Her phone was still ringing. Xu Wan didn’t dare to pick up the call, but she also didn’t dare to hang up.

Qiao Chen must be really livid this time. Xu Wan had a strong premonition.

What should she do?

“Is it Qiao Chen?” Han Bing seemed to have guessed the identity of the person who called.

Xu Wan gritted her teeth and was about to hang up the phone when Han Bing suddenly snatched the phone. After picking up the call, he said frivolously, “Mr. Qiao, are you looking for Wan Wan? I’m sorry. Wan Wan is my girlfriend now. I hope you won’t disturb her in the future. Goodbye!”

With that, Han Bing swiftly hung up the phone.

Xu Wan stared at Han Bing with her mouth agape for quite a while before she asked, “You, how could you say that to him?”

Han Bing winked at Xu Wan. “Wan Wan, don’t you want to get rid of Qiao Chen now? Why don’t you put on a show with me? Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you. Although I like you a lot, I respect you too. I’ll let you notice my good qualities gradually and fall in love with me. Then you will be content with staying here with me.”

After that, Han Bing glanced at his watch and said, “I’m going to the company to settle some matters first. I’ll come over for dinner with you tonight.”

After Han Bing left, Xu Wan stayed in the room alone. She felt extremely helpless.

Now that she and Qiao Chen had fallen out, what should she do?

Qiao Chen was obviously not someone to be trifled with. She had already made him lose face time and time again. Would he take revenge on her?

Xu Wan was lost in her thoughts when the door was suddenly pushed open.

Xu Wan looked up and saw a few men in extravagant clothes walking in. Their eyes lit up when they saw Xu Wan.

“I didn’t expect there to be such a beautiful girl here!”

The few of them walked towards Xu Wan. Xu Wan could smell the strong odor of alcohol from them.

“What are you doing!” Xu Wan screamed as she saw the men walking over and even reaching out to grab her. She was so frightened that she immediately dodged to the side.

“Oh, you’re quite innocent? I like it!” They didn’t expect her to escape like this, which made the men even more thrilled. Two of them blocked her way, while the other stared at her with a perverted gaze and slowly approached her.

“Little baby, serve me well. I have plenty of money, and I won’t underpay you!” The man’s eyes shone with excitement.

Xu Wan huddled in the corner of the sofa in despair.

How could she, a feeble woman, defeat these three burly men? When the three of them entered, they had already closed the door. This room had excellent soundproofing. Even if she screamed her lungs out, no one would come to save her!

The man pounced on her like a hungry wolf.

Xu Wan screamed. Then the man tore her clothes apart, revealing her bare shoulders.

Xu Wan was horrified. She cried as she covered her clothes and kicked the man. “Get lost!”

However, the more she struggled, the more worked up the man became. The primal desire in his eyes seemed more unrestrained.

Despair spread across Xu Wan’s heart. She swore in her head that if the man dared to come over again, she would smash her head against the wall and die!

…

“Is it here?” Qiao Chen got out of the car and asked icily as he looked at the new bar in front of him.

Ah De nodded. “Yeah, the GPS says it’s here.”

As long as he had Xu Wan’s phone number, Qiao Chen could find out Xu Wan’s address anytime. Hence, when he knew that Xu Wan had run away, he immediately came to bring her back.

The banquet was tonight. He had to bring Xu Wan along!

Qiao Chen strode in with a gloomy expression on his face.

When the receptionist saw a group of people storming in aggressively and looking like they were going to smash up the place, her face turned ghostly pale.

Ah De walked forward and placed a phone showing Xu Wan’s photo in front of the receptionist. “Where is this person?”

The receptionist shook her head tearfully. “The boss took her away. I don’t know which room she is in!”

Ah De turned to look at Qiao Chen, awaiting his order.

Qiao Chen’s chilly gaze swept across the bar, and commanded in a ghastly tone. “Search!”

Upon hearing Qiao Chen’s command, the dozen subordinates that followed him started searching the rooms one by one.

“You…” The receptionist looked at these unreasonable people in disbelief. She could not believe that there was someone in the capital who dared be so disrespectful towards Boss Han’s!

Qiao Chen strode into the corridor and searched the rooms one by one.

He could not suppress the rage in his heart. He thought of tying that woman up to teach her a lesson when he found that woman later!

He walked to a luxurious room and tried to push the door open. Seeing that the door was locked, he kicked the door impatiently. “Open the door!”

However, the door was still tightly shut.

“Smash it.” Qiao Chen frankly ordered as he didn’t have the patience to continue knocking on the door.

Ah De called two thugs over. In just ten seconds, the few of them had kicked the door open. Qiao Chen walked into the room. Suddenly, he saw three men surrounding a woman.

That woman was Xu Wan!
