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

Lu Fengcheng's face was full of anger, but his body was completely numb. He had never been so out of control before. His mood was absolutely terrible. The culprit who was standing by the desk at this moment did not react much to his shouts.

"Xia Ran... Damn it, what did you do to me? You damned woman, hurry up and untie me, did you just stab me with something?"

"What are you yelling about?" The cold female voice was tinged with impatience. Xia Ran frowned and walked over to the man on the sofa who was currently furious. She grabbed his shoulder and flipped him over. "You're speaking with such a strong voice, which means you're not going to die! If you're not going to die, then shut up! Or I'll give you another injection and make sure you can't speak anymore, you believe me?!"

Lu Fengcheng's face turned green with anger!

Who is he? He is Lu Fengcheng, the one who always schemes against others. Who would dare to scheme against him in return? Scheming against him is one thing, but to be lectured and threatened by this woman in such a tone…

He felt as if the world had come crashing down on him, as if the kingdom he had been protecting was being brutally conquered by this woman. He was so angry that he wanted to kill her, but he could only raise his hands in surrender!

This is simply a shame!

"Xia Ran, untie me now, and I might let it go!" He suppressed his raging anger and muttered through gritted teeth, "Hmm? Did you hear me? Untie me, and I absolutely won't hold what happened earlier against you, otherwise..."

"What do you mean by 'no'?" Lu Fengcheng tried to give her a way out, but Xia Ran just wouldn't listen.

She grabbed his shoulders like she was grabbing a giant inflatable doll, flipping him over. Looking at his back, she immediately understood, her tone shifting to one of joy. "Great! I finally know what happened! Heh, Young Master Lu, you've done something good. Alright, now I'll ask you a few questions. Answer them obediently, and I'll forgive you for your earlier harassment."

"What did you say?" He made a suggestive remark to her?

She actually used the word "frivolous" to describe his behavior just now? What about all those things they did every night, embracing naked? Was she going to describe it as rape?!

"Didn't you hear what I said?!" Xia Ran interrupted him impatiently, slapping his shoulder with a loud thud. She crossed her arms, adopting a queen-like posture. "Lu Fengcheng, enough nonsense. If you want me to untie you sooner, you'd better answer a few questions obediently. Otherwise, I'll leave you sitting here alone. But judging from the current situation, you shouldn't die. However, if you end up with some kind of paralysis or erectile dysfunction, don't blame me for not warning you."

"You—! Xia Ran, do you really want me to be impotent?"

Lu Fengcheng's face was gloomy, and the green eyes behind his glasses looked like they wanted to devour someone. If he could move now, Xia Ran would probably be dead very soon. "If I really become impotent, what will happen to your sex life?"

Although Xia Ran wasn't overly conservative, she certainly wasn't outgoing either. In fact, she was rather conservative about relationships between men and women. She was twenty-seven years old, and Lu Fengcheng was the only man in her life. His blunt words made her face flush slightly, but she still forced a smile, refusing to back down, "You don't need to worry about that. There are so many people in the world. Haven't you heard the saying, 'Four-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged men are everywhere'? Do you think only you, Young Master Lu, can satisfy me? You really overestimate yourself!"

"Xia Ran!" Lu Fengcheng's eyes were dark and deep, scrutinizing her like a knife, as if he wanted to tear her apart and devour her until nothing was left. "You dare! You dare to go find another man?"

"What wouldn't I dare to do?!" The man was so angry he was practically ready to tear the roof off, but Xia Ran became even more relaxed. She felt incredibly satisfied riding on this arrogant, cunning, and sinister man. She didn't care what would happen next. With a cold snort, she arrogantly raised her chin. "Lu Fengcheng, stop your nonsense. Maybe many people are afraid of you, but let me tell you, I was able to kill your little white snake five years ago, and five years later I have the ability to... cough, cripple you! So cooperate with me obediently. Do you really want to die with all this talk?"

"Xia Ran, you've got guts!" He swore he would make her beg for mercy, or else he would make her beg for mercy. No, even if she begged for mercy, he would never let this woman go!

Xia Ran, however, had been observing the needle behind her the entire time, completely oblivious to his gritted teeth and murderous intent towards her. She squinted, mentally assessing the force she had just applied—

Actually, she just stumbled upon the perfect opportunity. Lu Fengcheng, that arrogant and self-important guy, was simply too hateful. Not only did he verbally abuse her, but he also dared to lay a hand on her. She wanted to struggle, but she knew that she was no match for his strength. Just then, she touched the silver needles that she had just placed on the desk. Since she was going to find someone to do experiments with anyway, he would be the one!

To everyone's surprise, she actually stuck the needle in the right spot. Of course, she wasn't just randomly sticking it in; the location of the silver needle during the autopsy of the deceased Ying Rui was roughly where Lu Fengcheng was now, but there were some differences. She must have used a lot of force, which is why Lu Fengcheng was immediately unable to move. However, the needle in the deceased Ying Rui's body probably wasn't that deep; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to talk to Si Yi for so long before suddenly becoming paralyzed and falling from the building…

"How do you feel now? Can you move? When I inserted the needle just now, did you feel a tingling sensation all over your body? And then you subconsciously stepped back, and finally couldn't move, right?" Last night she had looked up some medical books, and she had also looked up some information about acupuncture. If her current deduction was correct, then the mystery of the fall from the building was basically solved.

Xia Ran was now asking Lu Fengcheng in a completely professional tone. He was slightly taken aback, but being as clever as he was, he quickly realized what was going on.

This woman, this damned woman, she was using me as a guinea pig?!

"Xia Ran, don't tell me you pricked me with needles and that what you did just now was just for some kind of experiment." Lu Fengcheng's tone was almost certain, but if she dared to openly admit it, he swore that if he could move again, he would devour her alive!

"Do you think I'm just pricking you for fun?"

Great, absolutely fantastic! Absolutely damn good!

"Your experiment was a success, Dr. Xia. Everything you just said is correct. I did have those reactions." The man chuckled darkly. If Xia Ran had listened carefully, she would have heard his teeth chattering as he spoke. "It's such a waste of your talent to just be a forensic doctor. With such a sharp mind and clear thinking, you should call yourself Sherlock Holmes."

Night falls, the city lights come on, and the bustling world of cars and people is dazzling and mesmerizing.

Siyi drifted aimlessly through the bustling streets like a lost soul.

Everything around her seemed to be isolated from her. The information she had seen earlier kept replaying in her mind, and the old voice that she clearly disliked but couldn't shake off at the moment was still clearly echoing in her ears.

—Do you think your father is a good person? He adopted your older brother to cover up his mistakes. Do you really think your older brother is some policeman's orphan?!

—Back then, the police wanted to find something against me, so they used a honey trap to break me. But it failed. The undercover agent ended up willingly following me, abandoning the so-called light. As a result, your father's good friend simply turned the tables, setting fire to the woman's entire family and framing me. Your father, Ye Xiongming, was the one who tried this case. They went to great lengths to convict me; what methods didn't they use? It's just a pity. Perhaps it's true that heaven sees what people do; despite their cunning, I still managed to win the appeal.

—Ye Siyi, your biological mother caused my precious daughter to live a lifetime of pain, and your biological father almost put me in jail and made me lose someone important. Do you know who that important person is? Haha, you'll never guess. Your older brother, Ye Zhenghao, do you know who he is to me? Look at this information for yourself! Isn't it fascinating?

"Let me tell you, a woman like you was never meant to be with Yan Hui. Don't think you can act with impunity just because you've given him two children. Even if I kill you right now, I won't consider you innocent. Who told you to be Ye Xiongming and Guan Fengying's daughter? I'm already being lenient by not making you pay for their debts. I'm only giving you one choice: take your daughter and get far away from Yan Hui, and never see him again!"

—This is the only chance. Otherwise, even if it means we both perish, I will never let you be with Yan Hui!

—I've already prepared your plane ticket. I'll only give you one day to consider it. Of course, I can tell you very clearly that even if you can get away from Ying Rui's case, if you still don't know what's good for you and refuse to leave, next time it won't be as simple as the death of an outsider. Maybe I'll take your daughter's life directly!
