Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Ruan Zeyan’s face was cast in a threatening shadow. He yanked Ling Tianya’s hand off and pushed her away, “Get away from me!”
Ling Tianya’s back hit the wall hard, but she managed to continue with a sweet voice, “If you don’t like the idea, just tell me. No need to be mad.”
Ruan Zeyan held her down again at her shoulders, “Ling Tianya, stop talking about the things that happened six years ago. You are making me sick!”
Zhang Ke arrived at Ling Tianya’s apartment with two bags of writing materials Ling Tianya had asked for. She went back to her place to fetch them for her.
The doorbell rang and rang, nobody answered.
That’s strange, is she still not home?
Zhang Ke put both bags in one hand and typed in the door code with the other hand.
After she opened the door, Zhang Ke made her way in, “Miss Ling, are you…home…?”
The scene in the room startled Zhang Ke, bags of paper falling from her hands onto the floor.
There is a man in Miss Ling’s place! Not to mention, an ungodly attractive man!
The body language of the two was even more peculiar. Were they making out? It didn’t seem like it because there was absolutely no tender love between them. Rather, they looked as if they were about to fight.
It was not just any man. That was Ruan Zeyan of the Yuan Teng Corporation!
Zhang Ke met him once at Liu Fei, and he had left quite an impression on her.
“Miss Ling … you two…” Zhang Ke stood there uncomfortably, not knowing what to do.
Then, Ruan Zeyan let go of Ling Tianya and immediately turned around and left the apartment, without even looking at her.
The door was shut and Ling Tianya’s body started to shake uncontrollably. She lowered herself onto the ground, sitting there half-paralyzed.
“Miss Ling, are you okay?” Zhang Ke walked over with great concern. She saw how pale Ling Tianya’s face was, “Are you hurt? You’re scaring me.”
“I’m fine.” Ling Tianya tried to play it off. She let Zhang Ke help her up slowly, but her tired body was completely exhausted after the encounter with Ruan Zeyan. A splitting headache hit her as well.
“Is your head hurting again?” Zhang Ke asked as she helped Ling Tianya onto the couch.
Ling Tianya sank into the cushions with her eyes closed. It was not clear what she was thinking.
Zhang Ke passed a bottle of water to Ling Tianya, “Miss Ling, was that man Ruan Zeyan of the Yuan Teng Corporation? Why was he in your apartment? What’s your relationship with him?”
Ling Tianya took the bottle of water and drank half of it in one go, “That’s not a question you should ask.”
Zhang Ke nodded, “Oh, okay.” She was used to Ling Tianya saying that to her.
“And –” Ling Tianya finished the other half of the bottle, “Don’t tell anyone.”
“You don’t have to worry about that, Miss Ling.” Zhang Ke affirmed her.
Ling Tianya threw the empty bottle in the trashcan before she sat back down on the couch. She curled her body up into a ball, trying to make the headache go away.
Zhang Ke thought the apartment was too quiet, so she turned on the TV in the living room. An interview with Guan Meiyi was playing on an entertainment channel.
“Ms Ling, look, it’s Guan Meiyi! The lead actress in your show!” Zhang Ke said.
Guan Meiyi looked elegant and beautiful, every little movement was indicative of her upper-class upbringing.
Looking at the TV screen, Ling Tianya’s eyes became heavy. She was sleepy.
After disappearing for six years, she made it back — alive. That meant judgement day was near for her enemies.
Today was only the beginning.
