At night, a Porsche Cayenne speeds through the streets.

Inside the car, the driver maneuvered the vehicle through the night, attracting frequent glances from passersby.

After dropping off Young Master Wei, they arrived at the door of the Liu family's daughter's house.

It's still the same old "Princess, please get off the bus" routine.

This time, a subtle, ambiguous atmosphere filled the car.

“Lin Yuan, I’m not entirely confident that I can complete the design plans you’ve requested on my own. That’s why I suggested having an experienced senior colleague come and help tomorrow…”

As they whispered to each other, Lin Yuan leaned forward to unbuckle Liu Xinran's seatbelt in the passenger seat.

Because they were so close, they could even feel each other's warm breath and hear each other's voices brushing against their faces.

After Liu Xinran finished speaking hastily, she did not wait for Lin Yuan to respond.

Those fair little hands reached out and grasped Lin Yuan's hand, which was resting on the safety buckle.

A warm current spread from the touching fingertips throughout the body.

Large hands are broad and strong, while small hands are delicate yet full of trust.

The sudden intimacy caused the two to look up at the same time and their eyes met.

A brief yet prolonged gaze met, and an ambiguous feeling quietly flowed in the air.

The soft whisper continued: "I don't want you to be disappointed in me."

Lin Yuan pulled his hand back from the seatbelt buckle and instead placed it on Liu Xinran's head.

He smiled, his eyes full of doting affection.

Then, a gentle breeze caressed the weeping willows, and a large hand slowly slid down Liu Xinran's smooth and lustrous hair.

"What on earth are you thinking about, my little princess?"

Lin Yuan's deep voice easily pierced Liu Xinran's heart.

Upon hearing this, Liu Xinran's cheeks immediately flushed red.

After parting ways with Lin Yuan, Liu Xinran returned home with light steps.

Throughout the journey, the heartwarming words she had exchanged with Lin Yuan in the car kept replaying in her mind.

Thinking about all this made her heart pound like a deer.

She was so excited that her little feet couldn't help but shake.

Finally, she collapsed onto the bed.

She covered her burning face with a soft pillow, muttering to herself, "Ah! What was I just doing!"

His legs were still swinging back and forth.

A phone call rang quietly, interrupting Liu Xinran's monologue.

I got out of bed.

The phone screen displayed Zhao Lili's number.

"Hey, Lily. Are you... alright?"

I answered the phone with my best friend Zhao Lili, and all I heard was crying on the other end.

"Xinran, sob sob..."

After listening quietly to the crying on the other end of the phone for a while, Liu Xinran finally asked.

"What's wrong?" Liu Xinran asked, puzzled.

"It's all Lin Yuan's doing! He actually set a trap for my brother."

An angry voice came from the other end of the phone.

What do you mean?

Liu Xinran's heart tightened, and she pressed for an answer.

"Zhao Xiaojun, my own brother, he's in jail now!"

Zhao Lili almost cried out those words on the other end of the phone.

"What! You... why are you doing this?"

A series of events followed one after another, all concerning Lin Yuan...

She was so nervous she almost dropped her phone.

"A few days ago, my younger brother went to drink with Lin Yuan. Everything was going well, but then Lin Yuan insisted on suggesting we get a room to make tea. And then... sob... sob..."

At this point, the person on the other end of the phone became even more agitated with sobs.

Upon hearing this, Liu Xinran immediately sensed that something was amiss.

Zhao Xiaojun?

Isn't he just Zhao Lili's good-for-nothing brother who idles around all day and studies foreign languages ​​like he's studying medicine?

Why does Lin Yuan always associate with people like this?

Words cannot express the sorrow.

...

The voice on the other end of the phone continued, "I'll ruin Lin Yuan's reputation no matter what! Xinran, you have to help me, please!"

"Lili, don't get agitated. Let's sort things out first, and then think of a solution, okay?"

Liu Xinran tried to calm the person on the other end of the phone.

However, Zhao Lili on the other end of the phone wouldn't listen to any advice and continued, "As long as you can help me get this done, I'm willing to give you a million as a reward! Xinran, for the sake of our years of friendship, please agree!"

"Lili, money is not the issue, but we still need to handle this matter rationally."

However, Zhao Lili seemed to have completely lost her mind.

She went on and on about her detailed plan to ruin Lin Yuan's reputation.

"I'm going to make Lin Yuan continue to be my lapdog. If he dares to disobey, I'll make sure he's utterly disgraced! Utterly disgraced!"

Hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, Liu Xinran felt a surge of anger and disgust.

She simply couldn't bear to listen to such vicious words.

Needless to say, no matter how she tried to persuade her, Lili seemed determined and remained unmoved.

In the end, she resolutely pressed the hang-up button.

Liu Xinran fell into deep thought.

Looking back on the recent events in the Zhao family, first Zhao Lili suffered a miscarriage, and then Zhao Xiaojun was imprisoned.

A series of unexpected events has raised suspicions: who exactly did the Zhao siblings offend?

Is it really a cycle of cause and effect, where retribution is inevitable?

Thinking about this, I felt that the matter was becoming increasingly perplexing.

Furthermore, what is a mere one or two million to a wealthy young lady like Liu Xinran?

Zhao Lili said these were all desperate measures taken in a panic.

It is a tremendous insult to her personality!

The more I think about it, the more upset I become.

Liu Xinran stood up and decided to take a hot shower first.

I walked into the bathroom and casually placed my phone on the shelf next to me.

When she came out of the shower, she glanced at her phone screen.

A long list of missed calls, all from Zhao Lili.

Looking at these constantly flashing numbers, Liu Xinran felt a wave of bad luck.

Without hesitation, I deleted and blocked them.

From now on, she never wanted to have anything to do with this former best friend again.
