Bo Xu's expression remained cold.
But within his half-closed eyes burned an intensely fiery flame.
It felt as if a single glance from him would engulf her in flames, dragging her along into this chaotic abyss...
He always thought of himself as an extremely restrained person.
Over the years, not only has he been busy with his career and never looked for a woman, but he has also rarely indulged himself, even when taking a bath.
But now...
All she did today was lie in his arms and touch his abs.
He had already completely shed his indifference.
Every pore, muscle, and bone on my body, even the depths of my soul, was burning with a thirst as if a wildfire were raging.
He longed for her.
Just like parched and cracked land, yearning for sweet rain and dew.
He hoped she would shower him with rain.
Extinguish all these burning delusions...
Bo Xu sat in the empty living room, his eyes hardening, and roared, releasing all the anger, love, and desire he had been holding back...
Release them all.
He collapsed onto the sofa.
Everything seems unchanged.
The austere furnishings, the impeccably tailored suits, the restrained expressions…
But upon closer inspection, you'll find that everything has changed.
Disordered breathing, a stained shirt, and smudged lipstick marks on a glass...
Bo Xu closed his eyes, sinking into deep self-reproach and confusion.
...
The next day.
When Shen Zhiyi woke up from her drunken stupor, she found herself in her dormitory, surrounded by her roommates who were all looking at her with concern.
"Zhiyi, you're finally awake."
Liang Zaixiao brought over a glass of water. "Have some first."
"How are you? Still feeling unwell?"
"It's a good thing Mianmian and I came back last night, otherwise, how could anyone feel at ease leaving you drunk like this in the dorm?"
Su Mian: "Yeah, you have no idea how much nonsense you talked last night."
Shen Zhiyi took the water glass; her head still ached a little.
What's wrong with me?
"Don't you remember?" Su Mian said, "You were drunk yesterday, and your boss brought you back."
"My boss?!" Shen Zhiyi exclaimed in shock.
“Yes.” Su Mian blinked and laughed, “You were still clinging to him and wouldn’t let go. It took Zai Xiao and me a lot of effort to pull you off him.”
Shen Zhiyi's face flushed red.
She stared at the water glass in her hand and suddenly remembered the scene of Bo Xu feeding her hangover medicine.
She cried out "Ah!" and pounded the blanket.
"It's over..."
On the last day of my probation period, I flirted with my boss and said so many outrageous things!
Is her job going to be ruined?!
"Mianmian, Zaixiao, did you see my boss's expression last night?" Shen Zhiyi asked worriedly. "Was he very angry?"
Liang Zaixiao thought for a moment and shook her head, "I can't quite put my finger on it... but his eyes are definitely fierce."
"It's like I'm going to eat you up."
“I don’t think he’s angry.” Su Mian leaned closer, her eyes sparkling with gossip. “You touched his face, and he didn’t throw you away. He just told you not to make a fuss and told us to take good care of you.”
Shen Zhiyi was filled with anxiety.
The phone rang.
Shen Zhiyi glanced at her phone. "Oh no! It's a call from HR!"
"Am I really going to get fired?!"
She answered nervously.
"Hello?"
"What?! I got promoted?!"
She and her roommate looked at each other in bewilderment.
"What?!" Shen Zhiyi excitedly gripped the blanket. "Okay! Thank you, sister! I'll report to the company tomorrow!"
She hung up the phone.
"How is it?" Liang Zaixiao and Su Mian were also very nervous.
Shen Zhiyi took a deep breath, "Double my official salary, plus a housing allowance! I've even found a place for myself!"
"Waaaaaah!" The three of them huddled together and screamed softly.
