Su Li unfolded a photograph, and a pearl earring appeared before her eyes.

Actually, twelve years ago, her grandmother gave her a pair of earrings, but one of them was lost in that accident.

After being kidnapped, she faced endless fear in the dark little house. Even the slightest bit of light was her only chance to survive.

It was pitch black all around her, and she didn't know how long she had been there.

One day, the tightly closed door was suddenly opened, and someone stumbled in by mistake.

The blurry figure looked like a man.

She was terrified, holding her breath and daring not to make a sound, fearing that the other person would pounce on her and tear her apart alive.

The other party seemed to realize something was wrong and tried to open the door to leave, but someone outside forced their way in.

He got into a fight with those people.

Su Li hid in the corner, trembling with fear.

They didn't know how long they fought, but then they heard someone fall to the ground.

Suddenly a large hand grabbed her shoulder, completely breaking down her defenses against fear.

She jerked her hand away and tried to get up and run away, but the man pinned her down.

The man was very tall and imposing, and his face was completely obscured in the darkness.

But she realized the danger and fought back fiercely, punching and kicking him.

During the struggle, one of her earrings fell off.

She found a rock in the dark and smashed it on the other person's head, then took the opportunity to escape.

After that, she never dared to go back to that place, and the earring was lost.

Even now, thinking about it still gives me lingering fear.

"Master Quan".

Hearing the maid's voice outside the door, Su Li snapped back to reality and quickly put the photo away.

Quan Ye walked in lazily, one hand holding his suit jacket and the other loosening his tie.

After the maid took his coat and hung it up, she quietly left.

Su Li turned to look at him, "Mr. Quan, you're back."

He stared at her with one hand in his pocket, his eyes full of scrutiny.

"What's wrong? You weren't happy having dinner with Shen Linfeng today?"

"You've seen it all, so whether you're happy or not doesn't really matter."

"Come help me take off my clothes."

He opened his arms, waiting for her service.

Su Li walked over and helped him loosen his tie and take off his shirt.

The man's tall and muscular physique was exposed to the air, his strong abdominal and pectoral muscles gleaming with an alluring luster, making one want to reach out and touch them.

Although Su Li had seen it many times, her heart still couldn't help but race every time she saw it.

He turned to face her and pulled her into his arms.

"What did Shen Linfeng say to you today that made you so angry?"

"It's nothing, I just find him annoying."

"It seems my nephew cares a lot about you. Don't you have any intention of rekindling your old flame?"

Su Li noticed that his gaze was becoming increasingly sharp, like a thorn firmly embedded in her.

"Mr. Quan, saying these things will upset you, so let's not say them."

Quan Ye wrapped one arm around her slender waist and lifted her forward.

Su Li was forced to close the distance between them, almost squashing his front.

"Having Xiao Yu in Yucheng isn't enough; back in Haicheng, I also have a protector. How come I never knew my secretary was so alluring and captivating, attracting the attention of so many men?"

"Doesn't Mr. Quan also have countless admirers outside? Miss Song is devoted to you, so why don't you spend more time with her tonight?"

The two locked eyes, their gazes locked in a tense standoff.

Quan Ye looked at the woman's stubborn little face, her sweet words making him want to tear her to pieces.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

He picked her up and placed her on the table beside him, then began to settle old scores, "You ran away from me and destroyed a lot of the villa's surveillance cameras. Tell me, how should I punish you?"
