Jiang Xun seemed not to have expected someone to be in his room, and a trace of surprise crossed his face.
“Sorry, I forgot to bring my clothes in.”
His face felt a little warm, and he hurried toward the wardrobe area.
But Li Wu thought, Why bother changing clothes? She was going to take them off anyway, so she called out to him.
“No need to change. There’s no one else here.”
As if afraid he would actually put his clothes on, Li Wu beckoned him over and ordered, “Come over and have a couple of drinks with me.”
Hearing this, Jiang Xun obediently walked over.
Li Wu sat on a high stool, her dress so short that her pale thighs were fully exposed beneath it.
Because she had already been drinking, her cheeks were flushed, and there was a smile in the corners of her eyes and lips, making her look like a charming, seductive, and mischievous little fox.
Jiang Xun’s Adam’s apple bobbed.
He felt as though something was about to leap out of his rapidly pounding chest.
When he approached her, Li Wu raised her hand and grabbed the chain around his neck, pulling it downward with the motion.
Jiang Xun had no choice but to bend down, bringing his face close to hers.
He lowered his eyes to gaze at her charming little face, watching her moist red lips open and close.
Her voice was sweet and coquettish, carrying a hint of drunkenness.
“What were you doing at home all day today?”
His eyes darkened slightly, and his voice came out hoarse. “Reading.”
“Is the book prettier than me?”
She shifted slightly to the side, and the thin strap on her rounded shoulder slipped down with the movement, revealing a glimpse of translucent white skin.
“Hmm?”
Jiang Xun lowered his eyes, calmly hooked the fallen strap back into place, and replied, “The book is prettier.”
“I don’t believe you. I’m obviously prettier.”
She smiled at the man, noticing that the tips of his ears had quietly turned red.
Was he shy?
Li Wu covered her lips slightly, unable to suppress her delight.
So pure.
Men who had never been in love really were fun to tease.
She was rather pleased with herself, too.
This was the result of all the practice she had put in.
Every posture and every movement since she had sat here had been carefully designed by her, all so she could lure him into taking the bait.
Li Wu pointed at the collar and magnanimously said, “I’ll take it off for you.”
“Mm.”
Jiang Xun cooperatively lowered his head, moving even closer to her.
He was close enough to catch the faint scent of her shower gel.
It was the same one he used.
“Click.”
The sound of the clasp unlocking rang out.
A small, warm hand replaced the collar around his neck, gently and soothingly massaging the skin that had been rubbed red by it.
“It’s already rubbed red. Does it hurt?”
“No.”
“I should have bought a larger size.”
Her voice was soft and gentle, with a hint of regret. “I’ll blow on it for you. Then it won’t hurt anymore.”
Before Jiang Xun could react, Li Wu had already leaned closer, her red lips less than a finger’s breadth from the skin of his neck.
She gently blew on it.
Her warm, delicate breath fell against his skin, like scorching flames that instantly set his entire face ablaze.
Jiang Xun’s mouth went dry.
“……”
She was clearly only doing something so simple, yet he was already…
He swallowed, his throat tight, and even his breathing began to quicken.
His mind: Run.
His body: Why? I obviously like this.
Yet at that very moment, something unexpected happened.
The bath towel that had been tied securely suddenly slipped down.
Jiang Xun’s mind went blank with a bang.
He wanted to stop it from happening, but Li Wu’s eyes were faster than his hands, and she had already caught a glimpse from the corner of her eye.
The next moment, Li Wu’s scream rang through the room.
“Ahhh, you…”
This time, it was her turn to feel shy.
She saw it. She really saw it.
Although she had already seen his data over evil little butter, seeing the real thing with her own eyes felt completely different.
It was just… way too stimulating.
Li Wu covered her eyes with both hands, her entire face bright red.
5XL.
She was going to die.
“Sorry.”
Jiang Xun hurriedly crouched down, picked up the bath towel, and tied it back around himself.
“I’m going to put some clothes on.”
With that, he turned around without looking back and headed for the dressing room, as though he had made up his mind about something.
Li Wu was so shocked that she felt dizzy.
Was this the male lead’s capital?!
How was anyone supposed to handle that?
Li Wu was a little speechless. With trembling hands, she picked up the wineglass on the table and took a sip.
To gather courage.
Yes, drinking would give her courage.
She took another big sip.
Huh? Why did it taste strange?
Li Wu looked at the glass in her hand, then at the other glass on the table.
She almost fainted.
Fuck, she had picked up the wrong glass.
She had drunk the one she had drugged for Jiang Xun.
Oh no.
Before she could even rejoice that she had only taken two sips instead of finishing the entire glass, the drug had already taken effect.
So dizzy, so hot.
She shook her head, then staggered forward two steps. Her hand loosened, the wineglass slipped from her fingers, and shattered on the floor.
The loud crash made Jiang Xun, who had only gotten halfway dressed, hurry back.
“Li Wu.”
“Here!”
A loud voice obediently answered him.
Jiang Xun rushed out.
He saw Li Wu standing barefoot beside the bar counter, a silly smile hanging on her face as she raised both hands in surrender and grinned foolishly at him.
He froze for a moment, then noticed the broken red wine bottle and shards at her feet, and immediately shouted sternly, “Don’t move.”
Before he could finish speaking, he had already rushed to her side.
With red wine and broken glass scattered all over the floor, Jiang Xun had no way to clean it up first, so he simply wrapped an arm around her waist, lifted her up, and carried her away from the mess.
Li Wu obediently curled up in his arms, stretching out her arms to enthusiastically wrap them around his neck.
“You’re so fierce.”
Jiang Xun said in a deep voice, “If you move around, you’ll get hurt.”
“Hmph, I’d never let myself get hurt.”
“Mm, you’re amazing.”
Her murmuring voice carried a hint of grievance and wounded pride. “No one has ever dared to speak so loudly in front of me. Man, you’ve successfully caught my attention.”
She was so talkative when drunk.
The corners of Jiang Xun’s lips lifted as he carried her into the master bedroom and gave a perfunctory hum.
“Why are you ignoring me?”
She continued grumbling unhappily, “Jiang Xun, if you dare ignore me, you’re dead.”
“Then are you going to kill me?”
“Of course not. You’re my…”
The sudden effects of the drug left Li Wu speechless.
She shook her head, almost dizzy from the heat, feeling as though she were about to melt. Her voice became soft and delicate, tinged with grievance.
“It’s so hot.”
Jiang Xun gently placed her on the bed, lowered his eyes to look at her, and pressed, “I’m your what?”
But Li Wu reached for her own dress, trying to pull it off.
“I’m going to die from the heat.”
Jiang Xun caught the smell of alcohol on her and asked gently, “Did you drink?”
Li Wu did not answer. She simply kept tugging at her clothes, trying to pull off her little dress.
Her condition was somewhat abnormal, so Jiang Xun grabbed her wrist, trying to stop her.
Unexpectedly, when she could not get her own dress off, she immediately reached for Jiang Xun’s pants instead.
Jiang Xun: “……”
It seemed she was not simply drunk.
He lowered his thick lashes and watched her impatient movements, amusement spreading through his eyes.
He understood immediately.
Could this idiot have tried to drug him, only to drug herself instead?
It certainly seemed like something she would do.
“Why can’t I undo it?”
“Don’t rush.”
Jiang Xun lifted her completely off the bed and settled her onto his lap, holding her wrist with one hand.
“Li Wu?”
Li Wu naturally wrapped her arms around him.
His skin was cool, and it felt so comfortable against hers.
She was completely satisfied.
Seeing her childish behavior, Jiang Xun could not help laughing.
“Li Wu, can you see clearly who I am?”
Li Wu lifted her head, the flush on her porcelain-white face spreading to her ears and neck as she blinked.
“You’re Jiang Xun.”
Jiang Xun raised a hand and played with a strand of her hair with his slender fingers, as though teasing a kitten, praising her in a casual tone.
“Mm, so smart.”
“I’m not drunk, Jiang Xun.”
“Got it. You’re not drunk.”
Their clothes were disheveled, and she sat on his lap with her arms wrapped around his neck. Her delicate red lips parted as she suddenly questioned him.
“Why won’t you kiss me?”
Jiang Xun froze.
The atmosphere had already reached this point, so why was he still not kissing her?
Her voice carried a hint of grievance as she pretended she was about to cry.
“Even Liang Siyu was going to kiss me, so why won’t you…”
Before she could finish, the man’s thin lips pressed against hers.
