The cold night cloaked the imperial capital.
It was all glitz and glamour, brimming with red lanterns and green wines.
Bleary-eyed and slightly tipsy, Du Wushuang staggered and knocked on the door of a presidential suite at the top floor of Emperor's Pride Hotel. The door bore a bold number '08'.
The door was opened by a man. Upon seeing the door open, Du Wushuang pounced on the man, pushing him to the ground. She was disoriented, gripping his collar and tugging his tie.
A whiff of sweet fragrance filled his senses. Xiao Jincheng didn't show any emotion, his obsidian-like deep eyes dimmed a bit, and his body started to react slightly.
Damn it! Where did this woman spring from?
She had her seaweed-like brown curly hair tousled all over. Her cheeks were flushed, with half-closed eyes, she looked up and giggled at the man.
"Xiao Xiao…"
"Xiao Xiao… why have you forgotten me... why don't you remember me…"
"Tell me… why don't you remember me…"
Du Wushuang's voice gradually choked. She lowered her head and nuzzled against Xiao Jincheng's chest. Tears rolled down along his neck, leaving the always composed CEO slightly startled.
"You said… You said you would only love me in this life…"
Xiao Jincheng raised an eyebrow, with a smirk on his face.
"I would never say 'I love you' to a woman. If I ever did, it would be only in bed."
Du Wushuang looked at him, a befuddled expression on her face. The room was dimly lit. The only source of light was the moonlight streaming through the rooftop skylight, casting a faint glow on the woman's delicate and fair skin.
Her cherry lips were slightly parted, and her amber eyes radiated undulating layers of endearing light. Her seaweed-like brown hair draped behind her, and her facial features were delicate, like a small, adorable doll.
A student?
Xiao Jinchen's heartstrings moved slightly after years of silence, and a curious smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
A kitten-like student... sent again by Secretary Lin? He had not expected to be interested in this little kitten, after having met so many women.
Her cute and polite appearance stirred a strange, familiar feeling within him.
Du Wushuang's cherry lips slightly parted as she placed her hands on the muscular chest of the man. She looked naive and confused, like a homeless little kitten.
"Xiao Xiao..."
Xiao Jinchen's heart moved. In a swift turn, he pinned Du Wushuang beneath him on the sheepskin rug, imprisoning her hands above her head, and buried his face to kiss her tender, sweet cherry lips.
"Mmm... Xiao..."
Her lips were as soft as she was. Xiao Jinchen couldn't resist the more he tasted. Just like a man in the desert who suddenly finds a sweet spring, he held Du Wushuang tightly, deepening the kiss again and again.
Du Wushuang's breathing became rapid, gradually growing faint with suffocation. She pounded on the man's chest to push him away.
Xiao Jinchen gently released Du Wushuang and looked at her blushing face, a slight smile painted his lips.
"You little girl, you don't even know how to kiss."
Du Wushuang coughed a few times and again wrapped her arms around Xiao Jinchen's neck.
She buried her head in his shoulder, her gaze blurred as if drunk, her breath smelling sweet as orchids.
"Xiao Xiao... I like you... do you like me?"
Xiao Jincheng's eyes darkened a bit and he picked her up by the buttocks from the ground, whispering in her ear.
"I don't like you, but I will 'love' you vehemently."
Du Wushuang seemed a little confused, allowing the man to put her on the bed in a daze and feeling somehow restrained in her limbs. One by one, her clothes were stripped off, which sent a chill running down her spine.
The unfamiliar feeling made her body shiver uncontrollably.
"Your first time? Hmm?"
Du Wushuang unconsciously hummed.
"It will hurt a bit... you need to bear with it."
The man's voice was low and slightly hoarse, sexy, and very pleasant to the ear, causing Du Wushuang to be somewhat puzzled.
Du Wushuang clung to him tightly and unconsciously whimpered a few times.
Her voice was soft and weak, which made Xiao Jincheng falter.
"Xuen Ran..."
"Xuen Ran..."
...
