Chen Xiao swallowed hard.
She really knew what she was doing. A complete natural! He’d find it hard to believe she wasn’t doing this on purpose. A flush of heat spread through his body. After all, this woman had dangled the bait so many tis. If he let her get away again, what kind of man would he be? He had completely let go of his inhibitions now. In life, being carefree and happy was what mattered most. When he was still married to Luo Qingli, he might have restrained himself a little. But now, he was a free man, no longer bound by so many rules.
"What are you spacing out for?" Zhang Yaqing turned her head and gave him a sultry, sidelong glance. That look was filled with an alluring charm that was seductive to the bone.
Chen Xiao walked over, approaching her from behind, and started pulling her zipper down.
"Okay, that’s enough," Zhang Yaqing sighed in relief.
But Chen Xiao didn’t stop; he continued pulling the zipper all the way down.
"AHH—" Zhang Yaqing shrieked, hastily clutching the front of her dress as it loosened. "What are you doing?"
"MMPH—" The next second, he pressed her against the wall.
He domineeringly took everything he desired. Soon, Zhang Yaqing’s breathing grew rapid.
After a very long ti, the two finally separated.
Zhang Yaqing licked her red lips, her eyes sultry. "Your kissing has improved, hmm? Looks like you’ve been getting cozy with so young ladies recently?"
Chen Xiao’s eyes glead with fervor as he retorted, "Jealous?"
"Playboy!" Zhang Yaqing muttered, drumming her fists lightly against his chest.
Chen Xiao scooped her into his arms, walked into the bathroom, and kicked the door shut.
Soon, the bathroom was filled with steam.
This five-star hotel really is sothing else, he marveled. The bathtub... is huge.
He took a sharp breath, his palm gently stroking Zhang Yaqing’s hair.
Much later, on the spacious bed, Zhang Yaqing shyly grabbed a thin blanket to cover the essential parts of her body, exposing only a pair of long, fair legs. A crimson blush stained her cheeks. Although she had ntally prepared herself, she was still incredibly nervous at this mont.
She bit her lip. "Turn off the lights!"
The room went dark, filled only with the sound of rapid breathing.
Zhang Yaqing’s voice trembled as she bit hard on his shoulder. "Don’t be too rough."
Chen Xiao smirked wickedly. "I’m afraid later you’ll complain I’m not rough enough."
"We can talk about that when we get there. The road hasn’t even been paved and you’re already trying to go two hundred miles an hour?" Zhang Yaqing’s slender arms wrapped around his neck as she teased him, her voice bewitching. "By the way, I’ve been on the pill these past few days. You... don’t have to hold back."
For the first ti, she wanted this man to possess her completely, without any reservations.
...
An unknown amount of ti passed.
Zhang Yaqing kicked Chen Xiao away in mock annoyance. Her brows were slightly furrowed, her expression a mixture of pleasure and pain. "Still not enough? Are you made of iron?"
From noon until night... did this guy not know the aning of exhaustion?
Chen Xiao felt a little helpless himself. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to be gentle... it was just that this vixen was too damn enchanting.
Zhang Yaqing struggled to sit up, wrapping herself in a thin robe. She moved a bit awkwardly as she poured herself a glass of water. She had now truly witnessed Chen Xiao’s terrifying stamina. But... overall, the experience hadn’t been bad at all.
It was a case of the first taste leaving one craving more.
Chen Xiao lay on the bed, letting his mind go blank. "What suddenly brought you to Zhonghai?"
"I ca to handle so business," Zhang Yaqing said, her eyes narrowing slightly, "and to see you."
"How did you know I was in Zhonghai?"
"Where there’s a will, there’s a way, right?" Zhang Yaqing said with a teasing smile. "Did you think you were the only one thinking of ?"
Chen Xiao chuckled. The best hunters always appear as prey. This ti, it was hard to say who had devoured whom.
After taking a deep breath, he asked again, "So, what business brings you to Zhonghai this ti?"
Zhang Yaqing spoke calmly, "The company has run into so problems trying to break into the overseas market. Soone is deliberately stonewalling us."
"The two formulas you gave fall under the category of pharmaceuticals. Therefore, to be sold overseas, they need to pass an audit from the International dical Alliance and et their standards."
"There’s definitely no problem with our dicine, but it seems soone is pulling strings behind the scenes. Because of that, we failed the audit this ti and were flat-out rejected."
"The International dical Alliance?" Chen Xiao’s heart skipped a beat.
"Exactly. That organization is extrely powerful. It dominates the dical field and holds considerable authority. However, its leadership is mostly composed of foreigners, which puts us from the Divine Land at a significant disadvantage."
"The one stonewalling us this ti is one of the five permanent committee mbers of the International dical Alliance, William Dodge. I heard he just brought his team to Zhonghai, so I rushed over."
"By the way, I heard your ex-wife ran into the sa problem. That’s why you saw her at the airport today. She’s probably here for the sa reason I am."
Hearing this, Chen Xiao’s expression grew complicated. "Things were going so well. Why bring her up?"
Zhang Yaqing giggled, settling onto his lap. "It seems the man with Luo Qingli today made you jealous?"
"Can you not ruin the mood?" Chen Xiao grumbled, flipping her over and pushing her down onto the mattress.
Zhang Yaqing struggled. "I have plans tonight, I can’t..."
But her struggles were in vain. In the end, she had no choice but to give in.
Over an hour later, Zhang Yaqing lay limply on the bed, her pretty face flushed as she panted heavily. She kicked him with mock anger. "You really are a brute who only thinks with his lower body! I’m all swollen! How am I supposed to go out when I can barely walk straight?"
Chen Xiao just chuckled, secretly pleased with himself. He lit a cigarette. "Just postpone your plans. Take a couple of days to rest."
Zhang Yaqing shot him a coquettish glance. "Are you sure I’ll get any chance to rest with you around?"
Chen Xiao grinned broadly.
Zhang Yaqing spoke again, "I’m telling you about Luo Qingli because I don’t want to hide things from you. What you decide to do is your business. I know you’re a loyal and righteous man; you probably won’t just stand by and do nothing."
Chen Xiao was silent for a mont before replying flatly, "She has another man by her side now. Why would she need my help?" The image of Luo Qingli accepting flowers from that man and getting into his car made his stomach churn with discomfort.
Zhang Yaqing laughed to herself. This clueless man really didn’t understand won. Only she understood Luo Qingli’s motives. If Luo Qingli truly didn’t care about him anymore, she would never have put on such a display right in front of him. But she couldn’t be bothered with their affairs. She just wanted to stay by this man’s side and enjoy these tender monts. She knew full well that if Chen Xiao could feel absolutely nothing for Luo Qingli so soon after their divorce, he wouldn’t be the loyal and righteous man she’d fallen for.
「Later that night, in a quiet bar in Zhonghai.」
Qin Lan and Luo Qingli were both slightly tipsy. Heartbroken, Luo Qingli downed glass after glass of wine, pouring out her troubles to Qin Lan.
Seeing her good friend so dejected, Qin Lan felt a pang of sympathy. Thinking about her own relationship with Chen Xiao, she was overco with sha.
"Sister Lan, do you think... I really can’t compare to that woman, Zhang Yaqing?" Luo Qingli asked with a bitter smile. "On the night of the Sail Raising Conference, I waited outside his villa all night. I didn’t see him return until the next day... Do you have any idea how much that hurt?"
"He didn’t consider my feelings at all and went to et her. It was after that night that I decided to set him free. But now I find... I don’t think I can live without him. Am I just a glutton for punishnt?"
"The night of the Sail Raising Conference?" Qin Lan’s heart trembled as she recalled what had happened that evening. After a pause, she said, "Qingli, there’s sothing I need to tell you."
"That night... Chen Xiao actually ca to find !"
Hearing this, Luo Qingli’s pupils widened in shock.
