but what did she mean to introduce herself as Li Han''s childhood sweetheart and gift him a handmade scarf? If she indeed treated Li Han as her brother, why was she so indifferent to her sister-inw? Those negative emotions that Shu Tian had suppressed in her heart were stirring up again because of these words. She couldn''t see through Jiang Chujing and was a little upset. As if sensing Shu Tian''s emotions, Li Han did not take it and put it on. Instead, he took it in his hand and examined it carefully. He said calmly, "Thank you. You''re not in good health, so don''t do this again. Take care of yourself and have enough rest." Shu Tian''s mental scale, which had just begun to tilt, was straightened a little by his words. She nced at him from the corner of her eye. Hmph, he was fortunate that he had taken a firm stance. Jiang Chujing was a little embarrassed, but she didn''t importune him to wear it. She knew that she was a neer and shouldn''t arouse Li Han''s disgust, so she had to endure it. Anyway, there was still plenty of time in the future. She wasn''t in a hurry. After arranging a new room, it was not early. Shu Tian and Li Han went back to the master bedroom and were about to rest. Shu Tian took her pajamas for change to the bathroom and took a shower, while Li Han was in the bedroom reading some documents on his phone. Jiang Chujing moved in, but he didn''t have to be at home all the time, and there would be some unnecessary trouble. Although he had reassured Shu Tian verbally, he knew deep in his heart that Jiang Chujing did have some ulterior feelings for him. In that case, he needed to avoid her when possible. At this moment, a loud scream suddenly came from outside the door. Li Han frowned, put away his phone, and walked out of the bedroom in a few steps. Obviously, Nanny Li heard it too, as she also went up to the second floor and knocked on the door of the guest room. "Miss Jiang, are you okay?" No one responded inside the door. Afraid of any potential ident, Li Han walked over quickly. "Chujing?" There was still no response from inside, not even a single sound. Li Han''s heart sank and he was about to open the door with a slight force on his wrist. Nanny Li quickly blocked his arm and whispered, "Mr. Li, Miss Jiang is ady. Let me go in and take a look first." From Nanny Li''s perspective, this Miss Jiang was not that pleasant and amiable, perhaps it was because she had met Shu Tian first, or perhaps she had a preference for Shu Tian. She shouldn''t have gone too far to stop him, but thinking of Miss Shu, she still took the initiative to do it. Li Han did a double-take to nod. "Okay." Inside the room, Jiang Chujing stood at the bathroom door, unable to hear the conversation outside. Seeing that the door was pushed open bit by bit, she quickly turned to look at herself in the mirror, who was only wrapped in arge white towel from the armpit to the middle of the thigh, with the rest of the body exposed. Her freshly washed hair was still draped over her shoulders with water droplets. Although she was really skinny, she was a woman after all, and it was impossible for her not to look seductive at all. She couldn''t help but feel excited and sheepish at the thought of being seen by Li Hanter. A cool wind blew from behind as the door was pushed open. Jiang Chujing felt someonee in and turned around expectantly but froze when she saw the person. Nanny Li was also stricken speechless by her state and thought to herself that fortunately, it was her that came in, or else the matter was likely to beplicated... "Miss Jiang, what happened?" While Nanny Li was speaking, she had already diverted her eyes away to politely avoid looking at her, which made Jiang Chujing appear like a narcissistic fool. She pursed her lips and looked behind Nanny Li. She knew that Li Han was outside, but he didn''te in. Jiang Chujing secretly clenched her fists and pointed to the bathroom in feigned panic. "I was taking a shower just now when the water suddenly became very cold. I was shocked." Nanny Li nodded. "Then let me take a look..." As she spoke, Nanny Li walked to the bathroom without looking at her all the way. When she passed beside Jiang Chujing, she kindly reminded her, "Miss Jiang, put on your clothes first. It''s cold these days. Don''t catch a cold." She raised her voice deliberately so that Li Han outside the door could hear her and wouldn''t identally enter to see a half-dressed Jiang Chujing. Jiang Chujing had intended to dy for a while longer, but when she heard Nanny Li say that, she reluctantly found a white cotton pajama from the closet and changed into it. There was a lot of water on the bathroom floor, and some even sshed on the floor at the door. Nanny Li was experienced in life, and after looking at it for a while, she understood what was going on. It was only because the hot water valve was turned off that cold water suddenly flowed out. But... Nanny Li wore aplicated expression on her face. After opening the hot water valve, she walked out of the bathroom and told Jiang Chujing with a smile, "Miss Jiang, don''t worry. The hot water valve was turned off. I''ve just opened it." After saying that, Nanny Li muttered to herself, seemingly in confusion, "Oh, how strange! I remember the hot water valve was seldom turned off..." Jiang Chujing frowned and brushed the wet hair around her ear. "Oh, maybe I closed it by ident. I can''t remember it." N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. Nanny Li thought that it was just cold water rushing down, so there was no need for her to have screamed so loudly that the whole family was rmed. However, she was a patient after all, and her senses probably were more sensitive than ordinary people, so Nanny Li could only give her more consideration. Li Han was still standing outside the door, wavering whether to enter, when his left hand was suddenly grabbed by a warm softness. He stiffened. Looking sideways, he saw that there was an adorable blush on her face due to the steam, and her skin appeared to be so fair and smooth that it seemed to be shining under the light. Her head was wrapped in a towel to absorb water, under which a palm-sized face and her delicate fringes were revealed. "Done with your shower?" Li Han raised his hand to wipe the water off her forehead. "Yes." Shu Tian nodded and nced at the crack in the door. "What happened?" Hearing her voice, Nanny Li came out of the room. Seeing Shu Tian standing here, she finally revealed a genuine smile on her face. "Mr. Li, Miss Shu, it''s nothing serious. The hot water valve is off while Miss Jiang happened to be taking a shower, so she was a little scared." Shu Tian was in the shower just now so she didn''t hear the scream. She thought that it was just a trivial matter involving a water heater to be fixed and didn''t take it to heart. Just as she was about to drag Li Han bak, Jiang Chujing suddenly came out. "Han..." She looked at Li Han hesitantly, then at Shu Tian and Nanny Li with an expression that seemed to say, "It''s not convenient for us to speak when outsiders are present." Shu Tian snorted at her absurdity. Before Li Han could speak, she said, "I think she has something to tell you, so I won''t be here troubling you. I''ll wait for you in the bedroom." With that, she turned to leave without a trace of reluctance. She just wanted to disgust Jiang Chujing and tell Jiang Chujing that she didn''t even care! The man frowned slightly as he watched Shu Tian enter the room, and then he looked at the woman in front of him. "What else?" "Han, why are you so impatient with me?" Jiang Chujing''s eyes reddened as she looked at him in disbelief. "If you don''t want me to live here, just say it and I won''te. I don''t think Miss Shu is very enthusiastic about me. You..." "Chujing." Li Han interrupted her, his eyes unfathomable, never betraying his thought, "You''re thinking too much. No one doesn''t want you toe." "I don''t want to cause any trouble either. I just moved in for the first night. I''m inevitably a little nervous. I..." She paused as if she was really at a loss. Chapter 185 Chapter 185 Feeling sorry for her, Li Han softened his voice and patted her shoulder. "No one thinks you''re trouble. Rx, okay?" "Sorry, Han. My illness must be a drag on you..." "Chujing!" Li Han interrupted her with a loud voice. "You know this is thest thing I want to hear from you." Apart from pity, his heart was also filled with guilt due to her parent. Jiang Chujing knew clearly what he feeling now, so instead of continuing to talk about this, she asked him to stay longer and spoke her mind to him. Shu Tian would definitely feel bad even if Jiang Chujing could only make Li Han stay in her room for a little longer. [...] Fifteen minutester, Li Han walked into the bedroom. He could only see a small bulge on the big bed. Shu Tian was all covered under the quilt, not even showing her hair. Li Han, who had guessed out that Shu Tian wouldn''t be willing to see him, sighed as he walked over and gently patted the person under the quilt. "Are you asleep?" Shu Tian replied with an angry wriggle. She shook her shoulder, trying to shake his hand off. Li Han turned off the light at the door and then returned to sit beside her. Quietly, he reached his arm under the quilt and grabbed Shu Tian''s waist. Shu Tian dodged immediately like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She sat on one corner of the bed, ring at him with messy hair. "What are you doing?" "Waking you up. This is the most efficient way." He replied calmly in a righteous tone as if he was talking to a naughty child. Shu Tian wasn''t in the mood to joke with him now. She pulled the quilt over again, trying to cover herself up, but was stopped by Li Han soon. She said impatiently, "Let go!" "No." Li Han warned her with his eyes. Shu Tian couldn''t help but feel a little nervous. It only took him one simple word to make her surrender. Shu Tian red at him to show her anger since there was nothing else she could do now. However, Li Han remained calm no matter what. When Shu Tian''s eyes started to ache after a long time of ring, the expression on Li Han''s face still didn''t change at all. Irritated and aggrieved, Shu Tian gave up struggling and copsed on the bed after a moment of silence. "You''re making me mad." Now that she no longer hid from him, Li Han put the quilt away, nted both of his arms on the pillow beside her ears, and leaned over to her until their noses were about to touch each other. "Mad at me or Jiang Chujing?" He was smart enough to see through what was going on in her mind. Shu Tian looked away nervously. "I''m not mad. Who said I was mad?" "Really? Then why are you pouting?" Li Han hid the smile in his eyes and slightly turned up one corner of his mouth. Seeing that she was jealous because of him, instead of feeling annoyed, he found her adorable. Beauty was in the eye of the beholder. Perhaps this was what he was feeling now. Forced into the corner by him, Shu Tian gave up on pretending. With her head turned away, she told him everything. "I wasn''t mad at first, but what your sister said really annoyed me. Does she always speaks like this or did she do that deliberately?" Shu Tian chose the words cautiously, not intending to criticize Jiang Chujing too hard. She knew how important Jiang Chujing''s parents were to Li Han. "It''s understandable if she acts a little strange since she has spent thest five years suffering from disease alone. Living in pain without any contact from the outside, anyone in her position will turn a little abnormal." Li Han hoped Shu Tian to understand that it was still hard for Jiang Chujing to Shu Tian cast her eyes down and said in a low voice. "I understand. I''m still trying to ept her. Plus, I may have felt it wrong but she seems to be hostile to me." Li Han knew Shu Tian''s guess was right. Jiang Chujing had admitted her feelings for him that were beyond what a sister should have for her brother. Although he refused her directly, that didn''t mean Jiang Chujing would give up. She couldn''t be calm when she saw how sweet Li Han and Shu Tian were together. Li Han was now hoping she could ept the reality and eliminate her abnormal feelings for him gradually. If Jiang Chujing weren''t a patient, instead of shrinking from the problem as he did now, he would have told her all the stakes. "We''ve known each other for a long time. She grew up with me and her parents died because of me. That''s why she seems a little possessive about me. She considers me as someone who was saved by her parents at the cost of their lives. It''s understandable if she goes to extremes on matters concerning me." Li Han had to exin like this, trying to make Shu Tian understand. Shu Tian heaved a long sigh. The strong bond between Li Han and Jiang Chujing gave her a mixed feeling. "I don''t know what you two have been through since I''m not a part of your past. I''m just feeling a little upset. Leave me alone. I''ll be fine soon." With that, shey down in bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze. Li Han grabbed her hand and kissed the finger where he had put a ring on. His lips touched the sharp diamond gently. "There''s nothing to be worried about. I''m yours for the rest of your life." The sudden whisper of love brought Shu Tian back to her senses. The finger kissed by him curled up as her face blushed in shyness. "I haven''t decided to ept you yet." Hearing this, Li Han narrowed his eyes and tightened his grip. "Why? Is there anyone better than me?" Shu Tian joked with him. "Who knows? Maybe I''ll find someone else..." "Say it again." "I said... Ouch! It hurts!" Shu Tian withdrew her hand quickly, feeling that her fingers were about to break. Li Han only used one-fifth of his strength and let go of her immediately when she cried out in pain. "If so, I''ll kill that man." Shu Tian couldn''t believe what she heard. "You''re awyer." "So? Don''t you believe that I can get away with it?" His sharp eyes looked a little frightening under the light of a wallmp. Shu Tian shivered. "I do. So, what are you going to do with me?" "You?" Li Han paused with a smile as if he was actually thinking about it. "I''ll rape you and then kill you." Shu Tian was silent in shock. Wasn''t this too cruel? She imagined the scene for a moment. How inhumane! The tension dropped away after this conversation. No longer holding back himself, Li Han leaned over Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. to kiss her when she wasn''t paying attention. "Mmm!" Shu Tian dodged back in surprise. Li Han put his hand behind her head and pulled her closer. There was nowhere to hide now. Chapter 186 Chapter 186 Their lips pressed against each other. Most men were self-taught in kissing. Although he did not have much emotional experience, Li Han was excellent at kissing. After the kiss, she was panting and her cheeks were flushed with her eyes blurring. Li Han liked her best at this moment, making him have the urge to go further with her. He leaned closer to her ear, and his lips rubbed against her ear from time to time as he spoke. "You can only be like this in front of me." This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Shu Tian did not realize how charming she was at this moment. She did note back to her senses so she just nodded her head. On the first night when Jiang Chujing moved in, both of them restrained themselves. Although their rooms were far apart, they still felt a little uneasy. It was rare for Li Han to hold Shu Tian in his arms and do nothing, but they were so close that their breaths intertwined. It was also good to sleep peacefully like that. Shu Tianforted herself that there was nothing wrong with it. It was just that there was one more person to live with them and perhaps she was worrying too much. As long as she believed in Li Han, everything would be fine. [...] After a good sleep, Shu Tian and Li Han had to get up early to work in the morning. They set the rm clock for seven o''clock, and it woke them up from their sound sleep. Shu Tian opened her eyes and looked at the man still lying by her beside. She asked in a daze, "You didn''t go to the gym?" "Well, I''ll go there tomorrow." As Li Han spoke, he gave her a light kiss on the forehead, a quick morning kiss. Compared to his usual behavior, Shu Tian preferred him being gentle like this. There was a sense of contrast, which always made her heart pound in an instant. After making out for a while, they got out of bed to wash up. Li Han had the habit of taking a shower in the morning. After washing her face, Shu Tian went downstairs to have something to eat. Unexpectedly, as soon as she reached the living room, she heard Nanny Li and Jiang Chujing arguing. "Miss Jiang, I''ll do all of these. You don''t have to. Tell me what you want to eat. I''ll make it for you." "Nanny Li, I know you can do all of these, but it''s just different. It''spletely different!" After a night, for some reason, Jiang Chujing learned to be respectful and called their nanny Nanny Li. So what if she had changed the way she called their nanny? The disdain in her words did not change at all. Nanny Li didn''t like to listen to her. Although Nanny Li couldn''t say anything as a servant, she wouldn''t give in. "Miss Jiang, please don''t make it difficult for me. This is what Mr. Li ordered me to do. As long as Mr. Li agrees, I won''t stop you from doing what you want to do." After Nanny Li said this, Shu Tian happened to walk to the door. Both of them were stunned when they saw her, especially Jiang Chujing, whose face changed slightly. All of them looked at each other. Jiang Chujing was the first toe back to her senses and greeted Shu Tian with a smile. "You got up really early." "Good morning." Shu Tian nodded at her and looked at each of them holding a pan in their hands. "What are you..." Nanny Li replied helplessly and anxiously, "Miss Jiang got up early in the morning to make breakfast, which Mr. Li will definitely not allow. So I stopped her, but she insisted on doing it. I was in a dilemma..." Although Nanny Li spoke to Shu Tian in the same tone as to Jiang Chujing, it was clearly closer. Shu Tian reached out to take the pan and put it back on the stove. Then she looked at Jiang Chujing, who was standing opposite her. "Miss Jiang, you have just recovered. You''d better not do something like that. Besides, the kitchen is so smoky that it''s not suitable for you to stay." Jiang Chujing smiled. "It doesn''t matter. I used to cook for Han and my parents before he went abroad. I''m used to it." Her words were so vivid that Shu Tian almost saw the happy scene when she heard them. But... Shu Tian blinked slightly and said with great understanding, "You are used to it, but Li Han may not be used to it. If he sees you still doing this when you are sick, he will definitely be angry. If he mes Nanny Li for it then, what should she do? We have to think for her." Shu Tian looked at Jiang Chujing, who was at a loss, and couldn''t help but sneer in her heart. She could also use the same trick to change the subject since Jiang Chujing deliberately brought up the past to provoke Shu Tian. "It''s okay. I''m much better now." Jiang Chujing ignored their persuasion. She took some eggs, turned on the stove, and poured the oil into the pan. When Nanny Li saw Jiang Chujing being so stubborn, she didn''t know what to say. She could only stand by and watch, afraid that something would happen to Jiang Chujing. Shu Tian watched as Jiang Chujing standing in the kitchen busy with her work in her apron, as if taking her ce, taking care of Li Han. Shu Tian felt a little ufortable, but she couldn''t go up and stop Jiang Chujing. She could only sit in the dining room and watch. When Li Han came downstairs after taking a shower and getting changed, Jiang Chujing had just set the table. In the exquisite gilded ceramic relief te, a few fruits and vegetables were ced delicately. Although she had been busy in the kitchen, she only fried Bacon and eggs. Li Han looked at the breakfast in front of him and thought that another was not ready yet. So he picked it up and habitually put it in front of Shu Tian. Jiang Chujing saw it and said awkwardly, "Han, I made it for you." Li Han stopped in midair for a few seconds before putting the te back. "You did this?" Seeing that he didn''t give it to Shu Tian, Jiang Chujing was in a good mood. "Yes, have a try." Seeing this, Nanny Li quickly brought the breakfast she had made to Shu Tian. There were sandwiches, fruit, and milk, which were not particrly exquisite but it''s a good breakfast. At the same table, they were eating breakfast prepared by different people. Shu Tian really didn''t know what Jiang Chujing was thinking about. Did she be weird since she hadn''t been with anyone for too long? She was trying to separate Shu Tian from Li Han on purpose! Li Han did not say anything special throughout the breakfast, but the food on his te had almost been eaten up, with not much left. Shu Tian was so upset that she took a few bites and went upstairs to get changed. Seeing her leave, Li Han put down the knife and fork in his hands, picked up the coffee beside him, took a sip, and said slowly, " Chujing, don''t do this anymore." Jiang Chujing was still immersed in joy. When she heard this, she became a little confused. "What?" "Don''t do this anymore. With Nanny Li at home, it''s not your duty to do this." He deliberately slowed down to let her understand his words better. Jiang Chujing bit her lips and tried to pretend to be innocent. Before she could say anything, he interrupted her. "I know exactly what you''re thinking about. I allowed you to stay here for your treatment. If you want to do anything because of this, you''re wrong." Li Han was rarely so harsh to her. Every word was stuck in Jiang Chujing''s heart and hurt her hard. She veiled her panic and said, "How, how could you say something like that to me?" "It doesn''t matter." Li Han stood up from his seat, looked at her, turned around, and said, "What matters is what you do." Chapter 187 Chapter 187 Shu Tian was in a bad mood because of Jiang Chujing. On the way from home to thepany, she looked out the window without uttering a word. Li Han knew that it was useless tofort her, so he let her calm down alone. The car drove into thepany''s underground garage. Li Han thought that Shu Tian would be in a better mood. He didn''t expect that Shu Tian would immediately unbuckle her seat belt and leave. Li Han frowned and grabbed her wrist. "You didn''t even say goodbye to me?" Li Han could endure all Shu Tian''s bad emotions, but he could not ept that she ignored him. Shu Tian replied perfunctorily, "Goodbye." Hearing what Shu Tian said, Li Han felt awful. Shu Tian dared to go against his request now. Seeing that Li Han didn''t say anything, Shu Tian deliberately asked to annoy him, "Shall I leave now?" Li Han tilted his head slightly and smiled. He didn''t expect that he would be annoyed by Shu Tian. He finallypromised and raised his hand to unlock the car. "Work hard. Let''s have lunch together." Shu Tian opened the door and got out of the car, striding to the elevator without looking back. She deliberately showed her bad mood to Li Han. However, she stomped her feet angrily as soon as she entered the elevator. "Jiang Chujing!" She patted herself on the head and said, "It''s all my fault that I felt pity for her. I regret it now, but it''s toote!" Thinking of what happened this morning, Shu Tian felt extremely terrible. She was rubbing her hair when the elevator reached the fourth floor and opened. Many office workers in suits and skirts immediately rushed in. One of them was Shu Tian''s colleague. She was shocked to see that Shu Tian was pulling her own hair. Shu Tian was also petrified for a second, but she came to her senses soon. She pretended that something dirty had fallen on her head and brushed it away. Then she put her hand down. "Shu Tian, I haven''t seen you for a long time. I heard you''ve left for personal affairs. Have you finished it?" Liuu greeted Shu Tian politely. Shu Tian nodded and said, "Yes, it''s been almost two weeks. I should not be on leave for more time." "You''re lucky enough. I couldn''t even take two days off before, let alone two weeks." Liuu sighed. "If only I were like you. I haven''t been home for a year. I haven''t had time." Shu Tian was a little embarrassed when she heard this. She could onlyfort Liuu, "The Spring Festival ising, and you can take an annual vacation. I''m a local, so I can stay here to help you on duty." "Really?" "Yes, if there''s no emergency." "How nice of you!" Liuu immediately smiled and told Shu Tian a lot about what had happened in the past few days. In the past, no one would like to tell her this. They all kept avoiding her. On the way back to the office, they happened to meet Wu Mengfan. Shu Tian hadn''t had any dealings with her for a long time. She had met her with Liuu now, and it was not good to pretend not to know her. "Good morning." Shu Tian greeted calmly. Li Han once said to her that as long as she did not have a deep hatred towards someone, she should not confront him or her face to face. Shu Tian hadn''t seen Wu Mengfan for a long time, and she had already forgotten the little grudge between them. Wu Mengfan also greeted her politely. When she caught a glimpse of the diamond ring on Shu Tian''s hand, she stopped smiling and asked, "Your ring is so beautiful. It''s new?" Shu Tian looked down and gracefully reached out. "Thank you, but I didn''t buy it myself." "Someone gave it to you? This style is very beautiful, and the diamond looks very pure. How much does it cost?" Liuu said straightforward and nudged Shu Tian. "Did Mr. Li give it to you?" Shu Tian just smiled and didn''t answer. Liuu seemed to realize that her question was a little inappropriate and immediately said, "It''s my fault. As long as the ring is beautiful, it''s not important that who gave it to you. That''s great. I''ll go to buy a ring when I get my sry next month." Shu Tian smiled. However, Wu Mengfan had aplicated feeling. She saw that Shu Tian''s dress cost at least tens of thousands of yuan, and that the style of her shoes was also a limited edition. She never took those seriously, which were just toys for the rich in her eyes. She thought that Li Han would get tired of Shu Tian sooner orter. But she saw Shu Tian''s diamond ring today, which was definitely different from those clothes and shoes. Mr. Li definitely knew what it meant, but he still gave it to Shu Tian, which showed that he really liked Shu Tian. Wu Mengfan did not dare to think more. She suddenly felt a little scary. Thinking of what she had done to Shu Tian, she felt chilled. [...] As soon as Li Han returned to his office, he had to deal with many documents and various meetings. From the moment he arrived at the office, he began to attend teleconferencing, video conferencing, as well as boarding meeting. He had never stopped and spent the whole morning attending meetings. And he kept talking and reading reports. He didn''t even have time to take a sip of the coffee sent by the secretary. "Mr. Li, you have been arranged to have lunch with the president of the HR Group at the ZD Hotel at noon. It will end at about two o''clock." Zhang Bikun reported the schedule to Li Han. Li Han pulled his tie and said indifferently, "Decline it." Zhang Bikun twitched his mouth and said, "Mr. Li, it''s already eleven o''clock, and the meal will start in an hour. It''s not appropriate to decline it now." The president of the HR Group was a big shot anyway. Although he wanted to ask for help from the HY Law Office, they could exchange some useful resources from him through this meal. But Mr. Li was going to decline this meal now. Zhang Bikun asked, "Mr. Li, do you have any other ns for lunch?" Li Han thought for a moment. What he said almost made Zhang Bikun choke to death. "Yes, I''ll have lunch with Shu Tian." Zhang Bikun thought he was hallucinating and asked in shock, "What?"This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Li Han red at him, and he immediately said, "Mr. Li, you can have lunch with Miss Shu anytime, but the HR group..." Zhang Bikun did not expect that he would have such a willful boss. "It''s a special period now, so I should be careful." Li Han did not feel any guilt at all. Li Han was a businessman who should value personal interests andpany interests most, but now he could not think of anything else except to cheer Shu Tian up. Seeing Li Han''s persistence, Zhang Bikun nodded reluctantly and said, "I see. I''ll contact the HR Group immediately." Chapter 188 Chapter 188 Shu Tian had no idea that she had paid so much for a meal. Seeing that Li Han insisted on eating with her in the canteen, she refused. "If you go with me, others will see it. How can I eat well?" Everyone else wanted to hide their rtionship, but he wished he could make it public. Of course it didn''t matter in normal times. But now it was in thepany, it was inappropriate to be so high-profile. Li Han felt that it was not proper, but it was not that he was afraid that others would know, but that he did not want so many people to be the third wheel. After thinking for a while, he picked up thendline and called the canteen directly, "Send some food to the president''s office." He only said this sentence and then he hung up. The person in charge of the canteen was a little dazed when he saw the phone being hung up. He saw the caller ID and found it was really... the president''s office! It was the first time that he had received a call from his boss personally. He was extremely excited and he quickly asked the chef to cook another portion of today''s good dishes in a small pot and then brought them to the president''s office. There were six dishes, one soup, and one porridge for them. Looking at the steaming and fragrant food, though HY Law Office''s food had always been very good, Shu Tian could still see that these were made for them specially. She couldn''t eat such exquisite food in normal times. There were green leaves on the side of the shrimp... Li Han gave her the cutlery, "Eat." Shu Tian took it and teased him on purpose, "You said you were going to have lunch with me, but you treat me the food of the cateen." Li Han raised his eyebrows slightly, "If you don''t like it, I''ll ask Zhang Bikun to order food in the future." "I was just kidding." Shu Tian pursed her lips and snickered. How could she not like it? The food was cooked separately by the canteen, and it wasn''t worse than that of outside. Li Han put the chopsticks on the edge of the bowl and made a crisp click, "Well, Shu Tian. Now you dare to make fun of me." Shu Tian held back the smile and shook her head seriously, "I didn''t." The man crossed his arms across his chest and looked at the woman who was nibbling at the side. He felt warm, "It doesn''t matter if you have made fun of me. Just don''t be angry or cry alone." If it could make her feel better by teasing him, he wouldn''t care about it. Shu Tian paused and quickly swallowed the rice, afraid that she would say it toote, "Really?" "Yes." "Then I''ll discuss something with you." She also put down the spoon in her hand and adjusted her sitting position so that she didn''t look so casual. It was rare for Li Han to see her so serious. He nodded and said, "Say it." "It''s the new year in a month. I''ve been taking care of you and Jiang Chujingtely. Shouldn''t you do something for me?" As she spoke, she looked at Li Han''s eyes with both implicit and explicit and almost said it directly. Li Han understood immediately, but... he pretended not to understand and asked her, "What do you want to say?" Shu Tian tilted her head to look at him. Hearing his question, she clicked her tongue in frustration, "Don''t pretend to be confused. Don''t you know what I said?" "I know." Li Han smiled and looked at her with teasing, "But it depends on whether it is used in business or personal matters." "That must be business." Shu Tian was tired of beating around the bush, but he pretended not to understand. She simply made it clear, "Isn''t the year-end bonus going to be distributed soon? I heard from my colleagues that it was reported, right?" Li Han suppressed the smile. It turned out that she had been beating around the bush for a long time Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. because of the year-end bonus. He held back the smile and nodded solemnly, "Yes, it has been reported." "How much can I get?" Shu Tian looked very curious. She had won the year-end award for the first time since she started working here. Although she didn''t work long, Zhang Rui''er said that even neers in the HY Law Office could also get much year-end award. "Do you want to know?" "Yes!" Li Han separated his legs, put one arm across the back of the sofa, pointed at his face with one finger, and tilted his head slightly. Shu Tian was too familiar with this action. For the year-end bonus... She gritted her teeth and leaned over to kiss him rudely, "Can you say it now?" Li Han got up and walked to his desk. He took out one of the documents and flipped through it. After finding the group that she was in, he browsed through it for a moment and put the document back. Shu Tian followed him, propping her hands on the table and half-lying down, "How much is it?" "Not much." Li Han shook his head again, "To be exact, it''s only a little." "Ah?" Shu Tian stopped smiling and she blinked in surprise, "Will I... get the least?" "Yes." Seeing her disappointed and sad face that was about to cry, Li Han reached out and pulled her onto hisp, "You''ve been on leave and absent from work recently. It''s good that you can get the year- end bonous." Well, she seemed to have been absent from work intermittently recently. How could she forget this? Shu Tian had thought that she had handled a few cases well and would get some bonus, but she forgot that her attendance was so low that it was outrageous. "Well, okay." Shu Tian sighed and was devastated, "I don''t have much expectation for the new year in an instant." "Isn''t there still some divorce property? Will you haven''t money to celebrate the new year?" "That''s different." Shu Tian pulled a long face, "The money isn''t for me. I gave it to my parents long ago." It seemed that a long time had passed when it came to divorce. When she thought of Tang Zechen, she didn''t have any emotion. Li Han really couldn''t bear to see her so depressed. Heforted her in a soft voice, "Don''t worry, you can''t get more year-end bonuses, but I''ll still give you the red envelope." In thepany, he was the boss and couldn''t cheat for personal gain. But at home, he was just her husband, so he could do whatever he wanted. It was just a little year-end bonus, and he would give her double. Shu Tian was still sad, "You don''t understand. The year-end bonus is the recognition of employees like us. Everyone wants to get more. In addition to the money, there will be a sense of aplishment." "What? Don''t you have the sense of aplishment as my woman, huh?" He suddenly opened his mouth and bit her earlobe. Without excerting much force, he knocked on her with his teeth, "I''m much harder to conquer than any job." Shu Tian''s ears were sensitive, and she immediately froze, as if an electric current was flowing through her body. It was numbing. She quickly tilted her head and her heart beat faster because of what he had just said, "Don''t mess around. We have to workter!" "Don''t worry, the lunch break is too short for me." Li Han did not let go of her ears as she spoke. He opened her mouth and sucked her ears, and the woman in his arms trembled. He smiled, his voice a little hoarse, "Baby, you''re so sensitive." "..." Shu Tian blushed and pushed him away, " Stop talking! "Why are you so shy? I haven''t done anything. Why do you blush after I said a few words?" He deliberately teased her, and his breath sprayed on her fair neck. Shu Tian was conservative and couldn''t hear such words in broad daylight, "You like to y rascal!" "Can''t I kiss my own woman?" Li Han saw that her ears were gradually flushed, and he bit it with some strength, as if he was punishing her, "You don''t say what you mean." Chapter 189 Chapter 189 "Li Han." She called out to him, not noticing the coquettishness in her tone. "That''s enough." N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. "No, now that Chu Jing is living in and Nanny Li is also here. The third wheels are so disturbing and I can''t find a chance to sleep with you." The third wheels... Shu Tian burst intoughter and said gloatingly, "You ounts for it. Why are you ming others?" "What? Are you happy?" The man pinched her thigh. "It''s useless to be happy. You have to make it up for me during the daytime." The two frolicked in the office for a while. It was almost time for work before Li Han let her go. She walked towards the office, Li Han wanted to get up toe to the office with her, but just as he stood up, he made a lurch. He raised his hand to hold the table to maintain his bnce and called out to her thoughtfully, "Shu Tian, have you gained weight recently?" Shu Tian stopped at the door and turned to look at him in confusion. "What''s wrong?" The man pointed to his thigh. "It''s numb." Shu Tian bit her lip."I''m not. It''s just because I have been pressing it for long." "It''s okay. The overweight woman had advantages. It gives me the feeling..." Before he could finish speaking, the woman who had been standing in front of him had already opened the door and rushed out. She was so vigorous that it seemed to be a monster chasing behind her. Li Han watched as she disappeared from his sight, then he turned around and walked to the french window of the office. He looked down at the ant-sized traffic below. Was it time for him to reflect on himself? Recently, he was really like a hooligan... Shu Tian darted back to the office. None of her colleagues in the same group hade back yet. Zhang Rui''er was the only one sitting behind the office eating snacks. When she heard the sound, she quickly put away the snacks in her hands. When she looked up and saw that it was Shu Tian, she immediately took it out again. "Oh geez. I thought it was Ms. Wei..." "What are you doing? Why are you so guilty?" Shu Tian patted her on the shoulder and took a potato chip from Zhang Rui''er''s snack box and put it into her mouth. "I''m not guilty! I think it not proper to eat in the office? I''m afraid of being scolded." Zhang Rui''er chewed on the chips. "Why did you do just now? I didn''t see you." "I went upstairs." Shu Tian pointed up and didn''t hide it from Zhang Rui''er. Anyway, now that everyone had known about it, it seemed pretentious to hide it. But... "Why are you back so early? Don''t you usuallye to work at thetest?" Picking up a cup of coffee after lunch was a must for Zhang Rui''er. How could she sit here and eat snacks early today? Zhang Rui''er paused as she handed the snacks to her mouth. Her expression became a little unnatural. "I have something to do today..." She never lied, and even Shu Tian could tell that there was something fishy from her expression and her secretive behavior. Shu Tian felt her strange and guessed. "You don''t have a boyfriend, do you?" "Ahem..." Zhang Rui''er choked on her saliva and quickly waved her hand. "Don''t talk nonsense. Where can I find a boyfriend? My routine is fixed every day." Shu Tian suddenly realized something unusual. "Oh no, I remember you don''t like snacks very much. It''s not like you to bring snacks directly to thepany today..." As she spoke, she snatched the snacks from her hand and took a look at the packaging when Zhang Rui''er was distracted, The words on the package were all foreignnguages. She definitely didn''t buy them herself. "Tell me, who gave it to you?" Shu Tian looked at her with a teasing look. Zhang Rui''er stammered and didn''t make it up for a long time. Maybe she was annoyed and her face blushed like a tomato. "Oh, stop asking..." "Why, can''t you say it yet?" Zhang Rui''er gave her a gentle push and simplyy on the table, muttering, "You had already known!" "I know?" Shu Tian was a little confused and pointed to herself. "How could I know if you didn''t tell me?" "Think about it yourself." Shu Tian was confused by what she said and couldn''t get a result. "Who the hell is it? Tell me. I won''t tell anyone." "Zhang..." "What?" Shu Tian didn''t hear her clearly. "What did you say?" "Well, Zhang Bikun!" Zhang Rui''er couldn''t stand it and finally said it. This time, Shu Tian was surprised. "Ah?" Although she had intended to introduce him to Zhang Rui''er before, she didn''t hear anything after that. When did the two of them get together? "Well, great speed." "Tsk!" Zhang Rui''er red at Shu Tian with a blushed face. "Don''t talk nonsense. We just got in touch to know each other first." Shu Tian raised a finger and shook it. "You don''t understand. I know Zhang Bikun, if he doesn''t like you, he will directly ignore you." Perhaps being with Li Han would affect her a lot. Although Zhang Bikun looked gentle, he actually had a darker side in his heart. He was the kind of person who hid a dagger in his smile. When you still felt that he was very warm to you, in fact, he had long forgotten who you were. She knew it well. "Why did he give you snacks?" At the mention of this, Zhang Rui''er was also speechless. She moved her body and revealed arge ck box under the desk. "Look." The whole box was filled with all kinds of imported snacks. Shu Tian''s eyes were almost popping out because she was so surprised. She really didn''t expect the seemingly serious Zhang Bikun to be so considerate. He actually gave her a snack box... Zhang Rui''er quickly put it away. He said with amusement and helplessness, "Last night, I was at home alone. There was no food at home. I post a pic toin that if someone appeared in front of me with a snack box, I would let him be my boyfriend... You know, I was just joking, but he really brought me directly today..." At lunchtime, Zhang Bikun asked her to go to the underground parking lot. As a result, he took out such a big box directly from the trunk of his Audi A8. It was funny to think about it now. "I didn''t expect that Zhang Bikun is action motivated." Shu Tian was in a good mood and felt that she had made a good match. "He meant to be your boyfriend." "But..." At this point, Zhang Rui''er was a little uncertain. "After all, I''m his subordinate. His position is so much higher than mine. I''m afraid that others will gossip about us." Shu Tian patted her on the shoulderfortingly. "You''re dating for yourself, not for anyone else. Don''t be afraid, or you''ll regret it." Zhang Rui''er froze. She always felt that Shu Tian was different from usual, who looked so brave now. She nodded. "I see." After work in the evening, Shu Tian went to the office to wait for Li Han to get off work. He kept having meetings until almost eight o''clock. On the way home, they passed a university town and there was already a night market outside. Shu Tian looked at the small dining stalls one after another, and memories welled up in her mind. She suddenly wanted to go down and take a walk. "Li Han, let''s go to the night market." The man who was driving turned to look at the bustling crowd outside, which was huddled under the dim streetlights. He didn''t find it funny, so he didn''t understand. "Why?" "You haven''t experienced it." Shu Tian raised her hand and patted him on the arm. She winked slyly at him like a fox. "I''ll show you the charm of the night market today. I promise you that you want to do it again if youe once." Li Han was not interested, but seeing that she was in high spirits, he reluctantly agreed and parked the car in an open-air parking lot at the intersection. There were tens of ordinary cars parked next to a luxury car worth millions. The young man who was guarding the car felt surprised. Li Han just gave him a one hundred dor note. He didn''t have change, but Li Han didn''t care about it. Shu Tian dragged him into the crowd. On the busy streets, there were all kinds of people jostling one after another. On a cold night, it was a pyrotechnic exuberant There were all kinds of gadgets on the ground along the street, and they only pushed a dining stall to sell snacks. Many people strolled around. Looking at the young or happy faces, she felt that even the coldness faded a little. Shu Tian hadn''t been there for a long time, and she was in high spirits. After walking for a while, she saw that the man beside her had no reaction. She looked up and saw that half of his face was in the scarf, revealing a high nose bridge and charming eyes. His brows were frowning, which showed that he was not used to it. Shu Tian thought that he had just finished his meeting and had been busy all day. He didn''t like the bustling ce, but even so, he was willing to amodate herself to such a street. Thinking of this, she was moved. Shu Tian looked away and her eyes fixed on the big hand in the air. She pursed her lips and smiled, then she grabbed it and stuffed it into her pocket like picking a valuable treasure. Her eyes shed with a smile as if there were stars hidden in them. "You don''t feel cold?" Chapter 190 Chapter 190 As soon as Li Han''s hand reached into Shu Tian''s inner pocket of the clothes, he felt a warmth from her body, which was in stark contrast to the cold outside. He lowered his eyes to look at her smiling face. And he could see two fan-like eyshes hanging on her eyelids and her smiling eyes. All of sudden, he felt that he might have started to like hanging around in the night market, because the woman he liked would hold his hand. Holding hands, they passed a street. An old man in a cotton-padded jacket who looked like he was in his fifties was selling roasted corn. She then leaned over and bought one. "How much is it?" "Five." The old man said as he took one out for her. "Do you think this is okay?" "Okay." She then quickly took out the money from her pocket, but she had to let go of his hand first, which made him displeased. He then took out a hundred from his pocket and said, "Here." Yet the old man didn''t take it, but smiled and said, "I can''t change it!" "Keep the change." The old man quickly waved his hand. "No, I can''t ept it." Quickly, she withdrew her hand and gave the old man money. "Sorry, he just likes to joke, hehe..." After leaving the stall and walking out for a while, she couldn''t help but scold him, "Why are you so generous? You give him a hundred when the corn''s only five?" Li Han followed her without saying a word. Looking at the corn in her hands, he found it particrly unpleasant. It was all because of it that she let go of his hand. "Did you hear me talking to you?" She then paused and turned to look up at him. "I know you''re rich, so you can''t just squander it." "Sorry, I won''t do that again." He nodded obediently. For the first time in his life, he was taught to be thrifty by a woman. This feeling was not bad. Walking along the street, she ate half of the corn and then it was thrown into the trash can by him. He said it was cold, but in fact, he only wanted to hold her hand. Along the way, they saw a handmade trinkets stall. The owner was a nearby college student. She came out to start her own business, selling small essories made by herself. Many girls were gathering around to pick them. Shu Tian caught a glimpse of a small dinosaur-style flower with a small green rhinestone with a golden border, which was very cute. She then pointed at it and asked, "How much is this headrope?" "Thirty." The little girl looked up politely and smiled at her, but her eyes inadvertently swept across Li Han''s face. Soon, she was impressed by his handsome face. This man was fantastically handsome! He was sharp-featured, with a prominent nose, brooding eyes. Even the shape of his lips was so sexy and beautiful. Dressing in a bespoke suit, was he a star? Yet she didn''t dare to look into his eyes. His powerful aura frightened her. At this time, Shu Tian handed the headrope to him and asked for his opinion. "What do you think?" He then took a nce at it. It was a very ordinary handmade headrope. The workmanship was not particrly meticulous, or even a little rough. She was still in the mood to pick a headband when someone else was staring at her boyfriend? With such a thought, he suddenly felt a little upset and felt he was ignored. He then leaned over and kissed her on the lips. "It looks good. Whatever you prick looks good." The sudden praise surprised and pleased her. She then raised the headrope in her hand. "Then I''ll buy it?" "Okay." Seeing that he was standing unmoved, she nudged him and whispered, "You pay the money." He didn''t want to have too much contact with the stall owner. He then took out the right money and handed it over, so that he didn''t have to wait. Seeing this, the little girl knew that he had a girlfriend. She then took it awkwardly, wrapped the headrope in a small bag and handed it to Shu Tian. They then strolled around for a while. As it was getting colder, they then went back. On the way back, Shu Tian turned on the light on the roof of the car and put the headrope under the light. She looked at the green "diamond" on the little dinosaur and liked it very much. She then quickly tied up her hair with it. Li Han nced at her from the corner of his eye and did not understand what she was thinking. "I bought you so much jewelry and I haven''t seen you wear it. It''s just a headband." Knowing that he had no girlish heart, she then changed the subject, "Does it look good on me?" Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. "No." He truly didn''t think it was cute. "It''s just a pile of fake diamonds and a childish stic dinosaur. Tell me where it looks good." She red at him. "You said it looked good just now." He also said that everything she wore looked good. He withdrew his words so quickly? "Just now?" As soon as he heard that, he became angry. His eyes narrowed. "Just now, the little girl''s eyes were glued to me. You couldn''t see that? Or you''re just attracted by a headrope?" Little girl? Shu Tian pondered for a while. "You mean the stall owner?" He then sneered and ignored her. "Really? I didn''t notice." Just now, she was so focused on shopping that she had no time to care about anything else. Besides, it was normal for her not to see that clearly in such a dim light, but... why was he so angry? Just because she didn''t notice? "Wait, in that case, I should be the one who feels angry. Why are you angry?" She looked at him in confusion. Yet he snorted sarcastically. "By the time I''ll be seduced by another woman, you won''t notice that as well." His words irritated her. "What did you just say?" All this time, he didn''t dare to utter a word. The car suddenly became quiet. But she did not know why he grew angry for no reason. From the corner of her eye, she saw that he did not want to speak with her right now. So she took out her cell phone andined to Fu Qingtong. She sent a message to Fu Qingtong, "Are you there? I''m so angry!" In a few seconds, Fu Qingtong texted back. "What''s wrong?" Shu Tian then told her everything that had just happened, and in the end, she added an angry emoji. After her message was sent, Fu Qingtong soon sent her a long message. Fu Qingtong said in the message, " Silly girl. He obviously thinks that you don''t care about him enough and that he feels neglected. Think about it, if a man keeps staring at you and Li Han stands by and doesn''t notice anything, will you feel ufortable?" Thought for a moment, Shu Tian would. But it was not that exaggerated, was it? It was as if the girl had done something to him. Shu Tian was pondering when the car happened to reach the intersection. The red light turned on and the car stopped suddenly. And her body shook forward. At this time, she came back to her senses in the shaking. Chapter 191 Chapter 191 She would have hit the window if she didn''t wear the seatbelt. He must have done it on purpose. Shu Tian curled her lips, but it was impossible not to coax him. She grabbed his arm on the steering wheel, shook it and fawned on him in a low voice. "I will be careful next time." "To what?" His voice was cold and clear, but in fact, he had long been tender because of her move, just pretending. "Not to let other women attract you." Shu Tian joked deliberately but in exchange for a colder gaze. When she saw that her words didn''t work, she felt disappointed and leaned over to him. "I didn''t ignore you. I was just so happy to go out with you, so I didn''t pay attention to it." Li Han had already lost all his anger at the moment she took the initiative to make up to him. Now, he just wanted more love from her. Men were always mature and reliable outside but willful big boys in front of their beloved women. "Then what do you focus on?" "Talking to you." Shu Tian rubbed her face against his arm. "Don''t be angry." Li Han was about to speak when the traffic light suddenly changed to green. As he moved his hand to the gear and was about to step on the elerator, a ck shadow appeared, and then his thin lips were touched by a wet and soft thing. He froze for two seconds before he realized that he was... Kissed? Looking at Shu Tian, she had sat back to her position. With a blushed face, she stammered, "It''s green. Let''s go." A horn sounded behind the car. Li Han chuckled and his short breath was as if it had blown directly into her heart. Shu Tian''s ttering kiss indeed worked. Although neither of them spoke much on the way back, the atmosphere had changed. It was subtle and moving. The car pulled into the vi gate and parked on the left side of the front yard. As soon as the tyres stopped spinning, Shu Tian pulled the door almost simultaneously and immediately got off. She felt so shy. Li Han didn''t even have time to stop her, but it was not that far to home, after all, she had no ce to hide in the vi, so he let her go. However, neither of them expected that a storm was waiting for them at home. Shu Tian changed on slippers from the entrance, being afraid that Li Han would catch up, she ran straight to the second floor. Nanny Li was cleaning the living room. Seeing that she was in a panic, she enjoined, "Miss Shu, slow down and watch your step." Shu Tian answered hurriedly, "It''s okay. Don''t worry!" As she spoke, she had already turned to the corridor on the second floor, but before she stepped into the room, she bumped into Jiang Chujinging out. She was wearing a whitece nightgown with long sleeves, which was down to her calves, revealing her slender ankles. There was a white bow on her cor with a small hollow design. It was sexy but cute. It was an ordinary nightgown, but Shu Tian was confused because it seemed to belong to her. She remembered that it was a new sample that Li Han sent over. She liked it very much, but because of the season, she hadn''t worn it. It was brand new with a tag. Its colour, size and style were all matched Jiang Chujing''s body, but it was much different from her temperament. Shu Tian frowned. Why did Jiang Chujing wear her nightgown? Obviously, Jiang Chujing saw hering upstairs and greeted her shyly, "You''re back." She looked so casual and natural as if she was not the one wearing someone else''s clothes. She could tolerate anything. Jiang Chujing was a patient after all, and she would never bother with a patient. But what was going on now? She took her clothes without saying a word. Although it was brand new, it was her personal belongings. What right did she have to wear? Shu Tian knew that there would be inevitable troubles when she moved in, but she didn''t expect it to be so soon. She took a deep breath, tried not to be so angry, walked up to Jiang Chujing, sized her up, and finally looked at her face without dodging. "Miss Jiang, although I know it is beautiful, you should at least let me know before you wear it, right?" She tried her best not to be angry, but she could not be tactful with her anymore, so she said it directly. Jiang Chujing look down at her nightgown, and then as if she had just realized it, she looked apologetic. "I''m sorry, because I didn''t bring too many clothes, and none of the clothes in the cab were suitable for me, so I went to find one. I didn''t expect you to mind so much..." "Yes, I mind." Shu Tian stopped her and asked firmly, "Please change it and return it to me now." Jiang Chujing didn''t seem to expect Shu Tian to be annoyed because of a piece of clothing. Astonishment shed through her eyes, but when she saw the figure at the stairs, she immediately shifted her attitude. "You want me to take it off here? How can you talk like that..." Shu Tian was confused. When did she ask her to take it off here? She just said she should change it for her. But when she saw Li Han by her side the next second, she understood that Jiang Chujing was deliberate. She was really... Scheming. "What''s wrong?" Li Han looked at them standing face to face and asked. Seeing that he did not care about her at first, Jiang Chujing was so furious that her jaw was taut. She This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. wished she could tear Chu Tian apart right now. Shu Tian sighed and pointed to Jiang Chujing. "She''s wearing my nightgown." Li Han nced at it, but he had no impression of it because he had not seen Shu Tian wear it before. Jiang Chujing took the initiative to exin, "Han, I didn''t mean anything else. I just felt that the clothes in the cab were notfortable enough, so I found a new one to wear. I didn''t know that Miss Shu would mind so much. This one is new..." "It''s new and it''s hanging in my closet. Can you wear it without telling me?" Shu Tian was tough. It was the bottom line for her. It was impossible to pass it off in several words. Jiang Chujing blushed and looked as if she had suffered a great grievance. "Then you can''t let me take off it here." "I didn''t tell you to take it off here. I told you to go inside and change it..." "Okay." Li Han interrupted them and nced at the nightgown. "Chujing, you can tell me what you want. Don''t use someone else''s things without permission. Forget it this time. Don''t do it again." Hearing thest few words, Shu Tian suddenly red at him. "Forget it this time?" She sneered. "Ask her to return it to me." "Tian." Li Han frowned slightly and pulled her to his side. "If you like it, I''ll send someone to bring you another one..." "That''s different." Shu Tian raised her voice. "What is mine is mine, and ten more of the same is not this one." Chapter 192 Chapter 192 "I didn''t tell you to take it off here. I told you to go inside and change it..." "Enough." Li Han interrupted their conversation and nced at Jiang Chujing''s nightgown. "Chu Jing, you can tell me if you need anything. Don''t use anyone else''s. I''ll forgive you this time." Shu Tian suddenly looked at him, "Forgive her this time?" She sneered. "You asked her to return my dress." "Tian." Li Han frowned slightly. "If you like, I''ll send someone to bring you another one..." "But they are not the same!" Shu Tian raised her voice and said word by word, "My things are mine. Even if you give me ten more, they are not this dress." Li Han did not understand why she was so stubborn. It was just a dress and he could buy another one for her. He reached out to pull her towards him andforted her in a low voice. "Just take it as a gift to her, okay?" "A gift is what I am willing to give. Now she put it on without my permission and forced me to give it to her." Shu Tian wouldn''tpromise because she couldn''t even persuade herself into giving in to her. Today what she wanted was the dress, but who knew whether she would want her man in the future? Li Han regarded her as his sister, but Miss Jiang seemed to have an ulterior motive. Just as the tension in the room heightened, Jiang Chujing, who had not spoken for a long time, This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. suddenly swayed. Then she lowered her head and said in a disappointed voice, "Han, don''t me Miss Shu. I didn''t know she would care so much. It''s really my fault. I''m sorry, Miss Shu. I''ll take them off for you." Just take them off for her? Jiang Chujing was wearing her clothes. It seemed that it was she who had done something wrong. Shu Tian could hardly believe that a person could change her position so fast as if everything was other people''s fault. Jiang Chujing went back to the room and locked the door. Shu Tian and Li Han stood still. Shu Tian was waiting for her to give her clothes back. Li Han looked at her and was a bit surprised. "Tian, what''s wrong with you?" Shu Tian was in a fit of anger. When she heard his question, she exploded for some unknown reason. "What''s wrong with me? Shouldn''t you ask her that question?" Anyway, Li Han was a man, and he thought as a man. He didn''t understand that it was only a pajama that Shu Tian hadn''t worn yet. If Chu Jing wanted it, just gave it to her and told her not to do this next time. Why bother? It would be more difficult for Shu Tian to get on with her at home in the future. But for Shu Tian, it wasn''t just pajamas. Chu Jing walked in and out of her room casually and even took her clothes to wear. It was obvious that she was regarding herself as the hostess of this house and thought that she could do anything. Shu Tian did not feel that there was anything she could give in to, anything worth giving in to. Chu Jing''s apology did not show any sincerity. She was only saying it to Li Han. Jiang Chujing soon changed out of the pajamas. She didn''t even forget to fold them before handing them over to Shu Tian. Shu Tian didn''t refuse it. After taking it over, she looked into Jiang Chujing''s eyes and said seriously, "Miss Jiang, I don''t like others to take my things personally. I hope this is thest time." There was something in her words that she meant to tell Jiang Chujing that she was in no ce to move her things, let alone make them her own. Jiang Chujing blinked, suppressing the surge of jealousy. "I''m sorry." Shu Tian didn''t answer and turned to go into the bedroom. Li Han looked at Jiang Chujing, who was standing in front of him with her head down, and said. "Chu Jing..." "You don''t have tofort me." Jiang Chujing interrupted him for the first time. She pointed in the direction that Shu Tian left, pretending to be understanding." Miss Shu seems to have misunderstood me. Go andfort her." "But you..." "I''m fine." Jiang Chujing smiled to hide her calction. "I''m sorry, Han." Li Han became softhearted when he heard her incessant apologies and finally, he patted her on the shoulder. " Have a good sleep." Then, he turned around and went back to his bedroom. The door mmed shut, shutting off all the noise. Jiang Chujing gradually took off her mask, and her true feelings under it were finally revealed. She stared at the door of the room, wishing she could see it through to find out what they were doing inside. Jiang Chujing gazed at it for a long time before she went back to her room. She leaned against the door, but she was not calm. She told herself that she had to endure and hold her breath. Only in this way could she win Li Han back! ... After Shu Tian entered the room, she threw her pajamas into the trash can. Li Han came in and saw a sleeve hanging on the frame of the trash can. The man set his mouth in a grim line and called out to Shu Tian, who was sitting on the bed facing the wall, "Why did you throw it away?" Shu Tian ignored him. The good mood she had after returning from the night market was gone. There was only depression that she had nowhere to vent. The man raised his voice and repeated it again. There was already some seriousness in his tone. "I''m asking you. Why did you throw it away?" Shu Tian turned around angrily. "How can I still wear that when someone else has worn it? This is pajamas, not a coat." "Then why did you insist on taking it back just now?" In Li Han''s impression, Shu Tian had never been a difficult person to others, so her stubbornness just now surprised him. He didn''t know Shu Tian''s thoughts, so it was no wonder he didn''t under why she did so. However, Shu Tian did not want to exin anything. She was in no mood to exin after hearing his words. "Why can''t I get my things back?" Shu Tian thought it was funny. "She took someone else''s things without permission, and you don''t allow me to ask them back?" "Shu Tian, stop beating around the bush." "I''m not beating around the bush." She bit her lip and her chin twitched. She suppressed her emotions and said, "Whether it''s clothes or anything else, what is mine is mine. I won''t allow anyone to touch them without my permission." Besides, Jiang Chujing wanted more from Li Han. Although it was just her spection, as a woman who knew what a woman wanted from a man, Shu Tian felt that she was right. "If you live under the same roof, friction is inevitable. What good will it do you if you insist on arguing?" Li Han reasoned with her, trying to help her get rid of her depression. But she wouldn''t listen to him at all. "This is my bottom line. I can tolerate anything else, but I won''t give in to anyone on this." Shu Tian waved her hand to show that she didn''t want to continue the conversation. Otherwise, they would quarrel again. "Let''s calm down. If you think about it in my position, you won''t persuade me like this." Then, she got up and went straight into the bathroom. She closed the door, and Li Han could see her silhouette on the frosted ss. Chapter 193 Chapter 193 Not long after, the sound of water flowing came from inside. Li Hanid back against the pillow and nced at the trash not far away. The nightgown that they battled for just now was lying inside, turning into a piece of garbage. After considering it in many ways, he didn''t understand what he had said wrong and made Shu Tian This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. mad at him. He finally gave up and called Ling Junze directly. Ling Junze answered the phone in a few seconds. He happened not to have surgery today and was sitting by the firece at home warming his hands. "What''s wrong? Why do you call me at this time?" Li Han was silent for a moment as if having a bone in the throat, "There''s something I want to ask you." Ling Junze paused his action and raised an eyebrow in surprise. "What?" Li Han told him about what had happened, especially what he had said. "Is there anything wrong with what I said?" Ling Junze couldn''t help butugh. "Is that okay?" "What''s the problem?" "First of all, there''s no problem with what you said from your point of view, but from Shu Tian''s perspective, it''s a big problem." Ling Junze was almost an adviser to Li Han and subconsciously worried about him. "You see, you think the key issue is about this dress, but to Shu Tian, Jiang Chujing vited her privacy and used her things at will. How could she feel?" Li Han understood everything he said, but he was confused. "It''s not a big deal, as long as there''s no next time, isn''t it?" Ling Junze shook his head in exasperation." Yes, it won''t happen again. Should she suck it up this time? That''s different. Besides, Shu Tian doesn''t care about this dress but your attitude towards Jiang Chujing. Like animals, humans have a sense of enclosure. When outsiders invade their own space, they will expel the intruder rather than give a warning." That was why Shu Tian was so resolute in the face of this matter and said it was her bottom line because she felt that Jiang Chujing vited her territory. And the territory included not only space but also a person. Jiang Chujing triggered her sense of crisis, so she had a big reaction. Although Li Han did not fully understand, he listened to Ling Junze''s words. It was easy for him to have meetings with a group of elites, but he was not good at pampering his girlfriend, so he had to ask for help. "Then what should I do?" "You don''t have to do anything. Just agree with whatever Shu Tian says and never try to convince her. Women are stubborn in this regard." Ling Junze exhorted him worriedly, "Even if she scolds you, you couldn''t refute, do you understand?" Li Han replied in a deep voice, "Yes." When he was about to hang up, Ling Junze hurriedly called him, "Han, Shu Tian is eight years younger than you. You should be more responsible and amodate yourself to her. She had made concessions to allow Jiang Chujing to live with you." Ling Junze had thought that Shu Tian would refuse this matter, but he was surprised that she would agree. Essentially, she made such a sacrifice for Li Han. Li Han''s face sagged and gave an ironic smile. "Do you think I didn''t make any concession?" He not only gave in to Shu Tian but nearly lost his bottom line. Ling Junze recalled that Li Han did seem to pamper Shu Tian. "Okay, I''ll take my words back." Before he could finish speaking, Li Han had already hung up the phone. Ling Junze suddenly felt a little envious of Li Han, who at least had a girlfriend to pamper. However, he was single. Gazing at the burning firece in front of him, Ling Junze recalled a small and fair face. After Li Han hung up the phone, Shu Tian came out in a bathrobe. Her hair was too long and thick to get dried, so she only covered it with a towel. She took a hairdryer to the bathroom to blow her hair. Li Han hesitated for a moment and then walked to the bathroom. The moment he pushed the door open, the steaming hot steam rushed out as if he had entered a fairnd. Shu Tian stood in front of the mirror, and there was no blemish on her fair-skinned face. She raised one arm to hold the hairdryer and the other hand to rx the hair. Li Han nced at it, then took a step forward to take the hairdryer from her hand. He was 1.88 meters tall, while Shu Tian was only 1.67 meters tall, so she could not shut him out. She felt the warm wind blew over her head, saving her effort. The man''s delicate fingers passed through her ck hair and gently stroked her wet hair. The seriousness in his eyes gave her the illusion that it was a great thing to dry her hair. But even so, Shu Tian took a step aside and turned to take the hairdryer. "I''ll do it myself." Li Han turned off the hairdryer button, and the bathroom suddenly quieted down. "I want to help you." Shu Tian was still angry, and her tone was a little harsh. "I can do it myself." They stared into each other''s eyes. Both of their eyes erupted into fury, but they tried to repress their rage. After a long time, Li Han felt his heart burnt, not with anger but lust. He gathered Shu Tian in his arms and raised her chin. He bent over and kissed her without any sign, invading his tongue in her mouth. As Li Han pressed her step by step, Shu Tian''s back was against the edge of the sink. Coldwater soaked her bathrobe, which cleared her head a bit. Subconsciously, she reached out to press against the sink, but Li Han grabbed her hands and confined her action. Li Han''s cold fingertips held her pulse like a sharp dagger, making Shu Tian dare not to take any movement. He was such a dominant man. Once he became serious, his powerful aura would fill the whole space, and she had no way to escape. Shu Tian could only widen her eyes and passively ept his deep kiss. Finally, Li Han bit her lips slightly, making her feel the pain without breaking the skin. Shu Tian snorted and was about to struggle, but he had already let go of herself first. Shu Tian raised her hand over her swollen lip, which was full of his smell. "What are you doing?" Li Han lowered his head and pressed it against her forehead. He gazed into her eyes at such a close distance and said in a hoarse and sexy voice. "What?" Shu Tian gazed at the sparkling light in his eyes in a daze. At such a close distance, his breathing was full of charm, making her heart beat fast. She felt that she could have lost her strength. She was about to lose her bnce. Chapter 194 Chapter 194 "Why did he kiss me all of a sudden?" Shu Tian was confused. They were just arguing. What did he want to do now? Li Han looked at the woman''s fair oval face. Her features were delicate. She looked beautiful and pure without any makeup. "You''re so beautiful." Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat, but she didn''t show her nervousness. Instead, she said coldly, "I don''t Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. want to talk to you now." "Why?" "Why?" Shu Tian rolled her eyes speechlessly and suddenly sighed. "Forget it. There is no reason. I don''t want to say, okay?" With that, she raised her hand to reach for the hairdryer in the man''s hand. Li Han raised his arm slightly and apologized almost at the same time, "I was wrong just now." Shu Tian paused and said, "Pardon?" The man looked into her with his dark eyes and repeated word by word, "I was wrong just now." Shu Tian put her hand down again and pouted. She muttered ironically with a long face, "You did nothing wrong. I was wrong. I''m fussy. I''m stingy." "Throw away that dress." Li Han frowned and interrupted her. He could not hear anyone ndering her, including Shu Tian herself. Shu Tian was surprised. "Didn''t you just..." "I know you don''t care about a dress." Li Han told her what Ling Junze had said. Although he didn''t know if his words worked, Shu Tian at least didn''t retort him. "I didn''t consider your feeling." Shu Tian was shocked to hear his apology. She couldn''t believe that after taking a shower, his attitude had changed so much. She looked up at him in puzzlement, trying to find a trace of perfunctoriness but only to find sincerity. The anger gradually dissipated. She slowly dropped her eyes and crossed her hands over her chest. Shu Tian exined to him nervously, "I''m not angry with her because of this dress. I only think that she disrespected me because she wore my dress without my permission. Besides, you gave that dress to me." "If she likes it, just tell me. I will give it to her. Even if she was the closest person to me, she shouldn''t take my stuff without permission." "Maybe you will think that I''m making a mountain out of a molehill. But it matters to me. I don''t like it." Speaking of this, she looked up quickly at the man in front of her and muttered, "Mine is mine." Li Han listened to her whispering about her grievances. He felt sorry for her because he knew that it was because she loved him. Although he didn''t say it, she might feel something different about Jiang Chujing. He had no reason to me or refute her. Just as she said, she didn''t like her deed. Then, she didn''t have to ept her. He also had no reason to persuade her to understand. Li Han put down the hairdryer in his hand and took a step forward to hold her in his arms. He rested his chins on her shoulder andforted her, "You have suffered a lot after being with me." Shu Tian could not help but blush when hearing this. She blurted out, "Indeed. I cried a lot. I didn''t like to cry before." Even during the most difficult time with Tang Zechen, she didn''t cry as much as she did now. She always cried because of Li Han''s words and actions. Maybe she cared about him too much. "Cry. Come to me when you want to cry. Don''t suffer it alone." Although he might feel sad at her crying, the thought of her crying silently in a corner tormented him even more. Shu Tian sniffed and held back her eyes. "I''m sorry. I also have many weaknesses. If this happens again, I''ll stop her." She had been very happy since she was outside. When she came back and saw this scene, she couldn''t control her temper at all. Li Han did not say anything but held her tighter. In fact, Ling Junze was right. She knew how to give in. So when he apologized, she would reflect and me herself. However, she didn''t have to. Shu Tian nestled in his arms for a while. After calming down, she touched her dripping hair and wrapped her arms around his strong waist. "Aren''t you going to help me dry my hair?" Li Han''s clothes on his arms were already wet. He didn''t care at all. Instead, he turned on the hairdryer and gently dry her hair face to face. The warm breeze brushed across her scalp, as tempting as his warm fingertips. Shu Tian looked at his sexy jawline and felt like dreaming in pink clouds. This was the first time Li Han had dried her hair. She felt magical and unbelievable. Shu Tian sighed with emotion, "When I first met you, I never thought that one day you would help me dry my hair." At that time, they didn''t know each other well. In her eyes, he was proud and never lowered his head for anyone. He was so aloft, unreachable, and potent that she subconsciously wanted to stay away whenever their rtionship went deeper. Shu Tian had never imagined having a harmonious rtionship with him. She was scared. Everything changed in the blink of an eye. After half a year, he was drying her hair gently. At the thought of this, she felt like dreaming as if everything was just a bubble and would disappear in the blink of an eye. He sensed her deep affection in her gaze and raised his hand to tuck the hair behind her ear. A faint smile appeared on his face and he said. "I didn''t think about it either." There were too many women around him. Although he did not ask for it, countless women wanted to pounce on him. He had seen too many people with different personalities and purposes. So he became indifferent and cold. Li Han thought that he would never find someone who could read his mind for the rest of his life. He never expected one. But he didn''t expect her to be the one who moved him and changed his mind. When did he have a crush on her? It seemed that it was destined since the first time they met. "Li Han, do you think we''ll be separated one day?" Her eyshes trembled violently. Shu Tian didn''t dare to face such a problem. Just thinking about it for a moment, she began to feel depressed. If it really happened one day, Shu Tian didn''t know how to face it. Her hair was already half dry. Hearing her question, Li Han turned off the hairdryer and answered her with a serious look, "Do you have no faith in me or yourself?" Chapter 195 Chapter 195 After a long time, Shu Tian replied, "Maybe I have no faith in myself." Then she added, "Your family hasn''t epted me yet, not to mention Jiang Chujing''s conditions. Also, I am worried about what others will think of me. There are still many obstacles along the way. Although these obstacles were invisible and intangible, they were always on Shu Tian''s mind. She didn''t have much confidence in herself, and perhaps even she didn''t think that she was a good match for Li Han. This man was very outstanding. The longer she had been with him, the more she felt his passion and sincerity, as well as his purity, and those were all hardly seen in sessful people. "Don''t underestimate yourself." Li Han knew that she had some stress, but he didn''t expect her to be that anxious. "I''m not a rich second generation. I have the right to live life at my will, and I am also capable enough of choosing the one with whom I will spend my entire life. Jiang Chujing and my family won''t be a problem. You''re the one who ys the key role." He had said this before. However, it caused Shu Tian stressed even more. She didn''t want to bring Li Han a negative impact, nor did she want him to quarrel with his family. She even wondered if his parents had known Jiang Chujing''s existence. Shu Tian shook her and interrupted this terrible thought. "Tian?" Seeing that she was in a trance, Li Han called her softly. Shu Tian recovered from her absent-mindedness and forced a smile, "Maybe it is because our rtionship bes deeper, which inevitably makes me consider too much. But don''t worry, I know how to make myself feel better." Li Han stared into her eyes, knowing that she felt uneasy, but he didn''t want to push too hard. He stroked her face, "Just let me know if you''re unhappy, all right?" "Okay, don''t worry." "And," He bent down, looked deep into her eyes, and said firmly, "We won''t be apart." He could not imagine that he would fall in love with someone else, except for Shu Tian. Love was so luxurious for him that he could only love her and wanted to give his heart to her. He wanted to focus all his attention on her. He badly needed the feeling of being firmly loved and believed. His eyes were too aglow, so Shu Tian felt his desire immediately. He just frankly and decisively let her know his mind. Shu Tian nodded with red eyes and snuggled up in the man''s warm arms. Let it be. He had done so much for her and changed so much. Then she had to be more determined. [...] Day by day, ever since thest conflict over pajamas, Jiang Chujing had been much more polite to Shu Tian. She did not do any more annoying things. asionally, she went to please Li Han willingly. As long as she didn''t go too far, Shu Tian would turn a blind eye. Fortunately, over the past few days, her condition had not continued to worsen, nor had she shown any signs of self-harm that she had been worried about before. George said that the family life had given her warmth and help. There was no way to know whether it was true or not. She could only say that the result was not bad. As the new year approached, everyone got busy at work, and even Shu Tian had to work overtime, not to mention Li Han. He had spent at least 12 hours on work and could only sleep for five or six hours. He even lost weight because of the hectic work. Seeing that every family had done the decorations for Spring Festival, Shu Tian couldn''t help but want to buy some ornaments. By coincidence, when Shu Tian was on leave, Ye Lihua asked her to go shopping. She didn''t want to face Jiang Chujing at home, so she agreed. They went to the mall near home. There was still half a month to go to Spring Festival, but it had taken on a festive air. Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei lived here, and they were familiar with the shops here. As soon as they entered a shop, they heard the boss, a middle-aged woman, praising, "Oh, I haven''t seen you for a long time. Is this your daughter? She looked so pretty." Embarrassed by the praise, Shu Tian quickly waved her hand and went to the side to choose Spring Festival couplets. Ye Lihua chatted with her old acquaintance, the boss, pleasantly. Shu Tian liked a pair of Spring Festival couplets as she believed they contained auspicious omens. Compared with those cliches, the couplets were not so vulgar. She picked them up, imagined the look of them being posted at the entrance gate of Imperial Vi, and felt satisfied. Later, she picked out a few more red paper cuttings that were believed could bring luck. There were all kinds of them, and she could paste them in different ces. There were also rednterns, which would look good for sure if she hung them next to the door. This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. In the end, she collected a bagful of stuff, took them over, and asked the boss, "Hi, how much are these in total?" The boss was chatting with Ye Lihua happily. She nced at the pile of things in her hand and smiled warmly. "Why are you buying so much? Do you have enough space for them at home?" Shu Tian didn''t know how to exin and said awkwardly, "Except for myself, I also bought some for my friend. " Friends? She bought a friend Spring Festival couplets? The boss was acute, realizing something immediately. She smiled even more brightly and looked at Ye Lihua. "I told you that your daughter is beautiful. She must have many admirers. Who would be so lucky to marry your daughter?" She was talkative and did not make people feel ufortable. Everyone knew about Shu Tian''s divorce. Many people gossiped behind her and said that no one would want to marry her. Although Ye Lihua did not show it, she was angry inside. Hearing this, although she replied modestly, her face was already beaming with smiles. "You tter me." "I am just telling the truth." After chatting for a while, Ye Lihua finally paid and left. She immediately took Shu Tian''s hand and asked, "Did you buy these for Li Han?" Shu Tian knew she had no option but to node perfunctorily. "Yes, I thought I had been here, so why not buy some for him? It''s not a big deal at all." "It''s not a big deal?" Ye Lihua gave her a funny stare. "Do you think I''m a fool?" "You''re not stupid. You''re the smartest. No one on this is smarter than you, so Mrs. Ye, can you let me go now?" "Hey, you!" Ye Lihua tut. She raised her hand and patted Shu Tian''s arm. "I mean, shouldn''t you let us know about this?" "Oh, mom." Shu Tian bent down and rubbed her head against Ye Lihua''s shoulder. She exined to her like a cute kid, "I''ll let you see him when there''s a chance." "Really?" "I promise." "Okay then." Ye Lihua was slightly relieved this time. "You didn''t have a good end with Tang Zechen before, and now you are with Li Han. Your father and I are afraid that you will suffer again. And regarding these things, you will need to make your own decisions, so you can share it with me whenever you want." Ye Lihua''s words touched Shu Tian to heart. It seemed they had changed a lot these days. Ye Lihua had always wanted to get involved in her love life before, but now she respected her own thoughts more. "Mom..." Shu Tian pressed her lips and couldn''t help but cry, feeling unspeakable pains in her heart. Ye Lihua turned her face away and patted the back of her hand. "Alright, Spring Festival is around the corner. Don''t be unhappy. Let''s go and buy some stuff from your Uncle Zhao." After the shopping, it was almost one o''clock in the afternoon when they got home. Shu Changlei cooked fish at home and waited for them. As soon as he saw them at the door, he took all the stuff in their hands and put them in the kitchen and living room. As soon as Shu Tian gave all the things to Shu Changlei, the phone in her pocket rang. She took it out and saw that it was Li Han. She nced at the kitchen and saw that Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei were busy. Then she sneaked into her room and cautiously said, "Hello?" "Are you done shopping?" The man''s clear voice came through the microphone, so deep and pleasing that her ears couldn''t help but press against the phone closer. Chapter 196 Chapter 196 Shu Tiany on her small bed and looked at the pink ceiling above her head, feeling overjoyed. "I have finished shopping. I bought several pairs of spring festival couplets, the Chinese character "Fu", and rednterns. I''ll stick them at hometer." The man on the other end of the phone paused. "You want to stick it in Imperial Vi?" "Yes, you don''t?" Shu Tian fiddled with it casually. Did he think it was tacky to stick these things on the wall? "Yes." Li Han said without thinking. He just felt it strange as no one did this kind of thing before. Every year, it was quiet and cold in his house so the new year was just more lonely days for him than usual. Thinking that she would make some change this year, he suddenly felt that it would be very interesting. "When are youing back?" At the thought of this, he couldn''t help to see her. Shu Tian thought for a while. "About seven o''clock after I finish dinner. I don''t want to go back if you''re not at home." They would be ufortable with each other if she met Jiang Chujing and there might be some trouble. "Then I''ll pick you up." "Okay." Shu Tian was suddenly in a good mood and sat up straight from the bed. "My mother said we would eat dumplings tonight. I''ll bring some back for you." Li Han had just finished the meeting and did not eat lunch. The intense work suppressed his eagerness to eat but he was unexpectedly a little hungry when he heard this. He held back his seriousness and let out a rxed smile. "Am I going to taste my mother-inw''s cooking so soon?" His words made Shu Tian blush to the bottom of her neck. She obviously didn''t think so... "I..." "You seem to be in a hurry so you let me get in touch with her in advance." Li Han interrupted her and deliberately misinterpreted her meaning. "Why? Are you in a hurry to let me see your parents?" "That''s not what I meant!" Shu Tian thought he really misunderstood and hurriedly exined, "I just thought of you and want to bring you some food. I didn''t think about anything else!" "You don''t have to pretend yourself in front of me. I can understand." "Understand what?" She didn''t think so. She just happened to think of him, okay?! Shu Tian had a feeling that she could not clear herself even if she jumped into the Yellow River. She finally gave up exining and shut her mouth. Anyway, no matter how she exined it, he had already had his own idea. "Whatever. I don''t want to talk to you anymore." Li Han seemed to be able to imagine her expression at this moment listening to her tone. He smiled so happily as she couldn''t see him now. "See you tonight, my dear housekeeper." After saying that, he hung up and did not give Shu Tian a chance to answer him back. Housekeeper? Good, she got another nickname now. Although it didn''t sound so pleasant, his voice was so gentle that Shu Tian was so happy and her heart was suddenly softened like a ball of sticine. She was lying on the bed in a daze when someone knocked on the door twice from outside. It was Ye Lihua. "Tian,e out to eat. Your father has already prepared a bowl of rice for you." Only then did Shu Tian put away her phone and hurriedly get out of bed to put on her shoes. "Okay, okay, I''ming!" [...] Shu Tian rested at home for a while after dinner and then helped Ye Lihua make dumplings in the evening. The stuffings were carrots and pork, rare but delicious. When the carrots were boiled, they were all juicy and tasted delicious. Shu Tian ate a whole te by herself and stopped eating until she couldn''t eat anymore. Just as she was thinking about how to tell Ye Lihua about bringing some back, Ye Lihua took the lead and said, "Bring some home as you like it so much. We made a lot and it would be a waste if we can''t eat them up." Shu Tian was thinking about a good excuse and she immediately nodded hearing her words. "Okay, okay, give me more!" At seven o''clock in the evening, Li Han''s car appeared downstairs on time. Shu Tian looked down from the fourth floor and saw the Bentley under the tree which was really outstanding among the ordinary cars. She went back to her room and greeted Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei. "Mom and dad, it''s gettingte and I''ll go now. You two have been busy all day. Go to bed early." "It''s still early. Your father and I can''t fall asleep now. It''s not easy for you toe back, stay longer!" Ye Lihua wanted to take Shu Tian''s hand as she spoke. Shu Changlei stopped her. "She has something to do tomorrow. It''s seven o''clock now and it''s almost time for her to go back." Shu Tian nodded hurriedly. "Yes, mom. I have to go to work tomorrow." "All right, all right. Girls wouldn''t stay at home any longer when they grew up. You''re just like this!" Ye Lihua packed the rest of the dumplings for her. One box was cooked and the other one was not. "Put Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. this raw one in the fridge when you go back. It''s convenient to cook when you are busy." "Okay, mom, I''m not a child anymore." "You are still a child to me." Ye Lihua handed her the food box and whispered to her at the door, "You have to think about the rtionship between you and the boy surnamed Li carefully, okay?" "Okay." Shu Tian smiled and waved at her. "Don''t worry, I''m leaving now." Ye Lihua shook her head helplessly watching Shu Tian walking down two stairs a step. She closed the door and turned around to the room. When she saw Shu Changlei sitting on the sofa in the living room, she was already clear. "The car downstairs hasn''t left yet?" "No." "Hey, didn''t you say that the car cost more than two million dors? Would our child suffer if she gets along with such a person..." Ye Lihua leaned over to Shu Changlei and said worriedly. Shu Changlei took a sip of ck tea and sighed earnestly. "Let''s not worry about the child anymore now. Let her decide herself. We can''t tell a person from his appearance." Ye Lihua thought so and didn''t say anything more. [...] Shu Tian didn''t know that her parents had seen Li Han. She trotted all the way to the car and hurried him away. "Go, go, go!" Li Han nced at the seat belt beside her and reached out to buckle it for her. "Why are you in such a hurry?" "I''m afraid my parents upstairs will see you." Li Han was unhappy hearing this. Why should he hide from them now? He immediately asked in a low voice, "Why can''t they see me?" "No, I''m just a little guilty." Shu Tian shook her body coquettishly. "Let''s go, please!" Li Han couldn''t do anything when she acted like this so he shook his head and started the car to leave. He drove his Bentley all the way out of the neighborhood gate along the path. Shu Tian was finally relieved and shook the dumplings in her hand in front of him. "Have you eaten yet? I brought them for you." The man nced at her from the corner of his eye. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly realized something and frowned. "Where''s your ring?" Chapter 197 Chapter 197 Shu Tian''s outstretched hand froze, and then she quickly withdrew and ced it on herp. She was a little flustered. "I took it off when I washed my hands just now. I, I will wear it now..." She hurriedly took out the diamond ring from her pocket and put it on her finger in a sh. She even reached out to show it to him. "Look." However, Li Han, with a cold expression, did not give her any response. The atmosphere in the car was a little subtle. Shu Tian swallowed silently, knowing that she had touched Li Han''s nerve. She did not dare to say anything, afraid that a word might be a trigger. Although he didn''t say anything, the car sped up a lot. It was more than seven o''clock in the evening. Although it was past the peak hours, there were still a lot of cars on the street. With the oversized SUV shuttling through the traffic, Shu Tian couldn''t help but whisper to him, "Slow down..." Li Han, however, acted as if he hadn''t heard it. He was still driving very fast. It took him just forty minutes instead of more than an hour at usual times to get home. The car stopped at the entrance of the vi. Shu Tian felt dizzy with her pale face all the way. She unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car. It was not until standing for a while that she felt less ufortable. After a while, she turned to look at the person sitting in the car who had not moved. Feeling a little depressed, she opened the door and stared at him silently. "Don''t you get out of the car?" Only then did he put his eyes on her, as if there was ayer of mist in his eyes, which looked mysterious. He didn''t say anything and waited quietly. However, the little woman standing in front of him was still silent after a long time. He had no patience anymore, pulling out the secretpartment and taking a pack of cigarettes. As he handed one to his mouth, he said, "If there''s nothing you want to say, you can go in first." Only then did Shu Tian realize the seriousness of the matter. Gritting her teeth, she stepped forward and got back into the car. "I didn''t take it off on purpose. Don''t be angry..." "Not on purpose?" Although he was asking her, there was not much trust in his tone. Shu Tian was speechless because she actually did it on purpose. She was afraid that Ye Lihua would ask about it when seeing the ring, so she subconsciously took it off and put it in her pocket. As for her motive for doing so, she could not figure it out. Perhaps it was because she was too nervous at that time. Li Han lowered the window a little and let the outside air take away the smoke in the car. Although he was extremely upset at this moment, he still cared about her feelings. This kind of care had be a subconscious habit of him. They sat in the car without saying a word, Shu Tian wanted to exin but she didn''t know what to say. After a moment of silence, the cigarette between his fingertips had reached the butt. He reached out to open the cigarette case in the car and put the butt out. Seeing that he was about to reach out for another one, Shu Tian frowned slightly and raised her hand to grab his arm. "Stop, or you''ll cough." If Li Han really wanted to break free from her, he would only need a little strength. But he didn''t, seeming to be really grabbed by her. In his ear, the woman''s soft voice came, "If you mind, I won''t take it off anymore, okay?" "That''s not what I care about." He finally opened his mouth and looked at her with a look of judgment that she had not seen for a long time. "You are afraid that your parents will know about our rtionship." He said it in a confident tone instead of asking. This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. From her urging him to drive faster to hiding the ring, it was obvious what she was thinking. "I''m not afraid." Shu Tian tightened the lunch box in her hand. "I''m just being careful." Though herst failed marriage did not seem to have affected her at all, in fact, some of her actions indeed changed. She was not as anxious as before to introduce her lover to her parents, but more cautious. But this caution did not conflict with loving him. "What are you afraid of? Do I make you feel unreliable, or do you always want to leave me one day?" Li Han sneered. "Or do you think your parents will not be satisfied with me?" His aggressive attitude made Shu Tian a little breathless, and she lowered her head slightly. "No, I''m just not ready. It''s my problem, not yours." "Shu Tian." He rarely called her name in such a serious tone, unless there was something serious to talk to her about. She felt worried, meeting his deep eyes in fear. Then, he asked confusedly, "What are you hesitating about?" "I didn''t hesitate." Shu Tian tried to exin, not wanting him to misunderstand. "I just need some time to adjust myself, Li Han. I had an unhappy marriage. Even if it was only nominal, it left a deep impact on me. I know it''s unfair to you, but I can''t control these negative emotions..." She wanted to tell her family about him without hesitation, but it was so difficult to say it. That fear was not temporary, nor was it because of something or someone. It was just quietly lingering on her mind, preventing her from doing so. At this point, she had already put her cards on the table. This indescribable feeling made her feel deeply inferior. "I don''t know how to exin it to you. I''m not afraid. I just need some time." She said. She loved Li Han, much deeper than her love for Tang Zechen. The deeper she loved him, the harder it was to take this step. The lunch box in her hand was still warm, and Shu Tian could not help but hold it tighter as if she could get a trace of warmth andfort. Li Han pressed his thin lips together and looked sideways at her disappointed sad face. The lunch box in her hands was filled with dumplings she made for him and he also noticed the Spring Festival couplets in the red paper bag. In fact, she was working hard on getting over her past little by little. But she just could not easily forget her past since she was deeply hurt. He didn''t realize how hard she tried until now. All of a sudden, he was filled with guilt and remorse. It was a quiet night, but he felt so ufortable that he felt suffocated as if he had been strangled. "I''m sorry." He had apologized many times recently, which meant that he had wronged her many times. Then, he said hesitantly, "I was too busy today, and I missed you and wanted to see you all day. But when I saw you, you urged me to hurry up and you''ve taken off the ring. So I couldn''t control my emotions at that moment." "I know." Shu Tian didn''t me him, feeling it was her fault. "I was too anxious." Li Han reached out to grab her little hand on herp, looking at her gently, "No matter how much time you need, I''ll wait for you." Chapter 198 Chapter 198 "Li Han..." Shu Tian was so moved that she didn''t know what to say. "Good girl, don''t be sad." He took the lunch box from herp. "It''s going to be cold in a while. Why don''t youe in and eat with me?" Shu Tian held back her tears. "Okay." They walked into the vi, the one behind the other. It was not veryte yet, almost eight o''clock. Usually, Jiang Chujing was upstairs at this time, but today, for the first time, she was sitting in the living room downstairs watching TV. Nanny Li worked alone in the dining room, Jiang Chujing didn''t apany her. Hearing the noise, Jiang Chujing looked over and saw they hade back together. Her eyes darkened a little, but she still moved forward enthusiastically. "Han, you''re back." After that, she looked at Shu Tian and said politely and perfunctorily, "Miss Shu, you''reing too." "Yes." Shu Tian was not in a good mood and didn''t want to talk to her. She looked at Nanny Li who was walking over. "Nanny Li, I''m sorry to trouble you to heat up the dumplings." Nanny Li smiled and quickly waved her hand. She took the lunch box from Li Han and hurried to the kitchen to use the microwave again. Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Jiang Chujing''s fists were clenched, the nails digging deep into her palms, and she asked with feigned curiosity, "Who made the dumplings?" "My parents." Shu Tian changed her shoes and said humbly, "You can try itter." Unexpectedly, Jiang Chujing changed her attitude, "Okay, I haven''t eaten dumplings since I came back. I almost forgot how the dumplings taste." Shu Tian frowned. She was a little unhappy but didn''t say anything. It was just a few dumplings. No matter what she thought, there was no need to talk about it. "How do you feel today?" Li Han asked her as he pulled the tie off. Jiang Chujing turned to look at him, and her face broke into smiles when catching sight of Li Han. "It was good. I just woke up a little dizzy in the morning. Everything else was fine." "Junze got someone home tomorrow night to give you a systematic physical examination. Prepare in advance and don''t eat too much." This afternoon, Ling Junze also reminded him that a half-month checkup should be done. Jiang Chujing nodded. "I see, Han. You can go up and change first." Li Han led Shu Tian upstairs. As soon as they left, Jiang Chujing went into the kitchen. The dumplings had not been cooked for long and only needed to be heated for a while. Nanny Li was moving the dumplings from the lunch box to the te and taking two tes of vinegar as a dip. It was rare for Jiang Chujing to help in the kitchen. She took two pairs of chopsticks out and looked at the two tes of white and chubby dumplings on the table. She turned to look upstairs and put one into her mouth before anyone was ready. To be honest, the fragrance of radish mixed with the strong smell of the meat filling, and one of them left a fragrance in her mouth. She didn''t expect Shu Tian''s parents to be good at cooking. No wonder she brought dumplings to Li Han. Then came the second and third... In a blink of an eye, she ate up more than half of a te of dumplings. When Nanny Li finished cleaning up the kitchen and saw it, she was almost stunned. She wanted to remind her, but because of her identity, she couldn''t say anything. When Shu Tian and Li Han came downstairs, the dumplings on the dining table were scattered on the tes. It was obvious that they had been eaten. The one who did it was sitting behind the table, still drinking the hot water leisurely. Seeing here down, she even said shamelessly, "Miss Shu, your parents are really good at cooking. This dumpling is one of the best I''ve ever eaten." Shu Tian didn''t feel honored to receive such an evaluation. She really didn''t know that Jiang Chujing was so thick-skinned and could do such a thing with poor parenting. She raised her lower lip speechlessly. "As long as you like it." It was obvious that the dumplings were prepared for Li Han. What mattered was not how delicious and rare the food was but the regard behind it. Now she ate them without saying anything. Everyone would be upset, including Li Han. He looked at the mess on the table and at the woman sitting in the chair in surprise. Receiving his gaze, Jiang Chujing said pitifully. "I''m sorry, I can''t help but be a little greedy because it''s too delicious. My parents used to like to make dumplings for me when they were still alive. Dumplings are the most indispensable during the holidays. Now that I haven''t eaten them for so many years, it just so happened that Miss Shu cooked them and brought them over. I''m really excited." Every time the atmosphere was subtle, she would always find an excuse on grounds of her parents that people had to believe it. What Li Han couldn''t let himself hear was that how her parents were before they died. Every time she mentioned it, Li Han would recall what happened before. It was painful. Shu Tian didn''t want to make things difficult for him, so she simply pushed the te in front of her. "Eat more if you like. There are still a lot of raw ones." Jiang Chujing was a little surprised by what she said. But her n seeded. She feltfortable inside. "Han,e and try it too!" Li Han looked at the dumplings on the te. They were thin and filled with a small white belly, which was visually delicious. He sat down. He was actually a bit of a neat freak. The dumplings had already been picked. But thinking that it was made by Shu Tian''s parents, he picked up his chopsticks and picked one up. Shu Tian blocked his hand and looked down at the man. "I''ll ask Nanny Li to cook some more for you." As she spoke, she took the tes off the table and went into the kitchen, ordering Nanny Li to cook the raw dumplings that had just been ced in the refrigerator. The steam rose and the white dumplings went in. After a while, they floated up. Shu Tian stood next to Nanny Li and waited. Not long after, the crystal dumplings were picked up. "Put it on two tes." Shu Tian handed over another te. Nanny Li took it and naturally packed it separately. In fact, one te was enough, but they were afraid that such an awkward situation would happen again. "Miss Shu, don''t be angry. Just take it as pity for her!" Nanny Li whispered in her ear, but in fact, she was also defending her. This Miss Jiang had gone too far in doing things. What she did just now really shocked others. Shu Tian smiled, patted Nanny Li on the shoulder, andforted her, "I''m fine." Out of the kitchen, Jiang Chujing was still sitting in her chair, talking to Li Han about the physical examination tomorrow. When she saw hering over, her eyes fell on the dumplings on the te. Her eyes shed without saying anything. Li Han looked at the heat from the te, which made his heart warm. He put one into her mouth, and the fragrance overflowed. He couldn''t help but chew a few more times. ustomed to the exquisite dishes outside, he would also want to think of this kind of heartwarming home-cooked food, but he was used to living alone, and no one had done this for him for a long time. "Is it delicious?" Shu Tian asked him with a smile. He nodded and praised genuinely, "It''s delicious." "If you like, I''ll ask my mother to make it for you during the new year. She can make any stuffing. She''s good at it." Seeing that he liked it, Shu Tian was also happy and couldn''t help but show off. Jiang Chujing''s heart tightened when she heard this. New year? Did she still want her family toe here for the new year? However, the next second, Li Han''s answer made her even more ufortable. He nodded and agreed, "Okay." Jiang Chujing clenched her hands tightly under the table. The hatred in her eyes at the moment she lowered her head made people shudder. She would never let this day happen! Chapter 199 Chapter 199 The next day, Shu Tian went to thepany with Li Han as usual. It was almost the end of the year. The busiest time had passed, and they finished the work they were doing. Now arrived the time of rxation and expectation, followed by ns for the new year shift. Most of the employees of the HY Law Office were from outside the country. Shu Tian and Zhang Rui''er were the only locals in this group, so Shu Tian volunteered to be on duty. "I have time from the fifth day to the eighth day." Thest three days were thest days that others liked to be on duty. It was tiring to go home all the way ande back again. With Shu Tian''s words, everyone let up for spending a peaceful year. They didn''t need to run back and forth like before. Everyone thanked Shu Tian one after another. Aftering to thepany for so long, she felt the warmth between colleagues for the first time. In fact, it was just a matter of taking care of each other. She would try her best to do whatever she could do. Over time, everyone''s opinion of her would change. "By the way, you all know about your year-end bonus this year, right?" Colleague Liu whispered, "How much can you get?" "Probably a lot this year. Didn''t director Wei insinuate at thest meeting?" "Yes, ourpany give away a really big year-end award to everyone every year. I heard from the Purchasing Department that they have bought a lot of electronic products for the annual meeting. We will have one of them." "Really..." Shu Tian''s heart warmed up as she listened to the various discussions around her. The gossip and along and contacting, from being ostracized at the beginning to now, Shu Tian had the feeling of integrating into the collective for the first time. In the evening, her colleagues organized thest group dinner of the year. Wei Xiangming also went. Shu Tian told Li Han in advance and went to a restaurant near thepany in her colleagues'' car. Wei Xiangming booked a private room in advance, and the twelve people made a circle around the table. They each ordered a dish, and Shu Tian ordered boiled duck-blood curd and tripe in chili broth, a total of 12 dishes. After that, Wei Xiangming asked everyone for the first time, "This is thest dinner of our department this year. Do you want to drink?" Liu was the first to agree. "Not liquor. Just beer!" "Okay, I''ll drink with you!" One of them said that, and the rest lost their reserve. A few female colleagues who liked to drink also ordered a few bottles of specially brewed beer. They spent a pleasant night during the meal. In the end, everyone toasted Wei Xiangming and said polite words to each other. It was Shu Tian''s turn. "Director Wei, I especially thank you for trusting me and giving me great support on my work. If you weren''t inpany, I might not have been able to stick to the work for so long." If Liu Wei had always been her boss, she might have given up halfway. Wei Xiangming, who had left office, no longer had the leadership style and got along well with everyone. Hearing Shu Tian''s words, she smiled like a little girl who had been rewarded. "I''m so embarrassed by your praise." A gossipy colleague looked at Shu Tian. "Shu Tian, I really didn''t expect you do well at work. To be honest, I had a lot of prejudice against you back then. I thought you were a vase. Now it seems that even if you are a vase, you are also a powerful vase!" A few drinks had loosened everyone''s tongue. Of course, Shu Tian did not mind what he said. She replied jokingly, "I ept it as praise." "This year hase to a sessful end. Next year, we will work hard together. If anyone has done anything wrong in the past, we should support one another." Wei Xiangming''s words were like keys to each other, opening the locked heart. Shu Tian was also happy and inevitably drank a few sses, but she controlled the amount and did not drink too much. When the dinner was over, it was already 8: 30 pm. It was not early. Everyone had to work tomorrow This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. and went back to their respective homes. Shu Tian did not ask Li Han to send someone to pick him up. Afraid that he would be distracted, she called a taxi. An hourter, the car stopped at the entrance of Imperial Vi. Shu Tian got out of the car, unscrewed the cap of mineral water in her hand, and took a sip to dilute the smell of alcohol in her mouth. After repeating it several times, she reached out and opened the password door of the vi. She put her fingertips on it and the door opened with a soft click. It was quiet in the living room, and Nanny Li was the only one cleaning. When she saw hering back, she immediately stepped forward and said, "Miss Shu, you''re back." Shu Tian nodded and put on her slippers. "Nanny Li, where''s Li Han?" "Mr. Li and doctor Ling are upstairs." She was slightly surprised. "Not finished yet?" "Yes, it''s been more than an hour. It''s probablyplicated." Nanny Li''s sharp nose caught the smell of alcohol on her body. "Miss Shu, have you drunk? Do you need some hangover soup?" Shu Tian waved her hand. "No, Nanny Li. I didn''t drink much, there''s no need to do that." She carried her bag. Fortunately, she walked with smooth steps. After climbing upstairs, Shu Tian was about to walk to the bedroom. When her hand was about to touch the door, she suddenly heard a woman''s painful cry from the guest room at the end of the corridor. She paused, guessed who it was, frowned slightly, and turned to the other side. The closer she walked, the more obvious the cry became. It was depressing, painful, and tearful. It gave her the goosebumps just hearing that. The door of the guest room was notpletely closed. Maybe for drinking a little wine, she directly raised her hand and pushed the door open. In the bedroom, a white instrument that was half a person tall was shining, and all the light sources shone on Jiang Chujing''s body. She was wearing a white istion suit, but it still couldn''t stop the strong light from stimting her. She looked very painful and grabbed Li Han''s arm with one hand. It seemed that Li Han couldn''t bear to look at it. He pacified her in her back with his head turned. The concern in his eyes almost overflowed, and the slight trembling of his palm showed the Even though she knew it was out of the need to check, Shu Tian''s heart was still stabbed when she saw this scene. No one liked her man to be intimate with another woman, but she could not say anything. Shu Tian stood at the door for nearly five minutes, and finally, Junze find her first. "Shu Tian, you''re here." Li Han looked over. He had only been observing Jiang Chujing''s situation just now, but he did not notice when she came. His big palm fell from Jiang Chujing''s body, and his arm was still grabbed by her. He couldn''t leave, so he could only make a slight hint with his eyes. Seeing that Ling Junze was also busy, Shu Tian pulled out a forced smile and tactfully turned to leave the room. The door was closed, isting what was going on inside. Standing in the corridor, Shu Tian gently closed her eyes, as if this would reduce her worries. She could only pray in her heart that such a day would notst long. Chapter 200 Chapter 200 Li Han saw off Ling Junze and went back to the bedroom. It was almost midnight. He gently pushed the door open. On the big soft bed, the woman was sleeping soundly on one side. He walked over quietly, his footsteps on the ground were very light, afraid of disturbing the person in her dreams. He walked up to her and unexpectedly smelled a faint smell of alcohol. The man''s handsome brows lowered a little, and he leaned over to sniff a few times. The smell was indeed from her body. Did she drink at dinner tonight? It must be that she couldn''t resist her colleagues'' enthusiasm, so it was not her fault. Li Han looked down at the pale and red face on the pillow. He didn''t know if it was because the room was too hot or because of the alcohol, her face blushed, which looked seductive. He raised his hand to tuck her in and straightened up. Just as he was about to take a shower, the sleeping woman behind him suddenly cursed in a low voice, "Bastard." Li Han stopped abruptly and turned around again with confusion, "What?" "Bastard." She was still sleeping and stammered, "Big bastard Li Han..." The face of the man who was named was a little dark. It was said that one would dream at night what they thought in the day. It seemed that she must have scolded him a lot in her heart during the day. Taking a deep breath, he raised his hand and pinched her cheek helplessly. He wanted to punish her, but he didn''t use much force, "I take good care of you, but you scold me a bastard. Are you ungrateful?" He knew that when she saw him be with Jiang Chujing, she was definitely unhappy. Recently, there was really nothing that made her happy, so he was willing to be scolded by her. He could tolerate it as long as she didn''t feel ufortable. Under the soft wallmp in the bedroom, the man''s eyes were filled with tenderness that no one else could see. He leaned down again, and kissed her smooth forehead with his thin lips, "As long as you don''t leave me, everything else will be up to you." [...] It was the next morning when Shu Tian woke up. She rarely took a break from work. She took two days off before the new year. Thinking that the Spring Festival couplets she boughtst time had not been posted, she chose to post them today. She felt that she should decorate the house, after all, it was the Spring Festival. She got up from the bed, and it was empty beside her. Li Han got up early, finished his workout, and then went to thepany. She seemed to have heard some noise. Looking at the empty side, she felt disappointed. He had left again before they could say a word since they came backst night. After a while, Shu Tian calmed down and got out of bed to wash up. She went to the cloakroom to change into afortable fluffy sweater and pants of the same style. Today, she probably had to climb up high. It was better to wear morefortable clothes. When she went downstairs, Nanny Li had already prepared breakfast for her. Knowing that Shu Tian liked to eat toast, Nanny Li deliberately learned how to use the toaster. She was very considerate. Roasted bread with a spoonful of homemade blueberry jam was very appetizing. Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Jiang Chujing also wanted to eat it, but the doctor told her not to eat too much sweetness, so she could only drink the unappetizing porridge in the bowl. She scooped a spoonful of porridge into her mouth and took the initiative to talk, "Miss Shu, I really envy you for being able to eat what you want to eat. Unlike me, I can only eat porridge. There is no fun in life at all." Shu Tian didn''t expect Jiang Chujing to take the initiative to talk to her, and she didn''t know why Jiang Chujing said this. Did Jiang Chujing pretend to be pitiful or was she seeking sympathy? Shu Tian was not in the mood to think about it, and she just said coldly, "I believe that people like Miss Jiang will find a lot of fun for themselves, not just in eating." After that, she smiled at Jiang Chujing. She looked nothing unusual, although her words sounded somewhat harsh. Jiang Chujing was speechless but could not say anything more. She could only let it go. After breakfast, Shu Tian and Nanny Li pulled out the triangrdder from the warehouse together. She picked a pair of big Spring Festival couplets and hung them up. Nanny Li held thedder under her and kept telling her to be careful. The red Spring Festival couplets were pasted to the door. Thenterns were hung high on both sides, and the remainingntern was hung on a tree in the front yard. The vi looked deserted before looked lively now. "Miss Shu, you have good taste. The Spring Festival couplets andnterns are beautiful!" Nanny Li also smiled brightly. She used to post these things at home, so she was familiar with them. Shu Tian smiled sheepishly, "I bought them from the market. They aren''t something rare." "Even so, Miss Shu is so thoughtful. Sir must be very happy to see these when hees back!" Nanny Li had gotten along with Li Han for a period of time and she had known about his temper. Although Mr. Li looked cold, he was actually very kind. This sentence happened to be heard by Jiang Chujing, who had just walked over. She frowned and secretly red at Nanny Li. This old woman was so talkative as a servant. When she became Mrs. Li in the future, Nanny Li would be the first one to get fired! Although Jiang Chujing cursed in her heart, she looked kind on the surface. She nced at what they had done and said perfunctorily, "Looks good." After that, she changed the subject, "But... Han doesn''t like these messy things at home. Miss Shu, you''d better not continue to do it. Don''t waste your time." She thought Shu Tian had done this on her own, but she didn''t know that Shu Yi had already told Li Han. At this moment, Shu Tian''s face darkened when she heard Jiang Chujing''s seemingly gentle but actually weird tone. She did not directly say that she had asked for Li Han''s permission, but deliberately said, "It''s okay. If he doesn''t like them, I will remove them. Miss Jiang doesn''t have to worry about me." She directly isted Jiang Chujing by saying so. Whether Li Han would like the decoration or not, it was Shu Tian and Li Han''s business. And Jiang Chujing, an outsider, didn''t have the right to interfere in it. How could Jiang Chujing not understand it? She immediately retorted, "Miss Shu, are you hostile to me? I''m just afraid that you would waste energy but get nothing. There is no other meaning." "Really?" Shu Tian nced at Jiang Chujing from the corner of her eye, and there was a chill in her eyes, "Thank you, I appreciate it." After she finished speaking, she stopped looking at Jiang Chujing and continued to work on her own business. From time to time, she asked Nanny Li for advice andpletely left Jiang Chujing aside. She treated Jiang Chujing as an invisible person. Jiang Chujing was so angry that she went inside to pick up her phone and wanted to call Li Han. She hesitated whether to call him or not. She struggled for a long time and finally gave up. Now Li Han was obsessed with Shu Tian, so he might not speak up for her. Just as she was thinking about it, the phone in her hand vibrated. She thought it was Li Han. She looked down in surprise and found that it was Li Wei. The joy on her face disappeared in an instant. Jiang Chujing looked left and right, took her cell phone into her room, and slowly picked it up, "Hello, Li Wei?" She pretended to be surprised and eximed, "You finally remember to call me." On the other end of the phone, the man paused and exhaled slightly, as if he was d that he didn''t disturb her. After deliberating, he asked cautiously, "Are you fine?" Jiang Chujing just wanted to make use of Li Wei. But when she heard him ask her this question, her heart inevitably trembled. Thinking of her bad days, she deliberately pinched her throat and said, "I don''t know if I am fine or not, but asionally I miss the days in the North Vis. I''m like an extra person here, not as good as when..." Speaking of this, she paused for two seconds and gritted her teeth to say the rest, "When we were in the North Vis, and you wouldn''t make things difficult for me." Chapter 201 Chapter 201 Li Wei was nervous for her tone sounded like she was about to cry, "Did someone make things difficult for you?" "It''s hard to say..." Jiang Chujing deliberately said ambiguously and let his imagination run wild. "I just feel very ufortable. Most of the time, I felt restricted and no one would be with me." Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. "Where''s Mr. Li?" "He has been busy with work outside most of the time, and onlyes back at night. When hees back, Shu Tianes back as well, so I... feel like an outsider. It was awkward." Li Wei was also upset to hear that. He had expected that the three of them would have a lot of inconveniences to live together, but back then, she had insisted on going over. He could not say anything against her and was not qualified to do so. Hearing Jiang Chujing''s words, he said, "Miss Jiang, if you feel embarrassed, move back to the North Vis. You won''t be lonely with me." His words had already crossed the line between them, and Jiang Chujing felt a sense of disgust in her heart, but she did not show it. She just found an excuse for herself. "I''m afraid it''s a little annoying that I go back just aftering here. I''ll wait for a while, when I get better after the new year, we''ll discuss it then." Li Wei thought it over and found she was right. After all, the new year wasing, and he had to go home by then. It was not good to leave her alone in the vi. Waiting for a chance was the best choice now. "Okay, if you need anything, you can contact me anytime. I''m always there." After that, Li Wei seemed to have something else to say. He hesitated for many pauses, but couldn''t say words like "I miss you so much". In the end, he gave it up and said," Goodbye." After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chujing looked thoughtfully at the clouds outside the window. Li Wei''s concerned voice remained sounding in her ear. Even Li Wei''s admiration made her feel a little disgusted, but she had to say that he was the only man who had devoted himself to her and she was a little touched. It was impossible for her to keep stone-hearted. She clutched the phone in her hand and prayed that everything would go as she wished. [...] When Li Han came back in the evening, it was almost ten o''clock. There were bunches of social engagements at the end of the year. Although he had refused many, there were still many banquets that he had to attend. After he parked the car, he saw two rednterns lit at the door, as if they were weing him home, which warmed his heart on such a cold night. Red couplets were pasted on both sides of the door frame, and the quiet snow-covered courtyard had been decorated with a new-year atmosphere. Li Han had been watching at the door for a while, picturing her figure when she had been doing all these. She must have been nimble and gentle. The hair around her ears was either loose or tied tightly, giving him a sense of tenderness inadvertently. When Li Han entered the room, Shu Tian was lying on the sofa watching TV. It was rare that Jiang Chujing did note down to disturb her. She was eating fruit and watching the variety show, enjoying the leisure of this moment. Seeing him walk in with a chill, she immediately stepped forward and said, "Wee back." Li Han put his arm around her shoulder, took her to the sofa, and sat down. He nced at the half te of fruit on the table and felt concerned. "Eating fruit sote is too cold for your stomach." "It''s okay. It''s warm at home." Seeing that her smiling eyes, Li Han reached out and pulled her into his arms. She had taken a bath with a sweet smell on her body, which even diluted the smell of alcohol on his body. "Thenterns at the door are beautiful." "Did you see it?" "With such a big size, it''s hard to ignore it." "And the couplets?" "Not bad." He had looked at them carefully just now, they were much better than othermon couplets. Thinking of the couplet affixed on the top of the door frame, he was suddenly reminded of something, and asked, "Did you do these all alone?" Shu Tian thought he was praising her and nodded proudly. "Of course, I''ve done a perfect job." Unexpectedly, the man frowned. "How did you get so high?" The door of the vi was at least four meters high, which was twice the height of that of an ordinary family. Therefore it was not easy to get on the top. Shu Tian pointed to the warehouse. "There''s adder." "Don''t paste the rest of them. It''s too high and dangerous." He added worriedly, "If you like it, I''ll get someone to do it." "You are exaggerating. My mother and I used to do it at home by ourselves. Don''t worry, I''m not a child, and I can still do this." Shu Tian felt that he was making a mountain out of a molehill. The man buried his handsome face between her shoulder and her fair and slender neck. The fragrance on her body was his best antidote to fatigue. "That was before. Now that I''m on your side, could it still be the same?" She felt sweet in her heart, and she looked down at him, "Are you drunk?" Usually, he would not be so gentle. The man moved up the corners of his mouth silently. He didn''t drink much at all. People of dignify like him didn''t need to please others by drinking. And he had shown up there out of courtesy. But hearing her question, as a man that was mild on the outside but wild on the inside, he nodded to agree, "Yes, I''m a little dizzy." "Ah?" Shu Tian straightened his head. "Do you need me to ask Nanny Li to make some hangover soup?" As she spoke, she was about to put on her shoes and call Nanny Li. Sensing the soft body in his arms slip away, Li Han felt at loss, then he reached out and pulled her back immediately. "No, just help me upstairs and lie down for a while." Shu Tian could only do as he said. She put his arm across her shoulder and struggled to lift the man''s heavy and athletic body. The weight he leaned on her was just the strength that made her feel tired and not be pressed to the ground. Shu tian carried him upstairs with one hand supporting his narrow waist and the other holding his palm. Halfway through, she almost sprained. Fortunately, he came to his senses and grabbed her. His big palm, whether intentional or unintentional, was right on the edge of her bosom, holding her hard... Shu Tian blushed and stood out slightly. She looked up and saw that he did not look strange, as if he had just touched it by ident. If she mentioned it, it would seem that she was the overthinking one. After thinking for a while, she decided to remain silent and tried to carry him into the bedroom. After finally dragging him to bed, the man asked again, "Help me run the bath." "You want to take a bath?" Shu Tian shook her head and advised him, "Take it tomorrow morning. You probably can''t do it now." Li Han had already had an idea in his mind and insisted on letting her go running the bath, seemingly he would not sleep without taking a bath. Shu Tian had no choice but to do so. She went into the bathroom and washed the bathtub. After adjusting the temperature of the water, she ran the water half in the bathtub and squeezedvender essential oil and shower gel into it. White bubbles were floating on the water. She bent over and reached out to feel the temperature of the water. Before she could touch the water, a soft click came from behind. Shu Tian was shocked and almost had a nosebleed the moment she turned around... In front of her eyes were healthy wheat-colored skin, strong muscles, and perfect body proportions, especially the V- shape abs on his waist... Chapter 202 Chapter 202 What... Shu Tian moved back to the corner with her eyes widened, but then she was grabbed. She screamed in fear, as her heart beated violently, "No! Calm down!" She didn''t even dare to linger her eyes on his body. Her nose was itchy as if she was about to get a nosebleed. His intention was revealed as he stood in front of her with his body naked. He fixed his eyes on her. Shu Tian only wore a white nightgown. The cor of her nightgown was wet so that he could vaguely see the color of her bra. It was light pink, like the color of her body when she was making love with him. He felt a little bit thirsty. While the bathroom was filled with the ssh of water, he raised his hand to unbutton her nightgown. Then, there was the chorus of the ssh and her squeal in the bathroom. "Li Han! Are you really drunk?!" "Um." He answered with his nose and continued his actions. After a long time, he ran out of patience and tore her nightgown violently. The buttons fell to the ground, making a crisp sound. Shu Tian was so shocked that she was gibbering, "You..." Shu Tian was so flustered because she felt a stream of overpowering male hormones. Although it was rude, it was indeed sexy... His abnormal behavior brought her a sense of submission. Noticing the flush on her cheeks and the desire hidden in her eyes, he took off her nightgown and threw it on the sink. The white cloth was thoroughly wet. The pink bra made her look virginal, seductive, reservedly sexy. Li Han knew that she was always shy, so he took her to the bathtub. The warmth of the water, the scent of the shower cream, and the hazy steambined and created an intimate atmosphere. They petted and caressed each other, lighting fires on their bodies. He hugged her from behind and whispered, "Did you miss me?" Shu Tian felt her ears were burning and her heart was trembling. This sentence contained mixed meanings. After a while, she nodded, "Yes." Ever since Jiang Chujing lived there, they had begun to restrain themselves. They were not as free as before. Besides, they had been busy with work recently, and the time after work was upied by overtime and social engagements. "Were you angry yesterday?" He bit her ear deliberately to cause her to tremble. Shu Tian wanted to dodge but failed, "No..." How could he talk about these seriously when they were doing such intimate things? "Don''t worry. I only sleep with you." He kissed her gently and exined to her. After a day, Shu Tian had already cooled her head. But Li Han thought it was necessary to give her an exnation. The temperature in the bathroom kept rising. Maybe it was because of his tight hug. She felt dizzy as if she was lying in a pile of cotton. The clothes on her body were taken away. While they were immersed themselves in sex, the door was knocked. There was no sound of speaking, only a slight knocking sound. Shu Tian was startled, and her body tautened instantly. He pinched her waist, and warned her with his hoarse voice, "Don''t move!" Shu Tian bit his lips and said incoherently, "Someone knocked on the door..." "Never mind." He didn''t want to care about anything at the moment. He just wanted to be with her, in full possession of her. The water spilled from the tub. Compared to the heat inside, Jiang Chujing felt a chill in her body. Receiving no response, she knew clearly what they were doing at this moment. She couldn''t help but take a step forward and put her ear against the door. However, she couldn''t hear anything. Thinking that Li Han was hugging another woman in his arms and making love with that woman, she felt her heart was roasted and fried. It was so painful that she couldn''t stand it. How could he be with another woman? Jiang Chujing gritted her teeth and felt that Li Han had betrayed her. She didn''t allow him to be with anybody. If Li Han didn''t belong to her, she would like to destroy him! Jiang Chujing walked back to her room with her stiff body. Looking at the strange decorations in the room, she felt her heart was empty and crammed with the cold wind. His love for Shu Tian was deeper than Jiang Chujing could imagine, which threw her into the abyss of fear. She had lost what she owned previously. Her original n seemed so weak at this moment. She wanted to change their rtionship step by step, but it was toote. Li Han''s love for Shu Tian was so determined that could not be easily shaken. If it was this case, she would speed up. Even if she didn''t get any benefits, it was much better than doing nothing. She made up her mind and took out another phone from the locked drawer to call Jiane Mengyao. The Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. call was quickly answered, then a rough female voice appeared, "Hello." "We must speed up. I''ll send you an addresster. Tomorrow, you go to this hospital''s brain department ording to the address and find a patient named Zhang Lancheng. Make an investigation and give me a report." "Who is this person?" She had been hiding for a while and had almost run out of her money. Besides, she didn''t dare to spend money, because she was afraid of being arrested. Jiane Mengyao couldn''t wait to leave here. She couldn''t stand the pressure and hunger anymore. "My grandma." Jiang Chujing told her the truth and warned her, "Remember, don''t tell anyone." "Do you think I''m a fool? I won''t say it." Jiang Chujing didn''t dare to rx, "Cheer up. We''ll be done for if we make a mistake." "Don''t worry. I''ll finish it as soon as possible. I don''t want anything except money and freedom." As for others, she had no illusions now. Chapter 203 Chapter 203 The year passed in such a hurry. Thest working day of thepany was for employees to collect and tidy up their things and hand in the annual report summary. Thepany held its annual meeting at the most luxurious hotel in the city in the evening, and all the employees were there. Employees were divided into three groups, grass-roots, management, and executives together with directors. The entire three floors of the hotel were booked, and the venue fee alone was enough for Shu Tian''s sry for a few years. She wanted to dress casually, but thepany veteran in her group told her to dress up. She was told that a formal dress would be okay. Shu Tian was surprised. "Why do I have to wear a dress?" "Our annual meeting is quite posh. There is a ball every year, but it is optional. People are all dressed up. Do you think it''s appropriate for you to wear casual clothes?" Shu Tian thought about it. It was indeed inappropriate. So the night before, she rummaged through the closet and chose a beige dress withce sleeves and a hollow-out design at the chest. It was neither too sexy nor too conservative. It was not eye-catching but very formal. She took the dress to the hotel with satisfaction. Each group has two rooms, one for male colleagues and the other for female colleagues, just for the convenience of waiting and changing clothes. Shu Tian took the dress into the bathroom. It was warm in the hotel, so she didn''t feel cold after wearing it. She matched it with a short light gray fur that just fit. As soon as she opened the door and walked out, her colleagues, who were chit-chatting, all fell quiet and looked at her for at least half a minute. Liuu was the most enthusiastic. She walked over and carefully fingered the fur. "Wow, that''s so beautiful. It makes you look curved and fairer." Shu Tian didn''t like being noticed. Being stared at, she was a little embarrassed. "Is this... Okay?" "No, it''s amazing!" Zhang Rui''er also teased, "I have to say, you look like a star in this outfit." "Thanks." Shu Tian blushed slightly and quickly walked away from the crowd. She looked at the figure in the ss, and it did seem good. She just hoped that the annual meeting would end sessfully and that she would not embarrass herself. Employees headed to their respective floors at 7: 30 pm. Shu Tian and Zhang Rui''er were neers, so they were the grass-roots level of thepany. Colleagues were quite ebullient. Without the usual tension and depression, everyone exchanged pleasantries with each other. Shu Tian became the focus as soon as she appeared. Many colleagues who had met her stared into her, unable to hide the amazement in their eyes. Shu Tian did not have a radiant look, but she was better than most. Everyone was used to her in dress at work and didn''t think she was particrly good-looking. Now she changed her clothes and put on makeup, it was as if she took on a new aspect, so beautiful that others'' eyes were fixed on her. Shu Tian smiled awkwardly and hurriedly signed into the banquet hall. There were a lot of exquisite desserts instead of other food. Shu Tian took one and put it into her mouth. The feeling of hunger diminished. Not long after, the annual meeting officially began. Their table was in the back. The major event was the leader''s speech, apanied by activities such as snatching cash and gifts. There was amendation segment in the end. The door of the hall was pushed open, and Li Han walked in with others, instantly making the atmosphere tense up. As one of the top domesticw firms, HY Law Office had many branches. It was not easy to meet Li Han in the headquarters, let alone the branches. The man was dressed in a dark blue suit matched with a white shirt. His clothes were all handmade, and the pattern outlined his figure perfectly. Instead of a tie, he wore a bow today, which made him gentle and elegant. Shu Tian''s eyes fell on him, her heart beating fast. Seeing him on such a formal asion was such an environment. Wherever he was, he was the focus. He was born to be a leader. Li Han walked onto the stage. He gave a brief summary of the past and an outlook for the future, as well as his thanks to the employees. The whole speech was mature and steady, which made employees full of confidence in thepany''s future. Perhaps this was what a good leader would do. After Li Han finished speaking, he took a seat in the audience. Other executives also made short speeches. N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. Shu Tian thought there was nothing concerning her after. However, she heard her name when she was whispering to Zhang Rui''er. She was a little confused. She sat up straight among the eyes of others and caught the words of the leader on the stage. "Everyone knows that there was an ident in thepany this year, which fortunately did not lead to particrly serious consequences. I''d like to take this opportunity to praise Shu Tian who has made great contributions to it. I hope everyone can learn from her active dedication. Please take corporate affairs as your own business. You have to put yourself in thepany''s shoes so that you can have a better future..." The leader babbled on the stage and finally called Shu Tian''s name again. "Next, to encourage Shu Tian''s behavior, I will give her a trophy and a bonus. Please wee Shu Tian." The apuse thundered forth. Shu Tian was embarrassed andpletely unprepared. Under the gaze of everyone, she forced herself to step forward. The branch leader was about to give her the award, but unexpectedly Li Han took a step forward and handed it directly to her. Everyone in thepany knew their rtionship. Although he did nothing wrong, there was ambiguity in everyone''s eyes. Shu Tian was blushing furiously, and her hands trembled as she took it from Li Han''s hand. He looked at her red face with a smile in his eyes. His fingertips secretly brushed past her palm on purpose. Being flirted, Shu Tian''s little face turned even redder. She withdrew her hand in haste, smiled awkwardly, and pretended to be serious, "Thank you for your encouragement. I will work harder to live up to your expectations." When she came down from the stage, her legs were weak. She wished she could go up and pull that dignified man down. Flirting with her, huh? Just go home and wait! Seeing her sit down angrily, Zhang Rui''er teased, "Is it wonderful that he is your boss during the day and your husband at night?" Chapter 204 Chapter 204 Shu Tian knew that Zhang Rui''er was teasing her, so she gave a sinister smile and retorted, "Don''t ask me about that. Aren''t you the same?" Zhang Rui''er thought of Zhang Bikun btedly and quicklyughed, "Come on, have some chocte to replenish your blood sugar. I see you almost can''t stand firm..." The annual meetingsted from nearly eight o''clock to almost ten o''clock. For the first time in her life, Shu Tian felt that it was so difficult to socialize. Whether they were big leaders or small leaders, as long as they were senior to you, you had to drink the wine in your ss obediently. In addition, you could not toast two leaders together but should toast them one by one. She was dizzy from the drink, and she was going to vomit. She couldn''t hold it back, so she told Zhang Rui''er and went to the bathroom. When she went in, she met a lot of acquaintances, who were her colleagues in the same group as her and drank a lot. Shu Tian went to the bathroom and wiped her artery with cold water. After she was slightly sober, she walked back to the banquet hall. She had her head drooping, trying to restrain the ufortable feeling in her stomach. She did not look at the road ahead and suddenly hit a person when she was about to reach the door. She didn''t stand firm and staggered back. A person immediately held her waist and supported her with a slight force. The man''s crisp smell was mixed with a faint smell of alcohol. Shu Tian knew who the person was without looking up. Just as she was about to speak, she felt nauseous. She raised her head to press against her chest and frowned. Seeing that she was not feeling well, Li Han held her into the VIP elevator. He took a room card from the inside pocket of his suit, swiped it and pressed the corresponding floor button, and carried her into the suite. As soon as Shu Tian entered the room, she subconsciously looked for the sofa and threw herself into it weakly, "Ah... Comfortable." Li Han nced at her dress and turned on the air conditioner in the room and put his coat on her since he was afraid that she would catch a cold. He leaned over and smelled the alcohol on her lips. He frowned, "How much did you drink?" Shu Tian reached out a finger and gestured, "A little..." He smiled and said in a deep and maic voice, "More than a little." Shu Tian was silent. In fact, she was notpletely drunk but can''t control herself because she had drunk more than a little. For example, at this moment, she reached out to grab his cor, "Socializing is really annoying. So you''ve been working so hard." Her strength wasn''t enough to pull him, but Li Han still bent over to get closer to her, "Who asked you to drink, huh?" When he went back, he would find out all of them. When there were any social engagements, he would ask these people to go and thought they would be useful on these asions. Shu Tian thought about it, but her mind was in a mess. The harder she tried to recall them, the less she could recall. After thinking for a moment, she gave up, "I forgot it..."Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Li Han seemed to have predicted this result and sighed helplessly. He took the pillow from the bed in the bedroom to put it under her head. He had to leave since there was still a group of people waiting for him downstairs. Looking at the little woman lying quietly on the sofa, Li Han whispered, "Lie down for a while. If you feel ufortable, spit it out. If you''re sleepy, you can sleep. I should go out for a while." Shu Tian was a little dull and nodded after a while, "Well,e back earlier..." The man touched her forehead with his slightly cold fingertips, "Okay." [...] Downstairs, Zhang Bikun was looking for him all over the ce. When he saw Li Haning down from the elevator of the guest room, he remembered that Zhang Rui''er had said that she couldn''t find Shu Tian just now. So Zhang Bikun knew what happened clearly, but he secretlyined that Mr. Li was really eager to stay with his woman. When Li Han returned to the banquet hall of the seniors, many of the directors of thepany were already almost drunk and were waiting to go home. When they saw himing back, they all came over to greet him. Li Han also hoped that they would leave as soon as possible when his woman was having a rest upstairs. Ji Chuanyi saw through his anxiety and said teasingly, "If you''re in a hurry, go up. I can handle it here myself." "Nothing." Ji Chuanyi looked at the man''s calmness and continued to say, "By the way, I heard you gave Shu Tian an award? You''re capable..." Li Han finally looked at him and said calmly, "If you have the time, think about your own problems. Don''t bother my girlfriend." After saying that, he walked towards the door, leaving Ji Chuanyi there alone in confusion. Ji Chuanyi wondered when he bothered Shu Tian. He suddenly thought of a small and fair face. He paused for a moment and felt a little disappointed after understanding what Li Han meant. Li Han walked to the door and chatted with a veteran director who had been in thepany since it was established. They didn''t talk anything about the work but just greeted each other. As they spoke, the private phone in his pocket rang. Li Han signaled the director and walked to the corner to answer the phone, "Hello?" "Han, are you still busy?" Jiang Chujing''s soft voice came from the microphone, apanied by some noise, "I heard that you held an annual party today, so I made you some soup that can sober you up. When youe back..." "No need." Li Han interrupted her and looked at snowkes outside the window, "I won''t go back tonight." Jiang Chujing hesitated for a while and then said, "Won''t youe back? Where are you going to live? It''s snowing outside. Is it convenient for you?" Although her voice was full of concern, Li Han could still hear the hidden requirements under her concern. She was requiring him in such a gentle tone. He suddenly lost his patience, "Chujing, I said I''m not going back tonight." In all these years, this was the first time Li Han had spoken to her in such a direct and impatient tone. She just asked him if he woulde back. Why did he despise her so much? Jiang Chujing looked at the boiling water in the pot. The soup had not been made yet, and it seemed that there was no need to make it now. She felt depressed, "Han, do you think I''m disturbing you and Miss Shu? Well, I''ll move out tonight." Then, she hung up the phone before Li Han could speak. Seeing she had hung up, Li Han cursed in a low voice, afraid that she would do something irrational. He walked out in a hurry. Halfway through, he suddenly stopped and took out his phone to call Li Wei, "You drive back to Imperial Vi immediately. Chujing is excited now. Calm her down." Hearing this, Li Wei said nervously, "Did anything happen to Miss Jiang?" Li Han listened to these words and realized something, "Li Wei, calm down." Only then did Li Wei realize that he had overreacted and quickly calmed down, "I''m sorry Mr. Li. I''ll rush over now!" Chapter 205 Chapter 205 After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chujing went upstairs and back to her room. She waited for Li Han toe home expectantly since she was sure that Li Han woulde back like before this time. Every time Jiang Chujing did this, he woulde back to her nervously. Jiang Chujing was sitting on the bed until she heard the sound of the car''s engine turning off arise in the yard, and then she put on slippers and rushed out of the room. When Jiang Chujing rushed to the corner of the stairs on the second floor, Nanny Li opened the door of the vi. Then a ck figure walked in. When Jiang Chujing saw who that person was, she was disappointed immediately. Why did Li Weie back? Jiang Chujing frowned in disappointment. "Hey, what are you doing here?" Upon hearing Jiang Chujing''s words, Li Wei looked over and walked straight to her. He looked at her up and down several times to make sure she was sound and safe and breathed a sigh of relief and exined, "Mr. Li asked me toe over." Jiang Chujing was in a daze for a moment and asked uncertainly, "Li... Han?" Li Wei nodded, "Right." Jiang Chujing blinked and slowly looked around the room. Thinking of her ridiculous expectations just now, she was mocking herself and never thought that he would trust someone else to look after her! Jiang Chujing bit her lower lip hard with resentment. She ignored Li Wei walked straight into the room and mmed the door. With a bang, the door closed in front of Li Wei and nearly hit his nose. He took a step back and then knocked on the door, "Chu... Miss Jiang, please, open the door." "Get out of here!" Jiang Chujing roared and threw something on the door, making a" ng." She didn''t hide her emotions anymore at that moment. She hated Shu Tian and Li Han for not taking herself seriously! Li Wei felt disappointed at her scolding. He had thought that the care he had been showing to her these days would let her ept him, but it turned out that she didn''t care about him. Nanny Li was worried when she heard the noise. She went over and asked Li Wei, "Do you need to inform Mr. Li about this?" "Not necessary," Li Wei knew that Jiang Chujing didn''t want Li Han to see her being like this. When he realized that he rejected too quickly, he added tactfully, "Mr. Li is busy and can''te back. I''ll stay here. Don''t worry." Nanny Li nodded, "Okay, then." [...] When Li Han finished what he was doing and went upstairs, it was already 40 minutester. And Zhang Bikun stayed there to deal with thest thing. Li Han rushed back to the room and saw Shu Tian lying on the sofa and still awake. Shu Tian was ying a popr mini-game on her phone, but she couldn''t pass mission 50. When she saw Li Haning in, she pestered him for help. Li Han couldn''t refuse her. He took off his coat and tie, took her phone, and soon passed the mission sessfully. "Wow, you''re amazing." Shu Tian praised sincerely, "I have been trying for two days. And you just seeded in one fell swoop." Hearing her praise, Li Han was amused. He had told her so much legal expertise, and she never praised him. It was just a game, but she got so excited. "Are you still dizzy?" Shu Tian shook her head, "I feel much better now." She went to the bathroom a few times. Obviously, it worked. "Take a shower and go to bed?" He stroked her forehead and said gently. Shu Tian stared at Li Han, "Li Han, I just thought about it. We''ve known each other for more than six months." Li Han raised his eyebrows, "Only six months?" Then Shu Tian asked to him, "What do you mean by only?" "I feel like I''ve known you for a long time." He always had the illusion that he had been with her for a long time as if she had always existed in his life. But after he thought about it, it was indeed only six months. He chuckled, "Maybe because our rtionship developed so fast that I feel this way." Shu Tian clenched her fists and punched him, "How dare you say that? It''s all because of you." "If I didn''t do that, we can''t be like this now." It seemed that fate was a wonderful thing, which made the two introverted people fall in love at first sight. "Don''t tease me in public anymore!" Shu Tian was furious when she thought about it. On the awarding day, his actions almost made her unable to hold on. He responded obediently, but there was not much sincerity in his tone, "Okay, I promise you." Shu Tian didn''t care. She pointed at her dress and grinned slyly, "Does it look good? Many people praised me after I wore it today." "It looks good." Li Han thoughtfully looked at her shoulder de, which happened to have a hollow design that vaguely showed her skin. "They probably have another reason for looking at you." Shu Tian was puzzled, "What?" "Here," He gently touched it. "There are hickeys I leftst night." Shu Tian was dumbfounded. WTF? Hearing this, Shu Tian was half sober. She immediately got out of the sofa and staggered into the bathroom. She turned her back to the mirror and saw a faint red mark. No wonder everyone looked at her. And no wonder no one reminded her. ording to this shape and position, everyone could tell it was a hickey at a nce! Shu Tian leaned against the wall behind her. The cold tiles pressed against her body, but she still felt so hot. "This is too embarrassing. I went on stage to receive the award like this." Shu Tian slid to the ground and was about to cry. She was so regretful that she wanted to strangle herself, "What should I do? Everyone must have seen it." "We''re adults. It is very..."This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Before he could say the word "normal", Shu Tian had already red at him, "When did you notice that?" Li Han answered seriously, "When I gave you the award." "Then why didn''t you tell me?" "How could I tell you in front of everyone?" Li Han squatted down and looked at her calmly, "You dodged me tonight and refused to look me in the eye. Even if I wanted to hint with a look, it would be difficult." "I didn''t know it would be like this..." Shu Tian curled up her knees to cover her face. She felt too ashamed to see others. And the feeling of shame made her frustrated. When Li Han saw that she wanted to hide, he felt she was so cute that he felt warm. Then he gently held her up. Shu Tian was surprised and eximed, "Ah, what are you doing!" "Nothing." He took a few quick steps and ced her on the soft bed to press against her. She could not run away. Shu Tian could clearly hear her own heartbeat, and she gulped, "You, you..." Before she could utter a word, Li Han took out a box from his pocket and said in her ear," close your eyes." Chapter 206 Chapter 206 Shu Tian felt her heart thump furiously. Although she didn''t know what he was going to do, she was already looking forward to it. As she muttered reluctantly, she slowly closed her eyes. After a few seconds of silence, she keenly sensed that the man who had just been lying on top of her had left. Then, a chill suddenly came from her right ankle. Subconsciously, she shrank back, yet her right foot was grabbed by a warm big hand. Li Han gently wrapped a bracelet around her ankle, patient and meticulous. "Open your eyes." With permission, she immediately opened her eyes and sat up straight from the bed. She raised her right leg and lowered her eyes to look at the ankle bracelet on her foot. It was made of white tinum. Between each link, there was a very small red diamond, which looked like a row of short tassels. It was actually an expensive diamond. The ce where the two ends were connected was inserted with a bigger green diamond. It was said that red and green were the most vulgar match, but in it, she did not feel this way at all. This unusual "When did you buy it..." She was moved, surprised to receive any gifts. "A month ago, it was custom-made." He then squatted down and looked straight at the little woman sitting by the bed. He said jokingly, "Didn''t you say that you''re upset about being deducted on the year- end bonus. This ankle chain is much more valuable than your year-end bonus." When their eyes met, her face gradually blushed, and he then leaned over to kiss her on her pink lips. "You''ve been working hard at thepany for the past six months, babe." Covering her mouth, she looked at him in disbelief. The delicate chain seemed to have tied her heart with his. With touched tears, she said, "I didn''t prepare anything. I''m sorry..." Compared to his carefulness, she felt a little embarrassed. Yet he raised his hand and rubbed her head. "Silly, you don''t need to do anything. Just stay by my side." "Li Han..." She was so moved that she couldn''t speak. And she just stared at him and wished she could carve this face into her heart. She sniffed and uttered, "I''ll be your employee for the rest of my life. I will All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. be a member of the HY Law Office until I die!" "Don''t you have any loftier ambitions?" Yet he looked up at her. After sensing the confusion in her eyes, he kindly hinted, "I don''tck employees, nor do Ick loyalty. I just need a wife. What do you think?" Her eyes widened in surprise. What did he just say? Wife? This was the first time he had said the word to her since they had known each other for so long. He used to say girlfriend, but now he... Her heart was thumping against her ribs. And she grew so nervous that she almost vomited. How could he always abruptly say such unexpected things? Li Han, on the other hand, didn''t think it was enough. He looked straight into her eyes. "It''s a vacant position. You can take the ce now. At thepany, you''re my employee. At home..." He then paused slightly. Under her gaze, he said softly, "I''m your employee." Disturbed by him, she finally understood what love was. It was probably when she saw him and heard what he said, even if it was just a look, she would feel uncontrobly happy. This was how she felt when looking at him. Now she wanted to get into his arms and hug him tightly. In fact, she did what she wanted. At the same time, as she finished herst word, she threw herself into his arms and wrapped her arms around his neck, making him feel her violently beating heart. "Thank you." After her divorce from Tang Zechen, she never thought that one day she would gain a perfect rtionship. At that time, she was even mentally prepared to live alone forever. It was Li Han''s appearance that gave her so many surprises and touching moments, making her rekindle her desire and yearning for love and life. It was he who helped her regain her enthusiasm and have a better and moreplete life than before. "You don''t have to thank me." He then held her and stroked her back again and again as ifforting an emotional kitten. "It''s going to be a holiday after the annual meeting. My mother asked me to stay at home for a few days and then visit rtives. I can''t bear to part with you." She reported her itinerary to him in a soft voice. The thought of being separated from him for so long made her feel dispirited and ufortable. "You''ll make it up for me anyway." Even though he was more reluctant to part with her, he still held back his sadness andforted her. He didn''t want to ruin the atmosphere now. He then deliberately teased her. "But you have to work harder tonight." He whispered three more words in her ear. She felt that her face was burning, and she struggled to get out of his arms, yet she was thrown directly onto the bed by him. Her body bounced up and down on the bed a little, and even his face became blurry. She then tried to blink her eyes to see his face clearly. For the first time, she took the initiative to hook his neck and gave herself to him. At this moment, she threw away her shyness. Now she just wanted to make love with him and wanted to give it to himpletely to return the same love to him with her most torrid ardor. She then kissed his forehead, the bridge of his nose, and those affectionate eyes. Finally, she stopped on his thin lips. She rubbed them gently, like a charming little fox. Her big clear eyes were also dyed with utmost charm. She smiled and slid her lips to his ear, murmuring softly, "I love you." His body tensed up in an instant, which was clear to see how much this sentence affected him. He held her cheek, his eyes zing with wild joy. "Say it again." "I love you." Her lips became red and swollen from his bite, but her face was fair and tender. Her ck hair fell behind and she repeated it over and over again without hesitation, "I said, I love you... I love you, Li Han." At this moment, when he saw his face reflected in her eyes, he wasn''t afraid of anything now. So what if they were not ready? Even if Jiang Chujing got between them, with this love, they would ovee all obstacles. The woman he loved also loved himpletely. She belonged to him. Thinking of this, he was ravished with joy. It was night outside the hotel window. Between the ice and snow, they felt the hottest temperature from each other, and the coldness in the corner of their hearts was dispelled. At this moment, it was warmer and more addictive than ever. All the words in the world were probably no match to this affirmative, assuring and thoughtless¡ª¡ª "I love you." Chapter 207 Chapter 207 After the annual meeting, there were three days left before New Year''s Eve. Ye Lihua urged her to Shu Tian followed Li Han to his vi to do some cleaning. They hadn''t met each other''s parents, so it was not proper for Shu Tian to take Li Han home. However, he had asked Zhang Bikun to prepare some festival gifts for her families in advance. Thetest electronic product was for Shu Changlei. Some quality tonics, including Cordyceps Sinensis, were for Ye Lihua. These gifts filled the trunk. Shu Tian suddenly felt heavy at heart on the way home, "Let''s take some out. You have taken so many gifts." Li Han nced at the gifts and shook his head, "Really? I wanted to buy two for each of them, but Zhang Bikun advised me not to do that." Hearing his words, Shu Tian wanted to give Zhang Bikun a thumbs-up. "I''m going home for the holiday, not for gifts. If you take so many, my mother will give them to someone else. I''m from an ordinary family, so my family members won''t pay so much attention to etiquette. Otherwise, everyone will feel ufortable." Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua were not greedy for wealth, so these gifts would cause make them feel the pressure. But Li Han thought that it was the expression of his goodwill. If it weren''t for Shu Tian, Li Han would have bought a house not far away for her parents. After putting all the gifts in the trunk, Li Han asked Liu to leave first and got in the car to run her over himself. As the Chinese new year approached, all the outsiders in J City had returned to their hometown. The traffic used to be heavy, but there were few cars today. Although it was all clear, Li Han drove slowly, about 40 miles an hour. Thinking that they would part soon, he didn''t want to drive too fast. Shu Tian couldn''t stand it anymore, so she acted mad, "Hurry up. My mother is waiting for me for lunch." At this speed, she couldn''t get home at one o''clock in the afternoon. Li Han ignored her words and was unwilling to let her go home. "Are you so happy to go home?" He was in a bad mood, but she was happy. At the thought of this, Li Han felt ufortable. Shu Tian knew that he would spend New Year''s Eve alone, so she didn''t provoke him. She tried to please him, "Don''t be sad. Maybe you''lle to my home for the New Year in the future." With that said, he feltforted. Shu Tian gave him a wry smile. She had felt that Li Han was moody and difficult to get along with before. After getting close to him, she found that he was easy to beforted. "I''ll bring you something delicious when Ie back." "What?" Li Han asked with a disdainful look, but he was expecting. "Some dry goods made by my parents, such as sausages, air-dried chicken. I''ll bring you whatever I eat." Shu Tian raised her hand and gently stroked his head, trying not to distract him from his driving, "Don''t be sad. I''lle back early to apany you." Li Han sneered, "Apany me? You''ll be back on duty on the fifth day of the lunar new year. Do you want to apany me or your work?" Li Han still remembered it. Shu Tian said in a tender voice, "Well, I wille back on the third day of the lunar new year after visiting my rtives on the second day. Two days in advance, OK? I wille to see you in the morning of the third day." Li Han thought for a few moments and said, "You cane on the fourth day." Shu Tian blinked, thinking that she had misheard. It was strange that he was willing to dy. "Are you busy on the third day?" "Yes, I''ll go to the Ind with Pei Yu at night on the first day. We''ll stay there for three days." Ind? Shu Tian thought of someone at home, "What about Jiang Chujing?" Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. "Nanny Li will take care of her. I will give her five times her sry. I have asked her toe over on the first day." Shu Tian raised her eyebrows as he usually did, "You''ve prepared everything in advance, but you didn''t tell me." "Can you go with me if I tell you early?" Shu Tian pursed her lips and agreed. She heaved a sigh, "It''s good to be rich. They can go wherever they want to during the New Year holiday. Ordinary people have to return home. It''s tired." When she teased Li Han, he was about to twist her waist, "What''s your problem?" Shu Tian''s back was almost on the door, "No! I''m sorry!" Along the way, they talked andughed. They arrived at the Red Garden Community at about 12: 30 a.m. Shu Tian took the gifts out of the trunk. The driver was not there, and it was not proper for Li Han to go upstairs. She held all the bags herself. "I''m going up. You can go back." Li Han held his position at the door of her unit, "I don''t want to go until you go upstairs." Hearing his words, Shu Tian turned around and walked into the unit. After walking up a flight of stairs, she saw that Li Han was still there. Shu Tian suddenly felt guilty. She went home to celebrate New Year with her family, but Li Han had to spend the festival alone. Now he gazed at her receding figure, which would make him sadder. Shu Tian stopped. She couldn''t bear it. After putting the gifts on the steps, she walked downstairs and ran to him. On seeing his surprised look, she stood on tiptoe and kissed the corner of his mouth. Li Han was overwhelmed. His confused expression amused Shu Tian, so she repeated what she had done, saying, "It''s a reward." He smiled jubntly and stared at her, "That''s it?" After getting along with each other for a long time, they knew that a look or word was enough to tell everything. Hearing his question, Shu Tian looked around. Seeing that no one else was there, she put her arms around Li Han''s neck and kissed him. Li Han bent down slightly to make it easier for her. His tongue plunged between her lips, tasted her, found her tongue twined around his. He wished there was more of it. The kiss conveyed mixed feelings. Her touch sent a burst of heat straight to him. After the kiss, Shu Tian''s tiptoes were about to cramp. She pouted, smiling, "It''s not easy to kiss a tall man." "It''s easy to kiss me on the bed," Li Han said in a flirtatious way, rubbing the tip of his nose against hers. When Shu Tian whispered in his ears, she caught a glimpse of a middle-aged woman. She quickly put down her hands and pretended to cough. When the woman left, Shu Tian said, "Hurry up. You can go back. I''ll go up until you leave." Li Han was about to refuse, but Shu Tian took the lead and said, "Get in your car, or I feel guilty." She stood at the door with a smile. Behind her was the shabby door of the old unit. It was noon. The rays of the sun made her smile more touching. Li Han tilted his face and chuckled. Resisting the urge to take her home, Li Han opened the door and got in his car. Chapter 208 Chapter 208 Shu Tian watched as the car disappeared from her sight before she turned around and went upstairs. She carried a lot of things in her hands and was already sweating profusely when she came to the fourth floor. Before she knocked, Ye Lihua came out of the door. "I heard something just now but why you are here up until now... Are you, are you moving?" Ye Lihua quickly went forward and helped her carry a few things after seeing a pile of things in her hand which almost pulled Shu Tian on the ground. When they entered the house, Shu Changlei was also surprised to see them carrying a pile of things. "What are these?" Shu Tian bent down and put down the things. She had no idea how to exin and gave a random excuse. "These are the awards by thepany this year and I also buy some myself. I can''t use them all so I take some back for you." "Humph." Shu Changlei walked over and nced at the bags, obviously not believing her words. "Do you think your mother and I are idiots? Can you afford these things?" Shu Tian rubbed her nose awkwardly and muttered, "Dad, you look down on me too much." When Shu Changlei had been working in the government, many people had given him different kinds of gifts. Even though he hadn''t epted them, he knew the behavior quite well. Shu Tian couldn''t afford these things with a few months'' sries. Ye Lihua casually opened a bag and found thetest cell phone. She immediately frowned and put it back again. "Tian, where did you get these things?" Seeing that she couldn''t hide it anymore, Shu Tian could only tell the truth, "Li Han gave these to you..." "Li Han?" "Yes..." Shu Tian lowered her head unconsciously. "He said he wanted to show his regard to you with these and hope you can ept them." In fact, Li Han''s original words were that he would pay a formal visitter and these were only to show his regard to them. However, Shu Tian did not dare to say thest half of the sentence, afraid that Shu Changlei would be so angry that he would kick her out. The couple looked at the gifts on the ground and then turned to look at each other. Their eyes were filled with irresistible confusion and entanglements. Ye Lihua held Shu Tian''s hand and took her to the sofa. "Tian, these things are so precious. We can''t ept them. You''d better return them..." "Mom, since I''ve already brought them here, just leave them at home. He can''t take them back." Shu Tian was so depressed at the thought of taking these things back again. ording to her understanding of Li Han, they must have had an inevitable quarrel and he would definitely return the gifts again. Shu Changlei listened to her and suddenly lost his temper. "What is your rtionship with him now? Your mother and I can''t ept his things as he is nobody to you!" Shu Tian''s parents had always been honest. Although they had been in the officialdom for a long period of time, Shu Changlei did not harbor that kind of bureaucratic aura. He was a very honest person. "Dad!" Shu Tian was a little angry. "Who do you think I am?" "Then tell us, what is going on?" Ye Lihua acted as a peacemaker, afraid that the father and daughter would quarrel again and the new year would not be peaceful. Shu Tian sighed heavily. She was finally forced to tell the truth. "Li Han is my boyfriend. We are in love now." "You can''t ept such expensive things even though you''re in love." Shu Changlei did not give in and pointed to the gift boxes on the ground. "Take them back!" "Dad!" Shu Tian was anxious and helpless. She knew what Shu Changlei cared about but she and Li Han didn''t go as far as they thought. "These things are nothing to him at all." "Still being stubborn?" The more Shu Changlei listened to, the angrier he became. He almost raised his eyebrows. "You can''t ept them even though they are nothing to him. Didn''t we tell you this in the past?!" Shu Tian was still being angry. Was she a person who liked to take advantage of others? If Li Han hadn''t insisted on her getting them back, she wouldn''t have asked him for anything. Thinking that her parents didn''t understand her so much, she was so angry herself that she began to speak without thinking carefully, "Okay, okay, okay, you don''t want them. You will finally ept them when hees here personally!" The three people in the living room were dumbfounded and they looked at each other embarrassedly when she finished speaking. Especially Shu Tian who regretted it after she said out... Was she crazy?! Just as she was about to exin, she heard Ye Lihua ask incredulously, "You have already reached this point?" Shu Tian felt she was done. She now felt like being roasted on the fire and she couldn''t even say a sentencepletely." No, no, mom, that''s not what I meant. I..." "What do you mean?" Shu Changlei finally calmed down. "To be honest, do you two have any ns?" The two of them looked at Shu Tian. They were family members who had lived together for so many years and could tell everything from a look or tone. N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. Shu Tian wanted to hide it but her expression had already revealed everything. She lowered her head, sighed, and nodded resignedly. "Yes..." Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei were even more speechless now. They did not expect their daughter to be so anxious. The gifts on the floor were worth almost 100 thousand, too much for the average. This... Ye Lihua looked at the two of them and tried to lighten their moods. "Your father and I are worried about you. We didn''t mean to make things difficult for you. You should tell us this earlier. We are so uneasy when you suddenlye back with so many valuable things." "You wouldn''t listen to me even if I told you earlier." Shu Tian rebutted in a low voice, "I''m already a grownup and I know what I''m doing. Don''t worry too much. Can I be the kind of person who takes advantage of others?" "No matter how old you are, you are still a child in front of us." Ye Lihua patted her stiff shoulder. "Well, go into the room and rest for a while. I''ll heat up the food for youter." "No!" Shu Changlei suddenly stopped them. Shu Tian was startled suddenly and she patted her chest. "What''s wrong, dad?" "Since he has sent so many things to us and we ept them, we have to thank him personally." Shu Changlei was a typical doer. He immediately asked Shu Tian to call Li Han. "Call him and I''ll talk to him then." "Huh?" Shu Tian almost dropped her jaw. "Dad, are you kidding?" Shu Tian looked at Shu Changlei with anticipation. She really hoped that he would take back his words the next second. However, her fantasy was quickly shattered. Shu Changlei waved his hand impatiently and said. "Don''t talk nonsense. Hurry up to call him!" Chapter 209 Chapter 209 Li Han was driving to Imperial Vi at a speed of 120 miles per hour, so fast that he could not even see a shadow of the scenery outside the window. Just as he was waiting for the traffic light at the intersection, he got a phone call from Shu Tian. Li Han immediately thought of her soft and tender face, eager to hear her voice though they had parted just now. He answered the phone with the car''s Bluetooth and said in a low and charming voice. "Hello?" The person paused for two seconds and said in an elderly voice. Li Han was so shocked that he drove the car sideways and caused other drivers''ints. He drove the car back to hisne, confused. "Hello, Shu Tian?" "I''m not Shu Tian. I''m her father." Hearing her father''s voice, Li Han was shocked and checked the phone number. He knew it was from Shu Tian and wondered why her father was calling him. Li Han''s calmness hadpletely changed. However, Li Han didn''t show panic. Instead, he replied politely and obediently, "Hello, uncle. I''m Li Han, Shu Tian''s boyfriend." Then, he seemed to feel that he was impolite and exined, "I didn''t know it was you who answered the phone just now. I''m sorry." "Nothing." Shu Changlei answered calmly and walked into the room when his daughter was eavesdropping behind him. Then, he locked the door to make sure that she couldn''t hear him. "We have received the things you asked Shu Tian to bring back. They are all precious, but we don''t need them either. You don''t have to spend so much money on us. We know you are sincere but we don''t need these things." Shu Changlei clearly showed his opinion. After Shu Changlei finished his talking, Li Han answered. "Uncle, I bought these articles ording to your preferences. If you don''t like them, I ask Shu Tian what you prefer next time. you don''t have to feel burdened. This is what I should do." Shu Changlei paused and thought he was smart. Shu Changlei smiled silently and shook his head. "Anyway, we are grateful. I also talked to Shu Tian about you. Come home for dinner when you have time." Shu Changlei said these words just for courtesy. To Shu Changlei''s surprise, Li Han answered. "Uncle, I''ll be back on the fourth day of the new year. You and auntie cane here by then and can also take a look at where Shu Tian usually lives." Filled with mixed feelings, Shu Changlei had to say vaguely, "I''m busy during the new year. After I''ll ask your auntter, you will be in contact with Shu Tian." Li Han agreed easily. "Okay, uncle, happy new year to you and auntie. Goodbye." After hanging up the phone, Shu Changlei found that his palms were actually sweating and realized he had been highly nervous just now. Shu Changlei, a sophisticated man, was nervous to talk to the younger man over the phone. Li Han was definitely not an average person. Shu Changlei had a little understanding of Li Han and thought he, young as he was, was indeed smart and thoughtful. Shu Changlei was immersed in his thoughts when his daughter knocked on the door. Shu Tian asked tentatively, "Dad, are you done? I''m in a hurry to use my phone." She was probably anxious. Shu Changlei walked to the door to hand her the phone. "Here you are." Shu Tian immediately checked the recent call history and found the call hadsted for five minutes and thirteen seconds. She followed behind Shu Changlei and kept asking, "Dad, what have you been talking about? Did he say anything?" "No." Shu Changlei was reluctant to tell her and walked to the kitchen to talk to Ye Lihua. "What''s up on the fourth day of the new year?" "Fourth day of the lunar new year?" Ye Lihua was warming up the food and shook his head. "It''s okay. We''ll finish visiting rtives on Wednesday." "Then you and Tian will go back to where she lives now." Shu Changlei said. "Ah?" "What?" Ye Lihua and Shu Tian spoke in unison and looked at Shu Changlei in surprise. "Li Han invites you. You can check the time then." Shu Changlei went back to the room. "Mom, what happened to my dad?" Shu Tian asked. Ye Lihua covered her mouth and smiled. "Your father is embarrassed and insisted on calling your boyfriend and was invited by your boyfriend in the end." Shu Tian figured it out and felt that after this year, she would get more intimate with Li Han. "But don''t be shy. I think the boy is quite proactive. You are not excellent and don''t be as picky as before." Ye Lihua said. "Oh, mom!" Shu Tian stopped her. "I know. Stop it." "Okay, okay, I won''t say anything." Ye Lihua finally smiled and knew that they loved each other. Ever since Shu Tian divorced Tang Zechen, Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei had been worried about her a lot. Since Shu Tian was not excellent in all aspects and divorced, her parents were afraid that no man would love her sincerely in the future. [...] When Shu Tian returned to her room, she immediately called Li Han. Li Han answered the phone in an instant and anxiously answered. "Hello?" Shu Tian knew that he had been highly nervous and smilingly said. "It''s me." Li Han happened to have just driven the car into the front yard of the vi and felt relieved in the car. "If your parents call me again in the future, you must tell me in advance." "What? Are you nervous?" Shu Tian teased him because she hardly saw him suffer a setback. Unexpectedly, he admitted, "Yes, I''m nervous." For the first time, his mood had been rapidly changed because of his future father-inw. Shu Tian suddenly sympathized with him and said seriously, "This time it''s an emergency. Next time, I will definitely tell you in advance." Li Han leaned back in his chair and looked at the red at the entrance of the vi. Thinking of his nervous look just now, he found it funny. "You don''t have to gloat. You will visit my parents." N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. Shu Tian paused. When she was silent, Li Han could imagine that she must feel shocked with big eyes and slightly opened pink lips, and chuckled. "Don''t worry, I want you no matter how ugly you are. You just don''t run away in fear." Chapter 210 Chapter 210 "I''m not running away." She pretended to be tough when she said so, but she also felt guilty. After all, she had met Li Han''s grandparents, and their meeting was not pleasant. Thinking of her family, she was even more uncertain. But as he said, it was all going to happen sooner orter. She couldn''t give up now. Besides, he was here for her. They talked on the phone for a while. Then Ye Lihua knocked on the door and asked her to go out for dinner, so Shu Tian hung up in a hurry. Li Han put his phone in his pocket and got out of the car and walked towards the vi. In the guest room at the end of the second floor, the curtains were drawn. Then the curtains behind the french windows, where Jiang Chujing hid, moved slightly. She had been standing there since Li Han sat in the car. She knew that he must be calling that bitch, Shu Tian. Her eyes were filled with jealousy and were so fierce that they almost burst into mes. Fortunately, Shu Tian had already left. Jiang Chujing was the only one that Li Han could see since he couldn''t see Shu Tian these days. Thinking of this, Jiang Chujing calmed down a lot. Although she could not go out and could only stay in the vi, as long as Li Han was with her, everything was not so unbearable. Jiang Chujing pushed the door open and walked out of the guest room. Just as she was about to go downstairs, she stopped when she passed by the master bedroom. Shu Tian and Li Han had been living in this room before, but now Shu Tian had left... Jiang Chujing was scheming for something when she was standing there. After staring at the room for a few seconds, she went downstairs without an unusual expression. Li Han had just changed his shoes at the door. It was almost two o''clock but he hadn''t had lunch yet. Jiang Chujing walked up to him. "Han, do you want Nanny Li to cook something for you?" "No, I have a teleconferenceter." "You still a teleconference?" "It''s a conference with an overseaspany, thest meeting before the end of the year." Li Han was in a good mood and answered all her questions, but he didn''t talk too much and kept a distance from her. "Are you having dinner at home tonight?" Seeing that he was going upstairs, Jiang Chujing hurriedly stopped him. As if she was afraid that he would refuse her, she asked first, "We used to make dumplings at home during the New Year. Although it will just be the two of us this year, can you... Be with me?" She deliberately lowered her tone, as if she was begging him. The loneliness in her tone made him think that if her parents were still alive... Li Han took a deep breath, closed his eyes slightly, and replied. "OK." After that, he turned around and went up to the study on the third floor. Jiang Chujing looked at his back, and the corners of her lips slightly moved up. And just as she was about to tell Nanny Li to prepare the dumpling stuffing, she turned around and met Nanny Li''s slightly aged eyes. Her face went still for a moment, but she quickly calmed down. "Nanny Li, you heard everything." Nanny Li clearly saw that Jiang Chujing was pitiful at first, but then becamecent the next second. Even at her age, Nanny Li thought that it was so terrifying. She had never liked Miss Jiang, but she did not expect Jiang Chujing to be so scheming. "Nanny Li, what''s wrong?" Just as Nanny Li was thinking about it, Jiang Chujing had already walked up to her. Nanny Li came back to her senses and smiled awkwardly. "Nothing. I suddenly remembered that there was no meat at home. I''ll go out and buy someter." Seeing that she was leaving, Jiang Chujing said, "Nanny Li, don''t worry. I will treat you well at home in the future." Nanny Li suddenly became nervous. She knew that she was just a worker and had no right to speak. In fact, what Jiang Chujing said was somewhat a warning. But... Nanny Li turned around and smiled at her. "Miss Jiang, I''m just a servant. It''s all the same to me." Hearing this, Jiang Chujing nodded with satisfaction. "Go ahead to do you stuff." Nanny Li walked quickly into the kitchen and closed the door. She propped her hands on the cold surface of the counter, wondering whether she should warn Shu Tian or not. She realized that Miss Jiang did not regard Mr. Li as her brother, but as her man! [...] At seven o''clock in the evening, Nanny Li brought the dumplings to the table. She made two kinds of dumplings, carrots with mutton, and Spanish mackerel. Mr. Li liked to eat fish, so he liked Spanish mackerel more. Jiang Chujing also specially asked Nanny Li to cook a few more dishes for the New Year, so Nanny Li made ribs, meatballs, and shrimps, which were allmon dishes for New Year''s Eve. All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. Jiang Chujing called Li Han down and put some of every dish into his bowl as if she were asking for credit. "Han, eat it while it''s still hot." Li Han looked at the sumptuous dishes on the table. Nanny Li, as the mostpetent maid, was really good at cooking. Every dish was decent, which made him want to enjoy them. He had a Spanish mackerel dumpling. The meat was delicate and it was vored with a little leek. Although it was light, he liked it very much. "Not bad." Since he liked it, Jiang Chujing was in a better mood. She kept giving him food. Li Han couldn''t stop her, so he just gave in. It was a nice meal. After it, Li Han watched TV with Jiang Chujing for a while, during which he answered a phone call. It should have something to do with business and it took him more than half an hour. After he hung up, he looked at the brightly lit house and felt a little empty. The woman who liked to be busy at home had left for the time being, and the house seemed much more empty. He looked at the furnishings in the living room, the calendar on the table, the vase on the wine cab, and the red Chinese knot on the middle of the wall. Unknowingly, there were already so many things about her. Li Han was suddenly frightened by his depression. It had only been a few days since he hadn''t seen her. But he cared about her so much that he would beughed at if others knew about it. "Han,e in. It''s cold outside." Jiang Chujing turned to him, who was standing by the window and reminded him. Only then did Li Han walk in. He looked at her quietly and thought that something was strange about her tonight, but he just couldn''t tell it. The feelingsted until almost early in the morning. It was not until he got up from bed that Li Han realized what was wrong. At three o''clock in the morning, he got up and went to the bathroom. At night, he drank some ck tea, so his stomach was a little bloated. The lights in the bedroom were not on. Everything in front of him was blurry, and he could not see it clearly. Coming back from the bathroom, he turned off the bathroom light and walked to the bed in the dark. He Soon, he became sleepy, and his eyelids gradually closed. But then he opened his eyes and sobered up. He frowned slightly and lifted the quilt off his body at once. Sensing something strange around him, he turned around and saw Jiang Chujing sleeping on the other side, where Shu Tian used to sleep. Chapter 211 Chapter 211 Li Han was sober now and felt disgusted when indifferently looking at the woman who was in deep sleep. He tried hard to suppress anger and calm down. Then he raised his voice to call her name, "Chujing." Jiang Chujing was still closing her eyes as if she had not heard anyone call her at all. However, her slightly trembling eyshes betrayed her and was noticed by Li Han. He took a deep breath, trying to hold back his temper. "Chujing, I know you''re awake." He was giving her a chance. Jiang Chujing, who was pretending to be asleep at this moment, felt frightened listening to his tone even as she didn''t see his expression now. After thinking for a while, she finally opened her eyes slowly. Under the dim wallmp in the bedroom, she was lying while he was sitting there. Even though the bed was big, they were close to each other. Jiang Chujing looked up at the man beside her and felt her heart race since she had never been so close to Li Han, let alone sleeping on the same bed. "Han..." She called out to him in a deliberate coquettish voice that sounded a little ambiguous in the middle of the night. Li Han decisively turned over and got out of bed. In a few steps, he walked to the door and turned on all the lights in the room. Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. In an instant, the bedroom was filled with bright light. Jiang Chujing seemed to be blinded by the light that she used her hand to block it for a while and then put her hand down. She was only wearing a very thin pajama withce straps and wanted to seduce him. Li Han''s face hadpletely darkened. He asked a little angrily. "Why are you here?" Jiang Chujing grabbed the pajamas on her chest with one hand and protected herself as if she was the one who was scared by others. "I, I had nightmares and I was so scared but I didn''t want to disturb you so I sneaked in..." Then, she was about to cry. "Han, I dreamed about my parents'' car ident. It was so real and vivid as if it reappeared in front of me. I was so scared, especially when I dreamed about my father''s eyes. I was really scared..." Li Han looked at her and calmly said. "Chujing, you can call me if you''re afraid but you can''t sneak into my room. There''s no ce for you here." His words sessfully declined Jiang Chujing. He would always get the point which she cared about the most. She knew that this man was using this method to break her imagination. However, she could stop loving him and never give up. He looked down at the woman sitting in the middle of the bed and said seriously, "You have always dreamed of your parents all these years. I know you''re sad but it''s all over. Don''t think too much..." Li Han had already found something wrong with Jiang Chujing. She kept mentioning the ident of her parents which he felt too heartbroken to mention. However, as a daughter, she did not seem to care as much as she said. As soon as Jiang Chujing heard what he said, she began to feel afraid and quickly got out of bed. "I''m sorry, Han. I didn''t know you would mind so much." "Of course I do." Li Han looked at her with sharp eyes. "You''re the one I treat as my sister but now you''re sneaking into my bed. Do you think it''s appropriate?" Jiang Chujing smiled bitterly and spread out her hands. "I was just sleeping here. I didn''t do anything!" After that, she seemed to think of something and asked, "Are you afraid that Shu Tian will be unhappy? She doesn''t want me to touch her things even if it''s just a bed?" "Jiang Chujing!" Li Han said solemnly. "In fact, you should call her sister-inw." Jiang Chujing seemed to be frightened by his words. She staggered and almost lost her bnce. "What... What did you say?" Li Han did not repeat but said in an interrogative manner, "I know you understand." She knew what he said and just didn''t want to ept the truth. She even lied to herself. Li Han had once made it clear to her but she had never given up. He knew her obsession with him but he didn''t dare to say much to her because of her illness. However, he couldn''t ept her sleeping in his bed without his permission tonight. "Han, I, I didn''t know you would care so much. If I knew, I wouldn''t have done that." Jiang Chujing did not expect him to make it clear so she was a little flustered at that moment. She was afraid that he would hate her while she didn''t get any benefits at the same time. "I shouldn''t have said this to you as you are not in good health but I still want you to understand that I only have affection between family members for you. I believe Shu Tian and will live the rest of my life with her. You don''t have topete with her. You two are different to me and I will not change my attitude towards you at all." His words undoubtedly left no fantasy for Jiang Chujing anymore. She bit her lip and looked at the light gray sheet. "Is she that good? Is she worth all your efforts?" Li Han nodded without hesitation. "Yes." Jiang Chujing smiled pitifully and felt desperate. "Han, you promised my parents that you would stay with me and take care of me for the rest of your life. You still have to break your promise now." "I will take care of you as long as I am still alive." Li Han also told her firmly, "But this is the only rtionship between you and me." "Han..." Jiang Chujing stared at him with wide eyes, not knowing what to say. "Chujing, don''t make things difficult for me. If you continue like this, I can only send you away from me. Don''t force me, okay?" This was undoubtedly what Jiang Chujing was most afraid of hearing. She never thought that Li Han would say this to her one day. She hated Shu Tian and thought this woman was to me. Shu Tian, Shu Tian, Shu Tian! He did all for that bitch! Before she could calm down, Li Han had already let her leave. He pushed the bedroom door open a little and reminded her with a cold look, "Go out." Even though she couldn''t bear to leave, Jiang Chujing still had to. She walked slowly to the door and still asked the moment she brushed past him, "Han, is she that good?" Shu Tian helped him ovee the painful memory. He became mature and changed his attitude towards her and could reasonably talk about her parents'' tragic experience, which made Jiang Chujing start to feel afraid. Jiang Chujing could take advantage of the ident of her parents to require him to do many things. But it would be meaningless if he became rational. Li Han pushed the door open in front of her with a little strength. Just as Jiang Chujing was waiting for his answer, his cold voice came into her ear. "It''s none of your business whether she is good or not." Chapter 212 Chapter 212 Jiang Chujing didn''t know how she got out of the bedroom. She only knew how humiliated she was. She was kicked out by Li Han. She even saw disgust in his eyes. He hated sleeping with her. This sent a chill to Jiang Chujing''s heart. It seemed that at this moment, she realized the huge difference between her and Shu Tian in Li Han''s eyes. He could only see Shu Tian? Jiang Chujing smiled and thought in her mind, ''Okay, then just wait. If I cannot change his mind through tenderness, don''t me me for being cruel!'' [...] After sleeping at home for a night, Shu Tian woke up the next day with dark circles under her eyes. She had no idea if it was because she hadn''te back for a long time, she was not used to sleeping in this bed that she had slept in for more than ten years. The bed in Imperial Vi was softer than the one at home. She had lived there for half a year so she was not prepared when she suddenly changed the bed. It was the New Year''s Eve. There were also some rtives that would celebrate it with them. Shu Changlei, who was the second child in the family, had two brothers. They all would bring their family members to visit him. Every year, there would be a bunch of people together, celebrating. This year''s New Year''s Eve dinner was arranged in a hotel not far from home. It was not particrly spacious, but it was well-decorated. They went to order what to eat and picked up cakes on the way. "Your uncle''s son came back this year. I was told two days ago that he stayed in Ennd for two years. I heard he got a master''s degree in economics there and couldn''t be perkier now." Ye Lihua shook her head and her tone was somewhat helpless. "Your grandmother prefers her eldest son and grandson. She must be happy this year." Shu Tian knew about Ye Lihua''s situation at home all these years. Ye Lihua had suffered a lot when she was young. Shu Tian heard that when Ye Lihua was born, Shu Tian''s grandmother seldom visited Ye Lihua. Shu Tian took her mother''s cracked hand, andforted her, "Mom, I''m here with you." "Well." Ye Lihua sighed. She didn''t want her daughter to see her sadness. She turned to look out the window. "Your father and I have been together for so many years. It doesn''t matter anymore." Shu Tian didn''t know what to say tofort her and could only hold Ye Lihua''s hand tightly. [...] At seven o''clock in the evening, people arrived at the hotel one after another. Shu Tian was waiting at the door to greet her rtives. Her uncle''s family was thest to arrive. In addition to her cousin Shu Minglei and her aunt, they also brought Shu Minglei''s girlfriend over. His girlfriend was petite, about 1.6 meters tall. Although her facial features were not outstanding, her skin was very fair. She looked gentle and sweet, and thus adorable. Shu Tian was a little surprised, but she still weed them into the room politely. At this point, the whole family finally arrived and the family dinner officially began. Shu Tian''s grandfather used to be a high school teacher, so he was used to making a speech. Every time at a family party, he would say a lot. He was an educated man, and he had supported Shu Tian to studyw in the beginning. However, when she got married and quit her job, he was disappointed and became more concerned about Shu Minglei. Now Ming Lei got his master''s degree and brought his girlfriend back, of course, Shu Tian''s grandfather was happy. "Minglei is back this year, and he has a girlfriend. Your grandmother and I are really happy. We are really proud of you!" After hearing this, Shu Tian''s uncle and aunt also smiled from ear to ear and kept praising their son, which made the others a little embarrassed. During the dinner, there were many toasts, and the voices in the room gradually became louder. Shu Tian was not an ostentatious person so she just quietly ate the food on her te. At the end of the dinner, Ye Lihua gave the gifts that she had prepared to her family, some of which were brought by Li Han. He had brought her too many things, so she wanted to give some to others. When it was his uncle''s turn, Ye Lihua gave him a box of good cordyceps and bird''s nest. It was nice, but when his aunt nced at the package, her expression immediately changed, with a weird smile. "Oh, these are quite expensive, right? My son used to post them online. He said they were sold by grams and were more expensive than gold." Ye Lihua only knew that they were not cheap, but she really had no idea how much they cost. She was not a vain person, so she said honestly, "I don''t know how much they were. Someone gave them to me. You can take them. They are good for your health, and you can give them to the elder." "Someone else gave them to you?" Her aunt rolled her eyes, picked it up and examined it. "Who gave it to you?" Shu Tian''s previous marriage to Tang Zechen was glorious. After all, the Tang family was already better off than most average families. Now that she was divorced, how could she find such a good thing? Ye Lihua was a little unhappy that she asked so much, but she didn''t show it. She just replied perfunctorily, "One of Tian''s friends." However, instead of giving up, Shu Tian''s aunt said in a sour tone, "It seems that they are not just friends. Shu Tian is really somebody. Even after getting divorced, she can still find a good husband so soon..." Shu Tian wondered the meaning of her aunt''s words. Perhaps she was just straightforward and brainless, but no matter what, her words made Shu Tian ufortable. Since Shu Tian entered the room, no one had talked about the divorce. Everyone avoided this sensitive topic intentionally or unintentionally. However, her auntmented on it and acted like she derived great pleasure from talking about that. Usually, she wouldn''t care. But in front of Ye Lihua, Shu Tian couldn''t bear it any longer and politely retorted, "Auntie, I''m super ttered. No matter how outstanding I am, I can''tpare to my cousin. He has a sessful academic career. He even has a girlfriend now. Is he going to get married next year?" Her aunt immediately covered her mouth and smiled. "Not so fast. It depends on how he studies abroad were." If he was not prepared for marriage, why did he bring his girlfriend home now? Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Ye Lihua had already seen Shu Tian through and nced at the two young men. "Minglei is old enough to get married." "There''s no hurry." Auntie meaningfully nced at Shu Tian. "Now the young are in such a hurry to get married and thus many of them get divorced soon. There is nothing to lose for them to slow down and know each other better. After all, Tian is suffering from getting married too early..." Ye Lihua, who had suppressed her anger for a long time, finally exploded. She could say something about her daughter''s unsessful marriage, but other people were in no position to do that! "Sister-inw, I don''t like to hear that. What''s wrong with Tian? Divorce is amon urrence now. It''s all their choice and others have no right to judge them. Besides, now Tian has a new start, why did you mention that again?" Chapter 213 Chapter 213 Hearing that, the auntie stopped smiling and spread out her hands speechlessly. "Lihua, why did you say that? How could I be the only one to me? Shu Tian was not going well this year. It was none of me and Minglei''s business. Why did you vent your anger on us?" "You know who vented her anger." Being unbearably indignant, Ye Lihua muttered, "Someone just disdains that others are better than her!" "You!" Auntie was speechless with anger. The two old people at home noticed that the atmosphere here was unfavorable. They looked over discontentedly, "What''s wrong? Why are you arguing during the new year?" "Dad, mom, I didn''t say anything just now. But my sister-inw seriously said that I was mocking Shu Tian. It was true that Tian was unhappy this year. I just casually said it." "Did you say it casually?" Ye Lihua asked straightforward. "You mentioned "divorced" again and again. Was it upset for the child?" "It is the truth. Why can''t I mention it? Besides, I have no malice!" Auntie nced at the two old people and deliberately provoked, "You just see that Minglei came back with a girlfriend. In contrast, you feel ufortable. Yes, Shu Tian was in the limelight at home before, but you can''t let others down!" "When did I say that?" Ye Lihua was furious, "You''re talking nonsense!" However, the auntie did not respond directly and still mentioned Shu Minglei, "We are a family. It''s so good to be in harmony. Minglei came back for the new year. You really..." At that point, the auntie paused as if she was speechless. Ye Lihua was bordered on crying and didn''t expect that the auntie could say so many nasty words. The two old people were most partial to Shu Minglei andforted the auntie, "Lihua, don''t be too angry. During the new year. It''s better to be kind!" It was as if Ye Lihua was looking for trouble on purpose. Shu Tian didn''t want to get involved in the affairs of adults. But when hearing these words, she walked from her seat to the auntie and brought back the two boxes of top-grade cordyceps and bird''s nest, "I wanted to give the gifts to you. Since you don''t appreciate it, forget it. Grandpa is right. Peace breeds wealth during the new year. Auntie, we don''t want topete with each other. I''m happier than anyone else that my brother lives a good life. As an elder, my mother won''t think much about it. You can rest assured. As for me..." She smiled at Faang Yue with a polite and cold smile, "You don''t need to worry about me. Even if I get divorced, I am able to buy the cordyceps valued tens of thousands of dors." Then, everyone was silent in the private room. In fact, she knew that they had more or less learned about her from the news. In the past, she married Tang Zechen, not for money. They thought she lived a better life with numerous wealth. She had never felt anything. Now that she was divorced, there must be someone gossiping about her. She had never been a high- profile person, but she could not help venting her anger at that moment. "So what if I get divorced? Wasn''t I better than you?" Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Looking at Faang Yue''s terrible expression, Shu Tian didn''t care what she was thinking and poured a ss of water and handed it to Ye Lihua to calm her down. Everyone felt unhappy that the dinner party had a bad ending and finished the dinner quickly. Although the two old people did not say anything on the surface, they must be med for Shu Tian. Shu Changlei had drunk a lot and his face blushed. When they left the restaurant, Shu Tian thought he would me her, but he didn''t say anything and just told her to drive back home. A small detail made her feel even sadder. Only then did she realize that her divorce had put a lot of pressure on her parents. When they got home, Shu Changlei washed up and then went to sleep. Ye Lihua sat in the living room watching TV and said that she would wait for thest skit of the new year. Shu Tian was boiling water in the kitchen, but through the crack of the door, she saw Ye Lihua wiping her tears. It was a funny show, but her mother was crying. Shu Tian took a deep breath and tried to hold back tears. Beside her was a steaming kettle. Outside the window, the sky was filled with fireworks from time to time, but Shu Tian didn''t feel happy. The new year was more depressing than ever. Just as she was deep in thought, the phone in her pocket suddenly rang. Who it would be at this time? Having calmed down, she saw that it was from Li Han and quickly answered, "Hello?" "Happy new year." He said in a deep and warm voice. It was a simple sentence, but at that moment, she wanted to cry. Thinking of what happened tonight, she felt grieved and tried to answer calmly. "You too, happy new year." However, he noticed her emotions and the nasal sound. He frowned and asked seriously, "Are you crying?" She didn''t expect him to notice her emotions so quickly, "No, I just yawned..." Hearing that, he didn''t reply. She could only vaguely hear a rustling sound. After being silent for a long time, she could not hear a response and thought he had disconnected, "Hello?" "I''m here." he said, "I just transferred you the money on the phone." Money? She was confused, "Wait a minute..." She took the phone off her ear and clicked into PayPal. It had not been long since they had added the contact. At that moment, she noticed the money he sent just now. More than sixty thousand! She was shocked and had never received the kind of new year gift. Then, she put the phone back in her ear, "Why are you transferring so much?" She asked him for a new yeat gift just for luck and she could get a small amount of money, but now she didn''t even dare to ept arge amount of money. It was not a small sum for her. "So much?" He was much calmer. "Only once a year. Not much. ept it." At that time, Zhang Bikun told him that it was a good new year gift. For the first time in her life, she felt like she was being kept by a rich man. He sent her more than 60000 dors. How much money did he have? Chucking, she wanted to refuse. Before she could say anything, he said directly, "If you didn''t ept it, I will try other wayster." "Well, you win." After hesitantly clicking on the transfer message, she received the money and then said respectfully, "Thank you, boss." They chatted for a while. Just as she felt better and was about to hang up to pour the water into the thermos, a soft click came from the microphone. Then, he said in a maic and steady voice, "Come down. I''m downstairs at your house." Chapter 214 Chapter 214 "Downstairs?" Shu Tian subconsciously looked down from the window. Then she realized that the kitchen was not facing the road. She suddenly thought of the low voice just now. She timed it and found that he had gone out immediately after receiving her call. She once believed that he had been deceived, but she didn''t expect the man to go downstairs directly without telling her. A lumping into her throat, Shu Tian didn''t know what to say. Seemingly understanding her feeling, Li Han said calmly, "Come down. I''ll wait for you." After hanging up, Shu Tian poured water into the thermos. Out of the kitchen, she saw Ye Lihua still sitting in the living room. She took out the garbage bag that she had just tidied up and said guiltily, "Mom, I''ll go down to take out the trash and watch fireworks." Ye Lihua nodded and told her, "Don''t go too far. There are few people on the road during the Spring Festival." "I see." Out of the house, she quickened her pace down the stairs, making her dizzy. As soon as she rushed out of the unit door, she saw a ck car parked under a tree nearby. Shu Tian trotted over and knocked on the window, signaling him to open the door. With a click, the central lock fell. She opened the door and went in, instantly surrounded by the heat in the car. "Why are you here?" She asked in an unbelievable and surprising voice. Li Han turned to look at her eyes, which were obviously red. He raised his hand to touch it, worried. "Are you crying again in the Spring Festival?" "No." Shu Tian was a little embarrassed. She pushed his hand away. "I''m not crying." Li Han ignored her stubbornness and continued, "Are you unhappy with your family?" "No." "Then what''s wrong?" Seeing that she had been evading an answer, Li Han looked at her seriously in a heavy mood. "Shu Tian, I''m asking you seriously." Seeing it was impossible to prevaricate, she awkwardly told him what had happened at dinner tonight. Since she was a child, Shu Changlei had always told that domestic shame should not be made public, so it was difficult for her to tell him that. Li Han was filled with mixed feelings, not furious, nor angry, but sorry for her. If the person was not Shu Tian''s aunt, he would definitely make her in trouble. Unfortunately, he couldn''t. "Then take me to meet my parents as soon as possible so that others won''t gossip." It was the only and best way to solve these problems. Shu Tian was annoyed as well. She had thought it was best to let nature take its course, but she forgot that besides herself, her parents were also under pressure for her. After deliberation, she found that she must face these problems, or the irresponsible behavior would hurt the people around her. She thought about it and said, "How about the fourth day of the lunar new year? My father has promised you, and if my mother has time to go, I won''t stop her, okay?" "Sure." Li Han had been eager for meeting them for a long time, but he hadn''t grasped the chance. "I will go back to China in that afternoon. Nanny Li will also be here. You can call your mother to have dinner. We have enough time." "Okay, that''s settled then." After saying that, a loud sound came from outside. Then a colorful me exploded in the dark night. Two distinct colors, yellow and red, intertwined, made up the style of flowers festively and beautifully. The light shone on Li Han''s handsome features, as vivid as a beautiful painting. He was watching fireworks, while she was gazing at him. Noticing her burning gaze, Li Han lowered his head and looked into her eyes. At that moment, a spark was suddenly lit up, more powerful. Perhaps it was because the atmosphere was too addictive, or because beauty was in the eyes of the beholder. In Shu Tian''s eyes, all the fireworks and scenery were less attractive than the man. From the moment he had appeared downstairs, she could only see him. How gentle he was! He drove the car for nearly an hour to apany her, just afraid that she cried alone. Actually, he also had his own family to apany on the night of Lunar New Year''s Eve. Shu Tian knew that it would be uneasy, but he came withoutint, nor telling her in advance. She felt no aggrieved, just infinitely moved. "Li Han..." Shu Tian sat up and leaned forward a little, her eyes fixing on every part of his face. "I''m here." He smiled, showing a moving sincerity. After saying that, he immediately held Shu Tian''s face and kissed her. Without hesitation, he took all the initiative. A kiss was enough for the soul mates. His warm breath entangled her nose, transforming into the most charming force. Fireworks outside the window bloomedyer uponyer, but at this time, she was not in the mood to appreciate it and just wanted to covet his warm embrace. "I''ll go to the ind tomorrow. How can I leave without worry?" He stroked on her heavy coat with his big palm, trying tofort her. Hearing that he was leaving tomorrow, Shu Tian unconsciously clenched her hands. "Thene back early on the day. I''ll go to find you." She knew that he needed to rx during the Lunar New Year, and she couldn''t give him more apany. It was good for him to have a good time abroad. Li Han lowered his head and gave a gentle kiss on her head. "Call me whenever you need. If I can''t Shu Tian didn''t want to worry him, so she nodded obediently. "Okay." Then she thought of something again. "By the way, is Jiang Chujing really not here?" Although she had asked him once before, she wanted to make sure. "She''s going back to the vi in the north of the city for the time being. Nanny Li will follow her and Li Wei will take care of her. Everything will be fine." After receiving a reassuring answer, Shu Tian secretly relieved and threw herself back into his arms. "I''ll miss you." "Remember to give me a video call." Li Han never knew that one day he would be so attached to a person. It was just three or four days, but it seemed that he was going to leave for three or four years. They stayed in the car for a while. It was a littlete when Ye Lihua called. Only then did Shu Tian reluctantly say goodbye to him. "I''m leaving?" "Well, go up." Li Han opened the door for her and didn''t forget to ask for a kiss. This rtionship was beyond their imagination. Thinking that they would meet their parents in a few days, Shu Tian fantasized about the style of clothes she would be wearing and kept thinking about the answers to the questions she would be asked. Shu Tian spent the festival in this uneasy and expectant mood. Time flied. As Ye Lihua visited her rtives and friends, in a blink of an eye, it was the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Shu Tian made an appointment with Ye Lihua in advance for 3: 30 pm, and she had nned to go there with her mother, but she didn''t expect Shu Changlei to suddenly ask for a following. It made her even more nervous and she quickly sent a message to Li Han. The man was in confidence N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. andforted her not to be nervous. Shu Changlei drove them towards the Imperial Vi. Although she had been here countless times, Shu Tian was more nervous than ever. Looking around the imposing vis, Ye Lihua was a little scared. "Well... it will take Mr. Li lots of money to buy a house here, right?" Before Shu Tian could figure out what to say, Shu Changlei snorted. "Of course! Houses here are worth tens of millions." Ye Lihua stopped talking. Apparently, she was also very nervous. Finally, the car reached Li Han''s. They got out of the car. Shu Tian walked at the front, about to unlock the door, but the door suddenly opened. Looking up, she saw that it was Nanny Li. Shu Tian paused for a moment and showed a happy expression. "Nanny Li, you came back early?" Unlike her ease, Nanny Li was embarrassed and hesitated in speaking. Before Shu Tian could understand, she saw a beautiful figure. Jiang Chujing walked to the door with a smile in a housecoat as if she was the hostess. However, the moment she saw Shu Tian''s parents, she froze and blinked, looking around them a few times and asking after interrogation. "Who are you two?" Obviously, Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua were shocked to see another woman here, but since they were sophisticated, Shu Changlei quickly came back to his senses and replied gently, "And you?" Unexpectedly, Jiang Chujing seemed to regard it as a joke. She smiled briefly and pointed at herself. "I''m the girlfriend of the owner of this house." Chapter 215 Chapter 215 Everyone was shocked by Jiang Chujing''s words, including Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei who just arrived at the door. They looked at Shu Tian, waiting for an exnation. Shu Tian was also surprised by Jiang Chujing. However, she didn''t retreat but chose to question Jiang Chujing, "Miss Jiang, you have to be responsible for your words. I don''t know you were the hostess of N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. this house." "Han and I grew up together. It was nice of me to let you live here before. What? Do you want your whole family to move in here now? You''re too shameless." Jiang Chujing was not as tolerant as before but put on a sarcastic attitude. Shu Tian didn''t know why Jiang Chujing had changed so dramatically, but she knew that none of Jiang Chujing''s words was true. "Jiang Chujing, Li Han treats you as his sister. Why are you trying to disgrace him?" Shu Tian didn''t want to argue with Jiang Chujing at the door, and she said seriously, "This isn''t your house. Get out of the way." "This is not your house, either." It seemed that Jiang Chujing didn''t want to let Shu Tian go and continued, "If he only regards me as his sister, why would he let me live here? I''ve been with Han for so many years. None of you can determine our rtionship. What''s more, if he loves you, how can he let you stay with me?" Jiang Chujing was sure that Shu Tian''s parents didn''t know the exact situation, and said to the two elders, "You don''t know that the three of us live together, do you?" Her words could indeed make others confused. If Han really thought of her as his sister, it would be crazy for her to say these words. But if Li Han really liked Shu Tian, it didn''t make sense why the three of them were living together. Hearing that, Shu Changlei became unhappy, and he didn''t sound as rxed as before. He asked Shu Tian seriously, "Tian, what is going on?" All of the cheerful feelings were going, and Shu Changlei only felt embarrassed now. Shu Tian managed to calm down and replied, "Mom, dad, she is crazy. Don''t listen to her. I''ll call Li Han and ask him to exin to you." However, Jiang Chujing was not in a panic, nor did she stop Shu Tian from calling Li Han. "Sorry, the number you dialed is busy. Please try againter. Sorry..." It upset Shu Tian that she couldn''t get through. She tried it again but it was the same result. Jiang Chujing stood in front of Shu Tian and Shu Tian''s parents and said arrogantly, "What? Did he pick it up?" Shu Tian took a deep breath and ignored Jiang Chujing''s provocation. She turned to Shu Changlei and said, "Mom, dad, he may be busy now. I can''t connect him." Hearing this, Jiang Chujing became more excited and said sarcastically, "If he really cares about you, how could he not answer your call?" Shu Tian was annoyed by Jiang Chujing''s words. She was fine, but she didn''t want her parents to be upset. She fought back, "Jiang Chujing, what''s the point of being so mean right now? Do you think Li Han can forgive you for such rude behavior in the name of his sister?" "Li Han is indebted to my parents. He won''t me me. Shu Tian, if I were you, I would quit the rtionship instead of shaming myself and my parents. Who are you to talk me this like? You are a third personing between Han and me." "Shut up!" "What? You felt hurt?" Jiang Chujing observed Shu Changlei''s flushed face from the corner of her eye and said slowly, "You''ve been divorced, and there are so many bad rumors about you. Do you think the Li family will ept you so easily? My parents and Han''s parents are good friends, and it''s natural for us to be together. I thought you would leave here eventually, and that''s why I have been tolerating you, but I didn''t expect you to bring your parents here in such a hurry." "You..." "Shut up!" At this moment, Shu Changlei interrupted the conversation between Shu Tian and Jiang Chujing. He was very excited but tried to sound calm, "Miss, although I don''t know who you are and what your purpose is, Shu Tian is definitely not someone''s mistress. I believe my daughter." "Okay." Jiang Chujing folded her arms around her chest and looked at Shu Changlei calmly. "Then, please exin why we live together? Who would let his beloved live in the same house with another woman?" Shu Changlei was choked by Jiang Chujing''s question. Traditional as he was, he couldn''t understand why a man and two women lived in the same house. It was imappropriate. He was not in the mood of meeting Shu Tian and Li Han, so he said, "Forget about it. Let''s go home." "Dad." Shu Tian walked to the front and stopped Shu Changlei. "We didn''t do anything wrong. Why should we go? You can ask Li Han when hees back. Everything will be clear." Jiang Chujing was really afraid that Shu Changlei would agree to leave. After all, what she said was all fake and her lies would be disclosed by Li Han when he came back. But she was relieved to hear Shu Changlei''s answer. "It''s not embarrassing enough, isn''t it? You asked me and your mother toe here, but we were blocked outside the house. No matter what the rtionship between the three of you is, it''s too ridiculous." Shu Changlei was conservative, and it was uneptable for him that Shu Tian shared a house with another woman. From Jiang Chujing''s attitude, he could feel that something was wrong. It was hard for Shu Tian to exin it either. Everything happened very suddenly, and Li Han was not here. She could only try to exin more, "Dad, it''s not what you think." "Then what it is? If others don''t think so, how can they say it? It''s not right for you to live with such people." Shu Changlei was so anxious that he became irrational. He blurted out, "It''s nothing wrong for you to get divorced, but it''s wrong to put yourself in such a low position." "Dad!" Shu Tian looked at Shu Changlei, unable to believe what her father had said. "That''s enough, your mother and I are leaving." Shu Changlei insisted on leaving, and Ye Lihua couldn''t stop him. Shu Tian was so anxious, so was Nanny Li who was watching beside them. Just as Nanny Li was about to back up for Shu Tian, Jiang Chujing made the situation worse by saying, "Mr. Shu and Mrs. Shu, since you know about my rtionship with Han this time, please discipline your daughter in the future. She has her own home, right? It''s not appropriate for her to stay at someone else''s house." Shu Changlei had been holding his anger, and he was even angrier after hearing this. However, he couldn''t find an outlet to vent his anger. He had high blood pressure and heart disease. All of a sudden, he felt great pain in his heart. He covered his left chest and staggered, which shocked Shu Tian and Ye Lihua. They quickly went to hold Shu Changlei. However, Shu Changlei suddenly fell down. Startled, Shu Tian and Ye Lihua managed toy Shu Changlei down on the ground. Shu Changlei''s eyes were closed, and his breathing was very fast as if he could not breathe. He looked pained, and his hands that were covering his heart unconsciously tightened. Seeing Shu Changlei like this, Ye Lihua burst into tears and knelt down beside him shouting at Shu Tian, "Your father has a heart attack. Call 911!" Chapter 216 Chapter 216 Shu Tian didn''t dare to waste time. The moment she saw Shu Changlei fall, her legs were weak and her heart tightened. But she couldn''t fall down. She must see Shu Changlei safe and sound... She called ambnce, shivering, telling the address and Shu Changlei''s condition to medical staff. Not seeing the patient, the doctor couldn''t make an urate diagnose and persuaded her to calm down. Jiang Chujing never anticipated such a situation to happen. She only wanted to kick out the Shu Tian family but did not expect Shu Changlei to have a heart attack. Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. She panicked but soon calmed down. He had a heart attack. So what? It wasn''t caused by her but was out of his bad luck, however... Jiang Chujing quickly thought about the severity of it. If she only kicked out the Shu family, Li Han would not do anything to her even if he was angry, but if Shu Changlei was involved... She probably wouldn''t get anything good. Her eyes fell on Shu Tian, who happened to look at her. For the first time, Jiang Chujing saw a huge amount of hatred and anger in her eyes, like a burning me, which was about to hurt her. Shu Tian actually made her shudder. Since Jiang Chujing had no sense of guilt at all, thest trace of calm in Shu Tian''s mind perished. How could a person be so shameless? She had never known that someone could be so vicious and horrible. Seeing Ye Lihua kneeling beside Shu Changlei and Shu Changlei''s pale and painful face, for the first time, Shu Tian got the urge to destroy a person. She struggled to stand up and walked towards Jiang Chujing step by step. Every step closer, Jiang Chujing would take a corresponding step back. Shu Tian thought she was fearful but didn''t expect it to be her plot. Jiang Chujing was forced into the house and walked through the front yard. Then she held one step to the poolside. She nced at the clean pool behind her from the corner of her eye and stopped, pretending to be inadvertent. "Shu Tian, what do you want?" "You have the gall to ask me?" She stood still with her scarlet eyes and was driven out of her senses by anger. Her voice trembled uncontrobly. "You can put all your attack direct to me. Why are you ying dirty with my parents? Aren''t you afraid of retribution?!" Jiang Chujing was quite nervous, but she said calmly, "Who knew he had a heart problem?" From her tone and attitude, it seemed that it had nothing to do with her even if he died. "Ha," Shu Tian was so angry tough instead. Thest trace of temperature in her eyes also receded, leaving only deep coldness. "Do you think that the whole world will indulge you for your disease?" Her eyes were fixed on Jiang Chujing, bursting into endless hatred instantly like a de scratching her skin. But in front of Shu Tiaan stood a person who was so extremely thick-skinned that it did not hurt at all. She could even stand here calmly and quarrelled on her. An uncontroble impulse surged up in Shu Tian''s heart. She stepped forward, looking at the smiling face, and reached out to choke her out. "Ah!" Jiang Chujing eximed and soon became silent because the hand holding her throat was gradually tightening. Shu Tian controlled her strength, cutting off her oxygen to torture her slowly. "Once you get this disease, you should go die, instead of hurting or dragging others down. Is there any significance for you to live in the word?" Shu Tian spoke the most vicious words to vent. Seeing Shu Changlei fall, shepletely lost her mind, "Jiang Chujing, do you think Li Han loves you? He doesn''t love you but even hates you. He feels that you are like a burden loading him. Everything he does to you is because of your parents instead of you. You are extremely ridiculous, but you even dreamed of getting him. I tell you, even in the next life, he won''t love you!" Jiang Chujing, who was expressionless all the time, suddenly lost her cool. Her eyes widened, and even the corners of her mouth twitched unconsciously. The reality she had been avoiding was spoken out by Shu Tian, which was really satiric. Jiang Chujing was about to struggle, but then she nced at the door not far away and saw a ck shadow sh past quickly. It only took her a second to see the person''s face clearly. And meanwhile, she gambled with her life to make a decision. Shu Tian was pinching her neck and had no time to notice anything else for her irritation, but at this moment, Jiang Chujing suddenly fell into the pool behind her. Shu Tian could not hold her and saw her fall into the pool with a big ssh. She looked at the woman in the water, stunned for a moment. Just as she came back to her senses and was about to jump down to save her, a huge force suddenly pulled her away. She directly fell down to the hard ground. A nimble figure jumped into the pool. Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Shu Tian sat on the ground in a daze. She didn''t push Jiang Chujing. She just held her neck but didn''t push her back. So Jiang Chujing fell into the water because she saw Li Haning. Shu Tian suddenly understood why she had retreated into the courtyard of the vi and why she had been "forced" to the side of the pool. Even at that moment, Jiang Chujing still found a way out for herself. It was extremely horrible. Shu Tian suddenly felt a chill all over her body. She staggered to her feet from the ground. Before she could see what was going on, Li Han had already saved Jiang Chujing out of the pool. Jiang Chujing was not well. She kept spitting water with her body twitching slightly. Even her eyes were rolling, and her mouth was muttering in horror, "Han, save me, save me..." Save her? Shu Tian''s feet seemed to be nailed to the ground. Jiang Chujing jumped down herself, but she asked someone else to save her? She wanted to exin, telling him that Jiang Chujing had fallen in on her own and that she had not tight her hard or wanted to kill her. However, just as she was going to speak, she heard the man standing in front of her saying in a gentle tone, "Don''t be afraid. I''m here. I''ll take you to the hospital now." All the words she wanted to say were swallowed back. She was in a daze, seeing the tall man carefully and gently holding the woman in his arms. The careful care and cherish made her couldn''t say any words. The man''s icy gaze looked over as if he was going to freeze her to pieces. He gazed at her with dark and coldness, and asked, "Are you satisfied?" Shu Tian felt all the warmth of her body vanish instantly. She was not the one who fell into the water but felt colder than anyone else. She felt so cold as if her blood was almost frozen together. Her limbs was cold to numb and couldn''t move. She wanted to smile at him and say, "You don''t believe me," But he didn''t even want to waste the time waiting for her to speak, holding the woman in his arms, and left her hurriedly without looking back. Shu Tian stood still. She didn''t know if he had seen Shu Changlei lying on the ground when he entered the door. She didn''t even dare to think about the scene that he frowned and looked at her in disappointment. His gentlefort to another woman echoed in her ears, "Don''t be afraid, I''m here." He picked up the woman who hurt her the most and left, ignoring her and abandoning her without looking back like Tang Zechen... Shu Tian smiled so sadly. Perhaps she had never understood this man. Chapter 217 Chapter 217 Shu Tian didn''t know how she got to the hospital from the vi. She was taken there by ambnce and was like a zombie. She watched Shu Changlei being pushed into the operating room and then being pushed out, and finally being arranged in a VIP ward. More dramatically, Jiang Chujing''s ward was downstairs, but Li Han hadn''te to Shu Tian for the past three hours. He didn''t care about her anymore. This thing exposed all his feelings. Between Jiang Chujing and her, he chose Jiang Chujing without hesitation. Even if Shu Tian''s father''s heart attacked because of being enraged by Jiang Chujing, he still asked Shu Tian if she had been satisfied reproachfully. Looking at Shu Changlei, who was lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, Shu Tian felt sad, thinking that her efforts recently were ridiculous and pathetic. Seeing Shu Tian''s red eyes, Ye Lihua couldn''t bear to me her, walked over and patted her on the shoulder, "Go rest for a while. I''m here to take care of your father." Shu Tian stared nkly for a while, then raised her hand to wipe her tears. Without saying anything, she got up and left the ward. She walked all the way to the window at the end of the corridor. The cold wind outside blew in, breaking her disguise and exposing her weakness. Her tears kept falling down, like a broken bead ne. A few hours ago, she had been happily telling Shu Changlei that she was going to Li Han''s home and introducing her beloved man to her parents with great anticipation. In the blink of an eye, everything changed, making her realize that everything that had happened before was a bubble. Li Han didn''t trust Shu Tian at all. Shu Tian crossed her arms, cold as if she had been pulled out of the icy cold water. Was she disappointed? It didn''t seem to be. She was more than desperate. Li Han was so good at disguising that she hadn''t taken Jiang Chujing seriously. Perhaps Jiang Chujing was right. Shu Tian was the third person between them. Just as she was in a daze, Ling Junze hurried over, his face full of anxiety, "Shu Tian, uncle is in stable condition. A blood vessel in his heart is blocked because he was ignited. He needs a heart stents surgeryter. I''ve already discussed the n with his attending doctor. You don''t have to be too anxious." "How much does the surgery cost?" Shu Tian raised her hand to wipe the tears off her face. At this point, she didn''t want anyone to see her embarrassment. "It''s doesn''t matter. You don''t have to worry about medical expenses. We will charge Li Han." In fact, Ling Junze did not intend to charge her, but he was afraid that she would insist on paying, so he said casually. Li Han? She was afraid she wouldn''t need him anymore. Shu Tian gave a wry smile silently. After a while, she asked him, "What''s going on with Jiang Chujing?" Ling Junze was in a daze for a moment. He hesitated for a while, thinking about how to reply to her, but Shu Tian said, "Just tell me the truth. I know everything." Ling Junze sighed, "Not very well. There is water in her lungs, and her blood pressure is unstable. All her body functions don''t work well. She needs more observation. The doctors in the United States have already rushed here." "Have she woken up?" "Yes, she just woke up." Ling Junze looked at his watch and said exactly, "Ten minutes ago." Shu Tian nodded and took a deep breath, "I want to visit her downstairs." Ling Junze was surprised at her request. He wanted to refuse. After all, they must be in a conflict, and if she went now... However, when he saw the deep sadness in her eyes, he could not say anything to refuse. Well, he still trusted Shu Tian more. It was not an option to stop her. Besides, Li Han was filled with mixed feelings now, so it was good for him and Shu Tian to have a talk. Ling Junze took Shu Tian to the ward downstairs. Through the door, Shu Tian saw the tall figure sitting by the bed. The man bent down slightly, facing the woman on the bed. Jiang Chujing seemed to have seen them. She slightly raised her hand that was clipped with the instrument but was quickly grabbed by the man''s hand. Shu Tian ate her heart out. As she closed her eyes, Ling Junze knocked on the door just in time. He might be afraid that she would feel worse if she saw more. Hearing the sound, Li Han turned to open the door, but when seeing Shu Tian, he was shocked. Soon, he regained his senses and asked her in a hoarse voice, "How is uncle?" Shu Tian''s whole heart seemed to have been soaked in sour lemon. The strong acid was corroding her heart bit by bit, making her pained. If this hadn''t happened, howforting and moved would she be when she heard this? Shu Tian did not dare to think deeply. She just looked over his tall body at the woman in the ward, choked with sobs, and said in a trembling voice, "I have something to say." Li Han shook inside, flustered for no reason. "She''s not stable yet and can''t be freaked. If you want to say something, let''s go to the office..." Shu Tian sneered before he could finish speaking. There was a mist in her big crystal eyes, "Is it inconvenient?" Then, she nodded and walked to the bench beside her to sit down, "Let''s talk here." Ling Junze wanted her to go to his office, but Li Han stopped him with a look. As an outsider, Ling Junze couldn''t say anything more, so he could only leave. Li Han nced at the woman sitting upright on the stool and walked over to sit beside her, "Go ahead." "In the vi, Jiang Chujing stopped my parents and said that she was your childhood sweetheart and your girlfriend and that I was a mistress. What she said was harsh and unpleasant. She insulted me and my parents. My father was enraged and had a heart attack. Nanny Li was there and could testify." Shu Tian said word by word, trying to suppress her anger and sadness. She just wanted to tell him the truth, whether he believed it or not. Hearing this, Li Han was somewhat shocked. Although Jiang Chujing always loved him, she had never said it openly. However, he didn''t doubt Shu Tian''s words because he didn''t know that Jiang Chujing woulde back from North Vis today. She should havee back on the next day. Li Wei did not report her return to him, so there must be a scheme. It seemed that Jiang Chujing''s intention was to meet Shu Tian''s parents there. Shu Tian caught a glimpse of the man''s gloomy side face from the corner of her eye. His eyes were All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. elusive and there were iprehensible emotions. But at this moment, she was not in the mood to specte but just told him what happened, "I admit that when I saw my father fall to the ground, I was very angry, irritated, and even wished I could kill her. But even if her words provoked me, I just grabbed her neck without the intent to kill her, let alone push her down. I didn''t exert any force." The man''s thin lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he held back. Li Han breathed heavily, and his eyes were full of hostility and cold, "Maybe, you just thought you didn''t exert force." No matter how unreasonable Jiang Chujing was, she would not put her life at risk. Her whole body was in the water, but she couldn''t swim. If there was an ident, she would not see the sun tomorrow. She would never put her life on the line. Shu Tian slightly raised her head and looked at him, expressionless. She was already numb because of being hurt by him. His words made her unwilling to exin anymore. She thought it unnecessary. No matter how much you said, it was futile if a person didn''t believe you. She looked at the pair of eyes that had once been gentle, and now there was only cold inside, and her eyes became misty, "So, you don''t believe me." The man turned his face with delicate features slightly as if asking her or himself, "Tell me why did she do this, huh?" Their eyes met, and they both looked sad. Shu Tian looked away first. She smiled, stood up alone, shook her head, and whispered, "I pushed her. That''s right. It''s me." If she couldn''t exin, then she could only let him misunderstand her and leave. Chapter 218 Chapter 218 Li Han was depressed and solemn when noticing Shu Tian''s silent look after she acquiesced it, and he clenched his hands hanging by his side, "I know she must have made a mistake first, and I know your standpoints, but she would die. I thought you wouldn''t hurt her physically even if you were angry and willful." Shu Tian looked up at him, "Didn''t what she did hurt my father? You mean, Jiang Chujing''s life is worth something, but my family''s life is not?" The two of them stood facing each other and failed to reach harmony. Li Han wanted to say something, but when he saw her serious expressions, he could not utter a word. After a long time, his clenched fists were loosened, "Let''s wait for the treatment result first. If anything happens to her, how can I face her?" Now Shu Changlei''s condition was still unknown, but Li Han was thinking about how to face Jiang Chujing? Shu Tian felt disappointed and watched the man turn around and enter the ward again, leaving her with a resolute back as at that time. What''s the point of all this? She was just asking for an insult. Shu Tian had never felt so exhausted to the extreme and had no love but only resentment for him. Shu Tian slowly turned around and walked in the opposite direction. She closed her eyes and cried. Just stop it, Shu Tian. Stop dreaming. [...] When Li Han returned to the ward, instead of sitting by the bed, he walked straight to the window. It was almost 7:30 p.m. When night fell, everything was immersed in darkness. A few lonely streetmps were being blown by the cold wind, which was just like his mood at this moment. Shu Tian''s tearful eyes were still haunting in front of him. His beloved girl almost killed his savior''s daughter, so he did not dare to rx a bit. Finally, he said those words to her coldly. Jiang Chujing was lying on the hospital bed with several tubes on her body. She could not move at all. Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Although she was painful, at least she had Li Han by her side. No matter what the reason was why this man was here, at least he stayed, and was not with Shu Tian, which was enough for Jiang Chujing. Thinking of this, she was secretly overjoyed. Behind Li Han, there were two eyes fixed on him. It was not that he did not know this, but he just did not look back, afraid that he would get mad at her. With her current physical and psychological condition, she was absolutely suffer. Li Han knew that Jiang Chujing had ruined everything, so when this happened, he had decided that no matter what happened to her, he would never let the two women see each other after this. It was impossible for him to separate from Shu Tian, so he would ask Jiang Chujing to leave and find someone to take good care of her. He could not take anything else into ount. However, Jiang Chujing could only be told about this when she got better. Perhaps Ling Junze was right in the beginning. Li Han should have taken swift and ruthless action, instead of making a decision until today after the situation had evolved to this step by step. Li Han thought of everything as too simple and forgot that he could not have his cake and eat it too. He could only hold on for a while longer. As long Jiang Chujing was discharged from the hospital, he would make it all clear. Knock, knock, knock. Someone was knocking on the door of the ward from outside, and Li Han came back to his senses. He calmed himself down and said in a deep voice, "Come on in." Ling Junze walked over with an examination report in his hand, "You have a look. We''ll discuss it when Georgees tomorrow." Li Han only nced at a few numbers that he knew about and the frowned. After a long while, he nodded and said, "Okay, I see. If there''s anything I can do to help, just tell me." "There''s a single room next door. It''s new. You can go rest and take a shower there if you stay here." Ling Junze handed the key to him, "By the way, Shu Tian asked me about the medical expenses. I told her it was charged to your ount. Don''t make a slip of tongue." Li Han paused as he put the key into his pocket, "Did she say anything else?" Ling Junze recalled their conversation today and found nothing unusual, "No, nothing else, she just nodded." Li Han replied, "Okay." [...] When Shu Tian returned to the ward, Ye Lihua was secretly wiping her tears with a tissue. She looked at her mother, who was already past fifty sitting by the bed and felt especially upset. Their peaceful life had been disturbed by Tang Zechen before. This time her father got so angry because of Jiang Chujing and was sent to the hospital directly. Shu Tian felt that it was all because of herself. She thought that she was too willful and unfilial. If she could have been practically doing things, even if she was alone, there would not have been so many twists and turns. She owed her family too much. Thinking of this, the tears that had just been held back almost fell again. Shu Tian quickly choked back the tears, afraid that Ye Lihua would be even sadder if she saw the tears. She pushed the door open and went in. The room was filled with the sound of medical instruments. "Mom, you go rest for a while. I''ll stay here." Shu Tian patted Ye Lihua on the shoulder and choked with sobs. Ye Lihua grabbed her hand and sobbed, "Tian, our family had never gone beyond moral bounds. What did we do to have such punishment..." Shu Tian felt bitter and bordered on crying. She also wanted to know what they had done to suffer from this, weren''t they good enough? Shu Tian suppressed the emotions, "Mom, I''m sorry for you and dad. When dad gets better, I''ll move out of there. I''ll listen to you, okay?" Ye Lihua also saw what Li Han had done. A few hours had passed and it was the most dangerous time for Shu Tian''s father. However, Mr. Li did not evene here to have a look, Ye Lihua felt disappointed in him. "Okay, you go home with us. You have a home." Shu Tian clenched her hands and closed her eyes slowly, "Okay, I''ll go home." "Mom and dad never wanted you to marry someone who was rich and had good conditions. Such a rich family is way out of our league. These people have seen and possessed too much and don''t know how to cherish it. In the end, you will suffer." Ye Lihua changed her good opinion of Li Han. Shu Tian wished she could p herself when hearing her mother''s words and regretted that she had never seen that man clearly after being together with him for so long. He was too shrewd and sophisticated, but Shu Tian naively thought that his tactics would never be used on her. Now, she realized that she was wrong. Where was his love, and who was his only one? Shu Tian bit her lip to stop the choking sound that was about to spill out of her mouth. From beginning to end, Jiang Chujing was the only one that Li Han had loved. Chapter 219 Chapter 219 It was noon of the next day when George and the medical team arrived at the hospital. When a number of tall foreigners came over, they attracted a lot of attention. Although Ling''s Hospital was the best private hospital in the country and there were foreign doctors, such a professional team was rare. Many doctors and nurses working on the VIP floor couldn''t help but discuss it. This kind of discussion was heard by Tian Sangsang. She knew more or less about Jiang Chujing''s affairs. Could it be that something was wrong again? It was probably problematic that attending doctor from abroade over. Thinking of this, Tian Sangsang could not help but frown. She had not contacted Ling Junze in private since she left the vi in North Visst time. The onlymunication between them was about work, when she applied for a transfer while he approved without much exnation. Even if she wanted to ask now, she couldn''t. "Ah..." Tian Sangsang could not help but sigh, hoping that Shu Tian could endure until Miss Jiang recovered. [...] As George and his people arrived at the ward, they observed Jiang Chujing''s condition. Then they followed Ling Junze into the office and looked through the examination results of the past two days. The more George looked at it, the more serious his face became. In the end, he simply put the report on the table and held his forehead with both hands. "OMG, what exactly happened?" As a doctor who had been treating Jiang Chujing for more than five years, seeing that all his efforts and treatment results were in vain after she fell into the water, he felt that no one could understand the feelings in his heart. George was very confident in his medical skills and in medicine. He wanted to cure her. Besides money, it was more a spiritual pursuit. Now, it seemed impossible. "She has injuries to her windpipe and lungs. These injuries will not heal easily, and her blood indicators are very unstable. If this goes on, I believe that in a short time, she will be in worse condition." George looked at Ling Junze, his face full of anxiety. "Ling, can you tell me what happened?" Ling Junze was a little embarrassed and was thinking about how to exin when he heard Li Han, who had been silent since he entered, say, "ident, falling into the water." Hearing this, Ling Junze was in a daze for a moment, and then a little relieved. No matter what Li Han thought, he was still unconditionally standing on Shu Tian''s side. Although he had doubts in his heart, he would not let others nder her because of suspicion. Would Shu Tian know these? "ident?" George turned his face slightly and looked at Li Han. "What kind of ident is it to be serious?" "She stood by the pool and suddenly fainted and fell in." Li Han''s face was calm and he just spoke very inly. He was not in a panic to lie, nor did he shift his eyes. Although George didn''t believe it all, he would ept it. He was just surprised for a few seconds and said, "She''s a patient. You should take good care of her." Li Han frowned and did not speak. For the first time, this arrogant man yielded to persuasion. "idents are inevitable. It''s useless to talk about it. Let''s discuss the follow-up treatments." Ling Junze broke the awkward silence in time and handed George his proposal from the table. "Take a look." Li Han suddenly got up and said in a deep voice, "You guys talk first. I''ll go out." [...] After leaving the hospital, Li Han went straight to the underground garage on the second floor without any assistant. He got into the car alone, started it, and drove away. The speed of the car was very fast, and the street scene outside the window shed past so blurry that he could not see it clearly. In front of him, he saw a face more and more clearly. It was very familiar but chilling. The car drove at a high speed for nearly an hour before arriving at the gate of the North Vis. He didn''t inform anyone before he came, so when Li Wei saw him, he was surprised. "Mr. Li?" Li Wei looked behind him and saw nothing else. "Why are you here?" Without stopping, Li Han walked to the sofa in the middle of the living room and sat down. He threw the car keys on the table, and his dark eyes fell on Li Wer meaningfully. He didn''t say anything, but the atmosphere was solemn. Li Wei had been with Li Han for so long that he understood his temper. At this moment, he must have lost his temper, but Li Han couldn''t figure out where his anger came from as he entered. Li Han seemed to have understood his expression and raised his thin lips sarcastically. "Tell me, why didn''t you report to me when Jiang Chujing left here and returned to Imperial Vi." As he finished speaking, the confusion in Li Wei''s eyes was reced by panic. In the face of Li Han, no matter how much he tried to conceal something, he could not escape from him. After so many days, he almost forgot. However, the panic quickly turned into calmness. After all, when he first promised Jiang Chujing to do so, he had already thought about what would happen. After two seconds of silence, Li Wei took two steps forward solemnly and stood straight in front of Li Han. He bent down and growled in a rough voice, "I''m sorry Mr. Li." Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Li Han looked at the man''s dark head, frowned and said in a cold voice, "Tell me the reason." Li Wei clenched his teeth and his cheeks bulged out as if it was very difficult to speak. Li Han waited for a while, but there was no answer. His eyes became colder. "Do you know that your behavior almost killed Chujing?" As he spoke, Li Han fixed his eyes on him. Sure enough, as soon as he spoke, Li Wei''s expression immediately tensed up and his tone even trembled. "What? What?!" When Li Han saw his reaction, he knew it. "She went back early that day and fell into the pool by ident. She''s not out of danger yet. This is the consequence of your decision. Can you afford it?" Li Wei could never afford it. Besides, Jiang Chujing was the only woman he loved in his life, and he almost killed her... He recalled the promise Jiang Chujing had given him before she left that day... "Li Wei, don''t worry. I just went back a day earlier to surprise Li Han. Nothing will happen." "Don''t tell him, or he''ll know what I did." "Just help me this time, thest time, okay? I''m begging you. Haven''t you always been nice to me?" These words were still vivid in his mind but in the blink of an eye... Li Wei seemed to be depressed, and he took an unsteady step back. The iron man''s eyes were red at this moment. "Mr. Li, I... Can I go to the hospital to see her..." "Chujing?" Li Han sneered and got up from the sofa. "When did you get so close that you could call each other by nicknames?" Chapter 220 Chapter 220 Li Wei blurted those words out without thinking. Although he had realized how inappropriate it was to call Chujing by her name, it was toote for him to correct it or cover it up. His face went red because of anxiety, anger, or shame after his dirty little secret had been discovered. "Mr. Li, I... I''m so sorry!" Words failed him. He didn''t know what to say except the word "sorry". His heart was tortured by guilt when he thought of Jiang Chujing''s current condition. It was all his fault. It wouldn''t have ended up like this if he hadn''t been so self-righteous. "How is Miss Jiang feeling now? Her condition got worse because of me. I will take my responsibility for this, so let me know if she''s still in danger..." Li Han looked at Li Wei who was standing in front of him. For so many years Li Wei had been working as his subordinate, this was the first time Li Han saw his face registering sorrow. Li Wei was a tough man, but at this moment, he had bloodshot eyes because of anxiety and guilty. Li Han clenched his hands to suppress his anger and asked, "When did you start to have feelings for her?" Knowing that Li Han had guessed out the truth, Li Wei didn''t defend himself with lies. "I started to pay attention to her at the first sight I saw her at the airport when she returned to the country. Then you asked me to stay here and keep an eye on her. That was when I got to know Miss Jiang better and was moved by her warmth and care. Her poor health made me worried. I took care of her, hoping that she would feel better because of me. That feeling changed into love pretty soon." Li Wei felt delighted when he recalled these happy memories between him and Jiang Chujing. Regardless of the result, he had paid efforts for his love. Li Wei added soon, "Don''t me Miss Jiang. This is all my fault, my wishful thinking." Li Han frowned harder at Li Wei''s self-deprecating words. If Li Wei had told him about his feelings before, Li Han wouldn''t stand in his way and might even encourage Li Wei to pursue his own happiness. However, Li Han wouldn''t be tolerant now and could not trust Li Wei who hid things about Jiang Chujing and other things. No matter how much he appreciated Li Wei''s ability, Li Han wouldn''t allow Li Wei to work for him anymore. Sincerity and trust mattered the most when it came to the rtionship between the boss and his subordinate. And Li Wei had just betrayed him. Li Han always drew a clear line between public and private affairs, which was one of the most significant reasons for his achievements today. There was no need to listen to Li Wei''s following exnations. Li Han looked at him with disappointment. "Li Wei, you deserve credit after working for me for many years, but still, I''ll fire you for your severe mistake this time that crossed the line. I''ll give you a severance. As for the termination contract, thewyer will contact you when it''s ready." Li Wei was frozen in shock not because he felt humiliated by the money or being fired. Instead, his heart was filled with a strong reluctance. Ever since the day when Li Han saved him, Li Wei had made up his mind to work himself to the bone for Li Han for the rest of his life and expected this oue. However, Li Wei didn''t have the right to beg Li Han to let him stay, no matter how reluctant Li Wei was. One who failed in his duty couldn''t defend himself. Li Han had no pleasure in seeing Li Wei in a wreck. After all, Li Wei had been his subordinate for many years and then turned around to leave. Bang! Li Wei stopped him by kneeling on the ground. "Mr. Li! This is myst request..." Li Wei clenched his fists with all his strength that his arms were slightly trembling. "Can I see Miss Jiang for thest time? I caused this ident and I''m really worried..." "No," Li Han refused decisively. "This woman has nothing to do with you. Whether she''s feeling well or bad is none of your business." These words sounded heartless but Li Han was actuallyforting Li Wei. On one hand, he hoped Li Wei would give up his love for Jiang Chujing as soon as possible. On the other hand, by pointing out what happened to her had nothing to do with Li Wei, he wished Li Wei could stop ming himself for everything. No one could stop an ident from happening. However, human error could and should be avoided. Li Wei had failed in his duty, but he shouldn''t be med for the drowning. Li Wei was desperate as hisst hope was dished by Li Han''s words. It would be more difficult for Li Wei to see Jiang Chujing after being fired. Maybe Li Wei wouldn''t be able to talk to her again for the rest of his life. This thought plunged Li Wei into sadness. The pain somehow gave him the courage to say the things he had always wanted to say. "Mr. Li, I know it''s inappropriate for me to say this considering my identity and position. However, I still want to tell you this. During the time I spent with Miss Jiang, I could see how much she likes you. She cares and loves you with her heart." Li Han''s face darkened at these words. He turned around, looking at Li Wei. "What do you want to say?" Li Wei was still kneeling on the ground with his fists clenched and his arms hanging straight beside him. His veins were bulging on his forehead due to the strong emotions in his heart. "I wonder if you understand Miss Jiang''s feeling for you. She doesn''t love you in the way a sister loves her brother but a woman loves a man. Mr. Li, please face this feeling frankly, treat her better, and take good care of her if you feel the same way for her. If not, tell her to give up this fantasy as soon as possible. You will hurt her even more if she falls any deeper." The vi was so empty with only the two of them in it that Li Wei''s voice even echoed in the hall. Instead of saying anything in reply, Li Han stared at Li Wei for a long time. Li Hanughed after a long time and said solemnly. "Do you think I''m stalling? What do you know about her and me? How dare you make such a conclusion?" Li Han emphasized each word, which was his way of venting anger. Obviously, what Li Wei had said had irritated him. Li Han walked over and squatted down to look Li Wei so furiously that Li Wei could not look at him." Do you think I don''t know it and don''t want to refuse her? She''s in poor health now. Who will take the responsibility if her condition turns worse due to sadness after I refuse her? You? Li Wei, you''ve been working for me for so many years. I really thought you understood me. Now it seems I''mpletely wrong." There was obvious disappointment in these words. Stunned, Li Wei paused. "I''ve already found the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with. Do you think I enjoy dealing with two women at the same time? Seeing the woman I love suffer because of me made me want to kill myself! It''s the responsibility I have to take that makes my life this hard. What do you know?" Li Han Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. said full of anger. He felt aggrieved for himself probably because he was about to lose control of his emotions. Shu Tian did not understand him. Ling Junze bothered him with those suggestions from time to time. Even Li Wei criticized him. The saying said one shouldn''t be greedy and wish everything to go his way. Li Han had never expected everyone around to understand him, but it still hurt his feelings when he realized that none of them ever did. Who could understand the hardship he had been going through? Chapter 221 Chapter 221 After the ident, Shu Tian took a long leave of absence, and she had another n for future work. Although there was only one floor''s distance from Li Han, they did not meet again. It was not until the day Shu Changlei was pushed into the operating room that the man came. The tall figure was against the light at the end of the corridor, extremely oppressing. He nced at Shu Tian and Ye Lihua sitting on the bench. Instead of walking over immediately, hemunicated with the medical staff beside him. "The patient was in a good situation before entering the operating room. There should be no problem. The chief doctor is also the best. Mr. Li, you can rx." The charge nurse relieved him knowing that this man had an extraordinary status, Director Ling''s best friend, so she did not dare to neglect him. Li Han was relieved to hear this, but he couldn''t help but look at the woman on the side. It had been nearly half a month since they had quarreledst time. He knew that she didn''t want to see him. If the problem between him and Jiang Chujing couldn''t be solved for a day, she wouldn''t let it go. And he was not satisfied with her totally. No matter how angry she was, she should not push Jiang Chujing down. This was a matter of principle not only the matter of emotion. So he didn''te to see her and let them both calm down, but he secretly inquired a lot about her. Ling Junze said that he was troubling himself, but he could only smile bitterly without saying anything. She hunched over looking down at the ground, her palm-sized face getting sharper. She was so thin that her cheek was also skinny. He was no longer angry, but heartbroken. That sour feeling burned in his heart as if his whole body and limbs seem to be soaked in water. After thinking for a moment, he was unable to fight against his inner thoughts and walked towards her. Shu Tian knew that he wasing over, but she didn''t look up at him. She didn''t want to see him at all. Instead, Ye Lihua reacted and sat up straight first, looking at the extraordinary man standing in front of her without servile nor arrogant. "Mr. Li." Although Ye Lihua called out coldly with a moderate voice, her words very resounding. Li Han lowered his eyelids slightly, and his eyshes cast a ck shadow. He said with difficulty, "Uncle is in a stable condition. Don''t worry. I think it will be done in a while." Ye Lihua breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but herplexion was still cold. Her daughter and her husband had suffered so much, so she could not be as kind to him as before. "Thank you for your concern, Mr. Li." Ye Lihua thanked him and then said, "Everyone goes through life and death. We know what''s going on with him. Mr. Li, you don''t need not worry." She treated Li Han as a stranger in one sentence. How could Li Han not understand? However, he was not in a hurry to refute but turned to Shu Tian, who had not spoken in the same position since he had been here. With her hands on herps clenching tightly, obviously, she was refrained from being angry with him. Li Han tried to call her name several times, but his words seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he couldn''t say them out. After several times, he finally gave up. Well, the closer he was, the more she hated him. It''s better to do something after Shu Changlei''s recovery. The man put his hands into his pockets and clenched them tightly in secret. The uneasiness in his heart was carefully hidden by him. He looked up and looked indifferent again. "The hospital is not like home. You can tell me without burden if you need anything." Ye Lihua was astonished. If nothing had happened, she would have thought that Li Han was a good man for marriage, but now... She smiled politely and distantly. "We appreciate your kindness. But we can''t afford it as themon people." Li Han was not angry either. He said "This is what I should do" before leaving. When the tall figure disappeared at the end of the corridor, Ye Lihua breathed a sigh of relief. Although she was an elder person, she was really nervous and depressed in front of Li Han. She turned to Shu Tian. Before she spoke, she saw the tears in Shu Tian''s eyes. She couldn''t say anything suddenly just holding her hand and her eyes turned red too. She sighed, "What a sin..." [...] The operationsted more than four hours. When Shu Changlei was wheeled out, Shu Tian was almost stiff. After the red light on the wall off, she rushed to the door. When she saw the pale face of Shu Changlei, she asked nervously, "Director Zhang, how is my father?" "The operation was very sessful, and the patient was fine. He will regain consciousness tonight or tomorrow morning. The nurse will inform you of the following notice." After more than four hours of surgery, the doctor was also very tired, but he still patientlyforted Shu Tian. Only then was Shu Tian rxed and thanked him repeatedly. After sending the doctor away, she looked at Shu Changlei, who was lying in the VIP ward. She finally rxed after more than half a month. She didn''t know if it was because she was too emotional. She suddenly felt dizzy and fell back unsteadily. At this moment, she was supported by a pair of hands behind her at that moment. It was Tian Sangsang when she turned around. "Are you okay?" The woman''s mild and fair face came into her eyes. She didn''t know if it was because she was a doctor, her voice was also gentle and moving. Shu Tian hid the hope in her eyes and quickly stood up. "It''s okay. Thank you." Tian Sangsang saw her disappointment at that moment and knew what she was looking forward to something. In fact, women were the same. Their words were cold with reluctant but they still need that person in an ident. "You don''t look well. Have you been too tired to look after your fathertely?" Shu Tian said, shaking her head, "It''s okay." She was upset totally and could not feel tired. For her, the more tired she was, the better it was. In this way, she would not be bothered by other emotions. Shu Changlei''s illness had be a thorn in her heart. The problems that she had ignored in the past came back to her and enlightened her that as long as Jiang Chujing was with Li Han. If so, they would not have any peaceful days. Worse still, the man chose to believe her. Thinking of this, Shu Tian sneered and curled her lips. Tian Sangsang nced into the ward and then at the woman in front of her. She remembered that she was envious of Li Han''s romantic confession not long ago. She did not expect that everything would change. She could not interfere in others'' affairs, so she only said with concern "I''ll give you a nutrient injection. I''m afraid your body won''t be able to handle it." "It''s okay. You don''t have to do so. I can hold on." Shu Tian smiled at her, but the smile was especially weak. "I''m relieved after my father''s surgery." Seeing that she insisted, Tian Sangsang couldn''t force her anymore. After a small talk, she let her into the ward. Looking at Shu Tian''s overburdened back, shouldering too much for her skinny figure, as a woman, she was sympathetic to her, and she did not know Li Han''s thoughts. Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. They loved each other, but they were always separated because of idents. From a bystander''s point of view, she was also suffering. Tian Sangsang shook her head helplessly. When she turned around and was about to leave, she almost bumped into a white "wall." Startled, she retreated in a low voice and almost bumped into the door of the ward behind her. She was grabbed by the man and heard a gentle voice from above. "Be careful." Chapter 222 Chapter 222 This voice... Tian Sangsang looked up and was slightly surprised when she saw that handsome face. Why was he here? On second thought, as Li Han''s girlfriend, Shu Tian''s father was in the hospital now. It was inevitable that he woulde here to take a look after the operation. It was a coincidence that the two of them would meet here. Ever since they quarreled in North Visst time, Tian Sangsang hadn''t seen him for a long time. At this moment, when she felt the palm on her back, she found her mouth dry for no reason. Ling Junze saw there was a surprised look in her eyes and realized that his actions were too intimate. He moved his palm away quietly. Although he could feel his heart pounding, his face was still serious. He recovered hisposure in order not to look too strange, but before he could speak, the woman in front of him was ready to walk away. A look of displeasure shed across his face. He frowned deeply, grabbed her wrist rudely, and pulled her back to where she was. Then he asked, "Did I let you go?" Tian Sangsang tried her best to pull her arm back. However, no matter how hard she tried, she could not break free from him. His hands were like chains that locked her tightly. "Director Ling, what are you doing?" Her voice trembled because of anger. After hearing her words, Ling Junze calmed down. He looked into her big eyes, which were full of emotions, and sneered sarcastically, "It''s normal for me to discipline my employees. What do you think I am doing, huh? Or from your perspective, you think I pulled you out of personal reasons?" Tian Sangsang did think so, so when Ling Junze said that, her fair face immediately turned red. She red at the person in front of her in embarrassment and annoyance. Thinking of his merciless criticism that day, she couldn''t help but reply, "I don''t know why you need an unprofessional doctor!" At the end of the day, this was what hurt her the most. Ling Junze was only surprised for a moment before he remembered what happened that day. He narrowed his eyes. For the first time, there was something indefinable in his eyes. Hearing her say this, he was in a better mood. It showed that she cared if she still remembered. She cared about him. Ling Junze''s heart beat wildly. Over the years, he had been indifferent to life and death, let alone the rtionship between men and women. He was a little unfamiliar with this feeling. The next second, when she was unprepared, he suddenly let go of her hand and said, "Come to my office." After that, he walked straight ahead without looking at her. Tian Sangsang stood still, looking angrily at him. The way he swaggered made her unhappy. "If you don''te, you won''t have toe here tomorrow." Tian Sangsang''s eyes widened in disbelief. She never thought that one day Ling Junze would take revenge on her in such a way. She gritted her teeth and, although unwilling, hurried to catch him up. [...] After entering the office, Ling Junze was not in a hurry to sit down. Instead, he stood at the door, waiting for her. As soon as Tian Sangsang walked in, she almost bumped into his chest. They were so close... Tian Sangsang knew that he did it on purpose. Holding back her anger, she said, "Please move, Director Ling." Ling Junze lowered his eyes and gave her a long searching look. Just as Tian Sangsang was about to lose her patience, he slowly moved away, giving her space toe in. However, even if he moved away, they were still very close. When Tian Sangsang walked past him, she inevitably touched his arm. She didn''t even dare to look where she touched and she went into the office with a red face. With a click, the door closed. She had entered this room many times, but now she felt out of herself. Tian Sangsang stood in front of the desk, like a soldier waiting for interrogation. She didn''t even know why she was so nervous. She just felt that she was not herself today, and there was something indefinable going on between the two of them. There was dead silence in the room. Finally, Tian Sangsang could not stand him staring at her. She felt that if she did not say something she would freak out. She asked in a trembling voice, "Director Ling, why do you ask me toe here?" She didn''t expect Ling Junze to go around to the leather swivel chair in front of her and sit down. He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her calmly. "What do you think?" N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. What did she think? What should she say? Tian Sangsang took a deep breath and tried to remain calm. "Director Ling, you asked me toe here, not me. You shouldn''t have asked me that, should you?" She was quite used to calling him Director Ling but Ling Junze found it sharp. He always felt that she was deliberately drawing a clear line with him. Ling Junzeughed, and his smile made her heart miss a beat. Although he was sitting, he still looked so imposing. "I heard you were asking questions about me recently?" When he finished speaking, Tian Sangsang was in a daze. She did ask around recently, but it was for Jiang Chujing and Shu Tian. She was very worried, and she didn''t want to ask Shu Tian directly because that might make her feel bad, so she asked others. But how could he know... "You want to know how did I know?" Ling Junze knew what she was thinking at a nce, and there was a teasing look in his eyes. "This is my hospital." In other words, there were a lot of people who would tell him everything if he wanted to know. Tian Sangsang had the illusion that his eyes seemed to bore a hole in hers. She wanted to exin, but she hesitated for a long time, not knowing where to start. She blushed anxiously. "Tian Sangsang, why did you ask around about me?" However, Ling Junze didn''t want to let her got. He deliberately asked her over and over again, as if he had to find out something. "I... I..." Tian Sangsang bit her lip but soon let go. "I didn''t mean to. I just want to know what happened to Shu Tian." "So you asked about me?"Ling Junze stood up and walked to her. "Do you know you''re interfering in your leader''s private affairs?" Tian Sangsang knew she was in the wrong and could not speak. She allowed him to interrogate her. Thinking of how she subconsciously paid attention to him these days, she couldn''t suppress the emotions that had been buried in her heart for such a long time. She was on the verge of tears as those emotions broke her heart, but she still apologized, although insincerely, "I''m sorry, I won''t do it again." After saying this, she didn''t want to stay here for another second and turned to walk towards the door, regardless of Ling Junze''s reaction. Ling Junze was almost dumbfounded. He saw her cry the moment she turned around. How could he let her go? He took two steps forward and grabbed her wrist. The ease in his voice was gone, reced by imperceptible anxiety. "If you only run away after you do something wrong, when can you face the music?" "I can''t face it." Tian Sangsang turned her back to him so that she wouldn''t see his probing eyes again. She finally dared to talk to him head on. "You''re my senior, my leader. If you have any problem with me, I can''t do anything." She retorted angrily, her tone full of dissatisfaction. Ling Junze raised his eyebrows and he turned her to him. Looking at her red eyes, he pulled her closer into his arms. "Can''t you face it?" Ling Junze raised her chin and kissed her pink lips. "I''ll help you." Chapter 223 Chapter 223 Shu Changlei''s condition was getting better. A week after the operation, the tube could be removed from his body. Then, he could sit up straight and walk with others'' help, which finallyforted Ye Lihua''s anxious heart. Shu Tian hired a nurse to help so that she only needed to keep him apanied. After all, as Ye Lihua was getting older, she had not enough energy to look after him by herself. With the help of the nurse, she was not as tired as before. Li Han visited here from time to time to bring some daily necessities and remind the medical staff to provide more help. Li Han still cared about Shu Tian, while Shu Tian was no longer moved by him. From her perspective, everything Li Han did now was to help Jiang Chujing. Shu Tian could never forget nor forgive what had happened between them. By ident, she caught a cold. Staying there for more than ten days, she was inevitably infected with the flu. Afraid that it would affect Shu Changlei, she didn''t go to the hospital. Shu Tian went to the bank to withdraw some of the divorcepensation from Tang Zechen, so that she could pay the cost of the operation. After that, she took a taxi to the HY Law Office. She didn''t inform anyone before she came, so Wei Xiangming felt astonished when seeing Shu Tian standing in the office with her resignation application. "What are you doing..." Shu Tian put the application on the desk and said in a hoarse voice, "I''m sorry, Ms. Wei. I''ve let you down. I was in a series of troubles recently. I once thought I could make through, but now it seems..." At this point, she paused and teased herself, "I''ve failed to make it." Wei Xiangming looked at the signature on the resignation application but didn''t take it, "Shu Tian, I know your father''s health problems. I can give you a leave to take care of your family. Do not resign impulsively. You have excellent capabilities. It will be a pity to give up your job." Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Shu Tian lowered her eyelids while her hands entangled with each other tightly. Suppressing the impulse, she said in a deep voice, "Ms. Wei, I''m sorry." Wei Xiangming sighed, "Shu Tian, you haven''t finished your leave yet. Think about it for a few more days. I won''t urge you." "No, thanks. I''ve made up my mind." Wei Xiangming looked a little embarrassed, "As you know, the resignation approval has to be reported to the superiors. As for your rtionship Mr. Li, I can''t..." "I see." Shu Tian helped her finish the sentence, "You can just tell him." Wei Xiangming felt surprised. She had a hunch that there was something wrong between them. She appreciated Shu Tian, so she tried to persuade. However, seeing Shu Tian leave determinedly, she had no choice but to call Li Han. [...] Li Han nned to talk to Shu Tian after Shu Changlei could be discharged. ording to the report of the doctor, Shu Changlei still needed a few days to recover. However, before Shu Changlei could recover, Shu Tian had decided to resign. When he heard the news, he was on his way from the hospital to thepany. Then, he immediately changed the destination, heading for the Imperial Vi. He was afraid that something would happen if he didn''t catch up with Shu Tian. He drove at awful speed and even broke the traffic rules. In the end, she arrived earlier than Shu Tian, who had set off earlier. He sat in the car without moving. Then, Shu Tian walked out of the vi step by step with a calm expression. Her calmness brought him a keen sense of fear. Li Han put out the cigarette at his fingertips and opened the car door. Though the cold wind blew violently, he didn''t feel chilly with only a thin shirt and suit jacket. He kept walking towards Shu Tian. Obviously, Shu Tian also noticed his approach, but she did not give any reaction and kept her pace. Li Han grabbed her in a repressed rage when she was opening the door. To talk in calmness or not would be decided at this moment. Both of them were in bad mood, while Li Han felt worse. Looking at the palm on her wrist and feeling the temperature of his body, she felt her heart missed a beat. However, she repressed her emotions, "Don''t touch me." She didn''t want him to touch her. The approach of him reminded her of his leaving with Jiang Chujing. Everything treasurable got ruined by the pool on that day. "You want to resign?" The rise and fall of his chest revealed his bad mood, "I''ve told you. Without my permission, you cannot leave." "Yes, you''ve told me." Shu Tian quickly answered him. After the response, she looked up at him sarcastically, as if she were appreciating a joke, "Do you think you can tie me up with this? Don''t be naive. Now, I won''t follow anymore." So even if she had to break her head and bend her body, she chose to leave. She wanted to leave at any cost. Li Han could see the tease in her eyes. He felt as if his heart was stabbed by a sharp knife, which caused the bleeding of all his organs. He felt he had been losing something treasurable. He clenched his fists and repressed his roaring and mixed feelings, "Let''s have a talk." He repeated, "Shu Tian, let''s have a talk." "Talk about what?" Her eyes were wet, "About how I pushed Jiang Chujing down, or about how she made my father sick, or about this weird rtionship between the three of us?" Li Han was speechless. "Li Han, don''t be ridiculous. I really can''t stand it now. It''s all my fault, okay? It''s me who broke your rtionship. It''s me who shouldn''t be by your side. So let me leave to end everything, okay?" Shu Tian couldn''t hold back anymore. Tears rolled down from her eyes and finally streaked her face. The sound of sobbing came from the depths of her throat, which sounded like a desperate howl from her bones. Her words were imprinted on his heart, while his heart was clutched by her cry. She wanted to leave. How could she leave? She was already a part of him. If she left, he would not be a whole person anymore. So, no. He would not let her go as long as he was alive. He wiped away the tears on her face. His movements were a little heavy which made her skin red, while his voice was very soft, "Tian, as long as you don''t leave, I will promise you anything." Shu Tian didn''t hesitate for a second, "No." If she had heard this before, she would have been definitely moved. But now, it made her feel disgusting. She was really scared. She really wanted to end this rtionship, at least now. Because every time she closed her eyes, she would see the fall of Shu Changlei, the scene of Ye Lihua''s cry, the sneer of Jiang Chujing, and the Li Han''s distrust in her. These dark clouds would not be melted easily. Her answer broke thest tenderness of Li Han and caused the fierce storm in his heart. Li Han raised up the corner of his lips and gave her a creepy smile, "Want to leave me? You don''t have the ability!" Before Shu Tian realized the meaning of his words, he had already dragged her into the room. Nanny Li had already heard the noise at the door but did not dare to interfere. Seeing that Mr. Li was so irritated, afraid that Shu Tian would be hurt, she stepped forward and tried to mediate the situation. However, Li Han''s cold eyes stopped her, "Get out!" Shu Tian was afraid that Nanny Li would be hurt too, so she shook her head with tears, "Nanny Li, don''t worry..." Chapter 224 Chapter 224 Nanny Li had been here for a long time. It was the first time she had seen Li Han being so angry. She was a little scared for a moment. "Sir¡­¡­ sir..." Obviously, Li Han had no patience for her and he didn''t care how she would think of him. He took Shu N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. Tian straight into the bedroom. The door mmed shut, and the loud noise also reflected the fact of how furious he was. When the door closed, there were only two people. When Shu Tian went upstairs, she identally sprained her foot. Her face was even paler because of the pain, but she did not say anything. She stood in front of him and refused to give in. That was the attitude thatpletely irritated Li Han. "I''ll give you another chance to take back what you just said." The man''s look were filled with terrifying anger. Shu Tian knew that he was on the verge of losing his temper, but she refused to give in. "Li Han, I want to leave you. I want to stay away from everything about you." He could ept everything except her leaving. This was Li Han''s Achilles heel. Now, as she spoke, he finally broke down. "If you want to leave, don''t make excuses. There''s nothing between Chujing and I . Do you want to leave? Okay, serve me well and I''ll let you go!" Shu Tian''s heart thumped hard when she saw him unbuttoning his shirt. She took a step back and pursed her lips. "Li Han, don''t be shameless." He smiled and kept moving. "I''ve been shameless to you more than once, so it would be okay if I did one more time." Soon, his clothes were thrown on the carpet in the bedroom. The man''s strong upper body was exposed in the air. The belt around his waist was untied and hung in a casual way, as if it would fall on the ground soon. Shu Tian watched as he approached her step by step. She felt so ufortable, which made her behave ordingly. He tried to get closer to her while she tended to withdraw. And there would be always a distance between them. Somehow he was annoyed by her resistance. Finally, when her back was against the wall, the man reached out and pulled her into his arms. Then, Shu Tian was held down into the soft bed. "Li Han, let me go!" Her cheeks brushed against his chest, and the temperature on it was frighteningly hot. Realizing that he was being serious, she felt terrified. Let me go! She kept saying that, which hurt him deeply. "I told you, it''s impossible." Shu Tian didn''t expect him to say that. For a moment, she was speechless and embarrassed. She looked at him in disbelief. He had always been calm andposed, and there was even a hint of inhumane determination in his character. But now, he was so out of control. Because she wanted to leave. He lost his control and started to do and say something in apletely different way. With such thoughts, Shu Tian somehow felt better. At least, she had meant something to him. He loved her, but the person he valued the most was Jiang Chujing. As long as she thought of this, no matter how much she was reluctant to part with him, Shu Tian did not dare to change her decision. Perhaps, if she was the only one who had been wronged this time, and Shu Changlei was not in trouble, she would still make apromise. It was better to break up with him now than be heartbroken in the future. Shu Tian closed her eyes and tears fell. The next moment, his lips were pressed against hers. He swallowed the bitter tears as if this would make each other feel better. Li Han had never felt so powerless. They were doing the most intimate thing, but, in fact, they were so alienated from each other. The woman below him stopped struggling, even though she was unwilling to do that. In the end, Shu Tian only felt waves of heat in her body. In fact, she was very ufortable. She might have a fever. In a daze, she whined, "Li Han, please don''t. I feel so bad..." "Rx, baby." The man did not realize what was wrong with her. He only said such a sentence and devoted himself to it. It was not until he felt the woman''s body was abnormal hot that he realized something was wrong. The moment he reached out to her forehead, he suddenly frowned. He was unable to remain calm feeling the temperature. "Shu Tian? Shu Tian..." Chapter 225 Chapter 225 "Mr. Li, Miss Shu is fine. She has a high fever due to excessive fatigue and inmmation of his throat. It''s 39.20 degrees. She has been put on a drip. When she wakes up, have a light diet and rest for two days." The family doctor whispered beside Li Han. The doctor looked at the handsome man standing in front of him with a gloomy expression. He could feel the oppression and arrogance of that man. One absolutely did not dare to go up and talk to him when he stood there quietly. However, his face was so gorgeous that people couldn''t help but nce at him. The doctor cast his eyes slightly. It was difficult to imagine how Li Han created the bruises on that girl . Li Han stared at the fragile figure on the bed. "When will the fever go down?" "Well... Maybe tonight. If she keeps a low fever, give her the medicine I prescribed. She should be fine Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. under 38.5 degrees." "Okay, thank you." After Li Han finished speaking, he nced at Nanny Li and let her send him away. Nanny Li understood and made a gesture. "Doctor Bai, This way." They went downstairs. The corridor on the second floor was quiet again. Li Han stood alone for a while as if thinking about something. A few secondster, he entered the room and closed the door. He walked towards the bed with his shapely legs. The closer he got, the more he couldn''t bear to see her face. There was a flush because of her high fever. There was a lot of sweat on her cheeks, especially her temples. Her hair was wet and stayed down to the sides of her face. She slightly frowned even in her sleep. It was not difficult to see she was shocked by what happened just now. She had been by Shu Changlei''s side for the past few days. She couldn''t eat or sleep well, and she was exhausted. So, she couldn''t bear to sleep with himst night. Li Han casually sit by the bed and gently stroked her delicate face. Suddenly, he heard what she had just said- "Li Han, don''t. I''m not feeling well... " She said weakly with a sad look. He was such a jerk that he didn''t care about her feelings. Looking at the little face, Li Han stood up and left for a while. He came back with a wet handkerchief. This was the first time he took care of someone. He shook the handkerchief a few minutes before he found the right ce to start. He slowly wiped the sweat off her forehead. The handkerchief was cold. Shu Tian frowned severely and mumbled something. Li Han couldn''t hear her clearly and came closer. "What did you say?" "Don''t touch me..." Her lips were a little dry due to the high fever. She murmured unconsciously. Li Han bent down and froze. He rolled his eyes slightly and saw the dark and red bruises on her skin... It was all his fault. It was toote to regret it. Did she care if he made up for it... He clenched the handkerchief tightly. The tough man began to panic. When she woke up, she must hate him even more. He opened and shut his mouth, trying to make an apology. Even though he knew she couldn''t hear, he still stubbornly whispered in her ear, "I''m sorry, Tian..." The sleeping woman did not respond. He had half the responsibility for her high fever of 39.2 degrees. After Nanny Li sent the family doctor away, she went upstairs with the medicine and wanted to put it aside. She knocked on the door and got permission to enter. As soon as she turned around, she saw Mr. Li sitting by the bed and taking care of Miss Shu. She was confused when thinking of the fierce look of Mr. Li tugging Miss Shu when he came back today. He lookedpletely different. Just now, Mr. Li was so scary, but now he was so gentle. Unfortunately, Miss Shu could not see this tenderness. What for? Nanny Li sighed. She didn''t want to disturb the peace. She put the medicine on the table and left. The man sitting by the bed did not move, as if he did not notice anything behind him. He just looked at the woman on the bed attentively and took care of her. [...] Shu Tian woke up with a sore throat. There was a dry pain in her throat, and her breath was heavy. Every breath made her feel especially difficult. Her eyes opened and she saw the familiar ceiling. At first, her eyes were a little blurry, but after a while, she gradually saw it clearly. Looking down, she was covered in afortable silk quilt. The temperature in the room was just right, which reminded her of what had happened before. The unendurable scene shed in her mind, and the light in her eyes dimmed not only because of the unbearable situation just now but also because of the man who came into her sight. Li Han had always been by her side. He had gone downstairs to ask Nanny Li to make some light tonic soup, but she woke up just as he left. She looked listless. He walked towards her quickly. He reached out and touched her forehead to test her body temperature, but she turned her head quickly as soon as he reached out. His palm froze, neither rising nor falling. It was so awkward. After a while, Li Han lowered his hand and asked her, "Are you dizzy? I''ll take your temperatureter." As he spoke, he had already taken the electronic thermometer from the medicine box and ced it by her hand. Shu Tian understood what he meant. Her pale lips were slightly pursed. She obediently tried it in her ear. It was 37.2 degrees. She was almost recovered. She calmed down and began to care about other things. Li Han walked to the bed and looked at the white medical tape on the back of her hand. He was still guilty. "Are you hungry? I¡¯ll call Aunt Li to bring the food upstairs, or do you want to go downstairs to eat?" "No." Shu Tian was startled by her hoarse voice as soon as she said a word. She frowned and was about to cough. She saw a cup of steaming water carried by beautiful fingers. She knew it was Li Han. Shu Tian''s heart pounded uncontrobly. She was not moved, but nervous. His approach would make her nervous. Instead of picking up the ss of water, she lifted the quilt to avoid him. Just moving one step, she was grabbed by him. His low voice came in her ear. "Shu Tian, don''t be silly." Silly? Her lips twitched and she felt helpless. "You... Let me go." She didn''t turn around, nor did she look back, as if it was a waste of energy to take a second look. Li Han stared at the woman for a moment. He clenched his teeth, let go of her hand and said, "I apologize." Shu Tian froze and did not speak. Li Han said slowly, "When you said you were leaving, I was so angry that I lost my head. I didn''t know what to do. I didn''t know you were having a fever, so..." "You don''t know?" Shu Tian interrupted, "If I didn''t have a fever, were you going to kill me?" "Shu Tian!" Her harsh words made Li Han frown. "That''s not what I meant." Chapter 226 Chapter 226 "It doesn''t matter whether you mean that or not, because you''ve done so." Shu Tian never thought that one day she would be so resistant to Li Han that she didn''t want to hear his voice. He had caused her so much pain that he almost lost her love. She did not know how long she could hold on. Li Han didn''t want to argue with her and knew that neither of them was in a stable mood. After calming down, he said, "Go downstairs and eat first. You are having a low fever. The doctor said you can''t have medicine on an empty stomach." Shu Tian took a deep breath. "I want to go home." She wanted to go home where Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei lived. Li Han frowned and was worried about her. "How can you go home like this?" "Take a cab." Shu Tian didn''t want to say a word more and was impatient. "Shu Tian." He said in a low and deep voice and refrained his anger. "Stay here tonight. I''ll drive you home tomorrow morning." Both of them were enduring each other. Shu Tian felt funny when hearing his words and did not know what Li Han was insistent on. They have had such a terrible quarrel. What couldn''t he give up? Could it be that he really loved her? Shu Tian could not ept his love when there was Jiang Chujing. "You said you wanted to talk." Shu Tian turned around and looked at him. Li Han''s eyes darkened. "Yes." "Okay, I''ll talk to you." Shu Tian walked straight to the study regardless of his reaction. Together with her thin back, it was her indifferent voice, "Come with me." Li Han frowned and felt uneasy thinking of what she might sayter. However, he could not stop it. Sooner orter, this negotiation woulde. The longer it took, the more she would hate him. Li Han lowered his eyes. After standing there for a long time, he walked over steadily and imperceptibly anxiously. ... The window of the study was open. A gust of wind brought the cold ofte winter, blowing up the dark gray gauze curtain. Simply looking around, Shu Tian bordered on crying. It was not that she was sentimental, but that they had too many memories here, and now, it seemed that they were going to say goodbye. Not long after, a methodical sound of footsteps came from behind her. She knew it was him. Shu Tian blinked faster and faster to prevent the tears from falling, not wanting to lose herposure. The door closed with a click. Just now, she felt that it was too cold to open the window, but now she was d that there was a window or she would be out of breath. Li Han walked to the swivel chair behind the desk and sat down, as he had done countless times when he was alone. He calmly said. "Go ahead." Shu Tian soon returned to calm. She thought for a moment, trying to sort out what she wanted to say, but her mind was a mess. Unable to articte, she could only say what came to her mind. "Li Han, it''s been more than half a year since we met. It wasn''t an impulse that I handed in my resignation to the Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. They just had a great time, but now they were like strangers on the verge of parting. Li Han narrowed his eyes a little and let her continue. "For the past six months, I have been sincere to you, and so have you. I know, and I can feel it, but Jiang Chujing made me understand that love is not enough. There are too many difficulties between us that we can''t ovee, which made me depressed. Such as your family''s prejudice against me and your responsibility for Jiang Chujing. I thought I could stand it, but I found myself not as strong as I thought." At this point, sheughed self-deprecatingly. The scene of that day''s confrontation with Jiang Chujing at the door shed past her mind. "The moment my father fell, I hated you." Hate. The word sounded frightening. Li Han looked at those familiar eyes. Her eyes were no longer clear, but burning with anger. She looked back and said slowly stressing each syble, "I hate Jiang Chujing, and I hate you." She hated everything that caused Shu Changlei''s illness. She hated Li Han''s distrust and his hindsight. Her grievance and forbearance were nothing, but she loved her family. She could not stand anyone doing anything to hurt her family. Li Han just looked at her and listened to his beloved woman say that she hated him. No one knew what he was thinking. He was in a mess and felt heartbroken. "I know you hate me." He opened the drawer to get the cigarette. Remembering her fever, he withdrew his hand and tapped the table with his fingers. "I was wrong with this. I promise I won''t do it again. It was unexpected that Chujing came back that day. Li Wei didn''t report it. I''ve fired him. You know what happenedter. When I arrived, it was toote and I felt guilty. she fell into the water and her life was in danger. I can''t dy it and I didn''t mean to ignore you. It''s chilling for you to do so." Shu Tian admitted that she pushed Jiang Chujing into the water, so Li Han somehow had a problem with her. No one would know if she didn''t exin, so Li Han''s misunderstanding was reasonable. Obviously an exnation would clear up the misunderstanding, why didn''t she say so? Because apart from the truth, Shu Tian cared more about his attitude and wanted to see whether Li Han would believe her without any basis. As it turned out, he wouldn''t. She thought there was no need to exin and it was more heartbreaking to say more. Shu Tian tried to look rational and cool. "Now that this had happened, I can''t pretend that nothing happened, and I can''t be in the same room with Jiang Chujing. Let''s break up. No woman can ept it. My parents are right and I was the one who didn''t recognize the reality in the past." Now she thought about what had happened before, she felt ridiculous. "I can promise you anything but to leave." "Does that include letting Jiang Chujing leave J City?" Chapter 227 Chapter 227 Their eyes met, and the atmosphere in the study suddenly became tense. Both of them knew what the problem was, but the problem seemed to be a dead end. Shu Tian broke away from such a tense atmosphere first. She looked away and lowered her head to smile. "You can''t do it, can you? I don''t want you to..." N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. "Yes." Li Han interrupted her and then added, "But I''ll get someone to send her back after she recovers." "After she recovers?" Shu Tian shook her head and her voice was very soft as if she were talking to herself. "How could she recover so easily?" If that was the case, Jiang Chujing would also do something to get sick again. "Let''s break up." In the end, she still said this sentence. "It''s not good for you, me, and Jiang Chujing. I don''t have the energy and confidence to continue such a rtionship." She was disappointed with this rtionship. "I told you, it''s impossible to let you go. If you''re determined to leave, you can..." Li Han paused and his thin lips twitched. "Just try and see if you can leave J City." Shu Tian''s heart sank and her eyes widened. "You''re threatening me?!" "I''m not threatening you. I just want to keep you by my side." If there was any way else, he wouldn''t have taken such a method. "Li Han, it will only make me regret meeting you." Every word of hers was a knife that fell on his heart. She didn''t feel it, but he was already numb from the pain. There was a hint of sadness in his deep eyes, and he didn''t want anyone to see it. He pretended to be calm. "Even so, I won''t let you leave, Shu Tian. I told you, I can''t live without you." Hearing that, Shu Tian knew that it would be a waste of effort to continue. She nodded, but there was not much agreement in her expression. "Well, then we will torture each other like this. There will always be a day when you can''t stand it." She would act as an emotionless puppet doll, and she didn''t believe that a proud man like Li Han could stand it. Li Han hated to hear her say such words, but if he really had a choice, even if he tied her up here, he would not agree her to leave. "No way. I promise you that this won''t happen again. It''s impossible for you to leave." Shu Tian was already disgusted by this sentence. She took a step back and distanced him again. "I''ll pay the medical bills, and you don''t have to pay it. I''ve already thought about resignation, so I hope you can approve it as soon as possible." Her attitude was firm. Li Han believed that even if he did not approve, she would not go to thepany again. A conversation ended in nothing. There was not much conversation between the two of them. It was not that they didn''t want to say anything, but that they had nothing to say. Li Han now understood how much she wanted to leave. But it''s futile. He couldn''t stop it, and he could only hope that Jiang Chujing would get better soon. [...] On the contrary, Jiang Chujing had the opposite idea. When she came back from abroad this time, she did not n to leave. Now that such a thing had happened, Li Han would definitely holdints of her even if he did not say it, so she had to speed up her n. Fortunately, when she was recuperating in the hospital, she heard from Jiang Mengyao that Zhang Lancheng was in danger. Although Zhang Lancheng had been in a state of brain death before, she had recently suffered from cerebral hemorrhage and atrophy. The hospital was ready to inform her family. "Li Han will know the news soon. What are you going to do?" Jiang Mengyao''s low voice came from the phone. The hospital was not like home. Jiang Chujing was very careful to make sure that no one was eavesdropping and then she spoke. "Keep it quiet and keep your eyes on him. Let me know when Li Han makes a move." "Am I going to wait again?" "There''s something wrong here. I''m in the hospital now, but although it was an ident, it''s rtively better for our situation. Shu Tian is almost unbearable now." Jiang Chujing reassured her. "You don''t have to worry. I have a n. Just do as I say." "This is the hospital and there are so many people here. It''s inconvenient for me to be here. If I''m found out..." "Be careful. Nothing can go wrong at this juncture." Jiang Chujing scolded Mengyao in a heavy tone. After saying that, she was afraid that Jiang Mengyao would rebel, so she added slowly, "Don''t worry, I won''t let you wait too long." "Okay." Jiang Mengyao wanted to say something more when the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open and the nurse''s friendly voice came. "Miss Jiang, it''s time for a blood test..." "Someone''s here. I won''t tell you more, and I''ll keep you updated." After that, Jiang Chujing hung up the phone. She hid the phone in her sleeve, looked at the mirror, and adjusted her expression before walking out. In front of others, she looked innocent again. "I just went to the bathroom. Come on." [...] Shu Tian''s resignation report was not approved by Li Han, and he just suspended her. He knew that Shu Tian was as stubborn as him. Once she had decided, it was difficult to change her mind, but he still had a glimmer of expectation in his mind. As long as he didn''t approve it, she would still be his employee, which made him feel more Thest conversation not only did not resolve the conflict between them, but also escted it. Shu Tian was busy taking care of Shu Changlei, and Li Han was busy with business and Jiang Chujing''s illness. It was not easy for him to make time, but Shu Tian ignored himpletely. Several timeste at night, Li Han drove from the Imperial Vi and didn''t even go into the building of the inpatient department. He just parked the car downstairs and watched the lights in Shu Tian''s ward. Then he lit a cigarette and smoked quietly without doing anything. Ling Junze scolded Li Han several times for being too ponderous. Li Han loved Shu Tian. So why didn''t he speak it out and apologize? Was it that difficult? Actually, it wasn''t difficult. It was just that the problem between them could no longer be alleviated by an apology. The problems had umted for a long time. Li Han didn''t expect such a serious consequence to happen, but it happened. Perhaps it was a mistake to allow Jiang Chujing to return home. Li Han thought that he was also a jerk to her and did everything he really shouldn''t do, it was not Shu Tian''s fault for being so resistant to him now. However, Shu Tian did not know what Li Han had done, nor was she in the mood to think about it. And her only wish was that Shu Changlei could be discharged as soon as possible. Fortunately, Shu Changlei recovered well and could go home to rest after the second week of the operation. The attending doctor suggested going to the rehabilitation building for health training, but considering the cost and convenience, Shu Changlei still wanted to go home. Although Ling''s Hospital was good enough and it''s well-equipped, it was not as rxing as home. On the day Shu Changlei was discharged from the hospital, Shu Tian went to pay the bill but was told that she could not pay. On second thought, she understood that it was Li Han''s order. He had said before that he would pay it, but now... Shu Tian clenched the medical bill in her hand and turned to walk towards the dean''s office. She didn''t want to talk with Li Han, then it was the same to go to Ling Junze. Walking through the long corridor, she stood at thergest office door on this floor, and she found the words "Dean''s Office" on the door te above her head. Shu Tian raised her hand and was about to knock on the door when she suddenly heard a bang inside. Her hand that was about to fall stopped. She was not eavesdropping on purpose, but there was really a loud noise inside. Just as she was hesitating whether to knock on the door, the door, which was close to her fingertips, suddenly vibrated, as if something inside had pressed against it. But Shu Tian soon knew what it was because... "Ling, Ling Junze, this is the office. What are you doing..." A woman''s annoyed and coquettish voice came through the door. "What do you think I''m doing?" The man''s voice was low and he was panting. Both voices were familiar. When Shu Tian heard the sound, she immediately knew that they were Ling Junze and Tian Sangsang. But... Why were they together? Chapter 228 Chapter 228 Although Tian Sangsang often appeared with Ling Junze before, Shu Tian really didn''t expect them to be a couple. She was a little shocked for a moment. Without the desire to eavesdrop, she was about to turn around to leave when the door was suddenly opened from inside. Tian Sangsang ran out with a blush on her face and was surprised to see her standing at the door. "Shu Tian?" Their eyes met, and after a while, Ling Junze also came out. As they three stood facing each other for a moment, it was Shu Tian who came to her senses first and waved the bill in her hand. "I''m here to ask Doctor Ling about the hospitalization expenses." With that, she nced at them awkwardly. "I''m sorry to disturb you." "It''s okay." Tian Sangsang said to Shu Tian, but cursed Ling Junze in her heart, "It was all his fault that he insisted on messing around in the office. How awkward it is now as spotted." Then she couldn''t stand the wired atmosphere and was about to leave. "Youe in. I''ll go first." Shu Tian nodded at her, knowing that she was embarrassed and didn''t say anything more. Ling Junze''s eyes were fixed on Tian Sangsang''s fleeing figure until she waspletely out of sight. For the first time, Shu Tian saw the flirtatious smile was drawn on his handsome and pure face. Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Shu Tian had always thought that Ling Junze was different from all Li Han''s friends. Now it seemed that he just hid it. Ling Junze turned to give way to her. "Come in." In the office, Shu Tian put the bill on the table in front of him. "Doctor Ling, I just went to the window to pay the bill and was told that all my father''s expenses were charged to Li Han''s ount. I can pay for my father''s expenses myself." Since Ling Junze had already expected that she would say so, he certainly couldn''t agree. He are not an exception. As long as my friendse to my hospital, I wouldn''t charge too much. I''ll only charge for the medical materials and surgery. Don''t take it too seriously." "I know." Shu Tian sat up slightly, as if she would be more confident. "I mean, no matter how much my father''s expenses are, I''d like to pay by myself." "Shu Tian, I know you have some issues with with Han now, but this is what he asked me to do. He is also afraid that you will have a heavy burden to bear..." "Junze." Shu Tian interrupted him, afraid that she would be heartbroken if he continued, "I know you are in dilemma, but please, please charge my father''s expenses to my ount." Since Shu Tian had already used the word "please", Ling Junze could not say more. It would be useless to continue to persuade her. Actually, it was not difficult for him to charge the expenses to her ount, but when would she and Li Han resolve their differences? [...] In the end, the expenses of Shu Tian father''s were charged to her ount. After Shu Tian paid, she was relieved. As Ling''s Hospital was a private hospital, the medical insurance couldn''t cover too much but about 30% of the total cost. She sorted out all the documents before she was about to return to the ward. She didn''t expect to see Li Han sitting on the sofa and talking to Shu Changlei in the wheelchair when she walked to the door of the ward. Shu Tian was so frightened that she rushed in without thinking much. With the door pushed open and bouncing back against the wall, she immediately stepped in front of Shu Changlei and looked at Li Han face to face nervously and vigntly. "What are you doing here?!" The man raised his eyes and met her gaze, which was full of defense and suspicion. He narrowed his eyes mockingly and closed his eyes before he opened them. "I heard that Uncle Shu would be discharged from the hospital today." "It''s none of your business!" Shu Tian was a little emotional, afraid that Shu Changlei would be provoked again. "You can go." Li Han followed her fingertips to look at the door. She came in so anxiously that the door wasn''t even closed. Was she was afraid that he would do something bad to Shu Changlei? It seemed that he was really not trustworthy at all in her heart. Just as they stood facing each other in silence, Shu Changlei raised his arm to pull Shu Tian. "Tian, youe out. I have something to talk about with Mr. Li alone." "Dad!" Shu Tian turned around and looked worriedly at his father, who was still slightly pale. "What are you going to talk about with him?" "I said I have something to talk about with him!" Shu Changlei frowned, feeling a little irritated. Shu Tian said nothing. She didn''t want to argue with him as he had just recovered from a serious illness. "Okay, You can talk with him. I''ll listen here." "It has nothing to do with you. Youe out." Seeing that she was about to say something else, Shu Changlei repeated in a heavy tone, "Come out!" Seeing how resolute Shu Changlei was, Shu Tian took a deep breath. She turned her eyes to the man beside her. From the moment she entered the door, she was finally willing to speak to him calmly, "My father just recovered. Don''t argue with him." Li Han said coldly with a sneer, "Am I so disgusting in your heart?" "You just promise." As she walked out, she constantly turned around, which showed her distrust obviously. It was not until the figure disappeared at the door that Li Han looked at Shu Changlei again. "Uncle Shu, as you see, Tian was ming me." Shu Changlei snorted coldly. "Do you think she should thank you?" After that, he added, "Mr. Li, I know you''ve helped Shu Tian a lot. You''ve been bothering about the divorce case and her job. But Shu Tian has been always honest and simple since she was a child. She''s not suitable for people like you who are so famous and sessful." "Uncle Shu, I do love Shu Tian. It has nothing to do with my background or status. I believe she also loves me instead of my money." At this point, Li Han was quite sure that she was different from all the women around him. "It''s easy for her, such a simple girl, to have a good impression of a sessful man like Mr. Li," Shu Changlei retorted Li Han just with several words. Li Han lowered his eyes and looked at his hands on thep, suppressing the desire to say all his thoughts, and he just said, "Uncle Shu, I know you and auntie have a problem with me now. But I just "I appreciate your kindness. But you don''t need toe again." Shu Changlei also felt it was really a p in the face for him that such a happy thing ended up like this. Li Han didn''t talk with Shu Changlei for a long time. The reasony in two. First, there weren''t too many worry too much. Even Shu Changlei had experienced much of life, he still felt the pressure in front of Li Han since he was 1.88 meters tall with such an imposing manner. He couldn''t imagine how Shu Tian got along with such a man. With the door opened, Li Han saw Shu Tian''s nervous expression as expected. Seeing Li Hane out, Shu Tian was about to enter the ward without saying anything but was stopped with her wrist grabbed by him. Thinking that he would say something unpleasant again her, she had already thought of the words to fight back, but there was no chance for them toe in handy. As Li Han said, "Stay at home for a week and wait for Uncle Shu to get better before returning to Imperial Vi." Shu Tian was so surprised that she thought she was hallucinating since she didn''t expect him to say so. But she quickly came back to her senses before she forcefully freed her hands from Li Han. And she walked past him with her head down, leaving only two cold words, "Got it." Chapter 229 Chapter 229 Seeing Shu Tian leave after signing the discharge papers, Li Han returned to the downstairs ward. When he pushed the door open and went in, Jiang Chujing had been awake. She was sitting at the bedside and staring out the window. When she heard the sound behind, she turned around and withdraw her knees. She sped hands around her legs and asked softly, "Has Shu Tian''s father been discharged?" "Yes." Li Han closed the door behind him with a calm look. In his current state, he felt exhausted walking into this ward. "Han, I know you me me. I''m partly at fault. I admit that I didn''t want to have a conflict at that time, but I didn''t know why..." At this point, Jiang Chujing paused and her eyes reddened as if she was so aggrieved and regretful that she didn''t know how to continue. Li Han looked at her red eyes. He had ever cherished her as his own sister, but now he felt indifferent. Had she changed, or had he? Maybe they both had changed. The man walked to the bedside and his eyes fell on her face. "Do as the treatment tells. Don''t worry about anything else. You can go anywhere you want after you recover." After a second of bemusement, Jiang Chujing yed dumb with a smile. "I''m not going anywhere. I just want to stay by your side." She looked over with tears in her eyes, as fragile as a flower swaying in the storm. "You know..." However, although she was an unaggressive flower, she drove a wedge between Li Han and Shu Tian. Li Han did not avoid her gaze but looked straight into her eyes. Instead of looking at her, he was scrutinizing her. "You can see what has happened when you stay by my side, so for your own good, I will let you go." "I don''t care!" Jiang Chujing shook her head instantly. "As long as I can stay by your side, I won''t care about anything." "Chu Jing." Li Han suddenly called her name in a deep and cold voice. For the first time, his eyes grew cold. "What you''ve done has crossed the line." Jiang Chujing froze. It had been nearly a month since she woke up. During this period, he had never mentioned anything about Shu Changlei. She would panic at first, but then she gradually calmed down. She even thought that he waspletely on her side in his heart, but she had never expected his n to send her away again! Hispanion in the ward these days was meaningless. His me on Shu Tian was nothing. In the end, the one who could apany him was not her, but that bitch! All her efforts were useless. She knew that Li Han had misunderstood that Shu Tian pushed her down, so she was even more desperate. Even if he held this view, he still liked that woman! Jiang Chujing turned her face away, afraid that she would expose her inside hatred. She gritted her teeth, suppressing the surging emotions in her heart. "Han, do you really want me to leave?" "Not I want, but you." His voice was very rational as if he had seen everything clearly. His calmness scared Jiang Chujing. She had mentioned her parents countless times, but now she didn''t dare to mention them, afraid that it would disgust him." I know I am wrong, but I never want to hurt anyone, but Shu Tian, she almost killed me. Do you know how scared I was when I was pushed into the pool? But now you''re asking me to leave. Maybe it''s unnecessary for me to live in this world." "No. It''s your life, not mine or anyone else''s. Chu Jing, get fit and pursue the life you want." "I want it too, okay?" Jiang Chujing raised her voice, but unfortunately, the long treatment had drained most of her strength. She was hoarse. "It isn''t me who has caused all this. It is you! If it wasn''t for you, I wouldn''t have ended up alone, but I can''t believe you want me to leave. Han, you''ve changed. You''ve changed so much that I almost don''t know you..." As she spoke, she became so agitated that tears rolled down her cheeks, as if Li Han had done something wrong to her. "Chu Jing, I didn''t do anything wrong to you. I just owe your parents. I hope you can understand. As long as I''m here, I''ll protect you. But I can''t give you anything more." Jiang Chujing goggled at him, feeling the man was unreasonable. "You mean, you don''t feel a little guilty about me?" Her tearful eyes resembled that of her mother, who was lying on the hospital bed after the car ident. Her mother held Li Han''s hand sadly and entrusted Jiang Chujing to him. Li Han frowned and closed his eyes slowly because he was unable to face her eyes. He said with difficultly, "I don''t mean that." "Then what do you mean? Tell me." Jiang Chujing was determined to make it clear ande to the point. She didn''t care if he was her beloved or not. She just knew that if she hurt, she would hurt others even more! Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Li Han had been tortured by such feelings for so many years, and he gradually became indifferent. If it wasn''t for Shu Tian, he might have gotten used to Jiang Chujing''s arrogance, but now he realized what his indulgence had brought to her. "I will make the best arrangements for you to live the life you want, as long as you don''t continue to meddle in the rtionship between me and Shu Tian." "Shu Tian doesn''t trust you. It''s a problem between you two, but none of my business." Jiang Chujing clearly saw the sadness in Li Han''s eyes. She was best at prodding at the man''s weakness. "If she believes you, you won''t have been like this." "It has anything to do with you." The man''s hands, which were hanging by his sides, clenched inwardly. He tried his best to control his temper rationally. "Have a good rest. Thinking about it won''t do you any good in recovery." Then he turned around and walked out. It was a waste for him to take another look. Jiang Chujing''s eyes smoldered with anger. "Li Han! I can leave, as long as you can give me a The man stopped, but he did not look back. "What?" Jiang Chujing took a deep breath and said word by word, "My parents passed away, and there are no other rtives by my side except my grandmother. Although she has been in a bad condition for so many years, I want to spend more time with her. When I am treated at home, I want to take time to see her." When Li Han heard it, he suddenly turned around. He was told about Zhang Lancheng''s condition, and now Jiang Chujing made such a demand. Was it a coincidence or... She had already known it? He inquiringly looked at the slightest expression on her face. Jiang Chujing''s heart was so thumping that she almost felt dizzy, but she still forced herself to look at him. "It is myst request. Can''t you agree to it?" Chapter 230 Chapter 230 Perhaps due to the consideration of Zhang Lancheng in a critical situation, Li Han wavered and gazed at Jiang Chujing with his sharp and determined eyes to figure out her real purpose. Her expression rarely changed. Even if there was some tiny change, Li Han failed to interpret it. "Han, is that too much? I won''t bother anyone. I only want to spend some time with her." She continued to plead with him. Actually, it was her tactic to dominate the conversation. He breathed heavily and said. "Okay, but not before you get better." An outright rejection was not proper, but he couldn''t say yes since Zhang Lancheng was not in good health. Therefore, he chose to dy her visit. She had expected that he would not say yes. This answer satisfied her. "Okay, I will definitely obey the doctor not only for myself but also to see grandma as soon as possible." He turned to leave the ward without a reply. When the door closed, he was free of the stifling depression. He had never felt so tired to face her before. Actually, he was still too young to realize that things would be totally different when responsibility became a burden. [...] Shu Tian had been at home to take care of her father since he came back from the hospital. He had recovered quickly thanks to Ye Lihua''s meticulous care. About half a monthter, he was strong enough to handle his daily life on his own. In the fourth week, Shu Tian received a call from Fu Qingtong who had gone abroad to study secretly. Hearing the news of Shu Tian''s father, Fu Qingtong rushed back right away. It was a long journey. Shu Tian was touched and invited her home to have dinner. After that, Shu Tian intended to drive her back and then went to a bar under Fu Qingtong''s request. Fu Qingtong said she missed it after a long time of absence. Knowing that something was on Fu Qingtong''s mind, Shu Tian readily agreed. The bar, called LoriBar, was at the center of the J City, merely open to its members. All drinks were imported, about one thousand dors per cup. So it was absolutely not a ce for ordinary people to have fun. "One of my friends is the co-founder of the bar, and he gave me a member card. Order whatever you like." Fu Qingtong knew that Shu Tian led a thirsty life and handed the card to the waiter. "Please put all the drinks on my tab." "Yes, madam." Shu Tian looked through the menu and ordered a non-alcoholic cocktail. She didn''t want to drink too much since she needed to drive the car. Fu Qingtong grumbled about her option, "Miss, are you going to celebrate the return of your long-time-no-see friend only with this? Don''t worry. I''ll hire a chauffeur for you." "But..." "No more but. If your father goes to bed early, you can stay at my home. I live alone, so nothing to fear." Atst, Shu Tian surrendered. Fu Qingtong ordered a cocktail with high alcohol content instead and asked for a bottle. Shu Tian didn''t remember the name of the liquor, but the price frightened her. Two sses jingled. They raised their heads and drank it. Spicy but mellow in the mouth. The liquid ran down their throat and arrived at their stomachs. The aftertaste was sweet. "You get what you pay for!" Fu Qingtong eximed, her eyes falling on the handsome waiter in a ck and white uniform at the bar counter. "Look at those bartenders. They are either from top universities or very capable." "Really? Graduates from top universities should be willing to be bartenders!" "Why not?" Fu Qingtong snorted. "No one will reject the money. Besides, it is a decent job." Shu Tian looked at her profile. The soft light from above scattered on her face and blurred her features. Fu Qingtong was shining. Shu Tian curled up the corner of her mouth, only to disy some destion. "Tong, you haven''t got it over, right?" They had never exchanged a word on the ident concerning Ji Chuanyi, but they had understood each other since they had been close friends for too long. "Does it matter? Whichever my answer is, he never minds it and continues his happy life." Fu Qingtong looked down, picked her ss, and took a sip. "We are adults. No one should be responsible for you except yourself." Maybe Fu Qingtong said so tofort herself, but it did make sense. No one had the right to force anyone else to do something. Only you yourself were responsible for yourself. "Tong..." Shu Tian paused, afraid of hurting her. Fu Qingtong waved her hand. "Don''t bother yourself. I''m fine. If you really mean it, let''s drink more." She naturally didn''t reject her request but gulped the cocktail down ss after ss. One hourter, her head became heavy. Her phone rang in her pocket. It was from Ye Lihua. They had left home too hasty to give her a note. Afraid that she was anxious, Shu Tian signaled to Fu Qingtong and hurried out of the bar. Turning into a quiet corner nearby, she answered, "Hello, mom." "Tian, it''s almost midnight. Where are you?" "I am with Tong. She faces some trouble, so we have a chat together. I''ll sleep at her home. Please go to bed soon." "Why don''t you bothe back? You can share a bed. Better than disturb her family..." "It''s okay, mom. She lives alone now. Don''t worry." Ye Lihua looked at the clock. "Okay, take care of yourself. It''s not safe outside for two girls atte night." "Yes, I see. Good night, mom." She hung up the phone and was about to return when a few people suddenly appeared in front of her. Shu Tian found that three boys in their twenties carried a girl who obviously was drunk and staggered. "Is it okay here? Are you sure there''s no surveince?" A boy with yellow hair asked. A bolder guy answered. "It''s okay. I''ve already checked it in advance. Don''t worry!" Then two of them began toy their hands on the girl who wore an unwilling expression and tried to push them away but failed with weak hands. Another boy kept a lookout for them. Shu Tian looked around. Perhaps due to the alcohol, she didn''t think too much about the consequence before she strode forward. "What are you doing?" They were startled by her voice. The yellow-haired boy swore, "Fuck, where did the womane from? I''m scared out of my wits!" The other two boys also turned to look at her. When their eyes fell on her delicate and wless face, the anger in their tone disappeared. They said teasingly. "Oh, a beauty!" Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Someone reached out to touch her chin. Shu Tian felt disgusted and tilted her head to one side. "Don''t touch me when I''m talking to you!" "Well, the hot-tempered is more interesting than this drunken one!" He let go of the girl in his arms and stepped close to Shu Tian. "Miss, you''ve drunk a lot too. How about having fun with us?" She shook his hands off and said coldly, "Don''t touch me!" "Oh!" The man smiled and threatened her. "Do you wanna die here?" His two friends moved forward to grab her shoulder at his wink. The man grabbed her chin, forcing her to look up. His bold gaze roamed over her until his eyes fell on her bosom, which lured him to put his hands on it to feel the softness. Shu Tian widened her eyes and shook her body hard to free herself. However, she failed, no matter how hard she tried. She could only thwart him with words. "It''s illegal!" "No one will see it in the dark, and there is no surveince. I''m not scared at all." The man turned a deaf ear to her words. The hands came to her bosom nearer and nearer... Suddenly, he was stopped by a huge force behind him. "How dare you touch my woman?" Chapter 231 Chapter 231 The man couldn''t see the person''s face without turning around. After all, he was too young and immature to handle this. After being frightened, he bluffed, "Who are you? Don''t be nosy!" He couldn''t see the man''s face, but Shu Tian could. The man was six feet tall with a slender figure. It could be told from his athletic muscles that he was a opposing. He was just standing there, and didn''t need any words or actions to make people tremble. The two young hooligans were in a panic, for the game had been over before it started. They were not at the same level. These hooligans were nobodies, but the man standing behind them was frightening and awe-inspiring. It was the same sharp face with outstanding features and the wild buzz cut. He was the man that had made Shu Tian impressive, Meng Shichuan. In the dark corner, there were only the curses of the two hooligans, pretending that they were brave but sounded fragile and guilty in fact. Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. "Oh!" Suddenly, the yellow hair hooligan howled and screamed in pain, "Let go of me. You are breaking my arm!" "It hasn''t been broken yet." The man said and wrung his wrist hard secretly. With a crack sound, he said calmly, "Now it''s broken." "Oh... Ouch, ouch, it hurts so much... Help! Help!" The yellow-haired man fell to the ground, curled up and hugged his arm, screaming loud. Meng Shichuan looked up, glimpsing Shu Tian, then quickly turned to stare at the man behind her. "What? You want to try it too?" The man was already scared out of his wits. He immediately let go of his hand and kept bowing and apologizing, "I''m sorry, we didn''t know she is your girl. I''m so sorry, bro..." His words, "your girl" had sessfully reduced Meng Shichuan''s displeasure by a little. He just red at him and yelled without making a move, "Get out!" The three of them helped each other out, but Shu Tian did not feel relieved at all, because the man standing in front of her was far scarier than those hooligans. Although he had saved her, no one could tell what would happen next. In her mind, a man like Meng Shichuan could do something like "saving you was just to kill you." There were no lights on the path, only the dim light at the intersection. He stood in front of her to block half the light, and the wind blew over with the unique smell of cigars on the man. After a moment of silence, Shu Tian walked around him to the girl and helped her up. "Are you okay?" The girl was so drunk and dizzy for she had been probably drugged as well. She gibbered, "I, I..." She couldn''t even say aplete sentence, let alone her family address. Just as Shu Tian was trying to figure out a way, the man''s cold voice came from above. "You are too weak to meddle in other people''s business." Shu Tian stiffened, feeling a chill . "I... Don''t think it''s meddling." "Heh." He chuckled, "You just don''t give up hope while there''s a shot in the locker." Shu Tian didn''t want to stay with him for too long. His aura was overbearing and evil. She could tell by a nce that he was kick ass. Therefore, she felt uneasy. In order to get away as soon as possible, she thanked him even though she was reluctant. "Thank you for helping me. My friend is still at the bar. I''ll go first." As she spoke, she walked out. But unexpectedly, right after she had taken a step, the man in front of her immediately stepped in her direction. Shu Tian frowned, and changed to the other side. However, he followed her wherever she headed, leaving no space for her to escape. Unable to pretend not to see, Shu Tian took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Meng, please step aside." "Mr. Meng?" Meng Shichuan gave an enchanting smile, "You haven''t forgotten my surname yet." Shu Tian was speechless. They locked eyes, with hers being embarrassed and his being deep. Speaking of experience and astuteness, Shu Tian was no match for him. Meng Shichuan suddenly raised his hand, and the man following him in the corner immediately came forward and handed over a cigarette. With the blurred smoke lingering between them, the atmosphere eased. But Shu Tian felt that something was wrong with him. She wondered if he''s wasting time with her. As time passed, Shu Tian began to worry about Fu Qingtong. She could not help but soften her tone. "Mr. Meng, I''m really in a hurry. I appreciate your help, but please let me go..." "Shu Tian." Meng Shichuan suddenly called her name, frowning with his heavy eyebrows. Then his views fell on the cigarette nkly, and suddenly smiled, "This is the third time we''ve met." The first time they met on the fishing ground. The second time was on the ind. And this was the third time they met. He had never had such a close rtionship with anyone. It was such a wonderful fate. "It is indeed a coincidence to meet three times, but I believe it is not a strange thing for you." But Meng Shichuan shook his head when he heard this. "All people that I''ve met more than three times have been..." He stopped, then moved his hand with the cigarette near his neck and crept across it. What he meant was obvious. If someone else had done this, Shu Tian would have thought he was dropping the act, but she had seen Meng Shichuan holding a gun and pulling the trigger without hesitation. It was too shocking and frightening that it had been hard to forget until now. Shu Tian looked away, feeling a little flustered. Before she could figure out how to respond, a refreshing smell suddenly came to her nose. Before she could tell, her chin had already been held by a dry palm. "Oh!" She let out a low cry and took two steps back, until her back was against the rough concrete wall, which was extremely firm. The man held her tightly by merely two fingers, and she even felt a little pain in the chin. He lifted her jaw, forcing her to look at him. "I''m talking to you. What are you thinking about?" He could tell her fear from her panic eyes. She was like a frightened rabbit, with her watery ck eyes seemed to cry tears with a little more stimtion. However, Meng Shichuan knew that she would not cry, for she was not a submissive person at all. Sure enough, a few secondster, the panic in Shu Tian''s eyes turned into anger. "Don''t touch me!" Meng Shichuan chuckled and thought to himself that she needed to be taught a lesson. But he didn''t say it, instead, he looked at her meaningfully and said coldly, "I know you''ve been having a hard time recently. What I promised you before still counts." Things didn''t go well... She had been tortured by the mess of Jiang Chujing and Li Han recently, and Shu Changlei had fallen ill again. Plus, she had resigned. Everything sucked, but how did he know? Shu Tian''s eyes turned cold, "You''ve investigated me?" Chapter 232 Chapter 232 "I don''t need to inquire about you. As long as I''m willing, I can know everything." Shu Tian was angered with his arrogance. "So what do you want?" "Nothing." Meng Shichuan paused and withdrew his hand. Although he had restrained his strength, there was still a red mark on her delicate chin. Seeing that, he frowned and loosened his grip. "If you can''t keep on one day, you cane to me. I''ll help you." Frowning, she didn''t understand why he suddenly said that. But she didn''t intend to ask further. "Thank you, Mr. Meng. Everything is fine," she said. Having stared at her for a while, he casually raised his hand and stuffed something into her pocket, which made her flesh creep. Fortunately, he only made such a move and did nothing else. Then he turned around and left directly. Watching the tall figure disappear at the intersection, she gently took out what was in her pocket with trembling fingertips. It was another business card without the title orbel. Only a string of private numbers was on it. She clenched it tightly, and the edges of the card was prickly. She did not understand why he did that at this point, but she felt more and more uneasy. [...] After Shu Changlei finished the convalescent examination, Ye Lihua and Shu Tian felt rxed. His recovery was optimistic without any problem. But this meant Shu Tian had to face Li Han once more. She had a lot of things left in Imperial Vi. Shu Changlei''s illness had taken a long time. She had been fudging on this issue. But one day she had to face it. Originally, she wanted to gather up during the day, but she was unsure. She dyed until night. ording to the information that Zhang Bikun told Zhang Rui''er, Li Han had a social engagement tonight. Because it was a particrly important dinner, he probably would not return until the early morning. Only then did she feel relieved and dragged a suitcase to the vi. When she opened the door, she saw Nanny Li. The old woman''s eyes immediately turned red. But she apologized to Shu Tian, "I''m sorry, Miss Shu. I..." Shu Tian interrupted before she could finish, "Nanny Li, it''s none of your business. You don''t have to apologize." Nanny Li didn''t know what to say at that moment. Originally, she was happy that Shu Tian was back, but when she saw the suitcase in her hand, her expression changed slightly. "Miss Shu, you..." "I came to pack today. I forgot to tell you in advance." In fact, she didn''t forget. She was afraid that Nanny Li would tell Li Han. Nanny Li stood by with aplicated look. Mr. Li told her that if Miss Shu came back, she must contact him. But now... Seeing her dilemma, Shu Tian smiled in relief, "Just tell him." She came here because she was sure he wouldn''t be able toe back tonight. Watching her carry the suitcase upstairs, Nanny Li sighed. She picked up the CDMA to dial Li Han. Upstairs, Shu Tian walked straight to the door of the master bedroom. The moment she took a deep breath and raised her hand to push the door open, a familiar breath swept over her. Actually, she had lived there for more than half a year, which was enough for her to get used to everything here. Her eyes wandered from the bedroom, the bathroom, the sofa, the bedside, and then to the balcony. Every ce was filled with memories, whether good or bad. And now, the memories came to her mind which made her miserable. She hurriedly looked away, afraid that she would not bear to leave if she thought more. She knew that if she didn''t deal with the thing about Jiang Chujing, she would have endless problems. But she still couldn''t stop loving him. Turning around to go into the cloakroom, she only took away the clothes and jewelry she had brought. In the middle, she saw the white nightgown. At that time, when she quarreled with Jiang Chujing over it, Li Han deliberately bought an identical one to hang on, but she never wore it again. Thinking of that, sheughed mockingly. In fact, it was nothing to do with the dress. It was Jiang Chujing who was not in good faith. She ced the clothes and items at the bottom of the suitcase one by one as if she sank their rtionship with no good result into her heart. Her eyes turned red. The pain in her throat was burning. Not being particrly anxious, she said a silent goodbye to everything here. About an hourter, she closed the suitcase and took a deep look at the room. Just as she was about to wheeled the suitcase away, the bedroom door was suddenly opened from the outside. When she turned around, a familiar ck figure came into her eyes. She felt as if her heart was hit hard by a hammer. She was so surprised that she stumbled. How did he, how did hee back? Hadn''t he had an important social event... His eyes quickly followed her hand to the silver suitcase. His expression suddenly became gloomy. For her, such an oppressive gaze was already a difficult punishment.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. The air here was freezing in an instant. In less than half a minute, she felt ice-cold. It was useless to force herself to calm down. "Li, Li Han?" Her voice trembled so much that everyone heard could tell how scared she was. Step by step, the man standing in front of her walked towards her. Finally, he stopped two punches away from her and said, "You came back just to pack up and leave?" His voice was soft, but it did not make anyone feel rxed. It was full of solemnity. Shu Tian felt so helpless. She could not resist such a horrible look. She unconsciously released the suitcase. The click did not scare him but made her tremble. "Why are you back?" "If I didn''te back, have you already left?" Their eyes met with the inexplicable emotions merging. At that point, they finally understood that it was not anger but sadness. She moved away first. When she lowered her head, a faint smell of alcohol wafted into her nose. Only then did she realize that he had drunk tonight. When she realized, she was even more flustered. "Did you drink?" He didn''t answer but looked at her quietly. Tonight, after receiving a call from Nanny Li, he dropped the cooperation project which valued tens of billions of dors without saying anything. For the first time in his life, he had made such an irrational decision. He was afraid that he would never find her if he came back a stepter. But she didn''t understand, and he wouldn''t say it either. "Shu Tian." He called her name calmly. Raising his hand to lift her thin chin, he said with a frown, "Do you have to leave me?" Devastated by his question, she shook her head gently. His dark eyes blinked as if she tried to regain herposure. "How can I stay..." Chapter 233 Chapter 233 "Is it because of Chu Jing?" Li Han took a step forward to hug her and sighed, "Tian tian, give me some time. I''ll deal with it." "It''s not that I haven''t given it to you. It''s toote now." The man''s temperature which she liked so much in the past was transmitted through his clothes. Now it was torture for her to push him away. "My parents won''t allow me to continue to be with you. Li Han, let''s all calm down. Your family won''t agree either." She used to think that these problems could be ovee, but now it seemed that it was impossible. The man said in a hoarse voice. "I can''t live without you." His love for her had been curved in his bones for a long time, and now it was toote for him to stop suddenly. That yearning for her would grow crazily and devour him. "You can only make me suffer with you." "I said I wouldn''t let this happen again." "What to guarantee? For you or Jiang Chujing''s character? This time it''s my father. Will my mother get harmed next time?" As she spoke, she became agitated and tried to struggle out of his arms. Li Han tightened his arms, not letting her leave him for half a step. The alcohol didn''t make him drunk, but it encouraged him to tell the truth. "I can''t fall in love with anyone else except for you." His wasck of love originally, and now he had finally given her all the enthusiasm he had umted for so long, and there was no left to others. Shu Tian was like a beam of light that shone into his dark life. If it was removed, it would never be there again, so he had to grab her. As a drowning man holding on to thest straw, he was also trying to keep this girl who had given him countless warmth. Shu Tian stopped because of this sentence. After all, he was a man she had loved deeply. It was impossible to say that she was not touched at all, but she had to calm down. "Li Han, it''s over. Let''s just leave each other alone." "I have no way out if you leave me." He finally released a little and raised his hand to touch her delicate cheek. "I''ve been criticized, betrayed, and even left by countless people along the way. I''ve survived. You''re the only one I can''t get through. I don''t know how to reduce your pain, but it''s impossible for me to give up on you." He said thest words fiercely and heavily as if he could change the result. Shu Tian closed her eyes gently withplex feelings. "Why did you force me to stay?" "It''s even enough to watch you." Before meeting Shu Tian, he had never thought that one day he would be so dependent on a person. Everything quietly changed before he had noticed, and when he realized that, he could not leave her already. "Li Han, don''t be so selfish, okay? Have you ever thought about how painful it would be for me to be stuck between you and Jiang Chujing? How can you treat me like this just out of your love?" He couldn''t answer. For him, everything was not suffered to be with Shu Tian. But he could not say that he was selfish indeed. After a moment of silence, he took a step back and looked at the suitcase beside her feet. "If you insist This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. on leaving, leave without your luggage." "For what?" Shu Tian bent down and picked the luggage back up. "If I don''t agree, are you going to arrest me?" "You know that you can''t leave under my power even without controlling your freedom ." He said with a short smile. "Tian tian, you know that I don''t want to treat you like this." "You said you didn''t want to, but you did it." Shu Tian looked at him sadly. "You always say we''re reconciled, but you can''t leave Jiang Chujing." "She''ll go back to New Zend as soon as she gets better. She won''t be living in the vi during this period, and you can live in it alone." This evasive answer was obviously not what Shu Tian wanted. "I''m not talking about this, you know." Yes, he knew what she wanted, but abandoning Jiang Chujing was treacherous for him. He couldn''t do it considering the Jiang family''s parents who died because of him. "Nanny Li." He turned around and called. Nanny Li had been waiting downstairs the moment he went upstairs. When she heard Mr. Li calling her, she immediately walked up and said, "Mr. Li, what can I do for you?" "Take the luggage to the cloakroom and hang it up again." He pointed at the luggage in Shu Tian''s hand. Nanny Li nced at it and was a little embarrassed. Before she acted, Shu Tian said angrily, "Don''t ask Nanny Li. It''s about us." Nanny Li just worked for him and had no obligation to be in dilemma. Nanny Li looked at her gratefully and felt heartbroken. "Miss Shu, he really wants you to stay. He suffers a lot without you during these days. He''s lost a lot of weight." Everyone could not hate a loved person, even if they would never be together as before. When Nanny Li said that, Shu Tian had already subconsciously looked at him. The man''s already clear features of his face were even clearer because he had lost much weight, and his cheekbones somewhat looked higher. He had lost a lot of weight in the hospital, and now he was even thinner. Seeing that he had lost at least ten pounds in a short time, Shu Tian felt ufortable. But what could she do? It was as if there was a dead-end, and nothing could change the result. Shu Tian took a deep breath. "Then please take good care of him in the future." Li Han frowned and said in a lower voice, "Nanny Li, take the luggage in." "Emmm, okay..." Nanny Li had to take the luggage away from Shu Tian and pull it all the way into the cloakroom and hang up and fold the clothes as ordered. Shu Tian was angry and aggrieved since she felt that her arrival was a joke. She was so angry that she lost her mind, dragging him directly into the bedroom. Bang! When the door locked, she released the man''s wrist and stared at him with her bright eyes. She started to unbutton the buttons on her cor. "Don''t let me go? You don''t have enough fun yet, do you? Okay, I will give it to you!" She took off her coat, then the sweater inside, and the cardigan finally. A corner of her ckce underwear was revealed. Seeing that she was about to take it off, he grabbed her arm first. "Shu Tian, do you know what you''re doing?" "I know!" She smiled, with tears streaming out of her bloodshot eyes. "The reason why you don''t let me go is only for my body, isn''t it? I can''t love you anymore, and I''ll just satisfy you with my body. Come and get it if you want!" Li Han was embarrassed and was provoked by her words. In a few words, she summed up his painstaking efforts as worthless. "You..." Just as he was about to speak, he was paused by her bold action. The soft little hand was still cold and stuffed into his clothes to tease him. Chapter 234 Chapter 234 "Hiss..." She didn''t know how to do it, so she wasn''t gentle at all and made Li Han groan in pain. Shu Tian waspletely enraged when he instructed Nanny Li to put the luggage away. At this time, she didn''t care about his feeling but just wanted to make him feel ufortable. To some extent, she knew that Li Han would not do anything to her. Since she had said that, no matter how much lust he had, he wouldn''t touch her. This man was so proud. With this in mind, Shu Tian became even more unscrupulous. When she wanted to go further, he caught her, "Enough!" "How can that be enough!" Shu Tian retorted without thinking, "Will you let me go if you''re not satisfied yet?" The man''s cold face was slightly red, "I don''t know when you were good at this." Shu Tian raised her head and red at him, "It''s all thanks to you. Even a worm will turn!" "Do you think I''ll be satisfied with your skills?" Li Han bent down to pick up the sweater on the ground and put it on her rudely, regardless of whether the cor constricted her nose or not. Shu Tian struggled but wasn''t the match for the man. He managed to dress her after he tried for a long time, but the sweater was askew and her hair was in a mess and floated around her ears. After the confrontation, she finally gave up. As soon as Li Han let her go, her first action was to raise her hand to wipe away her tears. Her seemingly ferocious eyes were full of pity, "Does it hurt?!" Li Han stared at her tear-stained face and nodded lovingly, "It hurts." How could it not hurt? Seeing that she acted wildly, he was anxious and heart-wrenching. "Will you let me go?" She asked and choked with sobs. The man''s long eyshes blocked the fragility in his eyes. He was busy tidying her up but forgot that his shirt, which had been torn by her, was still open. He buttoned them up casually and said in a hoarse voice, "I''ll send you off." When she heard him say that, she should have breathed a sigh of relief. But she felt even sadder. She asked him to let her go, but the moment he really agreed, she felt sad. It was said that if lovers tortured each other, they could only feel tired in the end. There was no love that could be evesting after experiencing these twists and turns. Now it seemed that they were no exception. Sooner orter, they would be tired of each other and go their separate ways. Instead of that, it would be better for them to break up now, but... it was too difficult. [...] Knowing that she couldn''t dissuade him, she didn''t insist, letting him take the car from the garage and drive her out of Imperial Vi. But he finally put the luggage back. She came there without bringing anything and also left empty-handed. Along the way, they both kept silent. The quarrel disturbed their minds and no one had the desire to chat. He drove steadily along the way and they arrived at her neighborhood. Shu Tian didn''t let him drive into the neighborhood but let him stop by the side of the road outside it. She unbuckled her seat belt and hesitated for a few seconds before getting out of the car. She still couldn''t help but say, "You drank a All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. lot, so you''d better hire a designated driver." She came back in a hurry and forgot to remind him. Now she thought of it and worried about him. After saying that, she reached out to open the door, but she failed. She turned to look at the man beside her again, "Unlock the door. I want to get out of the car." Li Han stared at her, "Why did you ask me to find a driver? Are you still worried about me?" He seemed to be self-deprecating as if Shu Tian''s worry about him was rare. She was a little speechless because of his words, "You were drunk. You shouldn''t have driven and sent me off. If anything happens, I have to take responsibility." She was shirking the responsibility. "Don''t worry. No one dares to pick on me in J City." He turned a deaf ear to her, so Shu Tian didn''t want to say anything more, "Drive carefully on the way. I''m going upstairs." She reminded him to unlock the car, but the man seemed not to hear her. After a moment, he raised his hand and put it on the back of her tender hand, "Tian, I..." Before he could say anything, she had already begun to struggle hard. Li Han exerted a bit more strength but did not dare to clench it too tightly, afraid she would hurt, "I know you''re ming me in your heart. You and Chujing are both wrong about this. I won''t say anything more, and I won''t force you to agree with me now. You can think about it clearly. As long as you make the decision, let me know, no matter what the result is." Shu Tian pursed her lips, making her pink lips turn a little pale. Soon she let go and nodded her head, "I see. Let me go first." Li Han knew that she was putting him off, but he still let go and unlocked the car, allowing her to open the door and walk out smoothly. With her bag in her hand, Shu Tian walked straight to the gate of themunity without looking back, afraid that she would meet his deep eyes. From the entrance of themunity to the entrance of the apartment building, she never dared to look back. For the first time, she felt that it was so far. She climbed from the first floor to the fourth floor in one breath. She had the key but she broke into the house. Ye Lihua put on her coat and opened the door. She nced at Shu Tian''s empty hands and was puzzled, "Where''s your suitcase?" "It is in Imperial Vi..." "Oh, you... Didn''t you go to pack your things? Why did you leave your suitcase there?" Ye Lihua agreed Shu Hua moved out of Imperial Vi the most. Even if they were a couple now, she didn''t want her daughter to live there, let alone in this awkward situation. "Li Han didn''t allow me to take it away." Shu Tian knew he couldn''t hide it, so she simply told the truth. Hearing this, Ye Lihua was more worried, "He won''t pester you, will he? Tian, don''t cause any trouble. I heard Li Han is a big shot..." "It''s nothing." Shu Tian changed her shoes and sat weakly on the sofa, "Mom, don''t worry. He won''t do anything too much." "How do you know that? Have you forgotten how you suffered before?" Shu Tian nced at her and interrupted her. Ye Lihua knew that she was not feeling well either. She sighed and said nothing more, pouring Shu Tian a ss of water and telling her to go to bed early. Shu Tian sat alone in the living room for a while. When she calmed down a little, she entered the bedroom with the ss of water. The desk was next to the window, and she put down the ss. When she reached out to draw the curtains, she saw the conspicuous light downstairs. It was too dark outside in the middle of the night, so the light was especially prominent. The man who had just sent her here from Imperial Vi had not left yet. Even though he was four floors away and the car window was dark, she seemed to be able to feel his gaze. Chapter 235 Chapter 235 Shu Tian panicked and then immediately drew the curtains close. The thought of Li Han downstairs made her heart beat faster. She was nervous and there were some inexplicable feelings inside her heart. After she walked to the bedside and sat down, her phone, which was still at the bedside, rang. She clicked on it and saw that it was a message from him. "I''m not joking. Think about it carefully and then tell me your answer." She wished she could reply to him with her refusal right away. Yet looking at the screen, she just couldn''t say some harsh words to him. He had never been a person who would give in easily. His style of doing things had always been swift and decisive. Although he seemed a little dictatorial in dealing with some problems, it was what enable him with such a strong leadership momentum. If this text message hadn''t shown his cell phone number, she wouldn''t have believed it was sent by him. But it was him. To retain her, he had already done his best. He lied low, keeping a low profile. She was moved for that, N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. but the existence of Jiang Chujing would always be a nightmare in their rtionship. She cared because she loved him so much. And she needed to confirm that he and his everything only belonged to her. Just as she was in a daze, her phone vibrated again. "I won''t let Chujing disturb our lives again, pleasee back." If he could say this before this incident, she would have agreed without hesitation. But now it was inevitable that she had too many scruples, afraid that she would make the same mistake again if she was not careful. Back then, she had gone through too much in a rtionship, so now she became especially prudent about her decision. After a moment of pause, she then typed out a line of words, "I''ll think about it." And she then sent it to him. The screen dimmed slowly. But he didn''t reply. She turned off the lights and quietly approached the bed. Downstairs, his car still hadn''t been driven away. Sitting back on the bed, she fell down on it by her back. Right now, her mind was in a mess, flushing with lots of thoughts. Even so, she gradually fell asleep and had a dream. In the dream, there was Li Han, Jiang Chujing, and herself. She dreamed that they were in danger when they went traveling together. Yet he ran with Jiang Chujing and left her alone... However, at this moment, a very familiar face appeared in the dream. Meng Shichuan seemed to have fallen from the sky and stood in front of her, giving her a hand... "Ah!" She suddenly sat up from the bed, her head covered in sweat. It was already bright outside. The sun rose, and she could vaguely hear the car horns and the noise of the crowd downstairs. After sitting quietly for a moment, she raised her hand to wipe the sweat off her head. Her breathing was a little rapid. Fortunately, it was only a dream. But soon, she frowned. She didn''t know why she dreamed of Meng Shichuan. Perhaps it was because thest few experiences were too strange that she left an indelible impression on this man. "Tian, are you up?" Outside the door, Ye Lihua knocked on the door. Shu Tian lifted the quilt, put on her shoes, and then got out of bed. She walked to the door and opened it. "Mom, what''s wrong?" "Your father experienced an operation a while ago. I asked our neighbor, Aunt Li, about the reimbursement of the fee, but you need you to go to the hospital to print out the medical records and the bill. If you have time today, you can go over and get it done. I''ll go to the medical insurance office with your father to ask about more information." Shu Tian had nothing else to do after leaving thepany. She then nodded. "Okay." "You don''t look well. Why don''t you rest for a while?" "I just woke up. Don''t worry about me, mom." "Okay, then go cleaning yourself up and breakfast''s ready." After her mother left, she closed the door, put on her clothes and washed up. Her hair was tied up into a bun by her, which looked neat and simple. After everything was done, she pulled away the curtains and subconsciously looked at the ce where his car parkedst night. But it was empty now. Feeling depressed, she forced herself to look away and did not dare to think too much. [...] After breakfast, Shu Tian drove to Ling''s Hospital. Because Shu Changlei was hospitalized in a VIP ward before, there were not many people lining up there, and soon the necessary things were ready. When she went downstairs to check the bill at that time, she identally bumped into Jiang Chujing, who was wandering in the corridor. Jiang Chujing was wearing the hospital gown, and she was even thinner than before. Beside her was a foreign nurse. What an awful situation now! "What a coincidence." After asking the nurse to leave, Jiang Chujing took a few steps towards her. She caught a glimpse of the document in Shu Tian''s hand and showed a meaningful smile. "Congrattions, your father is discharged from the hospital. Are you here to go through the formalities?" Despite of her words, judging from her expression, Shu Tian did not see a trace of kindness, but a kind of swagger. Shu Tian then looked at her with coldness. "Miss Jiang, you almost diedst time. And you now don''t look good. In this status, you don''t have to congratte others, might as well worry about yourself." Jiang Chujing knew that she must look very haggard now. Shu Tian, on the other hand, although she didn''t look energetic, she was in a much better state than Jiang Chujing. So Jiang Chujing could not help but feel jealous and angry. She lowered her voice and whispered in a voice that only they could hear. "Well, to let you see who Li Han really loves in his heart, I''m willing to experience the pain again." "What do you know? You probably haven''t seen the way he begged me not to leave and stay by his side." Shu Tian seemed to be very rxed. When she faced Jiang Chujing again, she felt unprecedentedly calm, because she had already seen the true colors of this woman clearly. "Don''t you feel pathetic when you use such a despicable way to keep him by your side? You think you won? But you will be sent away after you recover." "You!" Jiang Chujing''s face darkened, and she couldn''t find a way to refute Shu Tian. Shu Tian didn''t want to continue this conversation, but from Jiang Chujing''s embarrassed look, it could be seen that Li Han was telling the truth about sending her away. Jiang Chujing must know it too. "Shu Tian!" Yet she stood in front of Shu Tian and blocked the way. She was so thin that she looked a bit like a bag of bones. Yet such a weak woman was pretty vicious. "Do you have to fight with me and take him away from me!" Shu Tian then took a step back and distanced her. Her voice was very soft, but her words sounded harsh. "If I want to fight you, you''ve lost countless times. You cry and shout to get what you want. It''s not what I would do. I disdain to use these methods to win a man''s heart. If I told Li Han that you fell on purpose, what do you think he would do?" In fact, she had told him about this, but he didn''t believe it at that time. Now she just wanted to frighten this woman. Before Jiang Chujing could answer, she had already walked past and left. Behind them, a man in a doctor''s white coat and mask quietly recorded what had happened... Chapter 236 Chapter 236 "Miss Shu just left the hospital..." The man turned around and entered a room that was used for treatment. He locked the door behind him and then opened themunication device. "Yes, she said something to Miss Jiang. She didn''t look very d. I couldn''t hear the details... Okay, I''ll keep you updated." The man received the payment and then immediately reopened the door. Soon, he bumped into a young nurse. Fortunately, he was wearing a mask. "Ah, I''m sorry..." The nurse looked at him and saw it was a doctor on duty. She was about to lower her head and apologize, but the man quickly left the room without looking back. The nurse almost was at a loss and looked in the direction where he left. There was already no one there. She muttered to herself, "Strange, who is he..." Just now the man was talking to another person on the other end of his phone. Meng Shichuan was standing in the VIP room on the top floor of a financial and trade building, which was thergest building in J City. He was swinging a golf club in his hand and throwing the golf ball towards the dark hole. With a click, the white ballnded steadily in the hole. He stopped and the man next to him immediately stepped forward to take the club away. The cuffs of his dark blue shirt were rolled up to the crooks of his arms, and the crystal buttons in the sleeves sparkled under the light. Jiang Chujing. Meng Shichuan had only recently heard this name often. If he hadn''t been secretly investigating Shu Tian, he might never have known about such a person for the rest of his life. Thinking of what his subordinate had reported on the phone, Meng Shichuan smiled as a fair and attractive little face shed through his mind. That woman obviously looked very stupid, so it was not unbelievable to see her tolerate her enemy in love over and over again. "Mr. Meng, Mr. Feng of the KL Group is here." The assistant respectfully reminded him from behind. Meng Shichuan calmed down and put on his custom-made suit jacket. As he leisurely tied his tie, he asked, "Are the documents ready?" "They''re ready." "Show him first. I''ll be there soon." "Okay, Mr. Meng." After the assistant left, Meng Shichuan stood in front of the mirror and tidied up his clothes. When he took the pen from the table, he happened to see a light yellow fluffy ball beside it. It was as big as the size of a thumbnail. His eyes dwelled on it for a moment, then he picked it up and looked at it for a while. It then suddenly urred to him how he got it. That night in the alley, she ran away in a hurry, when something was torn and broken and the fluffy ball was some pendant falling down. The color of the ball was fresh and tender and it wasfortable to touch it, just like the feeling she gave. Meng Shichuan smiled, got up, and walked out of the office quickly. The sunlight cast into the room through the panoramic ss. The fluffy ball, which was ced on the table before, was also put in his pocket by him. [...] After Shu Tian left, Jiang Chujing was also very unhappy. She was not in the mood to wander around anymore. She went straight back to the ward. The longer she sat at the bedside, the angrier she felt. As long as she remembered the arrogant face of that bitch just now, she would get furious. How dare Shu Tian say that?! What right did Shu Tian have to show off her rtionship with Li Han in front of her? Li Han was hers! Sending away? Jiang Chujing clenched her teeth tightly. She would never let such a thing happen to her. It was already a terrible mistake for her to have left five years ago. She would never allow anyone to separate them apart this time! Thinking of this, Jiang Chujing picked up the phone and called Jiang Mengyao, whom she had not been in contact with for a long time. "What''s going on at the hospital?" "Why do you still have the nerve to ask me? Jiang Chujing, I''ve been waiting for your call for so long. Are you looking for an excuse to fool me and then nning to run away on your own?" As Jiang Mengyao hadn''t been able to get into contact with Jiang Chujing several times, Jiang Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Mengyao was obviously panicked and had been thinking a lot these days. She even thought that if this went on, she would no longer listen to Jiang Chujing''s arrangement. "Don''t argue with me. This will only dy things!" Jiang Chujing was angry and didn''t have the mood to Jiang Mengyao knew that she had no ground to retort now, so she suppressed her anger and replied, "Zhang Lancheng''s condition is still the same. The hospital has already prepared to transfer her to another ce. Li Han came here this morning, but he left soon." "Li Han went there?" Jiang Chujing was a little surprised and then said nervously, "What did he do and what did he say?" "I don''t know." Jiang Mengyao frowned, "How dare I get close to him when he''s there? If he finds out, I''ll be doomed!" Li Han had been exerting pressure on the police to find Jiang Mengyao. For a long time, Jiang Mengyao had been living a life that was half vagrant. Although Jiang Chujing had transferred money to Jiang Mengyaost time, Jiang Mengyao did not dare to spend it recklessly. She wore rags that cost more than ten dors and lived in a suburban hotel, which did not require its clients to produce ID cards. She looked over ten years older. If others didn''t know her age, they would think she looked like a middle-aged woman! While Jiang Mengyao med all these on Shu Tian. If it weren''t for Shu Tian, she wouldn''t have lived like this! Everything she had hoped for in the past had fallen through. The only thing she wanted now was for Shu Tian to go to hell and then she could live a rich life abroad with the money! "Now, don''t worry. Since Zhang Lancheng has been transferred, let''s see what Li Han is going to do next and what ns he has. We''ll improvise ording to the circumstances then." Jiang Chujing calmed Jiang Mengyao down and also tried to persuade herself so. At this juncture, Li Han must not find anything. Otherwise, all ns would end up in vain. If Li Han was on guard against her, then he must have transferred Zhang Lancheng to a ce she didn''t know. In that case, she had to restrain herself. If it was just a coincidence, it might be a good opportunity for her. Jiang Chujing walked to the window with her cell phone and thought to herself that she could not be anxious or afraid now. It was absolutely a taboo for her to get panicked. "What kind of n are you scheming? I don''t know anything now. I''ll do whatever you ask me to do. I can''t do things for you for no reason. Let me know something!" Jiang Mengyao had lost her She knew nothing about what Jiang Chujing wanted to do, and all she could do was to wait and keep waiting. But it was still dangerous for her to dy for even one extra day. Hearing Jiang Mengyao''s questioning, Jiang Chujing pondered for a moment as if she was thinking about whether to tell her or not. After a long time, she finally said, "Go to the affiliated university of the First Hospital in J City and find a person named Chen Bo. I''ll give you his contact informationter. Just say DH23 and he''ll understand." "DH23?" Jiang Mengyao was puzzled, "What is this?" "You don''t have to worry about that. As long as you do as I say, Chen Bo will naturallye to see you." Jiang Chujing clenched his hand and said, "Don''t let anyone find out!" Jiang Mengyao took a look at the deste view around her and then gritted her teeth, "Okay, I see. I''ll do as you say." After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chujing deleted the call log on her phone and put it back in the drawer by the bedside. Just as she finished all this, the door of the ward behind her was suddenly pushed open from the outside. She was shocked and looked over in a panic. It was Li Han. Chapter 237 Chapter 237 A second ago she was on the phone with Jiang Mengyao, but he had walked in already... Overtaken with guilt, Jiang Chujing stammered, "Ha-Han, why are you here?" Li Han hadn''t nned toe here today, but he had received the notice that Shu Tian was here to print the medical records and documents from the hospital. He had rushed over, only to find that Shu Tian had left. Li Han found it strange that Jiang Chujing was avoiding his eyes, so he asked meaningfully, "What are you doing?" Jiang Chujing smiled and tried to calm herself down. "I wanted to go downstairs for a walk just now..." She broke off because Shu Tian''s face popped into her mind. She knew what distracted him the most, so she said, "By the way, I met Shu Tian in the corridor." Sure enough, when Li Han heard this, he was distracted and asked nervously, "What did you say?" "She was here to deal with things and happened to see me. We didn''t talk much. She just said... I''ll be sent away by you." Then Jiang Chujing bit her lips, pretending to be pitiful, as if she was embarrassed to say this. "If you don''t provoke her, she won''t say that to you." Li Han''s tone was firm. Although Jiang Chujing felt resentful to hear this, at least she had diverted his attention. In order to hide her true thoughts, Jiang Chujing had to say, "You know, our rtionship is strained..." She would rather admit that she was being weird because of Shu Tian than being found to have called Jiang Mengyao. "Chujing, don''t do anything that might disgust me. My tolerance is limited." Li Han walked to the bed and looked at the infusion set beside her as if this was the only way to calm his emotions. He was afraid that he would lose control and do something to Jiang Chujing, and she was weak and her condition would worsen. The room was quiet, and neither of them knew when they had be like this. He had been possessive about her and wanted many things from her, but those requirements and feelings had be a burden to him. "Someone is going through the formalities for your grandmother. After the examination tonight, she will be transferred to the Ling''s Hospital. She will be in the ward next to you so that you can take care of her." Jiang Chujing was shocked. "Wh-what?!" Just now, she was thinking whether he had found what she was up to and decided to transfer her grandmother, but he actually had her grandmother transferred to the Ling''s Hospital. In this way, it would be much easier for her to carry out her n. However, Li Han who didn''t know her intention thought she did not know about Zhang Lancheng''s conditions and determined to hide it from her as he was trying to make Zhang Lancheng live longer. "You can see Grandma at night." That''s great!" Jiang Chujing was so excited that she sat up straight. "Han, thank you. Thank you so much..." She was excited and overjoyed. Li Han knew that Zhang Lancheng and he were all she had now. Although he had no contact with Zhang Lancheng, he could not help but feel sad when he thought of what had happened all these years. He had had Jiang Chujing''s parents killed, and they had treated him like their own son, so it was his duty to take care of her and her grandmother and he couldn''t stop caring about her. Someone knocked on the door behind him, and Li Han said, "Come in." Ling Junze walked in with the folder and nodded at Jiang Chujing. He walked over and patted Li Han on the shoulder. "May I speak to you in private? I have something to tell you." Li Han nced at Jiang Chujing, making sure that there was nothing wrong, walked out of the ward with him, and went straight into his office. "I''m totally fine with you getting Zhang Lancheng here, but I have to make a few things clear to you." Ling Junze let out a deep breath. "First of all, she''s not in a good condition. She''s bound to die. It''s just a matter of time. No hospital will take her. I know you want to hide it from Jiang Chujing, but I still have to tell you that Zhang Lancheng has at most three months or more than a month if things got worse. You should be prepared for this." When Ling Junze received Li Han''s message today, he agreed instantly. The death rate of the Ling''s Hospital was always low, which was why so many business and political big shots hade here. One more case of death would not influence the hospital, but he was afraid that Li Han was taking a chance. Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Li Han nodded. "I know." "And if you ask to hide it from Jiang Chujing, I will get the medical team in charge to sign a confidentiality agreement. My employees won''t leak this, so you have to make sure you can hide it from her." "Okay, no problem." "That''s all. I''ll send someone over to take care of her at night. We will try our best to treat her. You can rest assured." "Okay." Li Han reached into his inner pocket of the suit and took out a box of cigarettes. "Can I have one?" Ling Junze looked at the faint dark circles under his eyes and sighed, "Go ahead. I''ll have dinner with Pei Yu tonight. Are youing? He often talks about you." Li Han opened the lighter, leaned forward, and lit the cigarette. He took a drag and slowly blew out the gray smoke. "Okay." Ling Junze was surprised but relieved. "Okay, see you in Red Club at eight o''clock." [...] They appeared in a VIP private room in Red Club. Li Han had always been the most punctual, but he waste today. "Sorry, I was in a meeting." After he finished speaking, he picked up the ss on the table and drank it in one gulp. "This is my apology." Pei Yu had never seen him like this before. He was confused and got excited. "Han,e on. I''ll drink with you. Let''s finish this and open some more. I''ve collected some great ones recently!" Instead of stopping Li Han, Pei Yu was actually offering to drink with him?! When Ling Junze saw this, he knew that something bad would happen, but what else could he say? He didn''t want to be the nket since he had invited Li Han here. He might let Li Han vent his emotions tonight. Therefore, for the first time in more than 30 years, Li Han was drunk and got unconscious. Although he could walk, he couldn''t think straight. Ling Junze stopped them and asked the club manager to arrange for a designated driver. Then he helped and dragged him into the car. "Go to Imperial Vi. Do you know where it is?" All the drivers knew them and nodded. "Yes, don''t worry. I will take Mr. Li home safely." Only then did Ling Junze wave his hand. He then watched the car disappear from his sight. What he didn''t know was that halfway through, Li Han woke up, looking out the window at the street scenery, got impulsive, and said, "Go to Red Garden Community." The driver gave a moment of astonishment and asked, "Mr. Li, what did you say?" "Red Garden Community." Very few people living in such an old neighborhood hired a designated driver, so after the driver input the destination on the navigation system, he confirmed again, "Mr. Li, is the ce right?" Li Han forced himself to open his eyes and take a look. He grunted a yes. [...] More than half an hourter, the car pulled up below Shu Tian''s condo. The driver turned to Li Han in the back seat and said, "Mr. Li, here we are." Chapter 238 Chapter 238 Li Han had closed his eyes to rest, but when he heard the sound, he opened his eyes. He was a little confused seeing the scenery around him, and It took him some time to figure out where he was. Then, he took out a stack of cash from his wallet and handed it over. "Let''s go." The designated driver was very happy. The money Li Han gave him was much more than what he earned a month at work. "Thank you, Mr. Li! Goodbye, Mr. Li!" Li Han had a headache and didn''t want to hear the designated driver''s voice. He frowned and waved at the designated driver, hinting the designated driver to leave. He finally stretched after the car was quiet down. Li Han had rarely been so drunk before. The car was filled with a strong smell of alcohol, mixed with the smell of men''s perfume, which was not very good. Li Han opened the car window regardless of the cold weather outside. However, when the cold wind blew in, not only he did not feel better, but the headache was aggravated. He frowned, simply opened the door, and stepped out. He leaned against the car door. He fumbled for a cigarette case, took out one, but identally dropped it on the ground. He was so upset that he took out another one and finally lit it. He went to the Red Club because he wanted to get drunk. That was the reason for him to be so drunk right now. However, what was funny was that he thought that he would forget Shu Tian if he was drunk. He didn''t expect that Shu Tian''s face was even clearer in his mind now. He had seen a sentence unintentionally, which said that when a person fell in love deeply, he would feel lonely. He did not take the sentence seriously, but now he understood it deeply. That was exactly what had happened to him. The man let out a chuckle as if he wasughing at himself or something else. The white mist rose from his mouth and quickly disappeared. In the middle of the night, a luxury car with a slender and handsome figure beside was eye-catching. Couples passing by all looked at him, wondering why such a man would be here. This was what Shu Tian saw when she came back. Why was he here? Subconsciously, she wanted to walk away, but when she saw the cigarette butts on the ground and his unsteady body, she was unable to move away. He had drunk a lot since it was impossible to see this man like this under normal circumstances. It was alreadyte at night. Did he drive here after drinking so much alcohol? Shu Tian was very anxious when this idea came up to her mind. She stepped forward and stood two steps away from him. The man did not raise his head at first as if he did not care who it was. It took him a long time to look at her, and he was obviously unhappy when he raised his head. However, he was shocked when he saw who the person was. How could it be her? Li Han stared at the figure. Just as Shu Tian thought he was going to rush over, the man lowered his head again. It was sote, and she didn''t know he woulde here. It must be an illusion. Because he missed her so much that he was hallucinating that she was here. Just as Li Han was mocking himself, the ''phantom'' stepped forward, "What are you doing here?" Her sweet voice was filled with anger and questioning, which he was familiar with. The man suddenly raised his head and he reached out to touch the woman''s cheek. Then, he realized that it was not an illusion. Shu Tian was indeed here. "... Shu Tian?" He called out her name in disbelief. Shu Tian''s heart ached too. She didn''t understand what he meant by torturing himself like this over and over again. If she didn''te backte today, did he intend to stay here all night? "Why didn''t you go home?" She asked in a calm voice. Li Han''s heart ached, "There''s no one at home that I want to see. So I don''t want to go home." She had left, and the Imperial Vi had be lifeless. Everything seemed to have returned to the time when he had not known her. He was lonely and no one understood him. He almost went crazy. He put the cigarette to his mouth and took a deep breath near his lips, hiding his trembling fingertips. "Can youe back?" He was not asking her but begging her. Shu Tian had always sealed all her affection for him in her heart. At this moment, when she saw him like this, she could not hide her feelings anymore. "Li Han, it''s not that I don''t want to go back to you. You know I love you in my heart, and I know you love me too. It''s just that we cannot trust each other anymore after experiencing so many things. With Jiang Chujing here, I can''t help but feel suspicious about you and her. I don''t want to be like this, but I can''t control myself." Women could not be rational when facing their beloved men. "You can be suspicious. I won''tin." He was smoking so fast and fiercely that he tried his best to suppress the surging emotions in his heart. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. "It''s easier for you to say than actually do it. We have learned from the past." At this point, Shu Tian paused, stepped closer to him, and let him hear her clearly. "Jiang Chujing fell into the swimming pool because of herself, not me. I remained silent not because I didn''t want to exin, but because I was disappointed at the fact that you suspected me." She smiled bitterly and shook her head, "You won''t believe me now..." "I believe you!" The man''s voice was tinged with eagerness, "It was my fault to suspect you. At that time, I didn''t have time to think about it carefully. Believe it or not, I always stand by your side from the bottom of my heart." After all, the two things that Shu Tian cared most about were Shu Changlei''s illness and Jiang Chujing falling into the water but Li Han didn''t trust her. Now that Li Han said he trusted her, she felt a little better. As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them looked at each other calmly. Neither of them spoke. There was no need to say anything as they knew what each other meant from eye contact. After a long time, perhaps because she had been standing for too long, Shu Tian could not help but shiver. Li Han threw away the cigarette at his fingertips, turned around, and opened the car door. He bent down to take out his coat and put it over her shoulder. Shu Tian refused, "No, wear it yourself." He only had a shirt on him. He must be very cold. She only said four words. However, Li Han felt warmed, "Tian..." His deep voice was even more attractive after he was drunk. Perhaps she was a little dazed by the smell of alcohol, Shu Tian opened the door of the main driver''s seat and said, "Let''s go. I''ll drive you back." Chapter 239 Chapter 239 The Red Garden Community was not close to the Imperial Vi. On the way back, neither of them spoke much. The man sat in the passenger seat with his eyes slightly closed, but he was actually not as calm as he looked. The woman beside him drove quietly. She kept her eyes on the road. Their faces were flickering under the streetlights outside the window, breaking the stillness in the car. There was a strong smell of alcohol in the car. After enduring this smell for a long time, Shu Tian could not help but mutter, "Can you get up the next day after drinking so much?" He raised his eyebrows without opening his eyes and said frankly, "I can''t." Shu Tian frowned, "What about thepany affairs?" "Humph," Li Han sneered, "Why should I care about them when I''m disappointed in love?" "..." Shu Tian was speechless. She didn''t expect that the sullen vibe could suddenly be broken by such words of Mr. Li. She continued to persuade him like a mother, "You have to. Thepany is yours. If you always get drunk in the middle of the night, it will dy your work. The employees will keep it in mind." Every time she saw him had drunk out of his mind, she would be displeased. This time, she finally got the chance to say it. Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Li Han opened his eyes and looked at the woman beside him, "I run thepany to earn money to support my family. Now my wife ran away. Why should I still go to work?" There was a trace of resentment in that deep tone, which gave Shu Tian goosebumps, but... Why was her heart beating a little faster? Since the quarrel, they hadn''t talked with each other normally for a long time, nor had this kind of bicker. Shu Tian suppressed the thought in her mind and tried to calm herself down. She pinched her lips and didn''t say a word to him again. Finally, the car reached the gate of Imperial Vi. The lights were burning in the vi, so it didn''t look bleak from the outside. She had no intention of entering the house. She turned off the car and called him, "Li Han, here we are." The man closed his eyes but did not fall asleep. When he heard this, he quickly nced out of the window. Then he moved his gaze to her face, which had a pointed chin, tender skin, and a pair of big dewy eyes. She was so charming. When one was fed, his sexual desires woulde up. Li Han suddenly thought about the way shey under him. She was pure, seductive, and enchanting. He turned his face away and rubbed his eyes. Then he left in a hurry as if he was escaping from something. Shu Tian was confused and gathered that she had provoked him again. She regretted that she sent him back in a moment of aberration. As soon as they got home, he pulled a long face. What a psycho! She got out of the car and turned to leave angrily. She realized that the car keys were still in her hand. She had to walk back and hand Li Han the car keys with a bad tone, Yours." The man stood in tipsy and gazed at her hand. Instead of picking up the key, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms. Hearing her exmation, he reached out to hold her waist and whispered in her ear, "Why are you so angry? I can''t help but get a hard-on when I see you. What kind of gentlemanly behavior do you expect?" "..." Shu Tian''s face was blushed as a cooked shrimp. She hurriedly pushed him, "Let me go!" Li Han loosened his grip and admired the blush on her face, "Come in. I''ll ask the driver to pick you up "No, I can go back myself..." "This is a suburb. How are you going to get back? Take a taxi or walk?" He seemed to be waiting tough at her. It was so stupid to expect to get his appreciation. Shu Tian looked up and was about to scold back at him, but she bumped into a pair of gentle eyes. She stood there in a daze. She had long known that this man was sharp-tongued with kind heart, but she hadn''t expected that he was so extreme in this. Even when he said something unrted to her, he could still have such a doting look. She suddenly remembered thosete nights at home or in the hospital, there was always a dark car parked downstairs where she was, and it stopped for a long time. Just like his eyes at this moment, if you dodged, you wouldn''t be able to find the love he was hiding in his eyes. How should he feel? Shu Tian''s heart was like a string plucked by a violinist, trembling slightly and reverberating loudly in gradual. "Li Han," She called his name seriously that she had never done before. A smile appeared on her face, which was firm but fragile, "Do you like me very much?" Her question was sudden and reasonless, but Li Han was connected with her. He cast down his eye, "I don''t." His cold voice was melting in the chilly night wind. Shu Tian froze. She wanted to turn her face away, but he grabbed her cheek and held it in his hands gently, "Like is an indulgence, love is restraint. I love you, and I can''t extricate myself." His tone was full of self-deprecation. He was not mocking his feelings but mocking himself, who had unknowingly fallen into it. "I had a failed rtionship before I met you. At that time, epting you was like asking me to tear my wound again, and I failed again. I want to break this rtionship, but I find that I can''t do it at all." She looked straight into his eyes and finally revealed her thoughts to him, "I don''t know what''s good and what''s bad. It''s a lie to say that I forgot you. I can''t forget you at all, but it''s hard for me to ept you again..." The little woman was only level with his shoulder. She stood in front of him and dissected word by word, "I don''t know how to continue to love you, but I can''t refuse you. I''m still back with you, right?" "Tian..." Li Han was moved. He looked at her tearful eyes as she said these words and was heartbroken, "It''s my fault. I won''t force you. Don''t cry..." Shu Tian wiped away the tears and let him see the determination in her eyes, "Since I don''t know what to do, I want to follow my heart this time. No matter what the ending will be, even if I will be betrayed again, I won''tin." Chapter 240 Chapter 240 Shu Tian''s rtionship with Li Han thawed a little. Although she was still cold to him, she didn''t continue to avoid him. Shu Changlei recovered well. Li Han was guilty of having involved the elders. He had people send a lot of things to the Red Garden Community. At first, Ye Lihua feared Shu Changlei would be angry, so she had thrown them outside. After a long time, the neighbors began to discuss, saying that these things were all expensive, and that they felt pity but no one dared to pick them up. Ye Lihua had no choice but to ask Shu Tian tomunicate with him, asking him not to send anything to them. "Okay, I''ll talk to him... I''m busy. I''ll call you back. Bye." Shu Tian hung up the phone and put her phone in front of the face of the man in the driver''s seat. "Did you see it? Did you hear it? I asked you not to send anything, but you didn''t listen. My parents won''t ept them." "I know they won''t." Li Han remained calm and said, "They were holding a grudge now, and it mightst for some time." Shu Tian was surprised. "But you still asked someone to send those things. Why?" He being rich didn''t mean he could waste money, "I sent those things because I felt guilty. I can''t visit them and apologize now. Just think of it as a way to make myself feel better." Although it was selfish to do so, he couldn''t think of a better way. It was thanks to his capability, talent, and intelligence that he had dominated the business world for so many years, but recently, he felt for the first time that he was useless when it came to dealing with Shu Tian''s parents. "You can stop it now. This will only make parents hate you more." After that, Shu Tian saw that his eyelids were lowered, and she felt a little ufortable. She said, "I''ll get you to meet each other when I have the chance." Li Han smiled ruefully, "Okay then." The atmosphere was a little depressing. Shu Tian started a new topic. "By the way, could you take me to the hospitalter?" "What are you doing there?" "A client of mine before I quit is at the Ling''s Hospital. I will go over and check in on him." This was what Shu Tian had been worried about the most. Li Han nodded and started the car, heading to the hospital. He then asked, "When are you going back to thepany?" Shu Tian who was looking down on her phone froze. She said in a cold voice, "I''m not going back." "Then are you going to stay idle? I haven''t approved your resignation, but have suspended you, so it''s not hard for you toe back..." "Since I handed in my resignation, I must have made up my mind." Shu Tian tilted her head to look at the street that shed past the window. "If I went back this time, even if I don''t care, others will The minute she handed in her resignation, she had never thought about going back. Li Han frowned, not understanding why she insisted. "I can help you if you work in HY Law Office. Things will be hard for you in otherw firms." "Li Han, I''m going to be twenty-five soon. I am a grown-up who can be responsible for own my life." Her tone was t, but her words were serious. "I know what I''m doing." Li Han knew she wasn''t easy to be persuaded. As much as he wanted her toe back to the HY Law Office, he did not force her. At this point, he needed to give her space to figure it out. Forcing her would only make her feel disgusted. The car pulled up in front of the inpatient department of Ling''s Hospital. Shu Tian opened the door and got out. Li Han also got out of the car. They walked to the front of the car. Shu Tian looked at Li Han in a suit and leather shoes, tightening her grip on her purse, and said in a low voice, "I''m going up." Then she raised her foot, but before she ced it down, her shoulder was held by his warm hands, and then she was pulled into an embrace. "You..." "I just want to hug you for a while." His voice was husky. He was wearing a ck tailored suit today. The fabric on his shoulders was a little wrinkled, and somehow Shu Tian was a little turned on. Shu Tian could not refuse him, because he didn''t do anything other than put his arms around her. However, she was more nervous and aroused than affectionate sex. After a while, he let go of her and his passionate gaze fell on her face. "Call me when you''re done." A gust of wind brushed past the hair on her forehead. Before she raised her hand, he had put it behind her ear naturally. For a moment, Shu Tian even thought that they were as intimate as before. Her heart was pounding, and she was a little flustered. She hurriedly replied to him and walked towards the entrance of the inpatient department. Behind her, the burning gaze followed her closely until the automatic door opened and closed. When she reached the corner, Shu Tian breathed a long sigh of relief. She was always nervous with him although she had known him for so long. Li Han didn''t retract his gaze until Shu Tian disappeared from his sight. Just as he was about to open the door and get in the car, he suddenly sensed a gaze. He looked up at the inpatient department, looking carefully at the windows, and finally, his gazended on the one whose curtains were shaking slightly. If it weren''t for his excellent eyesight, he wouldn''t have been able to see the movement. If he remembered correctly, this was Jiang Chujing''s ward. He frowned and sat in the car. He looked out through the window tint film, finding nothing unusual, but he had a feeling that someone was standing there just now. Was he too nervous? [...] Jiang Chujing sat on the hospital bed, covering her chest with her left hand, her face deathly pale. It was so close. He almost saw her. Fortunately, she was nimble enough, or Li Han would have seen her! Jiang Chujing could not help shivering at the thought of his eyes. She sat at the end of the bed for a long time before she stopped feeling flustered. However, now her mind was filled with the scene where Li Han and Shu Tian hugged. She had thought they wouldn''t make peace because of what had happened to Shu Changlei. Their love had rekindled faster than she thought. Thinking of Shu Tian, Jiang Chujing could not help but show a frighteningly ferocious face. "You forgive him even though your father was hurt. What a bitch!" She knocked the wall hard as if it were Shu Tian, and hatred filled her eyes. "No, I can''t sit here and do nothing." "I have to do something to prevent Li Han from being with that woman again!" Jiang Chujing''s chest heaved, and she got resentful. She took out the other phone and called Jiang Mengyao. As soon as she got through, she asked, "Have you got it?" Jiang Mengyao gloated when she heard the anxious voice which was vastly different from Jiang Chujing''s usual voice. Finally, she lost herposure. "I have." "Okay, find a way to put it in the southwest corner of the Ling''s Hospital''s backyard. I''ll get it." Jiang Mengyao couldn''t rest assured and asked, "Are there any surveince cameras?" "It''s a dead corner. There''s no surveince camera. I''ve checked it." "Are you sure?" Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. "What good is it for me to lie to you?" Jiang Chujing lowered her voice. "This will be over soon. You can leave here after this is done." This was what Jiang Mengyao had been longing for. The thought of starting a new life abroad made her excited. "Okay, I''ll put it there tomorrow afternoon." After that, she asked again, "This injection is highly toxic. What do you want to do with it?" Although she hated Shu Tian to the core, killing was too much for her. Jiang Chujing sneered, "Don''t worry. I won''t kill her. I''ll use this to frame her." Chapter 241 Chapter 241 Jiang Mengyao also knew that there was no way back at this point, so it was useless for her to talk too much. She had done everything she could, and the rest should be left to Jiang Chujing. She just wanted money and others had nothing to do with her. "Be careful. After you get the things, you have to transfer two-thirds of the money to my ount." "Don''t worry, I won''t owe you what I have promised you." Jiang Chujing agreed heartily without any hesitation, so Jiang Mengyao believed herpletely. Jiang Chujing had transferred her the money on time before, and she might not dy it this time. If Jiang Chujing dyed it, wouldn''t she be afraid of being exposed by Jiang Mengyao? They were now in the same boat. Thinking of this, Jiang Mengyao was more relieved that Jiang Chujing would not change her mind. However, she still underestimated the viciousness of this woman. Now Jiang Mengyao did not know that she had be a victim since the beginning of the n. [...] It was a little past seven in the evening. After finishing all the examinations and dinner, Jiang Chujing found an excuse to sneak into the back garden of the hospital. There were very few people here during the day, let alone at night. Ling''s Hospital was very strict in surveinces, but it was rtively ck in this area because it was not in the medical area and the surveince in the corner was in rush repair, and there was arge dead corner. No matter how strict it was, there would be a ce that was ignored. Jiang Chujing used this bug to sneak in sessfully. She searched the corner for a long time but could not find what she wanted. Seeing that nearly ten minutes had passed, she was anxious and was about to return with disappointment. Suddenly, her feet touched a heavy stone. She looked down and saw that the dark brown soil under the gray-white stone was obviously loosened. She squatted down and dug it. Not long after, her fingertips touched a cold tube-shaped ss. She quickly pulled it out. The cylindrical ss bottle was only as thick as the thumb, and the light yellow liquid inside was tightly sealed. Seen from the appearance, this was an ordinary small medicine bottle for infusion in hospitals and clinics, but only Jiang Chujing knew how scary this thing was. This amount was enough to kill an adult. She hid the small medicine bottle in her sleeve and clutched it in her palm. The cuff was just enough to block it. After putting away the soil on the ground again, she left quickly without dy. This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . In order to avoid the surveince area without looking suspicious, she went into the lounge, which was connected to the blind area, so it was as if she had juste out of the lounge. In order to observe these, Jiang Chujing had worked hard. She had wandered around the hospital countless times alone for observation with the excuse of recovery. When she finally returned to the ward, it was already 7: 30 pm. She took her phone, found Shu Tian''s number, and called her. However, she did not use her spare phone but used her usual number this time. The phone rang a few times before it was picked up. The voice on the other end of the phone sounded a little tired, "Hello?" "It''s me," Jiang Chujing said bluntly. Shu Tian was sitting on the sofa. When she heard the familiar voice, she immediately frowned and sat up. She looked at Ye Lihua and saw that she did not notice. She walked into her bedroom with the phone. She wanted to ask Jiang Chujing why she had her phone, but she held it back. It was not surprising that Jiang Chujing had her phone number. After all, Jiang Chujing was a meticulous woman. "When do Miss Jiang and I be so intimate?" Jiang Chujing didn''t care about her hostility at all. She had more important things to do, so she said what she had thought about countless times before, "I know you and Li Han are getting back together. Actually, I want to tell you something about Li Han and me. Now that you are reconciled, I might as well take this opportunity to tell you." Hearing this, Shu Tian didn''t take it seriously. She sneered, "That''s really a bother for you, Miss Jiang. But you don''t need to tell me." "I know you are hostile to me." Jiang Chujing spoke before Shu Tian hung up the phone, "I didn''t mean to trouble you this time. This is the hospital and I can''t trouble you. But I think there''s one thing you should know." "Okay." Shu Tian nodded, "Just talk on the phone." "No, you have to see it with your own eyes." Shu Tian stopped sneering, and she had a bad feeling. "What do you mean?" Sensing her mood swings, Jiang Chujing kept her in suspense and said, "Why was Li Han indifferent to what happened to your father? And why I couldn''t be transferred to another hospital? Don''t you want to know the reasons?" Shu Tian said in a deep voice, "If you want to arouse my curiosity and don''t want to say anything more, I''ll hang up." "It''s about my family, but only when you see it with your own eyes will you believe it." They fell silent for a while. Shu Tian took her phone away from her ear a little and let out a sigh of depression. She knew that she should not believe any of Jiang Chujing''s words, but they had not had a good talk after the ident. Things could not be solved by escaping. It was in the hospitalte at night and they were both women. In addition, there were many nurses. Jing Chujing was right. Nothing would happen. Just as Shu Tian was thinking, Jiang Chujing said something that made Shu Tian stop hesitate, "Besides me, Li Han, who you care about very much, is also in the hospital. Don''t you want to see him?" [...] Forty minutester, a taxi stopped at the entrance of Ling''s Hospital. The driver nced at the imposing hospital gate when he was giving her the change. He looked at Shu Tian in the rearview mirror and said, "Miss, is your family sick?" "No, I have something else to do." The driver was a little curious, but he didn''t ask any more questions. After Shu Tian out of the car, a cold wind blew. She wrapped in her coat tightly and was walking quickly inside when she suddenly received a call from Li Han. She looked at the caller on the screen for a long time before answering it, "Hello?" "Why did it take so long for you to answer? Where are you?" The man on the other end of the phone sounded a little anxious. He had been very sensitive these days, especially when she was out of his sight. Shu Tian nced at the elevator and didn''t want him to worry. "I''m downstairs of my home. I''m going up," she said. "Hmm." He replied calmly and added, "I''ll hang up after youe in." Shu Tian was nervous, afraid that he would find something. She panicked and regretted after telling the lie, "My phone is running out of battery. I''ll send you a message when I get there." Li Han was still at thepany and was about to say something when Zhang Bikun suddenly walked over and said, "Mr. Li, the video conference is about to begin." Shu Tian heard this and breathed a sigh of relief, "You go ahead and do your work. We can talk about it when you''re done." Li Han looked at Zhang Bikun and said, "Let me know when you get home." "Okay." After hanging up, Shu Tian was still flustered. She stepped forward and pressed the elevator. She could clearly see her flustered eyes in the mirror. The elevator arrived. She walked in and soon arrived on the floor that Jiang Chujing''s ward was on. At night, the hospital corridor looked especially empty. Fortunately, the lights were still bright. She walked over and knocked on the white door of the VIP ward. Soon, she received a response, "Come in." Shu Tian took a deep breath and tried to look calm. She pushed the door open and entered, noticing a thin figure sitting by the bed. Jiang Chujing looked at the woman walking in and gave a sinister smile. "Hi," greeted her. Chapter 242 Chapter 242 The door mmed. Shu Tian stood in the middle of the room and looked at her coldly. "What''s the matter? You can tell me now." "What''s the hurry?" Jiang Chujing''s calm look made Shu Tian angry. Shu Tian frowned. She didn''t want to be alone with her for too long. "You have half an hour." The more anxious she was, the happier Jiang Chujing became. Shu Tian''s anxiety will lead her to be trapped by her scheme. "Shu Tian, if it weren''t for Li Han, I would have taken to your straightforward personality." Shu Tian naturally did not feel that this was a heartfeltpliment. Her expression was as cold as ever as if she was watching Jiang Chujing''s monodrama. Jiang Chujing then pointed to the medical disinfection cab and said, "There''s a set of protective suits inside. Put one on. I''ll take you to meet someone." Shu Tian did not move. She stood there for a moment. There was distrust in Shu Tian''s indifferent eyes. "What exactly are you going to do?" "Rx, we are in hospital. What can I do to you?" Jiang Chujing got out of the bed, walked to the cab, and opened the door. She took out two white protective suits and changed into one of them. She looked at the other door in the room and said. "There is a person in the room who is seriously ill. We must wear it before we enter." Only then did Shu Tian notice that. She thought it was another room, but didn''t expect it to be connected to another ward. She reached out to take the protective suit, took off her coat, and quickly wore it. Neither of them spoke. One was scheming and the other was vignt. The only sound was made by the friction of the prospective suits. After wrapping herself tightly, Shu Tian straightened up and said, "Let''s go." She thought that Jiang Chujing looked strange, but she could not tell exactly what was strange. From the moment she entered, nothing had happened. Jiang Chujing secretly hid her cunning smile, walked to the door, and opened it. Before her was a It was also a ward, a little smaller than Jiang Chujing''s room, but it had a lot of equipment. On both sides of the bed, there were two huge machines shining cold silver lights. Their tubes were connected to the body on the bed. The cold liquid was continuously sent in. If it weren''t for the heartbeat on the screen next to the bed, she even felt that this man was dead. Beep, beep. It was eerily quiet, leaving only the heartless sound of machines. Shu Tian felt there was an electricity passed through her feet, clenching her hands tightly. Jiang Chujing, on the other hand, looked very calm and familiar with it. "This is my grandmother." Her words broke Shu Tian''s calm. She was surprised. "What?" "You don''t know yet. Although my parents passed away early, my grandmother has always been alive, but..." she looked at the person on the bed. "The situation is very bad. Her brain has died for many years. She is in a vegetative state, and has no consciousness or senses. She lives on the equipment in this room." Shu Tian stared at it for a long time before her eyes finally fell on the face in the white pillows. It was a face that was full of wrinkles and sickly paleness. Her facial features were so gaunt because of her age and illness. And her body under the quilt, although she did not see it directly, she could imagine how thin she was. And this person was Jiang Chujing''s grandmother. Shu Tian''s throat suddenly became a little dry. She looked away and did not want to look again. "Why are you telling me about this?" "You don''t understand?" Jiang Chujing raised her eyebrows and turned to face Shu Tian. "The reason why he let me stay in the country is that on the one hand, I haven''t fully recovered, and on the other hand, I have to take care of my grandmother. I told him before that I would apany her for a while, and he agreed." Shu Tian sneered, "So this is your new trick to stay by his side?" "I won''t be so vicious as to use my grandmother." Jiang Chujing said, but she had already killed Zhang Lancheng in her mind. "I just hope you know about it." To be honest, on the way here, Shu Tian imagined what Jiang Chujing would say, but she never thought that there was an old woman in another ward. Looking around the ward carefully, she observed that it was not a special ward, because all the medical equipment showed signs of having been moved here not long before. It should have been arranged after Jiang Chujing made this request. Shu Tian''s heart ached at the thought of what Li Han had endured during this period. His good intentions moved her, but they could not change Jiang Chujing at all. She was selfish by nature, extreme egoism, and would never consider his feelings. Unless she got this manpletely, she would never give up. Shu Tian suddenly couldn''t stay any longer. The atmosphere here was so oppressive that she couldn''t breathe. "This is your business. You don''t have to tell me." After saying that, she turned around and was about to walk out. When she took two steps, there was a rapid "Beep" sound suddenly arose. Shu Tian stopped and turned around to look. She saw a small red light on one of the machines. She was shocked and asked, "What''s going on?" Jiang Chujing was also looked serious. "Maybe it''s because of the instability of life. The system has detected it." As she spoke, she hurriedly took two steps back. "Where''s the injection bottle in my prospective suit?" Shu Tian frowned. Just as she was about to go out and call the doctor, her fingertips touched something hard in her pocket. She immediately said. "It''s with me!" Before she could react, Jiang Chujing said, "Inject the contents of the bottle into the drip bottle by the syringe in the disinfection box. I''ll call the doctor. Be quick!" "Jiang..." Before Shu Tian could call out her name, thetter had already walked out quickly. She was the only one left in the cold ward. Shu Tian took out the small medicine bottle from her pocket. The light yellow liquid was like an ordinary anti-inmmatory liquid medicine and looked harmless. The instruments were still ringing as if they were chasing her life, and the person in front of her would turn into nothingness in the next second. She had no time to think. No matter how much she hated Jiang Chujing, she could not just stand by and watch. Besides, it was Jiang Chujing''s grandmother and she would not kill herst family member. With this in mind, Shu Tian finally walked to the bedside. After taking out the injection and pushing the air clean as Jiang Chujing said, she took the liquid from the bottle and slowly injected it into the drip bottle. As she watched the yellow liquid dissolved little by little, the instrument stopped ringing in a few seconds. Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the screen beside her suddenly shed. Blood pressure, heart rate, all dropped at a rapid rate to a life-threatening level... "How, how..." Just as Shu Tian was panicking, the door behind her was opened again. This time, in addition to Jiang Chujing, there were two nurses and a doctor in a doctor coat. The doctor came over quickly. He opened Zhang Lancheng''s eyelids to observe her pupils. Then he looked at the instrument beside him. Suddenly, he nced at the injection on the cab and asked Shu Tian, "What did you do?!" "I, I didn''t do anything..." Shu Tian couldn''t react for a moment. She looked at Jiang Chujing and hoped This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . that she could say something. However, when their eyes met, she knew that it was toote. Because she clearly saw the evil smile on Jiang Chujing''s face after the trick seeded. She just wanted to kill Zhang Lancheng and framed her! Shu Tian''s body temperature was decreased. It was bone-chilling cold. Chapter 243 Chapter 243 Ignoring her argument, the doctor pressed a button at the bedside and pushed the patient to the emergency room immediately. Not long after, someone in a ck uniform rushed in and forcefully mped her arm and held her down on the ground. Her cheeks fell on the ground, and her cheekbones hurt as if they were about to crack. Only then did Shu Tian realize what happened and wriggle her body desperately, "Let me go, let me go!" "Stop moving!" The man''s voice was harsh, he was not someone who could easily deal with. Seeing she kept struggling, he also use more strength to control her as if he wanted to take off her arm. "I warn you, stop moving!" Shu Tian bit her lower lip and endured the pain. However, the cold sweat had already appeared on her forehead. She stubbornly raised her head and red at Jiang Chujing, who was still standing at the door. "The person you should arrest is her, not me!" This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. The tall men didn''t listen at all. They grabbed her arm and pulled her up from the ground. "Let''s go!" Shu Tian refused to give in, in such a difficult situation she suddenly felt having a particr strength. She stepped on the door frame and refused to let go. Just as the security guards were about to lift her up, Tian Sangsang hurried over. "Shu Tian, are you okay?" Seeing hering, Shu Tian was in relief. "Sang, Sang..." Tian Sangsang''s heart ached when she saw that Shu Tian was being held like that. Seeing that Shu Tian''s face was pale, she was even more anxious and angry. She stepped forward to remove the security guard''s hand. "You should not do this to her. Let go!" "It was Doctor Zhao who rang the bell, so we came to take her away. I advise you not to get involved if you don''t know exactly what happened!" Obviously, the security manager had a higher authority than an intern. Tian Sangsang was not afraid of being yelled at. She used her nails to scratch the back of the man''s hand. The man frowned and waved his hand immediately. As a result, she was thrown to the root of the wall, and the back of her head hit the wall with a ''bang'' sound. It was so hard that she could not stand up. "Sang!" Shu Tian looked even more anxious and wanted to help Tian Sangsang up, but she couldn''t move at all. Tian Sangsang felt dizzy. Before she could regain her senses, a pair of strong palms grabbed her arm, and then she was pulled up and pulled into a familiar embrace. "Are you okay?" When she opened her eyes, there was an obvious sense of anxiety on the man''s delicate and gentle features. She shook her head and her eyes turned red. "No, it''s okay. Shu Tian was beaten. Tell them..." "Okay, don''t cry. I''ll take care of it." Ling Junze stroked her frightened little face and looked carefully to make sure that she was not hurt. Then he looked at the security manager with a sharp look and asked. "Who gave you the right to throw the doctor to the ground?" The manager felt guilty and knew that he had provoked someone he shouldn''t have. He loosened his grip on Shu Tian a little. "I''m sorry, Director Ling. I didn''t expect to throw her out..." Obviously, not only did his apology not calm Ling Junze down, it made him even angrier. "Let go of your hand and get out of here immediately. If I see you tomorrow. I will let you live in the Ling''s Hospital for the rest of your life." "I know I was wrong, Director Ling. I..." "Get lost. Don''t let me repeat it." Ling Junze was determined. The security manager was so scared that he didn''t dare to make a sound when he saw Ling Junze being like that for the first time. He had to let go of Shu Tian and leave depressingly. Naturally, the rest of them no longer dared to make things difficult for Shu Tian. They let go of their hands and followed him out. Tian Sangsang immediately stepped forward and looked at the bruise on Shu Tian''s cheekbones with concern. "It''s so swollen. Let me disinfect it for you." Shu Tian gritted her teeth and spat out three words after a long time. "It doesn''t matter." Then, she looked at Jiang Chujing, who was standing by the side all the time. "In order to frame me, you risked your family''s life. Jiang Chujing, you are more vicious than I thought. No, you are inhumane. You are a demon!" Jiang Chujing changed her cunning look and said with tears which immediately fell out of her eyes. Her face was sad and innocent, and somehow she looked really aggrieved. "Shu Tian, how could you still say such things now. I kindly called you over to have a chat, but you injected the harmful medicine into my grandmother''s blood vessel. Are you still a human being?!" Tian Sangsang and Ling Junze roughly got the whole story from their words, but there was too much information. Not to mention Tian Sangsang, even Ling Junze felt it was a little unbelievable. Was this premeditated? He looked around the room and soon found the pillow on the cab with some residual medicine in it. It was obvious that the injection was not done properly. "Where did thise from?" Shu Tian looked over, her face as pale as paper. "It was in the medical box. Jiang Chujing asked me to take it out." "Nonsense!" Jiang Chujing roared, "I went out to look for a doctor. You took it out secretly!" After that, she was afraid that others wouldn''t believe her, so she said quickly, "There are surveince cameras in this room. Just take a look!" Ling Junze lowered his eyes and turned the syringe slightly to see some faint fingerprints on it. Jiang Chujing was right. There was no surveince in an ordinary ward, but the ward of Zhang Lancheng was different. She needed 24 hours of surveince, so there was a monitor here. Ling Junze ignored her and turned to look at Tian Sangsang. "Miss Jiang will stay in the ward. Someone would look after her. Sang, take Shu Tian to the lounge first." Tian Sangsang nodded and took Shu Tian''s trembling hands. "Don''t worry, leave it to me." After Ling Junze walked out of the ward, he immediately called Li Han. "Han, something bad happened to Zhang Lancheng!" At that time, Li Han was having a video conference with countless shareholders in the conference room. Hearing the news, he quickly asked Zhang Bikun to stop the meeting. He walked to the french window and said in a serious voice, "What''s going on?" "I don''t know how to tell you the whole story. Now that she''s in the emergency room, the situation... Isn''t very optimistic. You have to be prepared, and-" at this point, Ling Junze suddenly stopped, as if he tried to find a way to tell him the whole story. Li Han rarely saw him hesitate like this. Something serious must have happened to make him so. Li Han started to have a bad feeling. "What''s wrong?" Ling Junze gritted his teeth and then let go, but he couldn''t say it directly. "Come to the hospital. Shu Tian is here too, and Jiang Chujing." After saying this, Li Han felt as if a heavy iron block was suddenly on his heart, which made him breathless. He clearly remembered that half an hour ago, he was still on the phone with Shu Tian. What did she say? She was downstairs and her phone was about to run out of battery. She was about to go upstairs. But now Ling Junze told him that she was in the hospital and in the meantime something happened to Zhang Lancheng. All of these were terribly weird. Li Han picked up his phone and turned around. He walked quickly to the door under Zhang Bikun''s shocked gaze, while pushing open the heavy door of the conference room, "I''ll go over now." Chapter 244 Chapter 244 "Does it hurt?" Tian Sangsang took the disinfectant cotton swab and gently rubbed it on Shu Tian''s cheek. "It''s swollen and there''s still some congestion. Don''t touch it with your hand. I''ll ice it for you "I''m fine, Sang." Shu Tian smiled faintly and her eyelids lowered slightly. "How can I care about this now?" Tian Sangsang paused. Seeing that Shu Tian had been trembling unconsciously since she entered the lounge, Tian Sangsang felt sympathetic. She took the anti-inmmatory spray and sprayed it on Shu Tian''s skin, and then she couldn''t help but ask, "What happened just now?" What happened? Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Shu Tian thought about what had happened tonight and didn''t know what to say. She also wanted to know what was going on, but no one could tell her about it. Seeing that Shu Tian was silent, Tian Sangsang frowned slightly. "... Where did that injectione from?" Based on Tian Sangsang''s judgment over the years, as an important patient in ICU, Zhang Lancheng would never have any external drugs in the ward. It was obvious that the key to the matter was the injection. "The syringe is from the medical kit and the medicine inside..." Shu Tian paused and thought about it carefully. Jiang Chujing had been nning it from the beginning. From the moment Shu Tian put on the istion suit, she rose to the bait. Tian Sangsang wanted to ask more, but at this moment, the door of the lounge was suddenly pushed open forcefully from the outside and a gust of wind came from the door. Before she could see it clearly, a dark figure rushed up to her. Li Han looked gloomy, his chest heaving violently, his eyes fixed on Shu Tian''s red and swollen face. The questions he wanted to ask all turned into a sentence in this nce, "Are you hurt?" Shu Tian burst into tears. Those unspeakable emotions weaved into a dense and imprable that choked her. It was not until the moment she saw Li Han that she realized how scared she was. "Li Han, I don''t know. It wasn''t me. It really wasn''t..." Her voice trembled so violently, which showed how helpless she was just now. Tian Sangsang''s eyes got wet. Nothing weighed much than the words of her loved one. Li Han clenched his hands into fists, afraid that he couldn''t help but hold her in his arms. "Didn''t you say you were at home? Why did youe to the hospital?" "Jiang Chujing called me and asked me toe over. I was already at the hospital when I called you. I didn''t tell you because I was afraid you would be worried..." "Did I tell you not to contact Jiang Chujing in private?" He was angry, not that she made her own decisions, but that she didn''t take his words seriously. He was afraid that she would fall into a trap. "I didn''t know this would happen..." Shu Tian couldn''t continue in the middle of speaking. She could only hold back her tears by biting her lower lip. His eyes fell on her tears. Li Han took a deep breath, suppressed the anger caused by anxiety, and turned to Ling Junze. "Where''s Jiang Chujing?" "She''s still in the ward." Ling Junze turned slightly. "Are you going over now?" Li Han pondered for a moment, and he looked serious. He looked around the lounge, looked at them one by one, and finally stared at Shu Tian. He looked at her for a long time before he slowly said, "Go to the monitoring room first." As he spoke, his deep eyes were fixed on her. He was observing her expression and even her slightest movement. But fortunately, after he said this, she was calm, and her pupils did not change because of emotional fluctuations. Li Han was inexplicably relieved and reached out to hold her hand, which had been trembling since he entered the door. "Don''t be afraid. I''m here." Shu Tian paused for a moment, then held his hand even tighter, and nodded with red eyes. "Okay." [...] The three of them went to the monitoring room together, and Ling Junze called the security manager who pinned Shu Tian to the ground. The matter had just happened not long ago, so it didn''t take much time for them to find the surveince. The Ling''s Hospital''s surveince only had pictures without sound. This was the respect for patients, and it was the same for patients in the ICU. Looking at the ck and white screen on theputer, Shu Tian didn''t find anything wrong at first, but when she found out that the surveince only showed Zhang Lancheng''s ward, not Jiang Chujing''s, she was sweating. Tian Sangsang looked at Shu Tian''s pale face and whispered worriedly, "Are you okay?" No, she was not good. Shu Tian seemed to be frozen in ce. On the screen, she and Jiang Chujing walked in wearing the same istion suits and the two of them stood in front of the bed and talked about something. Everything was normal, but soon something unusual happened. Jiang Chujing took a step back and walked out of the ward. Shu Tian was the only one standing there. Shu Tian found that she took a few steps towards the head of the bed on the screen, then opened the medical kit and took out the injection. She took out a bottle from the pocket of the istion suit, extracted the medicine with unskillfully, and finally put it into Zhang Lancheng''s drop bottle... Then, the rm rang, and security personnel and medical personnel rushed in together. She was pressed to the ground like a suspect caught on the spot. With a click, it was paused. The person in the monitoring room pressed the pause button and said calmly, "Director Ling, Mr. Li, that''s all. Do you need to see the rest?" No one spoke, and no one answered. The surveince room was eerily quiet. After a long time, the security manager who was standing at the end suddenly said, "Look, I''m not wrong. It''s her! I rushed in and saw her, and she was holding a syringe in her hand. Director Ling, if you don''t believe me, you can wait for Doctor Zhao to finish the operation and ask him. He must have seen it too, so he pressed the emergency call button!" The security manager tried hard to prove that he had caught a bad person who wanted to kill someone, not a good person. "Really?" Li Han sneered. His deep eyes were now even more terrifying. No one knew what he was thinking, but the atmosphere was extremely tense in the room. Li Han stood up and walked slowly towards the security manager, standing there in a suit and tie. He was proud and full of nobility, but his next move was shocking. Li Ha punched the security manager hard on the face. There was a slight click and the bone of the security manager''s nose was dislocated. Li Han walked to the security manager again and pulled him up by the cor. "You''re such a genius, huh?" The security manager''s face was covered in blood. He met Li Han''s fierce gaze and pleaded to Ling Junze in panic, "Director Ling, help me, help me!" Although Ling Junze disliked the security manager, he was his employee before today, and in the monitoring room, and he couldn''t allow Li Han to act recklessly. With Li Han''s current psychological state, it was possible for him to do anything. Just as Ling Junze was about to dissuade Li Han, a petite figure had already stopped Li Han before Ling Junze could take a step. Shu Tian grabbed Li Han''s arm to stop him from taking any actions and shouted, "Stop. It has nothing to do with him!" Li Han''s face was grim and frightening. He didn''t even look at her when he heard this, and he stared at the security manager. Then his eyes were suddenly bloodshot and he was extremely emotional. Li Han raised his hand to push her away. Shu Tian''s tears, which she had just held back, began to flow again, and with a desperate cry, she roared like a cub on the verge of despair. "If you don''t believe me, you can beat me up. You''re a coward to beat irrelevant people!" Her words sessfully stopped Li Han. Li Han''s fist was suspended in the air, containing a terrifying force. Tian Sangsang covered her mouth, afraid that she would scream out of fear. She clearly saw that Li Han was breaking down, and she was afraid that he would hurt Shu Tian... Chapter 245 Chapter 245 Ling Junze grabbed her by the shoulder, pulled her into his arms, blocked her view with his chest, and said in a low voice, "Keep yourself down." "But..." "Shut up!" Tian Sangsang was speechless. Shu Tian opened her eyes wide and looked up at the man in front of her. Her bright eyes were filled with tears and sadness. "Li Han, I didn''t do it. Don''t do this, okay?" She said that in such a weak voice that it sounded like she was actually begging rather than persuading him. She really, really wished he could believe her... "You didn''t do it?" Li Han finally had a reaction. He looked at her with cold eyes. He shook off the security manager''s neck and stood up to point to the picture on theputer screen. "Okay, If you can exin to me why these pictures existed, I will choose to believe you." Shu Tian opened her mouth, but she couldn''t make a sound. How could she exin? Saying that Jiang Chujing framed her? Or saying that the whole thing was a setup by Jiang Chujing? Shu Tian did not know where to start and stood still in a panic. The only hope in his heart faded away in her silence, and instead, he had a huge panic. Yes, he was panicking, fearing that she had really caused all this herself and that she had resorted to retaliating against him and Jiang Chujing in such a way. "Why, you can''t even exin it?" He smiled, then roared in frustration, "Why don''t you speak? Shu Tian, you said I didn''t believe you? Heh, do you you know that even if you make up a lie, I, Li Han, will believe you!" He grabbed her shoulder with both hands and shook her back and forth as if he was about to crush her. "Say something!" Looking at his bloodshot eyes, Shu Tian slowly closed her eyes, and spoke in despair. Shu Tian told him exactly what had happened tonight from her receiving the call to entering the hospital, her wearing the istion suit that had long been tampered with to Jiang Chujing insinuating that the bottle of medicine was fatal. "You asked me what happened?" Shu Tian burst into tears and spoke with all her strength. "Why don''t you ask Jiang Chujing how did she flow under the radar and why she wanted to kill me..." Ling Junze looked at the two of them who were in grief. At this time, Li Han had almost lost reason, so it was unrealistic to rely on him to find out what was going on. Ling Junze was the only bystander who still had reason left. "You mean, you received a call from Jiang Chujing to the hospital, and she set all this up?" This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . "Yes, it is she..." Before Shu Tian could finish speaking, Ling Junze''s phone in his pocket suddenly rang. The crisp ringtone was especially abrupt at this moment. He frowned. It was Zhang Lancheng''s attending doctor, who called. Ling Junze quickly answered, "The operation is over? How''s the situation over there?" With one sentence, everyone''s eyes were focused on Ling Junze, only to find that he turned increasingly pale. He hung up in a hurry without saying more words. Looking up at Li Han''s cold eyes, he felt as if his throat had been grabbed. Being a doctor for so many years, he had long been used to partings in life or death, but he had never been as speechless as he was now. Tian Sangsang''s heart sank when she saw his expression. She tightened her grip on the clothes around his waist. "What''s wrong?" "Zhang Lancheng...The rescue failed." The words rang in her ear. It was so light and weightless, but it made everyone breathless. Even Tian Sangsang, who had nothing to do with this matter, felt it. Li Han''s adam''s apple moved uncontrobly twice, his deep-set eyes slowly closed, and his eyebrows were knitted together. Shu Tian wished he could say something, but after waiting for a long time, she heard thest thing she wanted to hear. "Now, you are telling me that Jiang Chujing killed her only family in order to set you up?" If Zhang Lancheng had been alive, it would be easy to work the matter out. But now it came to a dead end. Shu Tian took two steps back unsteadily and barely managed to keep her feet with one hand on the table behind her. Why didn''t you believe me died away on her tongue. Yes, how could she convince him? It was she who lied and was captured by the surveince camera. She was unable to defend herself. It was so stupid of her that she failed to realize she had been an object of Jiang Chujing''s maniption. Would Jiang Chujing have killed her own family for setting Shu Tian up? No one would be so vicious. Not a human being. However, only Shu Tian knew that Jiang Chujing was scarier than Satan. Jiang Chujing had killed Zhang Lancheng indirectly with her hand. But how could she make Li Han believe all this? Shu Tian smiled bitterly. "You think it''s funny, don''t you?" She looked up at him with a firm and fragile look in her eyes. "But that''s the truth. I didn''t kill anyone. It was not until the moment I came here today that I knew there was someone called Zhang Lancheng. Jiang Chujing was so vicious that she even killed her family to bring me down..." "Enough." Li Han suddenly interrupted her. It wasn''t that he didn''t want to hear it, but that he couldn''t listen to it. Her voice, Jiang Chujing''s voice, and the news of Zhang Lancheng''s death just now were mixed up together... It was too much for him. Shu Tian seemed to be shocked by his low roar and forgot to continue crying. She looked at the man in front of her in a daze. There was a dead silence again. Suddenly something hit her and being nervous, she looked down at her twisted hands. "Okay, I won''t say anything. I won''t say anything..." "I''ll go see Zhang Lancheng first." Li Han wanted to bend down slightly and raise her face, telling her not to cry and not to cry so sadly and desperately at him. But his body seemed to be frozen, making him unable to bend at all. He could only raise his hand to caress her cheek and wipe the tear-stained face dry. In just two seconds, the dry palm of his hand moved away, and the door behind her opened and then closed. He left. Shu Tian seemed to be drained of all her strength in a moment. She slid down the table to the ground and couldn''t help crying. Ling Junze patted Tian Sangsang on the shoulder. "Calm her down. I''ll go with him and check it out." "Okay." Tian Sangsang walked to Shu Tian and hugged her. Her heart ached to see Shu Tian like that. "Shu Tian, stop crying. I believe you. We all believe you." Shu Tian was such a nice person. It was impossible that she killed someone. Even if the evidence was stacked against Shu Tian, Tian Sangsang would not believe it. Tian Sangsang keptforting Shu Tian. "Mr. Li must believe you too, but it happened so suddenly. So you have to give him some time to process this. Don''t worry too much. The truth wille out soon." Shu Tian shook her head. "Sang, I''m so scared. Not only am I afraid that Li Han won''t believe me..." Tian Sangsang was slightly confused. "Then what are you afraid of?" Shu Tian closed her eyes and couldn''t answer. Of course, she feared that Li Han distrusted her. But the real fear from the bottom of her heart was that in the end, she would not be able to prove her innocence. Chapter 246 Chapter 246 When Li Han arrived at the emergency room, all the medical staff were still there. It was the first time that a patient died on the operating table because of an "ident" since the This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . establishment of the Ling''s Hospital. ording to the hospital''s regtion, it was considered a first- ss ident. Ling Junze looked grim, while the man behind him was even more gloomy, whose handsome face was almost twisted. Li Han walked to the operating table where all the instruments were still attached to Zhang Lancheng. However, there were no signs of life left in her. Zhang Lancheng was dead. The surgeon Doctor Zhao was duty-bound and could only stand up. "I''m sorry, Director Ling, Mr. Li. I failed to save her." He bowed slightly to them and exined, "The cause of death is the injection of barbiturates and etamste." Ling Junze became serious and was familiar with these two ingredients. To be exact, people who learned medicine knew them well. Barbiturates were one of the anesthetics that could make one get unconscious in a short time, while etamste caused blood coagtion. Thebination of the two ingredients could immediately end one''s life, even without causing any adverse reactions. Half a minute was possible for people to lose their vital signs. If they were added with the chloride, it meant Euthanasia. The cause of death was bizarre and shocking, which turned a medical ident into a murder. Moreover, it was Shu Tian who had been responsible for the injection. Li Han felt the subtle change in the atmosphere. Instead of examining Zhang Lancheng on the table, he turned around and asked Ling Junze, "Then is it a wrongful death?" Ling Junze nodded seriously. "Yes." Hearing it, Li Han, expressionless and grim, looked straight at the medical staff beside him. "Don''t tell anyone else about it, including the death without my permission." Ling Junze frowned and was about to stop him. "Han, it vites..." "I know." Li Han interrupted Ling Junze firmly and added, "I need to copy the surveince video." Ling Junze was shocked. "It''s a serious business to secretly copy or delete the hospital surveince records..." Ling Junze didn''t finish his words and knew the reason why Li Han dealt with this matter in this way. Li Han and Ling Junze''s eyes met. Having known each other for so many years, they understood each other with eye contact. Without saying anything, Li Han seemed serious and firm. "Junze, do you trust me?" Li Han knew clearly what it meant to take the surveince video from a private hospital''s ICU, even the one which recorded a serious ident. Without implicit trust, no one would have dared to agree to the request. Even Ling Junze who highly trusted Li Han was hesitating. As a result, when Li Han asked Ling Junze, thetter had no idea of the answer. It was normal not to agree with the request. After all, Ling Junze might be regarded as a lunatic if he was willing to give the video to Li Han. Ling Junze looked straight at Li Han, trying to see through him. There is a trace of pain, anxiety, and shock in Li Han''s eyes. In addition, there was a sense of determination andmitment. Ling Junze had seen a simr expression on Li Han''s face before. Five years ago, when epting the important case that made him a renownedwyer, Li Han had exactly the same expression as today. Li Han just wanted to find out some clues for Shu Tian. Thinking of it, Ling Junze nodded in agreement. "Okay." Doctor Zhao, a witness, was shocked when hearing this. "Director Ling, this... This is not in line with our rules and regtions. Besides, I did see that woman..." "What you see may not be true." Ling Junze turned around. "Your eyes can bring you the truth and at the same time, mislead you." "But..." "It has not been settled yet. You are not allowed to reveal the news to anyone else, for none of you can afford it if anything uncontroble happens." Ling Junze was as serious and strict as usual in meetings, but only he was aware of how much cold sweat he had. "It''s not a threat. It''s for your good. It will finally have an end." Hearing the words, the staff was silent. Although Doctor Zhao was thinking seriously about it, he trusted Ling Junze and finally made concessions. However, some things could be hidden, while others would finally be revealed. Before Li Han got the copy, Jiang Chujing had already called the police. It was a piece of breaking news. More than a medical ident that caused Zhang Lancheng''s death, it happened in the Ling''s Hospital, the powerfulpetitor of many public and private hospitals. Therefore, the "unexpected opportunity" was indeed a huge surprise. Now the opportunity hade, no one would sit back. On that day, the hospital was packed, surrounded by arge number of reporters. Jiang Chujing had been in the ward since the incident. When Li Han pushed the door open and entered, she was sitting by the bed looking out the window in a daze. Hearing the voice, she turned around after a while. "Han, you''vee..." "Did you call the police?" Li Han looked pale. After only half a day, the man seemed to have aged a few years. The woman replied frankly, "Yes." Li Han stared at the pale and sickly face, with a strong hatred welling up in his heart. "Why?" "Why?" Jiang Chujing was out of control. "Shu Tian killed my grandmother. Shouldn''t I call the police to arrest her? Tell me what I should do, hmm?" "It is under investigation, so it is useless." "Will you help me? You love Shu Tian so much and always protect her. You will only defend her and conceal my grandmother''s death! You will not think about me at all, never!" Jiang Chujing yelled, trying to vent her anger. After all, she was responsible for it as well, and Zhang Lancheng''s death had affected her. Li Hanughed, scaring Jiang Chujing. With her eyshes trembling violently, she looked at him uneasily. "What are youughing at?" Li Han just smiled. He approached Jiang Chujing slowly, about one fist away from her. Suddenly, the smile disappeared and Li Han looked up and pinched her chin. "What did you just say? Repeat it." Jiang Chujing''s jaw was about to dislocate because of his grip. She was so pained that she couldn''t exin it clearly. Instead, she could only speak word by word with difficulty,... "Shu Tian killed my grandma." "Hehe," Li Han sneered and flung her body away. Seeing her stagger, Li Han looked coldly at the woman. "This news was kept to be a secret this morning and you called the police. Good. Tell me, how did you know that Zhang Lancheng was dead?!" Chapter 247 Chapter 247 It only took half a day for the news to spread all over the city. Although it had nothing to do with him, it involved Ling Junze and the Ling''s Hospital, which was thest thing he wanted to see. At this moment, the copy of the CCTV footage was a hot potato. He could neither throw it away nor keep it with him. If he threw it away, he would put Shu Tian in a difficult situation. If he kept it himself, Ling Junze would be the one that was responsible. Either way was not what he wanted. Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Originally, he only needed to pull some strings to stall for a time from the police, but now because of Jiang Chujing''s phone call, everything was in a mess. Besides, he wanted to know how could she be so sure that Zhang Lancheng had already died. It stood out a mile that Jiang Chujing was in a panic. Under such circumstances, no matter how superb her acting skills were, it was impossible for her to conceal her emotions. It was also because of this that she did not continue to cover up the truth. Instead, she deliberately distorted the truth, "Yes, I just know. Because I saw Shu Tian holding the injector. If my grandmother was not dead, why didn''t you let me see her, let alone the fact that she was already in poor health!" "Well, then tell me why did you call someone with ulterior motives to the hospital in the middle of the night?!" After all, it was Jiang Chujing who arranged the meeting. "I didn''t know she would be so crazy. I just wanted to make it clear to her that I wanted to use this as an excuse to get her out, but I didn''t expect..." Jiang Chujing burst into tears. She cried so pitifully as if she had lost the most important person in her life. "I didn''t expect her to be so vicious that she wouldn''t even leave an elderly be!" "Vicious?" Looking at her tearful face, Li Han felt more ironic than pityful. "I''ll find out the vicious criminal." "Li Han!" Seeing that he was about to leave, Jiang Chujing roared. But the man was determined to leave. She rushed forward and hugged his back, pressing her face against his. "I have already lost my parents because of you, and now I have to bid farewell to myst family because of the person you love. As long as you had anypassion, you shouldn''t have treated me like this!" [...] "You suspect I am the one who has killed my own grandmother?" Jiang Chujing chuckled. She smiled so helplessly and pitifully that she had already turned herself into the victim in her heart, and Shu Tian the perpetrator." No matter how much I hate her and however vicious she is, how can I kill my family? I''m human too! Now my grandma has gone. Is there anything wrong with my feeling heartbroken, sad, and angry, and wanting to expose Shu Tian? I just want justice!" Jiang Chujing was right in every word of these words, but it became a knife stabbing in Li Han''s heart. She aimed everything at Shu Tian and med everything on her. How could he believe that Shu Tian was a murderer? When he had seen Shu Tian for the first time, he had known clearly that she was pure and beautiful, iparable. Her eyes were curved withughter, and when she cried, the crystal tears never stop rolling, which made his heart skip. A vicious person would not have such a pair of moving eyes. How could he not believe Shu Tian when she cried and told him? Li Han broke away from the woman behind him. He didn''t even look at her. He just tilted his face slightly, like a charity. "I''ll find out the truth. As for the death of your parents... They did die because of me. I owe a duty to them, but not to you." "I''m their daughter. Why don''t you owe me a favor?" Jiang Chujing was cut deep by his words. The death of her parents was the biggest blow to her life. "How dare you say such things so lightly? They are my flesh and blood. You have no idea what their death means to me!" This was the first time in so many years that Jiang Chujing had said these words so bluntly. It was not because that she did not care, but because she had forgotten to hate under Li Han''s care for a long time. Now, his words rekindled the hatred buried in her heart. "If they were still alive, they wouldn''t let me live like this: staying in the same room every day, unable to go anywhere or see anything. You med me for pestering you, upying you, and even falling in love with you, but I didn''t want my life to be like this! Except you, there is nothing in this world that I can¡®t bear to part. How could I live without you!" They were destined to be bound and torture each other. Unless someone left forever, they would continue to pester each other to the end. Li Han felt like carrying a hundred times the weight of the load. He was like an old man walking alone in the desert. His back was bent and his footsteps were unsteady. He had thought of giving up countless times but had to continue moving forward. He was so, so tired. Jiang Chujing was still crying, but Li Han did not stop. He opened the door without even looking back. As the door was locked with a "click", it was followed by a brief calm. His heart was beating fast, and so was his pulse. His blood was throbbing in his limbs. He was anxious to find something to bnce the qi and blood. Li Han walked quickly into the elevator. He did not know how many steps he had taken and how many turns he had made. He only knew that when he opened the door and saw the familiar face, he could no longer resist the force in his body. Looking at the man walking towards her with red eyes, Shu Tian was a little dumbfounded. "Why are you... Mmm!" Before she could finish speaking, a dark shadow appeared in front of her. The man''s cold thin lips pressed against hers, making her soft lips twist between his teeth. He kissed her so fiercely as if he wanted to swallow her whole. He didn''t care when his teeth hit the corner of her mouth several times. Shu Tian could hardly breathe on her own at that moment. She was like a stranded fish, and he was her seawater. She could only breathe when he got close to her, so she could only follow him. In an extremely tense mood, it was useless to say anything. Only by feeling each other''s existence so closely could they get some breath. They were too lonely and sad. The unspeakable pain could only be relieved when they hugged each other. Li Han was sweating profusely as if he had been soaked. His coat was unbuttoned at some point, and his shirt was drenched. He never let go of the woman in his arms and pushed her to the bed with such gentle force. "Tian, Tian..." He called her name so intimately, but Shu Tian could hear the helplessness and bitterness in it. He was asking her, "Tian, what should I do about you? Are you the one who... Shu Tian knew everything but could not ease the pain he felt. The water-like tolerance was also like a soft trap. She did not know what to do. Outside, countless cameras with long and short lenses were aimed at the magnificent hospital building, and those cold peeping eyes were trying to find the "truth" they wanted. In the room, Shu Tian turned into a pool of water, a feather, and whatever he liked, and tried tofort the man who was about to copse. Love affairs between men and women often went straight to the heart, and a happy exchange also hit the bottom of Shu Tian''s heart. Yes, since he was already so tired, why would she force him harder? After some time, Shu Tian gradually calmed down. She endured the pain and picked up her clothes to put on. Recently, she had lost a lot of weight and looked even taller. Standing in front of him, she looked like a cold pine bamboo. So when she said this calmly, he could no longer pretend to be calm- "I''ll go to the police station." Chapter 248 Chapter 248 Li Han jumped to his feet,pletely thunderstruck. He felt like he could still feel her gentle touch, but what did she say now? Going to the police? He tried to calm himself down and asked her, fighting his panic, "What are you going to do there?" "Surrender?" Shu Tian was not nervous at all. She even smiled after saying that. "I wouldn''t say that. I will cooperate with the investigation." The man''s sharp, knife-like gaze fell on the fair face in front of him. How could she? One second she was deeply involved in the whirlpool of love, but the next she could utter such heartless words. Li Han gasped and felt anxious again. He leaned over to click open his cigarette case, revealing his strong muscles from under the quilt, and lit a cigarette. He puffed smoke from his sexy lips, his voice as cold as ice. "Do you know what it means to go there at this juncture?" Shu Tian nodded knowingly. "I do." Li Han snorted when he heard such a straightforward answer. ncing meaningfully at the woman, he said, "Are you kidding me?" "No, I''m serious." Shu Tian blinked, and her eyes glittered with a trace of fear. "But I believe in you." "You should believe in yourself too." "We can''t carry on like this. It''s not good for you, me, Doctor Ling, or the hospital." Shu Tian took out her phone from her pocket. Her badly trembling fingertips betrayed her emotions. On any website she opened, she could see this matter as the headline. She handed the phone over to him and said, "We can''t bury this news." In just half a day, it became the talk of the town. If they continued to suppress the news, everyone would be implicated and Li Han would have to bear the brunt. Thest thing Shu Tian wanted was to see him get into trouble because of her. This was no small matter. This was a homicide case. Li Han looked at the website page, which was full of gimmicks: a catchy title and photo coges showing the Ling''s Hospital and an image of Ling Junze with mosaics. A sneer flitted over his face. Then he threw the phone out... Bang! Click! The phone smashed against a wall, making a loud noise. As a result of the crash, it immediately deformed,nded plonk on the ground, and broke into three or four pieces. The screen scattered debris all over the floor. Even the wall was dented. It was clear that he had employed a lot of force. Shu Tian didn''t expect him to fling the phone directly. She was shocked. "This is not helpful at all!" She roared, her eyes turning red-rimmed." I don''t want to see you like this! The truth will speak for This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . itself. Justice has long arms and I believe the police will find out the truth. Even if they can''t, I still have you! Li Han, I''m indeed scared, but this is the best choice. I dare to do it because I know you''ll prove my innocence and take me home!" If there was any other choice, she wouldn''t go to the police. She was afraid too, but things had already happened. As the person involved, she had to shoulder her responsibility. She couldn''t just go into hiding and let others bear it for her. Shu Tian was betting her future on her trust in this man. Li Han fell silent because of her words. He clenched his fists tightly, his veins bulging. He was mad at himself for being so useless that he couldn''t even protect the woman he loved... Sensing his great sadness and anger, Shu Tian stepped forward, half knelt on the bed and leaned over to hug the proud man''s drooping head. "It''s not your fault. I only make this decision because I believe that you can protect me." "I don''t want you to go." He wouldn''t be able to know what happened there. Since he was involved too, the police wouldn''t reveal much to him even if he pulled some strings. How could he calm down in that case? "Don''t worry, I''ll take care of myself." Shu Tian had already made up her mind. "What you should do now is to vindicate me, not shelter me. I didn''t do anything wrong. Why am I supposed to hole up?" What''s more, in this situation, even if he wanted to hide her, he couldn''t. Li Han''s heart was aching for her. He raised his hands, hugged her tightly, and smelt her hair. The thought of this woman leaving him made him terrified. "I can''t let you go. If anything happens to you, what should I do..." At this moment, the slightest negligence might lead to great disaster. It was too risky for her to go to the police. He simply couldn''t afford to take any risks. Shu Tian moved a small step back and gazed into his eyes. "What do you want to do? Harbor me till everythinges to light? Besides you and me, what should Doctor Ling do? What about the hospital and the patients there? Have you ever thought about that? I have. I can''t stay under the shelter of others!" "What about me?" Shu Tian looked at him, almost engulfed by bitterness. She stroked the man''s handsome face. "I''ll be fine." Li Han grabbed her cold fingers, so hard that her hands were trembling as well. She trusted him with her life, but he couldn''t even say aplete sentence... It was either her or Jiang Chujing. What choice should he make? Shu Tian had already called the police. She hated to make things difficult for anyone else, so she chose to make things difficult for herself. What a cruel woman. When the police arrived, Shu Tian had got ready and was waiting in the reception room of the hospital. Next to her was Li Han, a person to be reckoned with. The people involved in the case were of high standing, so the police chief came personally. He had thought that he would have to handle a touchy situation, but Shu Tian cooperated surprisingly well. Shu Tian looked at her wrist with a self-mocking smile and said, "I thought I would be handcuffed." The expressions of the two police officers at the side changed slightly. They did not know what to say. The police chief quickly recovered from the embarrassment. Heughed hollowly to fill the silence. "Miss Shu, don''t worry. We''re here to bring you over to cooperate with the investigation, not to summon you as a suspect. If nothing ever happened, I believe that we police officers will clear your name." Shu Tian lowered her head and smiled, but the smile didn''t touch her eyes. "Thank you." She took a deep breath and turned to look at the man who had been sitting still on the sofa the whole time. Choking back tears, she said goodbye to him, "I''m leaving." Li Han fiercely extinguished his cigarette in the ashtray. He stood up, strode to her, and pulled her into his arms. "Wait for me." His hoarse voice said in her ear. His simple words meant a lot to her. There were no words to describe how Shu Tian felt now. She nodded solemnly. Li Han quickly let go of her. Trying not looking at her, he turned to the police chief beside him and said, "Please take care of her." It was just four words, but he had probably never been that humble. The police chief pandered to him. "Mr. Li, don''t worry! I got this!" Chapter 249 Chapter 249 Shu Tian was taken to the police station. After Ling Junze finished a major operation, he got the news and rushed to the office without changing his clothes. Li Han was smoking desperately on the sofa with his head down. Ling Junze walked over quickly and grabbed him by the cor, "What happened?" Li Han seemed to choke on the smoke. He coughed violently so that his face and eyes turned red. He dissipated the smoke and said in a hoarse voice, "Shu Tian called the police herself." Ling Junze was shocked and didn''t move. In the end, he sat on the sofa in frustration, "I said that I can take the responsibility. Don''t you believe me?" Li Han opened his mouth and said helplessly, "She insisted on doing it cause she didn''t want to implicate us." Ling Junze expected it, but he was so grieved since it was beyond his expectation. Ling Junze knew Shu Tian well. She looked delicate but she was strong. So Ling Junze could expect it, but he felt sad when he knew the result. Ling Junze had long epted Shu Tian. She was taken away now. It was no good. "Didn''t you stop her? You just listened to her? You stupid!" Ling Junze said. He didn''t believe that Li Han did not consider it. "Junze, she is so stubborn and didn''t tell me until she called. What can I do..." As Li Han spoke, he bent down and rested his elbows on his knees. He buried his face in his palms. The warm liquid flowed between his fingers. How long didn''t he cry? He even forgot when he cried the Ling Junze looked at Li Han and could not continue toin. He could not believe that a woman could make such a choice, which no man could bear. "It can''t be her." Li Han didn''t move. It seemed that he could not hear anything. Ling Junze lifted him up. He looked calm and said, "She went to the police station because she trust you. Li Han, cheer up. You still have a lot to do. Work hard to live up to her expectation!" "But..." He smiled wryly and repeated, "I cannot do it." "I know how pained you are." Ling Junze''s adam''s apple rolled. He was depressed but he had to bear it. He said, "It will get better after you get through it. You''ve survived so many affairs. You can make it this time!" Li Han was never rational about anything about Shu Tian. Ling Junze was afraid that Li Han would copse so he reminded Li Han! Li Han realized that he could not copse. Shu Tian was waiting for him. Li Han changed his expression for a moment, but he turned desperate soon, "Junze, I don''t know where to start..." Li Han had never shown the white feather before. He was strong andpetitive. It was rare that he said that he didn''t know what to do. Ling Junze frowned, "What do you want to know?" "Shu Tian didn''t do it. Who do think it is?" He frankly said, "Is it Jiang Chujing?" What choice could he make? One was his family member, while the other was his beloved woman. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. "Han, you are my friend, so I can be frank with you." Ling Junze said with aplicated expression, "Judging from Jiang Chujing''s situation, it is possible that she did something outrageous..." "But she is Jiang Chujing, Zhang Lancheng''s granddaughter." Li Han interrupted him, "I will believe it if she is anyone else." He knew what Zhang Lancheng meant to Jiang Chujing. Zhang Lancheng was Jiang Chujing''s only family in the world. Jiang Chujing could depend on nobody if Zhang Lancheng died. Ling Junze was speechless. He believed in Shu Tian, but no one could say anything solidly before it was settled. Ling Junze could onlyfort Li Han, "Let''s cooperate with the police to check the surveince and investigate Jiang Chujing''s call records and her recent traces. The poison could not appear in the ward for no reason. Since someone did it, the evidence can be found." Li Han hung his head and said nothing. He was depressed cause he could not make the choice. Later he finally recovered, "Get all the surveince videos on the floor where Jiang Chujing was." Ling Junze was happy when he found that Li Han was still rational. Ling Junze said, "Okay, no problem!" Li Han clenched his fists with morale. He would definitely find the truth and prove that Shu Tian was innocent. [...] Shu Tian was not treated badly in the police station. She was in a single room. It was small and there were no windows. At least there were a chair and a table. "Miss Shu, please wait here. We should abide by the rules. The staff will teach youter." The captain was polite. He didn''t treat her fiercely. Shu Tian forced a smile, "Okay, thank you." "My pleasure." The captain left with the police officers and she was the only one in the room. She looked at the white walls around and could not keep calm, but she was not so sad when she thought of the fact that Li Han was trying to help her. As long as he was trying to help her, she could hold on. There was no clock in the room and her phone was handed in. She didn''t know what the time was. It seemed to be at a standstill. She could only hear her breathing. Shu Tian was scared by the unexpected events and she was exhausted. She bent over the table and kept missing Li Han. She was so tired that she could not open her eyes. Soon she fell asleep. At this moment, Meng Shichuan, who came after he got the news, was drinking tea in the director''s office. He was watching the real-time monitoring of Shu Tian and did not speak. "Mr. Meng, I''ll have someone take you there now..." "Not now." Meng Shichuan raised his hand to stop him. He stared at the woman in the real-time monitoring and said calmly, "Wait for a moment." The director was confused. Meng Shichuan was in a hurry to see Shu Tian. Why did he change his mind? Meng Shichuan''s assistant knew Meng Shichuan well. Meng Shichuan didn''t want to disturb her, so he would visit her after she woke up. But his assistant was surprised that Meng Shichuan was so gentle. Meng Shichuan drank the tea on the sofa expressionlessly as if nothing had happened. And he looked around the room from time to time. He could take her out of such a standard police station in a few minutes if he was abroad. It was so troublesome here. Chapter 250 Chapter 250 There was no other choice. Meng Shichuan could only wait at home. The director was not very clear about his background. He only knew that the instructions from his leader were very vague, so he could feel that the man''s identity was pretty mysterious, and it was best not to investigate. When he came here, he was told that he mustn''t tell anyone about this, including Li Han. So there were only them and Shu Tian knowing it. Unlike Li Han, a man of noble status, Meng Shichuan was someone whom anyone would sense danger in him at the first nce. Therefore, it was not suitable to establish a rtionship now, it might lead to a big mistake if the director was not careful. So during the two hours of waiting, the director did not even move while sitting. He kept praying in his heart that Meng Shichuan would leave the room as soon as possible. When he was about to lose it, Shu Tian finally woke up. In the surveince footage, she seemed to have woken up from the cold. After a cold shiver, she straightened up herself and raised her hand to wipe her eyes. It seemed that she had notpletely recovered her senses and she looked around in a daze. Meng Shichuan saw her confused look and he suddenly thought of something. He then smiled slightly, put down the teacup in his hand and walked out. Seeing this, the director immediately winked at a police officer, who understood instantly and then followed Meng Shichuan to the cubicle where she was. With a click, the door was pushed opened and Meng Shichuan''s eyes met hers. He was calm, yet she felt surprised. After she saw this tall man walk in from the door, she bounced up from the chair in fear. Even she quickly took two steps back to stabilize herself. "You, you..." She thought her eyes were blurred. She then blinked desperately, only to find that it was not an illusion. But... This was the police station. And she had only been here for a few hours. He could find her so quickly? What kind of connections could he have to do this in such a short time? Just thinking about it, she broke out in a cold sweat. Before he came in, he had already asked them to turn off the surveince cameras in this room. At this moment, he was enjoying to see her panicked expression. Was he actually a little perverted? But he must admit that he was in a good mood to see her like this. So he took two steps closer and watched as she retreated to the wall. Seeing that it was left with no room for retreat, he then reached out and lifted her chin. "Long time no see, Miss Shu." She automatically went into an alert state. She stared at the man in front of her warily and asked, "Why are you here?" Everything he did was beyond her imagination. Even in a ce like the police station, it was easy for him toe and go. What was his identity? "Don''t be afraid. I won''t hurt you." He chuckled and suddenly leaned closer to her lips, ready to kiss her. Yet she held her breath and turned her face to one side, her eyshes trembling violently. "Oh? Dodge me?" Right now, his deep voice rang in her ear, and his warm breath fell on her ears. A bad feeling swept over her. She then turned around and red at him. "Is it fun?" As he looked at this extremely angry and lively face, he finally let go with satisfaction. "It''s so pleasing to my eye this way." The lifeless state didn''t agree to her. Pressing against the wall, she tried to keep the furthest distance from him in this limited space. "Who the hell are you? Why are you pestering me?" "You will know who I am. The important thing now is that I can help you." With that, he raised his eyes slightly and looked at the surrounding walls. "Well? Do you need me to take you out of here or not?" In fear, she looked at him with tenseness. "Take me out? Do you know where this is? This is not a ce where you can go in and out at will." "What if I say I can?" Her eyes then widened in surprise. "What?!" "As long as you want to leave, I''ll take you away now." His expression was calm as if he were saying This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. that the weather was good today, and taking her away was a trivial matter to him. If it were someone else, she would think he was bragging, but if it was Meng Shichuan, she felt that he could really do it. Her heart was beating fast. Being in the same space with him was torture to ordinary people. "Afraid of me?" He clearly caught the panic in her eyes. He then repeated with a smile, "I won''t hurt you." "Since you don''t want to hurt me, don''t get close to me." She pursed her lips and said, "I don''t want to have anything to do with you." Hearing this, he nodded gently and strolled to the other side. "I feel a little sad to hear you say that..." She frowned and said, "What the hell are you..." Before she could finish her sentence, he suddenly turned around and walked over. Then a soft force fell from the center of her eyebrows. Her rough fingertips pressed against it. "Don''t frown. It don''t look good on you." Yet she almost went crazy due to this sudden intimacy. She then raised her hand and pped his hand off, making a crisp sound. She couldn''t control her strength, leaving a red print on his hand. Although her strength was negligible and he felt as if she was scratching him, he was still shocked by the red print. For thirty years, it was the first time he was hit by a woman. The feeling was subtle for him. And his face immediately darkened and the displeasure was visible in his eyes. He then grabbed her hand that hit him. She could not help but groan, "It hurts. Let me go!" "You dare to hit me?" Her eyes shed with coldness. His strength sessfully made her palm bloodshot. "It''s my fault I didn''t tell you the consequences." Shu Tian was confused, and she suddenly felt a pain in her neck. She subconsciously reached out to push him, but he grabbed her hands. He bit her on the neck! She could even feel the dullness of his teeth. Soon, she had goosebumps all of a sudden. Behind her was the cold wall, and in front of her was his sturdy chest. She could only bear it passively... Feeling as if she had been wrapped around her neck by a snake, she wanted to vomit. Chapter 251 Chapter 251 The faint fragrance of the woman''s body wafted into his nose. Meng Shichuan closed his eyes and tried ro suppress the desire in his body. He kept telling himself that this was a police station and he couldn''t break the rules. Shu Tian was so nervous and panicked that she almost breathless. All she could see was the man''s short ck hair, which stood up as hard as his attitude. Though she was frightened, she still tried to warn him, "There are surveince cameras here. Don''t do harm to me..." "Surveince?" Meng Shichuan looked up with disdain as if he was at home. "I turned it off when I came in." Shu Tian turned pale with fright. No wonder he was so fearless... "I don''t want to share such an interesting expression with others." He twitched his lower lip and used only one hand to control her, stroking her smooth cheek with the other one. He was as if talking to her, or muttering to himself, "No wonder Li Han is so obsessed with you." The man''s hands were as cold as the tongue of a snake. The mention of Li Han changed Shu Tian''s "I''ll give you a chance to get you out of all the trouble here. Do you want toe with me?" He got up and released her. As he spoke, his eyelids were slightly lower, and he was as condescending as a judge. Somehow, Shu Tian always felt a hint of provocation of him, as if he was saying, "How dare you?" This fight on spirit exhausted Shu Tian and she refused him without any hesitation. "I won''t go with you now, nor the future." Although she did not know why he chased her so hard, the only thing she could be sure of was that she would not abandon Li Han because of anyone else. Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. The determination in her eyes was so hot and dazzling that Meng Shichuan actually envied Li Han a little. What kind of man could own her trust so firmly? Meng Shichuanughed at himself. "It seems that you won''t go with me." "I''m d you realize that." "Fine." Shu Tian''s eyes were locked on the man who had been indifferent with augh all along, afraid that he would do something beyond her expectation the next second. Fortunately, Meng Shichuan didn''t. After staring at her for a while, he turned around and walked to the door. "If this happens again, I won''t help you." Shu Tian heard her heartbeat. She should be happy to hear that, but she really felt something strange after he said that. Did he regard he was helping her? She subconsciously wanted to refute, but on second thought, she didn''t find anything wrong. Indeed, at every critical moment, this man would show up from somewhere, and then the crisis would be solved as if all her movement was under his control. Perhaps what she hated was not his "hurt," but the feeling of being watched every moment. Shu Tian did not speak, and Meng Shichuan did not give her that chance. He raised his hand and opened the iron door in front of her and walked out directly. The oppressive tension in the room was gone. Shu Tian breathed a sigh of relief and stood still. Looking at the white wall in front of her, she was a little frank. It seemed that this matter was not that simple. The only person she could trust now was Li Han. [...] Li Han took the hospital''s surveince record and locked himself in the house. He hadn''t eaten for two whole days and didn''t go out, staring at the screen and watching it again and again. After staying up for two whole nights, his eyes were red, swollen, and bloodshot. Ling Junze was worried. When he couldn''t get through the phone, he went straight to Imperial Vi. As a result, he didn''t see anyone except Nanny Li when he entered the door, and no one answered when he went upstairs to knock on the study door. His heart was burning with anxiety. He was afraid that something would really happen to him. Just as he was about to break the door and enter, the Li family''s couple suddenly rushed over. Seeing him standing outside the study, old master Li was confused for a second, but he soon enlightened. "Are youing for Han?" he asked. Ling Junze bowed respectfully. "Yes." "It''s bothering you." Old Master Li walked over and took out a master key from his pocket without saying a word. It doesn''t matter where he got it, but fortunately the door was opened. Before they walked in, a pungent smell of smoke wafted out of the room. It was obviously that someone must smoke so much that there was as if a fire in the room. Old Master Li''s face was darkened, and he walked in to see his grandson, who was lying on the chair. He was so angry that he threw the item out of his hand. Bang! It hit the wall loudly, but Li Han didn''t even raise his eyelids. He said in a hoarse voice, "Get out." Old Master Li was panting. Ling Junze was concerned about his health and walked over to persuade him. "Don''t make your grandpa angry!" Li Han looked up, and it was only then that Ling Junze could see the scarlet in his eyes. He frowned constantly. "How can you do that to yourself..." He looked almost numb. "Watch the surveince record." "Bastard! Son of a bitch!" Old Master Li was so angry that he coughed. He covered his chest with one hand and looked at his grandson''s lonelyplexion sadly. "You hurt yourself just for a woman to the neglect of yourpany! What do you want?" He reached for the cigarette case, but it was empty. "That''s my woman," said Li Han. There was only one sentence that showed his persistence and protective intent. It was my woman, so I wouldn''t allow others to bully her. Hearing this, the old man felt that he was possessed. "Your woman! That''s a murderer, and you''re the only one who treasures her. Do you know thements of the public? Are you still a normal person?" "Others'' views have nothing to do with me. I only know that if Shu Tian is locked up for a day, I will be abnormal for a day." The old master''s eyes widened, unable to believe that this was the wise and calm Li Han. "You are crazy!" Li Han closed his eyes, his cheeks bulging slightly as he gritted his teeth. "Ling Junze, send him away." "Fine!" Old Master Li mmed the table twice with fury. "You can chase me away now for an outsider!" Ling Junze stepped forward tofort, "Don''t be angry. Han didn''t mean that. He..." "Needless to say!" The old master waved his hand and turned to walk out. "He''s not my grandson!" Grandma Li, who had been following the old master, preached, "Han, how could you!" The two elders helped each other out. Ling Junze quickly followed them and made sure that they get into the driver''s car. Turning back to the study, he heard the sound of things falling to the ground before he reached the door. His heart skipped a beat and walked in quickly. The room was already in a mess. Chapter 252 Chapter 252 Landline phone, bookcase, documents on the table, crystal ashtray... Were all scattered on the ground, and many ss fragments were beside his feet, depicting a shocking picture. The one responsible was half-reclined on the sofa, with messy hair and an ashen face, wearing the same shirt he was wearing when he left the hospital two days ago, and he was extremely tternly. Ling Junze had never seen him lose control like this and couldn''t help but worry. "What exactly happened?" Li Han seemed to lose his voice. He opened his mouth but could not make a sound, only holding a sad and helpless smile. Ling Junze''s eyes were also cold down, holding a bad intuition. "What else happened to Shu Tian?" He had never seen anyone else who could break Li Han down like this except Shu Tian. Sure enough, hearing the name, the man on the sofa finally moved. He sat up straight but bent down quickly. His every movement was filled with pain. Ling Junze did not urge him but stood beside and silently apanied him. After waiting for a long time, Li Han finally spoke. "I spent two whole days checking the surveince. I looked at every part and check every scene over and over again, but I couldn''t find anything fishy. That bottle of poisonous liquid was indeed brought in by Shu Tian, which was in her istion suit. I couldn''t see what Jiang Chujing had done. There was nothing suspicious about her movements. The surveince cameras had blind spots, and nothing could be found..." He was almost incoherent, but Ling Junze understood that Shu Tian could most likely be proved to have done this. Although they all knew it was not her, there was no way to prove her innocence. "The police have contacted me. The fingerprints on the injection were belong to her. No one else had touched it." As he spoke, Li Han swept the things on the table down again. His hard fist pounded on the ss causing a crack, and he roared like a wounded beast. "Ah!" "... Is there no trace at all?" Ling Junze still couldn''t believe it. If it wasn''t Shu Tian, who could have done this? It must be someone inside the hospital, or else that person wouldn''t have known the location of the security camera so well. But with the size of Ling''s Hospital, it was not easy to find evidence. He now understood Li Han''s mood and didn''t even know how tofort Li Han. There was no empathy in this world. You never knew how much pain it was if the needle didn''t go into your body. "Junze, I want to see her and bring her home. I know she did not do it. I believe in her, but I can''t find any evidence..." He grabbed his hair regretfully, and he almost had a nervous breakdown. Such a blow was unprecedented in Li Han''s life before. He had helped many people out of their predicament, and he had won many difficultwsuits, but now he had a setback in the issue rted to Shu Tian. The most crucial point was that he could not afford to fall at this setback. "Don''t worry. There''s always a way." Apart from such a weak sentence, Ling Junze did not know what else he could say. This proud and arrogant man burst into tears again, crying for the woman he loved. "I won''t hand her over, absolutely not." Ling Junze did not take Li Han''s words to heart. The issue was no longer under their control, but he never expected Li Han to do this... Two dayster, Li Han went straight to the police station after finishing his work at thepany. Instead of meeting Shu Tian, he went straight into the director''s office. "Mr. Li, this is thetest progress. We''ve alreadymunicated with Miss Shu. She refused to admit what she did, and what she said was very different from what the other parties described. The point is that now all the direct evidence is against her. It''s veryplicated for us to deal with it now..." The director''s expression was not as rxed as thest time Li Han came. Li Han had expected it and remained his expression. "As long as Mr. Lin doesn''t make things difficult for her, I won''t make things difficult for you." "That''s for sure. The court hasn''t ruled yet, and we don''t have the right to embarrass Miss Shu!" "I have something to tell Mr. Lin today." Li Han adjusted his clothes. "Although the evidence is not good for her now, I will still be Shu Tian''swyer." This was undoubtedly a bombshell. Director Li was shocked. Although he had known about Li Han and Miss Shu''s rtionship, this issue was unusual and involved human life. Moreover, the situation was so bad now. He thought Li Han should not be involved in this mess. He did not expect... The director mutter, could there be other variables? Anyway, no matter what, this Miss Shu must have a good treat. The two of them chatted for a while more. Director Li knew what Li Han wasing for and quickly took him to the interrogation room where Shu Tian was. When the door opened, Shu Tian was looking down in a daze and had no reaction about it. Li Han stood in front of her, looking at her growing thin chin, and was heartbroken. Her skin was naturally fair, so when she didn''t have a good rest, the dark circles under her eyes became even more obvious. Dry skin also appeared on her pink lips. She had worn out a lot in four days. Shu Tian was still in a daze. She thought that another police officer hade in and wanted to ask something. After waiting for a long time, she did not see anyone sitting down. So she looked up and was suddenly in a nk. The face which kept appearing in her mind appeared in front of her. He was still so tall and handsome, although the fatigue hanging in his brows was very heavy. Once he stood there, everything became the background. She looked at him obsessively, unwilling to blink anymore, afraid that he would disappear the next second. How many days had passed since shest saw him? Four days? Shu Tian thought about it, her tears were already flowing down, and she couldn''t help but choke. "Why are you here sote..." She had been waiting for him for days and the days passed like years, why was he here sote? Li Han felt as if he had been punched in the heart, and his eyes turned red. "I''m sorry, I can''t take you back yet." Shu Tian shook her head,ughing and crying as she wiped her tears, looking like a psychopath. She was not beautiful at all now, but he couldn''t move his eyes away. "It''s good that youe." As long as she knew that he was by her side, she was relieved. Li Han took a deep breath to calm the surging emotions, pulled out the chair opposite her, and sat down. He looked at her face to face, with the tenderness in his eyes melting her. "Don''t be afraid." Li Han clung to the cold little hands on the table. "No matter what happens, I will be by your side and share the burden with you." Hearing this, Shu Tian''s heart did aplete somersault. "The case...didn''t go well?" She asked him tentatively, the carefulness in her eyes made him heartbroken. She was the one who did nothing wrong. Li Han avoided her gaze. He couldn''t tell the truth and could only fill it with lies. "Don''t worry, I will help This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . you." Shu Tian believed himpletely and did not doubt him at all. Finally, a smile blossomed on her face. "That''s great." She suddenly remembered Meng Shichuan. "Han..." "Yes?" He looked over with concern. "What''s wrong?" Shu Tian hesitated. She paused when meeting his bloodshot eyes. He was already so tired, so she didn''t want to burden him anymore. Anyway, Meng Shichuan had said that he would note again. Finally, she swallowed the words. "Nothing." Li Han thought she was letting her imagination run away with her. He held her in his arms and held up her thin little face with his big palm. "I''ll be with you." Shu Tian looked at him affectionately. "I know." They hadn''t seen each other for a few days. Both of them missed each other deeply. Although the location was not appropriate, Li Han still couldn''t control it but leaned over and kissed the woman''s dry lips. He gently andfortingly outlined her lips. Shu Tian had never wanted someone so badly. She pulled the man''s neck down and tiptoed close to him, melting the fear and yearning of the past few days into this kiss. Chapter 253 Chapter 253 Shu Tian''s initiative was undoubtedly the best encouragement for Li Han. He was naturally unable to control himself. At this time, it was as if he had been motivated that he became more intense. Shu Tian was worried that this was the police station and didn''t let go much. She pushed him away a bit as she was panting and whispered, "There''s surveince..." "I know." Li Han didn''t care at all and continued to get closer to her, not giving her a chance to refuse. He had been thinking of this reunion for too long. A few days passed as a few years. How could he let go when he finally got the chance? Shu Tian was not firm at all. She was forced by him and softened. Somehow, she was forced to the corner. Her hands were sped against the wall. Although this was rude, when it was him that sped her fingers tightly, there was a trace of tenderness. Li Han wished he could "eat" her in one bite, but the situation was not right. He could only suppress the thought in his heart. Before he lost control of his body, he let go of her. He was panting heavily, and his eyes were stained with desire. He gritted his teeth at her ear and said, "You should make it up for me when youe out!" Shu Tian didn''t think about it, but when she heard him say it, she immediately blushed and red at him with a coquettish look that she didn''t even notice. "It''s not the right time for you to think of nonsense!" "That''s what every man would think of. I can''t help it." Was it really okay for him to say such a pornographic thing in such a serious manner? Shu Tian curled her lips. "You''re just making excuses." Li Han looked down at her angry face and found it cute and funny. He gently stroked her head with his big palm. "Be good." Anyway, he had never left any good impressions on her. He didn''t mind being more straightforward. Shu Tian was speechless and did not know what to say. She just felt that at this moment, when she nestled in his arms, the interrogation room had be less cold and scary. Happy times were always short, and although Li Han wanted to spend more time with her, he still had to go. It was almost evening when he came out of the police station. Outside, the driver had been waiting by the car for a long time. When he saw Li Haning over, he respectfully opened the door. Li Han walked to the car but did not get in. Instead, he stopped and looked at the sunset not far away. The red light dyed half of the sky into bright colors, and the sky was gradually changing from red to yellow. It was a rare sight, but Shu Tian could not see it. The smile he had when he was in the interrogation room disappeared, leaving only his cold eyes. When he thought of how reluctant she was when he left but that she didn''t say anything, he wanted to punch himself. He did not protect her well but let her bear so many things that she should not bear, his heart was more than hundres of times more painful than hers. What he said that he could help her and take her home was nonsense, those words were just to go through all this. The driver looked at Li Han''s lonely expression. Although he was only an employee, he respected Li Han very much. He couldn''t bear to see Li Han standing here alone, so he reminded Li Han softly, "Mr. Li, please get in the car first." Hearing this, Li Han withdrew his eyes and walked into the car. The scenery outside the window shed past, but he couldn''t enjoy it. All he cared about was his woman. "Mr. Li, are you going back to thepany?" Li Han leaned back in his chair, his voice tired. "Yes." [...] Forty minutester, the car drove into the underground garage of the HY Law Office. The driver stopped the car. Li Han quickly opened the door, got out of the car, and walked towards the elevator. He went all the way up to the office and found that Ji Chuanyi had been waiting for a long time. When Ji Chuanyi saw him walk in, Ji Chuangyi sat up slightly and said, "Here you are." "Yes." Li Han took off his coat and threw it on the sofa. "Have you read the information that I sent you?" "Yes." Ji Chuanyi looked at him hesitantly and asked tentatively, "Are you really going to take on Shu Tian''s case?" "Yes." Without raising his head, he picked up the document on the table and looked as if it was not something worth considering at all. "Han, you and I have been friends for so many years. I''ll get straight to the point." Ji Chuanyi sighed helplessly. "Judging from the current situation, the chances of winning the Shu Tian''s case are very This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. small. We can only strive for a reduction of sentences or a light sentence. It is almost impossible for her to be acquitted." "She didn''t do it." "How do you know it''s not her?" "I have eyes. I can tell it." Ji Chuanyi saw that Li Han didn''t listen and frowned slightly. "Look at the surveince cameras and the evidence from the police..." "Yes, I saw them. But she didn''t do it." Only then did Li Han look up. "I''m sure." Ji Chuanyi had never seen such a stubborn side of Li Han. This man had always been objective and calm. He didn''t believe anything except the information and evidence in his hands. However, he was like a different person now. If Ji Chuanyi hadn''t known Shu Tian and known what kind of person she was, perhaps he would have felt that Li Han was crazy. "Calm down. You have to face these things objectively." Hearing this, Li Han sneered, "Shu Tian was arrested so as not to implicate Ling Junze and me. She trusts me and waits for me to take her home. How can I only strive for a lighter sentence?" Not to mention Shu Tian, he couldn''t even ept it himself. "So what are you going to do? Plead not guilty? What do you think the odds are? What will happen if you lose the case? Have you thought about it?" Ji Chuanyi couldn''t help but raise his voice to remind Li Han about the situation. Li Han''s hands holding the document suddenly clenched, making the document a little deformed. Ji Chuanyi couldn''t bear to see Li Han like this. He raised his hand and patted Li Han on the shoulder. Even though it was cruel, he still said, "Han, I know you don''t want to do this, but if you plead not guilty, she may get a heavier sentence. There''s not much chance of appeal." Hearing this, Li Han suddenly loosened his grip on the document. He pulled the corner of his lips and stared at the papers on the table mockingly. "Chuanyi, I''ve studiedw for so many years, and I''ve been in court for so many years. I''ve seen countless people and things, good or bad. I always believe in the justice of thew, but in this matter, I suddenly don''t understand. I know Shu Tian didn''t do it, but I can''t prove it because there''s no evidence. These coincidences are so perfect that she has to admit her guilt, and I have no choice but to do nothing. Is this thew that I believe in?" He even began to doubt what he used to believe, and he began to doubt whether the truths he proudly believed in the past were really the truths. Did he wrong many people because of the so-called "evidence"? Ji Chuanyi''s hand on Li Han''s shoulder tightened a little and his voice sank. "Han." Li Han knew what he wanted to say and smiled helplessly. "What do you think I should do?" Pleading guilty was the best option now. Innocence was what Shu Tian wanted the most, but was full of uncertainty and she would easily fail thoroughly. Standing at this intersection, not to mention one step, he couldn''t even take half a step out. To say the least, if he really chose to plead guilty, how would he exin it to Shu Tian? Chapter 254 Chapter 254 Ji Chuanyi saw through what he was thinking and understood why he was in much pain. He sat down on the sofa next to him and handed him a paper, on which were the procedures needed. He said, "Since we have to go to court, we must choose the safest one. If we act on impulse, we may do harm to Shu Tian in the end." This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . Li Han didn''t say anything. He reached out for a cigarette and lit it. He had been smoking a lot recently. "It''s not easy to win in Shu Tian''s case, so we have to prepare for the worst result. But if we plead guilty and have a good attitude, we may let her be mitigated, then we could do our best to bail her out..." Hearing this, Li Han frowned and closed his eyes, and said, "She studiesw and is ready to do legal work. If there is a stain on her file, it will be difficult for her to develop in this industry in the future. There will be no chance for her anymore." Who would be willing to find awyer with a criminal record? Ji Chuanyi was silent. Yes, he forgot that after all, Shu Tian was awyer. "There has to be a choice." Knowing that Li Han was in a dilemma, Ji Chuanyi didn''t push him too hard but told him the stakes. He said, "It''s up to you to make the decision, but I hope you can calm down and be rational. Nothing can be changed once it gets started." The two of them talked about thewsuit for a while. Ji Chuanyi had work to do and left, leaving Li Han alone in the office. He was sitting on the spacious and soft sofa but he felt like sitting on pins and needles. Looking at the documents on the table in front of him, he could not get rid of the burden in his heart. It seemed that it was a deadlock. After thinking about it, he thought that the only breakthrough might be Jiang Chujing, who refused to admit it and insisted that it was Shu Tian who did it. However, Li Han felt that there were secrets behind it. He kept smoking after finishing one until nearly half a box was empty, and the ashtray was full of ashes. Finally, he put out the cigarette butt in a fretful mood. The moment he stood up, he felt dizzy. The irregr diet for several days almost broke him down. It was all because of this thought in his heart that kept him alive. Li Han steadied his steps and walked to his desk to pick up the phone, and said, "Tell the driver to get the car ready." [...] On the other hand, Jiang Chujing was still in Ling''s Hospital ward. Apart from the necessary treatment every day, almost nothing happened in her life. On this day, after the morning check, Jiang Mengyao called. Jiang Chujing was frightened when she saw the caller ID, then picked it up disdainfully and said, "Hello?" "Jiang Chujing, say it directly!" Jiang Mengyao''s anxious voice came from the microphone. Compared to her excitement, Jiang Chujing was very unhurried. She replied, "Slow down. Why are you arguing?" "When will you fulfill what you have promised me?" Jiang Mengyao was in no mood to say circumbendibus when the matter was done, so she asked directly. Jiang Chujing said, "I told you it would be in a few days. Taking such arge sum of money would arouse suspicion. Why are you in such a hurry?" "Why am I in such a hurry?" Jiang Mengyao yelled out of control. "It''s already four days past the original time and you haven''t given me your money. You know why I''m in a hurry. Listen up, Jiang Chujing, if you want to y tricks on me, I will never let you go. Anyway, we are a package deal now. None of us can live peacefully if you push me too far !" Hearing this, Jiang Chujing''s face became slightly ferocious. Every time when spoke about this, Jiang Mengyao would threaten her with this matter. Now that the momentum was getting more and more wrong and she seemed to have misunderstood her position. Thinking of this, Jiang Chujing''s voice could not help but be vicious. She said, "Jiang Mengyao, don''t think that you can threaten me. If I promise to give it to you, I will. However, if you dare to make any trouble, I will make you unable to see the sun tomorrow!" Her voice became grim, which was really a little scary. Although Jiang Mengyao tried to be brave, after all, she had nothing, so naturally, she was afraid of her in her heart. Therefore, she could only desperately suppress the anger in her heart and said, "Tell me a deadline!" Jiang Chujing looked up through the window at the small garden outside and narrowed her eyes. Then she said, "I will transfer the money to your ount in ten days at most." Jiang Mengyao said, "That''s too long..." "I''ll try my best. Ten days at most. It won''t take so long if it goes well." Jiang Chujing said. Jiang Mengyao thought for a moment. She had thought that she could get the money quickly so that she could run away, but Jiang Chujing''s attitude was very tough. Although she could threaten her but was unwilling to fall out with her. It was not good for both of them. After a moment of hesitation, she gritted her teeth and responded, "Okay. I''ll wait for your news. If you exceed this deadline again, don''t me me for turning my back on you!" Jiang Mengyao wanted to say something else, but Jiang Chujing heard the noise outside the door sensitively, so she immediately hung up the phone and put it under the pillow. Sure enough, just as she put it in, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Doctor George and Li Han were walking towards her. Jiang Chujing hadn''t seen Li Han for a long time and the man in front of her had lost a lot of weight. His cheekbones were slightly protruding, and the lines of his facewere more obvious and sharper. His eye sockets were already deep, but now they looked deeper and showed a strong sense of tiredness, probably because he hadn''t rested well recently. "Han, why are you here?" Jiang Chujing was so happy that she even ignored George. Faced with her enthusiasm, Li Han did not show much emotion. Instead, his expression fell on her face and he said in an ambiguous way, "You''ve recovered well recently." At this time, Zhang Lancheng passed away, Shu Tian was taken away and he was also busy. However, she was so sanguine that she didn''t look like a person who had lost her family member. Jiang Chujing naturally recognized the sarcasm in his words and the smile on her lips froze. She said, "I''m fine. George and Doctor Ling are very dedicated." Li Han sneered and said, "Zhang Lancheng is gone. Don''t you feel bad?" "How could you say that? She''s my grandma. How could I not be sad?" Speaking of this, Jiang Chujing sounded like she was about to cry. Tears filled her eyes, which made her looked pitiful. She continued, "What I can do is only to let myself not think too much, and I believe you will definitely bring the bad person to justice!" Li Han was not interested in her words, but turned to George and said, "You go out first. I''ll talk to her alone." George nodded to show understanding and instructed, "Calm down. You have to calm down. She can''t be provoked anymore." After George left, only Li Han and Jiang Chujing were left in the ward. The quiet space was very torturing especially when both of them had evil intentions. Jiang Chujing had been thinking about him crazily recently, but at the same time, she was also afraid of facing this man. She was still more or less guilty. "Han, what''s wrong with you?" She asked first because she couldn''t bear to wait for this man who didn''t speak for a long time. Hearing this, Li Han, who had been standing still, finally made a move. He walked to the sofa and sat down with his legs crossed. He looked through the istion cab in the room and saw the door leading to Zhang Lancheng''s ward. He asked slowly, "What happened on the day Zhang Lancheng was gone?" She had been asked this question by him countless times. Every time she was asked, Jiang Chujing''s heart seemed to be fried in a frying pan, sizzling and steaming. She swallowed and answered, "I told you, when I came in, I saw Shu Tian put down the injection in her hand, and the surveince cameras recorded it, too." "Let me ask you." The man''s dark eyes suddenly shot over with a sharp look. "Why was that bottle of medicine in Shu Tian''s istion suit?" Jiang Chujing''s heart was beating like a drumroll and she said, "I don''t know. I guess it was brought in from outside." "Are you sure?" Li Han asked. Jiang Chujing met his sharp eyes and pursed her lips without saying a word. Chapter 255 Chapter 255 Li Han stood up and walked towards Jiang Chujing. He looked down at her and said, "Then I need you to cooperate with something." "What?" "Testify." "Testify?" Jiang Chujing was a little confused, so she asked, "For what?" "On Shu Tian''s case, I hope you can deny it in court." "What?" Jiang Chujing looked at him in disbelief. She was so shocked that she forgot to disguise her expression, which she had always been good at. He wanted her to testify for Shu Tian and asked her to deny it? Jiang Chujing smiled stiffly and asked knowingly, "What should I deny?" "What you said you had seen, and all the recordings you made with the police." Li Han''s said calmly and even emotionlessly as if he was telling a trivial thing. Jiang Chujing, on the other side, couldn''t keep her calm at all. As Li Han said, all her efforts would be in vain. How was that possible? It was not easy for her to send Shu Tian to a desperate plight. She would never let Shu Tian out of the jail again! "I can''t." Jiang Chujing refused without hesitation, "She killed my grandmother. I wish she could spend the rest of her life in jail. Why would let her go?" "She didn''t do it." Li Han stared at Jiang Chujing and said word by word, "You should know very well who did it." Jiang Chujing''s body became stiff immediately. She tried to maintain a calm look and said, "I saw it, and the CCTV also recorded it. Who else could it be besides her?" She even asked, "Could it be me?" No one spoke, and everything around them seemed to have condensed. When they looked into each other''s eyes, they could only see the gray mists. No one knew what the other party was thinking. But Li Han suddenly understood that Jiang Chujing was really not an innocent or even a kind person. Eyes were the window to the heart. When Li Han looked straight into Shu Tian''s eyes, he could see her through and notice the kindness and softness in her eyes, but when he looked at Jiang Chujing, he could see nothing but treachery. Li Han approached Jiang Chujing a little and asked, "Did you do it?" His tense breath enveloped her in an instant. Jiang Chujing''s heartbeats were so quick. For the first time, she wanted to step back in front of him, but she couldn''t. She couldn''t show any cowardice and timidity, not even a little. It wasn''t her, it was Shu Tian. This was how she hypnotized herself, and sometimes she believed it. "It''s not me." "Whether it''s you or not, you have to testify in court." Jiang Chujing widened her eyes, surprised that Li Han was so tough. "Why?!" "Because I believe her." "You believe her?" Jiang Chujing seemed to hear a big joke and said, "How about me? Haven''t you considered my feelings? You want me to testify for a murderer who killed my grandmother. I can''t!" Li Han clenched his hand in his pocket. He knew very well that this was hisst chance to help Shu Tian go through this hurdle. If Jiang Chujing didn''t cooperate, there was really no other way. "If you''re here for this, then you can give up now. I won''t do that." Jiang Chujing sat on the bed weakly as if she had lost all her strength. She looked at a certain ce nkly, but in fact, her heart had been filled with hatred. Li Han narrowed his eyes and felt so upset. "If you agree to testify, I can also promise you one thing." Jiang Chujing was interested in it, but she didn''t show it immediately. Instead, she insisted, "I won''t use my grandmother''s life as a bargaining chip." "Chujing." Li Han called her name in a deep voice. He had not called her name like this recently. He had always called her by her full name before. Jiang Chujing blinked and said nothing. Li Han had already realized her thoughts. He gritted his teeth, angry, but he tried his best to squeeze out a sentence, "If you agree to testify, I can marry you." The room fell into a dead silence again, but something seemed to tear Li Han''s heart into pieces. No one knew what it meant to him to say that. Only he knew that the kind of happy life he was eager for might never happen anymore. But for Shu Tian, he was willing to give up, even if she would hate him. As long as she could be safe, what was the matter? "You will marry me for this?" Jiang Chujing was not so excited and happy as she had imagined. Instead, she felt so sad. She had always been curious about what Li Han could do for Shu Tian. Would he give up his money? His status? Or his reputation? However, she never thought that he could give up the right to gain happiness for Shu Tian. How many infatuated men could do this since ancient times? Jiang Chujing didn''t even know how to react. Could she say no? Even if she knew that Li Han didn''t All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. love her and he did it only for Shu Tian, the offer was too tempting. She had been hoping to marry him for too long. Seeing Jiang Chujing was silent, Li Han thought she was worried, so he continued, "Don''t worry. After I marry you, even if I divorce youter, Shu Tian will never ept me. You know how much she hates you." Yes, she knew, so it was a very attractive deal. Jiang Chujing was not in a hurry to agree, but she did not refuse, either. Instead, she said ambiguously, "Han, I love you very much, but I don''t want you to use my love as a bargaining chip. You know it''s hard for me to refuse you, but thinking of my grandma, I..." She was about to continue to talk, but Li Han was no longer in the mood to listen. He interrupted her impatiently and coldly, "You can consider it. I''ll give you two days. If you agree, we''ll get the license." Get a marriage license! Jiang Chujing did not expect that she would hear Li Han say those words to her. He said he wanted to get a marriage certificate with her and be her legal husband. This was what she had dreamed of before, and now it finally came true! Li Han stared at Jiang Chujing and already knew her answer. He had always considered Jiang Chujing''s feelings for him a burden, but now he was d. At least, he could use it to get Shu Tian''s innocence back. Thinking about Shu Tian''s being locked up in the police station, he wanted to get her out immediately. Two days, he could give himself and Jiang Chujing up to two days. Jiang Chujing looked at him obsessively and said, "Han, I love you." The tenderness in Jiang Chujing''s eyes only disgusted Li Han. If he couldn''t marry the girl he loved the most, then he''d better marry the person he hated the most. After all, it was just a marriage certificate. He would never sleep with her. Li Han pushed her away and said, "I don''t love you." Jiang Chujing was disappointed. All he did was for Shu Tian. That was all. Chapter 256 Chapter 256 Li Han gave Jiang Chujing two more days to think about it. During these two days, Jiang Chujing was actively cooperating with the treatment and asionally sat in front of the window as if in a trance. But most of the time, she was smiling, confusing George. Didn''t one of her family just pass away? Why didn''t she look sad? But after all, it was privacy, so George didn''t ask her about it. He just reported her physical condition to Ling Junze and Li Han every day. Shu Tian had been detained in the police station instead of being sent to jail where contained an odd mix of people. Otherwise, Shu Tian would be badly bullied. With Li Han''s protection, no one dared to mention it. Anyway, the verdict wasn''t made and a turnaround was possible. However, the pressure created by the public opinion was heavy, making the matter paid close attention. Ever since Li Han visited Shu Tianst time, Shu Tian felt much more at ease. Although she knew nothing about the situation, she believed that Li Han would take her home as he promised. However, to her surprise, Tang Zechen was only to meet her. The police asked Shu Tian whether she wanted to see him or not. Shu Tian shook her head to refuse after thinking about it. Soon, the police officer went back to Shu Tian and said that Tang Zechen had something important to tell her. After a second thought, Shu Tian finally agreed. "Miss Shu, don''t worry. We''re in the police station. You''re safe." Seeing Shu Tian''s sullen face, the police officerforted her. Shu Tian moved up the corner of her lips and replied, "Thank you. I believe you." When she arrived at the visiting room, Tang Zechen was already sitting inside. There was a thick transparent and bulletproof ss between them. Eyeing Shu Tian''s pale face, Tang Zechen unconsciously formed his fingers into a fist. He had imagined the scene of meeting Shu Tian before, but it was different. Shu Tian was the one who made Tang Zechen suffer a great loss, so Tang Zechen had felt that he would gloat, but now... The man looked down to hide the subtle pity. "I heard about what happened to you." Shu Tian was not surprised at all. "Everyone in the J City knows it. Are you justing to reminisce with me?" "Interesting," Tang Zechen chuckled coldly. "You''re still so arrogant and haven''t changed at all." Shu Tian pursed her lips slightly and said, "I''m sorry for not letting you see me in distress." "I''m not here to argue with you." Tang Zechen took a deep breath and said, "I saw the rted reports. I believe that you wouldn''tmit murder. I trust you." Although Tang Zechen was much like a stranger to her, Shu Tian thanked him politely, "Thank you." "I don''t know if I should tell you something that I was advised not to, but I think you have the right to know it." Tang Zechen crossed his fingers and ced them loosely in front of his chest. "Do you remember Jiang Mengyao? She might have something to do with this." Shu Tian hadn''t heard the name for so long that she was even nk for a few seconds. "What?" "I saw her once near the Ling''s Hospital. I wasn''t sure at the time because I only saw a blurry figure, but I sense it should be her." After all, Tang Zechen had slept with Jiang Mengyao before, so Tang Zechen could recognize her more easily. Ling''s Hospital? Shu Tian was confused about the reason why Jiang Mengyao had appeared in such a sensitive ce. "What was she doing there?" "I don''t know. I didn''t contact her. She''s wanted by the police, so now she is probably hiding somewhere." A look of hatred was on Tang Zechen''s face. Compared to Shu Tian, Jiang Mengyao was even more hateful, for Jiang Mengyao had pushed his family into a desperate situation. He had wronged Shu Tian, so he deserved the retribution, but Jiang Mengyao was greedy. "Maybe she heard of your news and came to see what was going on," Tang Zechen guessed. Shu Tian felt that it couldn''t be that simple, but she just thanked him without going further. "Thank you for telling me." "I have selfish motives too." Tang Zechen rarely confessed, "I hate Jiang Mengyao, so I''ll be d to see you trouble her." Shu Tian was not surprised at all, for she was familiar with the man''s personality. "Anyway, thank you." Tang Zechen examined Shu Tian through the ss. Although the woman couldn''t clean up and even wash up, her outstanding appearance couldn''t be concealed. Why he hadn''t realized it when she had been his wife? Now, Tang Zechen thought Shu Tian was really a beauty. He couldn''t help imagining what would have happened if he had lived a peaceful life with Shu Tian. Perhaps it would be a happy family with healthy and happy children. Unfortunately, so much had changed and they couldn''t go back to the past. "If there is nothing, I must be leaving now." Shu Tian spoke, interrupting his imagination. Tang Zechen came back to his senses and was about to say something more. In the end, he only said one word, "Okay." Seeing the police help Shu Tian up from the chair and take her out of the visiting room, Tang Zechen sat in his seat until the staff urged him to leave. The square room was silent again as if no one hade. Some people were destined to be each other''s passers-by, and time slowly faded from our past. Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. [...] After returning to her room, Shu Tian made a request before the police officer left. "I want to make a call." Li Han had previously told her that if she made a request, the police would meet it. This was the first time that she had asked for help. The policeman was confused for a moment. Remembering what the director had told him, he immediately nodded in agreement and brought the internal phone over. Conforming to the rules, he dialed the number for her before handing the phone over. "It''s best not to take too long." "Okay." Shu Tian put the receiver to her ear, and the phone was answered in less than two seconds. A familiar voice came. "Hello?" "Li Han, it''s me." Hearing her voice, the man immediately became nervous. "What''s wrong? What happened?" Seeing that Li Han was so worried about her, Shu Tian was moved. "It''s fine. Don''t be afraid. Tang Zechen came to see me just now. He''s gone now." The man replied in a lower voice, "Why did he meet you?" "He said he saw Jiang Mengyao near the Ling''s Hospital two days ago. Although he didn''t see her face, he thought it should be her." Shu Tian told Li Han the exact words Tang Zechen had told her. "It might be true. He has no need to lie to me." "I''ll ask someone to check the surveince video today!" Li Han said as he turned on another phone and couldn''t wait to ask his men to do so. Then, heforted Shu Tian, "Don''t worry, as long as she appeared, she would definitely be photographed." Shu Tian nodded, regardless of whether he could see her or not. "Okay, I see... Is the case going well?" "Yes," he answered briefly. His heart ached when he thought of his promise to Jiang Chujing. "Don''t worry. Leave it to me." Without suspicion, Shu Tian felt more at ease when hearing it. Then, they talked little because of the limited time. However, what Shu Tian did not expect was that the ease and trust would one day make her sunk in the depth of vice. Chapter 257 Chapter 257 The police quickly found that Jiang Mengyao had shown up outside the hospital. Coincidentally, she showed up on the day Zhang Lancheng died. This aroused her suspicion. Of course, there were no other records. But it was essential to know that she was around the hospital at that time. But it was hard to find her if she was hiding in a remote ce. They had to wait. Jiang Chujing learned the news a dayter, not from Jiang Mengyao, but from the people who had been sent to follow her. "Miss Jiang, your target is exposed." A call from a strange number said with a very cold voice, a professional assassin hired by Jiang Chujing. "Are you sure?!" Hearing the news, Jiang Chujing stood up from her chair and asked, "When did it happen?!" "These days. Someone started investigating." The man''s words were very concise. "What? Do you want to do it or not?" Jiang Chujing''s mind was in a mess for a moment. She didn''t know how Jiang Mengyao exposed herself, but who else could investigate her except Li Han? The thought that Li Han would know about this immediately made her nervous. She could not be exposed. If Li Han knew that she did everything, she would definitely be screwed! Jiang Chujing held her breath. "Do it." "Well, wouldn''t it have been so troublesome if you gave the order before?" The man was about to hang up. "Wait!" Jiang Chujing said hurriedly, "Don''t kill her. Just make her speechless so that she can''t identify me." "Miss Jiang, it''s not that I can''t do this, but it''s inhumane. Now, if you want to do it, I can do it neatly. If you don''t want to do it, I''m also afraid of getting into trouble..." "I''ll give you more money." Jiang Chujing breathed a little fast, and it was not hard to see how nervous she was. "Do it as soon as possible. Don''t dy. I would give you more ." Only then did the man let go with satisfaction. "Since Miss Jiang said so, I''m relieved. I''ll do it for you." "Yes." Before hanging up, Jiang Chujing added, "Be careful." Looking at the screen of the phone while the call was ended, Jiang Chujing could not calm down for a long time. If she had known that Jiang Mengyao would cause trouble, she should have done it long ago! The only thing she wanted now was to hurry up and cripple Jiang Mengyao before Li Han could find her. Because of this, Jiang Chujing was a little uneasy. Jiang Mengyao and she were so careful. How could they be exposed? She was so confused that she never expected that Tang Zechen would tell Shu Tian about that. At first, Jiang Chujing had nned to use two days thinking about it. She wanted to dy it. After all, she couldn''t be too active since Zhang Lancheng was dead. What was worse, something happened like that. Li Han might have other purposes to be with her. Jiang Chujing clenched her hands tightly. She was the only one who knew how much she wanted to get that man, but she couldn''t take any risks. Jiang Mengyao had been exposed and would be found sooner orter. Instead of letting Shu Tian out and being a threat to her at all times, it would be better for her to stay inside for rest of her life. After making up his mind, Jiang Chujing took out the phone she usually used from the drawer and dialed Li Han''s number. The phone rang for a while before it was picked up, "Hello." "Han!" Jiang Chujing walked to the window with her phone and tried to make her voice sound calm. "I thought about what you said to me to help Shu Tian, but I couldn''t ept it. I can''t let grandma down All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. for my own wish!" Jiang Chujing spoke very righteously as if she was really a filial daughter. Li Han''s voice, on the other hand, was cold as ice without any emotion. "Think about it again..." "No, I don''t have to. I''ve already thought it through. I won''t let her get away with that. It''s a life. She was a close rtive of mine. You should forget that." Her refusal was an unexpected move to Li Han. He had thought Jiang Chujing would promise him in the end, but he didn''t expect... She did that in the end. If Jiang Chujing refused his request, Shu Tian might lose thewsuit. This was hisst chance to turn the tables. Thinking of that, Li Han let go of all her emotions and almost begged, "Chujing, I hope you can think about it. I can give you whatever you want." "I meant it. I''m sorry, Han. I can''t do it." After that, Jiang Chujing hung up the phone without waiting for his response. In fact, she couldn''t stand it anymore since she was quite guilty. In order to get rid of Shu Tian, she was willing to put everything on it even what she wanted the most. What she was most afraid of was that Shu Tian woulde out again, and she would cause endless trouble in the future. However, it made things worse for Li Han. He had already put all his eggs in one basket. Now that he received such a response, there was really only one way left. Shu Tian had to plead guilty, then asked the court to give her a light sentence, and then she could try to bail her out through his connections. But the same price had to be paid. First of all, he should persuade her. Secondly, she might not be able to do any work rted tow. She might not even be able to get involved in this industry. She could be bailed out, but this stain would take a lifetime to bear. His heart ached at the thought, not to mention that he had to face her. Ji Chuanyi was led in by the secretary after the meeting. As soon as he got closer, he saw he was gloomy. These days, they all had been worried about Shu Tian, not to mention how frustrated Li Han was. "Han, have you decided what to do? We can''t dy it any longer. It''s not good for us to spend too much time on nning." The man''s adam''s apple moved. "There''s no news from Jiang Mengyao for the time being." Ji Chuanyi nodded and ced the choice in front of him again. "So... What do you want to do?" Sooner orter, what shoulde woulde, and they still had to face what they supposed to face. Although making this decision was like cutting his heart open with a knife, Li Han still had to face this bloody reality. His eyes were bloodshot with anger as he said with difficulty, "Where''s the information for pleading guilty?" Hearing this, Ji Chuanyi understood his decision and handed him the things he had prepared. "These include everything." Li Han looked at the pile of documents. His hand was so heavy as it weigh a thousand pounds. He tried to lift it, but it was as if he had been held down by someone. Because he knew very well that this was not only information but also Shu Tian''s future and fate. Chapter 258 Chapter 258 In the end, Li Han took the stack of documents. He had no choice but to ept them. Couldn''t he im innocence? Yes, of course he could, but it would take everything of him. If he lost, he would ruin Shu Tian''s life. He didn''t dare to take the risk. If he himself were the client, he wouldn''t have to be so afraid. Once Li Han made a choice, things went on very quickly. It only took him a day and a half to get through the information. During this period of time, he did not care about affairs of thepany and just focused on the case. He had never been in this state since he graduated from college. The process was familiar to Li Han, so everything went very smoothly. He personally participated in every step. He was afraid that something would go wrong. Li Han had never told Shu Tian about it, but after all, there were many people involved in the case, so the news spread quickly. Meng Shichuan also heard about it. At that time, Meng Shichuan was sitting in a tall office building and overlooking the busy and crowded streets below. When he heard it, he only slightly raised his eyebrow and said, "After such a long time, I thought he must have a good way. Is that it?" "Yes, Mr. Meng, but considering Li Han''s social status, even if the court decides Shu Tian is guilty, she will be released on bail soon." The assistant said behind Meng Shichuan. Meng Shichuan raised his hand to button the crystal buttons on his sleeve and turned around. He asked, "Why do you admit what you didn''t do?" Then, Meng Shichuan seemed to be amused and added, "I thought I wouldn''t have a chance to go to the police station again. It seems that I have to go there one more time." The assistant was stunned and asked, "Mr. Meng, you mean..." "Yes." Meng Shichuan answered and stopped smiling, "Tell Mr. Lin that I''m going to meet Shu Tian tonight." He looked more serious now. The assistant quickly answered, "Okay, Mr. Meng." Meng Shichuan looked out and stared thoughtfully at somewhere. "It''s time to leave. We have stayed here for so long this time." [...] At nine o'' clock that night, Meng Shichuan appeared in Shu Tian''s interrogation room as scheduled. When a police officer unlocked the door, Shu Tian seemed to be startled and sat stright vigntly. She looked at the door wearily. When Shu Tian saw Meng Shichuan''s face, she frowned immediately. As expected, she overreacted. Meng Shichuan didn''t mind her "resistance" at all. He walked straight in and locked the police officer outside the door. He didn''t talk to her frivolously or touch her like before. Instead, he sat down opposite her politely. "We meet again, Miss Shu." This familiar opening lines and familiar people surrounded Shu Tian like nightmares. Shu Tian''s attitude was not so good. She sneered disdainfully and said, "It seems that Mr. Meng is very forgetful. You don''t remember what you said two days ago." She was referring to what Meng Shichuan said before he left, "I won''t help you next time." Hearing Shu Tian''s words, Meng Shichuan lowered his eyes to hide his inexplicable loss. When he looked up, he regained his usual yfulness and coldness. "It seems that you really don''t want to see me... But I''m afraid I can''t stand by this time." Shu Tian frowned and didn''t want to talk to him much. "Mr. Meng, don''t you understand when other people say no?" "I know you''ve been waiting for Li Han to help you with this case, and I know the main situation of your case. You want to cliam innocence, don''t you?" Meng Shichuan deliberately paused for a moment before saying thest two words. Shu Tian was frightened and asked in shock, "How did you know?" These things were rtively private, but Meng Shichuan seemed to know everything... "I have my own way." He leaned a little to the left and sat more casually as if he were in a club. "Do you know what Li Han was doing while you were waiting for the victory?" Shu Tian got nervous and retorted subconsciously, "What else can he do besides helping me?" "Help you?" Meng Shichuan smiled briefly and took out his phone from his pocket. He put it in front of Shu Tian and said, "Look. That''s how he helped you." Shu Tian looked at the screen. She knew she shouldn''t listen to Meng Shichuan, but she couldn''t help but look down at the words on it. It was a very simple and clear electronic document, with extremely detailed information about the case, including the signature of Li Han. It seemed authentic. Shu Tian studiedw, and she knew it was not likely to fabricate this document. She didn''t read it very carefully. She just skimmed through it quickly and saw a few key words, but her mood became more and more gloomier. Meng Shichuan watched Shu Tian slid the electronic document to the bottom. He knew that she had almost finished reading, so he leaned forward with his hands on the table and asked, "How do you feel?" Shu Tian did not speak. The hair on her forehead covered her face. After she read the whole document, there was one sentence which impressed her most. "Considering the client''s surrender, I hope the court can give a lighter sentence." Surrender? Her shoulders trembled. The door was closed, but she felt soo cold, as if the wind was rushing straight into her heart. "Impossible... This is impossible!" Shu Tian pushed the phone away. Her eyes widened uncontrobly and she got tense. Meng Shichuan nced at his phone and put it back in his pocket. "If you don''t believe me, you can call him and ask." His words made Shu Tian lose heart. Why? How could he say this so fearlessly? "Li Han won''t do that. He promised to help me clear my reputation. I will never plead guilty!" Shu Tian suddenly stood up from her chair excitedly as if she could not bear the atmosphere aymore. She turned to the door and shouted, "Sir, please take him out!" Meng Shichuan narrowed his eyes and stood up. He walked to Shu Tian and put his hands on her shoulders, pressing her back into her seat. "Shu Tian, this is the reality. You have to face it." This was the first time Meng Shichuan called her name, and he never spoke so seriously to her before. The moment Shu Tian sat down, tears welled up in her eyes. The police officer heard the noise and immediately opened the door, but he stopped awkwardly when he saw what was going on inside. "Miss Shu, you..." Before he could finish his sentence, Meng Shichuan red at him. The police officer immediately shut up and stood at the door awkwardly. "That''s all I want to say. You can ask him about it. I came here today not to disgust you. I just want to tell you that if you want to leave..." Meng Shichuan leaned closer to Shu Tian and said in a low voice, "I All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. can take you away regardless of the consequences." Chapter 259 Chapter 259 "Nonsense!" red Shu Tian, hugging her head with both hands and shaking her head incessantly. The tears in her eyes fell on the ground, and soon dried up. "You know best if I was talking nonsense. You seem overwhelmed. How are you going to face it when the court is really in session?" The man''s voice sounded like a spell lingering in her ears. His words were like a dagger stabbing in her chest. She was too intimidated to face it. She had never thought of such a result. It was too cruel for her. Although she didn''t believe it, she couldn''t help but recall the ambiguous answer Li Han gave her when she asked him about the progress of the case. He had never told her the truth, and she believed him foolishly. Shu Tian cried whileughing. She was on the verge of losing control. She gave all her trust and courage to this man, but she ended up like this. He was not to me for his cruelty. She was too stupid to throw herself into a trap, to the extent that she sat in this room and imagined that he would take her home as he told her. "He promised me..." Shu Tian sobbed, holding back her tears. All she got was silence, which made her feel cold and sarcastic. She found it hard to believe that Li Han promised her in front of her but went back on his words behind her. Meng Shichuan was vexed, seeing her crying her eyes out. He wondered how much she loved that man. He had never, nor did he want to be loved like this, but when he saw Shu Tian was devastated because of Li Han, he felt a little envious. Originally out of gratitude for saving his life, he now found that his feelings for her changed. His heart ached for her when he saw her crying. Knowing that her case was not going well, he was worried and a little d that he had another reason to take her away. "Leave. Why don''t you let it go?" Meng Shichuan said. Shu Tian slowly closed her eyes and said, "Leave? If you''re really doing it for my own good, print out the document and give me a copy." Meng Shichuan knew what she wanted to do and nodded. "Okay." "Why do you want to take me away so badly? Is it because I saved your life, or is it because you like to impose?" There was a deep nasal sound in her voice, and even this rude remark failed to anger him. Meng Shichuan took out the handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her. "You don''t believe me?" He asked. "Why should I trust you?" Meng Shichuan, who was lost for words for a moment, looked at her pale face and said after two seconds, "I just don''t want to see you suffer like this." Hearing this, Shu Tian opened her eyes. The incandescent light above her head dazzled her eyes. She said, forcing a smile, "Thank you for your kindness." The only hope left in Meng Shichuan''s eyes faded. She did not believe him no matter what he said. He felt awful. He wouldn''t take it to heart if she was someone else. But she was Shu Tian, and his heart didn''t allow him to let it go. Given that Shu Tian was very emotional, Meng Shichuan wanted to leave after she calmed down a little, but his existence worsened the situation. He had no choice but to tell the police to take good care of her and leave. The lights in Shu Tian''s room were on all night. She read the printed electronic documents over and over again all night. Only by confirming every word over and over again could she believe that what Meng Shichuan said was true. Li Han had made the choice of pleading guilty without her knowing it. She stared at the final signature and imagined the look on his face when he signed it. Was he guilty, sad, or helpless? Or maybe he was calm. But it had nothing to do with her anymore. She was the one who was given up, and she didn''t deserve a reason. [...] Li Han received a call from the police station at around nine in the morning. He didn''t sleep until three in the morningst night. He was exhausted to the extreme, but he woke up as soon as he got the call. "Mr. Li, Miss Shu has something to talk to you about. Pleasee over." Hearing this, Li Han frowned. Usually, Shu Tian would call him directly if she had something to talk to him and she had never asked anyone else to do it for her. He asked, his heart sinking, "Where is she?" "Oh, Mr. Li, don''t worry. Miss Shu is fine." The answer did not reassure Li Hanpletely. Instead, he had a bad feeling. He knew Shu Tian too well. There was a tacit understanding between the two of them. She must have done this for a reason. What could make her unwilling to call him herself? Li Han drove nervously all the way to the police station. The car was parked in the courtyard. As soon as the engine was turned off, he hurried in and walked straight to Shu Tian''s room. The door opened, showing a woman, lifeless. Li Han had never seen her like this before, even when she was brought to the police station earlier. If there was a word to describe her situation, it would be hopeless. He frowned, thinking that something was wrong with her. He walked over nervously and asked, "What''s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" As he spoke, he raised his hand to put it on her forehead, trying to see if she had a fever. But before he could touch her forehead, she suddenly shrank back and dodged. Li Han''s raised hand froze in midair. Shu Tian took the two printed papers from the drawer to the table without looking at him. "Sit down. I have something to talk to you about." Her pale face worried Li Han so much that he asked with great concern, "Tell me what''s going on with you first." The faint odor of him came to her. Shu Tian finally lifted her eyes. She used to love thje odor, but now This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. she felt cold and heartless. She raised her head slightly and looked at him, deep in thought. Just as Li Han was about to ask, Shu Tian suddenly reached out to wrap her arms around his neck and pulled him over, raising her face to kiss him. She closed her eyes, tears spilling from the corner of her eyes. Her cold lips moved slowly against his. Li Han sensed the awkwardness in her posture and leaned forward cooperatively, raising her chin with one hand to deepen the kiss, but at this moment... Shu Tian clenched her teeth and pushed the man in front of her away. She asked, and her big wet eyes were full of mockery, "Li Han, I''m curious. What were you thinking when you kissed me?" Chapter 260 Chapter 260 The man''s face suddenly darkened, and there was an imperceptible nervousness in his serious tone, "What do you mean?" His words were like a switch that made Shu Tian tremble uncontrobly, her delicate body shaking like a sieve. "What do I mean?" She raised her finger and shook her head, "Shouldn''t I be asking you that?" Li Han did not respond. There were endless emotions in his dark eyes that she could not understand, but his gaze gradually turned cold. Shu Tian looked at him. Her little face was as pale as paper. She could barely maintain her sitting posture by holding the table, "How''s the case going?" Li Han remained in the same posture as before, close to Shu Tian. He stared into her swollen eyes, and the lie that he had managed to hide was slowly breaking down. She must have found something. "Who hase to see you?" After a long time, he only asked such a question worryingly. Did he worry about her? No, he didn''t. He was worried that she would expose his lie. She used to believe in this man so much, but now, she didn''t dare to trust a word from him. There was a saying that things would turn into their opposite when they reached the extreme. The more Shu Tian thought about it, the more ridiculous she felt. Her eyshes trembled, and she snorted coldly, "What''s the matter? You don''t dare to say anything because you''ve done something wrong? And you''re afraid that someone will tell me about that? Okay, if you won''t say it, I''ll speak for you." She endured the pain in her chest, and every word seemed to exhaust all her strength, "You promised to help me prove my innocence, but after I entered the police station, you changed your mind without telling me. You want me to plead guilty? Li Han, when you kept saying that you believed me, what you were thinking about was killing me." Li Han''s heart ached sharply. He straightened up and tried to hide his panic. He looked down at her, This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . "I''ve never thought of this before, and I''ve never suspected you!" "But you want me to plead guilty," Shu Tian couldn''t listen to him at all, "Your words are just not logical." Why would he still lie to her now? While Shu Tian was pushed to her limit, she calmed down. She ruthlessly took two pieces of paper from the table and handed them to him. Everything was written down in ck and white. There was no way for him to deny it. "Did you sign your name? If you say no, I will believe you." Li Han nced at the familiar handwriting, and it was indeed his signature. His tall body immediately froze, and a thinyer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead. When seeing the electronic document, he didn''t know how to respond at all, "Tian..." "Don''t call me!" Shu Tian''s eyes widened, and she stared at him, letting him see her fragility and sadness, "It''s said that people should always be on guard against one another. But I never thought that the person who slept by my side day and night is the most ruthless person to scheme against me. I don''t understand. If you want me to pay the price and to live a miserable life, you can just say it. I''m no match for you. Why do you torture me while making me fall in love with you?" If she didn''t love him, she wouldn''t be so upset. It was because she cared about him so much that she suffered miserably. Her questions and his wild heartbeats echoed in Li Han''s ears. His face turned sullen, and his throat was frighteningly dry, "I can exin." However, Shu Tian didn''t want to listen to him because she couldn''t believe his words anymore, "I don''t need your exnation. Just tell me. Did you know everything long ago? Did you sign this?" Li Han only felt like he was a stranded fish. His pale lips were so dry that he subconsciously licked them and struggled to make a nasal sound, "Yes." "Well," Shu Tian looked at him and suddenly smiled, "Are you nning to send me to jail yourself?" "No, I wasn''t." He raised his voice and responded while she was asking, "At first, I wanted you to plead not guilty, but all the surveince videos and evidence were against you. It was difficult to achieve such a result under limited conditions. If I insisted, the result would not be better than pleading guilty. After considering so much, I made such a choice. Of course, I won''t let you stay in prison. I''ll bail you out after the verdict, and our rtionship won''t be affected at all." "Our rtionship will not be affected?" Shu Tian interrupted him and repeated, "What about me? Why should I have to live with such a stain all my life? " She was the most innocent person, but now it was like she had done something wrong. "Tian, it will not work out if only I trust you. The court''s order is based on evidence." After that, Li Han squatted down and looked into her eyes. He held her cold hand and said, "I promise you I won''t make you suffer." Shu Tian frowned and pulled her hand back, "You never did what you promised me. I can''t believe you anymore." "This is the best choice." "What''s the best?" Shu Tian''s tears, which she had finally held back, fell again, "You said you wouldn''t let me suffer. I didn''t kill anyone, but I had to bear such a stain. In the future, whenever someone mention my parents, they would say that my parents are the parents of a murderer. Also, I could no longer pursue my career. If this is what you said I will not suffer, why shouldn''t I be angry at you?" Li Han puffed up cheeks slightly and had no way to refute. He wanted to wipe the tears off her face, but she tilted her head to avoid him. "At that time, Jiang Chujing was the only one presented beside me. I haven''t told you anything about her since the ident, but now I want to say that I suspect her. Even if that person got hurt is her grandmother, she might also kill her grandmother. She is more vicious than we thought and has no humanity at all! But what about you? Have you ever thought that she is the one who is guilty?" It wasn''t that Li Han hadn''t thought about it or suspected Jiang Chujing, but... "Tian, we have no evidence." His words blocked everything Shu Tian wanted to say. Shouldn''t there be something else besides evidence? Apart from thew, what about his heart? That was what she cared about. "You can go. I don''t want to talk anymore." She slowly closed her eyes and grabbed the clothes on her chest as if this would relieve the piercing pain. While seeing her being like this, Li Han could not leave at all. His mind was filled with her, and he had a premonition that if he couldn''t make the matter clear, he would never be able to get her back. "I know I shouldn''t have kept it from you. I didn''t want to keep it from you, but I haven''t figured out how to tell you." Proud as he was, lowering his head at this moment, and was only afraid of losing his beloved woman. Shu Tian''s eyes were so empty that her tears kept falling, "At this point, I regret meeting you and falling in love with you. I have given everything I have for this rtionship, but I still can''t get a good result. Maybe I don''t deserve aplete rtionship. Li Han, I''m tired. I can''t trust you anymore, and we can''t go back." "Why can''t we go back?" As long as she was willing to believe him, everything would be as usual. "I can force myself, but I can''t force my heart. Here," Shu Tian poked her heart, "It already excluded you." Chapter 261 Chapter 261 "I won''t allow it!" The man said word by word. The thought that she no longer loved him filled his whole body with powerlessness and anxiety. He could clearly feel the tension inside every inch of his body. He was not afraid both when that thing happened and when thewsuit was not going well, but he was broken-hearted when hearing such a sentence from her. No matter how strong a person was, he had his own weaknesses. In the past 30 years, weaknesses never haunted him, for he lived a pure and heartless life. Now she had be his weakness and a single sentence from her could wipe away all his hopes. If she didn''t love him, everything he did would be meaningless. Shu Tian gripped the clothes hard, disappointed when finding him with no nostalgia or love in his eyes like before. "You can''t control me, just like I can''t control you. Li Han, I''ve never done anything sorry to you, and I can''t hold on anymore..." "So, you want to leave me?" The man''s eyes instantly turned cold. "It''s you who forced me to leave!" "Impossible." Li Han looked grim, standing tall in front of her like an insurmountable wall, but only he knew that he lost all his strength and could fall at any time when hearing this. This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . Shu Tian wiped the tears off her face and closed her eyes in pain. "I have told you I wouldn''t let you go. No matter when, I will tie you to my side." He had said this countless times, but none of it scared Shu Tian. Hearing this, she was not moved or guilty but felt a sense of constrained urgency. "Will you even if I was in pain for the rest of my life?" "I won''t let you suffer." Shu Tian twitched her lips helplessly without saying anything. "I''ll send someone to look after you for the next few days if you don''t want to see me. I''ll try my best to get the best result for the case. You can beat me or scold me after the case is over." No one knew how painful Li Han felt when he said these words. He just hoped that these things would be solved quickly and stopped standing between him and Shu Tian anymore. Taking the unintentional word seriously, Shu Tian felt that he was going his own way. Li Han finally left. Sitting in the interrogation room and looking at the white walls around her, she realized that her mood had changed drastically. In the past, she was waiting for him to save her, but now, she was more like awaiting her doom. It was not easy to leave, not to mention that this was the police station. Even outside, it was easy to find her with Li Han''s influence and status. Besides, Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei were still in J City. Actually, she had nowhere to go, and she had to support her parents. Although she might be a disgrace to them, she could not give up all of these. Thinking of what might happen, she was extremely flustered and anxious. The two pieces of printed paper were quietly ced on the table. If it weren''t for the tear stains on them, she would have thought that everything just now was an illusion. The slightest thought of Li Han betraying her made her so broken-hearted that she could not breathe. Moreover, he was speaking to her in a tone with a kind of non-negotiable order. He let her wait until the case was over. Shu Tian looked grim, and her face was filled with gloom never seen before. She was afraid that they would end up being enemies. She used to believe everything he said, but now she should think more about herself. Staring at the two pieces of paper with a gloomy expression, she suddenly thought of a man who impressed her and immediately called the police to bring the phone to her. After a long time with a busy signal, she didn''t hear the sound until she thought that no one would pick it up, "Hello?" The man''s low voice came through the phone, like the sound of two fine jade stones colliding. "Hello, Mr. Meng. This is Shu Tian." She held the wirelessndline in both hands, having her heart in her mouth. "Miss Shu?" Meng Shichuan was shocked since he didn''t expect it to be her. "It''s rare for you toe to me. What''s the matter?" "Mr. Meng, I want to ask you for a favor." Shu Tian didn''t beat around the bush. "You''ve known about my case, and I want to ask you to help me change awyer when the trial is about to begin." "Change awyer?" Meng Shichuan was a little surprised, twirling slightly while sitting in the swivel chair. "You want to rece Li Han?" "Well, I''ve met him." Shu Tian said with difficulty, "As you said, that''s right." Thinking that not long ago, she had sworn that Li Han would not do this, but it went athwart. Shu Tian had mixed feelings, and mostly, she was disappointed in that man. It was he who betrayed her trust and love. Thinking of this, she felt a strong hatred in her heart. She raised her voice and said again, "I want to rece thewyer." Meng Shichuan did not have an overreaction. He was neither happy nor unhappy. As he said, he simply wanted to help her. "Thewsuit will be held soon. It is not easy to rece thewyer now. Moreover, Li Han will not let go easily in this matter." "Then..." "How about this? Let''s make a bet." Meng Shichuan cut in in a frivolous but steady and firm tone. "Just bet that if Li Han really wants you to plead guilty in this case, I will take you away." Shu Tian was no stranger to this sentence, which Meng Shichuan had told her countless times before. Because she was firm enough in her heart at that time and paid no attention to it before. Having other thoughts in her heart at this time, she naturally felt more convinced. But she never wanted to escape, never. "I can''t leave now. I..." Meng Shichuan interrupted her. "It''s okay. I''ll give you time to think about it. You can wait until the result of the casees out." Shu Tian bit her lip. "Thewyer really can''t be reced?" "Well, it''s toote now." It was toote. These words drove Shu Tian to a corner. It had been so long before she realized something was wrong. It was toote to do anything. Meng Shichuan was just waiting for her to fall into the trap. "Are you afraid?" The man deliberately provoked her. Shu tian lowered her eyelids and unconsciously tightened her hands holding the phone. "I''m not afraid. I''m just not giving up yet." Meng Shichuan replied, "It''s okay. I''ll wait until you give up." Chapter 262 Chapter 262 She was not going to give up? Being not worried at all, Meng Shichuan curled his lip. "When the resultes out, you will give up and I''ll wait for you." It was just a matter of time. Most women were so emotional that they would not believe the fact until it really happened. But he didn''t mind waiting with her. "No, I want to fight for myself and I don''t want to await my doom." Shu Tian didn''t want to admit defeat, and she didn''t want to be ruined by Jiang Chujing, so she wanted to give it a shot at thest minute. "If only you had said this when I first met you at the police station." Meng Shichuan recalled what had happened the other day. "Unfortunately, you didn''t trust me at that time." Shu Tian smiled absent-mindedly. "Now you canugh at me." He could mock her rtionship in which she thought that both sides were firm, but it turned out to be her unrequited love. "It''s not my cup of tea." Meng Shichuan just cared about was whether he could take Shu Tian away. After all, she was special to him. "I''ll wait for you to contact me." After hanging up the phone, Shu Tian was anxious. She wouldn''t go to Meng Shichuan unless she had to. He was definitely not a man to be messed with. If he couldn''t help, she had to wait. Nervous or overwhelmed, at the thought of the final result of thewsuit, she suddenly had a spasm and contraction in her stomach and a dry sour throat. She was so disgusted that she bent down and retched. The policeman who had not gone far with the phone rushed over at once. Seeing her squatting on the ground, he asked nervously, "Miss Shu, are you okay?" From the first day she entered the police station, he knew that Miss Shu was a "VIP" here and had to look after her even if she became a suspect. Shu Tian wanted to say she was fine, but as soon as she opened her mouth, a feeling of vomiting surged up. She retched several times in a row, but nothing came out. She was relieved after rinsing her mouth with a ss of water on the table. "I''m fine, just too nervous." She didn''t rest the whole night and after she met Li Han today, she was in changing mood and was tired for she cried for a long time. Hearing what she said, the policeman was still worried. "Do you need a team doctor?" "No, thanks." Shu Tian was afraid that he wouldn''t believe her and made lied casually. "Don''t make a fuss." Seeing that she insisted, the policeman stopped advising her. "Okay, let me know if you feel ufortable." "Sure." Before she could say thank you, the feeling came again. Shu Tian held it back and didn''t start her ragged breathing until he left. Fortunately, the feeling of disgust did notst long. After a while, she felt much better. At first, Shu Tian didn''t take it seriously and thought it was just an ordinary difort. Until the next day, when the lunch was served, she looked at the dishes that were supposed to be delicious in front of her and began to feel sick again. Although the food in the police station was not exquisite, it would definitely not cause such a big reaction... This time, she felt nauseous for a longer time thanst time. Especially when she smelled the celery, she vomited badly. Although she liked celery, she can''t help retching. As a woman, she thought of the possibility and was startled by her own thoughts. She became pale and felt her heart race so fast that she couldn''t even hold on to the table. A churning stomach was the biggest threat to her. Her hand subconsciously slid onto her lower abdomen. She touched it softly and then took her hands away. Things must not go her way... No... The food was taken out as it was. She was not hungry and therefore did not eat a mouthful. When the smell of the food in the room dissipated, she felt much better, especially the feeling of strangling eased a lot. Shu Tian had not contacted her family since she entered the police station. Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei wereforted by the people that Li Han sent. After receiving the news, Fu Qingtong returned home. Although Shu Tian had never seen her, Shu Tian knew exactly that she had not left J City. Fu Qingtong must have been so worried about all the fuss, but Shu Tian did not contact her all the while, for fear that she was too worried and was involved. But today, the situation might change. Shu Tian was anxious. She hesitated for about an hour before dialing the phone. Receiving a call from a strange number, the people on the other end did not pick it up quickly. "Hello?" Hearing this familiar voice, Shu Tian choked and said, "Tong, it''s me." Fu Qingtong bounced from the sofa when she heard her voice. "Shu Tian?!" Before Shu Tian could answer, Fu Qingtong asked in a hurry, "Are you Shu Tian?" "Yes." Walking farthest from the door, Shu Tian said in a low voice, "Tong, I have something urgent that needs your help. I don''t have much time, so I''ll tell you the most important thing. I need a pregnancy test stick, the simple one." Fu Qingtong was shocked and calmed down for a long time. "Pregnancy test stick? What do you want to do with this? Are you..." She paused and covered her mouth with her hand, speechless with surprise. "I don''t know." Shu Tian was in a trembling voice. "I hope not." "Don''t worry. I''ll bring it to you this afternoon. Don''t take it the wrong way." Under this circumstance, Fu Qingtong could onlyfort her in this way. Shu Tian nced in the direction of the door. "I''m using the police station''s phone, so I can''t talk too much. I''ll talk to you after meeting." "Okay." ... Belonging to N?velDrama.Org. At three o''clock in the afternoon, Fu Qingtong came to the police station with a pregnancy test paper, because she would have been caught with an electronic one. She was flustered when she went through the security checkpoint, but fortunately, she passed. Fu Qingtong followed the police all the way and threaded through to reach the interrogation room. When she opened the iron door and saw the thin woman sitting inside, tears immediately welled up. Long time no see, Shu Tian had lost a lot of weight. If it weren''t for her small frame, she would be out of shape. The red blood under her fair skin was faintly visible, and her eyes were swollen. At a nce, Fu Qingtong knew that she had been crying for a long time. Fu Qingtong couldn''t get any closer and she turned her back the second before her tears fell. She didn''t know why she did this and didn''t want to make Shu Tian sad. Shu Tian stepped forward to hug Fu Qingtong from behind after watching her shoulders tremble uncontrobly andforted softly, "Tong, I''m fine." She did not know that this sentence made Fu Qingtong cry even more fiercely. Fu Qingtong said anxiously and angrily, "You are certainly not! Look at what you''ve done to yourself..." Chapter 263 Chapter 263 She had not lost weight like this even when she divorced Tang Zechen. Now, she looked like she had lost more than half of her weight. "Stop crying. It''s my fault. Stop crying, okay?" Seeing how devastated she was, Shu Tian couldn''t help but pat her on the back tofort her. Fu Qingtong wiped her tears and turned around after she calmed down. Knowing that Shu Tian had also swallowed a lot of grief, Fu Qingtong could not say anything to me her. "You haven''t contacted me for such a long time. Do you know how worried I am? I will break up with you if you do this again. People always want friends to help themselves at a critical moment, but you want to push me out!" Fu Qingtong knew very well that Shu Tian was afraid to make her involved. Because of this, Fu Qingtong had a worse feeling. Fu Qingtong was an obstinate woman and always undertook everything silently. It made others heartbreaking. Shu Tian raised her hand to wipe the tears off Fu Qingtong''s face, saying to the police officer beside her. "Could you leave us alone? I need to talk with Tong." "Okay, I''m right outside the door. Miss Shu, call me if you need anything." "Thank you." Shu Tian pulled Fu Qingtong into a chair after the young police officer went out. The surveince camera was working in the room, making it inconvenient to do anything. Fortunately, both of them had a tacit understanding. While they were walking, Fu Qingtong handed the test paper from her sleeve. The surveince camera could not see clearly when their bodies touched each other. Sitting down, Fu Qingtong looked at her with worried andplicated eyes. "What the hell is going on?" Shu Tian thought for a moment before shaking her head. "There have been too many things during this period. I can''t exin it clearly in several sentences, but one thing is certain. I''m not guilty." Shu Tian didn''t care what others thought of her but her family and friends. She didn''t want to disappoint them. "Li Han is helping you in thewsuit. With his ability, he can probably clear your suspicion." Fu Qingtong didn''t know Li Han''s n. She only learned from the news that he had be Shu Tian''s Shu Tian''s mouth parted, but she kept silent for a while, only smiling bitterly. "I hope so." "Does Li Han know about this?" Fu Qingtong asked this vague question with her gaze falling on Shu Tian''s lower abdomen. Shu Tian understood and said seriously, "I don''t know, but you can''t tell him. Don''t let anyone know about this except for us." "So... How sure are you?" "Try it first." Shu Tian''s face turned a little pale when she thought she might get pregnant. "I hope not." "How can you do it yourself if it''s true and you don''t tell Li Han?" Even though the police station could amodate, it couldn''t change the fact that the police station had a problematic condition. She would not be able to hold on at all if she was pregnant. Maybe Shu Tian thought of something. Her eyes darkened. "I have my n. Don''t tell others." Looking at her best friend, Fu Qingtong felt that she didn''t understand her for the first time in years. However, when Fu Qingtong thought about what had happened recently, she felt that Shu Tian must grow up a lot overnight, even though it was a cruel experience. "Alright, I''ll keep it to myself. I''ve always been on your side; you know that." Fu Qingtong couldn''t help This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . but worry about her. She moved closer and asked in a low voice, "You have to promise me that you will be fine. I only have one friend, you. I don''t want anything to happen to you..." Fu Qingtong''s words made Shu Tian touched. Shu Tian said with red eyes, "I''ll be fine." The more Shu Tian said this, the sadder she felt. Now that she was unsure if she would be fine, she only knew that things were moving in an unexpected direction. The few test papers in her pocket would be the key to everything. "Tian, are you really okay? If you need me to do anything, say it." Fu Qingtong held her cold hand. As a good friend, Fu Qingtong could tell that something was wrong with her. Thinking for a while, Shu Tian thought of one thing. "Tong, we''ve known each other for so long. I''ve never liked to trouble others, but there is one thing I have to ask you today..." Fu Qingtong waved her hand before she could finish. "Let''s cut to the chase.." A severe expression showed on Shu Tian''s face. She took a long breath and slowly spat it out before saying with a bit of heavy tone. "My parents are getting old; please help me take care of them. My dad values reputation a lot. I haven''t contacted my family after this incident. I can only ask the police to send a message. You can go to see them if you have time. Don''t let them worry about me. Please take care of them in the future." Fu Qingtong listened to her word by word. The more she heard, the more awkward she felt. She frowned and was scared after thinking about it carefully. "Tian, what do you mean by these words? Why do I feel like you''re noting back?" Shu Tian clenched her hands under the table, but she still kept a calm expression. She even twitched the corner of her lips. "How could it be? You''ve been overthinking. Maybe I feel guilty because I haven''t contacted my family for too long." She looked very calm. Fu Qingtong took a close look at her. Although Fu Qingtong was still worried, she stopped doubting when thinking of Li Han''s help. "Don''t worry. I will take care of your parents. I''m their second daughter. I''ll visit them when I have time." Shu Tian was grateful. "Thank you, thank you really, Tong." It was time to leave after they talked for several more minutes. The police officer should not have let Fu Qingtong in because of the rules. It was not good to give her the privilege to stay too long. Fu Qingtong''s eyes lingered on her as she made her way out. Shu Tian was afraid that she couldn''t control herself, so she forced herself not to look back until the door behind her was closed again. Shu Tian knew the surveince camera was watching her. As usual, she read. After about ten or twenty minutes, she got up and went to the bathroom. Only the bathroom was a private space without surveince in the entire room. She walked steadily, but she breathed a sigh of relief after closing the door. In this narrow space, she turned her back against the wall. Her palms were already sweating. Shu Tian''s white and slender fingers trembled as she took the test paper out of her pocket. After taking off her pants, she sat on the toilet. It was as if ten thousand ants were crawling in her heart and nibbling at her flesh bit by bit. The itchy and sore feeling gradually flowed through the blood to her limbs and bones. She was seized with worry, fear, anxiety, and restlessness. It couldn''t describe her current mood with all the negative emotions. What a long and grinding waiting it was! In just a few minutes, she felt as if half a century had passed. She counted in her mind that it was almost time. She took the test paper out while looking at the bathroom ceiling. She didn''t dare to take a look at it. Her hands trembled as if she was sieving bran. "Hiss... Whoosh..." She took deep breaths many times. Her forehead and palms were sweating. She felt cold in her bones, but her body was slightly hot. Cold and hot alternately swept over her senses. She always had to look at it and face it. Clenching her teeth, she brought the test paper to her eyes after closing her eyes for a while. She looked at it, and her mind suddenly went nk. The sweat on her back rapidly came out, and she even began to breathe rapidly, looking likeck of oxygen. At such a critical moment, she was pregnant. Chapter 264 Chapter 264 The light in the bathroom was dimmer. In disbelief, Shu Tian took another test stick. When she saw that the result, she almost fell off the toilet, with cold sweat on her forehead. She struggled to put on her trousers. Then, she tried to stand up, but she was too weak, so she fell back down again. Her left hand identallynded on her lower abdomen, where it was t, but at this moment, there All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. was a life growing inside. She was surprised, but at the same time, she was filled with mixed feelings. It was as if she and the baby were connected by an invisible and wonderful thing. As she breathed, the little thing in her belly was also breathing. Only a mother could feel this special feeling. When did she get pregnant? Shu Tian didn''t know how long she had been pregnant now, so she tried to recall the date of herst period. Her period had rarely been dyed. If so, it would be dyed for only a few days. She and Li Han always took precautions, except for that time in the hospital. He had been tired, and she had been extremely nervous at that time. They had both neededfort, so they had enjoyed themselves without thinking about precautions. After that, she was involved in the case and did not take a pill. It was more than a month ago, and she did not have her period this month. Shu Tian was speechless. She forgot to take a pill only once, but she was pregnant. She was pregnant with Li Han''s child. Her mind was in a mess, filled with mixed thoughts so that she couldn''t think straight. The safest way now was to go to the hospital and have a check to make sure that she was pregnant. After all, the test stick might malfunction, but at this point, it was obviously impossible for her to go to the hospital. As long as she went to the hospital, Li Han would get the knews. She couldn''t take the risk. She didn''t dare to trust that man anymore. What would happen if he knew? They were not married, and she was used of murder. He probably would ask her to get an abortion, or they would be in much trouble. Thinking of this, Shu Tian felt a chill all over. Even stroking her belly couldn''t make her feel happy. She had to keep it a secret. Considering the test stick and the sickness, she was sure she was pregnant. She had to ept and believe the result. She loved Li Han, so when she saw the result of the stick, she was surprised but wanted to cry with happiness more. No matter how much she wanted to deny it, she couldn''t deceive herself even if she could lie to others. These mixed feelings almost drove her crazy, making her out of breath. She couldn''t imagine how he would react if she told Li Han about her pregnancy. Would he pick her up, swirl a few times, kiss her on the forehead and say, "Give birth to the child"? Or would he look at her coldly and say, "We can''t keep the child now"? Would he have the joy of being a father for the first time? Shu Tian''s eyes were red when she was thinking of how happy they would be, but she quickly shook her head. "No, he... probably won''t keep the child." Even she knew that this child hade at a bad time, not to mention the prudent Li Han. They were in trouble now, so they had no energy to wee this child. Did she need to abort the child? Shu Tian only gave it a thought but felt a bit of pain in her belly. Even though it was just an embryo, it did exist and she couldn''t help caring about it. She liked it and wanted to keep it, but she couldn''t. How sad! Shu Tian could not hold back the tears rolling in her eyes. Fearing that she would cry out loud, she quickly took a stack of tissues and covered her mouth. She bit her lips and did not make a sound, but her body trembled uncontrobly. Her left hand was gently ced on her belly. She sobbed and thought, "Baby, just give me mother a little more time. Just a little more..." Li Han had had several grueling days for thewsuit, but he had never forgotten Shu Tian. Her case would be taken to court soon. She needed to be locked up in a detention center in the suburbs and was sent there at night to avoid the reporters. He was worried about her and decided to follow. He closed the file and left for the police station. On the way, he took a nap. From time to time, the driver looked in the rearview mirror, saw him resting his head against the window, and felt pifyful for Li Han. Along the way, the driver drove steadily. When they reached the police station, he said softly, "Mr. Li, we are here." Li Han opened his eyes immediately. His eyes were bloodshot, revealing his exhaustion. Without saying a word, he opened the door, got out, and walked towards the police station. He was kind of scurrying now, evidence that he was anxious and that he was concerned about the person inside. The driver looked at the police van in the yard which was different from the private car. It was equipped with an iron outside, frightening. He sighed, hoping for a good result so that Li Han and Shu Tian could have a happy life. When Li Han got in, Shu Tian had changed into the uniform for the detention center. Fortunately, she did not have to wear handcuffs and ankles, which retained part of her dignity. Li Han nced at her clothes and his heart ached for her. He took a step forward and held her in his arms. "Bear with it for several days. I''ll get you out!" Shu Tian felt his warm embrace, but she was still cold. She stood still like a tree rooted to the spot in his arms. "Mr. Li, Miss Shu, it''s gettingte. Get in the car." The police officer reminded them from behind. The director was also waiting outside. This was not a small case, and Li Han was involved, so they had to attach great importance to it and ensure that they made no mistakes. Shu Tian and Li Han walked out, one from the left door and one right. This was the first time she had breathed fresh air outside in so many days, and she found it refreshing even at night. It turned out that freedom was so important. Shu Tian resisted the urge to cry and made a choice. On the way to the detention center, Li Han sat in the front seat while she was in the back seat. There was a barbed wire between them. For the first time, she felt real about the fact that she was a criminal. When they were about to reach the detention center, Shu Tian called out softly, "Li Han." He turned around with nervousness in his eyes. "What''s wrong?" Shu Tian looked at his eyes. She used to be joyful to see them, but now she felt pained. The sentence that "I am pregnant" was on the tip of her tongue, but she couldn''t bring herself to say it. Li Han saw her hesitant look and asked with concern, "What is it?" Shu Tian gritted her teeth and said slowly, "Do you want a child?" They were in the police van. Her abrupt question confused Li Han. After a while, he came back to his senses. His eyes darkened a little as he asked, "Why did you ask it suddenly?" Shu Tian got tense. Afraid that he would find something, she answered hurriedly, "No, I just feel that things change every second. It''s good to have a child." She had experienced a lot of serious things recently, and it was not surprising that she felt this way. However, Li Han''s mind was in a mess, so he didn''t think too much. Heforted, "I see. When this is over, we''ll get married." He had expressed his desire to marry her more than once. In the past, she had hesitated because of his parents, her parents, and how others would think of her. Now she had been used of murder and arrested, and she realized that those things were trivial. Shu Tian didn''t say anything more. When she was taken out of the van and entered the detention center, it was time to part with him. Then, she looked at Li Han in his shirt and trousers. Although he looked haggard, he was still handsome. On the contrary, she was too thin and not so pretty. Shu Tian seemed to notice the invisible gap between them. They were clearly in love with each other, but something quietly changed, and their rtionship would never be what it used to be. Li Han had no idea what she was thinking, but he could see clearly her sad look. He walked to her, regardless of the rules, grabbed the back of her neck with one hand, and pulled her to him. He lowered his head and kissed her dry and cold lips... Chapter 265 Chapter 265 Shu Tian raised her head to kiss him, with tears welling up in her eyes. She hated God for being so unfair to let lovers torture each other in this way. Li Han couldn''t imagine how heartbroken she had been when he had asked her to plead guilty. Shu Tian took a deep breath, raised her hand, and pushed him away. The armed police on both sides looked away. After a while, she gazed at the man''s eyebrows and said in a choked voice, "Bye." A breeze swept past them. It was early spring, but there was a bleakness like that inte autumn. Shu Tian was heartbroken, unable to bear the sad scene. She turned around and followed the armed police to return to her room, feeling the keen eyes on her back. Then, she looked up at the pale glow on both sides of the corridor. At this time, she did not expect that the real storm had juste. [...] A single room was avable, which had certainly been arranged in advance by Li Han. Unlike the police station, the jail contained people who did different wrongful conduct, including theft, assault, and even murder. Putting a weak person like Shu Tian in jail was like putting amb into a pack of wolves, where would be a dangerous position for Shu Tian. Shu Tian looked around after entering the single room. The room was pretty small with no windows. Without a table, there was only one bed in it. There was a small-size urinal instead of a toilet. Moreover, the room was humid, even with moss in the corner. It was because the roomcks sunshine all year round, making it smelly as well. Shu Tian had thought she could endure hardship, but she couldn''t help itching all over in such a terrible environment. "This is your room. Call the prison guard outside if you have any problems. Don''t make any noise if there is nothing." The staff was much more serious than the ones in the police station, expressionless when speaking. After all, working in such a depressing environment for a long time would make people who had been easy-going colder. Without feeling offended, Shu Tian nodded politely. "Okay, thank you." The officer nced at her and silently turned around to leave with the door closed. Shu Tian was alone in the room. It waste at night and the light was dim, somehow revealing a sense of horror. She walked to the bedside and sat down, and the thin mattress creaked. Helpless, she slowly sat on the side with her knees in her arms without lying on the bed. "Are you done? I''m going to turn off the light." A woman''s coarse voice came from outside. Shu Tian cleared her throat. "Okay, turn it off." As soon as Shu Tian finished speaking, the light bulb in the room was off and the darkness came. Without adapting to the environment, Shu Tian could see nothing in the darkness. She couldn''t help hugging her body tightly to protect her stomach. Feeling guilty, she kept muttering, "Don''t be afraid, my baby." Shu Tian really cared about the kid. Although it didn''te at an appropriate time, she could feel her motherly love for the child when thinking that Li Han was the child''s father. Shu Tian forced herself to eat something even if she had no appetite. In addition, she would be careful whenever she stood up and sat down. Her behavior apparent showed that she wanted to give birth to the child. Although this idea was unrealistic, she indeed wished to make ite true. She was not afraid of living in a harsh environment, but she was worried that the child would be unhealthy. But... Looking around at the darkness, she suddenly felt a little scared. She might not be able to protect this child at all in such a horrible environment! Dibobted, she leaned against the wall and fell asleep. The bed was too wet to sleep on it, so Shu Tian simply sat on it. Perhaps it was because the room was sombre and dark, and Shu Tian didn''t cover herself with the quilt, the woman was frozen up in the middle of the night. She opened her eyes with a cold shiver, vaguely seeing a few glimmers of lighting from the bottom crack of the door. What time was it now? Shu Tian had no idea, nor did she know how long she had slept. It should not be past six o''clock when she had to get up. Shu Tian crossed her arms, trying to relieve the coldness, but it was like a drop in the bucket. In the end, she had no choice but to grab the quilt aside and ce a corner of it on her knees. The stink of damp caused by the proliferation of bacteria rushed into her nose in an instant. Nauseous, Shu Tian finally couldn''t put up with the smell, got out of bed, and took the urinal to retch. "Oh..." At first, Shu Tian didn''t make a loud noise, but she gradually felt worse after retching more times. Moreover, the smell was terribly disgusting. When the prison guard outside heard the noise, she knocked on her door heavily, her voice tinged with the impatience of being woken up. "What''s going on?" "No, no, oh..." Before she could finish her sentence, Shu Tian vomited again. She was worried that her pregnancy would be known, but the pregnancy reaction was much more violent than she had imagined. Afraid of an ident, the guard opened the door and came in. She turned on the light, looked at Shu Tian''s pale face in the corner, frowned, and asked, "What''s the matter?" "Nothing serious!" Shu Tian quickly replied. "I''ve been having a stomachache because of eating bad food these days. I might just feel worse in a new ce. It''s not a big problem." "Shall I ask the doctor toe over and have a check?" "Please not. Never mind. I''ll get better after vomiting." Shu Tian resisted the churning feeling in her stomach and forced out a pale smile. "Trust me. It doesn''t matter." The guard was relieved. After all, it was better to do less than to do more. It would be troublesome to call the doctor now. "Okay, then you should be careful. Call me if you need anything." "Okay." Before the staff was leaving, Shu Tian asked in a hurry, "By the way, could you tell me what time it is now?" "Four thirty." It would be dawn in an hour and a half. Shu Tian heaved a sigh of relief. "Thank you." The door closed again, and even the bright light disappeared. Shu Tian stood there as if she was soaking in the cold winter water. Her throat seemed to be blocked by the salty seawater, and even breathing cost a lot of strength. Belonging to N?velDrama.Org. Li Han had promised her before he had left that it would only take a few days. She had thought that she could have endured it. After all, she had endured it for such a long time? But it was not until this moment that she realized that she could not bear it at all. It was really a minute of suffering. She could even feel her mental and physical strength slowly slipping away. The impact of the environment on a person was too great, and she had no idea who long her weak body could endure it. Li Han would never know how hard Shu Tian''s life had been when she was waiting for the result. She was still waiting for the miraculous result. She just hoped that Li Han wouldn''t let her down. Chapter 266 Chapter 266 After Fu Qingtong left the police station, she went to Red Garden Community the next day to visit Shu Tian''s parents. Shu Tian''s parents lost a lot of weight due to the worry and nervousness every day. Especially Shu Changlei who was praised for his high spirits was listless when wearing a slightly faded shirt. Ye Lihua cried so much that her eyes turned red and her hair turned white. Though knowing they may not eat this food, Fu Qingtong brought a lot of tonics from home and was still worried. "Auntie, uncle, don''t worry. I went to see Tian yesterday. She was fine. Although she was in the police station, Li Han asked people to take good care of her. She lives in a separate room and is fine." Fu Qingtong lied and didn''t tell the truth to Shu Tian''s parents in their fifties. Ye Lihua excitedly held her hand in a strong manner. "What did you say? You went to see Shu Tian!" Fu Qingtong patted the back of her hand andforted her, "Yes, auntie." "What''s going on with her? Is she in good health? Has she told you about thewsuit? When can she be released?" Ye Lihua was anxious. "I believe that she will never do anything illegal. She''s well-bred. All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. She is not such a child." "I know, auntie. Don''t worry. The case hasn''t even been heard yet. We do not know much about it. The media outside spread the news, whether it''s true or not, in order to attract attention." Shu Changlei bordered on crying. "What''s wrong with Shu Tian now? Is she okay?" "She is fine and even askes me to visit you because she was afraid that you would be worried," Fu Qingtong answered. "If she knows we''re worried about her, why hasn''t she contacted us?" Shu Changlei was angry and didn''t want his daughter to suffer. "It''s police policy not to have regr contact with the family. Uncle, don''t worry. Tian is really fine," Fu Qingtongforted them. They, the old, could not be stimted in this way. Both of them were relieved and secretly wiped away their tears. Ye Lihua cried, "We were dutiful and hardworking in this life. What did we do to get into this trouble." Shu Changlei didn''t say anything and was solemn. Fu Qingtong patted the two elders on the shoulder and gentlyforted them, "Auntie, uncle, don''t be sad. Shu Tian must be worried about you inside and would me me for your sadness. She said she would be able to go home after thewsuit end soon." "Thewsuit." Ye Lihua shed tears. "Could thewsuit be over so soon?" "Li Han is helping her. The odds are high." Fu Qingtong answered and did not know that the man had made a confession. Shu Changlei hugged Ye Lihua and sighed, "Fate... It''s all fate..." Fu Qingtong felt sad and hoped that all would end quickly so that everyone''s life could return to normal. Otherwise, everyone would be heartbroken. Fu Qingtong was tired and worried, let alone the persons involved. When looking around at Shu Tian''s house and Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua, Fu Qingtong kept praying that everything would be fine. [...] Shu Tian had spent two nights in the detention center and could not walk steadily when someone took her out. In the wet room, Shu Tian, a pregnant woman, didn''t eat good food and then became weak. Noticing that she walked unsteadily, the person beside her asked, "Are you okay, Miss Shu?" "Nothing," she answered. "You''ll go to courtter. If you feel unwell, tell me as soon as possible." "Yes, I know." Shu Tian held on and didn''t want to wait any longer. After Shu Tian was escorted into the car, an officer drove smoothly all the way. Before she reached the entrance of the court, she could feel that cars were slowly following her. "These reporters are crazy for the news!" One of the escortsined to the driver. "Of course. I guess they can make a lot of money." Shu Tian sadly listened to their conversation and wondered when she had be the talk of others. Fortunately, others could not see the inside of the car from the outside, which made her feel a little more secure. When they arrived at the entrance of the court, reporters from various mediapanies came over. Looking at SLRs and cameras, Shu Tian anxiously sat in her seat. "Miss Shu, we''ll cover your head when we get out of the carter. Please cooperate." Shu Tian looked at the dark gray cloth in the man''s hand and said decisively with clenched fists, "No, I didn''t do anything wrong. Why should I leave with my face covered?" She didn''t want to cover her head because she hadn''tmitted a crime. She didn''t do anything wrong, no matter what people thought or what the public opinion was. The police officer, a man in his early thirties, looked at her with admiration since many men did not have the courage. "We respect your choice." As the police helped her out of the car from left to right, the reporter kept taking pictures. Shu Tian could hardly open her eyes and block the light for a moment. Then she was dragged forward and heard people''s questions. "Miss Shu, I heard that Mr. Li went on the court today. May you tell us how you respond to it?" "Miss Shu, I heard that you''ve been denying that you killed someone. Can you prove that you didn''t kill anyone?" "Miss Shu,..." Shu Tian felt annoyed and quickly walked into the court hall. After the sensor door closed, she could not hear those reporters. Looking down at the smooth and bright ground beneath her feet, she felt ufortable and nervous. Then, the two staff members asked, "Miss Shu, if you are not feeling well..." "I''m fine." Shu Tian interrupted them, "Let''s go." If the trial dragged on any longer, she would throw up a lot because she was pregnant. She decided to deal with the matter as soon as possible. [...] She was taken to an office connected to the court. She was going to go into court and present all the facts to the judge andwyers. Shu Tian was very nervous and ufortable these days in custody and was afraid that it would affect the child in her belly. At this moment, a man in a neat ck suit walked up to her and stood still. His tie was neatly tied, and his hair was allbed back to his head. He was elegant and graceful. He looked very attractive in a tailored suit without many extra patterns. As he gave her a passionate kiss, Shu Tian could feel his strong and deep love for her. Chapter 267 Chapter 267 It was because of her miss for him that her heart was so tortured and uncertain. After a brief fervent kiss, Li Han pulled out the chair next to Shu Tian and sat down. He handed her the documents in his hand. "You''ve suffered, baby. Take a look at these documents. Be careful with your words in courtter. Remember. Don''t contradict my exnation." Shu Tian was slightly confused about that "my exnation"? She thought, "Did he mean his point of letting her plead guilty?" Seeing that Shu Tian lowered her head and did not speak, Li Han raised his hand to hold her pale little face, with his thumb gently across her face. "Believe me, this is all for your own good. After today, I will never let you suffer anymore." Shu Tian looked up and asked him with a half-smile, "Can I get over today?" "Yes." The man tightly grabbed her palm, which was down because of aggrievement. "Of course, you can." Shu Tian shook her head. Her eyes were red, but no tears came out yet. She had cried so many times that her tears were all dried up. She choked and muttered, "How cruel." "Baby, you have me." Li Han reached out and grabbed Shu Tian in his arms. He was afraid that she would feel helpless. Seeing herpromising look, he was pierced to the heart. "I will apany you get over today." "But this is not the way I want." Although it was useless to say this now, Shu Tian couldn''t help but speak what she thought. "I know." Li Han patted her gently on the back tofort her. He said, "There are many things we can''t change. We can onlypromise for the best result. If you weren''t the used, maybe I wouldn''t be so sneaky. But Tian, I don''t dare to bet. I can''t afford to lose you." How would Shu Tian not understand what he said? There was a small me that suddenly burned in Shu Tian''s heart. She left a little bit from his arms and looked up at him. "Li Han, I don''t care the result. I just want a fair verdict. Even if the final result is not what I expected, at least I won''t be guilty and regret it. I just can''t ept. I can''t swallow this..." Her eyes watched his. This was the first time in so long that Li Han had seen this sparkling fire in her eyes. It had been a long time. It was so long that he could only find such lively Shu Tian in his memory... Li Han really wanted to agree with her, but he just can''t. All his thoughts turned into rational and emotionless words, "Tian, I would also like to. But we just can''t." "Why we can''t? We only need to tell the truth!" She wanted to let everyone know the truth. She didn''t want to me for the guilt she hadn''tmitted. "I didn''t kill anyone. You know it. I don''t want to live with such a stain for the rest of my life!" "I believe you, but there is no evidence to support our view. If our appeal is rejected, then the sentence may be extended..." "Is your n that I plead guilty and get a penalty reducing for turning myself in, then you bail me out?" Shu Tian broke free from his arms and raised her hand to point to her left chest. "You know what? If that happens, every time I wake up and go to sleep, what I will think of is that I''m a murderer-inw. I will never have a good sleep anymore. And all people who know me would know that I''m a murderer. My family will be humiliated and they would be ashamed of me. Only I know, I''m not a murderer. But I can''t tell anyone. Li Han, this is myst chance. You said that it''s for my own good, but I can''t ept such a stain with me for the rest of my life..." What upset her the most was not being framed by Jiang Chujing, nor was it the criticism from outsiders. She was upset because that even she was crazy to vindicate herself, the man she loved most asked her not to say anything out. No one could feel how pained it was unless such a thing happened to himself. "Shu Tian!" Li Han raised his voice, hoping to wake her up. "I know you''re in pain. I know you hate my n. But what else can we do? The thing only goes this way!" She looked at the man''s eyes, which were gradually reddening, and suddenly felt something peeling from her body. This feeling was terrible empty. Yeah, he didn''t want to either. He had no choice but to do this. She thought, "Shu Tian, you put all your hopes on this man, but you forgot that he was a man, not a god. He loved you, but he couldn''t understand you 100%." "For most people, the pros and cons have to be weighed before action. You''re an adult already. You should know it. Stop bother him anymore." The moment this idea was born, Shu Tian fell into a trance and didn''t want to fight for anything, like fairness, justice, anymore. Maybe it''s because she was totally disappointed, or maybe she let go of it. Or both. Nobody knew! "Well, that''s it." It was just as what Meng Shichuan had ever said, "People will only give up when things havee to an end. But they don''t know the process is only torture." The court was about to open, and there was not enough time. Although Li Han wanted to say something more, a staff member had alreadye to call him. As awyer, he needed to go to court first. Li Han was worried about Shu Tian, but he couldn''t let the judge wait. He hugged her tightly before he left. He said to her, "Do as I said. Trust me." Shu Tian sat still and did not respond to him. She heard his footsteps getting further and further away. She did not rx until she heard the door close. Looking down at the documents on herp, Shu Tian twitched her lips mockingly. "Do as he said?" She would definitely not disappoint him. Shu Tian put the documents aside casually. A staff member beside her reminded her, "Miss Shu, you''d better go over them in advance, or you might forget them in court." "No need." Shu Tian refused coldly. "There''s no need." The staff member thought she was fully prepared so he did not say anything more. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Shu Tian stayed in her pose until someone came to open the door. Shu Tian was still wearing the clothes that the detention center gave her, which seemed to show that she was really a criminal. Two armed police, side by side, took her to the dock. Shu Tian stood still, neither humble nor pushy. Her look showed no guilty. But if her friends saw it, they would feel pity for her. This court trial involved no onlookers but only the two parties and the staff members. Shu Tian looked at Li Han, who was not far away from her. Suddenly her thoughts drifted far away. It was a weekend. Shu Tian made coffee downstairs and brought it to the study. Li Han was having a video conference and talking about some technical terms, of some she knew and some she didn''t know. Seeing the man this look, she felt that the man was shining professional light. She stood aside and waited for the conference to be over. Then she came to him and pressed his shoulders in a somewhat fawning manner. "I haven''t watched you work in court. When will I have such a chance?" They were bothwyers. Shu Tian had a deep admiration for such a big-shotwyer. At that time, he turned his wrist and turned his face slightly. "Come here." Shu Tian didn''t hear him clearly. "What?" The man motioned for her to lean over. Shu Tian bent down obediently, thinking that the man had something to say. Unexpectedly, just as she bent down, she was kissed by warm lips. "Mmm..." She panicked and pushed the man''s chest to try to escape. But the man would not let her run away. After the kiss, she was panting. The man thought it was not enough. He hugged her and pressed her against the desk, with his hands across her body up and down. Shu Tian blushed and kept trying to push the man back. "I, I''m telling you something serious!" "I''m doing that serious thing." The man actually said such words. He even didn''t bat his eyelids. Who would imagine that a few seconds before, he had been talking the business! Shu Tian felt that she was fooled and was angry. She refused to cooperate no matter what. The man was a little angry that he couldn''t do what he want to do but he couldn''t be tough. He could only coax her in the ear, "Cooperate, and you''ll have that chance. What are you resisting? Be sensible..." At that time, Shu Tian never had thought that one day she would see this man in the court in such a situation. As she was immersed in her memories, someone called her name. "Shu Tian, you can speak now." The female judge''s majestic and cold voice came from ahead. Only then did Shu Tiane back to his senses. It was her turn now. She fiddled with the ck Mike in front of her. She leaned forward but was not in a hurry to speak. Instead, she looked up at everyone present one by one. Finally, her gaze stopped on Li Han''s face. There were obvious worries and expectations, even begging, in his ck eyes. Shu Tian blinked and clenched. She felt her violently beating heart. She took a deep breath and slowly said, word for word, "I didn''t kill anyone." Chapter 268 Chapter 268 What she said surprised everyone at present. Not only Li Han, but all the judges and prosecutors turned to look at her in surprise. It was not that they hadn''t seen a confession retracted in court, but she was definitely the first to have such a big conflict with herwyer in court. The presiding judge looked at the material in his hand and said with a frown, "Please re-exin your statement with the support of the evidence you have prepared." Shu Tian had never been so brave. She felt she was like a little shrimp exiled in the deep sea. Although she knew that nothing could be changed, she still fought against fate desperately. "I said I didn''t kill anyone." She repeated the same words again, and her tone was not only not weakened but more convinced than before. She didn''t kill anyone. She knew very well that she didn''t break thew. Li Han''s face instantly darkened. It was not just a terrible expression that appeared on his face, but a terrible feeling that went deep into his bones. He had always been the most secretive and calm person in court, and now he could not calm himself down. Things were going out of control, and he didn''t like the feeling of losing control. Li Han raised his hand to signal the judge. "We apply for a ten-minute adjournment..." "No need!" Shu Tian rejected his proposal almost at the same time. Her chest heaved violently. If someone took a look at her at a closer distance, they could see her shoulders trembling slightly. She took a deep breath and tried to keep her voice as steady as possible, "I know there''s very little evidence to prove my innocence now, but even so, I still have to make a statement. With the promise of my personality and my health statement, I didn''t kill anyone, and I didn''t intend to harm anyone. Zhang Lancheng''s death has nothing to do with me. From the beginning to the end, I only gave her that injection in an aid to save her, and the person who told me about the injection was another party, the Belonging to N?velDrama.Org. intiff, Jiang Chujing." The smooth process was disrupted by her sudden speech, and the presiding judge didn''t often encounter such kind of situation. He raised his hand to hold his eyesses up and asked, "That means you denywyer Li Han''s im, right?" Hearing this, Shu Tian looked at Li Han. They were not far away from each other. They both knew that her answer would change the direction of the trial. Shu Tian knew he didn''t want her to be willful, but... She turned her face away and looked at the judge firmly, "Yes." "Do you have any evidence to support what you are saying now?" With his question, the court fell into silence which made people feel anxious. Shu Tian''s hands, which were hanging by her side, were so cold that she could hardly stretch her fingers. She gritted her teeth and frowned, "No." The judge''s expression changed slightly. After looking down at the documents in his hand to make sure that the defendant did not provide any evidence, he said with a deeper tone, "Please make a reasonable statement." Shu Tian kept her head up and did not lower a little. She said, "Justice is in the heart of the people. What I have never done is never done. I will not admit it or plead guilty." "Do you have anything else to add or exin?" Shu Tian shook her head and finally thanked the judge politely, "No, thank you." After she finished speaking, her microphone was turned off. Shu Tian stared thoughtfully at the table in front of her. In fact, her whole senses were affected by Li Han. She could imagine his expression even if she didn''t look at him. If it weren''t in the court, he would definitely have thrown her out with anger. Shu Tian curled her lips in self-deprecation and did not look anywhere else until thewsuit ended, and the result of her sentence would be announcedter. But judging from the whole process, it was basically confirmed that it was Shu Tian whomitted the murder, and the result would not be too different. Did Li Han lose the case? Shu Tian didn''t know. It shouldn''t be counted as his failure. After all, he wanted to strive for acquittal, and he probably had already gotten the result he wanted. After getting out of court, normally speaking, Shu Tian should be taken away in handcuff this time. But Li Han managed to meet her by pulling strings. They met in a small room, which was very crowded and narrow. "Why did you do this, huh?" There was a chill and hostility on the man''s body, and he looked very disappointed and anxious. "Didn''t I tell you not to speak casually? You must not contradict my words. Why didn''t you follow my words?" "I heard that." Shu Tian leaned against the wall and said, "But I can''t do as you said." "Ha," Li Han chuckled. The emotions he had suppressed for days were on the verge of breaking down. He asked, "So are you satisfied now?" "I''m not satisfied." Shu Tian did not conceal anything and said, "They will only give me a heavier sentence." Li Han stared at her, who looked so weak and fragile that it seemed she could be crushed with only a little strength, but she was more courageous and stubborn than anyone else. "Then why didn''t you listen to me earlier? Why were you only willing to give up until it reached such a point? You..." "If I do as you say, I will really be desperate." When thewsuit was over, Shu Tian felt much more peaceful in her mind. God knew how much strength it took her to say those words in court, and she almost couldn''t hold on. "Li Han, people are born to die. I''m never afraid of what happens to me. All I want is to live a clean life and be innocent." She raised her hand to caress his side face and felt a dull pain in her heart. "I know you''ve put a lot of effort into this case, but I hope you understand one thing. It''s not me who ruined it, but Jiang Chujing. She''s the culprit..." "That''s enough!" The man interrupted her in a low voice, "It could be better. Why did you do that? Do you know how bad this result is for you? Shu Tian, this is not a family affair. You need to be extremely careful with every step you take instead of being impulsive!" "Impulsive?" When Shu Tian heard this word, she wanted tough. "You said I was... Impulsive?" Her insistence, her hidden scars, everything she had experienced in this matter werepletely denied by him with such a derogatory word. Shu Tian''s raised hand was put down again. At this moment, she didn''t want to say anything. She felt so despised and unimportant. "Don''t look at me like that." Li Han could not endure the sad look in her eyes. He cared about her too much and became a little irrational because of her behavior which was beyond his expectation. "All these results are caused by your willfulness." "I''m willful..." Shu Tian giggled. It sounded a little scary in the quiet room. Herughter grew from little to louder and finally disappeared in her ears again. The mockery in her eyes was slowly reced by determination and hatred. There was nothing sadder than the despair in her heart. At this moment, she really andpletely became desperate about him. Her eyes were filled with tears, burning with fragility, and the smile on her dry lips was unsettling. She said, "Li Han, remember what you said today." Chapter 269 Chapter 269 This conversation ended on a sour note. Shu Tian was escorted to the detention center. Looking at the surroundings there, she sighed again that human beings were of great potential. No matter how bad the environment was, as long as they got used to it, they would be indifferent. Like now, sitting on this wet bed, she didn''t feel the uneasiness and difort which she had when she first came here. As long as she got used to them, everything would seem to happen naturally. This feeling made Shu Tian scared. She was fearing that her enthusiasm and thoughts would be erased in such an environment. From Li Han''s anger and the atmosphere of the court, it could be felt that the result of this trial would be more serious than what she had expected. But she still had to wait since the real written judgment would take about a month to be issued. What the result would be? Would it be fixed-term imprisonment or life imprisonment? How long would the fixed-term one be? Ten years, twenty years, thirty years, or even more? Shu Tian had no courage to further think. She wrapped her arms around her knees to warm herself up as if she could only dispel the oppressive chill in this position. "Number 0485!" At this moment, a high voice sounded outside the door, which belonged to the prison guard in charge of her area. Now she didn''t have a name, but only a string of cold numbers that were easy to remember: number 0458. "Here!" She stood up from the bed and walked to the door. There was a small push and pull iron window which could be opened from the outside to see others'' faces. "There''s a call for you. Do you want to answer it?" The attitude of the prison guard was very impertinent and his words also sounded impolite. Hearing that, Shu Tian felt very confused. At this very juncture, was the call from Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua? Thinking of her parents, Shu Tian could hardly retain herposure, "Yes. I''ll answer it!" This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. The guard cast a nce at her and then opened the door to let her out. She still wore the handcuffs, but there were no anklets on her ankles. Li Han probably had pulled a lot of strings to make it. Shu Tian walked into a room dedicated to answering the phone. It was a transparent one with several tables inside. There was a phone at the corner of the table that could only be connected but could not be called out. She picked it up and answered carefully, "Hello?" "Hello, it''s me." Unexpectedly, it was a charming male voice. Shu Tian was confused, "Who are you?" "Have you forgotten my voice so soon? It seems that I have to say a few more words when I see you next time." The man was skilled at making fun of her. There was only one person who could speak to her in this tone...Meng Shichuan. Shu Tian could not help but tighten her grip on the phone. Before she could speak, the man at the other end of the phone seemed to have read her feelings and said first, "Don''t be nervous. Why are you always so afraid of me?" She didn''t reply. Meng Shichuan stopped teasing her when he heard her breathing, which had be rapid because of the nervousness. "What''s the trial going on today? How are you feeling?" Shu Tian''s eyshes began to slightly tremble. She swallowed and then answered, "Not good." "In my opinion, you must be unable to restrain yourself from retracting your confession in court, right?" Shu Tian''s heart skipped a beat and then she asked with a frown, "How do you know that?" Why? Meng Shichuan smiled, "Because I know you." This woman had a kind of magic that made people couldn''t help exploring more from her. Every time he saw her petite body, he always wanted to see how much energy it had contained. Shu Tian partly closed her eyes with a sigh and then said, "Mr. Meng, you do know me very well." Her affirmation stunned Meng Shichuan. From their first meet to now, they had contracted each other many times. But it was the first time he heard her...affirmation for him. "It''s my pleasure." "But you don''t only want me to praise you by calling me now, do you?" Hearing this, Meng Shichuan suddenlyughed. His vocal cords vibrated and made a deep sound that was as pleasant as that of the strings of a cello being plucked. "You''re right. I do have other purposes." He paused for a moment and said, "Still remember what you have promised me before?" Shu Tian certainly understood what he meant, but this man was faster than she had imagined. He had already gotten the news not long after she left court. But... "I just said that I would consider it, but I didn''t promise you." Her calm reply made Meng Shichuan feel that things were getting more interesting now. "Then have you made your decision?" Shu Tian pursed her thin lips tightly and let them go after a long time. Then she answered, "Now, there''s no need to wait for the trial results." "So?" "I should get a severe sentence. I don''t know what Li Han will do with it." Her voice sounded unperturbed, but underneath it was her helplessness and confusion. Imprisoned here, she was unable to do or know anything. Apart from the passive wait, she had no other way to save herself and was even not allowed to have the thought of doing that. "Shu Tian, you''re stronger than any woman I''ve ever met." Meng Shichuan suddenly said such a sentence to her. Shu Tian got a little bewildered because of his words, "Why do you say that?" "Because I like you when you are so strong." Having finished his words, Meng Shichuan found that he also seemed to be a little funny. He sneered at himself, "Do you want to wait for the verdict?" "I...haven''t decided whether to leave or not." "Listen." Meng Shichuan ignored her hesitations and then said to her word by word in a serious tone and a low voice, "On the day the verdict is to be issued, you will definitely go to the court. If you go there, you will return back. My man will drive you back. The code for you to contact is ''I want to go to the toilet''. He will reply to you ''wait a minute''. If it goes like this, that person will be credible. Then he will help you get away on the way back. And if you don''t want to leave, just tell him and then he will send you back safely. I will have a n B to let you make your choice." Shu Tian''s heart tightened. She didn''t expect that he had arranged such a detailed n. Suddenly, she remembered something and said ¡°damn it¡± in her heart, "This phone can record!" "It''s okay. I''ve already dealt with it. You don''t have to worry." "But..." "Think about it. Although I have threatened you many times, this is thest chance for you to leave." Meng Shichuan was more serious than ever. "Don''t worry, as long as you''re willing to leave with me, I won''t prevent you from returning back, and I''ll give you a lot of protection. As for my purposes, they are very simple. You once saved my life and I should repay you for that. And another one is..." Shu Tian pricked up her ears, asking, "What?" But Meng Shichuan didn''t finish his sentence, "Forget it. I''ll tell you face to face in the future." After he finished speaking, he was about to hang up when Shu Tian hurriedly called him, "Meng Shichuan!" She would only call him by his name every time she was in an emergency, instead of a polite and annoying "Mr. Meng." The man paused and then put the phone back to his ear, "Anything else?" Shu Tian put her other hand, which was originally ced behind her, on phone now as if she could ask more confidently in this way. The expression in her eyes looked veryplicated. Since time was limited, she had no time to think about it and just blurted out, "You like me..." Chapter 270 Chapter 270 This question nailed Meng Shichuan to the ground. It was as if an invisible had covered his whole body. For the first time, he felt clear that his blood was clotting in his bones and he was tied up. His heart was beating a little fast, his mind drifting like never before. Meng Shichuan closed his eyes and raised his left hand to press the center of his eyebrows. His temples throbbed, reminding him how excited he was because of her words. Shu Tian waited quietly. This question was very important to her, so she needed to know Meng Shichuan''s attitude. "Not really but I do appreciate you." Meng Shichuan gave her a very pertinent answer and said, "What''s wrong? Are you interested in me?" "..." Shu Tian breathed a sigh of relief and said, " You think too much. I don''t even like you. Belonging to N?velDrama.Org. "It won''t bete to say that when you get out of prison." Meng Shichuan stopped talking to her and said, "I''ll go." As soon as he finished speaking, the phone was cut off. Listening to the busy signal, Shu Tian slowly pulled down thendline and turned to open the door to leave the room. "Are you done?" The prison guard was waiting at the door. Shu Tian nodded and said, "Yes." The two of them walked back together. On the way, the prison guard asked her casually, "Who called?" Shu Tian frowned and tried to suppress the panic in her heart and answered, " From home." "Well." Fortunately, the prison guard only replied faintly and did not think much. Shu Tian walked all the way to her room and passed by many collective prisons. There were at least seven or eight people inside, or a dozen at most. Each of the persons inside looked unfriendly. When she passed one asionally, she did not even dare to take a look for fear of causing trouble. Although no one said it, Shu Tian could feel that they had longined about her as a "Neer" who could live in a single room and eat alone. They just didn''t have the opportunity to trouble her. Shu Tian didn''tpletely rx until she returned to her room. She raised her hand to touch her lower abdomen, thinking that her stomach should not change much in a month''s time and she should cherish her life, even if it was not for her but the child. [...] On the other hand, when Jiang Chujing learned that Shu Tian''swsuit was not going well, she was extremely excited. For so many years, she had never been so happy since she fell ill. She thought, "Bitch, you will be sent into jail finally by me as you dare to fight with me." Jiang Chujing thought smugly. The feeling that she couldpletely upy Li Han alone filled her mind again. She kept fantasizing about the time when Li Han was with her... At the same time, her body recovered well. Although she had been always told to be careful by George, she was fine in basic signs. As long as she could see the light, she could move around in the hospital. Just as she was trying her best to see Li Han, she heard the bad news. Ling Junze and George walked into the ward together and they kept talking about something with a long file clipboard in their hands until they stood at the head of her bed. Jiang Chujing was confused and asked, "Doctor Ling, George, what''s wrong?" "Here is the case. I''ve seen your recent health report. You recover very well, and the data are rtively stable. In view of theprehensive assessment in these aspects, I suggest that you go back to New Zend for rest." Ling Junze''s tone was as gentle as ever, but what he said made Jiang Chujing feel like falling into an ice cer. "Back to New Zend?!" She was so surprised that even her voice was harsh. "Why do you want me to go back? I''ve been adapted to stay here very well. I don''t want to go back!" "That''s what Li Han meant." Ling Junze''s words sessfully made her lose all her reactions and she was frozen for half a minute before she regained her senses. She said, "You mean... It''s Han who asks me to leave?" "Yes." Ling Junze didn''t want to yact with her, so there was no fluctuation in his eyes. He said, "This is also good for you. You should have rested quietly with regard to your illness. And my hospital here is a general hospital, which can''t bepared to a sanatorium." Jiang Chujing forced a smile and said, "I think this ce is very good..." "New Zend will only be better over there." Ling Junze didn''t give her a chance at all. "For your own sake, you should go back." "But..." Jiang Chujing was obviously panicking. She never expected Li Han to do such a thing without saying a word. "Han didn''t tell me to leave. I..." "Then you suspect that I made the decision on my own?" What annoyed Ling Junze most was her innocent look, which was so fake that made him disgusted. "You can call him now and ask him yourself." Originally, he didn''t like Jiang Chujing. Now he hated her even more as Shu Tian had such a thing in his hospital. He thought if he wasn''t her doctor, he wouldn''t even want to see her. It was impossible for Jiang Chujing to get off the hook. Since she couldn''t call Li Han right now, she started to make a scene. She said, "I won''t believe it until Han tells me personally." Ling Junze said impatiently, "He''s not free." "Then I''ll wait for him to be free." Jiang Chujing sensed the hostility in his words and hardened her attitude. "I can wait for a few days. You won''t kick me out of the hospital because of personal emotions, will you, Doctor Ling?" "Sure. Even for Li Han''s sake, I won''t kick you out. Don''t worry." It would be good if Ling Junze did not say it, but once he said it, it was embarrassing for Jiang Chujing. She thought that now he said politely because it was all for Li Han''s sake. But why did she feel his tone was like he was sending people away? Jiang Chujing was very annoyed, but she knew that it was not the time to quarrel, so she turned to look at George beside her and said, "George, am I allowed to be transferred now?" George usually stood by her side, because after all, he had been with her for so long, and he had some affection for her, but this time he nodded for the first time and said, "No problem." "..." Jiang Chujing frowned slightly." Are you sure? I have to take a ne and travel a long way. What if I have an ident during this time? Who will be in charge, you? George had never seen Jiang Chujing such aggresive. In his impression, she was a very quiet and delicate Chinese woman, not as noisy and fierce as she was now. George sensitively sensed a ferocious expression in her eyes, like a knife with a fierce aura stabbing him, which was very ufortable. He thought she waspletely different from the Jiang Chujing he knew before. George spread out his hands, mostly showing helplessness. He said, "When you came to China, your health was even worse. I believe you can leave smoothly this time." Jiang Chujing sneered and did not speak. No matter how many people were present, she raised her feet and turned over toy down on the bed. With her attitude tough and unreasonable, she said, "I have a headache now. I don''t want to talk to you. Please go out." Tian Sangsang couldn''t bear to hear it. But when she was about to speak, she was grabbed by Ling Junze. She looked up and saw he shook his head. Ling Junze let go of her hand and said to the person on the bed, "Since you don''t give up, let Han tell you himself. As long as you can bear it, it''s okay." Jiang Chujing felt terrible. There was something vicious in his words. "Are you threatening me?" Ling Junze was not in a hurry, and his tone was still calm. He said meaningfully, "You''ll know if I''m threatening you or not." Chapter 271 Chapter 271 It turned out that Ling Junze hadn''t threatened her. Li Han came to the hospital on the third day morning in a suit that fit him very well and was serious. The verdict of Shu Tian''s case had not been delivered yet, and there were still many uncertainties. He''d been too busy to have any rest and only slept for about three hours a day. When Jiang Chujing saw him, she was both worried and annoyed and wondered why he did these things for that woman. He tried his best to deal with Shu Tian''s case and left his own life in a mess. She had never seen Li Han like this before, and she was full of hatred and jealousy towards Shu Tian and everything rted to her. Li Han no longer looked at Jiang Chujing in the adoring way he used to do. All there was left in his eyes was aversion. Although he worked to conceal it, Jiang Chujing still noticed the change. Jiang Chujing knew that Li Han med her for the case and even suspected her. Seeing the man walk in, Jiang Chujing immediately stood up from the bed and forced a smile. "Hi." He would ask her about her condition if it were in the past. It was their only topic, which had made her quite sad. But now she realized that things could be worse, because instead of asking how she was feeling with concern, he said coldly, "You don''t want to go back to A Country?" He cut to the chase. Jiang Chujing cringed and brushed her hair behind her ear. "Doctor Ling asked me to leave all of a sudden and said it was what you wanted. I thought..." "It is what I want," Li Han interrupted her impatiently, "What''s the problem?" "Han..." Jiang Chujing was startled. she gaped at him with widened eyes. "What''s wrong with you?" "I should be the one who asks that." Li Han took two steps forward and looked down at Jiang Chujing. She''d got her color back on her face now. Li Han thought of Shu Tian''s ashen and haggard face in the detention center and felt guilty. In just a blink of an eye, Jiang Chujing had changed ces with Shu Tian and he just watched it happen without being able to protect his beloved woman. All these thoughts made it hard for him to face Jiang Chujing. She reminded him of all Shu Tian''s sufferings and his ineptitude. Jiang Chujing was good at acting and looked so innocent. "Han, what do you mean?" "I''ve asked George and he said you can be discharged from the hospital now. It''s good for both you and me that you return to A Country. I can''t take care of you here. Don''t worry. I''ll send someone to see Belonging to N?velDrama.Org. to everything after you go abroad." Jiang Chujing did not expect him to be resolute. As if she lost all her strength, she flopped onto the bed. "Han, you know I don''t want to leave you. Even if you can''t be with me, I don''t want to leave you!" She burst into tears. "That''s never what I want. I just want to be in the same city as you. That''s all." The man''s eyes darkened. He snorted, "Really?" Without waiting for her answer, Li Han added, "You are well aware that you want more than that." Her greed and desire had already been exposed after all these things. "I don''t!" Jiang Chujing objected loudly, "I know you''ve been angry with me because of thewsuit. You think I framed Shu Tian, but thew is fair. If she did nothing wrong, how would she be sentenced? I know you love her, but you can''t let your feelings warp your moral judgment!" Moral judgment? Li Han stared at her, finding the two words ridiculous. He sneered and gazed at her with frosty eyes. "Chujing." He suddenly called her name in a low voice and became solemn. "Don''t let me get anything on you." Jiang Chujing felt sad suddenly. After sounding her out all this time, he put his suspicions on the table atst. She looked away and said in a wavery voice. "Han, what do you mean? I don''t understand..." "It''s good that you don''t understand." Li Han did not rify his words. Staring at her with an intimidating scowl, he continued, "Get prepared for leaving. I''m not discussing this with you. It''s decided." "How can you be so cruel?" Jiang Chujing sobbed, making her final struggle. Li Han used to soften his heart when she cried, but it didn''t work now. "Save your tears. They disgust me." Disgust¡­ She cried so sadly but he only felt disgusted? Jiang Chujing clenched her fists. "My condition is stable now so I don''t have to leave. Besides, my parents were buried in J City. Even for them, I shouldn''t leave." There was no telling when she would be able toe back if she left this time. "You remind me." Li Han suddenly cracked a mocking smile. "It''s been so long since you came back but you''ve never visited the graves of your parents." A sh of panic shed through Jiang Chujing''s eyes. Shooting herself in the foot, she averted her face in a fluster and stammered, "I''m nning to go¡­" "A month." Li Han cut in, his tone brooking no arguments. "You have to go back to A Country in one month regardless of your health condition." He didn''t feel like staying there for any more seconds and left after finishing his words. Jiang Chujing came apart at the seams and screamed, "Why! Why are you doing this to me? Why the hell are you doing this to me?" Chapter 272 Chapter 272 Li Han paused, without looking back, "Why not? It''s the best result." "Won''t you feel sorry for my parents? They wanted to put my life at risk for you. I can ept that you don''t like me, but I can''t ept that you decide to send me away without asking me for my opinion! I This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . don''t want to go back. I have the right to choose!" Jiang Chujing could put up with a lot, but she would not let Li Han leave her. Every time he was not by her side, she would feel ufortable. Li Han felt that her words were ridiculous. Jiang Chujing meant she couldn''t ept it, but Li Han thought it was just an excuse for her selfishness. "You did have the right to choose before. I gave you a chance. It seems that I shouldn''t have provided such a chance. Now things get so bad. Both of us are at fault. It was because of your parents that I didn''t put you in a corner." If he was ruthless, he would have stopped her treatment before thewsuit ended. Li Han would remember her parents'' kindness forever. However, it didn''t mean he would show mercy to her. Jiang Chujing raised her hand and pointed at her heart, tears streaming down her face, "In that case, why do you let me live another month? Do you want to watch my squirm? Han, I love you. I just like you. Am I wrong?" She questioned aggressively as if the world owed her everything. She seemed to have forgotten who the murderer was. Li Han said relentlessly, "A monthter, Shu Tian''s trial will be over." "Shu Tian. Shu Tian!" Jiang Chujing repeated the words with a wry smile, "It''s for Shu Tian again." Li Han ignored her words, "If you want to leave early, I won''t stop you." Li Han said in a calm and cold voice as if he was talking to a stranger. Jiang Chujing couldn''t tell that there was no concern in his voice. Li Han was indifferent to her. "And," he paused a few seconds. Before Li Han left, he spoke in a resonant voice, turning his back to her and tilting his head slightly, "I don''t love you, from start to finish." From this angle, she could see the sarcasm from the corner of his mouth. Li Han left. He closed the door of the ward behind him. Jiang Chujing was left alone sitting by the bed. Silence reigned the room as if no one had evere. The dust floating in the air made jostling movements. She felt the dust was also mocking her. "Look, you''re nothing without Shu Tian." "Why!" Jiang Chujing suffered a mental breakdown, screaming. She rushed to the table and threw everything on it to the ground like a maniac. On hearing the sound in the ward, some medical workers rushed in. They were afraid that something would happen to her. But she ignored them and smashed everything she could pick up into pieces. The room soon turned into a mess. One of the medical workers was hit on the arm by the medical box because she was close to Jiang Chujing. There was a pretty big bruise. Luckily, it didn''tst very long. Someone rushed in and controlled her. Jiang Chujing was pushed against the bed, with her face down. Someone inserted a needle into the umbilical veinher of her arm. The doctor sedated her. Half a minuteter, the skinny girl felt weak all over, with hair disheveled. Shey on the bed hopelessly like a dull, staring at the ceiling above her head. It was a tragic oue for her. Jiang Chujing gradually lost consciousness. A second before she fell into aa, the scene revived in her mind. Li Han left without looking back. He also said something cruel. He didn''t love her, from start to finish. Jiang Chujing became unconscious. It was a long time to wait for the result of thewsuit. In prison, Shu Tian had a series of routines, including getting up, training, and receiving education. Nothing more. Shu Tian lived a leisure life in prison. She knew that Li Han must have pulled strings. Otherwise, her life would be a living hell. The environment was important to everyone. Trapped in the damp room, Shu Tian was upset. What was worse, her morning sickness became more serious due to the mental and physical torture. The dishes in prison went against her stomach. Although the food served to her was the best, the fat made her feel nauseous. Every time Shu Tian ate, she tried her best not to retch. She was afraid that the guard would find that. During this period, Li Han had nevere here. Because of her confession in court, it was much more difficult to reach a verdict. She knew that Li Han had to do many things. He had called her twice. Shu Tian asked him, "Will I get bail?" Li Han remained silent for a few seconds on the other end of the phone, "I''ll try my best." Hearing his words, Shu Tian knew what Li Han was doing. It had been about a month now. A prison guard called her, "Number 0485, it''s your turn." The moment Shu Tian walked out of the ward, her heart started racing. Step by step, she walked towards the gate of the prison. Suddenly, the car used to escort her came into sight. Shu Tian stood still at the gate, looking up at the sky. It was sunny. There was a blue sky and white clouds. But she was in a mood to enjoy the scenery. "Hurry up. We''re running out of time." Someone urged her. Shu Tian shifted her gaze from the sky and walked towards the car. It was not a long way, but she walked cautiously, feeling nervous. No one knew what she was thinking. Shu Tian put her hands to her sides, trembling. When Shu Tian got in the car, she took a look at the driver. He was a man in his forties, wearing a dark blue uniform. His hair was short and neat. Shu Tian fixed her eyes on his face for less than three seconds. Then she shifted her gaze without a trace. Shu Tian behaved herself while sitting in the car. Shu Tian had a smooth journey. After a while, they reached the court. After getting out of the car, Shu Tian was taken to a room. Li Han had arrived, waiting for her with a serious look. She guessed he had got the verdict. "You got the verdict, right?" Shu Tian asked calmly. "Yes," Li Han replied softly. His face grew grave. "Tell me. I''ll ept whatever fate decides." The calm and fearless in her eyes left Li Han with heartache. Silence reigned the room. They could hear the clock ticking. It ticked away on the wall. "Twenty-five years." Chapter 273 Chapter 273 Although she had mentally prepared, when she heard the number, Shu Tian''s hand on her knee could not help but clench. She smiled miserably and looked away, saying, "It''s good to have such a result for an intentional murder." She knew that he had tried his best. "Tian..." Li Han''s throat ached with every word he said. Li Han endure the pain and said, "I want to bail you out, but it is difficult for the time being." "I know. This is the price of my willfulness." At the moment the confession was withdrawn, Shu Tian knew her result. The two looked at each other with sadness. The people who loved each other were torturing each This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. other. Every cell in their bodies was moring for a kiss and hug, but they could not. "I am looking for a personal favor, but this matter is too much of social concern. Perhaps no one dares to respond for a while. It will be subdued soon. I won''t keep you waiting for too long." Shu Tian looked at the man in front of her. Because of thiswsuit, he was no longer invincible as before. He was anxious, worried, sad, and fragile... He had never been like this before, and this made her feel sorry and distressed. She thought he should be tall and handsome, and that he shouldn''t have be like this because of her. Li Han felt depressed. He reached into the inner pocket of his suit and took out a box of cigarettes. Just as he was about to light it at his fingertips, Shu Tian stopped him. The man looked up at her. "What''s wrong?" Although she had always asked him to smoke less, she rarely stopped him directly. Shu Tian was concerned about the child in her belly and looked at him with a natrual expression, "Smoke less. You cough recently." Was it the reason? Li Han took the cigarette off her lips. Before she could breathe a sigh of relief, he changed his position and picked it up. The lighter was already in his hand. "I''ve been upsettely. I always want to smoke." He had no other bad hobbies, and only smoke could ease his worries. As he spoke, he had already put the lighter to his lips. With a click, his thumb pressed the knob of the lighter, and a warm red light rose from the nozzle of the lighter and reflected his sexy chin. Li Han narrowed his eyes and took a deep breath. His deep dark eyes narrowed slightly as if he was enjoying this moment. The choking gas slid down the nose, down the windpipe, into the lungs, and into the cells in the lungs. That was the feeling that made people want to smoke. White smoke slowly exhaled from the tip of his nose and drifted to Shu Tian with the air. The smoke was not thick, and she did not hate it fine before. But at this moment, she felt repulsed. Breathing in the wisps of smoke, she was like inhaling cigarette oil. She felt all the oil was burning in her stomach. She felt ufortable and wanted to vomit. At first, Shu Tian could bear it, but as he continued to smoke, the smell of smoke became heavier. Shu Tian had the stronger desire to vomit. She held on, not wanting to look abnormal. She kept praying in her heart that Li Han would stop smoking sooner. Almost a minute passed... Seeing the white cigarette getting shorter and shorter on his fingertips, Shu Tian was d that it was about to burn out. All of a sudden, the feeling of nausea became more obvious, and a gust of air reached her throat. No matter how much she controlled, she could not control the reaction of her body. Shu Tian immediately got up and rushed into the bathroom. She opened the toilet lid,y half on it, and retched. A spasm in her stomach made her feel ufortable as if her whole stomach had been folded up. She thought she could stop vomiting after a few seconds, but she didn''t expect it to get worse. The symptoms did not ease it at all. After retching several times in a row, her throat was burning and painful. Li Han was shocked by her. He sat outside for a second or two and did not react. By the time he regained his senses, she had already sat on the ground. He strode over and scooped her up. His dark eyes were filled with concern, and he stared at her anxiously. "What''s going on?" Shu Tian wanted to say that she was fine, but when she opened her mouth, the disgust swept over her again. She vomited for a long time. There was not much in her stomach, but only some bitter gall. When nausea eased a little, she said faintly, "I... I''m fine." "You still say you''re okay now?" Li Han frowned. He was heartbroken and he cared about her body. He was angry that she didn''t take it seriously. Seeing that she was ufortable, he was so nervous. He asked in a lower voice, "What''s the matter?" Shu Tian''s eyes were red because she felt wronged or vomited for too long. Her skin was fair, and the red eyes were even more obvious. He was so anxious and angry, but what could he do? Looking at her tearful eyes, he could not scold her. "Can you stand up?" When he spoke again, his tone softened a lot. Shu Tian tried to support herself on the edge of the toilet with both hands and got up trembling. With his help, she walked to the sink, turned on the tap, picked up a handful of cold water to rinse her mouth to suppress nausea. Li Han took out a tissue and carefully wiped the water stains off her mouth. Looking at her pale little face, he said nervously, "Come with me to the hospital." Shu Tian was shocked, "What?" "I said you should go to the hospital." "I won''t." She refused without thinking. How could she go to the hospital now? If she went to the hospital, he would know that she was pregnant. "Just go with me." He became serious. He always took her matters seriously. "I had got a run yesterday. I only vomited once today. It doesn''t matter." Shu Tian avoided Li Han''s gaze when she said this. The man narrowed his eyes and a look of consideration shed through his eyes. He asked, "What have you eaten?" "Cabbage, tofu, wax gourd, and soup." Shu Tian recalledst night''s meal. To be honest, she was afraid that Li Han would ask who made the meals, and she did not dare to lie. "I think the wax gourd is a little sour. I have a stomachache." Shu Tian pulled out another tissue, then moved to hide her panic. Even without looking up, she could feel the two burning eyes rolling back and forth on her body. "When was yourst period?" He remembered that she would feel ufortable in her period, but recently... Chapter 274 Chapter 274 Shu Tian was flurried when he suddenly asked. This topic was too sensitive, especiallybined with her reactions just now... She was a little flustered. Fortunately, she didn''t look good at first. Otherwise, she would have been caught out by him. She thought about the day of her period. "It''s at the end of this month. There are still a few days ." "How many days?" "It''s not that urate. It can be earlier orter than expected." Shu Tian didn''t want him to ask further and diverted the topic. "What''s wrong? Are you worried that I''ll be ufortable during my period?" "No, it''s not about that." Li Han didn''t know much about girls'' periods, but he believed that Shu Tian''s reaction was weird. He held her cold little hand. "Let''s go to the hospital." "I was fine." Shu Tian struggled but was in vain. "It''s true. I didn''t lie." She felt that this was the best lie she had ever told in her life. Perhaps it was the courage given by the child in her belly. "Go to the hospital to do aprehensive checkup so that I can rest assured." As Li Han spoke, he led her out. Shu Tian frowned and resisted. "Li Han, I need to make an application in advance before going out to see a doctor, and the escort car is waiting downstairs now. How can I leave like this?" "Let me find someone to do me a favor..." "Do a favor?" Shu Tian interrupted him toughly even though she was already in a panic. "I am now used of murder. It''s hard to get a reduced sentence or bail. I have to perform well. I can''t do anything I want regardless of any favor." Li Han held her tightly and didn''t say anything. He was thinking about something. Shu Tian was almost out of breath. She was so nervous that she lowered her head and shook their hands. "If you''re really worried, then we can go to the hospital tomorrow and make an application today in advance." "I''m worried about your condition now." "I won''t vomit all the time and there''s a doctor here." Shu Tian knew that this man only yielded to soft approaches but rejected force, so she softened her attitude. "Okay?" Li Han saw that only her face was a little pale after she vomited. Thinking of what she had just said, he finally agreed. "Then go back to make an application. You must go to the hospital tomorrow." "Yes, I see." Shu Tian agreed without hesitation. She did not dare to look into his eyes. She was afraid that she could not control her emotions. Tomorrow... Things might have been changed totally differently. She couldn''t get bail but she wouldn''t just sit back and wait. So she wouldn''t let Li Han know about the child. Shu Tian and Li Han went out of the court together. She was taken away by the armed police at the gate. Li Han stood not far away and watched her get into the car. The door of the escort car was closed, and it was another world. In this world, Shu Tian found that the driver on the way back had been changed. Although the new driver''s haircut was just the same as the previous one, he was obviously younger than the one in the morning, and his expression was not as gloomy as the previous one. The car trembled when started and Shu Tian felt so nervous. She did not say a word or look at the driver. She sat quietly at the behind as usual. The car drove smoothly back. The two of them did not talk until the car drove through a tunnel, which was the middle of the journey. The car was driving in the tunnel, and the noise was much louder than usual. Shu Tian fidgeted and moved forward a little. Her heart was beating fiercely. She knocked on the iron railing door between the two of them. She took a deep breath and said lightly "I want to go to the bathroom." The driver immediately nced at the rearview mirror. Shu Tian knew that he was looking at her. It''s so quiet as if everything stopped. There was a Whoosh sound in her ear, the sound of the car rubbing against the air. Shu Tian was so nervous that she broke out in a cold sweat in just a few seconds. The man suddenly stepped on the elerator, and replied in a cold and hoarse voice, "Just wait." Just wait. Shu Tian heard the two words urately. She had never done anything like this before, so she had goosebumps all over her body and was finally relieved now. She leaned closer to the iron gate and whispered, "Are you Meng Shichuan''s subordinate?" "Yes." The man spoke very little and looked remorseless. Shu Tian asked regardless of her fear, "What are you going to doter?" This time, the man did not remain silent and quickly replied, "Mr. Meng asked me to give you a message." Shu Tian was a little distracted. "What?" A deep, suppressed male voice came again. "Go or stay?" The expression on Shu Tian''s face froze. She knew that this was thest chance Meng Shichuan gave her. If she wanted to leave, she should not go back. If she chose to stay, she would have to bear everything that would happen in the future. Shu Tian quietly clenched her teeth. Without this child, she would not have chosen to leave now, but... This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . She cannot regret the child now! Whether to go or stay? The question was so cruel and terrifying to her. Shu Tian felt that she had been struggling and hesitating for a long time, but it was only a while actually. There was not so much time for her to make her mind slowly. She had to make the right choice quickly. The answer came out in her heart. The reality was forcing her to lower her head. Her eyes were filled with tears. When she looked up again, her confusion dissipated, leaving only her courage. "I''ll go." After receiving this affirmative answer, the driver gradually sped up the car. Looking at the rapidly retreating scenery outside the window, Shu Tian was still a little flustered. "Driving so fast, is it okay?" "Miss Shu, don''t worry. Nothing bad will happen. Even if something happens, I will ensure your safety." After saying that, the driver took something out. Something ck and very small. After pressing a button, a sharp knife popped out of that thing. Then, he used this knife to cut the barbed wire between the front seat and the back seat of the car. Before Shu Tian could be surprised, she heard the driver say, "Miss Shu, please climb into the passenger seat now." "Me? climbing over?" Shu Tian looked at the cut hole. "Yes, just do as I say." Although the hole was notrge, fortunately, she still climbed into the passenger seat in difficulty as she was thin. However, it was not over yet. Just as Shu Tian sat down, the driver beside her suddenly slid down to the bottom of the main driver''s seat with only his eyes on the steering wheel. "Miss Shu, pleasee here and control the steering wheel." Chapter 275 Chapter 275 She was surprised by his action, having no idea of what he wanted to do. "I can''t move over! The space is not enough since you are there." "No, it''s okay. Move one leg in first. I''ll continue to squat down." He began to urge her with an attentive look. "We don''t have much time! Hurry up, or we''ll lose the chance." "But..." "The car drives at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour. On the way back, there is a tunnel in the middle. Then a winding mountain road follows. If the car rushes out of that stretch of road, it will dive into the moat around the J City. We must jump out of the car before it''s drowned." He spoke fast but made each word clear. They would drive into the river and jump out of the car! The thought of this was enough to make her scared. They were only two frail and ordinary people. If they reacted one secondter, they would die in the river! Her heart pounded, seemingly deafening her ears. She quickly analyzed the n in her mind, only to conclude that they couldn''t make it. Seeing that she didn''t move, the man narrowed his eyes and looked at her. "Miss Shu, do you believe in Mr. Meng?" Did she? Probably the answer was positive. If not, what was she doing now? The moment he destroyed the barbed wire, she had ruled out all other choices. She took a deep breath. Though still in doubt, she began to move her body ording to his instruction. The car was rocketing on the road, and inside she was shifting herself inch by inch to the main driver''s seat. "Nowe and grab the wheel. I have to squat lower. Obey the driving instruction." He did right away what he had said, leaving no time for her to hesitate. They shared the space originally for one person. Because of his big stature, it took Shu Tian some time to squeeze herself in. While she steered the car, the man controlled the elerator. Half a minuteter, she saw the tunnel, lit up by yellow lights inside. She broke out in a sweat on her back and said in a low voice, "We''re going into the tunnel!" To live or to die, the answer woulde clear in minutes. Hearing her words, the man at her feet obviously became more nervous. He gave himself to digest the information and said calmly, "Don''t panic." She didn''t know what he was doing, his arm touching her leg several times. She was stiff in the seat, not daring to move, even afraid to lower her head. Looking ahead, she reminded him anxiously, "We''ve already passed one-third of the tunnel. What''s your next step? What do I need to do?" He looked up at her and said in a deep voice, "I''m propping up the gas pedal so that the car can elerate itselfter. Next, I need to cut open the fuel pipe. "Cut it open?" "Yes, so the car will explode the moment it enters the river. The time for us to jump out of the car must be urate." He sounded so cid as if it were a mere warning of not beingte for work. But she was scared out of her wits when the word "explode" came into her ears. She raised her voice helplessly, her spirit copsing. "We will die if the car explodes!" She said so, not for herself but for the baby. Then she hastened to exin, "I''m pregnant. Do you know that?" Meng Shichuan had told him all about her before he was here, so the news didn''t surprise her. "Yes, I do." The color on her face gradually faded, and she knew that this venture was not a game. They would either live or die! "We can''t make any mistakes." Horizontally, there was a distance between the tunnel exit and the moat. Once they jumped out of the speeding car, they were at the mercy of fate. "Don''t worry, Miss Shu. I''ll dedicate my life to keeping you safe." Suddenly he got up from under her feet and crowded in the driver''s seat. With no foot on the gas pedal, the car kept elerating. They had got everything set for the jump. The atmosphere became tense in an instant. "Mr. Meng deserves your trust." At this critical moment, he still spoke for him. Dazed for a while at first, she sneered, "Does it matter? I have entrusted the baby and myself to him." She had staked her and the baby''s lives. Neither of them spoke again. In fact, if he wanted to kill her, Meng Shichuan didn''t need to make such a fuss, even risking the life of his subordinate. She would disappear in the world right away as long as he nodded. It became brighter and brighter in front of them. Shu Tian subconsciously held her breath as they were near the exit. She could feel the levels of adrenaline in her blood surged suddenly, her breathing quickening and her brain craving for more oxygen. Her heart was going to jump out of her throat. They had passed over two-third of the tunnel. The man rolled down the window, which was absolutely This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. against the rule. An armed police car supervising them drove behind. The armed police officers noticed the abnormal speed and the open window, warning them with a pager, "Attention! Please close the window." Hearing that, there was no trace of panic on the man''s face. He fixed his eyes on the road ahead. Shu Tian was drenched in sweat. She covered her lower abdomen with her hands as if the baby was a little farther away from danger. He saw her action from the corner of his eye, his heart softening even if he had been that tough. He said slowly, "Miss Shu, sorry to offend you." Before she caught the point, his arm wrapping around her waist, he held her tightly to one side of his body. "What!" She eximed, "What are you doing?" "I''ll count one, two, three. Then you jump. I''ll cover you with my body!" His voice rose. The car window waspletely open, the wind hurting his face. Shu Tian shivered. A nced at the rearview mirror told her that the car following had found out that they were nning something. The high-pitched sound of the siren echoed in the tunnel, which was extremely harsh. She took a deep breath. Mysteriously, courage surged out of her heart to embrace what would happen to her. They were getting closer and closer to the exit... Finally, the whole car rushed out, and the man tightened his arm around her, grabbed the wheel, and shouted, "Here we are. Steady yourself!" After his speech, the car went straight forward, deviating from the twisting mountain road, and rushed out of the edge. Chapter 276 Chapter 276 The car broke through the railing on the side of the road. The speed of more than 120 kilometers per hour was enough to force Shu Tian out of the seat. No sooner had her butt left the seat than she was immediately pulled back by a big hand on her waist. At that moment, she finally understood why the man did it. She could clearly feel that the front of the car rose at the moment it left the road, and then, in just one second or two, it began to fall. The speed of the fall under the gravity was frightening, and the smell of fuel spread. Except for the roar of the car engine, she couldn''t hear anything at the moment. She could hear nothing, and the scene in front of her was also quiet, which shed like a silent movie. All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. She could feel the arm around her waist tightened. She didn''t even know why she cried, but the tears had rolled down her cheeks instinctively. One second seemed to have been infinitely lengthened, making her feel the pain magnified countless times frame by frame. There was always a critical point that could break the silence. Suddenly, there was a suppressed roar in her ear, "Now, jump!" It was like the fish''s tail cutting through the water, or the first light in the dark. With the roar, she heard the creaking of the car and the whistling of the wind. Shu Tian had never known that she had so much energy in her body. After he shouted, she used all her strength to follow him to jump out of the window. The man kicked the window frame of the car very hard, and they bounced a distance away from where the car fell. No sooner had they jumped out than they fell into the river. The cold water stimted her body. She was not good at swimming. The man could not exert force with one hand around her. Then he pressed something in his hand and they were pulled forward very fast by a great force. She felt that her face was a little pained by the resistance of the water. The armed police cars following behind were stunned when they saw this scene. It was the first time for them to face such circumstances in the years they had been responsible for escorting prisoners. "Quick, drive to the side!" One of them shouted anxiously. The car gradually sped up, and it was getting closer and closer to the roadside. At that moment, a big explosion suddenly urred under the Winding Mountain Road. How serious was it? Even the sound wave of the explosion pushed the speeding car around. The driver mmed on the brakes at once and made a sharp turn. The tires rubbed against the ground with smoke and screeching sound. Fortunately, the car finally stopped. Bang! After a loud noise, the explosions urred one after another. It was more than ten meters from the winding mountain road to the river surface, and people in the car saw the frightening fire rolling up... The burning fire rushed towards them, which reddened everyone''s eyes. Gradually, ck smoke began to rise, which gathered together much bigger than the clouds in the sky. The smoke mixed with the smell of fuel made people''s lungs constrict. "Cough, cough..." One of them realized something first and roared, "Get out of here, quick!" The people in the car opened the door and staggered out. There was a lot of ck smoke in front of them. They covered their mouths and noses and ran in the opposite direction quickly. In less than half a minute, the car that had been dashingst second turned into ashes the next. Everyone''s heart was shaken. When they finally reached a ce where they could breathe safely, the man immediately took out his cell phone and dialed the number of the bureau, "Something happened to the escort car. It was more than 100 meters away from the tunnel entrance. The car plunged off the Winding Mountain Road and exploded. It''s not clear what''s going on inside the car. I don''t think it''s positive..." When others heard it, they all looked at each other. They knew that the people inside the car should have been gone in such an explosion unless a miracle urred. After a time, the raging mes finally subsided, followed by more smoke, which rose straight into the air, rolling and shouting in a gray and ck ball, and finally disappeared in the blue sky. Finally, more than ten minutester, the rm of 119 fire engine came from far and near. They were sent by the nearest fire brigade. Two red fire engines with shing lights stopped at the side of the road. The tunnel entrance was closed, making the atmosphere more solemn. "Please get in the car first. Don''t stand here!" After the firefighters evacuated the crowd, they turned on the hydraulic giant and sprayed water to the car. The car itself didn''t burn very severely. The key was that the oil leaked from the car, which caused a big fire, but it was quickly burned out and then sprayed out. The river became calm again, but the clear water became ck. The escort car had already disintegrated in the explosion. The car parts were scattered everywhere, and even the tires were burned half, while the people inside... Looking at the miserable condition below, no one spoke at the scene. In order to prevent a second explosion, firemen were still desperately spraying water to cool it down. When Li Han received the news and rushed there, he saw the sight of horror. There was smoke on the river, but the woman he wanted to take care of for the rest of his life was gone. Looking at the quiet river, Li Han was filled with panic. His beautiful ck eyes were not focused on a point at the moment but drifted around the river surface, "Shu Tian, Tiantian... Where are you? Come out!" He roared as if he had copsed. The fire chief came over and tried to put on the gas mask for him. As soon as he touched him, he was shaken off. "Fuck off!" Li Han shook off his hand and staggered back two steps with his weak legs. He had to hold the railing with both hands, "She hasn''te up out of the water yet. I can''t put on it!" Coming up out of the water... Looking at him with scarlet eyes, others were also sad. How could anyone survive in such a situation... "Shu Tian! Come out. You promised me to go to the hospital tomorrow. You promised me..." He kept roaring at the river, his voice choked with sobs and fear. At that moment, his world was dark. There was no light or warmth but the cold river water. His heart was cut a hole by a knife, where the blood gathered and flowed out. He was still standing, like a man, but his body nearly surrendered. They said that Shu Tian''s car had plunged off the winding mountain road and that the explosion was serious... Impossible! How could it be possible? They had just parted, and she told him in a soft tone that she would perform well and ask for leave to go to the hospital with him. How could the ident happen in a blink? Chapter 277 Chapter 277 Li Han didn''t believe it. It was impossible. But... He slowly turned to look at the river. Everything was burnt to the ground. The burning smell was so strong that it reminded him this was all real, not an illusion. The firemen were busy controlling the fire and searching for the survivors around him. He stood there and hunched over as if he had suffered from great pain. "That''s impossible, absolutely impossible..." he murmured to himself. As time went by, it was beginning to get dark. When Ling Junze got the news, he took his medical team All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. to the scene. The moment he got out of the car, he was immediately frozen. The fire scene was such a mess. His heart was filled with bitterness when he saw Li Han standing at the railing. He didn''t dare to think too much right now. He was afraid that he would drown in the grief. Ling Junze close his eyes and walked over quickly. At the same time, a firefighter walked towards Li Han. He was wearing a gas mask, so his voice was not very clear, "Mr. Li, we found this..." He raised his arm and slowly opened his fist in front of Li Han. In his fist was a very thin ne covered with a lot of burnt turbid matter. Although it was badly burnt, the pendant could be vaguely recognized. Seeing the ne, Li Han could not help but tremble. If he still had a glimmer of hope then, the ne hadpletely shattered thest bit of hope now. It was the ne he gave to Shu Tian. At that time, he tried so hard to make her wear it all the time, but now it was in the hands of the firemen... The ne was still here, but she was not. Li Han''s brain was nk. The fireman put the ne into a transparent bag and sealed it. Then he handed it to Li Han. When his fingertips touched the cold bag, his heart was twisting. Thinking of the smile on Shu Tian''s face when she wore this ne, he suddenly felt very dizzy. Ling Junze held him up immediately. He was also very heartbroken. He said in a trembling tone, "Li Han..." Before he could finish speaking, Li Han suddenly struggled to throw himself at the broken railing. Ling Junze thought he wanted tomit suicide. He quickly pulled him back with the firemen beside him. "What are you doing? Are you crazy?!" He roared angrily at him and watched him copse on the ground. "Junze..." Li Han looked up at the sky and called out to him in a choked voice. Tears fell from the corner of his eyes. "Her ne is here, but she''s gone. Tell me why..." He watched the firemene and go in a hurry searching for the woman he loved, but why were they searching for her in the river? Ling Junze squatted down beside him. Seeing that Li Han had lost his mind, he tried tofort him. "They haven''t found her yet. There''s still hope." Hope? A strange and sad smile appeared on Li Han''s face. "Yes, there''s still hope. What if, what if she..." He paused for a moment, then raised his hands to cover his face and burst into tears. "The fire is so huge that the car is melting. She''s so small and weak. There is no way she..." The reality is so cruel. Sometimes you had to ept it. "Why did it happen?" He muttered to himself, and no one answered. How could something like this happen to the woman that was the love of his life? An hour ago, she was still so alive. He even remembered the look on her face when she was talking to him and the fragrant smell from her body. But in the blink of an eye, everything was gone. She was now sunk under the river. The police siren was still ringing, like a silent warning for the ident. It waspletely dark now. The night wind cut through the man''s eyes, making him burst into tears. The search and rescue continued. Ling Junze did not dare to leave him. With his current mentality, he could do anything. He knew how important Shu Tian was to this man. She was the key to everything for him. Without this key, Li Han could do nothing. He was like a walking dead without soul and temperature right now. So even if the reality was cruel, he still hoped that God could give him a chance to live by returning Shu Tian to him. Half an hour had gone by, she was still nowhere to be found. An hour had gone by, the result was the same. As time went by, it got darker and darker. In the end, the firemen had to turn on the lights to continue the search. The golden time for the search and rescue was about to pass. Everyone knew that there would be no miracles in this river, but no one dared to tell Li Han. As the search continued, several teams of firemen took turns to find her, but Li Han still didn''t get the answer he hoped for. In the end, they had to stop the search. The fire marshal looked at the man sitting on the ground. He walked over and said to him in a trembling tone, "Mr. Li, the search is over. Maybe..." "What did you say?" Li Han shouted in a hoarse and painful tone. His voice was not very loud, but it made people panic. "The search is over Mr. Li. I think we can withdraw our team..." "Over?!" Li Han stood up from the ground immediately. His sadness turned into anger. The man in front of him became the bad man who forced him to admit that Shu Tian was dead. He was furious and lost his mind. "You haven''t found her, how dare you withdraw now? If she was dead, I want to see her body. If you haven''t found her body, you can''t stop the search!" The fire marshal''s face was still stained with soot from the fire. Because Li Han grabbed the cor of his uniform, he couldn''t breathe for a moment. He gave a dry cough and said, "Well, Mr. Li, please calm down..." How could he calm down? The woman who affected all his spirits and emotions had disappeared. How could he hold hisposure? "Continue!" Li Han spat out the word fiercely. His eyes were bulging as if they were about to fall off. "As long as you don''t find her, she must be alive!" "But..." "Shut up! Just continue the search!" Li Han had never lost control like this before. Over the past 30 years, he had never felt so desperate. The woman that he desperately loved was now gone, but he could do nothing about it. No one could understand this pain. Shu Tian was everything to him. Without her, his world would copse and not beplete. Chapter 278 Chapter 278 Ling Junze finally couldn''t stand it anymore and raised his hand to stop him, "Han, clear your head. I know you want to find Shu Tian, but the fire brigade has its own rules. I''ll ask Pei Yu to bring his men overter. You can find her no matter how long you want." Li Han turned a deaf ear to him. He only knew that if he gave up now, Shu Tian would have to stay here by herself. He couldn''t do that. "Listen!" Seeing him in such a daze, Ling Junze emphasized it and grabbed Li Han''s cor, "The person you''re tugging at now is the one who risked his life to rush into the sea of fire to save Shu Tian. You can''t treat him like this, understand?" Hearing something about Shu Tian, Li Han finally calmed down a little and loosened his grip for a moment. Ling Junze took this opportunity to pull the fire captain aside and said in a deep voice, "You can go back." "Yes!" The fire captain was grateful to him, "Thank you, Mr. Ling." After saying that, he looked at the ne in Li Han''s hand, which was the physical evidence left at the scene. The man hesitated, "This ne..." Ling Junze raised his hand and interrupted him, "Leave it to him." Li Han had lost everything about Shu Tian except for this. Ling Junze couldn''t bear to take it away. The fire captain didn''t force them, but nodded and turned to leave. The sirens of the fire engines gradually faded away, and in the end, everything disappeared into the deep night. The wind swept over the ruins. Fortunately, the darkness of the night could slightly cover up the Belonging to N?velDrama.Org. miserable forever parting. Li Han slowly turned to look at the river. The winding moat was no longer as great as it used to be, but looked ferocious and terrifying. The dark river and the broken car parts were lying there provocatively as if telling him Shu Tian had disappeared and had been swallowed by them. A terrifying scene gradually urred to Li Han''s mind. A body that had been scorched was pulled out. It was no longer as beautiful and energetic as it used to be, but was cold and stiff. Li Han suddenly closed his eyes and took a big step back. He almost lost his bnce and clutched the ne in his palm with all his left strength. Ling Junze was worried about him, "How about I give you a little sedative?" Li Han did not speak. To be exact, he was about to lose all normal human functions. Only when Shu Tian was mentioned could he be awakened. Ling Junze signaled to the person beside him to take the sedative over. He disinfected him, found the IV, and injected him in one go. On the contrary, Li Han seemed to be numb. This medicine was developed by Ling''s Hospital itself, and its effect was very small. It was different from the ordinary sedatives. Its ingredients could calm people down. After the injection, Ling Junze put the syringe in his hand into the recycling box and said to the medical staff, "You can go back first." There were only a few people present, so with Ling Junze there was enough. The medical teams also left one after another. Everything was terribly bleak. Fortunately, not long after, Pei Yu arrived with his men. There were fiverge ck nanny cars and a crane truck. The cars stopped at the roadside and the doors were opened. People in ck protective suits came down one after another. Pei Yu was in a dark red velvet shirt with a mboyant v-neck and half of his corbone exposed. Only his face could match it. He probably came in a hurry and felt that the color was inappropriate, so he put on a ck windbreaker to cover the shirt. He strode over, his pants pressed against his legs in the wind. Before he could reach him, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. He frowned and looked at Ling Junze, "Junze, what''s going on?" Ling Junze pulled him aside and whispered, "The car that escorted Shu Tian fell into the river. The fire brigade just left. Ask your men to look for her." Pei Yu nodded and immediately turned to order his men, who were all former firefighters or armed police officers. He used his connections to find them and they were not inferior to regr teams in terms of skills. Seeing that the staff were ready, Pei Yu looked worriedly at Li Han, who always kept silent, "... How about Mr. Li?" "He has broken down." Ling Junze smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I just gave him a sedative. If something really happened to Shu Tian this time, I''m really afraid he won''t be able to hold on." Pei Yu, who had never taken the world seriously, understood the feeling of helplessness for the first time. He had always thought that everything could be achieved with effort, but now he could only feel helpless. Facing death, he could do nothing even he was powerful. The news of the ident of the escort car was blocked by the higher-ups, who forbade everyone from reporting it. If anyone dared to vite the order, the consequences would be unimaginable, so the outside world did not know the situation here for the time being. But Fu Qingtong knew it. She was having dinner with Ye Lihua and Shu Changlei in Red Garden Community when she suddenly received a strange call. When it got through, she realized that it was Ji Chuanyi. This man... Her face darkened and she was about to hang up, but before she could do anything, he told her a piece of shocking bad news, "Something happened to Shu Tian." Fu Qingtong''s hand, which was holding the phone, suddenly tightened, "What?!" "Something happened to the car that was in charge of escorting Shu Tian. It fell into the river and exploded. She hasn''t been found yet." Fu Qingtong heard this and she even thought that she had misheard them. She never thought about this kind of thing but why did it happen to Shu Tian... But the next second, Ji Chuanyi''s words forced her to believe it, "This matter has been blocked. Don''t tell anyone. Informing you of this is that we may need your help when there is something about Shu Tian." Fu Qingtong failed to make any sound. She looked up at the window in front of her. Her pale face and unusually red eyes were reflected on the ss. She only choked with sobs, "What... did you say?" Ji Chuanyi heard her voice and squeezed two words, "Don''t cry." [...] When Fu Qingtong arrived at the scene of the ident, it was almost 10: 30 pm. She took a taxi to the entrance of the tunnel but the passage was restricted. She walked over on foot. The distance was not short, but she was unconscious and walked step by step. She saw the re of the emergency lights over there from afar. Her heart sank with every step she took, because the closer she got, the more she realized that everything Ji Chuanyi said was true. Something happened to Shu Tian. These words seemed to be engraved in her mind until she walked out of the exit and saw the broken railings and the burning marks left at the scene. At that moment, she was extremely shocked and grieved. Chapter 279 Chapter 279 Fu Qingtong was shocked and confused and could not ept what had happened. She stood there for a long time, shaking her head. When seeing a man in a ck protective suit walking up, she suddenly ran towards the roadside. Her bag fell off, her shoes fell off, and Fu Qingtong didn''t care about anything and tearfully ran to the ce where the car fell. Looking down at the darkness, she choked and screamed, "Shu Tian, Shu Tian!" Fu Qingtong looked nkly at the calm river, then looked up sadly and closed her eyes. "How could this be? How could..." Fu Qingtong shouted on the spot and was noticed. Pei Yu narrowed his eyes and was about to pull her away. Before he could take a step, Fu Qingtong suddenly turned around and rushed towards Li Han. Fu Qingtong rushed to Li Han, and pped him hard on the face, causing her hand to hurt. "Bastard, you said you wanted to take care of her. You said you wanted to help her. Is that how you took care of her?!" Normally, this p might not have mattered to Li Han, but now, he was weak both in body and mind, and he had lost all his strength. He staggered half a step before he could stabilize himself. When Li Han saw Fu Qingtonging, he paused. Fu Qingtong was wearing a light brown suit with many wrinkles on her cuffs and was furious with messy hair and bloodshot eyes. She was full of resentment towards him. "Where is she? Tell me where Shu Tian went. Tell me!" Fu Qingtong was pulled away by Pei Yu, but she couldn''t calm down at all. She roared like crazy, "Find her..." Li Han was silent and heartbroken. At this moment, he was no longer the aloof and omnipotent Mr. Li, but only an ordinary person who had lost his beloved. He even wanted Fu Qingtong to hit him a few more times. Everything about Shu Tian could easily deprive Li Han of his reason. Fu Qingtong didn''t care how guilty he was. When Fu Qingtong thought of Shu Tian telling her that Li Han would help her, Fu Qingtong believed it and waited for a result. They had been friends for so many years, and the rtionship between her and Shu Tian was not an ordinary friendship. They were already an indispensable "family member" for each other, but now that Shu Tian was gone, how could Fu Qingtong ept it? Fu Qingtong roared angrily and the spits even shoot out of her mouth. "I''m asking you where Shu Tian is. Find her for me! Give her back to me!" Li Han bordered on crying as his tall body bent down bit by bit. "I think I''ve lost her..." "You''re a fucking bastard!" Fu Qingtong desperately tried to break free of Pei Yu''s shackles. She was so strong that she even tore a hole in her suit jacket. "She trusted you so much, loved you so much, and was even willing to go to jail for fear of making things difficult for you. But what about you? You All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. forced her to death! For a woman who was not trustworthy, for that vicious woman, Jiang Chujing, you forced her to a dead end. Have you ever thought about how aggrieved she was? She endured the hardships and survived so many difficulties and so much suffering, but in the end, she died because of you. Li Han, how cruel are you to her!" Every word she said was like a dagger piercing his heart, and it hurt so much that he couldn''t stand up straight and he couldn''t even breathe. "I''m sorry, I''m sorry..." Li Han was sorry that he didn''t take good care of Shu Tian. He was sorry that he didn''t fulfill his promise. He was sorry that he made her suffer all this. And he was sorry for many things. The proud man lowered his head and apologized incessantly with clothes stained with dust and dirt and his broad shoulders trembling. Li Han squatted on the ground with his hands on his head. He looked very painful and he had never wanted to hurt her. He wished he could give the best to her, whether it was love or gift, but in the end, the one who hurt her the most was him. He deserved to die for Shu Tian. If he could, he really hoped that the person who fell into the river was himself and not her! "Since you don''t have the ability to protect her, why do you pester her? Why do you promise her?" Fu Qingtong did not feel pity for Li Han at all. From her point of view, she would always be on Shu Tian''s side. Li Han didn''t protect Shu Tian well, and he should be sad and painful. "I never thought that Tian would leave like this one day..." Fu Qingtong thought Shu Tian would be happy, but all this was just a wish. Fu Qingtong did not even dare to imagine how much suffering Shu Tian had experienced before. Pei Yu looked at Li Han squatting on the ground and felt sympathetic. He grabbed her arm and tried to pull Fu Qingtong aside. Her words could hurt Li Han. Fu Qingtong was not a strong person, but at this moment, it seemed that there were inexhaustible forces in her body. She dragged herself to the same ce." Why are you doing this to her? Why? Li Han, do you know how much she loves you? Do you know how much she has done for you! When I went to see her at the police station, didn''t you know how weak she was? She forced herself to do it all because she trusted you and loved you, but what did you do? You forced her to death!" Every usation she made suffocated Li Han. He felt as if he had fallen into the bone-chilling sea, and countless water hit him, pressing his internal organs to the point of being deformed. He knew what she said, and that was why he regretted it. "That''s enough!" Pei Yu frowned and exerted some strength to pull her aside. "He also doesn''t want it to happen, and he''s more painful than anyone else!" "Not enough!" Fu Qingtong shouted and hated Li Han and everyone who spoke for him. She med Shu Tian''s death on Li Han. She remembered that Shu Tian had repeatedly asked her to keep it a secret. At this moment, Fu Qingtong wanted to take revenge and made Li Han suffer, so she slowly said. "Do you think that''s all? No, there''s something even crueler..." At this point, she paused and smiled sarcastically. And Pei Yu was even shocked by her expressions. Li Han stood up trembling in the night wind. Half of his face was blocked by the bangs on his forehead. The wind blew and lifted a wisp of his hair, revealing his sad expressions. Fu Qingtong looked at him standing not far away and said word by word. The night wind blew her voice into his ears, but Li Han felt that he could not hear anything. There was a dead silent. He only saw Fu Qingtong''s lips moving, but he was in a daze. There was a sharp buzz in his ears, and his blood seemed to flow back. And he almost broke down. His mind went nk, his hands hanging by his side clenched into fists, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged. Li Han tried to suppress the sudden burst of grief in his mind. His face turned extremely pale in an instant, and he heard Fu Qingtong ask him... "Shu Tian is pregnant, do you know that?" Chapter 280 Chapter 280 His lips were so parched that it took a moment for him to regain his voice. "What did you say?" Fu Qingtong looked at the man''s stunned expression and indescribable mixed feelings welled up in her heart. Thinking of Shu Tian and the baby that didn''t even get to see the world, she could not show any mercy. She pronounced him guilty, enunciating each word carefully. "Shu Tian is pregnant. It''s yours." Fu Qingtong was gratified by his reaction, yet sorry for Shu Tian to have picked the wrong guy. "When she was at the police station, she realized she might be pregnant, so she asked me to bring a pregnancy test paper over. After that, she told me not to mention it to anyone. At that time, I didn''t quite understand. But now I know she was afraid that you wouldn''t keep your promise and would give up on her and your baby." "How is that possible!" Li Han''s pupils dted with shock. Their previous conversations echoed in his mind. At that time, he had been a little confused, but he did not confirm the conjecture. He had been reminded of how weirdly Shu Tian had reacted when saying he would take her to the hospital for a checkup and how she had stopped him from smoking in front of her. She had vomited so badly. It was not because that she had had an upset stomach, but because she had been pregnant. She had known that she had a baby in her belly! A wry smirk appeared. She had already known that. The man smashed a fist on the ground. It was so hard that his hand was bloody. "Shu Tian was pregnant. She was pregnant with my baby. Haha..." Li Hanughed like a crazy man with tears welling from his eyes. Both Pei Yu and Ling Junze were shocked. They had never seen this man so desperate. Shu Tian had asked Li Han if he wanted a child, but he hadn''t noticed anything strange at that time. He had even told her foolishly that he would marry her when everything was over. However, he knew now that it wasn''t the answer she wanted to hear. "Why? Why didn''t you tell me anything? Why didn''t you..." He didn''t know she was pregnant. If he had known about the baby, maybe everything would have been different. He would have listened to her and proved her innocence directly. But now... It was toote. "I killed her. It was all because of me..." The man muttered to himself. All of a sudden, he gasped audibly. His expression changed drastically and he vomited blood. The dark red liquid quickly stained his chin and dropped on his shirt. Devitalized, the tall man fell to the ground. Ling Junze was appalled. He took a few steps forward, held him, and eximed, "Han!" Li Han was nearly 1.9 meters tall. Strong as Ling Junze, he still had some difficulty supporting Li Han alone. Pei Yu was also dumbfounded. The unexpected scene prescinded his mind from the others. He let go of Fu Qingtong''s hand and rushed forward to steady Li Han. "Li Han! Li Han!" He called out. However, Li Han could not respond, with his eyes tightly closed and his face pale. The situation was urgent. Ling Junze said hurriedly, "Help him into the ambnce first." Pei Yu nodded and acted ordingly. Then Ling Junze immediately began to do a thorough check-up. Pei Yu wasn''t able to help, so he headed back to Fu Qingtong. He restrained his anger and asked her, "Are you happy now?" If it weren''t for the fact that this woman was Shu Tian''s good friend, he would have avenged his buddy! Obviously, Fu Qingtong did not expect Li Han to have such a strong reaction, either. She stared nkly at the blood on the ground. Yes, everyone was sorrowful. That man had nearly gone mad with grief. She saw that, but... What about Shu Tian? What about Tian? At this moment, Fu Qingtong was overwhelmed with anxiety. The wind picked up. She turned to look at the night-cloaked river. The sunken car had been raised, but Shu Tian was nowhere to be found. "Tian, pleasee back, please. Didn''t you ask me to take care of your parents? Do you know how they will feel to bury their child..." Fu Qingtong felt regretful too. When Shu Tian said those words at the police station, she should have perceived that something wasn''t quite right. Fu Qingtong med herself, and she med everyone and everything that caused the incident. If someone had paid more attention, maybe things wouldn''t have turned out like this. Seeing that, Pei Yu was not in the mood to scold her. All of them lived a tough life. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. Looking at the ambnce and the dark night, even this otherworldly man could not help but sigh. When was this going to end? [...] By the time Shu Tian opened her eyes in a daze, she was lying on a soft king-size bed. Above her head was a circr, built-inmpshade. The white round table in front of the sofa was covered with gold, which was particrly eye-catching in the light. The room had fitted a French grey soundproof carpet. She immediately felt dizzy as she tried to turn her head. The pain in her joints told her that those memories were not just a dream. "You''re awake." Suddenly, a deep male voice came from not far away. Shu Tian followed the sound and saw a man wearing a dark gray satin suit and ck handmade leather shoes. His hair was drawn back neatly and he was holding a financial magazine in his hand. This face was familiar to her. "Mr. Meng?" At first, Shu Tian was a little surprised, but on second thought, Meng Shichuan was the mastermind, so it was not astonishing to see him here. "It''s one o''clock in the morning. You slept through the afternoon and the night. It''s beyond my imagination." There was a hint of humor in his words. She looked at the man''s chiseled face - thin lips, prominent nose, and deep eyes - he had got everything. Regrettably, Shu Tian had no desire to appreciate this handsome man now. She looked around. The alien environment made her very uneasy. "Where am I now?" "On a ne." He answered concisely. "What? On a ne?" Shu Tian felt the bed under her body shake. It was not an earthquake, but an airne bumping because of air turbulence. Only then did she realize he was serious. "Where are we going now?" Hearing this, the man on the sofa stood up and strode to the bed. He felt her forehead and then met her gaze, sounding dominant. "B Country and I Country." Chapter 281 Chapter 281 Shu Tian was dumbfounded when she heard this answer. Her face turned paler. She muttered I Country in her heart. It was so far away. It might be tens of thousands of miles away from here. Meng Shichuan carefully observed every expression on her face and even the slightest one. "What?! You don''t bear to leave here? If you want to go back now, it''s not toote. We are still in Z Country ." Shu Tian didn''t say anything but stared nkly ahead. She knew it was self-deceiving when she said that she can let go of the past after leaving. Only she knew what had happened during her one-year rtionship with Li Han, and that how deeply they loved each other. Everything was engraved in her mind, but... Shu Tian put her hands on her belly where a new life, belonging to Li Han and her, was growing. The cabin went silent for a while, but the atmosphere was a bit tense. It was not easy to have a narrow escape, and she was fearing the unknown. At this moment, the cabin door suddenly opened and a man in ck came over. Shu Tian looked warily at him. It was the man in the police van who had helped her escape. Seeing this face again, Shu Ting was surprised. "Why are you here?" After that, she looked at Meng Shichuan, her gaze moving between the two of them, and soon realized that this man might have a closer rtionship with Meng Shichuan. Sure enough, the man nodded at her, not so serious as he had been. "Hello, Miss Shu. d to meet you again." Due to her previous experiences, Shu Tian was still nervous and wary when she saw this man again. Her hands were covered with cold sweat, but thinking of his protection when she fell into the water, she asked, "Are you... alright?" "Thank you for your concern. I''m fine." Shu Tian nodded, not knowing what to say. "That''s good. Thank you." Meng Shichuan smiled. "I''ve helped you so many times, and I haven''t heard you thank me." Shu Tian silently looked away, pretending not to hear. Meng Shichuan did not mock her again. He walked up to the man and patted him on the shoulder. "This is Lai, my bodyguard." Shu Tian understood why Meng Shichuan had trusted him to save her. It turned out that he could entrust his life to Lai. She couldn''t help but recall how Lai had spoken for Meng Shichuan in the van and said with emotions, "You are lucky to have him." Meng Shichuan agreed. "I know." "Mr. Meng, are we flying non-stop to I Country?" Lai came here because he had something to ask. Meng Shichuan looked at Shu Tian, then took a high-ss cashmere nket, and draped it over her weak thin body. "Do you want to go? Have you made up your mind?" Shu Tian lowered her head. The thought of leaving put a lump in her throat. She held back the tears in her eyes. "I won''t regret it." To be exact, there was no room for regret. Since she had chosen to jump out of the van, she couldn''t turn back. "We fly direct to I Country." "Yes, sir." Lai nodded respectfully and then left the cabin. Meng Shichuan watched as Shu Tian curled up, the color draining from her beautiful face which was All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. filled with sadness. She looked as if she was born so weak, but he knew that she was stronger than he had imagined. There was a strength beyond people''s imagination inside her body. In fact, even Meng Shichuan himself did not understand why he had to put in so much effort to help her who had done nothing but save him once. They didn''t have a deep connection, but every time he met her in trouble, he couldn''t bear to stand by and watch her suffer. Perhaps because she was strong, and when she cried, she looked pitiful, this reminded him of the past self, helpless, sad, and humble self many years ago. They both seemed weak, but in fact, they were strong and tenacious and would only be stronger when in hardships. "If I leave like this, will you be in trouble?" Shu Tian suddenly asked. Meng Shichuan was surprised. "What? You still have the energy to worry about me?" After a pause, he added, "Li Han is not an ordinary person, but since I dare to do this, I am fully prepared. I will never let him find out about me, so you don''t have to worry." Moreover, the scene of the ident was tragic, and it was impossible to find any trace. The car was destroyed, and the people were killed. No one would suspect anything. "I''m pregnant," she said. Both of them knew what she meant. "When we get to I Country, I will give you a new identity. You don''t have to worry about your life there. You''ll have my back." Meng Shichuan seldom looked so steady andposed. He knew what Shu Tian was worried about, and he understood why she was at a loss and panicked. "Don''t worry. I will let you give birth to this child safely." Shu Tian looked straight into his eyes, and her eyes sparkled. "Really?" "Yes, unless you don''t want this child." Meng Shichuan looked meaningfully at her belly. Shu Tian became wary and covered her lower abdomen with both hands. "How is that possible? I left for this child." Seeing her nervous face, Meng Shichuan sneered. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her. "Since I have promised you, I will honor it. I am a man of my word, or you won''t be here now." He suddenly changed the subject. "But you have to promise me one thing." Shu Tian was surprised. It was the first time he had asked her to do anything since they met each other identally or otherwise. She couldn''t help but be a little surprised. "What?" There were tears on her eyshes, and she did not take the handkerchief. Meng Shichuan lowered his head, took her hand, stuffed it in. "From today on, forget everything here and everyone. You won''t have anything to do with Li Han anymore." Shu Tian felt as if she had been punched in the gut and dull pain. She turned her head and raised the window shade beside her. It waste at night, so she could only see the lights on the ground. She was dead to them now. What Li Han would react? He might be in pain too. Shu Tian didn''t dare to think about it because she wanted to cry at this thought. Meng Shichuan saw her red eyes. He couldn''t bear to see her crying, so he pulled down the shade. "Can you do that?" Shu Tian took a deep breath and then exhaled. There was still a long way to go and many obstacles that she needed to ovee. She had to do it even if she couldn''t. She had to pull herself together instead of losing herself to self-pity and sadness. "I can!" Chapter 282 Chapter 282 Li Han was taken to the hospital after copsing at the search and rescue scene that day. His heart hurted more than the internal injuries he was sustained. He ignored Ling Junze''s rmendation to take a few days off before departing. Ling Junze realized he couldn''t persuade him, so he didn''t attempt to do it. He instead gave him some medicine to keep his energy levels up and sent him on his way. People on Zou Xun¡®s side did not give up and continued their search for her in the river where the ident urred, even further down the river. However, no news of Shu Tian appeared as time went on. Li Han''s anxiety turned to fear on the third day after she went missing. He was afraid that if he discovered that Shu Tian had been found, she might already have passed away. Even if there was no news, he had the illusion that she was still alive, which kept him going. Li Han was obsessed with this, so he got up early every day and went to the crime scene. He didn''t shave his beard orb his hair, and he went several days without changing his clothes. He had already be sloppy, and he had lost his brilliance. The police didn''t start contacting him until one morning. The director''s voice came through on the other end of the line, apologetic and regretful. "How do you think we should handle Miss Shu, Mr. Li?" "Can you exin what you mean by ''handle''?" Li Han sensitively asked in a hoarse voice, "The hunt isn''t over yet. Why are you inquiring about it?" "I understand you''ve been looking for her all the time. It''s fine. You can look for it. We can also assist you in securing the road. However, the key now is to have a surface exnation." "You see, things have been going on for such a long time." The director said, his voice filled with emotion. How about we make a record first... And then arrange her aftermath? " "Her aftermath?" Through the microphone, Li Han repeated the words for the director in a cold tone. "Howe you''re discussing the aftermath when we haven''t found her?" The director got what he was saying, as if he still couldn''t ept Shu Tian''s death. He abruptly changed the subject of the conversation. "That is correct, but we are unable to exin her condition to her family." Her Family? Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua were the first people who came to Li Han''s mind when these words were mentioned. Li Han drew his lips together in a sad expression. They would never forgive him, no matter how he tried to exin it. For the loss of their only beloved daughter, he was unforgivable. The director called out tentatively, "Mr. Li?" Because he didn''t hear Li Han''s response. "Give me a second and I''ll be there." Li Han then hung up without waiting for a response from the director. What he didn''t want to face, what he tried to deny, were gradually demonstrating to him that no amount of denial would be enough to erase everything. What should have happened actually urred. It was cruel, but he had no choice but to ept it. Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua were already waiting for Li Han when he arrived at the police station. When he entered the director''s office, he was greeted by an elderly couple who sat on the sofa, wailing incessantly. They appeared to have aged more than ten years in a month, going from people in their mid-fifties to people in their seventies and eighties. The anguish of losing their beloved daughter was enough to age them in an instant. When they heard a noise at the door, they both raised their heads. Shu Changlei''s eyes were bloodshot, and Ye lihua''s face was swollen with tears. The sadness in their eyes turned to resentment and hatred when they saw Li Han. The nobleman, who had always seemed unattainable in their mind, had now lost his noble and self- restraint appearance, leaving only dust and sloppiness in his wake. He seemed to have changed from beginning to end after a few days of not seeing him. It was clear that he was not leading a happy life. Even the director is taken aback. "Mr. Li?" He muttered after staring at it for a long time. He''d also met Li Han a few times on various asions. This man was always the center of attention. Li Han had never been so depressed as he was right now. Li Han only nodded and remained silent. His gaze was always drawn to Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua. His adam''s apple rolled twice, and he mumbled. "Uncle, auntie." When Ye Lihua spoke, he became even more agitated. She kept thinking about it because there was a voice in her head telling her that he had murdered her daughter. It was all because of him that her family turned out the way it did! As for a woman, Ye Lihua''s mood had already been erratic following such a blow, and it had now be even more so. She leapt to her feet and charged straight at Li Han. Her rough hands clenched into fists and repeatedly smacked him on the shoulder. "Give my daughter back! Give my daughter back!" Ye Lihua''s hair was unkempt, and her clothes were a shambles. Despite her best efforts, the strength in her hand was insignificant to Li Han. She didn''t stop punching. With a look in his eyes, Li Han deterred the director from approaching her to stop her. Even though he was unable to support his physical exhaustion for several days, he gritted his teeth and endured her beating without resistance. This was the debt he owed the Shu family. He suffered even though he was stabbed twice by them. Shu Changlei watched from the side. At first, he just sat in his seat, head bowed, trying to keep the tears from streaming down his face. He couldn''t help but step forward and pull Ye Lihua away when he heard her questions and cries of desperation. His old eyes were bright red, as if they were about to bleed. "Our daughter is gone. Are you still up for causing amotion?" It was as if Ye Lihua had been defeated when she heard the words. "I must kill this beast because he caused the death of my daughter!" After Ye Lihua finished speaking, she turned around and delivered a powerful punch to Li Han. However, the pain in his heart did not go away after these two punches, and his body copsed weakly against the wall. "What a heinous crime! Why are you so naive, Tian? What made you fall in love with this man?" The suppressed cries of Ye Lihua soon filled the room. "What will mom and dad be able to do now that you''re gone?" The mood was so depressing that even the director, who had seen countless scenes, couldn''t help but be sad. Who''d have guessed that the people who appeared to be in good shape the day before would vanish in the blink of an eye? It was the first time in more than ten years that the escorting vehicle was thrown into the river. Perhaps it was all part of God''s n to deceive people. Shu Changlei approached Ye Lihua to assist her and turned around to see Li Han standing there with his head bowed. He was remorseful and heartbroken, rather than angry. "I would never let Tian be with you if I knew what would happen today." Li Han was more hurt by this sentence than by being scolded and beaten. He wanted tough at himself by pulling his lips down, but the corners of his lips felt like they weighed a thousand pounds and he couldn''t move. "I would never let her know who I am if I knew the oue today." He could bear it even if no one had ever loved him from beginning to end, even if he had been alone for the rest of his life. Only Shu Tian''s departure left him with an inexplicable ache in his heart that he could never forget or bear. Was he painful? Sure. It was even worse than the physical pain. It was the kind of agony he couldn''t get enough of. When he looked for her during the day, his mind was filled with her phantom. He couldn''t sleep at night because his breath was filled with her scent. This type of torture was like a shadow, and he would have to live with it for the rest of his life. While everyone was silent, the director looked around at them and took out the document. "Should we This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . review the paperwork for terminating her identity right now?" Chapter 283 Chapter 283 When Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua signed, they were miserably struggling. They didn''t dare to read what was written and were on the verge of a breakdown. Shu Tian vanished from this world after they signed. There was no trace of this person''s identity, let alone her existence and life. Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua, on the other hand, had truly lost their only daughter. They were confronted with a terrifying reality. These two fifty-year-olds silently cried, but no amount of tears could alleviate the pain in their hearts. Following thepletion of the formalities, the director turned to face Li Han, who had remained silent. "Mr. Li, is it still necessary to seal the road section?" The implication was that Shu Tian was gone and that there was no point in continuing the search. Li Han looked at the director and said solemnly. "The road must be closed until Shu Tian is found." "Mr. Li, I hope Miss Shu survives miraculously as well, but I don''t have the final say in this section of the road." When the director heard this, he responded. "I''m afraid it will be difficult for a long time." Is it going to be difficult? Li Han was calm. "So you can''t do anything about it?" "I''m afraid I can''t say that either. I understand your concern, but I''m only a director. So I''d be delighted to assist." The director assumed Li Han was willing to relinquish control and quickly said. "You see, the ident happened a long time ago. I''ve been under a lot of pressure to get this done. I wouldn''t have said that if I didn''t think there was nothing I could do." "It''s fine." Li Han gave him a gentle nod, as if he didn''t mean to me him. "I''ll find someone else to do the things you can''t." He saidter. "I''m just not sure if you''ll be able to get everything you want when you retire in a few years." The director was scared as soon as he heard Li Han''s words. Apart from the material benefits, the most important thing to him at his age was whether he could retire smoothly. After all, many people have been under investigation in recent years. He''d been in a high-ranking position for a long time and worried about his retirement. But, the director realized that he would not retire smoothly. The director was so terrified that he stood up and made a loud noise by moving his chair. "Mr. Li, it''s possible to talk about it. It''s difficult to do it on the spur of the moment, but there''s still time!" The director almost bowed to Li Han as soon as he changed his pretentious demeanor. Given how depressed and out of sorts Li Han was, the director made a request right now and almost forgot Li Han had the resources to make him incapable of surviving. Li Han only loved and treated Shu Tian gently and treated others indifferently. Li Han could kill him in under a minute. "All right, you know, I ce a higher value on things like this. Next time, don''t make me mention it." Li Han ordered coldly. Bing enraged in his mind, the director breathed a sigh of relief. He gave a quick nod and bowed. "Yes, Mr. Li!"were When Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua overheard their conversation, they remained silent and heartbroken since they lost their daughter. "Shu, let''s go." Ye Lihua cried out to her husband. Shu Changlei remained silent with bloodshot eyes. He stood up and helped Ye Lihua ascend. For several days, they couldn''t eat or sleep well and were anxious. When they stood up, they were dazed and almost fell. Li Han reached out unconsciously to assist them, but Ye Lihua dodged. Li Han paused and was awkward. "You don''t have to pretend to be nice here." Ye Lihua said as she looked in the direction of the door. "We won''t be moved by your search for her. You killed Tian inadvertently. You are a half-ountant, and we will never forgive you." A pang of bitterness ran through Li Han as he looked at his missing fingers. Ye Lihua''s words pierced his heart like a dagger. "I know you me me for your hatred of me, uncle and auntie. And I hope to be the person who died. I hurt Tian, and I''m sorry to her and to you, but I''m not going to die." Ye Lihua was unconcerned and was about to sneer when she heard Li Han say something else. "I''ll live like this for the rest of my life, carrying the guilt and longing for her. I''m not going to marry anyone else in my life, even if I can''t find her. I''ll look after you and uncle for the rest of my life, not to please you, but to atone for my sins." When Ye Lihua heard these words, she wiped away her tears with her hand. Everyone had no way of knowing what would happen in the future. It was as if they had never imagined something bad happening to Shu Tian. Ye Lihua couldn''t be a shrew because she wasn''t vicious and didn''t know how to face the man who her daughter adored. Even though his eyes were swollen from crying, Shu Changlei took Ye Lihua into his arms and looked at Li Han with great authority. "You owe Shu Tian, not us, and it''s not us you should repay. She''s gone, This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. and you have no way of repaying her. So let us all live in misery. We will not forgive you because she has passed away, and you will never be forgiven by her." Shu Changlei never looked at him after that and walked out with Ye Lihua out of the office hand in hand. Outside, Li Han had already directed that people follow the elderly couple, fearing that they would be involved in an ident. In the office, he and the director were the only ones left. Li Han clenched fists and felt so depressed that he couldn''t breathe because of the reality. He knelt slightly and sorrowfully covered his chest with his hand. "Mr. Li?" The director screamed worriedly. Li Han closed and then reopened his eyes. His once-sharp eyes were no longer as bright as they had been. He walked out of the office without saying anything. He could walk and talk as before, but he had long been defeated by reality and was heartbroken. The light outside the house fell on his eyelids as he walked out of the police station. Li Han narrowed the tearful eyes slightly. Chapter 284 Chapter 284 Shu Tian basically slept over during the trip from J City to the UK. She was already greatly frightened. This together with the travel and her pregnancy made her feel extremely exhausted. Meng Shichuan sensed her mood swings and ordered the doctor apanying them to give her a sedative. When she woke up a few dayster, she had already arrived at the airport in Irnd. Because it was a private ne, the parking area was very far from the public airport. When the nended, Meng Shichuan woke her up, took the thick coat beside her, and covered her. Shu Tian subconsciously dodged her body to hide. The man then frowned, and he forcefully put it on her before letting her out of the cabin door. As soon as the cabin door was opened, a cold wind blew over. Shu Tian looked up at the gray sky and felt a sense of security. It turned out that she was really so far away from that city. "Let''s go." The man''s deep voice suddenly came. Meng Shichuan reminded her by her side. Shu Tian looked down and looked at thedder, slowly walking down. The shuttle bus took them to a waiting room. There were only a few people apanying them, including the service staff in the VIP waiting room. Shu Tian turned her head and looked at him in confusion, "Aren''t we leaving?" Meng Shichuan asked the waiter to bring a cup of coffee over. He replied without looking up at her, "There''s still a transferter." "Where are we going?" "London." As the capital of the UK, London was a very developed and ancient city. London was thergest financial and trade center in the world, and Shu Tian only knew it from the book. "Are we going there... To settle down?" Hearing this, Meng Shichuan raised his head slightly and looked at her, "You will stay in London before delivering the child. After the child is born, you can choose for yourself." Shu Tian was a little surprised that Meng Shichuan was so easy to talk to. She pulled the coat on her and muttered, "Thank you." The man didn''t respond as if he hadn''t heard anything. Not long after, someone informed them that they could board the ne. Shu Tian followed the tall and strong man and stepped onto the ne step by step. Her mood was as distressed as the gray sky. The ne then took off, which was only 30 minutes after it hadnded just now. She had just slept all the way. At this time, she was not sleepy at all. She did not know what she was thinking. All she could feel was ethereal. Not long after, Meng Shichuan walked over and handed her a document, "Take a look." Shu Tian looked over his arm and stared at it, "What is this?" "Your new identity." She was a little surprised and raised her hand to take it. It was a thin brown paper bag. When it was opened, there was a form in English with a Chinese trantion attached. It was a resume she had never seen before. "You don''t have to worry about the exposure. This identity is quite safe. All her previous experiences happened before in this resume are real." Shu Tian did not know how Meng Shichuan got such an identity, but she could imagine that from now N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content. on, she would say goodbye to the Shu Tian in the past. She would be a person that was If she wanted to start a new life, she must forget everything about the past. Suran. Seeing this strange name, tears kept rolling in her eyes. Shu Tian held them back and didn''t shed tears out. She raised her hand to touch her lower abdomen. Those fears and worries about the future made her very nervous and scared, but she had no way out. She must think for this baby and for herself. There were mountains and seas between them, though they were in deep love with each other. These mountains and seas were such formidable barriers. Just allow the little obsession to dwell in her mind for a while longer! [...] Li Han hadpletely let go of himself. Thepany, family, his body, and everything else could not upy his mind. The only thing he wanted to do now was to find Shu Tian. At first, he had spent whole days at the scene of the ident. Butter, he preferred to go there at night. He was afraid that Tian would be afraid of being there alone, and he was also afraid that he would not be able to survive through the memories that urred to him every night. It was too painful. On everyte and quiet night, he even hallucinated. Several times he seemed to have seen Shu Tian standing at home, standing in front of him. He also had dreamed that Shu Tian appeared in front of him with blood all over her face, telling him that she would never forgive him for the rest of his life. Those images were obviously fake, which were all from his imagination. But it was like a big that wrapped him tightly inside, making him suffocate. This man, who didn''t like to talk originally, was even more reticent. He didn''t like to talk, didn''t like to He looked like a walking corpse, but he was not so. Because his heart was always suffering excruciating pain, every minute and every second. This reminded him that everything was not over. He lived every day with sorrow. He had wanted to die, but he was afraid that Shu Tian would suddenly appear one day and couldn''t find him. He thought that he just need to live like this. Death, though, would end all his suffering and guilt, he didn''t even deserve to die. He just had to live like this, living while tormenting himself. He wanted to atone for his sins. He went to the sea every day and said good night when he left at night, regardless of whether she could really hear him or not. He began to drink and began to like the feeling of being drunk. Only alcohol could numb his heart and let him rest for a while. So that his heart would be spared of aching. This day was like any other day before. After drinking, he was sent back to the vi by a designated driver. The vi used to be such a warm ce, he now only felt so lonely and cold after reviving memories. He staggered into the door, and even the driver could not bear to look at him. This man was generous, dressed extraordinarily, and lived in such a luxurious vi. He had everything, but he looked more painful than anyone else. Li Han directly walked into the entryway. Nanny Li had been arranged by him to go somewhere else. The vi was not lighted and was pitch dark. Only the sensor lights at the door gave out a dim light. Li Han leaned over slightly to change his slippers. During this time, he felt a soft and warm body suddenly wrapped around his waist, and a woman''s fair and slender arm appeared in front of him. His body suddenly froze. In a daze, he remembered what he had experienced with Shu Tian before. Back then he asionally came backte from social events. She would do something of her own on the sofa and wait for him toe home. Every time he entered the door, she would run over and hug him. She would look up and say to him with a smile, "You''re back." The scene in his mind was so clear that it seemed this had just happened yesterday. The alcohol was flowing in his blood. He was so desperate for her at this moment that he turned over and held the woman in his arms in bewilderment. He seemed to be possessed by the devil, "Tian, you''re finally back. I miss you so much. I''ve been living like hell these days. It''s not good at all. Please don''t go anymore..." Hearing this, the woman''s body stiffened for a moment. But the next second, she opened her arms and responded to him, "I''m not leaving. I''ll always be with you." Chapter 285 Chapter 285 Li Han closed his eyes tightly, and his voice trembled. "I thought you wouldn''t be back." The woman froze, but she didn''t loosen his grip. Instead, she said slowly, "No, I''m here, right? We''ll be together. No one can part me from you." She repeated, "Don''t worry. We''ll be together. No one can part me from you." However, her repetition made Li Han awaken and realize that she was not Tian. Tian would never say such deliberate, extreme, and selfish words. She was not Tian! Li Han suddenly opened his eyes and pushed the woman in his arms out. The button of the light pressed, the living room was lit. The dazzling light allowed Li Han to see the woman clearly. Jiang Chujing was caught off guard and pushed back a few steps. Finally, she knocked down the steps of the entrance, looking at the sober man in panic. Her dirty plots were exposed. "Han, what happened..." Her voice and face made Li Han disgusted. Her appearance made him suffer because Shu Tian had left because of him and Jiang Chujing. "Why are you here?" The man frowned in disgust and even took off the coat that she had touched. He looked at her as if he were looking at the garbage on the side of the road. "Dirty!" Dirty? Jiang Chujing''s originally pale face became even gloomier. She had just left the hospital. However, he This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . treated her in such a rude way. Although she knew that she had already annoyed Li Han, the word "dirty" was too harsh. But Jiang Chujing soon calmed down. What could make her happier than Shu Tian''s death? No. Since she heard that Shu Tian died, happiness had welled up. At the thought that the bitch could no longer stand between her and Li Han, Jiang Chujing plucked up to see him. "I miss you very much. I heard that you have been in bad condition recently and that you alwayse homete to drink, so I wanted to see you." Jiang Chujing knelt on the ground and looked at him pitifully. But Li Han knew that she was not pitiful at all. If she had been worried about him, she wouldn''t have entered his house secretly. How could he indulge her to cross the line again and again? How could he make her misunderstand that he would never punish her? Li Han sobered up and nced at Jiang Chujing with sharp eyes. He suppressed his anger but his voice was cold, "Get out! Now!" She crossed the line by imitating Shu Tian''s tone this time. Jiang Chujing did not expect him to lose his temper. She staggered to her feet and pretended to fall. Unfortunately, the man ignored her totally. After picking herself up, she murmured, "I''m sorry. I didn''t mean to disturb you. I know you''ve been in a bad mood recently, and I''m really worried about you and miss you. George said I could be discharged, so I..." "You aren''t allowed to enter the house." The man fixed her with sharp and freezing cold eyes. His gaze sent a chill down her spine. She gritted her teeth and walked up to him. She said, "Han, I can go if you''re unhappy, but you can''t bring her back to life. Let bygones be bygones. I''ll be with you and take good care of you. I can do whatever Shu Tian can, even better than her!" "Better?" Li Han raised his fist and smashed it hard against the wall beside the woman''s face. The gust of wind pierced the air with a muffled sound. His deep eyes glittered with anger, and he gritted his teeth, "Who allowed you to say she''s dead, huh?" He was like an enraged lion, his eyes bloodshot, trying to swallow all the women who judged Shu Tian. This was not the first time Li Han had lost his temper in front of Jiang Chujing, but it was the one that scared Jiang Chujing the most. Now, the name "Shu Tian" was like a trigger that could easily make Li Han lose his cool. "No, I didn''t mean it..." Jiang Chujing was startled and nced out of the corner of her eye at his fist with the veins bulging out. He almost punched her in the face. There was a deafening silence. It was obvious that Li Han was trying to calm himself down. Otherwise, he might have hurt Jiang Chujing. The atmosphere was so tense. At this moment, the door of the vi was knocked. "Knock, knock, knock." The sound was light but clear. It was sote. Could it be Li Han''s friend? ''My savior wasing,'' Jiang Chujing thought. She immediately took two steps aside and opened the door in relief. However, when Jiang Chujing saw the terrible face outside, she gasped. The light outside the door was dim, but Jiang Chujing could clearly see the woman''s terrible and even deformed face that seemed to be eroded by sulphuric acid. Jiang Chujing couldn''t even tell the woman''s facial features. The flesh at the edge of her chin was even stuck to her neck. There were several red scars on her forehead, and her nose waspletely deformed. The two nostrils were not in the same size and shape. The woman''s lips were swollen. Only her eyes weren''t injured. The woman outside didn''t look like a person but like a ghost. Jiang Chujing was about to close the door. However, the woman outside took a step forward and reached out to stop Jiang Chujing. Her hand was mped in the crack of the door, but she did not seem to feel it at all. Her strength was terrifying like a dying man who was struggling. Jiang Chujing was obviously no match. The door was pulled open, and Jiang Chujing''s body staggered forward, but she immediately stepped back. "You... You are..." The woman moved up the corners of her ugly mouth and she snorted like a pig. Even her voice was extremely hoarse. "It''s only been a few days but you don''t even recognize me?" Her voice was so hoarse that others couldn''t even understand her words. However, Jiang Chujing understood. She covered her mouth and staggered back, her back covered in a cold sweat. "You..." "Yes, it''s me. I''m not dead. I''m here to settle the score with you." The woman then nced at the man beside Jiang Chujing. "But now, I have something to tell Mr. Li." Li Han looked at the deformed face and said in an unfriendly tone, "Who are you?" The woman was shocked, then raised her hand to touch her face, and sneered. "I''m Jiang Mengyao." A cold wind blew, making people''s hearts lurch. Li Han was shocked. Though he couldn''t recall her appearance clearly, he knew Jiang Mengyao hadn''t been as scary as she was now. "I know my face has been deformed, which was a gift from Miss Jiang." Jiang Mengyao''s eyes rolled like an owl. Her eyes were scary and sharp. "Speaking of this, I have to exin my rtionship with Miss Jiang." Jiang Mengyao''s appearance made Li Han extremely disgusted. He intended to ask men to drag her out, "Leave your words to police officers." But Jiang Mengyao refused to move and fixed him with bloodshot eyes. "Don''t you want to know the truth of Shu Tian''s case?" Chapter 286 Chapter 286 Her words sessfully made Li Han freeze. He paused, looked up at the door, and said, "What do you know?" Hearing this, Jiang Mengyao knew that her chance for revenge had finallye. She took a step forward and walked into the room, "I know all the tricks and schemes." Li Han lowered his head and edited a message, "You only have fifteen minutes." "That''s enough." Up to now, she had never thought of leaving unscathed since she dared toe. She had been scoping out the hospital for so long and had finally followed Jiang Chujing here. She would jump at the chance. She wanted to tell everything she knew, even if she had to risk her life! Jiang Chujing knew that it was all over when she saw Jiang Mengyao. Her body trembled uncontrobly, and she felt a shiver up her spine She plunged into a dark abyss of despair in an instant. "Are you surprised by Zhang Lancheng''s death?" Jiang Mengyao spoke in a hoarse voice as if she had to exert all her strength to utter every word. "You think she is Jiang Chujing''s grandmother, herst family member in the world, so you subconsciously denied the possibility that she would kill Zhang Lancheng. However, you certainly didn''t expect that Jiang Chujing would ask me to go to the previous hospital before Zhang Lancheng was transferred. She knew that Zhang Lancheng would not live long and nned everything to let her die early and to frame Shu Tian." Jiang Mengyao''s words blew Li Han''s mind, which shattered all his senses. He stiffened, and a terrible idea gradually formed in his mind. His voice shook, "What else do you know?" "I also know that in the Affiliated University of the First Hospital, there is a man named Chen Bo. That bottle of DH23 poison that appeared in the ward was made by him, and he handed it to me personally. I avoided the security cameras and hid it in the corner of the back garden ording to Jiang Chujing''s instructions." Jiang Mengyao sneered, and her voice was as unpleasant as sandpapering, "As for why she wanted this bottle of poison, you should know it well, shouldn''t you?" "Nonsense! I have no idea about that. That''s venomously nder! Now, Shu Tian is dead. There''s no way to prove what you say!" Jiang Chujing snapped. "Well, when Shu Tian was alive, she also didn''t understand why she would die." Jiang Mengyao thought of the woman who used to be her friend and a rival in love and now was dead. "Jiang Chujing, you are the most vicious woman. You can even kill the person closest to you. I shouldn''t have believed you at that time. How could a person who could even kill her own grandmother keep her word?" "Shut up!" Jiang Mengyao didn''t care about her at all. She turned to look at Li Han, "I admit that the main reason that I joined hands with her at that time was to avoid the pursuit of the police and then to take a sum of money to go abroad to live a free, roving life. However, she never thought of letting me go from the beginning, so now, I will tell you everything, even if it will take my life. I don''t have to lie." Jiang Chujing looked up and met the man''s gaze. The emotion in his dark eyes could crush her whole body. For the first time, Jiang Chujing saw the killing intent in Li Han''s eyes. Right, this man wanted her to die desperately. She shook her head shakily, "No, that''s not true. Han, you have to believe me. I didn''t do anything. She is talking nonsense!" "I am talking nonsense?" Jiang Chujing''s argument was thest straw that crushed Jiang Mengyao. She didn''t get anything. Her face was disfigured, and even her voice sounded like this. She had no scruples at all. Now, even if she received a sum of money, she could not find hope for life. Her life had long been ruined by Jiang Chujing and was a living hell. "You hired a professional assassin to go against me and asked him to cut my vocal cords to make me lose my voice. Do you think you can cover up the truth this way?" Jiang Mengyao seemed to have lost her mind, and sheughed creepily, "You have considered everything but just missed one. You are usually cautious. How could you be so reckless at that critical moment? Do you think I have no This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. preparation? You said you didn''t do it. Well, you should be able to hear who was talking in this recording, shouldn''t you?" As Jiang Mengyao spoke, she took out a recorder from her pocket. It was small and silver, only two inches long. When she pressed the button, a familiar voice immediately sounded. "Have you got the thing?" "Yes, I''ve got it." "Okay, find a way to put it in the back garden of the Ling''s Hospital. I''ll take itter." "Are there any security cameras?" "No, there is no security camera there. I''ve checked it." [...] While hearing the familiar voice, Jiang Chujing trembled, and her face was as pale as a ghost. She froze and heard the sound of blood flowing in her veins. It flowed towards her heart, went through her cardiac chamber, and released huge pressure to her limbs. She knew that she could not respond perfunctorily anymore. The conversation was not long. In the end, she heard her own voice. "Everything will settle down soon. After that, you can leave." "This injection is deadly poisonous. What do you want to do?" At that time, Jiang Mengyao''s voice was still normal. "Don''t worry, I won''t kill her. I''ll let others make her suffer." Every word fell into her eardrums clearly, like a marble falling on the ground and bouncing repeatedly. The atmosphere was quiet, and the huge vi seemed to be filled with the echo of her words. She wouldn''t kill her. She would let others make her suffer. How straightforward it was. Jiang Chujing seemed to have been drenched in ice water and felt chilled to the bone. The source of her coldness was none other than the man walking towards her step by step. His handsome face didn''t change, but Jiang Chujing felt that everything was different. It was scary to even look at him. Li Han looked at the woman who had fallen to the ground. He had never hated a person so much that he wished he could kill her with his own hands now. He had just taken the side of the evildoer. After years of painstaking efforts and care, he only came to this end. Li Han''s heart seemed to be drenched in hot oil, hard and numb. He walked up to Jiang Chujing and looked down at her as if this was thest judgment, "You did it." He didn''t question her but calmly statemented the fact. Chapter 287 Chapter 287 Jiang Chujing was terrified that she jumped down and held the man''s ankle. "Han, don''t believe her. it was true that I had wanted to deal with Shu Tian, but I didn''t do anything..." The man''s face was frighteningly gloomy, like a stormy night. He said calmly, "How about the recording ?" "Recording..." Jiang Chujing crawled on the smooth ground, her eyes rolled, and she stammered for a long time without saying a word of exnation. Everything happened all of a sudden. Jiang Mengyao''s appearance was already unexpected. She had no time to care about so much. Now she was unmasked, she couldn''t say anything convincing. She didn''t know what to say, because it was all true and was clear. "You killed Zhang Lancheng." Li Han lost any affection for her. He felt so guilty for Su Tian that he started to feel angry, bitter and remorseful. "No, I..." Jiang Chujing knew she couldn''t admit it, so she kept denying. The man said with an evil smile, "You know, you can''t hide anything from me if I investigate." "No, no, Han. Listen to me. I don''t want this to happen. I have my reasons..." Jiang Chujing burst into tears, but these tears could no longer move the man beside her. Hepletely lost any feelings for her. She was worse than a stranger. His beloved woman was killed by her, and all his affection and tolerance were abused by her to protect herself. Thinking of this, he felt heartbroken. He pulled his ankle back from her hands and bent over to grab Jiang Chujing by the cor, pulling her off the ground. He stared at her and said word by word with red eyes, "You forced Shu Tian to death, and now you want to rece her. I indulged you so badly that you dared to y tricks so unscrupulously. Now that she''s in trouble, do you think I''ll let you get away with it?" How protective he was for her in the past, then how hateful he felt towards her now. What she did the most vicious was she began to use his feelings for her and his guilt towards the Jiang family to achieve her own goals. Jiang Chujing''s skin around her neck was hurt by the fabric. She looked at him in shock. She was really panicking, so she said in a fit of anger, "You can''t do this to me. You promised my parents that you would take care of me for the rest of my life. Now you have broken your promise and wronged my parents. They died because of you!" "I''m sorry for your parents, but I''m not sorry for you. My efforts over the years and the lives of Shu Tian Belonging to N?velDrama.Org. and the child in her womb are enough to repay the debt!" Li Han stared at her in an extremely harsh way. Thinking that he had forced Shu Tian and her child to death because of such a vicious woman, he regretted it greatly. But it was useless. He suffered and started to despise himself, and hated himself for not trusting her more. He hated himself since he was also guilty. He hated himself that he could not die in her ce! "Shu Tian has a miserable life. She has risked her life to love two men, but none of them really loved her." Jiang Mengyao suddenly sneered, "I guess we would see each other soon in the other world." In fact, when she heard of Shu Tian''s ident, Jiang Mengyao was a little confused. She thought that only she was in a difficult situation, but she did not expect Shu Tian to be worse. In contrast, she was less resentful of her but more resentful of Jiang Chujing. She and Shu Tian had known each other for a long time, and she knew most of her stories. She could not say that she was sad about her death, but she did feel it was a pity . They both led an unfair life. After saying this, the door of the vi was once again opened. The first person to enter was Pei Yu, followed by a few tall men in ck shirts. Jiang Mengyao stood there without looking back and gently closed her eyes. She knew what these people wereing for. The next second, her arms and neck were held and her body was pushed against the wall on one side. Her cheeks were pressed against the wall, and her teeth were knocked against her deformed lips, which were covered in red blood. She had no intention of struggling and was taken out with her hands tied up. Pei Yu was shocked by Li Han''s doing to Jiang Chujing. In his memory, Li Han had always been very tolerant of this woman. He never said anything harsh or being rude to her. But now he even did this to her... He was surprised indeed. "Mr. Li, I''ll take her away," Pei Yu reminded. "Don''t let her die. She still has some value." When Li Han said this, he stared into Jiang Zhujiang''s tearful eyes, and his look made her terrified. "Value?" Pei Yu was puzzled. "What value does she have?" Li Han suddenly let go of his hand and pushed her back. There was nothing but hatred in his eyes. "She could tell them the truth. The murderer in the Shu Tian case is not anyone else but the one is in front of me." "What?" Even Pei Yu widened his eyes and look at the woman who was cowering on the ground in disbelief. "It''s you?!" From the beginning of this incident to now, everyone had been involved in this thing. They all witnessed that how Li Han and Shu Tian were suffering, however, they were still doomed in the end. But... Pei Yu frowned. Hatred grew and reced the shock. He never expected that Zhang Lancheng''s closest rtive would hurt her. "You''re right. Your parents'' deaths have something to do with me. I promised them that I would take good care of you, but I promised to take care of that innocent and sensible you, not a murderer. I''m also responsible for what you''ve be today. It was my indulgence that helped the devil in your heart. So I will definitely kill it by myself" Li Han read out her crimes bit by bit like a judge. "You killed Shu Tian, and I will never forgive you for the rest of my life. I will send you to the police station tomorrow, and everything after that will be carried out ording tow." "No... No!" Jiang Chujing was terrified. She knew he was serious. From his attitude towards Shu Tian, she could tell that she put down all her dignity, grabbed the man''s feet, and cried for mercy, "Han, I''m not in good health. You''re asking me to die. Didn''t you want me to go abroad for treatment? I promise you this time, okay? ..." "It''s toote." The man refused her mercilessly, avoiding all her touch. He was angry and sad. "Shu Tian and the child died because of you. If I saved you or forgive you, I would be your aplice." Jiang Chujing still wanted to say something, even if she was dragged out by someone with her arms and still turned her head to shout, but unfortunately, the man''s heart was as hard as iron and his mind could not be changed. In the end, the woman''s screams were cut off from the door. Pei Yu felt bad looking at him who was deste under the light. "Mr. Li Han, I''ll take her away. Don''t think too much." After saying that, he seemed to feel that it was impossible not to think in such an environment. He added, "Why don''t you stay with me for a few days?" At least he might feel better if he couldn''t see it. "There is no need." The man''s voice was hoarse and tinged with sadness. "If shees back one day and finds out that I''m not here, she''ll be sad." After that, no matter what Pei Yu thought, he walked straight to the second floor, the bedroom where he and Shu Tian had stayed for countless days and nights. The huge vi was quiet, so quiet that it made his heart feel cold. He thought that his friends used to gather here to have some fun. How could he have thought that there would be such a day? Pei Yu sighed silently. It was all a karmic debt. Chapter 288 Chapter 288 Jiang Chujing was soon imprisoned after Jiang Mengyao was arrested. During the short trial, Jiang Mengyao confessed everything quickly. Jiang Chujing, on the other hand, had been denying all the charges with lies even when faced with a lie detector. Her high mental diathesis surprised everyone. She no longer felt guilty of any evil deeds of hers since she had done too much wrong. She felt numb to everything, lying to others in an extremely calm tone as if she was telling the truth. Out of everyone''s expectation, Chen Bo, who had invented the DH23 poison, turned out to be the breakthrough in the case. This famous professor at the Affiliated University of the First Hospital in J City would inevitably be brought down from the pedestal. Jiang Mengyao was not surprisingly sentenced to death with the progress of the case while Jiang Chujing''s trial continued to be postponed. Everyone was waiting for Li Han''s decision until the day the case was closed. He told the person in charge calmly that everything would be carried out following the normal procedure. Jiang Chujing was sentenced to death. Feeling sorry for Jiang Chujing''s parents, Li Han couldn''t watch her die. However, that didn''t mean he would let her go. Jiang Chujing didn''t regret what she had done at all and thus didn''t deserve forgiveness. The verdict was changed into life imprisonment. Li Han provided her with a single room in prison and the same medical treatment from another team of doctors, excluding George. However, all of this meant nothing to Jiang Chujing since she just moved from one cage to another. And this time, Li Han wouldn''t be there for her anymore. She kept applying for Li Han''s visit but never received any answer. He wouldn''te. Ever since she realized this, her health started to degenerate at a terrifyingly fast speed. At first, she wished that Li Han woulde to see her after knowing her condition. However, no one ever visited her. She had been forgotten by everyone, left alone in such a narrow and damp room. Every minute of this miserable life made her want to kill herself. And she actually killed herself on a night after six months, out of everyone''s expectation. No one knew what she was thinking at herst moment and how she managed to hide a knife in her sleeve while eating. This woman, who had brought countless troubles and contradictions, finally ended her life in a tragic way by shing her wrist. She was right. Li Han was the source of every feeling she had in her life. There was no point in living without him. She had been captured by this twisted love for her entire life until thest second. Li Han was smoking on the balcony at home when he heard her death. His courtyard was covered in lush green vegetation at the end of summer. This was a season of vitality but all he felt was depression. Jiang Chujing was dead. Li Han wasn''t sure what feeling he had when he heard this. Maybe he didn''t feel anything at all since he had foreseen this ending. When he recalled their past, he realized he had never really known her. Jiang Chujing had been admiring him and even begging him for his love, which gave people a false impression that Li Han was in the dominant position in this rtionship. However, the truth was Li Han had always been the passive one who struggled to run away from Jiang Chujing''s pestering. The funeral was simple. Either the ugliness and the hatred in this rtionship or those seemingly happy moments would just disappear like bubbles. The dead could not be brought back to life. This exhausting farce finally came to the end. [...] On the other side of the ocean, Shu Tian heard about Jiang Chujing''s death from Meng Shichuan two days after the incident. The woman, who had put Shu Tian in danger so many times, died like this. Shu Tian had mixed feelings, not knowing how to react to this news. She didn''t feel sad or sorry. Neither could she find any pleasure of revenge in her heart. She just sat there in peace with a tight chest. She had never expected Jiang Chujing to end her life so easily. In Shu Tian''s opinion, a vicious woman like Jiang Chujing would try her best to get what she wanted until thest moment of her life. To Shu Tian''s surprise, Jiang Chujing, a stubborn and paranoid woman, killed herself. Shu Tian suddenly figured out that everyone in this world, including the viins who seemed to care about nothing, had his or her own weakness. As Shu Tian stared out the window in a daze, Meng Shichuan walked slowly towards her and covered her shoulders with a thin nket of pure wool. "Don''t think too much. Have a rest in bed." She was almost eight months pregnant and the due date wasing. The family hired a nanny and a doctor to take care of her at home. In a few days, she would go to the hospital and wait for delivery. It was no good for her health to be bothered by those things. Shu Tian looked down at her bulging abdomen which had been t when she came here. As the fetus grew bigger, the increasing weight caused her ankles to swell. Her whole body was bloating. A pit would be left on her skin every time she pressed her finger on it. Suffering from a strong pregnancy reaction, she found it extremely difficult to take food, especially during the period of 3 to 6 months when she relied on glucose and various nutrition needles to maintain alive. Shu Tian couldn''t work while pregnant so she had been financially supported by Meng Shichuan in the past few months. Therefore, she always felt a little embarrassed in front of him. In the past six months, Shu Tian had a better understanding of this man. He was mysterious but indeed a gentleman who didn''t take advantage of her terrible situation or ask her for anything. They didn''t spend time with each other frequently. Meng Shichuan came here once or twice a week, mostly at the weekend, and went on business trips on weekdays. Intentionally or unintentionally, he kept a distance from her so that she wouldn''t feel offended. Shu Tian read books onw in her free time, preparing for the bar exam in Ennd after the baby was born. The only thing she was happy about in this torment was that, as she was looking forward to seeing her baby, she didn''t think of Li Han as often as before. Even if she did asionally, his face would only sh through her mind for seconds and disappear quickly. "Thank you, Meng Shichuan." Shu Tian said it solemnly with sincere gratitude. Meng Shichuan was standing beside her. From this angle, Shu Tian''s skin was fair and soft. Perhaps it had something to do with her pregnancy. Her face turned plumper and more smooth than before. Meng Shichun could see her slender neck and delicate facial features with her hair tied up. She was the most beautiful pregnant woman he had ever seen. That was why he didn''t dare to live with her, afraid to lose control of himself and hurt her. By going on a business trip and focusing on work, he tried to distract his attention from her. Fortunately, he was a man with great self-control. "I''ll send someone to take you to the hospital for delivery in a few days. You can rx and have a good rest there. Don''t think about anything else," he whispered to her, covering up a trace of restlessness in Belonging to N?velDrama.Org. his heart. Stroking her abdomen, Shu Tian looked into the distance. After a long time of silence, she said in a choked voice, "This baby survived because of you. He will remember this for the rest of his life." Touched by her words, Meng Shichuan felt like his heart was being tugged. Somehow, it didn''t hurt but made him itchy. Tenderness shed in his eyes as he gave her a smile. "I saved him because of you. You should thank yourself for that." Shu Tian''s eyes turned red with an urge to cry. Living in a foreign country alone was hard. Meng Shichuan''s wordsforted her heart, which had been suffering from anxiety, like a warm current flowing into it. She couldn''t help but pray to god. Please give all her luck to her baby so that he coulde to this world healthy and safe. Chapter 289 Chapter 289 What Shu Tian had experienced and suffered in a foreign country waspletely unimaginable to Li Han. He waspletely depressed. At first, he could still rely on alcohol to numb himself. But before long, the method became useless and he had no way to cope with that. Ling Junze and the others saw that Li Han was being passive and depressed, but there was nothing they could do about it. Although Li Han used to speak little and he was positive deep in his heart, but ever since Shu Tian disappeared, this man hadpletely changed. He started to be pessimistic. He hated this world, even with thew that he used to take pride in. Others'' words were useless for him. He could only survive this situation by himself. Half a year had passed and Li Han rarely went to thepany during that time. But one morning, he arrived at the office. Ji Chuanyi was looking at today''s schedule. He was surprised when he came in, then stood up happily to greet him. "You finally came." He thought Li Han had thought better of it and was willing toe back to work as before. Unexpectedly, what he said next was shockingly surprising, "I''m leaving the legal profession. Let''s make a statement this noon." "What?!" Ji Chuanyi was also an experiencedwyer, but he was still shocked to hear him that, "Han, what... what did you say?" "I will quit. I don''t want to get involved with thew in the future." He had to get out of it, or else he would resent himself for the rest of his life. Thew he believed in the most helped so many people but ndered the woman he loved the most. This was the most uneptable thing to him. Seeing his being so determined, Ji Chuanyi frowned. "Han, calm down and be rational. You and I have built up thispany and run it sessfully until today. What should you do when you leave the "You can do it on your own." Li Han said without thinking. His dark eyes were filled with determination. "Thepany would be fine without me. Liu Cheng is also good at his work. You could promote him to help you when I leave." Since he said so, it seemed he had already made up his mind. For a moment, Ji Chuanyi suddenly didn''t know what to say. He had never expected Li Han to make such a decision. He had never thought that one day this man would leave the profession he once loved the most. When he finished his studies, he was so proud and confident that he set foot in this industry. No matter how difficult things were in the past, he did not flinch at all, but now... Ji Chuanyi took a deep breath. "Han, I know you''re sad. There are some things I shouldn''t say as an outsider, but as a brother, I want to tell you the truth. I know that Shu Tian''s departure is a heavy blow to you, but one cannot put back the clock. I hope you could move forward. I never thought that one day you would be like this. Have you ever thought about what you would do after you quit? Even if you don''t want to be responsible for yourself, if Shu Tian were still alive, she wouldn''t want to see you like this." At first, Li Han did not listen to Ji Chuanyi. Countless people around him had tried to motivate him. After a long time, he was used to that, but thest sentence undoubtedly touched him. The man was silent for a moment, then curled his lips ironically and he muttered with an affection, "If only she was really alive." As soon as he finished, the office fell into an awful silence. Ever since Shu Tian''s ident, this almost became a taboo among them. It was really unbearable for anyone to continue to live when his or her loved one passed away. N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content. But as his best friend, he couldn''t let this man live in an illusion and harm himself as well as the people around him. He missed the man who was upied with the work and was arrogant as well as rational. "Han, how long will it take you to face reality?" Face reality? The man curled his lips with a sarcastic look. "I would keep searching for her for the rest of my life until I do find her." Ji Chuanyi sounded a little angry. "You want to waste the rest of your life, and then fantasize that she''s not dead. How could you be so sure that she is still alive? How long will you still lie to yourself? If Shu Tian were still alive, she would definitely show up in front of you by now!" After saying this, Ji Chuanyi thought that he might have some response, whether it was angry or sad. But the man only raised his hand and pinched his temple. His palm covered half of his face. He leaned back on the sofa depressingly and painful. He took a deep breath, and his voice was weak. "Just let me do it. The moment when I face reality, I would be not far from death." Ji Chuanyi was gagged by this sentence. He fixed his eyes on the man on the sofa. At this moment, he could not say anything. There seemed to be a lump of cotton in his throat, which made him anxious. At this moment, he saw the man''s determination. epting Shu Tian''s death meant death to him to some extent. [...] More than a monthter, it was rainy in London, the UK, at four o''clock in this afternoon, Outside the delivery room of the most expensive private confinement centre in the area, there came a hurried but clear sound of footsteps. Apanied by the nurse outside, there came the man walking dressed in a tailored suit with his hair neatlybed above his head, and a pair of golden eyes on the bridge of his nose. The facial features on his face were strong and charming. If he hadn''t been followed by a group of men in ck, people would have thought he was a top executive of a technology As he approached, the nurse smelled the faint mint scent on his body. It was very refreshing and not too strong even he came closer to her. The man''s clear and inky eyes looked over and he spoke in an authentic British ent. "How is she?" The nurse was frightened by these men in front of her. Although she did not know Meng Shichuan''s identity, she also knew that he was definitely not amon citizen. She immediately replied respectfully, "The C-section processes sessfully. Everything is fine." Hearing that, Meng Shichuan was slightly relieved. He was making a deal worth hundreds of millions of dors. When he heard the news from the hospital, he immediately left the meeting and rushed over. Fortunately, it was not toote. His handsome and cold face changed slightly when he looked at the delivery room again. The man turned and sat in a long chair in the corridor, his hands on his thighs and legs, his slender index fingers on both sides of his high nose bridge. From time to time, he checked the time and kept waiting. As time passed, the most thing Meng Shichuan had done alone in his early years was to wait, but he had never been as anxious and nervous as he was today. At first, he was still sitting there calmly. After a long time, he got up and started to pace around the corridor. An hour and a halfter, the door of the operating room finally opened. The doctor in the sterile suit carried out a crumpled, fleshy little thing. Meng Shichuan immediately stepped forward and the doctor let him have a look at the crying baby with a smile in his eyes. "It''s a boy, weighing seven and a half pounds. The little guy is very stubborn and cries loudly." Meng Shichuan''s eyes fell on the crumpled and red little thing. He could see his face clearly. It was all wrinkled together, with a small meaty mouth making noise. There were a few light furry hairs on his head. He was not cute at all, instead, it was so ugly that it might even disgust him. How could a pretty and white woman like Shu Tian give birth to such an ugly boy? Chapter 290 Chapter 290 The doctor seemed to be used to his reaction and exined with a smile, "Babies are always like this when they are just born. Their appearances can only be seen clearly when they grow up a little." Seeing that he was a little stiff, the doctor reminded him, "You can touch him gently." For the first time in more than 30 years, Meng Shichuan had seen a newborn baby. He had held money or a knife in his hands, but now he couldn''t do anything to this baby. After several times of tossing and turning, he carefully touched the child''s walnut-sized fist. The moment he touched the baby, a strange feeling arose in his heart. Although the baby was not his own child, it had been nearly a year since he knew that Shu Tian was pregnant. There were some different feelings in his heart. He had killed countless people, but for the first time, he was so happy for the arrival of the baby. Yes, Meng Shichuan was delighted. After the doctor asked him to take a look at the child, the doctor quickly handed the child over to the nurse. The child was just born and needed to be sent to the incubator for observation. Meng Shichuan waited for the lights in the operating room to turn off. After watching Shu Tian being pushed into the ward, he walked in. A c-section was different from a normal delivery. After giving birth to the child, Shu Tian was not in a good condition. She was unusually weak. Her palm-sized face was sunken between her pillow. Her face was pale, and even her lips were also pale. The hair on her forehead was soaked in sweat and pressed against her face. Her fragility could be felt from afar. Fortunately, she was still conscious. Just now, after giving birth, the nurse asked her to take a look at the baby. When she saw him walk in, Shu Tian asked urgently, "Where''s the baby?" The man walked to the bed and pulled a chair over to sit down. "The child was sent to the incubator for observation." After hearing this, Shu Tian was relieved. She got rid of her fatigue. Although the anesthesia had not passed, she could feel that the part of her stomach was empty. She was pregnant for 10 months. The little thing that was in her body finally came to this world. He said calmly, afraid that she would worry. "It''s a boy of 7.8 pounds. The doctor said that he is in good condition. You don''t have to worry." Hearing this, Shu Tian gently closed her eyes. Her eyes were red. She tried to hold it back, but she still couldn''t hold it back. Tears fell down her temples into the hair and her hair was wet. After a while, she opened her eyes and looked down at the man''srge palm on his knee. Her fingertips moved, but she did not lift it up with all her strength. Her delicate brows could not help but frown. Sensing her intention, the man took the initiative to put his hand over her and held her slightly cold palm. "You''ve just given birth. Don''t move." For the first time, Shu Tian did not resist his touch and gave a fragile and sincere smile. Looking into his eyes, it seemed that there were stars sparkling in his eyes. "Meng Shichuan, thank you." She gently held the man''s palm. She was so weak that he could hardly feel her hand, but it was such strength that she seemed to hold his heart. Shu Tian didn''t have any other thoughts. It was all the excitement of being a mother for the first time. She knew that without Meng Shichuan, the child would not be delivered. It was he who gave the baby the chance toe to this world and let the baby open his eyes to see this beautiful ce. The maternal instinct softened Shu Tian''s whole body. She looked at the man in front of her, and every word was so gentle. "When he grows up, I will tell him that he once had an uncle who flew a private ne to his mother to wee him." Meng Shichuan could not help but smile at the nice atmosphere. A smile appeared on his grim face and he said in a deep voice, "Okay." After the baby was born, Shu Tian recovered quickly under the care of servants. She was young after all. Apart from a slight scar on her abdomen, her figure was almost not out of shape, her skin was even better than before, and her whole body was more feminine. As for the child''s household register, Meng Shichuan also solved it very well. This man always had a way to deal with these difficult problems. He was super efficient, but the power behind him was also scary. Shu Tian didn''t know how he got it all done. He didn''t say anything and she didn''t ask. "Have you decided on the child''s name?" On the day of her baby''s registration, Meng Shichuan asked her this. Shu Tian had already thought about it. Looking at the baby sleeping soundly in the crib, she slowly said two words, "Shu Xiao." Meng Shichuan raised his eyebrows. He didn''t expect her to let the child have her surname. However, it was good that he didn''t like to think of Li Han when seeing the baby all the time. The man pondered for a moment and called softly, "Xiao?" "That means living freely." Shu Tian met his gaze and smiled in relief. "I''ve been living too hard for half of my life. I hope he can grow up healthily and live freely." Meng Shichuan nodded. "Okay, it''s up to you." Shu Tian looked at him intently, her gaze attracting the man''s sideways gaze. "What are you looking at?" Belonging to N?velDrama.Org. "No." She looked away. "I just don''t think I can repay you for what you''ve done to me." Hearing her say this, the man put down the crystal cup in his hand and turned slightly towards Shu Tian. His hands were crossed, revealing the expensive watch. When his long and narrow eyes were focused on something, there was a sudden cold and hot charm in them. His eyes were sparkling, he said, "How about marrying me?" He seemed to be joking, but he was not joking. Shu Tian''s heart tightened and she immediately said. "You know it''s impossible..." "How is that impossible?" Meng Shichuan cut her off and didn''t like to hear her say this. His eyes became sharp. "It''s good for you and the child to be with me. You have an honorable status and won''t suffer any grievances. I can satisfy you physically. Is it not good?" "No." Shu Tian frowned and looked serious. "I''m very grateful for what you''ve done to us, but this gratitude is but not love." "Then can you bear to see your child being ostracized because of not having a father in the future? As a woman who gets pregnant before marriage, it will be very difficult for you, too." "I deserve it." Shu Tian bit her lip, her teeth pressed against her lips, and left a mark. She looked at him stubbornly with her eyes. "Maybe it''s unfair to the child, but I also have to be responsible for my feelings. I hope you can respect me." After experiencing two failed rtionships, Shu Tian had no hope of a rtionship. She did not know if she would fall in love with others, but at this stage, she would not. Meng Shichuan looked at her little face, his chest suddenly trembled with a deepugh. "I''m not a person who likes to be rejected, but it''s strange that your rejection attracts me more than your promise." "..." Shu Tian opened her mouth but was speechless. Could she think that this man was a freak? "This is just one of my suggestions. If you don''t want to, just pretend that I didn''t mention it." After that, the man''s gaze suddenly deepened, and his eagle-like sharp gaze fell on her. "I''ll let you listen to me sooner orter." Chapter 291 Chapter 291 After giving birth, Shu Tian''s life began to be regr. In this strange country, she also began to strive for a foothold. Fortunately, she had studied abroad in Toronto before, so her English was not bad. She could But she just had the basic knowledge. She knew that she had a lot to learn, so with Meng Shichuan''s help, she chose to have further studies. She was still aw major. Shu Tian took care of Shu Xiao while studying. asionally, Meng Shichuan came over on weekends. She had to serve the man. When she had time, she would also do part-time jobs. She was too busy to think about everything that had happened. After a year and a half of study, Shu Tian mastered those words that were unfamiliar to her and had a deeper understanding of thew of this country. After obtaining the legal qualification certificate, she entered a good local legal institution to intern. Although the British here were prejudiced against Asian, Shu Tian held on to herself. She did the daily chores, including serving water, cleaning up. Gradually she could ept some cases. She proved with her own actions that she was not good-for-nothing. Shu Tian stayed in this office for two years. She changed from an intern to an employee, from a junior employee to a topwyer. She won many cases and helped many people. No matter how thorny the case was, she never gave up. She was recognized by her colleagues and her sry was raised. But Shu Tian offered to resign. Her superior was a tall white man who was nearly 1.9 meters tall. When he spoke, he had a lot of body gestures. He was bad-tempered, but he was sincere to talented people. "Suran, you did a good job. I don''t know why you leave. If it''s about sry, we can talk about it." Shu Tian shook her head with a smile and handed over her resignation. "Ken, I''ve figured it out. I have my own n. I hope you can understand." Ken turned around and looked at the blinds behind him. He put his hands behind his head and scratched his hair irritably. "Why do you have to go? I admire your talent and hope you can stay." "I know. I admire you too, but I have my own career n. I''m sorry I can''t agree to you, but I hope we will have other cooperation." Shu Tian gave a t refusal. In the past two years, she had also saved some money. Although it was not much, it was enough for her to keep her subsistence for this period of time. Now she had to pursue her real dream. After more than three years in Ennd, it was time for some changes. Ken failed to keep her. On the day she left, this tall, white man hugged her at the door of thew firm. "I hope you have a good development. I sincerely wish you well." Shu Tian smiled and hugged him back. "Thank you." Just then, a soft voice suddenly came from behind, "Mom, mom..." Shu Tian was slightly shocked and looked over. She saw a little boy with a furry ck hat tottering towards her unsteadily. He was wearing a light blue shirt, a pair of khaki pants, and the shoes on his feet were a joint limited edition of a luxury brand. He was cute and handsome. Shu Tian felt warm suddenly. She squatted down and caught the little boy. "Don''t run. Or you will fall." After working for so long, Shu Tian had never brought the child to thew firm. Ken looked at the boy in a daze. "This is?" Shu Tian took the boy''s hand and stood up. "He is my son, Shu Xiao." "Shu Xiao?" The foreigner''s pronunciation sounded a little awkward and cute. He bent down and said, "Hello, Shu Xiao." The little boy also greeted him in English with a smile. He was so cute that people couldn''t take their eyes off him. Meng Shichuan was upset to see this foreign man hug her, so he put Shu Xiao out to let Shu Tian get in the car quickly. To his surprise, she started chatting. The man took off his sunsses and threw them on the passenger seat. He opened the door and walked over slowly, speaking with palpable resentment. "Do you still want to chat?" Shu Tian nced sideways at him, but was shocked when he saw what he was wearing today. He had always been a meticulous suit. Today, he was only wearing a shirt, not wearing a tie. Two buttons were unbuttoned, revealing his sexy corbone. The hem of his shirt was stuffed into his trousers. His legs seemed stronger under the suit. Where did he go to have fun in this suit? Shu Tian was a little surprised. Meng Shichuan caught the look in her eyes and raised his hand to fiddle with her hair. "I came out after taking a shower when I came back from a business trip." The implication was that he had no time to clean himself up. Shu Tian looked at his unkempt hair. It was a little messy and sexy. She nodded and said, "Thank you for picking me up." "If you feel embarrassed, just get in the car. I''ve been waiting for a long time." As he spoke, he looked at Ken beside him. Although he didn''t know how to speak, he could feel his unfriendly attitude. Ken quickly understood and gave a bright smile, "Bro, you''re too possessive!" Meng Shichuan didn''t care how others looked at him at all. His eyes narrowed, and he reached out to take Shu Tian''s shoulder. When Ken hugged her just now, he saw it clearly in the car and was unhappy. Usually, she would be overreacted if being touched by him, but now she did not resist at all after being hugged by an outsider. Shu Tian struggled but did not break free. She could not show all her emotions in front of outsiders. She could only force a smile and introduce him, "My boss, Ken." Fortunately, he was not crazy. He looked at Ken gentlemanly and said, "Thank you for taking care of her at work." Ken waved his hand and replied politely, "My pleasure. She is very outstanding." The atmosphere was a little awkward. Shu Tian was about to freeze. She touched the little boy''s head and turned to look at the man beside her angrily. "Shall we go?" Of course, Meng Shichuan couldn''t wait to let go of her and walked straight to the car. Shu Tian looked at the man''s back and said helplessly to Ken, "He''s like this. Don''t take it t o your heart." "It''s okay. I can see that he cares about you very much." Ken waved his hand and said, "Suran, I had a good time with you. Goodbye." "Goodbye." Shu Tian held the little boy''s hand and followed Meng Shichuan. She wanted to sit in the back with the child, but just as she stepped forward, she heard the man''s calm voiceing from the front, "Sit next to me." Chapter 292 Chapter 292 "But the baby..." Shu Tian was interrupted before she could finish her sentence, "There''s a child seat." In this case, she could not insist anymore. After all, he came to pick her up as soon as he got off the ne, so she should follow his wishes. After giving her baby a few instructions, she got into the passenger seat. Seeing this, Shu Xiao pouted sullenly, "I hate uncle! You always snatches mommy from me! Mommy is mine!" The man nced at the little boy in the rearview mirror and said, "Without me, you won''t exist." Shu Tian fastened her seatbelt and was amused by their bickering. At this moment, she felt neither the adult was mature nor the child was innocent. Moreover, she found the expression of Meng Shichuan was serious... Shu Tian sighed and stabbed at his waist, whispered, "He''s a child. Can you stop bickering with him?" Before he could answer, the little boy echoed, "That''s right. Uncle, how can you bicker with me? You''re This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . much older than me. You can''t bully me." "Do I bully you?" Meng Shichuan muttered, "You''re an ingrate." Then, Shu Tian turned around to scold Shu Xiao, "Don''t speak to uncle in this way." Meng Shichuan cared about Shu Xiao very much. The first year she came here, she didn''t have much ie meet the child''s material needs at all. Therefore, Meng Shichuan almost provided Shu Xiao with everything he needed and wanted. What''s more, all the things were of best quality. In addition to asking for Shu Tian''s help with his housework, he seldom asked for anything else. During the past three years in Ennd, they keep a proper distance away from each other. Shu Tian was grateful for his care and hoped that Shu Xiao would be grateful too. Shu Xiao was scolded so that he turned his head silently towards the window. From this angle, he looked extremely simr to the man in her memory. Blood bond was magical. Though they had never lived together, they shared something simr, which seemed to be imprinted on their bodies. A trace of depression shed across Shu Tian''s eyes. She would still think of that man because of Shu Xiao. But the frequency was gradually reduced, the wound was almost healed, and the memory was slowly fading. For more than three years, she had moved on. She stopped herself from recalling and looked out street view outside the window. [...] When getting back home, Shu Xiao dived into his room to enjoy his toy time. He was immersed himself in ying with various kinds of toy cars bought by Meng Shichuan. These were all limited edition, but Meng Shichuan was never mean with money. Shu Tian would not say anything, though she felt it expensive. She poured a ss of water and said, "I know you care about Shu Xiao, but you don''t have to buy too many toys for him. Toys are just for fun. Don''t waste money." "I don''t care." He grinded the coffee beans. Shu Tian knew that he didn''t care. He was an outstanding investor with a fortune worth thouands of billion dors. But... She put down the ss and said in a serious tone, "I can''t live with your help for the rest of my life. If you spoil him now, I''m afraid that he can''t be used to the life when he has to be independent. " There was a principle that, it would be easy to enjoy a life of luxury if you used to be poor, but difficult to endure a life of poverty if you used to be rich. Hearing this, Meng Shichuan suddenly paused. He clutched Shu Tian and pressed her against the desk, leaning his waist against herps and putting his arms on both sides of her body. Shu Tian looked at him in panic, trying to push him away. "You, put me down!" But she was locked and couldn''t move at all. Meanwhile, she had to stay still to avoid touching him. "Do you n to distance yourself from me?" His voices was oozing with anger and tease, which made her ufortable. Shu Tian knew he had misunderstood and quickly exined, "That''s not what I meant. I just want to live my life by myself, instead of always being dependent on you. Otherwise, I will make me feel myself useless." "How do you interpret ''use''?" Meng Shichuan squinted at her. "Will I be useless when you are independent?" Shu Tian''s eyes widened in shock. "That''s not what I meant..." "Then what do you mean?" "I''ve nned to tell you after resigning." She took a breath and tried to calm herself down. "I''ve been working in aw firm for more than two years and dealt with a lot of difficult work. With these experience, I think I have the ability to work alone, so I decide to start aw firm by myself." Looking at his sullen expression, she tried to make herself clear. I know it may not be easy. But I have my ns and ideas. It''s not a whim nor a fantasy. The reason why I''ve worked so hard in the past three years is that I want to be able to be self-reliance one day. I know you''ve helped me a lot, especially for the baby. I may not be able to pay you off for the rest of my life, but I won''t burn the bridge. You should trust me." Herst sentence calmed Meng Shichuan down very well. He rarely exposed his true feelings, but when he was facing Shu Tian, he had never disguised himself. "What were you thinking of in the car just now?" He suddenly changed the topic. Shu Tian could not react at once and asked, "What?" "On the way back, you were depressed. What were you thinking about?" With his reminding, Shu Tian recalled that she had thought of the man in J City for a few seconds. At that time, she looked at the window to avoid being noticed. But obviously, she failed. He was an acute observer of her emotions. Shu Tian lowered her head in guilt. "Nothing." Her reaction had told him the answer. Finding that her breathing was uneven, Meng Shichuan secretly fixed his eyes on her well-curvy breasts. Chapter 293 Chapter 293 He swallowed hard and moved his eyes away before he lost control. Shu Tian could feel his hot breath on her neck as he whispered in her ear with deep emotions in his eyes, "Don''t tell me you think I was only being kind when I looked after you during the past three years." Shu Tian blushed crimson and said in a breathy voice, "I think you were simply helping me." "I was helping you," the man agreed. For the first time, he allowed his eyes to be colored with palpable possessiveness. He paused and added, "But that''s not all." Shu Tian waspletely lost for words and didn''t know where she should look. They were so close that all she could see was the man''s perfect face. He still had a brush cut as he did three years ago. It was a normal haircut but he looked wild and irrepressible with it. Shu Tian was always aware of his extraordinariness. He had this natural grace that made all the Belonging to N?velDrama.Org. women in the upper-crust circle pine away for him. He was wealthy, powerful, and also good-looking. No woman would not fall for him. It was just that Shu Tian had met him in such an abnormal way that she forgot the reality. It didn''t make sense that a man like him had devoted so much to her in the past three years just because he was kind. "I''m a businessman and I''m always calcting what''s the best for me. I did that three years ago and I''m still doing it now," he said with a sly smile, "I make quick money sometimes but I also see the bigger picture. It''s been more than three years, Shu Tian. You know how I''ve been treating you. I don''t want any return from you but you can''t have feelings for any man but me." He''d never expressed his emotions so frankly. Shu Tian''s mind was reeling. She''d been vaguely knowing that she was a bit different to him but when faced with his in confession, she was at a loss. Now that he put everything on the table, he must be prepared for what would happen next. He was like a patient predator who approached themb meticulously and swallow it whole when it was off guard. He bent his arms more on either side of the woman to envelope her in his mint-scented smell and asked, "Do you hear me?" He pressed her to reply. Shu Tian felt a bit winded and her heartbeat went all haywire. "Meng Shichuan, please don''t do this¡­" Her eyshes fluttered uneasily. "I¡­ I never have feelings above gratitude for you¡­" "Really?" He asked with a yful smile, "But you need to give it try before you know for sure, don''t you?" "But I..." Shu Tian was about to refute when the man suddenly dipped his head and kissed her. He''d juste from outside and his lips were still cool. It was a featherlight kiss on the corner of her lips. He didn''t go further and was intently observing her reaction. Shu Tian was caught unawares and her mind went all nk with a boom. She was frozen and before she reacted, the man drew away from her. "Do you feel disgusted when I kiss you?" Shu Tian clenched her fists. His voice rang in her head. Disgusted? Maybe she was not. She was just angry that he kissed her out of the blue. She didn''t feel disgusted, which unsettled her more. Why did she feel this way? Had the three years made them this intimate? Meng Shichuan dissected her expression with amusement. She looked like a startled little deer with those watery eyes tinged with fluster, nervousness, confusion, and fear. The man''s smile broadened. "See? Don''t arbitrarily define your feelings for me. Humans are Seeing that she kept her head down, Meng Shichuan tilted her chin up and forced her to look at him. "You don''t have to be afraid. I won''t force you to make any choice. I just want you to give me a chance to take care of you and Shu Xiao. ept me. Don''t push me away. Just let the chips fall where they may." The man stood tall and straight like a tree. "Even not for yourself, you should think for Shu Xiao. He needs someone to make him feel safe when he grows up." Shu Tian calmed down because of the mention of Shu Xiao. Shu Xiao was already three years old, still a boy but old enough to start thinking. He would go to the kindergarten in the middle of the year and Shu Tian was worried that he might want thepany of his father when he saw all the kids in the kindergartens have fathers. She thought he would. Shu Xiao would stare at kids who had their parents by their sides in the amusement park. She could give him everything she had but could never y the role of father for him. It was an undeniable fact that Shu Xiao liked Meng Shichuan very much. It was partly because Meng Shichuan was good to him. Most importantly, he admired him as an adult and powerful man. It had nothing to do with age. It was an instinct. "You know exactly what Shu Xiao needs, so stop pushing me away and think about it, okay?" He hadn''t expected anything from her at the very beginning and just had an inkling that this woman was special to him although he couldn''t name what made her special. Three years had passed and his feelings for her only got intensified. As she grew more and more morous as a mature woman, he felt it harder and harder to resist his desire for her. "Meng Shichuan, I can''t reciprocate your feelings, so don''t be so good to me," Shu Tian said wistfully with a frown. Any other woman would seize the opportunity immediately but Shu Tian couldn''t do that. She didn''t hate to grow close with him but it was not out of love. She had to suppress whatever subtle feelings she felt for him. "I''m a divorced woman with a kid. You can find someone better." The man furrowed his brows due to her self-deprecating words. "I''ve never cared about what others think of me in my whole life. I know what I want. You shouldn''t be bothered by that either. Just treat me as a man." Shu Tian leveled a stare at the man''s fiercely stunning face. It was beyond her wildest imagination that the man who had pointed a gun at her three years ago would profess his love to her one day. What was more unimaginable was that she found herself lost in the current situation. Meng Shichuan fought back his agitation and stepped back to make her feel at ease. "I won''t push you. Take your time to consider my words. I''ll wait for you no matter how long it takes." Chapter 294 Chapter 294 It had been more than three years since Li Han left the legal profession. In the past three years, this man had never had removed from the professionpletely as he promised when he left. The HY Law Office that they founded together waspletely left to Ji Chuanyi . He didn''t ask anything about it. He wanted to get out of itpletely but Ji Chuanyi didn''t agree in view of their rtionship. Ji Chuanyi threatened to break with him so he didn''t withdraw from it. At the end of each year, Ji Chuanyi would transfer arge amount of bonus to Li Han''s ount regardless of his willingness. But Li Han never used the money. Over the years, he had been to many ces, most of which were underdeveloped and barren. He had used his savings for charity or to invest in the local area. He didn''t want to get anything, but everyone''s benefits were concerned in the business society. Therefore, he made great achievements unintentionally. Ultimate charity could achieve a win-win situation and was an investment. Perhaps this man was born to be a businessman. In the past few years, he had be outstanding in charity and investment circles. In April this year, he went to Cape Town, South Africa''s secondrgest city. He went to deal with the business but he just showed up and then left it to his subordinates. He went to the intersection of South Antic and the Indian Ocean-Cape of Good Hope. There were the purest blue sky, white clouds, and oceans here. Winds and waves raged the intersection of the Antic and the Indian Ocean. The sea collided with each other and caused waves on the shore, beautiful, b, and breath-taking, and spectacr. He stood far away from the crowd and looked out from above. Apart from the sea and sky merging, there were also tropical animals such as baboons and stags that appeared from time to time. The sound of wind and surging waves came to his ears. The man''s hair was much longer than before, and it blocked most of his face after being flown by the wind. The ck sunsses were mped against the straight bridge of his nose, and his slightly protruding nasal bone was indescribably sexy. Even if his face couldn''t be seen clearly, his thin lips and jaw curve were attractive enough. It was the kind of abstinence that made people want to go up and tear open the buttons of his shirt to probe his charm further. Just as Li Han forgot everything and immersed himself in the beautiful scenery in front of him, the private phone in his pocket suddenly rang. Over the years, he had always kept a clear distinction between public and private interests. Apart from working hours, he had almost never kept his work phone on him, and there were not many people who could call his private phone. He lowered his eyes and reached out to take out his phone. It was an unfamiliar but not strange domestic number. He knit his thick brows slightly and hung up the phone without thinking. He was about to put the phone back when the urgent ringtone rang repeatedly, forcing him to answer it. The man frowned more deeply. He pressed the answer button, put the phone beside his ear, and said in an unfriendly tone, "I told you not to contact me again." "I know! I know you... You don''t want me to call you, but I really have no choice." The woman''s soft voice came from the other end of the phone. She said it with grievance and sobs. But Li Han didn''t care. She had nothing to do with him. He didn''t know how to be kind to her because he didn''t care about her at all. N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content. Realizing that he was about to hang up, the woman said hurriedly, "You can ignore me, but don''t you care about the two elders at home? Your grandmother had a heart attack today, and she was just sent to Ling''s Hospital. I was afraid something would happen to her so I call you." The man was hesitant whether to hang up or not. Ever since Shu Tian''s ident, his family had been unsatisfied with him. They kept persuading him to go back to thepany and forcing him to ept the fact that Shu Tian was dead. Over time, he also alienated himself from his family. But after all, they were rtives, and Li Han was still very filial. Hearing what she said, he was nervous, "What did you say?" "Your grandma, your grandma is sick. She has acute myocarditis and is in the emergency room now!" After he heard this, he was not in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery in front of him instantly. He turned around and walked out quickly. "Take care of my grandmother. Let me know once anything happens. You can contact a man named Ling Zejun, and he will think of a way. I will take thetest flight home." [...] The next early morning, the passenger ne from Cape Town to J Citynded steadily on the tarmac. When he walked out of the airport gate through the VIP corridor, a car was already waiting outside. Seeing himing down, the driver immediately opened the back door and greeted him respectfully, "Mr. Li, please get in the car." The man was indifferent and bent into the car. The car rushed toward the Ling''s Hospital at a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour. He had been fatigued and worried along the way, so now he looked more anxious. After a two-hour drive, they finally arrived at the entrance of the hospital. He took the elevator from the underground parking lot and saw the woman waiting in the corridor as soon as he got out of the elevator. She was in a red gauze dress with long wavy hair down to her waist and fresh light makeup on her face, which was a strong contrast to the busy medical staff and patients behind her. She was beautiful but was out-of-ord with the time and asion. Li Han looked away. He was expressionless as if he had not seen her, and turned to walk towards the ward. The woman was still in high heels, and he was walking so fast that she had to trot after him and her shoes made some sounds. "You, you don''t have to worry. Your grandmother''s condition is stable now. The operation has just been face full of ttery and ostentation. The man in front of her did not respond, not even looking at her. The woman bit her lips secretly. What could she do? Although she had resentment in her heart, she could not show it. This man had been not interested in her, so she could only please him humbly. But so what? He had the right to be arrogant, so she was willing to be treated like this. Li Han walked quickly into the ward. As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw Liu Yufang sitting next to the bed, and Li Qiu, who was in sportswear, standing beside her. He paused for a second, then walked in, trying to hide the stiffness and unnaturalness in his tone. "Hi, Mom." After greeting his mother, he looked at Li Qiu and called, "Qiu." "Brother." Li Qiu was very good. As a freshman, she was still green. It was obvious that Li Han was strange to her. She had only seen Li Han a few times. When she was a child, she had seen him rtively more frequently. When she grew up, she had only seen him once or twice a year. She mostly learned about her brother from Liu Yufang. She knew that Li Han was very capable and was very good at making money. As for her brother''s character and preferences, she did not understand at all. She always felt that he was very grave, so she didn''t dare to speak much to him. Chapter 295 Chapter 295 "I heard from Zirou that you were on a business trip in South Africa. Your grandmother''s illness was quite sudden this time, which made youe here from so far..." Liu Yufang thought she was being "concerned" about Li Han, but she didn''t know how awkward these words sounded. Li Han interrupted directly. "It''s okay. Where''s grandpa?" "At home. He was scared when it happened. I just told him that your grandma was fine. He can''t help us at his age and should be taken care of." "Well." Li Han didn''t say anything else and looked at the old madam on the bed in silence. He felt very guilty, especially when he thought of the conflicts and quarrels rted to Shu Tian. Although he knew that he had done nothing wrong, he could not escape the condemnation from himself. The atmosphere in the ward was a little depressing. Just then, Ling Junze came over and called him out. At the entrance of the hospital''s safe passage, Li Han lit a cigarette and fiercely took a drag. He leaned against the wall behind him, looked up and slowly spat it out a few secondster. Ling Junze nced at him. "Didn''t you refrain from it?" "I''m upset now, just take one." "You came back overnight, didn''t you?" Ling Junze look at the time, then at his obviously exhausted face, he sighed helplessly and worriedly,forting him. "Acute Myocarditis. It is not particrly serious and is amon disease in the elderly. She needs to take long-term medicine and have a good rest to heal. After all, heart is one of the most important organs. However, at present, it is not life- threatening. You don''t have to worry too much. Scientific treatment can deal with it." The man still looked up at a certain ce on the wall and smoked quietly. "Okay." Seeing him like this, Ling Junze couldn''t help but frown and nag, "Have you taken the medicine I made for you?" "Yes." He lowered his head and threw the cigarette ash into the trash can beside him, answering perfunctorily. In fact, he even didn''t take it with him. "Have you really taken it?" Ling Junze obviously didn''t believe it and tried her best to persuade him. "You shoulde to me for aprehensive physical examination recently. I''ll check your health, seeing what''s wrong with you. In case you really get sick and regret it..." "What''s wrong with me?" He raised his eyebrows. His tone was yful, but his eyes were calm. "I need some sex. Can you help me?" "..." The sudden dirty words choked Ling Junze. He kicked him angrily." Then you go to the urology department! A cigarette quickly burned close to his fingertips. After waving it out, he patted Ling Junze on the shoulder and said, "I''m leaving." Then he walked away, but he didn''t expect to see a red-haired woman standing on one side as soon as he walked out of the safe passage. It seemed that she didn''t expect him toe over immediately, a sh of panic shed through the woman''s eyes. "I, I..." The man lowered his head and pulled the corners of his lips. Instead of asking her to get out like before, he said, "Come with me." The woman was in a nk for a moment. The next second, she was overjoyed. Could it be that Li Han was moved by her sending his grandma to the hospital? With such an illusion, she went to the top floor with him. Ling''s Hospital had a good environment. And even the rooftop was very clean. "Huang Zirou, Miss Huang." Li Han stood inside the railing of the rooftop, the wind was stirring. "I don''t know you have the habit of eavesdropping besides stalking." The woman stood three steps away from him, her face a little embarrassed. "I didn''t mean to. I just happened to pass by and didn''t stand there for long." Huang Zirou would never admit that she was eavesdropping on purpose, but she was very happy, especially when she knew that Li Han had never been close to a woman in all these years. He didn''t like her but also didn''t like other women. That was enough. "Did I not make myself clearst time, or were you too thick-skinned?" The man put his hands into his trouser pockets. He was standing not far away, but it was hard to see the emotion in his eyes. This man was dangerous but charming. Huang Zirou was a woman after all and couldn''t bear to be embarrassed by his words. "Li Han, I just sent grandma over with good intentions. Why are you so prejudiced against me?" "No." The man attacked her without leaving any hesitation. "I don''t even have any ideas about you, not mentioning prejudice." Seeing that his character became strange after being alone, his parents had arranged blind dates for him at the beginning of this year. And they somehow found her. Li Han was tricked into meeting her, thinking that he would not have more contact with her after that. But he did not expect Huang Zirou to pester him, coupling with the fact that his parents liked her so much, he couldn''t get rid of her. This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . The Huang family had good status in J City. Huang Zirou was only 26 years old and was quite outstanding. Her palm-sized face and delicate facial features made her naturally beautiful in an age full of faces under stic surgery. So there were a lot of people chasing after her, but she just wanna Li Han. Huang Zirou had never been embarrassed like that. If it were someone else, she would have been angry. But facing Li Han, she couldn''t be tough. Suppressing the anger in her heart, she changed to gentle. "Li Han, you''ve never known about me before. How do you know what kind of person I am? I like you very much and can do anything for you. Why don''t you give us a chance to try?" "Do anything for me?" Li Han repeated, as if he had heard a funny joke. There was an iprehensible emotion in his dark eyes. He raised his eyebrows and asked her, "Are you sure?" Somehow, Huang Zirou was a little flustered by his staring, but she still forced herself to reply, "Yes, anything!" "Then can you die for me?" The man''s deep and gloomy voice spread in the wind, not loud but clear. Huang Zirou''s heart did aplete somersault and she stood still. "What?" Li Han turned slightly and made her way between her and the roof railing. "This is the 17th floor now. Don''t you want a chance? I''ll give it to you now." Huang Zirou looked at the empty tform in front of her and the grey sky in the distance. She knew that he would not do anything to her, but when she met his threatening gaze, she felt flustered and weak. Her body stiffened from nervousness and her expression tensed up. She struggled for a long time to pull out a not-so-looking smile. "Li Han, you... What are you kidding me about?" He ordered her to jump from the skyscraper! Her words didn''t surprise Li Han. But his expression turned from an unruly smile to cold. "Don''t you dare?" Huang Zirou''s hands, which were hanging by her side, were clenched tightly. She stared at the man''s expression and wanted to see something on his face. She wanted to know whether he was trying to test her or he was serious? Unfortunately, he was hiding so well that she could not detect anything. Just as Huang Zirou was struggling in her heart, the man standing in front of her suddenly walked quickly towards her. His steps were so big that his shirt was pressed against his skin by the wind, leaving a few marks on it. The aura that he was born with made the entire topyer seem to be shrouded in a cold mist. She subconsciously began to retreat, her footsteps in a panic, until her back was against the concrete wall, she had to stop. "You, don''t..." Huang Zirou looked at him as if she had seen the executioner. She even closed her eyes in fear. "Ah!" The panicked screams did not stop the man''s steps. Li Han walked up to her, holding back the disgust, lifted her chin and pulled up her delicate face. "You said you liked me, but you were so scared to even when I even approached you. Do anything for me? You don''t even have the right to say that!" Huang Zirou almost did not dare to breathe. She opened her eyes tremblingly and met the man''s eyes full of crazy and pain. . Her heart was beating as if it was about to jump out. "What kind of request are you making? No one would really die after hearing that!" When he finished speaking, there was a moment of silence around them. Huang Zirou thought he was with nothing to say, but suddenly the man chuckled. "Why do you think that?" Yes, there used to be. The girl who smiled beautifully but made him heartbroken when crying, the girl who didn''t live for him but died for him, left him forever. Chapter 296 Chapter 296 With Meng Shichuan''s help, Shu Tian established her ownw firm in a bustling street in the capital of B Country, where many legal practitioners worked on. She knew the fiercepetition among her peers, but she was confident in herself. Working as an employee waspletely different from setting up own business. Shu Tian had invested almost all her savings into thew firm. Meng Shichuan knew she was short of money so he intended to help her, but Shu Tian rejected his financial support. "I can do it myself. I''ll ask you for help if I can''t." Seeing her resolute attitude, Meng Shichuan gave up. Shu Xiao attended a very good local nursery. Among groups of blonde-hair and blue-eyed babies, Shu Xiao, the little boy with ck hair and ck eyes quickly became the focus. Luckily, other kids had been well-cultivated, so no one discriminated against him. Shu Tian had been through a lot of pain and devoted herself to her career. Fortunately, herw firm survived the most difficult time. She put much effort into her work, wishing she could have 48 hours one day. However, the cases she had were all not major. The situation significantly improved after one day she received a debt dispute case from a bigpany. She devoted herself to thatwsuit, and she sessfully won it and built a reputation. After that, more and more bigpanies sought legal support from her. In the blink of an eye, another year and a half passed. In her fifth year in B Country, herw firm became the local leader. Her hair was getting shorter and shorter, and her clothes were getting iner. She had her first luxury handbag and first car... She was invited to various academic forums. Shu Tian, a woman who was always smartly dressed and had impable manners, was like the Iron Lady. She spent most of her time working, and she apanied Shu Xiao when she was free. As for Meng Shichuan, he did not do anything out of line after he bared his heart, but it was this that made Shu Tian feel more and more guilty. She seemed to have neglected that man. Therefore, Shu Tian set aside Christmas day to apany Xiao and Meng Shichuan. Early in the morning, she took Shu Xiao to the supermarket and bought a pile of ingredients. She intended to cook himself. "Xiao, do you want Chinese or western food?" Shu Tian looked at the ingredients in the fridge and hesitated. Shu Xiao answered without hesitation, "Chinese food!" "Chinese food..." Shu Tian scanned the condiments she had but thought those condiments were not enough for good Chinese dishes. She thought for a moment, and then suddenly a good idea came to her mind. "We can have hotpot!" "Hotpot?" Shu Xiao had never eaten hotpot, so this word was a little unfamiliar to him. Shu Tian exined with a smile, "Yes, hotpot. You haven''t tried it before, but I will make it for you today." "Good!" The little boy was thrilled and ran about. It was easy to prepare hotpot, but there were so many vegetables waiting to be washed. Besides, Shu Tian also prepared a roast turkey. She washed all the vegetables and meat, and stir-fried the hotpot additive. Then they waited for Meng Shichuan. At 7:30 pm, Meng Shichuan hurried to their duplex apartment. As soon as he entered the apartment, the aroma drifted away. ncing up at the steam above the boiling hotpot, he, a man who was always alone, was a little surprised. Shu Tian was walking out of the kitchen with a bowl and chopsticks. ncing at him, she waved. "Hey. Change your clothes ande over for dinner." It wasn''t the first time they had eaten together, but it was definitely the first time he felt he was at a Belonging to N?velDrama.Org. warm home. Meng Shichuan''s heart warmed up. He put down his briefcase, walked to the cloakroom, changed into his home clothes as quickly as possible, and walked back to the dining room. There were all kinds of fresh vegetables on the table, as well as beef and mutton. In the middle, there was a bottle of dry red wine, which was one of his collections. Shu Tian caught his gaze and shrugged awkwardly. "Sorry, I forgot to buy wine, so I opened one of yours." Of course, Meng Shichuan didn''t mind. He pulled out a chair and sat down. Looking at the boiling soup, he asked, "Why do we eat hotpot today?" "Xiao wants Chinese food but we don''t have enough condiments." Shu Tian sat down with Xiao and handed Meng Shichuan chopsticks. Then, she poured the red wine into the ss and raised it, "Merry Christmas." It was the first time Meng Shichuan had drunk with her. He dissolved into giggles, raising his ss, "Merry Christmas." They clinked sses. Shu Tian took a sip and then ced the ss on the table, putting the meat slices in the boiling soup. It was two-vor hotpot, one side was spicy and the other side was not spicy, which was prepared for Shu Xiao. The atmosphere was pleasant. Meng Shichuan spoke less during dinner, and Shu Tian who thought about her business, reported to him about her next n, "By the way, I n to move thepany to the adjoining street next month. We passed by there before. Do you remember?" "Yes." "My team is developing faster, and I need to recruit professionals, but the current office is too small. Although the rent will be a little expensive, I have to move." Shu Tian was a little worried because the rents were so high. "Your cases can be organized in different categories, and make different charges. No matter how long thepany is established, if you want to further develop it, you have moved to somewhere better." Meng Shichuan proposed pertinent suggestions, encouraging her. Shu Tian nodded. "Yes." The two of them chatted for a while. Shu Tian looked at Shu Xiao beside them. "Xiao, do you have any wishes for the new year?" She wanted to spend more time with him when she was free these days. Shu Xiao stuffed a big mouthful of meat into his mouth and tilted his head, thinking about it carefully. His big watery eyes blinked. His gaze wandered between Shu Tian and Meng Shichuan. Suddenly, he thought of something. He waved his chopsticks excitedly and replied, "Yes! I hope uncle and mom will be together forever!" Children said what they liked, but Xiao''s childish words meant a lot to Meng Shichuan. Shu Tian subconsciously looked at the man opposite her, meeting his burning gaze. The hot atmosphere made her blush. The little boy seemed to sense the strange atmosphere, looking up at his mom pitifully and asked, "Mom, will you leave uncle?" Chapter 297 Chapter 297 Shu Tian clenched her hands under the table as she could clearly feel someone looking at her. She turned away from Meng Shichuan''s overly handsome face and coaxed Shu Xiao unnaturally, "How could that be? We won''t be separated from uncle." "Great!" Shu Xiao pped his hands happily and then ate the meat on the te excitedly. Shu Tian felt a little uneasedter in the meal because of this incident and spoke absent-mindedly as she put most of her attention on the little baby. After they finally finished their meal, she went back to the restaurant to clean up the leftovers while Shu Xiao yed with his toys in his room. Meng Shichuan didn''t like strangers at home, which was simr to that man. Therefore, Shu Tian took the responsibility to clean up. She suddenly felt a warm hug when she had just put the dishes into the sink and was about to bend over to wash them. "Ah!" Shu Tian eximed in shock. She quickly turned around and found an extremely familiar face behind her. "You scared me to death!" Meng Shichuan nced at the bowls and chopsticks in the sink. Then he frowned when he lowered his head and moved closer. "A strong smell of hot pot." Shu Tian was speechless and reached out to push him. "I didn''t let you smell it at all." "Why did you think of preparing these today?" "Isn''t it Christmas? I would like to make something to eat." The man curled his lips and looked at her with a meaningful smile. "That''s it?" Shu Tian was shy of expressing her feelings and nodded shyly at his question. "I''ve been too busy at work recently to take care of the family. Now I finally have the time to..." "Shu Tian." Meng Shichuan interrupted her helplessly. "Can''t you just say that you want to make it up to me? Wouldn''t you feel tired saying so much to get to this point?" Shu Tian lowered her head a little and was so embarrassed. "Do you know that you would show all your emotions on your face when you''re not at work?" From the moment he entered the room and saw her being so active, Meng Shichuan knew almost everything. Shu Tian was annoyed by his words. "You don''t have to say it even though you knew." "I''m afraid you won''t admit it if I don''t say it." He retreated a little. "What do you think about what Shu Xiao said today?" Shu Tian didn''t know how to answer him when he suddenly mentioned Shu Xiao. "Children talk freely. He just likes you so much and doesn''t want to be separated from you." "They arepletely different things. He said he wanted you to be with me." Meng Shichuan was not going to hide it at all. "It''s been five years, Shu Tian. Even the child has mentioned it, are you really not going to be with me?" "What are you talking about..." Shu Tian felt hot and distracted. She struggled to take a small step away and stay away from him. "Enough. I''ve only said a few words but you want to run away. Where can you run?" Meng Shichuan finally let go of her. The lights were off in the kitchen with only light from the dining rooming in. It was neither very dark nor very bright and it was just a good atmosphere they to say something sincere. The man looked at her with some tenderness in his eyes. "This is the happiest Christmas I''ve ever had, thank you." Shu Tian whispered, "You don''t have to thank me." This man had long been more than just a benefactor to her. He had done too much for her, second only to Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua. She suddenly thought of Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua. It was new year''s day after today and she didn''t know how they were now... Over the years, Meng Shichuan had been helping her keep an eye on the two elders in the country. Fortunately, neither of them had any major physical problems. Meng Shichuan sensed the change in her expression. He remembered how she had been in a daze over the photos of her parents on the screen a few times before, "Feeling homesick?" It would be fine if he didn''t ask her. She couldn''t hold back her tears anymore when she heard his words. "Well, a little." One would think of his or her family far away especially on festive asions. She had no such feeling before she came to Ennd but now she deeply understood the meaning of this sentence after five years'' separation from her family. However, the most innocent and painful person was one''s closest rtive. asionally in the dead of night, Shu Tian would wonder how Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua would react if they knew that she was still alive and even had such a big child. They would definitely be happy since there was nothing more gratifying than knowing their daughter was alive. However, the more she thought about it, the more she felt guilty. Suddenly, her hand was covered by a dry palm. Shu Tian suddenly looked at him. He spoke slowly. "Do you want to go back and take a look at them?" Shu Tian paused. For the past five years, they had a tacit understanding that they would intentionally or unintentionally avoid the topic about their home country. They had never talked about anything else except Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua. Shu Tian "forgot" everything about that ce. Although she had those memories in her heart, she never took the initiative to mention anything. Although Meng Shichuan had never crossed the line with her, the people and things in J City were definitely a no-go area for this man. Now that he suddenly said this, Shu Tian was a little surprised and confused, "Why?" "Go back and take a look so that you can let go of that thought in your heart." The man meant something. Shu Tian could definitely understand. N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content. She tried to be calm. "There''s nothing I can''t let go of. I just miss my parents a little." Meng Shichuan stared at her and said. "Think about it carefully yourself." "Uncle, uncle! I''ve finished the puzzle. Come over and take a look. Don''t you say I can''t finish it? I won!" Shu Xiao opened the door and shouted in the direction of the restaurant. Meng Shichuan nced at her and turned to walk towards Shu Xiao''s bedroom, leaving Shu Tian standing there alone. "Go back or not?" "Forget it. I am not ready yet." Over the past five years, she intentionally or unintentionally avoided all domestic political news, trying not to see information about that person. She was afraid that she would lose control and wanted to know more. She was trapped in her feelings before and could only be free in this way. The wounds that had been left behind would not be healed as time passed by. They were just covered up and put on a strong shell. However, they would still be bloody once the shell was destroyed. It might not be a good thing for everyone if she went back now as it had been so long. Now that she had Shu Xiao, there was no need to create so many troubles. She could then bring Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua here when it was the appropriate time. Thinking of this, a man in Shu Tian''s memory suddenly came to her mind. What was he doing all these years? Did he have a family now? Did he have other women by his side? However, no matter what, they were already the most familiar strangers to each other. Chapter 298 Chapter 298 In J City, as in five years ago, men were wrapped in the suits of elites but were longing for gettingid. Women tied up their hair but were trying to look for fun. It was a materialistic world full of money as well as a sex city nurtured by desires. The streets in the early morning were as noisy as during the day. But the night hued the city with an intriguing vide. Today was the most special day for Li Han. It was the same day five years ago, the car that carried Shu Tian had an ident. He would uncontrobly be irritable whenever he thought of this. He didn''t want to do anything or say anything. All he wanted was to stay alone. Tonight, when he came back drunk, he was stopped by a ck Land Rover at the door of the vi. He stopped the car steadily without hitting the Land Rover. Ling Junze got out of the car angrily and opened the door of Li Han''s car. He immediately found the smell of alcohol inside the car. Angrily, Ling Junze grabbed Li Han''s cor and pulled him out, and said, "Drunk driving? Are you crazy?" Li Han couldn''t stand steadily and fell back. He leaned against the car and sounded colder because of the alcohol, "Get out of the way." "You will be so drunk on the same day every year. Do you really have to do this? It takes you a year to recover from the stomach hemorrhage, and now you drank so much again. Do you want to die?" Ling Junze was really angry and came here today to check on Li Han because Li Han would be like this every year. But he couldn''t believe that Li Han would drive back by himself when being drunk. But Li Han didn''t seem to care about how angry Ling Junze was and repeated coldly, "Get out of the way." Unexpectedly, Ling Junze punched Li Han in the face. He was angry but more disappointed actually when he hit Li Han. He couldn''t even remember thest time he hit someone, but at this moment, he really couldn''t help it. He couldn''t bear to see Li Han be so depressed like this. Hisfort,panionship, and persuasion were all useless to Li Han. Thest thing Ling Junze could ept was that Li Han was hurting himself. Being punched hard on the left cheek, Li Han looked angry. But he didn''t resist or fight back as if he couldn''t feel the pain and was just taking it. Then, Ling Junze stopped and carried Li Han to the side of the tree trunk and said, "Li Han, can you fucking be sober? Shu Tian is dead. No matter how you torture yourself, she can''te back. She can''t be alive again even if you die. Do you understand?" Ling Junze was shouting in anger. For the past five years, Shu Tian had been missing. Although her corpse was not found, the police announced that the car had been seriously damaged during the oil leak explosion. It was easy to guess what happened to a human during the ident. There was no way for her to get away with it. But Li Han didn''t believe it and would lose control whenever he heard any word rted to death. Shu Tian seemed to be a switch in his life, controlling everything about him. Five years was long enough for him to return to his normal life. Sure enough, Li Han was enraged by Ling Junze and reacted violently as he pushed Ling Junze away. "She''s not dead!" "If she is still alive, why there wasn''t any news about her in the past five years? Why did shee to you? How long are you going to keep lying to yourself?" Ling Junze shouted so excitedly that the blue veins on his neck could be seen. After Shu Tian''s ident, for Li Han''s feelings, no one had told him This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . the truth straightforwardly, but Ling Junze thought it was time to let Li Han face the reality because Li Han couldn''t get rid of the past. As time went by, Li Han had been increasingly convinced that Shu Tian was still alive. It waste at night, and a cold wind came, blowing directly into the deste, bone-chilling area of Li Han''s heart. Li Han leaned weakly against the trunk, looking dejected as if he was the king who lost his empire or a prisoner who just got caught. He said sadly, "She''s just disappointed in me and doesn''t want toe back to me again." He would rather believe that Shu Tian didn''t love him than ept the fact that she was dead. Ling Junze didn''t speak and only felt despair and depression. He let go of Li Han and sat down on the wetwn and was panting because of the fight just now, and his clean clothes were stained with mud. Ling Junze sounded hoarse, "It''s been five years, Han. You should learn to move on. Shu Tian''s body hasn''t been found yet, but she needs a ce to live. Last week, Fu Qingtong showed Lin Xi a cemetery. Shu Tian''s parents went to see it. We''ve been there too. When she was alive, she hoped that you could take her home, but her wish hadn''t be fufilled. If you really miss her, you should go and have a look." Li Han paused. For these years, Shu Changlei and Ye Lihua had not prepared a tombstone for Shu Tian because they were unwilling to believe that their daughter had passed away, but now they agreed... Li Han felt that his persistence had dissipated with the wind, leaving behind a withered reality. It was so ridiculous. It was as if someone was whispering in his ear, "Look, even Shu Tian''s parents have admitted it. What do you have to lie to yourself?" Ling Junze left after that and knew that Li Han had taken it seriously. But he couldn''t decide what would Li Han do. So, he left Li Han alone. Li Han sat on the grass in a daze. In the distance, a night patrolling security guard passed by. He thought Li Han was some tramp and attempted to use the shlight to drive Li Han away. When he came closer and saw it was Li Han, he immediately apologized respectfully and walked away. But from time to time, the guard looked back out of curiosity. It was cold at night, and Li Han was trembling slightly. His trousers were stained with grayish-yellow mud, which made him look lonely and dejected in the cold wind in the early morning. "It''s sote. What is such an extraordinary man doing alone in the grass?" The guard was confused. Then he shook his head and thought that maybe the rich had their troubles too. Li Han had been sitting there for a long time until the sky turned light and the smell of alcohol disappeared. The cemetery and Ling Junze''s words weighed heavily on his mind. He had been avoiding the truth for these years. No matter what others said, whether strangers or Shu Tian''s parents, he just didn''t believe that Shu Tian was dead. There was an inexplicable force that kept him going. He took out his private phone and there was only 5% battery left. He called his assistant, "Book me a ticket to London." It was 4 or 5 o''clock in the morning, and the assistant was obviously confused, "Mr. Li, you don''t have any scheduel to Ennd recently..." "Personal travel." He interrupted in a hoarse voice and continued, "Thestest flight. I have to leave as soon as possible." Hanging up, he thought of the crowd in London Eye, the sound of Big Ben piercing through the clouds and the flocks of white pigeons by the Thames. He needed to rx and heal the wounds in his heart. If he had to move on, he wanted to begin with getting close to the crowd. However, he did not expect that this trip would lead his life in another direction. Chapter 299 Chapter 299 The weather was a little gloomy on the streets of London, Ennd in October. The man was in a ck woolen coat with a light khaki turtleneck sweater inside. His straight thin woolen trousers revealed his beautiful ankles. He was in a pair of dark British leather shoes. His ck hair was unkempt, fluttering in the wind casually, and his impressive features stood out even N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content. among the foreigners on the street. Li Han went to this bustling but retro city during the rainy season. Instead of staying in a hotel, he chose a high-end homestay. Every morning, he got up to feed doves in the square, ate brunch like the locals, and sat in a coffee shop for a long time in the afternoon. At night, he liked to go to the beach for a breeze. He often carries a financial newspaper in his hand to show that he is not so lonely. He walks alone on the street, enjoying the state of not being disturbed. He stayed there for more than a week, and Pei Yu once called him, saying that Junze was furious after knowing Li Han would fly to London the next day and threatened that he would never care about Li Han again. Li Han listened calmly. He knew Ling Junze''s kindness to him but he could do nothing, so he could only ask Pei Yu tofort Ling Junze. Life was quiet and boring, and many times he even doubted whether he was really alive. Until two weekster, the assistant called him in one morning for urgent business, "Mr. Li, I just received an invitation. BIT Company in London is going to hold a FULLHOUSE party the night after tomorrow. It''s about the investmentst month. Because it involves charity and public welfare, this is also an opportunity to get to know more rtive people." BIT Company was a newly listed green technologypany. A month ago, thepany was in trouble because of financial problems. With Li Han''s investment, thepany managed to go public and its share price ballooned. However, the real reason why Li Han invested in it was that thepany''s projects were beneficial to charity. He hadn''t been phnthropic, but his state of mind had changed drastically over the years, so he was enthusiastic about charity and public welfare. When he heard what his assistant said, his first thought was to refuse, but he thought of the reason why he came to Ennd. After a few seconds of silence, he answered, "Okay, I''ll go." Hearing that he agreed so readily, the assistant was shocked and said, "You, you mean to attend this party, right?" "Yes." "Okay! I''ll send the invitation to your emailter, and I''ll get the person in charge of the party to contact you for the follow-up." After hanging up the phone, the man scooped up a spoonful of ground coffee and put it into the coffee machine. Not long after, there was a strong smell of coffee. He lowered his eyes, picked up the cup, and took a sip. It was so bitter that it gave people goosebumps, but he had loved it for five years. [...] At the same time, Shu Tian drove Shu Xiao to the kindergarten and rushed back to thepany. After more than a year of hard work, thew office was thriving and she didn''t need to worry about the business. She had more and more personal affairs and they were getting more and moreplicated. So she had to redistribute them. She hired an assistant and left the trivial matters to her. As soon as she entered the office and put down her bag, she heard the assistant remind her, "Suran, I received news today that BIT Company is going to hold a FULLHOUSE party the night after tomorrow." Shu Tian raised her eyebrows. She was no stranger to this Company. It was a green technology operated for eight years and was sessfully listedst month. In the eyes of outsiders, it was definitely a greatpany. However, thispany did not leave a good impression on Shu Tian. A period of time ago, a white man came to herw office and said that his left eye vision was almost lost because of a work injury. After he made thepensation request, BIT Company dyed it several times and did not deal with it. The person in charge did not make any statement, so he came to thew office to ask for their help. The white man was an official employee of BIT Company. Thepany was very powerful, so thewsuit was difficult. To solve it, Shu Tian had to see the person in charge of this matter. Unfortunately, she didn''t get any chance. She was bothered what to do, only to get such a news. She said, "It seems that I need to go there." "But as far as I know, I heard that a big shot will attend this party. It was said that he is the boss of who invested in BIT Company, so it doesn''t seem easy to enter without invitation," the assistant reminded her. Shu Tian thought for a moment and asked, "Did it invite any of our peers?" "Yes, B&R." B&R... Shu Tian smiled. She smiled helplessly and her assistant was a little surprised, "Suran, what''s the problem?" "B&R was the firstw firm where I interned. So what do you think the problem is?" She asked with a smile and was in a good mood. The assistant was confused for a moment, then smiled after a few seconds, "Do you mean you have acquaintances there?" "Yes, I am very familiar with one of them." The first person that Shu Tian thought of was Ken. Although she had quitted for almost two years, she still had contact with Ken. "It''s much easier for us to attend the party. We just need to be there on time." "Okay, then I''ll send someone to prepare the dress and collect the list of participants now." After work that day, Shu Tian contacted Ken, a tall British man. They met in a small bar, which was only a hundred square meters in area and had a half-high stage. There was a trio band on the stage, who often yed some jazz music. Shu Tian ordered whiskey with ice and some nuts. She sat at the bar and talked to Ken, "I need an invitation, but I can also sneak in with you." "It''s probably difficult to get an invitation because there are names on it. You can follow me," Ken readily agreed. Over the years, he had been very relieved about Shu Tian''s ways of doing things. "Sure, I''ll be at the door 20 minutes earlier. I''ll bring an assistant with me." "No problem. Do as you see fit." Ken took a big sip of the wine and said with a mixture of emotion and appreciation, "Suran, as a woman, you work so hard sometimes." He had seen Shu Tian do anything for a case. No matter how tiring or difficult it was, she was not afraid, just to give her client the most satisfactory answer. Shu Tian gently shook the light yellow liquid in the ss, smiling faintly. As if she had thought of something, she narrowed her eyes and said, "Because I know how eager those people are to win, how legitimate their demands are, and I am thest person who can speak for them before the trial." Ken was surprised as if he didn''t expect her to give him such a profound answer, but he had to admit that this answer was very touching. Shu Tian understood the feeling that no one listened to her or trusted her when she needed help, so she hoped that she could do her best to prevent the people from experiencing what she had experienced. Her thoughts drifted away and she lost herposure. She lowered her head and coughed. She said to Ken, "I''m going to the bathroom." She turned around and left her seat to walk towards the bathroom, where was at the end of a small corridor next to the stage. Although the bar was not big, there were a lot of people. When she turned around and entered thedies'' room, she suddenly caught sight of a tall figureing out of the men''s room next to her. She habitually walked in but suddenly stopped. A familiar figure shed in front of her eyes... Chapter 300 Chapter 300 Her back was facing the men''s room, and her palms were soon drenched in sweat. What a terrible sense of familiarity was this? Shu Tian thought she had forgotten, but now she realized that she could still remember all the details at a nce of that man. Even if she just vaguely saw his back, it was as if they had never parted in five years, and he was standing behind her one step away. Even if she insisted on leaving, yet as long as she looked back at him, she wouldn''t have the heart to walk away from him again. Right now, she hid behind the door. She heard the tap of the sink turn on and the sound of someone drawing paper to wipe hands. Then a dark shadow appeared outside the door and got closer... She saw his ck leather shoes. Looking up, she saw that he had typical ck hair from the east, ck eyes, and his face could not be made out clearly under the dim light, which made her relieved. It wasn''t Li Han! The feeling of suffocation finally eased. She then breathed a sigh of relief. And her mood swings exhausted her. She thought it was him. Fortunately, it wasn''t. She raised her hand to her chest, trying to calm down. Yet the next second, sheughed at herself. The world was so big. There were thousands of kilometers between Ennd and J City, across the ocean. How could he be here? How could he happen to be in the same bar and toilet? This was impossible. She was being paranoid. Yet she could not tell what she felt in her heart. Obviously, she was d that it was not him, but there was an inexplicable sadness mixed with it. She must have been sentimental due to the drink. It must be! [...] At the small round table on the far south side of the bar next to the wall, Li Han sat down with his back to the toilet. He picked up the ss on the table and drank it up in one gulp, regardless of how much the liquor burned his throat. It was his yearning for her that made him sick. Or else, how came he caught her smell in such a foreign country? He was being absurd. They said that he was crazy. See, it turned out that they were correct and he was not far bing a crazy. He then showed a bitter smile, and could not calm down for a long time. It seemed that he could no longer enjoy the beautiful and rxing music here. He then waved at a waiter not far away. When the waiter drew closer, he took out a gold card and swiped it at the POS. "Sir, please sign here." The waiter pointed to the ce where the signature was needed. He then picked up the pen and wrote down hisst name. [...] In the blink of an eye, two days had passed. Shu Tian and her assistant Lily drove to the entrance of the banquet together. They waited in the car for a while, and Ken and another woman also came. "This is my former colleague Suran and her assistance Lily," he briefly introduced them to his female Shu Tian shook hands with them politely, and then they all walked towards the security personnel at the door. The party was of high standards, and two staff members were checking the invitations at the door, one on the left and one right. Ken and his femalepanion both had invitation. With their eloquence and acting skills, they sessfully brought Shu Tian and her assistant in. The venue was veryrge, divided into two parts, indoor and outdoor. The outdoor scene was not fancy, mainly in white, green and gold, which looked very elegant. The waiters carried a tray with champagne and wine on it. There was always a drink that the guests liked. Shu Tian then picked up a ss of champagne and looked around. Shortly, she drew back her sight. It was a pity that she did not see the senior manager of the BIT Company. "Maybe he will show up after the party officially starts," Lilyforted her. Shu Tian then smiled, "I''m not in a hurry. We''ve got a whole night to wait anyway." Meanwhile, she didn''t just sit there. She began to socialize with the people here and publicized herw firm. It took her a lot of time. Ten percent of the people present were Chinese. Today, she wore a light pink fishtail dress with ayer ofce gauze on her chest. From the cor area to her waist, it was embroidered with a slightly darker pink rhinestone. The dress in the middle of her thighs was tightened, yet below was a loose pink gauze dress embroidered with three-dimensional petals for decoration,fortable but not too eye-catching in both style and color. Many foreigners noticed her and she was only smiling back. Having been standing for a long time, and London was still a little cold on October night, she was ready to go indoors to warm up a bit. There was a ss door connecting the room and outside. As soon as she and Lily reached the door, the inductive door suddenly opened. Then a group of men in suits came out. At this time, she heard whispers and exmations around her, because the atmosphere at the scene was instantly heightened by the appearance of these people. She then looked up and saw the director of the public rtions department of the BIT Company. He was over 1.8 meters tall, slender, wearing a pair of ck framed sses, and his facial features were slightly t. He was also Chinese. She recalled the name on the list. His name was Wang Wei. The excitement shed in her eyes. But she did not disturb him directly. Instead, she waited for him to finish greeting others and then reached out her hand. "Hello, Mr. Wang. I''ve heard a lot about you." At the first nce of her, he was surprised by her beauty, then soon smiled and greeted, "Hello, miss. You''re beautiful." Yet with a smile, she was thinking that he might feel that she was not beautiful or even looked hateful after a while. She then took out her business card and handed it over. It had her name and position on it, and he took it over very gentlemanly. "You don''t strike me as a legal worker." She spread out her hands and said nomittally, "Yes, but I have some questions to ask you. I wonder if it''s convenient for you. Can we talk in somewhere quieter?" He felt a little surprised. Although everyone coveted beauty, but... He looked around and was puzzled. "The environment here is so beautiful. Can''t you say it here?" She nodded and followed his gaze around the party, but soon she changed the subject. "It''s fine for me. But I''m afraid it''s inconvenient for you." "Inconvenient for me?" He became even more puzzled. "Why would I be..." "Mr. Wang, do you know Humphry Davy?" She interrupted him softly. As he heard that, the smile on his face froze. Davy was not a strange name to him and BIT Company. This man was a victim in the first major industrial ident of BIT Company. Because of various reasons and pressure, this matter had not been handled well. And now she mentioned this on such an asion... When he looked at her again, this time he didn''t see her as a beautiful woman, but an enemy. He then shouted in a low voice, "Are you threatening me?" "No." She answered without thinking, "I''m discussing it with you." Her tone became serious. Instead of admitting it was a threat, she now was more deterrent. Chapter 301 Chapter 301 All present were dignitaries. She bet that Wang Wei wouldn''t kick her out now, and he wouldn''t do such a thankless thing. As she thought, Wang Wei finally took her to the vip reception room on the second floor of the room. In addition to Wang Wei, there was also a senior vice president of BIT Company, a chinese man named Li Xingyan. Shu Tian walked over and reached out his right hand without any fear. "Hello, Mr. Li. I''m Shu Tian, the Li Xingyan took her hand and punned, "Long time,wyer shu." "Sorry to disturb everyone. If it''s a disappointment, I''ll apologize first." "I don''t remember sending an invitation to yourpany, do I?" Li Xingyan''s disdain and disdain for what she had done was written on her face and was revealed without concealment. Shu Tian knew that this man was doing it on purpose for her to see. She fiddled with her hair beside her ear. "Because I really can''t think of a good way to meet you two, the case has been very difficult to proceed, and the BIT Company has turned a blind eye to this matter. I can only do this." Li Xingyan snorted coldly and nced at her. Perhaps he didn''t expect that the person in charge of this matter, who had been pestering her so much, would be such a pretty girl. There was not much emphasis in her tone. "So what are you trying to say this time?" "I want to talk about thepensation for day." "Compensation is fine. We can negotiate no matter how much, but we have repeatedly stressed that the apology statement can be made in private and verbally. Other forms will not agree." Shu Tian was amused by his righteous attitude. "All of david''sints are legal. Then may I ask what the reason for your refusal is? Is it legally valid?" He thought that he could control everything in one sentence and do everything ording to his own ideas? Unexpectedly, the top management of a listedpany could be so rogue. Shu Tian suppressed the anger in his heart and "Talked" to him. Wang Wei and Li Xingyan stood firm, and Shu Tian did not intend to take a step back. Just as the three of them were deadlocked, the door of the living room could be pushed open from the outside again. With a "Whoosh," a tall figure with a frightening aura walked slowly inside as the light and shadow faded. Shu Tian couldn''t see who wasing with his back to the door, but Wang Wei and Li Xingyan could see it. Their expressions immediately changed, showing admiration and admiration. This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . A gust of wind blew past them, and the two of them stepped forward. Just as Shu Tian was about to turn around and find out, Li Xingyan had already taken the lead and said, "Mr. Li, you''re finally here!" Shu Tian was in a daze, standing rooted to the ground, unable to move at all. The words "Mr. Li" were all in his mind. The back of the dress was exposed to the air, and it was as hard as a stone wall. She pricked up her ears and listened carefully to the voice behind her. Soon, she caught a familiar male voice - "How''s the scene going?" The man''s voice was deep and maic, with a deep voice mixed with a hint of sexy hoarseness. She had heard it countless days and nights, so how could she not remember who it was? When he said the first word, he subconsciously recognized it. The blood on Shu Tian''s face disappeared in an instant. Her head was empty and she couldn''t remember anything. Her palm-sized face was frighteningly pale. She even staggered half a step. The speed of her heart beating wildly made her feel so flustered that she wanted to vomit. Why was he here?! Shu Tian did not listen to what the three of them said. There were not many people in the vip reception room. It was very abrupt for her to stand there with her back to everyone. She was soon discovered. Li Han looked at the slender figure. He had only nced at it lightly, but when his eyes touched the height and figure, he stopped in a daze. It was a very familiar feeling. Noticing his gaze, Li Xingyan and Wang Wei panicked. Li Han, as their investor, could never know such a scandal. They subconsciously wanted to cover it up." Mr. Li, it''s gettingte. Why don''t we go to the banquet venue now and have a word with you? Li Han didn''t respond. Instead, he stared at the woman''s back with his eyes burning. Even his assistant didn''t know what he was thinking. The air suddenly became very quiet. The more the man looked at it, the tighter his heart became. He had an urgent feeling of standing on the edge of the cliff. Shu Tian could feel two lines of sight burning in her back, burning her whole body. Just as she was about to end, she suddenly felt the people behind her moving and walking in her direction! Shu Tian hurriedly lowered her head and clenched her hands into fists. Her shoulders trembled slightly. Catching this, the man''s sharp eyes narrowed a little and he quickened his pace. Shu Tian lowered her head and ran away until the shiny ck men''s business shoes were in front of her. She knew that it was toote. She had nowhere to hide and had to be exposed. The moment their eyes met, it was as if they had been separated for a century. The scene in front of her changed and countless images of her being with him shed. The memories that she thought were gone became especially clear with the face in front of her. In a strange space, facing the man who used to sleep with him day and night, his head was thumped and he couldn''t think anything. White shirt, dark gray satin suit, no tie or tie between the cor. The v-neck style of fashion design, the hem of the shirt tucked into the waist of the pants, faintly felt the strength of the t abs, and the fitting suit jacket outlined the man''s broad shoulders. He did not seem to be old at all. There was not a trace of tension or fine lines on his face. His features were still so three-dimensional and deep, and his thin lips were slightly pursed in a noble and arrogant manner. He was far away from others and did not dare to look at him. The man with long legs stood in front of her, followed by a special assistant and seven or eight staff members. Five yearster, he was more mature and experienced. He did not need to restrain himself from pretending. Every movement upied people''s eyes. They met unexpectedly, both for him and for her. When Li Han saw the face in front of him, there was no peace in his heart at all. As calm as his face was controlled, so was the storm in his heart. In the past five years, the woman she had been thinking about day and night had appeared without any precaution. She was wearing a generous and decent dress, which was beautiful but unconventional. Her hair was cut short by her, and it really suited her. Her fair and tender skin was like goodnolin, with ayer of halo. Even the dazzling dress could not hide the slightest bit of her charm. The only difference was that the temperament that emanated from her bones was no longer the little girl who seemed to understand five years ago, but full of the propriety and indifference of a mature woman. Five yearster, he was tortured to death by her, but she lived well. Chapter 302 Chapter 302 Seeing that the momentum was not right, wang wei quickly walked to the two of them andughed. "Mr. Li, this is my friend from the legal profession, Suran, who was invited this time. He has been doing well in the circle for the past two years and has a little reputation." Li Han curled his lips, his dark eyes suppressing the waves. Only two people could understand what he asked her, "Oh? Your name is Suran?" Shu Tian''s breathing was in a mess. She had imagined what would happen if she met him again, but she did not expect it to be like this. The world was so big, how could they meet so coincidentally? But what else could she do? She could only force herself to pretend, "Yes." "Legal work?" Shu Tian''s heart tightened. "Yes." The man''s eyes fell on the woman''s pale little face. The smile on her thin lips looked like a gentleman''s job outside, but only Shu Tian could feel the full ridicule. "Thew here in ennd is different from that in china. Is miss sn still used to it?" Shu Tian knew what he wanted to ask. He was mocking her for disappearing for so many years. Her heart was torn open by his question. She suppressed the surge of personal feelings in her chest and said as if she were looking at a stranger she had just met, "This sentence should be more pertinent N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content. for my client." The atmosphere at the scene was very subtle and strange. The four of them had different thoughts. Wang Wei and Li Xingyan were afraid that the news of work-rted injuries would reach Li Han''s ears, while Shu Tian was at a loss after being shocked. Only the man''s deep eyes could not tell what he was thinking. He quietly turned his wrist and gently pulled the corner of his lips. "I never knew that there were chinesew firms in ennd." Shu Tian''s face was a little pale, and he tried his best to maintain hisposure. He was about to lose hisposure. "It''s normal for a busy person like Mr. Li not to know whether this circle is big or small." "Oh? It seems that miss Suran knows me very well." Li Han stared at the small mouth that kept opening and closing to annoy him. From the moment he entered the door, his heart was trembling. When he saw her appearance and heard her voice, his heart that had been wandering for five years finally settled down. Outsiders could not tell that his fingers were actually trembling slightly, but he was hiding it well. She was not dead, and she grew up well. She was more generous and charming than she was five years ago. After five years of searching, he finally found her. But what about her? When she saw him appear, there was no surprise or emotion in her watery eyes except for surprise and fear. There was no joy of seeing him again after a long separation. She called herself Mr. Li calmly, just like she did to strangers. Li hanxin frowned, angry and aggrieved. He wished he could ask her immediately why she had never looked for him in the past five years. Shu Tian could not resist the man''s burning gaze. He lowered his eyes slightly and suppressed the trembling in his voice. "I don''t know Mr. Li, but I know the BIT Company very well. I believe they are not unfamiliar with me. If Mr. Li is curious, you can ask." When Li Xingyan heard this, he secretlyined in his heart and quickly came out to smooth things over. "This is the first time we''ve met. There may be many opportunities for cooperation in the future. It''s gettingte. Why don''t we move to the banquet hall first..." Shu Tian''s eyes lit up. Seeing Li Xingyan''s attitude at this moment, she caught the key. She looked over and said, "Boss li, you haven''t replied when I was discussing it with you just now." The smile on Li Xingyan''s face became unnatural and he said perfunctorily, "There''s still time." "I''m afraid boss li won''t be able to take care of me when there are too many peopleter. Why don''t we talk now?" Shu Tian stood firm and said word by word. "Yourpany is a research and development few years. As an employee of thepany''s grassroots management position, even if he did note into contact with the core of thepany, he had to pay a lot. Now, his left eye was almost blind because of his work injury. The conditions and requirements are reasonable and legal. Should your Her voice was not loud, but full of strength. If she wasn''t still wearing her dress, she would have stood in court. Li Han looked at her and saw her five years ago. It was undeniable that she was more sophisticated and steady now, but the sense of justice that emanated from her bones had not changed. After hearing these words, Li Xingyan subconsciously looked at Li Han. Seeing that he had been staring at Shu Tian, he only muttered in his heart. He raised his hand and pushed the sses frame on his face. He was a little embarrassed. "Lawyer shu, aren''t you here today just for this?" He wanted Shu Tian to give him a step down, but unfortunately... "That''s right. I''m here today to find out what boss li is thinking." She had no intention of giving in at all. Anyway, it was clear that Li Xingyan was obviously afraid of Li Han. Why not? However, what shu tian did not expect was that before Li Xingyan could speak, the man standing in front of her spoke first. "So miss Suran didn''t have an invitation to the party. Did she sneak in through her own means?" The man raised his phoenix eyes slightly and saw through her little trick at a nce. Shu Tian didn''t expect him to say this all of a sudden. She frowned. Shouldn''t the end point be the day case? Her confusion did notst long, and soon Li Han said, "Even if you don''t think about yourself, you should think about the friend who brought you to the party, right?" One sentence nailed Shu Tian to the spot and he couldn''t say anything. He was threatening himself, naked and undisguised. She clenched her teeth secretly and tightened her fair fingers a little, emphasizing with some bravado, "When president li finishes replying, I''ll leave right away..." "Miss Suran, where do you think I am?" The man''s voice sank. "Luggage is here. Free market?" He had the ability to say anything that was neither up nor down. Speaking of verbal skills, ten of her were no match for Li Han, which she had known five years ago. "Since you have questions to ask, wait until the party is over. As the biggest investor in BIT Company, I can answer them for you personally." Li Han looked at the staff behind him. There seemed to be an ancient pool hidden in his dark eyes. He said so much for now. The two of them walked up to Shu Tian and stood on both sides. "Lady, please move." Shu Tian looked at them warily. "What do you mean?" "If you sneak in, I won''t let you go easily. If you don''t want to, you can call the police now." He looked at her in a rxed tone. This relief came from his certainty. He clearly saw that Shu Tian did not dare to call the police, so he asked her leisurely. As a legal worker, Shu Tian could not bear any records of viting thews and regtions. She had no choice but to obey passively. Just now, she was still standing on her own and pretending to force Li Xingyan and Wang Wei, but in an instant, this personpletely reversed the situation. Shu Tian smiled bitterly. Even though she was in a panic, she still pretended to be calm and nodded. "Okay, then I''ll wait for president li to finish his work." Chapter 303 Chapter 303 The party went well, but Li Han was not in the mood at all. He came here with a dispensable mentality, but he met Shu Tian unexpectedly from here. Although he pretended to be noble and arrogant in front of her, only he himself could clearly sense the nervousness and expectation in his heart. From the moment he saw her, he had been unable to control himself. He wanted to hold her in his arms like crazy, to tell her everything that had happened in the past five years. Those feelings that had been umted for five years seemed to have finally found an exit, and he wanted to rush out first. But he did not. He was stopped by her strange eyes, and by her fear from her body to her eyes. After This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. all, there were five years between them. These five years did not pass in the blink of an eye, nor did they not itch. There was a dull pain in the bottom of his heart. He was, and so was she. He could only ask someone to take her away, afraid that she would slip away without a sound, and even more afraid that he would not be able to control the emotions in his heart. Li Xingyan had always been by Li Han''s side, and the whole process was very careful. He had always wanted to find an opportunity to exin, but the truth was the truth. Shu Tian had just said it too bluntly, and he could not hide it. After the party, Li Han strode to the second floor. Li Xingyan gritted her teeth and followed him. "Mr. Li, I have something to tell you about the work-rted injury case." "No need." The man didn''t even look at him. "I''ll listen to her myself." With that, he disappeared at the corner of the stairs. Li Xingyan stood there in a daze. He was not a fool either. Naturally, he could see that the rtionship between Li Han andwyer shu was not simple. Otherwise, this man would never have gone to her right now. Wang wei saw that he was in a daze and followed him anxiously. "Boss li, what''s wrong?" "What''s wrong?" Li Xingyan spat angrily. "If the god of wealth is unhappy, let''s not have a good time!" ... Li Han, led by his assistant, walked to the door of a separate room on the second floor. From afar, he saw two men in ck standing outside. Seeing himing over, she nodded respectfully, "Mr. Li!" Li Han waved his hand to signal them not to speak. He looked at the shiny doorknob and felt as if a drum was beating in his heart. It shook his head a little. Push the door open, and you''ll see her as soon as you open it. At the thought of this, his heart could not calm down. He had not seen any storms in so many years, but now was the most nervous. He could not help but All the calmness and seriousness did not work for her. He was as impulsive and unreasonable as a young boy. Li Han took a deep breath. Finally, with a slight force in his hand, the doorknob twisted down with a click, but the door panel remained motionless. The man frowned. She was locked inside. The assistant immediately handed him the key to the room that had been prepared. "Mr. Li, the key is here." He raised his hand to take it. His face softened a little this time. The assistant could not help but squeeze a sweat beside him. Fortunately, he had said hello before he came up. Otherwise, how awkward would it be now? Seeing his boss locked outside the door by a woman, he didn''t even dare to think about that scene. The key was inserted and the door opened smoothly. Li Han walked in alone and closed the door behind him, isting everything from the outside world. Only the two of them were left. The man turned around and nced around the room. The huge space was unusually quiet. There was no one on the sofa, no one in the living room. He did not see the figure he had imagined, and his heart beat a little out of order. Over the years, he had countless dreams and hallucinations. He was really afraid that this was his dream. There was a separate room in the room, the bedroom. He walked over quickly and pushed the door open without hesitation. The lights were still on, and there was a small bulge under the white sheet. The man breathed a sigh of relief and walked over slowly. The light above her head was very bright, as if she was annoyed by the ring light. Half of her head was hidden in the quilt and only her forehead and nose were exposed. Her beautiful almond eyes were tightly closed at this time, and her long, thick eyshes were ced on her eyelids. It seemed that she was sleeping ufortably and trembled slightly. Li Han looked at the face that haunted him, and his eyes could not be moved. He bent over and sat by the bed, his big palm tentatively and carefully covering the soft side of his cheek. She was so real that he could see and touch the girl he had been thinking about for five years. No matter how restrained Li Han was, he could not control his mood of regaining what he had lost. He seemed to be possessed, with her in his eyes and heart. The emotion that could not be expressed in words filled his heart, leaving no gap. As if there was an inexplicable force pulling her, Li Han lowered her head and approached the woman''s smooth and plump forehead. Just as her thin lips were about to kiss, the phone in her pants suddenly vibrated. Buzz! Buzz! The soothing voice was enough to wake people up in the quiet room. Shu Tian seemed to hear it faintly. His beautiful eyebrows were twisted and he turned around. Li Han slowly walked out to the balcony with his cell phone. Afraid that she would freeze, the man did not forget to close the door behind the ss. It was Ling Junze. As soon as the call was connected, before he could speak, the person on the other end said hurriedly, "I just got off the operating table and you sent me a message. What do you mean? You found Shu Tian?" Li Han''s eyes fell on a corner of the banquet not far away. Towards the end, the waiter was tidying up everything that was arranged at the scene. His voice was tinged with the wet british temperature, but it was not difficult to detect the excitement in it. "Well, I found him." Ling Junze took a deep breath, which showed that his head was in a daze for a moment. Then he subconsciously began to think, "Did you really find it, or..." "Really." Li Han interrupted him like a child who had scored a hundred points and was anxious to share his excitement with others. "Junze, it''s either an illusion or a dream. It''s her. I talked to her and touched her face. I really found her." Ling junze held the phone''s five fingers tightly to the edge of the phone. He closed his eyes, held his breath for a few seconds, and spat out, "She... What''s wrong?" "Very well, better than five years ago. With her ownw firm, she came out more generous and moving. She did a good job. The ident didn''t leave a trace on her." Li Han suddenly remembered the reason why she had sneaked in today, and his lips curled up a little. "Even her personality is as stubborn and serious as before." Chapter 304 Chapter 304 "That''s good, that''s good." Ling Junze said it twice in a row, and the big stone hanging in his heart finally fell. He was afraid that Shu Tian would not live well all these years, so how guilty should li han be? He probably wouldn''t hesitate if Shu Tian stabbed him to death with a knife. Fortunately, everything went beyond expectations. "What are you going to do next?" After five years of reunion, Ling Junze subconsciously thought they would be together again. Unexpectedly, when he heard this, the man on the other end of the phone sank for half a minute before he said, "I don''t know." Ling Junze inexplicably felt choked and a little stunned. "What?" "She seems to be very resistant to me." He saw her performance tonight. It was not the way she wanted to sit down and talk to him, but the kind of panic she felt as if she was facing an enemy. Ling Junze frowned, stood up from the sofa, and paced around the room uneasily. Logically speaking, they used to be so close because they had to separate because of something urgent, and now they met again... Thinking of this, his mind suddenly stopped, and a sh of light shed in his mind. Yes, for Li Han, this reunion was worthy of gratitude, but for Shu Tian? If she had been alive for five years, why didn''t shee to him? Perhaps, she had no intention ofing back. Thinking of this, Ling Junze''s heart began to hang again. Five years was neither long nor short. It was enough to change a person''s feelings. The worst result was that Shu Tian had someone else. Ling Junze was shocked by this idea. He instinctively rejected it and refused to believe it. He was afraid that li han would think too much and aggravate the conflict between the two of them. Heforted him in a soft voice, "Don''t worry. You just met a lot of people who couldn''t make a clear sentence or two. Give her some time, and give yourself some time." "I know." The man smiled sadly. "What position do I have to force her now?" Jun ze could hear his sadness and helplessness, and he was speechless for a moment. He didn''t even know how tofort this disappointed man. "Ze, you don''t know how beautiful she is now. I want to see her in my dreams." As he spoke, a warm pain welled up in his eyes. The man raised his hand to press the corner of his brow, suppressing the moisture in his eyes. "All these years of my persistence, it''s not in vain." Ling Junze had witnessed with his own eyes how difficult and torturous he had been all these years. Now that he could have such a result, he could feel the feeling of having lost and regained. "Everything will be fine. As long as people are here, everything will be fine." As the two of them were talking, there was a sudden bang behind them. Li Han immediately turned around and looked for the sound. The woman was holding the hem of her dress in one hand and her chest in the other. The crystal photo frame on the bedside table beside her was knocked to the ground. She looked up in fear and crashed into her deep eyes. Through a transparent ss door, the collision of eyes increased, and Shu Tian''s first reaction was to run! She turned around and forgot to put on her shoes. Her fair and round toesnded on the ground. She ran towards the door in a hurry. Just as her fingers touched the doorknob, before she could hold it, a strong wind swept past her behind her. The next second, she was carried up! Yes, it was resistance. His head was down, his appetite was pressed against the man''s shoulder, and he was straight down. "Ah!" Shu Tian waspletely unprepared. She eximed and pounded the man''s back with her small hands. "Put me down, Li Han! Put me down!" The scene in front of her changed. She watched the man walk towards the bed step by step. A bad feeling arose in her heart and her legs kicked wildly. Li han held her body with one hand and was almost grabbed by her. His small body slid down a little. He was shocked and immediately threw her into the soft king-size bed. Shu Tian only felt her body bounce twice on the big bed, and her head was a little dizzy. Where she could not see, the hem of her skirt was raised, revealing arge area of white skin on her thighs, which made her dizzy. Just before she could regain herposure, a hot body suddenly pressed down from above her body. She knew who it was without opening her eyes. The strong smell of pine mixed with incense was as clear as carved into her bones. "Don''t touch me, don''t!" She struggled, kicked, and stared at him with her big wet eyes, looking at him like a gue. Li Han''s chest tightened from the piercing gaze. She probably knew that she didn''t want to get close to her, but when she really saw her struggle, the intimate scenes in the past were like sarcasm. He didn''t want to force her or do anything she didn''t want. Just as he was about to get up, he heard a sharp and frightened cry in his ear, "Li Han, you can''t touch me. I have a boyfriend. Don''t do this to me!" Boyfriend. The three words sessfully froze the man''s movements. He could ept whatever she said and was ready to be condemned and resented. But what did she just say? Did she find someone else abroad? Thinking of this possibility, thinking of how close she had been to another man for the past five years, Li Han felt as if thousands of ants had been gnawing at his flesh. Looking at her stubborn little face, heughed angrily. His long legs pressed down on her shaking calves, and his big palm easily sped her two thin wrists above her head. Hepletely subdued her and stared at her with a gloomy expression. "Shu Tian, can you say that again, hmm?" Shu tian was frightened and flustered by him. In the past five years, she had no boyfriend or even an ambiguous person. Meng Shichuan was an example, but they had never had anything innocent. But now that she saw his evil face, she suddenly didn''t want to exin anything. Why did he treat her so badly five years ago and bully her so righteously five yearster? She red at him, unaware that her cheeks were flushed with anger and she looked like a shy little girl under the light. "Mr. Li, please respect yourself!" "Ha," the man sneered, his dark eyes locked on her face, and his handsome face darkened. "You called my name just now, and now you''re calling boss li. Are you really forgetful, or are you trying to draw a line with me?" Shu Tian was subdued by him and could not move. The two of them were very considerate. Her breathing quickened and she collided with him crazily. "Since you know I have to draw a line, why do you do such a thing to liu?" Liu. He went upstairs looking forward to seeing her. He wanted to confirm her condition. He didn''t want to This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. expect her to understand the five years of yearning. He deserved it because he was wrong, but it became a lie in her mouth. Li Han waspletely hurt by these two words, and his heart seemed to have been gouged out. Blood gushed out, and his dark, obscure eyes rippled. "You said I... Did liu?" Chapter 305 Chapter 305 Shu Tian saw the injury in his eyes, but he was angry and extremely nervous. He didn''t care about anything else. "Why are you holding me down now? I said I have a boyfriend, but you didn''t hear me... Mmm!" Before he could finish speaking, his lips ached, and he brought down the pressure of the fire. Shu Tian''s hands were under control, and she was like a fish on a sticky board. There was no other way but to passively ept it. She could only keep shaking her head to avoid his kiss. "Let me go, let me go... Bastard!" The harder she struggled, the more Li Han wanted to twist her. At first, he just didn''t want to hear the hurtful words from her little mouth, but when he really kissed her, he couldn''t help but lose control. In the past five years, he had found another woman, and he had never thought of epting a new rtionship, but he was still a normal man, living a life of abstinence for five years. The dress had already fallen off arge part of her body in the twisting, and the edge was stuck in the middle of her chest. If it leaked a little more, it would be gone. Shu Tian did not even dare to move. She was really afraid that he would do something. Her body trembled like a sieve. However, apart from fear, the strange feeling in her body caused by his touch was the humiliation that she could not face. She knew exactly what was going on, and that was why she despised herself. Are you so hungry after five years, Shu Tian? Even when faced with this man''s forced kiss and touch, you still feel it? Bean-sized tears rolled down her cheeks, and her palm-sized face was filled with fear. "No, li han, please don''t do this..." "If you don''t want me to do this, then who do you want? Your so-called boyfriend?" Because of her words, he was extremely angry. Because of her approach, his body swelled up and hurt. But none of this wasparable to the tears falling from the corner of her eyes. Seeing her cry, how could Li Han insist on continuing? It was just a mouthful to relieve his anger. "Get up, you bastard!" Shu Tian sobbed, her eyes narrowed, and her eyshes were filled with glistening tears. Li Han looked at her and raised his hand to brush it away for her. His strength was out of control, and his eyelids were red. "I''m a bastard, you bastard alone." "No, not five years ago!" Her roar of breakdown, the wall of her heart that had been built in five years, was easily broken by a few words from him. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. The man''s eyes were dim, xia li, and his obsidian pupils were colored, but his heart ached. "Do you know what I was thinking when I saw you?" "I don''t know or want to know!" If she could, she would cover her ears now. Li Han, however, did not care about her resistance. She lowered her head and whispered in her ear, "I was thinking about the time when I changed your dress for you not long after we met. You stood in front of me like this too. Your skin was very white, and your corbone was beautiful..." "Stop it!" Shu Tian''s eyes were red. Recalling this again, she was embarrassed and couldn''t help but fall into it. Such mental torture made her unable to bear it. "I forgot everything in the past. Now it''s Suran in front of you, not Shu Tian!" The big palm holding her wrist suddenly exerted force. He kissed her again, punishing her for not remembering. Li Han was like a child who was extremely afraid of losing, trying to confirm her existence in this way. Five years, 1825 days, 43800 hours. He had been afraid of losing her and the uneasiness of losing her. He seemed determined, but his heart had long been empty. He did not know what security was. Only a kiss like this would ensure that she really existed. "How can you be so cruel? How can you leave me for five years..." He muttered in a low voice, his excited voice changing tone." When I found out that you were pregnant, my heart was dead. I regretted and regretted it, but I couldn''t me you for not telling me, tiantian. Do you know how much I suffered? Without you, everyone tried to persuade me to give up, but how could I have the right to? I lost you, so I had to find you back. If I couldn''t find you back, I would die with you..." He lowered his head and crossed his neck with hers. Soon, a warm liquid fell from his neck and pattered on her shoulder again and again. It was the tears that this man had not easily shed. Shu tian''s heart trembled. She had woken up and slept in this embrace countless days and nights. Such a generous and warm embrace always gave people many illusions, making her want to sink into it. "That child..." He said in a hoarse voice, but stopped halfway through, unable to continue. Just as Shu Tian was puzzled, the man suddenly moved his hands from her back to the hem of her blouse. With a little force, the zipper on the side of her dress was pulled open, and hisrge, slightly calloused palm reached in and rubbed her waist. Just as he was near her abdomen, Shu Tian woke up abruptly. She was like a cat that had been stepped on its tail. She stood up and resisted. The explosive force formed in an instant really broke the defenseless Li Han away. When her hands were free again, Shu Tian pulled the zipper back together in horror. At that time, shu xiao was pregnant and had a scar on her abdomen. It was not obvious, but she could definitely feel it. If he touched this scar, his iq would definitely be able to guess it. Only then will there be no return. Shu Tian didn''t know why she was like this. She just didn''t have the confidence to let him know about the existence of the child. She couldn''t figure out the current situation, nor did she know about his situation all these years. Until she confirmed it, she wouldn''t expose Shu Xiao and make a emotional bet with the child. The man''s face, which was about to soften, became stern again. He just remembered that the child wanted to touch her lower abdomen because there was a crystal of their love in that ce. But she dodged in fear and disgust. Li Han''s face darkened. Just as he was about to grab her wrist, the woman beneath him quickly rolled to another test on the bed. She quickly supported herself and stood up, hiding in the corner of the room. Her red eyes were fixed on him. "Li Han, don''t force me!" Li Han quan thought it was because she didn''t like to be touched by him that she had such an extreme reaction. His heart sank a little, but he still tried to restrain himself, afraid that he would lose control and hurt her. "Okay, then tell me how you didn''t force you, hmm?" "Let me go." She blurted out without thinking. "Let me get out of here." Unexpectedly, just as she finished speaking, the man sitting by the bed began tough at himself. He smiled wildly, but he quickly took it back. "Tian tian, you know what? I can agree to all your requests, but this one - no." Chapter 306 Chapter 306 Shu Tian''s body kept trembling. She tried her best to suppress the panic in her heart and tried to calm herself down. She knew that if she confronted this man, she would not get any good results. The two of them looked at each other and did not speak for a moment. The air was filled with a sense of urgency. Shu Tian took a deep breath and when he spoke again, there was already a hint of begging in his tone. "Let me go." "Let you go, and then?" He stood up and approached her step by step until his steady steps stopped at her feet. "Give you another chance to stay away from me?" "I can''t escape." Shu Tian curled his lips bitterly and looked up at him with tears in his eyes. "You have the ability to make me unable to escape, don''t you?" "That''s right, so don''t struggle for nothing, okay?" He didn''t want to hurt her, not at all, but her reaction now was as if she had forgotten him. He panicked. "Li Han, I don''t know how to face you. I need to sort out my feelings..." "Why don''t you know?" He moved closer and raised his hand to lift her fair chin. "Because of your boyfriend, or because you forgot me after five years, huh?" How could he forget? Shu Tian couldn''t help butugh at herself. Her eyes blinked slightly, but she tried to be brave. "Five years, it''s been too long." Li Han narrowed his eyes at what she said. He looked at her intently, but she looked at the night behind him. "So you don''t love me anymore?" He growled, "Shu Tian, look at me." Shu Tian was forced to take a step back by him. She thought that as long as she stood firm, the man This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org. would take a step back, so she crossed her neck and clenched her hands. She said to him, "Yes, I don''t love you anymore. I love someone else." This sentence sessfully crushed Li Han''sst shred of reason. His cold eyes were fixed on her, like luo sha in hell. It was a chill in his bones. "I''ve waited for you for five years, not for you to love others." "Li Han, what are you going to do? Calm down!" The man gritted his teeth. "I''ve been waiting for you for five years, looking forward to you for five years, but you told me that falling in love with someone else was worse than torture in hell. Since you don''t care about me, I don''t have to endure it anymore!" "To me, you have always been my woman! Your life and death are uncertain, and I have waited for five years without any news. No matter what others say, I firmly believe that you are still alive, even if I know that this kind of waiting may be boring... If you say that you are cheap, then what am I?" Shu tian shook her head with tears in her eyes and her heart was disturbed by his words. However, so many years had passed, right and wrong, and many things could not go back to the past. What was the use of saying these now? "Let me go, and let yourself go. We can''t go back." She choked so hard that she could hardly utter a Li Han kissed her almost devoutly. "If I let you go, I won''t be able to live." "No, don''t make me hate you!" Shu Tian cried so hard that she could hardly breathe, but she did not dare to move too much. The man behind her was like an enraged lion, and he could go crazy at any time. Tears fell on the arms that were wrapped around her chest, one by one, so dense that it pressed against the man''s heart. He looked down at his trembling shoulders, which were now exposed to the air alone and helplessly. Patience and love all came back, and the first time they met, they bullied her like this. "Don''t cry, tian tian, don''t cry..." He suppressed the desire in his body and coaxed softly, "It''s my fault. Don''t cry." Chapter 307 Chapter 307 He had been walking for more than 30 years, and he had never been afraid of anything since he became an adult. He had lost hisposure over her tears, and the glitters that fell one by one were enough to defeat him. It was good that he didn''t say that. Suddenly, he became gentle, and his tears couldn''t stop. The words that came to his mouth turned into sobs. Li Han did not move any further, his desire had not subsided, and his body could not react. His sight touched the naked body of the woman in front of him. He turned around and took his suit jacket from the bed and draped it over her shoulder. It was big enough to cover the middle and upper part of her thigh. After doing this, he took a few steps forward, took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it. He started smoking hurriedly, as if using the pungent smell to cover up the extravagance. The fire that had been umted for five years was not so easy to set. In the quiet room, the woman''s suppressed sobs fell into her ears, making her heart ache even though the sound was not loud. At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door from outside, followed by the assistant''s respectful reminder, "Mr. Li, Miss Shu''s phone is ringing." Shu Tian choked. The person who could call her at this time could not be from thepany. She had no one in her private social circle to contact at midnight, except Meng Shichuan and Shu Xiao. Thinking of them, Shu Tian, who had just rxed a little, immediately tensed up again. She subconsciously looked at the man behind her. The man just lowered his head and smoked. After a long time, he walked straight to the door and brought her phone in.This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . His deep eyes did not miss the three words on the screen - Meng Shichuan. The man frowned slightly and finally handed the phone back to her. If he didn''t give it back, he would probably cry again. Shu Tian took it over in a hurry, more like a snatch. She saw displeasure sh in the man''s eyes and shrank back. Faced with her like this, Li Han could not vent any more anger. He could only hold it in and digest it internally. Shu Tian grabbed his clothes and walked to the furthest corner from him. He took two deep breaths before he could speak, "Hello?" "Why haven''t youe back yet?" The man''s clear and schrly voice came, with a hint of headache and helplessness in his t voice. "Shu Xiao just woke up to drink water and asked mom where she was." Hearing this, Shu Tian could not help but feel sour. However, she was afraid that Meng Shichuan would find out that something was fishy, so she could only endure it. Her pale little face was flushed, and there was a covetous man behind her. She did not dare to say anything more. "There is an ident that needs to be dealt with tonight. It doesn''t matter. It will be over soon." "An ident?" Meng Shichuan put away her ease and asked her with some seriousness, "Does it matter?" "It''s okay. I can handle it myself." "Do you need me to send someone to pick you up?" Through a microphone, Meng Shichuan always felt that something was wrong with what she said, but he couldn''t tell exactly what was wrong. "No, I''ll go with my assistant. Don''t worry." Shu Tian clearly felt that as she said this, the temperature in the room would drop a little, and all of this came from the man who was smoking. She hurriedly hung up. "I''ll tell youter. Hang up." After the call was cut off, Shu Tian hurriedly put on his underwear and gown. Although arge piece of the clothes had been torn, his coat could still cover it. After tidying herself up, Shu Tian turned around and looked up at the man. "Boyfriend?" Hisst voice rose, more of a mockery than a question. Before Shu Tian could say anything, he added, "You two live together?" "I..." "What I did to you just now, did he do to you?" Shu Tian did not know how to answer. They lived together, but nothing had happened. She could not say such words to him. Her silence became tacit agreement in Li Han''s eyes. No wonder she contradicted herself so much. It turned out that she had already epted another man. His anger subsided by half. At this moment, all that climbed up to his heart was disappointment and sadness, as if his favorite thing had been taken away by someone else. He was so unwilling and so unwilling to ask for it. But what? Tie her up or imprison her? She was an independent person with independent thoughts. Even if a person was here and his heart was not there, what could he do? This thought made Li Han more frightened and uneasy than ever. He could do nothing, but he could not just watch her love others. He could onlyfort himself that this was only temporary. She only said this because she was angry. A cigarette soon reached the end of the cigarette. He was stunned and was burned to the skin of his fingers by the sparks. He suddenly realized that the man put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray and looked at her. "I''ll send someone to send you back." It seemed that he didn''t expect him to suddenly let go. Shu Tian was a little surprised. "You... Let me go?" "Or you can stay if you want." He seems to have said a joke, but in fact, there is a hidden expectation. However, she opened the door and walked out without looking back. Li han stood behind her and looked at her resolute back. The gloom in his eyes faded, leaving only bitterness and fragility. The assistant couldn''t help but feel worried when she looked back at his face. Over the years, others could not understand him, saying that he was cold and inhuman, but how many people could understand that he had only given everything and died once, so he was trembling and put away the warmth in his heart? ... Before going back, Shu Tian specially went to lie down with Lily. With her current dress, she couldn''t go home at all. "Do you have any extra clothes for me to wear?" Lily looked at her in shock and couldn''t help but raise her hand to cover her mouth. "Ohmygod! Why are you like this?" Shu Tian was a little embarrassed. Naturally, she couldn''t tell her more about this kind of thing. She could only force herself to pretend that nothing had happened. "Nothing happened. There was just a little dispute." "Did he do it to you? Or did he vite you? If there is one, you must tell me! Suran, we are allw people. Don''t be afraid..." Lily was still chattering, obviously convinced that Shu Tian had suffered. Shu Tian raised his hand to interrupt her. "There''s no real harm. Don''t worry about me. I know what to do." She quickly changed her clothes. It was a long-sleeved knitted jacket and a pair of jeans, which were loose andfortable to wear. "I''ve wronged you tonight. Don''t tell anyone about this. I''ll see you at the
