After spending a night experiencing a roller-coaster relationship—
When Jiang Moxi woke up, she found an arm still wrapped around her waist, causing her to turn back in astonishment.
The man was still asleep.
In the morning light, his features resembled the masterpieces of a top-tier sculptor, with a captivating beauty mark under the corner of his lightly closed right eye, making him incredibly charming.
However, it was precisely this handsome face, just inches away from her, that left Jiang Moxi completely bewildered!
"Fu, Fu Youhan?"
Fu Yiming's younger uncle?!
Had she really gotten involved with her fiancé's younger uncle?!
What on earth happened?
All she remembered was that last night, Fu Yiming had called off the engagement, leaving her upset, and she ended up drinking two glasses at a bar.
Then a few ruffians had malicious intentions towards her, and she had no choice but to hide in a room.
After that, her memory wasn't so clear.
She only vaguely recalled that a man suddenly appeared in the dimly lit room.
The man tightly pinned her limbs, his body temperature scorching, whispering in her ear.
"Help me!"
Who the fuck wants to help you?
But perhaps due to the effects of alcohol or maybe because she wanted to retaliate against Fu Yiming by having a fling with someone else, under the influence of alcohol, her thoughts became unclear...
Yet, she never imagined it wasn't just a dream!
Moreover, this man turned out to be Fu Yiming's younger uncle, Fu Youhan.
It was truly a clichéd and absurd situation!
But wait, wasn't this Fu Youhan the one known as the mastermind behind the Fu family, renowned for his peerless beauty but having been paralyzed at a young age, confined to a wheelchair? That was common knowledge throughout Yan City.
Then why did she have the sensation last night that this man possessed an extraordinary strength in his legs, tossing her around almost to the point of exhaustion?
Jiang Moxi rubbed her sore head due to the hangover and unintentionally glanced at Fu Youhan's perfect physique beside her.
Just as her gaze landed on his thighs, the door was knocked, and the man's long arm around her waist quickly tightened.
Was that a sign of awakening?
She immediately grabbed the blanket and covered her face.
Fortunately, she managed to cover herself in time. The man soon got up, smoothly dressing himself.
"Come in."
As soon as Assistant Chi Jing entered, he froze, blinking his eyes, lacking confidence.
"Third Master, this...?"
He never expected to see a woman on Fu Youhan's bed. For a moment, he couldn't find the right words.
The man before his eyes was the one who had brought the Fu family to its peak, an astonishingly outstanding man who was revered like a deity throughout Yan City.
However, since the car accident a few years ago, he no longer managed the Fu family's affairs and only frequented Buddhist temples, wearing black prayer beads on his hand, refraining from any involvement with women.
But today, there was a woman on his bed...
"Have Ye Chen come to me now."
Chi Jing snapped back to reality, seeing the man glaring at the lump on the bed.
He immediately understood that the reckless one-night stand between Fu Youhan and this woman was probably his good friend Ye Chen's handiwork.
"Yes." Chi Jing immediately went to carry out the order.
Although Fu Youhan was no longer the sole controller of Yan City's first prestigious family, he still possessed an iron-fisted approach when dealing with people.
Poor Ye Chen, it seemed like he wouldn't have a good end.
"Why have you come to find me so early in the morning?" Fu Youhan asked while readjusting the wristwatch, which the woman had haphazardly removed from the bedside table the previous night.
"The Jiang Family has been urging us to discuss the marriage with Young Master Fu as soon as possible. The Second Master said that he and the Second Madam are both on a business trip and want you to discuss with them first."
"Interesting," he couldn't help but sneer. "They see me sitting in this wheelchair, and everyone is scrambling to get a piece of the Fu family's wealth. Even the Jiang family is eager to jump on the bandwagon. It's truly sickening."
Jiang Moxi heard the conversation between Fu Youhan and Chi Jing clearly.
Especially Fu Youhan's evaluation of the Jiang family, which was accurate and sharp, and his tone revealed his deep disgust.
But she was unsure what his expression would be like if he knew that the woman he had spent the night with was also a member of the Jiang family, someone he found so detestable...
As they continued talking, they headed outside, presumably to deal with Ye Chen.
Jiang Moxi secretly pulled open a gap in the blanket covering her face.
Seeing Fu Youhan walking with his legs, her eyes were filled with shock.
So it wasn't her imagination last night; he could actually walk?
However, Jiang Moxi knew that these questions were not her concern.
She hastily put on the baggy overalls, casually touched up her makeup with some foundation and eyeliner to conceal her stunning beauty, and then took advantage of Fu Youhan's absence to leave.
After Fu Youhan finished his business and returned to the room.
He faced the lump on the bed and said, "Thank you for last night. Here's a five-million cheque for you. If you think it's not enough or need anything else, feel free to ask. But once you take the money, never appear again..."
Before he could finish his words, his eyes swept over.
Upon seeing the bed unusually quiet and eerie, Fu Youhan couldn't help but grow suspicious. Extending his long arm, he lifted the blanket.
There was no woman at all!
Under the bedding, there were only two plump white pillows and a stain of dried blood...
