Chapter 6

She was about to get married in a month, but a spanner was thrown in the works now!

The words “stepped out” instantly engulfed her mind, and she was dumbstruck!

The man’s deep eyes flashed and his thin lips curled up slightly. He walked out of the bathroom indifferently with only a towel wrapped around his muscular waist.

He took a step forward and walked leisurely to the round table at the side. His slender fingers pushed gently—with a bang—and he deftly pulled out the cork of a bottle of red wine. The crimson red wine dribbled like blood into the tall glass beside him as a rich and sweet fragrance instantly filled the air.

His well-defined hand held the wine glass elegantly. His body turned nimbly before he languidly sat back on the couch with his legs crossed comfortably. His lanky figure… strong muscles… sun-kissed skin coupled with his prepossessingly handsome face and wine-stained thin, soft lips… made him look even more charming.

She was utterly confused and disconcerted. Too many uncomfortable thoughts were crowding in on her. She suddenly thought of something and quickly scooped up the blanket that had slipped off. She tried her best to cover her naked body, revealing only her big eyes brimmed with surprise, anger, and a trace of… guilt and uneasiness.

Seeing her desperately pulling the blanket over her body, the man smirked and said languidly, “Don’t you think it’s too late to cover it up now? Besides…”

His almond-shaped eyes were teeming with mockery and teasing. “Which part of your body haven’t I seen, touched, or kissed?”

“You… I…” Ji Liunian crumbled under his gaze and subconsciously shrunk back as she wrapped the blanket tightly. After a long time, she finally managed to utter some words. “Last night, did we really…”

The man swirled the wine glass gently and curled his lips slightly. He elegantly took a sip of red wine and his voice seemed to be drenched in red wine, revealing a charming intoxication. “I’m a red-blooded man.”

Then, his angelic eyes scanned her trembling body—wrapped in the blanket—like a radar. “And you… you’re not an ugly woman whom I can’t stand the sight of.”

She was about to go bonkers!

“W-What do you mean?”

“Exactly what I meant.” The man smiled, his gaze deepening. “What happened between two consenting adults. Besides, you came to me yourself.”

The man’s tone was casual, as if he was casually saying, “It’s a fine day today.”

However, his words shattered all of Ji Liunian’s fantasies!

What should have happened… What should not have happened.. had all happened!

But, last night was her first time!

After getting engaged to Yu Yichen, he did not even spare a glance at her. Furthermore, he carried on with his philandering ways and showed no restraint at all.

However, the Yu family was a wealthy family after all. If they found out that she—the prospective daughter-in-law of the Yu family—had such intimate relations with another man a month before her marriage, Yu Yichen would definitely demand an annulment!

It did not matter if her engagement was broken off by the Yu family. But her father’s company would also be in dire straits! Besides, there were her hospitalized mother’s hefty medical bills too. The daily medical expenses to sustain her life were staggering.
