We Married in a Flash After One-Night Stand

In the corridor of the Shangri-La Hotel, Xia Zhi wrapped in a bath towel, her face flush with red, staggered as she ran forward, leaning on the walls. She felt her body temperature gradually rising, an unnamed restlessness within her threatening to burst forth uncontrollably.

She knew she had been drugged!

Her stepmother had, in order to secure a very important business cooperation, drugged and offered her to a tycoon after getting her drunk. Fortunately, she had woken up in time and, mustering her strength, had knocked the tycoon unconscious when he wasn't paying attention, which allowed her the chance to escape.

Xia Zhi's breathing was rapid, the sensations in her body growing ever stronger. She needed help now, to either be taken to a hospital or to have someone buy some medicine to alleviate her condition. But looking around, she saw not a single attendant.

Her steps grew heavier, and she ended up leaning against the door of a nearby room, repeatedly pressing the doorbell with her fingers and weakly calling out, "Open the door, save me…"

Moments later, someone opened the door, and Xia Zhi, losing her support, swayed and collapsed into the chest of the person who opened the door.

Instantly, the rush of male pheromones overwhelmed her, and the beast inside her could no longer be restrained—it surged out!

"Sir... please help me... I'm sorry, I will take responsibility for you…"

As her words trailed off, she could no longer hold back. She wrapped her arms around the man's neck and, unable to control herself, kissed him.

A night of madness left the inexperienced Xia Zhi feeling half dead. When she woke up in the morning, she was so sore that she didn't want to move at all.

The room was filled with a romantic, intense atmosphere of post-joy.

Xia Zhi cautiously turned to look at the person beside her, relieved to see that he was facing away from her, still asleep.

She slowly got up, first using the landline to quietly call her best friend Ruan Shishi, asking her to bring over a set of clothes, then went to take a shower.

Her first time, although it started under less than ideal circumstances, the ensuing experience was incredibly thrilling and intense.

The man was quite skilled.

After coming out of the bathroom, Xia Zhi sat quietly on the sofa waiting for Ruan Shishi. About twenty minutes later, there was a knock at the door; she quickly got up to open it.

"Wait outside!" she said, taking the paper bag and swiftly closing the door.

She quickly dressed, and glancing at the still sleeping man on the bed, she thought for a moment, then picked up a pen from the nightstand and left him a note.

"I'm leaving first, call me when you wake up," followed by a string of phone numbers.

Hearing the door close, He Jinnan on the bed opened his eyes, turned over, and lazily reached for the note on the nightstand. After reading it, he smiled, flicking the paper playfully with his finger.

Xia Zhi and Ruan Shishi left the hotel and took a taxi home.

"What happened to you last night? Where did your clothes go?" Ruan Shishi asked with a worried face.

Xia Zhi clenched her molars and said, "I was schemed against by my stepmother, and I lost my virginity."

"What? Really?" Ruan Shishi exclaimed, "Are you going back home to demand justice? Don't force it, your dad doesn't support you, don't get hurt again."

Xia Zhi gave a cold laugh, "Even if it kills me, I'll make sure I take someone down with me!"

When they reached the nearby subway entrance, the driver stopped the car, and Xia Zhi said, "Shishi, you go ahead back, don't worry about me."

"I'm not at ease, I'll come with you."

"I'll be fine, don't worry." Xia Zhi smiled at her reassuringly.

"All right then, if anything happens, call me." Ruan Shishi got out of the car and watched as Xia Zhi's car sped away.

Xia Family.

As soon as Xia Zhi entered the house, she saw her father, Xia Shuyuan, and her stepmother, Zheng Qiuyue, sitting on the sofa with both of their faces drawn long.

"Zheng Qiuyue!" She stormed over to her stepmother, pointing her finger angrily, "Why did you harm me last night?"

Zheng Qiuyue, confronted by the accusation, said innocently, "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't harm you! It was all your father's idea."

Xia Zhi was stunned, turned her head to Xia Shuyuan, and asked incredulously, "Dad, was it you? Did you have her drug me to sleep with that old man?"

Xia Shuyuan's face was stern. He stood up without a word and slapped Xia Zhi across the face!

"How is spending one night with a boss a big deal? If it can help our family's company, can't you sacrifice a little? You can't seem to get anything right!" Xia Shuyuan said angrily.

Xia Zhi, holding her face, glared at him hatefully, "How can you even call yourself a father after saying that? If I can't handle it, why didn't you ask Xia Mo to do it? She's your daughter too!"

"Slap!" Another slap came, this time from Zheng Qiuyue, "Who do you think you are? Comparing yourself to your sister?"

Enraged, Xia Zhi looked at Zheng Qiuyue's vile face and didn't hold back, swinging her arm to return the slap!

"And what are you? A mistress who destroys other people's families, and you dare to hit me?"

In that moment, she let out years of pent-up suffering and resentment, striking Zheng Qiuyue hard enough to stagger her.

At that moment, her half-sister Xia Mo came down the stairs and saw her mother getting slapped.

She charged at Xia Zhi like a madwoman, screaming, "Who let you hit my mom? You shameless woman!"

Xia Mo's freshly done fingernails came into play, and as she grappled with Xia Zhi, she scratched several bloody streaks on her hands and face.

Xia Zhi wasn't about to show weakness. She grabbed her sister's hair and shook it back and forth, causing her to scream in pain as clumps of her hair were ripped out.

It took Xia Shuyuan and Zheng Qiuyue a great deal of effort to pull the two apart.

Xia Shuyuan, pointing at Xia Zhi's nose, yelled, "Get out of this house! And never come back!"

"You think I want to live here? If this house wasn't my mother's, I would have left long ago!" Xia Zhi screamed hysterically at them, "You've taken over my mother's dowry and inheritance, but one day, I will take it all back!"

Her voice echoed in the living room, haunting everyone present like a specter.

Xia Zhi quickly packed her belongings and left the house. Before getting into the car, she turned for a deep look at the small building filled with memories, her eyes welling with tears, then she got into the car and drove away.

She drove aimlessly through the streets, reflecting on her past - her mother had died when she was twelve, and Zheng Qiuyue had moved in with Xia Mo, turning her colorful life gray, never experiencing another good day since.

She stopped the car and uncontrollably leaned over the steering wheel and sobbed loudly.

Just then, her phone rang with an unfamiliar number. Wiping her tears, she answered with her voice carrying a nasal twang from crying, "Hello, who is this?"

Hearing that something was off in her voice, He Jinnan asked with a furrowed brow, "Have you been crying?"
