Reborn as Zhao Ruilong of Handong, I will defy fate.

late at night.

A crisp cell phone ringtone suddenly sounded.

The sound was continuous and extremely jarring.

"Is this your phone? Turn it off right now, it's so noisy."

With her hair disheveled and her skin flushed, Lu Yike was languid and weak, completely lacking in energy.

At this moment, all she wanted to do was sleep.

"That ringing sound is definitely from a Nokia phone. It's your call, answer it!"

Zhao Ruilong reached out and groped on the bedside table.

After receiving the ringing and vibrating cell phone, he answered the call and held it to Lu Yike's ear.

"Xiao Ke, where are you?"

"Huh? Mom?"

Lu Yike perked up a little.

"Where are you?"

"I'm out here, I won't be back tonight, you should get some sleep! Bye!"

"Wait a moment!"

After shouting, Wu Xinyi hurriedly asked:

"Where are you right now? Do you even know how much trouble you've caused?"

"Mom, what are you saying? What do you mean I've caused trouble? What trouble have I caused? Have I broken the law?"

Lu Yike retorted irritably.

“You didn’t break the law, but do you know that Liang Wei was so angry with you that he ran a red light and got into a car accident, and he’s still in critical condition?”

"What does his car accident have to do with me? Why don't you ask him? What does it have to do with him that I went to a hotel with Zhao Ruilong? Why should he let the police arrest us?"

"Then you shouldn't have gone and made things worse, right? Do you know that Liang Hai, the eldest son of the Liang family, got so angry at the hospital that he smashed his phone and cursed at people, then got into a fight and stabbed someone with a pen?"

"What do you mean I shouldn't? Do you think I deserve to be bullied? You're afraid of offending the Liang family and Liang Qunfeng, but I'm not. Besides, I'm your daughter. Whose side are you on?"

After three consecutive rhetorical questions, Lu Yikeren perked up.

After questioning her, she immediately followed up with:

"What did you just say? Liang Hai got into a fight at the hospital and stabbed someone with a pen? Is that true?"

Wu Xinyi gave a heavy "hmm".

"He assaulted someone in broad daylight, right in the hospital emergency room. The police have arrested him, and the injured person is still receiving treatment."

"Great, great! That's wonderful!"

Lu Yike suddenly sat up.

Then came a tearing, excruciating pain that made her gasp and immediately lie down.

She casually pulled up the blanket to cover up the boundless spring scenery.

"The Liang family is completely finished tonight!"

"Running a red light caused a car accident, and the outcome was uncertain."

"Anyone who intentionally injures someone in public will definitely go to jail."

"Liang Shuji, who has worked in the political and legal system for two or three decades, has truly raised two excellent sons!"

"If he gets so angry he dies tonight, then..."

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Wu Xinyi retorted angrily, "No matter what, he is the current Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Department of our Handong Province!"

"so what?"

Lu Yike switched to holding the phone with her left hand.

He turned slightly to the side and exchanged a smile with Zhao Ruilong.

Being so close, Zhao Ruilong naturally heard everything.

Knowing that Liang Wei's car accident was quickly publicized and reported will surely infuriate Liang's family.

But unexpectedly, Liang Hai, the eldest brother, was so angry that he broke down.

He smashed his phone, got into arguments, and even stabbed someone with a pen...

That's incredibly creative!

Most people would never imagine that a pen they carry with them could be turned into a weapon of murder.

this moment.

Zhao Ruilong was convinced that the children of the powerful and wealthy were also living, breathing human beings.

Humans have tempers and limits to their patience.

Once the limit is exceeded, a breach in the defenses is inevitable.

“Liang Wei abused his power for personal gain, failing to get the police to arrest me and Zhao Ruilong, but he himself almost got hit and killed. How can you blame me for that?”

"But he works at the Transportation Bureau, yet he knowingly breaks the law and disregards traffic regulations. If the news media wants to report on it, can you blame me?"

"Liang Hai is the director of the Communications Bureau. If he wants to curse and fight in the hospital and end up stabbing someone, that has nothing to do with me, right?"

After asking three more questions in a row, Lu Yike sneered and asked:

"So Mom, what do you mean by calling me in the middle of the night?"

"Could it be that Liang Lu contacted my aunt, and then my aunt contacted you, hoping you would persuade me to do something?"

"But think about it calmly. Can you blame me for how things have turned out this way? Isn't it all the Liang family's fault?"

Wu Xinyi remained silent for a while.

"Then what do you think we should do now?"

"What do you mean, what to do? It's the middle of the night, of course we should sleep! It's the Liang family that's been having these big problems, not ours, so why are you worrying about it?"

"So...so you're really not coming home to sleep tonight?"

"I've already gone to bed at my friend's house, why would I come back?"

"What kind of friend? You didn't actually go to a hotel with Zhao Ruilong, did you?"

"Guess what?"

How would I know if you two were putting on an act tonight?

"If you can't guess, that's fine. Aren't we going to Luzhou tomorrow to celebrate your aunt's husband's birthday? Go to sleep!"

"Be at the bus station by nine o'clock, don't be late!"

"understood!"

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yike casually held the phone up to Zhao Ruilong as a microphone.

"Let me interview you. How do you feel right now? Aren't you feeling incredibly great?"

"Does it feel good?"

Zhao Ruilong suppressed a laugh and asked in return.

"Aren't you happy?"

"At the crucial stage of your father's struggle with Liang Qunfeng, his two sons got into trouble one after another overnight, which will definitely have a negative impact on him, thus greatly increasing your father's chances of being elected."

"Besides... Liang Wei pursued me relentlessly for over a year, trying every trick in the book to please me, but I never agreed to be with him. You've only known me for less than two days, and you've already taken my innocence. Doesn't that make you proud?"

Lu Yike smiled gently, looking at Zhao Ruilong with affection in her eyes.

I don't know if I just didn't pay much attention before, or if I simply didn't observe carefully at all.

Now that their relationship has progressed, she has discovered that Zhao Ruilong is actually quite masculine and handsome.

He had sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, healthy wheat-colored skin, and well-defined muscles.

That alone is enough to make women like it.

Yet, in addition to his confident and swaggering demeanor, he also possesses a touch of roguishness.

So handsome and bad...

Lu Yi is just so adorable.

"What's there to be so smug about? Isn't this all I deserve?"

A boastful statement by Zhao Ruilong.

This immediately filled Lu Yike with shame and anger.

"You shameless bastard! You're really getting the benefit and then acting innocent!"

He was about to punch Zhao Ruilong in the chest.

But Zhao Ruilong grabbed her wrist in one swift motion.

I noticed his gaze was gradually moving downwards...

"What are you looking at? You're so embarrassing!"

"We've already gone this far, what are you still shy about? Besides, weren't you quite outgoing before? Why are you suddenly all shy now?"

"I'm a girl, being shy is my instinct!"

"Let me correct you, you are a woman now!"

"you!!"

Lu Yike playfully punched Zhao Ruilong in embarrassment.

Her face flushed even more from shyness.

Zhao Ruilong lifted Lu Yike's chin.

"Don't worry, as long as I don't tell, no one will know."

Lu Yike glared and said, "Then shouldn't I thank you?"

"I won't thank you with words, I'll repay your kindness with my body!"

Zhao Ruilong's lips curled slightly, his eyes burning with passion.

Overnight, the Liang family suffered a series of misfortunes, and Liang Qunfeng's power was essentially gone.

With such a beautiful and proud woman by my side, how could I not enjoy life to the fullest?

"What? You want me to repay you with my body?"

"No, no, I really can't!"

"It hurt so much to sit up just now, if I do it again I might really die here!"

At this point, Lu Yike suddenly frowned slightly, asking as if interrogating a criminal:

"With your womanizing ways, how many girls have you ruined?"

"What do you mean by 'harming'? Didn't they enjoy it too? Besides, tonight, it was clearly you who harmed me!"

As he spoke, Zhao Ruilong slightly raised his right shoulder.

"Look at the bite marks I got! You still have those bloody teeth marks. Are you a dog? Do you like biting people?"

"Yeah, I was born in 1970, which means I'm a dog in the Chinese zodiac. I'll bite you, I'll bite you to death!!"

"Hey, hey, don't bite my shoulder! I'll teach you to bite somewhere else."

"You bastard, I'm not biting you!"

……

It was almost nine o'clock at Jingzhou Bus Station.

"We're about to board the train in a few minutes, why isn't Lu Yike here yet?"

Wu Huifen glanced at her watch and urged, "..."

"Why don't you give her a call and ask where she is?"

Just as Wu Xinyi took out her phone, she saw a taxi pull up at the entrance.

After getting out of the car, the daughter walked in unhurriedly.

This made Wu Xinyi feel a little strange.

Because of her straightforward personality, her daughter always walks with her head held high and in a brisk manner.

Why are you suddenly acting so ladylike today?

When she came up to her, Wu Xinyi immediately asked:

"Which friend's house are you staying at? Is it far from here? Why are you only arriving now, almost when the bus is about to leave?"

Why are you asking so many questions? I'm not a three-year-old girl anymore! Where's the ticket?

Lu Yike grabbed a ticket and immediately went to queue up to board the train.

Once in the car, I buckled my seatbelt and immediately closed my eyes to catch up on sleep.

The Wu sisters, who followed closely behind and got into the car, exchanged a glance.

"Could she have really gone to a hotel with Zhao Ruilong last night?"
