Chapter 225 Deflowering
Standing at the door of the guest room, Gu Lanlan felt like a little octopus that had been grilled, her face definitely bright red.
This was the first time in her life that she had entered a hotel with a man.
She's actually not young anymore, but she has zero dating experience.
She didn't know what the right thing to do was at that moment.
Rather, she never dreamed that although she was the one who took the initiative to invite Gu Jinci, it was Gu Jinci who bought the tickets, and even more so, he bought a two-day, one-night package.
"Maybe... we should just forget about it..."
"What do you mean, 'let it go'?"
Gu Jinci placed one hand on Gu Lanlan's shoulder.
He used his other hand to swipe the room card and open the heavy door to the guest room.
"I bought a two-day pass, aren't you going to come with me?"
Gu Jinci's voice revealed a hint of grievance.
"No, I want to stay with you!"
Gu Lanlan turned to look at Gu Jinci, and her heart couldn't help but race when she met his smiling eyes.
As for handsome men, she's seen plenty of them.
Bai Yichen is gentle and refined, while Lu Junyan is handsome to an excessive degree and authoritative.
However, only Gu Jinci could make her feel this way.
Gu Lanlan's face was burning hot, and her limbs were stiff from being so nervous.
She didn't know whether she walked in on her own or was pushed in by Gu Jinci; she just inexplicably ended up by the bedside.
"Um... am we... moving too fast?"
Gu Lanlan's tongue curled up.
Gu Jinci smiled gently.
Don't you like me?
"I...I...I...I like you..."
Gu Lanlan spoke so softly that she could barely hear the last half-sentence herself.
"Then rest assured and entrust yourself to me. Don't worry, I'll be very gentle with you..."
Gu Jinci's calm voice was like magic, and Gu Lanlan couldn't resist it at all.
She didn't even know how Gu Jinci had somehow managed to strip her naked.
All she knew was that she was pushed onto the bed by Gu Jinci in a daze, and then they were intimately involved.
This was Gu Lanlan's first time.
She thought that Gu Jinci's gentleness towards her must not be a lie.
However……
After Gu Jinci comfortably vented his anger on Gu Lanlan, he got out of bed, took a shower, and then went back to bed to light a cigarette.
Water droplets trickled down her damp hair and onto the bridge of her high nose.
Gu Jinci was scrolling through his phone while puffing out smoke.
Chu Qingxue sent several messages on WeChat.
Chu Qingxue: Joker, what are you doing? Why aren't you replying to my WeChat messages?
Gu Jinci, also known as the Joker, glanced at Gu Lanlan, who was lying unconscious on the bed with blood staining the sheets beneath her, and simply replied with a few words:
Busy helping innocent young girls lose their virginity!
Chu Qingxue paused for a moment after receiving the WeChat message, then sneered:
Would you meet an innocent young girl?
Joker: Changing things up is better than being a chicken like you.
Chu Qingxue's hand trembled, and she almost dropped her phone.
She gritted her teeth indignantly, but there was nothing she could do to Joker.
Chu Qingxue: The Fu family has gone bankrupt, and I've lost another helper. If you still want Lu's shares, you'll have to help me find a way.
Joker: I don't know how to pursue men. You can't win Lu Junyan's heart, so what can I do? You're the one who needs to think this through. I'll give you another month. If you can't get Lu's shares after a month, I'll send you back to the US to live the life you used to live.
Chu Qingxue stared at her phone; every word Joker sent sent chills down her spine.
You dare!
She gritted her teeth and replied with those two words.
Joker didn't reply, so she sent a long string of threats—
I'm telling you, I've already returned to City A. Regardless of whether Lu Junyan marries me or not, I will always be his first love and his unattainable dream. He can't let you take me away. Even if he doesn't love me, he will always protect me.
Chu Qingxue still had this confidence.
Perhaps Lu Junyan no longer has the feelings he had for her in high school, but as long as she holds the identity of A Chu, Lu Junyan will never let anyone harm a hair on her head.
Joker looked at the text message sent by Chu Qingxue and replied with "Hehe".
News of the Fu family's bankruptcy spread like wildfire, and Jiang Ning also heard about it.
Today, Yuan Pei invited her to Jingjiang Dihua.
This hotel was originally acquired by the Fu family, but after the Fu family went bankrupt, it eventually fell into the hands of the Yuan family.
Given that the Yuan family already operates the Violet Grand Hotel chain, it's understandable that they would acquire Jingjiang Dihua at a bargain price.
However, returning to this hotel again filled Jiang Ning with a myriad of emotions.
"Life is truly unpredictable!"
Yuan Pei walked beside Jiang Ning and knew what Jiang Ning was lamenting.
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river... My dad often says that the business world is ever-changing, and it's a matter of life and death."
Seeing the surprise in Jiang Ning's eyes, Yuan Pei pouted.
"What kind of look is that? Even if I'm a rich kid, I'm an ambitious one, not a hands-off boss. I've helped out a lot with the family business... although I can't compare to Brother Lu!"
Yuan Pei touched his nose.
"You see, the reason I called you here today is to talk about serious business."
As Yuan Pei spoke, he suddenly grabbed Jiang Ning's hand.
Before Jiang Ning could react, Yuan Pei had already pulled him to a marble statue.
"After our Yuan family takes over this hotel, I plan to renovate it. Can you give me some advice?"
"I?"
Jiang Ning was surprised and pulled his hand out of Yuan Pei's hand.
Yuan Pei didn't actually hold her hand for very long, but the back of her hand was already covered in sweat.
Jiang Ning turned his head and looked around.
She felt the hotel's heating was just right, neither too hot nor too cold, and she couldn't understand why Yuan Pei's palms were so sweaty.
"I'm not a professional interior designer. If it were jewelry design, I could give you some advice."
"You don't need to be so modest. You have good taste and aesthetic sense, and I trust you."
Yuan Pei patted his chest.
And so, Jiang Ning inexplicably became Yuan Pei's advisor, and Yuan Pei dragged him around the entire Jingjiang Imperial City several times.
As it got dark, Yuan Pei said he would invite her to dinner there.
Jiang Ning was not surprised by the invitation.
The elegant light yellow halter dress she's wearing now was a gift from Yuan Pei.
If you're just here to be an advisor, there's absolutely no need to dress like this.
It was obvious that Yuan Pei was planning to invite her to dinner.
The two of them sat by the window, with a great view of the dazzling night scene outside.
The dining table was decorated with romantic candlelight and a few rose petals.
If it's just flower petals, it won't cause Jiang Ning to have an allergic reaction.
Jiang Ning never imagined that one day she would have a candlelight dinner alone with Yuan Pei.
You should know that Yuan Pei used to call her a "yellow-faced woman" all the time, especially after Chu Qingxue returned to the country.
Jiang Ning's expression changed slightly upon thinking of Chu Qingxue.
"What's wrong? Is the dish not good?"
Yuan Pei noticed the change in Jiang Ning's expression.
Before Jiang Ning could say "no," Yuan Pei raised his hand and called over a waiter.
"How can I help you...?"
The waiter's words came to an abrupt halt.
Jiang Ning was quite surprised to see the waiter.
"Fu Xinyue?"
