The Evil Villainess' Sweet Love Story

Seeing how angry Li Jingran was, the Butler realized the seriousness of the matter. That night, he brought Zhao Zixuan to the Li family.

The villa was brightly lit. The servants had already gone to bed.

The Butler brought him to the study on the second floor and said in a low voice, “Director Li, he’s here.”

Li Jingran stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. His eyes were dark. “Okay, you can go out first.”

The Butler walked out quietly. Zhao Zixuan was a little impatient. “Why did you bring me here in the middle of the night?”

“What did you do to Xu Wanwan today?” Li Jingran’s eyes were terrifyingly cold as he stared into Zhao Zixuan’s eyes.

Under such a powerful aura, Zhao Zixuan couldn’t help but panic.

He forced himself to answer, “I didn’t do anything. Why are you saying that I did?”

The viciousness in Li Jingran’s eyes became more and more obvious. He narrowed his eyes, and his whole body was filled with danger.

“Everything you say and do is related to the Zhao Corporation. I advise you to carefully think about your answer.”

Zhao Zixuan clenched his teeth and finally lost the battle.

The Zhao Corporation was his weak spot. No one could threaten the interests of the company.

He had seen Li Jingran’s power before, so it would be a lie to say that he was not afraid.

“I think you should have made it clear before,” Zhao Zixuan said as if he was taking credit. “Xu Wanwan was brought to the middle of nowhere by Xu Yue. I just happened to see her, so I followed her and saved her life.”

“Since Director Li cares so much about Xu Wanwan, you should thank me now.”

Li Jingran’s thin lips curled into a mocking smile. “Thank you?”

“Director Li, it’s fine if you don’t want to tell me. I just want to tell you that I saved Xu Wanwan, so this matter has nothing to do with me.”

“If you want to cause trouble, you should go to the Xu family. I really don’t know why you called me here in the middle of the night.”

Zhao Zixuan didn’t like Li Jingran to begin with, and now he was full of resentment. He couldn’t help but say a few more words.

Li Jingran said coldly, “I called you here to ask you to do something for me.”

After saying that, he pushed a draft agreement over.

“Take a look at the terms of the agreement. If you agree, sign your name at the bottom. After the matter is done, the Li Group is willing to resume cooperation with the Zhao Corporation.”

When he heard that it was related to the family business, Zhao Zixuan suddenly became excited. He took the document and began to read it.

Halfway through, his brows were tightly furrowed. His face was full of disbelief. “You want me to help you do such a thing?! What would my parents do if they found out?”

“Besides, my relationship with Xu Yue is not ordinary. Aren’t you forcing me to do such a thing?”

“Moreover, the Xu family is not to be trifled with. What if they call the police?”

Li Jingran snorted. “They won’t dare to call the police.”

Zhao Zixuan still found it hard to accept. “Let’s not talk about this cooperation. I can’t accept your request. If I do as you say, I won’t have a foothold in the Xu family in the future.”

“If you don’t do as I say, you won’t have a foothold in the Zhao family in the future.”

“Are you threatening me?”

Li Jingran nodded indifferently. “You can interpret it that way.”

Zhao Zixuan was so angry that he took a deep breath. “Okay, I promise you! But you have to help me explain when the time comes. You can’t let the police take me away.”

“Well, I hope you can finish it before tomorrow morning.”

“No problem. I have a lot of people there.” A trace of coldness flashed in Zhao Zixuan’s eyes. For the sake of the Zhao family’s business, it was not a big deal to do a wicked thing.

Xu Yue could only be blamed for her mistake. Even if she was punished, there was nothing wrong with that.

After Zhao Zixuan left, Li Jingran raised his wrist to check the time and got up to go downstairs.

At this time, the maids had already rested, but Xu Wanwan had not come out to eat since she returned home.

Li Jingran opened the refrigerator and took a bottle of yogurt and some fruits from inside. He put them on a plate and carried them to her room.

He knocked on the door a few times, but there was no response. Li Jingran frowned and pushed the door open without waiting for her consent.

The curtains were not closed, and a gust of night wind blew against his face.

Under the moonlight, the room was shrouded in a faint shadow. Xu Wanwan was sitting at the corner of the French window, her small shoulders hunched close to each other. The view of her back was inexplicably heartbreaking.

Li Jingran walked over quietly and sat down beside the girl. “Are you in a bad mood?”

Xu Wanwan raised her eyes slowly, her bright eyes covered with a layer of mist. “Yes, a little.”

“Can you tell me what happened today?”

“Some things will feel better if you tell me.”

The night was quiet. The moon outside the window was emitting a faint light, illuminating the room.

Xu Wanwan gently hugged her body and said calmly, “After school today, I was taken to an abandoned factory.”

“Someone tried to force me… Fortunately, I was lucky and didn’t let them succeed.”

At this point, Xu Wanwan’s emotions were a little out of control. Her voice was a little choked up. “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Li Jingran looked at the girl’s tiny figure, and his heart couldn’t help but tighten.

His Adam’s apple rolled down, and he said in a low voice, “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure the bad guys are punished.”

How could he not feel sorry for the girl when she was like this?

When he saw her furrowed brows, his heart softened. He had forgotten everything and only wanted to seek justice for her.

Xu Wanwan lowered her eyes. “Let bygones be bygones.”

Li Jingran reached out and patted the girl’s back gently. “Okay, it’s all in the past.”

The man’s voice was inexplicably gentle, like the cool moonlight shining on his heart.

Xu Wanwan didn’t want him to worry too much. She tried hard to smile and said, “Okay! I’ll adjust my mood!”

“If that’s the case, then let’s eat something first.” Li Jingran didn’t hesitate at all and pushed over the fruits on the plate.

Xu Wanwan didn’t have much appetite, but it was okay to eat some fruit.

She nodded and took an apple obediently, nibbling on it.

Li Jingran stayed by her side the whole time. He only left the room after she finished eating.

Xu Wanwan was in a much better mood. She lay on the bed and fell asleep very quickly.

The next day, the first ray of light shone into the room through the window. She rubbed her eyes and reached for her phone to check the time.

Before she could open her eyes completely, she was attracted by a piece of news that suddenly popped up.

“A woman was raped in an abandoned factory in A City…”

Under the headline, there was an extremely explicit photo and a video.

With just a casual glance, Xu Wanwan recognized that the person in the photo was Xu Yue. She instantly woke up, sat up from her bed, and clicked on the news.

Although the news involved scenes that should not be exposed, no one seemed to care about it. Some unsightly pictures were still circulated.

In the video, two gangsters dressed inappropriately grabbed Xu Yue’s body, rudely tore off her clothes, and did the most unsightly thing…
