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

Chapter 19



Su Ningxi threw the contract back at him with disdain on her face, “Which eye of yours saw that I was happy? No matter your purpose, get that idea out of your head! Don’t try anything with me, I'm not going to enter into a fake marriage with you.”

Huo Yuchen heard this unexpected response and asked: "Why?"

He couldn't think of why she would reject him. The compensation he offered was generous enough for an ordinary woman like her to live in comfort for the rest of her life, yet she had refused so decisively. If it wasn't because she was too greedy, then it must be because she was too stupid.

Su Ningxi explained patiently, "The reason is simple! You have a bad temper, an irritable personality, you’re taciturn and obsessive, and good at pretending. Even though the contract is only for a year, I'm afraid that living under the same roof as you every day, I won't make it through the year before depression finishes me off."

With every word she spoke, the temperature in the car seemed to drop another degree.

Liu Yang the assistant sitting in front shuddered, wishing he could curl into a ball and roll away where no one could see him.

He thought to himself that according to his boss's temper, Miss Su was surely in for more bad luck. This Miss Su really had guts, as far as he knew, no one else dared to speak to his boss like this.

"Look, just by telling the truth I've made you angry again," Su Ningxi said, pointing at Huo Yuchen.

Huo Yuchen gave a cold laugh, mocking her: "You know you're ugly so you want to stand out by acting differently to get my attention?"

Su Ningxi: "I..."

Before Su Ningxi could finish speaking, Huo Yuchen's harsh and caustic words came out.

"Don't overdo playing hard to get, or the chicken will come home to roost."

Su Ningxi laughed in exasperation, "I'm playing hard to get? Do you have some misunderstanding about what that means?"

Huo Yuchen just took her to be making excuses, "Don't waste your efforts, I won't fall for you. I'm very selective when it comes to women, your type doesn't even qualify to line up, the fact I approached you today you should just be happy about!"

Su Ningxi refused to back down, and fired back: "I've seen narcissists before, but never one as narcissistic as you. You actually think you're God's gift to women, that all the women in the capital have to revolve around you! Aren't you overestimating yourself a bit too much."

Huo Yuchen's face darkened, speaking coldly: "Oh really? I hope you don't regret this."

Su Ningxi gave a disdainful snort, "Hmph! Whoever regrets it is a dog."

Huo Yuchen turned to Liu Yang driving in front, "Go to the police station."

Huh? Why were they going to the police station? Was it against the law now to refuse to marry him?

She asked: "Why are we going to the police station?"

They were already at an impasse, shouldn't he be kicking her out of the car, never wanting to see her again? Yet he was taking her to a police station, her instincts told her this did not bode well.

Huo Yuchen ignored her again, closing his eyes and leaning back as if to take a nap.

"If we're going to the police station I don't want to get involved, my friend is still waiting for me! Or just pull over and let me out..."

"Shut up." Huo Yuchen impatiently cut her off.

Su Ningxi clenched her teeth, suppressing the urge to throw a punch at him. This man really had a remarkably bad temper, she would have to find an opportunity to teach him a good lesson.

Just then her phone rang, it was Shen Zhilan calling.

"Ningxi, where are you going? Are you okay? Should I call the police?"

As soon as she picked up, Shen Zhilan's anxious voice came through.

Glancing at the man feigning sleep beside her, Su Ningxi said: "No need."

What was the point of calling the cops when she was already being taken to the police station.

Twenty minutes later, at the police station.

"What, I drugged him?" Su Ningxi's incredulous voice rang out.

Was she dreaming? Yes, she must be dreaming, otherwise how to explain all these bizarre things happening to her.

So she pinched her cheek.

Ouch! That hurt.

"Officers, there must be some mistake. I'm being wrongfully accused, we have no grievances so why would I drug him?"

Su Ningxi said, pointing at Huo Yuchen lounging there like a boss.

"You should be reflecting on your actions now, not making excuses. Tell me, where did you get the drugs from?" The police officer looked stern.

Su Ningxi rubbed her forehead, her head was throbbing. "Why are you so difficult to communicate with? I already said I didn't drug him, didn't drug him, why can't you understand?"

"I see you're still not admitting it even when you're about to hit rock bottom." The policeman threw a stack of papers in front of Su Ningxi, "Take a look at this."

Su Ningxi picked it up and looked through it. It was a medical report on Huo Yuchen's condition.

The results showed traces of an aphrodisiac drug in his blood, as well as mild concussion.

When Su Ningxi saw the words "concussion", she felt a twinge of guilt, recalling that she might have smashed a vase over his head.

But he showed no signs whatsoever of having a concussion, he must be trying to frame her.

She waved the report in her hand, "What are you implying? Just because there are drugs in his system means I gave them to him? As police shouldn't you care most about evidence? Where's the evidence?"

The policeman said, "According to the victim, only you entered his room that night. Of course, you can also provide evidence to prove you didn't administer the drugs."

Su Ningxi was flabbergasted.

Who could tell her how she was supposed to prove her innocence?

She walked over to Huo Yuchen and nudged him with her foot, "Hey! Tell them whether or not I actually drugged you."

The man who had been resting his eyes opened them, although they roiled with dangerous glints, his tone sent chills down her spine, "Want to lose that foot?"

Seeing the man's anger flare up, Su Ningxi instantly switched to fawning, "Oh I just want you to testify for me, testify that I didn't drug you."

Huo Yuchen: "Whether you did or didn't drug me, don't you know best yourself?"

"You clearly know I didn't drug you. If I really did drug you, why didn't I let you... let you..." Su Ningxi couldn't bring herself to finish the sentence.

"Are you certain it was you not letting me, rather than me not being able to get it up seeing your hideous face?"

Su Ningxi...

Even if she had a thousand mouths she wouldn't be able to defend herself now. Any normal person would be more inclined to believe the latter right! But the truth was she had stopped him from sleeping with her!

She should have realized sooner, this scumbag had personally brought her to the police station, how could he possibly speak up for her? He was probably thrilled to pin more crimes on her, she must have been kicked in the head by a donkey.

Just then the policeman came over, "Miss Su, please just honestly tell us where you got the drugs from. Do you know purchasing prohibited drugs is a crime, punishable by over ten years imprisonment, or three to ten years if judged leniently. If you voluntarily confess you may receive a reduced sentence."

At this point, Su Ningxi wished she had a few more mouths, "I told you I didn't drug him, why do you keep not believing me? As police shouldn't you investigate clearly, rather than take the side of whoever is wealthy and powerful and assume they are right..."

"Annoying." Huo Yuchen impatiently interjected, then got up and walked out.
