Chapter 12 : Indescribable Feeling

  • Ling Xuan couldn't help but find it amusing to see Lu Mianxin like this.
  • He had initially thought that she could handle her alcohol well, which was why she dared to drink so much. But now it seemed like she couldn't handle alcohol at all.
  • His gaze fell on her flushed face.
  • Her face was particularly small, probably not even the size of his palm.
  • Big eyes, curled eyelashes, a straight nose, and rosy lips like a baby's.
  • His Adam's apple bobbed up and down, his expression gradually darkening.
  • He couldn't remember the last time he had felt this kind of impulse towards a woman. Perhaps this woman was different for him.
  • Imperial Court International Entertainment Club.
  • In the presidential suite on the top floor, Qiao Yechen was wearing a white bathrobe, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, standing on the open balcony, enjoying the breeze.
  • Just then, the phone on the crystal table rang.
  • Qiao Yechen turned around and glanced at the caller ID. He walked over and picked up the phone.
  • He pressed the answer button and then sat down on the nearby sofa, casually placing the wine glass on the coffee table.
  • The voice of his assistant came from the other end of the phone, "Young Master Qiao, Ling Shao took Miss Lu back to his villa and hasn't come out since."
  • Qiao Yechen's eyes darkened slightly, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart. "I see."
  • After hanging up the phone, he looked at the distant lights, his expression gradually dimming.
  • The next morning, early dawn.
  • The chirping of birds came through the window.
  • The morning sunlight was very bright, shining on the carpet in front of the window.
  • Lu Mianxin slowly opened her eyes, feeling a splitting headache.
  • She rubbed her forehead, feeling like her head was about to explode.
  • When she fully regained her consciousness, she realized that everything around her was so unfamiliar.
  • Where was she?
  • As soon as she realized it, she immediately sat up from the bed like a spring.
  • Every corner of the room was filled with luxury.
  • There was a frosted glass door at the entrance, and the sound of rushing water could be heard from inside, as if someone was taking a shower.
  • She felt like her breathing was about to stop, breathing cautiously, afraid that any sound would be heard by the person inside.
  • She instinctively lifted the blanket and looked at the clothes on her body.
  • Seeing that she was fully dressed, she breathed a sigh of relief.
  • It seemed that nothing had happened last night.
  • She carefully recalled what had happened last night.
  • Ling Xuan took her out of Imperial Court, then they came to his house and drank together. After that, she had no recollection.
  • So she should be at Ling Xuan's house now?
  • It was really hard to imagine that he hadn't done anything to her last night.
  • He had spent so much money to keep her for the night, but she got drunk before even having a few sips of alcohol. If he hadn't done anything, it would be a big loss for him.
  • While she was lost in thought, the bathroom door suddenly opened.
  • Ling Xuan walked out of the bathroom, wearing only a white towel around his waist.
  • His hair was still dripping wet, and he held a gray towel in his other hand, drying his hair.
  • He looked at Lu Mianxin sitting on the bed in a daze and a faint smile appeared on his lips. "Awake?"
  • When Lu Mianxin saw Ling Xuan wearing only a towel, she immediately felt embarrassed and averted her gaze.
  • Her pretty face turned red, and she had never seen a man dressed so scantily in real life.
  • Although she had seen some TV dramas or male celebrities dressed like this on television,
  • it was different from seeing it with her own eyes, especially since there were only the two of them in the room. Who knew what might happen? So she felt particularly nervous.
  • "I'm sorry, I got drunk last night..."
  • "It's okay. If I had known you couldn't handle alcohol, I would have given you juice instead."
  • Lu Mianxin got out of bed and said, "Well... if there's nothing else, I'll leave."
  • Ling Xuan didn't force her and nodded. "I'll have the driver take you back!"
  • Although Lu Mianxin wanted to refuse, she had no money now and it would be difficult for her to go back. In the end, she could only nod and say, "Thank you for your trouble."
  • Ling Xuan's driver dropped Lu Mianxin off at the entrance of the dormitory.
  • The company's dormitory was located in a small neighborhood not far from Imperial Court.
  • The neighborhood wasn't new, and the company had several three-bedroom apartments there.
  • Several people lived in each dormitory.
  • Lu Mianxin shared a room with another girl.
  • She got off the car, feeling a headache. She couldn't believe how terrible she felt after getting drunk.
  • She had spent the whole night with Ling Xuan, and the man seemed different from the clients she had imagined. She thought all the clients at Imperial Court would be greasy men who wouldn't stop until they got something in return.
  • But Ling Xuan turned out to be quite a gentleman. Perhaps he wasn't interested in a drunkard like her, which was why he let her go?
  • She walked forward, rubbing her head, completely unaware that there was a pair of cold eyes watching her from a nearby sports car.
  • Lost in her thoughts, her wrist suddenly tightened as she was forcefully pulled towards someone.
  • She screamed in fright, but when she stood firm and saw the person in front of her, her heart sank instantly.
  • The man in front of her had a cold and stern face, still as dazzling as ever. He stood tall and imposing, his shadow enveloping her.
  • Lu Mianxin felt a sharp pain in her heart. Now that she saw this man again, all she wanted to do was run away.
  • She took a few steps back, as if trying to escape from the devil in front of her.
  • If it weren't for him, she wouldn't be in such a terrible situation.
  • If it weren't for him, she would be enjoying her summer vacation like other high school graduates, preparing to enter her dream university.
  • But this beautiful summer vacation had been ruined by him.
  • This man was truly cruel, nothing like the person she used to like.
  • How could a person change so much? Why did he go from someone who was willing to help and protect her to someone so cruel and cold?
  • Qiao Yechen had been waiting here since before dawn, and he didn't know why he had to do this.
  • Every time he thought about Lu Mianxin being intimate with other men, he couldn't sleep at night.
  • He had almost stayed up the whole night.
  • He had thought that this kind of revenge would make him feel satisfied, but he didn't expect it to be so torturous for him.
  • He looked at her with eyes devoid of warmth and spoke in a voice that seemed to come from ice, "Did you sleep with him?"
  • Lu Mianxin felt like her heart had been stabbed when she heard his words.
  • She laughed mockingly, "So what if I did? Isn't this the result you wanted? You wanted to see me being used by others, right? I never thought that one day you would hate me so much. I never imagined that one day you would treat me like this. I was really blind to fall in love with you back then. You destroyed everything for me. I hate you, and I will never forgive you in this lifetime."
  • Qiao Yechen felt his throat dry, as if any sound would cause him excruciating pain.
  • "I don't care if you hate me or not."
  • "Yes, you don't care. After all, you only care about one person. You were willing to drag me down to help her seek revenge. Qiao Yechen, you've achieved your goal. What else do you want to do to make me leave Imperial Court? Do you want to trap me here for the rest of my life and let me be slept with by hundreds of men?"
