An’an’s supported herself against the wall and she walked out of the walk-in wardrobe slowly.

In the room, Wang Yingying was tidying up her clothes when she heard some footsteps. She turned her head around and spotted An’an.

An’an’s alluring face was all pale, she seemed low-spirited and didn’t bother to check anyone out. She opened the room door and left.

She had left.

Wang Yingying gandered at Lu Yan, making a snide remark. “She’s left, it’s happening for real this time round. She won’t come back anymore.”

Lu Yan pursed his lips, lowering his eyes and he didn’t speak.

Wang Yingying arrived beside Lu Yan, lifting her hand and giving him one tight slap on the face.

Slap! The crisp sound of a slap resounded in the entire room. Lu Yan was slapped hard.

“Lu Yan, our engagement banquet is called off. You and An’an are both sick in the mind!” Wang Yingying screamed furiously before storming out of the room.

Wang Yingying was the daughter of a wealthy family and had received elite education since young. Lu Yan had asked for her to moan loudly just now and not do anything else. Her only task would be to moan.

There was a girl hidden away in the walk-in wardrobe, he was making use of her.

It was the greatest form of humiliation for a woman.

She had understood everything, Lu Yan and An’an were unusual. They had secretly began a taboo relationship even with their great age difference. They were both sick in the mind.

She wasn’t able to enter their world and also didn’t want to participate in their affairs. And so, their engagement would be called off.

…

At the engagement banquet.

An’an had gone back downstairs and found Tang Mo’er, speaking softly, “Little sister-in-law.”

Tang Mo’er turned around, noticing An’an’s pale face and downcast demeanor, she was a little confused. She didn’t know who An’an was, but she felt a dull ache in her chest. On instinct, she was concerned about An’an and went into a state of panic. “What happened?”

An’an’s legs weakened and she slid downwards.

Tang Mo’er rapidly stretched out her arms, getting hold of An’an’s frail body. “What exactly happened… to…”

Tang Mo’er gaped at An’an in silence. That was because she had noticed the love bites peeking through An’an’s low-cut evening dress.

Tang Mo’er’s heart squeezed tight and she hugged An’an tightly, prodding her, “Were you taken advantage of by someone? Don’t be afraid, tell me who is it, I’ll confront him now, I’ll…”

An’an fluttered her luscious eyelashes while looking in Tang Mo’er’s eyes. “Shh, little sister-in-law, don’t tell anyone about it. I did it of my own accord and now I’ve truly lost all hope. I just want to leave this place, little sister-in-law, let’s just head home…”

Tang Mo’er contemplated for a moment before she nodded her head in agreement. “Alright, let’s go home right now!”

But a huge palm extended over, lifting An’an up before she could even realize it.

Tang Mo’er’s eyes brightened with interest, she had found her pillar of strength. “Mr Gu, you’re here.”

Gu Mohan took a glance towards An’an, pursing his lips and he put up a stern front. “An’an, are you done throwing a tantrum? Why do you drive yourself into a corner to the point you have to give up after hurting yourself all over?”

An’an evaded Gu Mohan’s berating stare, tears started to well up in her eyes.

Tang Mo’er had noticed the unusual atmosphere and she promptly tugged on Gu Mohan’s sleeve, pouting her cherry red lips.

She didn’t want him to reprimand An’an.

Tang Mo’er’s kittenish and coy ways had worked well, Gu Mohan was evidently loosening up. “That’s enough said, let’s head home.”

A built figure appeared in his peripheral vision, it was Lu Yan coming down from the stairs.

Lu Yan had changed into a clean black shirt paired with trousers. He glanced at Gu Mohan before his eyes were riveted on An’an.

Gu Mohan narrowed his eyes, he brought An’an and Tang Mo’er away.

“Mr Gu, are we heading home now?”

“No, we’re going somewhere else first.”

“Where?”

“You’ll know once we arrive.”

…

Lu Yan walked down the stairs and he issued instructions to his underlings. The engagement banquet was to be called off.

A conversation which took place between two men resounded in his ears—-

“I’ll tell you a secret, I saw Miss An’an walking down the stairs with a weird posture.”

“What do you mean by weird posture?”

“It seemed like… her virginity was taken away…”

“How could that be? Miss An’an doesn’t seem to have a boyfriend yet. Moreover, Master Yan and President Gu are behind her back and they would protect her at all costs. How could any man even get close to her?”

“Lemme tell you something, Master Yan actually went upstairs earlier on.”

“You’re claiming that Master Yan was the one who took away Miss An’an’s…”

The two men ended their conversation abruptly after feeling a noxious stare coming from behind. They turned their head around and noticed Lu Yan standing right behind them.

“Master Yan, I’m sorry, take it that we didn’t say anything…” The two men scurried away like frightened rabbits.

Lu Yan watched as the two men swiftly left the scene. With one hand in his trouser pocket while the other was holding a glass of wine, he took a sip and though the robust flavor of the wine had exploded on his palate, it still wasn’t enough to conceal the wonderful taste An’an left behind in his mouth.

Although he hadn’t been in his right mind earlier, those ten minutes were unbearable. He couldn’t help but recall those moments in his mind once again.

His mind was filled with the scene as long as he closed his eyes. It was so vivid and his heart was drumming loudly, feeling a burning sensation all over him.

Damn it.

He was capable of handling even aphrodisiacal substances and yet in An’an’s presence, he wasn’t able to resist the temptation.

…

At the airport.

Lu Qi’er was seated in the airport lounge, she was waiting for Lu Jinwen’s arrival. The private jet was ready for departure and once her Daddy arrived, she would be able to return to the Capital.

She couldn’t help but feel a little smug, she would be able to start concocting schemes as long as she returned to Capital. She would be able to have a fresh start.

Gu Mohan would definitely have appeared together with Tang Mo’er at Lu Yan’s engagement banquet. She wasn’t an imbecile, she would never allow her father to meet Tang Mo’er.

Lu Jinwen had originally planned to attend Lu Yan’s engagement banquet and had already planned to depart only a day after. However, Lu Qi’er claimed to have felt sick and insisted on departing that day and so their schedule was brought forward.

Tang Mo’er can dream on about meeting Lu Jinwen. She had many different ways to stop them from meeting each other for at least a month, by that time Tang Mo’er would already have been dead from the love pea poison.

After Tang Mo’er died, she would have an irrefutable status as the treasured daughter of the Lu family.

No one could take it away from her.

Heavy footsteps could be heard, Lu Qi’er lifted her eyes and noticed that her father had arrived.

Lu Jinwen wore a black coat with a monochrome suit inside. His trousers were clean-cut and he walked over, his glistening leather shoes were on the marble ground and the sound of his footsteps was rhythmic.

Butler Ye had tagged along behind him, carrying Lu Jinwen’s belongings.

Lu Qi’er fixed her gaze on Lu Jinwen. Though her Daddy was already 50 years old, he didn’t seem to have any traces of age on his face. It was clear he had been a hunk in his 30s and his almond-shaped eyes radiated undertones of something more sinister. Now that he had aged, he was like a fine wine, he had a greater aura compared to before and he was extremely charismatic.

The famed Young Master Lu from the Capital was undiminished.

“Daddy, you’re finally here, let’s board the plane.” Lu Qi’er smiled brightly as she walked over.
