Chapter 281: Quite Unruly

Over the years, Tang Guofeng's reputation and wealth have grown significantly in the country. Wherever he goes, a group of bodyguards follows him, and leaders from all sectors vie for his favor.If he had made an appointment to come here for a medical checkup, it would be expected that a department head or even the hospital director would personally accompany him. If not, what was he doing here?As Tang Guofeng approached me, he gestured for the others to stay behind, smiling as he said, "You look well, have you been doing good lately?"His words were as warm as those of an elder, but there was a slyness in his eyes that was hard to detect."Why are you looking at me like that?" Tang Guofeng chuckled, the kind of laugh that only the wealthy could afford, as if he were watching a pet being toyed with. "I did help you, after all. I saved your life."This was the point I couldn't figure out: what exactly did Tang Guofeng want? He had imprisoned and tormented me under the guise of hel

Chapter 282: A Man's Honor Is Greater Than the Heavens

Due to the change in his job, Stan Wallace has been traveling frequently lately, and nine out of ten times, he's accompanied by Tang Li. One day, I suddenly received a Whatsapp message from Tang Xiaohui. She sent me a screenshot from a gossip app, which showed a photo of Stan Wallace and Tang Li attending a banquet together. The comments below were what Tang Xiaohui referred to as "CP fans."Since I hadn't left my previous job, I didn't want people to pry into my personal life through my words and actions. So, I turned off the screen, pretending I hadn't seen it. However, my colleagues were more enthusiastic, and many were fond of gossip, or perhaps just particularly interested in Stan Wallace.No sooner had I put down my phone than someone poked my shoulder, "Isn't that your boyfriend?"She pointed at the image on her phone, trying to hide her excitement, but her expression was somewhat odd. Following her finger, I saw the same banquet photos on her phone, with the two of them stil

Chapter 283: Alive

Trista Fowler had long since stopped his wild ways. Stan Wallace had mentioned these friends in passing during a casual chat, saying that ever since his breakup with Judy Richardson, he hadn't been with anyone else. The days of changing bed partners every week were long gone.As Stan Wallace put it, "He spends all his free time annoying me."Over the years, Trista Fowler had flourished in his own field and was now a well-known figure, with no shortage of people trying to curry favor with him. According to Stan Wallace, there was an incident where, while on a business trip, a partner slipped something into his drink and even sent a good-looking girl to his room. Not only did he kick the girl out, but the deal that was almost finalized also fell through.After that, some people began to question Trista Fowler's sexual orientation. When Stan Wallace talked about this, he couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time.I glanced at the hotel lobby. The items on the counter had been m

Chapter 284: Are You Too Understanding?

When I was first pulled into a group by Stan Wallace, all my friends, except for Trista Fowler, had re-added me as a friend.On the third day of helping to take care of the "little mute" Mai Sui, I unexpectedly received a friend request from Trista Fowler.I had long intended to mend my relationship with Trista Fowler. This way, I could also use the opportunity while inquiring about Mai Sui to gather some information about Stan Wallace's work.The day Trista Fowler mentioned that something had been added to the wine, I naturally thought of the Red Spider Lily, but after confirming with both Trista Fowler and Mai Sui, it turned out to be just a common drug that causes nervous system excitement.Yongan grew hotter each day, yet Stan Wallace's return date remained uncertain.This morning, I counted the days on my phone; Stan Wallace had already been gone for forty-two days.Unfortunately, the work piled up in my hands, and the same went for Stan Wallace. Even our call times, which u

Chapter 285: Do You Want to Get Your Ears Pierced?

In an instant, the sudden turn of events left me no time to think. My act of evasion was instinctive, and so was my stumbling chase after the elevator as soon as I heard its doors close. When I met Stan Wallace's gaze outside the now-closed elevator, I was still in a daze, not even sure what I was thinking. He hadn't left with Tang Li; perhaps he stepped out of the elevator the moment he saw me, and by then, I had already hidden myself.I wasn't sure what this kind of evasive behavior meant for other couples, but for Stan Wallace and me, my actions felt like a tacit acceptance and a letting go.Stan Wallace took off his coat and draped it over my shoulders, asking if I was angry. Instinctively, I shook my head. I wasn't angry; I genuinely believed in Stan Wallace. I was just sad, perhaps because of that moment of weakness and hesitation, or maybe because deep down, I felt I shouldn't be preventing any possibilities between Stan Wallace and others.Stan Wallace's brows furrowed bri

Chapter 286: Am I Not Yours? Su Luo

I reported the approximate time I entered the hotel last night, and the staff in the surveillance room pulled up footage from various angles on a neatly arranged screen.As the time in the top left corner ticked by, four people took the elevator to the floors above and below Stan Wallace's room. The stairwell, however, was not under surveillance, and the spot where the woman confirmed she had lost her necklace was right in the blind spot of the cameras.The thief was too cautious; not even the edge of their clothing was caught on camera, which precisely highlighted the issue at hand.Just as I was about to say something, Stan Wallace suddenly appeared in the elevator footage.He and Tang Li walked into the elevator one after another, standing a few steps apart. Tang Li kept looking up, her eyes fixed on the floor display.Right before the elevator doors opened, she suddenly grabbed Stan Wallace's arm. Given that she had been observing something, this sudden move seemed premeditate

Chapter 287: Does It Hurt?

The interview on the screen came to an end, and a reporter followed backstage to capture some behind-the-scenes footage. Stan Wallace quickly disappeared from the public eye, but the camera briefly focused on Tang Li.Perhaps because Stan Wallace and Tang Li often appeared together, the reporter adjusted the camera to focus on Tang Li's face, asking if she had any other plans with Stan Wallace, and if they would visit the famous Lovers' Bridge in the city.Since it was behind-the-scenes footage, the questions were inevitably personal and gossipy.Tang Li smiled sweetly, with just the right amount of shyness, and shook her head without hesitation, "Not for now."Her answer, while seemingly dismissive, carried a hint of determination.The reporter let out a knowing "Oh" and said with a smile, "I see."Tang Li didn't seem affected by the incident in the elevator yesterday, but perhaps because I already knew the details, I felt she was deliberately showing her right side, avoiding at

Chapter 288: Craving to Devour You

The four-lane road was especially wide at midnight, and Xu Ze drove the car at a breakneck speed, almost drowning out the music in the cabin with the roar of the engine."Yeah, a little." Stan Wallace turned his head and replied, his gaze still gentle and tolerant. The sadness hidden in his tone seemed as illusory as the streaks of light outside the window.My fingertips curled, leaving a pale line on the leather seat cover.I leaned over, pressing my lips to his earlobe. The sensation was warm, and the wound made the surrounding skin feel hot as well."When did you get this done?" I asked, pulling back slightly."I took a shortcut while rushing to an interview and saw a small shop with red letters advertising ear piercings, so I stopped by," Stan Wallace said nonchalantly, as if it wasn't something worth mentioning.But he was so busy, and he was someone who didn't care much for grooming and hated trouble. He didn't mention any of that.Did they disinfect? Was the shop clean? W

Chapter 289: Both My Father and Mother Are Beautiful

I took a deep breath, staring blankly at the person on the bed who was struggling to speak. My fingertips gradually turned cold before I belatedly looked at Stan Wallace's reaction."What do you want to say? Say it again."Aunt Miao Yun suddenly spoke up. She bent down, getting close to Uncle Zheng's face. Seeing that he had no reaction, she turned back with a hint of helplessness, finally addressing me:"Your Uncle Zheng can't speak clearly yet. I can only make out that he occasionally mentions my name and yours; anything else is incomprehensible."She asked, "Did you understand him?"My heart, which had been in my throat, finally settled. I slowly exhaled, freeing myself from the paranoia and anxiety. I shook my head and met Stan Wallace's inquiring gaze."I only heard Gloria Kit's name," Stan Wallace said, his lips curling slightly. Perhaps to avoid upsetting Aunt Miao, he added earnestly, "Take your time, no rush. He'll be able to speak clearly eventually."Aunt Miao nodded

Chapter 290: Blood...

I let out a scoffing laugh, raising an eyebrow as I patted Uncle Zheng's hand with my palm facing down. "Impressive, Uncle Zheng."Uncle Zheng chuckled, his voice still a bit muddled, but with a decent complexion, he seemed to have regained some of his former spirit. "Of course.""You're alive," Uncle Zheng whispered, his eyes red and unguarded in front of me, the man who always exuded masculinity. "That's great, kid.""Mm." I rubbed my nose, which had started to feel sore, and glanced at Stan Wallace. "We're all alive. That's wonderful."Seeing Uncle Zheng get healthier day by day, I began to understand Aunt Miao Yun's words about 'contentment.'The table couldn't fit all the food, so Stan Wallace and Wei Ming brought over two bedside tables.Uncle Zheng could only eat soft foods, and Yu SiSi, who had grabbed some fruits before the meal, also didn't eat much. The four of us, including Stan Wallace, ate from the table, while Aunt Miao Yun mentioned that if it wasn't enough, she w
