The hell he can't keep it up, isn't it just a way of declaring to everyone that she's his, like an animal, making her bear his mark?

She understands his little thoughts perfectly. It's just a small thing, so let him be. He's a big dog who's always insecure, but he's also quite cute.

She took the initiative to wrap her arms around Lin Changli, deepening the kiss, her gaze softening.

Yu Wei held Qi Yunshen's arm, a smile involuntarily spreading across her face. After suffering so much, Kongsang would surely be happy.

A dejected voice came from the side: "Do you think... I, the backup option, can ever become the main one?"

Yu Wei glanced at Si Yu, her lips twitching: "You actually took it seriously? You know that Kong Sang may seem unrestrained, but the day she chose Lin Changli, you had no chance."

Si Yu maintained his usual roguish and casual demeanor, but a hint of sadness flickered in his eyes as he watched the two kissing: "I don't want to know."

Yu Wei's smile faded, and she sighed. She knew Si Yu was truly in love, but some things, once done, are too late...

In front of the locker room.

"Sis, congratulations! Let's have a drink."

Looking at the wine glass handed to her, Xiao Yue scoffed, "Did you drug it?"

Xiao Cha feigned sadness and asked, "Why do you miss me so much, sister?"

Xiao Yue sneered: "Xiao Cha, I know you hate me for using you, but you've been useless since you were little. If it weren't for my advice, you would have been schemed against and left with nothing."

"Instead of being foolish enough to be schemed against, you might as well be my weapon. If I'm doing well, do you think I'd abandon you? It's a pity you still chose to oppose me..."

Xiao Cha first chuckled softly, then burst into maniacal laughter: "Sister, oh sister, we are indeed sisters, equally selfish and vicious, but... this time you lost."

Her wrist was gripped tightly, and Xiao Yue frowned: "You're actually stupid enough to force yourself on me. If I had just shouted, the outside..."

Xiao Yue was shocked by the purplish-red eyes. Xiao Cha said with a dazed look in her eyes, "I have to finish quickly so I can see him. He will be unhappy if I delay. I just need to live for him."

Xiao Yue wanted to scream, but couldn't make a sound at all, as if she was being stared at by some terrifying monster, so nervous that she lost her ability to speak.

She could only watch helplessly as Xiao Cha poured her a glass of wine, took out her phone, sent a text message, and then held it up to her face.

Xiao Yue's pupils contracted; it was a distress message to Zhou Jin. The rising heat in her body told her what was about to happen...

Kong Sang's acquaintances were all sitting at one table, and they noticed that Kong Sang seemed to be in exceptionally good spirits.

As the general manager of Sanghe Pharmaceuticals, a branch of the William family, Bai Luo was naturally qualified to attend the banquet, and she even brought her male companion, Xu Lin…

Seeing Kong Sang's expression, he teased, "What good deed did the young lady do? Tell us so we can all have a laugh."

Xu Lin quickly said, "Xiao Luo, be more polite when you speak to Miss Bai." He thought Bai Luo was young and inexperienced and didn't know the rules, so he wanted to give her some pointers.

Bai Luo was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, tears streaming down her face.

She wiped her hands clean and said, "Don't worry, Brother Xu Lin, Miss won't be angry. After all, we... slept together, so we still have some feelings for each other."

Xu Lin was stunned. Had he slept?

Kong Sang clicked his tongue. Xu Lin, that stupid kid, was so easily fooled by being called "brother" that he had no idea what was going on. He still hadn't figured out Bai Luo's true colors.

Besides Yu Wei and the others, Lan Ye and Shen Yu were also at the table, all looking at Xu Lin with amusement. He was definitely smart, but he seemed to be a bit slow in some ways...

Xiao Cha walked over with an empty wine glass, ignored everyone's gaze, and sat down in Shen Yu's lap. The affection in her eyes was obvious even to a blind person.

Kong Sang was surprised. If she didn't like Nie Jingxing, what was she doing?

Seemingly sensing Kong Sang's gaze, Shen Yu subconsciously felt unbearably dirty. He lowered his head and said something to Xiao Cha, who obediently got up and left.

"Young Miss, I..."

Kong Sang interrupted: "There's no need to explain anything. I'm giving you the company not to restrict you in any way. Just do your job well, and you don't need to tell me anything else."

She didn't hold any controlling stake in that entertainment company, but Shen Yu renamed it Sangyu Entertainment. She knew it was a sign of loyalty; as long as people worked well for her, she wouldn't treat them unfairly.

Shen Yu lowered his eyes and hummed in agreement. He should be content...

Recently, the Lan family patriarch was discharged from the hospital, and Lan Ye had nothing to do, so he missed the days of adventure at Tianhuang Village.

He joked, "Nie Kongsang, what fun things have happened lately? Bring your uncle along. The Shen family controls the military and politics, and I, a major general, am going to be bored to death."

Kong Sang's eyes flickered slightly: "I see... There really is. Since you don't have any missions, then come with me to the black market in R country before the New Year. I want to buy some things."

She also needs to put the whereabouts of the crystal that Ai Tong mentioned on her agenda.

Lin Changli wrapped his arms around Kong Sang's waist and frowned: "You're going to R country?"

"Yes, there are some things I want to buy. It's not about getting involved with the Lysen family, so don't worry."

Lin Changli was about to ask more questions when a commotion and angry shouts erupted from the crowd.

Kong Sang knew that things had gone well, and Shen Yu had indeed not disappointed her.

With her peach blossom eyes curving upwards, she stood up. Of course, this scene couldn't be complete without the onlookers.

"You bitch, you cheated on me at our engagement party, how the hell are you despicable?" Shen Xing, pale-faced and barely able to stand, cursed angrily with a ferocious expression.

At an engagement party, he was kicked in the groin in public, and now his fiancée is having an affair with someone else. He has completely lost face.

Xiao Yue's dress was torn and barely covered her body, making it impossible to tell whether she had actually done anything. She was slapped by her parents, causing blood to trickle from the corner of her mouth, and she leaned to the side without making a sound.

Seeing that the two were about to fight, Zhou Jin, whose clothes were wrinkled, frowned and stopped them directly: "I told you, Xiaoyue has been drugged, don't you understand?"

Mr. Xiao's face flushed with anger. Whether or not the medicine worked was irrelevant; what angered him was whether his outstanding daughter would be ruined, and whether the failed marriage would become a stain on the Xiao family.

The only solution now is to push the matter out...

"Traditional Chinese medicine? I bet you're the one who added it. And you're deliberately trying to play the good guy, aren't you? You're an employee kicked out of the Nie family, with a filthy mind. Why don't you just die? You're going to jail."

Zhou Jin frowned: "The medicine wasn't mine..."

"He forced me to drink a glass of wine, Dad. I... I just wanted to change into a dress. I never thought I would be targeted. Luckily, everyone arrived in time, otherwise I... Waaah."

Zhou Jin's face froze. He turned and stared at Xiao Yue, watching the tears rolling down her pale face. For the first time, he felt a deep sense of irony.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Xiao's eyes lit up with joy, meaning there was still no... room for the situation to turn around. He immediately shouted angrily, "Quickly, send this despicable thing to the police station first."

Shen Yu's eyes flickered slightly, and a purplish-red glint flashed in Xiao Cha's eyes. She immediately stepped forward.

"Wait a minute, Dad, this must be a misunderstanding. Mr. Zhou and my sister have always been on good terms. They meet privately all the time. How could he possibly drug my sister?"

Xiao Cha's innocent and naive question almost made her father so angry that he vomited blood.
