Chapter 119 The Law of Forbidden Zones is More Addictive Than Drugs
-
After hanging up the phone, she took off her pajamas and found a cool, long dress with a backless design and a tie-up detail. The dress had very little fabric, revealing her slender shoulders and fair back, creating a visually stimulating and eye-catching effect.
Then she took out the odds and ends from her bag and specially replaced them with the ones Chen Jiabai had given her.
At the time, Shen Yueze wanted to throw away all her old luggage, but she didn't agree. However, he had a good memory and could distinguish which items Chen Jiabai had given him. When buying new items, he would avoid similar styles.
She took a taxi to a private club, where a waiter led her inside. The air was thick with the scents of extravagance, perfume, alcohol, and nicotine.
Half of them were unfamiliar faces. I'd heard him mention them casually; they were all second-generation members of this circle. The atmosphere was chaotic and ambiguous. The girls were all dressed exceptionally beautifully, wearing revealing dresses and exquisite makeup.
There was a girl named Jing Yao next to Shen Kuo. She had seen her before; she had acted in some movies and was very beautiful.
Shen Yueze was listening to people talk, looking like a lazy young master. He didn't put his arm around the girl. When he met her gaze, he slowly began to look at the clothes she was wearing today, staring at her exposed skin, his gaze sweeping over her little by little, with a hint of melancholy and a dangerous air about him.
It conveys a sense of weariness after desires have been satisfied.
Someone cheered, "Oh my, they're really here."
Chen Jiabai stood up, a look of amazement flashing in his eyes. It had been a while since they last met, and he felt a sense of novelty. "Ningning, why didn't you call me? I'll come down to pick you up."
"Didn't I send the address? Why do you keep losing?"
"Oops, I drank a bit too much."
Chen Jiabai asked her to sit next to him.
Someone next to me asked, "Still a student? Wow, she's got a great figure. I've never seen her like this before."
"I'm too busy, plus I don't go out much."
Wen Yining isn't the type of girl who likes to mingle in social circles. Knowing too many people isn't a good thing. Her goal is to find a stable second-generation rich kid to marry. He doesn't like girls with a messy past. If everyone says they know her, her boyfriend will be prejudiced.
After playing a few games, with wins and losses, while Chen Jiabai went to the restroom, her phone started vibrating, receiving several messages from the same person.
Are you craving sex again?
Knowing full well what Chen Jiabai's feelings are for you, you still insist on coming to find him.
How much time has passed? One Flame Seal isn't enough for you?
Only Shen Yueze would post such a blatant and vulgar message.
She didn't even need to look at the contact name to know who it was; her heart raced uncontrollably, and she felt hot all over, though she didn't know if it was because she had been drinking.
She didn't argue, but deliberately replied, "So what if they just want to sleep with me? What's the difference between them and you? Aren't you the same? I'm single now, why can't I come?"
[But you're really shameless, acting like nothing ever happened with your good buddy.]
I looked up and met his playful yet meaningful gaze, a cigarette between his fingers.
The girl next to Wen Yining struck up a conversation with her, "Hey, how long have you been dating Chen Jiabai?"
"It's been three months, but we've known each other for a long time."
"They must be hard to win over."
"It's alright, it depends on the person and what type they like. If you find the right fit, it's not difficult."
The girl's mind was on Shen Yueze all night. "What about him? The most handsome one, you know him too, right? What do you think?"
She gave an objective assessment: "You can tell at a glance that they really know how to have fun."
"I think so too. He's kind of dangerously handsome. I feel like he'd do anything in private. If he raised an eyebrow, I'd believe him if he said the Earth is a square."
"..."
The girl then said, "No, her skill level is too high; I can't handle it."
“If I weren’t Chen Jiabai’s ex, I wouldn’t go to any drinking parties where he was present. It’s not safe, and I’ve heard he has some unusual fetishes.”
"true and false?"
"They've made people end up in the hospital."
Wen Yining didn't care at all about smearing his image, saying whatever was outrageous, "He's sexually abusive and likes to choke people. That girl had to be taken to the emergency room late at night. We don't dare to mess with him normally, you get it?"
The girl was a little intimidated. She looked at him a few more times, sighed, and said, "He's very handsome, but I didn't expect him to be such a womanizer in private."
But then, changing the subject, she added, "But I feel like he's really good in bed."
Seeing that she couldn't persuade him, Wen Yining simply shut up and silently drank her beverage, her mind unconsciously drawn to his every move once again.

"They're talking badly about me again."
After the girl changed seats, the room became empty, and Chen Jiabai hadn't returned from the restroom yet.
She feigned composure and said, "Isn't that the truth?"
"When did I ever cause someone to end up in the hospital?"
"I've never really messed you up before. Every time you've been like you've taken some kind of supplement, you're always full of energy."
"But it's true that you choked me, right? Too many people have been deceived by your appearance. Can't I stop so many girls from being fooled?"
"Only you have the right to say what I'm like in bed, but don't spread rumors next time. If you really want to say something, say the truth."
“…”
"That's true. Someone like you could easily kill someone and your family could handle it. Your cousin always tells me to be careful because he's worried you might go too far."
She avoids parties with many strangers, otherwise she might be drugged without realizing it, as Cheng Yuzhou has warned her about this multiple times.
The last time we went to the villa deep in the mountains, it scared him half to death. Although he was my cousin, I couldn't interfere or restrain him.
Those who are simply rich kids are a little better off; they're not so lawless.
It mainly refers to those with a "red" background, who can even disregard all social rules and laws.
When Chen Jiabai came out, he saw the two chatting and laughing. He wasn't surprised. Whether the relationship could be salvaged was not important. Saving face was more important. So he deliberately sat between the two and put his arm around Wen Yining's shoulder.
"Ningning, come back with me tonight. If you break up with Shen Yueze cleanly, I'll pretend nothing happened. We'll get married after graduation, how about that?"
Wen Yining smelled the strong odor of alcohol, frowned, and said only, "You've had too much to drink. I thought you didn't want to get back together."
She didn't feel that he liked her that much, not even as much as Shen Yueze's feelings for her, at least Shen Yueze couldn't live without her.
Chen Jiabai's mind wasn't quite clear at the moment, but she was still conscious. "You don't really think he can marry you, do you? Look at him, always acting like a playboy. Do you really think he'd go down in marriage?"
He continued, "Besides, his family situation is complicated. You won't be very happy with him. My family is very traditional. My parents don't have that much ambition. They just want me to find a girl and settle down."
Shen Yueze removed the arm that was draped over her shoulder, then wrapped his arms around her waist tightly, making it hard for her to breathe. She whispered a complaint, "What are you doing?"
Shen Yueze said, "Stop trying to make yourself look good."
"Don't interrupt me. I don't want to fight you today. You didn't get enough of a beating last time, so keep going. You've been in the hospital for so many days, haven't you had enough?"
Chen Jiabai ignored her and continued talking to Wen Yining, "You'll regret this later, Ningning. Even if I don't tell you now, you'll understand. This kind of person is a natural nemesis to women."
Because he had seen how many girls Shen Yueze could attract, he concluded that this type of playboy was not suitable for a long-term relationship.
Chen Jiabai's father was not that ambitious. Although he held a high position, he had no intention of getting involved in the complicated factional struggles. He only wanted to retire peacefully and did not have a strong desire for officialdom or personal gain.
The requirements for Chen Jiabai are not high. Just live a peaceful and safe life. Don't learn the bad habits of those "red third" and "red fourth" officials. Keep your distance and don't get too close.
Shen Zongjun is different. His ancestors included figures who left their mark on history. Now, not only is he involved himself, but he also wants his relatives and son to follow the path he has laid out. This kind of man has an extreme desire for power.
However, if one wants to achieve great things and leave a lasting mark on history, it is impossible for a businessman to do so; only those who enter politics or the military can.
Chen Jiabai then reminded her, "You haven't known him long enough, and you haven't met his other close friends. It will shatter your expectations. Seriously, how normal do you think he can be when he's hanging out with this group?"
Seeing that things were getting a bit confrontational, Shen Kuo changed the subject and interrupted them.
Ye Qingchi was also perceptive and separated the two of them.
Shen Yueze said, "Doesn't Feng Yan have any possessiveness towards you? Doesn't he care that you're out having fun late at night?"
"I don't care. Besides, he's so busy, he doesn't even know where I am."
Her limbs felt weak and she was sleepy. She put down her glass, feeling that the alcohol was too strong. She put the money she had won into her bag, a little worried that she might pass out later, but she felt inexplicably safe with Shen Yueze by her side.
"I'm curious, after you get married, will your wife have to report to you every time she goes out? Will she have to control everything you do?"
"Um,"
He stared at her. "I also need to install a location tracking system and a listening device on her phone. I'm very suspicious; there can't be any secrets."
Wen Yining curled her lips, "Pervert, then your wife has completely lost her freedom, she doesn't even have any privacy."
In fact, he had already gone through her phone, and even recovered the deleted chat history using special methods, just like investigating a suspect.
/
In the latter half of the evening, Wen Yining only remembered drinking a few cocktails, and Chen Jiabai fell asleep on the sofa, and she herself quickly lost consciousness as well.
When the show ended, Shen Kuo saw that Wen Yining was sleeping so soundly that he couldn't wake her up. He asked Jing Yao to pat Wen Yining twice, but she didn't open her eyes, turned over, and continued to sleep.
Seeing this, Shen Kuo sensed something was wrong and asked his cousin, "Did you drug her?"
Shen Yueze calmly sent a message to the driver, readily admitting, "Yes."
"Sex drugs?"
"It's not harmful to your health."
Shen Kuo was mainly worried about safety, and he preferred to avoid trouble. "I don't think she has any intention of getting back together with you."
"Who cares if she has it or not?"
Then, Shen Yueze picked her up and prepared to leave. The driver, who had been called in advance, waited at the door to help him with his coat and Wen Yining's bag.
Jing Yao didn't know much about her boyfriend's younger brother either, so she shook his arm, signaling him to stop her. "Ask him if he'll cause any trouble. Talk to him properly when he's sober. What's the difference between drugging him and being drugged?"
Shen Kuo chuckled, "It's good that he listens to me. He doesn't even listen to his father. What use am I?"
However, I still gave them a word of advice: "Don't go too far, be careful."
Shen Kuo clicked his tongue and shook his head slightly. "Forget it, with your strong personality, most people couldn't handle it."
Jing Yao recalled the past and said, "Did he learn it from you? You two are truly a family."
