Yet, due to recent overwork, my illness has flared up again. A hospital examination confirmed it's a terminal condition, and I truly believe I won't be staying on this earth much longer. Therefore, I can only wish you all the best—go with strength, go with 88s! I can no longer accompany you. From now on, you must take care of yourself. I'll be sending you blessings from heaven! Three of my friends at the time didn’t understand—instead of resolving the issues through dialogue, they insisted on using force and even challenged me, saying that if such incidents happened every week, the hotel might as well close down! At that moment, I was simply thinking from the customer’s perspective. As long as customers were satisfied, I was willing to temporarily give up my immediate benefits. Yet, not a single person stood by me! Gao Liang, do I really make the right decisions? I’ve been hesitant to share this matter in my weekly work reports, sending them directly to your email. I don’t know why I always call you "my husband," but I just keep doing it—tell you about it! Today, I learned the recipe for the dish "Flowers in Full Bloom, Moon in Its Prime, and Peace and Prosperity" from the head chef. I played a little trick—I added one extra step and one additional ingredient to the chef’s original preparation. Guess what? When both versions were served at the same time, a major customer actually preferred my version, saying my dish was the most authentic. As a result, he has started coming in regularly, which really touches me. While I continue to carefully manage the hotel, I’m also diligently improving my culinary skills. Over time, this dish has truly grown better and better—everyone now loves it. Even the hotel’s service staff say: “Ms. Owner’s signature dish—Flowers in Full Bloom, Moon in Its Prime, and Peace and Prosperity! Please try it!” I feel so confident—this shows that as long as you put your heart into something, it only gets better with time, no matter what you’re doing! … Chen Yuting’s diary was filled to the brim, with elegant, smooth, and fresh handwriting. Reading these words, Chen’s heart raced and her emotions surged. “Wife! I never thought that over the past six months, while I’ve been away from you, you’ve made so many sacrifices for me. No—definitely, I must find you. No matter what your current situation is, I will treat you well and take full responsibility for you!” Moved deeply by Chen Yuting’s diligence, reliability, intelligence, and grace, Gao Liang set down the diary and turned to the resignation letter. As he gently shook the envelope, a small note fell out. He picked it up and noticed a delicate line of writing. His face turned pale instantly. He immediately picked up the phone and called his three closest friends: “Get moving! Head straight to Zhou Chao’s luxurious home in Kaifu, where he’s been renting a residence at Kyoto University!” The three friends responded promptly and quickly set off toward the location Gao Liang had specified. The scene shifts to the luxurious mansion of Kuaixiao Lin. Chen Yuting is bound to a chair, while in front of her, four figures resembling devils—Zhou Chao and his three brothers, Liu Qiang, Wang Lei, and Luo Qi—surround her, chuckling darkly. Zhou Chao gazes at Chen Yuting's magnificent bust, his face flushed with lust and fury, while Chen Yuting stares back at him with blazing anger, her voice hoarse as she says, "Zhou Chao, what you're doing will surely lead to nothing good!" "Hahaha!" Zhou Chao bursts into laughter, turning to Chen Yuting and saying, "I'm envious of Gao Liang! I'm also deeply frustrated—Gao Liang hasn't been close to you for half a year! I don't believe it! Hmph! But why are you so persistent? Gao Liang is a man of many loves; why do you still remain chaste for him? Tell me! Why? Why? Is it worth it?" Chen Yuting looks at Zhou Chao with a look of disdain and replies, "Zhou Chao, there are many things you simply don't understand. Great! He's all talk about being responsible to you—absolute nonsense! I'm going to take you right now! Make you my woman! I'm truly jealous of Gao Liang. He's got one woman after another, all beautiful ones. Even the plain ducklings who used to follow him have turned into swans. As for me, I've gone from phoenix to sparrow—chaos, complete breakdown! Hah! Gao Liang hasn't been in Jinshu City for half a year now, and this time, I'm going to have my way! Zhou Chao said this, then stripped off his shirt, revealing his rugged, bumpy chest. Chen Yuting gasped, but immediately had her mouth covered by Zhou Chao with a towel. He then ordered his three younger brothers to strip Chen Yuting completely, so that he could personally violate her right there, and then have the three brothers take turns with her. How cruel, how bloody, how violent—such beastly behavior—making everyone feel that Zhou Chao wasn't just a cannibal, but a true, genuine color-mad lover. Chen Yuting, weeping, whispered to Gao Liang in her heart: "Husband! I'm leaving After speaking these words, he would immediately cut his own throat. At that moment, suddenly, a gatekeeper outside the mansion shouted with a voice torn by urgency: "There's a fire! There's a fire!" Zhou Chao heard it and instantly grew panic-stricken. He ordered his third younger brother to check on the situation, while himself continued to exert his relentless pressure on Chen Yuting. "Tell me! As long as you agree to be my wife, I'll let you go!" Zhou Chao held the dagger at arm's length, his mind utterly consumed with frenzy, staring directly into Chen Yuting's face. Yet Chen Yuting showed no fear at all. With a firmness that seemed to drive two sharp swords through Zhou Chao's heart, she spat out just two words: "Forget it!" Zhou Chao revealed his fierce, wolf-like teeth—wild, primal, like those of a man-eating wolf. Zhou Chao had long since transcended the ordinary; now, before Chen Yuting, he towered over her, radiating the very essence of a werewolf—fierce, untamed, and predatory. It had been a long time since he last consumed a human. This time, for a beautiful woman like Chen Chen Yuting would never allow herself to fall into Zhou Chao’s hands—someone whose face was fine but whose heart was beastly. To Zhou Chao, she said, “Even if I die, I will remain a person of Gao Liang!” Zhou Chao was utterly furious. For, in his heart, he was deeply fragile—he could tolerate anyone else, but never Gao Liang. It was precisely because of Gao Liang that he felt constantly overshadowed and defeated. What about himself? Where was he falling short of Gao Liang? Why, then, did Gao Liang always succeed while he kept stumbling? No more—he would act now, while Gao Liang was away and had overlooked this beautiful Chen Yuting. He would strike first. With a cunning move, he swiftly pressed a specific acupoint on Chen Yuting’s body, and instantly, she lost control, unable to speak or move, even as she desperately tried to bite her tongue to die. “Hah! You want to die? Forget it! Today, I’m making you my wife! How can Gao Liang possess so many beautiful women when I have none? Zhang Yупing, Dong Jiao, and you—none No, you're mine! I can't stand having Highlight with so many beautiful women. I'm going to start with you! Hahaha!" Zhou Chao has always been envious of Highlight's numerous female admirers, feeling intense jealousy that drives him crazy. Now, it's time for Zhou Chao to assert his dominance. Chen Yuting wept, yet her body remained completely still—no wonder, as Zhou Chao, a mid-level powerhouse, could effortlessly control and dominate any beautiful woman. Just as Zhou Chao's hands were reaching out, a commotion erupted outside. It was the sound of intense fighting. "Boss! It's bad! It's bad! The Fenghuo Hall people have stormed in!" It was Liu Qiang's voice. "Highlight's three younger brothers have arrived, each of them highly skilled in martial arts, and growing stronger every day! We're no match for them!" Luo Qi and Wang Lei stumbled, nearly colliding with the wall, as they urgently reported to Zhou Chao. 81 hand-knitted sweater sets and personal diary entries have brought tears to my eyes. Yuzheng, you are truly a wonderful wife—quietly dedicating yourself to me. I will definitely take good care of you. High Bright feels deeply remorseful and resolves to make up for what he has missed.
