In his hand is a hundred-yuan note.

After paying for it afterwards, what did she think of him?

The man's face was cold and he strode to the balcony. The window was indeed open.

The floors here are high, the third floor is equivalent to the fourth floor. How did she jump?

Is he that scary? Let her risk her own life to escape?

The wind blew in from the window, as cool as water, but it couldn't extinguish the evil fire in the man's heart. Not only did this woman humiliate him with a hundred yuan, but she also jumped out of the window and escaped afterwards... Don't let him catch her!

...

Su Xi sneezed while sitting in the taxi. The driver looked over in the rearview mirror and asked, "Little girl, are you okay?"

She's so good-looking and she's dripping wet, so she looks like she's in trouble.

Su Xi smiled warmly, "It's okay."

The driver smiled and said, "You are still a student. You must be more careful when you are alone outside."

"Well, thank you, master."

Su Xi responded, took out her cell phone, and typed quickly, "Destroy the surveillance records of my appearance at Tianyue Mansion around seven o'clock and nine o'clock immediately, and completely smash them!"

"OK!" The person opposite didn't ask anything and just followed the instructions.

The man's harsh words rang out again. At this point, Su Xi no longer thought about the useless question of whether she should see Ling Jiuze today. She just wanted to prevent Ling Jiuze from knowing that she had been here.

When she got off the bus at Yunhai Road, Su Xi paid double the fare because she wet the back seat of the taxi.

Back at the villa, the servant Wu Ma was shocked when she saw Su Xi's wet clothes, "Young Mistress, what's wrong with you?"

"If something happens, I'll go upstairs and take a shower first." Su Xi walked upstairs.

"I'll give the young lady some water." Mother Wu didn't dare to ask any more questions and hurriedly went upstairs to prepare.

A few minutes later, Su Xi soaked in the warm bathtub and her body gradually relaxed.

Her mind was a little confused. She forced herself not to think about what happened at night and buried her head in the water.

After taking a bath and changing into clean pajamas, while Wu's mother was drying her hair, Su Zhengrong's call happened to come in.

Su Xi's eyes turned cold, and she asked Mother Wu to go out first, while she went to the balcony to answer the phone.

When the call was connected, Su Zhengrong asked hurriedly, "Xixi, where are you? Have you seen Mr. Ling?"

There was no emotion in Su Xi's tone, "Is dad worried that Mr. Ling and I can't get along harmoniously, so he gave me some medicine to cheer me up?"

Su Zhengrong was stunned, "What do you mean, drugging? Who was drugging you? I didn't!"

"No?" Su Xi raised the corners of her lips, "Then dad clearly made an appointment with Ling Jiuze's assistant at nine o'clock, why did he tell me it was seven o'clock?"

There was silence on the other side of the phone. Su Xi's heart sank and she was ready to hang up.

"Xixi!" Another voice suddenly came from the phone, Su Zhengrong's voice sounded guilty, "It's my fault. I want you to see Mr. Ling as soon as possible. I think if you two stay alone for a while, he will discuss the marriage.

There won’t be so much resistance.”

He immediately asked, "What happened? What's wrong with you?"

Su Xi could hear the genuine concern in Su Zhengrong's tone and asked, "It's really not you?"

Su Zhengrong immediately said, "Of course not, no matter how difficult it is for me, I will never use such despicable means to plot against my daughter!"

Su Xi said nothing.

Su Zhengrong asked cautiously, "Xixi, are you okay?"

Su Xi said softly, "It's okay, I didn't see Ling Jiuze."

Su Zhengrong didn't dare to ask in detail what happened, and seemed to sigh, "No matter what, this is because daddy is sorry for you, and he will never let you see him again. If you don't want to live in a villa on the mountain, daddy now

I’ll pick you up and take you home.”

Su Xi's voice softened slightly, "I have lived here for more than two years. I don't care if I stay a few more months. Dad doesn't have to worry. I still like it here."

This villa was Ling Jiuze's private property. She moved here as soon as she got married and lived there for nearly three years.

Su Zhengrong felt relieved and said with a smile, "Okay, then we will stay for a few more months. Once every three years, I will personally take my daughter home. By the way..."

He paused and said, "This Saturday is your mother's birthday. You should go home. What she said last time you went home was not intentional. Don't take it to heart. She has already regretted it, but she just can't let it go.

I’d like to apologize to you.”

Su Xi responded, "There is a class this Saturday morning. I will go back by myself after class."

"That's fine, call dad if you need anything."

After hanging up the phone, Su Xi thought for a moment and dialed another number, "Yingying, prepare a set of the latest spring necklaces and earrings. I'll pick them up in the next two days."

There was a response from the other side, and Su Xi put down her phone. Thinking of today's events, pictures in the dark popped into her mind involuntarily.

The man's heavy breathing seemed to be right next to her ears... She leaned on the stone railing with her arms and buried her head. She couldn't tell whether she was annoyed or resentful.

At eleven o'clock at night, Ling Jiuze left Tianyue Mansion. His assistant followed him and whispered back, "Mr. Ling, we found it. It's Li Hai, the vice president of Tianqi. He originally wanted to drug the female companion he brought today.

Somehow the wine glass was transferred to Mr. Ling. Li Hai was so frightened that he fled Jiangcheng overnight and went to Haicheng."

Ling Jiuze's red phoenix eyes were filled with fierceness, "Now that you've run away, never come back!"

The assistant lowered his head and said, "Understood!"

It was already early in the morning when we returned to the old house of the Ling family. The eldest son and his wife of the Ling family went to London to hold an economic seminar. The parents of the Ling family also went there, leaving only their daughter and son at home. They were already asleep at this time.

Ling Jiuze went directly to the third floor. After taking a shower, he wrapped himself in a bathrobe and sat down on the wicker chair on the balcony. He touched a cigarette on the coffee table and lit it.

The sparks of cigarette butts flickered in the moonlight. Ling Jiuze's slightly damp black hair hung down on his forehead. Under the dim light, his handsome face had deep outlines and was handsome and dignified.

Inexplicably, he thought of the girl tonight again. When he was in the bathroom, he noticed her uneasiness and was afraid of hurting her too much, so he kissed her for a long time.

He didn't move further until she responded. She grabbed his arm and called his name anxiously.

At that time, his nerves were already in a state of confusion, so now that he thinks about it, he is still confused as to whether she called his name or not.

Ling Jiuze took out the one hundred yuan. The new version was soaked with water.

Nowadays, mobile payment covers almost the entire country. Who would carry cash with them?

Why did she appear in his room?

Who is she?

Ling Jiuze suddenly became curious.

Picking up the phone, Ling Jiuze made a call, "Check, find the woman who jumped from the third floor tonight!"

"Yes!" Assistant Mingzuo only takes orders and never talks nonsense.

The next day, after class in the morning, Su Xi received a call from her counselor, asking her to sort out the materials for applying for a scholarship and send them to the office.

Su Xi finished tidying up and received another WeChat message from the counselor before she went over, [Su Xi, I have something urgent to go to the conference room on the ninth floor. You can just bring it over.]

Su Xi replied to WeChat and walked towards the office building.

There was a black Bentley parked on the green road outside the office building. Just as Su Xi was about to walk over, she saw a tall and tall figure getting out of the car.

Su Xi's heart skipped a beat when she looked at the man's side face, and she turned around subconsciously.

The lights were not turned on last night. Maybe Ling Jiuze didn't recognize her, but she didn't know how to face it.

After the car drove away and the man turned into the office building area, Su Xi continued walking forward.

Unexpectedly, when she turned the corner, she saw a man standing there talking on the phone again. Su Xi also stopped and pretended to look down at the phone.

When she looked up, Ling Jiuze had already walked away. Su Xi took a deep breath and was a little confused, why was Ling Jiuze here?

After entering the office building, the man was getting into the elevator. Su Xi slowed down and waited for the elevator to close before walking over.

As soon as she put her hand on the elevator button, the elevator that had been closed opened again.

Su Xi raised her head and was caught off guard, meeting the man's cold and questioning eyes.
