Translator: AtlasStudios Editor: AtlasStudios

Yun Bixue remained outside the building for a couple hours before leaving to wait at the carpark. When it was time to get to work, Su Lenghan turned up at the carpark as expected.

The instant Su Lenghan saw Yun Bixue, his beautiful brows frowned and impatience permeated from his handsome face. Together with his tall and noble figure, it was a sight to behold. “Bixue, must you continue to pester me?”

“Su Lenghan, I have come to you for the last time, and I only have one favor to ask.”

Yun Bixue advanced slowly toward Su Lenghan; her heart could not help but wrench. She felt that she was stepping on her dignity each step of the way, but the burden she carried made it impossible for her to retreat.

Yun Bixue stood in front of Su Lenghan. Looking at his exquisite and beautiful face, she took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and lowered her head slightly. In a soft and gentle voice, she said, “Lenghan, if I told you that only if we were to marry the Yun family would survive this crisis, would you marry me?”

Su Lenghan was shocked. His gentle and refined eyes grew slightly wider and stared intently at Yun Bixue.

It was his first time seeing her being so sweet and gentle. She looked dazzling with the dim light of the carpark cast on her.

He could not keep his heart from shaking at the tenderness she displayed when she lowered her head. At such a close distance, he could even smell the unique fragrance of Yun Bixue’s body.

For a moment he was caught in a trance. His hand extended slightly, wanting to embrace her delicate figure.

Suddenly, a mobile ringtone broke the peaceful atmosphere, and Su Lenghan recovered from his trance. He looked at the name displayed on the phone, and his brows narrowed. “Hello.”

“Lenghan, are you still at the carpark? Why haven’t you come out yet? It will be rush hour soon. My father just told me that my mother has finished preparing the dishes.”

“Alright, give me a second, I’ll be there right away.” Su Lenghan’s voice was filled with gentleness, and his tone became more relaxed.

Hanging up, Su Lenghan looked at Yun Bixue and sighed softly, “Bixue, I’m the one to blame here. As you know, I am going to marry Xinyan soon, and nothing can be changed.”

Yu Bixue overheard the conversation, and her face grew pale. “Su Lenghan, don’t tell me that you’ve forgotten all the times we’ve spent together. Could it be that you’ve never loved me before?”

Su Lenghan turned away and paused. With his back to Yun Bixue, he said, “Bixue, you know this already. That was just a love affair, but isn’t it only normal for people like us? I am very sorry. Please don’t look for me again. Xinyan will be upset if you do.”

Yun Bixue stared blankly as Su Lenghan drove away, and felt her entire body become ice cold.

An unknown amount of time passed, and her body became very numb. She took her phone out and called every contact she had, but discovered that no one dared to have any relationship with her, much less talk about marriage.

Finally, a soulless Yun Bixue arrived at the Luxury Emperor’s bar. She stood at the bar table, listening to the messy music behind her, and told the bartender, “I’ll have an Unparalleled Belle!”

The bartender was stupefied for a while, then looked at Yun Bixue, a bit unsure of what he just heard. The Unparalleled Belle’s alcohol content was the highest in the world, and it was very expensive.

Yun Bixue saw the doubt in the bartender’s eyes and felt a coldness in her heart. She took out a wad of cash from her bag. “Can you make the drink now?”

The bartender looked at the cash. It was actually not enough. Regardless, he made Yun Bixue’s drink expressionlessly.

Yun Bixue downed the drink and soon found herself extremely groggy. She noticed that the bartender didn’t make any more for her and snarled, “What’s the problem? Are you scared that I don’t have enough money? Here, take my card, and continue to make me more Unparalleled Belle.”

Yun Bixue’s vision was slightly blurred, and she didn’t notice that the card she held was the gold name card.
