Chapter 38
As the boy spoke, a faint smell of alcohol wafted over, indicating he was slightly tipsy.
Jiang Yi is not an obedient person. Just because she tells him not to do anything reckless doesn't mean she won't do anything reckless herself. She's really dreaming.
She reached out, lifted his shirt, and then touched his abs, her eyes filled with a hint of allure, and said, "What if I do something inappropriate?"
Xu Wang remained silent for a moment, then said, "If that's the case..."
He quickly got up, turned around and left: "Then I'll go back to my room next door."
Jiang Yi was so angry that she scratched the wall.
The two had their first sexual encounter after Xu Wang started working. During that time, they were both quite busy. He was busy traveling for work, and she was overwhelmed with work. As a result, they didn't see each other for a long time. Although they sent messages every day, it was just chatting on their phones and didn't really help.
That day, after Xu Wang finished his work, he sent her a message early, telling her: "I'll pick you up tonight."
Jiang Yi still had a lot of things to finish, so upon seeing his message, she quickly replied: "Yeah, but I might not get off work until very late."
It's okay if it's later. After all, the two of them haven't seen each other for a long time. If they don't see each other now, they'll be busy for a while and it will be even longer before they see each other again.
So, Xu Wang came to pick him up that evening.
This wasn't his first time here, so he was very familiar with her company. She graduated a year earlier than him, so she was already familiar with the company's business.
Of course, Xu Wang is no less capable. He started working at his family's company in his second year of university, and after graduation, he went straight into management. He worked his way up step by step through his own abilities and is currently living a very successful life.
She was busy at the computer, while he picked up a magazine to read, occasionally glancing up at her before continuing to read.
People occasionally came into the office, and because he was so strikingly handsome, people would often look over at him.
Xu Wang had long known that his good looks were a resource, but not his most valuable asset, so he let others see them freely.
When Jiang Yi had almost finished her work, he walked over, hands in his pockets, and offered her his hand: "Beautiful lady, want to walk together?"
Jiang Yi looked up, smiled at him, then put her hand on his and left with him.
The two of them went to eat first, and after eating, they went to Xu Wang's place.
Just as they reached the door and took off their shoes, he put his arm around her waist, she clung to his shoulders, and then they stumbled inside, falling onto the sofa and kissing passionately. Only after the kisses had finished expressing their longing did they realize that their position was far too shameful.
Unfortunately, both of them had feelings for each other.
Jiang Yi then asked, "Are we going to do it or not?"
Xu Wang's eyelashes fluttered, and as he glanced at the beautiful curves of the young woman's body in front of him, his Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily. Finally, he uttered a soft "Mmm."
They had already prepared a condom, and their passion ignited instantly. Their clothes fell from the doorway into the room, and finally, in the dimly lit room, they made love for the first time.
During her year of work, Jiang Yi learned to smoke due to excessive work pressure. After finishing her business, she smoked one in the bathroom, but the man stubbed it out halfway through. He threw the cigarette butt into the trash can and said, "Don't smoke so often in the future."
Jiang Yi was surprised to be discovered and felt a little guilty. She lowered her head, not daring to look at him, and said, "I rarely smoke."
I only smoke when I'm under too much pressure.
Xu Wang grabbed her waist and pinned her against the sink, making her look up at him. He said in a low, husky voice, "If you need anything, come to me. Don't touch these things that are bad for your health."
Jiang Yi's "hmm" was broken amidst the violent shaking.
After that, the two moved in together, and Xu Wang would often pick her up from get off work when he had free time.
The two also had a cat, a stray they had picked up. They found it downstairs in their apartment complex one day, and seeing how pitiful it looked, as if it was seriously ill, Jiang Yi took it in.
Then the two of them began a shameless and carefree cohabitation life.
However, in the second year after graduation, Xu Wang and Jiang Yi's relationship still encountered problems.
The incident began like this: Jiang Yi often had to meet with clients for work, and before she knew it, she had become too close to a good-looking client. Unfortunately, the client was interested in her, but she was completely unaware of it.
Xu Wang reminded her several times, but she didn't pay attention and only said, "I only have a working relationship with him, nothing more."
Xu Wang, unable to get through to her reminders, grew angry and arranged for a secretary to be placed next to him. Every time Jiang Yi appeared, she would see the curvaceous secretary. Unfortunately, the secretary was ordered by Xu Wang to act as if she was interested in Jiang Yi whenever she appeared.
And so the battle between the two began.
Jiang Yi was annoyed. She remained silent at his company, but when she got home, she started a fight with him, beat him up, and the two of them did it again. Still not satisfied, Jiang Yi said angrily, "Couldn't you have transferred her away?"
She believed in Xu Wang's character, but disliked a woman who was interested in him constantly hovering around him.
Xu Wang said calmly, "Then can you stop contacting your male client?"
Jiang Yi's eyes widened suddenly, as if she understood something, and she immediately threw a pillow at him: "Xu Wang, you're being unreasonable."
Xu Wang also lost his temper, sneered, and put on his clothes beside him, saying, "Am I being unreasonable? You can't stand my secretary, so how can I tolerate a man who is interested in you hanging around in front of you every day?"
Jiang Yi said incredulously, "You don't believe me?"
Xu Wang denied it: "No, I just don't like it."
"You need to understand that clients and secretaries are different," Jiang Yi told herself, trying to reason with him as quickly as possible.
Xu Wang replied indifferently, "Oh, oh."
Seeing his attitude, Jiang Yi knew there was no point in talking. In that instant, she suddenly felt a sense of despair. Taking deep breaths to compose herself, she looked at him and asked, "Do you want to break up?"
Xu Wang didn't think it was a big deal at first, but when this woman actually brought up breaking up, he got angry and said coldly, "If you want to break up, then break up."
Jiang Yi's nose suddenly stung with tears, then she laughed, her voice tinged with bitterness, and said, "Alright, let's break up then."
Xu Wang regretted what he said, but what's done is done. Besides, they really needed to calm down. So, when Jiang Yi packed her things and left with the kitten, he didn't stop her.
After everyone left and the house was empty, he realized what had happened.
When Jiang Yi was leaving, Xu Wang tried to stop her, saying it was too late and asking her to stay. However, she insisted on leaving, taking the cat and her clothes with her, and left without hesitation.
She was very busy with work and had many things to do. She needed a calm and rational comrade-in-arms like herself, not a childish guy like him who would make wild guesses and test her all the time. So, she chose to leave without hesitation.
She left without looking back, but when she arrived at the house she had recently bought and renovated, looking at the empty house and the cat that seemed a little panicked in the face of the new environment, she suddenly felt a little lost and inexplicable.
She and Xu Wang had been together for so long that they once thought they would never be apart.
However, in the end, they still broke up.
Not because of any matter of principle, nor because of any parental objection, but simply because of a very, very small thing.
She sat on the sofa, and after a while, belatedly lay down, covered her face, and curled up in the chair.
Tears rolled down her cheeks. She felt terrible, as if her body had been drained of all its energy, making it hard to breathe. It was so painful.
How did they break up like that?
How could they break up like this? Jiang Yi couldn't understand, and felt like she couldn't breathe.
However, she wasn't one to let emotions cloud her judgment, so the next day, she pulled herself together and went to work.
Xu Wang, like her, was also a stubborn person, so for a period of time afterward, even if the two happened to meet, they acted like strangers.
Jiang Yi's colleagues could clearly sense that she had changed recently. Although she was still as energetic as before, she was much more depressed. When they noticed that the handsome guy who used to pick her up was no longer there, they understood everything.
They broke up.
To appease Jiang Yi, the assistant jokingly offered to take her to find male models, but Jiang Yi wasn't interested. She waved them off and went home.
She didn't have many hobbies. When she got home, she would pet her cat, then grab a bottle of wine and start drinking.
She drank too much, and the bottle fell to the ground. The kitten, who was jumping around in the house, noticed she was unhappy. It came over to take a look, and then started playing with the bottle.
Jiang Yi glanced at the kitten, then went back to sleep.
The next time I encountered Xu Wang was that evening when I met with a client. This client was a bit difficult to deal with. After leaving the dinner, they were drunk and their words were rather unpleasant, with a hint of mockery and innuendo.
Jiang Yi pretended not to hear. When the other person reached out, she had a cold expression and then quietly pushed the hand back.
Xu Wang appeared at that moment. Without hesitation, he punched her, then pulled her behind him. His gaze was icy, like that of a wild beast.
The person opposite was suddenly punched and felt a pain on his face. Just as he was about to retaliate, he saw Xu Wang and instantly sobered up.
They couldn't afford to offend the young master of the Xu family, so they quickly flattered him, saying, "Young Master Xu!"
The young man's eyes were filled with violence. He gripped Jiang Yi tightly and glared at them coldly: "Get out!"
Those men knew they couldn't afford to offend him, so they quickly left.
Xu Wang, holding Jiang Yi's hand tightly, led her away.
Jiang Yi tried to break free the whole way, but couldn't. In the end, he brought her into the car. He was probably furious. He didn't say a word the whole way, his face was tense, and the atmosphere in the car was so tense that it felt like you couldn't breathe.
Jiang Yi didn't know where he was taking her. She asked him to stop the car, but he ignored her and could only let him take her away.
Xu Wang took her to the nearest hotel.
The hotel was under their family's name, so there was no need to go through any formalities. After taking the elevator, he led her upstairs. Once in the room, he closed the door, pinned her against it, and then, without a second thought, leaned down and kissed her.
With a "slap," Jiang Yi's hand fell and struck the man's snow-white face.
Xu Wang paused, looking at her with a somewhat cold expression.
Jiang Yi moved her hand aside, suppressing her anger, and asked, "Xu Wang, what's wrong with you?"
"Yes, yes, I'm going crazy."
Xu Wang was so angry that he jumped up and down and rushed towards the door. When he saw Jiang Yi standing there motionless, he rushed back and fiercely pulled her into his arms, his eyes bloodshot as he glared at her.
After a while, he suddenly lowered his head, his voice hoarse, and said, "I was wrong."
The apology came as a bit off-putting, leaving Jiang Yi somewhat bewildered. She turned her head to the side and asked, "What are you apologizing for?"
Xu Wang gave a wry smile: "Shouldn't I apologize?"
Jiang Yi pursed her lips.
To be honest, she was also at fault in this matter. Xu Wang had said many times that she minded, but she didn't take it seriously.
Jiang Yi said, "You don't need to apologize."
"Jiang Yi, I don't want to break up," Xu Wang said, looking down at her eyes. In the days since they separated, he had thought of her day and night, of her eyes, her sweet smile, the way she blushed in his arms, and all sorts of other images of her.
She came from a different background than him, and was a girl. Logically, he should have been more understanding, but he didn't. Xu Wang hated his own narrow-mindedness.
Jiang Yi was actually reluctant to part with it.
Now that Xu Wang has apologized, she doesn't want him to take advantage of the situation. After flicking her hair, she turned her face to the side, suppressing the smile on her lips, and said, "But I think we're not a good match."
So, do you still want to break up?
"We'll see how you perform," Jiang Yi said.
Jiang Yi had said all this, and Xu Wang knew perfectly well that this woman was deliberately manipulating him. He was so angry that his teeth itched. He grabbed her, lowered his head, and whispered in her ear, "So, how will I behave tonight? Tonight I'll serve you, and you can do whatever you want."
To be honest, Jiang Yi didn't really like to hold a grudge. Since things had already gone this far, it wouldn't be good for her to keep acting coy, so she agreed.
After one night, she suddenly began to look forward to the next time she could do whatever she wanted to Xu.
However, this man has always been domineering and is not the type to provide service at all. Although she always has a good experience, he also expects that he will have a good experience, so it's really difficult to get the same result next time.
Jiang Yi felt a little regretful. She glanced at the clothes scattered on the ground beside her and quickly got up.
Just then, the man reached out his hand and said in a hoarse and tired voice, "Don't go, stay with me a little longer."
Jiang Yi finally agreed, considering how tired he was last night.
