However, since the engagement was set, there was no use in crying over spilled milk. If they were to renege on the engagement now, the media would definitely stir up a storm. This would not be good for the two corporations.

Even if she could break off the engagement, Shi Yuxuan would not do so. After all, it was this engagement that made Shi Qi, who had always been indifferent to her, smile sincerely from the bottom of her heart.

That was the first time Shi Qi had smiled at her in almost twenty years.

It was also because of this that Yuxuan was grateful to Li Beichen for proposing the engagement.

The only thing was that… Perhaps she had gone overboard in the heat of the moment.

What would Li Beichen think of her?

Just thinking about it was giving her a headache.

Shi Yuxuan sat on the sofa. Her petite and delicate body leaned back lazily, like a hedgehog ready to attack.

Not knowing when Li Beichen would return, Yuxuan casually glanced outside the door. She didn't know if it was due to frustration or other reasons, her throat felt dry, and her whole body felt uncomfortably hot.

Instantly, her skin was covered in sweat.

Yuxuan glanced at the bottle of vodka on the table before pouring some into the glass and downing it once more. Originally she had thought that it could quench her thirst, but she felt that it was getting hotter.

It was indeed black vodka. The alcohol concentration was so high that it could make someone boil.

However, she felt that something was not quite right. Not to mention, why would Li Beichen place a bottle of alcohol in his office for no reason? Also, she felt that something was off after drinking it.

Where was the water? Why wasn't there any water?

Yuxuan felt uncomfortable from the heat all over her body. And her mind was a little muddled. She glanced at the fish tank in the office and walked over in a few steps. She held it in her hands and sprinkled some water on her face, but she still felt very hot. The burning heat in her couldn't be doused.

Just what in the world was going on? Not only was her body flaming, even her consciousness was starting to get fuzzy.

It was as if he was possessed. Yuxuan directly poured the water from the fish tank down her head.

With a splash, her loose long T-shirt was soaked and pressed tightly against her skin. Her beautiful figure was faintly discernible.

As for the goldfish that had fallen to the floor, they bounced around pathetically. The entire floor was wet and unbearable to look at.

Li Beichen, who had just walked into the President's office, happened to see this scene and his face immediately darkened.

What was wrong with this woman?

Sensing someone behind her, Yuxuan turned around anxiously.

Why was it him?

It was the man she had met in the elevator earlier.

Did he come to the President's office to look for Li Beichen, or did he bear a grudge against her for pressing the elevator to the end and wanted an explanation?

His tall and imposing figure was dressed in a low-profile luxurious suit.

"Shi Yuxuan, what are you doing?"

There was an indescribable coldness between Li Beichen's brows. With both hands in his pockets, he turned his head and looked over. Under the sunlight shining through the French windows, he looked like a powerful and arrogant genius.

Shi Yuxuan froze as she heard his words. How did he know her name?

Seeing that she froze on the spot, Li Beichen narrowed his eyes dangerously.

In the next moment, he strode towards her.

His usually cold eyes were filled with indescribable anger at this moment. It was as if he was going to drown her. "How can I allow my wife to be as impudent as you!"

Li Beichen's words caught Shi Yuxuan off guard, and she shuddered as if she was struck by lightning. The man in front of her was… was Li Beichen!

The president of Yuzun Group, her fiancé!

He stood proudly like a king, his overbearing and ruthless aura pressuring Yuxuan so much she felt like it was hard for her to breathe.
