Chapter 1: He won't let her die!

In the evening, in the muddy outskirts, a long-haired woman in a beige sweater lay there, covered in blood, and her beige sweater was also stained red with blood.

Her once beautiful and captivating face had lost all color.

Standing in front of her was a woman with delicate makeup, looking down at the woman lying in the mud with arrogance.

"Shi Wei Xia, you're good at seducing men, aren't you? I want to see who would still want to look at you without that face!" The woman laughed wildly and pulled out a sharp dagger.

When the cold blade cut open her face, Shi Wei Xia felt excruciating pain, and the cold rain fell on her wound, causing her to tremble violently in pain.

"Does it hurt? Good, Shi Wei Xia, do you know that I love seeing you in pain!" The woman exclaimed excitedly.

"Even if I become a ghost, I won't let you off!" Shi Wei Xia gritted her teeth and, with her last bit of strength, uttered fiercely.

She had been foolish, blinded by hatred, and single-mindedly seeking revenge, and had been deceived by this couple, ultimately leading to the destruction of her family. Now, she was being humiliated by them before her death.

Unfortunately, she only realized their true nature at this moment.

If she could become a ghost, she would definitely seek vengeance on this couple!

With hatred in her eyes, Shi Wei Xia looked at the man in a silver-gray suit who had been standing silently behind the woman.

...

The heavy rain continued to pour as a convoy drove into the desolate outskirts.

The lead black car abruptly slammed on the brakes and the car door was forcefully pushed open.

With a thud, a tall figure tumbled out of the car's back seat. Despite looking disheveled, the man's powerful aura remained undiminished. He paid no attention to the mud on his body and instead fixed his gaze on something not far away.

When his eyes fell on the frail figure lying in the mud, his handsome face turned pale.

"Boss, are you okay?" a bodyguard reached out to help him.

"Get lost!" the man pushed away the bodyguard in disgust, disregarding the mud on himself, and quickly propped himself up with a cane, heading towards the figure in the mud.

Upon reaching her side, the man dropped the cane.

With a thud, he fell directly beside her. His handsome face was filled with pain.

"Shi Wei Xia, you're not allowed to die. Open your eyes for me!" His domineering voice resounded as he reached out and pulled the dirty figure into his arms, allowing her blood to stain his white shirt.

Not allowed to die!

He wouldn't allow her to die!

At the sound of the once detested domineering voice, Shi Wei Xia slowly opened her eyes to see the still incredibly handsome face. However, in just a few days, he had aged considerably.

The man she remembered as always domineering and superior now seemed to have aged significantly.

"Shi Wei Xia, do you think you can escape from me by dying? Even if you become a ghost, I won't let you go!" The man looked down at her with deep anger in his cold and stern face.

Despite her many reckless actions in her lifetime, he had never truly blamed her. However, the one thing he couldn't allow was for her to leave him forever.

Hearing the man's words, Shi Wei Xia felt a bitter pang in her heart.

She had always believed that he was responsible for her parents' death, and thus, had hated him for so many years, causing him so much pain.

Her whole life seemed like a mistake.

Feeling her strength slowly draining away, Shi Wei Xia could no longer muster the energy to say anything, but she forced herself to look at him one last time. The person who had been the best to her in this world turned out to be the person she had hated the most.

She wanted to apologize to him, but at this moment, she could no longer speak.

With great effort, she raised her hand and, after a long time, finally touched the man's face.

Her sudden movement and the never-before-seen tenderness in her eyes, despite her disfigured face, froze the man in place.

Shi Wei Xia managed to force a smile, but she couldn't hold on any longer. Her hand fell.

With a thud!

At that moment, a loud noise rang out, and the man's warm blood splattered on her face.

Shi Wei Xia widened her eyes in shock. The man reached out and gently caressed her disfigured face, which had lost its former appearance. In his deep black eyes, there was an overwhelming affection. A faint smile appeared on his usually serious and cold face.

"I told you, even if you die, you can't escape from me..." He lowered his head and placed a kiss on her unbearable face.

As he spoke, he embraced her and fell into the mud with her.

Shi Wei Xia slowly closed her eyes, listening to his heartbeat fading along with hers, until it disappeared completely.

- Long Tingye, if there is another life, I will definitely try to love you.

She silently vowed, but it was already too late.

...

Her limbs felt restrained, and she couldn't move. It was painful and sore. It turned out that even in death, one could still feel.

The man's powerful presence made it difficult for her to breathe, as if she was suffocating.

"Um..." Her lips were tightly sealed, and an involuntary sound escaped her throat. Between her nose and lips, she felt a familiar breath and touch that she had once known so well.

Just as she was about to open her eyes, a man's cold and sharp voice sounded in her ears.

"Aren't you going to keep pretending to be dead?"

As soon as the man's voice fell, Shi Weixia's body trembled...

Just as she was looking at the man in shock, his voice, filled with uncontrollable anger, suddenly sounded again.

"Shi Weixia, you've got some nerve, daring to drug me?!" His slender fingers forcefully pinched her chin, forcing her to meet his cold gaze.

His handsome face was as frosty as ever.

It seemed that he had been too indulgent towards her! Before their wedding, she dared to drug him in order to escape, and the dosage was not light, causing him to sleep for a whole day!

Facing the man's anger, Shi Weixia, lying beneath him, could only express shock and disbelief on her face.

She widened her eyes, carefully examining the man who was pressing her down at this moment.

He had an incredibly handsome face, but his black eyes, as dark as ink, were full of coldness and sharpness...

And that domineering and unreasonable tone and voice just now, besides Long Tingye, who else could it be...

Looking at the man's unparalleled handsome face, tears welled up in Shi Weixia's eyes.
