The stunningly handsome face that suddenly loomed close snatched away Yan Luoxi’s breath, and she stared at him, almost dazed.
A cold glint shot out from the man’s narrow, dark eyes, “Speak up!”
Yan Luoxi turned her head away, forcefully suppressing the unease that arose from fear.
Even though she was notoriously bold, she knew the man before her had a rather bad temper and didn’t dare to offend him lightly.
She played dumb, “I didn’t say anything.”
Li Yeqi’s thin lips curled up as he leaned in, his face close to hers, “Sure you won’t say it?”
Yan Luoxi froze, the two were so close that the man’s breath sprayed all over her, “You…”
Li Yeqi narrowed his eyes dangerously.
Ever since he had met her that day, she had been defying him, and he was not pleased, especially after she had just insinuated that he sold his body.
How blind must she be to not see his noble status?
With anger boiling in his heart, his movements did not stop.
Yan Luoxi tensed up completely, her cheeks flushing hotly as her heartbeat suddenly lost control and began thumping wildly.
Yan Luoxi looked at the handsome man close at hand, her small hand tightly gripping his wrist, “What are you doing!”
Li Yeqi’s lips slightly lifted, noting her flushed face, his voice low and seductive, “Saying I sold my body, huh?”
“Your sister!” Yan Luoxi’s face turned red with anger, and she raised her hand to slap him, her hand was caught midair by the man and pressed above her head.
Yan Luoxi glared at him, her nerves pushed to the limit, rebounding even more fiercely.
She suddenly burst out of her earlier shyness and began to struggle with all her might.
Li Yeqi nearly failed to restrain her several times, almost letting her break free.
But the less she cooperated, the more he wanted to conquer her.
Li Yeqi’s gaze darkened even more, like the surging sea ready to swallow everything.
He pressed down on the seat control, and in a second the passenger seat went down.
Yan Luoxi hadn’t reacted before she was flung down onto the seat by a strong force. Visit novelping.com for the full chapter.
The man’s breathing was a bit heavy, “Not convinced?”
Yan Luoxi, lying in the seat, retorted with mockery, “I know you’re usually oppressed by old women and don’t dare to resist.
How helpless must you be to only seek a sense of presence with a weak woman like me.
Fine, I recognize my bad luck for getting into your damn car.”
Li Yeqi’s eyes twitched—he hadn’t misunderstood earlier; she was indeed scolding him for selling his body.
Old women?
Good, very good!
He was curious to know where she had got such a false piece of information.
Li Yeqi sat back in the driver’s seat, leisurely lit a cigarette, held it between his lips, took a puff, and slowly exhaled the smoke, the fierceness in his eyes and brows gradually dissipating.
“Come on, explain it to me, when have I ever sold my body?”
Yan Luoxi climbed up from the seat, her hair messy and spread over her shoulders, she quickly straightened her clothes and met his dark, obscure gaze.
Biting her lower lip, she retorted, “I saw with my own eyes you getting cozy with an old woman.
Are you going to deny it?”
Li Yeqi nearly choked on the smoke.
He thought hard, and the only “old woman” he had been in contact with since his return to the Imperial Capital was his respected mother.
“Were you around Yong’an Building yesterday?”
“Yes!” Yan Luoxi thought he was admitting it, and that disdainful look in her eyes grew more pronounced.
Li Yeqi looked at her with an almost amused gaze, but did not explain.
Instead, he deliberately blew a puff of smoke on her cheek.
Seeing her cough and choke, his voice held a hint of amusement, “So angry.
Jealous?”
Yan Luoxi’s eyes reddened from coughing; she stopped coughing and glared at him, her tone mocking, “Jealous?
With you?”
Li Yeqi suppressed the displeasure in his heart, wound down the car window, ready to flick the ash off his cigarette.
Upon seeing him, the subordinate’s expression immediately turned respectful, and without looking sideways, he said, “Seventh Master, you can’t park here.”
Li Yeqi glanced at him indifferently, his voice slightly deep, “Alright, I got it.”
“Seventh Master, take care!” The subordinate stood straight, watching Li Yeqi drive away before hurriedly taking out his mobile phone and excitedly posting a message on his social media feed.
“Ran into Seventh Master on XX Road; the little sister in the car is really beautiful, though she looks a bit familiar.”
Once the message was sent, the subordinate’s feed exploded with comments.
“Want pics for proof.”
“No way, has our Seventh Master finally wised up?”
“I thought Seventh Master would end up alone forever, and now he has a girlfriend.
When will it be my turn to be single no more?”
“Who is the little sister from a reputable family that managed to snag Master Li?
Please accept my admiration.”
The feed was abuzz with excitement, and the news spread quickly throughout the Imperial Capital; everyone was curious about the woman who had made Seventh Master come to his senses, especially since no other woman but La Zhuangzhuang had ever appeared by Seventh Master’s side.
La Zhuangzhuang had just finished a shoot.
Her assistant handed her the phone cautiously, “Sister Zhuangzhuang, Seventh Master seems to have a girlfriend now.”
La Zhuangzhuang, dressed in an elegant, retro long dress, exuded an aura of grace and nobility.
Upon hearing this, her face changed drastically.
She snatched the phone away eagerly, browsing through social media.
Seeing the post, her pupils contracted slightly.
Li Yeqi, born into a renowned family and educated at high levels, simply would not do such a thing.
Moreover, this particular road was bustling with people and heavy traffic.
“This isn’t true, it must be someone spreading rumors.” La Zhuangzhuang was clearly in disbelief.
She handed the phone back to the assistant, “Contact this person and tell him to delete the social media post, or else I will sue him for defamation!”
