Despite feeling low and uncomfortable, Yan Xiruo didn’t have much time to feel sad.
Aside from studying in school, she accepted three home tutor assignments and a writing job for a magazine publisher. She was as busy as a spinning top every day.
On this day, she had finished dinner and was about to go to the gas station to take over someone’s duty. A black Bentley slowly drove toward her.
The uniformed driver got off the car and said respectfully, “Young Madam.”
Upon her seeing Grandpa’s driver, Uncle Zhang, a gentle smile appeared on Yan Xiruo’s face. “Uncle Zhang, why are you here?”
“Old Master asked me to take you somewhere.”
Yan Xiruo felt puzzled. “Where to?”
“Young Madam, you will find out after going there.”
“But…”
“Young Madam, Old Master already knows that you haven’t been in contact with Young Master for a week. Also, Old Master got someone to inform the magazine publisher and tuition agency that you have resigned.”
Yan Xiruo frowned and wanted to say something when Uncle Zhang continued, “Young Madam, Old Master asked me to tell you that you are the Young Madam of the Lu family. You don’t have to work hard outside to earn money. Old Master wants to carry a great-grandchild soon. He hopes you can fulfill his wish.”
Yan Xiruo bit her lips. She knew it clearly in her heart that Grandpa felt heartache for her and didn’t want her to suffer outside. However, her identity as Mrs. Lu-in-name wouldn’t last for too long…
“Will Grandpa be at the place you’re bringing me to?” If Grandpa was around, she had to have a chat with him. She didn’t want to lead a comfortable life and be a useless young mistress at home. She also didn’t want to keep relying on Grandpa to provide for her entire family.
“Young Madam, you will find out after going there.”
Half an hour later, Uncle Zhang drove to a Beihai Port.
Night had fallen. A huge five-story luxury cruise was anchored in the vast sea. The lights on the cruise were shining brightly, and there were strict defense measures in place.
Yan Xiruo recently heard from her roommate in the dormitory a few days ago that there was going to be a grand party in An City. Most of the people present would be influential bigshots and distinguished guests.
“Uncle Zhang, is Grandpa on the cruise as well?” Aside from scouting for beauties, businessmen would also take this opportunity to get to know new people. She heard that business deals worth hundreds of billions of dollars would be closed then.
“Young Madam, this is the invitation card and your room card. Old Master is waiting for you upstairs.”
Yan Xiruo received the invitation card and room card. After saying goodbye to Uncle Zhang, she boarded the cruise.
The first and second floors were exclusively for the young and rich to scout for beauties. There were dozens of models and celebrities who had just debuted waiting for their financiers to select them. The fourth floor was for businessmen to network in. Those who can reach the fifth floor could be said to be bigshots in the upper-class society. Without the presence of a financier, no models or celebrities could enter.
Yan Xiruo’s room was on the fifth floor. When she went up, she gave Grandpa a call. Grandpa asked her to return to her room to change her outfit. Everyone was glamorously dressed on the cruise. Yan Xiruo was in a white T-shirt and a pair of skinny jeans. Indeed, she looked like a misfit.
Yan Xiruo swiped the room card and opened the door. It was pitch black inside. She was about to slot the room key in when a black shadow suddenly attacked her.
She was so frightened that she screamed. Before she could avoid it, someone pushed her delicate body against the wall.
The strong smell of masculinity was mixed with the scent of alcohol. Shortly after, his burning lips suppressed hers. She was flustered and waved her hands, but they were reversed to be placed behind her head.
