Ye Ningwan pursed her lips and remained silent for a long time.
At this moment, it wouldn't be appropriate for her to say anything, so she could only shut her mouth and quietly look at Li Mochuan in front of her with a questioning gaze.
Clearly, Li Mochuan had also anticipated Ye Ning's decision to remain silent at the party.
He asked Ye Ningwan.
"So, would you like to hear my thoughts now?"
Ye Ningwan poured herself another glass of water, her fingertips tracing the glass's surface, and uttered two words with difficulty.
"you say."
Li Mochuan stared into Ye Ningwan's eyes and slowly uttered a few words.
“That child named Little Star is not the son of that woman named Tang Ruanruan. He is probably your illegitimate child!” Li Mochuan said, reaching out to tuck Ye Ningwan’s loose hair behind her ear before gently stroking her cold face. “Madam Pei Jiu.”
Ye Ningwan remained silent for a long time, her face pale, staring intently at Li Mochuan who was leisurely observing her, and retorted.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Li Mochuan, is this something you can joke about?!"
Li Mochuan's gaze suddenly turned playful.
Ye Ningwan's pupils contracted sharply as she immediately realized that she had just made a mistake.
When Li Mochuan touched her face, she was too shocked and frightened to push him away immediately.
This is not the right way to treat a man who sexually harassed her not long ago. There can only be one reason for this: she feels guilty.
She felt guilty because her secret had just been revealed.
Just as Ye Ningwan was about to reach out, she heard Li Mochuan kindly remind her.
“Madam Pei, it’s too late to push me away now; it will only make you look more guilty.”
The moment those words left her mouth, Ye Ningwan's hand froze in mid-air, unsure whether to go up or down.
Now, whatever she does will be seen as a sign of guilt.
Finally, Ye Ningwan simply gave up and put her hand down, raising her head and coldly saying to Li Mochuan.
"Li Mochuan, I've already told you the truth. You can speculate however you want; it has nothing to do with me. If you think your guess is right, you can go tell Pei Fengzhi or the Pei family right now. I have a clear conscience!"
Li Mochuan chuckled softly, took Ye Ningwan's hand, and gently pried open her tightly clenched fist one by one, his fingertips lightly stroking the marks on her palms where her nails had almost drawn blood.
Li Mochuan leaned close to Ye Ningwan's ear and whispered.
"If you weren't so nervous when you spoke, maybe I would have actually believed you."
Ye Ningwan didn't want to say anything, she just turned her head away in resistance.
"Do you have any evidence? Do you think the Pei family will believe your side of the story? Li Mochuan, aren't you overestimating yourself?"
Li Mochuan chuckled softly and spoke gently to Ye Ningwan with utmost confidence.
"You really don't understand the way things work in wealthy families. Families like the Pei family don't necessarily need concrete evidence. As long as they have suspicions, or feel that their reputation or interests have been harmed, they will take the initiative to eliminate the potential threat."
"The wealthy are not like a court of law, where everything has to be presented as evidence in court."
Sure enough, Ye Ningwan's expression turned extremely ugly.
She glared at Li Mochuan, then suddenly grabbed his neck and slammed him against the wall, her fingers clenching tightly.
"Li Mochuan, do you want to die? Believe me or not, I can kill you right here and now!"
Ye Ningwan's clenched teeth and stern warning rang in Li Mochuan's ears.
He wasn't angry at all at Ye Ningwan's arrogant behavior that even challenged his authority. Instead, he laughed wildly and squinted at Ye Ningwan with a very wicked look.
"Wanwan, don't be so resistant to me. Actually, we can be on the same side. I don't need to say so much to Pei Fengzhi, right? After all, I'm not his father, and I don't have to interfere in everything he does."
As he spoke, Li Mochuan grabbed Ye Ningwan's hand that was gripping his neck, abruptly releasing her grip. Seeing her pull him into his arms, he turned around and forcefully pressed her against the wall.
Ye Ningwan struggled but couldn't break free, and instead got closer and closer to Li Mochuan.
She gasped for breath, tilted her head back, glared at Li Mochuan, and let out a cold laugh.
"Mr. Li, you must have conditions for saying this to me, right? Why don't you let me go first and tell me your requirements?"
Li Mochuan gazed at Ye Ningwan tenderly and adoringly, moving closer to her little by little, his forehead touching hers. His breath, carrying the strong scent of cigars and mixed with the aroma of hormones, enveloped Ye Ningwan.
"I can keep this a secret for you, as long as you stay with me for one night, I'll pretend I didn't see anything today."
"Don't worry, I just wanted to taste you. After tonight, you can continue being Mrs. Pei Jiu if you want, or you can divorce Pei Fengzhi if you want. It has nothing to do with me. I won't tell him what happened between us. It was just a one-night stand, a fleeting romance, nothing more."
Ye Ningwan narrowed her cat-like eyes slightly and said with a smile.
"You do find it quite appealing."
It must be admitted that Li Mochuan has an innate quality that tempts people to commit crimes, making them unable to resist following his instructions and slowly falling into his trap.
Li Mochuan slowly moved closer to Ye Ningwan, his lips close to hers. Just as his thin lips were about to touch Ye Ningwan's lips, Ye Ningwan tilted her head and dodged Pei Fengzhi's kiss.
Almost simultaneously, Li Mochuan felt a hard, tubular object pressing against a certain part of his body.
