Chapter 9
Shen Jinghan's kiss was urgent and fierce, with unspeakable anger.
Lin Ran was trapped in his arms and forced to endure his violent kiss.
Is he crazy? People come here at any time. If she is caught, she dare not think about the consequences.
"Let go..."
She opened her mouth, and the man took the opportunity to enter and kiss her deeper.
Lin Ran was almost suffocated by the kiss.
The two people's breathing gradually became disordered.
Shen Jinghan's anger subsided, and he saw that her body had become soft like a pool of spring water, her eyes dimmed slightly, and her blood was faintly hot, rushing straight to the most private place.
He restrained himself and let go of her. Seeing that she was breathing heavily, her perennially pale face had a hint of color, her eyes dimmed, and he reached out to touch her little face.
Lin Ran was furious and slapped him without thinking.
The night is cold and gloomy.
Shen Jinghan pinched her chin, smiled instead of getting angry, and spoke dangerously, word by word: "Come to the study tonight!"
Imperative tone.
Lin Ran couldn't help but shiver when the cold wind blew, and she pushed him away and ran back.
Shen Jinghan looked at her back, touched his beaten cheek, and sneered. After being out in the wild for so many years, she has become very brave. It is time to cut off her little claws.
When Lin Ran returned to the side hall, she noticed that the atmosphere there was not right.
Shen Zhongqi was eating his midnight snack with a gloomy face, while Chen Zhi was crying beside him, her makeup was smudged.
When Lin Ruolan saw her come in, she kept winking at her, asking her to go out and hide.
Lin Ran froze at the doorway. Behind her stood the ferocious Shen Jinghan. She had just slapped him, and if she turned back now, she was afraid she would die at his hands. In front of her stood the mad Shen Zhi. She chose the lesser of two evils. She gritted her teeth and entered the side hall.
When Chen Zhi saw her, he screamed, "How dare you come back, you fickle bitch? You seduced my second brother before, causing him to be kicked out by my eldest brother, and now you seduce Brother Yuan Bai again. He is the man I want to marry, I will fight you."
Chen Zhi screamed and came forward to grab her. There were diamonds on the nails of his ten fingers. If she scratched them, ten blood marks would probably be left immediately.
Lin Ran had been slapped by her before, so how could she let her succeed again?
She quickly hid behind the sofa and said, "You are slandering me. He Yuanbai and I haven't even exchanged a few words. You have been chasing her for ten years but still can't get her. Every time you see a woman, you think she is going to throw herself at you."
Chen Zhi was stabbed in the heart by her and was so angry that she picked up the vase on the coffee table and smashed it at her, crying, "You and I are irreconcilable. In this family, either I or you, or you or me."
The antique vase was smashed to pieces.
Lin Ran couldn't dodge in time, and his calf was hit by the fragments, leaving two bloody marks in an instant.
Her almond-shaped eyes were dark and sparkling, surprisingly bright, and she curled her lips provocatively at Chen Zhi.
Chen Zhi was so stimulated that he went completely crazy. He started smashing things around and the side hall was in a mess.
"That's enough." Shen Zhongqi slammed the table fiercely, his face full of anger and said, "Someone come here."
The butler and bodyguard came in.
Shen Zhongqi said angrily: "Lock Lin Ran in the basement and don't give her any food without my permission."
Lin Ran's face was expressionless; this was all expected. Over the years, no matter who got into trouble, she was always the one who got punished. Shen Zhongqi wouldn't hit her, but would just put her in solitary confinement and deprive her of food.
Being locked up in a small dark room in the basement can drive a person crazy.
Shen Zhi exclaimed triumphantly, "Starve her to death."
Lin Ran looked indifferent and walked straight towards the basement.
"Wait." An indifferent voice came from outside. Shen Jinghan walked into the house with a chill all over his body. He glanced at the messy side hall and his handsome face sank slightly.
"Who smashed it?"
Chen Zhi shuddered with fright.
The butler and bodyguards didn't dare to speak.
Shen Jinghan narrowed his eyes, looked at Shen Zhongqi, and sneered: "Lock Shen Zhi in the basement, or tell her to get out and never set foot in Shen Garden again!"
Shen Zhongqi frowned and said unhappily: "Jinghan, she is your sister. The future marriage with the He family depends on her."
If the Shen family had a suitable marriage partner, would he still need to protect this useless person?
Shen Jinghan's marriage was arranged by his grandfather. Shen Zhuoyu had not returned for seven years, and he had no control over his two sons. Now he could only rely on Shen Zhi to arrange a marriage.
Chen Jinghan sneered, and said word by word, "Is she worthy? She's not even worthy of giving birth to a child."
This one sentence humiliated several people present, not only Shen Zhongqi, who had a chaotic private life, the mistress Lin Ruolan, but also the illegitimate daughter Shen Zhi.
Chen Zhi cried out in humiliation.
Everyone's face looked a little ugly.
Lin Ran observed his nose with her eyes and his heart with her nose. It turned out that he not only liked to humiliate her, but when it came to humiliating others, he even didn't let his own father go!
She felt a little regretful that she shouldn't have hit him so impulsively just now!
Why did you do it?
Thinking of the possible retaliation she might face later, she couldn't help but shudder. For the first time, she felt that solitary confinement was not a painful thing.
The father and son faced each other coldly.
Shen Zhongqi looked at his eldest son and thought of his unpredictable tactics in the business world over the years, and felt inexplicably frightened.
The eldest son was a thoughtful person who never showed his emotions on his face. He had not been close to his father since childhood. When he was one year old, he was taken to the Mei family by his grandfather and taught personally.
While other children were still acting coquettishly and cutely, he was already following Mr. Mei to listen to the board reports, read financial statements, and demonstrated high intelligence and extraordinary talent.
The first decision he made after taking over the company as an adult was to cash out and sell off real estate-related industries, and then to make early arrangements in AI and medical care, vigorously developing technology and innovative drugs. Now, the market value of Shanshi Technology, a company under his name, has reached one trillion yuan, and its valuation is still rising wildly, not to mention the innovative drugs that are scarce in the market.
Therefore, Shen Zhongqi really didn't dare to offend this eldest son, and was even a little afraid of him.
Shen Zhongqi narrowed his eyes, thinking it was pointless to offend his eldest son for a daughter who was nothing, so he waved his hand and said, "Lock them both in the basement."
Chen Zhi cried in disbelief: "Dad, big brother is crazy, are you crazy too? Why do you care about me? It was Lin Ran who seduced Brother Yuan Bai!"
Shen Zhongqi angrily scolded: "Useless thing, you can't even handle He Yuanbai, what's the use of you, reflect on yourself."
Chen Zhi was taken to the basement by bodyguards crying all the way.
Lin Ran followed him downstairs. As she went downstairs, she felt a cold gaze looking at her, which made her scalp tingle.
In addition to the wine cellar, the basement of Chenyuan is also a storage room.
Lin Ran was locked up in a storage room, which was also the only one with a window.
From next door came Chenzhi's crying and cursing.
She sat by the window, looking at the moonlight outside, and for some reason her heart suddenly became calm. This was her place, locked in a dark room, like a bruised stray cat, not the so-called Fifth Miss of Chenyuan.
She was not so lucky, as the gift from fate had already been priced.
Lin Ran hugged her knees, curled up her body, leaned against the wall and fell into a deep sleep. The only thought in her mind before she fell asleep was that it was a good thing that she had taken medicine so that she could have a peaceful night.

The housekeeper led his men to clean up the side hall. Seeing the eldest young master standing in front of the window with a rage on his face, he said in a low voice, "Young master, it's late."
The commotion lasted until after midnight.
The eldest young master has always had a strict schedule in recent years, going out early and returning late regardless of rain or shine, but in the past two days, Fu Nian came to Chen Garden with important documents.
Shen Jinghan's handsome face was covered with a layer of ice, and he didn't say a word.
The housekeeper sighed, thinking of something, and reported in a low voice, "The kitchen said that the fifth young lady didn't eat dinner, and only ate a bite or two at noon. The basement is dark and damp. Do you need me to bring some hot water?"
Chen Jinghan lowered his eyes, his expression unable to tell whether he was happy or angry. Just when the housekeeper was about to give up, he heard him say in a low voice: "Chen Garden has never been the Garden of Eden."
Kind and weak people will be devoured here without leaving even a bone.
So she should have faced the reality long ago. Either she should have been like a dodder, relying on the strongest, or like a weed that grew again in the spring breeze, and become independent and strong.
He was waiting for her to bow her head and surrender!
