Was the man a scumbag who tricked her into marriage? A powerful man brought his child to her door de

It's Shen Mingzhou.

Yan Xuxu instinctively lowered her head to avoid being discovered.

Shen Mingzhou must have just come from the company; he was dressed impeccably in a business suit.

His appearance attracted the attention of many women.

Yan Minmin stood up from her seat and waved to him familiarly, "Brother-in-law, over here."

Shen Mingzhou walked over and sat down opposite the two of them, responding naturally, "Yeah. Why did Minmin suddenly come back?"

"It's all because my brother-in-law keeps making my sister sad and upset. As her younger sister, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I came back to support her."

At this point, Su Wanqing stood up and sat down next to Shen Mingzhou.

Yan Minmin grinned mischievously, "Look how much my sister loves you. She doesn't even bother to coax her own sister anymore now that you're here."

Su Wanqing shyly took Shen Mingzhou's arm and said reproachfully, "It's like I don't care about you. Who called you every day and secretly sent you money while you were studying abroad all these years?"

"Yes, yes, they are all my good sisters."

"Oh right, my parents just called and said we're going home for dinner together tomorrow. You can come too, Zhou."

Shen Mingzhou gently brushed the stray hairs from Su Wanqing's forehead, his face full of tenderness. "Okay."

Yan Xuxu understood instantly!

It turns out that the Yan family knew about Shen Mingzhou and her getting a fake marriage certificate.

It's possible that the Yan family was involved in all of these arrangements.

Ironically, their family was warm and harmonious, but she was the only one who was completely fooled by them.

But she's also a child of the Yan family!

No matter how much the father disliked the mother or her.

How could someone collude with outsiders to deceive their own daughter?

One truth after another hit her like boulders. Yan Xuxu felt a dull pain in her chest and her ears were ringing. She clenched her palms and suppressed the hatred that was about to burst out of her chest.

After that, she left the booth quietly, as if she had never been there.

Just then, Shen Mingzhou turned his head, and a slender figure flashed past his eyes.

He frowned and stood up from his seat.

"A-Zhou, what's wrong?"

Su Wanqing looked in the direction he was looking, but didn't see anything, and just felt strange.

"It's nothing."

Shen Mingzhou simply assumed he had misjudged the situation.

Yan Xuxu no longer goes out to do business and has no need for socializing, so it's unlikely she'd be here.

But considering that she had left the company at noon and hadn't contacted him since, he still sent her a message asking where she was.

Yan Xuxu received the message and had already arrived at the door of the private room.

Looking at the insincere greeting, her eyes were cold, as if they were filled with icicles.

【at home.】

She casually typed out two words.

Shen Mingzhou quickly replied: 【Get some rest. I have to work overtime tonight, don't wait for me.】

Yan Xuxu ignored her and opened the door to the private room, then went inside.

"Boss, why are you so late? Everyone's been waiting for you for ages."

"Sorry, sorry, something came up and I was held up. I'll punish myself with three drinks."

Without saying a word, she picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it all in one gulp.

No one at the scene noticed anything unusual about her, but Lin Huan could see it clearly.

After she sat down beside him, Lin Huan leaned closer and whispered, "What's wrong?"

"Yan Minmin has returned to China, and Shen Mingzhou and Su Wanqing are hosting a welcome dinner for her."

"You two ran into each other?"

"without."

Yan Xuxu drank another glass of wine, as if that was the only way to ease her bad mood.

As she was drinking her fifth glass, Lin Huan stopped her, saying, "It's no fun drinking alone. Let's drink with Xuxu. We're not leaving until we're drunk tonight."

"Alright, let's drink until we drop!"

Everyone raised their glasses and clinked them together.

Yan Xuxu's alcohol tolerance is something she's developed over the years.

Whether it was because she was in a bad mood or because the alcohol was too strong, she quickly became drunk.

"Tell me, what did I do to wrong Shen Mingzhou? Did I kill his whole family in my past life, or did I dig up his ancestral graves in this life? He wants to use someone else's identity information to get a marriage certificate with me."

"For the past five years, I have taken good care of him and helped him consolidate his career. Even the most hard-hearted person would have been moved, but he actually joined forces with my family to set a trap for me."

"I know my father didn't like my mother and treated me poorly since I was little, but what biological father would push his daughter into a fire?"

The grievances and pain of the past few days seemed to have found an outlet and suddenly erupted.

Yan Xuxu finished her drink, smashed the glass on the ground in a fit of rage, and roared, "Am I even his biological daughter?"

Glass shards flew everywhere.

The noisy environment suddenly became quiet.

Lin Huan hugged her tenderly, "If you want to cry, just cry. We've all got your shoulders to lean on."

"Yes, Xuxu, you still have us. We are all your family."

Everyone was comforting her.

Yan Xuxu could no longer hold back her tears, which flowed out like an unstoppable gorge.

What she considered "home".

It was the cage that Shen Mingzhou used to imprison her.

What she thought was "love".

It was a tool he used to manipulate her.

But why would even her father be so cruel to her?

Tears fell to the ground with a dull thud.

At first, she cried very subtly, her shoulders trembling, and sobs escaping her lips. Slowly, she let go and hugged Lin Huan, crying her heart out.

The entire private room was filled with her sobs.

No one spoke.

She didn't know how long she cried before she finally raised her head, wiped away her tears, and forced a smile that was even more painful than crying. "I'm sorry, I lost my composure. I'll have someone come in and handle it."

Just as Lin Huan was about to say no, Yan Xuxu stumbled out of the private room.

Her long hair was disheveled and plastered to her face, her eyes were red-rimmed, and her wet eyelashes were still stained with tears. This disheveled yet innocent beauty made passersby turn their heads to take a second look.

Even more intoxicated men, lecherously whistling at her, approached her, and tried to grope her.

Not far away, a man wearing a pure black custom-made suit walked towards them.

The man's pale skin gleamed under the light, his left hand was in his pocket, and he exuded an aura that kept strangers at bay.

Mu Nan was following behind, reporting on her work, when she suddenly saw a figure in front of her.

"Mr. Jie, it seems to be Miss Yan."

Just then, Jie Lanyuan stepped into the shadows, which enveloped his sharply defined face, making him appear even more stern and cold.

He merely glanced at it casually, then looked down at his watch.

Then, he gave a very faint "hmm".

Unable to fathom his thoughts, Mu Nan cautiously asked, "Do you need help getting her out of this predicament?"

"Are you very free?"

Jie Lanyuan frowned, and the air pressure around him seemed to turn cold.

Mu Nan shuddered in fright and shook her head.

At noon, Xie Lanyuan lost his temper so badly because Yan Xuxu reported to him that he almost made him pack his bags and leave.

At this point, he dared not utter another word.

Ahead, Yan Xuxu took off her high heels and smashed them hard against the drunk man's forehead.

The drunkard howled in pain, his face covered in blood, and cursed fiercely as he tried to kick Yan Xuxu.

Mu Nan was getting anxious and was about to dare to remind him again when the man, who had been indifferent and unmoving, suddenly took off his suit jacket and threw it to him. He then unbuttoned his shirt cuffs and strode forward.
