  Xia Yanran blinked, thinking that something was wrong with her vision.

  She closed the door with a loud slam.

  Leaning back against the door, she stood there taking a few deep breaths.

  What did she just see?

  Xiao Yi was leaning in the corner, several cigarette butts scattered on the floor. He was looking slightly up, seemingly zoning out. He did not even look at her when she opened the door, like he was completely out of it, with a lighted cigarette still dangling between his fingers.

  Xia Yanran had never thought that she would meet Xiao Yi here.

  Besides, it was one in the morning.

  What on earth was he doing here?

  There were so many cigarette butts on the floor, so he must have been here for a while.

  She felt extremely complicated and her heart palpitated.

  Why did Xiao Yi come all the way here in the middle of the night?

  Wait, how did he even know that she stayed here?

  However, at that thought, it was not hard for him to find out where she was staying, since he was following Second Master Qin in Hong Kong and still had quite a bit of power.

  As she leaned against the door for a while, her mind was a complete mess, not knowing if she should go throw the rubbish or to bring the rubbish back to her apartment.

  But then, bringing her rubbish back to her apartment would be avoiding the problem. It wasn’t like she was afraid of seeing him.

  This was where she stayed, it wasn’t his territory. So, why should she hide?

  Taking a deep breath in, Xia Yanran pushed the door open once more and walked in front of the rubbish bin.

  After throwing the rubbish, Xia Yanran was about to turn around and leave. The man who was staring at the ceiling seemed to have felt something, as he suddenly looked towards her.

  Xia Yanran immediately froze on the spot.

  Her legs seemed to have been filled with lead, making her unable to move for a moment.

  His eyes were calm yet sharp. Her scalp started to turn numb, as she did not know what to do.

  Goddammit. If only she had chosen to bring her rubbish back to her apartment earlier, she would not have been in such an awkward position now.

  The two of them stared at each other for nearly ten seconds, when the loud slam of the door closing suddenly disrupted the silence.

  Xia Yanran regained her senses.

  She looked away, not even asking the man why he appeared here in the middle of the night as she hurriedly turned around, pushing the door open and walked towards her apartment.

  There were no footsteps flowing behind her.

  A sigh of relief escaped from her lips.

  Her apartment door was closed by the wind, but it was fortunate her door was locked by a fingerprint lock.

  Xia Yanran opened the door, entering her apartment before she closed the door behind her.

  However, after pushing it a few times, she still was not able to close it.

  Turning back, she jumped at the man who was suddenly standing by the door and had a hand on the door.

  She took a few steps back immediately.

  Using that chance, the man pushed the door open.

  “What’s the matter? You want to run away after seeing me?” The man’s lazy voice rang, full of warning and somewhat accusingly, unlike the indifference he had when he spoke to her in the hotel lobby.

  His hand that was not holding on the cigarette instantly grabbed the back of her neck, the cool feeling made the goosebumps on her stand up.

  Xia Yanran pushed his hands away, running towards her room with large steps. However, the man chased after her like a predator hunting its prey. She knew that she would not be able to hide away from him, so when they arrived at the living room, she turned around to face him.

  Meeting his dark and dangerous eyes, Xia Yanran’s expression was slightly calm. “Mr Xiao, is there a reason you’re looking for me so late at night?”


  Women were really fickle.

  The distant and cold expression she had now was completely different from the way she panted as he chased after her.

  Only a dim orange wall light was switched on in the living room, making the man’s face look dark and well-defined. He was still wearing what he wore when he ate at the restaurant, a black shirt and black suit pants, the black leather shoes gleaming free from dust.

  He was exuding an extremely desolate aura, dangerous eyes fixated on her.

  It was as if she had owed him millions of dollars.

  He did not speak either, taking in a breath of the cigarette before he exhaled a mouthful of smoke in her face. His eyes were glinting in the darkness, similar to that of a wild beast.

  Xia Yanran choked on the smoke, coughing a few times as she waved her hand around to make the smoke dissipate.

  She originally did not want to feel anything towards him anymore, but his devilish behavior angered her almost immediately.

  “Mr Xiao, this is my home. You don’t have the right to come in, get out……” She moved to push him out, but he avoided her, making her stumble a few steps forward. Her knee hit the coffee table, and a sharp pain made her hiss.

  Suppressing the pain as much as she could, she turned around and glowered at the devilish man who looked better under the white smoke. “Xiao Yi, what do you want?”


  The man put out the cigarette before he threw it into the rubbish bin. He walked closer towards her, only a single word leaving his mouth. “You.”


  Xia Yanran froze for a few seconds before she realized what he meant.

  She was so angry she was trembling all over.

  Before she could say anything, the man suddenly grabbed her arm and threw her onto the sofa as though she were a rag doll.

  Although the sofa was soft, Xia Yanran still felt slightly dizzy from being thrown.

  After all, the alcohol was still lingering in her body.

  “Xiao Yi!” She wanted to get up from the sofa, but the man’s tall figure leaned over her domineeringly.

  One of his legs pressed over her knee, his strength so strong he was like a bull, and she could not move at all.

  Xia Yanran tried to move for a while, but was not able to get out of his hold.

  He did not speak, merely staring at her. Grabbing her knees, he suddenly parted her slender legs.

  She was wearing a nightgown that only reached her thighs. She was staying alone, so she could wear whatever she wanted to, which was why she was only wearing a black lacy, low-waisted underwear.

  Wanting to close her legs instinctively, her face was turning red and pale from anger.

  However, in the next second, he pushed a leg in between her legs. He was half kneeling on the sofa, and she could not close her legs no matter what.

  Screaming in anger, she cursed him as she reached a hand out to scratch his face like an angry cat. However, she had not touched his face when he grabbed her hand easily.

  Even in the past, she had never been able to struggle against him, let alone now. All she could do was to silently bear it whenever he wanted to do something to her.

  However, she already had no relation to him now, yet he still came over in the middle of the night and acted crazy. Why was he such an a**hole?

  Seeing her flushed face and her burning eyes, the man that was holding her down chuckled coldly. “Isn’t this what you wanted?”


  Xia Yanran froze for a second, her mind going blank before she shouted angrily, “What do you mean?”


  “Ever since you saw me in Elder Dong’s house, didn’t you want to seduce me?” His slender fingers grabbed her chin, a smirk on his handsome face. “Didn’t you want me to say some nice things for Nan Zhi and you in front of Elder Dong?”


  Xia Yanran froze.

  She did not think he would be able to tell. Indeed, she did have that idea, but she never thought that she had to use such a way to beg him!

  “Didn’t you want me to be caught in your trap when you danced so promiscuously in my bar?”
