7 PM, Galaxy Hotel.

Late summer night, a gentle breeze blew, and the stars were exceptionally bright, scattered in every corner of the dark sky. When one looked up, there was always a sense of beauty that was out of reach but close at hand.

Song Guo was drunk. When she walked out of the banquet hall, her footsteps were a little unsteady, and her slim and graceful body swayed, as if she would fall at any moment.

She was wearing a pair of ten-centimeter high heels. Just as she was about to lose her balance, a pair of strong arms hugged her waist.

She was shocked and let out a short scream.

After she held the pair of strong arms and stood firm, she raised her beautiful and blurred eyes and looked at the tall and straight man standing under the Magnolia tree.

At first, she thought it was an illusion after being drunk.

But it was obviously not. The man standing in front of her was indeed him, Lin Nancheng.

This should be the second time she saw him after she left Xin Qiao for him to return to the country alone.

The last time they met was when she was almost bullied by a few drunkards in a narrow alley.

When she was at her most hopeless and helpless, he walked towards her against the light and shadow. He was like a God who had descended from the sky, but also like a devil who had walked out of the deepest hell. His face was filled with uncontrollable anger. A few swift punches and kicks.. He beat those drunkards half to death. They lay on the ground and wailed incessantly, begging for mercy.

Then, he brought her back to his private residence.

She took a hot shower, changed his clothes, and ran away without saying goodbye.

After that night, he did not appear again, and she did not contact him again.

She thought that he had tacitly agreed to the end of the relationship. or it could be said that when she left Xin Qiao and went back to the country alone, she was already prepared to break up with him.

Whether he was really interested in her or wanted to find a woman to deal with the family, she was not qualified to continue with him.

This was her luck. Of course, it was also her sorrow.

Fortunately, she did not have to continue her one-sided love.

The sad thing was that she would spend the rest of her life in loneliness.

Perhaps no one could survive without love.

However, with love, she had to pretend to be indifferent. This was the most torturous.

“thank you, director Lin. ”

She stepped back slightly and kept a certain distance from him. There was even a slight smile on the corner of her lips, as if she was really thanking him for his generous rescue. From the beginning to the end, not a single drop of water was leaked.

And this expression was unfamiliar and distant.

Lin Nancheng narrowed his eyes slightly and frowned his beautiful straight brows. Then, he replied with a low and hoarse voice, “you’re welcome. ”

After saying that, he strode forward with his vigorous and powerful long legs towards the direction of the banquet hall.

When he brushed past her, he did not even look at her from the corner of his eyes. It seemed that meeting her just now was really just a coincidence.

Song Guo only reacted a little slower when he had walked for a long distance. She then jogged to catch up with him.

Lin Nancheng did not slow down when he heard the footsteps behind him. It was not until she caught up with him breathlessly and stretched out her hands to block his path that he had no choice but to stop and look at the petite and beautiful woman in front of him “Miss Song, is there anything else? ”

“Why did you come to the Song Family’s banquet? ”

“We have business dealings. ”

He replied and continued to walk past her, but was stopped by her again “Lin Nancheng, don’t do anything rash. My father likes to be unreasonable, and his mouth is poisonous. There are many rich and famous people from the upper class. Don’t lose face because I angered him… ”

“Miss Song. ”

Lin Nancheng didn’t hear her finish and interrupted her softly, “do I look like someone who likes self-abuse or someone who likes to be abused? ”

“I’m here to talk about business. It’s really not for you. ”

He moved closer to her and reached out to hold her sharp chin. “also… when did miss song become so willing to flatter herself? Do you think you have the temperament and looks to make men fall head over heels for you? ”

His eyes darted back and forth on her body before he finally said, “the answer is obvious, no. ”

His words were nothing more than telling her not to flatter herself.

Tonight’s banquet was on the surface a family banquet organized by the Song family, but in reality, it was a private matchmaking event organized by Song Qishan for her.

As long as one had money and power, it was within the scope of Song Qishan’s choice of husband.

And the current Lin Nancheng was only a destitute noble who had lost his power. He had a false reputation and was definitely one of the People Song Qishan disliked the most.

Moreover… …

Their relationship could only be considered as having slept for two nights at most. How could it be worth for him to make such a huge sacrifice for her?

Was He asking for trouble?

He had never done anything crazy for another woman.

Of course, other than warmth.

Therefore, she would not be an exception to him. At most, she would be special.

Song Guo’s outstretched arms slowly drooped down. She lowered her head to look at her toes. Her voice was slightly tipsy and sweet. “I’m sorry. I thought it was too sudden. I thought you were here for me… ”

At this point, she raised her head and looked at him with her starry eyes “I may have drunk too much wine and lost my mind. That’s why I said those words just now. Anyway, I’m sorry. We have nothing to do with each other. We’re not even boyfriend and girlfriend… I’m… I’m completely baffled. ”

She smiled and stood beside him. “please come in. My Dad loves to TALK BUSINESS WITH PEOPLE. You’re so good at business, so you shouldn’t lack topics. ”

Lin Nancheng raised his eyebrows and looked at her for a while. In the end, he didn’t say anything and continued to walk towards the Banquet Hall.

Song Guo stood where she was and looked at his back. After a long while, she reached out and patted her face. She was annoyed at herself for thinking too highly of herself just now.

She woke up in the garden for a while before returning to the banquet hall. Under Song Qishan’s leadership, she met one young and promising second generation of the plutocrats, third generation of the aristocratic families, and fourth generation of the Red Army. They didn’t even give her a chance to breathe.

It was as if they wished they could marry her off immediately, as long as they could exchange her for money.

Occasionally, when Song Guo was tired, she would look at the most dazzling man in the crowd. However, with just a glance, she would shift her gaze away without leaving a trace.

Things that did not belong to her, no matter how much she wanted them, could not belong to her.

He knew that Lin Nancheng’s downfall was only temporary. He would soon become the object of everyone’s desire. Perhaps he was too clear about the gap between the two of them, so even if she drank wine, she could still maintain this rare sobriety.

It was not easy. It really was not easy.

The banquet lasted until two o’clock in the morning before the curtain fell.

And just as he said, that man just came to discuss business. From the beginning to the end, he did not even look at her. With a swing of his knife, he cut off everything related to her.

Or perhaps it was not accurate to say that. He did not need to swing his knife. He just needed to turn around and forget.

It was clear that she wanted to draw the line and break up with him, but he really did it. She also felt that he was too cold and heartless. There was no nostalgia at all. He simply had no humanity.

Such ambivalence made her doubt whether she broke up for the sake of breaking up or to test him.

Love was indeed the most difficult subject.

Lin Nancheng drank a lot of wine and sat on the SOFA in the corner without moving for a long time.

After Song Guo accompanied Song Qishan to send off all the guests, she realized that he was sitting there, as if he had drunk too much wine and was very uncomfortable.

Out of politeness, she wanted to walk over, but Song Qishan pulled her back. “The driver is already waiting. Let’s go. ”

“Dad, we’re all guests here. You can’t treat us like this. ”

Song Qishan’s eyes widened. “Song Guo, don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. All the men at tonight’s banquet are fine, but not him. ”

Song Guo pursed her lips and used a lot of strength to break free from his hand. She said in a low voice, “Dad, do you really think that your woman is some beautiful woman who can topple countries and cities? So that all men will miss her? Don’t worry, she has someone she likes. Even if your daughter sticks her head up to him, he will not like her. So, can you rest assured? ”

After saying this, he didn’t wait for Song Qishan’s reply and walked towards Lin Nancheng.

Song Qishan frowned and looked at Lin Nancheng in the corner. In the end, he turned around and left.

Song Guo was wearing a ten-centimeter high heel. She landed on the marble floor that was so bright that it could be seen. The sound of her footsteps attracted Lin Nancheng’s deep black eyes, which were a little sluggish after he got drunk.

He looked at her walking towards him step by step against the Orange Light. She was like a fairy that had fallen into the mortal world. She was so clean that it was as if there was not a trace of smoke and dust from the mortal world.

“Director Lin, how are you? Are you okay? ”

Lin Nancheng sank his broad back into the back of the SOFA and shook his head. “Not too good. My stomach hurts. ”

“Oh, give me your phone. I’ll call your personal secretary and ask her to pick you up. ”

He did not answer her after she said that. He did not even react.

She thought that he had drunk too much, so she did not wait any longer. She directly rummaged through the pockets of his suit and said as she searched “If you feel terrible, it’s better to ask your personal secretary to take you to the hospital to see the cause of your stomach discomfort or to go to the pharmacy to get some stomach medicine. Don’t stand there stiffly, it’s easy to damage your stomach… ”

She searched for a while, but didn’t find any trace of his phone in the pocket of his suit jacket, so she began to rummage through the pocket of his suit pants.

Just as her hand touched the pocket of his suit pants, the man’s big hand grabbed her small hand.

Song Guo was stunned, and she slowly looked at him through the Orange Light.

Lin Nancheng’s sharp eyebrows were tightly knitted, and his well-defined face was full of an ice-cold and breathtaking aura.

Only then did Song Guo realize that her words and actions just now had exceeded the concern of a host for a guest. It was more like an uncontrollable concern between lovers.

With this understanding, her hands seemed to have been electrocuted as she retracted them and quickly maintained a distance from him “then… I’ll go and help CEO Lin call a car. Look at me, CEO Lin isn’t a child anymore. If you feel uncomfortable, you should be able to take care of yourself. I’m really sorry for worrying about you again. ”

After saying this, she stood up and was about to get the person who arranged the cars to find another car.

Just as she took a step forward, she heard the man behind her call her name in a low voice. “Song Guo… ”

“Hmm? ”

She turned around to look at him, as if asking him what he was calling her for.

Lin Nancheng’s deep eyes stared at her without blinking. After a long while, he said, “Song Guo, marry me. ”

Song Guo felt as if she had been struck by lightning. For a moment, she couldn’t even move.

She heard her heart beat too fast, as if it could jump out of her chest at any moment.

After a while, she smiled and said, “director Lin, you’re drunk. ”

“really? Do I look drunk? ”

“I don’t look drunk, but I’m already drunk from what I said. ”

After saying that, she turned around again.

This time, she had learned her lesson. She quickened her pace as if she was prepared not to look back.

She kept reminding herself that even if he called her name in a lonely voice, she had to be indifferent.

Reality proved that she had done it.

She had done it without looking back, and she had also done it indifferently.

But what she did not expect was that this time, he caught up from behind and quickly dragged her to a corner.

She knew that that direction was the direction of the hotel’s high-class suite.

If she followed him there, there would be no turning back.

She struggled desperately, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not beat his strength. In the end, she was directly dragged into one of the high-class suites by him.

Lin Nancheng had never been a person who liked to sit and wait for death. If he sensed that something was out of control, he would immediately retreat in order to advance and turn the situation into an offensive, just like now.

Song Guo realized that she had been deceived by him and was terrified. “Lin Nancheng, quickly let me out, or I will immediately call the police and say that you were illegally detained, that you forced someone to have sex with you, that you… ”

When the man heard her threatening words, he did not show any expression. He even elegantly reached out to take off the suit jacket on his body and then began to unbutton his white shirt. He took a step forward and walked towards her bit by bit He was not threatened by her at all.

Song Guo retreated bit by bit, forgetting what she wanted to say. In the end, she could only grab the pillow on the bed and swing it at him. “Don’t come over… ”

The man easily caught the pillow with one hand and threw it on the ground. Then, he continued to approach her with his long legs until she had nowhere to retreat and fell on the king size bed in the middle of the room. Only then did he stop and climb onto the bed With his pair of built-up arms, he completely surrounded her.

Song Guo swallowed her saliva and instinctively covered her chest with her small hands. “Lin Nancheng, stop fooling around. If my dad finds out that you dragged me into your room, he might try to blackmail you. Even if you don’t think for yourself, you have to think for the Lin family’s foundation… ”

“Song Guo, do you know what you’re talking about? ”

“… what?”

Lin Nancheng lowered his head and kissed her thin lips. “Your tone sounds more like you’re trying to seduce me. ”

“Lin Nancheng… ”

She avoided his kiss and pushed his chest with her small hands. “Don’t do this. ”

“Don’t do what? HMM? ”

His kiss became deeper and deeper, not giving her a chance to think at all.

It was not until she felt a cold touch on her skin that she realized that her clothes had already been taken off unknowingly.

She began to struggle violently again, but the more she avoided him, the more excited the man became.

He was not a man who was good at taking care of women. After drinking, he could not wait to be violent and did not give her a chance to prepare at all.

The love affair went on for a long time. It was so long that she did not even have the strength to raise her hand. Only then did he end with satisfaction.

There was a thin layer of sweat on song Guo’s forehead. Her Long chestnut-colored hair stuck to her forehead along with the sweat. She had a messy and beautiful feeling after being ravaged by someone.

She looked pitiful, but it made people want to continue to bully her.

He kissed her sweaty forehead and kissed her red and swollen lips before saying in a low voice, “Song Guo, before entering this door, I’ve already asked someone to inform your father and all the media in Lin city. In other words, you have to put on your clothes and face the storm outside with me. ”

Song Guo frowned and reached out to beat his hard chest a few times. “Lin Nancheng, YOU’RE CRAZY! ”

“crazy for you. Don’t you like it? ”

He looked at her deeply before saying, “I thought you would like it very much. ”

Song Guo sat up with difficulty and glared at him. “Lin Nancheng, I think you like this perverted way of torturing people. My clothes have been ruined by you. How can I go out to meet people later? You’re really killing me… ”

As she spoke, she started to look for clothes. However, the moment she turned around, she was pulled into the man’s arms. “Song Guo, when you go out later, push everything onto me. Do you remember? ”

“Haven’t you heard of the saying ‘it takes two to tango’ ? Even if I push everything onto you, what’s the use? ”

“What do you mean? Do you want me to say that you took the initiative to pounce on me? ”

“Lin Nancheng… ”

She shouted his name, but as if she remembered something, she suddenly started to punch and kick him. However, because she did not have much strength, it was like tickling him.

He slowly wore his shirt, which was already wrinkled, and his voice was as gentle as water. “What’s wrong? ”

“Why didn’t you do anything just now? ”

“have you ever seen a man who forced himself on a woman? ”

His self-righteousness made Song Guo speechless. In the end, she could only push him away fiercely and step aside to put on her clothes.

About five minutes later, the two of them finished putting on their clothes, but the effect of wearing them was completely different.

Lin Nancheng’s suit pants only had a slight wrinkle, and other than that, he was still well-dressed. On the other hand, her skirt was torn into pieces by him, barely covering the important parts. In fact, the effect of wearing it was even more seductive than not wearing it. This contrast.. It gave her a feeling that he did it on purpose.

Lin Nancheng looked at her holding the quilt and sitting in the middle of the big bed, looking at him angrily. He smiled and then pulled the quilt over. “Don’t be angry. I’ve asked someone to prepare clothes. They should be arriving soon. ”

“Lin Nancheng, what do you want to do? ”

“The answer is very obvious. For… to fuck you. ”

The dirty words he said did not make people feel uncomfortable. Instead, they carried a soul-stirring sexiness and charm. When she heard it, she could not help but tremble. In the end, she said angrily, “Lin Nancheng, what do you mean? Do you really think I’m not bad and want to try it with me? ”

“Or… is it just to give Xin Qiao a complete family and give her family an explanation, so you have no choice but to pretend to be polite to me? ”

Lin Nancheng did not say anything. Instead, he lifted a strand of her hair and sniffed it “Guoguo, you’ve asked me this question more than once. I seem to have told you many times. I’m very comfortable with you. I want you by my side. Moreover, I will give you the position of Mrs. Lin. Even after marriage, I can keep myself as a jade for you, and I will never linger in a sensual place… “. “…”. “…”

“Your tone sounds like you’re making a deal with me, not marrying a wife. ”

She looked at him and spoke in a low, low voice “Lin Nancheng, I know that the Lin family’s predicament is only temporary. You will soon allow the Lin family to stand at the peak of Lin city again, and you will once again become the object of desire. I don’t have the ability, nor do I have the beauty to charm a man… “. “…”. “…”

“In the end, you’re still finding excuses for yourself. ”

His large hand gripped her sharp jawbone tightly. “Song Guo, the night you were bullied by those drunkards, I risked my life to save you. Is this how you repay me? ”

“Lin Nancheng, be fair. You don’t love me at all, but you want to dominate my love. May I ask why? Because I love you? ”

This was the first time she lost control, and also the first time she mentioned the word “love” without thinking.

However, there was nothing she didn’t dare to admit. She did love him very much, but just because she loved him, it didn’t mean that he could trample on her self-esteem as he pleased, nor did it mean that he could mock and ridicule her.

There was nothing wrong with loving someone, but loving the wrong person and being stubborn about it was a kind of mistake.

She did not want to continue, or rather, she did not dare to keep this relationship that would never get a response.

After all, life was short. She wanted to live her life well and did not want to stay in a “hopeless” love and die alone.

Lin Nancheng did not get angry when he heard her words. Instead, a faint smile appeared on his thin lips.

He moved closer to her and kissed the corner of her lips. “What did you just say? You love me? ”

Song Guo’s fair face quickly turned crimson. She turned her head away and stopped looking at him.

“Didn’t you just say that I violated your love? Why aren’t you saying anything now? Your tongue was taken away by the cat? ”

As he said that, he moved closer to her, as if he wanted to make some intimate gesture.

She quickly moved away and said in a hurried voice, “Lin Nancheng, can you speak properly? ”

“I am speaking properly. If I don’t want to speak properly, believe me, you should be crying and complaining to me right now, not angrily complaining to me… ”

His words were ambiguous and caused countless ripples in her heart.

She couldn’t even tell the true thoughts in her heart. It was as if she was bewitched by him.

Song Guo pursed her lips and took a deep breath before she slowly said, “Lin Nancheng, are you done? ”
