Watching Xiao Yufan’s movements, Liu Hua closed her eyes resignedly, tears streaming silently down her cheeks. As an adopted daughter of the Liu family, many things were beyond her control…
Watching Xiao Yufan’s actions, Liu Hua resignedly closed her eyes, two clear tears streaming down her cheeks. As a woman adopted by the Liu family, many things were beyond her control…
Yu Yihan also stared intently at Xiao Yufan, her delicate hands unconsciously clenching. She murmured to herself, “Is this big pervert really going to do that kind of thing in front of me? This is an office! Shameless, big scoundrel!”
Countless times she wanted to stand up and give Xiao Yufan a piece of her mind, but when Yu Yihan sensed his mood, she wisely held her tongue, feeling that Xiao Yufan probably wouldn’t be so impulsive.
“Don’t think of yourself as some noble person. In my eyes, you’re just a pawn of the Liu family, or perhaps only fit to be someone’s plaything…”
Tilting his head slightly, Xiao Yufan gently lifted Liu Hua’s chin, his eyes filled with a teasing light. No matter how beautiful this woman was, he no longer felt any interest.
“Even if I am just a pawn, I’m still far better than a spoiled brat like you who relies on family power to succeed…”
A trace of bright red blood seeped from the corner of Liu Hua’s mouth. Though her eyes had dimmed, they now held a hint of ferocity when she looked at Xiao Yufan.
“Is that so? I can tear the Liu family apart, while you can only try to patch up the holes. Where exactly are you better than me? The Liu family is just a branch of our Situ family. Do you really think you have the right to be arrogant?”
Xiao Yufan forcefully straightened that dizzyingly beautiful face, letting out a cold laugh. He greedily inhaled the scent emanating from Liu Hua’s body…
“Haha, better where? The company I built from scratch earns over a hundred million in pure profit each year. And you? Aside from squandering money that isn’t yours, what use are you?”
Hearing Xiao Yufan admit he was from the Situ family, Liu Hua took a step back. Yu Yihan was even more shocked, her delicate frame trembling slightly. She finally understood why Xiao Yufan was so confident.
“I don’t need to be of any use to play you like a fiddle. Wouldn’t you call that strength?”
Xiao Yufan let out a wild, unrestrained laugh, pulling Liu Hua into his arms. He gazed down at those enchanting eyes, a smile as intoxicating as wine on his lips. To defile a goddess like a prostitute—now that was something that gave a man immense satisfaction.
“You’re shameless!” Liu Hua finally erupted in anger, but to Xiao Yufan, her wide eyes and furrowed brows only added to her beauty. He could guess that this woman was the Liu family’s way of apologizing.
“You think I’m shameless?” Xiao Yufan chuckled. “Not only am I shameless, I’m also despicable, vulgar, and tasteless—a standard pervert. When I see a woman like you, I just want to possess you completely!”
Liu Hua hadn’t expected Xiao Yufan to be so self-aware. She was so angry she couldn’t speak. If looks could kill, Xiao Yufan would have died a thousand times over.
Hearing Xiao Yufan’s monologue, Yu Yihan couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Though the atmosphere was awkward, based on her understanding of Xiao Yufan, he probably wouldn’t cause any real trouble here.
But then Xiao Yufan’s actions shattered Yu Yihan’s expectations, as she saw him press his lips against Liu Hua’s in front of her…
“Doesn’t it hurt?” Xiao Yufan shamelessly sucked on Liu Hua’s thin lips, the bright red blood at their junction all too obvious. After a long while, their lips parted, and Xiao Yufan’s face grew even more arrogant.
“I’ll just consider it a dog bite!”
Liu Hua’s icy voice slowly squeezed out, each word striking Xiao Yufan’s weary heart, gradually exposing his flaws.
This was the first time he had been so thoroughly humiliated by a woman. To Xiao Yufan, it was a blatant mockery…
“The Liu family will be fine. I’ll have my grandfather stop the pressure. Consider it payment for this dog’s bite.”
Xiao Yufan’s hand slowly withdrew, his voice cold and devoid of emotion, growing hoarse and indifferent. Every word Liu Hua spoke shattered the dignity his grandfather had bestowed upon him. In the end, he was still someone who relied on his grandfather and his family.
“Also, I don’t want to see anyone from the Liu family in front of me again! If anyone causes trouble behind the scenes, I’ll make sure the entire Liu family vanishes…”
His words carried a tone of finality. Xiao Yufan slumped back into his seat, his thoughts churning…
In the end, he resolved to make himself even more perfect, because some things couldn’t just rely on his grandfather—they required his own strength.
At first, Liu Hua looked stunned, but then her eyes filled with panic. She knew she had truly angered this man, and she feared the Liu family would suffer greatly. Yet, she still held onto a sliver of hope, wishing Xiao Yufan would keep his word.
Standing up to usher her out, Yu Yihan’s emotions slowly settled. Watching Xiao Yufan’s pensive expression, she felt an inexplicable pain in her heart. She wasn’t sure when, but this man’s shadow had already taken root in her mind.
Turning away, Liu Hua’s empty eyes lost all their luster. Her usual pride and composure were gone, and now she seemed more like a discarded woman…
“A woman who can only trade her body for benefits—do you really think you’re qualified to say such things? Don’t delude yourself into thinking the Liu family can act with impunity!”
After seeing Liu Hua out, Yu Yihan’s gentle gaze turned cold once more. Looking at this equally remarkable woman, a pang of jealousy stirred within her. Was it envy? She wasn’t sure.
Watching Yu Yihan enter the office after leaving those words, Liu Hua weakly slid down against the doorframe. She wanted to cry out loud, to release the pent-up pain, but in the end, she could only sob softly.
Liu Hua was just an adopted daughter of the Liu family. Though she appeared glamorous on the outside, only she knew the true extent of her suffering. Every time, the Liu family used her as a bargaining chip. The torment she endured was something no ordinary person could understand.
Even she didn’t know why she despised Xiao Yufan so much. Perhaps it was because she had no respect for such a playboy, even if this man had recently brought the Liu family to its knees. She still attributed it all to the Situ family’s esteemed patriarch.
Tearful and helpless, Liu Hua’s emotions were a tangled mess. Regardless of her feelings, since Xiao Yufan had decided to stop pressuring the Liu family, her goal had been achieved. Yet, she didn’t feel the happiness she had imagined…
She had countless urges to jump up and scold Xiao Yufan thoroughly, but sensing his mood, Yu Yihan wisely chose to remain silent, feeling deep down that Xiao Yufan wouldn’t actually act on impulse.
“Don’t think of yourself as some noble person. In my eyes, you’re nothing more than a pawn of the Liu family, or even worse, just someone’s plaything…”
Xiao Yufan tilted his head slightly and gently lifted Liu Hua’s chin. His eyes carried a teasing, mocking glint, and no matter how beautiful this woman was, he had already lost any interest in her.
“Even if I’m just a pawn, I’m still light-years ahead of someone like you, who only succeeded by riding on the coattails of family power…”
A thin line of blood trickled from the corner of her mouth. Liu Hua’s gaze dimmed, but when she looked at Xiao Yufan, it carried a hint of fury.
“Is that so? I could tear the entire Liu family apart, while you can only scramble to patch up the damage. So where exactly are you better than me? The Liu family is merely a branch of our Situ family. Do you really think you have the capital to act so arrogantly?”
Xiao Yufan forcefully straightened her face, which was so stunning it could make one dizzy. He sneered coldly, greedily inhaling the fragrance emanating from Liu Hua…
“Hehe, how am I better? The company I built myself earns over a hundred million in pure profit annually, while all you do is squander money that doesn’t belong to you—what else are you good for!”
Hearing Xiao Yufan admit he was from the Situ family, Liu Hua took an involuntary step back. Yu Yihan was even more surprised, her delicate frame trembling slightly. She finally began to understand why Xiao Yufan had been so confident.
“I don’t need to be good for anything to have you dancing at my fingertips. Isn’t that a kind of power…”
Xiao Yufan laughed brazenly, pulling Liu Hua into his arms. He lowered his head to gaze into her enchanting eyes, flashing a smile as intoxicating as fine wine. It was incredibly satisfying for a man to humiliate a goddess as if she were nothing more than a prostitute.
“You’re despicable!” Liu Hua finally exploded in anger. But to Xiao Yufan, the sight of her wide eyes and furrowed brows merely revealed another kind of beauty. He could guess that this woman had been sent by the Liu family to atone for their sins.
“You think I’m despicable?” Xiao Yufan chuckled. “I’m not only despicable, but also vile, lowly, dirty, and tasteless—a classic womanizer. When I see a woman like you, I just want to possess you completely!”
Liu Hua hadn’t expected Xiao Yufan to be so self-aware. She was so furious she couldn’t speak for a moment. If looks could kill, Xiao Yufan would have died countless times already.
Hearing Xiao Yufan’s monologue, Yu Yihan couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Although the atmosphere was somewhat awkward, based on her understanding of Xiao Yufan, she felt he wouldn’t actually do anything rash here.
However, Xiao Yufan’s subsequent actions shattered Yu Yihan’s assumptions, as he actually leaned forward and kissed Liu Hua passionately on the lips in front of her…
“Does it not hurt…” Xiao Yufan shamelessly sucked on Liu Hua’s thin, delicate lips. The bright red blood was clearly visible where their mouths met. After a long while, he finally pulled away, his expression now even more arrogant.
“I’ll consider it a dog bite!”
Liu Hua’s icy voice dripped out slowly, each word striking Xiao Yufan’s already weary heart. Her words gradually exposed the worst side of him.
This was the first time a woman had made him feel so humiliated. For Xiao Yufan, it was a blatant mockery…
“The Liu family will be fine. I’ll convince my grandfather to stop pressuring them. Consider this my repayment for that dog bite.”
Xiao Yufan slowly withdrew his hand, his voice cold and devoid of emotion, his tone hoarse and indifferent. Each word Liu Hua had spoken chipped away at the dignity his grandfather had bestowed upon him. Ultimately, he was still someone who relied on his grandfather and his family.
“Also, from now on, I don’t want to see anyone from the Liu family in front of me ever again! If anyone dares to interfere secretly again, I will ensure the entire Liu family is completely wiped out…”
His words carried a tone of finality. Xiao Yufan slumped back into his chair, his mind churning with thoughts…
In the end, he resolved firmly to become even more perfect because some things couldn’t just rely on his grandfather—they required his own strength!
Her expression first showed shock, then Liu Hua’s eyes filled with panic. She knew she had truly angered this man, and she was genuinely afraid the Liu family would suffer a great disaster. Yet, she still held onto a sliver of hope, wishing Xiao Yufan would keep his word.
Standing up to signal her departure, Yu Yihan slowly regained her composure. Looking at Xiao Yufan’s thoughtful expression, an inexplicable ache stirred in her heart. She didn’t know exactly when she had begun to care about this man.
Turning around, Liu Hua’s hollow eyes were now devoid of any luster. Her usual pride and calmness had vanished completely. At this moment, she looked more like a woman who had been abandoned…
“A woman who only uses her body to gain benefits dares to speak like this? Don’t really think the Liu family can act recklessly!”
After seeing Liu Hua off, Yu Yihan’s gentle gaze turned cold once again. Looking at this equally accomplished woman before her, a strange sense of bitterness welled up inside her—was it jealousy? She wasn’t sure.
Watching Yu Yihan walk back into the office with only a few parting words, Liu Hua slid helplessly down against the doorframe. She really wanted to cry out loud, to vent all the suppressed pain from earlier, but in the end, she could only let out a quiet sob.
Liu Hua was merely the adopted daughter of the Liu family. Though her exterior appeared dazzling and glamorous, only she knew the depth of her suffering. Each time, the Liu family treated her as nothing more than a bargaining chip. The torment she endured was something no ordinary person could comprehend.
Even she didn’t know why she hated Xiao Yufan so much—perhaps because she despised men like him, the kind of privileged young masters who lived off their family’s prestige. Even though Xiao Yufan had been tormenting the Liu family for days, she still attributed all of it to the highly respected old patriarch of the Situ family.
With tear-filled eyes, Liu Hua looked so helpless. Regardless of the reasons, now that Xiao Yufan had decided to stop pressuring the Liu family, her mission had been accomplished. Yet, she didn’t feel the happiness she had imagined…
