"Compensation, heh." The man laughed as he forced her legs apart with his and enveloped her with his body.
"What if I say that you're the only compensation I need…? Will you pack yourself into a gift for my tasting?"
"Mister… please be more serious." Tang Xinluo's face turned crimson. The intimacy and proximity made it hard to breathe for her.
Lu Yuchen laughed. "Seeing you as you are now… I think any man would find it hard to stay serious."
"Mister, what are you up to?!" She was angry, and she glared at him with puffy cheeks.
Little did she know that her actions only made her more attractive to the man.
Lu Yuchen's mood was lightened by her angry manner. He suddenly bent down and picked her up with his arms.
"What are you doing…? Put me down." She was shocked and about to struggle when Lu Yuchen set her down.
The only problem was that he put her in a bathtub full of water.
The warm water soaked her blouse, and a dark look flashed across the man's dark eyes.
Tang Xinluo wanted to get out, but a big hand pressed her back into the tub.
"You… st-stop…" She pushed his hand aside and glared. "What are you trying to do?! Can't you just give me a clean-cut answer?!"
The man finally paused when he saw the anger in the woman's eyes.
"I've told you… the only compensation I want is you." He looked in her eyes, his eyes exuding a rare instance of focus. "As for now, I'm just helping you wash up."
Tang Xinluo slapped her large hand away with her crimson face. "I… I can do it myself."
"Also, since you know who I am, then you should know my marital status. We can't continue this kind of relationship. The person kicking a fuss outside earlier is my mother-in-law…"
The man sealed her lips with his before she could finish.
His kisses assaulted her sense, and her brain felt heavy from the lack of oxygen.
He only moved away when her lips were slightly red.
His eyes darkened as he looked at the woman in the water. "I don't care who you are; I just want you."
She could not see the expression on the man's face, but she could tell that he was not kidding.
However, so what if he was serious? She did not have any intention of continuing such a relationship with this man.
"But you need to know that I'm married."
A cold smile appeared on the man's face when he heard her words. "Then, just get divorced."
…
Lu Yuchen's words from earlier were still on Tang Xinluo's mind when Meng Ze politely sent her home.
He said: "Just get divorced."
He said: "Just be my wife, and I'll make sure no one can bully you."
He said that he could get back everything that she had lost.
