Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

At the end of the corridor on the top floor of Yunding, in a washroom in the corner, an ambiguous sound could be heard.

The chilling fragrance of cedar emanated from the man and entered Su Lu’s breath.

Su Lu’s eyes were lifeless as tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

She couldn’t understand why things had developed like this.

She was only here to attend a cocktail party.

Just half an hour ago…

…

“Hey, didn’t her husband have a scandal just a few days ago? And she still has the mood to come to the cocktail party?”

“In arranged marriages, there are no feelings involved. They say both parties can do as they please…”

“Even without feelings, one still has to be shameless, right? She’s already been cheated on him. If I were her, I wouldn’t have the face to go out.”

Su Lu knew that these people were talking about her.

Because a few days ago, the scandal between Gu Xin and Chen Yaxi came out.

Su Lu and Gu Xin had a five-year contractual marriage, and both families closely cooperated through this marital relationship.

The agreement between the two was to divorce after five years, having harmonious cooperation but no personal involvement.

Therefore, Su Lu already knew about this matter. The scandal from a few days ago was just a result of the approaching end of their five-year contract, so he was careless and was caught off.

Gu Xin felt guilty, but Su Lu didn’t pay much attention to it.

She was only slightly envious of Gu Xin, who could be with his true love as soon as the five years were up.

Unlike her, who had missed that chance five years ago when she let go of the man, she loved the most.

When Gu Xin saw her approach, he was worried, “Why did you come?”

“So many people are waiting to witness a spectacle. I’ve come to help you smooth things over,” Su Lu smiled, absentmindedly peeling a cupcake.

“Little Lu, I’m sorry,” Gu Xin expressed his remorse.

Su Lu smiled faintly, “It’s really fine. Besides, we were about to go through the formalities in a few days.”

Although she said that, Gu Xin still felt guilty. Although they both understood the nature of their marriage, Su Lu, as the bride, was the one at a disadvantage.

Gu Xin said, “Let me introduce you to Second Young Master Jiang from Jianghe Media. This cocktail party is hosted by Jiang Li, and he’s organizing it to welcome his friend who has just returned from abroad. His friend has significant influence overseas and is planning to enter the domestic market. It wouldn’t hurt to get acquainted.”

“Okay,” Su Lu took a glass of red wine from the bar.

Outside the expansive floor-to-ceiling windows at Yunding, the unstoppable night view of Feng City came into sight.

Jiang Li and his friend sat on the luxurious sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Gu Xin smiled and said, “Second Young Master Jiang.”

“Hey, President Gu.” Jiang Li was aware of Gu Xin’s recent scandal, and his gaze carried a hint of mockery as he glanced at Su Lu.

Gu Xin said, “This is my wife, Su Lu.”

“Young Master Jiang, nice to meet you.” Su Lu’s smile was flawless. “I’d like to propose a toast to Second Young Master Jiang and your friend…”

At that moment, Jiang Li’s friend, who had been facing away, turned around.

Su Lu’s voice came to a halt, and her smile instantly shattered.

Bo Jingshen.

Her body trembled, and her mind roared.

Bo Jingshen’s handsome face overlapped with the youthful and handsome face from five years ago.

His bloodshot eyes and biting words resurfaced in her mind.

“Su Lu, you betrayed me and married someone else. You played with me like a fool. Someday, I will make you pay the price.”

Jiang Li noticed Su Lu’s sudden freeze and chuckled, “Haha, isn’t my buddy handsome? It won’t be a loss for you to have a drink with him.”

Su Lu came back to her senses.

Bo Jingshen’s lips curled into a faint smirk. “A toast to me? Sure. But I don’t like insipid drinks like wine or champagne.”

He looked at Su Lu indifferently. “Whiskey or white wine, how about it?” One glass was not sincere, and two glasses were not enough. Why not three glasses?”

Gu Xin furrowed his brows. “Little Lu has an average alcohol tolerance. Let me drink on her behalf.”

Jiang Li also intended to intervene.

“I’ll drink,” Su Lu’s voice came out hoarsely.

Gu Xin said, “Little Lu!”

Su Lu swiftly picked up a glass of whiskey.

Bo Jingshen leisurely took a glass as well.

One glass.

Two glasses.

Three glasses.

Bo Jingshen was drunk the whiskey at ease.

But Su Lu’s face was pale.

Su Lu’s complexion turned pale.

“Little Lu, are you okay?” Gu Xin asked in a low voice.

Su Lu shook her head. “I’m fine.”

She looked at Jiang Li and said, “Young Master Jiang, I’ll take my leave now.”

After his buddy let Su Lu down three glasses of wine in a single encounter, Jiang Li felt a bit awkward. He nodded and replied, “Alright, take care. See you next time.”

Gu Xin sent her to the entrance of the hall.

“Are you sure you don’t need me to accompany you back?” Gu Xin asked.

“I’m really fine. I’ll just go to the washroom and then head back. Don’t worry,” Su Lu reassured him.

In the washroom at the end of the floor, Su Lu vomited until she was dizzy. After she vomited, she went to the sink in a daze and washed her face and mouth with water.

A dark figure swiftly entered the restroom.

Just as she stood upright, her mouth was covered, and she was forcibly pulled into a cubicle.

The cubicle was locked, and she was pressed against the wall.

His scorching breath, mixed with the fragrant aroma of alcohol and the refreshing scent of cedar emanating from his body, entered Su Lu’s breath.

Su Lu was taken aback, and the fear she originally felt expanded into boundless pain.

“Su Lu, it’s been a long time. You haven’t forgotten my words, have you?” Bo Jingshen’s scorching breath grazed her ear, while his words were cold and chilling. “You played me like a fool. One day, I will make you pay the price.”

He had come to revenge.

Su Lu had never forgotten what he had said.

“I heard you and him can do what you want. That’s perfect. Today, play with me,” he said with a chilling smile.

His large hand stripped away her last defense.

Su Lu was pressed against the wall. She didn’t understand how things had developed to this point.

The alcohol made Su Lu’s mind foggy, rendering her devoid of the strength to resist.

The pain she felt in her heart was more unbearable than any physical pain.

But she remained silent, biting her lip tightly, the taste in her mouth turning bittersweet.

Bo Jingshen used his fingers to pry open her clenched teeth, preventing her from further self-infliction. Then, Su Lu bit down on the back of his hand.

He furrowed his brows but didn’t retreat.

The pain on his hand was inconsequential compared to the immense pleasure he experienced at that moment.

However, warm droplets of liquid fell onto his hand.

Her tears felt like corrosive poison, causing an indelible sting in Bo Jingshen’s heart.

Bo Jingshen’s voice carried a chilling tone, laced with a sardonic smile. “Is it enjoyable?”

Su Lu only wanted to leave. She dragged her weak steps forward.

A smoke-gray suit jacket draped over her shoulders from behind, enveloping her in the cool fragrance of cedar, distinctly his.

Without turning back, Su Lu’s voice was hoarse. “Bo Jingshen, from this moment on, we’re even.”

I don’t owe you anything.
