Dark as ink.

A black Rolls-Royce drove straight to an upscale residential complex in the city center.

Fu Chengli skillfully maneuvered the steering wheel and reversed the car into the parking space.

He turned his head to look at the girl in the passenger seat.

The car was very warm, and An Ying drifted off to sleep in the passenger seat, her damp hair tangled around her neck.

Fu Chengli naturally reached out and covered An Ying's forehead with his large palm, then withdrew his hand and touched his own forehead.

Thankfully, it should just be a low-grade fever.

An Ying huddled in the passenger seat. Suddenly, she instinctively raised her hand, reached out in the air, and grabbed Fu Chengli's hand.

Fu Chengli looked down and saw that she was squeezing his hand very tightly, so tightly that her fingertips turned white.

Her eyes were closed, but her eyeballs kept rolling around anxiously, and her breathing was rapid.

Maybe I had a nightmare.

Fu Chengli gently called her name, but he couldn't wake her up no matter how long he called.

It's impossible to expect her to get down and walk back on her own.

Fu Chengli got out of the car, opened the passenger door, unbuckled An Ying's seatbelt, hooked one arm around her shoulder and the other around her knee, and easily lifted her up in his arms.

He's such a light and airy little guy, I don't know where he gets such a lot of energy.

The elevator goes straight to the top floor.

Fu Chengli rarely stayed at the Fu residence. He would only go back for a couple of days when Old Master Fu summoned him or had something to do with him.

This upscale mansion, located in the most luxurious area of ​​the city center, is the most expensive in the community. It is a top-floor duplex with a 360-degree panoramic balcony overlooking the bustling night view of the entire northern city.

He bought it last year out of boredom.

I regretted it as soon as I bought it.

This house is huge, big enough that you can run around inside it.

It's just that being home alone all the time can feel a bit lonely.

Fu Chengli placed An Ying on the bed and turned to go to the bathroom to get water for her to take a bath.

He had just finished filling the bathtub with water when he caught a glimpse of a shadow clinging to the bathroom door frame.

An Ying had half her body hidden outside the door frame, with only her small head sticking out and leaning against the door frame.

A pair of almond-shaped eyes gazed at him intently for a long while before slowly uttering a sentence:

"You...you can't be that beastly, can you?"

She had just woken up and was looking at the unfamiliar room and the soft bed.

She was so frightened that she jumped out of bed, only to breathe a sigh of relief when she saw that her clothes were intact.

Hearing the sound of running water from the bathroom again, An Ying struggled to get out of bed and saw Fu Chengli rolling up his sleeves and filling the bathtub with water.

Fu Chengli looked at her expressionlessly: "Teach me what constitutes being a beast."

An Ying: "...That's how it is, and that's how it is."

Fu Chengli: "..."

An Ying suddenly remembered something and looked wary: "You're not going to help me take a bath, are you...?"

Fu Chengli's expressionless face suddenly curled into a smile: "Do you want me to help you wash?"

An Ying answered almost instantly: "No."

Fu Chengli's upturned lips immediately disappeared.

An Ying made a gesture to "please leave," and pushed Fu Chengli out of the bathroom.

She immediately locked the bathroom door and checked it several times to make sure it was locked before she felt at ease changing her wet clothes one by one.

An Ying lay half-reclined in the bathtub, feeling much more comfortable.

Rich people's houses are so nice, they even try to come up with a hundred different massage options for a bathtub.

An Ying gently rested her head on the edge of the bathtub, recalling everything that had happened tonight.

There was one thing she needed to confirm.

An Xiaoxiao said that her family gave her a dowry of five million yuan when she married Lu Qiyao.

An Xiaoxiao was speaking very quickly at the time, and she clearly let something slip.

Based on An Ying's understanding of An Weiping over the years, he couldn't possibly earn that much money.

Where did this five million come from?

Could it have been given to us by the Fu family?

wrong.

If it was given by the Fu family, it should be a very prestigious thing, but what was the reason for the fleeting panic on An Xiaoxiao's face?

After tonight's outburst, she and An Xiaoxiao have essentially broken off their relationship.

In the past, An Ying still had some feelings for An Xiaoxiao. She knew that An Xiaoxiao had been bullied and insulted since childhood as a mistress's bastard child.

Although An Xiaoxiao was annoying, in An Ying's eyes, she was more like a rebellious child who liked to jump around and show off her presence.

When she stole Lu Qiyao away, An Ying was furious, but after all, he was a man. If he was gone, he was gone. There were plenty of men in the world, and the next one would be even better.

An Ying has no regrets about loving him for seven years, but she can let go easily and will never look back.

When An Xiaoxiao revealed the truth about what happened at the swimming pool, An Ying's heart sank.

She saw the "evil" in An Xiaoxiao for the first time.

From now on, she will no longer let An Xiaoxiao cause trouble.

An Xiaoxiao still wanted to act as if nothing had happened, as if none of this had occurred, and Meimei was getting married with a generous dowry.

She dreams.

An Ying scooped up some water from the bathtub and splashed it on her face, instantly feeling much more awake.

After getting out of the bathtub, An Ying searched around the bathroom for a while before realizing a problem: where was the bath towel?

Suddenly, the doorknob turned a few times, and the bathroom door was pushed open a crack.

An Ying asked in confusion: Wasn't it locked just now? Is it broken?!
