Murong Xiao embraced her from behind, his hand still on her chest, his legs draped over hers, making it impossible for her to even turn over...
As dawn broke and reason returned, she blushed deeply.
Last night was truly... utterly absurd.
No, no, she wasn't ready to face him in this situation. She had to think of something... Gently removing his hand, she pulled her leg free...
As soon as he moved, the person behind him pressed against him again, and the burning heat in his waist began to rise again.
"Ah Jin, don't move." His low, husky voice came, and the hand around her waist tightened its hold on her. "Sleep with me a little longer."
He hadn't held her in a long time, and this feeling... he shamefully missed her.
Xiang Jin lay down, her face flushed, and squeezed the hand that was holding her waist: "I...I want to take a shower."
She was covered in sweat last night and felt sticky and uncomfortable, so taking a shower was a good excuse to avoid physical contact with him... to give her some space to be alone for a while.
"Okay, together."
Before she could react, he got out of bed first, scooped her up in his arms, and lifted her into his embrace. The sudden feeling of weightlessness made her gasp, and then the contact of their skin made her blush and her heart race.
She pretended to be calm and rested her head on his shoulder until he put her in the bathtub, at which point she realized that her face was flushed red in the mirror.
Then... his body was covered in all sorts of messy marks from last night.
It's a truly breathtaking scene.
The warm water slowly submerged her body. She moved down a little, pretending not to see him step into the bathtub, but her body honestly shifted to the side.
Murong Xiao leaned down and left a gentle kiss on the corner of her lips.
Xiang Jin stared at him blankly.
His eyes reflected her image, with a barely perceptible...tenderness: "Does it hurt?" His warm hands caressed the red marks on her waist, and she trembled inexplicably. "No...it doesn't hurt."
Although it was quite intense, she really didn't feel any pain; on the contrary, she felt very comfortable. Even though he was drunk, he still took her feelings into consideration.
"You've only just recovered. I was being willful last night." She had just lost her child, and although she had been recuperating for a while, her body was still weakened and needed time to recover.
Is he apologizing to her?
Is this still the Murong Xiao she knows?
They'd been in a cold war for a long time, and just yesterday he'd been so sarcastic towards her. If it weren't for last night's incident, they might have continued their cold war indefinitely until one of them couldn't take it anymore and filed for divorce.
Xiang Jin thought for a moment and replied, "It's okay, I was the one who took the initiative last night."
Murong Xiao curled his lips into a smile: "How come I remember last night I was the one who pinned someone against the wall first, and then..." His fingertip touched her bright red lips, which were as vibrant and lustrous as ever.
Xiang Jin: "..."
She hastily wiped her face to ward off the heat, then pretended to be calm and began to wash herself.
She wanted to slip away after washing, but his strong hands grabbed her waist and pulled her back into the bathtub. Then he held the back of her head with one hand and started kissing her.
Compared to the raging storm of last night, this kiss was far too gentle. It was precisely this gentleness that was frightening, making it easy to fall deeply into it and find it hard to extricate oneself.
The kiss lasted too long, and Xiang Jin was short of breath. She couldn't help but let out two soft moans. The hand holding her waist immediately tightened, pulling her into her arms.
"No... my back hurts." She pushed him away, her face flushed.
"It's okay, I'll be gentle."
Gentle my foot.
The bathtub had a built-in heating function, and the water went from cool to warm and then back to cool again. She felt as if she were in the water and on a cloud, with layers of tenderness and affection surging in her heart and body. When the passion reached its peak, his movements were anything but gentle. She could only rely on her weak strength to grab his shoulders and hug his neck to keep herself from falling in.
After a bout of passion, she finally collapsed.
He gave her a bath, then carried her back to bed for a nap.
She curled up in his arms like a kitten, her breath coming in soft gasps. He circled her head, sighed softly, and rested his chin on her head: "Ah Jin, have another child for me."
This time, I don't want him.
After all, he couldn't help but love her.
After realizing he was the one who lost first, he felt resentful, angry, and confused. He, Murong Xiao, could have any woman he wanted, but this woman was completely unmoved by his soft or hard tactics. Even when she had other women appear wearing fake "Deep Sea" costumes, she remained calm and composed.
He was angry with her, annoyed by her, and hated her, but he couldn't leave her. As long as she used a little trick to take the initiative, he would put aside all his pride and dignity to love her.
He sighed softly; in the end, it was he who was trapped.
But so what? He was glad it was her.
Upon hearing his voice, Xiang Jin in her dream seemed to remember something, and tears streamed down her face. As she cried, she suddenly screamed and struggled in terror: "Don't hurt my child! No, no!"
Xiang Jin opened her eyes.
Seeing Murong Xiao beside her, she suddenly grabbed his hand and cried out, "Murong Xiao, save me! Please save me! Please save our baby! Take me away! Take me away!"
Murong Xiao held her in his arms and comforted her gently. After a long time, the person beside him gradually calmed down.
The ceiling, the familiar scent at the tip of her nose—she was dreaming.
It wasn't a dream; her child was gone just like that. She clearly remembered the feeling of him disappearing from her body, that pain—she didn't want to experience it a second time.
"Ah Jin, what did you just say? What's going on? Who's trying to take our child away?"
"No one, just a nightmare." Xiang Jin's face was still a little pale.
"Really? Is there anything you want to tell me?"
Xiang Jin shook his head.
Seeing her unusual expression, Murong Xiao stopped asking, but neither of them had any desire to sleep. After getting up and dressing, Xiang Jin realized that the bed from last night was a red heart shape, the room was decorated with roses, and the curtains exuded an ambiguous atmosphere... This love hotel really knows how to have fun.
Xiang Jin couldn't help but blush and feel her heart pound. Fortunately, the hotel had just delivered lunch to the door, and Murong Xiao had gone to pick it up. Otherwise, it would have been really embarrassing if he had seen her like that.
"Come and eat."
Xiang Jin quickly patted his face to clear his head. The presidential suite had a great view, with the azure sea outside. The two enjoyed the scenery while eating, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.
Just then, a news article popped up on my phone.
#Fang Xinman faces a huge compensation of 300 million yuan#.
She paused for a moment, then clicked on it and found that the news topic was already at the top of the trending searches, and the discussion was already very high.
The news report states that since Fang Xinman was terminated by Fengrong, her original endorsements and brands have suffered significant setbacks. Because her personal image has been damaged, other brands have also experienced negative impacts. As a result, those brands have jointly sued Fang Xinman, demanding that she compensate them for brand losses totaling approximately 300 million yuan.
