Chapter

As the curtain of night falls, the city outside the window remains bustling and prosperous. The dim radiance and the neon lights scattered on the ground reflect each other, making it seem as though the whole sky is filled with stars.

Inside the VIP suite of the city's most luxurious hotel, Ling Yuxin quietly observes the man in black standing before her.

"Can I leave after drinking this glass of wine?"

Her voice is somewhat husky, adding a hint of sensuality to the night.

The man in black is in his thirties, with a scar on his forehead that makes him look quite menacing. At this moment, he is taking his time to study the woman in front of him with interest.

"You may." He only replies after a considerable pause.

Ling Yuxin feels a bit helpless. It seems that she has to drink this glass of wine tonight.

Therefore, she no longer hesitates, picks up the wine glass and places it on her rosy lips. Steadying herself, she tips the contents into her throat.

The fiery taste instantly fills her chest.

She starts to cough violently, and tears even well up in her eyes. A blush quickly spreads across her fair face, making her look as charming as a blooming peach blossom under the influence of the strong wine.

She squints, her long eyelashes shadowing almost half of her eyes, giving her a lazy yet bewitching appearance.

The man unconsciously swallows a mouthful of saliva.

Ling Yuxin slowly puts down the wine glass, enduring her discomfort, and says slowly, "Excuse me."

"You're quite straightforward. Won't you consider my proposal?"

"I'm sorry, I am your brother's woman!"

The man in black chortled as if he heard an amusing joke. "Brother?" His ominous gaze was locked onto Ling Yuxin.

At this moment, Ling Yuxin suddenly felt a surge of heat, like a tiny flash of lightning, zapping through her body in an instant.

Without a hint of distress, she checked her pulse, a sense of alarm welling in her heart.

This ruthless leader had ulterior motives.

Without a hint of hesitation, Ling Yuxin, bearing the gradually creeping heat, raised her weakened legs, attempting to leave.

"You want to leave, but do you think that would be easy?"

With a dismissive grunt, the man in black waved his hand, summoning two towering figures dressed in black from who-knows-where, blocking her exit.

Damn it!

She cursed silently, irritation brewing inside her.

"For the sake of a woman, you forsake brotherhood. Do you think it's worth it?" Ling Yuxin knitted her eyebrows, pushing forward her conjecture.

Her mind was a whirl of confusion. She bit her tongue sharply, the taste of iron filling her mouth.

She forced herself to remain calm.

Because she wouldn't let herself fall into the bloody hands of this infamous villain.

"Worth it? Don't you think those two words are somewhat amusing when related to me?" The man in black replied with a smirk, "Anything that I want to do, is worth it!"

"So, is all this worth it?"

Suddenly, a dagger appeared in Ling Yuxin's hands. The two guards before her furrowed their brows, their hands moving towards their back waist. It was the motion meant for drawing a gun.

She chuckled lightly, and with a flip of her hand, the dagger pointed toward her carotid artery. A trace of blood spread from the corner of her mouth, and dizziness washed over her. Ling Yuxin's body shivered slightly.

"If you don't want to collect your brother's dead body tomorrow morning," She slightly probed her fair and slender neck with the dagger, "It'd be wise to let me go!"

"An audacious woman!"

The man in black was livid with anger, roared furiously.

The wife of his fourth brother often appeared fragile, but god damn, she was unexpectedly fiery.

If she played around, it wouldn't be a big issue—he could just provide more women to his fourth brother. But if someone died, dealing with it won't be easy—especially during this critical moment.

In his rage, he kicked over the tea table before him.

With a crash, the wine glasses and bottles on the table instantly shattered, scattering on the white marble floor.

"Let her go!" He roared at the two gun-wielding guards, "Useless fools, letting a woman take out a knife in front of you!"

Without a moment's hesitation, Ling Yuxin backed away towards the door. Seeing the man's unwilling expression, she swiftly opened the door and ran out.

"Chase after her!"

The man in black felt unwilling the more he thought about it. He loudly commanded his subordinates to go after her, cursing under his breath. He had to get her tonight no matter what.

Ling Yuxin felt her legs go weak, her head spinning. She realized the drug was starting to take effect, that bastard!

She gritted her teeth, forcing herself to remain calm. She had already familiarized herself with the escape route when she came, and she knew which way was closest to the elevator.

At this moment, there was a flurry of footsteps behind her. Glamking back, she saw those two subordinates chasing after her.

With all the strength she could muster, Ling Yuxin sprinted towards the elevator hall and frantically pressed the elevator button.

Ding dong......

Just as the two subordinates were barely five steps away, the elevator doors opened.

Without thinking, Ling Yuxin dashed in and quickly hit the close button on the elevator.

Looking at the frustrated faces of the two subordinates that were closed outside the elevator, she let out a sigh of relief.

At this point, she noticed there was someone else in the elevator.

He was an exceedingly handsome man, with tightly pursed lips, an erect and slender body. He casually rolled up his shirt sleeves, exuding an innate nobility and indifference.

Ling Yuxin was stunned. A pleasing male scent unconsciously infiltrated her nostrils, leaving her tongue-tied and her eyes grew blurry. She knit her brows and bit her tongue tip again to help her regain some clarity.

Meanwhile, the man remained motionless. His whole being was exuding an indifferent aura and an intimidating atmosphere that ordinary people can't dare to face.

He cast a casual glance over at Ling Yuxin; his gaze was as calm as the midnight sea.

The man's aloof demeanor concealed the intensity in his eyes, but it still wasn't hard to perceive his inherent domineering nature and audacity.

Meanwhile.

Down in the hall.

The hotel general manager is anxiously instructing the guestroom manager, "Mr. Nie has gone upstairs, he doesn't like to be disturbed, have the waiters quickly vacate!"

"Yes, Manager Li!"

Soon, the elevator reached the top floor.

Ling Yuxin felt slightly nervous, thinking that her two subordinates were probably waiting down in the hall.

Weighing the pros and cons, she decisively followed the man out of the elevator.

The top floor was rather quiet, the man ahead strolled leisurely, and the direction he was heading towards was the presidential suite of the hotel!

Suppressing her uncertainty while standing in place, Ling Yuxin suddenly heard footsteps coming from the staircase on the other side.

Could it be that those two hadn't gone downstairs, but instead followed them upstairs?

Without further hesitation, Ling Yuxin fixed her gaze ahead and made a swift judgment within mere seconds.

The moment the man took out the room card and tried opening the door, Ling Yuxin sprinted swiftly towards him, and then flung herself onto the man, shut the door, and quickly locked it with one swift motion.

All of this happened so quickly, like a bolt of lightning.

Feeling danger behind him, the man didn't even have time to turn around before being pushed into the room by Ling Yuxin.

Ignorant to the rapid progression of events, he slowly turned around, looking at the initiator of all this, "Who are you?"
