A whirlwind marriage leads to doting affection; the husband pampers her every night.

Mo Ze only let go of Lin Shao when he begged for mercy in pain and was covered in cold sweat.

"This is my gift to you. We'll settle the score later," Mo Ze said before leaving the ward.

He walked for quite a while, and Lin Shao still couldn't catch his breath.

He patted his chest, still shaken, feeling a wave of lingering fear.

Just now, he really felt like he was about to die at this man's hands.

Looking at himself, he felt as if the King of Hell had come to claim his life, and even now, thinking back on it, he still trembles uncontrollably.

And he just said 'his wife,' could it be...?

"Damn it, that bitch Shen Ximan actually dared to scheme against me." After realizing what had happened, Lin Shao thought he had been tricked by Shen Ximan and was furious.

He originally thought the matter was over and done with; no one had even been touched, and he'd been crippled. He figured if he didn't pursue it, she wouldn't make things difficult for him. Besides, she was just a woman; who would bother going after the Lin family?

But now they're telling him that she's the wife of the president of JK Group.

Lin Shao was now extremely anxious, like an ant on a hot pan, and at the same time, he hated Shen Ximan with a passion.

Just like his father said, if the JK Group were to take action against the Lin family, it would be as easy as crushing an ant.

Lin Shao summoned his men and ordered, "Bring that bitch Shen Ximan here by any means necessary. She dared to set a trap for me. I'll kill her."

Shen family.

Shen Ximan was on tenterhooks all night and couldn't sleep well, fearing that Lin Shao's men would come to settle scores with her.

After returning home from her engagement ceremony at the hotel last night, she secretly inquired about the events of the previous night with her friends in her social circle. They replied to her this morning, saying that Young Master Lin was in the hospital, and they hadn't heard any other rumors. Neither the Lin family nor the JK Group had made any moves.

She felt a little relieved, but she was still somewhat distracted.

Although Lin Shao is currently hospitalized, she knows that once he recovers, he will settle accounts with her sooner or later.

However, on second thought, she actually hoped that JK Group would cause trouble for Young Master Lin, so that he wouldn't have the energy to settle scores with her.

"What are you doing? You seem so absent-minded so early in the morning." Lu Jiao's sudden appearance startled Shen Ximan.

She patted her chest and said, "Mom, you scared me to death!"

"I've been here for ages and you haven't reacted at all. What are you spacing out for?" Lu Jiao was wearing a cheongsam, her figure curvaceous and showing no signs of having given birth. Standing next to Shen Ximan, they looked more like sisters. Her face was covered in exquisite makeup, clearly showing that she had taken great care in her appearance.

She twirled in front of Shen Ximan, "How is it? Doesn't it look good? The cheongsam I ordered was just delivered this morning."

"You look good, Mom looks good in anything," Shen Ximan praised sweetly.

"Are you going out with Yunyi to look at the renovations of the new house today?" Lu Jiao asked, admiring her cheongsam while looking down at herself. She was in a very good mood; having climbed up to the Chu family, she had gained another layer of security.

"Okay, I'll go change my clothes first. Yunyi will come to pick me up later," Shen Ximan replied.

The Chu family bought Chu Yunyi a house in the city center when he was in college. They hadn't planned to move in so soon, but now that he and Shen Ximan are engaged, they've put the renovation of the house on the agenda.

Actually, it was a fully furnished apartment anyway, so all we needed to do was add some furniture and appliances before we could move in.

Shen Ximan already knew that he owned a large apartment in the city center, not far from A University, and she couldn't wait to move in.

The four of them squeezed into the dilapidated dormitory at school. There was nowhere to put her clothes, bags, jewelry, and cosmetics. After the start of the semester, she moved to a new house and never went back to the dormitory to squeeze with everyone again.

Shen Ximan changed her clothes and went downstairs. Chu Yunyi's car was already parked at the door.

"Mom, I'm leaving now." Because she was going to see the new house, her steps were light and her mood was much better.

After getting into the car, Chu Yunyi drove towards the city center.

Stepping into the new house, Shen Ximan was overjoyed and excitedly started planning with Chu Yunyi. "Yunyi, do you think we should put a mirror here? I can see myself looking pretty every day before I go out."

"Okay," Chu Yunyi replied.

Shen Ximan then dragged him from the bedroom to the kitchen, then to the bathroom and living room, showing him everything and arranging everything for him.

Chu Yunyi had no other opinions, he just said one word, "Good".

The two had originally planned to have lunch together after viewing the house, but Chu Yunyi received a call from his company and had to rush back.

"Manman, I'm sorry, there's an urgent matter at the company, I have to go there. You'll have to take a taxi home later," Chu Yunyi said, already walking out impatiently.

Shen Ximan said understandingly, "It's okay, you go ahead and do your work. I'm not a child anymore, I can go back by myself later."

Chu Yunyi didn't linger and left immediately.

Shen Ximan watched his departing figure, and her face immediately darkened.

She could sense that Chu Yunyi was somewhat absent-minded today, and his tone was perfunctory. She didn't call him out on it. Anyway, she was going to move into this house, and the position of the young mistress of the Chu family was definitely hers.

Shen Ximan closed the door, stood alone in front of the large French windows, overlooking the scenery of Jiangcheng, her hands slowly clenching...

Half an hour after Chu Yunyi left, Shen Ximan also came out.

She walked down the street with a small bag on her back and high heels, making phone calls to her followers, preparing to invite them to go to a bar together.

"Where are you all? Come out for a drink, it's on me..." She was engrossed in her phone call and didn't notice a black van parked on the side of the road that had been following her after she came out.

As she walked to the corner, a van suddenly pulled up beside her, two people got out, dragged her into the van, and drove off in a flash.

"Ahhh, who are you? What do you want? Let me out of the car! Let me go!" Shen Ximan only realized she had been kidnapped after being dragged into the car, and then began to struggle, punching and kicking.

The driver and the two people in the car remained unmoved.

Shen Ximan thought the other party was trying to rob her, so she immediately took out everything from her bag, including bank cards, cosmetics, and some cash. "Here, take all of this. Let me go. The bank card PIN is xxxxxx. You can take it and withdraw the money."

She was terrified of death.

She pleaded with a sob in her voice, hoping only that the other party would let her go.

The people in the car exchanged glances, then grabbed a towel and stuffed it into Shen Ximan's mouth. The car fell silent instantly, leaving only Shen Ximan staring wide-eyed and making muffled noises...
