Chapter 200
Seeing that he didn't move, Nan Yan touched his earlobes with both hands, pinched them gently, giggled, and leaned her whole body against his back.
"Boyfriend, why don't you say anything?"
She grabbed the man's neck, lowered his head, and bit him. The man's body tensed up. Nan Yan could clearly feel the man's stiff back, and smiled and kissed him.
After the kiss, she leaned on his shoulder and coaxed him with a smile, whispering, "Boyfriend, your dear girlfriend is here to pick you up. Did I hurt you? Can I touch you? Why don't you say anything? We agreed to go out for dinner together. I'm so hungry."
Nan Yan said this and pulled his fingers towards her belly. The hand paused at first, and then was pulled over obediently by her and followed her movements.
When his fingers really touched that soft belly, Nan Yan felt itchy again. She stuck to his back and dodged and moved around, but couldn't help laughing out loud. She even deliberately reached out to touch his belly and tickle his cheeks, but he didn't seem to be afraid of this and didn't react at all.
Nan Yan felt dissatisfied now, and she pulled the man over, ready to throw him into his arms and give him a good lesson. Her fingers grabbed the clothes at his waist and pulled the hem of his shirt that was tucked in from the belt.
It also made Zhong Ling turn around.
When that jade-like face was completely revealed from the light and shadow, Nan Yan rushed over with a smile. When she raised her head and met his gaze, her expression suddenly froze, and the action of throwing herself into her boyfriend's arms was abruptly stopped.
Because of the forward inertia, Nan Yan wanted to steady her body, but she failed to keep her feet steady. Her body leaned forward twice and finally fell into the other person's arms.
My head hit the other person's chest hard, and I could hear a slight groan from his chest.
Nan Yan finally realized what was going on. She had accidentally recognized the wrong person, but it was not her fault. It was because the color of the clothes this person wore today was so similar to her boyfriend's, and he was smoking in the place they had agreed on.
She only saw the similar back, so she subconsciously thought he was her boyfriend.
Who could have thought it would be him?
Nan Yan's eyes widened for a moment, and when she finally came to her senses, her facial expression returned to normal, but a hint of regret subconsciously flashed across her eyes. She instinctively wanted to climb up from his arms, holding his arms with both hands. Just as she was about to get up, someone grabbed her back and her body immediately fell forward again. The two of them instantly stuck closer.
This action made Nan Yan stunned for a moment, and then she looked up subconsciously, just in time to meet Zhong Ling's eyes. For a moment, neither of them spoke, and the expression on Nan Yan's face changed from joy at the beginning to embarrassment and regret.
She looked away awkwardly, blushing as she apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhong, I really didn't mean it this time. I just... I just recognized the wrong person. I thought you were my boyfriend, and I just made an appointment with him..."
Zhong Ling did not speak. There was no unusual expression on his face. His eyes were calm and his brows seemed to be frozen in the light, reflecting faint traces. He lowered his head and stared at the person quietly.
Then, under the other person's slightly embarrassed gaze, he raised his hand and touched his bitten neck, which was still a little wet.
This action made Nan Yan purse her lips even tighter, and her face turned red with embarrassment. It was obvious that she also thought of what had just happened. She treated the other person as her boyfriend and kissed, hugged and acted coquettishly with him. It was inevitable that she would feel embarrassed when she recalled this scene. "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it..."
Well, she didn’t mean it, she just meant it.
Zhong Ling looked at his fingers again. Under the light, his fingertips were as white as jade and slightly stained with water. He lowered his head to look at the person in front of him. The light shone on his drooping eyelashes, casting a faint shadow.
"so what?"
Zhong Ling glanced at her coldly. That look was something she had never seen before, a strange indifference that made her not know what to do, but the atmosphere in front of her was obviously wrong.
"If it wasn't intentional, it doesn't matter, right?"
Nan Yan heard the man speak calmly, with no abnormality in his voice, as if he was just asking her what to do.
"No, no, that's not what I meant."
"I apologize to you. I'm sorry. I really got the wrong person."
Nan Yan explained hastily, but she felt more and more uncomfortable being stared at by that man's calm and expressionless eyes. She took advantage of the other person loosening one of his hands and quickly reached out to pry the other hand off her waist.
She was about to struggle out of his arms, but he suddenly tightened his grip and pulled her in front of him.
Then, before she had time to react, he lifted her chin slightly and lowered his head to kiss her.
Nan Yan was so shocked by this action that she forgot to struggle for a moment. Her watery eyes widened slightly and her pupils contracted slightly. Both of them kept their eyes open. Close at hand was each other's row of thick and long eyelashes. Nan Yan could almost feel the subtle touch of the falling eyelashes brushing against her skin, which was a little itchy.
His lips were moist and cold, probably because he had just drunk ice-cold beer. There was a faint aroma of cold beer in his mouth, and his tongue was soft and hot. His hard nose bone pressed against her slender nose bridge. His throat rolled for a moment, and his tongue tip quickly drilled into her mouth, sweeping around inside and entangled with her tongue tip.
He didn't kiss her too hard, and his tongue lingered on her lips for a moment. When Nan Yan finally reacted and began to struggle, Zhong Ling calmly let go of her hand.
He didn't show any strong emotions after the kiss, even his breathing quickened for a moment when he got close to me, but he quickly returned to normal after he pulled away. He looked over at me with indifferent eyes and his eyelashes slightly drooped, making it hard to tell what he was thinking.
"Did I warn you to stay away from me?"
Zhong Ling glanced at the other person's face, suppressed the desire in his body, and spoke with a rustling throat and a slightly wet feeling, "One time per person, this time it's back."
Nan Yan finally understood what he meant. She covered her slightly numb lips and finally had the chance to speak. But after being treated like this, she didn't know what to say.
After all, I was the one who mistook him for my boyfriend first. I not only kissed and hugged him, but also touched him everywhere. It is normal for him to "retaliate" now, but this kind of "revenge" is inevitably embarrassing.
After being kissed, Nan Yan's face instantly turned redder, but she didn't know what to say now. She could only lower her head and apologize to the other party, "I'm sorry, I, I really didn't mean it. I didn't expect it would be you. I told my boyfriend that he would wait for me here, and... and, when I just pounced on you, you could have reminded me, it was you who didn't say anything..."
Zhong Ling looked at her without saying anything. She naturally heard the reproach in her words, but so what?
He really didn't react at first, he didn't know she would just lean on him. He originally just wanted to say something to her, but after he felt that the person leaning on him and kissing him was her, he really kept silent on purpose.
He originally thought that as long as he could control himself and stop thinking about the other person, he would be able to avoid something. He thought he really controlled himself. At least for such a long time, he had been suppressing a certain thought and unwillingness in his heart, and never took the initiative to contact the other person again.
But after hearing the phone call between He Mian and her just now, he didn't know why he came to this place early by himself, and deliberately sent a message to that group of people to stop He Mian and not let him leave.
Then, the moment he saw Nan Yan, Zhong Ling suddenly felt that he understood something. He had not forgotten at all, and he could not suppress his inner feelings at all.
Especially the intimate and dependent look on her face when she pounced on him, a scene that only appeared in dreams, but now it was actually happening before his eyes. This vague sense of dream made it increasingly difficult for him to control himself.
He had never known before that Yanyan was not always gentle and quiet. It turned out that she would act like a girl in love and act coquettishly with her boyfriend. She would also take the initiative to kiss him, touch him, and hug him...
This unreal yet wonderful feeling made Zhong Ling a little dazed. For a moment, he didn't know whether the emotion that surged from the depths of his heart was bitterness or jealousy? If he really had such a Yanyan, would he be able to restrain himself and let go willingly?
Zhong Ling's gaze fell on the man's hair again. His hair was black and smooth, without too much decoration, just falling softly on his shoulders. The two of them had lost contact for a long time. After not seeing each other for such a long time, the man in front of him was still the same as he remembered some time ago, without any change, and he was the same as before, he had not forgotten at all.
Zhong Ling took another step forward and pushed the person into the corner. The dim blue light made it difficult to see his expression. He forced Nan Yan to look him in the eye. "Are you saying this to blame me? Are you blaming me for not reminding you? But I was standing perfectly still. You fell here by yourself. Do you think I have a good temper and won't get angry?"
Isn't it?
南嫣抿唇看他，她眼裏閃過一絲疑惑，明顯覺得這人有些不對勁，她雖然沒把這句話問出口，但那表情的意思顯露得很明顯。
鐘嶺神色淡淡，他也沒有說話，就這麽目無波瀾地望着她，直看得南嫣覺得不适，伸手想要推開他離開這裏時。
鐘嶺忽然抓住了那只伸過來的手，沒等她反應，牢牢握住，神情冷靜又平淡地按在了腰部以下那個不太好描述的位置上。
南嫣這下也是真的傻眼了，眼睛瞪得溜圓，細軟的手指按壓在那位置上，隔着一層深黑的西裝面料，一開始挺直順滑的布料材質，再然後，那團遮掩在布料下的事物明顯有了一絲的動靜，逐漸挺拔起來。
隔着那層薄薄的料子，都能感受到那灼熱升起的溫度。
鐘嶺看她一副震驚的模樣，依舊用那副平靜到沒有一絲變化的語氣回複她，“怎麽，被吓到了？那現在還覺得我是個好人嗎？”
“不要覺得我一直以來對你說的話都是吓唬你的，這就是我一直都想要做的事情，你現在明白了嗎？”
鐘嶺的神情依舊沒什麽異樣，語氣甚至有些冷淡，好像她按的只是某個稀疏平常的位置，說完之後才将她的手指松開，又補充了一句，“脾氣再好的男人，那也是男人，是男人就會想要對喜歡的人做這種事情。”
南嫣被松開之後迅速回神，下意識地将手指縮了回去，緊緊貼在胸口，手指捏緊了，指尖繃緊到微微泛白，在燈光的照射下沒有一絲血色，仿佛那上面還殘留着他身上的溫度，一時擺脫不掉，讓她手指輕顫，耳垂紅得要充血似的，心中又窘又驚又難堪。
南嫣咬着嘴唇，她張了張口想要說什麽，可看着對方那冷靜沒什麽變化的神色，有些緊張又有些顧忌。
他今天這樣的舉動似乎徹底刷新了南嫣的認知，讓人琢磨不透，跟從前那個斯文克制的鐘嶺很不一樣。
而南嫣也從來沒被他這樣對待過，她甚至不知道自己此刻該是什麽樣的反應，不知道應該是怒還是羞，到最後理智回複，有些沒忍住朝他輕喊了聲，頗有種外強中幹的意味，“可你這麽做是強迫。”
“你以前不是這種……沒有底線的人。”
南嫣咬着唇，她以為他是不一樣的。
她說完了想離開，但被人堵得嚴嚴實實的，正好卡在了拐角的那個偏僻小角落裏，而這裏是衛生間後面，很少有人來，更難有人看見，就連落下來的燈光都是暗淡的。
她走不開，又擔心身前的人沖動之下又會做出什麽事情，便更加用力地捏着手指，可那股殘留的溫度還一直存在手心揮之不去，讓她覺得格外難為情，最後沒辦法了，只能将手掌貼在身後冷冰冰的大理石牆壁上，好像這樣就能将那股溫度散去了。
而原本打算起身的男人，在聽到她說的那句話後，又靠得更近了些，他似乎是故意的，故意看她被逼到角落沒有辦法又無力掙紮抗拒的樣子，反複幾次，最後跟她說：
“嗯，你說的沒錯，這麽做确實是很沒有底線……但，那又怎麽樣呢？”
他目光輕飄飄地掃過去，“像你這樣的女孩子，還不是沒有絲毫掙紮反抗的機會。”
鐘嶺也不知道自己為什麽要這麽做，可能真的是有點神經質了，他一直在想，以他的手段跟能力，想要得到一個沒有任何依靠跟背景的女孩子，不是一件輕而易舉的事情嗎？他明明有很多辦法可以讓她乖乖的，自己主動的送上門來。
偏偏他選擇了最笨拙的一種，想靠自己的感情跟心意來打動她，而最後，她也毫不猶豫地選擇了另一個人。
他給了她很多錢，也幫了她不少次的忙，那些事情完全可以作為資本去要挾她。
而她的性子又是那種不想虧欠別人的溫柔性子，或許一開始的時候，她确實是會很有原則的拒絕他，但時間久了呢？等她失去工作，沒有錢、沒有住的地方，徹底被逼到走投無路的時候呢？她還能堅持下去嗎？
明明一開始，他就可以用這種方法完完全全的将她控制在自己身邊，為什麽還要去做那些不靠譜的事情呢？
強迫她……
不是很容易的一件事嗎？
因為她根本沒有反抗的能力啊。
鐘嶺這麽想着，手指随意擡起，慢條斯理地伸過去，搭在她的肩膀上，掌心的溫度隔着那層薄薄的布料很快傳遞到肌膚上，南嫣似乎被他突如其來的動作吓了一跳。
她本能地想要伸手去推，卻被人一把按住了伸過來的手指，順勢貼在了胸膛上，讓她想抽都抽不回去。
鐘嶺俯下身來，臉龐故意挨過去，兩人之間本來就沒什麽阻隔，這麽一靠過來更是暢通無阻。
他一只手撐在她背後的牆壁上，像是從背後把她整個人圈在懷裏，這下子她更沒有什麽躲避的機會了。
南嫣急得冒汗，“你這是在做什麽？”
鐘嶺在想，做什麽，這不是很明顯嗎？
南嫣這下是真的着急了，眼眶也急得微紅，她好像不明白為什麽剛才還好端端的局面忽然就變成了這樣的了。
她不敢相信這人會說出這樣的話？
但對方不斷靠近的距離還是讓她本能地察覺到了危險，下意識掙紮抗拒起來，卻根本掙紮不開。
而被對方那故意湊過來的溫熱呼吸，還有某種蠢蠢欲動的态勢，都讓南嫣着急忙慌的，不由得驚慌失措呼喊了一聲，
“鐘嶺！”
“嗯，我在呢。”
鐘嶺溫柔斯文的應了一聲，不過他的動作可算不上溫柔，長腿彎曲朝前一挺，猝不及防的，輕松又強勢地分開擠進她雙膝之間，“喊我做什麽？還想要繼續摸嗎？”
他的語氣依舊從容，好像在說一件很平常的事情，“當然可以的，如果你想要的話，我一定給你。”
他說完，甚至還朝她笑了笑，不是那種清俊雅致很有禮貌的笑容，而是眉梢輕挑，故意含了幾分壞心思的捉弄，讓人根本分不清他此刻到底是真心還是故意找茬。
那雙微涼的唇又緩慢靠過來，沒有吻上去，但高挺的鼻梁故意貼着她的臉頰，“你自己撲過來的，現在好意思怪我嗎？為什麽用這種眼神看着我呢？怎麽，是覺得我很可怕嗎，覺得自己信錯了人？還是覺得我不該這樣對你，可我不是早就提醒過你了嗎？”
南嫣這下是真的慌了，被這人的話逼到退無可退的地步，她臉龐又急又紅，抿着唇，臉上簡直一副要哭出來的樣子。
“鐘嶺……你別這樣好嗎？”
但心底卻在想，這人大概不是在沉默中爆發，就是在沉默中變态了。他沉寂了那麽久，一直忍着不跟她聯系，從那天被拒絕之後，兩人就再沒有見過面，而她還時不時地故意在朋友圈秀秀恩愛。果不其然啊，這人今天确實是被她刺激到變态了。
這種不要臉的話也說得出口，他就不怕名聲掃地嗎？好歹鐘家也是個注重名聲的家庭呢。
而在另一邊的包房裏，賀冕一開始是跟人打了聲招呼就打算離開的，但愣是被這一幫損友糾纏着不讓走，說什麽都非得讓他喝完那一桌子的酒杯，說是提前退場的人都必須受到懲罰，這是規定。
賀冕一開始還不肯，可那幾個酸成檸檬的家夥一聽到他說是要去接女朋友，瞬間折騰得更起勁了，不把這一桌子的酒杯喝空今天都別想出門，一幫塑料兄弟瞬間暴露了本性，開始了合理範圍內的尖酸刻薄。
沒辦法，賀冕只能喝了一圈。
還好他酒量不錯，一桌子七八杯酒水喝下去，只覺得肚子撐了，倒是沒醉，他眯着眼睛将空酒杯扔到桌上，朝着對面那幾人示意了下，“怎麽樣，這下可以了吧？”
這下對面幾人沒阻攔的機會了，衛川也不知道剛才鐘嶺發消息給他，讓他攔住賀冕是什麽意思？但這會兒看人把一桌子的酒杯全都喝完，他也沒有理由再攔着對方了。
不過聽到賀冕出去是要接女朋友的，幾人又忍不住心癢癢起哄了，都想跟着看看賀冕那藏得跟寶貝似的女朋友到底是長得什麽天仙樣，能讓這麽一個花心大蘿蔔連酒都不喝了，提前散場帶人回家去吃飯，他們心裏能不好奇嗎？
幾個人瞧見他出門，轉個身立馬也忍不住跟上去了，他們也不是故意要打擾人家小情侶甜蜜，反正就這麽遠遠的看一眼嘛，看看就行了，絕對不會跟着瞎起哄的。
賀冕也瞧見了身後跟着的那幾個人，眉梢挑了挑，知道那群人是好奇，不過也沒阻攔，反正他們遲早也會知道的。
只不過等他到了地點，看到的不是女朋友撲過來時的歡喜笑臉，而是……
現在是什麽情況？
From a distance he saw a man standing in the corridor, slightly bent over, pushing his girlfriend into a corner and bullying her. One of his hands was pinning his girlfriend's hands to the wall behind him, while the other hand was dishonestly placed on his girlfriend's waist, trying to move inside through the hem of her clothes. He also lowered his head and approached her, probably to kiss her.
At that moment, He Mian's face changed and his eyes turned completely cold. He never thought that such a thing would happen, let alone that someone would dare to bully his girlfriend in front of him.
Especially when he saw Nan Yan's eyes slightly red and tears coming out. She was the one who was smiling and joking with him on the phone just a moment ago, but in the next second she looked so aggrieved.
The initial smile on He Mian's face disappeared completely. He now felt an inexplicable anger rising in his chest, and his heart suddenly felt like it was on fire.
He felt that even if he didn't like Wen Nanyan that much, he couldn't let anyone bully his girlfriend like this in front of him.
He Mian was indeed very angry, especially when he got closer and saw clearly who was holding Nan Yan down. His eyes narrowed quickly, and he rushed over quickly, grabbed the man by the collar and pulled him away roughly, then threw him backwards with force, hitting him heavily on the stair railing behind him.
"Zhong Ling, what are you up to?"
"What are you crazy about? Are you crazy? Look carefully, this is my person, what stupid thing are you trying to do to my girlfriend?"
After He Mian finished speaking, he directly hugged the person in his arms, took off his coat and covered her head with it, covering her completely.
Zhong Ling behind him was caught off guard for a moment. He was too immersed in the kiss just now that he didn't even notice someone coming over. This time he was completely unprepared and his back slammed into the railing behind him. A sharp pain came over him, which made him frown unconsciously.
But he quickly returned to normal, touching his lips with his slender fingers, and looked at the person opposite him calmly and naturally, "Didn't you see everything?"
After he stood up, a voice with a hint of crying suddenly came from the corridor beside him:
"...Zhongling?"
There seemed to be a hint of disbelief in her tone. She couldn't believe that the person who had just forced the girl was him. The calm and self-controlled Zhong Ling seemed to have become a different person. He actually did such a thing to the girl.
Ruan Xiaoxiao didn't know why she suddenly felt a surge of panic and fear in her heart.
Zhong Ling heard the sound and turned his head to look.
At first glance, he found that all the people who came were quite complete. In addition to his ex-girlfriend, there were also the brothers and friends who were in the private room before, all of them came together.
His eyebrows twitched slightly, but his expression quickly returned to calm. He didn't seem to mind being seen by this group of people being "violent".
But the atmosphere on the scene was clearly a little weird.
That group of people looked at Zhong Ling with strange eyes. They really didn't expect that Zhong Ling would do such a thing to a girl. And that girl just now looked quite familiar. Wasn't that the little princess he brought to the party to play before?
So what is going on here?
Is Zhong Ling crazy? Forcing a girl like this in a place like this, is he planning to go to the police station for questioning? Isn't he afraid of losing his reputation? If this matter really gets out, will he still have a future? Is this man crazy now?
She's just a pretty girl. Even if you like her, there's no need to use such coercive means?
Don't say that the girl did it voluntarily. They all have eyes and saw it clearly. Just look at the girl's struggle and her red eyes from crying. How can this prove that she did it voluntarily?
Zhong Ling slowly and methodically straightened the shirt that had been pulled up in the struggle, re-buttoned it, casually tucked the hem into his belt, and brushed back his messy black hair. Except for a few scratches on his lips, he seemed to have returned to being the serious, cold and abstinent young man in the private room just now.
It was as if the scene of him pressing someone against the wall and forcibly kissing her was just an illusion that they all had at the same time. After cleaning up, this was his normal look, calm, rational, and decent.
He turned his head and glanced at Nan Yan. She was held obediently in He Mian's arms without moving. He Mian was still whispering in her ear and patting her back with his fingers.
Zhong Ling glanced at them calmly, turned around and walked towards the door. As he passed by everyone without looking around, Ruan Xiaoxiao beside him could no longer hold back. She pulled his sleeve with grievance and embarrassment, "Zhong Ling, what on earth do you mean by this? Don't you need to give me an explanation?"
Zhong Ling raised his hand and pulled the cuff out of her hand.
"Explain what? Do I need to explain it to you?"
He turned his head and looked over there calmly.
Almost everyone could sense the coldness and disappointment in Zhong Ling's tone when he said this.
But in fact, Ruan Xiaoxiao was not the only one who wanted to hear his explanation. Even his friends around him thought that he must have drunk too much today, so he did something that was inconsistent with his identity and normality.
After all, that was Zhong Ling. They had known him well since childhood. This guy had a very strong self-control ability. When all of them urged him to skip classes and fight, he could still do his homework while listening to the latest financial news. He was the heir who was carefully cultivated by his family in the upper-class circle. He was different from those of them who just hung out all day long.
They had never seen Zhong Ling lose control, let alone force himself on a girl. They just thought it was unbelievable. Why bother?
After all, for people like them, they have countless options to choose from privately, so why do they do such a risky thing?
Even rich people don't want to get involved in legal lawsuits that would ruin their image and future.
But Zhong Ling seemed to have seen through their reactions. He turned his head slightly, and his jade-like profile became even more indifferent under the light and shadow. "I'm not drunk. It's just like what you saw. I'm forcing a girl who has no ability to resist."
He showed no remorse at all and said lightly, "I was originally planning to get a room, but I didn't have time to go. I couldn't control my body's desire, so I did it. That's what you just saw. What else do you want me to explain?"
This explanation is worse than no explanation. People don't know what to say after hearing it. If most people were found out about this kind of thing, they would either hide or push everything onto the girl and say that she seduced them.
But what is going on with Zhong Ling now? Not only does he not try to cover it up, but he also takes the initiative to confirm this reputation. He really plans to take a day trip to the police station.
But calling the police was unlikely since no real harm had occurred. Besides, they were also aware of the relationship between Zhong Ling and the girl, which was unclear at the moment.
And now, He Mian said that the girl was his girlfriend? How could he say that? It was so absurd, too absurd. She was brought here by Zhong Ling before, but now she is He Mian's girlfriend. Who could have imagined this?
I'm afraid that when we get to the police station, just to sort out this complicated relationship between men and women, the police academy uncle's brows will be so wrinkled that they can pinch a mosquito to death, and then he will warn everyone with a stern face:
Don’t mess around with men and women in the future!
This situation is indeed difficult to define, but what Zhong Ling did and said today will definitely spread in the circle, and his reputation may be completely ruined.
As for this, Zhong Ling actually doesn't care too much.
It is true that he did not do any substantial harm to Nan Yan. He just took the opportunity to expose his inner thoughts completely. He spoke powerfully, but when it came to actually doing those things that would force and hurt her, he was reluctant in his heart.
Maybe he had been too suppressed in the past period of time, and when she pulled him over for a kiss at the beginning, he couldn't control his emotions for a while. But the most excessive thing was the forceful kiss at the beginning. After seeing her crying, he wanted to wipe her tears, and after that, the distance between the two of them was a little closer, but they really didn't do anything again.
He knew that his behavior was tangled and persistent, but since he had done it, why should he be afraid of those comments?
After Zhong Ling finished speaking, he glanced back at the two people hugging each other, turned around and walked away expressionlessly, saying nonchalantly before leaving:
"Besides, you came at a very inappropriate time. It is very unethical to interrupt other people's interest."
Everyone: “…”
Shit, why didn’t they realize this guy has such a bad mouth before?
You bastard, it's obviously you who is immoral. If you don't come earlier, if you really do something bad, I'm afraid I will have to watch you behind bars in the future!
