There were only two people in that private room, but Han Ruoxi felt that there was still a hand in the dark, holding her throat.
Just like there were thousands of ants getting into her bones, she clenched her fists and wanted to push some kind of thirst out of the body, but felt more painful. There seemed to be thousands of wounds hidden under her skin, as if she could only let the pain out by breaking her body.
Tears slipped from the corner of the eye uncontrollably. She looked at Kang Ruicheng with hatred, and wanted to rush to tear him apart, but she didn’t even have the strength to stand up.
Kang Ruicheng seemed to be used to that situation, so he lit a cigarette skillfully, then handed it to Han Ruoxi’s lips. “Just smoke it, you’ll feel less pain after you smoke it.”
The only reason left told Han Ruoxi that she couldn’t take the temptation by the devil.
But the physical endurance seemed to have reached the limit; she couldn’t hold on.
‘This is the last time’. She told herself that there would never be another time!
After taking the smoke from Kang Ruicheng’s hand, she took a few puffs. Han Ruoxi’s whole body was lying on the sofa. The feeling of the ants biting the bones slowly faded away. Instead, it was a kind of happiness that permeated from the bone marrow.
As if the wishes of that life had been satisfactorily completed. She briefly forgot all the things that she could not ask for, and there was a smile of fascination on her face.
Kang Ruicheng patted her face. “Told you. Listen to me, is it alright?”
After some time, Han Ruoxi was sobered from the feeling of being on cloud nine. She stared coldly at Kang Ruicheng, and unconsciously tried to stay away from him.
The man was more dangerous than she imagined. She didn’t even know when he mixed something in her cigarette.
“Miss Han, I never thought about hurting you,” Kang Ruicheng put the hand with the cigar on the back of the sofa, “on the contrary, I let you experience the greatest happiness. You owe me a thank you.”
“Why are you doing this?” Han Ruoxi growled in a low tone, “you know that I am an artist. This will ruin me!”
“This is the best way to control a person,” Kang Ruicheng said.
“Do you really think that this will completely control me?” Han Ruoxi smiled coldly and said, “this is just the beginning. I can completely quit with my perseverance!”
“I forgot to tell you—” Kang Ruicheng pointed to the camera at the top corner of the private room, “you just had the appearance of an addiction and smoking. All of it was photographed. If you dare to do anything against me, the whole world will see what you looked like in less than 24 hours.”
Han Ruoxi’s face turned completely pale, and the whole body went soft on the sofa, and looked at Kang Ruicheng incredulously.
In the entertainment circle, she had been familiar with various survival rules and unspoken rules in the industry. There were few female artists who could compare her with the sophistication.
With that in mind, her career had been smooth in the past few years. She thought she was indestructible, so she still dared to cooperate with Kang Ruicheng, even if she knew that he was dangerous.
She ignored one thing—the people in the entertainment circle were human, and the man in front of her was the devil.
Seeing that Han Ruoxi was that scared, Kang Ruicheng smiled more and more comfortably: “You don’t have to worry too much. As long as you listen to me, you will be the international big celebrity, the queen in the eyes of the fans.You can still get unprecedented happiness here from me.”
He laid a pack of “cigarettes” in Han Ruoxi’s bag.
Han Ruoxi’s hands clenched into fists and she couldn’t help but tremble. “I didn’t say I want to be controlled by you!”
“But I am used to controlling everything that has value. You are a predecessor in the entertainment industry. You have some power. I don’t deny it. But—” Kang Ruicheng suddenly held Han Ruoxi’s chin; his eyes looked very dangerous. “In my place, I will always have the final say! You can only listen to my words.”
Han Ruoxi was unwilling and moved Kang Ruicheng’s hand away. “What value do you see in me?”
“You are the daughter Chamber of Commerce’s president, and the financial celebrities of A city must show you some respect,” Kang Ruicheng smiled, “Lu Boyan saw your value. He is just conceited.”
Han Ruoxi turned her head, “Don’t mention him!”
“The outside world is guessing that it’s not that you took the initiative to terminate the cooperation with Lu Enterprises, but actuallt Su Jianan driving you out of the company,” Kang Ruicheng looked at Han Ruoxi, his eyes cold like a snake’s. “How can you treat yourself so wrong? I will help you teach Lu Boyan a lesson, huh?”
Han Ruoxi took a deep breath and stared at Kang Ruicheng with vigilance. “What do you want to do?”
Kang Ruicheng put on an evil smile, like the devil when opening his claws. “You will know tomorrow. The opening of a good show, Miss Han. I need more cooperation from you in the future. A happy cooperation.”
Han Ruoxi held Kang Ruicheng’s hand with little strength. “I don’t care how you treat Su Jianan, but my bottom line is that you can’t hurt Lu Boyan.”
Kang Ruicheng smiled without any flaws. “Understood, Miss Han. I want Su Jianan, you can rest assured.”
How could he hurt Lu Boyan?
He must first look at him suffering in pain, and then defeat him when he was the most uncomfortable!
On the next day.
The heavy snow finally stopped, and the warm sunshine made the snow in the garden more white and shining.
After Su Jianan changed her shoes, she released Lu Boyan’s hand and made a small snowball. She then threw it towards him as soon as he came out.
Before she imagined the snowball blossoming on Lu Boyan’s chest. She saw his hand reaching out and caught the snowball easily.
Su Jianan’s couldn’t believe it and opened her eyes for two seconds, then she turned and ran out.
Unsuccessfully sneaking an attacked on Lu Boyan, she would be stupid if she didn’t run away.
Su Jianan ran too fast. When she ran out, she saw a white car driving straight toward her. She suddenly stumbled. When the car was five or six meters away from her, she only felt a pulling force behind her. She then fell into a familiar embrace.
At the same time, the sharp brakes sounded.
Su Jianan was still in shock, and Lu Boyan checked her situation with his eyebrows raised. He asked: “Did you get hurt?”
She shook her head while being a little numb. “No.”
Shen Yuechuan hurriedly got off and ran over. “Jianan, are you okay?”
Before Su Jianan answered, Lu Boyan had already punched Shen Yuechuan: “Do you drive with your eyes closed?”
Shen Yuechuan felt so innocent. How would he know that Su Jianan would suddenly rush out! He was the one who was in a hurry!
At the moment, there was no time to explain too much. Shen Yuechuan suppressed the voice and told Lu Boyan the news he received that morning.
Su Jianan stood not far behind, unable to hear what Shen Yuechuan told Lu Boyan, then Lu Boyan came over, looking very calm and said to her. “Something’s urgent. I have to go to the company to deal with it. Uncle Qian will take you to work today.”
She didn’t ask anything, she just nodded. “Okay. Go ahead, I will wait for Uncle Qian to get the car.”
Lu Boyan then went to Shen Yuechuan’s car to leave. In less than two minutes, Uncle Qian drove another car out. “What’s so urgent in the early morning that the young master doesn’t even have time to take you to the police office?”
Su Jianan shook her head. “I didn’t ask, but looking at Shen Yuechuan’s appearance, it should be very urgent.”
She didn’t know much about Shen Yuechuan, but compared with Lu Boyan’s rigorous and prudent personality, Shen Yuechuan was relatively casual. He was more like a son of the rich and never rushed to anything; but when it came to real business, he never delayed and was very effective.
Shen Yuechuan was in a hurry when he was driving the car and getting off of it. Su Jianan didn’t know if things were serious or not.
Uncle Qian saw that Su Jianan frowned from the rearview mirror, so he smiled and gave her reassurance, “Young Madam, don’t worry. Even if the sky is about to collapse, they can solve it.”
Even so, Su Jianan still had some restlessness throughout the day.
When she was about to got off work, all the things on hand had been done. Su Jianan sat at the computer and stared at the screen, not knowing what she was thinking.
Jiang Shaokai saw her looking like that after he came back from getting water, so he knocked on her desktop. “What are you thinking?”
Su Jianan came to herself and shook her head. “I don’t know, I always feel that something is going to happen.”
“You are just so free,” Jiang Shaokai rolled his chair with his feet and slipped to the side of Su Jianan. “Don’t think about it. It’s better to make a decision for me if you have time.”
“Privileged Mr. Jiang Master needs me to make a decision?”
“… It’s Zhou Qilan’s birthday. I picked a gift, but I don’t know if it’s appropriate to send it out.”
Zhou Qilan was the blind girl who was dating Jiang Shaikai. During that time, Su Jianan did not hear Jiang Shaokkai mention too much about her, and thought that he used the old tricks to send people away. She did not expect that the two still contacted each other.
She looked at Jiang Shaokai with great interest. “What are you going to give her?”
“Painting tools,” Jiang Shaokai said, “She told me that she likes to paint. She wanted to be an artist since she was a child. But when she chose her major, she chose business because of her family, and she has not touched a brush for many years. But I can see that she still likes to paint.”
Su Jianan thought for a moment. “There is nothing wrong with it. Why do you still hesitate? It’s not your style.”
Jiang Shaokai sighed, and he couldn’t say why. He simply slipped back and decided, “Then, I will send this! Right, has there been any news recently about Xiaoxi?”
Su Jianan shook her head. “She called me before she got on the plane, and then she didn’t contact me anymore after that. And no one can.”
According to Luo Xiaoxi’s character, Jiang Shaokai was not surprised at all that she disappeared so thoroughly. He shook his head and said, “Your brother is too pathetic.”
At that moment, it was exactly five o’clock.
Su Jianan said as she packed things up, “I remember you said that when you started to like someone, then your half miserable life started. It seems that the poorer person is you.”
Jiang Shaokai knew that Su Jianan was talking about Zhou Qilan, laughing and not answering.
He knew better than anyone whether he liked Zhou Qilan or not.
Out of the police station, Su Jianan thought that it would take a while until Lu Boyan came, but she did not expect that Uncle Qian’s car had stopped at the police station. She walked over. Uncle Qian said, “Yuechuan just called me and said that the young master will work overtime, so he asked me to pick you up.”
Su Jianan got on the car and said before Uncle Qian started the car. “Go to the company.”
The Municipal Bureau was not far from the Lu Enterprises. It didn’t take long to arrive. Su Jianan saw a group of people around the company. She found that they were reporters after she looked closely!
Uncle Qian had already understood. “Now the reporters are at the door. Young Madam, I will take you back first.”
“Uncle Qian, stop the car,” Su Jianan stared at the door of the company. The bad feelings in the heart exploded at that moment, “I want to know what happened.”
