“Don’t you dare! Don’t you dare!” Ling Xiusi panicked at the words “leave you.” Tightening his grip on Yan Susu’s wrist, he bellowed wildly, “Yan Susu, you can’t even come close to repaying your debt to me, not in this lifetime! I won’t let you leave me!”

Watching the irrational man acting up in front of her, Yan Susu felt a sudden urge to laugh. “Ling Xiusi, how can you stop me? What right do you have to keep me from leaving you? My debt to you has long been repaid. I want to leave you, to get away from you forever!”

“I won’t allow it. If you dare to leave me, you can forget about finding your mother, ever!”

The ludicrous statement made Yan Susu burst out laughing, “Haha…ha, Ling Xiusi, you are too funny. If I stay with you any longer, I’ll end up dead, so why should I bother to look for her? Also, do you think that you’re the only wealthy person on the face of this earth? I could easily find a man who is wealthier, more powerful, and more influential than you. Do you know that?”

“I dare you to try! Yan Susu, you shameless woman. You can forget about ever getting away from me in this lifetime. I am the one who decides whether I want you, and I am the one who decides whether to abandon you. I forbid you to leave me!”

This man was truly out of control!

At that moment, Yan Susu wondered why she had put up with him for the past six years. This was a man she did not recognize. The Ling Xiusi that she had known—the man who had pampered her, loved her, and sworn to take care of her for the rest of her life—had disappeared long ago!

“Ling Xiusi, let me go, or I will call the police. One, we are not living together. Two, we are not legally married. Three, we have no outstanding debts between us. If you keep coming after me, I will sue you for harassment!”

“Police? Yan Susu, do you really want to come up against the Ling family?”


That sneer on his face made Yan Susu want to vomit. She said defiantly, “I can’t do it, but the influential man that I slept with last night could.”

Although she had no idea who that man was, she was sure that it was not Mr. Li. Otherwise, how would she have gotten such a good night’s sleep?

Also, the clothes that she was wearing were all tailor-made, a clear sign that the man who owned them was very wealthy.

“Who is it?” Ling Xiusi demanded angrily. Who was it that dared to use his possession?

“Young Mr. Lu, Lu Zhanxiu.” At that moment, Yan Susu could only think of Lu Zhanxiu, the man she had met the day before. All she wanted was to give Ling Xiusi a brutal kick to his ego and then leave that unfriendly place as quickly as she could.

Alas, the moment she uttered the words, the crowd surrounding her burst out in mockery and laughter.

“Hahaha, this woman must be out of her mind to claim that she slept with Young Mr. Lu.”

“Doesn’t everyone in T City know that Young Mr. Lu abstains from any relationship with the opposite sex? And with that face of hers, she is not even fit to carry Young Mr. Lu’s shoes!”

“This must be the funniest joke of the year. I have to post this online to share the fun with everyone.”

Trying very hard to suppress her laughter, Yan Tingting looked worried as she faced Yan Susu. “Sis, I know that you have suffered a big blow, but Young Mr. Lu is a very influential person in the upper echelons of society. We cannot afford to offend him…”

“Shut up, you!” Yan Susu yelled at her coldly.

She knew very well that she had uttered the name of someone untouchable, but then again, there was not one person present who could get Lu Zhanxiu to come out and call her bluff.

All she had to do was to stand firm on her claim, and no one would dare say otherwise!

“Sis, I’m sorry. I was just worried that you might be inviting trouble for yourself…”


“Yan Susu, stop making a public spectacle of yourself. Go on home right now!” Impatiently, Ling Xiusi grabbed hold of Yan Susu, intending to drag her away. He felt extremely embarrassed to have his name muddied in public like this.

“Ling Xiusi, didn’t you say that I was already tainted? Won’t this contaminate your hand? Besides, I just slept with a man last night…”

Yan Susu’s words consumed Ling Xiusi like a burning fire, and he lashed out, shoving her away violently.

The impact of his push sent Yan Susu flying backward.

“Sis…” Yan Tingting faked a low sound of concern, contradicted by the faint laugh lines around her eyes. She had absolutely no intention of helping Yan Susu.

Meanwhile, the crowd of onlookers simply ogled and reveled in the unfolding drama.

Yan Susu shut her eyes, preparing herself for the pain that she was about to endure.

“Well? Are you too comfortable to want to stand up?” Lu Zhanxiu looked with interest at the pint-sized woman and her slightly flickering eyelashes.

She had been brilliant in her demonstration of spunk and bravado!

In that instant, Yan Susu opened her eyes and looked straight into a face so breathtakingly good-looking that she instinctively let out a panicked squeak.
