She vaguely sensed a young man sitting down next to her, and she braced herself to deal with him.
"Miss, you look absolutely stunning today." The glib flattery that came out at the beginning was clearly a well-practiced trick, which immediately made Xu Xinchen lose interest.
The man's gaze lingered on her, and he moved even closer to her.
Xu Xinchen was about to leave when she suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure.
Liu Zhang was accompanied by a busty beauty she didn't recognize.
He was talking to the woman and a man, and their voices could be faintly heard by her.
"That girl didn't come along this time? Isn't she your little follower?"
"Don't mention that woman, she's too clingy. I'm already planning to dump her. My sweet little baby is much better." He said with a grin, kissing the woman next to him.
"You used to cherish it so much, haven't you changed your taste now?"
"I was so blind back then," Liu Zhang said, looking regretful. "If I'd known that woman was so troublesome, I wouldn't have messed with her. I taught her a lesson before I left, and she behaved herself..."
Xu Xinchen's heart skipped a beat, and she pricked up her ears to listen intently, but unexpectedly a head suddenly loomed right in front of her.
"Miss, what are you thinking about? Why won't you answer when I call you?"
She was anxious and pushed him away, but Liu Zhang was nowhere to be seen. Her mind raced, "He just said he'd taught her a lesson, could it be...?"
Her pupils contracted, and she prepared to get up and look for him.
But the man behind her grabbed her wrist with lightning speed, asking, "Where are you going?"
"Let go." She tried anxiously to shake him off.
But instead of advancing, the man retreated, watching her struggle silently with great interest. After playing for a while, he suddenly pulled her, and she fell onto his lap.
He subdued her instantly, and she screamed and yelled.
The man covered her mouth with his hand, preventing her from making a sound.
His hand touched her arm, which felt hairy. Xu Xinchen felt as if insects were crawling on her arm, and she felt nauseous, but she couldn't move her body.
She watched in despair as the man grinned lewdly and leaned his head closer to her.
The next second, the man froze, his eyes wide open as he stared ahead. Xu Xinchen felt a dizzying sensation, and then she fell into a familiar embrace.
Gu Yan supported her, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he looked at the man sitting on the ground in front of him.
He released her and kicked the man hard. There was a crisp sound, a cracking sound, as if bones were breaking.
A loud, wailing cry instantly drew everyone's attention.
At the same time, water splashed behind them with a loud thud.
Gu Yan turned around and saw Xu Xinchen fall into the water. Without thinking, he jumped in immediately.
By the time Xu Xinchen was rescued, the man had already slipped away in the chaos. She was soaking wet, and her short dress was completely undone.
The bottom was pressed against her body, exposing her curves.
With a gloomy expression, Gu Yan picked up the soaking wet girl and walked out, pushing through the crowd.
Inside the elevator, Xu Xinchen, who had already come to her senses, stared blankly at his tense jawline. Suddenly, a piercing pain shot through her knee.
Gu Yan looked at her sensitively, "Where does it hurt?"
She pointed to her feet.
Gu Yan looked at the foot; it was swollen beyond recognition, like a steamed bun.
He said coldly, "Endure it."
Xu Xinchen sensed the emotions hidden in his voice and felt a little confused, but before she could think about it, she suddenly realized that the two of them were now very close to each other in an extremely intimate manner.
His hand was on her waist, and although he didn't move, she could feel the continuous warmth emanating from it.
She felt very uncomfortable.
He hung his head and didn't say anything.
Once they arrived at the hotel room, Gu Yan put her on the bed and then called a waiter to bring over the medicinal wine.
He didn't seem to be leaving. She turned her head away; she couldn't change her wet clothes like this.
The wet clothes were sticking to her body and were not breathable, which was very uncomfortable. She wanted to go to the bathroom to change, but she had only taken one step when Gu Yan pressed her back onto the bed.
"Where else do you want to go? Stay here and don't move."
He spoke with a serious expression.
