The chauffeur looked at Yan Rusheng with an expectant expression .
"Drive," Yan Rusheng instructed him coldly .
The children's laughter invaded his ears mercilessly, and he closed the car windows to shut out the noise . As the car left the orphanage, he didn't turn to look back at all .
. . .
Zhou Shuang sent Xuxu back home and dropped her off outside the entrance of the courtyard . It was already late in the evening as the children had refused to let them leave earlier on .
She stood outside the courtyard and peered at the mansion . She was rather startled to see that the lights in the study on the second floor were still lit .
Did he come back?

"Miss, welcome home . "
Xuxu was still staring into the distance when the butler opened the doors and greeted her warmly with a smile .
She snapped out of her thoughts and nodded politely at the butler, then walked towards the courtyard .
It had been a week since she left the place, and a strange and unfamiliar feeling crept past her as she stepped into the courtyard .
Standing in the middle of the courtyard, she scanned her surroundings . She thought rather mockingly to herself that this grand mansion and everything inside it truly didn't belong to her .
So unfamiliar . . . isn't this how I'm supposed to feel?
She strode towards the house that had provided her with warmth but had also given her sorrow .

"Miss, you're finally back . "
Xuxu changed into her bedroom slippers and had just entered the living room when she met Aunt Zhang coming down from the stairs .
Aunt Zhang looked at her with knitted eyebrows, a worried expression on her face .
"What happened?" Xuxu paused for a second before she guessed what the problem was .
Yan Rusheng must be back and had thrown a tantrum when he saw that she wasn't home yet .
"Third Young Master is back, and he asked if you came home these few . . . " Aunt Zhang stammered and then stopped half-way . Xuxu knew that she was worried .
She smiled and reassured her, "I got it, don't worry . "
She went up the stairs and headed towards the room that she used to stay in when she was younger .
She decided to take a shower and change her clothes for now .
She didn't plan on leaving the room, so she locked the door before entering the bathroom . Since she didn't bring a change of pajamas into the bathroom, she went back into the bedroom wrapped in a towel .
She opened the door and walked out, and as she turned around . . . a terrified expression crossed her face .
"You . . . !"
She opened her mouth, but before she could utter another word, a towering figure had appeared right in front of her . His strong arms were wrapped tightly around her tiny body .
Without giving her a chance to react, they both collapsed on the soft bed .
Xuxu caught a whiff of alcohol and frowned as she turned her face away . "Yan Rusheng, what are you trying to do?"
She gripped his shoulders nervously as she tried to push him back, struggling to escape .
"We're husband and wife, so what do you think I'm trying to do?" Yan Rusheng narrowed his eyes wickedly as he stared at Xuxu . His lips curled into a contemptuous smile . "Tonight, let me see how pure you really are . "
With that statement, he lowered his head and forcefully pressed his mouth against Xuxu's alluring rosy lips in a domineering way .
The scent of blood spread through their mouths .
But he didn't stop—instead he became more aggressive as he grabbed the towel and pulled it away from her body .
With the towel gone, he lowered his head to admire her alluring figure .
"No . . . !" Xuxu frowned as she cried out desperately . She tried to push away this man who seemed to have lost his mind . "Yan Rusheng, please, I beg you! No, please don't!"
