His face was unnaturally red as he rubbed his forehead.
Originally fuming, Zhuang Shuqing suddenly felt her anger dissipate. Her eyes flickered slightly as she hugged the blanket and said nothing.
"I will take responsibility," he said first, seeing her silence.
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Shuqing smiled faintly, "Take responsibility? How do you plan to do that?"
The man looked up at her with a stern look in his eyes. How to take responsibility? Was he supposed to marry her?
Clearly, with his status, it was impossible for him to just marry any woman.
A lover? He didn't need one.
But he wasn't the type of man who shirks responsibility, so he repeated his earlier statement: "I will take responsibility for you."
This time, Zhuang Shuqing genuinely laughed and said, "Sir, if I remember correctly, it was I on top and you below. So, it was me who slept with you!"
The man didn't say a word, staring at her face for a long while. "So what?" he asked.
Zhuang Shuqing reached down to pick up a bag from the floor, pulling out two Mao Zedongs and placing them on the bedside table, "If we did the whole set, I might consider giving you more. But with your skills just now, that's all it's worth."
In the dim light, the man's complexion grew darker, but Zhuang Shuqing did not see those pitch-black eyes hastily flash a hint of unclear mockery, "Then let's do the full set..."
With that, he made a move to press down on Zhuang Shuqing.
"STOP!!!!" Zhuang Shuqing extended her hand to stop him from advancing, but he refused to give up, slowly increasing his strength, she angrily said, "With those skills, you want me to be your test subject?"
The man was momentarily stunned, and she patted him, "Alright, turn around, I need to get dressed."
Upon hearing this, the man deepened his obsidian-like eyes and looked at her before actually getting up and walking into the bathroom, completely unconcerned that he wasn't wearing a single piece of clothing.
Zhuang Shuqing quickly turned her head away, this man...
As soon as the bathroom door closed, Zhuang Shuqing immediately got out of bed, only to wince in pain with every movement, feeling as if a herd of alpacas were stampeding through her mind...
She quickly dressed in her dirty clothes from the bag and took her belongings without pausing to open and then close the door. She leaned against the wall, gasping for air, damn it hurts!
"Who are you? How did you come out from here?"
Zhuang Shuqing turned at the sound, raising an eyebrow, "Tan Biyang?"
"You know me?" Tan Biyang was somewhat surprised and then realized quickly. It's quite normal for people to recognize her from the films she's worked on. Seeing that someone recognized her, her first reaction wasn't to flee, but to look at Zhuang Shuqing with extreme jealousy.
The story started at the banquet where she and her assistant planned to cling to powerful figures, thus targeting tonight's main character Lu Jinyang. Her assistant successfully drugged Lu Jinyang's drink and obtained his room key.
What should have been a foolproof plan, however, went awry when her assistant got the room number wrong, resulting in a waste of so much time trying to open the door.
She knew Lu Jinyang was in this room because she overheard the conversation of Leng Yixing and his group, realizing she missed such a golden opportunity and also feeling extremely jealous of the woman who entered the room.
After Leng Yixing and his group left, she decided to stay and find out who this woman was, perhaps even make some deal with her.
"Hehe~ you're joking, I grew up watching your TV dramas."
Upon hearing this, Tan Biyang first nodded gently, then suddenly became furiously embarrassed, "What are you talking about!"
