Qiao Anlu struggled... but there was no way she could struggle!

She turned her head and asked in a choked voice, "Can you give me a hand?"

That soft, whimpering sound was as pitiful as a little puppy.

When Ning Zesheng reached out to her, she shrank back in fright again. "You’re not going to throw me out the window, are you?"

She really couldn’t take a scare. Who knew where the courage to fight Lin Ji Yang earlier had come from!

Ning Zesheng directly hauled her up!

"Aaaahhh!" Her miserable scream rang through the whole house.

Qiao Anlu’s body stayed stiff as a board the entire time. Forget about sitting in the car!

Ning Zesheng drove off without a backward glance. Only after he was far away did she finally curse under her breath, "Ning Zesheng, you bastard!"

Right after cursing, she even felt a little spooked, afraid someone might hear.

Ning Zesheng saw her little performance in the rearview mirror and found it a bit funny. He picked up the phone and said to Ada, "Come to the villa by the river and take Qiao Anlu back."

"Huh?!" Ada hadn’t even reacted yet when the call on the other side was already hung up.

Well, this was rare!

He actually called her himself!

Qiao Anlu? He was actually interested in Qiao Anlu now?

Did he forget he had the number-one socialite, Gu Xiyao, as his fiancée?!

But when Ada drove over and saw Qiao Anlu, she completely dismissed that thought.

"G—gently... aaahhh!"

Ada felt she was already being extremely gentle helping her up. It took everything she had to finally get her into the passenger seat before she could breathe a sigh of relief.

"How did you end up coming to his place with Mr. Ning?" Ada asked as she drove. "I only just found out he lives here."

"How would I know? If I’d known, I wouldn’t have come even if it killed me. Do you know he almost threw me out the upstairs window yesterday?" Qiao Anlu was so aggrieved it was ridiculous.

Ada glanced at her current tragic state. It was exactly the same as when Ning Zesheng had been helped away by his secretary that day—only Ning Zesheng had been even worse!

"How did you end up like this?" Ada couldn’t help asking.

"He tied me up and threw me on the floor to sleep all night. I was freezing to death! Lucky I’ve got a sturdy body or I’d be sick by now!"

Her body really was sturdy. She was still lively even now!

Unlike... Ning Zesheng that day!

Ada suddenly remembered there were no carpets in the villa’s rooms. Could it be that Ning Zesheng had lain on that icy floor the whole night, so now he was just giving her a taste of her own medicine?

"That day at the villa party, what exactly did you do after barging into Ning Zesheng’s room?"

"I already said it was an empty room I barged into. I didn’t do anything." Heaven and earth could testify!

Ada mechanically nodded. Could this girl have made Ning Zesheng sleep on the floor all night while she slept in the bed, and she herself didn’t even realize?

Otherwise, with Ning Zesheng’s personality, why would he suddenly fixate on someone?

It was just that... 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Now Ada very much believed that back in the day, when he tossed the junior who confessed to him into the swimming pool and almost drowned her—that had been real!

No wonder even his secretary didn’t dare get too close to this man. He really was... vengeful to the extreme, completely ignoring any social niceties!

"You must never tell anyone about this. Today... you’re allowed to take a day off from training!"

"I wouldn’t go even if you made me today!" Just talking made Qiao Anlu’s whole body hurt. "And I’ll never spill a word even if it kills me!"

Who knew if Ning Zesheng might suddenly, inexplicably think up some new way to torment her?

Why was she so damn unlucky!
