Chapter 18 The Vigorous Man Turns Weak and Frail

My stomach started growling: I'm so hungry.

What should I do? Can't I find myself even after a whole night?

She sat quietly on the sofa, thinking and analyzing a lot. At first, the man did have obvious murderous intent towards her, but later it disappeared for some reason. Moreover, when he threw her onto the bed, he only tied her up and did nothing to her.

Judging from this, this man probably isn't that bad.

After much deliberation, she decided to wake him up, otherwise she would either be tortured to death or starve to death.

Once again, she jumped back to the bedside, this time standing at the head of the bed with her eyes burning like flames, staring intently at the man on the bed.

Perhaps the man had also had a good sleep, because he felt uneasy under her fiery gaze. His breathing became erratic for a few seconds, followed by a long, violent cough. The coughing sound seemed to be trying to cough up his entire lungs, and the wheezing in his trachea was drawn out, as if he was about to stop breathing at any moment.

Wasn't he quite capable last night? How come he looks like he's about to die all night?

Su Yuxi was afraid that he had some kind of problem, so when he coughed, she had already jumped two zhang away.

As his cough subsided, he realized there were others in the room besides him. His body stiffened noticeably for a few seconds, and his eyes turned in a certain direction, filled with murderous intent.

No one is allowed to be in his residence without his permission, and no one dares to disobey his orders. Now, it is clear that some people do not take his words seriously.

So...

Click... The desk lamp on the table was switched on, and the dark room was finally illuminated.

Having been in darkness for so long, the sudden light made them squint uncomfortably. Once their eyes adjusted, they stared at each other, wide-eyed.

Fu Huaijin frowned, a terrifying ferocity emanating from his brows. A woman suddenly appeared in the room, but he didn't make a sound. Instead, he looked her up and down. The woman was completely wrapped in a blanket, with only her head showing. She had no ability to resist, and her appearance was decent.

Who sent the woman to his room? They're asking for trouble.

"Who are you? Who brought you here?"

Yesterday was Grandpa's birthday. He only came back to attend the celebration. No one except his family knew about his itinerary. Not long after the banquet started, he felt unwell and came upstairs to rest. He doesn't remember what happened after that.

He has no memory of last night, so did he have an attack last night?

But it didn't seem quite right. Everything in the room was intact, and even the woman standing in front of him was lively and energetic, which didn't make sense.

What exactly happened last night?

Su Yuxi was angered by his questioning tone. Why was she here? It was all thanks to him. It had only been one night, and he was pretending to have amnesia: "What do you think? Do you think I would have come in by myself and tied myself up like this?"

A hint of doubt flickered between Fu Huaijin's brows. It was indeed impossible. So who had tied her up and brought her to his bed?

Su Yuxi glared at him fiercely: "What are you looking at? You tied me up all night, untie me now."

Damn it, she felt like her limbs were being bound and degenerated, and she was in excruciating pain.

Fu Huaijin lowered his brows and coughed weakly twice. He stretched out his pale, slender fingers and tugged at the ribbon. The knotting method was indeed his usual technique, but why would he tie up a woman?

Anyone who dares to trespass into his territory should be killed.

He gently tugged at the ribbon with his fingers, and the knot came undone. Su Yuxi immediately threw off the blanket, freeing her hands and feet from being bound all night.

What happened last night?

Su Yuxi paused, looking at him suspiciously. This man seemed different from the one from last night. Last night, the man exuded a strong aura of violence that sent chills down one's spine; today, this man was as pale as paper, and despite being so tall, he seemed frail and weak, as if a gust of wind could blow him over. His voice was also panting, truly like someone terminally ill.

He was completely different from the one from last night. If they hadn't been there all night, she would have suspected that this man had been switched with another man.

"You don't remember what happened last night?"

Fu Huaijin pursed his bloodless lips and remained silent, which was taken as an admission that he had forgotten what happened last night.

Su Yuxi kicked her feet and rubbed her wrists. The moment her blood flowed smoothly and her joints could move freely, her fighting instincts, which had been dormant all night, were awakened. The instant she looked up, she raised her hand and punched the man in the face.

Based on last night's events, the man's reaction should have been lightning swift, but unexpectedly, he didn't even raise his hand and took her punch head-on.

Su Yuxi was shocked. What happened? She had already mentally prepared herself to fight him again, but his punch knocked her down onto the bed.

Blood was still seeping from the corner of Fu Huaijin's mouth, and he lay on the bed like a rag doll, unable to get up for a long time.

Su Yuxi took two steps back, afraid that he was going to try to frame her: "I'm telling you, don't pretend. You weren't like this last night."

People who can enter this hotel are all rich and powerful. This man is obviously no ordinary person. Don't even think about trying to extort money from her. Besides, he hit her first and bit her. It's not unreasonable for her to return the favor with a punch.

Fu Huaijin raised his hand to touch the corner of his mouth, then pressed it down. He seemed oblivious to his own head, not even flinching, his eyes growing increasingly dark.

"You can leave now."

Su Yuxi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he didn't intend to extort her.

She checked herself over.

After a night of reflection, she had bruises on her hands, a bite mark on her neck, and most importantly... her dress was ruined. These injuries struck her heart like a heavy hammer.

A sharp, explosive sound echoed in Su Yuxi's mind. She trembled as she lifted her skirt, the butterfly wings on it drooping stiffly as if they had lost their life. Many of the dazzling, luxurious diamonds had fallen off, undoubtedly during the fight last night.

"It's all over, it's all over," she murmured, her voice filled with undisguised terror and despair. "This dress looks very expensive, and it's already ruined after we've only worn it for a short time."

What to do? What to do?

"Aren't you leaving yet?" Fu Shijin frowned. He didn't have time to argue with her now; he had to find out what happened last night as soon as possible.

Su Yuxi was furious when she heard the man still trying to kick her out. Remembering her injuries and ruined clothes, she was blinded by greed. Fear was no longer a consideration for her: "Go to hell! Look...you bit me, look...you hit me, look...you ruined this!"

"Pay up! You have to pay up!" she roared angrily, her voice deafening.
