Teacher, spare me / Not suitable / Book Pavilion

  She knew they were intentionally tormenting her, trying to drive her to death with high fever, and if she couldn't hold on, it would be just what Guo Baochai and those people wanted.

  Those so-called interrogators only said two things to her: either she agreed to be Guo Ziyao's girlfriend, or they would send her to prison for intentional injury, and the Guo family could produce various disability certificates from the hospital. No more was needed; as long as she was locked up for a year, it would be enough to ruin her reputation.

  Even in the midst of a splitting headache, she knew she couldn't afford to lose because she wasn't alone; she had her frail and sickly mother to care for. She was the most important spiritual pillar for her mother's life, if she were to silently die in this distant city, what would happen to her mother?

  Under the double torture of mental and physical suffering, her will wavered a little. She thought that a rich young master like Guo Ziyao would probably just play with her and let her go when he got bored, so she decided to agree to their first condition: becoming Guo Ziyao's girlfriend...

  However, before she could nod in agreement, she fainted and when she came to again, she was told that she could leave. With a high fever making her feet feel light, as soon as she heard the news, she hastily turned around and rushed out, fearing they would change their minds.

  She stumbled and staggered as she ran, nearly falling to the wet ground several times. In her daze, she saw a tall figure rushing towards her through the rain mist. She tried to open her eyes to see who it was, but couldn't muster any strength. Her last bit of consciousness was that she fell into a thick and sturdy arm.

  Late at night, the rain was still falling, with large raindrops pattering against the windowpane. On the vast glass surface, a tall and handsome man's silhouette was reflected, along with his chiseled face. He seemed to have just bathed, wearing a black silk robe, standing there with one hand in his pocket and the other casually swaying the object in his hand. Standing by the window, lost in thought, his gaze forward had an almost imperceptible hint of melancholy.

  "Knock knock knock——"

  A soft knock at the door came from outside, he didn't turn around and only responded with a faint "come in".

  "Come in!"

  A woman in a white shirt and black clothes, with a serious expression, cautiously poked half of her head in, glanced at the woman still sleeping on the big bed, and reported in a very low voice.

  "Director Lu, tomorrow morning's meeting in the provincial city"

  They were originally going to take a plane to the provincial city this afternoon to attend a business meeting tomorrow morning, but he received a call from his bodyguard on the eve of boarding and cancelled his trip. He rushed back by car, knowing that the business meeting was not ordinary for Shen Yuandi Real Estate, so she came to ask for instructions at this time.

  The man still stood in front of the window, and after a moment's thought, he gave a low order.

  "Tell the driver to get ready, we'll drive through the night!"

  The woman opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something but hesitated for a long time and finally reluctantly agreed.

  It is...

  From here to the provincial capital, driving on highways all the way will take at least four or five hours. Now it's already so late, if they rush overnight, they won't have time to rest and will go straight to the venue for preparation work. It doesn't matter to them, he has been working overtime until very late for several consecutive nights...

  Lin Xanni closed the door and retreated, a hint of self-mockery and desolation flashing in her cold eyes. She actually wanted to say "President Lu, your body is important", but she also knew that even if she said it, it wouldn't get his attention. So she swallowed everything down, after all, she was used to being ignored by him, wasn't she?

  Having been his secretary for so many years, how could she not know the importance of the girl lying in bed to him? Six years ago when that girl was young and vigorous with thorns all over her body, six years later when she was miserable and defeated, there was only one person at the bottom of his eyes, regardless of the vicissitudes of life and the changes of the world.

  A loud wail: Shan Ni is a good person, although she has a secret crush on President Lu, but she's definitely not a bad woman.
