Song Nuanyi sneered in her heart.

Happy? The word happiness was too extravagant. She never dared to think about it. She only hoped that in this life, she could take revenge, protect the people who really treated her well, and allow them to be safe and healthy.

She avoided Wu Chaotian’s hand and picked up her bag, using it to block his hand. “Let’s call it a day. The follow-up contract will be connected to my assistant.”

Her lips curled into a smile, but there was no smile in her eyes. “I hope Director Wu won’t disappoint me tomorrow.”

Song Nuanyi was about to call Assistant Chen to pick her up, but just as she found her phone number, she suddenly remembered that Qiao Kang must be connecting with Assistant Chen in Europe, so she turned off her phone and hailed a taxi.

Not long after the car left, the driver took the initiative to chat with Song Nuanyi. “You look a little familiar.”

Song Nuanyi smiled. “Maybe I have a common face.”

“That’s not right.” The driver smacked his lips. After thinking for a moment, he said, “You’re that famous businesswoman from the financial newspaper, Song Nuanyi, right?”

Song Nuanyi wanted to deny it, but the man looked very happy. Even though he was already middle-aged, he was as excited as a young man chasing after a celebrity. In an instant, she vaguely saw her father’s shadow on this middle-aged driver.

The middle-aged driver talked happily all the way until his voice was a little hoarse. He picked up the thermos cup from his hand and handed it to Song Nuanyi. He said embarrassedly, “Miss Song, please help me open it. I can’t free my hands while driving.”

Song Nuanyi took the thermos cup and opened it with a little force. She opened the lid and handed the water to the driver. The driver said, “Help me hold it first. I can have a sip when the lights are red.”

Song Nuanyi wanted to cover the cup first to prevent the water from getting cold. However, before she could wring it, she felt dizzy and nauseous. She did not have much strength in her hands.

The car suddenly braked and she was driven forward by inertia. The cup in her hand that was not wrung was thrown out and the water in it spilled all over the car.

She wanted to apologize, but her consciousness became more and more blurry. In the end, the world spun and she fainted.

Song Nuanyi saw the fire that took her life again. She felt a chill all over her body. That piercing pain was something she would never experience again in this lifetime.

She coughed violently and lifted her heavy eyelids.

Her vision was pale. A few black figures swayed and spun in her blurry vision. She closed her eyes with force and opened them again. It took her two or three times to wake up completely.

She was in an empty room. Five men in black suits were guarding her. When one of them saw that she was awake, he went to the side to make a phone call.

Song Nuanyi was tied to a chair. When she woke up, she was not in a hurry to question her. Instead, she observed her surroundings. This room should be a bedroom in the hotel.

Although there were no signs inside, through the white curtains, she could vaguely see the huge building outside the window.

At that time, the famous landmark in the center of the Capital was Superstar. She remembered that Wu Chenjin’s engagement party was in the auditorium near Superstar. It seemed that she was not far from the auditorium, and she could even make a bold guess, she was on a certain floor in the auditorium.

After confirming the location, Song Nuanyi calmly asked the bodyguards, “Hey! Who sent you guys?”

The five bodyguards remained silent. Song Nuanyi kicked the table beside her and roared, “If you don’t say something, I’m going to kill myself. I don’t think your master wants me to die, right?”

The bodyguard on the phone walked over with a cold face. He grabbed her chair and pulled her to the ground. She was instantly weightless. Her elbow hit the ground hard, and even her waist hurt.

She looked at the man with a pained expression. The man said, “You won’t die, but you probably won’t have a chance to know who the person behind us is.”

Song Nuanyi snorted and then laughed disdainfully. She laughed intermittently, which made their hairs stand on end.
