Chapter 17: Do You Want to Register with Me? (1)

She lives with the two people closest to her. One is her mother, and the other is her best and only friend.

They both are so heartless, leaving her alone.

Originally, she intended to go and talk to them. However, Autumn Ling didn't do so. She knew they couldn't hear what she said, but she still only told them good things, not wanting them to worry in heaven.

She just sat there blankly in the car, staring into space, lost in her own world. She sat like this for hours, until the cemetery staff tapped on her car door to remind her. She snapped out of her reverie.

It turned out the sky had already darkened, and the parking lot only had her lonely car left.

At this point, her only choice was to drive back home, to her own little nest, a place where she could avoid all disturbances.

"I'm back."

As she opened the door, she heard a low, amused male voice.

Autumn Ling was almost scared silly. She never dreamed that when she opened the door, there would be a man sitting in her house, let alone a man as handsome as a demon.

The man crossed his legs, smiling with a hint of mischief, emitting a charming aristocratic aura from head to toe.

She regretted saying that as soon as the words left her mouth. He was Shang Xufeng, the arrogant playboy second generation. Laws were mere decorations for him.

"Feng, you're kidding, right? We both know last night was just an act."

"Kidding? Act?" He toyed with the ring on his finger, smiling elegantly and charmingly. "Miss Autumn, you're still wearing our wedding ring. Do you want to deny our relationship?"

It was only then that Autumn Ling remembered she wanted to take it off while bathing last night, but she hesitated because she was afraid of losing it.

"I'll give it back to you now." Autumn Ling took off the ring and threw it to him.

Shang Xufeng caught it and casually played with it. "The things this young master gives away can't be taken back, especially not in front of so many witnesses."

"What exactly do you want?" Autumn Ling was getting frustrated. What did this man want by coming to her house so late at night?

"Your scent has captivated me," he answered, evading her question. His face bore a charming smile, but his eyes held a dangerous yet captivating gaze.

"Shameless!" she cursed silently, managing to force a smile on her face. "If there's nothing else, could you please leav
