He Was Fu Zhiyan

Han Xiaoye ran as fast as she could, ignoring the nagging pain between her legs caused by her period. She hailed a taxi. She was afraid that Fu Zhiyan and the police officers would find out, so she instructed the taxi to circle around a few times before she got out of the car not far from her home.

The cold wind of March was bone-chilling, and it felt like running naked in the open. Just as Han Xiaoye arrived home and was about to push the door open, she heard the sound of shattering coming from inside.

Her eyebrows furrowed, and she was about to rush in when she heard her aunt's voice, "Stop smashing things! We'll repay the money, we promise to repay it!"

Repay the money? Were those people back again?

Han Xiaoye's hand, ready to push the door, paused, and her frown deepened. Didn't they agree to a few months grace period?

"Huh! Han Chengguo, you owe our boss thirty million. Why should I believe that you'll repay it?" The person speaking had a fierce voice, and just by listening, one could imagine his appearance. "I heard that you have a daughter who just started college. How about letting her work at our place?"

"No..."

There was another round of smashing sounds in the room, accompanied by her aunt's sharp cries. Han Xiaoye couldn't bear to listen any longer and was about to rush in to rescue them...

"Stop it! I... I have another niece who just turned 18 today. She looks good and... she's also a... young chick. Brother Nie, how about her?"

Han Xiaoye's blood turned cold, and she stared in disbelief, unable to trust her own ears!

Her uncle... was planning to sell her?

"Yes, yes, yes! We have Xiaoye. Remember Fu Xuanji? That popular actress from back then. That's her mother. She looks exactly like Fu Xuanji, definitely more beautiful than our Susu."

Even my aunt...

She clenched her fists tightly, trying to control the overwhelming despair and trembling.

"Hmph, if the old man Fu in the hospital knows that you're so eager to sell his granddaughter, I wonder if he'll crawl out of the intensive care unit in anger."

Grandpa!

"Bang!"

Han Xiaoye stumbled, accidentally hitting the door.

"Who is it?" The people inside heard the noise and footsteps approached.

The door suddenly opened, and a pale-faced Han Xiaoye appeared before everyone. Han Chengguo and Liu Man, who were pressed down by those men, panicked when they saw Han Xiaoye.

"Xiaoye, why did you come back? How... how long have you been back?"

Han Xiaoye's lips, devoid of color, moved, and she stared at Liu Man and Han Chengguo. "Since you discussed selling me."

Her mother, Han Xuanji, passed away unexpectedly when Han Xiaoye was fifteen. Her biological father accused her of killing her mother and refused to raise her, claiming she brought bad luck. Her grandfather spent money to let her stay with her uncle's family. However, her uncle, Han Chengguo, was a person with big ambitions but limited capabilities. Seeing his older brother, Han Xiaoye's father, become wealthy in the construction business, he followed suit and started a building materials business. However, due to his incompetence, he was swindled and ended up owing a high-interest debt of five million. As the debts grew larger, he set his sights on underground gambling dens. Unexpectedly, he lost thirty million overnight. This infuriated her grandfather to the point of being hospitalized.

The loan sharks relentlessly pursued him, threatening to cut off his fingers. Rui City's underworld had deep roots, and she was in a panic. Coincidentally, the news on TV was about Fu Zhiyan's return to the country, and she had a bold idea... to borrow Fu Zhiyan's influence to deal with the loan sharks, which led to the absurd events of last night.

To her surprise, she had gotten involved with the wrong people for the sake of her uncle, who was now considering how to sell her at a good price.

How ridiculous!

Han Xiaoye bitterly curled her lips, trying to smile, but she found that she couldn't.

She noticed several men with a rough appearance sitting on the sofa in the living room. Her cousin Han Susu seemed to have disappeared, leaving only her uncle and aunt there, wearing forced smiles.

"Is she the one?"

The leading man looked at Han Xiaoye with a disdainful gaze, treating her like merchandise.

"She looks decent, but her figure is a bit lacking."

Liu Man smiled flatteringly, "Xiaoye is still young, only eighteen. Her figure hasn't fully developed yet. Her mother used to be a beauty, ah, not to boast, but there aren't many people in Rui City who can compare to her."

Liu Man beckoned to her, "Xiaoye, come over and say hello to these gentlemen. This is Brother Nie, Brother Hu, Brother Yang..."

Liu Man introduced a long list of names, but Han Xiaoye looked at her coldly, "What's the point of saying hello? Auntie, do you think I'm a fool?"

Seeing that she was being disrespectful, Liu Man was about to get angry, but considering that they still needed this bratty girl to repay the debt, she suppressed her anger and covered her mouth, laughing, "You have a stubborn temper, Xiaoye. Ah, don't misunderstand, your uncle and I aren't trying to sell you. We just found a good job for you."

"If that's the case, why don't you let Sister Susu go?"

The Longteng Club was notorious in Rui City for its shady dealings. Everyone knew what went on inside. It was clearly a trap, yet Liu Man had the audacity to praise it.

Upon hearing her words, Liu Man couldn't hold back anymore and started to scold in a sharp and sarcastic tone, "Xiaoye, how dare you speak like that? Are your own aunt and uncle capable of harming you? These years, I've been taking care of you every day. You should speak with a conscience!"

"Hmph." Han Xiaoye suppressed her anger and sneered, "Don't think I don't know that you've been asking Grandfather for money all these years, using the excuse of my living expenses. If we talk about who raised me, it's Grandfather!"

"You ungrateful wretch! I've raised you for nothing!" Liu Man saw that Han Xiaoye was unwilling to corporate. She couldn't stand it anymore and started to throw a tantrum. While crying, she even hit Han Chengguo next to her, "Han, take a good look. This is the niece you always fought for! You've always been reluctant to use nice things just for saving money to support her. Now what did you get? She doesn't even appreciate it. You despicable scum! If your Han family gets into trouble because of your own mess, don't drag my precious Susu into it! You..."

"Enough!"

Han Xiaoye walked over and took out the hidden contract from her bag, slapping it on the table. She stubbornly tightened her lips and spoke in a calm tone. She looked at the group of men with unfriendly expressions, trying to appear more confident.

"Weren't we supposed to settle the debt three months later? You people don't keep your word. Do you think our family has no one to rely on? Before you act inappropriately, take a look at this first!"

Liu Man squeezed her way in to take a look, and when she saw Fu Zhiyan's seal, her eyes widened. "This is..."

Fu Zhiyan was the noblest, the most elegant, the most temperamental, the most merciful, and intimidating man! He was the most terrifying young master in Rui City!

He was also famous for being a man who hated women.

"No, this can't be." Liu Man couldn't help but scream, "How could you have any involvement with Fu Zhiyan?"
