He broke his vows for her, and a tycoon descended to earth for love.

It's so dark, and a bit cold...

The air around her seemed to freeze. Siyi felt as if she were lying on a cold floor, her hands tied behind her back, and a black cloth covering her eyes.

She couldn't see anything clearly around her. As her body gradually regained sensation, she realized that the back of her neck was numb and painful. Her dry lips moved slightly, and an instinctive groan escaped from her throat.

"She's awake!"

Immediately, a male voice came from behind, followed by a series of hurried footsteps. Siyi, with her sharp ears, could tell that there was more than one person.

Sure enough, a strong smell of alcohol wafted over, and just by feeling their breathing, you could tell there were definitely several people there.

Siyi instinctively held her breath and frowned. She disliked the strong, invasive scent. She tried to struggle to get up, but her body was too weak. Immediately, another hoarse male voice entered her ears.

"Heh heh, what are you struggling for? Do you think you can escape like this?"

Siyi's heart sank slightly. She felt that the voice sounded familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it before. As a lawyer, she sometimes had a keen intuition about certain things and people, so she was certain that she had heard the voice somewhere before, but she just couldn't remember where.

She remained silent. Upon waking from her unconsciousness, she realized she had been kidnapped. Before figuring out the situation, she told herself she had to stay calm and conserve her strength to escape on her own.

"This girl is pretty calm."

Suddenly, a hand reached out and grabbed Siyi's chin, forcing her to lift her head. She pressed her lips tightly together, the smell of alcohol making her feel nauseous. "I thought she would scream when she woke up, but she's not making a sound. Is she mute?"

Immediately another male voice followed, his tone laced with sarcasm, "Pretentious! She's just a woman, let's see how tough she is."

He paused, then spat, "Damn it, anyway, the boss said today that we can do whatever we want with her. Once we've had our fun, we can just kill her."

"Aren't we going to notify Jiang Yan to come back?" someone greedily chimed in. "Since Jiang Yan is so rich, we should extort some money from her too!"

"Are you crazy?! Jiang Yan Hui is rich, and the Jiang family has a young master! We're sure to get our share of the benefits. Besides, do you dare take Jiang Yan Hui's money? If he finds out his woman is here, none of us will survive!"

Siyi felt a throbbing pain in her temple.

Jiang Yan comes back?

So it turns out that Jiang Yan was kidnapped because of her?

Wait, what did that person mean by saying something else? What did they mean by saying Jiang Yan has money, and the Jiang family has a young master...?

The Jiang family has another young master, Jiang Yansen?

Jiang Yansen?

Could it be... that Jiang Yansen orchestrated this kidnapping?

It's not impossible. Jiang Yanhui and Jiang Yansen have never gotten along, so now Jiang Yansen is going to use her as a scapegoat?

But that doesn't make sense. If he captured me to blackmail Jiang Yan, why would he have his own men kill me?

As a lawyer, she was always very cautious in her thinking. At this moment, too many questions were swirling in her mind. However, before she could figure out these doubts, she suddenly felt a jolt. Although her eyes were covered by a black blindfold, she clearly felt someone pouring a bucket of water on her face.

Although it wasn't the cold winter, it was the season of transition between spring and autumn, and she was only wearing a thin shirt. Even a basin of cold water poured on her would make her shiver. She subconsciously gasped for air, but in doing so, she inhaled quite a bit of cold water and choked.

Someone on the sidelines was laughing in a perverted way, "Well, she's made a sound now, hasn't she? Damn it, I'm going to make this little wench scream properly in a bit. I don't believe I can't make her cry for her parents!"

"Damn! Jiang Yanhui's woman is only so capable. I thought she was so powerful, but she trembles at the sight of a bucket of water?"

Siyi was so angry that her head throbbed with pain, and the breath she was holding in her throat felt like it was on fire.

He opened his mouth as if to shout, but when he did, his voice was hoarse: "Why don't you just pour a bucket of water on yourself? Let's see if you'll still tremble!"

Probably not expecting her to speak suddenly, she let out a "Yo-ho!" The black cloth strip was soaked with water, giving it a slightly shiny appearance. Siyi vaguely saw a figure squatting down in front of her. "This little chick finally spoke! She's so fierce right off the bat. I like it, she's hot enough. Brother, are you ready to go?"

"hold on."

The man seemed a bit cautious. "The boss said it's easier to get things done under the cover of darkness. I'll go check if the deposit has been received. Go out and buy some food, hurry up, damn it, I'm starving, I won't have the energy to deal with her later."

The black dots looked like congealed hemp. Immediately, someone responded in unison. Then, Siyi heard someone seem to run out. A moment later, she heard the sound of a large iron gate being pushed open, but before she could hear clearly, she heard someone next to her making a phone call. This time, she clearly heard the other person call out a name.

"Young Master Sen, um, I just wanted to confirm with you whether the deposit has been paid? We've already got the person."

.........

Siyi couldn't hear what was said after that; the person with the phone was probably walking further and further away. But she heard the phrase "Young Master Sen" very clearly.

Who else in the entire City A is called "Young Master Sen"? Especially someone connected to Jiang Yan Hui...

Is it really Jiang Yansen?

Siyi shivered instinctively. The icy water seeped into her skin, making her clothes cling tightly to her body, but it only made her mind clearer.

No, she can't just sit here and wait to die; she has to find a way to escape!

Whoever kidnapped her, she can only find out the truth if she escapes.

What did that person just say?

The night was dark and the wind was high...

So it must still be daytime now, and he even sent someone to buy food.

She still has some time; she needs to figure out how to untie the things binding her hands first.

-

Inside Jiang Yanhui's exclusive suite at Jinzuo.

Three men sat on the sofa. Yu Chengfeng, wearing a pink shirt, sat at the front, one hand supporting his forehead, the other fiddling with his phone. His thumb occasionally brushed against the darkened screen, which would then light up again. A woman's photo flashed on the screensaver. He squinted at the picture unconsciously, his eyes flickering with an unreadable mix of emotions.

Sitting opposite him was Leng Xiyu, who had been running errands all day. He picked up a wine glass with a dissatisfied expression and drank the liquid in it in one gulp. He probably still felt it wasn't enough, so he picked up the red wine next to him, filled it up, and drank it all.

"Yu, isn't this the bottle of red wine that Yan Hui refused to take out before? You actually dared to drink it so heavily, you've got some nerve."

The man sitting between the two men wore a black shirt and white casual trousers. Even seated, he appeared to be at least 185 cm tall. His features were striking, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses perched on his straight nose. His deep-set eyes, with heavy double eyelids, conveyed a cold and distant air even through the lenses. As he spoke, his long, slender fingers with distinct knuckles tapped lightly on the armrest of the sofa, yet his entire demeanor exuded an inexplicable femininity.

"I don't think he has time to care whether I drink his precious wine or not. His darling is no longer this wine." Leng Xiyu scoffed, completely unconvinced when he thought of Jiang Yanhui's anxious look at Ye Siyi.

The man shifted his posture, elegantly crossing his legs. He slowly adjusted his glasses and said with interest, "Oh," "He's changed his sweetheart now? Heh, that's interesting. So, all this fuss about calling us all here today is for his sweetheart?"

"I told you, Acheng is the smartest among us, you can't argue with that." Leng Xiyu snapped his fingers and grinned slyly.

The man called Ah Cheng's face immediately darkened. "I told you, you're not allowed to call me Ah Cheng."

Leng Xiyu, oblivious to the danger, yelled "Damn it!" and said, "You gave me a name but you won't let me call it that?!"

Lu Fengcheng narrowed his eyes, remaining silent. He simply adjusted his glasses, then pursed his lips and let out two short whistles. The next second, Leng Xiyu froze in his pouring motion, dropping the wine bottle and leaping off the sofa without a care for his image. "Damn it! Lu Fengcheng, you—you son of a bitch, get those two things out of here right now!"

At that moment, under the sofa where Leng Xiyu was sitting, a slender, fluorescent green snake and a pure white snake as thick as a bowl both raised their heads and excitedly flicked their tongues at him.

It's obvious that this is Lu Fengcheng's pet.

Leng Xiyu's expression was absolutely priceless. His tall frame shrank back somewhat comically to the side of the sofa, inwardly groaning at his bad choice of friends. Damn it, who's so perverted to keep a pet and play with this kind of thing?

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, Young Master Lu, please wake up! I promise I won't call those two words again. Get this thing away from here!" He begged for forgiveness without any principles, while looking at Yu Chengfeng. The guy was still staring at his phone. He was so angry he almost jumped up and down, then turned his anger on Yu Chengfeng, yelling, "Damn it, Yu Chengfeng, you're practically staring your phone to death! What the hell did I do to deserve such terrible friends!"

Leng Xiyu chuckled slowly, his gaze still fixed on his phone screen. "I've already told you not to cross Young Master Lu's bottom line. Yu, you never learn your lesson. You should let Xiaobai and Xiaoqing kiss your body."

Lu Fengcheng raised his eyebrows, letting his two snakes raise their heads towards Leng Xiyu, the curve of his lips indicating that he strongly agreed with Yu Chengfeng's words.

Leng Xiyu was terrified of this cold-blooded animal and was about to beg for mercy again when the door to the room was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

Jiang Yan came in from outside with a gloomy expression.
