"roll!"

Qiao Wanwan was furious; she wouldn't even see the King of Heaven himself.

Without saying a word, the bodyguards grabbed her arms on either side and dragged her outside.

"Let go! Where are you taking me!" Qiao Wanwan struggled desperately, but after a night of torment, she had no strength left to resist.

She was shoved into the car and thrown into a hard embrace.

A refreshing and pleasant scent of pure male hormones wafted over, and Qiao Wanwan subconsciously looked up to see the man's handsome face.

She was furious. "Why are you always haunting me?!"

Zhan Jingting's long, slender hand with distinct knuckles gripped her chin, his deep, calm eyes flashing with anger. "You've really grown bold. Not only do you dare to pretend to be drunk and deceive me, but you also dare to jump into the sea? Aren't you afraid of being eaten by sharks?"

“Where would sharks come from in this kind of water? Sir, I have to go now, and I'll never see you again.”

Qiao Wanwan turned around to get out of the car, but found that the door was locked and the car had already started moving.

"You think you can escape?" The man chuckled lightly, but his voice turned cold. "Do you know what the consequences will be if you sleep with me and don't take responsibility?"

Qiao Wanwan's eyes widened. "You still want to cling to me?"

"That's one way to understand it."

Qiao Wanwan: "......"

This man is so shameless!

"I even saved your life with acupuncture before, let's call it even."

"I will repay what I owe you, but you have to take responsibility for sleeping with me."

Qiao Wanwan: "......"

"Sir, I think you should calm down now. I have to go."

"Do you think you can leave without my permission?"

Qiao Wanwan was furious, "What exactly do you want to do!"

"Marry me."

"impossible!"

The man wasn't annoyed. "Then you'll come back to the island with me and live there until we turn the impossible into possible."

Qiao Wanwan scratched her head in frustration, "Mr. Zhan, right? Why are you fixated on me like this?"

"You are mine."

Qiao Wanwan: "You want to marry me, right? Okay, but I don't know you at all, so it's impossible for me to marry you now."

The man raised an eyebrow. "You mean, you need time to get to know me?"

"That's right, we need to get to know each other before deciding whether we can get married, but the premise is that you can't imprison me."

Zhan Jingting saw through her little scheme at a glance, his slender fingertips tapping the chair. "Miss Qiao, let me clarify, I did not imprison you, I was just trying to get to know you better."

Qiao Wanwan: "......" Pah!

"So, can you respect my wishes now?"

"Okay, but you still have to live with me."

"It's inconvenient to live on that island."

“I have another property, and we’re moving to the city center tomorrow.”

After Zhan Jingting finished speaking, he waited for a while but didn't receive a reply from the girl. When he turned around, he saw that she had already fallen asleep leaning against the back of her chair.

She seemed exhausted and slept very soundly, but her brows were tightly furrowed.

The man raised his hand and gently touched the center of her hair, his gaze growing even deeper.

......

The next day.

Qiao Wanwan slowly woke up and saw a familiar ceiling.

She was so tired last night that she actually fell asleep in the car.

Qiao Wanwan got up and saw a set of clothes on the sofa next to the bed, which was obviously prepared for her.

She needed to shower and change her clothes, so she picked them up and went into the bathroom.

Qiao Wanwan locked the bathroom door from the inside, tore off the scars on her face, revealing a face so exquisite it was almost perfect.

The scars that disfigured her had actually healed half a month ago. She originally wanted to surprise Gu Xulin at their engagement party, but she never expected it to turn out like this.

She took a relaxing bath in the tub, feeling all her fatigue disappear.

After showering and reapplying the scar, Qiao Wanwan picked up her clothes, put them on, and then went downstairs.

After dinner, Zhan Jingting took her away from the island and to a villa in the city.

Qiao Wanwan was confused. "What do you mean?"

“You promised me last night that you would live with me. You thought it was inconvenient on the island, so we moved here.”

Qiao Wanwan: "......"!!

"Impossible, why would I agree to live with you?"

"You personally agreed to get to know each other, are you trying to renege on your promise?"

Qiao Wanwan scratched her not-so-messy hair. She seemed to have really agreed last night because this was the only expedient solution!

"Mr. Zhan, I..."

"Zhan Jingting, that's my name," the man interrupted her.

"Oh, Zhan Jingting," Qiao Wanwan readily corrected herself.

Zhan Jingting: "..." He told her his name, but he didn't expect her to call him by his full name.

"Zhan Jingting, you want to marry me, but I don't want to. So, the agreement we've reached is to get to know each other, right?"

"yes."

"Well, this understanding should have a time limit, right? We can't waste each other's time getting to know each other for three or five years. So I think we should set a one-month time limit. After one month, if I still don't want to marry you, you can't force me anymore. Otherwise, if you push me too far, I really will fight to the death."

“One month…” The man tapped the armrest of the wheelchair with his fingertips. “Okay, I promise you, we’ll date for a month before we get married.”

Qiao Wanwan: "......" Of course, we'll never see each other again after a month. Who wants to marry him!

Zhan Jingting saw through her little thoughts and said calmly, "In order to get to know each other better, you will have to stay here for the next month."
