She struggled to sit up and showed the cheque to him. He Ming En was written in large calligraphy at the bottom of the cheque. His handwriting was always very good, clean, without a trace of sloppiness, and he was as dashing as himself.

However, the three words that she'd once enjoyed the most had now become her nightmare.

After putting on his clothes, Xia Ruoyun walked in front of the mirror. Looking at her haggard appearance, and the kiss mark on her neck that could not be hidden, she felt a chill in her heart.

How did she and He Mingen become like this today?

In the past, although He Mingen didn't really like her, at least he wouldn't be as disgusted as he was now.

Like a shadow, she could still peacefully follow behind him. But now, even having a good talk with him had become an extravagant hope.

After washing up, Xia Ruoyun took the cheque to the bank. Only after seeing that the fifty million yuan was transferred into the Xia Corporation's account did she finally heave a sigh of relief.

Although she didn't understand why He Mingen would mercifully give her 50 million, as long as she could see that the Xia Corporation was in danger, she didn't care about anything else.

Perhaps it was because she hadn't eaten breakfast, but when she walked out of the bank and saw the bright sun, she felt weak all over and lost her balance, almost falling to the ground.

"Xia Xia!"

Hearing the familiar voice, she couldn't help but raise her head and look forward.

What caught his eye was an exceptionally handsome face that was even more beautiful than a woman.

Amongst all the men that Xia Rui had met, He Mingen was the most handsome and extraordinary one. It was just that his appearance was too cold, making others want to avoid him.

As for the man in front of him, he was the complete opposite of He Mingen.

A pair of slender almond-shaped eyes and a handsome chin, a handsome nose, and a pair of slender red phoenix eyes made the outline of her body soften a bit.

The past was like a movie being played in reverse as scenes played in her mind. She hesitated for a moment before she asked, "Ziheng?"

Lin Ziheng nodded and smiled at her. "Long time no see. I didn't expect you to still remember me."

Xia Jing lowered his head and smiled, "How could I forget about you? Back then, you were one of the most famous figures in the school, a famous school grass. Which girl didn't like you?"

"Is that so? What about you? Do you like me, too? "

Xia Ruoyun was slightly startled, suddenly, she was speechless.

Lin Ziheng could not help but let out a laugh when he saw Xia Ruoyun's shocked expression, "Why are you so nervous? Don't tell me that you have really liked me before?"

Only then did she know that Lin Ziheng was only joking around with her. After living under the shadow of He Mingen for so long, she was like a frightened bird.

She gave a perfunctory smile and randomly picked a topic, "Didn't you go to America? Why did you come back?"

The corner of Lin Ziheng's lips slightly raised as he stared at her without blinking, "Because, this is the item that I want to obtain."

Xia Ruoyun avoided his burning gaze and wanted to say her goodbyes in embarrassment, but Lin Ziheng didn't give her the chance to escape. He directly grabbed her shoulder.

"I see that you are pale because of hypoglycemia. "Come, let's go have lunch together."

She was silent, and was still thinking of an excuse to reject him when Lin Ziheng walked to the side, opened the car door and waved at her.

"Don't tell me you're not going to give me face if we don't meet like this? Besides, I'm a doctor, so you have to listen to him. "

No matter how much Xia Rui wanted to refuse, she could not open her mouth.

Ye Zichen smiled at him politely, while Xia Rui sat on the car door that Ye Zichen opened.

The two of them were old acquaintances, so they didn't feel awkward chatting about their past.

When he arrived at the dining hall, it was already 12 in the afternoon. It was the time when the dining hall was at its peak. However, the number of guests in this restaurant was still very few.

Xia Jing didn't like the liveliness, so the silence was just what she wanted.

As the waiter led the two of them in, Xia Rui saw a familiar figure by the window.
