It was a rainy night.

An ear-piercing alarm sound rang out.

"Young Master, there's a girl in front who fainted."

"Let's go." The man in the back seat uttered an emotionless word. He did not care about the life and death of others.

His well-defined features were hidden in the darkness, and his eyes were cold and lifeless.

She glanced out of the window casually. In the rain, a girl in a white dress was lying on the ground, and a few men were running in her direction.

"Stop the car," Xiao Lengting said.

The door opened, and Xiao Lengting bent down to pick up the girl. When he saw the girl's face, his slender fingers paused.

The warmth in the car made the girl unconsciously cling to the man's arms. Her little face was pale, her delicate eyebrows were tightly knitted, and her hair, which was yellowish, stuck to her cheeks.

The girl woke up from her dream. "No!"

She suddenly opened her eyes and saw darkness. Her body swayed from time to time. She should be in the car.

"Don't want anything?" Hearing the man's deep and charming voice, Xia Chu's body trembled.

She was shocked to find that she was curled up in a man's arms, and her fingers were still tugging at the man's collar.

"Hug, I'm sorry. Did you save me?" She had been chased by someone before she fell into a coma. She was currently in a car. It was obvious that this person had saved her.

"Yes," Xiao Lengting replied coldly.

Xia Shou saw that she was still in the man's arms, and her face suddenly turned red. "Sir, can you let me go?"

The man ignored her and did not let go of his hand on her waist.

In the darkness, she couldn't see the man's appearance clearly. She only felt that the man was terribly cold. The timid Xia Chu lay in his arms timidly and didn't dare to move.

"Well... Mr. Chu, where are we going now?"

"My home."

"Sir, thank you very much for saving me. Can you put me at the next intersection?"

"Where are you going?"

"I..." Xia Chu was speechless for a moment. She was almost kidnapped by her sister when she was tricked out of the house.

Her father had never liked her. She had no evidence and no one would believe her. Would she still dare to go back to that home?

As for Sheng Zhengxiu, he had gone abroad and had not come back yet. She had nowhere to go.

The car stopped and Xiao Lengting got out of the car with her in his arms. The driver immediately held up an umbrella for them.

"Tonight, you can stay here." His words decided whether she would stay or not.

It was a magnificent villa, which was more luxurious than the Xia family's.

"If you need anything, you can tell the housekeeper." Xiao Lengting arranged for her to stay in a room and left coldly.

"Thank you, sir."

One day, Xia Chu felt like she was on a roller coaster. She recalled that when she was caught by those men, she thought that her life was over.

Fortunately, she knocked out a person and escaped. She also met a good person.

Xia Chu dragged her wet body to the bathroom.

In the study.

Xiao Lengting held his head with one hand, and the cigarette in his other hand was surrounded by white mist.

The assistant next to him stood straight. "Young Master, although Xia Ruirui's people didn't touch her, Miss Xia Chu was still photographed a few indecent photos, which were enough to make the headlines. Xia Ruirui has already contacted the magazine editor.

"Once the report is made, Miss Xia Chu's reputation will be ruined, and I'm afraid that she won't be able to get the shares."

"Cut off the photos and suppress this matter. I don't need to teach you how to do the rest, do I?" Xiao Lengting spat out a smoke ring from his mouth.

"Yes, young master. I got it."

The butler appeared at the door of the study. "Young Master, the young lady has been in the bathroom for a long time and hasn't come out yet. Is something wrong?"

The bathroom door was locked. Xiao Lengting knocked on the door and no one answered.

"Young Master, I'll get the spare keys." The butler was about to turn around.

"No need."

The next second, the man kicked the door open. Everyone was stunned. What a violent young master!

Xiao Lengting went into the bathroom and glanced coldly at the people who were going to follow him and see what was going on. "Get out."

"Ah... yes." Only then did the assistant realize that they were in the bathroom, so they were taking a shower.

Xiao Lengting saw the girl sleeping in the bathtub at a glance. Her skin was as white as snow, and her long hair was scattered down like a sleeping beauty in a fairy tale.

He pulled the big bath towel aside and reached out to pick up the girl.

She touched her forehead with her fingers. If she did not have a fever, she must have been frightened into a coma.

This night, Xiachu slept soundly. It wasn't until dawn that she slowly opened her eyes.

"Ah!" A scream rang out in the quiet morning.

"You're awake?" Xiao Lengting looked indifferently at the frightened hare in his arms.

"You, you, you, I, I, how can we be together?" Xia Chu was too scared to speak incoherently.

"You hugged me and refused to let go," Xiao Lengting explained calmly.

Xia Chu saw the saliva marks on his chest and his wrinkled collar.

"I'm sorry to disturb you. I don't look well after falling asleep."

"No, she's very cute."

The man left a word and got up. Xia Chu blushed slightly. She got up in a hurry. "Thank you for taking me in last night. I..."

"Don't leave in a hurry. Look at this."

Xiao Lengting threw a stack of photos onto the bed. Xia Chu saw that her clothes were in disarray and half of her shoulders were exposed. There were also a few men around her.

Her face changed dramatically. "How could you have these photos?"

"Your good sister contacted the media and was about to report, but I stopped her."

Only then did Xia Chu let out a sigh of relief. "You saved me again. Thank you."

"Little hare, do you think that I will save you regardless of the reward? Do you know how much manpower and financial resources it takes to suppress the news?"

The man's tall figure enveloped her. She was more like a pitiful little girl who had been bullied.

"How... how much does it cost?"

"Do you think I'm short of money?"

"Then what do you want?"

"I want you."

Xia Chu's eyes widened. "No, I already have a boyfriend!"

"Where is he when you need him? This kind of trash should have been replaced a long time ago."

Xiao Lengting pinched her chin and said, "I'll give you three days to think about it. If you don't agree, I'll send the photo on behalf of Xia Ruirui."

As soon as these words came out, Xia Chu felt as if she had been struck by lightning. It turned out that the person who saved her was not an angel, but a demon.

Her eyes were filled with tears. "Why?"

Xiao Lengting's rough fingers stroked her moist lips, and his devil-like voice rang in her ear, "This is just interest. I'll wait for you here three days later."

Three days later, it was Xia Chu's 18th birthday. Sheng Zhengxiu would return to the country, but he himself had provoked a demon.

"Miss, Young Master said that you can ask for anything you need, and he can provide it for you."

"No need!"

Xia Chu didn't dare to ask for any help from the demons!

"Miss, don't forget the appointed time. The young master said that he would come to collect the reward in three days."

Three days were deeply engraved in her mind like a curse.

The Xia family.

Liu Qing and Xia Ruirui's faces were full of pride. "Although she ran away last night, the photos have been taken. They will be exposed on her birthday."

"Good job. As long as the photos are released, her shares will be canceled. I'll go to your father and give Xia Chu's shares to you and your brother. She will have no real name."

"After getting rid of Xia Chu, I will be the legitimate daughter of the Xia family."

Xia Chu didn't know if Xia Ruirui and the others had arranged a backup plan. She didn't dare to go home for the time being, so she had to go to her grandfather's place.

Xia Chu didn't want to disturb his rest last night because her grandfather lived in the Xia family's castle at night.

"Little Chu'er, how long has it been since you last came to visit Grandpa?"

Ever since her mother's death and her father's bringing home the mistress's family, Xia Chu had been leading a miserable life.

Seeing her grandfather, she couldn't help crying. "Grandpa."

"Good granddaughter, have you been wronged? Tell me everything."

Xia Chu wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. Liu Qing had once threatened her that if she dared to say a word, someone would destroy her mother's tomb.

"No, I just haven't seen you for a long time."

"My dear granddaughter, why don't I take care of your Coming of Age ceremony? That woman won't give you any face."

"I'll listen to you." Xia Chu could only find a trace of comfort on her grandfather's body.

In the evening, she received a call from Sheng Zhengxiu. "When are you coming back?"

"Chu'er, I'll be back the day after tomorrow. I'm here to attend your Coming of Age ceremony."

"That... cultivation..." Xia Chu thought of the devil's words. If she ignored his existence, there would be a scandal about her in a few days. What would Sheng Zhengxiu think of her?

"What's wrong, Chu'er? Did you miss me? I'll be back soon. I'll give you a big surprise!" Sheng Zhengxiu's voice was very pleasant.

Xia Chu had actually guessed what his surprise was. He must be proposing to her.

If it had been in the past, she would have been very happy, but now...

Her body was suddenly pulled into someone's embrace. Xia Chu's eyes widened as she stared at the man behind her.

How could he be here!

"Ah..." Xia Chu couldn't hold back her scream for a moment.

"Chu'er, what's wrong?" Sheng Zhengxiu asked anxiously.

"No, nothing. I was bitten by a wyrm." Xia Chu blushed.

"There are many mosquitoes in this season."

"Well... I'm a little sleepy. Good night." She hung up the phone in a hurry, for fear that Sheng Zhengxiu would hear something.

"Little hare, you're lying." Xiao Lengting pressed her against the tree, and the two of them were very close.

He hugged her for a good night last night. Somehow, he found her again.

Xia Chu's face was as red as an apple. She looked at the man in front of her angrily.

"It hasn't been three days. Why are you here?"

"Get some interest." Xiao Lengting found that he liked the pure aura of Xia Chu very much.

"How can you be so shameless? I'm going to sue you for trespassing."

Xiao Lengting sneered and moved closer to her. "Okay, tell me."

"Bastard, what are you doing?"

"Don't worry, I won't touch you. I'm just tasting the snacks."

He gently caressed her skin and soon left a mark that belonged to him.

"Chu'er, are you in the yard?" She heard her grandfather's voice.

The old tutor liked peace and quiet, and he didn't have many servants at home. The entire castle seemed a little empty and quiet.

Xia Chu was so frightened that she wanted to push the man away.

"Let go! My grandfather is coming!"

"Oh, so what if he's here?" Xiao Lengting held his long arm and fell into the flowers.

After all, Old Master Xia liked to serve flowers and plants when he was free. There were many flowers in the courtyard, and it was these flowers that blocked the two of them.

"Chu'er?" The old tutor's footsteps were getting closer and closer.

This nasty man didn't intend to stop. Xia Chu was anxious, shy, and nervous.

The sound of footsteps was very close to them, and Xia Chu was so scared that she closed her eyes. How could she explain it to her grandfather?
