Author: Luo Yi gave her snow MACHINE TRANSLATION
“ZIMO! ” After leaving the hospital, Xiao Qingqing caught up with Xin Zimo who was walking in front. “shall we go straight to the reception now? ”
“Yes. ” When they arrived at the parking lot and walked in front of their Mercedes, Xin Zimo opened the car door, put on his sunglasses, and sat directly in the driver’s seat. Seeing that Xin Zimo was so ungentlemanly, Xiao Qingqing could only curl her lips and open the car door herself She sat in the passenger seat.
The summer days were especially long. When the car was driving on the wide road, it was the time when the sun was setting. The golden sunlight shone on Xin Zimo’s face through the car window. He could not help but narrow his eyes slightly, and that handsome face was clearly defined.
“Zimo, the court will be held in three days. Is there anything I can help you with? ” Xiao Qingqing took out a makeup mirror from her bag. As she touched up her makeup, she said proudly.
“No need, ” Xin Zimo said plainly, “lawyer Chen will arrange it. ”
“Oh, then I will go and listen in. After all, I have lived and stayed in the world before. If you need me to provide evidence, I might be able to help. ” Xiao Qingqing’s intention was not to get drunk. She clearly wanted to see du Anran’s current predicament She wanted to see how such a young lady from a prestigious family would fall from the clouds into the abyss.
Xin Zimo did not speak again, but focused on the road ahead.
Du Anran returned home after leaving the hospital. On the way home, her slightly swollen hand was faintly aching. Holding the court flyer tightly, her heart was filled with a trace of bitterness. Three days later, they met in court. Goodbye, and never again.
“ANRAN! ” Before she could step into the courtyard, her mother, Bai Ruyun, ran out.
Du Anran was shocked. Her mother had always been calm, but now, what happened?
“Anran, ” Bai Ruyun called out again, “your uncle was detained in the bar. ”
Du Anran frowned. If Xin Zimo was a heartless person, then her uncle was a troublemaker. If her uncle had not owed tens of millions of gambling debts and secretly sold his shares, perhaps shihe would not be so miserable, and she would not have fallen to such a state. It was probably good. If it was not for this accident, who would be able to see a person’s true colors… …
“uncle is making trouble again. ” Du Anran sighed. She could not do anything about it. After her father passed away when she was fourteen, it was her uncle who had been taking care of her and her mother. During those years, her uncle doted on her and managed the company very well. However, ever since he got into the bad habit of gambling at the end of last year, everything changed quietly.
“I’ll go find uncle. ” Du Anran didn’t even enter the house and walked out again.
“Be careful yourself. ” Bai Ruyun couldn’t do anything about it and could only instruct Anran.
Sure enough, after walking for a short while, Du Anran found du Yuantong in a noisy bar. Du Yuantong was sitting in the bar. On the surface, he looked fine, but du Anran saw that there were several pairs of eyes staring at him.
“UNCLE! ” Du Anran called out. Just as she was about to approach him, she was stopped by a man with a cigarette in his mouth.
“whose girl is this? ” The man sneered and blew out a circle of smoke. “She’s quite pretty, but I don’t know how she feels… ”
“GET OUT OF THE WAY! ” Du Anran was not in a good mood today, but she did not act rashly since her uncle was in their hands.
“brother Wang, how do you feel? How do you know if you don’t try? ”Aa little boy came up to her and put on a fake smile with his colorful hair dyed.
“You know me better than that. ” Brother Wang laughed evilly and patted the little boy’s shoulder.
“brother Wang, brother Wang, I seem to have seen this woman somewhere before. ” Another person came up from behind to join in the fun.
“As long as she is beautiful, you will say that you have seen her before! ” Brother Wang laughed loudly, and the people behind him also laughed loudly.
Just as the person surnamed Wang wanted to get close to Du Anran, Du Anran took two steps back slightly, raised her leg, and gave a horizontal kick. The person surnamed Wang did not notice, and immediately squatted down and cried out, “AWOO! “.
When the people behind saw that Wang was being bullied, they immediately surrounded Du Anran. Du Anran was not afraid. She had practiced taekwondo since she was young. Although her skills were not good, it was more than enough to deal with a few hooligans.
Just as she was about to make a move, a little boy suddenly gave the leader a look and slowly approached him. “second brother, this woman looks a little like the boss’s woman. ”
“boss? Which boss? ” The leader shouted in dissatisfaction. Obviously, he did not react. He only recognized Wang as the boss here.
“CEO Xin… ” the little boy said timidly.
Although his voice was very soft, du Anran still heard it. Xin Zimo So he was still in contact with the underworld. She actually didn’t know about it all this time. No wonder he could easily settle many things. No wonder his company had always been safe and sound in city a. no wonder he was able to rise rapidly in City A.
How many things did he hide from her. It turned out that they had been in love for two years and she had never really known him.
The leader composed himself and looked at Du Anran a few more times. He probably felt that it was true and didn’t act rashly again. However, brother Wang got up from the ground and pointed at Du Anran. “WHAT BOSS’S WOMAN! It’s a woman that President Xin doesn’t want! It’s just a broken shoe, what’s there to be afraid of! ”
Du Anran’s heart twitched violently.
“Stop Fighting! ” Du Yuantong sat cowardly for a long time before he came to Du Anran’s side Shakily. He had drunk a lot and reeked of alcohol.
“YOU’RE NOT CONVINCED? ” Brother Wang stood out. “Old man, when are you going to pay us back the money you owe us? ”
“UNCLE? ” Du Anran looked at Du Yuantong in confusion. “Did you borrow money from them? ”
“Yes… ” Du Yuantong lowered his head. “No, no, they cheated me… ”
“One is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer. How can you say that you cheated me, old man? ” Brother Wang flicked the ashes from his cigarette and said indifferently.
“If Xin Zimo didn’t trick me into going to the casino, how could I lose ten million in one night and even sell my shares secretly? I deserve to die! ” Du Yuantong squatted down and held his head like a helpless child.
Du Anran suddenly understood what was going on with the huge amount of debt Xin Zimo was talking about and what was going on with the court summons. Everything was linked together as if it was a premeditated trap.
“The court will be in session in three days. The court will deal with it. I will pay back the money my uncle owes, ” Du Anran said calmly. After experiencing this storm, she suddenly understood that life was difficult and human relationships were cold and warm.
“Alright, let the old man go. ” Brother Wang waved his hand but stopped Du Anran.
Du Yuantong was almost thrown out of the bar by a few men, but they had the advantage in numbers, so they had no intention of letting du Anran go.
Someone seemed to understand brother Wang’s meaning, and tactfully retreated to the side. Sure enough, the man surnamed Wang came up with ill intentions. “Miss Du, it’s an honor to meet you, can we have a drink? ”
Du Anran rolled her eyes at the man surnamed Wang, turned around, and walked out.
“Don’t refuse the toast and take the punishment! ” The man surnamed Wang put out the cigarette butt in his hand. The few men knew what he meant, and immediately surrounded Du Anran.
On the other hand, a young boy was trembling with fear. “brother Wang, do you want to give CEO Xin a call? ”
“Do you have a brain? ! ” Wang rolled his eyes at him. “CEO Xin cares about face the most. If he knew, would I still be able to get my hands on this woman? ”
“But, but, although CEO Xin doesn’t want this woman anymore, but… it seems… It seems that it’s not our turn yet… ” the young boy stuttered.
“What do you know! ” Wang was clearly impatient. “Our brothers have helped him so much, but he can’t bear to part with a woman he doesn’t want? Besides, what’s wrong with following me? ”
Sure enough, the people around him kept quiet. Du Anran glanced at them and said with a smile, “Do you know that Xin Zimo is cruel and merciless? The one who helped him didn’t have a good ending, do you know that too? ”
“I don’t need to know this. I only know that the women that director Xin has played with must be very good. ” Wang narrowed his eyes.
“If you don’t move aside, don’t blame me for not being polite. ” Du Anran didn’t waste any more words. She kicked forward very quickly, and a few of those who didn’t have any martial arts skills couldn’t withstand it. They immediately squatted on the ground and cried out, “ouch, ouch, ouch. “.
Brother Wang saw that Du Anran seemed to be very powerful and knew that she would run away if this continued. He secretly winked at a man. The man understood what he meant. He quietly took out a syringe from his pocket and while Du Anran was not paying attention.. He quickly injected the anesthetic into Du Anran’s arm.
Not long after, Du Anran felt weak all over. At first, there were many shadows in front of her. Then, she was so lost that she could not even touch the road. She knew that it was not good. Just as she was about to escape from the Bar, she was knocked on the back of her head and fell heavily onto the ground… …
A cocktail party was being held in a luxurious villa. socialites from all walks of life wore thick make-up and light makeup, and each had their own unique characteristics. It was summer, and the gentle light poured down from the top, shining on their exquisite dresses. Some were dark purple like butterflies, some were fiery red like roses blooming, and some were pure white like snow in winter… … Melodious and pleasant piano music came from the corner, and for a moment, it was very lively …
Xiao Qingqing, who was wearing a bright red dress wrapped around her chest, finished a dance with a man and sat next to Xin Zimo. She was full of smiles, as if she was very happy.
“Zimo, will you dance with me? ” Xiao Qingqing’s eyes were full of hope. Throughout the entire reception, Xin Zimo avoided feeling unwell and only sat at the side quietly drinking. He politely refused all the ladies and young ladies who came to invite him.
“I’m a little tired. ” Xin Zimo shook his head as usual. “You should rest too. ”
Xiao Qingqing pursed her lips, but she still sat next to Xin Zimo and poured a glass of red wine. “CHEERS! ”
“Okay. ” Xin zimo smiled symbolically. “Are you happy? ”
“Yes. ” Xiao Qingqing smiled like a flower. This was the first time Xin Zimo had brought her to such a party. In the past, with Du Anran in the middle, it was difficult for her to get close to Xin Zimo, let alone attend a party or a dance.
“As long as you’re happy. ” Xin Zimo took a sip of red wine. At this moment, his phone suddenly vibrated.
Xin zimo glanced at the unfamiliar number and instinctively pressed the answer button.
“CEO Xin… Your Woman, Oh, no, Miss Du is in Platinum restaurant… ” An unfamiliar voice trembled …
Xin Zimo’s brows twitched. What did she have to do with him in the restaurant.
“brother Wang… brother Wang… has taken a liking to Miss Du… ” that person stuttered. “At this moment, Miss Du is… in… her room. She was drugged… brother Wang went to take a shower… ” at this point, everyone understood what was going on …
Xin Zimo’s face instantly darkened. “room number. ”
“Room 407. It’s just up the elevator. It’s very easy to recognize her. ” After saying that, he hurriedly hung up the phone. He had sneaked out secretly. Although he knew that President Xin did not like Du Anran anymore, he had played with women before. No matter how much he despised them, he might not throw them to others. He did not want to be implicated along with brother Wang.
