Xu Xiangbei was stunned, admiring the exquisite body sculpted like ice, the voluptuous and graceful curves that made one’s heart skip a beat.
He reached out with trembling hands, but did not linger on that enticing body; instead, he pulled over a soft silk blanket and gently covered her.
The red makeup and candle shadows cherished themselves; who in the world could bear to harm the flowers?
When Sun Jiajia opened her eyes, she was surprised to find that Xu Xiangbei had already left, with only the flickering candle shadows remaining.
She felt both lucky and sad, sorrow rising from her heart, she curled up and broke into tears, crying like a child who had lost a toy.
Xu Xiangbei dialed Black Rose’s number and sighed softly: "Let that kid Chen Yonghao go."
Black Rose appeared very surprised: "Isn’t our Dr. Xu known for holding grudges? That kid was so arrogant before you, and you let him off so easily?"
Xu Xiangbei smiled bitterly: "Who can bla him for having such a good fiancée, crying her eyes out to plead with ; I just can’t stand seeing won cry."
Black Rose teased: "Dr. Xu is really a flower-loving and jade-caring person, a woman only needs to shed a few tears and you’ve gone soft?"
Detecting the underlying ssage, Xu Xiangbei chuckled: "I’m still a virgin, my first night would certainly be reserved for you, it definitely won’t be soft."
"Pfft, you smooth talker. Alright, I can let him go, but I won’t owe you a favor."
Xu Xiangbei took a puff of his cigarette, thinking all these won were cunning: "That’s not fair, at least you owe a kiss."
Black Rose’s silvery laugh ca from the phone: "Alright, it’s a deal; at most I owe you a kiss."
Xu Xiangbei smiled bitterly: "You’re really tricky, a night of spring festivities turned into a single kiss, I’ve lost big ti."
"You’re the one who was taken by the fiancée’s beauty and had a tender heart; winning the heart of a beauty is no loss for you."
Xu Xiangbei looked disdainful: "Winning her heart? I didn’t get anything, it was entirely an act of help."
"So it’s settled, Dr. Xu. Goodbye, and don’t regret it."
Xu Xiangbei spoke decisively: "I won’t regret it."
Chen Yonghao’s case took a turn; just a day before the trial, the smoky-eye girl changed her testimony, saying she might have been too drunk and hallucinated, unable to confirm Chen Yonghao had any ill intentions.
With the new evidence, Chen Yonghao was finally released, having not shaved or washed for days, with his mustache sprawling like ssy straw across his face.
Although the smoky-eye girl retracted her accusation, photos of Section Chief Chen hugging an underage girl had already gone viral online.
He no longer had the face to return to work at the health bureau, feeling as if wherever he went, people would point and whisper behind his back, his emotions on the brink of collapse.
Sun Jiajia drove to pick up Chen Yonghao to go ho, had a bath at an outside bathhouse, changed into newly bought clothes, and even crossed a fire basin upon returning ho.
Seeing Chen Yonghao return unscathed, Sun Jiajia was very relieved: "Ahao, you’re back, that’s great. I’ve been worried sick these days, fearing you’d really be sentenced."
Chen Yonghao sat with a sullen face, saying nothing, and ignored Sun Jiajia, staring blankly as he smoked one cigarette after another, soon filling the ashtray with butts.
When leaving the detention center, Chen Yonghao heard rumors that it wasn’t his father’s connections that got him released, but rather Xu Xiangbei’s influence in getting the girl to change her testimony.
Chen Yonghao’s expression was as if he was about to devour soone, glaring angrily at Sun Jiajia: "I heard you begged Xu Xiangbei to let go?"
Sun Jiajia looked tense, not expecting Chen Yonghao to get the news so quickly: "I just treated him to a al."
Chen Yonghao sneered disdainfully: "Where did you have this al? And who else was there?"
Sun Jiajia clutched her skirt, biting her lips and admitted: "It was at our ho, just the two of us."
The muscles on Chen Yonghao’s face twitched, his body trembled, he was eerily calm: "You invited him ho for dinner? Just the two of you?"
Sun Jiajia appeared resolute, raising her head and standing firm, feeling she did the right thing, with no fear of societal judgent, righteously saying: "Yes, this way there’s no interference from others, making it better to discuss matters."
Smack, Chen Yonghao suddenly slapped Sun Jiajia across the face like a fierce wolf, roaring: "How dare you make it sound so righteous, don’t you have any sha, did you sleep with him?"
Sun Jiajia’s head buzzed from the slap, taking a while to calm down, blood trickling from the corners of her mouth.
In order to ask Xu Xiangbei to save Chen Yonghao, she was willing to sacrifice her chastity, but was repaid with scorn and accusations.
She struggled to hold back her tears, forcing out words from her mouth: "We didn’t do anything."
But in Chen Yonghao’s eyes, her honesty was seen as blatant deceit.
Chen Yonghao picked up an ashtray and smashed it hard against Sun Jiajia’s forehead, and blood imdiately splattered on her blue camisole, staining her pale face red.
"Bitch, you did nothing and he’s so kind-hearted to help ? You are truly a shaless and promiscuous woman."
Sun Jiajia wiped the blood from her forehead, and surprisingly felt no pain, not knowing whether she was numb from it or whether the ache in her heart was a hundredfold worse than her physical pain.
She coldly said: "What did you call ?"
"A shaless and promiscuous woman."
Chen Yonghao roared, each word and phrase stabbing bloodily into Sun Jiajia’s heart like a knife.
Xu Xiangbei’s words rang in Sun Jiajia’s ears, he’s not worth your sacrifices.
The greatest sorrow in the world is no greater than a dead heart.
Sun Jiajia trembled as she stood up, a wave of dizziness almost causing her to faint, with blood streaming down her face, staining her clothes and making a shocking sight.
She chanically walked into the bedroom, removing the diamond ring she always wore on her finger, placing it on the bedside table.
She longingly looked at the photo on the nightstand, which she considered her most beautiful, smiling like a fairy.
With only her usual small handbag in hand, she leaned against the wall and staggered out of the house, with the sound of Chen Yonghao’s door slamming and angry yells following: "Get out, you shaless whore, as far away as possible."
Ding Keke was off that day, eating an apple, reading a book when she received a call from Sun Jiajia, with an extrely weak voice: "Keke, save ."
Noticing sothing was wrong with Sun Jiajia’s voice, Ding Keke anxiously asked: "Where are you? What happened?"
"Save , I’m just downstairs of my house, I was thrown out by Chen Yonghao, I feel like I’m going to die."
Ding Keke was so scared she dropped both the book and the apple on the floor, truly fearing Sun Jiajia might do sothing rash.
She quickly advised: "Jia Jia, you need to think things through, you’re in the pri of your life with many beautiful things awaiting you. Chen Yonghao kicking you out is his loss. Just wait there, don’t wander off, I’m coming to you."
