What do you think?” For the seasoned businesswoman Nangong Bing, in the realm of business, under any circumstance, at any venue, she was there to talk about business and cooperation. The main focus was always on collaboration and development. As for dining and drinking, those trifling details required vigilant eyes. After all, deceitful people are far too common nowadays, particularly in the business world! The market is like a battlefield; one mistake and you lose everything. Always keeping a cool head was essential. How else could she, as the CEO of a multinational corporation, have turned the struggling Tianyu around in just a year without some weight behind her? Moreover, knowing oneself and knowing the enemy ensures victory in every battle. Before the meeting, Nangong Bing had already investigated Sun Tianyang’s character and conduct. To be honest, he belonged to the type that disgusted her. If it hadn’t been for this cooperation project, crucial for the company’s future prospects, Nangong Bing would probably have not even bothered to show up. But as a business person, everything must be based on profit. “Seems like Miss Nangong isn’t going to grant me even this small favor, huh? After all, I have some reputation in Yanjing; if word gets out that Miss Nangong of the Tianyu Group wouldn’t even share a drink with me, it would be a slap in my face! Just think about it, if I, Sun Tianyang, get humiliated, can our business collaboration still go on?” Sun Tianyang had bushy eyebrows and large eyes, a handsome appearance, but his demeanor exuded a dark aura. Looks like this guy insists on me drinking with him? If I don’t comply, this project might indeed fall through. In the instant of a lightning strike, Nangong Bing’s clever brain came up with over a hundred schemes to handle him. But Sun Tianyang was no fledgling, and with a forced laugh, he quickly said, “Miss Nangong, I have a bit of a weakness, I crave face value. I’ve been in the Yanjing circles for many years now. What kind of people haven’t I seen? Who haven’t I dealt with? Actually, I don’t care too much about the ins and outs of business; I just do it for others’ respect. If today, Miss Nangong is unwilling to even share a drink with me, then I really won’t have any face left to continue mixing in the Yanjing circles.” While he spoke, Sun Tianyang suddenly stood up, his demeanor that of a cultured gentleman, his every movement reeking of regal elegance. His fair and handsome face, which could drive women mad, wore a faint smile, looking quite honorable. He said, “This bottle of red wine is a specially ordered Le Pin from Bordeaux, Pomelo, France, bought at a high price. There are only seven thousand bottles produced every year. Though it’s not the top-grade red wine, it still has its own charm. Today I invited Miss Nangong here with two intentions. One, to share this bottle of red wine with Zhonghai City’s number one businesswoman and to discuss our cooperation in depth. Second, to casually discuss Miss Nangong’s experience of braving the business world alone over the years, so I can learn something as a newcomer to the business scene…” No matter how flowery his speech, Nangong Bing remained indifferent. To use up so much insignificant chatter at the dinner table, it was clear there was more to his intentions. If not for the company’s future prospects, Nangong Bing, with her temperament, would have long stood up, apologized, and left. But now that the other party was so obstinate, Nangong Bing finally agreed to share a drink, but decided to get straight to the point afterward. “Since Mr. Sun has already said so much, I wouldn’t want to dampen your spirits. However, I should mention that I’m not a strong drinker and can only manage a little sip. I hope you’ll understand.” Nangong Bing’s eyes finally relaxed from their coldness. “Good! I like the straightforwardness of Miss Nangong. Very refreshing! Here, I’ll drink first to show my respect!” Sun Tianyang picked up his wine glass and drained it in one go. Nangong Bing observed for a moment and then also took a small sip. After Nangong Bing had her sip of the red wine. “Mr. Sun, the wine has been drunk, words have been exchanged, so I presume now we can get down to the main topic?” Nangong Bing’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, her gaze towards Sun Tianyang markedly critical and wary. “Heh, Miss Nangong, why the hurry? There’s always time for business talks; why not start with the dishes first? The table has been meticulously set for Miss Nangong, including a selection of Eastern and Western cuisines…” “I’m sorry, since Young Master Sun didn’t plan to discuss business today, let’s find another time to talk. It’s getting late, so I’ll take my leave now.” Nangong Bing hurried to her feet. But as soon as she stood, two burly bodyguards in black blocked Nangong Bing’s path. In an instant, Nangong Bing became furious, whirling around to demand, “What is the meaning of this, Young Master Sun?” By now, Nangong Bing felt that something was amiss, suddenly a sense of dread arose, realizing she was in big trouble tonight. She had never imagined that Sun Tianyang, a prominent figure from Yanjing, would stoop to such low-intelligence tactics in Zhonghai City! What surprised Nangong Bing even more was that this was Zhonghai City! No matter how arrogant you are, you should be mindful of where you are. “Hehe, it means nothing. I simply want to invite Miss Nangong to stay and spend this wonderful evening with me.” Sun Tianyang’s fox tail was now fully showing, his sinister smile undisguised as he swayed his wine glass, the eerie blood-red wine within it. His already pale face looked even more ghastly now. “This is Zhonghai City. Aren’t you afraid of the consequences of what you’re doing today?” Nangong Bing’s courage was unmatched by ordinary business magnates; her deep, beautiful eyes glared angrily at Sun Tianyang. Her presence was no less than his. “Zhonghai? Hehe, let me enlighten Miss Nangong. We are located in Zhonghai’s coastal area, with the vast sea behind us, and for hundreds of miles around, there is no sign of human habitat. You should have realized this when you came here, Miss Nangong. I don’t think I need to explain further, do I?” “If I want to leave, nobody can stop me!” Suddenly! Nangong Bing’s demeanor grew colder, and her almond-shaped eyes were filled with strong confidence. Even though she was in a disadvantageous position, being a high-ranking individual with overseas experiences since childhood, she was beyond comparison to her peers. However, within moments, Nangong Bing felt her head becoming dizzy and the sensation grew stronger by the second. In less than a few seconds, all strength seemed to drain from her body, even standing became a desire. “You two, get out. I want to properly enjoy this beautiful night with Miss Nangong.” Upon instruction, the two personal bodyguards immediately turned and left without a word. “What… what have you done to me?” Nangong Bing’s eyes were blurred, her cheeks flushed, and she was unable to muster any strength throughout her body. “Hehe, for a woman as smart as you, Miss Nangong, you shouldn’t need me to tell you; you should guess what I’ve done, right?” At that moment, Sun Tianyang’s face was hideous! His eyes, filled with bloodshot veins, resembled a devil that had lost all humanity. The paleness of his face was due to excessive lust, making it as white as paper. “What do you want to do?” Despite being in danger, Nangong Bing still refused to submit, striving to keep herself awake. “Smash!” The sound of breaking glass echoed as Nangong Bing bit her lip, dragging her heavy body, and with all her strength, she smashed a cup of clear water on the table, trying to awaken her blurred consciousness with the water. But Sun Tianyang had already torn off his hideous mask, laughing coldly, “Nangong Bing, ah, Nangong Bing! You finally got yourself into my hands! For over a year, I’ve tried every means to invite you, but you’ve rejected me time and again, leaving me with no dignity. Today, you’re finally caught by me! What do you have to be so high and mighty about! You fucking whore, isn’t that thing between your legs made for men to fuck? Haha, today you fell into my hands, I’m going to see for myself how it feels to play with the so-called number one frigid beauty of Zhonghai’s business scene on a dining table. By that time, Sun Tianyang had already lost all human reason, living under the strict control of his family had twisted his psyche to the extreme; he had fantasized about having Nangong Bing on a dining table, and now his desire was finally fulfilled. “Don’t come any closer! Don’t you come any closer!” Nangong Bing struggled to stay awake, her resolute spirit making her continuously retreat. “Haha! Nangong Bing, oh, Nangong Bing! You look just like a dog right now, don’t you feel so useless? Don’t you feel so helpless? Don’t you just hate me so much that your teeth itch?” Sun Tianyang’s psyche was extremely twisted and perverse, his face looked particularly sinister as he said, “I want to see you helpless, I want to see your hateful attitude towards me! That’s what makes it exciting for me, that’s what makes it comfortable!” “Sun Tianyang! If you dare take one more step towards me, I, Nangong Bing, even in death, will drag you down to hell with me!” As she spoke these words, Nangong Bing was practically grinding her teeth with forced determination. “We’ll see if you have what it takes!” After saying that, Sun Tianyang’s animalistic nature erupted as he pounced towards Nangong Bing’s delicate body, but Nangong Bing was no pushover! Hastily, she grabbed a piece of glass from the table, enduring the agony of her bleeding palm, and fiercely slashed at Sun Tianyang’s neck! “Spurt!” A spray of blood bloomed in an instant. “Ah! S~eaʀᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. You fucking whore!” Feeling the sharp pain in his neck, Sun Tianyang’s ferocity exploded, as he slammed his palm hard onto Nangong Bing’s pretty face! There was a crisp sound! Nangong Bing’s hair became disheveled, blood dripping from her lips. A palm print marked her face clearly! That slap knocked Nangong Bing down, stripping away the last bit of strength from her body. Sun Tianyang pounced on Nangong Bing like a ferocious beast. Fiercely, he started to rip the clothes from Nangong Bing’s body. “Hiss!” Under Nangong Bing’s desperate struggle, the classical long dress she wore was torn open by Sun Tianyang, leaving a large tear! But Nangong Bing’s eyes held a deadly silence. A strong force of defiance enabled her to summon the last ounce of strength in her body, kicking Sun Tianyang away! Then she tried to climb onto the dining table with all her might; even in death, she, Nangong Bing, would die with pride! This was the dignity of a woman! Just as she grasped the knife and fork on the table prepared to end her own life. A stone flew suddenly, at a speed indiscernible to the naked eye, towards Nangong Bing’s wrist! “Clang!” The knife and fork fell from her grasp. To Nangong Bing’s surprise, standing on the window of the room was a man clad in tight black clothes, his face masked with a bronze mask! Sun Tianyang abruptly turned his head to look, and was immediately stunned! This was the height of a villa’s fourth floor! How on earth did this guy get in!
