They're Courting Death Even If They're Not Worthy

They're Courting Death Even If They're Not Worthy

Shen Yicheng watched as Tang Yi went upstairs and the lights in the room lit up before he got out of the car.

He hugged his arms and leaned against the front of the car, looking up at the stars in the sky.

The night sky was very bright tonight, and the sparkling stars filled the entire starry sky.

Shen Yicheng spent five years trying to figure out why Tang Yi insisted on breaking up with him. Their love was clearly agreed upon by both parents…but what went wrong?

Suddenly, Shen Yicheng's phone vibrated.

[Young Master Shen, your suit has been fished up. It has been tidied up and placed in your room. Do you want to wash it yourself or do you want us to help you wash it?]

[I'll do it myself when I get back. Don't worry about it. Also, no one is allowed to enter my room. Keep an eye on it.]

After replying to this message, Shen Yicheng stuffed his phone into his pocket. Unexpectedly, his phone vibrated and rang again. The ringtone of the video was the street dance Tang Yi performed when she became famous.

The call was from Lu Chuan, the little CEO of Starlight Entertainment, Shen Yicheng's good buddy. The two of them had known each other since junior high school, and the two families were family friends.

Ever since Tang Yi and Shen Yicheng broke up, the relationship between Tang Yi and Lu Chuan had also faded. Lu Chuan was also the boss of Tang Yi's company. If he had good resources, the first person Lu Chuan would think of was Tang Yi, but Tang Yi did not appreciate it at all.

Lu Chuan was a man who indulged in debauchery. He was adept at all kinds of colorful occasions. He had a serious hobby-meddling in other people's business. He had been in love for 13 years and had yet to have a girlfriend.

Lu Chuan,[Where are my brothers?] It's not easy for you to show up in public. Aren't you going to come out and take a look?]

Shen Yicheng,[Where are you?] With whom?]

Lu Chuan replied,[I've sent the address of Nan Zhi Bar in Joy City. Just follow the GPS.]

Lu Chuan replied,[Just a few of my high school classmates and some friends I play with often.]

Shen Yicheng replied,[Okay, wait for me at the main entrance in ten minutes.]

Shen Yicheng,"Oh, right, you…Forget it, I'm going to drive. I'm hanging up."

Shen Yicheng sighed and swallowed the questions he wanted to ask as the image of that person appeared in his mind.

He was no longer a bootlicker.

After staring at Tang Yi's apartment for a while longer, Shen Yicheng reluctantly left.

Similarly, Tang Yi, who was upstairs, was in a very anxious mood.

She was nestled in the corner of the sofa, holding a Doraemon doll in her arms. Pleasant Goat was playing on the television, and all the lights in the room were turned on, making it bright.

When she saw the trending search in the afternoon, Tang Yi's mood was a little off. At night, she faced the person in the trending search for a few hours, and she couldn't describe her sadness.

Just as Tang Yi was lost in her thoughts, the phone on the coffee table vibrated.

Tang Yi,[What? Lu Chuan.]

Lu Chuan,[Why are you so arrogant?] Who provoked our Lil Tang? Tell me, and I'll avenge you.]

Tang Yi: [Come on, you can't even beat me, yet you're helping me take revenge? You must be joking.]

Lu Chuan,"F * ck!" Tang Yi, you can f * cking brag, but you should have some idea of your own strength! I can't beat you, so I'm your grandson!]

Tang Yi,[What? Do you mean you want to fight me? Have you forgotten that I have a black belt in Taekwondo?]

Lu Chuan replied,[I have the Almighty here. I'm not afraid of you!] Lu Chuan's lips curled into a sly smile.

Tang Yi,[Give me the location and I'll come over to find you.]

Perhaps the fear and excitement had numbed her nerves, but Tang Yi quickly went to the bedroom to change into a set of especially spicy clothes and went out.

There were still reporters guarding the entrance, but Tang Yi walked out of the neighborhood without any disguise. She hailed a taxi and got in.

After this winter, Tang Yi would announce her retirement from the entertainment industry. Now that he had earned enough money, it was time for this boring and boring life to end. It was time for him to live his own life.

When they arrived at the seat that Lu Chuan had given them, Tang Yi gave him a call and Lu Chuan came down to pick her up.

"Why are you so slow!" Tang Yi said helplessly as her palm landed on Lu Chuan's shoulder.

Instinctively, Lu Chuan covered his arm and said," Tang Yi, you know that your slap is very important. Why are you still using so much force? Hurry up and support me."

Tang Yi gave a fake smile." Brother Chuan, are you sure?"

Lu Chuan's entire body went numb." Alright, I really can't beat you." Hurry up and go up. We won't go home until we're drunk tonight!"

In the elevator, Lu Chuan leaned against the wall like a hooligan. He raised his eyebrows and asked," Did you see Cheng today?"

Hearing this, Tang Yi narrowed her eyes and slowly glanced at Lu Chuan. Her tone was serious and cold." Don't you know it yourself?" Didn't you ask your manager to trick me into going? What's there to pretend about? You're my boss. You know my whereabouts very well. There's no need to pretend to be so stupid."

Lu Chuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry." Xiaoyi, don't say that. Give this bro some face." Speaking of which, did your heart skip a beat when you saw Cheng today? You haven't contacted each other for five years. You should still be very young when you meet, right?"

"..." Tang Yi didn't want to answer, so she lowered her head to look at her phone.

Lu Chuan didn't feel embarrassed. He waved his hand and said to himself," Damn it, in the past five years, Ah Cheng has been in contact with everyone except you. I don't know what he's thinking. He's clearly so..."

At this point, Lu Chuan stopped and looked at Tang Yi.

She was calm and emotionless. She kept flipping through her phone, but…she didn't open any app.

Lu Chuan, Shen Yicheng, and Tang Yi were very close when they were young. They were almost inseparable. Apart from being two years younger than Shen Yicheng and Lu Chuan, there was also a huge difference in their family background.

Tang Yi came from a family of her own. Her father abused her, and her mother was forced to get a divorce. She brought Tang Yi to live in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. Shen Yicheng and Lu Chuan came from prominent families with powerful backgrounds. Just their living conditions alone were a big difference.

As the elevator's " ding " sounded, Lu Chuan's thoughts were pulled back. He held Tang Yi's arm and said," Forget it. Let's not talk about it. Let's go in."

"Yes."

As soon as the door opened, a strong smell of alcohol mixed with the smell of cigarettes assailed his nose.

Deafening music broke the sky.

Colorful lights flashed across everyone's faces.

Chatting sounds filled every corner.

Subconsciously, Tang Yi furrowed her brows. As Lu Chuan pushed her into the room, she gradually got used to the environment, and her brows slowly relaxed.

"Tang Yi, you're here."

"F * ck! Sister Yi is really dressed up today!"

"Yes, yes, it's most suitable for pole dancing."

" Xiao Yi, you can go all out today. Anyway, the boss is Lu Chuan. We're not afraid. We have him to protect us!"

"Hahahaha, yes, yes!"

“……”

"Enough!" "If you dare to talk to my Sister Yi like that again, I won't go easy on you," said Lu Chuan with a smile.

"Tsk, I know! We don't dare to provoke Tang Yi, and Tang Yi won't let anyone provoke her! Because I can't afford to offend you, hahaha!"

"Get lost, go drink your wine!"

" Come, Xiaoyi, sit here. I'll pour you a glass of wine to drink first. We're waiting for someone else."

"Yes."

Little did they know that just as Lu Chuan and Tang Yi stepped into the elevator, Shen Yicheng walked in from the main door.

When he saw Tang Yi, Shen Yicheng's lips curled into a smile.

She was dressed very nicely tonight.

When Shen Yicheng arrived at the door of the private room and heard the people inside talking about pole dancing, he was very angry again.

She was dressed too ugly-looking today!

At the same time, he really wanted to find a gunny sack to put Tang Yi inside so that only her head would be exposed.

Because her beauty did not need other men to evaluate her.

They were courting death even if they were not worthy!

Shen Yicheng adjusted his breathing at the door and pushed it open.

Lu Chuan was the first to greet Shen Yicheng with a smile.

As their con deepens, she must confront the ultimate question: Can she open her heart to love and trust again? ****Exerpt**** Delilah’s eyes darted to the marriage certificate again, the official seal glaring back at her. Her fingers itched to tear it apart, to make this nightmare disappear. But deep down, she knew that wouldn’t change anything. “I don’t remember,” she whispered, more to herself than to him. “I don’t remember any of it.” Blake nodded as if he had expected this reaction. “That is expected. You had a lot to drink last night.” he fished out a phone from the back pocket of his trousers, opened it. “Here, this is us celebrating, after we got married last night,” he said, showing her a picture. Delilah’s breath caught in her throat as she stared at the photo. It was indeed her. “How?” she whispered, her voice barely audible. “I don’t remember any of this.” “It was a wild night,” he said softly. Perhaps she had married Blake because he was wealthy. That would be the only logical reason for her to make such a blunder. There was hope, she thought, as she clung to the possibility of salvaging something from this disaster. Turning to him, she forced a smile, “Is this your house? Are we in your house?” She asked, looking around the bedroom. Blake shook his head, “No. This is a hotel,” he said, and she nodded. “I see. It looks like quite an expensive hotel,” she observed, “What do you do for a living?” she asked, trying to keep her voice steady as she searched his eyes for any hint of affluence. Blake hesitated, his confident demeanor faltering for the first time. He looked away, rubbing the back of his neck. “I’m... in between jobs,” he stuttered, avoiding her gaze. Delilah’s heart sank, disappointment crashing over her like a wave. “In between jobs?” she echoed, her voice tinged with disbelief. Blake seemed to sense her dismay. “I know it doesn’t sound great,” he said quickly, trying to reassure her. “But I’m working on a few things. I just need a little more time.” “You’re jobless,” she muttered to herself as reality sunk in. “How did you pay for this room? For the wedding bands?” She asked, and he winced. “I didn’t. You did,” he said, and she collapsed on the bed. (PS: Cover photo isn’t mine. Credit to the real owner)
