Chapter 1 Shameless Scoundrel

• "Yan Yan, I'm begging you, this time it's really important to me. It's about whether I can get a promotion. I'm doing this for our future."
• "Just spend one night with him, just one night. I promise I won't look down on you, I'll treat you even better."
• "Think about it, we're getting married soon, we don't have a house, and your mother's illness requires a lot of money for treatment. If you agree to him, we'll have everything."
• The shameless words of her boyfriend, Zhang Ziyang, echoed in Jiang Weiyang's ears. She felt a burning sensation all over her body and desperately grabbed the door handle in front of her. It was just the door of a hotel room, but someone had locked it from the outside, and no matter how hard she pulled, she couldn't open it.
• The alcohol mixed with the drugs in her body began to take effect, and Jiang Weiyang's breathing became more and more rapid, the heat in her body becoming unbearable.
• Zhang Ziyang was afraid that she wouldn't comply, so he not only got her drunk but also added a powerful aphrodisiac to her drink, all with the purpose of giving her to his superior to please him and secure a promotion.
• Jiang Weiyang knew that Zhang Ziyang would never give her a chance to escape. All she could do now was to pray for mercy from the man inside the room.
• She bit her tongue hard, allowing herself to regain a bit of clarity, and then staggered into the room.
• The curtains in the room were all drawn, and the lighting was dim, making it difficult to see what was inside.
• Jiang Weiyang was about to turn on the lights when the bathroom door behind her suddenly clicked open, and she was pulled into a scorching embrace.
• The man's breathing was rapid as he tightly held her in his arms, showering her with countless kisses.
• Jiang Weiyang didn't even have a chance to beg for mercy.
• Under the deliberate teasing of the man, the effects of the drugs in her body completely erupted, drowning out all her rationality.
• The man in the darkness was like a wild beast, possessing her with a storm-like intensity, until Jiang Weiyang couldn't bear the torment and fainted.
• When she opened her eyes again, it was already morning. The curtains were still drawn, and the room was dimly lit, only allowing her to see things vaguely. The sound of running water came from the bathroom.
• The soreness all over her body reminded her of what happened last night.
• She had been betrayed by Zhang Ziyang and slept with a stranger.
• Humiliation and anger surged up in an instant. She suppressed the discomfort in her body, bent down to pick up the clothes on the ground, put them on one by one, and finally glanced in the direction of the bathroom. Without looking back, she left the room.
• Overwhelmed by betrayal and anger, Jiang Weiyang came out of the hotel and went straight to Zhang Ziyang's house by taxi.
• It happened to be the weekend, and Zhang Ziyang was off work. Jiang Weiyang was certain that he would be at home, so she didn't even bother to make a phone call and went straight there.
• Along the way, countless thoughts flashed through her mind.
• She met Zhang Ziyang in college, and they officially started dating in their sophomore year. They had been together for three years now. They had originally planned to get married at the end of the year, but unexpectedly, Zhang Ziyang turned out to be heartless. He betrayed her in order to get a promotion and a raise.
• Just thinking about this, Jiang Weiyang felt that she had been blind for the past three years, and she had misjudged him.
• Jiang Weiyang had a key to Zhang's house. When she arrived at the doorstep, she took out the key and opened the door. However, at the moment she entered, all the questions she had prepared to ask got stuck in her throat. She looked at the man and woman sitting on the sofa, passionately embracing each other. It felt as if her throat was being tightly choked by someone's hand. She stood there, completely chilled, staring at the man who had professed his love for her.
• "Weiyang..."
• A moment of panic flashed across Zhang Ziyang's face. He pushed away the woman in his arms and instinctively stood up, wanting to explain to Jiang Weiyang.
• But the woman beside him pulled him back, looking at Jiang Weiyang with a sneer. She sarcastically said, "Jiang Weiyang, since you've seen it all, there's no need for us to hide anymore. We've been together for a long time. You can peacefully break up with him."
• Jiang Weiyang was not unfamiliar with the woman in front of her because they had been roommates for four years in college.
• "Break up peacefully? Qin Manman, are you joking with me?" Jiang Weiyang's anger suddenly surged as she looked at Qin Manman's arrogant face.
• "Why bother with all this entanglement? The ugly truth is that you are the one who can't see that Ziyang's choice is you. He was just using you, and now that you have no more value to him, he won't keep you around, will he? Let me tell you the truth, we've been together for a year already. If it wasn't for his boss taking an interest in you, he wouldn't have waited until today to tell you about it. Now I'm pregnant, and we're getting married soon." Qin Manman proudly lifted her chin, enjoying the shocked and disappointed expression on Jiang Weiyang's face.
• She couldn't stand Jiang Weiyang's self-righteous attitude. They were all the same kind of people, so why should Jiang Weiyang act superior?
• "I've never seen someone shamelessly defend themselves so confidently! Qin Manman, don't you think you're despicable?" Jiang Weiyang felt a dull pain in her heart, and looking at Ziyang's evasive gaze, what else was there to be unclear about?
• She just found it laughable. After so many years of a relationship, it was over with a simple breakup.
• If the incident of Ziyang giving her away last night made her angry and humiliated, then today, Ziyang undoubtedly slapped her in the face once again.
• "Despicable? Haha, Jiang Weiyang, aren't you despicable too? Stop trying to make yourself look good. Love between a man and a woman is consensual. Ziyang and I truly love each other, while you, who are tangled up, are the truly despicable one."
• "Ziyang, about last night..." Jiang Weiyang didn't want to pay attention to Qin Manman, her gaze urgently turning towards Ziyang, wanting to hear what he really thought.
• "Jiang Weiyang, I don't owe you anything. We've been together for so long, and I have truly treated you well. Consider it as my way of repaying you for these years of kindness. What difference can you make by helping me once? Manman and I are genuinely in love, so please stop this entanglement. Let me go and pursue our happiness." Ziyang avoided Jiang Weiyang's gaze, his tone devoid of any guilt towards her.
• Jiang Weiyang almost couldn't catch her breath.
• How could this man shamelessly defend himself so confidently?
• She couldn't control her anger and pain for a moment, and quickly stepped forward, grabbing Qin Manman's hair and slapping her twice.
• "Ah! Jiang Weiyang, you shrew! What are you trying to do?" Qin Manman shrieked sharply. "Ziyang, hurry up and get her off me!"
• Zhang Ziyang was also startled by Jiang Weiyang's sudden appearance. It wasn't until Qin Manman shouted that he reacted and took a step forward, pulling Jiang Weiyang away and pushing her to the ground.
• "That's enough, Jiang Weiyang. Acting like a shrew only makes me despise you even more! Just go away! It's over between us!"
