Seeing that Lu Linglong did not resist, Zhuang Wen became even more unscrupulous.

Lu Linglong hurriedly grabbed Zhuang Wen's hands, which were trying to swim upstream, her beautiful eyes brimming with tears. She whispered in a coquettish voice, "You... let go of me!"

"Why should I listen to you if you say so?"

Zhuang Wen chuckled, resting his chin on Lu Linglong's fragrant shoulder, his breath reeking of alcohol, which caused goosebumps to rise on her neck.

Under the influence of alcohol, Zhuang Wen became much bolder, especially after thinking about the voluptuous woman in his arms who had spent the night with him in a hotel. He became even more unrestrained, his hands moving incessantly and wantonly.

Lu Linglong was completely powerless and collapsed into Zhuang Wen's arms like a lump of mud, but she still tried to push Zhuang Wen's hands away weakly, but to no avail.

Zhuang Wen was initially provoked by Lu Linglong's words, which led him to act so recklessly.

But now, the resentment in his heart has been consumed by evil fire.

On the dimly lit street, the red sports car was parked on the side of the road, with no one around, which emboldened Zhuang Wen to act recklessly.

Zhuang Wen followed the fragrance and moved closer to Lu Linglong's lips.

But before he even arrived, he heard soft sobbing.

He was stunned.

His subordinates also stopped what they were doing.

His heart was pounding violently.

What is he doing?!

Looking at Lu Linglong, who was sobbing with her head down in his arms, he felt a pang of regret.

He stared blankly ahead, opened his mouth, but couldn't utter the words "I'm sorry".

"Waaaaah..."

Sensing that Zhuang Wen had stopped moving, Lu Linglong felt even more aggrieved for some reason, and her sobs became more pronounced.

Snap!

Zhuang Wen raised his hand and slapped himself across the face. The sound was extremely loud, startling Lu Linglong.

She hurriedly looked up and saw that Zhuang Wen had slapped her, and a faint pang of heartache suddenly rose in her heart.

Seeing Lu Linglong's pitiful, tear-streaked appearance, Zhuang Wen felt an overwhelming sense of regret, making him even more disgusted with his beastly behavior just now.

He couldn't help but raise his hand and gently wipe away the tear stains from the corner of Lu Linglong's eyes.

The same gentleness he showed when he wiped away Tang Xin's tears.

"Waaaaah..."

Lu Linglong lowered her head and cried, feeling increasingly aggrieved for some reason.

I don't know how much time has passed.

The dim streetlights in the distance blinked a few times before going out.

Finally, Lu Linglong stopped crying.

She had fallen asleep nestled gently in Zhuang Wen's arms.

Zhuang Wen held Lu Linglong in his arms, remaining in that position for a long time without moving, but he was completely unaware of it. His gaze was lowered as he quietly watched Lu Linglong's sleeping appearance, as if she were a sleeping beauty.

As night fell, the bright moon and stars gradually disappeared.

Zhuang Wen estimated that two or three hours had passed.

His arms and body were sore and uncomfortable, due to his prolonged inactivity.

He was just about to move his body when even the slightest movement accidentally woke up Lu Linglong, who hadn't slept soundly.

"I……"

Lu Linglong's voice was rather hoarse when she opened her mouth.

This is because the voice changes after crying for a long time.

"Ah, I..."

At the same time, she found herself falling into Zhuang Wen's arms, and her face instantly turned red.

Zhuang Wen, however, seemed to have not moved at all from the time he went to sleep until he woke up.

"You've been holding this position the whole time?"

Lu Linglong couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"Yeah, it's nothing."

Zhuang Wen responded with a smile.

"I'm sorry, I accidentally fell asleep."

Lu Linglong lowered her head and said, her eyes watery, like a pebble thrown into a calm lake.

At this moment, she was not the charming and alluring Lu Linglong, but rather Lu Linglong like a little woman.

"It's my fault, I shouldn't have..."

Zhuang Wen sighed, and was about to explain when Lu Linglong, her pretty face flushed, interrupted him, "Alright, it's getting late, I'll take you home."

Zhuang Wen was taken aback, but could only nod and say, "Okay."

He was about to open the car door to let Lu Linglong return to the driver's seat from outside, but Lu Linglong climbed over from his arms to the driver's seat instead.

Although the sports car interior wasn't very spacious, Lu Linglong managed to climb into the driver's seat with great difficulty.

Just like when Zhuang Wen moved her from the driver's seat to the passenger seat earlier.

But this also gave Zhuang Wen, who was behind him, a real treat for the eyes.

It's not really his fault.

He really didn't want to look, but Lu Linglong's charming and voluptuous figure was truly captivating.

A rounded bottom, snow-white thighs, a flat stomach, a slender waist...

Everything about it caught Zhuang Wen's eye.

Lu Linglong also noticed Zhuang Wen's aggressive gaze, and two blushes rose on her pretty face, making her look stunningly beautiful.

She sped back to the driver's seat.

Then he hurriedly started the sports car and sped forward.

Throughout this process, she remained silent, and Zhuang Wen also remained silent.

A dozen minutes later.

Her car was parked downstairs at Zhuang Wen's building.

"They're gone."

Zhuang Wen greeted them and then got out of the car.

At this moment, Lu Linglong hurriedly said, "Zhuang Wen!"

"What's wrong?"

Zhuang Wen stopped getting out of the car and turned to look at Lu Linglong.

"I……"

Seeing Zhuang Wen's dark eyes, Lu Linglong couldn't bring herself to say what she wanted to say.

"Speak your mind."

Zhuang Wen smiled slightly, his attitude much better than before.

Perhaps the effects of the alcohol had worn off, or perhaps Lu Linglong had fallen asleep in her arms.

He no longer felt the same way about the beautiful woman before him; instead, he felt a pang of pity, especially when he thought about how she had cried so hard because of his actions. He felt even more guilty.

"I……"

Lu Linglong spoke again, but still couldn't finish her sentence.

Seeing Lu Linglong's head bowed low, her expression unreadable, Zhuang Wen smiled, then reached out and touched her hair, saying, "You haven't made up your mind yet? Tell me when you have."

Her voice was unusually gentle.

Lu Linglong's delicate body trembled, then she slowly raised her head and looked at Zhuang Wen's warm smile. She was captivated and her gaze became fixed on him.

Why are you looking at me like that? It's making me feel embarrassed.

Zhuang Wen smiled and touched Lu Linglong's delicate, upturned nose with his finger.

This gesture is very intimate.

Lu Linglong's cheeks instantly turned as red as the sunset, and she lowered her head again, her eyes rippling like waves, not daring to look at Zhuang Wen.

Zhuang Wen then realized that his behavior was indeed somewhat inappropriate.

"I'm leaving now. Drive slowly on your way back and be careful."

He quickly gave an awkward smile, then pushed open the car door and got out.

"Uh-huh."

Lu Linglong's voice was as faint and weak as a fly's buzz, revealing an undisguised shyness.

Seeing this, Zhuang Wen's smile grew even brighter.

"Zhuang Wen".

As soon as she started the car, Lu Linglong opened the window and called out to Zhuang Wen.

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

Zhuang Wen replied patiently.

"I was just about to say..."

Lu Linglong mustered her courage. For the first time, speaking felt incredibly difficult, but she had to speak, though she didn't know why:

"I am not a casual woman."
