After breaking off the engagement, she became the CEO's favorite

Initially, Shen Xiling didn’t have the shadow of the “president” he is now.

Ever since his father died in an accident, his mother Zhang Yuzhi was determined to take the young Shen Xiling away from the Shen family, and his grandparents did not object.

In their eyes, it has been determined who is the mastermind behind this incident.

Grandma Cai Wenshu's attitude on this issue is the most radical and resolute.

After his father passed away, the young Shen Xiling accidentally witnessed an argument between his grandparents.

"Look, these are all good sons you brought back...Xi, Ximing is so young..." Cai Wenshu burst into tears.

"There is no evidence yet..." Shen Xilu couldn't help choking up, and he said good things as if he didn't believe them himself.

After a while, Cai Wenshu finally came out of her emotions temporarily.

She wiped away the tears from her eyes and tried to keep her tone calm.

"I don't care whether you have any evidence or not."

"Shen Nanye is the murderer who killed your son! I don't care what your Shen family wants to do, but if he dares to hurt Xiling..."

"Look, I don't want his life!"

Shen Xiling hid in the corner, feeling cold all over. Sadness and fear made him tremble uncontrollably.

He thought of the second uncle who always brought him new toys, always told jokes with him, and took him and Shen Beiyu to play together...

How could he have killed his own father? ! How could he have killed Uncle Lu and Aunt An Ning? !

For the first time, Shen Xiling's world collapsed silently.

He once asked Zhang Yuzhi if she also thought it was Shen Nanye who did it.

Zhang Yuzhi curled up the corners of her mouth, but there was no smile in her eyes.

"Xiling, the answer is not important."

“Interests can turn a good person into a bad person, or make a bad person pretend to be a good person.”

“That’s the most chilling part.”

From then on, this incident became a huge stone, weighing heavily on Shen Xiling's heart.

Under the close protection of her mother and grandparents, Shen Xiling successfully became a student of the Chinese Department of Nancheng University.

He was a senior at that time, and his grandfather hoped that he would inherit the Shen family's business, but his mother and grandmother hoped that he would never set foot in trouble.

Shen Xiling was struggling. He didn't reject it, but he was still afraid of this unknown world of fame and fortune.

That world of fame and fortune has already claimed three lives, so would it really let me off the hook?

"Xi Ling, don't make decisions based on inertia. Listen more, watch more, and collect more information before making a decision."

“It’s not about not making the wrong choice, it’s about not regretting it.”

So, in a daze, he followed his grandfather to a small cocktail party, and of course, inevitably met Shen Nanye.

This man has a gentle smile but eyes like a venomous snake.

When he saw Shen Xiling, his eyes were filled with surprise.

"Xiling, I thought you had no interest in the family business, but I didn't expect to see you today."

Shen Xiling just felt his stomach churning.

"Uncle, you are too kind. It's just that grandma didn't come, so I attended on her behalf."

After saying that, he couldn't wait to find an excuse to leave, rushed into the bathroom like mad, and started vomiting violently.

How disgusting, he thought.

How could someone be so sweet-mouthed but so vicious? He was the murderer of my father, so how could he still talk to me as if nothing had happened?

Just then, a strange figure approached Shen Xiling.

The next second, Shen Xiling felt a pungent smell entering his nose, and he lost consciousness instantly. When he opened his eyes again, it was dark all around him, his head was dizzy, and a damp smell came from his nose.

Soon he found himself locked in a small dark room.

The door was locked, there were no lights or windows, and he tried to call for help, but there was no response.

Shen Xiling felt desperate.

A kind of despair that he knew clearly who had locked him up here, but had no way to question him or make him pay the price for his actions.

This is a world of fame and fortune, and I am still like this even though I have just entered it for the first time. If...

"Knock, knock, knock", there was a knock on the door.

"Is there someone locked in there..." A sweet and childish female voice came from outside the door, and it sounded more like she was talking to herself.

Shen Xiling did not respond.

She knocked a few more times, mumbling "Am I hallucinating?" Shen Xiling then said:

"Stop knocking."

"So there's someone here!" the girl said in surprise, "Were you the one calling for help just now?"

"What if there is? Can you open the door?"

"Wait a minute," the girl was not angry at Shen Xiling's tone, "I'll go lend you the key."

"Forget it..." Shen Xiling refused coldly, "Go out, there's nothing good about going out."

"Don't be like this. There will be fireworks to watch later. If you don't come out now, you won't be able to see them."

Before Shen Xiling could refuse, the girl's footsteps gradually faded away. Soon, she came running back with a bunch of keys.

The door lock that locked Shen Xiling was easily opened by the girl with a "click".

But before he could say thank you, a voice of "Catch the thief" came from a distance.

The girl nervously said, "Please help me return the key," and then ran away in a hurry.

At this moment, with a "bang", brilliant fireworks lit up the night sky, as well as the girl's gradually receding figure and her farewell look back.

For the first time, Shen Xiling felt his heart beating faster.

And the second time...

When Shen Xiling first entered the Shen family, he was determined to make progress with the support of his grandfather, but he was also immature and was framed by others.

After what seemed like a very normal business interaction, Shen Xiling suddenly felt dizzy, with an evil fire running wild in his body.

"Brother, are you okay?" Shen Beiyu held his arm with concern, "Shall I take you to rest for a while?"

Shen Xiling's limbs were weak and he was taken to a room by Shen Beiyu.

He just felt his body getting hotter and hotter, and his rationality seemed to be burned to ashes by this evil fire.

At this moment, a soft hum came from my ears...

Shen Xiling could no longer hold back and instinctively moved closer to that soft spot.

He was greedy for the smooth skin on his palm, the soft touch...

"don't want......"

The sound suddenly woke him up.

He will never forget this sound, just as he will never forget the night when the fireworks exploded.

Gradually regaining his senses, he saw the girl beneath him had watery eyes, rosy cheeks, and lips as smooth as pearls, as if she was secretly expecting something.

His heart tightened, and the next second he suddenly jumped out of bed, strode into the bathroom, and locked the door tightly.

As the evil fire in the body disappeared bit by bit, the effect of the medicine gradually faded.

Shen Xiling looked at himself in the mirror with cold eyes.
