Chapter 20

When Zhen Yan heard Xiao Sen ask her to go to the Wuzhou Hotel, she couldn't help but feel a little strange. When did this old guy become so willing
to spend money? Is there really some great joy he wants to celebrate? Spending money to celebrate is not his style. When they first
started dating, he might have been willing to put in some effort and spend some money, but she had been with him for so long, and she
would to America, so he wouldn't be so eager to please her. Unless... someone else paid the rent for him. Who
could it be? Zhen Yan couldn't figure it out for a moment, and worried that Xiao Sen was getting impatient, so she hurriedly changed her clothes and went
downstairs.

As the car passed the Futian District Committee, she remembered that Chen Lin seemed to have mentioned that people from Henan were staying at the Wuzhou Hotel, so Zhen Yan quickly
slowed down, picked up her phone, and dialed her number.

Chen Lin started with a burst of laughter and scolding. "You slut, you always call when I'm trying to sleep. What urgent matter do you have to ask
this time ?"

"It's not even ten o'clock yet, my dear lady. You're going to bed too early, aren't you? There's no one waiting for you in bed.
Haha..."

Chen Lin immediately gritted her teeth and said, "It's true that you're a slut. Wandering around looking for men in the middle of the night. You
're shamelessly slutty."

"How did you know I was outside?"

"Of course, you're on your phone, do you think you're at home?"

Zhen Yan was speechless and could only say resentfully, "I'm slutty on the outside, unlike you, who's slutty
inside . You'll die of pent-up desire sooner or later."

Chen Lin's voice suddenly became unusually seductive. "I have many ways to vent. You may be prettier than me,
but you're not necessarily happier than me. Hehe..."

Zhen Yan suddenly wanted to know
how , and forgot to continue her counterattack.

Since her sophomore year, Chen Lin had been her only friend, and bickering with Chen Lin was her only source of
relaxation and joy. In many moments, she needed Chen Lin's teasing to relieve her tense or suppressed
nerves. This time was no exception. Her slightly protruding belly made her dare not take any more
risks. Xiao Sen couldn't always get away with things through wit and luck, especially since she had no idea
what she was about to face.

As the car approached Xinzhou Road, Zhen Yan cleared her throat with a serious expression and asked in a deep voice, "Enough with the nonsense,
tell , are the people from Henan staying at the Wuzhou Hotel?"

"What? You're interested in them too. Hehe..."

"Yes. Who are they? Which rooms are they staying in?"

"Are you really interested? That guy's size is probably equivalent to three of you. Even if you can handle it,
the baby can't. Don't do anything rash!"

She could vaguely see the short, wide building. Zhen Yan barely suppressed the urge to continue joking and pleaded softly,
"Tell me quickly, Miss! It's important business, extremely urgent business."

"Other interests? Not that kind of interest? Hehe..."

Chen Lin chuckled, not interrupting further, and immediately told her the basic information and room
numbers .

Why did Xiao Sen want her to go to Luo Han's room? Zhen Yan thought for a moment, then asked, "
Where ? Is she with them?"

"Liu Xin had something to do tonight and left the company early. I heard from Xu Hui that Xiao Sen is treating
Luo Han ."

"Just the three of them?"

"Two. Xu Hui isn't going."

If that's the case, the other two should be in their room. This is strange. Xiao Sen has never
introduced her to strangers, and she has never thought of meeting Xiao Sen's friends. Why would Xiao Sen let
her appear in this kind of situation?

Even after entering the lobby and reaching the elevator, Zhen Yan's doubts remained, and she even began
to feel uneasy.

Could it be that Xiao Sen had treated Luo Han to a woman outside the hotel, and, feeling resentful for spending too much money, was
using his room to invite her for a quickie? This reason, while roughly plausible, seemed very odd.
Moreover, what if Luo Han got upset and couldn't find him at the hotel? Xiao Sen would lose face terribly,
and might even lose his job. He wouldn't take such a risk. Zhen Yan grew increasingly uneasy.
She turned around, walked slowly to one side of the lobby, and used the internal phone to call Luo Han's room.

"Is Dean Xiao in?"

"He's next door, probably already having his fun, hehe... You're Zhen Yan? You have a very nice voice, you
must be even more beautiful. Have you arrived yet? I can't wait!"

No wonder Chen Lin said Xiao Sen and he hit it off immediately; they were practically kindred spirits. Luo Han's lewd laughter sent
a chill down Zhen Yan's spine. What alarmed her even more was that Xiao Sen was likely in Xu Hui's room, and he had
called clearly to serve Luo Han.

"You two old lechers, what do you take me for? A prostitute? Damn it!" Zhen Yan cursed angrily,
almost turning to leave. But remembering Xiao Sen's threat on the phone yesterday, he could only try to answer calmly, "
Are Secretary Luo? I have some things to attend to, so I might not be able to make it today. I'm really sorry!"

"What? Didn't you just agree? What's Xiao Sen doing? Wait a moment, I'll get
him to take the call."

This Luo Han is not easy to deal with either! Damn it! Zhen Yan cursed inwardly again, knowing that Xiao Sen would definitely force him to come;
if he ruined his and Xu Hui's mood, things would definitely get even worse today, so he could only grit his teeth and say with a wry smile,
"No, no, Secretary Luo! I promise I'll get there as soon as possible."

"As soon as possible? How long is 'as soon as possible'?"

Zhen Yan replied helplessly, "About half an hour."

"That's more like it. Hehe..."

Luo Han chuckled lewdly and said again. "The faster the better, so that the old man doesn't get too frustrated and can't get out, and
you won't get any sleep all night."

Zhen Yan agreed with a forced smile, put down the phone, went to sit on the sofa next to him, sat quietly for a while, and finally stood
up and walked towards the elevator.

Wasting time here isn't a solution. This is a one-time event, a matter of life and death. Luo Han is older and weaker,
so he shouldn't be too violent. If it really doesn't work, maybe he should just give up that damn degree; it doesn't necessarily mean he'll survive.
People are starving to death. Zhen Yan's thoughts wandered aimlessly as she stepped out of the elevator and slowly strolled down the corridor.

A room door was open, and Xiao Sen's familiar voice came from inside. "...Zhen Yan, I managed to
handle that matter for you. Now there's something else, which I can also help you keep quiet about with Xiao Xue. How will you thank me?"

Zhen Yan's heart skipped a beat. She quickly stopped, listened carefully, and confirmed it was indeed Xiao Sen. She couldn't help but
slowly walk over, standing by the door. Looking at the room number, she knew it was Xu Hui's room. She vaguely sensed an opportunity and
decided to listen further. The

person speaking to Xiao Sen was clearly Liu Xin. Xiao Sen had obviously mistaken Xu Hui for his lover and was using Xiao Xue to
blackmail him into agreeing to many conditions, and Liu Xin seemed to have agreed to them all… How could he agree to such
greedy conditions from Xiao Sen? Although Liu Xin wasn't stingy, he always hated being blackmailed.
What was going on? Wasn't he still trying to bring down Xiao Sen? He was clearly playing hard to get, a classic case of giving before taking!

Hearing Xiao Sen hang up the phone, Zhen Yan quickly went to hide around the corner. She glanced back and, seeing Xiao Sen hadn't
come out , relaxed and continued to sort out her jumbled thoughts.

Was it possible to use these secrets she'd overheard to blackmail Xiao Sen? Probably not. No one would
pose a threat to Xiao Sen after obtaining this information. Liu Xin already knew, and Dean Xie usually
kept quiet if it didn't concern him. What about Ling Chen and Xiao Xue? They didn't seem to have any power to threaten Xiao Sen, and besides, they were family
, their basic interests aligned. Thinking of this, Zhen Yan felt deflated. Such a lucky
secret, completely useless, was unbearable.

No, that wasn't right. She could tell Xiao Sen Liu Xin's true intentions. Discovering this only way to use it,
Zhen Yan became even less happy. At this moment, even if she offended Xiao Sen hundreds of times, she couldn't afford to offend
Liu Xin once. With such a disparity in power and conflicting interests, Zhen Yan couldn't afford to choose the wrong side or join the wrong alliance!

She shook her head, trying to clear her mind. Glancing around, she saw the security camera around the corner,
knowing she couldn't linger, yet she was caught in a dilemma, gradually becoming annoyed.

Xu Hui had somehow been driven away by Xiao Sen. He hadn't had his fill, and after Luo Han finished, he would likely come back to
bother her. What to do?

Zhen Yan went back down to the lobby, found a sofa, and pondered for a long time, but still couldn't find a
perfect solution.

Xiao Sen was bound to be offended. What she needed to do wasn't to try to avoid offending him, but to
minimize the losses from doing so. With this decision made, Zhen Yan's mind immediately sharpened. The only one who could
help her minimize her losses was Liu Xin. He shared her hatred and should be willing to help. How
could she first move him? Xiao Sen mistakenly believed Xu Hui was Liu Xin's lover, which meant their
relationship was unusual. Now, Xu Hui was nowhere to be found. If Zhen Yan told Liu Xin
this and helped him find Xu Hui, perhaps Liu Xin would easily agree to her request…

Zhen Yan thought about it carefully several times, feeling the chances of success were high. She stood up, walked out of the lobby, and
headed towards the parking lot, dialing Liu Xin's number as she did so.

"What's up?"

Liu Xin asked casually.

Zhen Yan didn't answer, but directly asked, "Are you still with Xiao Xue?"

"How did you know?"

Liu Xin's voice was almost completely unsurprised.

"Never mind that. I have something urgent to tell you. Is now a good time?"

"Yes, go ahead." "

I heard everything Xiao Sen said on the phone. And I believe he
acted first because he failed to rape Xu Hui; he was probably afraid you'd cause him trouble if you found out."

"Were you there at the time, or did you go later?"

Liu Xin remained unusually calm.

Sensing that Liu Xin might also suspect her, Zhen Yan paused, gritted her teeth, and honestly recounted why she had
been coerced by Xiao Sen to come to the Wuzhou Hotel, why she had hesitated for so long before going up to him, and why
she suspected Xiao Sen of trying to rape Xu Hui. This was the first time in many years that she
had spoken so much truth to a man, and after finishing, she felt an unprecedented sense of emptiness, ease,
and exhilaration.

After listening, Liu Xin paused for a moment, then asked in a deep voice, "What did Luo Han say to you on the phone? Please
repeat it!"

"He said Xiao Sen was next door, probably already having his fun. He also said he was getting impatient waiting for me and told me to come quickly,"

Zhen Yan answered carefully, vaguely hearing a car horn on the phone, and suddenly felt a little strange. They weren't at
the Xiao family's house ? Was he alone or with Xiao Xue?

"Have you seen Xu Hui?"

Liu Xin suddenly asked again.

"I haven't seen her. But I just walked around the lobby and didn't see any
girls . I don't know if she ran out or just went back to her room. So I thought it would be better to let you know."

"Thank you."

Liu Xin didn't seem to express much gratitude, his words remaining calm, composed, and concise. "I'll
handle it properly, you can go back now."

This guy is really composed. Zhen Yan couldn't help but feel annoyed. But thinking that she had to take this opportunity to get
Liu Xin's help to keep her degree, she could only try to control her emotions and sighed softly, "I can't leave now. I have
to figure out a way to fool Xiao Sen first."

Liu Xin still acted as if it was none of his business. "How do you plan to 'foole' him?"

"I..."

Zhen Yan stammered, and after a long while, she answered helplessly. "I guess I can only risk going up to them and see
if there's any room for negotiation."

"That's fine. Luo Han is very tall, maybe you'll like him. Hehe..."

Was he deliberately trying to provoke me all along? Liu Xin's sudden sarcasm gave Zhen Yan a glimmer of
hope , and she quickly retorted with a light, angry spat, "Pah! You, Liu Xin, not only will you not help me with my advice, but you've also
conspired with Xiao Sen to push me towards some shady old man. Let me tell you, if
anything , none of you will escape responsibility."

"What does it have to do with me? It's clearly Xiao Sen who's forcing you. If you want to hate someone, hate him."

"You won't even help with this little thing, what kind of good person are you? Humph!"

"What little thing?"

Liu Xin answered his own question with an air of seriousness. "Oh, giving advice, huh? Then I suggest you give up that degree
; it's not necessarily going to be of much use anyway."

"Please! Stop giving such terrible advice! Even for the sake of these two or three years, I won't
easily give up my degree. Besides, I might need it to make a living in the future."

"Then what other options do you have? Call Xiao Sen, explain your predicament, and ask him to understand?"

Zhen Yan refused directly, "No, I can't tell him I'm pregnant." "

Why? Is he the father?"

"Of course not."

"Then who is?"

"I really don't know. Whoever it is has nothing to do with the child. The child is mine, and the fewer people who know, the
safer ."

Speaking of the child, Zhen Yan became even more certain that she couldn't go and
deal .

"Then... I'll go talk to them about something serious, so you can slip away?"

He actually had the mind to be such a poor mushroom! Zhen Yan was so angry she wanted to laugh, but she couldn't afford to get angry again. She could only sigh and
reject the idea, saying, "You can stop me today, but you can't stop me tomorrow."

"If this doesn't work, I have no ideas. Hehe... Have you come up with any solutions yourself?"

If she didn't ask him first, he would definitely keep acting like a mule. Thinking of this, Zhen Yan had no choice but
to give up her fantasies and stop trying. She replied in a low voice, "I do have a solution, but I'm afraid you won't agree. Sigh..."

Liu Xin's voice was immediately full of smugness. "What's the solution? Tell me!"

"Don't you have a good relationship with Dean Xie and Professor Zhou? Could you ask them to help me keep my
degree ? I can afford it as long as it's not too expensive."

"I'm afraid that won't work. You know the advisor's comments are the most important; other people's opinions
are just for reference."

"Is there really no way at all?"

"Unless someone can force him to write a satisfactory comment, it definitely won't pass."

"You and Dean Xie have a lot of influence over him. I think you're unwilling to help. Humph!"

"Didn't you hear that phone call just now? He's controlling me now. How could I dare to offend him?"

Zhen Yan's heart skipped a beat, but she couldn't quite understand why, so she asked, "What about Dean Xie?"

"I'm not very familiar with Dean Xie, and besides, he's also asking Xiao Sen for a favor. He might not be willing to put in much
effort . And your matter is so urgent; it might need to be submitted for approval this week."

Seeing Liu Xin bring up the issue of time, the thing that had made Zhen Yan seem to understand earlier immediately became exceptionally clear.
"I've got it. Weren't you planning to take down Xiao Sen? Could you launch your plan now? That way, he won't have the time
, energy, or even the power to stop me from getting my degree."

"Oh."

Liu Xin pondered for a moment before asking, "Aren't you afraid of ruining your image?"

"What's coming will come. Besides, once things get out, the school and department will definitely treat me like a hot
potato , just wanting to get rid of me as soon as possible. No one will be able to stop me from getting my degree." Zhen Yan became more and more pleased

with herself as she spoke, a slight smile creeping onto her lips.

"That's a feasible method. But I don't plan to act so soon."

"Do you want to enjoy a few more days of girlish tenderness? You, the dignified CEO Liu, still care about this?"

Zhen Yan teased Liu Xin, still somewhat worried, but then reassured her. "If we're
careful, they won't even know who's behind this. At Xiao Xue's age, once she really falls for someone
, she won't easily turn love into hatred. Of course, if you kill Xiao Sen, that's another story. Hehe..."

Liu Xin's voice was a little cold. "Don't worry about that. I'll think about it for two days and then give you an answer, okay?"

If she acted first before him, although the effect might not be very good, it should be enough to keep
her degree . However, this would inevitably offend Liu Xin, which would be a case of losing more than she gained. Thinking of this,
Zhen Yan shook her head helplessly and replied, "Alright then, I'll wait."

As if seeing through her thoughts, Liu Xin warned, "Don't go looking for trouble with Xiao Sen on your own, or
don't blame me for being ruthless."

"How could I? Even if I had evidence, I wouldn't dare to ruin your whole plan
."

Zhen Yan said in an extremely sincere voice, then paused and asked, "What about Xu Hui's situation?
Do you need my help?"

"No need. I'll be there soon. You can go back first."

Zhen Yan was startled and looked up at the road ahead, but didn't see anything. "Were you already
here before I called ?"

"Yes. Xiao Sen actually stayed in Xu Hui's room and scared her away, so of course I had to come and see
what was going on."

Liu Xin explained proactively.

"Looks like Xu Hui is quite important to you. Hehe..."

"I have no romantic relationship with her. I just don't want to see a good girl ruined
by "

So it's okay if she's ruined by you? Hearing the words "good girl," Zhen Yan couldn't help but
feel resentful. Xu Hui is a good girl, and Xiao Xue is a good girl too. I really want to see just
how good they are, and how badly you'll ruin them.

"Is there anything else?"

Zhen Yan quickly replied, "No. But I'll stay and help you look. It's always
better to have another person."

Liu Xin hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

After discussing for a few moments in the parking lot, just as the two were about to split up, Zhen Yan's phone suddenly rang again.

"It's Xiao Sen,"

Zhen Yan said, glancing at Liu Xin with pleading eyes.

"Answer it; it'll stall him and prevent him from running into me."

"I...how do I explain it to him?" "

Just say I asked you to accompany an important guest and I can't get away,"

Liu Xin replied simply, turning and walking towards the lobby.

Zhen Yan nodded, following him to the door. Seeing Liu Xin heading straight for the counter, she knew he wanted to
ask , so she dialed back, holding the phone up to her face.

"Why aren't you here yet?"

"I really can't get away, Mr. Xiao. Liu Xin asked me to accompany an important guest, and he's very difficult to please,"

Zhen Yan said sweetly, secretly amused. This old man won't be able to cause trouble for more than a few days. Really...
He wanted to see what he would be like after losing his power.

Xiao Sen's tone immediately weakened. "Is he really Liu Xin's guest? Don't make up excuses. I'll
know ."

"Really. How could I dare to lie to you? You can call him and ask if you don't believe me."

"Damn it, Liu Xin is really something, nothing's wrong now, of all times."

Xiao Sen said, his momentum weakening, "Forget it. Unlucky in love, lucky in business... no,
lucky , I won't bother with you. When are you free?"

"This guy is very persistent, and he'll be staying in Shenzhen for three days. You'll have to wait three days."

"Wait my ass! You think you're the only one worth anything? I can find anyone! Damn it—"

"I may not be that valuable. But I have advantages that others don't have, right? Hehe..."

"You little slut, just wait. I'll settle accounts with you properly in three days."

After hanging up the phone, Zhen Yan was about to look up to see where Liu Xin was, but he had already walked
over .

"Any news?"

Zhen Yan asked in a low voice.

"The waiter said Xu Hui left through the main gate and hasn't come back,"

Liu Xin said, glancing up at Zhen Yan's back.

Zhen Yan involuntarily turned around, looking at the faintly shimmering Shennan Avenue and the Special Zone Daily
building standing against the night sky. She paused, then asked, "Could they have mistaken her?"

"No. She's been staying here for over ten days; several people remember her."

"Is it possible she came to your house looking for you?"

"Unlikely."

Liu Xin glanced at her expressionlessly. "I'm not actually very familiar with her. Since she came to Shenzhen, she hasn't contacted me at all
except work."

Then why was he so concerned about Xu Hui? Was it because Xu Hui was exceptionally outstanding that he valued her, or was he
like this with every "good girl"? Zhen Yan was secretly curious, but continued to express her concern. "Who else does she know in
Shenzhen ? Do you know?"

"No."

"Then what do we do now? Wait for her here?"

Liu Xin pondered for a moment, then slowly analyzed, "She probably didn't bring her wallet, so she can't have gone far. The only thing to
worry is that Xiao Sen will still be there when she comes back. We need to find a way to get rid of Xiao Sen first."

Seeing the thoughtful look in Liu Xin's eyes, Zhen Yan's heart skipped a beat. "I just told him I had to accompany your
client for three days, and you've already gone back on your word. It doesn't seem good. What if he suspects you too..."

Zhen Yan became more and more timid as she spoke, and finally stopped talking. After all, she had just asked Liu Xin for help. If Liu Xin
insisted that she lure Xiao Sen out, she couldn't find a good reason to refuse.

Liu Xin smiled strangely, seemingly mocking, seemingly contemptuous, and seemingly with a rare hint of pity.
"Alright, alright. I didn't say I wanted you to come forward."

"Thank you."

Zhen Yan put on a grateful face and asked. "Do you have any other ideas?"

"Of course."

Liu Xin seemed confident. "You're tired too, you should go back first. I
can handle things here by myself."

Zhen Yan hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth. "Try your method first. If it doesn't work, I promise I'll help you get
Xiao Sen out of there."

Liu Xin looked at her with surprise, a hint of approval on his face. "I need to call Xiao Xue. Wait a minute."

After saying that, he took a few steps away and held up his phone.

This guy is really hard to please! Zhen Yan looked at Liu Xin's tall back, feeling annoyed but also somewhat
admiring. If she could become his capable assistant or even partner in the future, her dream of returning home in glory would probably
not be difficult to realize. But how could she make him more aware of her value?
After studying abroad for a few years, should she recommend herself to join his company?

Liu Xin's serious expression surprised Zhen Yan. "What? Is it not okay?"

"No."

Liu Xin grabbed her arm and quickly hid in the shadows around the corner of the corridor outside. "Xiao Xue is gone too.
Xiao Sen will be back soon."

"How could that be? Her phone was off?"

"She turned it off when she didn't answer. Ling Chen said she wasn't home; she probably ran away shortly after I left."

"Did you upset her?"

Zhen Yan asked, momentarily unsure whether she should gloat.

Liu Xin lowered her head and thought for a moment, her tone somewhat helpless. "Possibly. I answered Xiao Sen's call and hurriedly
said goodbye; she's probably overthinking things again."

"Little girls are all like that, it's alright. Hehe... But you should be more careful in the future. Even if you're
deliberately teasing her, don't tease her too much. I think Xiao Xue is quite similar to Xiao Sen in some ways."

Zhen Yan said cautiously, and seeing Liu Xin's noncommittal expression, she stopped talking and didn't continue.

What exactly did he want to do to Xiao Xue? Did she really think that by taking down Xiao Sen, she could still have Xiao Xue
? Zhen Yan couldn't figure it out, so she shook her head and smiled bitterly, turning her gaze to the lobby entrance. Sure

enough, Xiao Sen hurriedly walked out and headed towards the parking lot.

After waiting quietly for a while, Liu Xin released her arm and said gently, "Let's go too.
Thank you for your help today."

Hearing this rare "thank you," Zhen Yan was somewhat pleasantly surprised and quickly nodded in response, "Okay. If there's anything else
you need, just let me know. My phone will be on."

Zhen Yan had thought Liu Xin would take her words as mere politeness, but unexpectedly, her
phone rang as soon as she stepped inside.

After all, there were things in this world that Liu Xin couldn't handle. Zhen Yan felt both helpless and somewhat smug,
so she asked with genuine concern, "What? Did you find them?"

"Xu Hui is downstairs at the Bank of China. Could you please come and pick her up to stay the night?"

It was understandable that he couldn't conveniently stay there, but couldn't he take Xu Hui back to the Wuzhou Hotel? Zhen Yan was secretly puzzled,
but dared not be careless in speaking. "I'm coming right now. I should be there in twenty minutes."

"We... will wait for you at the coffee shop downstairs."

"See you later then."

Zhen Yan put down the phone, paused for a moment, but the doubts in her heart could not be completely eliminated, so she had to put them aside for the time being,
picked up her handbag, and hurried out.

In the darkness not far to the left of the coffee shop entrance, a slender woman was standing blankly, her eyes
seemed to be scanning the doorway and glass window from time to time, as if she was waiting for someone to come out, or as if she was hesitating whether to go in or not.
Zhen Yan couldn't see her face clearly, only that the long-haired figure seemed somewhat familiar. She slowed her pace, wondering if she should
go over to see who it was, but the woman suddenly lowered her head, turned, and ran away.

Could it be Xiao Xue? Very likely. After Liu Xin's hasty departure, she would naturally have followed him here.
Perhaps out of girlish shyness, or perhaps out of fear of Liu Xin's reproach, she hadn't dared to greet him, but had coincidentally witnessed the entire process of
Liu Xin finding Xu Hui. Perhaps a deep misunderstanding had formed in her mind, which was why
she lingered outside the door. Her appearance had clearly deepened this misunderstanding. Understanding these points, Zhen Yan
felt increasingly regretful. Why had she reacted so slowly? If she had found Xiao Xue and helped Liu Xin explain the situation,
he would definitely be more grateful and trusting of her. That would make it much
easier .

The figure quickly disappeared behind the gray-blue flowering trees.

Perhaps she was going home now. Zhen Yan couldn't help but sigh, dejectedly pushing open the door and finding Liu Xin under the guidance of
the waiter . Liu Xin didn't say much, introducing Xu Hui to her before
inviting them out to help them into the car.

Seeing Liu Xin accompany her to the driver's seat, Zhen Yan quietly asked, "Didn't Xiao Sen already leave? Why is she
still back to the hotel?"

Liu Xin shook her head, smiling wryly, "She said she's still scared thinking about it and doesn't dare go back."

"Oh."

Zhen Yan nodded in understanding, wanting to ask if Liu Xin had invited her to her home, but feeling awkward about asking,
she hesitantly opened the car door.

Liu Xin suddenly said, "She might stay at your place for a few more days, is that inconvenient?"

"No, no, she can stay as long as she wants. It's just that I'm leaving soon too, I'm packing my things."

"Are you planning to sell that house?"

Liu Xin's unusual concern surprised and delighted Zhen Yan. "I'm thinking of doing that. But the market isn't good right now,
so I haven't put it on the market yet."

"If you're willing, you can transfer it to me. The price is negotiable."

Had she suddenly become a "good girl" in Liu Xin's eyes? Zhen Yan was very uncomfortable with
Liu Xin's concern and couldn't help but refuse, "Anyway, I don't need the money urgently, let's put it on the market for a while." Liu Xin glanced at her, smiled, and opened the car door. "Okay. Hehe... Thank you for today. I'll think about what

you mentioned ." Zhen Yan nodded, saying nothing more, only expressing her gratitude with her eyes. She and Xu Hui returned home in silence. Zhen Yan took out a rather large bathrobe and gave it to Xu Hui to take a shower. She sat on the sofa in the living room, turned on the TV, and watched it half-heartedly, but her mood couldn't be happy at all. Liu Xin, Xiao Sen, Xiao Xue, and even Xu Hui—these faces flashed before her eyes, refusing to leave for a long time. Liu Xin's face was calm and serene, Xiao Sen's face was stiff and ferocious, Xiao Xue's face was simple and clear, and Xu Hui's face... it was a rather ordinary face, like many Chinese women's faces, with a stubborn undertone beneath its rounded contours . How could Liu Xin cherish a woman like her so much? Yes, many men would like to have this kind of woman as a wife . Useless, yet obedient and dutiful, with no outrageous, extramarital , or extraordinary thoughts other than being a virtuous wife and loving mother at home. Even if the man is out there indulging in debauchery and having multiple wives and concubines, they have the ability to ignore it, not to bother or make a fuss, and to stubbornly endure until old age. But there must be some exceptions to someone like Liu Xin. Is he taking care of her as a vulnerable person, or does he really intend to marry her in the future? And what about Xiao Xue? The more Zhen Yan thought about it, the more confused she became. Was Liu Xin just playing with her? Was it to get revenge on Xiao Sen , or did he want to cultivate her into a mistress? A girl like Xiao Xue is indeed good material for a mistress. Being a wealthy lady is probably not as easy as imagined. Influenced by Xiao Sen's genes, she almost completely lacked Ling Chen's cold composure. That seemed innate. Neither she nor Xiao Sen could possess it. Liu Xin could be considered to have it, though sometimes it seemed more like a forced act. What deep-seated hatred did he have for Xiao Sen that made him so obsessed with revenge even after gaining wealth and power? Every time she thought about this question, Zhen Yan found it hard to suppress her curiosity. Having been caught in the middle between Xiao Sen and Liu Xin for so long, she still didn't know the key to the matter, and she was unwilling to leave. After the evening news, the weather forecast told her: the first typhoon of 2001 was approaching. Why so early this year? Even if I like typhoons, there's no need to rush to send me off like this. Zhen Yan thought, her head spinning. Just as she turned off the coastal highway, Xiao Sen nearly crashed into the back of a truck. He frantically swerved the steering wheel several times before finally stopping on the opposite sidewalk. In the trembling lamplight, the massive banyan tree, less than two meters from the front of the truck, seemed poised to pounce . The truck remained there menacingly, a complete black hole, devoid of any light. There were no streetlights around either. In such an alley, in such the dead of night, it was best to avoid trouble. Xiao Sen took a couple of breaths, recalling the news of the car accident and robbery he'd seen a few days ago quickly glanced around, finding nothing suspicious, then gently started the car, reversed a couple of times, and drove home again. All the effects of the alcohol had vanished with a start. Even the worry and anger from Xiao Xue's disappearance dissipated with the cold sweat in the crisp, cool air. Yes, what was there to worry about? Xiao Xue was definitely going to find Liu Xin, and Liu Xin would definitely bring her back. There was no need to be angry. Since Liu Xin had already agreed to his request, he'd let them have their fun for a few days. A balance of tension and relaxation was essential. Too much tension would break the string. What if Liu Xin gets frustrated and loses heart, dragging her feet and not doing her job properly? Wouldn't that be like picking up a sesame seed and losing a watermelon? The more Xiao Sen thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed. The words he had originally intended to use to reprimand Ling Chen finally turned into a comforting smile after he entered the room. Seeing his gentle expression, Ling Chen was taken aback, unsure whether Xiao Sen was genuinely not angry or just pretending. He could only cautiously ask, "Old Xiao, where do you think Xiao Xue might have gone?"
