After her ninth miscarriage, she finally let her scumbag husband and her beloved get together.

Xu Wantang leaned over the back seat, her hands nervously clutching something.

She only slightly raised her eyes when she felt a slight warmth in her palm.

From her angle, all she could see were the man's bent legs, his black trousers perfectly pressed without a single wrinkle.

Except for the piece she was holding onto.

The man rested one hand on his head, his fingers long and slender yet powerful.

One hand rested on the documents on his lap, a red Buddhist prayer bead nestled between his thumb and forefinger, his fingertips rubbing it, the bead making a soft sound.

The midday sun shone through the specially designed car window onto his face, making his features appear deep and aloof.

His dark pupils were slightly lowered, revealing an undeniable air of authority.

Xu Wantang reacted as if she had been electrocuted, and immediately released her grip.

"Second, second brother, I..."

Before she could explain, she saw the driver actually catch up with her.

He also saw Cen Yuan's car.

The driver spoke a few words into his phone and quickly walked towards the car.

Xu Wantang could vaguely make out one or two sentences.

"Third Young Master...it's Second Young Master."

"...I will definitely go and verify it..."

It must have been Cen Shichuan who had the driver confirm whether she had left the hospital.

The lie was about to be exposed.

Xu Wantang bit her lip and looked at Cen Yuan: "Second Brother, I'm sorry."

After saying that, she grabbed the man's coat from the side and covered herself with it, trying to get past his legs and hide by the car door.

Even if the driver is standing outside the car door, he might not be able to see her.

But just as she stepped over one of the man's legs, his other leg moved, locking her between his legs.

Xu Wantang was so shocked that she dared not move.

He was completely covered by his coat, and all that could be seen were his long legs encased in trousers.

It was dark and gloomy, with an inexplicable tension.

She dared not touch it, much less look at it carelessly.

My mouth and throat became inexplicably dry, and my breathing became rapid.

Suddenly, the man's hand landed on her head through her coat, turning her face to the side.

She paused for a moment, then suddenly thought of something, and quickly covered her mouth and nose, trying to control her breathing.

Her face was burning hot and flushed.

Just then, there was a knocking sound on the window above.

A crack appeared in the car window, and Cen Yuan's voice remained calm: "What is it?"

"Second Young Master, Third Young Master's wife said she's ill. Third Young Master asked me to take her to the hospital, but she actually ran away from the hospital by herself. Third Young Master is worried that something might have happened to her, so he asked me to come out and look for her. I wonder if you've seen her?"

The driver was respectful, but his eyes kept glancing into the car.

Even Xu Wantang, who was hiding under her coat, could feel the searching gaze.

Fortunately, the driver didn't dare to anger Cen Yuan, so he quickly glanced at him and looked away.

But Xu Wantang was still so angry about what the driver said that she trembled.

The driver described Cen Shichuan as a considerate and caring husband, while she was a silly and lying wife.

These words were clearly spoken by Cen Shichuan through the driver to Cen Yuan.

Whether she was in the car or not, Cen Shichuan wanted everyone to hate her.

Does he hate her that much?

But when she was seventeen, she was ostracized by her classmates, and Cen Shichuan was the first person to stand up for her.

"Wantang is very good."

As the least favored child in the family, Xu Wantang was affirmed for the first time.

From then on, her gaze unconsciously followed Cen Shichuan.

But Cen Shichuan is too dazzling.

She only dared to like him cautiously.

After he got together with his sister, Xu Wantang reminded himself to keep his feelings in check and wish them well by repeatedly calling him "brother-in-law."

Even though she later married him despite the infamy, she didn't dare to dream of being with him; she only wanted to make amends to him as much as possible.

But what did her sincerity get her in return?

It's a scam!

Driven by anger and resentment, Xu Wantang trembled all over, even her coat quivered slightly.

Just as the driver noticed, the man's legs pressed against her.

Instantly, her body pressed itself against the man uncontrollably.

Cen Yuan paused, but his expression remained unchanged; he even calmly turned the page of the document.

"I didn't see it."

"Yes, Second Young Master, I apologize for disturbing you."

The driver didn't dare ask any more questions and immediately stepped back.

Xu Wantang only dared to get out of her coat after the car had driven some distance.

Perhaps it was because she had been cooped up for too long, her whole face was red.

Sweat soaked a few strands of hair, making them slightly disheveled and clinging to her cheeks and neck, which made her look even more beautiful.

Cen Yuan turned the prayer beads, then lowered his gaze.

"stand up."

"..."

Xu Wantang then realized that she had unknowingly fallen onto Cen Yuan's lap.

She quickly let go, and was about to explain when a thought flashed through her mind.

Does Cen Yuan's help to her just now mean that her seduction last night was effective?

Why not take advantage of their misfortune, or rather, strike while the iron is hot?

Thinking about it, Xu Wantang slowed down her movements and breathed slightly as she got up.

"Second Brother, the wound you treated for me last night has become infected, and I still have a fever today. I didn't want anyone to see the wound, so I left first. I didn't expect Third Young Master to misunderstand. I... Ah!"

Xu Wantang was playing the victim when her assistant Lin Yue suddenly stopped.

She had just stood up when she suddenly slumped back onto Cen Yuan's lap.

Under inertia,

Her slender body trembled, like a broken willow branch, and swayed as it crashed towards the man.

Cen Yuan grabbed her limp waist, trying to steady the distance between them.

But we were still a step too late.

Their noses touched lightly, their breaths mingling, some light, some heavy.

Xu Wantang subconsciously gripped the man's shirt, her face flushed, and even her watery eyes turned a light pink.

Suddenly, the man's breath became heavier, and the hand around his waist tightened slightly.

cough cough.

Lin Yue coughed twice.

Upon hearing the sound, Xu Wantang hurriedly got up, accidentally bumping her back against the car seat, the pain making her consciousness begin to blur.

"It hurts so much..."

Her voice was soft and moist, which was quite soothing to listen to.

He slumped into Cen Yuan's arms, feeling dizzy.

Cen Yuan's dark eyes darkened. His palm, pressed against the woman's, was burning hot, but he didn't let go.

Seeing this, Lin Yue finally snapped out of his shock at the sudden stop.

Last night? Treating the wound?

Wasn't Xu Wantang having a fierce battle with Cen Shichuan last night?

"Second Young Master."

"..."

Cen Yuan gave him a cold look.

Lin Yue immediately swallowed the rest of his words and restarted the car: "I understand."

In a daze, Xu Wantang felt someone put medicine into her mouth.

The pills were extremely bitter, and she instinctively wanted to vomit.

The man grabbed her chin, forcing her to obediently swallow the medicine.

The medicinal smell gradually disappeared, replaced by the lingering aroma of agarwood.

Beneath the composure, a hint of danger lurked.

Before Xu Wantang could open her eyes and see clearly, the effects of the medicine kicked in, and she finally fell into a deep sleep.

Although she was asleep, she was curled up, looking very insecure.

Lin Yue glanced at the rearview mirror, then glanced again, and finally couldn't hold back and spoke.

"Second Young Master, is she...is she trying to seduce you?"

"..."

"This seduction is too crude; it feels like an honest man being forced into a corner."

"..."

Cen Yuan moved away and closed his eyes to rest.

Lin Yue didn't ask any more questions. If he could see it, how could Cen Yuan not?

……

Cen Residence.

As the car entered the Cen family's territory, Xu Wantang seemed to sense something and broke out in a cold sweat.

I tried to open my eyes, but I was trapped in a nightmare.

She was like a drowning person, only waking up when she clung tightly to a piece of driftwood.

At that moment, a deep male voice came from above.

"If you're awake, you can let go now."

"..."

Xu Wantang seemed to wake from a dream and looked in that direction.

When she realized she couldn't sleep well, she actually reached out and grabbed Cen Yuan's Buddhist prayer beads.

My apologies, my apologies.

She quickly let go and said apologetically, "Second Brother, I... I didn't mean to. Thank you for seeing me off. I'll be going now."

After saying that, she turned and got out of the car.

Even though the fever had subsided, her cheeks were still flushed.

She strode inside, and as she walked through the hall, a somber voice rang out.

"Where did you go? Don't you have anything to explain to me?"
