In the CEO's office.
Qiao Ziyan was staring blankly at a medical report in front of her.
It was the proof she had just obtained from a hospital examination.
She had still harbored a sliver of hope, hoping that after Lu Ping, that bastard, had drugged her last night, she had only slept and nothing else had happened... hoping that the red on the bed sheets was just her period arriving early...
But this examination report shattered her last illusion.
Damn Lu Ping!
Qiao Ziyan clenched her teeth, wishing she could kill that despicable man who took her virginity!
Click!
Just then, the office door was pushed open, and Lu Ping and Qiao Qingxia walked in.
Qiao Ziyan gave a bitter smile.
It seemed she really hated that bastard so much that she was hallucinating?
Seeing another version of herself coming in with that man?
It was indeed laughable.
But the next second.
"Sister!"
The voice of Qiao Qingxia made Qiao Ziyan's hallucination burst, turning into reality.
"Is that you? So you are Qiao Ziyan?"
Lu Ping looked at Qiao Ziyan in front of him, suddenly realizing.
So the woman he had spent the night with last night was actually his fiancée, Qiao Ziyan!
He had just come down from the mountain and had slept with his fiancée!
And Qiao Ziyan and Qiao Qingxia were sisters!
No wonder they looked almost identical; he should have realized it sooner!
"Qingxia, step outside. I need to talk to Lu Ping alone,"
Qiao Ziyan said.
"Okay."
Qiao Qingxia nodded, then gave Lu Ping a covert glance, reminding him not to forget their agreement.
Click!
Qiao Qingxia closed the door from the outside.
Qiao Ziyan immediately angrily threw the medical report in front of Lu Ping.
"Lu Ping you despicable scum, you still have the nerve to come see me!"
"But you've come at just the right time, I just went for an examination for evidence, and if I call the police and accuse you of rape, you'll just wait to go to jail!"
Lu Ping picked it up and looked.
"Area inspected: fresh tear in hymen..."
"Fluid sample has been extracted and preserved..."
"This medical report carries legal authority..."
As Lu Ping examined the report, he frowned and said, "Last night was clearly initiated by you, and now you accuse me of rape? Are you joking?"
"I initiated it? You shameful wretch! You clearly drugged me!" Qiao Ziyan yelled.
"You were drugged last night?"
Lu Ping recalled, no wonder last night, Qiao Ziyan seemed unusually... proactive.
Moreover, this morning, Qiao Ziyan called him by his last name Lu, yet Qiao Qingxia hadn't mentioned his name to Qiao Ziyan, but she directly called him Lu Ping.
Could it be that the guy with the same name and surname as him had drugged Qiao Ziyan last night, left her in a hotel, and then went to catch Qiao Qingxia on the bridge, only to fall into the river?
Then he inexplicably replaced that guy, spent the night with Qiao Ziyan, only to be encountered by Qiao Qingxia again...
Lu Ping furrowed his brow.
This matter, how come it sounds so bizarre?
A person with the same name and surname as him, and who also looked just like him?
How could there possibly be such a coincidence in this world?
However, Lu Ping also felt somewhat fortunate.
It was lucky he had come down from the mountain and into the city yesterday... Otherwise, wouldn't his fiancée and sister-in-law have fallen prey to that namesake?
"Let me explain to you, I am not the Lu Ping you're talking about. I just look a lot like him. My name is also Lu Ping, and my real identity is your fiancé..."
"Of course, marriage is a matter of mutual consent, so, if you are willing, I will fulfill our engagement. If you are not willing, I will break off the engagement with you..."
Lu Ping explained earnestly.
"What do you mean by breaking off the engagement? I never agreed to it in the first place. It was only my parents who talked to you privately..."
Qiao Ziyan didn't believe Lu Ping at all and interrupted him angrily.
It turned out that the previous Lu Ping who had pursued Qiao Ziyan had the full support of her parents. They had even gone to great lengths to facilitate this, reaching some private agreements with that previous Lu Ping.
"Okay, maybe you city folks don't use that term, so let me put it another way. If you are not willing, I will break up with you, sever all ties, and we will never deal with each other again."
Lu Ping added.
"Really?" Qiao Ziyan's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Really," Lu Ping said gravely.
"Good, I'm not willing! Let's sever all ties right now!" Qiao Ziyan declared without hesitation.
"Then you must return the token to me," Lu Ping demanded, staring intently at Qiao Ziyan's chest.
By now, Lu Ping was sure that the half-piece of Jade Pendant at Qiao Ziyan's chest was the token. No wonder he felt a familiar force emanating from it.
However, the red string on the half Jade Pendant was long, causing the pendant to hang down into the deep valley of her chest…
Lu Ping strained his eyes and leaned in closer to get a better look.
But to Qiao Ziyan, his actions seemed utterly lecherous. She stepped back in disgust and tightened her collar.
"You can take back whatever you want, but first, you must go to my house and tell my parents clearly that you will no longer pester me."
Qiao Ziyan still thought that the so-called token was something Lu Ping had given to her parents.
Then, Qiao Ziyan left the office with Lu Ping and called Qiao Qingxia. The three of them went downstairs, got into the car, and drove back to the Qiao Family's home.
The security chief at the gate promptly stood at attention, saluting and casting an admiring and respectful glance at Lu Ping.
He had never seen a man who could get into a car with both the elder miss and the second miss of the Qiao Family at the same time!
...
Twenty minutes later, at the Qiao Family villa.
"Young Master Lu, what brings you here? Please come in, please come in. Xiuping, quickly make some signature dishes. Young Master Lu will have lunch at our home!"
Upon seeing Lu Ping, Qiao's father was overjoyed.
Jiang Xiuping was also thrilled and hurriedly welcomed them warmly.
"Dad, Mom, Lu Ping came today to let you know that starting today, he and I will sever all ties, and he will no longer pester me," Qiao Ziyan quickly said.
"Ziyan, don't talk nonsense!"
Qiao's father's face changed, and he immediately scolded.
"Yes, Ziyan, what are you talking about? Everyone in Jiang City knows that Young Master Lu is sincerely pursuing you, and he has even publicly declared that he will marry no one but you!"
Jiang Xiuping added busily.
"Young Master Lu, am I right?"
The couple said, looking hopefully at Lu Ping.
In fact, there were reasons why Qiao's father and Jiang Xiuping went to great lengths to match Lu Ping with Qiao Ziyan.
The Qiao Family's corporation was currently in trouble. Without external help, it would soon go bankrupt.
The strength of the Lu Family far surpassed that of the Qiao Family.
If Lu Ping married Qiao Ziyan, the Qiao Family's corporation could revive with the help of the Lu Family's resources!
Just last week, the prodigal Lu Ping had privately promised Qiao's parents that if he succeeded in pursuing Qiao Ziyan, he could solve a financial issue amounting to eighty million for the Qiao Family!
But the next second, Lu Ping said, "Uncle and Aunt, Ziyan isn't entirely wrong. If Ziyan is unwilling, I can sever all ties with her, and we will never contact each other again..."
"What? What?"
Qiao's parents' faces instantly turned pale.
