[Even though I knew that I would be left alone in the end, I was like a moth drawn to the flame because I craved your tenderness. -XunMi]

—————

After drinking one bowl, XunMi felt her empty stomach sound in satisfaction.

"ZiXi ge, have you eaten yet?" She yawned, making tears form around her eyes. After eating was the food coma, XunMi was experiencing a pig's lazy life for the first time.

Tan ZiXi wiped the tears from her eyes, helped her lie down and arranged her blankets, coaxing her back to sleep. "I'll eat when you go back to sleep. Be good, sleep." He knew that these two months Mi'er hasn't been sleeping well due to her stress. After being tormented by him today, she would naturally feel tired.

"Hurry and go eat." XunMi's eyelids fell heavily as she quickly slipped into her dreams.

After making sure his Mi'er was asleep, he adjusted the heater in the bedroom before taking the tray back out with him. He had originally wanted to rest with Mi'er, but there were always people looking for trouble popping out left and right. After instructing the butler and servants to take care of Mi'er, Tan ZiXi left in his car.

In a dark and broken-down factory, a woman in white laid on the dusty ground.

"Wake her up." Tan ZiXi's voice was cold as he disgustedly looked down at the unconscious person.

Kevin cheerfully accepted the mission. He took the water that the bodyguard brought over and unsympathetically drenched the woman on the ground.

"Hm..." a slight voice mumbled, a sign that she was about to wake up.

Qin HuaiSe blinked her eyes, her head pounding in pain. She still remembered yesterday she was walking in a small alley when she felt a sudden pain on her neck just before she lost consciousness.

When she realized her current situation, she promptly began panicking. Where was this? Struggling to climb up, her loosely scattered hair and her filthy clothes clinging onto her skin made her look unrecognizable.

"ZiXi ge?" Raising her head, Qin HuaiSe couldn't help but excitedly call out when she saw the male idol that she had been thinking about. That look of adoration and longing disgusted everyone around her, especially Tan ZiXi, the receiver of her gaze. He just couldn't understand, had he used an alien language when speaking before? This shameless woman still didn't understand all his previous words. This caused his mood to decrease in an instant. He immediately kicked Qin HuaiSe back onto the ground, making her head smack onto the ground with a bang.

"Make sure to wash out her mouth. As the saying goes 'no good words can come out of a mouth of a dog'."

A bodyguard immediately stepped forward, slapping Qin HuaiSe across the face a few times. Her swollen cheek with blood bleeding from the corner of her lips matched with the strings of sweaty hair glued to her face made for a disgusting sight.

"Don't you enjoy seducing men? I'll help you. Kevin, send her to a gambling den. Pass on a message to them: make sure to take good care of her so that she won't die too easily." Tan ZiXi's malice transmitted directly into Qin HuaiSe's ears.

He couldn't believe that this girl could be so malicious, daring to scheme against his Mi'er.

If not for his sudden decision today to take Mi'er to register their marriage, then Qin HuaiSe might have gotten what she wanted. She dared to hire people with the plan of creating a wanton scene to destroy Mi'er's reputation. Doesn't she know that Tan ZiXi wasn't dead yet? Without another glance, he turned to leave.

He still needed to go home to check if Mi'er has been kicking her blankets while sleeping. The sound of his leather shoes hitting the cement echoed, just like a funeral bell striking Qin HuaiSe's heart.
