Prologue

If we could slice the world across time—the material world and the spiritual world—we would discover many thought-
provoking cycles of interpersonal relationships.

A couple holding hands and gazing at each other is a two-point cycle; a husband looking at his child, a child looking at his mother, and a mother
looking her husband is a three-point cycle; but when a couple makes love in a car, the man thinks of his wife and children at home,
and the woman thinks of Brad Pitt or Bill Gates. The two-point cycle in the material world
has diverged into a double-pronged fork in the spiritual world.

Observing the structure of these cycles and the reasons for their divergence, comparing the contrasts in interpersonal relationships between the two worlds, and studying
the process of change from cycle to divergence or from divergence to cycle is obviously very interesting. A cycle without divergence
is rigid; a divergence without cycle is tragic; in dialectical terms, cycle is for the sake of
divergence, and divergence is for the sake of establishing the next cycle. Change generates energy, and so, times change,
circumstances shift , comedies and tragedies come and go, dramas and farces rise and fall, like endless salted
fish in the ocean.

Five people, ten connecting lines, a pentagon and a pentagram,
flickering in the sky of the spiritual world, seemingly able to maintain a stable balance until the distant future.

But eternity does not exist, and the ideal state of stable balance cannot last. Moreover,
what circulates among them is not only affection and pity, but also contempt and disgust, and even
calculation and hatred.

Thus, after only fifteen minutes, this long-brewing and precious five-point cycle has
disintegrated as if it had never been formed at all.

Fifteen minutes, from 4:13 PM to 4:28 PM on April 1, 2001, is but
a fleeting moment in the river of time.

The moment passes, leaving only emptiness.

The sky grows increasingly dark and inexplicable.

Chapter 1

Fate is nothing but a whore; the rich and powerful can do whatever they want with her. A little premonition, what's there
to be afraid of!

After passing the Tongle Joint Inspection Station, Liu Xin's mind finally began to relax. The familiar feeling restored his
confidence that everything was within his calculations and under his control. This confidence was something he had lost several times during his time in Henan. At
times, he even thought it would never return.

But he returned, and it returned too. How wonderful! For the first time, Liu Xin felt a
sense . Under this warm and refreshing atmosphere, the unexpected events that had occurred in distant Henan over the past few days
increasingly seemed like a joke, a sordid joke.

When his assistant, Xiao Wang, excitedly told him on the phone that they were about to sign the contract, Liu Xin was somewhat surprised.
He knew the contract would be signed sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be so soon. To be honest, this IPO agreement was far from
as fair as it appeared, even fundamentally unfair, although those old guys could make a considerable profit from it.
But compared to the assets they were selling, it was just a drop in the ocean. One percent, divided among five people, isn't
even . Liu Xin had initially thought they would take the opportunity to squeeze more money out of him.

Of course, Xiao Wang contributed, Xiao Zhang certainly did a lot, and perhaps even the boss
did. However, ultimately, most of the credit would go to Liu Xin. Securing the company's first joint venture agreement
would not only establish his authority but also give him more leverage with the boss. From any perspective,
it was something to be happy about.

In retrospect, perhaps it was this anticipation of victory that led to the repeated
setbacks he suffered during his first three days in Henan.

First, besides the panicked and angry Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang, only a smiling negotiation assistant—Xu Hui—picked him up at the airport
. Then, at the welcome dinner that evening, five stiff-faced old men
demanded the ratio of bonus shares and employee shares be increased to 1.5%, which, based on the post-IPO share price of 5 yuan,
amounted to an extra ten million yuan. The day after Liu Xin's firm refusal, they avoided her altogether,
leaving only Xu Hui to continue reiterating their demands, determined to get what they wanted.

"These old bastards, they agreed so readily but then changed their minds. They're fucking scum!" Xiao

Zhang, who always maintained a ladylike demeanor, finally couldn't contain her anger and cursed aloud.
For the past two days, Xiao Wang, who had been feeling anxious and guilty for having no way to use his power, chimed in softly, "That's right, if we push them too far, we'll have someone
strip them of their hats, and see if they dare to be so arrogant again!" "

Come on, do you think stripping someone of their hats is that easy? Our business principle is win-win. Even if we kill
them , what benefit will you get?"

Liu Xin glared at Xiao Wang, and seeing him lower his head and remain silent, she turned to Xiao Zhang, softened her tone, and
slowly said, "Let's review this again, to see where things went wrong."

Xiao Zhang immediately offered her opinion, "Director Niu and Secretary Luo both personally agreed to the conditions with me, and Vice
Mayor Lü has been very supportive of this matter and won't interfere. Director Zhu and Director Yang are under Xiao Wang's jurisdiction
, so there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

As she said this, a disdainful look appeared on her lips as she glanced at Xiao Wang.

Xiao Wang paused for a moment before slowly saying, "Director Zhu and Director Yang are both well aware of the successes and failures involved
, and they are both people of their word. I suspect that some people don't even take
what they say in bed seriously..."

"You..."

Seeing Xiao Zhang trying to stand up, Liu Xin quickly waved his hand, signaling her to sit down, and then drew their gazes to
him . "Don't rush to blame each other. It's not your fault if someone changes their mind. Only by being open and honest can we find
the root of the problem. Let's take it one by one. First, let's talk about Vice Mayor Lü. He's in charge of industry, and the company's listing will be his
main political achievement. He also spearheaded this project, so I believe he absolutely won't change his mind. Do you agree?"

The two nodded. Xiao Zhang asked with a fawning smile, "Can the boss control him?"

Liu Xin suddenly raised his eyebrows and stared at her. "That's none of your business. How did you handle Director Niu and Luo Han
?"

Xiao Zhang stiffened, her smile somewhat awkward. "What problems could those two old lechers possibly have? Secretary Luo..."
" He took the bait quickly and agreed just as fast. Although Director Niu had some initial difficulties, he repeatedly assured me that he wouldn't
change his mind after we got him on board."

"Did Luo Han make that promise later?"

Xiao Zhang's smile immediately vanished. "No, not at all. But he agreed very readily, so he should..."

"Business is like war, don't talk to me about 'should'!"

Liu Xin interrupted her coldly. After a long pause, he turned to ask Xiao Wang, "What about your side? How did it go?"

"Director Zhu and Director Yang both agreed after I explained the pros and cons in detail. I
believe with their clear minds in charge of factory finances, they wouldn't be unaware of the consequences of a failed negotiation. I don't think they
have any reason to change their minds."

"In that case, it seems that Luo Han is the most likely culprit."

Liu Xin pondered for a moment before asking again, trying to be as gentle as possible, "Xiao Zhang, this isn't entirely your fault. You
don't need to blame yourself too much. Tell me, what kind of person is he?"

"A lecherous scoundrel who knows nothing. I heard he used to be a county magistrate, but he was demoted to the position of
secretary in this factory because of his promiscuity."

"Then how could you not handle him with your skills?"

Xiao Wang asked sarcastically.

"Whether he changed his mind is still uncertain."

Xiao Zhang said this, but there was little confidence in his eyes as he glanced at Liu Xin. "That old guy is definitely a womanizer,
but he has quite a few mistresses outside. I can't be with him for long, so... I guess the high cost of keeping mistresses
is wants to raise his price."

"Just let you become his mistress and serve him comfortably, isn't that enough? Hehe..."

Liu Xin quickly glared at Xiao Wang. "Nonsense! When someone takes a fancy to you,
do you become a dedicated mistress too? Does the company even need to continue operating?"

To ensure his reprimand was most effective, Liu Xin took a few sips of coffee. "Although you two
are just my assistants now, your treatment is the same as everyone else's, and you'll definitely have to go out and work independently in the future. You don't even have
team spirit , do you still want to continue working for the company?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Liu. I just saw the atmosphere was bad and wanted to make a joke to ease the tension. I really didn't mean to blame her
. I'm sorry!"

Seeing that Xiao Zhang also laughed, Liu Xin then said gently, "Let's all think about how to completely win over
Luo Han ."

"Have you used all your resources?"

Xiao Wang asked.

"We've used almost everything. However, this guy's been through a lot, so I'm not very confident about the results. But
I think we absolutely can't back down. Giving him a discount alone won't work either.
Who can won't collude with others?"

Xiao Zhang cautiously observed Liu Xin's expression. "If all else fails, we'll have to try someone else."

Liu Xin immediately rejected her suggestion. "Even if someone else is better than you, their abilities are limited. Xiao Wang, do you
have any good ideas?"

"I don't know if it's a good idea. I think we might as well do the opposite. Since the success or failure of the negotiations isn't in these
few days , let's just pretend to give up and see what they do."

Liu Xin nodded. "I think so too. I believe the other four are the type who will add more if they can, and
if the negotiations really might break down, they'll definitely put a lot of pressure on Luo Han. At that time, the initiative will
be in our hands."

Sure enough, after Xiao Zhang returned to Shenzhen first, and Liu Xin and Xiao Wang also went to Zhengzhou to find a hotel to stay in, they
quickly became impatient. However, the fact that Luo Han wasn't among those calling the company to see him made
Liu Xin both happy and worried. He was pretty sure Luo Han was the one behind it all,
but the guy's composure meant the problem wouldn't be so easy to solve. He really didn't want to compromise and
damage his image at the company.

Unexpectedly, last night, when Liu Xin's confidence was waning, this
crisis that left him unsure how to proceed and forced him to take things one step at a time suddenly turned into a joke.

The joke started when he saw Xu Hui in the lobby.

It was almost midnight when Liu Xin, supported by Xiao Wang, returned to the hotel, feeling dizzy. He kept
wondering —was he not convincing enough, or were they just too stupid to find him? A soft voice
called out to him from behind. "Mr. Liu! Mr. Liu!"

It was Xu Hui, of course. In that instant, Liu Xin was struck by how pleasant Xu Hui's voice was. He stared blankly for a while
before slowly turning around and looking at the face he had never paid much attention to before, and was startled again. She might
not be considered a beauty, but with a little grooming, she wouldn't be much less attractive than Xiao Zhang or Zhen Yan.
And her ample figure was exceptionally rare among the young women he knew. He liked this fullness, more than
anyone else thought.

Liu Xin thought vaguely, completely forgetting to try and figure out why she had come here.

Seeing Liu Xin's strange expression and silence, Xu Hui's expression grew even more timid. "Mr. Liu, do you have a moment?
I… I'd like to talk to you."

Liu Xin finally snapped out of her daze and tightened her grip on Xiao Wang's arm. Xiao Wang immediately understood and replied,
"Didn't you see how hard Mr. Liu has worked all day? We can talk about it tomorrow."

Xu Hui hesitated for a moment, but finally followed him to the elevator and said as firmly as possible, "Mr. Liu, please,
I must talk to you today, it will be too late tomorrow."

Liu Xin looked at her, pondered for a moment, and then replied, "Alright, then come up with me."

He led Xu Hui into the room, patted Xiao Wang on the shoulder to signal him to leave, then closed the door and
walked over to the sofa opposite Xu Hui. He didn't sit down, but just looked at her with hazy eyes for a while,
until she twitched her lips slightly as if she was about to speak, then he preemptively said, "I'll take a shower first, is that alright?"

"Please go ahead, Mr. Liu."

Xu Hui's eyes flickered, and her eyelashes, still clearly defined in the dim light, swept directly onto Liu Xin's chest,
stirring a tremor she hadn't felt in years.

Liu Xin suddenly felt unsteady on his feet and quickly turned to go into the inner room. While changing his clothes, he swiftly regulated
his breathing. "Damn it!" Liu Xin cursed under his breath. He had never been a man with a strong sex drive, never.
Even when drunk and disoriented, he always maintained a clear mind. What was wrong with him today
? Could the thrill of victory after such a setback have made him so carried away? Impossible. The root of his loss of control
could only be that lustful body and those ethereal eyes.

An Zhao, his ex-wife, didn't she have the same body and the same eyes? That trembling he felt just now—
wasn't it something he hadn't felt since leaving An Zhao?…

Liu Xin's heart tightened suddenly, and he dared not think any further. He staggered out of the bedroom, forced
a smile at Xu Hui on the sofa, then staggered into the bathroom, lay down in the bathtub, letting the torrent of water cascade over his head and body,
not even having time to take off his pajamas.

After what seemed like an eternity, Liu Xin finally steadied his breathing and relaxed his body. Xu Hui was not An Zhao, after all,
and could never be An Zhao. Aside from her voluptuous figure, their bodies didn't have many similarities. An Zhao's skin was
darker, her curves better; besides her eyes, their face shapes, noses, and mouths were completely different. An Zhao 's face wasn't as soft, and her features weren't as symmetrical. And the similarity in their eyes was most likely just a fleeting illusion born of
drunkenness . So, should he still get rid of her? Thinking this, the smile on Liu Xin's face immediately became much more composed. For the past two years place too much fantasy on her, perhaps he could find some different, pure pleasure. He should also change his habit of never treating women he worked with as men. At least, it didn't matter if she wasn't his subordinate. Liu Xin hesitated for a moment, then called out, "Xu Hui, could you please get me my pajamas? I accidentally got this set wet." He smiled smugly afterward. Calling her "Little Xu" instead of as usual would probably help bridge the gap in their status. Sitting down on the opposite sofa, Liu Xin was surprised to find Xu Hui's expression remarkably calm. Aside from her initial timidity downstairs, she seemed completely unfazed. Was it habitual indifference, or naive ignorance? Did she think she wasn't attractive enough, or did she see him as a virtuous gentleman who remained unmoved ? Or perhaps, she was simply good at hiding her true feelings, unable to express them openly? Both are possible, and both are unlikely. He really didn't know her at all. Except for those vaguely familiar eyes. Liu Xin shook his head, put a cigarette in his mouth, wiped his lighter, but didn't light it. Seeing Xu Hui still silent, he asked calmly, "Speak, what do you want to talk to me about?" "I..." Xu Hui hesitated after all. Liu Xin suddenly felt a sense of security, an easily grasped security. He didn't want to encounter an overly skilled opponent when seeking pleasure. That could easily turn into a protracted battle. Perhaps the thrill of victory would be stronger, but he didn't have that much time to waste. Only a woman like Xu Hui, skilled yet not overly skilled, was the best object for his pleasure. So Liu Xin smiled, his tone softening considerably. "Just say it, it's okay, don't hold back." He then lit his cigarette, watching Xu Hui's slightly awkward actions and expression with interest. "It's...it was Director Zhu who sent me..." Xu Hui carefully chose his words, glancing at Liu Xin before turning away. "Oh..." Liu Xin responded noncommittally, saying nothing more. Xu Hui quietly bit his lip, seemingly having finally made up his mind. "The leaders heard you've booked your flight back to Shenzhen for tomorrow afternoon and instructed me to find you and find out if the agreement is still possible." "Which leaders? Besides Director Zhu?" " Leaders from the city and bureaus, and all members of the negotiation team." "What about Luo Han?" "Luo...including Secretary Luo." The weight that had been hanging over Liu Xin's heart for three days finally lifted. His three days of running around with Xiao Wang, putting on a show, hadn't been in vain. If they hadn't thought he was wholeheartedly seeking new joint venture opportunities, that bastard Luo might not have given in so easily. His smile grew even more composed. "As long as the agreed-upon terms remain the same, the agreement can be signed tomorrow. If there's not enough time, I can postpone my return to Shenzhen by two days." "If..." Xu Hui's face showed no joy; instead, he bit his lip again. "What if we insist on the latest terms ? Is there absolutely no chance of signing?" "No," Liu Xin answered almost instinctively. Giving in now, even with just a brief hesitation, could lead to a complete retreat; he wasn't that foolish. "Go back and tell Luo Han to think it through . We can afford to wait this joint venture negotiation, but they can't. Don't let his own greed affect the benefits everyone has already secured." "No, it's not just Secretary Luo's idea; it's the idea of all the leaders." "Heh... No matter whose idea it is, my answer is the same." "Then, is the final deadline still tomorrow? Could you please wait a few more days to give the leaders enough time to discuss things properly?" "No. After tomorrow, everything will have to be scrapped and started over." Xu Hui's face finally showed some anxiety. He stammered for a long time, still unable to find the words he had likely prepared long ago. Liu Xin remained silent, still observing Xu Hui's expression with interest. This girl, who had graduated less than a year ago, probably thought the negotiation team was a cushy job, but now she'd only gotten herself into trouble. Thinking this, Liu Xin felt a pang of pity and broke the silence, saying gently, "You don't need to feel guilty . The breakdown of the negotiations isn't your fault. Hehe… actually, they shouldn't have called you. They're just grasping at straws !" "I…I…" Xu Hui's anxious face suddenly flushed with embarrassment. She bit her lip hard, her eyes fixed on her hands, which clenched tightly together as if trying to kill each other. Liu Xin asked curiously, "Do you have anything else to say?" "I…I…" Xu Hui's voice was barely audible, "The leader said I'm the most suitable candidate, and I need to do everything I can to persuade President Liu." "Do everything you can?" Liu Xin's heart skipped a beat, and she feigned ignorance, pressing for an answer. "So, what are your plans?" Xu Hui lowered his head even further, but his voice grew louder. "If President Liu agrees to our conditions, I'm willing to be his mistress." Liu Xin was extremely straightforward, almost bursting out laughing. That idiot Luo Han, after all that trouble, came up with this...

What a terrible idea. Do I look like the kind of person who would do anything for a woman? Even for the smallest gain, I might not let
a woman control me, let alone at least half a million of that ten million. That's enough
to hire Is Xu Hui made of gold? Damn it! Besides, even if you guys deliver this to my door, I
can still get rid of Xu Hui and ignore you. What can you do about it? I'm not a Communist Party member, not a civil servant,
not married, and don't have a girlfriend I can't afford to offend. Do you think you can use this to blackmail me? What
a bunch of idiots!

Liu Xin, who had been silent for a long time and only made some strange noises, clearly made Xu Hui feel at a loss. She quietly
raised her head, secretly peeking at Liu Xin's flushed face. Gradually, the anxiety and
shyness began to fade, and a glimmer of hope seemed to appear in her eyes. Noticing those lights, Liu Xin's chest
trembled again. He coughed quickly, refocusing his gaze on Xu Hui's head, and asked softly, "Was it Luo Han
's idea?"

Xu Hui was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly replied, "No, it was my own idea. Secretary Luo only told me to do my best
to persuade you."

"Really? You've invested so much; how much benefit will you get from it?"

"Keep my job, and I'll get more employee shares. Besides, I think someone as refined and
distinguished wouldn't treat me unfairly."

"That's all?"

Liu Xin was somewhat disappointed. He hadn't thought Xu Hui was innocent, but he hadn't expected her to be so pragmatic.
A job, a few hundred employee shares, some possible but not guaranteed alimony... that seemed too cheap.

"That's all."

Xu Hui nodded gently, her eyes as faint as smoke.

How could someone like her have such eyes? Liu Xin felt a pang of regret and a wave of doubt.
But he didn't want to press further; in this atmosphere, it would be difficult to get any information. It would be
better to learn more about her later. Moreover, he could no longer suppress his intense desire to kiss those eyes. He
could dislike her as a person, but he couldn't help being captivated by those eyes. Sometimes, eyes are just eyes,
completely unrelated to the person who possesses them.

"Then..."

Finding his voice trembling slightly, Liu Xin cleared his throat before continuing, "...Are you ready to be my
lover?"

Xu Hui lowered her head again, answering in a soft, emotionless voice, "Ready."

Liu Xin immediately patted the ground beside him with his right hand. "Good, come here, sit here."

"Mr. Liu, you've agreed to our conditions?"

Xu Hui looked up, her eyes growing increasingly hazy and unfocused in the growing light.

What precious eyes! It would be wonderful to bite them off, to hold them in one's mouth. Liu Xin sighed
inwardly . Suppressing his impulse, he said coldly, "How will I know how much you're worth if I don't try first?"

The light was quickly shrouded in a hazy glow. Xu Hui bit her lip hard, unable to utter a word.

"Don't cry! Come sit down!"

Liu Xin knew that the more he said this, the more uncontrollable her tears would become. And this was exactly what he wanted.

Xu Hui, her eyes blurry, swayed as she slowly stood up and walked over step by step.

Perhaps reliving the old dream was ultimately just an illusion, perhaps Xu Hui would eventually disappoint him again, but Liu Xin
couldn't care less. The passion in his chest was already surging and pounding uncontrollably. Under the temptation of such a body and
such eyes, he was willing to forget all his traumas, even forget himself.

Before Xu Hui could sit down, Liu Xin had already pulled that alluring body into his arms, pressing her against the back of the sofa,
and his murderous lips began to move up and down, trying to completely devour those eyes, those
eyes that shimmered with a mixture of light and tears.

But his mouth could not cover those eyes. He could not completely forget himself, nor could he let passion control
everything . Years of arduous struggle and meticulous planning had given him a powerful inner strength that could always
separate a part of his soul, condensing and hovering above his head, meticulously studying his every move,
and preventing any possible adverse consequences.

Liu Xin couldn't help but feel annoyed. Xu Hui's complete lack of resistance and submissiveness only fueled his anger
.

"If you're going to be my lover, at least have some professional ethics!" he thought. "Damn it! Are you just too lazy to deal with me, or are you
deliberately playing the innocent? Do you really think I'd like a blockhead?" Liu Xin cursed inwardly, releasing
his left hand that had been holding Xu Hui's head to prevent her from escaping, and instead reaching directly into her waist.

Xu Hui finally struggled slightly, seemingly muttering something. But to the passionate Liu Xin,
it sounded more like a short moan. When he stubbornly broke free from her weak, feigned resistance,
loosened his belt, pulled out her sky-blue sweater and white shirt, and fiercely grasped her curvaceous waist, Xu Hui
quickly submitted again, like a lamb waiting to die in despair.

The rare passion had suddenly dissipated by nearly half.

His vengeful hand continued its reach, loosening the hooks, grabbing a full, firm breast, and kneading it forcefully.

This time, Xu Hui didn't even utter a groan.

Amidst the crisp, salty taste, the scent of blood and fire gradually mingled.
The light , vanished, leaving only a broken, sorrowful emptiness.

The passion continued to dissipate; perhaps, it would soon vanish without a trace. Liu Xin resisted in vain,
waiting helplessly. He knew that even
with , the suppleness of her body, the warmth of her breasts, the fragrant sweat, and the lewd aura, it wouldn't be enough to
sustain his passion for long. Once the passion subsided, all that remained was lust. Only
his erect penis remained, intoxicated by lust.

But, regardless, he had to go on. Getting rid of Xu Hui but refusing her conditions was
the best warning he could give Old Luo. Besides, "one day's pleasure is one day's gain."

Who could guarantee the same effect this time? Wasn't that passion clearly
stronger than before? As Liu Xin thought this, he pushed Xu Hui away and stood up.

Xu Hui immediately sat up straight, stretched his coat, and tried to tuck it into his waistband.

"No need to tuck it in, you'll have to take it off again anyway,"

Liu Xin said teasingly.

Xu Hui glanced at him, didn't answer, stood up, continued stuffing her clothes, and
went into the bedroom before he could say anything more.

Liu Xin's competitive spirit flared up. "You've only been out of school for a year, you're still
too green to try and outsmart me. I won't call it a day until I've made you cry for your parents!" Thinking this, Liu Xin pondered
for a moment, then walked confidently to the window, opened his suitcase, pulled a small bottle from a hidden compartment, poured out a
blue pill, and swallowed it.

To Liu Xin's surprise—when he reached the bedroom door and turned on the light, Xu Hui was already
lying almost naked on her side on the bed, about to pull up the blanket and crawl in. But as the yellow light suddenly appeared, her body seemed to
tremble violently before disappearing under the blanket.

Liu Xin paused, then said sternly, "Who told you to take it off yourself? Put it back on."

Xu Hui bit her lip hard, her hands gripping the blanket stiffening. After a long pause, she stammered,
"No...no more trying it on?"

"Of course you'll try it on. But I like to do it myself."

Liu Xin smiled mockingly, turned her back to the bed, and urged, emphasizing her words, "Hurry up, I'm waiting
."

The rustling stopped quickly. Liu Xin slowly turned back. Xu Hui, fully dressed, stood by the bed, her eyes
once again misty with tears.

I refuse to believe I can't handle you. Liu Xin secretly admired her for a while before slowly walking over, standing
opposite , lifting her chin with her index finger, and staring into those familiar eyes.

Xu Hui could no longer maintain her composure. Tears welled up and flushed her cheeks,
her breathing becoming increasingly rapid, her nostrils trembling slightly.

The waning passion from before began to build up again, slowly brewing.

Liu Xin wasn't in a hurry; his hands moved slowly and skillfully, his eyes constantly scanning Xu Hui's face. Xu
Hui became increasingly uncomfortable, trying several times to turn her head away, but Liu Xin forcefully pulled her back each time. As her coat and
sweater were tossed onto the bed one by one, her whole body grew increasingly stiff.

Knowing he had succeeded, Liu Xin's movements became even slower and gentler. He loosened his belt little by little, pulled down
his trousers piece by piece, and unbuttoned his shirt one button at a time, as if what lay beneath was not a
body , but a delicate snow sculpture. Intentionally or unintentionally, his fingers would trace almost
every inch of her warm, white jade-like skin. Occasionally, he could even elicit a shiver, like a cold wind blowing.

Unless one was a seasoned veteran of the pleasure quarters, few women could resist his charm. Liu Xin thought smugly,
but inwardly he was secretly surprised by the frequency and extent of those shivers. At Xu Hui's age, it was impossible for her to have been celibate for a long time.
Was she a gifted expert or a complete novice?

But Liu Xin had no time to think about these things, because a glimmer of light was gradually returning to Xu Hui's eyes. Her misty,
ethereal eyes and deeply flushed face slowly but firmly fueled the passion in his chest. He feared that it wouldn't be
long he surpassed the heights he had just reached.

"Mr. Liu."

Xu Hui's sudden voice struck him like a morning bell. "Please turn off the light, okay?"

"No. I like to watch."

Liu Xin's voice was somewhat impatient, and his movements suddenly quickened. In the blink of an eye, Xu
Hui was completely naked.

The blush deepened, the misty blush became more ethereal, and her tightly bitten lips began
to tremble uncontrollably.

Liu Xin chuckled wickedly, reaching out to pull Xu Hui's gaze down to the bulge in the center of his body. Then he
slowly took off his pajamas, grabbed Xu Hui's hands, and pressed them as tightly as possible against his erect penis.

Xu Hui's naked body swayed violently back and forth. She quickly lost her balance, let out a soft moan, and
fell backward onto the bed. Liu Xin, in excruciating pain, could only press down on her. Even so, the hands
gripping his penis continued to tremble uncontrollably. It took Liu Xin considerable effort to finally
pry open those unusually strong hands and free his manhood.

"Damn it! You're deliberately trying to make me suffer!" Liu Xin cursed inwardly, catching his breath before pressing down on Xu
Hui again.

But no matter how hard Liu Xin tried, he couldn't completely control Xu Hui's trembling limbs. Her
eyes were tightly closed, her face was pale, and blood was clearly seeping from the corners of her mouth.

This didn't seem faked, yet it certainly wasn't epilepsy. Desperate, Liu Xin could only straighten up,
kneel down on her knees, and slap her hard across the face twice.

Her trembling body suddenly broke free from Liu Xin's oppression, throwing him aside. She then contorted into a yoga-like
shape, holding the position for several seconds before finally collapsing.

Tears immediately streamed down her face.

"Mr...Mr. Liu, I'm sorry, I...I didn't mean it, please...please...don't..."

Xu Hui stammered, sobbing uncontrollably.

"What's wrong with you? Are you sick?"

Liu Xin was furious, but he couldn't bring himself to be forceful.

"I...I'm not sick...I'm scared..."

"Scared?"

Liu Xin's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly pressed, "Scared that I'm too rough, or have you never done this before?"

"Yes...yes..."

Tears welled in Xu Hui's eyes, and she couldn't answer for a long time.

Was she unable to speak, or unwilling, afraid to speak? Suddenly, Liu Xin seemed to understand something. "You
're still a virgin?"

Xu Hui stopped sobbing, paused for a moment, and finally nodded.

Her anger and desire vanished instantly. Liu Xin looked down; his penis was already limp and lifeless.
He secretly rejoiced as he reached out to cover Xu Hui with a blanket. Then he slowly put on his pajamas, went outside, lit
a cigarette, and sat down on the sofa.

No wonder that bastard Luo Han thought Xu Hui could persuade me. Damn it! Liu Xin cursed inwardly, taking several puffs of his cigarette
before finally feeling a little calmer. It seemed Xu Hui must have been under much more pressure than she had just described,
perhaps many times greater. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to maintain her virginity after working under Luo Han for a year.
A woman like her, still a virgin a year after graduating from university, must have very conservative views on life. What
kind of immense pressure could drive her to so resolutely offer herself to me!

That old bastard Luo Han really knows his stuff; he hit my weak spot right away. If it weren't for Xu Hui's sudden...
The sudden spasm had truly put him in a difficult position, caught between a rock and a hard place. "Damn it!"

Liu Xin couldn't help but curse.

From puberty onwards, Liu Xin had always firmly believed that a woman's virginity was solely the husband's right. He didn't want
to infringe on this right of others, never had. This was his unchangeable principle. In his mind, virgins and non-
virgins were completely different species. He could have sex with any non-virgin without a care, even if she was someone else
's wife, but he could never allow himself to easily possess a woman's virginity. And since he
didn't want to keep any mistresses, nor did he think Xu Hui was qualified to be his wife, after rashly taking Xu Hui's virginity,
he would most likely have no choice but to painfully agree to their conditions. Otherwise, he would definitely fall into intense and prolonged guilt and self-reproach
. That was something he absolutely could not bear.

Liu Xin couldn't help but let out a long breath.

"Mr...Mr. Liu."

Xu Hui's voice had completely lost its former composure. "Do you want to try again?"

Turning around, Liu Xin saw Xu Hui standing timidly at the bedroom door, wearing only underwear and panties. He was surprised
but couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. This girl is really stubborn, he thought. But he didn't dare show his smile easily, only
saying gently, "No need to try anymore. Put your clothes on. I have something to ask you."

Disappointment immediately appeared on Xu Hui's face. But she quickly put on her clothes, timidly walked over, and sat down on
the sofa opposite.

Liu Xin paused for a moment before asking, "Tell me honestly, how did Luo Han force you to come?"

Xu Hui froze, and after a long while, cautiously answered, "Secretary Luo didn't force me. It was…"

"Do you think I'd believe that?"

Liu Xin raised his voice to interrupt her, "If you don't tell me the truth, no one can help you."

"Really, I'm telling the truth,"

Xu Hui repeated groaningly, tears welling up in her eyes again.

Liu Xin felt a surge of pity. "You should believe me. You have no
other choice but to believe me and tell me the truth. Going back like this will get you nothing."

Tears swayed for a while before finally streaming down her slightly swollen cheeks without restraint
. "I...I..."

Liu Xin looked at Xu Hui quietly until her tears subsided and her sobs stopped, then said gently, "Tell me.
I'll try my best to help you."

After a long while, Xu Hui still stubbornly shook her head. "It really is only what I said."

Liu Xin couldn't help but sneer. "Alright, you can go now."

Xu Hui looked at him strangely, then suddenly stood up and walked towards the door.

Her somewhat unsteady steps made Liu Xin have to call her back. "Wait."

Xu Hui stopped, but didn't turn around. "What?"

Liu Xin hesitated for a moment before saying, "Regarding the agreement, I'll give you another month. The terms remain the same, but the signing
location must be changed to Shenzhen."

Xu Hui turned around and replied calmly, "Okay, I'll pass it on."

Liu Xin felt a pang of guilt. After a moment's thought, she asked again, "Our company is setting up a representative office in Zhengzhou.
Would you be interested in coming to help with the preparations?"

Xu Hui paused and said, "No, thank you, Mr. Liu."

Then she turned to leave.

"Also,"

the inexplicable urgency in her voice surprised Liu Xin herself. She quickly took a breath and said, "
If you encounter any difficulties, you can call my cell phone anytime."

Xu Hui forced a smile, very faint, her expression increasingly unreadable. "I think I can
handle it myself. But thank you for your concern, Mr. Liu."

Liu Xin felt somewhat deflated. She didn't say anything more, silently watching her, then opened the door and walked out.

Xu Hui, who had just reached the door, suddenly turned back and said, word by word, "I heard the listing policy might change.
Vice Mayor Lü instructed that the agreement must be formally signed by the end of April."

Liu Xin immediately sat up straight, and after a while, he slumped back on the sofa, laughing triumphantly.

Chapter 2

North of Beihuan Avenue, from the OCT intersection to Jingtian, it's basically all lush, sparsely populated
wild mountains . The mountains are green, not high, and there aren't many kinds of trees and grass, but in a
city like Shenzhen that's becoming increasingly modernized, it's undoubtedly a unique landscape. This is related to the fact that Beihuan Avenue is far from the prosperous southern areas and is itself
a closed highway. However, in recent years, the mountains south of the road have been almost completely excavated, and some places are even
filled with high-rise buildings. The remaining yellowish-white mounds of earth will probably soon be replaced by concrete.

Liu Xin always enjoyed driving slowly along Beihuan Avenue. If it was night, he would open the windows,
turn off the engine, and let the mountain wind rush through the car, giving his body a chance to experience some of nature
's wildness. This is something absolutely impossible to find on the bustling and orderly Shennan Avenue and the exquisite and elegant Binhai Avenue.
He couldn't imagine what Shenzhen would have left for him to linger in once the wild mountains to the north of the road were also gone
. Therefore, although he couldn't deny that Shennan Avenue was the core of Shenzhen, he never believed that Shennan
Avenue could represent the soul of Shenzhen people. As for the saying circulating among outsiders—that every Shenzhen resident
must walk on Shennan Avenue after returning from a trip, otherwise they will feel uneasy, as if they haven't truly come home
—he scoffed at it even more. In his mind, it was just because Shennan Avenue was
the only way for most Shenzhen residents to get home from the airport or train station.

Or perhaps he couldn't be considered a true Shenzhen resident. Even though he had spent four years at Shenzhen University,
even though Shenzhen was still his first choice for development after returning to China, even though he could easily wield influence in Shenzhen now, he
probably wasn't qualified to be a true Shenzhen resident.

Now, Liu Xin didn't really want to be a Shenzhen resident either. In the year or so since returning to China, Shenzhen had
increasingly disappointed him. Those once young and hardworking people have aged prematurely, losing much of their
drive; the city itself is gradually becoming effeminate, only concerned with
embellishing its appearance with flower-filled parks and streets, and a magnificent central square. Perhaps, soon, it will be no different from other Chinese cities.

But, where else can it go besides Shenzhen? Almost all Chinese cities are either effeminate or
aging, lacking masculinity and vitality. Hong Kong is a superficial noblewoman, Guangzhou a mercenary commoner,
Wuhan a fiery village woman, and Chengdu a languid mistress. Furthermore, Chongqing is a spoiled young girl, and Nanjing a timid family.
Hangzhou is like a fallen lady, Shanghai like a middle-aged woman. And those few rare masculine cities are all
already old and worn out. Xi'an is a clumsy old farmer, Lhasa a foolish old wizard, Shenyang a decrepit landlord.
As for Beijing, it can only be considered a eunuch at best—a cunning and shrewish eunuch, or a glib-tongued one.

Surrounded by femininity and aging, how long can Shenzhen hold on? Jia Baoyu will never have much
manly spirit, and Sun Wukong will eventually accept the title of Victorious Fighting Buddha. A city brimming with masculinity and vitality simply
cannot exist in China for long; sooner or later, it will become a neurotic impotence—hard but not firm, firm but short-lived. Liu Xin
smiled helplessly, sighing inwardly. Perhaps, after fulfilling her wish, she would eventually have to
return to America.

An ominous premonition suddenly surged from the depths of her mind. Liu Xin's heart tightened, and she quickly shook her head, glancing at
the sky. Large raindrops were already pattering down. In an instant, the dusty car windows were streaked
with tears.

"At least it saves me the trouble of washing the car," Liu Xin consoled himself, his smile growing increasingly helpless. He disliked
rain , and he disliked letting the rain easily wash away the grime from his beloved car. For a Land Rover, spotless was
aristocratic elegance, dust-covered was a heroic spirit, but after the rain, it was nothing. Gone was the weathered look,
not truly clean, only bringing a sense of incongruous, self-loathing shame.

Frustrated, Liu Xin pressed the accelerator, speeding out of the North Ring Road towards the visible Bank of China Tower.
In the dim sky, lightning seemed to flash on the towering spires of the Bank of China Tower.

Sitting alone by the window of the café downstairs, gazing into the distance, was clearly Zhen Yan.

Could that ominous premonition have originated from Zhen Yan? Liu Xin absentmindedly reversed into a parking space, turned off the engine, opened
the door , and didn't step out for a long time.

Was Zhen Yan here to see him? Most likely. She knew roughly when he would return, and she probably didn't have any
other friends staying here. But what could be so urgent that she would
not only repeatedly inquire about his return date but also wait anxiously here in this weather? Was it
possible that this matter was beyond his control? Could something serious have happened to Xiao Sen and the others?

Liu Xin became increasingly hesitant. He quickly took out his phone from his suitcase and dialed the company.

"Mr. Liu, you're back? Did you just arrive?"

His secretary, Xiao Chen's, sweet voice instantly lifted his spirits. "Yes, I just arrived. Who's
been looking for me these past two days?"

"Nothing important, I'd better not say, lest I disturb Mr. Liu's rest. Hehe..."

As always, Xiao Chen was testing his reaction. Seeing that he didn't say anything, she continued, "Personally, only
Miss Zhen called yesterday. I already told her you were coming back this afternoon, as you instructed, without giving her
a specific time."

"Just that one?"

"Yes. Since you asked yesterday noon, that's all."

Xiao Chen answered carefully.

"Oh, good. I'm free today. If things aren't busy at the company, you can leave early too." "

Okay, thank you, Mr. Liu. See you tomorrow!"

Liu Xin put down his phone, feeling increasingly guilty for worrying unnecessarily. Damn it! He had to see her anyway, why was he
overthinking ! Zhen Yan probably already saw him come in. He'd better hurry up. Hiding
wasn't his usual style. Thinking this, Liu Xin raised his arms, stretched his chest, took a few deep breaths,
picked up his suitcase, and headed for the elevator.

Zhen Yan was indeed standing at his room door.

She wasn't tall, and very thin. Liu Xin had never asked her, but he estimated she weighed no more than 40 kilograms.
The long, strappy dress she wore looked especially relaxed and carefree on her. When Liu Xin stepped out of the elevator, she was leaning
against the wall, holding a pure white blazer in her hand. Together with her blue and white floral dress, it accentuated her
fair and delicate legs and face, creating a truly pleasing scene.

If she weren't so short, she would be perfect as a fashion model. Liu Xin walked over, not
showing any surprise, and simply asked, "Have you been waiting long?"

Zhen Yan couldn't help but feel a little strange. "You knew I was coming? Or did you see me just now?"

"I knew you were coming, and I saw you just now too."

Liu Xin found it somewhat amusing, but still spoke calmly. After saying that, he walked past her and took out his key to open the door.

"Hmph! Why did it take you so long to come up? I thought you'd already gone in."

Zhen Yan complained, but there was no anger in her tone; it was more like flirting
.

Liu Xin, however, wasn't buying it. He opened the door and said in a cold voice, "Do I
need to ?"

"You…"

Zhen Yan almost choked, but quickly, her expression softened. "You, ca
n't ? Did the negotiations go wrong, so you're taking it out on me? Hehe…"

Liu Xin's tone grew increasingly sinister. "That's none of your business. You'd better not care about me."

With that, he pushed open the inner wooden door and went inside.

Zhen Yan immediately regretted it. She had thought the negotiations were sure to go smoothly, which was why she dared to
joke with Liu Xin, but she hadn't expected to hit a nerve. That hateful Chen Lin dared not tell me
the truth; she would definitely find a way to get rid of that little slut someday.

Liu Xin walked straight to the sofa and sat down, coldly watching Zhen Yan's slightly hesitant steps and somewhat timid
eyes , feeling quite pleased with himself. With this initial show of force, the situation should be easier to control.
Dealing with a woman like Zhen Yan required seizing every opportunity to gain the upper hand; he absolutely couldn't be as relaxed as he was with Xu Hui.

Seeing Liu Xin intentionally or unintentionally observing her, Zhen Yan immediately straightened her shoulders and smiled. She was
always adept at quickly adjusting her posture, and this time was no exception. In this respect, many people could only
admit defeat, possibly including Liu Xin. Even she herself was often amazed by this natural
talent .

"I can't let her recover," Liu Xin thought. He closed his eyes and leaned back.

Zhen Yan hesitated for a while, then finally came over and sat down next to Liu Xin. "Are you tired? Do you want me
to give you a massage?"

she said, gently grasping his arm and kneading it.

Liu Xin gave a noncommittal snort, but inwardly admired Zhen Yan's quick wit and adaptability. If she...
She was willing to be completely open and honest with him, and not always full of scheming; she was indeed a very good
partner, both at work and in life. It was just a pity that she had never fully trusted
him , and that hadn't changed at all. Was that because of her nature, or because she had been
manipulated and deceived by men in the past?

Liu Xin suddenly realized that although he had known Zhen Yan for almost a year, he still knew nothing about her past.
Perhaps he should try to investigate her resume and background, Liu Xin thought. His desire to confront her and gain the upper hand
quickly faded.

Her slender fingers and palms continued to knead his arm and shoulder. Liu Xin's will weakened,
and soon his body went limp. He simply leaned against the sofa armrest, raised his leg, and placed it on Zhen Yan's knee.

Zhen Yan, understanding the situation, changed her massage to his thigh. After a long pause, he cautiously asked, "
Would it be better ? It's not very convenient here."

"No need,"

Liu Xin mumbled, half-asleep amidst Zhen Yan's professional massage. He
was indeed exhausted; he hadn't slept until after 2 a.m. yesterday, and had gotten up early this morning to play
golf with that damned department head all morning. Moreover, dealing with a woman like Zhen Yan, with each of them harboring their own secrets, was
truly exhausting, even though it hadn't lasted more than half an hour.

"Then... do you want me to run you a bath?"

Zhen Yan's voice grew even softer, completely ignoring his obvious refusal.

"No need,"

Liu Xin forced himself to perk up, opening his eyes to look at her hazy, pretty face. He couldn't understand why she was
so hesitant to reveal the purpose of her visit. Was it really so important that even someone as confident as her
had to wait for the right moment? Liu Xin was too lazy to continue this scheming and decided to put her in her place first.
"I want to sleep. If there's nothing else, you can go back now."

Zhen Yan remained silent for a long time, not even moving her body.

"If there's something, just say it. Don't beat around the bush."

Liu Xin's tone was clearly impatient.

"Do I have to have something to say to come see you?"

Zhen Yan retorted, her voice becoming unusually soft and seductive. "It's been so long since we last met, I missed you, is that
not allowed ?"

Liu Xin was immediately stunned. He really hadn't expected Zhen Yan to talk about feelings with him.
After their first time sleeping together, she had clearly expressed her purpose: she wanted him to cover all
her living . In exchange, she was willing
to satisfy all his sexual needs from that day until he finished his studies in the US. Knowing her own physical value, how could Zhen Yan possibly commit
the taboo of developing feelings for a client in a brothel?

This must just be a ruse. If he fell for her too easily, or was merely moved by pity
, he would probably soon be forced into a corner and have no choice but to agree to her demands. Thinking this, Liu Xin steadied himself and
said calmly, "Miss me? What are you thinking? Tell me!"

"What else could I be thinking, hehe..."

Zhen Yan said, placing her hand on his crotch and gently rubbing it twice before stopping.

Liu Xin breathed a slight sigh of relief. "Don't try to fool me. When did your sex drive become so strong?"

"You don't believe me?"

Zhen Yan turned to the side, staring into his eyes, her face flushed and her smile alluring.

Liu Xin's heart fluttered, and he almost reached out to pull her into his arms, but he quickly restrained himself. "I don't believe you,"

he said.

Zhen Yan didn't answer at first, but instead turned around, lifted his legs, and placed them on the sofa. Then she knelt on Liu Xin's waist,
took one of his hands, and slipped it under the hem of her long halter dress. Only then did she look into his eyes again and say, "
Do you believe me now?"

As soon as she finished speaking, her head slowly drooped down, quickly resting on his shoulder and neck, as if all the bones
in her body had been drained away.

It was completely soaked. She wasn't even wearing underwear. This was clearly staged; she had clearly
planned this . Damn it! Liu Xin cursed inwardly, his mind suddenly clearing considerably. He immediately called out in a deep voice, "Get up! Did you hear
me?"

Zhen Yan gave a few soft groans and twisted a couple of times. Seeing that Liu Xin didn't respond, she had no choice but to struggle to her feet and
ask, "What's wrong?"

Liu Xin pushed her down, sat up straight himself, and said slowly, "What exactly did you come to see me about today
? Just say it. Otherwise

, it won't be as enjoyable as it is." "You really are..." Zhen

Yan mumbled, but the smile on her face had completely vanished, and the almost overflowing flush was
gradually fading to ashen.

Liu Xin looked at her quietly. He didn't need to say anything more. Someone like Zhen Yan couldn't possibly still
not understand .

Zhen Yan indeed stood up, slightly adjusted her skirt, then sat down again, letting out a soft, groaning breath. She said,
"It's true I need to talk to you, but it's also true I want to make love to you. You don't need to be so wary."

"What is it?"

Liu Xin asked, trying to keep it simple.

Zhen Yan looked up at him, then lowered her head, saying each word clearly, "I'm pregnant."

Liu Xin remained expressionless. For Zhen Yan, pregnancy wasn't a difficult problem to solve;
she certainly wasn't finished.

A hint of resentment flashed in Zhen Yan's eyes, but she continued in a clear, steady voice, "I
want to go to America to give birth to him. I hope you can help."

So that's it. The reason Zhen Yan was in such a hurry was simply because she was worried about her belly getting bigger over time.
This was indeed an excellent opportunity to get her to agree to his conditions. Liu Xin felt much more relaxed. "
How to help?"

His straightforwardness surprised Zhen Yan somewhat. Her face immediately filled with hope. "If...
after thinking it over , the best way would be for you and me to register our marriage, and then
I can get a divorce after I give birth in the US and get my green card."

Without even thinking, Liu Xin answered decisively, "No. Are there any other options?"

Zhen Yan's face fell. "This... I don't quite understand. What's your opinion? Should we contact the school
or a company? Which is faster?"

"Neither is fast."

Liu Xin pondered, "The only way is to go there first with a tourist, business, or official passport, and then we can talk about it after the baby is born.
However, this will make your future travel procedures more complicated."

"Can't we only contact schools next year?"

"There might be an opportunity in the second half of the year, but you can't wait that long."

"What about contacting companies to find work?"

"It would take at least three months. I'm afraid that's too late."

Zhen Yan's expression froze, and after a long while, she stammered, "You... really can't have a fake marriage with me?"

"No. No discussion."

Liu Xin remained resolute.

"Then... okay. Please help me contact companies first. I'm so thin, if it's quick, it might be able to cover up."

Liu Xin nodded, feeling that it was time to state his conditions, so he smiled and asked, "What's in
it ?"

Zhen Yan had obviously already thought of her answer. "You won't have
to pay for , okay?"

Liu Xin felt a wave of disappointment. He had thought he had the upper hand and could easily force her to agree to his
conditions, but he hadn't expected her to come up with such a surprising move, disrupting his plans. No! He couldn't let this
opportunity . As Liu Xin pondered, she feigned concern and asked, "Can you afford it yourself? You're having
a baby , which is a considerable expense in the US."

"That's none of your concern,"

Zhen Yan replied casually, though she couldn't hide the smugness in her eyes. She didn't really want to hide it.
Gaining the upper hand with Liu Xin was truly a gratifying thing. She
'd finally gotten her turn, and only after painfully giving up the fastest route abroad. If she weren't worried that Liu Xin would get angry and not seriously help her contact
businesses, she would have burst into laughter.

The sudden turn of events annoyed Liu Xin, and her words involuntarily carried a hint of gritted teeth.
"And what about the sexual services you've provided me? When will it end?"

Zhen Yan asked without changing her expression. "Whatever you want, until you think I'm old and faded, and not worth your time."

With that, she finally couldn't help but smile.

Liu Xin, however, failed to grasp the meaning behind her smile and continued relentlessly, "Since you
don't need me to provide for your living and study expenses, you can just hide in America. Do you think I'd ask the FBI to issue a warrant for your
arrest?"

"Haha... I promise..."

Before she could finish, Zhen Yan quickly shut her mouth. Provoking Liu Xin excessively was definitely not a
good thing.

But Liu Xin still realized her lapse in composure from her sudden laughter and quickly regained her composure, sitting
quietly . Damn! Looks like today was really exhausting. Despite all her precautions, she still managed to slip up. If
she didn't quickly find a way to recover some of the lost points, it would be difficult to control her in the future. Thinking of this,
Liu Xin cleared her throat and asked in a deep voice, "Whose child is this?"

Zhen Yan hesitated for a moment before saying, "This doesn't seem to be your business."

"It could be mine, how can it not be my business!"

"Even if it's yours, it's still none of your business. This is my child,"

Zhen Yan said solemnly.

She clearly cared deeply about this child; perhaps it was her last chance to have children. Such a
trump card shouldn't be wasted. Thinking this, Liu Xin's expression gradually calmed. "If it's not
mine, then it's Xiao Sen's. Hehe..."

"Don't talk nonsense, I have no relationship with Vice Dean Xiao."

"Then who else could it be?"

Liu Xin leaned forward, pressing for an answer. Perhaps there really was a third, a fourth, or even many more; otherwise, she
wouldn't have the money to live in America. Although he had given her many gifts, he rarely gave her money directly; Xiao Sen would only give her a small allowance
at most .

Sensing that Liu Xin had no intention of taking the child, Zhen Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "
Anyway, it's not yours, why worry so much?"

He was indeed too lazy to bother with such trivial matters. Even if it were his own child, it would be an illegitimate offspring, not
worth fighting her for. But, if she wouldn't even acknowledge her relationship with Xiao Sen, how could he propose
a deal? Pressuring her too much might put him at a disadvantage.

Damn it! "Let's talk about it next time. Anyway, I still have the trump card in my hands, why rush?" Liu Xin
suddenly didn't want to continue this mess with Zhen Yan. However, he was also unwilling to let her leave so triumphantly. Thinking
of this, Liu Xin stood up and smiled faintly. He said, "Alright then. I won't worry about it."

After saying that, he walked over, grabbed Zhen Yan, carried her in his arms, and turned to walk towards the bedroom.

Liu Xin's sudden display of force surprised Zhen Yan. But she tried to resist from both sides, but she still couldn't get rid of those
two thin, hard arms. She could only let her body go limp and ask, "What are you going to do?"

"What else can I do?"

Liu Xin kicked open the bedroom door and asked back, "Didn't you miss me? I can't let you come
all this way nothing."

"You... I don't want to anymore, okay? Put me down."

He threw Zhen Yan hard onto the bed and then said, "You don't want to, but I do, okay?"

After saying that, he chuckled evilly and began to undress.

The sound of rain outside suddenly intensified. In the bedroom, with the doors and windows tightly shut and the air conditioner off, the faint, musty
smell grew even stronger. In the dim light, it seemed as if damp dust was rising from the bedspread, forcing
the speechless Zhen Yan to squint.

Liu Xin quickly stripped naked, pressed down on her, and swiftly forced his way into her body.

The already dried vulva caused Liu Xin a sharp pain, but he still forced himself in.
Fortunately , the familiar vagina was still moist and warm. Liu Xin breathed a slight sigh of relief, straightened his body, lifted Zhen Yan
's legs, and began to thrust deeply.

Zhen Yan helplessly endured the burning pain of being forcibly penetrated, a sense of bewilderment washing
over , rarely relying on brute force in bed, but rather on meticulous
foreplay and prolonged caresses. What was wrong with him today? Not only was there no foreplay or caresses, but he
hadn't even fully removed her halter-neck dress, leaving it pulled up to her chest. Was he truly consumed by lust, or was he deliberately torturing her,
perhaps even intending to abort the child?

Zhen Yan finally began to worry. Although she had always failed to abort the child this way before,
even with intense, almost perverse methods, the fetuses always stubbornly insisted on taking her to the hospital. But this time,
she had decided to give birth to the child; she couldn't allow herself to face the danger of miscarriage.

"Please... be gentle, okay?"

Zhen Yan pleaded softly, the burning pain that had just lingered between her thighs now seeming to spread to her
chest.

Liu Xin grinned wickedly, not answering, continuing to slam her round, delicate buttocks against him with a resounding thud. Although he didn't
like this rough way of making love, and his own hips were beginning to ache, Zhen Yan's panic and pleas
stirred a strange pleasure within him. His penis grew thicker and harder, seemingly ready to
pierce Zhen Yan's delicate abdomen at any moment. This had never happened before. Human beings' long-standing animalistic instincts
clearly had a stronger ability to control their bodies than his reason. Realizing this, Liu Xin
shook Zhen Yan's smooth, delicate legs even more frantically, as if he wanted to release all the energy he had held back the night before
onto her.

Zhen Yan finally couldn't help but groan. There was little pain in her groans; instead, it seemed more like she was
enjoying Liu Xin's wildness. The lingering, oppressive heat in the stagnant air had enveloped her;
the had spread evenly throughout her body during the violent tremors, slowly subsiding into a
tingling, numb, and itchy sensation. It was this gradually seeping heat into her body, and the tingling, itchy sensation gathering in her head,
that caused Zhen Yan to lose her senses, almost forgetting the unborn child in her womb.

She suddenly felt that everything happening here and now was a deliberate arrangement of a shameless fate. She hadn't liked
Liu Xin, who was excessively gentle in bed, and had often secretly mocked his lack of masculinity. Unexpectedly,
on this day when she needed gentleness, Liu Xin had inexplicably acted like a man. Did this damned
God also want to kill my child? No, she couldn't endure this any longer. Perhaps soon
she would be overwhelmed by an uncontrollable surge of sexual desire. No! She couldn't let them succeed!

Zhen Yan struggled several times, but with her body weak, she couldn't break free from the arms' grip.
She could only raise her voice and plead again, "I...I'm pregnant, please...don't do this..."

Liu Xin stopped, asking casually, "What? Is this bad for the pregnancy?" *

You know perfectly well what I mean, don't you?* Zhen Yan cursed inwardly, but dared not be careless with her words.
"Yes, it's best not to have sex during the first three months of pregnancy, it's easy to miscarry."

Liu Xin shook off her legs. "Then why did you come to provoke me?"

"I..."

Zhen Yan paused, carefully choosing her words, "I didn't expect you to be so capable today."

Liu Xin felt a surge of pride, and his desire to torment Zhen Yan diminished considerably. Besides, he could no longer
pretend to be ignorant; getting rid of the child wouldn't benefit him, so there was no need to push her too far. Thinking of this,
Liu Xin slowly lay down on the bed and said calmly, "It's good that you know how tough it is! Don't try to play tricks on me in the future."

Zhen Yan replied repeatedly, "Yes, yes."

Suddenly realizing something was amiss, she quickly added, "I never tried to play any tricks on you."

"Didn't you?"

"No. Really, I didn't."

Liu Xin turned around, looking at the lingering blush on her face, then staring into her eyes. "Okay,
then let me ask you, do you prefer a gentle man or a rough man during sex?"

Zhen Yan looked at him questioningly, then lowered her head and answered, "I like both. Gentle is comfortable, rough is exciting."

"Was today exciting enough?"

"Yes, more than enough."

"Did you enjoy it?"

Seeing that his questions were getting increasingly strange, Zhen Yan pondered and answered, "Very enjoyable. If it weren't for the fear of affecting the child, I...
"

Liu Xin suddenly interrupted her. "Xiao Sen is the rough type, isn't he?"

"Xiao Sen?"

Why was he suddenly so interested in Xiao Sen? Zhen Yan was secretly surprised, but her face remained expressionless.
"How would I know what type of man he is?"

"Do you and Xiao Sen have any ambiguous relationship?"

Zhen Yan answered without hesitation, "No, really no."

She had just said she wouldn't play tricks, but she immediately started being dishonest again. Damn it! Liu Xin cursed inwardly, but there was nothing he could do. He
could only lie back down on the bed and say slowly, "You've had your fun, but what about me?"

After saying that, he shook his still erect penis with his hand.

"I... I'll help you with my mouth, okay?"

Liu Xin groaned, lay back, and closed his eyes.

In the warm embrace, the guy who was all bark and no bite quickly lost his armor and slumped down.

This woman really put in the effort; she was adept at all the ways to please a man. It was only because
he didn't like her overly thin figure that he could resist her temptation. If it were anyone else,
eight or nine out of ten would have been easily captured by her. Moreover, her intelligence and wit were exceptional. If possible,
it was best not to become her enemy. Liu Xin thought sleepily, feeling increasingly that Zhen Yan
was not to be underestimated . He forced his eyes open and said in a gentle voice, "I want to sleep. You take a shower and then
go back."

"Okay,"

Zhen Yan replied, gently climbing out of bed, turning on the air conditioner, going out, and closing the door.

In a daze, Liu Xin felt a little cold, so he got up to find something to cover himself with, but after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find anything
. All the cabinets were empty. Looking back at the bed, there was only a bare floor, and that wretched
air conditioner just wouldn't stop running. Helpless, Liu Xin could only try to move his body, but after a while, it still didn't work;
he was cold to the bone. In a panic, he simply started running, and the faster he ran, the faster he ran, until he reached the outside,
where he gradually felt a little warmer.

There was no one on the street, not a single person, and certainly no cars. Yet it was still cold, seemingly even colder than inside
the house . "It's probably the wind," Liu Xin thought, and decided to keep running. He eventually turned onto
the North Ring Road.

The empty North Ring Road stretched silently westward. Liu Xin was tired, but dared not stop, for the wind was picking up, and
if he stopped, he feared he would freeze to death on the ground in an instant. He didn't want to turn into a tree, so he could only run.

Just as he was wondering when he would reach the end, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared on the peak of a wild mountain to the north. Liu Xin then
noticed that the entire sky was gray, almost blackish gray, an endless expanse of gray, without any variation in shade.
And that glimmer of light shone within this blackish gray, gradually growing larger, like a newly opened pear blossom. Liu Xin looked
down and saw a hole in the wire mesh by the roadside, so he crawled through and began to climb the mountain.

He scrambled to the mountaintop like lightning, and the newly opened pear blossom was still there. Liu Xin happily picked it and held it in his hands. But
in the blink of an eye, the blossom had withered and rotted, resembling a lump of chewed-up flesh.
Liu Xin panicked immediately, his arm trembling as he tried to shake it off. But he couldn't shake it off; it was as if it had grown into
his palm. He pulled his hand back to examine it, wondering how to cut it off, and was horrified to discover that it was extending many tentacles
like . The tentacles crawled along his arm, covering his entire body and tightly
enveloping him.

His body immediately began to heat up again, growing hotter and hotter until he could barely breathe. Liu Xin struggled desperately,
tripped over something, and tumbled down the hillside. He rolled
all , seemingly controlled by something, spinning several times before finally stopping at a coffee shop beneath the Bank of China Tower.

Behind the large glass window, laughing wildly with his teeth bared, was none other than Xiao Sen, his face contorted in a ferocious grin.
Among the group of people standing beside him, smiling silently, were Zhen Yan, An Zhao, Luo Han, Ling Chen, and even Xu
Hui…

Liu Xin woke up with a start, yelling “Ah!” The bedroom was unusually dark, the rain was still falling outside, and he
felt sticky all over. The alarm clock on the bedside table pointed to 10:05.

After a quick hot shower, Liu Xin went to the study and turned on his computer.

Soon, messages from Xiao Xue began popping up one after another. “Senior brother, are you back?”

“Senior brother, come back soon!”

“Senior brother, why aren’t you back yet, hmph!”…

Liu Xin immediately smiled with relief. At times like this, at many times, and perhaps, at all times,
Xiao Xue could always bring him—and only Xiao Xue could bring him—absolute peace and ease.

“I’m back. Junior sister, are you there? Hehe…”

After a long while, Xiao Xue suddenly appeared. "Yes, yes. Senior, you're finally back! Hehe
..."

"Yeah, just got back. How are the professor and his wife?"

"Dad went to Guangzhou for a meeting and hasn't come back yet, but they should be fine. Mom's fine too."

"Are your studies alright?"

"No problem, my ballet and piano are going very well. Hmph!"

Liu Xin couldn't help but laugh again, but still pretended to be confused and asked, "Hmph what? Did I upset you again
?"

"You still want to talk? You're obviously just being mischievous, asking about my parents, asking about my studies, but not about me?
Hmph!"

"Ha...aren't you just sitting here chatting with me? Why would I ask you?" "

I still have to ask. If I don't ask, it means you don't care about me, love me, help me, or care about me. Hehe..."

"Okay, okay. I'll ask, I'll ask, how have you been these past few days, Miss? Eating, drinking, and using the toilet, everything's alright, right
?"

"You're so annoying! Hmph!"

Before Liu Xin could reply, Xiao Xue's video call request was already displayed in the middle of the screen.

Looking at her radiant smile, Liu Xin seemed to forget all her troubles.
