Breakup and still want to be beautiful on your own? A crazy tycoon seduces and climbs to the top.

The night was cool and still, and the small garden was completely dark, making it incredibly tranquil.

Because of the trees and flowers, no one in the glass enclosure behind them noticed what was happening at the pool.

An Ying knelt on the ground, feeling dizzy, her hands trembling as she gripped the edge of the pool.

Suddenly, a large hand grabbed her hair from behind and shoved her head into the pool water.

An Ying almost thought she was going to be submerged in water, but the hand suddenly stopped.

The smell of swimming pool disinfectant was overwhelming.

An Ying felt nauseous.

I don't know if it's the pungent smell of the disinfectant or the traumatic memory.

When she was twelve years old, she almost killed someone by the school swimming pool, an incident that made headlines at the time.

As a result, she was bullied by the entire school and was eventually expelled.

That year, An Weiping had no choice but to move his entire family, including An Ying, away from the southern part of the city.

This incident is a wound in her heart, a wound she doesn't want others to know about.

An Xiaoxiao's sharp and cold voice came from behind.

She gripped An Ying's hair tightly, her long fingernails scratching across An Ying's scalp.

An Ying hissed in pain.

"Sister, weren't you feeling quite smug at the banquet just now?"

"Aren't you very eloquent? You deliberately brought up the stray dog ​​issue to make others dislike me and make Lu Qiyao suspicious of me?"

"You think that just because you've latched onto Fu Chengli, I won't dare to do anything to you? Fu Chengli just doesn't know your true colors."

"At such a young age, she tried to seduce her teacher, and when that failed, she turned around and falsely accused her. She deliberately stabbed the teacher, almost killing her, and even gouged out her right eye. Sister, how cruel you are!"

Do you think Fu Chengli would protect such a filthy woman?

"Is it you who's more important, or the Fu family's reputation? What do you think he'll choose?"

An Ying gritted her teeth, suppressing the urge to vomit, and almost squeezed out the words: "That beast brought it on himself. I acted in self-defense. Besides, I didn't injure his eyes."

An Xiaoxiao laughed even louder: "Huh? Who would believe that!"

"After I told Lu Qiyao about this, he even personally investigated it with the Nancheng Evening News. Look at his attitude towards you now."

An Ying felt a chill run down her spine.

Lu Qiyao knew about this too?! When...?

An Xiaoxiao seemed to have guessed An Ying's doubts and said smugly, "It was the night you had a big fight with him and flew to Nancheng that I talked to him in bed. Sister, aren't you a top student who graduated from Beicheng University? Is your IQ not up to par?"

"Don't worry, I'll go tell Fu Chengli right away. Guess what his expression will be when he finds out about all these disgusting things you've done? Lu Qiyao's face was really ugly when he found out!"

An Ying closed her eyes and felt her heart suddenly plummet to the bottom.

She was so unwilling for others to know about this, and she kept it a secret for so many years.

“Look at you, even now, after all these years, you are still so afraid of swimming pools. This has become your eternal inner demon.”

An Ying took a few deep breaths, and her stomach, which had been churning with nausea, calmed down a little.

In the dim moonlight, she looked at her pale face reflected on the lake.

Just like I was when I was twelve years old, pale and powerless.

The little girl who lost her mother but still wanted to live a better life was practicing for a competition when a male teacher suddenly appeared by the pool.

The teacher took out a note from her pocket. It contained words of admiration and explicitness, asking her to meet at the swimming pool. It was signed with her own name, An Ying.

The teacher kept glancing at her with a lewd look and ordered her to take off her swimsuit. She was terrified.

He threatened to drown her if she didn't obey.

She tried desperately to run, but found that the swimming pool door was locked from the inside.

She cried out for help, but no one paid any attention.

She fled to the changing room, found a pair of scissors, and stabbed the teacher in the abdomen.

Looking at her hands covered in blood, she panicked and found an unlocked window, where she finally escaped.

From then on, she never swam again, and never went near the pool again.

A few days later, she learned that the teacher had not died, but was seriously injured and hospitalized.

Not only that, the male teacher made outrageous remarks, accusing her of intentional harm, having a despicable mind, and bringing a bad influence to the school, which caused a great uproar and made it into the news.

As a result, a few days later, the matter suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Because someone gouged out the teacher's right eye, the teacher was so frightened that he resigned overnight, dared not pursue the matter, and fled from the south of the city under an assumed name.

The rumors spread like wildfire, with some saying she was a vixen who lacked self-control, and others saying she was deliberately smearing the school's reputation.

The entire school began to isolate and bully her.

No one believed she was a victim.

But she was the one who was violated and humiliated.

That was the loneliest and most helpless time for An Ying.

This is her inner demon.

However, this inner demon cannot be driven away no matter what.

Every night around midnight, this inner demon would transform into a nightmare, creeping into her mind and tormenting her so much that she would curl up in bed and weep in agony.

It took her a long time to gradually recover from the trauma of this incident.

An Xiaoxiao said with a sinister smile, "Seeing how scared you are, I'll take pity on you and tell you some truths you don't know."

"Back then, I forged your handwriting on that note, and I locked the swimming pool door from the inside."

"The only thing I didn't expect was that I overlooked the windows of the swimming pool. Those windows were quite high, and you actually dared to climb over them."

An Ying's mind went blank for a moment, and her whole body froze.

Her voice trembled: "Why, why did you do this to me?"

Seeing An Ying's trembling fingertips, An Xiaoxiao smiled contemptuously.

"What could be more satisfying than dragging a goddess, whom everyone idolizes, into the mud?"

An Xiaoxiao leaned closer, near An Ying's ear, and said with a sly smile, "Sister, you'll never get rid of me in this lifetime."

Can't get rid of it?

An Ying's pupils darkened slightly, her face as still as a pool of water, and she murmured softly:

"An Xiaoxiao, how can I get rid of her?"

An Xiaoxiao was taken aback.

An Ying suddenly reached her hand into the pool and splashed water at An Xiaoxiao behind her.

Water got into An Xiaoxiao's eyes, and the pain made her let go of An Ying's hair.

"You bitch, what are you doing...?"

Before An Xiaoxiao could react, An Ying suddenly raised her hand.

Snapped--

A stinging slap landed on An Xiaoxiao's face.

An Xiaoxiao cried out in pain.

"An Ying, are you crazy?! There are security cameras here! How dare you hit me?!"

An Ying forced herself to stand up, her face as cold as ice.

"So what? It's better to have surveillance cameras."

An Xiaoxiao covered her aching cheek, looking both nervous and confused: "What are you doing...?"

At that moment, An Ying made a decision.

She suddenly grabbed An Xiaoxiao's hand and ripped it towards her collar, revealing a large expanse of skin.

An Xiaoxiao panicked and turned her head to look in the direction of the surveillance camera.

From the perspective of the surveillance camera, An Ying's hand could not be captured; only An Xiaoxiao's hand could be captured.

People might mistakenly think she deliberately tore An Ying's clothes!

An Ying sneered: "What are you afraid of? There's more."

An Xiaoxiao tried hard to pull her hand back, but An Ying gripped it even tighter.

An Ying's expression turned stern: "An Xiaoxiao, from now on, I won't let you have an easy time."

After saying that, she took An Xiaoxiao's hand and leaned back.

puff-

Both of them fell into the water.

Only then did people in the glass-enclosed banquet hall notice the commotion at the swimming pool outside.

"Someone has fallen into the water! Help!"

"Did they fall into the water or swim...?"

Ye Rao, who was talking to some senior students about clients, heard someone fall into the water and was puzzled. Who would go swimming in this cold weather?

She looked up and glanced around, but didn't see An Ying.

A bad feeling suddenly rose in my heart.

Oops!

She immediately got up and rushed outside.

As a result, a tall figure ran faster than her and brushed past her.
