Because she was angry, Ji Fuying's slap was quite forceful.

Soon, a trickle of blood appeared on Ji Yan's lips, and his face quickly became red and swollen.

Her hand hovered in mid-air, a fleeting look of regret crossing her eyes.

But upon further reflection, she felt he deserved it, so she simply turned her head away and stopped looking at him.

Ji Yan didn't miss the hint of heartache in her eyes; she still couldn't bear to part with him, could she?

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his fingers, then turned back to her and held her tightly in his arms.

“Yingying, maybe it’s a little late, but I want to tell you that I have truly fallen in love with you. When I see you being held in another man’s arms, I’m so jealous that I want to kill someone.”

I can't control my emotions. You're becoming more and more attractive to me. You have no idea how many times I've secretly taken cold showers, all because of you.

I'll pave the way for the future, please forgive me and accept me, okay? From now on, I'll listen to whatever you want to do, and I'll only love you, okay?

Despite being a cold and aloof person, he could utter such emotional words, and Ji Fuying knew that every word he said was true.

Her heart also began to beat abnormally.

But... can she really accept it?

Can this relationship be blessed?

"Let me go first."

Her head was spinning, and she couldn't think straight at all.

"Will you accept me?" His deep black eyes were filled with anticipation.

If it weren't for Yingying, he probably would never have had another woman in his life, he thought.

"I take relationships very seriously. If you betray me one day, I might kill you?"

She's petty and can't tolerate even the slightest imperfection. If one day he defends someone else the way he defended Song Yuxi before, she probably won't show any mercy, right?

"Okay, if I ever betray you, then my life will be in your hands, and I will never fight back."

His brows were filled with boundless joy, and his bright eyes sparkled with ecstatic light.

Even Ji Fuying was infected by his joy.

He's the first person I've ever liked. I'll give it a try; I'll only know if it's worth it after I've tried.

"Yingying, you said you had no romantic feelings for me, is that true?"

His eyes, which had been filled with joy, instantly fell silent.

He remembered that it was in this very room that she told him she only felt brotherly and sisterly affection for him.

Ji Fuying also remembered this matter, and the solemn vows she had made back then. Was she going to go back on her word now?

I couldn't bring myself to say it, so... I decided to just do it, since the effect would be the same anyway.

She tentatively brought her lips to his and gently kissed him, a kiss that was both clumsy and haphazard.

Ji Yan narrowed his eyes, letting her do whatever she wanted to him.

Five minutes passed.

Before she could even get to the point, Ji Yan flipped her over and pinned her beneath him, gently coaxing her, "Sweetie, I'm about to burst. I'll let you have some fun next time."

The next second, he sealed her lips with his and began his assault, his warm palm resting on the back of her head.

She slowly closed her eyes, feeling her waist trapped in his strong arms.

She uttered a soft, emotional whisper, "Ji Yan."

From time to time, the room echoed with the man's hurried, low growls and the woman's soft, pleading voices.

The Night Banquet of the Jade Emperor.

Inside the luxurious private room, a group of men and women were embracing each other wildly and unrestrainedly, while others who couldn't wait had already gone to the restroom.

When Ji Yingying and Jiang Xuan pushed open the door, their expressions changed slightly. They didn't know they should have been more discreet, even though they knew the two women were coming.

"Brother, I'm here."

Ji Yingying called out to the man in the middle a few times, but the man was only focused on teasing the woman in his arms and didn't hear her cries at all.

"Brother." Her strong voice finally made Ji Han turn around and look at her.

"Yingying, you're here! And who is this?"

He spotted Jiang Xuan behind Ji Yingying at a glance; she looked like a wealthy young lady.

The women he's been with are mostly nightclub girls; he's never tried dating a proper rich girl. Although she might be a bit dull, she has her own unique charm.

Ji Yingying quickly blocked his lecherous gaze. She had just coaxed him into submission and couldn't let her brother ruin things.

After Li Muning was taken away, Jiang Xuan began to question her identity. Seeing that she could no longer hide it, she had no choice but to tell the truth.

He claimed he had a way to deal with Ji Fuying, which made her follow him here with some skepticism.

"Brother, you have to stand up for me! Jiang Xuan and I have been bullied so much at the company."

Ji Yingying put on a pitiful look, as if she had really suffered a great injustice.

Ji Han glanced over lightly, "It's strange that someone in the company would bully you."

As far as he knew, this younger sister had been doing very well since joining the company and considered herself the daughter of the Ji family. Under such circumstances, how could anyone dare to bully her?

"Brother, I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, ask Jiang Xuan." Ji Yingying pretended to wipe away two non-existent tears.

Seeing that the problem had been shifted onto her, Jiang Xuan could only step out from behind her.

“Yingying is right. That woman, relying on her unparalleled beauty, acts like a tyrant in the company and has bullied us more than once or twice.”

"A face that no one can match?"

"Yes, she's even prettier than my cousin Jiang Weidai."

She wasn't unaware of the desire in Ji Han's eyes, but she couldn't afford to offend the Ji family.

The only way to distract him is to promote Ji Fuying's beauty and then make it clear that I am a member of the Jiang family, so that he will back down.

"You're from the Jiang family, Jiang Weidai's cousin?"

"yes."

The lust in Ji Han's eyes had indeed faded considerably. He was merely a member of a branch of the Ji family, and he couldn't afford to sleep with the women of the Jiang family for the time being.

However, he was quite interested in that woman who was even more beautiful than Jiang Weidai, but he didn't know if it was true.

Seeing the suspicion in his eyes, Jiang Xuan took out her phone and pulled out a photo of Ji Fuying, which she had secretly taken.

Even she herself couldn't help but exclaim in amazement when she saw the photo; she refused to believe that Ji Han would remain unmoved.

Ji Han snatched the phone from her hand and said with a smile, "She's really beautiful. She's definitely the most beautiful woman I've ever seen in my life. I'm going to have her."

The more he drank, the less he appreciated the wine; all he could think about was the woman in the photograph.

He couldn't wait to find her and pin her down.

"That woman must have some martial arts skills. Even our company's security guards can't beat her. Young Master Ji, you'd better be careful."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Ji Han gently squeezed her palm. Was she interested in him because she cared so much?

Jiang Xuan forced a smile and said, "That's good."

But she was filled with disdain. If she hadn't been worried that he wouldn't be able to win over Ji Fuying, why would she have given him so many reminders?
