Danielle immediately became red-eyed and wanted to say yes, but she was really a waste with no talent, and when she opened her mouth, nothing came out.
"Mom, Dad, you guys talk," Chu Hong felt extremely annoyed, and without thinking, she shouted.
"Shut up!"
Wang Dazhuang smiled awkwardly. "That Danielle, you see, if it weren't for you, Chu Xiong wouldn't have been abandoned by Miss Mei'er."
When he mentioned Jin Mei'er, Wang Dazhuang looked particularly regretful.
"Even as compensation, you should contribute some dowry."
Danielle suddenly realized and looked at him. "Oh, so he chose me as a second choice? Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Wang Dazhuang and the others were confused.
Danielle smiled, "I'm very familiar with the head of the Jin family. If he wanted Mei'er, he could have told me earlier. I can send him directly to Mei'er's bed."
"Really?" Wang Dazhuang's eyes lit up.
But Chu Hong frowned.
"No, you promised to marry me..."
Before she could finish, Chu Xiong interrupted, his voice trembling. "Dad!"
He would never forget the luxurious residence of the Jin family and all the servants. Choosing Danielle felt like the best option, but now that there was a better one, his heart wavered.
Danielle gave him a mocking look. "You all think carefully, I'll give you five minutes, just five minutes."
She raised her wrist and looked at the time.
Before ten seconds passed, Chu Xiong's impatient voice was heard.
"I want to marry Jin Mei'er."
"Chu Xiong!" Chu Hong was angry.
How could her son be like this?
Wang Dazhuang tugged at her arm. "Wife, that's the Jin family! If our son marries there, we'll be connected to the Jin family."
The two middle-aged men sitting next to Chu Hong had different expressions—one looked moved, the other disdainful.
Danielle curiously observed their family. It was really interesting.
Chu Hong hesitated for a long time and finally sighed. "Danielle, I'm sorry, this is my other two sons, Chu Yi and Chu Feng. How about...?"
Danielle looked at the two simple-minded young men and shook her head slightly.
"No, actually, I have high standards. If it weren't for you using tricks, heh."
Danielle didn't show any respect for the Chu family, but because of the promise Danielle made, no one from the Chu family dared to argue back.
Danielle sneered. "Since you've made a choice, the matter from last time is over."
She gestured with her hand, and Chu Xiong had already been recorded by the guards.
He said Danielle had molested him, with a three-month deadline, which could only be canceled by himself. If not, the guards would come and cause trouble for Danielle.
Chu Xiong bit his lip forcefully. "I... I'll cancel it after I enter the Jin family."
He was afraid Danielle was tricking him.
Danielle sneered and directly contacted Zachary.
"Danielle? Why are you thinking of me?" Zachary's expression was extremely surprised, and Jin Baiwei, who stood beside him, looked thoughtful.
Danielle directly stated her idea, pulling Chu Xiong to show him clearly.
"Do you remember him? Can you help me send him to your sister?"
Zachary slightly squinted. "Are you serious?"
Danielle nodded. "Yes, can you?"
"No problem, I'll notify Mei'er to come get him."
Zachary readily agreed, and Chu Xiong's face turned red immediately.
Danielle nodded, ended the call, and looked at Chu Xiong.
"Did you hear that? Can we cancel it now? Otherwise, I can just not send anyone."
Now the control was back in Danielle's hands. After hesitating for a while, Chu Xiong finally, unwillingly, tapped "cancel" on his wristband.
Danielle waved her hand casually and walked out hand-in-hand with Zachary.
"Wishing you happiness."
Not long after they returned, a spaceship landed next door from the sky.
Danielle saw Chu Xiong happily running off and shook her head slightly.
"Do you think he'll survive?"
Zachary pulled her into his arms tightly by the waist, so hard that Danielle gasped.
"What? You feel sorry for him now?"
Danielle twisted around and saw the man's displeased eyes. Without saying anything, she kissed him passionately.
That kiss was full of emotion, and Zachary's annoyance instantly disappeared.
As Zachary's kisses slowly moved downward, Danielle responded, wrapping her arms around his neck.
Suddenly, a little head poked out of the room. "Mommy, Daddy, what are you doing? Rain is hungry."
Danielle quickly pushed Zachary away, and his face darkened.
Through gritted teeth, he said, "I kind of regret having this little thing."
Danielle laughed and glared at him.
"What are you saying? Hurry up and cook for your son."
Knock knock knock.
The door was knocked on.
Holding little Rain, Danielle curiously went to open it.
It was that guy, Fang Ming, again. Danielle's expression turned cold.
"What now? Captain Fang found another reason to bother me?"
Fang Ming gave a cold snort. "According to higher orders, all residents of Xiuhe District must undergo blood testing."
Even though he didn't know why the Ning family gave such an order, it didn't matter. He was just following instructions.
Danielle frowned. "What blood test? I don't agree."
It sounded suspicious. It reminded her of things from her past life—organ harvesting, human experimentation, things like that.
Fang Ming looked scornful. "You think your disagreement matters? This is an order from the Ning family, one of the Eight Great Houses."
He stepped forward to take action, but Danielle wasn't scared. If he wanted a fight, she was ready. He was not leaving with her blood today.
Suddenly, a figure dropped from the sky. Danielle felt an overwhelming pressure that almost made her unable to move.
Zachary appeared at her side, shielding her and Rain behind him.
"Who are you?"
The man who arrived was arrogant, powerful—the strongest Danielle had ever seen.
His snake-like eyes stared at Zachary with interest.
"Teleportation ability?"
His tone held doubt since teleportation was extremely rare.
Zachary forced himself not to back down. "No, wall-phasing."
Long Xi sneered. "Ah, wall-phasing. A pretty useless ability."
Then he turned his eyes toward Danielle—his gaze full of desire and aggression.
"No wonder they call you the most beautiful woman. You really are like a goddess."
Fang Ming tried to butter him up. "Sir Long, we have a task from above, so…"
Long Xi shot Fang Ming a cold look. Fang Ming spat out blood and collapsed.
"So noisy."
After dealing with Fang Ming, Long Xi looked at Danielle again, eyes practically stripping her.
He extended his hand, and two transparent glass vials appeared.
"Miss Danielle, please. If you don't cooperate, don't blame me."
He was also here for Danielle's blood.
Danielle grew more nervous inside.
Seeing she didn't move, Long Xi frowned in annoyance and reached out directly…
