I was freezing when Davis found me.When I ran out of the house, I was only wearing a sweater.

He held my face in his warm hands and made me look up. The streetlights on the street corner could only cast a vague shadow here, but he could still see my appearance clearly.

He asked incredulously, "Did he hit you?"

I wanted to speak, but after I loosened my clenched teeth, I couldn't utter a single word except for the sound of teeth chattering.

I know that my face must be very colorful and wonderful, that's why I would rather suffer from the cold here than go to KFC for heating.No matter how poor I am, I don't want to be ashamed in the public.

He took off his down jacket and put it on me, and helped me to walk out of the alley, but I couldn't move my legs. He glanced at me, bent down, and hugged me horizontally.

I curled up in his arms, feeling his muscles tense.He carried me into the car, put me in the passenger seat, and said, "I'll take you to the hospital."

The heater in the car gave me a little refreshment, and I shook my head slightly.

"Help me...open a room...will you?"

He looked at me, touched my cold forehead, and sighed.

I huddled in the seat and closed my eyes.

A tear slid down from the corner of his eye.

Davis said: "Cry if you want to cry, it will feel better when you cry."

I didn't speak, and I didn't let myself cry.Tears have no effect at this time except to show one's own patheticness.After a while, I suddenly remembered something and opened my eyes: "I don't have any money...money and mobile phone...all were taken away."

He froze for a moment: "Have you encountered a robber?"

I nodded.

He asked again: "Then the wound on your face..."

"Those people who were robbed... were slapped a few times."

Davis slammed his fist on the steering wheel: "What the hell is this?!"

I smiled bitterly and closed my eyes again.

I am also depressed, how can people be so unlucky as me.

Even if he was exhausted both physically and mentally, he couldn't fall asleep with his eyes closed, his mind was full of the quarrel with Yan Minglang a few hours ago.

That was the only real quarrel between us, and it will probably be the last.

When he rushed home, the first thing he said was to question me sharply: "You are still entangled with Chen Jin? What do you take my words for?!"

I have never seen him so irritable. In the past, even if he reprimanded me, he was always able to do a job with ease, giving orders from above.

I looked at him coldly, without any expression on my face: "Since I'm 'Chen Jin's friend', shouldn't I be entangled with you?"

His face was frighteningly gloomy for a moment.

Even though I was ready to go all out and plan to have a good fight with him, but he has been gaining power for a long time, I subconsciously turned my face away.

Yan Minglang pinched my cheek and turned my face back abruptly.

He leaned over and moved closer to my face, his fingers rough on my lips.

"Did you let him touch you here?"

The Yan Minglang in front of him was strange and frightening.

He knew Chen Jin's feelings for me from the very beginning, but at that time he just took it as a joke to tease me.For the first time, I actually felt his anger.

Maybe it was to get revenge on his "Chen Jin's friend", maybe it was to vent the resentment that love can't get, maybe it was because he chose to trust Lu Chen and not me, which really hurt my heart and accumulated too much resentment. My head has already been heavily focused without thinking about it.

I even raised the corners of my mouth provocatively.

His pupils constricted at that moment, but before I had time to savor the pleasure of revenge, I was pushed away by him with a heavy wave of his hand.

He turned his back to me, his chest heaving violently.

My back hit the wall, and the pain made me almost pass out, but I didn't even blink my eyes, and even though it hurt, I still kept my back straight.

It only took a few minutes, Yan Minglang quickly recovered his breathing, stood silently for a while, walked to the locked bookcase, and took out a bunch of things.

I saw my passport, and proof of our spouse relationship.

He picked up the certificate in duplicate, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.He raised his eyes, looked at me, and said, "This kind of thing has no legal effect in country Z."

After speaking, he held the two pieces of paper with both hands and slowly tore them apart from the middle.

I raised my foot subconsciously, but only the heel was off the ground. After a while, I regained my footing and watched him numbly tearing the two pieces of paper into strips.

Then he produced a stack of papers.

That was the contract his grandfather signed with him.This is the first time I have seen this contract.

"I had an agreement with your grandfather. As long as you don't betray our marriage, even if I take the initiative to let you go one day, the 6000 million Australian dollars I gave you can be written off," the smile on his face froze, and then he said sharply. Looking at me, "Unfortunately, you fouled, Shaw."

I looked at him coldly without saying a word.

He flipped through the stack of documents casually, about seven or eight, and he looked at them for a long time.Then he took the lighter out of his pocket.

The stack of documents burned, and he threw it on the floor casually. 6000 million Australian dollars, just turned into ashes.

I've never understood our gap better than I do now.

I look at him and he looks at me.

He curled up his lips viciously.

"These 6000 million, just treat it as this year's prostitution. Don't you think [-] is too little? It's just, Shaw, you're not worth the price, you know?"

Heart-piercing pain is nothing more than that.

The nails dug deep into the flesh, but I smiled softly amidst the pain that was everywhere from the inside out.

"Thank you, boss."

My smile seemed to pierce his eyes, his cold gaze fell on my face, and after a while, he whispered, "Get out."

I nodded, took off the ring on my finger and the watch he gave me one by one, put them on his desk, then turned around, walked to the door unhurriedly, opened it and walked out .

It wasn't until tears froze on my eyelashes and cheeks that I suddenly realized that I had walked out of the house.With nowhere to go, all I had on me were a few bills in my pants pocket and a cell phone.

However, half an hour later, the little property I had on me was also searched, and I was even slapped several times because I brought too little money.

Fortunately, it was too cold in winter, so they didn't have the leisure to beat me up.

When passers-by in Liao Liao saw me in despair, they all walked away until they met a kind old man who said he would call the police for me.I declined her offer and asked her to make a phone call to Davis for me.Luckily, I still remember Davis' number.

Then I was in the alley and waited until he came to me.

Instead of taking me to a hotel, Davis took me to a community.

I looked at him uneasily, and he comforted me: "Don't worry, it's not my house, it's my friend's house. He went abroad as an exchange student last year, and the house has been vacant."

I nodded, relieved.

I don't want Paul to see me like this.

Davis still carried me upstairs. Although no one has lived in this house for a long time, it has water and electricity. Davis turned on all the air conditioners, put a tub of hot water on for me, and asked me worriedly: "Do you really need my help?"

I sat on the edge of the tub leaning against the wall, shook my head, and said, "Thanks, I can."

He didn't insist, opened the door and walked out.

When the hands and feet were in the car, they had regained consciousness, but they seemed to be frostbitten, and they were still shaking uncontrollably.I finally took off my clothes and lay down in the bathtub.

The warm water covered my neck, and I felt like I couldn't breathe. Looking at the swaying water, I slowly slid down as if possessed.

The water flooded my nasal cavity, I closed my eyes and stopped moving.

I don't know how long it took before my stomach suddenly seemed to be slapped hard by someone. The slight pain brought back my rationality. I sat up abruptly. I just took a breath, but because of exhaustion, I fell into the water again. .

I struggled in the water like someone who accidentally drowned until a pair of hands lifted me out of the water.

I grabbed Davis' clothes, breathing heavily, coughing up tears.

He patted me on the back, sighed, wrapped me in a big towel, and carried me out of the bathroom.

He put me on the bed, helped me get dressed, and covered me with a thick quilt.

"Go to sleep," he said, "There is nothing difficult to deal with. If there is anything, we will talk about it tomorrow."

I know, he has been sitting next to me.Later, I actually fell asleep, and even had no dreams all night.

When I woke up I felt much better, except that my face was still swollen to the touch, and I didn't have a fever or headache, so I was lucky.

Davis wasn't in the room, I walked out of the bedroom and saw him sitting on the sofa in the living room talking to someone on the phone.

He saw me and stood up: "Are you all right?"

I nodded and smiled at him.

"Aren't you going to class?"

"There are only elective courses today. I just asked my classmates to sign in for me. It's okay." He paused and asked, "Shaw, what happened to you and Mr. Yan?"

"It's just a breakup."

He let out an "ah" and looked at me blankly, probably not quite understanding why I was so calm.

"Davis, please don't tell anyone about this for now, I want to be alone for a while."

He nodded knowingly: "If you have no place to go, you can live here first. The bookstore and school..."

"The bookstore was bought by Yan Minglang. I won't go there again. He will handle it himself. The school's class for this semester is almost over. Let Paul ask for a leave of absence for me. If Paul asks, you can tell him Let's go on a trip."

Davis agreed.

After a while, he asked me again: "Where is Chen Jin? Don't you tell him?"

"Do not."

"... I wish he had been..."

"Davis." I cut him off.

He sighed helplessly.

Looking back now, he should have known that Chen Jin liked me earlier than me.But at this time, I can't see Chen Jin.

This is a matter between me and Yan Minglang, I don't want to involve him.

I just stayed at Davis's friend's house. The owner was very generous and let me stay as long as I wanted, so I just took it as looking after the house for him.

Later Davis told me that people from the Yan family had looked for me.They knew that the school was a leave of absence from Paul, but Paul kept insisting that I was going on a trip, and it was only because of this that he began to worry about me.

The Yan family also approached Davis. Of course, Davis and Paul said the same thing, but he came back and asked me if he wanted to talk to Yan Minglang again.

After all, he didn't know that the quarrel between Yan Minglang and I had reached an irreversible point.

There is nothing more to talk about.Yan Minglang personally made the verdict.

But I will pay him back the 6000 million Australian dollars slowly. Even if it is not finished, as long as I can earn a penny, I will pay him back a penny.

I didn't intend to escape anything, I just didn't want to meet him for the time being.It never even occurred to me to leave the city, after all I had to pay him back.

I had even planned my life alone, until a sudden accident overturned all my plans.
