Before Mu Chenyan fainted, the final scene in her mind depicted the man’s arrogant appearance as he hovered above her body.
She was only twenty-four years old but she had already experienced unbearable pain and unimaginably traumatizing incidents numerous times.
These bitter feelings equipped her with instinctive responses to withdraw.
In the darkness, Mu Chenyan seemed to see herself from fourteen years ago. This slim young lady tied her hair in two braids and naively smiled as she followed her father to the visit the Yuan Family. When she saw the incomparably noble yet quiet and gloomy young man under the shadow of the mottled pomegranate tree, the ignorant girl’s crisp voice called out to him, saying, “Brother Xuan…”
His cold gaze contemptuously glanced at her before a faint noise of acknowledgment rang out from his chest. However, that insufferably arrogant figure resembled the genial warmth of sunshine on a winter’s day that powerfully and forcefully ripped open a wound in her tender heart.
This young man’s upright figure became her future goal that she persistently sought after and followed for the next ten years without any changes…
However, she had never imagined that his silhouette would become the embodiment of a devilish phantom that tortured her. When he used the similar strength of the past to tear at her gentle heart, the intense pain felt both real and imaginary.
She was extremely terrified but could not escape her nightmare no matter what.
The physical pain made her want to die but nothing could be painful enough to off-set the temporary sharp blade in her heart.
She treaded deeper into her dreams because the terribly scathing reality made her unwilling to wake up.
She had never doubted her initial decisions during these fourteen years.
She had told herself all along that she would not regret the past but she would no longer believe in the future either…
She had loved him excessively but he gave her so much pain instead…

“Doctor Zhou, why hasn’t she woken up yet?”
Yuan Xuan’s voice was faintly discernible, as though it came from the past.
Anxiety and remorse now appeared in the voice of this man who had been calm all along.
When the man called “Doctor Zhou” saw the currently uneasy side of the godlike man who was also the first successor of Luo Hai’s Yuan Family, he momentarily hesitated before he decided to tell the truth.
“Mr Yuan, your wife suffered a shock and caught a chill. In addition… In addition to that, her body could not endure the overly intense love-making…”
In comparison to Yuan Xuan’s sonorous voice, this man’s extremely gentle voice apparently possessed soothing properties. Mu Chenyan instinctively moved her fingers in hopes that the person called “Doctor Zhou” could save her.
Overly intense love-making?
Yuan Xuan’s expression darkened while he unconsciously pinched his temples because of his headache.
Doctor Zhou had embarrassed him! However, he was shocked when he saw the woman on the bed right after he had arrived.
He had never imagined that a callous man who appeared to show abstinence to the outside world would display such a ferocious side in this matter.
“Then… Are there any other good ideas? She’s already been unconscious for an entire day!”
Yuan Xuan’s voice was slightly hoarse. When the remorseful man glanced at the woman on the bed and saw that she resembled a crushed butterfly with torn wings, the entire place seemed like an area of devastation in his sight. Moreover, her beautiful wrists and pale neck that were filled with startling marks constantly accused him of his extremely violent actions last night.
Doctor Zhou pushed his glasses before he spoke in an awkward tone and said, “Mr Yuan, there are times when women are really frail… You… Perhaps if you’re somewhat gentler to her and make it up to her emotionally, that might be more effective than calling a doctor over.”
The grave expression on Yuan Xuan’s face lessened Doctor Zhou’s confidence as he spoke. He forced an embarrassed smile before he continued, “Your wife will definitely awaken before dinnertime because she’s just exhausted now… Mr Yuan, I’ll be off then?”
This reckless doctor was attempting to sneak away after he had finished lecturing Yuan Xuan. Yuan Xuan’s lowered his head before saying, “Doctor Zhou, you were recommended by Third Uncle. This matter ends here today so I hope that I won’t hear any rumors spreading around outside.”
Doctor Zhou was so frightened that he inhaled a mouthful of cold air before he continuously nodded and said, “I won’t say anything!”

Inside Blue Spirit Shadowlight Bar’s luxurious private room
In a dark corner, two tipsy men momentarily met each other’s eyes through the smoke that rose between their fingertips.
Wu Ze flatly said, “You should give me a reason for kidnapping one of my staff, right?”
Yuan Xuan’s posture was elegant when he gently leaned against the sofa. He deeply inhaled a mouthful of smoke and exhaled a long misty breath before he narrowed his eyes and looked at Wu Ze.
Previously, this man had nearly lost his own life to save him. Thus, he had sworn to willingly do anything to repay him, including cutting off his own flesh to compensate him.
However, Mu Chenyan was certainly excluded as a form of compensation!
