After Escaping Marriage, She Intrudes into the Dominance of the Tycoon

Chapter 18

Huo Yuchen did not go back to the company. Instead, he went straight back to his villa in Nanyuan Bay. Not long after he got back to the villa, Liu Yang came over, holding a pile of documents in his hands, "Chairman Huo, here is all the information about Miss Su Ningxi."

Huo Yuchen took it and started flipping through it.

Su Ningxi, 20 years old, from Haicheng, dropped out of high school with a junior high education. She is an only child. Her parents are typical farmers from the countryside. She started working away from home at 16, having sold clothes, washed dishes as a waitress, and is hardworking and honest.

Su Ningxi's life story was simply recorded on a single A4 page.

Huo Yuchen put the A4 page on the table, lit a cigarette and took a puff, then asked, "Is this all?"

"Yes, this is all the information there is."

Curiously he asked, "Chairman Huo, why are you investigating her?"

Huo Yuchen, "Don't ask what you shouldn't be asking."

Liu Yang shut his mouth in embarrassment.

Huo Yuchen was very satisfied with Su Ningxi's background, identity and appearance. Using her to anger his father was just perfect.

******

At this time, because Su Ningxi was in a bad mood, she planned to go to a bar to relax! Shen Zhilan went with her. Just as they left the hotel, their way was blocked by someone.

Su Ningxi looked at the person, and her already terrible mood became even worse. She said unpleasantly, "Why is it you again?"

"Who is it, do you know him?" Hearing Su Ningxi's tone, Shen Zhilan asked.

Without thinking, Su Ningxi casually said, "I've seen him once before, he's an insurance salesman."

Seeing Liu Yang dressed in a suit, Shen Zhilan did not doubt Su Ningxi's words. She waved her hand at him, "Go away, we don't want insurance."

Liu Yang's mouth twitched. Since when did he become an insurance salesman?

He took a step forward and spoke respectfully to Su Ningxi, "Miss Su, please come with me. Chairman Huo requests your presence."

"What for?" Su Ningxi felt a tightness in her chest, looking at Liu Yang warily.

Liu Yang explained, "Don't worry Miss Su, we don't have any ill intentions. Our Chairman Huo just wants to have a chat with you."

"Chat with me? What do we have to chat about?" Su Ningxi couldn't think of anything they would have to chat about. After all, the few times they had met were not very pleasant.

"Yes, Chairman Huo is waiting for you in the car."

Su Ningxi glanced at the limited edition Maybach not far away. Was that creepy man sitting inside it?

The car windows were closed tight, and she couldn't see anyone inside. Maybe it was psychological, but Su Ningxi felt like a pair of overbearing eyes were piercing through the glass staring straight at her.

"I have nothing to talk to him about, I'm not going." Su Ningxi rejected the idea without thinking. Just thinking about Huo Yuchen still gave her chills. That man was too scary, he must be up to no good looking for her.

"Then I'll have to use force." Liu Yang spoke in a businesslike tone, then signaled the two bodyguards who had appeared next to him out of nowhere with a look.

Seeing the situation was not good, Su Ningxi whispered to Shen Zhilan, "How many can you handle?"

Although Shen Zhilan didn't understand what they were talking about, seeing the two burly bodyguards, he knew these men were not insurance salesmen as Su Ningxi had claimed.

Shen Zhilan's legs suddenly felt weak, but to save face, he still held up three fingers and said, "Three...three."

"Great, I'll leave it to you then." Su Ningxi said, then turned and ran away.

Shen Zhilan watched Su Ningxi's retreating figure dumbfounded. What happened to sharing blessings and troubles together? She just left him alone and ran off herself?

But the bodyguards' target was Su Ningxi. They went around Shen Zhilan and chased after Su Ningxi.

Shen Zhilan dashed over to block their path.

He was an entertainment circle socialite who rarely saw the sun. His soft, delicate skin was no match for professionally trained bodyguards. In just moments he was overpowered, with both hands pinned behind his back, unable to move.

He shouted at Su Ningxi's retreating figure, "Help, save me..."

Hearing Shen Zhilan's cries for help, Su Ningxi turned around to look. She rubbed her forehead, there was no point running now. He had claimed he could handle three, didn't he? It looked like she had overestimated him.

She had no choice but to double back. Looking at Liu Yang, she said, "Weren't you saying your boss wants to talk to me? Let's go then!"

Liu Yang made a "please" gesture with his hand, "Miss Su, please follow me."

Shen Zhilan looked at her worriedly, "Ningxi..."

"Don't worry, I'll be right back." Su Ningxi gave Shen Zhilan a reassuring look.

She followed behind Liu Yang towards the Maybach.

Liu Yang opened the rear door ahead of her. Su Ningxi glanced at Huo Yuchen sitting inside the car, then sat down heavily, trying her best to ignore the powerful aura he emitted.

With an "I won't lose to you" attitude, she crossed her legs and folded her arms, saying, "Speak, what do you want with me?"

Huo Yuchen looked up from the pile of documents on his lap to see Su Ningxi still bouncing her crossed leg up and down. His good-looking eyebrows furrowed slightly. This woman really had no feminine qualities whatsoever, she was crude and rude.

Su Ningxi, "What are you staring at me for? If you have something to say then say it."

Huo Yuchen handed her a document and uttered two words, "Look at."

Su Ningxi gave him a glance, then accepted the document confusedly.

"Marriage agreement." When she saw the big words on the document, she thought her eyes were playing tricks on her. She rubbed her eyes to confirm she wasn't seeing things. This was a marriage agreement.

She immediately sat up straight and asked Huo Yuchen, "Are you sure you want me to look at this?"

Huo Yuchen glanced at his limited edition wristwatch, "You only have ten minutes."

"What do you mean, you want to marry me? Don't tell me you've fallen for me?"

Huo Yuchen looked at Su Ningxi as if she were an idiot.

Su Ningxi ignored his expression and said, "Why are you looking at me like that! I'm just joking."

Huo Yuchen...

She must know he would never be interested in her, given her image...it was hard to describe.

Huo Yuchen said, "It's a contract marriage, for one year. The details are all in the contract, you can take a look first."

WHAT? A contract marriage? What on earth was he playing at?

Marriage means getting married, what's with this contract marriage business? Was he trying to play some kind of game?

Driven by curiosity, Su Ningxi read through the entire contract from beginning to end.

The gist of it was that after marrying him, she only needed to cooperate and pretend to be his wife for one year. After the year was up they would separate, and she would get a considerable sum of money from him.

After reading it, she asked again uncertainly, "You want a contract marriage with me?"

No matter how she thought about it, she couldn't understand why he would want to marry her. With his status he could randomly pick any woman off the street and she would be better than Su Ningxi now! What was his hidden agenda?

Thinking she didn't believe such a good thing could happen to her, since there were countless women who wanted to get involved with him, Huo Yuchen said, "Don't get too excited too soon. Read the contract clearly, it's a contract marriage, simply put - a fake marriage."
