Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

The night before Jia Li's death.

Jia Li was in a mess. Her clothes were ripped and crumpled, the previous neat and seductive look she was proud of flaunting to seduce men was no longer. With all the bruises on her knees from kneeling for hours and the scratches that were starting to bleed from the tight ropes wrapping around her wrists and ankles, nobody would ever associate her with the actress Jia Li.

Yan Zhuhui wouldn't kill her. His love for her will be the only burden and strongest chain that will restrain himself from doing it. That was enough for Jia Li to slow down her fast heartbeat.

But where was he? It has been three hours since he left yet he hasn't come down to see her.

Ah, he must be licking all the wounds she caused to his heart like a wounded cat. Then, after he's done, he'll come back purring and begging her for pets.

Jia Li was confident that Yan Zhuhui wouldn't do anything to harm her. Even though she did cheat on him and lied to him, she could just pull out some tearjerkers to tickle his pity and affection for her to forgive her. Then, everything will be back to its original place.

As she was waiting for Yan Zhuhui to come to her, the bodyguards that monitored her movements smoked cigars in a relaxed position as they roamed around the room. Although they appeared to be so relaxed and unattentive, their eyes were all glued to Jia Li's figure as if they were eagles, ready to claw at her.

One of the bodyguards who went to the balcony to call President Yan returned to the room and said, "The boss is coming back in ten minutes. He said to bring that thing inside before he arrives."

Hearing this, Jia Li was feeling afraid but also triumphant. See? Even though she broke his heart, he's still willing to come and look at her. Now, it's up to her acting to get him back to trust her.

Jia Li was so focused on President Yan's impending arrival that she didn't hear the other things that the bodyguard was talking about. By the time she finally cared, the door opened and a naked man with a sack wrapped around his head was thrown next to her legs.

"Kya!"

Unlike the naked man, she could see so she instantly noticed the harsh and gruesome wounds on the man's body. Upon seeing it, she was scared and backed away, but because she was tied up, she could only make small movements and barely got a step away from the man.

"Mmmph! kgghh! mmph!"

The naked man was mumbling something but from the sound of it, there was something blocking his mouth. Jia Li was in disbelief. Why did they bring someone else in the room? What does President Yan want to do?

The man squirmed like a worm. His blood stained the white wool carpet underneath them and he flinched even more as his wound reopened. Every part of his body, joints, muscles, and even his internal organs were not unharmed. For an entire day, he was punched, beaten up, stabbed and slashed by a knife. Everything burned and sting like a jerk.

But he couldn't even scream for help when a dirty sock was gagged in his mouth and his limbs were bound. Praying also didn't help, nobody could save him.

However, when he was thrown to the ground just now and heard the sound of a woman screaming, his hope started to burn wildly. Especially when the voice was so familiar.

Was he going crazy now? Why was he hearing his lover's voice?

"What's the meaning of this? Why did you bring a dead person here!" Despite her demand for answers, nobody answered her. "You're not doing this to scare me, right? Where's Yan Zhuhui! I want to talk to him!"

The bodyguards were unmoved by her words. Last time, they saw this woman standing beside their Boss's side and it looked like she was just a vow away from being the Boss' wife. However, the boss called them to bring her and her lover together in that room. As for what purpose does the boss have by doing this, a mere guard like him can easily tell, but wouldn't speak it.

Being ignored like this, Jia Li's heart started to feel fear for the first time. Could it be that Yan Zhuhui wanted to take care of her now? No! That cannot be! He loves her so much that he's willing to do anything for her, there's no way he wouldn't forgive her if she sincerely begged for forgiveness!

As time ticked by, the door to the room was pushed open and a group of men entered led by President Yan, who was walking at the front.

Seeing him appear, Jia Li wanted to jump to his side and cling to him, but before she could do anything, a bodyguard pushed her to the ground until her face was pressed against it.

President Yan looked around the room and walked to sit on the sofa across from Jia Li and her lover. A bodyguard served him a glass of wine then he said, "I apologize for my bodyguard's rudeness. He's just making you won't run away."

"If you're really sorry, why don't you untie me and hug me? Babe, I know I was wrong, I'll change so please don't scare me," Jia Li begged him.

President Yan stared at her for a long moment before he waved for the bodyguard pressing down on her to move away from her.

Jia Li's confidence immediately shot up and she wanted to tug on his affection towards her more.

Bang!

However, the moment she started to take a move forward, a gunshot was heard and a hole was drilled between her legs.

"Kyaa!!" Jia Li screamed in fright and stumbled backwards. "You... you! Yan Zhuhui, what do you think you're doing right now? You actually dare to shoot your gun at me?!"

President Yan was unamused by her screams and words.

"Remove the sack on his head and let her see the present I got for her." President Yan took a sip from his glass. "See for yourself if I dare or not."

At his order, one bodyguard stepped forward and pulled the sack off the naked man's head, revealing a face that was the size of two heads, a result of being beaten for an entire day by a dozen men.

Jia Li pulled away as if she was disgusted and frightened by the sight of the man's beaten up face. But after a few seconds, she recognized the face and paled.

"You... You are..."

"Surprisingly, even with his face like this, you can still recognize him. It seems I underestimate your feelings for this man," President Yan narrowed his eyes.

"No! I don't know him!" Jia Li denied it. How... How is he here? Didn't he stay in Hua Country?

Jia Li knew that there was no other way out. She couldn't make an excuse and tell him that everything was a misunderstanding now that everything has been exposed.

No! I refuse to give up!

Jia Li thought quickly of how she could escape this situation and decided to choose to play with his emotions again. "Babe, it was a mistake. I was seduced by this useless man's words! He... he blackmailed me to sleep with him! I really didn't want to cheat on you!"

Her words didn't only shock President Yan, even her lover, and the guards in the room were speechless. How shameless can she be?

"Boss..."

One of the right-hand man of President Yan stepped forward. He knew that his boss's love towards this woman was genuine. He was worried that his boss would feel pity and really buy her lies.

But there was no need to worry about him.

President Yan didn't believe Jia Li. If he hadn't known about the truth that she approached the other man first, he would have bought her lies. However, he was tired. So tired of being played and manipulated by his emotions.

He stood up and glanced at his right-hand man, "Take them out and deal with them. Don't ask me how, you decide how you want to deal with them, Han."

Before he turned his back, pain and sadness flashed in President Yan's eyes.

Han, the right-hand man, bit his lips when he saw his boss's look and solemnly nodded. "Yes, sir."
