Chapter 1 The Attitude of Asking for Help (1)
"Want to save your fiancé? Sure, what can you offer in exchange?"
"Money? Sorry, money is the least of my concerns."
"How about I give you a suggestion, and you exchange it with your body..."

The night was quiet, the air slowly carried a hint of chill, yet standing at the entrance of 'Dynasty', Dong Xin Yan felt nothing. Her large, clear eyes were slightly dazed, just staring blankly at her palm.
The dazzling multi-colored lights at the entrance of 'Dynasty' reflected onto the square room card in her palm, as if coated with a thin layer of gold, extremely beautiful. But in Dong Xin Yan's eyes, it was utterly humiliating.
She stared at the room card for quite a while, her red lips pressed heavily together, then suddenly clenched her hand tightly, lifted it, and forcefully threw the room card to the ground. She then lifted her head, straightened her back, and, stepping in sharp high heels, walked a few steps to her car, opened the door, got in, closed the door, started the engine, pressed the accelerator, and the car sped away.
Five minutes later, the car backed to its original spot, Dong Xin Yan opened the door and got out, walked to where the discarded room card lay, lowered her large eyes, and stared intently at the room card, her beautiful features almost crumpling together.
If she could, she really wanted to leave in style like this, or even to throw the room card back onto Gu Ningyi's maliciously handsome face and tell him to scram with cold elegance.
But reality was...
Dong Xin Yan slowly bent her knees, squatted down, extended her slender, beautiful fingers, picked up the room card from the ground, inch by inch clenching it back into her palm. The corners of the room card pricked her palm, but she took no notice, and finally, she closed her eyes powerlessly.
