In the darkness. So quiet.
Along with Ye Jinghuai's heartbeat, in that warm, sleepy moment.
"Aren't you going to ask why I suddenly called for a stop today?" Ye Jinghuai suddenly spoke up.
An Nuan was startled.
It was because of a sudden voice that she was abruptly awakened.
It took her several seconds to react to what he had said.
"I was afraid of aggravating your wound," An Nuan replied plainly.
Sure, she felt disappointed at first.
But she was still rational.
Ye Jinghuai's injury hadn't yet healed. Doing vigorous exercise would clearly tear the wound.
Moreover, Xu Weiming had said it very clearly earlier that Ye Jinghuai's injury was very close to his heart. One careless mistake could truly kill him.
"No," Ye Jinghuai refuted An Nuan. He said, "I was waiting for you to take the initiative and throw yourself into my arms."
"..."
An Nuan laughed contemptuously.
She suddenly felt that being overly confident wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
At least her innocence was preserved.
If Ye Jinghuai hadn't forcibly called for a stop tonight, she might have really given in to him. And after that happened, she was one hundred percent certain that she would regret it.
Regret her own impulsiveness.
No matter how indifferent she was to worldly affairs, she still didn't want her pure body to be so casually taken by just anyone.
She would rather it rot than be ravaged by a man like this.
At this moment, An Nuan didn't bother arguing with Ye Jinghuai.
She had already returned home very late, and after tangling with him for so long, it was already 2 AM. She had to ensure she got enough sleep since there would be many things to do tomorrow, and every day accurately speaking.
She turned over with her back facing Ye Jinghuai, clearly ready to sleep.
But Ye Jinghuai didn't show an ounce of drowsiness at all. He opened his mouth again and asked, "Does getting slapped hurt a lot?"
An Nuan frowned.
Was this guy sleep talking?
Saying all kinds of nonsense.
Ye Jinghuai hugged An Nuan's body. "I suddenly feel that maybe I don't need to wait for you to take the initiative and throw yourself into my arms."
"..."
Men were all dogs.
An Nuan's whole body stiffened because that bastard man was up to no good.
"Ye Jinghuai!" An Nuan said angrily.
Ye Jinghuai tried his best to restrain himself and hugged her tightly, seemingly trying to control himself from moving around or thinking indecent thoughts.
But it was difficult for him not to think impurely while hugging An Nuan's soft body.
"I'm suffocating here," An Nuan said, truly driven mad by Ye Jinghuai.
Ye Jinghuai replied, "Isn't it perfect that you can't vent your desires on me?"
"..." Damn, he was crazy.
Under Ye Jinghuai's torment, An Nuan finally fell asleep.
She was even worried that she might die suffocated in her sleep by him.
In her daze, she seemed to hear Ye Jinghuai say, "An Nuan, I don't want you to regret it..."
Was she dreaming? Or were those words being murmured into her ear by the man beside her?
She was just too tired.
Too tired to even distinguish between reality and dreams.
...
The next day.
An Nuan's alarm clock rang.
Ye Jinghuai turned it off directly.
An Nuan twisted her body slightly, clearly rubbing against him.
Ye Jinghuai's body stiffened.
Who was the one being tortured by letting An Nuan sleep in the same bed?!
He took a deep breath, slowly relaxing himself, hugging the soft An Nuan as he continued to sleep.
When An Nuan woke up, she felt refreshed and energetic.
It felt like she hadn't had such a good sleep in a long time, like she hadn't allowed herself to sleep so soundly in a long time.
She turned her eyes to look at Ye Jinghuai beside her, seemingly still asleep.
She had thought that sleeping with him would make her sleep terribly.
But unexpectedly, she had been sleeping quite well sharing a bed with him all this time.
She wondered if Ye Jinghuai felt the same way?!
The corners of her lips suddenly curved up into a smile.
Just looking at this face that could bring ruin onto someone, her heart felt carefree.
Ye Jinghuai's appearance really gave him an unfair advantage. A man who looked like him, even if women knew he was bad news, knew he was scum, would still attract countless women to him like moths to a flame.
Her finger couldn't help but poke the tall bridge of his nose.
How could someone have such a good-looking nose?
Even plastic surgery wouldn't be able to achieve such perfection.
She stared fixedly at him, from the tip of his nose to his lips.
Sometimes An Nuan would intentionally avoid looking at Ye Jinghuai's mouth.
She always felt this man's lips held a magic that would make women unconsciously want to get closer...
Just like right now.
She had looked at his lips for too long, and it seemed she had already sunk deep.
Otherwise, how could she take the initiative to kiss him?
How could she take the initiative to leave a kiss on his lips?
It was just like a butterfly's touch, simply an expression of fondness for beautiful things.
There was absolutely no other agenda.
The moment she pulled back from the kiss, the back of her head was suddenly grabbed tightly. Accompanying Ye Jinghuai's low male voice was his hoarse words "Not enough".
"Mm-" An Nuan only felt her heart race frantically.
The feel of his lips and tongue completely filled her senses, unable to erase it from her mind.
Ye Jinghuai had kissed An Nuan's lips swollen.
This bastard seemed to really enjoy biting her.
While kissing her, he would suddenly bite her once.
He really was a damn dog!
"Miss An, it's best not to try seducing me first thing in the morning. I can't guarantee that my brother will always listen to my arrangements."
"Brother?" An Nuan frowned.
Ye Jinghuai pulled An Nuan's hand under the covers...
An Nuan's face immediately flushed red.
"Ye Jinghuai, you..."
"Shh." Ye Jinghuai left a kiss on her lips, shamelessly saying, "You have to protect what's yours. Don't scare him."
What a bastard.
Who the hell cares if it's hers or not.
She didn't even know whose it had become, having belonged to so many people already.
She felt her hand was going to rot off.
She hurriedly struggled free from Ye Jinghuai's palm, threw off the covers and went into the bathroom to freshen up. Ye Jinghuai watched An Nuan's back as she fled, an obvious smile on the corners of his lips.
He slowly sat up in bed.
Looking at his muted phone, there were two missed calls, both from Qin Jiang.
He called back. "Qin Jiang."
"Old Xu told you to take it easy. Don't ignore what he said." Qin Jiang spoke bluntly.
"....What's the matter?" Ye Jinghuai didn't bother with Qin Jiang and got straight to the point.
"I've already looked into the three companies you asked me to investigate yesterday. I've also identified the people from An Shi who signed the contracts. Should I kidnap them now and have them testify in court, or..."
"Don't take reckless action for now. It would do more harm than good if we startled the snake. " Ye Jinghuai instructed, "Have someone keep tabs on their whereabouts, don't let them suddenly disappear. Also, in order to make them tell the truth in court, find some dirt on them to force them to follow our arrangements. I'm worried the other side has already bought them off."
"Got it."
"Right, investigate Wei Daguo thoroughly..."
"Ah!" Ye Jinghuai's ears were about to go deaf.
An Nuan, who had come out of the bathroom to grab her phone, suddenly screamed.
On the other end, Qin Jiang was also startled. He couldn't help but ask, "Did you make her climax that hard?!"
