It suddenly began to drizzle outside. Summer was a rainy season, so it didn't matter if it was raining.

A torrential downpour continuously lapped at the window. She watched as the water fell onto the bamboo leaves, dripping onto the ground and becoming submerged in the water. Gu Ruoyun stood here, watching and thinking, naked.

As time passed, she stood there for half an hour. She felt her feet go numb, and her feet were pierced by a sharp stone. It was difficult for her to take a single step.

Gu Ruoyun turned around and looked at the contract on the bedside. She walked back with difficulty and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at each contract carefully.

"What a freak." Gu Ruoyun couldn't help muttering to herself, this was simply an unequal treaty. Every single one of them was beneficial to him, and she was just one of his playthings.

The whole contract only said so much to make her his woman, to make her his mistress. As long as he needed her, she had to serve him. Of course, he could fulfill three of her conditions.

Did he use such a method to lure her into revealing her identity? If she saved Bi Xue, she would undoubtedly be formally explaining her identity to him. This was the place that Gu Ruoyun hesitated the most.

However, if she didn't sign, she might not even have a way out. Gu Ruoyun thought for a long time before she picked up the pen and signed her name on it.

If something happened to her, it wouldn't be scary, but she didn't want anything to happen to people she grew up with.

"Miss Gu, this is your dinner." At this moment, Zhang Yilan opened the door and walked in with some food.

Gu Ruoyun quickly pulled over her blanket to cover her body. Zhang Yiran seemed to be used to seeing this, so she didn't have any surprises. She just brought the dishes up and placed them on the table beside the bed, helping Gu Ruoyun set them up one by one.

"Give this to him." Gu Ruoyun handed the contract over to Zhang Yiping, who read the two words' contract 'and seemed to understand what was going on.

"Alright, then Miss Gu, you eat first." She smiled softly and left the room.

Gu Ruoyun looked at the dishes and didn't have the slightest appetite. She just picked up the orange juice beside her and drank a few mouthfuls, then sat back down on the bed.

The afternoon soon passed, and the rain outside the window had stopped. Darkness enveloped the land. Gu Ruoyun didn't turn on the light. She lay quietly on the bed, thinking about many things.

From the start till now, she felt like she was dreaming. It was a very scary dream. She had stayed by Leng Lian City's side and he was the beginning of her nightmare.

In a small villa on the other side of the bamboo forest, Nangong Yan and Leng Liancheng stood outside the bamboo forest in silence.

Nangong Yan only came here after nightfall. He only received news of what happened here in the afternoon and went to investigate on Chen Fan's matter.

"It seems that you have put your heart into it." At this time Nangong Yan laughed at himself. He did not expect that Leng Liancheng would come find him because of Gu Ruoyun.

With regards to Bi Xue and Leng Liancheng's request for him to hand the person over to him, Nangong Yan did not say anything. To him, that woman was meaningless.

"What do you think about the matter with Boss Lin?" "He has a close relationship with Chen Fan, so we need to find a way to get to the bottom of this. The item should be in his hand." Leng Liancheng said in a low voice, he did not want to talk about Gu Ruoyun with Nangong Yan.

As for that woman, he had an indescribable feeling about her. However, what happened today truly surprised him.

If Chen Fan hadn't grabbed her, perhaps he wouldn't have suspected her at all. It was a pity that she and Chen Fan went to the stream alone. Although this was a feasible method and the two of them had been alone for a while, although he didn't know what they had said at the bottom of the stream, he could clearly feel that there was a relationship between Gu Ruoyun and Chen Fan.

"Who wouldn't? "But they used the wrong person." Nangong Yan also laughed coldly. With his hands behind his back, he strode into the bamboo forest.

Leng Liancheng followed beside Nangong Yan. The two of them walked side by side, seemingly relaxing. However, there were many bodyguards hidden in the shadows of the bamboo forest.

This was their base. Another kilometer would be the base where they would produce the poppy. Although it was just a small district, the production was far more than anyone could imagine. With the base's financial resources, it was enough to buy three cities.

"Gu Ruoyun is indeed suspicious, you should be careful if you keep her by your side." He did have some impression of that woman. Undeniably, her two eyes kept on appearing in his mind. It was the first time he had seen such clear eyes.

If she was not a woman from Leng Lian City, perhaps Nangong Yan would still be interested in her, but now …

When Leng Lian City returned to their residence, Zhang Yilan handed the contract over to him. Afterwards, he returned to his bedroom and Gu Ruoyun had already fallen asleep.

When he got into bed, Gu Ruoyun woke up with a start. She usually slept very lightly, and with her training, her reaction was also much more sensitive than the others.

"You … "You're back?" Gu Ruoyun felt a little unnatural. She clearly hated him, but ever since she signed that contract, it meant that she was his.

Leng Liancheng turned on the bedside lamp and Gu Ruoyun opened her eyes. She saw Leng Liancheng leaning against the bed and smoking a cigar.

She found him very fond of smoking, and every time she saw him, she had to smoke a few cigarettes, but she didn't hate the smell of it at all. Instead, I had to smell it.

"I'll sign the contract." Gu Ruoyun nervously hugged her blanket, deeply afraid that he would steal the same blanket as her, but her eyes were paying attention to his change.

"Are you implying that you are anxious to be my woman?" Leng Liancheng exhaled gently as he lowered his eyes to look deeply at her.

"Pah …" She had slept for a long time, but now that she didn't have the slightest bit of sleepiness left, coupled with his return, she had no way of sleeping anymore.

"You're so beautiful. If you follow me, I won't treat you unfairly." Leng Liancheng held Gu Ruoyun's shoulder tightly and moved to her side. He stared at her neck.

"Anything else?" Gu Ruoyun felt a little uncomfortable. She seemed to have rarely chatted with him in a calm manner. Such a domineering man used such a brisk tone to speak. Gu Ruoyun secretly thought of him in her heart. What was he planning?

"Such a beautiful neck. Only the King of the Seas is worthy of you." Gu Ruoyun felt her entire body trembling as she spoke.

Did he mean to give her the King of the Seas? There was only one in the entire world, and someone had offered a high price of several hundred million, yet Leng Lian City was unwilling to give it up. Now, he actually wanted to give the King of the Seas to her?

"What, unhappy?" Leng Liancheng said this as he reached into the blanket. His ice-cold fingers caressed Gu Ruoyun's thigh as he lightly teased her.
