Ye Zhiwei had lost consciousness. She lay limply on the sofa, her mind hazy even though she had been bullied like this. She almost acquiesced to Jiang Jianian's actions.

Her face was still flushed from the alcohol, and there were tears welling up in her eyes because Jiang Jianian's kisses were a bit rough. When she opened her eyes to look at Jiang Jianian, she was still dazed and not very clear-headed. She just felt that there was some danger and subconsciously wanted to stretch out her leg and kick the person who was pressing down on her away.

Barefoot, with little sun exposure and naturally pale skin, her legs and feet were very white, so white that you could see the tiny purple veins. Her weak kick was no match for the person next to her; instead, her ankle was restrained. Jiang Jianian stopped kissing Ye Zhiwei's shoulder and started kissing her ankle, then moving upwards along it.

Even a light bite could turn her skin red. Ye Zhiwei couldn't help but moan softly because of her sensitivity. The red marks on her thighs were even more striking because of her red dress. Jiang Jianian knelt in front of Ye Zhiwei and kissed her passionately. Ye Zhiwei was so uncomfortable that she tried to scratch Jiang Jianian with her hand, but accidentally touched the pink champagne that had been temporarily placed next to her.

The wine was spilled, leaving pinkish-red stains on the sofa. Even Ye Zhiwei's hands were wet with wine. Jiang Jianian grabbed Ye Zhiwei's wrist, kissing and licking the champagne off it. He was going crazy, his gaze towards Ye Zhiwei growing increasingly dangerous. He held Ye Zhiwei's hand tightly, kissed it deeply, and then said hoarsely, "Ye Zhiwei, you're driving me insane."

Ye Zhiwei woke up in her own bed, wearing loose pajamas and sitting on the bed in a daze.

It's still early, around 7:30.

Yesterday, Jiang Jianian coaxed me into drinking, and I ended up blacking out. I really did black out; I don't even remember what happened afterward, and my head still hurts a bit now.

Because it was fruit wine, I didn't feel too bad, just a little dizzy.

Jiang Jianian kept pouring her alcohol, and that was her last memory.

Ye Zhiwei breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she probably hadn't done anything out of line.

I don't think so.

Something just doesn't feel right.

Ye Zhiwei went to the bathroom to wash up, but when she looked in the mirror, she realized how bad her condition had been yesterday. No wonder she felt a little pain in her body. Standing in front of the mirror, she could see that there were slight bruises on her neck and collarbone. When she pulled up her pajama pants, the sight was also appalling.

Ye Zhiwei: ? ? ?

Is it a hickey?

There were no marks like this when Jiang Jianian kissed her before, this is terrifying! What did this man do to her yesterday?

Miss Ye: ?

She slid in her slippers and knocked on Jiang Jianian's door.

After knocking for a while, Ye Zhiwei realized no one would answer the door. Furious, she went to open it, only to find that Jiang Jianian was no longer there. Ye Zhiwei figured he was probably in the kitchen. She rushed downstairs and found only a note on the table: "The hangover soup is in the thermos, and breakfast is in the thermos. Remember to eat."

They didn't mention a word about what happened yesterday.

They left so early, she didn't even have time to ask them anything.

Ye Zhiwei took a deep breath and began to observe her surroundings in the hall. She vaguely remembered that she had been carried here by Jiang Jianian after drinking herself into a stupor. Then she noticed that the wool blanket on the sofa had been replaced with a new one, and many things on the table had been cleaned up again. Judging from this, yesterday must have been quite brutal.

Ye Zhiwei began to wonder if Jiang Jianian had only kissed her yesterday and done nothing else.

She felt a little pain in her body, but it was probably because Jiang Jianian's kisses were rather rough, resulting in these faint bruises. There was no color on her body, as described in the novel, as if she had been torn in two.

After sitting cross-legged on the sofa and thinking for a moment, Miss Ye decided to have breakfast first before questioning Jiang Jianian about what had happened.

After taking a shower and washing up, Ye Zhiwei went downstairs again to drink half a bowl of hangover soup before taking out breakfast from the thermostat.

Perhaps because Ye Zhiwei had been drinking, she cooked porridge for breakfast. It was pumpkin porridge with less sugar, making it quite light. There was also milk toast on the side, served with a poached egg.

I initially thought the flavor would be rather bland, but after taking a bite, I realized that this combination was actually quite delicious. The toast probably had milk and butter added during the making process, making it sweet and delicious. When I took a big bite with the fried egg, I was pleasantly surprised to find that there were almonds inside. The almonds were very fragrant and crunchy, and they blended very well with the toast, the milk crumb, and the fried egg.

Ye Zhiwei finished a large bowl of pumpkin porridge and a large portion of milk toast with great satisfaction before she started sending messages to Jiang Jianian.

Ye Zhiwei: Did you go out?

Jiang Jianian was on his way to S City. His car was almost at the research institute when he received Ye Zhiwei's message and replied: "Yes, that's right."

The two words, concise and cold, conveyed no remorse whatsoever for what he had done to her yesterday.

Ye Zhiwei continued sending messages rapidly: Did you do something to me yesterday? I found that my collarbone, thigh, and neck were bitten.

Jiang Jianian corrected Ye Zhiwei: It's not a bite, it's a kiss.

Ye Zhiwei: ? ? ?

Why could he still seriously point out her mistakes? Ye Zhiwei gritted her teeth and continued to send: How could you do such a thing to me while I was drunk? This is despicable behavior.

Jiang Jianian: Isn't your drunken behavior giving me an opportunity to take advantage of you?

Ye Zhiwei: What did you do to me?! [Shameless scoundrel]

Jiang Jianian didn't sleep well yesterday. When he stared at Ye Zhiwei, he already wanted to do something to her. Besides intimate kissing, hugging and caressing, he wanted to possess her more fiercely, wanted to hear her cry, wanted to see her pitiful state with red eyes begging for mercy but unable to do anything but let him bully her.

But in the end, he was controlled by desire. Despite the cold weather, beads of sweat appeared on his body. He felt as if he were burning up, and the sweat trickled down his skin. The young man grasped Ye Zhiwei's hand with one hand and covered her eyes with the other, and then...

Jiang Jianian tightened his grip, rubbed his temples, and after a while sent a message: I didn't do anything.

Ye Zhiwei was shocked by Jiang Jianian's shameless words.

After a while, Jiang Jianian sent another message: I could have gone even further.

Ye Zhiwei knew perfectly well what "even more outrageous" meant. Jiang Jianian had been hinting at it to her several times, his usually cold gaze now softening as he stared at her, constantly telling Ye Zhiwei what he wanted to do.

Ye Zhiwei blushed and didn't know what to reply. In the end, she could only send several angry emojis shyly, looking helpless.

Jiang Jianian stared at his phone for a long while, his thumb lingering on the screen, thinking of Ye Zhiwei's angry and embarrassed expression, and chuckled softly.
