Rong Jingyang was confined to the police station, accused of murdering a high-ranking government official.
His lawyer was denied access, and his friends were also barred from seeing him.
He was directly imprisoned and his personal freedom was restricted.
Rong Jingyang: "—"
A sharp glint flashed in his dark eyes, along with an undisguised weariness.
It wasn't that he was worried about not getting out. While the Rong family wasn't quite able to control everything in the US, it wasn't easy for anyone to touch him if they tried.
Moreover, the fact that he was being secretly imprisoned rather than secretly executed indicated that the other party didn't dare to kill him.
After all, if he were to die at the hands of the FBI, it would cause more than just a ripple in the US.
How many people would have to accompany him in death?
Therefore, Rong Jingyang was certain he wouldn't be held there for too long.
But—
The FBI… was it Director Lei?
Why was he imprisoning him? What was his objective?
Framing him with false charges wouldn't stand up to scrutiny. Even if the evidence could be made to look convincing, the Rong family's connections were not to be underestimated.
"Sigh~"
Despite being imprisoned, Rong Jingyang wasn't worried about his own safety. Instead, his thoughts were entirely focused on Du Ruoxin.
Where did she go?
Why was she avoiding him?
If… his mother could use this opportunity… to make Du Ruoxin worry about him, would she stop running away?
In this barren cell, Rong Jingyang could only find solace in such hopeful thoughts.
—
The messy room looked like a bloody battlefield after a fierce battle of three hundred rounds.
Clothes and tissues were scattered everywhere.
The entire room, besides the surging hormones, was filled with the strong scent of blood.
It was the blood of a virgin.
Grace had been coaxed into bed by Qin Yunxi last night.
Actually, it wasn't coaxing; she had willingly given herself to him.
It was after last night that Grace realized her aversion to Qin Yunxi had disappeared. Previously, when he got close, she would break out in rashes and hives because she was sensitive to scumbags.
But now, realizing her heart belonged to him, that repulsive reaction naturally vanished.
"Mmm—"
Feeling something stirring within her, Grace let out a soft moan and opened her eyes.
"Good morning, wife."
The man's handsome and dashing features came into view.
Grace blushed, realizing what he was doing. She shyly avoided his gaze, "I'm not…"
She had said she would only decide whether to marry him after two years.
Qin Yunxi had no intention of arguing with her about such matters. He directly picked up the diamond ring from last night and slipped it onto her finger.
Grace didn't want it. "Qin Yunxi…"
She tried to take it off, but the man's deep and resonant voice sounded in her ear, "If you dare to take it off, I'll send you one every day."
"Every day, different styles, different designs."
Grace: "…………"
This man!
He was truly a rogue!
How could she like such a rogue!
Her brain must have gone haywire! Poisoned!!!
"Qin Yunxi, you're forcing me… Mmm…" She had agreed to marry him in two years, so why was he going back on his word? How could he…
Bastard!
She was talking to him, but what was he doing!!!
Could he let her speak properly?
The truth was, in a place like a bed, the only one who could speak properly was the man.
Grace was tossed and turned, forced into silence by Mr. Qin's various maneuvers.
After a long, long time…
It wasn't until the sun was setting in the afternoon that they emerged from the room.
No, Grace was carried out by Qin Yunxi.
She said she had legs and could walk herself, but Qin Yunxi completely ignored her, stubbornly insisting on carrying her.
Grace: "—"
Heavens, she wished she could just die!
Wasn't this a blatant declaration to everyone that she had been so tormented by Qin Yunxi that she couldn't get out of bed anymore?!!!
Truly!
She really wanted to strangle this man to death!
