”Boss, it's the CEO of the Zhao Group, Zhao Dongcheng.”

He did not expect that Zhang Hai's sister would actually know the CEO of the Zhao Group, Zhao Dongcheng. The corners of his mouth curled up, and suddenly, a touch of recklessness appeared on the corner of his mouth that would cause others to tremble as he said, ”The woman I like, how could I let others touch her, and have the people below force her to hand over Lan Shiling?”

”Yes sir!”

Halfway up the mountain, Lan Shiling was in her villa. She had just finished her shower and changed. She was smoking a pair of slippers as she headed for Zhao Dongcheng's room.

”Knock knock knock knock.” A light knock on the door. Instantly, Zhao Dongcheng, dressed in casual clothes, pushed the door open and walked out. Shi Ling, what's wrong? ”

Standing by the door, afraid, Lan Shiling hesitated for a long time before slowly saying, ”Director Zhao, if you help me, will it bring you trouble?”

If he knew that Zhao Dongcheng had saved her, would he take revenge on her? Although she did not know how terrifying the underworld's power was, she had more or less seen it on television, so she did not want Zhao Dongcheng to save her out of good will, only provoking unnecessary trouble.

Because Zhang Hai was her brother, she could bear with it no matter what. However, Zhao Dongcheng was neither related nor close to her, so she did not need to suffer.

Hearing this, Zhao Dongcheng finally understood the reason for the worry and hesitation on her face. Smiling, he said, ”Don't worry, no one will know about this place. Furthermore, this is not a house under my name. Moreover, our Zhao Clan is not a scoundrel, how could he, a small young master Ge overtake us? ”

There was trouble, but he believed that he could handle all of it. Lan Shiling was just a woman, how could she resist a mafia boss? No matter what, he was still the president of a corporation. Pushing a woman out was not something he could do.

She knew how terrifying that Young Master Ge was. If she did not smash her head against him with all her might and escape while he was in pain, she might have been eaten by that person to the point where not even her bones would remain. I'm sorry, I've implicated you. ”

A pained expression appeared on Zhao Dongcheng's handsome face as he gently said, ”How could that be? Uncle Li will be here to take care of you. Stay here and don't go back to that house for now.” He turned around and returned to his room. Picking up the bottle of ointment, he handed it to Lan Shi Ling and said, ”Wipe this ointment on your wounds. When you wake up tomorrow, the lump on your forehead will disappear.”

Lan Shiling was a person who valued blessings. Otherwise, she wouldn't have forgiven Zhang Hai for harming her time and time again. Zhao Dongcheng wasn't a close relative or friend of hers, but he could still help her without caring about anything else. How could she not be grateful?

A grateful smile appeared on her face as she received the ointment. She nodded and said seriously, ”No matter what, I still thank you very much. Really, thank you. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have known …” As he said this, he couldn't help but choke. The tears that he had held back for a long time finally began to roll down his face, wetting it.

Sighing lightly, Zhao Dongcheng's handsome face tightened up in pain. He didn't know why, but the second time he saw her, he was affected by every single emotion in Lan Shi Ling's heart. Her perseverance and stubbornness made his heart ache, and his tears burned his heart.

He couldn't help but reach out his hand to gently grasp the back of Lan Shiling's head. He hugged her tightly and comforted her with gentle words.

With the support and the warmth, the tears that Lan Shi Ling had been trying her best to hold in were like pearls that fell off. They dripped onto the man's chest, wetting his clothes. However, the man felt his heart tighten.

From the beginning of the wailing sound, it gradually turned into a wailing sound. The grievance that filled Lan Shiling's stomach instantly surged out. She did not know why Zhang Hai could be so patient with her even though he was her brother.

Before, he had always told her to sell it, but never once did he trick her into going to a bar like this. When she was facing Young Master Ge, she forcefully endured the pain and sadness in her heart, and at this moment, she still couldn't bear the pain and suffering in her heart. Perhaps, she would feel better if she cried as hard as she could.

Zhao Dongcheng gently caressed Lan Shiling's back. However, as the wailing gradually faded away, he lowered his head and saw the unconscious little face in his arms. He couldn't help but chuckle. A gentleness that even he did not notice appeared in his eyes.

His nerves were stretched taut the whole night. He was frightened and he cried so hard that he had to expend a lot of energy. It was normal for him to faint from crying this time. Zhao Dongcheng held Lan Shiling by the waist and strode towards the room where Lan Shiling was staying.

As the night darkened, the darkness was gradually replaced by the day. The first rays of the morning sun cut across the horizon, shining through the clouds and illuminating the entire horizon.

The sunlight passed through the light blue curtains on the ground and reflected on the quiet little face hidden under the snow-white bedding. Her long eyelashes lightly fell on her eyelids, casting a faint shadow.
