Arrested for impersonating a powerful figure's girlfriend, but forced into a formal relationshi

Yunmiao's throat was so tight that she could hardly speak.

"Sorry, Assistant Xu, we're actually just here to see a classmate..."

Before she could finish speaking, Xu Chuan waved to the security guard beside him.

Security personnel, come quickly!

"Whoever they're looking for, get them out safely later."

The security guard nodded repeatedly.

Xu Chuan's gaze returned to Yun Miao: "Please come in."

Now that things had come to this, Yunmiao realized that there was absolutely no way to turn things around.

Suppressing her fear, she forced herself to nod and said, "Okay."

Jiang Xiao and Xia Xixi wanted to say something, but she stopped them with a look.

"Find Lin Shuhe first."

Stepping through the gates of Yongxi Pavilion, Yun Miao followed Xu Chuan through the long corridors and ancient pavilions in the courtyard, arriving at the main building of Yongxi Pavilion.

Earlier, while she was outside, she had already learned some background information about Sheng Yinian from Jiang Xiao.

In the capital, the order of senior families was never written down, but everyone knew it in their hearts.

If one were to insist on ranking them into different tiers, no one would doubt that the Sheng family is at the very top of the pyramid.

What has kept the Sheng family firmly at the top is Sheng Yunian.

In his early years, he built his own business empire overseas, which was already comparable in size to the Sheng family.

Two years ago, my father passed away suddenly. Various forces joined forces to set up a scheme, hoping to take advantage of the Sheng family's leaderlessness.

Sheng Yunian returned to China and cleaned up his own household.

The power structure of the aristocratic families in the capital was reshuffled.

In two years, he propelled the Sheng family to unprecedented heights.

Above the lintel, it became even more magnificent and dazzling.

From Jiang Xiao's brief description, Yun Miao sensed the impending bloodshed and turmoil.

The thought of facing such a ruthless and powerful person made her heart clench with nervousness.

What to do?

I need a tutorial on how to survive.

The elevator slowly ascended to the twelfth floor.

Yunmiao followed Xu Chuan out of the elevator and arrived at a carved wooden door.

Without giving her much time to prepare, Xu Chuan pushed open the door.

The private room was spacious, and there was no smoky or alcoholic atmosphere inside; only a faint aroma of tea wafted through the air.

Looking inside, the first thing that caught Yunmiao's eye was a row of long sofas.

Several men sat on the sofa, talking quietly amidst the rising steam of tea. Their attire and manners were all distinguished.

Looking inside, a card table is set up in the middle of the private room.

Before Yun Miao could take a closer look, Xu Chuan's voice rang out from the side.

"Mr. Sheng, your girlfriend is here."

After he finished speaking, the entire private room fell silent.

Yunmiao's mind went blank for a moment.

This Assistant Xu seems meticulous, so why is he so unreliable?

Aren't you going to verify this at all?

She's a fake!

I thought I'd come in and see what happens, but I never expected it to start like this.

After a brief moment of astonishment, everyone's gazes turned to the man at the head of the card table.

Yunmiao also looked over.

She recognized the man in the main seat at a glance as Sheng Yinian, whom she had seen on Xia Xixi's phone earlier.

He leaned back in his chair, his posture relaxed yet his aura imposing.

The impact of a person's superior and three-dimensional facial features is many times stronger than that of a photograph.

At the card table, a man sitting by the window took a sip of tea and asked with a playful tone, "When did you get a girlfriend?"

Sheng Yinian smiled faintly, offered no explanation, and simply lifted his eyelids to look over.

"Since you're here, come sit down."

Upon meeting his gaze, Yun Miao's legs immediately went weak.

The waiter, with keen insight, added a chair next to the man.

Yunmiao looked at the chair, her feet feeling like they were filled with lead, too heavy to move.

She subconsciously looked towards the door and found Xu Chuan standing behind her, gesturing for her to enter.

With no way out, Yunmiao had to force herself to calm down.

Given the current situation, we can only take it one step at a time.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she pretended to be calm and walked towards the card table, carefully sitting down in the chair next to Sheng Yinian.

She nervously gripped her knees, completely clueless about what to do next.

Sheng Yinian glanced at her sideways, then slowly tossed out a card, and the private room instantly returned to its previous state.

Some drank tea, some played cards, as if nothing had happened.

Yunmiao's tension was also relieved somewhat.

Even though the man next to her was sitting, you could tell he was very tall.

Beneath the black shirt and trousers, the smooth lines of the skin were faintly visible, making it easy to imagine how strong the slender muscles beneath the clothes were.

Her gaze dared not wander, nor did she know where to place it.

The man was arranging cards, his wrist slightly raised, his shirt sleeve slipping down a little, revealing a watch that complemented his wrist bone, exuding a restrained elegance.

Yunmiao's gaze seemed to have found its place, landing on the man's watch, and unconsciously moving with the movement of his wrist.

A short while later, the man stopped playing cards and turned to face her.

A crisp, refreshing scent wafted over; it smelled pleasant, but it was too overpowering.

Yunmiao unconsciously shrank back: "What's wrong?"

Sheng Yinian's gaze lingered on her face for a moment before he unfastened his watch, took it off, and handed it to her.

Yunmiao hesitated slightly.

Did he... think she was interested in the watch, so he handed it to her to play with?

Fine.

It's quite awkward for her to sit here with nothing to do.

"Thanks."

She took the watch, still warm from the man's body, and held it in her palm.

At that moment, she suddenly felt that this man named Sheng Yinian was not as... scary as Jiang Xiao had said.

"Buzz".

Yunmiao's phone vibrated, and she quietly opened it to take a look.

It was a message from Xia Xixi saying that Lin Shuhe had been safely evacuated.

She replied briefly, put away her phone, and settled down to play with the watch.

It has to be said that this watch truly captured her heart.

At that moment, in the corner of the private room, on a single sofa, a young man wearing a light pink shirt curled his lips and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Is this Sheng Yunian's woman?
