Half a month ago, in a hillside villa in Swansea, England.
On the leather sofa in the living room, a woman's hands were tied behind her back. Her eyes were filled with fear and anger. Two tall men in black were leaning against the wall.
The television hanging in the living room was on, showing the BBC news channel. The blonde and blue-eyed beauty host announced in English," We are now breaking the news. Half an hour ago, there was a shooting incident at the entrance of Swansea University. The victim was a local student at Swansea University. At present, there was no evidence that the student had a bad record. The reason why he was suddenly shot was unknown. However, the police are still investigating the suspect. At present, there is only one Lincoln limousine without a license plate as a suspect. We sincerely request witnesses to provide clues. Thank you very much!”After the news broadcast, the sound of someone coming down the stairs could be heard. A fat man with brown hair, amber eyes, and dressed like a gentleman came down. He was about forty years old.
When he walked to the living room, he saw the woman tied up on the sofa. He shouted nervously," How can you treat the Countess like this? Quickly let go! Hurry!" The two people leaning against the wall released the woman who was tied up. The fat man waved his hand, and the two bodyguards walked out.
The untied woman was very nervous. She sat on the sofa with her arms around her knees. Her entire body was trembling, afraid that the fat man would approach her.
The fat man sat down on the sofa opposite her and lit a cigar. After taking two puffs, she said," They are always so impatient. I've scared you, Countess.”
The woman on the sofa raised her head. There was no trace of makeup on her plain face. Her black hair was tied up, and her big eyes were embedded in her exquisite face. She was about 22 years old. " Why did you kill him? He doesn't even know you?" she asked in English, trembling.”
"Oh, oh, oh, listen, you're asking me why? It's all because of you, Countess. If you had accepted my invitation, he might not have died.”The man said in English innocently.
Half an hour ago.
A Lincoln limousine stopped at the side gate of Swansea University. When they saw a girl in a white dress walking out of the school gate, one of the men in black followed her and suddenly whispered in her ear," Mr. Vladi, please."”
The girl in the long dress heard this and ran away. Her eyes were filled with fear, but she did not run far. Her high heels hindered her pace. The man in black rushed forward and took out a German pistol with a silencer. He aimed at a young man who had just walked past and fired. There was no sound.
The man in front fell to the ground with blood flowing from his back. The man in black calmly said," Can we go now? Countess." After saying that, he aimed the gun at a woman who was walking past him on the left.
"I'm leaving. Don't shoot!" the girl in the white dress said anxiously. The man in black quickly pulled the girl into the black Lincoln and was soon tied up in the villa.
--------
"You demon, why don't you let me go?”The girl was no longer as frightened as before. Her eyes were filled with anger and disdain.
"Look at you, Countess. Please be gentle. Three years ago, you only called me a pervert and a lunatic. Now, you've already called me a demon, but I like this title.”the fat man said seriously.
"Tell me, why did you kidnap me?”The girl lowered her voice. She knew that she had nowhere to run. The incident from three years ago surfaced. She understood that the person in front of her was worse than a beast!
"Don't worry, I'm not interested in your 36C figure. Only Cyrus is interested. He almost lost his life to save you back then. Of course, I'm here to ask you for help, Countess.”The fat man blew out a smoke ring.
"What is it? I don't think I can help you with anything. You have plenty of people who will work for you and help you do the dirtiest business in the world!”She looked at him angrily.
"Filthy? I don't think you're aware of your earl husband Cyrus's business, or you wouldn't say that about me.”
"I don't want to talk about Cyrus with you.”The girl was already sitting upright on the sofa. She wanted to calm down and overcome her fear. The man in front of her could do anything, so she had to stay vigilant!
"Don't worry, let's talk first. But I'm very satisfied with your performance. At least you've gained Professor Bruce's trust.”
"I don't understand. Please explain."
"Two years ago, I sent you to Swansea University as a consultant student. You did a good job, but now that your good days are over, I want you to do something for me.”
"What?" A look of disdain.
"Professor Bruce will go to China soon. I want you to go with him. When the time comes, help me do something. When the thing appears, I will tell you what to do.”
"I'm not going."
"You don't have a choice. Don't bargain with me. You know my temper. If you help me, I won't kill Cyrus or Tamus.”
"Why don't you let your own brother and nephew off? Where is your humanity?" She roared angrily.
"Oh, oh, oh humanity? I'm afraid only commoners like you have it. The Pagoda family did not know what human nature was. Besides, Cyrus is just a bastard child of that damned old man and a lowly commoner from China. How can I treat him as my biological brother? You're too naive! Hahahahaha. However, his appetite was very similar to the old man. They both liked Chinese women.”
"You are a demon who eats bones but doesn't spit out skin.”She looked at him angrily.
"I've already said that I like this title. Speaking of which, you should thank me. Although Cyrus is a second-class earl, I helped you become a countess. You have to know that this position is equivalent to a princess consort in your country. How many people dreamed of it! Why are you so ungrateful?”
"I'm not interested in talking about the past with you.”
"Ha, but I'm very interested today. I'm afraid you still don't understand why an orphan like you became the Countess. I'll tell you today so that you won't be kept in the dark. Ah, where should I start? Let's start from when you appeared in Weiss Castle eight years ago. When you first appeared, I thought you were the daughter of some rich man in China. Your appearance and attire blinded my eyes. The answer I found out was that you have a villa in Guang City under your name. Other information is blank. Cyrus arranged it, of course. He bought the villa. I bet you don't know anything about it.”
He continued,"He did spend a lot of effort to give you a new identity so that you could go to the old castle in Urukstan. The truth is that you're just an orphan girl from a poor mountain village in China. Your father is a fool, your mother is a lunatic, and your brother is normal, but he drowned. So you began your wandering life. Fortunately, you met Cyrus, and this fool actually brought you back. In order for you to become the Countess, she did not hesitate to break her own wings. If he marries a foreign commoner like you, he will have to give up his status as a member of the cabinet. If he gives up this status, he will be nothing. He will no longer be able to compete with me. He will be just an ordinary businessman. Although he still has the status of a second-class earl, that won't cause any more waves! But thanks to you, I also helped him!”
"How do you know all this? How do you know about my family's situation? Why must you force me to marry Cyrus?”Tears gushed out.
"I'm afraid there's nothing I can't find out in this world. I didn't force you, you did it willingly, have you forgotten?”He stood up and made a cup of coffee.
"No!" She denied it with certainty.
"I also know that you and Cyrus have been sleeping in separate rooms for the past three years.”He smiled proudly.
"How do you know everything?" She could not believe it. It was as if he had installed a surveillance camera on her.
"I know too much, and the reason why you don't sleep with Cyrus, only that idiot Cyrus knows, oh, maybe he knows.”She took a sip of coffee.
"What does he know?" she asked urgently.
"The reason why you don't sleep with him." He looked at her with interest.
"What's the reason?"
"What else could it be? Mo Hexuan, CEO of Rensheng Group.”
"How do you know him?" She was so shocked that her eyes were wide open. It would not be surprising if he knew about what happened in Uzbekistan. Perhaps he had spies in the castle. But how did he know about China?
"It's just a coincidence. I met him in a hotel in Egypt many years ago. He held a photo of you in his hand and asked the service desk if he had seen you before. At that time, I thought he must be an idiot. Who would look for someone with a photo? But when I saw that the photo in his hand was of you, I got someone to check it out and found out that he was actually your first love. I'm guessing Cyrus knows about it, and this is the reason you're not sleeping with him, isn't it?”
“....”
"Let's talk about your mission this time. You only need to do one thing and follow Bruce. However, he will be going to China soon. What's more, you will be meeting your first love very soon. I'm afraid you can't tell Cyrus that you're in China, or he'll go crazy. Hahaha, if he knew that you were going to see your old flame, he would probably tie you up and bring you back.”Hahaha.
"Speak clearly."
"The information I got is that your CEO, Mo Hexuan, has asked someone to invite Bruce to China to help with a biomedicine research at his company, so you have to go with him.”
"Why me?" She did not know how to face him after not seeing him for eight years. Perhaps he had already forgotten about her.
"It can only be you, Fang Yan. As far as I know, he's still looking for you. Now is the perfect time for you to go back.”
"I won't go." She turned her head away in frustration.
"I think there's a truth that you'll be interested to know. It's about your brother's death.”
"Fang Jie? How did Fang Jie die?" She knew very well that the person in front of her was not wrong, so he must know the cause of Fang Jie's death. However, she did not know anything. She asked anxiously.
"I told you that you would be interested. There are many truths about you. If you help me do this, I'll tell you everything.”
"Are you threatening me?"
"Of course, wasn't I clear enough? What you need to do now is to listen to me. You see, I have helped you with many things. If you don't want to stay by Cyrus 'side, I will arrange for you to study in England. Although there is a purpose, at least you have been free for two years. Now it is time for you to repay me.”
"Can I go now?" She knew that she was an ant under his feet. She would die miserably if she moved a little. The most important thing was that he used Cyrus and Tamus to threaten her. She also wanted to know the truth of Fang Jie's death. Fang Jie was the eternal pain in her heart! He would not tell her if she did not complete the mission. He could only do as he was told, and Cyrus could not know. Cyrus had already sacrificed too much for her. Three years ago, he was almost shot to death for her. She could not distract him anymore. Even if she didn't love him, she couldn't drag him down! She already had nothing, and she couldn't let Cyrus lose anything. This was her principle, and she would rather die to protect Cyrus.
"Of course."
When Fang Yan returned to the apartment, it was already dark. She stood by the window and looked down at the lake in the distance. She thought of the person who had been in her heart for nine years, and the name she had never mentioned to anyone else. She softly said the words "Mo Hexuan".
It was as if a lifetime had passed since she left him. It had been eight years! When she saw him again, would it be silence or tears? Or she pretended not to care and said softly," How have you been these past few years?
