Nightclub, a dim corner.
An Nuan looked at Ye Jinghuai warily as he stood tall in front of her.
He reeked of alcohol, with a faint scent of tobacco.
She used to always think men who smoked were so smelly.
Back then, she was glad Gu Yan Sheng didn't smoke.
She thought Gu Yan Sheng was the cleanest man in the world.
Immaculate, not fond of drinking, didn't smoke or gamble.
Always polite to everyone.
Now she knew, some people's vileness started from the unseen internal organs.
Her throat moved slightly.
She didn't know what Ye Jinghuai was about to do suddenly.
The feeling was clearly different from tonight in her backyard at home.
Although Ye Jinghuai was also angry at that time, it wasn't like now. It couldn't simply be described as anger, it was...full of danger.
Yet the tobacco smell on him didn't make her feel disgusted. On the contrary, it gave off a masculine pheromone.
Ye Jinghuai.
Really a devil in human form.
"Miss An." Ye Jinghuai's magnetic voice was captivatingly pleasant to hear. "Stuck out your tongue yet?"
"Huh?" An Nuan was baffled.
She didn't know what Ye Jinghuai's sudden words meant at all.
At that moment, she suddenly felt a soft lip kissing her mouth.
An Nuan tensed up all over.
She just stared at Ye Jinghuai for a long time without any reaction.
Eyes wide looking at him.
This was the first time she saw Ye Jinghuai at such a close distance.
Looking at him with eyes closed, so close to her.
Looking at his long eyelashes...
She just realized Ye Jinghuai actually had such thick and curly lashes.
So dense and upward curled.
At such a close distance, his skin was also so smooth.
No visible pores at all.
Was this the skin a man should have?!
She suddenly recalled Xia Qi Qi said Ye Jinghuai was a bottom...
If it was really true.
He would probably be the most good-looking bottom in the world.
"Mmm." An Nuan's heart stirred.
Ye Jinghuai originally only pressed his lips on hers.
Just two soft lip petals tightly attached together, no other movements.
At this moment.
Ye Jinghuai directly pried open her clenched teeth.
An Nuan unconsciously clenched her fists.
Ye Jinghuai's mouth clearly still had the smell of alcohol, yet she didn't find it disgusting. On the contrary, she was as if intoxicated by that hint of alcohol. She clearly felt she should resist, yet she didn't resist... Didn't resist as he relentlessly and deeply kissed her, tirelessly.
For a long time.
Really for a long time.
Only then did Ye Jinghuai leave An Nuan's somewhat swollen lips.
When he parted, there was still a trace of ambiguity between their lips, even though it was instantly broken.
But the liquid on Ye Jinghuai's lips was so evident.
An Nuan's face was already blushing intensely.
She really didn't expect.
That she would let Ye Jinghuai kiss her.
Kiss her for so long.
Kiss her deeply.
Even now when their lips parted, she still felt the lingering sensations of the kiss, unable to get rid of it.
Her eyes moved slightly.
Her heartbeat also became very irregular.
Ye Jinghuai's long fingers gently caressed her lips, as if helping her wipe away that trace of ambiguity at the corner of her mouth.
But this gentleness on his face was completely different from the man in her memory.
Whether it was the casual Ye Jinghuai now or the reticent overbearing Ye Jinghuai later, it wasn't like this man before her.
His attractive lips parted lightly as he said, "Don't let other men touch these soft lips again."
Gentle yet extremely domineering.
It gave off an aura of not being able to resist.
An Nuan came to her senses.
It really took her a long time to regain her composure.
This expert in relationships, Ye Jinghuai, really lived up to his reputation.
Just now, how could she have lost herself under his kiss, still unable to pull herself together.
She made herself calm down.
Finally calmed down.
She said, "Ye Jinghuai, we have a marriage of convenience. To put it bluntly, we don't belong to each other."
The gentleness on Ye Jinghuai's face instantly disappeared.
The sudden coldness finally made An Nuan see the shadow of Ye Jinghuai in her memory.
"So Miss An has rejected." Ye Jinghuai said coldly.
"I'm just reminding Master Ye not to misunderstand."
Ye Jinghuai's face darkened.
An Nuan acted as if she didn't see it, or rather, didn't want to take Ye Jinghuai's emotions into account. She spoke bluntly again, "In short. Whether it's before or after marriage, let's not disrupt each other's lifestyles. Master Ye can continue his romantic life surrounded by beauties, I won't mind at all. At the same time, I hope Master Ye will keep his distance from me."
"Miss An means that after marriage, I can still be entangled with thousands of women, but I can't touch a single hair on Miss An's body."
"With Master Ye's enriching life, I believe Master Ye is also unwilling to give up the entire forest for a crooked tree."
"How do you know I'm not willing when you're not me?" Ye Jinghuai asked her.
Clearly questioning her.
"Because I won't let myself belong to any man again." An Nuan didn't answer Ye Jinghuai's question, she just told him straight.
She would never fall in love with any man again.
She had been deceived by men so deeply in her previous life, so she didn't want any emotional involvement with men in this life.
Her deal with Ye Jinghuai was just business.
They could part ways when the deal ended.
"Ye Jinghuai, I will give you a bright future!" This was the only promise she could give him.
As for him.
She didn't need any promises from him.
As long as she didn't fall in love with him, she could be invincible.
And she would never fall in love with any man again!
Ye Jinghuai smiled.
His smiling face was so charming, yet it gave people chills.
He moved away from An Nuan.
When leaving, he even took a step back.
This distance.
Made An Nuan feel for some reason that the nobility and gentlemanliness emitted from Ye Jinghuai's bones.
It was true respect for her, not Gu Yan Sheng's fake gentleman manner.
He said, "One day you'll know, what I've always wanted has never just been a bright future."
An Nuan looked straight at him.
"What I want is..." Ye Jinghuai dragged his words.
Yet he didn't say the words that followed in the end.
She just looked at Ye Jinghuai like this as he turned and left.
His tall and upright figure.
Somehow gave off a feeling of vicissitudes and loneliness!
Was this man also very good at pretending?
Or...
She felt there was really no need to think too much.
In this life, she would never repeat her mistakes!
