NOVEL WEB Chapter 2: Chapter 2: Clean Up and Then See Him Again
When she was eighteen and saw him for the first time at the engagement banquet, the man in the suit exuding an air of nobility, she experienced the feeling of a fluttering heart for the first time.
Unfortunately...
"Get in the car!" The man narrowed his eyes, his dangerous voice breaking the silence first.
"Hehe... No need, we can talk right here," Su Xingyue said with a glance at the car behind him, quickly shaking her head to refuse.
She had managed to escape on her wedding night, and certainly didn't want to be dragged back...
"It seems you still aren't quite clear about your current situation!" He coldly swept a glance at the bodyguard beside him, then asked her with a snort.
She no longer had a choice!
His words made her pause... Indeed, she couldn't possibly escape like she did on her wedding night.
"Madam, please get in the car!" The bodyguard had already opened the door for her and gestured for her to enter!
Their manner seemed to suggest that if she didn't get in the car, they would bind her and put her in the car anyway.
So, gritting her teeth, Su Xingyue saw that she had no other option, and thus reluctantly turned around and got into the car.
After Su Xingyue obediently got into the car, Nan Yuling swept a cold glance at her before he himself entered the vehicle.
A line of people quickly disappeared into the night.
...
In the hotel, at the top floor, within the presidential suite.
"Ten minutes, cleanse yourself properly before you come see me!" His cold eyes landed on her white dress stained red and on her messy hair; even her pretty and clean face looked unkempt because of the ruined makeup.
There was a clear look of revulsion in his cold eyes.
Seeing the disgust in his gaze, Su Xingyue suddenly remembered that before the wedding, the Nan Family's butler had spent a week telling her about Nan Yuling's preferences to "serve" her new husband well!
Among them, a key point introduced by the butler was that he had a mania for cleanliness, an extreme one!
Then... Su Xingyue suddenly understood. She deliberately reached up to tousle her already disheveled hair even more and then looked up at him on purpose and said,
"Sorry, Mr. Nan, I'm not in the habit of bathing." Afraid he wouldn't believe her, she added, "Our crew is poor, and it's difficult to even take a bath sometimes, so I simply don't..."
Su Xingyue believed that given his level of cleanliness obsession, he would definitely be extremely disgusted with her and would directly tell her to get lost!
As soon as her words fell, a look of contempt flashed in his eyes, but soon, it returned to iciness.
Following that, a sneer appeared on his stern face.
"Or do you want me to do it myself?"
Mr. Nan? How much she wanted to disassociate herself from him!
With a light sound, he suddenly had a sharp dagger in his hand, and with precise movements, he sliced it across her shoulder...
The strap of Su Xingyue's white dress was cut off just like that.
Simultaneously, the dress with the severed strap began to slide down...
Thankfully, Su Xingyue's reflexes were quick, and she violently grabbed the fabric of the dress, holding it against her chest!
"Have you gone mad?" His action had just scared her immensely; she thought he was going to kill her... as revenge for her running away from the wedding!
She hadn't expected that he would cut through her dress strap...
Compared to her panic, Nan Yuling's face was calm at this moment.
"Nine minutes left!" He glanced at the time on his wristwatch, reminding her.
Angry, she bit her lip and finally hastened into the bathroom!
The first thing Su Xingyue did upon entering the bathroom was to carefully examine her shoulders.
