The aftereffects of the vintage red wine were fierce and strong. Ye Xian got up holding her wine glass, staggered, and fell onto the quilt along with the wine.
The wine stained the duvet red, and though her body was drunk to the point of being a puddle of mud, her mind was exceptionally clear. She sharply recalled the fragmented pieces from long, long ago...
A group of people was playing games in the audiovisual room; they were all familiar faces to her: Shangguan Yunli, the captain, Jiang Wanze, Cary, Luo Yuwei, Xiao Lu, and the man sitting opposite her... the CEO.
She vaguely sensed that she might have been drunk, afraid her true self would be discovered. Yet looking at the man with the handsome, distinguished face, whose eyes were full of her, she inexplicably felt at ease. A voice from the depths of her heart told her that no matter how much trouble she caused, he would tolerate and protect her.
During the card game, she caught an opportunity to punish him, happily asking, "If I win, will you call me daddy?"
Actually, she wasn’t seeking revenge on him, she just wanted to see him smile. He looked much better smiling than with a stern face, and he seemed much happier that way.
She hoped he could always smile.
Amidst the laughter and playful chaos, she unknowingly ended up sitting on his back.
His waist muscles were sturdy and solid, with a perfect physique that surpassed all the men she had seen before. So when she sat on him, her face flushed red instantly, and her heartbeat accelerated with his speed, so fast it felt as if it would jump out of her chest...
Somehow, she got lost again, wandering in an unfamiliar courtyard until she saw a ’well.’ It was dark and deep, startling her. As she was about to pull back, a strong force pushed her down, and she fell right in.
Intense pain radiated from her ankle before she could even clutch it. She was stunned by the pitch-black darkness, unable to see her own hand.
She had experienced similar scenes in the darkest days of her life, where it was pitch-black, eerie, with no one around, only darkness, fierce enough to devour people.
Clutching her knees tightly, an immense sense of grievance overcame her, nearly making her cry. But just then, a beacon of light shone in. Behind the dazzling light stood that upright, impressive figure, like a god descending from the heavens: the CEO, the Werewolf.
He jumped down and embraced her tightly, kissed her forehead, consoled her. Finally, she couldn’t hold back and cried aloud, feeling as though the whole world had abandoned her, with only one person cherishing her like a treasured heart.
She burrowed into his embrace, wanting nothing more than to stay like this forever and ever. His embrace was just too warm, too safe.
He carried her into a room, but inside was a naked woman lying on the bed. Startled, she quickly covered his eyes... her heart was in turmoil, not wanting him to see another woman’s body for fear that he might be tempted away, abandoning her.
But he angrily drove the woman away, held her on the sofa, massaging her foot and solemnly telling her: only she had the right to intrude into his domain, and only she would be accommodated.
She was overjoyed; the favored feeling made her so happy she could almost float.
She remembered them happily eating strawberries, watching stars, chatting that night...
For a long time, she hadn’t felt so relaxed and happy being with someone. Even thinking of the very sad, very sad things from long ago seemed not so painful anymore.
She remembered how in the end, he looked at her with burning eyes, brighter than the stars in the sky, and then unable to restrain himself, he leaned over and took her breath away. As she was about to suffocate, she heard him murmur hoarsely by her ear: Xianxian, I like you, like you so much, so much...
She really wanted to respond with: Me too.
"Xianxian~ Xianxian~"
A gentle and soothing voice reached her mind, increasingly clear, making her unable to distinguish whether it was reality or a dream.
Ye Xian frowned tightly, responding to the call with a "CEO~"
