Inside a vast office in YH Group Main Branch Office.
The neon lights coming from the buildings and city that looked like tiny chess pieces from the top floor of the skyscraper building of the main office of YH Group became a silver light that pierced through the darkness.
The office was very large, but it seemed that not many people had come to this room as the floor still looked as new as though it was just made yesterday and the silver light coming from the city was reflected in it.
Standing inside this spacious office was a tall man with broad shoulders, gorgeously dressed in a sophisticated and high-end three-piece suit which was personally customized by a world renowned fashion designer. The clothes the man wore was the one and only piece in the entire world.
Song Yu Han looked at the city in front of him, or more precisely, at the 17th floor building that stood just a few buildings across YH Group's main branch office. It was his wife's company, Chestnut.
At this time in the evening, the lights that were still on were not that many since the employees should be leaving or had already gone home. But Song Yu Han still looked at it for a long time as if he could see Ran Xueyi inside her office.
Unfortunately, the woman he wished was inside that building was not even in the same city as him and he could only stare at the dark window with familiarity and longing.
As he was waiting for time to pass before he could go and prepare to sleep in the bedroom connected to his own office, the black phone that was on top of the smooth surface of his wide office desk received a call.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSurprisingly, it was from Ran Xueyi who had to return to Silver City that afternoon to shoot the rest of her scenes.
She asked him whether he had anything on President Tzongshi and asked if he could release it.
Song Yu Han was not surprised that she knew that he really had something on President Tzongshi. In the business world, if you don't have a single dirty thing against someone, you would become a prey that people could chew on by big predators.
As a man who had built his own business empire, Song Yu Han naturally had more than what other people had in their hands and had less of things that people could use against it, turning him into an indestructible and fearsome man that no one could dare offend without preparations.
And at this moment, no one has had any preparations or plans prepared to bring him down from his throne.
A rare indulgence appeared in his eyes as soon as he heard Ran Xueyi's voice and told her that he had something on President Tzongshi.
"I'll send it to you now."
After he said that, he really did what he told her and sent a file containing the past actions that President Tzongshi has done, including the fact that he had been abusing his wife and psychologically abusing his children who were already old and was also doing some terrible and horrible things to other people just like their father.
Afterwards, Song Yu Han continued to speak to her, however, who knew that the moment he spoke, the disconnected tone answered him.
Song Yu Han didn't have the time to sulk like an abandoned puppy as he directly called Wu Qi and asked him about what Ran Xueyi has been doing.
That was when he found out that Ran Xueyi was in fact not in Silver City, but in Imperial Capital.
He lowered his gaze and looked outside the floor to ceiling window again where the lights in the city flickered in various colors.
The curve of his lips deepend and he said: "Mm, interesting."
–What are you planning to do now?
Since Ran Xueyi is playing a game right now, naturally, Song Yu Han wanted to watch it with his own eyes.
And so, the big golden dragon left his throne to watch his kitten catch her prey.
...
Gu Jiao never experienced being drowned. She was a very good swimmer in their class back in high school and was confident with the lung volume she possessed and could go on swimming underwater for three minutes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, at this moment, she felt that her whole body was being compressed and the air in her lungs wasn't enough at all!
Gurgling sounds could be heard as Gu Jiao's head was forced to dunk into the bathtub water by Ran Xueyi. She waited until 30 seconds had passed before fishing out the head that had been forcefully put into the water and was very satisfied when she heard Gu Jiao coughing and breathing erratically.
Once, twice, thrice.
Gu Jiao felt lightheaded and was already tired and couldn't resist any longer. She didn't care anymore if she drowned completely, just end this cycle!
Of course, Ran Xueyi had no plans to drown her truly. She doesn't have any plans to be a murderer.
It was just that the words written in black against the white paper that told her about the previous endeavors of Gu Jiao in the past years disgusted and angered Ran Xueyi tremendously that she somehow couldn't stop herself from showing a bit of the dark side that she suppressed very silently in her heart.
Zhilan was not the only victim that Gu Jiao victimized and traumatized. There were several others who were targeted by her without any logical reasons. These people were either beaten up, kidnapped, and blackmailed. However, there were some others who tried to fight back against Gu Jiao's oppression.
But these people got an even more severe punishment.
In the end, the humiliation and harassment that were done to these people had sent them to lose hope and trust on other humans and most tragically, they couldn't help but disappear eternally to escape from Gu Jiao's grasp.
Ran Xueyi could never forgive Gu Jiao and the actions she had done in the past. She could have been one of those people if she hadn't done something about it, but what about those other people who could no longer defend themselves because they had to be buried deep under the ground and watched on by their crying and tormented loved ones?
"Do you know how lucky you are that I don't do murder?" Ran Xueyi's voice was extremely cold, seemingly like a knife that could slice a person's neck.
