Chapter 78 78 Feeling used
-
"Being held in someone's arms and led hand in hand, your steps are unsteady, you feel like you're floating, and you don't even do anything?"
Their ambiguous relationship made anyone who saw them think they were lovers, or even the kind who had slept together.
There are many people inside.
Her expression was somewhat stiff as she slowly moved backward. He held down her skirt, ripped the fabric flat, and pulled it out with his hand. She was flustered and helpless, her whole body was cold, and her back was covered in a layer of cold sweat.
She offered a weak explanation, "Besides, this was the first time I met him today. I don't know him at all; we just had a meal together."
He sneered, "You're like this the first time we met? What if we meet a few more times? You'd be willing to spread your legs and let them have their way with you, right?"
"No, can't you speak properly?!"
She shoved him away abruptly, turned her head away, and tried to get out of the car from the other side. She had just opened the door when he slammed it shut and locked it again. "What are you doing? Can't I even get out?"
The interior of the car was cramped, stuffy, and humid.
Outside, Cheng Yuzhou's face was inches away. She cursed Shen Yueze a few times, but he pretended not to hear. He grabbed her by the collar and pulled her closer. She was forced to get close to him, her lips almost touching his chin, and her neck was encircled.
Her thin dress and long hair were now soaked with the smells of the private room. Every movement she made exuded a strong smell of alcohol, as well as a men's cologne that didn't belong to him.
He had never used this product, but he had smelled it on his elders when he accompanied his father to social events, so he had a vague impression of it. Men in their thirties and forties like it.
"Then you have to do something to make me talk properly. You're in such a dazed state right now, like you've been plied with a lot of alcohol, saying nothing happened. How am I supposed to believe you?"
Wen Yining didn't know how to explain. They did drink the nuptial wine, but it was just a game. Everyone present had played it, and she didn't want to spoil the fun.
"Two hours ago, you messaged me saying you were filming on set."
She remained silent, gripping his forearm and trying to pull away, but it was no use. The difference in strength was too great, almost overwhelming. She was forced to look up again and had no choice but to look directly into his eyes.
He stared at her, and asked slowly and mockingly, "What were you doing with him when you sent those two sentences? Singing to him, drinking from the same cup?"
"So you're still letting someone fuck you with your legs wide open? By the way, he knows you have a boyfriend and wants you to break up with him. When did we officially become a couple? Who is this boyfriend you're talking about, Chen Jiabai?"
"..."
She mentioned her boyfriend as a way to indirectly reject Mr. Peng, but he assumed that all the men she dated in college were ordinary guys from poor families and told her to break up with him.
She didn't explain much; people have plenty of choices, and once they sober up, they probably won't even remember her name.
She moved back a little in the seat, and he followed suit. When he got impatient, he suddenly shoved her against the backrest.
"ah…"
Wen Yining gasped as her head was pressed against a leather cushion, her face pressed tightly against it, and she was forced to face him.
He emphasized the lack of discipline: "I still feel that you could easily hook up with Chen Jiabai behind my back at any time."
Wen Yining bit his hand hard, a complex mix of emotions welling up inside her, her chest tight, her breath catching in her throat, her face turning pale, and her voice trembling with tears, "I shouldn't have broken up with him. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have broken up."
He was bitten quite hard by her bite, hissing in pain. He pulled back, glanced at it, and saw a deep tooth mark that had bled. The anger he had been suppressing surged up. "He's easier to fool than me. He's stupid and rich. No matter how many times I cheat on him, if you say a few nice words and put on an act, you'll be fooled. I'm not as easy to fool as him, Wen Yining."
“…”
He said in a deep voice, "I'm just asking you, did you come here voluntarily tonight? Did anyone force you?"
"..."
No.
She had nothing to say. Cheng Yuzhou had made it very clear on the phone that there would be benefits to coming, and he could even help her find connections to get more screen time in the movie.
These past few days, she had witnessed Fang Nong's performance in that role. Just one scene was enough to shock the people present, who were amazed by her extraordinary talent and charisma. Shi Yuheng said that Fang Nong was born for the big screen, a heartfelt exclamation.
She knew she was inferior to Fang Nong in every way, whether it was acting skills or the unspoken rules. That kind of panic was unbearable and could not be made up for by hard work. It even surpassed the panic of losing him.
Shen Yueze nodded, suppressing his anger, and asked knowingly, "It has nothing to do with Cheng Yuzhou. You would come if it were anyone else. You would be willing to sleep with someone just because they give you some benefits?"
She wanted to say no, but hesitated. She hadn't before, but after meeting a man older than her today, she was truly wavering...
President Peng is not married yet, but he also doesn't have a steady girlfriend. He is very generous, even more so than Cheng Yuzhou. Cheng Yuzhou said that as long as someone is pretty enough, he will meet many women with the same qualities as Shen Yueze in the future, but he can't have both.

...
Cheng Yuzhou was extremely anxious outside the Land Rover, pounding on the car window with his hands and feet, feeling incredibly agitated. He was afraid that Cheng Yuzhou might do something drastic.
He yelled at the car, "Shen Yueze, you fucking open the door! I'm the one who brought her out today. Open the door and I'll talk to you slowly, you bastard!"
The constant impacts made his hands and arms ache. He pressed his face against the wall and peered inside, but all he could see was darkness. All he could hear was Shen Yueze's gloomy and cold voice.
To be honest, no man could tolerate catching his woman flirting with another man.
If he offers money and resources to negotiate seriously, and then sees that the woman is cheating on him while looking for someone else, then he'll have to retaliate.
Seeing Shen Yueze's calm and indifferent demeanor, which clearly indicated he was suppressing his emotions, he was even a little afraid to hit Wen Yining. With her small and thin frame, she was far too strong for any man.
With all four car windows closed, no one could see what was happening inside. Cheng Yuzhou was so anxious that his heart was beating faster than the two people inside. He kicked the car door hard.
The assistant, who had just stepped out of the elevator with his coat in his hand, rushed over, looking bewildered, and asked, "What's wrong, boss? This isn't your car, is it?"
"Shen Yueze, damn it."
Cheng Yuzhou took out his phone and handed it to his assistant, "Call his dad right away."
After thinking for a moment, he stopped her again: "Wait, no, forget it, let's call Ye Qingchi instead."
Then, he walked around the side of the Land Rover to the front, peered through the glass, and saw that bastard Shen Yueze grabbing Wen Yining by the neck, his expression indifferent and gloomy, interrogating her with a fierce force, as if he wanted to strangle her to death.
Wen Yining kept backing away, her face full of guilt, yet also revealing a stubbornness.
"Oh no, something bad is going to happen."
Cheng Yuzhou said uneasily.
The call connected on Ye Qingchi's end. "What's wrong, cousin? What's the emergency?"
Cheng Yuzhou said breathlessly, "Come over here and try to persuade Shen Yueze, otherwise I'm worried that someone might die."
That's an exaggeration, but he felt that if he didn't stop it, it might happen soon anyway. He had the right to disregard social rules, and his cousin could control how unconventional he was. But this whole thing started because of him, and his dad would have to settle accounts with him later.
Ye Qingchi clicked his tongue dismissively, "Where are you guys? It can't be that serious. Who are you with? Who offended him? Are you guys drunk?"
“Hey, Wen Yining,” Cheng Yuzhou didn’t bother to explain further, “He’s attacking Wen Yining right now, and he’s even locked the car door. No matter how much I bang on it from the outside, he won’t pay any attention to me.”
As they were talking, he kicked them twice.
Ye Qingchi, who was sitting across the table, heard the commotion and got up from the table, asking with some skepticism, "He doesn't hit girls, does he? Did you see him do it?"
"I saw it."
"Is it really necessary, just because of what happened tonight?"
"What's the meaning?"
"I sent him the video."
Ye Qingchi must have gone out. He was about to hang up when he said, "I'm going over to check now. There's no need to tell his dad. If you can't persuade him, just tell Shen Kuo."
This person is the grandson of Shen Yueze's second grandfather, a distant relative. The two have a good relationship and keep in touch frequently. Shen Kuo is a few years older than Shen Yueze.
Before the reinforcements arrived, Shen Yueze pushed open the car door, got out, his face cold and shrouded in gloom. There were several scratches on his arms and a glaring bite mark on the side of his wrist, from which he was bleeding.
Cheng Yuzhou thought the two had started fighting, and it seemed they were evenly matched, otherwise why would they be bleeding?
He immediately stepped forward and asked, "What happened to your hand? Did you fucking hit someone?"
He ignored them, slammed the car door shut, almost smashing it, and a loud "bang" echoed in the underground parking garage, making all three of them tremble.
"Shen Yueze, where are you going?! You fucking calm down!"
Cheng Yuzhou stopped him from leaving.
Shen Yueze shook him off, got into the driver's seat without a word, closed the car door again, and locked it.
Cheng Yuzhou nearly got his foot run over by a tire. He stumbled a few steps, cursed, and ordered his assistant, "Hurry up, drive and follow them!"

A note from the author:
Some people forgot an important point: they're not a couple. [laughing and crying emoji]
-
Yesterday, while surfing the internet, I happened to see a quote someone said...
"Nowadays, 'feel-good' dramas, 'sweet' dramas, and 'fast-paced' dramas are all the rage. They want misunderstandings to be resolved in the next second, and for the protagonist to be bullied one second and then get revenge the next."
However, some people's common sense is not understood and they are called stupid.
My writing style isn't like this at all. This book is about writing characters with many flaws, which will make readers angry or speechless [laughing and crying emoji].
[But please don't make me revise the story; if I can't stand it, I'll definitely drop it.]
It's a perfect sweet romance novel, but I've gotten tired of writing them before; they just don't feel interesting anymore [laughing and crying with face covered]. The main character seems to be programmed, making me feel like they're a robot.
"Indulgent Afternoon" is very good, the others are so-so.
It's not nice to talk about my old articles like this, but by comparing them, I know what I really want to write. [Cat emoji][Loud-eared rabbit emoji][Panda emoji]
This book contains emotions and desires; the protagonist doesn't exist solely for the sake of the other person, nor does she have only one choice.
