After a few seconds of silence, Old Madam Li warned, “The Li family can only belong to Ruixu in the end!” With that, the old madam left.

After the old madam left, Li Fengyun glared at Xia Chenxing and said, “Wretched girl, just you wait!”

Xia Chenxing smiled playfully. She was not afraid at all. If he could not do anything to her in their first confrontation, what could he do in the future?

The wedding began in the most luxurious way, but ended in the most ridiculous way. The news spread throughout the wealthy circle the next day, and Xia Chenxing became the laughing stock of the wealthy wives. However, she did not care at all. As soon as she married into the Bai family, she began to eat, drink, and shop everywhere. She lived freely and happily. Such a life lasted for three years.

Three years later…

As soon as Xia Chenxing entered a private room, a black muzzle appeared on her temple. She felt the coldness on her skin and didn’t even dare to breathe. She didn’t dare to move. Her heart felt like it was about to jump out of her throat.

“Who are you?” The man with the gun asked in alarm.

Xia Chenxing was extremely nervous, but fortunately, she was an obstetrician. Her years of performing surgery had made her mentally stronger than most people, but the feeling of the gun against her head was really uncomfortable. Coupled with the faint smell of blood in the private room, she was still a little panicked. She tried to put on a smile that she thought was friendly and said, “Sir, I was actually chased here by a hooligan who wanted to take advantage of me. Can you help me?”

She was really unlucky. Xia Zhixi had tampered with her coffee. Not only that, but Xia Zhixi had also found an old man to take advantage of her. If she hadn’t left in a panic, she wouldn’t have entered this private room. She wouldn’t have ended up like this. She had to teach the mother and daughter a lesson!

But the man with the gun didn’t seem to have any intention of helping her. He even tightened his grip.

Xia Chenxing’s breath caught in her throat, and her neck stiffened. Her clenched hands were covered in cold sweat. Suddenly, her gaze fell on a man not far away. The lights in the private room were dim, and this man was sitting casually on the sofa but there was a terrifying coldness around him. His face was cold, and half of his face was hidden in the darkness, making him look even more sinister and ruthless.

Xia Chenxing swallowed. In fact, she had seen the man as soon as she entered the room. A real man had outstanding looks and temperament. It was difficult not to see him. She assumed he was the boss of the room. Her survival depended on this man. She was about to fight for herself when the man said coldly, “Xiao Qi, the usual rules.”

Hearing this, Xia Chenxing’s calves trembled. How was he going to deal with her? That wouldn’t do! She just had a few good years. The world was so big, and there were so many places she hadn’t been to. She hadn’t eaten many delicacies and spent enough money. She couldn’t die!

The moment Xiao Qi touched her shoulder, Xia Chenxing suddenly jumped forward and pounced on the man sitting on the sofa. She quickly said, “Sir, wait a moment. Your female companion is bleeding. I’m a doctor. I can help her!”

This clearly piqued the man’s interest. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Xia Chenxing appraisingly.

Xia Chenxing held her breath and resisted the fear as she looked into the man’s eyes. This man was obviously not an ordinary person, so she could only take a gamble.

The man’s cold gaze landed on Xia Chenxing. After a while, he finally shifted his gaze to the woman curled up in pain in the corner of the sofa.

The woman suddenly grabbed the man’s hand. “No,” she said brokenly. “Don’t. Don’t risk yourself for me.”

They’d fought side by side over the years. They’d survived countless near-death situations together. If it hadn’t been for the mission, she wouldn’t have ended up like this. She couldn’t see him risking his life for her.

However, the man did not hesitate at all and said firmly, “I won’t let anything happen to you.” After saying that, his gaze landed on Xia Chenxing and he said coldly, “You, come here.”

Xiao Qi strode over in shock and said, “Boss, this woman can’t be trusted!”

The man said nothing, but his expression darkened as he looked at Xiao Qi. Xiao Qi understood what the man meant and didn’t dare say another word. He lowered his head and retreated to the side.

Only then did Xia Chenxing dare to walk towards the woman. When she brushed past the man, the smell of disinfectant entered the man’s nose, and he subconsciously sniffed it.

Xia Chenxing saw the man’s reaction and pretended to relax. “It’s the smell of disinfectant, right? I’m not lying to you, am I? I’m really a doctor.”
