Chapter 16 - Chapter 16_1

"Hehehe! You don't need to worry about who we are, soon, we'll be your men!"

"You two, go pin her down for me!!"

Rong Shengsheng's heart suddenly rose to her throat, and she immediately realized that Rong Wanwan, who had agreed to give her money on the surface, was actually preparing to be ruthless to her!!

Five years ago, she had suffered once, but this time she was ready!!

She immediately took a knife out of her pocket and yelled at the three men, "Don't come any closer! Otherwise, don't blame me for not being polite!"

Rong Shengsheng had a knife in her hand, which scared the three men, and they did not dare to take a step closer, but they did not give up either. After all, in their eyes, Rong Shengsheng was just a weak woman, no match for them!!

The three men stared greedily at the knife in Rong Shengsheng's hand, ready to strike at an opportune moment.

Rong Shengsheng cautiously moved toward the door, the atmosphere extremely tense the whole way, with a thick scent of gunpowder in the air, ready to explode at any moment.

She held her breath, her nerves taut, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Just as she was about to reach the door, one of the men pounced like lightning to snatch the knife from her hand.

She was not strong enough, and couldn't win against the man, who also knocked her to the ground.

The blond thug flaunted the knife and mocked, "You stinkin' bitch! You think we're scared of you because you have a knife??"

"You really underestimate us too much! I'll show you just how fearsome I can be in a moment!"

Rong Shengsheng clutched her aching abdomen and desperately moved toward the door, only to feel her feet grabbed, and she was dragged back inside.

"Help! Is there anyone to save me!"

The three men began to take off her pants, and no matter how much she struggled, it was futile, like a fish on a chopping board, butchered at will.

That sense of despair was just like that night five years ago...

Worse than five years ago, this time there were three men...

Rong Wanwan was really too cruel!!

She bit her lower lip hard and turned her head away.

"Bang bang bang—"

With the sound, all three blond thugs lay on the ground.

Rong Shengsheng's heart tightened, someone had come to save her??

She lifted her head and instantly locked eyes with the man.

The man had a pair of captivating and beautiful peach blossom eyes, deep and handsome features, sensual thin lips, and wore a black shirt that covered his solid muscles, as if they were ready to burst out at any moment.

Rong Shengsheng blinked, thinking she was hallucinating. Was it Li Hanxian??

Li Hanxian narrowed his cold eyes and glanced at the thugs on the ground, "Who allowed you to touch my woman?"

"Big brother, please spare us, we won't dare do it again!!"

"You think there will be a next time?"

Li Hanxian gnashed his teeth and stepped hard on the head of one of the men, appearing as if he wanted to flatten the man's skull.

"Aaaaah!"

Pig-like screams echoed through the heavens and the earth.

Seeing this, the other two quickly knelt on the ground begging for mercy.

Even so, Li Hanxian did not show the slightest bit of mercy. He turned his head and ordered Zhou Kuan, "Take them away and chop off all their hands!!"

Hearing this sentence, Rong Shengsheng took in a breath of cold air, fearfully swallowing a spit, President Li, as terrifying as the rumors said, truly lived up to his name.

No wonder he always looked at her unfavorably, probably very few people could catch his eye!!

She had kicked his vital part and given him a slap; if he caught her, her fate would probably be the same as those blond thugs, if not worse!!

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shiver.

Suddenly, the man's imposingly handsome face came close, and he said in a low voice, "You're a big star now, at least. Next time you go out, remember to bring some bodyguards."

Rong Shengsheng dumbfoundedly lifted her head, her eyes filled with tremendous pain.

Oh no!!

Li Hanxian must have mistaken her for Rong Wanwan!!

This won't do.....

She must leave quickly!!

"Hmm? Why aren't you speaking?" Li Hanxian lifted Rong Shengsheng's delicate jaw, his eyes meeting her clear, bright ones. His heart suddenly trembled.

He hadn't felt this kind of palpitation in many years.

His hot breath sprayed on Rong Shengsheng's face, and her heartbeat sped up violently, nodding in a flustered manner, "I understand..."

After speaking, she turned around to leave, but the man grabbed her arm and pulled her back.

She was pressed tightly against Li Hanxian's strong chest. She struggled a few times, but couldn't break free from his grip, "President Li...what are you doing??"

"President Li? You didn't use to call me that, why the sudden change?"

Rong Shengsheng immediately realized she had said something wrong, "I...what should I call you?"

"What do you think?"

She rolled her eyes. Rong Wanwan was engaged to Li Hanxian. At a time like this, she should...

"Husband?"

Hearing this title, Li Hanxian's heart fluttered, and his eyes and brows couldn't hide his joy. Strangely enough, whenever he was with Rong Wanwan before, he would get annoyed just hearing her speak.

Now, hearing Rong Wanwan call him husband, he felt very happy.

So, he held Rong Shengsheng's slender waist, saying, "Let me take you to buy a few handbags, consider it a compensation."

"Buy handbags?"

Rong Shengsheng was completely petrified and hurriedly shook her head to refuse, "No, no, I...I don't want to buy handbags."

"Then I'll buy you some jewelry."

Anyway, Li Hanxian just wanted to spend money on the woman before him, wanted to stay with her.

He didn't understand why.

Rong Shengsheng gave a wry smile, "I don't need it."

She really didn't want to spend Li Hanxian's money!!

Li Hanxian was only spending money on her because he mistook her for Long Wanwan.

Once he finds out that she's not Rong Wanwan, but Rong Shengsheng...he'll surely flay her alive!

"You must take what I give you!"

Li Hanxian's tone allowed no refusal, and he authoritatively pulled Rong Shengsheng's arm as he started walking.

In the luxurious jewelry store, all sorts of dazzling jewelry captivated the eyes.

The shop manager enthusiastically promoted the latest jewelry and diamonds, talking until his mouth went dry, but Rong Shengsheng was still unmoved.

This left the manager somewhat perplexed and frustrated. The previous times when Rong Wanwan came to the store, she would buy anything he recommended, spending very generously.

Why is she... reacting so coldly today??

Still maintaining a polite smile, the manager asked, "Miss Rong, which one would you like??"

Rong Shengsheng was very reserved, glancing at the prices of the jewelry. Each piece was over seven figures, something far beyond what someone like her could afford.

She inhaled sharply, firmly refusing, "I don't want any, thank you."

The manager was stunned. Rong Wanwan didn't want a single piece??

That's rare indeed!

Li Hanxian sat in the sofa, watching the scene indifferently. Seeing Rong Wanwan refusing to buy jewelry, a flicker of shock and surprise crossed his eyes.

This was nothing like her usual style.

Why the sudden change of heart?
