Shang Kaiwen leaned in Wang Ruo’an’s arms, docile as a kitten, "Ruo’an, I love you so much!"
Wang Ruo’an lazily glanced at Shang Kaiwen, "What do you want? Just say it."
Both of them actually understood perfectly well. Wang Ruo’an did love Shang Kaiwen, but now this love had transford, becoming a kind of warped adoration and possessiveness. Any disagreent with his wishes ant Shang Kaiwen would suffer.
Now, Shang Kaiwen couldn’t even say a word to another man. Even a polite smile was a taboo; the possible consequence was a severe beating. Once done, Wang Ruo’an would hold her, crying bitterly with regret. This had beco a vicious cycle, clear to both of them.
Round and round it went.
Shang Kaiwen couldn’t leave Wang Ruo’an because she simply had no opportunity. Otherwise, she wished she could escape to a place where no one knew her and never see Wang Ruo’an again in her life.
Even a plain life had now beco a luxury. She had wealth and power, commanding whether the wind or rain, reigning as the unyielding Mrs. Wang, always accompanied by two bodyguards. They weren’t protecting her safety but ensuring she returned to the Wang Family unhard every day.
This villa had beco Shang Kaiwen’s cage. She could spend lavishly on the street, but she couldn’t stop herself from returning ho. Each return marked the beginning of a nightmare.
Behind her forced smiles lay endless tornt and fear.
"Bai Xiao has secrets. I want her to obediently listen to . I want her to crawl and beg before ."
Just thinking about how Bai Xiao was the reason for her current situation made Shang Kaiwen wish she could consu Bai Xiao entirely.
"What do you want to do?"
As long as he wasn’t crazy, Wang Ruo’an was truly good to Shang Kaiwen, so good it made others envious.
"Isn’t she most focused on her family? I think her two sisters would be the best candidates. I want her to obediently walk into the trap."
Shang Kaiwen still wasn’t giving up. If she had Bai Xiao, she’d find a way to ditch Wang Ruo’an. No matter what, with Bai Xiao, she’d have a strong backing. Just Bai Jingshan was enough to deal with Wang Ruo’an. At that ti, it would be her best chance for revenge.
Wang Ruo’an must be shaken off; she couldn’t live this kind of life for another day.
"Isn’t it too rushed now? You should be aware that we just dealt with Jiang Shaoqing, and now as several families unite, if there’s any disturbance from Bai Ju or Bai Yue, wouldn’t Bai Xiao suspect us? By then, alerting the snake might be more trouble than it’s worth." Wang Ruo’an actually wasn’t afraid. Bai Ju and Bai Yue had no background and were easy to deal with! But the problem was with Bai Xiao.
If Bai Xiao was alard, would Jiang Shaoqing just stand by?
This ti Wang Ruo’an had already been scolded terribly by his uncle. This ti the combined losses of the Wang and Qu families totaled thirty billion. Stock prices had stabilized, but since the Bai and Jiang families wouldn’t give up, their losses couldn’t be recouped anyti soon.
This fall was already a foregone conclusion.
The uncle had now ordered him to behave himself, not to do anything that would provoke a counterattack from the Bai and Jiang families; otherwise, he was courting death.
Shang Kaiwen silently kept quiet. This was the first ti Wang Ruo’an refused her. At this rate, soon Wang Ruo’an wouldn’t be able to control himself, which wasn’t a good sign.
It seed Wang Ruo’an’s usefulness was about to end.
Leaning into Wang Ruo’an’s embrace, she raised a sweet smile, her fingers hooking his chin, like an evil goddess, alluring and seductive.
"Darling, I’ll listen to you."
Tender and soft, easing Wang Ruo’an into a fiery mood.
"You’re so good. What reward should you get today?"
Shang Kaiwen leaned in.
The two rolled onto the bed.
Wang Ruo’an was rather fierce in bed, so much so that Shang Kaiwen eventually had to beg for rcy, enduring the soreness all over her body. Wang Ruo’an’s prowess in this aspect was just as ruthless as his warped hobbies, leaving many scars on her body every ti.
Wang Ruo’an went to take a shower.
Shang Kaiwen opened the wardrobe, changing into new sleepwear. The previous one was already ruined.
She poured a glass of whiskey, Wang Ruo’an’s favorite, lightly tapping it with her fingers.
No one could see the faint white powder falling into the glass.
The smile at the corner of her mouth was cold. If Wang Ruo’an couldn’t help her with these things, what use was he?
She snuggled under the covers, turning to quietly fall asleep.
When Wang Ruo’an ca out after his shower, he saw the glass of liquor. Shang Kaiwen knew his preferences well, and he drank it all in one go.
His own n followed Shang Kaiwen twenty-four hours a day. Whatever she had in mind, she couldn’t hide from his sight.
......
A week later, the chairman of the Wang Group, Wang Ruo’an, suddenly suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and stroke, was rushed to the hospital for ergency treatnt. Though his life was saved, no amount of dical treatnt could cure his aftereffects.
Wang Ruo’an was paralyzed in bed, unable to speak, a high-level quadriplegic, no different from a useless person, except for being able to blink his eyes.
Shang Kaiwen almost stayed by Wang Ruo’an’s side day and night, taking care with great attention, without a hint of impatience. Everyone who saw Shang Kaiwen praised her kindness and virtue. Managing to do this facing a husband like that deeply changed the Wang family’s impression of her for the better, even earning considerable approval from the Qu family.
Shang Kaiwen’s deep affection for Wang Ruo’an, after his release from the hospital, moved the Qu and Wang families even more.
As the wife of soone almost indistinguishable from a useless person, the Wang and Qu families even prepared for Shang Kaiwen’s divorce. Even in the face of love, for a life like this, they were psychologically prepared.
They were prepared for the possibility of the Shang family raising the issue of divorce.
So much so that, appreciating Shang Kaiwen’s docility, the elders of the Wang and Qu families even raised the possibility, agreeing to a divorce for Shang Kaiwen.
Nobody expected that in front of all the elders, Shang Kaiwen would cry and kneel on the ground, begging not to be separated from Wang Ruo’an. She vowed to take care of him for a lifeti, never parting, never finding another.
These words moved elders who had long been accustod to couples fleeing when disaster struck, prompting extre respect for Shang Kaiwen. Thus, a month later, Shang Kaiwen officially took over the Wang Group; Shang and Wang’s executive director was Shang Kaiwen.
Even though most of the power remained in the hands of the Qu family, Shang Kaiwen had finally obtained everything she desired.
Six months later, seeing Wang Ruo’an, plump and well-cared-for, and Shang Kaiwen, focused on his care, without any scandals or any male bodyguards—her assistant and secretaries were all female—the Qu family uncle finally believed Shang Kaiwen’s sincerity, trusting her deep affection for Wang Ruo’an.
They fully entrusted the Wang Group to Shang Kaiwen, acknowledging her astute business managent; at least in those months, the business had been flourishing. Both families were satisfied with such a Shang Kaiwen.
Shang Kaiwen formally took charge of the Wang Group.
