Lu Chengzhou had an attractive voice and Gu Mang knew that very well. She could feel her ear burn up when his lips brushed against her ear and his alluring voice rendered her scalp somewhat numb. In her peripheral vision she saw a faint outline with smooth lines under the dim lights. Her throat bobbed as she answered him, expressionless, “I don’t have money.”
The man clucked and, in an licentious tone, asked, “So you want to be s*xually assaulted by me, miss?”
She cocked an eyebrow at that. “I gave my virginity to someone else.”
“Oh…” The man drawled, then put on a serious face to ask, “To whom?”
He’s gotten addicted to roleplaying, huh? She narrowed her eyes but did not struggle against his grip. Instead, she leaned against the wall and tilted her head, closing the distance between them. The tip of her nose brushed against Lu Chengzhou’s cheek, subtly tickling him and sparking tingling sensations within him. His grip on her tightened slightly, which received a smirk from her. Her voice rang softly in his ear. “He said that he’s not quite a human.”
The way she spoke so slowly sounded so amorous that it nearly drove Lu Chengzhou crazy. His jaw became slightly tense as well. He was silent for a few seconds before lifting a hand to her chin to lift it.
Gu Mang could not help but curl her fingers at the heat from his fingers. She did not evade his touch and instead looked up and held his gaze. Her pretty eyes were slightly curved as they shone with amusement.
Lu Chengzhou dropped his gaze. With his eyelids hooded, she could not read the emotions in his deep eyes. His fingers slowly rubbed her delicate chin. “Then do you remember him saying that he wouldn’t ever be human again?”
Speechless, she thought to herself, Fine, I lost.
“What’s up?” Feeling ticklish, she pulled his hand away and hooked a finger around his finger.
“Well…” His head bobbed as he answered her earnestly, “My girlfriend wants to experience a clandestine love affair, so I have to fulfill her wish. Is this place exciting enough?”
He’s probably taking revenge on me for the times I abruptly changed topics and went to sleep instead of following through after teasing him relentlessly. Her grin widened as she looked at him and taunted, “Is that all you’ve got? You’re… more innocent than I thought.”
Lu Chengzhou, who had expected his betrothed to give him the excuse that she was sleepy as usual, was surprised to hear her answer. His eyes darkened when he snapped back to reality. He studied her expression for a good while before breaking into a laugh. “Looks like I’m not doing it well enough.”
Gu Mang did not answer him. She raised an eyebrow at him.
Pointing to the grove that was not far away from them with his chin, he leaned in, glanced in that direction, and whispered, “Would it be more exciting if we entered the woods?”
Gu Mang could no longer laugh at that point. Looking at her fiancé with clear eyes, she spat, “Don’t be such a beast.”
Lu Chengzhou had a hand around her nape. He could not help but chortle when he heard what she said. Between throaty laughs, he retorted, “How am I being a beast? Didn’t you even ask me which part of your body was soft? Hm?” When she did not respond, he added, “Oh, and which part of your body is comfortable.”
Seeing how she had gone silent, his smile became even wider as he helped jog her memory. “What comes around goes around.”
“Lu Chengzhou.” Gu Mang calmly called his name.
“Hm?”
The next second, her hands flew up but his reaction was equally quick. He swiftly grabbed hold of her wrists and pulled them apart. When Gu Mang could not break free of his hold, she did not hesitate to kick her leg up. His long legs, however, immediately pressed against hers, replaced by his body, effectively trapping her in his embrace. The temperature rose as the two were brought together.
“That’s cruel of you. I also belong to you, yet you attack me?” he said with a laugh.
