Pan Xin panicked when she learned from the news that Xu Hui had been arrested. She had not worked since returning to China and had been Xu Hui's bed partner behind the scenes, supported by him.
Four years ago, Pan Xin's father was doing business and sold "black five categories" products in order to make quick money. He crossed the red line and faced criminal prosecution. He has been on the run abroad for three years.
He is now struggling to support himself and occasionally asks Pan Xin for financial assistance, but he can't care about Pan Xin back home at all.
To maintain her extravagant lifestyle since childhood, Pan Xin has always been active in high society as a socialite, thanks to her beautiful figure and looks.
She met Xu Hui, a successful businessman, at a dance party.
They each got what they wanted and didn't interfere with each other. She was Xu Hui's bed partner for many years, but she didn't care that there were many other women like herself around Xu Hui.
In an attempt to find psychological balance, she became entangled with Chu Xiang while she was with Xu Hui.
This arrest meant her long-term meal ticket was gone. With her rent due next week, she was getting anxious. Her only hope now rested on Chu Xiang, who at least still had a house she could live in for free.
Thinking about this, she felt a little annoyed. She shouldn't have fallen out with Chu Xiang because of Xu Hui's involvement in finding someone.
If she doesn't want to end up homeless, she'll have to rely on Chu Xiang.
Thinking of this, she knocked on Chu Xiang's door downstairs, but no one answered.
Unbeknownst to her, Chu Xiang was currently on the sixth floor, making love with Yang Shuyun...
Chu Xiang undoubtedly gave Yang Shuyun great satisfaction. Yang Shuyun was exhausted afterwards, and she couldn't remember how many years it had been since she had such an experience.
She lay on Chu Xiang's chest, her face still flushed. Just as she was about to be intimate with him, he inappropriately mentioned Wang Feifei:
"Where was the last time you met Wang Feifei?"
Yang Shuyun, feeling jealous, said coldly:
"I ran into her at the furniture market last time, and she said she was helping a friend choose furniture."
Then she asked in a slightly angry tone:
"Who was the woman at your house last time?"
Chu Xiang wondered whether he should tell Yang Shuyun that he was looking for Wang Feifei.
Now that this is the only clue, he still wants to try to dig deeper to see if there's any more information, so he told the truth:
“Wang Feifei borrowed a lot of money from online loans in my name. I searched for her everywhere to force her to return the money, but she vanished completely as if she had evaporated from the face of the earth.”
"What you saw yesterday was out of necessity to pay off my debts; I really had no other choice."
Yang Shuyun's eyes lit up after hearing this. Nothing could be easier than giving money, and now was a perfect opportunity for her to completely win over Chu Xiang.
She stroked Chu Xiang's face and asked:
"How much money do you owe? Maybe I can help you before we find Wang Feifei."
Chu Xiang felt instantly relieved after hearing this. He took another closer look at the house's decor and furnishings. It seemed that this woman was quite wealthy, and she appeared to be very satisfied with him.
Serving her alone is much better than going to a nightclub; maybe I can solve her loan problem in one go.
He immediately changed his cold expression to one of tenderness, gently stroking Yang Shuyun's skin and sighing softly with affection:
"I only realized today that you are my treasure sister, a true beauty, and I want to be with you forever!"
Yang Shuyun's face flushed red. She hadn't heard such cheesy love words in years. Hearing them suddenly felt really good, as if they had hit a nerve, giving her heart, which had been barren for many years, the richest nourishment.
She looked at Chu Xiang with expressive eyes, her body trembling slightly...
Chu Xiang knew the time was right and quickly pressed his advantage:
“My dear sister, I don’t need much. Just lend me two million to settle the repayment issue next week. Then we’ll find Wang Feifei together and make her return the money. From now on, I’ll belong to you alone.”
At 48 years old, Yang Shuyun certainly knew what Chu Xiang was planning, but what did it matter? The most important thing was that Chu Xiang could give her what she needed most right now.
After experiencing it once, she couldn't bear to let him go.
Over the years, she has been busy working for her husband's career and acting as a lackey for the Wang family. It's time for her to give back a little. With her own abilities, it wouldn't be difficult for her to come up with two million.
She agreed to Chu Xiang's request and they arranged to meet at Chu Xiang's house in the future, so that they would be less likely to be seen by others and would be safer.
Chu Xiang breathed a sigh of relief. Although this trip hadn't yielded much progress in finding Wang Feifei, it had resolved the most pressing issue of repaying the loan. Moreover, through Yang Shuyun's relationship with Wang Feifei, there might be more clues.
Thinking of this, he straightened up and satisfied Yang Shuyun once again...
Meanwhile, Wang Feifei was deep in thought about how to perfectly hide herself while looking at the defensive fortifications of the safe house.
The building has 28 floors. When the extreme cold and apocalypse arrive, the only way to reach the safe house after the power goes out is by taking the stairs. Is there a way to completely hide it?
Or, to put it another way, to make people climbing the stairs think that the 24th floor is the top floor?
Thinking of this, Wang Feifei immediately ran out the door to observe the differences between the top floor and the other floors. She came up with a brilliant idea—
In the space outside the safe house, the stairwell was completely blocked off, and the 24th floor was disguised as the "top floor".
This plan is inexpensive, but extremely deceptive!
At that time, all that is needed is to remove the floor number signs from each floor.
In this way, outsiders would never guess which floor they had painstakingly climbed to, let alone know that there was space above the "top floor".
In this way, her safe house can be completely hidden, somewhat like a "barrier" in fantasy novels, except that Wang Feifei's barrier is a concrete wall.
However, even though she was hiding herself, she was worried that the community would be discovered because there were only a few residents.
The ice from the previous life was too powerful. Is it possible for them to find it in this life? Wang Feifei didn't know. She only knew that there were about eight households in the unfinished western section of the building. She often saw lights twinkling in the western section at night.
Because if the ice could search the area, these eight households might expose the neighborhood, and the safe house might also be affected.
With only a few poison gas grenades bought on the black market, the safe house would probably have no chance of winning a head-on confrontation.
After much thought, Wang Feifei decided to join the neighborhood's residents' group chat to get to know her neighbors better...
