"Sss——"
After a night of drunkenness, Luo Baiyin fiercely slapped her forehead as she sat up from the bed, with a continuous buzzing still resounding in her head.
Struck with confusion, she fumbled out of bed and heard the sound of rushing water coming from the bathroom.
She could feel her heart leap into her throat! Memories of last night's chaos were continuously flooding into her mind.
“Stop messing around, our Baiyin will get angry.” Sitting on the couch, Ling Yunkai, who still had a cup in his hand, looked at the crowd uneasily.
"Luo Baiyin, why are you so stingy? We're just playing 'Truth or Dare.' You just let your cousin hug your boyfriend, that's all. Is it really necessary?"
"That's right, you and Ling Yunkai are about to get engaged, and Liu Siyan is a guy after all, what are you worried about?”
“That… That’s correct!” Luo Baiyin, feeling dizzy, was pushed by the group and stumbled twice, she approached Ling Yunkai’s side, saying, “There is nothing to be angry about, you hug him!”
“Stop it.” Ling Yunkai, looking flustered, pushed away the approaching Liu Siyan.
However, the equally drunk Liu Siyan, with a disgruntled look, pulled Ling Yunkai's neck, then he hung his legs on Yunkai's waist, bit his lip in a practiced and natural motion, saying, “It's not like we haven't done this before. What are you shy about?"
Next, he started to unbutton Yunkai's shirt, not giving anyone a chance to react, he said ambiguously and coquettishly, “Tonight, I want to be on top of you..."
Holy shit, something just went wrong!
What's going on? A live coming-out scene?
Not just Luo Baiyin, everyone at the scene had sobered up a lot. Immediately, someone reached out to pull Liu Siyan: "That's too much, lad. There’s such a thing as too much jesting, you've gone too far."
Ling Yunkai also pushed, and Liu Siyan, face flushed, asked in a coquettish and drunken way: “What are you afraid of? Baiyin doesn't even know.”
"Siyan, you've had too much to drink." Seeing this, Ling Yun Kai awkwardly tries to make light of the situation.
"Even if I've drunk too much, I still remember what you told me. Bai Ying thought you were a responsible man and didn't sleep with her. After you two get married, you can simply deal with her casually, hanging out with me every day and she won't suspect anything."
Okay, this has completely gone south.
Luo Bai Ying woke up from her drunken stupor in mere moments. She coldly laughed twice and all the fruit bowls on the table were smashed onto the amorous couple. Without looking back, she walked out of the room.
Just about to get engaged, she had found out about the affair between her childhood friend and her fiancé. A normal woman would have already gone crazy, let alone being cheated on by a man!
She, Luo Bai Ying, was a real winner in life!
But...
Her dark star-like eyes were staring intently at the closed bathroom door. She knocked her forehead with her clenched fist, unable to recall what had happened next.
In theory, she should have directly called for a ride home. Why would there be someone in the bathroom of the home where she had been living alone since she was sixteen?
Terrifying, too terrifying.
Tiptoeing to the bathroom door and just as she was about to press her ear against the door to listen to the inside... the bathroom door suddenly opened!
Before she could react, Luo Bai Ying lost her balance and fell in.
The man inside frowned at seeing her, sidestepped, and avoided her, coldly watching as she fell heavily to the floor!
It hurt!
"Don't you know to help me?" Luo Bai Ying's shoulder was numbed from the impact, she frowned and looked up.
Upon first sight, she was struck by the sight of a man's long, muscular legs. His broad shoulders transitioned into a lean waist, and water droplets trailed down his chest, rolling into an undone towel wrapped around his waist. And from Luo Baiying's perspective, she could see right through the loose hem of his towel, making her heart race with excitement!
Despite the dim lighting that only allowed her to see vague outlines, seeing such a scene at such close proximity made Luo Baiying's face flush.
The man's long eyes slightly squinted, his face emotionless. His voice was faint, but it held an indescribable pressure: "Seen enough?"
"Just a piece of meat. Even if you stripped naked, I wouldn't look!" Luo Baiying's little face instantly reddened to her ears as she quickly scrambled up from the ground, unsure of where to look.
Heaven, will she get a stye for seeing something she should not have seen?
What was worse, at such a blurry glimpse, she actually thought it was quite big...
"Is that so?" The man scoffed coolly, his step which had initially moved out of the room, returned. His pace was slow, like a lone wolf slowly approaching its prey.
His chilly fingers lifted Luo Baiying's delicate chin, not too harshly, yet she couldn't easily shake free.
His frosty gaze met hers quietly, his thin lips opened: "You weren't saying that last night."
"What do you mean?" Luo Baiying's eyes widened, "What did I say last night?"
While speaking, her heart gave a jolt, and she quickly covered her chest fearfully, "What did we do last night? You...you actually took advantage of me when I was drunk..."
"Hush——"
Before she finished her sentence, the man's handsome face was looming closer, the distance between them ambiguous. She could even feel his breath gently brushing on her face.
The sweet smell from his shower lingered at the tip of her nose, his other hand naturally encased her waist.
The delicate girl in his arms flutters her long eyelashes, her cheeks a deep blush, her eyes filled with confusion and disarray. It was an unfamiliar feeling in his usually aloof heart, yet an inexplicable urge to tease her surfaced.
His voice was low and resonant, like a fine wine that gradually unleashed allure with each articulate word he pronounced in her ear.
"If you've forgotten, it's fine for us to repeat it because when it comes to love, I've always been one to act rather than spout words."
Holy crap, after losing both love and friendship, had she unwittingly lost Mr. V too?
Rubbing her petite waist subconsciously, she felt surprisingly invigorated, apart from a slight headache from an apparent hangover, nothing seemed out of place. As she realized this, a cold shiver ran down her spine. "I didn't expect a handsome guy like you to be... insufficient down there."
In the realm of rumors, symptoms about waist soreness and feeling like being run over by a truck, she evidently didn't experience a bit.
Even though it was her first time, she didn't feel a pinch of pain, the man right before her is the epitome of "all bark and no bite".
Caught off guard by Luo Baiying's unexpected remarks, Shen Mo's hand flinched slightly. Seizing this opportunity, Luo Baiying thrust him aside, swiftly stepped back to create some distance, grabbing a hanging showerhead nearby and sprayed the water straight at Shen Mo.
Seeing the man retreat shifted her focus to escape with agility through the bathroom door, grabbed her purse from the sofa, and pulled out two hundred yuan notes.
Swirling the notes in the air, Luo Baiying lightly lifted an eyebrow, "We're all adults here, it was just a one-night stand. Let's part on good terms, consider this as hush money from me. It'd be great if you could pretend you never met me when you see me next time."
