   Reader note

   "With the recent flu outbreak, please take precautions, reduce your visits to public places, avoid unnecessary gatherings, and keep warm..." The female news anchor's clear and articulate voice echoed in the slightly noisy living room. "Han Qingxia! Did you hear me?!" A sharp, furious shout, like a cold awl, pierced the background noise of the news broadcast. Han Qingxia, who was staring at the television screen and leaning slightly forward, trembled violently! She turned her head sharply, her pupils contracting sharply in extreme shock, staring incredulously at what she saw. A familiar yet strange scene crashed into her eyes: a 30-square-meter, old-fashioned living room with outdated decor; faded New Year pictures hanging on the walls; a heavy old mahogany sofa, crowded with people—all her blood relatives or legal relatives. In the very center, a plump old woman in her sixties or seventies with thinning gray hair sat upright. Her plump, sagging face flushed crimson with rage, her loose facial muscles twitching with each heavy breath. Her cloudy eyes, now like poisoned hooks, were fixed on Han Qingxia, as if she wanted to tear a piece of flesh from her with her gaze. Han Qingxia's heart pounded wildly in her chest, almost bursting through her ribs. A chilling coldness shot from her tailbone to the top of her head, freezing her limbs. This... This was clearly half a month before the apocalypse! It was the scene of her so-called "good grandmother," "good father," and "good stepmother," accompanied by a group of uncles and aunts, storming into her house, forcing her to vacate the only property left by her mother, to be used as a wedding home for her "brother," to whom she had no blood relation! She was... She was just a moment ago on the city wall of the eastern base! The boundless, stench-filled horde of zombies, like a black sea of death, instantly engulfed her. Cold, viscous corpse fluid filled her mouth and nose, and the excruciating pain of her bones being torn apart still lingered in her nerve endings… "Han Qingxia! After your mother left, how did your stepmother treat you? She treated you with all her heart! Better than a biological mother! Everyone in the neighborhood speaks highly of her!" The plump old woman, her biological grandmother Wang Jinhua, spat almost onto Han Qingxia's face, her voice sharp and sarcastic. "Now that your brother is getting married, and the house is small, what's wrong with borrowing this empty house from you? Huh? Your own brother! Do you have to be so stingy? You're an ungrateful wretch! You've eaten your conscience!" "Mom, calm down, don't say that to Qingxia." Sitting next to Wang Jinhua, a similarly plump, brightly dressed middle-aged woman immediately spoke up in a "gentle" tone. This was Han Qingxia's stepmother, Li Lin. A fake, overtly friendly smile plastered on her face as she patted the old woman's arm lightly. "Qingxia is a sensible child; she knows what's good for her. How could she not help her brother? Right, Qingxia?" As she spoke, her gaze swept over Han Qingxia, the calculation and self-righteousness hidden in her eyes something Han Qingxia had foolishly mistaken for "motherly love" in her past life. "Hmph!" Wang Jinhua snorted heavily, her thick chin raised, and continued in a condescending tone, "Did you hear that? Hand over the keys right now! You've rented this house out for so many years, and it's a complete mess! Your brother said all that broken furniture needs to be replaced, otherwise it can't be used as a wedding room! You have to pay for it! He's your own brother! He's getting married; shouldn't you, as his sister, provide something decent?!" The gazes of the group—some contemptuous, some greedy, some indifferent, some feigning "mediation"—were all focused on the slightly thin figure in the center of the living room. Han Qingxia stood quietly, her eyelids lowered, her long eyelashes casting a small shadow on her pale face. No one saw the raging storm churning within her eyes—the blood and fire of ten years of struggling to survive in the apocalypse, the deep-seated hatred of being betrayed and pushed into the jaws of death countless times by her closest relatives! In her past life… she had actually believed! Believed Li Lin's feigned "goodness," believed the so-called "family affection" of these vampires! Like a fool, she not only obediently handed over the only place her mother had given her, a place her mother had risked her life for, but even emptied her meager savings from several years of work to buy them "decent" new furniture! And what was the result? The apocalypse arrived, order collapsed, humanity was lost. Every time danger struck, every time sacrifice was needed, she was always the first to be pushed out as a human shield against zombies! For a piece of moldy bread, her "good brother" would unhesitatingly turn his fist on her! And finally, just as the base rescue vehicle, symbolizing a path to survival, was about to depart, it was this group of "blood relatives" before her who, in order to squeeze onto the vehicle, used all their strength to shove her—the one blocking their way—into the surging horde of zombies behind them! The chilling despair, the excruciating pain of being torn apart, and the instantly filling eardrums with the excited roars of zombies… The last thing she saw before dying was their indifferent, even slightly relieved, profiles after they had squeezed onto the vehicle! Ten years of struggle in the apocalypse, countless life-or-death trials had hardened her cold heart, which was now ignited by overwhelming hatred! "Heh…" A very soft, very cold laugh escaped Han Qingxia's lips without warning. The laugh was soft, yet like an icicle falling to the ground, instantly drowning out all the noise in the living room. Wang Jinhua's cursing stopped abruptly, Li Lin's hypocritical smile froze on her face, and all the "relatives" sitting and standing on the sofa stared at her in astonishment. Han Qingxia slowly raised her head. Her eyes, no longer filled with the confusion and bewilderment of moments before, were now hardened with ice, burning with a ghostly flame, carrying a chilling and mocking coldness that seemed to pierce through everything, looking down upon ants. Her gaze, like a cold blade, swept over the greedy, calculating, and hypocritical faces of these so-called "relatives" before her. "Is it funny?" Her voice was terrifyingly calm, without a trace of emotion, yet it clearly reached everyone's ears. "You want my house, and you want me to pay for your new furniture?" A sardonic smile curled at the corner of her lips, her eyes looking at a group of clowns. "You... Are your faces made of city wall corners?"

    [Ancient Style Sweet Romance Novel | "The Transfer Student"] In September, a light rain fell on Jiangcheng. Inside a coffee shop, Shi Yinan rested her chin on her hand, gazing at the rain, her eyes like still water, her thoughts seemingly adrift. Cheng Hong snapped his fingers, bringing her back to reality. He raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile, "What are you looking at?" She stirred her coffee and replied indifferently, "Nothing." Cheng Hong feigned grievance: "You won't tell me, yet you asked me to come. Perhaps you miss me?" Shi Yinan gave him a cold look, her fingertips twitching as if to tap his forehead, but he dodged it with a laugh. On the first day of their second year of high school, she skipped class. Cheng Hong wasn't annoyed; he simply searched for her in the rain with an umbrella, not caring that his clothes were getting wet. He knew her personality was as aloof as autumn rain, yet he still tried to warm her heart. "Cheng Hong, aren't you annoying?" "Annoying, but who can blame me for wanting to annoy you?" In the rain, the boy smiled languidly, and the girl's ears turned slightly red. A chance encounter at a transfer school turned him into her inseparable "little shadow," doting on her, teasing her, and protecting her, warming her cold and indifferent life like a poem in springtime. — [The Transfer Student is overflowing with sweetness!

    --- The bedside lamp is like a tired eye, barely able to open a cloudy haze. That pitiful halo struggled to smear on Luo Ning's face, reflecting the turbulent waves surging deep in her eyes. She hugged the thin quilt tightly, as if it was the last fragile shield against this strange room. Bursts of tearing dull pain came from deep within her body, and every slight movement involved hidden nerve endings, reminding her of the unspeakable storm last night. "If you want," the voice was as dry as sandpaper rubbing against the throat, and every word was exhausted, "we can get the marriage certificate now." The air solidified. Dust danced crazily in the dim light beam, making a silent noise. The man on the single sofa was naked from the waist up, and his well-defined muscles looked like some kind of dormant, cold sculpture in the dim light. He held the cigarette between his fingers, and the scarlet fire flickered in and out between his silent words, like a malicious eye in the darkness. The rising bluish-gray smoke blurred his eyebrows, and only the tight lines of the word "Chuan" were as clear as a knife carving. In the smoke, his eyes were heavy and scrutinizing, silently pressing on her, almost suffocating her. Luo Ning curled up subconsciously and pressed her knees against her chest. The tearing pain hit her sharply again. She couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and the slight gasping sound was particularly harsh in the silence. The man put out the cigarette, and the scarlet flame struggled in the ashtray for a few times before it was completely extinguished, leaving only a twisted wisp of green smoke. He stood up, his powerful body casting a huge shadow in the gloom, almost completely covering her. "Do you want to go to the hospital?" His voice was low and without warmth, but there was a rare hint of hesitation. Luo Ning suddenly came back to his senses, as if he was burned by the sound, he shook his head quickly, his movements touched the painful area, and his brows instantly tightened. "No need," she replied almost through gritted teeth, trying to keep her voice steady, "I am a doctor myself, I'm fine." Compared with the sharp, tearing dull pain deep in her body, what made her internal organs tighten even more were the chaotic, hot, and completely out-of-control fragments from last night. They were like red-hot irons, burning repeatedly in her mind - cousin Luochen's anxious phone call: "Ningning, hurry! Tianxi Hotel 1808! I have a very important client who suddenly feels very uncomfortable and is dying! You are a doctor, help me!"; When she rushed there, Luochen's face full of false concern, And the glass of cold orange juice that was passed to me... After half a glass of it was consumed, the heat suddenly exploded deep in the body, like countless tiny poisonous insects gnawing in the blood vessels, and the mind was instantly burned to ashes; and later, the bathroom door opened, and the man in front of him walked out silently, like a moving mountain, with a compelling and irresistible aura... She closed her eyes hard, trying to squeeze those images out of her mind, and her nails dug deeply into the soft quilt in her palms. The man didn't ask any more questions. He turned and walked towards the bathroom, and a moment later there was the sound of running water. Luo Ning opened his eyes and stared blankly at the blurry spot on the ceiling that was dimmed by the light. His heart thumped heavily in his chest, one after another. After an unknown amount of time, the sound of water stopped. The man walked out, with only a bath towel loosely wrapped around his waist, and water was still dripping from the ends of his hair. He walked straight to the clothes scattered on the ground and picked them up one by one, moving slowly and with an almost cold calmness. The silence weighed on Luoning's heart like a huge stone, leaving her breathless. She watched him put on black trousers, his strong waistline rising and falling with his movements. Just as he picked up the dark gray shirt, Luo Ning's voice sounded again, with a desperate determination, breaking the suffocating silence: "What I just said counts." She stared at his broad back, "Get the certificate." The man buttoned the buttons without any pause, as smoothly as if he was just completing an ordinary daily step. He fastened the last button, turned around, and his eyes fell calmly on her face, those deep eyes like two bottomless pools of cold water. "Okay." A single word, crisp and clear, without any unnecessary questions or hesitations. He bent down, took out his mobile phone from the scattered coat pocket, and tapped the screen quickly with his fingertips. Then, he walked towards the bed, and under Luo Ning's tight gaze, he bent down and picked up her clothes that were also scattered on the floor - a wrinkled off-white dress, and... Her most intimate clothes. There was no hint of intimacy or hesitation in his movements, it was as pure as handling an object to be cleaned. He placed the clothes on the edge of the bed beside her. "Get dressed," the voice remained calm, "the car is downstairs." After saying that, he picked up his coat and mobile phone and walked straight to the door without looking back, "I'll wait for you in the lobby in fifteen minutes." The door lock made a slight click, and Luo Ning was the only one left in the room, with the still dim light. The huge, cold shame instantly overwhelmed her, a hundred times worse than the physical pain. She grabbed the dress, and the fabric rubbed against her sensitive skin, causing a sharp sting. She bit her lower lip and tasted a hint of sweet rust. Tears rolled crazily in her eyes, and she forced them back again. Can't cry. Now is not the time to cry. Luochen... This name was like a poisonous needle, piercing into her mind. She must know why he did this! What on earth was put in that glass of orange juice! She endured the severe pain and quickly got dressed. The person in the mirror looked as pale as a ghost, his eyes were covered in thick blue and black, and there was blood oozing from the bitten lip. She straightened her messy long hair, took a deep breath, suppressed the choking in her throat and physical discomfort, opened the door, and walked into the cold hotel corridor outside. The light was pale and dazzling, and every step on the thick carpet felt like stepping on the tips of needles. In the lobby, the man was leaning against a smooth marble column. His posture was relaxed, but he had a chilling aura that kept strangers away. He raised his eyes and saw her, but said nothing, only raised his chin toward the door. A black car with cold lines slid silently to the door of the hotel. The man opened the car door and motioned for her to enter. Luo Ning sat in, and the car was filled with a refreshing smell of cedar and leather, clean but with a sense of distance. The man then sat in the driver's seat, the engine started quietly, and the vehicle merged smoothly into the sparse early morning traffic. The city outside the car window is gradually waking up in the morning light, and the glass curtain walls of high-rise buildings reflect cool light. Luo Ning leaned back on the cold leather seat. The fatigue and pain in her body hit her like a tide, making her just want to fall asleep. But she forced herself to keep her eyes open. Her brain was dizzy and swollen under the residual influence of the drug, but it turned tenaciously: Who is he? When Luochen set up this trap, was she the target or the man who drove silently? Receive the certificate... Is this decision right or wrong? A huge, unknown whirlpool was right in front of her, and she had just jumped into it. The direction the car is traveling is becoming more and more familiar. When the towering twin towers with a modern and oppressive design appeared in sight, Luo Ning's heart sank suddenly - that was the headquarters of the "Lo Group" and the core symbol of the Luo family's business empire. Cousin Luochen's office is on the top floor, overlooking the entire city. However, the car did not drive towards the iconic entrance of the Lowe Building. It turned smoothly, and under the gaze of Luo Ning's suddenly shrinking pupils, it stopped steadily directly opposite the Lowe's Building! Across a busy street about thirty meters wide, the building that symbolized the power of the Luo family was like a silent giant. The cold glass curtain wall clearly reflected their inconspicuous black car. The man turned off the engine, unbuckled his seat belt, and looked at her sideways. His tone was calm, but with an unquestionable command: "Get out of the car." Luo Ning's heart beat wildly in his chest, causing pain in his ribs. She understood his intention instantly. This is the area with the best view of Lowe's Building! The giant floor-to-ceiling windows in the lobby, the ubiquitous high-definition surveillance cameras at the door... In the building opposite, there are probably countless pairs of eyes, or cold lenses, pointed at this location! She opened the car door stiffly, and the chilly morning air rushed in, making her shiver. The man walked around the front of the car and walked to her. He was tall, casting a shadow that almost completely covered her. He stretched out his hand, his movements natural but with an irresistible force, and held her hand. Luo Ning's body tensed instantly, his fingertips were cold, and he subconsciously wanted to withdraw, but was firmly held by his dry and strong palm. His palms were warm, even a little hot, in stark contrast to her cold fingertips. The heat seemed to be carrying electricity, running straight up his arms. "Let's go." He held her hand and strode toward the small, inconspicuous Civil Affairs Service Center opposite. The steps were firm and there was no hesitation. Luo Ning felt like a puppet, being led by his strong hands and moving passively. Every step is on the tip of the knife. She could clearly feel the invisible, cold gazes coming from the direction of the Lowe Building, like countless needles pricking her back. When I walked into the service center, the air conditioner was on full blast. There were only a few couples waiting inside, and the air was filled with the dull smell of disinfectant and paper. The process was breathtakingly fast. The staff's formulaic inquiries, the rustling sound of printing forms, the dull and clear "click" when the steel seal fell... Luo Ning cooperated numbly throughout the process, his mind went blank. It wasn't until two bright red booklets with the gilded national emblem were handed to her and the man's hands respectively that the heavy touch hit her chaotic consciousness like a heavy hammer. She lowered her head and looked at the document that belonged to her. The words "marriage certificate" on the cover made her eyes hurt. She opened it and found the photos she had just taken of her and him side by side. In the photo, she looks pale, has empty eyes, and purses her lips, like a prisoner awaiting trial. And the man next to her—only then did she really see his name: Lu Chen. In the photo, he has a stern expression, clear-cut features, and bottomless eyes. Lu Chen. This name was like a cold stone thrown into stagnant water, causing a slight ripple in her heart, which was then submerged by deeper confusion and fear. Who is he? Why Lu Chen? Lu Chen put away his ID and held her hand again, but he was still too strong to break free. He led her out of the glass door of the service center and stood opposite the Lowe Building again. This time, he did not immediately walk to the car parked on the roadside, but deliberately stopped, turned around, and faced the huge glass curtain wall of the Lowe Building. The sunlight hit him from the side, outlining his tall and cold silhouette. He held her hand and raised it to the height of his chest. The two brand-new, dazzlingly red marriage certificates were displayed by him intentionally or unintentionally, reflecting a light that could not be ignored in the sunlight. He even tilted his head slightly, his gaze seemed to penetrate the thick glass wall and cast it accurately in a specific direction. A very faint and cold arc appeared at the corner of his mouth, which flashed away. Luo Ning's heartbeat almost stopped. She stood there stiffly, and could clearly feel that in the building opposite, behind a high-rise window, a cold and sharp gaze was fixed on them, on the two dazzling red books. That sight, with unbelievable shock and overwhelming anger, still made her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave even from a distance of dozens of meters. Lu Chen finally let go of her hand. He didn't look at her again and walked straight to the car. "Get in the car." There was no emotion in his voice. Luo Ning didn't know how he got back into the passenger seat. The car started and merged into traffic. She clutched the hot marriage certificate in her hand, her knuckles turning white from the exertion. The pain in her body, the humiliation and fear in her heart, the anger of being calculated, and the unknown fear of the strange man beside her, were like countless cold poisonous snakes wrapping around her, tightening tighter and tighter. She leaned against the cold car window, looking at the rapidly regressing street scene outside, her eyes empty. Is this absurd marriage a desperate move, or has she fallen into another deeper, carefully woven trap? The car finally stopped at the foot of a high-end apartment building in a quiet environment. Lu Chenwei spoke and motioned for her to get out of the car. The elevator rose smoothly and stopped at a floor. He opened a heavy security door and let her in sideways. "You live here." It was still a concise command sentence without any unnecessary explanation. He pointed to a bedroom next to the living room, "That one." The apartment was large, decorated in a cold modern style, with black and white as the main colors, clean lines, and spotless, but it was as empty and cold as a carefully built model apartment, without the slightest smell of inhabited fireworks. The huge floor-to-ceiling windows reveal the bustling cityscape, and the sunlight shines in unbridled, but it cannot dispel the deep-seated desolation. "Clothes," Lu Chen's voice interrupted her inspection. He walked up to her at some point and handed over a heavy paper bag with the logo of a high-end shopping mall printed on it. The outline of soft clothes could be vaguely seen inside, "New." His eyes briefly stayed on the wrinkled off-white dress she was wearing, and his eyes made Luo Ning subconsciously cross her arms again. "The bathroom is over there." He raised his chin in one direction, "Take care of it yourself." Luo Ning took the paper bag and touched the soft fabric with his fingertips, but it felt like holding red hot coals. She lowered her head, walked quickly to the bedroom he pointed to, closed the door, and leaned her back against the cold door panel before daring to take a deep breath. The pain and exhaustion in her body came overwhelmingly, and she slid to the ground, hugging the paper bag like the only driftwood she could hold on to. Tears of humiliation finally broke through the floodgates and surged out, silently soaking the brand new fabric. She bit her wrist tightly to prevent herself from crying. I don't know how long it took, but the sound of the door closing as Lu Chen left was heard. The apartment fell into complete silence. Luo Ning held on to the wall, stood up with difficulty, and walked into the bathroom that came with the bedroom. The warm water rushed down, but it could not wash away the burning sensation on the skin and the fatigue that penetrated into the bone marrow. In the mirror, the bruises on his body were shocking, silently telling of the madness last night. She closed her eyes and let the water wash over her cheeks. Put on brand-new, high-quality clothes in a paper bag, and the size unexpectedly fits. She threw herself on the unfamiliar big bed, and the crisp cedar smell seemed to be tainted in the quilt. The extreme physical discomfort and high mental tension caused her to quickly fall into a drowsy, half-dreaming state. His mind was full of chaotic fragments: Luo Chen's hypocritical face, the glass of cold orange juice, Lu Chen's silhouette smoking silently, the "click" sound of the steel seal falling, and the cold glass curtain wall of the Lowe Building... Finally, it was fixed on Lu Chen's last, cold and mocking silhouette facing the building. Early the next morning, Luo Ning was awakened by the constant vibration of his cell phone. The name of his father Luo Mingyuan danced on the screen. She answered the phone, and her father's voice was filled with unprecedented solemnity and a hint of imperceptible anxiety: "Ning Ning, go back to the headquarters immediately. The large conference room on the top floor. The board of directors, emergency meeting. Be there soon!" Luo Ning's heart sank suddenly. Coming. She took a deep breath, suppressed the pain in her body and the turmoil in her heart, and stood up quickly. The face of the person in the mirror is still pale, but his eyes are like tempered ice, with a coldness that is like breaking a cauldron. She picked up the handbag containing the marriage certificate. The small red book seemed to be very heavy at the moment. On the top floor of the Lowe Group headquarters, in the huge circular conference room, the atmosphere was so solemn that you could squeeze water out of it. Both sides of the long dark conference table were filled with core members of the Luo family and group directors, all with serious faces. Luo Mingyuan sat in the main seat, frowning. Luo Chen, on the other hand, was sitting under his father Luo Mingyuan, with a complicated look on his face that was determined to win, mixed with hypocritical concern. When Luo Ning opened the door and came in, everyone's eyes were instantly focused on her, with some inquiry, some contempt, and more of a kind of indifference waiting for a good show. Luo Ning straightened his back, ignored those glances, walked to the reserved seat next to his father Luo Mingyuan and sat down. She could clearly feel Luo Chen's gaze, with undisguised pride and a hint of cold threat. "Okay, everyone is here." Luo Mingyuan's voice was tired, and his eyes swept across the audience, and finally landed on Luo Ning's face, with a hint of pain and helplessness, "Today's emergency meeting is for... For the reputation of our Luo family, and for Ning Ning's future." He paused, as if it was difficult to speak. Luo Chen immediately took over the conversation, with a solemn tone and a sense of righteousness and annihilation: "Uncle, I know this is hard to accept. But for the group and the family, some things must be put on the table and made clear." He stood up, holding a thin tablet in his hand, and looked at Luo Ning with compassion, "Ning Ning, cousin knows that you are feeling uncomfortable, but things have happened and we must face it." He slid his fingers on the tablet. The next second, a high-definition photo suddenly appeared on the huge projection screen in front of the conference room! The background of the photo is the dim light of the hotel room, and the angle is extremely tricky and private! In the photo, Luo Ning's clothes are messy, his eyes are blurred, and he is being held tightly in the arms of a shirtless man, with only his strong back and arms visible! The picture is extremely impactful and full of unsightly hints! There was an uproar in the conference room instantly! Gasps and muffled comments came and went. The faces of the directors became extremely ugly, and their eyes towards Luo Ning were full of unabashed contempt and disgust. Luo Ning felt a rush of cold blood rushing directly to the top of his head, and the blood in his whole body seemed to be frozen. She stared intently at the enlarged and extremely humiliating photo on the screen. Her nails dug deeply into her palms, causing sharp pain, but it was far less than one ten thousandth of the feeling of being torn apart in her heart. She suddenly turned her head to look at Luo Chen, with cold fire burning in her eyes. "Ning Ning," Luo Chen's voice sounded at the right time, full of "pain" and "helplessness". He walked to the projection and pointed at the back of the man in the photo, "The matter has come to this. For your reputation, as well as to calm the turmoil and restore the reputation of the group, the best solution is to facilitate your relationship with him as soon as possible. The marriage of this...'Mr. Lu'." He deliberately emphasized the word "Mr. Lu" and glanced at the directors present, with some hint, "Although the Lu family has been in turmoil in recent years, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. A marriage with our Luo family is a good match and can stop Youyou's mouth." He turned to Luo Ning, with extremely hypocritical "sincerity" on his face: "Ning Ning, my cousin is doing this for your own good and for the good of the Luo family. As long as you nod, my cousin will immediately communicate with the Lu family about the follow-up matters..." Luo Mingyuan closed his eyes in pain, as if he had aged a lot in an instant. The directors were discussing in low voices, looking between Luo Ning and Luo Chen. Luo Ning stood up slowly. His body was still trembling slightly, not because of fear, but because of extremely suppressed anger. She looked at Luo Chen's hypocritical face, at the indifferent or calculating looks of the directors, and finally at the deep weakness in her father Luo Mingyuan's eyes. All the humiliation, anger, and severe pain of being betrayed by a loved one turned into cold determination at this moment. She took a deep breath, and slowly and firmly opened her handbag under Luo Chenzhi's proud eyes and the gazes of everyone in the room. She took out the dazzlingly bright red marriage certificate, with clear and powerful movements, and raised it high, facing Luo Chen and the huge projection screen, exposing the gold-plated national emblem and the three clear words "Marriage Certificate" to everyone's astonished eyes. Her voice was not loud, but it was extremely clear, with a kind of coldness that was as cold as stone, and penetrated the dead air in the conference room: "Marriage?" The corner of her lips raised a very cold arc, and her eyes were like sharp blades piercing Luo Chen, who froze for a moment, "Don't bother." Every word was like ice beads hitting the ground. "I'm married." She paused and glanced across the shocked, speechless faces of the audience. Finally, she focused on Luo Chen's face, which suddenly turned pale and was filled with disbelief. She uttered the last sentence clearly: "The target, the heir of the Lu Group, Lu Chen." Dead silence. Absolute silence. Time seems to be frozen. In the huge conference room, only the faint hum of the air conditioning system was left. On the projection screen, the carefully selected and humiliating photo was still brightly lit, but at this moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on the small, bright red marriage certificate held high by Luo Ning. The expression on Luochen's face was wonderful. The proud mask of being determined to win and control everything instantly shattered, and was replaced by a kind of horror and confusion like seeing a ghost. His mouth was open, his eyes seemed to bulge out of their sockets, and he stared at the red booklet, as if he wanted to burn it through with his gaze. He suddenly looked at Luo Ning, his eyes full of crazy questions and a kind of fooled rage. "Impossible!" He screamed, his voice distorted due to extreme shock and panic. He took a step forward suddenly, as if he wanted to rush over and snatch the certificate, "You lied! Luo Ning! In order to avoid responsibility, you dare to forge..." At this moment, the thick double-carved wooden door of the conference room was pushed open silently. A tall and straight figure appeared at the door. Against the light of the corridor outside the door, it was like a sudden shadow, instantly catching everyone's breath. A well-tailored dark suit wrapped around his figure with broad shoulders and narrow waist. His steps were steady and carried a silent pressure. He walked in, and his leather shoes made a clear, cold tapping sound on the smooth marble floor. Every step seemed to step on everyone's tense heartstrings. Lu Chen. He walked straight to Luo Ning, who was standing frozen on the spot, and naturally stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around her shoulders that were shaking slightly due to tension. It was a gesture of ownership and protection, with undeniable force. His body temperature spread through the thin fabric, strangely bringing a hint of support. Luo Ning's stiff body actually relaxed slightly in his arms for a moment. Lu Chen's gaze, like a sharp blade tempered by ice, passed over the stunned directors in the room and pinned accurately and firmly on Luo Chen's bloodless face filled with panic. Luochen seemed to have been bitten by a poisonous snake. He took a step back suddenly and hit the back of the chair behind him, making a harsh friction sound. He pointed at Lu Chen, his fingers trembling like dead leaves in the wind, his voice completely changed due to extreme fear and anger, sharply cutting through the dead silence: "Lu Chen! It's you?! Are you plotting against me?!" The muscles on his face were twisted, and his eyes were filled with the madness that had been played on his hands and a trace of despair on the verge of collapse, "This is impossible! How could you... You obviously..." Lu Chen looked at Luo Chen's gaffe, and his thin lips slowly raised upwards. It was not a gentle smile, but a cold arc with cruel playfulness and absolute control, like a beast admiring the death struggle of the prey under its claws. His arms were still holding Luoning firmly, his eyes were like looking at a flying insect struggling in vain on a spider web. In the suffocating silence, Lu Chen spoke. His voice was not high, but it was extremely clear, with a lazy casualness, as if talking about the weather. Every word was like a poisoned ice needle, accurately stabbing Luo Chen's nerves that finally collapsed: "Luo Chen," he tilted his head slightly, with undisguised contempt and ridicule in his eyes, "the glass of orange juice you gave me yesterday..." He paused deliberately, admiring Luo Chen's face, which was instantly as pale as paper, with cold sweat dripping down his face, and the completely collapsed fear deep in his pupils. Then, he added the last fatal sentence of judgment slowly and word for word: "The taste... Is not bad?"
