Five years after their breakup, a prominent lawyer is desperately seeking reconciliation.

My head hurts so much...

Jiang Wan forced herself to open her eyes, only to find that everything was still dark, but there was a faint light shining through the darkness.

She suddenly realized that someone had blindfolded her!

Her last memories before losing consciousness slowly surfaced, and almost instantly, cold sweat streamed down her forehead.

She tried to get up, but found herself powerless, as if the signal between her brain and body had been cut off. No matter how she gave orders, her body remained motionless.

She licked her lips and shouted, but the sound that came out was like the meow of a newborn kitten, hoarse and weak.

Terror washed over Jiang Wan like a tidal wave. She could almost hear the pounding of her own heart, each beat a reminder that this was not a nightmare.

The footsteps grew closer, and Jiang Wan felt the space around her sink in.

Someone sat down next to her, and a pair of slightly cold hands slowly stroked her face.

She tried to turn away, but it was no use. She could only shout, but the sound was still stuck in her throat and unclear.

"So my sister woke up? She woke up earlier than I expected."

It's that blond boy!

"Sister, I've been observing you for a long time. Do you know how beautiful you are? I've never been with a mature woman like you before."

"Don't be afraid, I'm very experienced. I'll make sure you feel comfortable, and I guarantee you'll never forget me."

Those large hands slowly moved down from Jiang Wan's face.

jaw.

neck.

Chest.

Seeing those hands about to slip inside her collar, Jiang Wan's eyes widened as if she were in an ice cellar, every cell in her body screaming a warning to escape!

But it seemed as if her body and soul were separated, no matter how anxious she was.

The body remained limp and motionless on the bed.

Just as the hand reached in, a telephone rang suddenly.

The blond-haired boy pulled his hand away and answered the phone.

They were very close, and the voice on the other end of the phone could be clearly heard by Jiang Wan.

"What should we do? That bitch Qian Xianxian got away."

The blond boy suddenly sat up straight, then relaxed again as if he had thought of something.

"Don't worry, she won't dare to call the police. I heard from the group that Qian Xianxian just attended a party last night, so she can't stand being investigated now."

Hearing what Huang Mao said, the person on the other end of the phone calmed down considerably.

"Idiot, you can't even handle a woman like Qian Xianxian you've slept with, what a waste. Alright, come here, Qian Xianxian is nothing, this is the real gem."

Jiang Wan's breath hitched, her eyes filled with despair.

After hanging up the phone, Huang Mao leaned down again, his hot breath spraying onto Jiang Wan's exposed skin.

Jiang Wan felt her legs being lifted and her shoes being gently taken off.

"Sister smells so good."

"drop."

The sound of the door being swung open suddenly rang out, and a moment later, a strange male voice rang out.

"Yellow Hair, is Qian Xianxian really alright?"

"What are you afraid of? Women are easy to please in bed. If Qian Xianxian ran away, there's still this fairy, isn't there?"

A pair of large hands grasped Jiang Wan's calves and began to play with them.

"Damn, blondie, this obedience potion is really effective. I've been eyeing this woman for ages; she's got a pure face and a hot body. I wonder how things will go when we start having sex?"

"Hehe, you wait in line, I'll let you go first when I'm done."

A pair of hands squeezed in from behind Jiang Wan, and the zipper of her dress was slowly pulled down.

Her head drooped limply, her eyes were empty, and tears quickly soaked the black cloth in front of her.

Jiang Wan felt as if her soul had been ripped out; she collapsed to the ground, utterly bewildered.

Suddenly, the door was kicked open, and the zipper on his back stopped halfway through.

Then came two pig-like screams.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Wan felt herself being wrapped in a blanket, her body being lifted up, and her eyes suddenly brightened.

Lu Jingshi's handsome face was inches away.

His dark pupils dilated sharply, revealing a deep sense of urgency and fear in his eyes.

He suddenly pulled the person into a tight embrace, as if he wanted to meld them into his body.

Feeling wronged and lingering fear, Jiang Wan could no longer hold back her tears, which dripped down her cheeks and soaked her neck.

Police and medical personnel rushed in shortly after.

Jiang Wan completely relaxed and fainted.

When I opened my eyes again, I wasn't in a hospital, but in a large, white bedroom.

Same room type, different furnishings.

Lu Jingshi's room.

She cleared her dry, sore throat, and someone immediately came over.

"You're awake?"

Lu Jingshi's clothes were disheveled, his eyes were dark and his chin was covered with a ring of gray stubble.

Jiang Wan leaned against him, drank half a glass of water from his hand, and tried to speak.

"Thanks."

His voice was still hoarse, but at least he could make sounds.

She glanced at the clock on the bedside table and realized it was already noon; she was going to miss her flight.

"I'm sorry for the delay...".

Lu Jingshi pursed his lips and remained silent. He picked up a cup of white porridge from the bedside table, scooped up a spoonful, blew on it gently, and brought it to her lips.

She was about to speak when he interrupted her.

"No sugar added; the doctor said to eat a light diet for the next couple of days."

Jiang Wan looked miserable. She always insisted on adding sugar to her porridge; without sugar, she would rather not eat a single bite.

If Wang Yiran were here in the past, she might have shirked her responsibility.

But at this moment, Lu Jingshi stared intently at her with a blank expression. Jiang Wan resignedly took the bowl and poured the contents in a few mouthfuls.

Just as I put the bowl down, a cup of dark soup was placed in front of me.

"What... is this now?"

"Traditional Chinese medicine can remove those residual chemicals from your body."

Jiang Wan gritted her teeth, pinched her nose, and tilted her head back to gulp it down.

Then he held the stone up and kept slurping it, saying, "It's so bitter."

Lu Jingshi's gaze lingered on her face and lips.

"Is it really that hard?"

Jiang Wan nodded: "It's even more miserable than my life."

"Then... that way, it won't be bitter anymore."

Lu Jingshi lowered his head, captured her lips with his own, and traced the back of her ear with his fingertips, kissing her with restraint and tenderness.

Jiang Wan neither struggled nor yielded; she simply stared blankly into his eyes, which were so close to hers.

She was afraid—afraid that he would accuse her of seducing him after it was over. Afraid that he would blame her for being too eager and delusional when he sobered up.

She couldn't understand him.

They didn't even know what the kiss meant.

Sensing her distraction, Lu Jingshi gently bit her lip, causing Jiang Wan to wince in pain and slightly part her teeth.

A nimble little snake slithered inside, wrapped around Jiang Wan's tongue, and sucked on it again and again.

Jiang Wan was having trouble breathing when he finally released her.

"Is it still bitter?"

Jiang Wan blushed, unsure how to answer.

The sudden knock on the door eased her embarrassment.

Lu Jingshi raised his voice: "No need to clean."

"Ashi, it's me."

Fang Tian's voice.
