Ye Lu was in a daze, unaware of how long she had slept. When she awoke, the sky was bright, and sunlight stread in through the half-open curtains, illuminating the whole room. She opened her eyes, still with a heavy sense of grogginess.
What’s going on? Where is this? It wasn’t her room.
For a mont, she heard movent from soone beside her, and she couldn’t help but glance over in confusion.
What t her gaze was a man’s head. Her mind buzzed, she was sowhat dazed, but when she got a clear look at his face, she gasped, her blood freezing.
"Ah..." She scread and abruptly sat up. Looking down at herself, she discovered her naked body beneath the covers. Her face instantly turned pale.
How could this be? How could she end up lying naked next to this man?
In her panic, she hastily put on her clothes.
Her abrupt movent woke the man beside her.
Shang Jingchen opened his eyes groggily, looked at her and also appeared slightly confused, unable to quickly comprehend the situation.
Ye Lu’s face was as white as a sheet. She looked at him in panic, recalling last night’s events, she couldn’t stop trembling.
Soone had drugged her drinking water. Who wanted to harm her this way?
"Ye Lu--"
Shang Jingchen instantly woke up, looking down at his naked body. His forehead was throbbing, his gaze was as sharp as a dagger cutting into her, his tone icy cold.
"You wretched, cunning woman. I can’t believe I fell into your trap again!"
Facing his unbridled fury, Ye Lu’s face turned deathly pale. She tightened her grip on the duvet, retreating back. She knew that this was no ordinary event, it was a conspiracy that would plunge her into a dark abyss.
And Shang Jingchen would despise her to the bone.
"It wasn’t , I didn’t drug you."
Her voice trembled, looking at his deadly fierce eyes, her heart tightened with fear.
"Not you?" Shang Jingchen’s eyes were about to split with anger, his tone frosty, "Then was it ? Aside from you and , who else was in this villa?"
"I don’t know." Ye Lu shook her head desperately. For a mont, she couldn’t make sense why she would faint after drinking the water.
That’s right, she also fainted.
Her eyes brightened, as if grasping a lifesaving straw. She looked up to explain, expecting him to understand.
"I also fainted. If it was , why would I faint too? So, it wasn’t . You have to believe ."
But Shang Jingchen roared angrily: "So stop arguing. Do you think I’ll believe you? If you also fainted, why did we end up in bed together? If it wasn’t you who did such disgusting thing, who else could it be? You’re really a disgusting woman, stooping to any level to achieve your goal, have you no sha?"
Ye Lu paled, battered by his stormy anger, she felt deeply wronged and humiliated.
She was also a victim!
Yet he vented all his anger on her.
"I don’t know, only that I didn’t do it, I, Ye Lu, may be greedy for money, but I’m not such a disgraceful person. Whether you believe it or not, I did not do it, and that’s final." She lifted her head, her eyes defiant, her tone hardened.
"You continue to act innocent, don’t expect to believe you again. Last night, you deliberately tricked into coming back here, tried to win my trust, then drugged , creating this disgusting situation. One step at a ti, what a strategy, what a tactic."
Shang Jingchen’s chest was filled with raging fury, looking at her still pretending to be innocent, he couldn’t contain his fury. He lifted his hand and slapped her hard across the face.
