Chapter 68 Indulge Her
Jiang Tingwan was awakened by a sharp headache.
She opened her eyes and saw an unfamiliar ceiling.
Cool gray ceiling, simple lines, and a modern chandelier.
This was not her bedroom. She tried to move her neck, but found that her whole body was sore as if it had been run over by a heavy truck.
What's worse, her brain seemed to be filled with lead, and her memory fragments were scattered and could not be pieced together.
"Where is this..."
She whispered softly, her voice so hoarse that it didn't sound like her own.
Gradually regaining consciousness, she suddenly realized that she was lying on an unfamiliar bed, and what was even more terrifying was——
She is not alone.
She could hear even breathing behind her, warm breath brushing the back of her neck, and an arm was across her waist, holding her possessively.
Jiang Tingwan's whole body stiffened. She turned her head cautiously and saw the profile of Shen Guan sleeping.
Depend on!
She gasped silently, as the memories of last night came flooding back, only to become fragmented just as they were about to become clear.
bar.
Strong liquor.
I remembered the scene of Ruan Yue lying in a pool of blood.
She remembered drinking shot after shot of tequila.
This was the first time she allowed herself to completely lose control.
She clearly booked the entire place!
Sink! Watch!
I wonder how this old fox will seduce her when he wakes up.
She didn't dare to think further, and gently lifted a corner of the quilt, and suddenly her eyes went dark -
She had red marks all over her body.
The suspicious wrinkles on the sheets and the aches and pains all over her body were silently telling her a fact that she didn't want to face.
Must run fast...
The thought exploded in her mind, more intense than the headache.
Jiang Tingwan held her breath and slowly moved Chen Guan's arm away with the caution of defusing a bomb.
The man's arms were muscular and strong, exuding an irresistible sense of power even in his sleep.
It took her a full two minutes to successfully escape from that warm embrace.
When her toes touched the cold floor, she almost fell to her knees.
The strange feeling coming from deep inside her body made her cheeks heat up.
Clothes were scattered all over the floor.
Her skirt lay like a withered flower by the door, and her underwear was nowhere to be found.
Shen Guan turned over, and Jiang Tingwan froze instantly, her heart beating like a drum.
Only after she was sure that he was still asleep did she tiptoe to collect her clothes.
The hem of her skirt moved up as she moved, revealing a few suspicious red marks on the inside of her thighs.
She bit her lower lip and quickly zipped up her pants.
A strange face appeared in the bathroom mirror.
Her makeup was smudged, her lips were slightly swollen, and her neck was covered in kiss marks.
She turned on the faucet and splashed cold water on her cheeks, trying to sober herself up.
Putting on her wrinkled skirt, she didn't even bother looking for her missing underwear.
As she grabbed her belongings, she noticed a crumpled blanket on the couch, which showed they hadn't been in the bedroom all night.
This detail brought back some flashbacks in her memory:
Chen Guan pressed her down on the sofa and kissed her. She struggled half-heartedly, and then suddenly burst into tears...
What happened after that was like a cut film, a blank.
The gate of the villa was just around the corner. When Jiang Tingwan put her hand on the door handle, she turned around and looked towards the bedroom for some unknown reason.
The morning light shone through the half-open door, casting a golden line on the floor.
She had to leave without looking back and pretend nothing had happened.
Looking at that vixen, she didn't know how to make a fuss about this matter after waking up.
Just then, there was a slight noise coming from the bedroom.
Jiang Tingwan was like a frightened bird. She quickly opened the door and rushed out. She didn't even bother to go to the elevator and ran down the stairs directly.
-------------------------------------------
Chen Guan lay on the bed, listened to the sound of the door closing, and slowly opened his eyes.
In fact, he had woken up a long time ago, and was already awake when Jiang Tingwan turned over uneasily for the first time.
But he chose to pretend to be asleep, giving her space to escape.
He knew her too well to know that exposing her right then and there would only make her build up higher walls.
The scent of her hair still lingered on the pillow, that faint jasmine scent.
Shen Guan reached out and touched the place where she had just been lying, and the bed sheet was already slightly cold.
He sat up and looked around the messy bedroom, his memory of last night as clear as yesterday.
He remembered when he found her at the Jinzun Bar.
Jiang Tingwan, who has always been elegant and reserved, huddled in a booth in the corner with half a dozen empty wine glasses in front of her.
She drinks tequila, just shots, without even salt or lemon.
When he approached, her eyes were already dazed, but she was still mechanically pouring wine into her mouth.
Shen Guan had never seen Jiang Tingwan like this before.
In his impression, she would always be the Jiang family's eldest daughter who was at ease and smiling with a dagger hidden in her heart. Even when discussing the exchange of interests such as marriage, she could maintain a perfect smile.
And last night, she was as fragile as a piece of glass about to shatter.
He took her home, originally just wanting her to have a safe sleep.
But as soon as she entered the door, she broke down and cried, grabbing his collar and asking him whether all this was true or not.
Then came the sudden kiss.
With the saltiness of tears and the heat of tequila.
He could have pushed her away.
But in that moment, he saw the real pain in her eyes, not the carefully calculated emotional performance of the past.
"Do you know who I am?"
He asked her.
Jiang Tingwan did not answer. Perhaps she could not see the person in front of her clearly. The pain in her heart made her want to find a reason to vent...
He shouldn't have continued...
But he knew her better than anyone else. He had heard about what happened in the Jiang family yesterday, plus the few words she said on the rooftop that day.
Don't blame him for taking advantage of the situation.
He was certain that if she was deceived and betrayed, she would simply build up higher defenses against everyone without any explanation.
Since he could defeat that group of side branches, she should know that he was not a gentleman...
The phone on the bedside table vibrated.
Interrupting Shen Guan's memories.
It was a message from his assistant, informing him of his schedule for the afternoon.
The warm water washed over his body and he closed his eyes.
He knew that Jiang Tingwan must be suffering from shock and regret now, and might even be planning how to draw a line between herself and him.
That proud woman would definitely regard last night as a mistake and think about how to avoid him.
But things are different now.
Shen Guan turned off the faucet, and drops of water dripped down his jawline.
Now that it has come to this, he will not let her escape.
