At this moment, inside the red Ferrari FX, two beautiful faces shone like snow lotuses; their charm was undeniable, and the golden-rimmed glasses could not conceal their extraordinary elegance…
Dressed in a light purple evening gown, Lan Yue’s appearance had changed significantly compared to a year ago. Her graceful demeanor made her look like a beautiful princess.
Beside her, Liu Hua’s delicate face, which had haunted Xiao Yufan countless times, had gained a more mature charm over the past year. She was a legendary figure who dominated the business world.
“Big sister Liu Hua, I heard that the young master has returned…”
Lan Yue casually played with her long flowing hair cascading over her shoulders, her gaze growing softer. Thinking of that proud and flamboyant face, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks.
“He… has returned, hasn’t he?”
Her delicate frame trembled slightly, and Liu Hua’s slender fingers gripping the steering wheel quivered ever so slightly. A smile flickered across her lips, tinged with sorrow and bitterness.
She still remembered clearly the seductive yet teasing gaze from a year ago, and the words that had been etched into her heart. Thinking of those cold eyes, a chill crept into her heart.
The young master of the Situ family, a candidate to inherit the family’s legacy, Liu Hua finally understood how many brilliant achievements the man she had deeply wounded truly possessed…
As for herself, as a pawn of the Liu family, what she was sacrificing was not only her remarkable business talent, but also her body and soul.
“He’s back. Then, big sister Liu Hua, are you going to…”
Lan Yue’s words trailed off, her eyes filled with compassion as she looked at Liu Hua’s breathtaking beauty. To outsiders, Liu Hua seemed dazzling and successful, but beneath her mask lay hidden wounds that no one noticed—sometimes even her own happiness was left to fate.
The Liu family was facing a severe financial crisis and needed the Situ family’s support to survive. To secure the Situ family’s assistance, the Liu family had sold Liu Hua’s lifetime happiness to the Situ family without her knowledge.
“That spoiled brat still isn’t worthy of being my man!”
Cold wind blew through the car window, and Liu Hua’s smile at the corner of her mouth appeared so stubborn. Becoming Xiao Yufan’s fiancée had never been her wish. Why should she become a sacrificed pawn, especially when that man was once the person she hated the most?
Tears slid down her cheeks, only to be dried moments later by the wind, leaving faint traces on Liu Hua’s beautiful face. Although she was unwilling deep inside, she still felt powerless. After all, even the strongest woman has a vulnerable side…
“Actually, he’s not as bad as you think. I’ve heard from Old Master Situ about the young master. He’s been through more than we can imagine!”
As familiar contours appeared in her mind, Lan Yue’s gentle smile carried a unique brilliance. A year had passed, and she felt a sense of anticipation—wondering what the man would look like when they met again.
Liu Hua was taken aback; she hadn’t expected Lan Yue to know so much about Xiao Yufan. No wonder the girl had been with the Situ family for quite some time. But no matter what others said, Liu Hua’s preconceived judgment of Xiao Yufan could not be changed.
Of course, Xiao Yufan himself was completely unaware of what was happening. He had no idea that he had suddenly gained a fiancée, and even less that she was the very woman who had made him lose all interest in her…
The group of four soon arrived at a luxurious club. Naturally, since he was treating three women to dinner, it had to be a place of high status. This club, named Yuanju Renjian (Gathering of Fate), was absolutely on par with the highest-class clubs in Beijing, such as the famous “Tian Shang Ren Jian” (Paradise on Earth).
As they entered the club, Xiao Yufan took out his Yuanju Renjian VIP card, immediately drawing everyone’s attention. Many beautiful women’s eyes sparkled with excitement, and some scantily clad women were already getting restless.
This VIP card was the highest-level membership card in the entire Yuanju Renjian. No one knew its actual value, but everyone in Beijing’s business circles knew it was a symbol of status. Unfortunately for Xiao Yufan, only a few of these top-tier cards existed, and he happened to possess one.
The club itself belonged to the Situ family, and Xiao Yufan’s card had been given to him by his grandfather. However, this was undoubtedly a bit ostentatious. Feeling the many gazes fixed upon him, Xiao Yufan could only shake his head with a smile.
“I can already see piles of gold floating before my eyes. If I can land this pretty boy, I can sleep on money for the rest of my life…”
“Don’t be ridiculous. With your looks, you’d scare him off? Please, someone like him deserves only me!”
Before one woman’s voice had finished, another immediately followed, and many lustful eyes were already filled with fantasies…
However, soon their desire to approach Xiao Yufan was shattered. Before they could get close, they felt an icy chill from behind, instantly making them retreat. This cold and sharp aura came from Tian Xuan.
Only then did everyone shift their attention from that purple-gold VIP card. When their gazes landed on the three women’s enchanting faces, both men and women were struck with awe.
Tian Xuan’s beauty came from an icy coldness deep within; Qin Menglu’s beauty radiated a softness from her soul; as for Yu Yihan, her beauty stemmed from a refreshing temperament, gentle yet carrying a compelling air of heroism.
Many eyes stared fixedly at the three alluring figures, their minds filled with fantasies. However, none dared to make any moves, as Tian Xuan’s presence gave them a very dangerous feeling…
Startled, Xiao Yufan could only bitterly smile. Having many beautiful women around wasn’t always a good thing, especially when those women were such stunning beauties.
“Sir, may I ask which private room you’d prefer…”
At this moment, a senior receptionist from the club approached, looking at the four of them with a respectful expression. She understood the significance of the purple-gold VIP card far better than anyone else present.
“We’ll just have dinner in the main hall. Do you have any objections?”
Xiao Yufan’s gaze swept across the three women before asking, and upon hearing this, the receptionist was momentarily stunned. A person holding a purple-gold VIP card actually chose to dine in the main hall!
“I thought it was someone important, but turns out he’s just a kept pretty boy. Dining in the main hall, how creative…”
Before the receptionist could speak, a discordant voice rang out. The tone was sharp, filled with obvious disdain.
As the words fell, everyone’s eyes lit up, eagerly anticipating the drama about to unfold…
