Qian Xun caught sight of Li Anyuan as well, tossed onto the ground and looking as despaired as she was.
A tall, black, and muscular man with jagged, dirty teeth was roaring out in laughter. He then grabbed at Qian Xun’s arm before cackling out lewdly. “This chick is not bad! She’s mine!”
The captured Qian Xun could only watch this man in horror as her heart was almost stuck in her throat.
At the side, Young Master Zhi looked with a grim face as he spoke with a lazy voice, “It’s rare that I finally fancy a woman. Are you going to steal her from me, Second Young Master?”
The moment Second heard those words, his face turned black. That initially black face seemed as though it was charred wood right now.
He turned to look at the main seat where a man with a scar on his face sat—this was the chief of this village. The scarred man glared at Second, ordering him to let go before turning around to smile at Young Master Zhi.
Second grit his teeth and looked at her longingly for one last time before bursting out in laughter at Young Master Zhi. “Ah, so it’s someone you want huh, Seven? Since it’s someone you brought back, your elder brother here won’t snatch it from you. Here, here…!”
With that, he pushed her hard as she was flung into Young Master Zhi’s embrace.
She did not know why at that time, but Qian Xun just felt that being in the embrace of this Young Master Zhi was better than being with that Second Young Master.
And time would prove her guts right.
A long time later, she finally found out. Young Master Zhi, Zhang Ahzhi—his real name was Lu Yanzhi.
At that time, he was an undercover spy executing a AAA confidential mission for the nation.
In reality, she should thank him. If not for him, she would have been played around by those men before being sold to some unknown place, where she would experience the most tragic experiences in this world.
If that had been the case, she should be dead by now.
At that thought, Qian Xun laughed out bitterly while tears welled up in her eyes. But this time around, she held them back in.
She then lay down on the sofa, somewhat tired.
Everything in the past had passed. Why was she thinking about it?
There was no way both of them would ever get together again.
Qian Xun laughed at herself.
Just like that, she fell asleep on the sofa. Awakening in the night from the cold, she headed to the bed to continue her sleep.
The next day, she woke up with a heavy head and her assistant brought her medicine, even cooking ginger cola for her. Qian Xun then continued to drowse into slumber before waking up at night due to a call from Shi Guang.
She was waiting right outside Qian Xun’s house with two bags of groceries. After entering, she said, “The previous time around, I wanted to prepare a meal for you, but we ended up having hotpot. Today, I’m here to pay for my mistakes.”
Qian Xun leaned against the kitchen door and looked at Shi Guang prepare. “You’re that nice of a person?”
“Of course!” Shi Guang took out some groceries and turned around to look at Qian Xun. “Why do you look so tired? Totally unlike someone who is ready to get engaged.”
“The reason why you’re here today is probably not to make me a meal again, is it?” Qian Xun could see through her.
Sensing the scrutinizing gaze from Qian Xun, Shi Guang felt somewhat guilty and turned around giggling while standing straight. “Of course, I’m here to prepare a meal for you! But, it’s also because I want to chat with you.”
Qian Xun looked at her coldly. “What do you want to chat about?”
Shi Guang did not want to beat around the bush and got to the point. “You’re getting engaged the day after. Are you really prepared for it?”
