Pan Ge was so angry her head buzzed.
Normally, it should be the girl threatening the boy with such matters. Sothing like, "If you dare to treat badly, I'll tell my mom and dad how you bullied !" If her father was the type who doted excessively on his daughter, Han Lie would be toast.
But with Han Lie, everything was completely reversed.
Pan Ge carefully weighed the consequences of the truth being exposed and assessed who would suffer more damage. Instantly, her anger deflated.
She was indeed the little princess of her family, but the problem was... Han Lie's current standing in the family was even higher than hers!
Really, no exaggeration.
Although she didn't know what her father, Panzi, and that scoundrel Han Lie were up to, lately, every ti she ca ho, she could hear Panzi praising Han Lie. His enthusiasm was almost as if Han Lie were his own son.
And most critically, her mother, Zhao Anni—or as Pan Ge ntally dubbed her, Empress Dowager Zhao—also placed great importance on her relationship with Han Lie. She had hinted several tis that Pan Ge could "be more proactive."
Seriously, Mom? I'm down to my last line of defense, and you still want to be more proactive?!
Pan Ge was very clever. She quickly realized that the jerk must have pulled off sothing significant; otherwise, her parents wouldn't be so enthusiastic.
But that jerk's recent performance had been utterly disappointing.
How long has it been since you spent ti with or tried to make happy?
What, after just three or four tis, you're already tired of ? Am I not attractive enough anymore?!
Has that big leech found soone new to cling to?
Pan Ge, the Black-hearted White Lotus, was furious. Coincidentally, Xi Luting also harbored resentnt. Pan Ge used a few little tricks to stoke Xi Luting's anger, and they decided to teach that scoundrel a lesson.
Unfortunately, just when they were about to succeed, the scoundrel slipped away again...
Not only did their plan fail, but it even backfired on her.
AAAAARGH, SO INFURIATING!
Pan Ge bit her lip resentfully, offering no resistance as Han Lie dragged her to a side corridor and then up the stairs to the second-floor equipnt room.
"I don't believe you'd dare tell my mom about *that*!"
Now that they were alone in the room, Pan Ge regained her composure and tried to see if the scoundrel was bluffing.
"Heh heh!"
Han Lie pressed her against the door, tilted her chin up, and asked with a wicked smile, "Really? Are you sure? How about I call your mom right now and tell her a few little secrets?"
"You!"
Pan Ge's eyes widened in anger. She grabbed Han Lie's hand, intending to bite it, but he deftly caught her chin.
"Anyway, your father and I are completely tied together now. Before this business deal is done, with or without you, we're practically family."
Pan Ge's eyes widened further, her pupils dilating sharply.
That wasn't all. The rogue leaned in even closer.
"You've been very naughty lately. Tell , how should I punish you?"
Goosebumps erupted all over Pan Ge's skin. Forgetting to resist, she urgently asked, "What exactly are you and my dad cooking up?"
This was the crux of her submission.
If I can figure this out, maybe I can regain so standing in the family and find a chance to strike back later.
Otherwise...
I'll definitely have no recourse later. I'll just be waiting to be bullied relentlessly!
But Han Lie wasn't stupid. Why would he reveal his hand for no reason?
"Want to know? Alright. But I'm not in a great mood right now. Make happy, and I'll tell you."
Pan Ge imdiately perked up her ears, wary. "How do you want to make you happy?"
Han Lie gave a wicked smirk.
"If you cry a little for , I'll be happy..."
"What?!"
Damn beast!
Pan Ge asked through clenched teeth, seething, "How am I supposed to go to the gala like this?"
Her complaint amused Han Lie. "Why else do you think I brought you out here alone? Be good. I'll take you ho afterward, and you can... reflect on it there."
Damn it, I fell for that dog's trick!
The Black-hearted White Lotus finally understood. She was so angry she almost exploded.
Ugh! I want to explode, but I don't dare go too far...
If I really piss that jerk off and he decides to go for another round, I can't guarantee I'll be able to walk out of campus normally.
Bastard!
All that cunning of yours is just for ssing with , isn't it?! You just wait, this isn't over between us!
Pan Ge cursed him inwardly, but on the surface, she appeared incredibly sweet and compliant.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, dear. I want to go ho now. Would you drive yourself? Mua!"
She flashed a sweet smile, then tenderly kissed Han Lie on the cheek, her expression full of affection.
Ugh!
After acting so coquettishly, Pan Ge started to despise herself...
You're really sothing, aren't you, Pan Ge!
Han Lie, however, found it highly amusing. Her insincerity was indescribably adorable; teasing her was just too much fun!
"Let's go. I'll take you ho!"
Han Lie eagerly put his arm around her and led her out through the university's main gate. He drove her ho himself.
Panzi was, of course, not ho. Zhao Anni seed to be out playing cards and wasn't back either.
So...
Pan Ge felt she would need a couple of days to recover.
The New Year's Gala?
It's already past 3:00 p.m., only a few hours left. Not even soone made of iron could recover in ti!
"Dear, please drive carefully..."
Pan Ge, fighting her exhaustion, managed to wave goodbye; her farewell was a hundred percent sincere.
When she finally woke up from her daze, it was almost 8:00 p.m.
I'm so mad!
She hurriedly opened her phone and furiously typed out a ssage.
Just as she sent the ssage, Zhao Anni suddenly knocked on the door and walked into the bedroom.
"Sweetie, you need to take better care of yourself..."
Zhao Anni had returned early and had already checked on her twice. Seeing Pan Ge still asleep, she hadn't woken her. However, a faint floral scent lingered in the air.
