Qingyun Villa District
With steady steps, Lu Yuzhi carefully carried Li Peiyu, who was fast asleep in his arms, back into the house, and gently placed her on the soft bed.
Li Peiyu's cheeks, flushed from intoxication, resembled ripe apples, appearing particularly tempting under the lights.
Lu Yuzhi stood quietly by the bed, looking at her with a complicated expression. A surge of uncontrollable anger rose in his heart, mixed with a sense of frustration.
Her bright and beautiful face was truly unforgettable. Wherever she went, she was undoubtedly the center of attention.
She was so naive that she actually tried to do business with those beasts.
But did she ever consider that those people weren't eyeing how much profit she could bring in, but rather her alluring body?
Does she even care about her chastity?
Does she even care about his feelings?
Today, she had dinner with Chengzhou's boss.
That Mr. Cheng is worse than an animal.
The thought of Li Peiyu humbly toasting President Cheng filled Lu Yuzhi with rage.
He originally thought that as long as that Boss Cheng dared to lay a finger on Li Peiyu, he would rush in and give Boss Cheng a good beating.
He's ready to be tomorrow's headline.
I'm prepared to fall out with President Cheng.
Fortunately, because of Wang Boyang's father, President Cheng did not dare to force Li Peiyu.
Lu Yuzhi sat in the chair, feeling agitated, and didn't fall asleep until the early hours of the morning.
The next morning, Li Peiyu woke up and saw Lu Yuzhi sleeping in a chair, puzzled.
Why isn't he lying in bed?
Sleeping like this will make you very tired.
After much hesitation, Li Peiyu decided to wake Lu Yuzhi and have him go to bed.
"Lu Yuzhi, Lu Yuzhi," Li Peiyu called softly.
Lu Yuzhi slowly opened his eyes.
Go to bed.
Lu Yuzhi closed her eyes again, throwing a tantrum, "Where I sleep is none of your business."
Li Peiyu frowned, not understanding what she had done to offend him.
She had dinner with CEO Cheng Zhou last night and drank a bit too much. She remembered leaving the restaurant with Wang Boyang, but she couldn't recall how she ended up with Lu Yuzhi.
Did she do something to upset him while she was drunk?
Could it be because she asked him for the day off yesterday, Wednesday?
No matter how you offended them, apologize first.
Li Peiyu said softly, "I'm sorry."
Lu Yuzhi replied with an annoyance, "You apologized so readily, but then tell me what you did wrong?"
Li Peiyu's eyes flickered, and she stammered, "I... what did I do wrong? You tell me what I did wrong, and that's what I did wrong."
Lu Yu was furious and shouted, "Get out!" Then he got up and walked towards the bathroom to take a shower and change his clothes.
The sound of running water could be heard continuously in the bathroom.
Li Peiyu leaned against the bathroom door, and after a long while, she cautiously asked, "Is it because yesterday was Wednesday that I didn't come to see you?"
However, Lu Yu did not respond to her.
Li Peiyu continued to explain, "I had dinner with the CEO of Chengzhou Group yesterday, and I asked you for leave in advance."
Lu Yuzhi snorted coldly and questioned, "Did I grant you leave?"
With a click, the bathroom door opened, and Lu Yuzhi walked out with a bath towel wrapped around his waist.
Li Peiyu quickly replied, "I was busy with my career, it's not like I didn't come to keep you company on purpose."
Lu Yuzhi deftly slipped on his shirt, quickly buttoning it up while staring intently at Li Peiyu, and sternly reprimanded her: "Is your so-called career just escorting drinks?"
Li Peiyu retorted helplessly, "Drinking is a necessary part of it."
A flicker of pain and anger flashed in Lu Yuzhi's eyes as he said, "So you'd rather grovel before others than accept my help?"
He could easily give her opportunities with just a word.
Li Peiyu was speechless for a moment.
Lu Yuzhi became increasingly agitated and said loudly, "Do you know how I feel when other men are eyeing you covetously? Today it's President Cheng. Tomorrow it'll be President Zhao. You'll have to entertain every single one of the CEOs in S City. Have you considered how I feel? I can't take it."
Li Peiyu retorted, feeling wronged: "What do you mean by accompanying everyone one by one? What have you made me out to be? Besides, yesterday was the first time I had dinner with anyone."
"Accompany someone to dinner? Hmph, you accompany someone to dinner, do you think they think the same way? Do you think that just because you accompany someone to dinner, they will willingly do business with you?" Lu Yuzhi's tone was full of sarcasm.
"Fine, if he doesn't want to do it, so be it. It's his loss if he doesn't. Let him cry when Jiang Shuchen becomes famous." Li Peiyu stubbornly raised her chin and said defiantly.
"Let me help you." Lu Yuzhi took a step forward, looking at Li Peiyu with deep affection and a hint of pleading in his eyes.
"No, I don't want to rely on you." Li Peiyu turned her head away, her face stubborn.
"Naive. How capable do you think you are to make a name for yourself in the entertainment industry while remaining untainted by its corruption? Do you know you almost ended up in that Cheng guy's bed yesterday? What would I do if that had actually happened?" Lu Yuzhi's eyes widened in anger, veins bulging on his forehead, his hands clenched into tight fists. "I would kill him."
Upon hearing this, Li Peiyu was so shocked that he froze on the spot, and all the color drained from his face instantly.
She knew Lu Yuzhi wasn't bluffing.
If she were to lose her virginity, Lu Yuzhi might do something with unimaginable consequences.
"If I don't sleep with you, will I not succeed?" Li Peiyu's voice trembled slightly, and her eyes revealed a trace of confusion and despair.
"Yes." Lu Yuzhi's answer was decisive and without the slightest hesitation.
Having been in the business world for over a decade, Lu Yuzhi knew this best.
Li Peiyu lowered her head and said, "I will never attend any more social events, I will never have any more unrealistic dreams, I will never take shortcuts again. I will just be honest and proper and promote Jiang Shuchen's songs online."
As she spoke, Li Peiyu slowly walked up to Lu Yuzhi, wrapped her arms around his waist, gently rested her head on his chest, and whispered, "I won't go, don't worry. From now on, I'll only ask Wang Boyang to go for meals and drinks; I won't go at all."
Hearing Li Peiyu's assurance, Lu Yuzhi's tense face gradually relaxed, and the anger in his heart dissipated. He couldn't help but soften his heart.
He gently patted Li Peiyu's back and said softly, "Go change your clothes and have breakfast. I'll take you somewhere."
Li Peiyu looked up, her eyes filled with curiosity, and asked, "Where are we going?"
"The investor of that variety show 'I'm Here' is Qin Mingyue's cousin, Ji You, who likes archery. I'll take you to practice archery. You can stay at the archery range for the next few days and wait for him to come. Maybe you'll run into him."
Upon hearing this, a hint of joy flashed across Li Peiyu's face, but then she frowned and asked, "Aren't you afraid he'll try to sleep with me?"
