Ji Nuan’s ears immediately burned after hearing his words. Goosebumps also covered her shoulders and neck after being teased by the water he splashed on her.

She turned her head away to avoid him but the man had already bent down. He patiently and gently carressed the bite wound on her neck.

She sat in the tub, frozen from his actions. She feared that if she allowed herself to move, she would accidentally release a moan. Her back was pressed against the side of the tub while her eyes were fixed on the warm water in front. She wasn’t sure if the sensation evoked by his touch on her neck was pain or something else, but she knew that as Mo Jingshen was watching her wound, his mood had to be poor.

“When he was biting you, you should have directly smashed him unconscious. Will you only learn to be decisive after getting hurt?” The man’s voice was right by her earside. It was low, heavy and husky.

Ji Nuan ignored him. She placed her palms on her knees but could not resist curling her fingers in from his touch: “At the time, there was only a single ashtray in the room and it was placed quite far away. If there had been something I could reach for easily, I would have done it the moment I opened my eyes to see him.”

As though he had heard an answer he was extremely satisfied with, the man’s hand shifted away from her neck and moved to hold the back of her head. His touch urged her to turn to look at him.

“When you lost control because of the drug effects and had to run into the bathroom for a cold shower, what was running through your mind?”

Ji Nuan’s heart pounded heavily. She wanted to shift her gaze away but the man kept her in place with his hand.

What was running through her mind?

What else could it be?

He knew the answer, yet he asked. She had lived two lives but the only man she ever had was him. Naturally, every single image that appeared in her mind involved him pressing her down. In fact, when he finally appeared, she even suspected for a moment if the desire was driving her into hallucination.

What was there to be surprised about?

She would frighten herself if she had actually desired some other man. Besides, those were just thoughts.

“Not only is your mouth stubborn, your temper is also stubborn. Yet I insist on throwing myself into the embrace of a prickly hedgehog like you. You say, right now, can I be considered a masochist?” His tongue slowly moved from her cheek to the back of her ears and toward her neck. His voice was low, husky and indistinct: “Even when a gentle touch may hurt me, I do it happily. There are countless methods to bring you back into my arms. Even if this is only a physical intimacy, at the very least, when you’re in trouble, your body is still honest and remembers who it desires.”

“How are you so sure that I was thinking of you? There are countless men in this world, and I’ve met countless good men as well.”

The man chuckled heavily by her ears: “Based on the fact that I’m the first man you’ve ever had and the last man you’ll ever have. I have the ability to make you lose interest in all other men. When it comes to such matters, you’ll only ever accept intimacy from me. I’m the only one you will ever like.”

“…”

His confidence caused Ji Nuan to choke in anger: “CEO Mo’s ability for shamelessness and wishful thinking is truly growing more and more perfect.”

He smiled: “I don’t know about other things, but earlier at the hotel, from your initial struggle to the moment you recognised clearly that I was the one holding you, it’s pretty hard to forget the way your body relaxed immediately.”

“Mo Jingshen, I’ve discovered that you’re really unreasonably shameless. You’re trying to provoke me into fighting with you, aren’t you? In that situation, I was basically isolated with enemies and completely helpless. Compared to Sheng Yihan, of course you would feel like safety. That was my instinct… ah…”

Before Ji Nuan could finish speaking, the man silently undid her bra clasp from behind. Right now, she was forcefully enduring the effects of the drug. Her body was extremely sensitive. The tight bra was suddenly undone and the sensation of the warm water brushing against her sensitive area caused her body to tremble heavily. Her gaze became distant for a moment.

“Your instincts to what?”

As he spoke, he reached his long arms out and brought her out of the water, making her sit on the side of the tub. Her body was dyed with pink and the moment she left the water, her body trembled from the cold. Before she could react, the man’s kiss landed on her lips. Ji Nuan’s body softened in his embrace without any resistance and he immediately pressed her against the bathroom wall to deepen their kiss. Even though she clearly had more to say, she could no longer remember the words. She felt as if her body was almost melting into a puddle.

Ji Nuan’s body was still dripping wet and the man’s clothes had become soaked from their actions. The bathroom was filled with steam and the man’s wet clothes revealed his seductive body silhouette. In this foggy bathroom, all that was left was their body heat and the breaths that were intertwining.

Ji Nuan could no longer sit properly. Her back was leaning against the wall and both her hands were gripping onto the man’s shirt to keep her from slipping down. All of her rationality had dissipated after this one kiss.

Yet, right when she lost control and lifted her arms to return his embrace and his kiss, right as she began pushing herself into his arms, the man abruptly stopped the kiss. He moved away from her.

Ji Nuan’s hands had been gripping his shirt and because of his movements, her grip became empty. Her hands fell listlessly by her lap.

Her desire was burning away her rationality. She opened her eyes, little droplets of water clinging onto her lashes, as she stared at the man dazedly. His clothes were almost fully soaked: “You… what are you doing…”

He suddenly kissed her and ignited the desire she barely suppressed. Now he was letting go of her again.

Was it that fun to watch her suffering?

The man casually took down a towel and placed it on top of her head. Just as Ji Nuan frowned, directing her reddened, desire and frustration filled eyes to glare at him, he rubbed her damp hair dry. He then wiped the water droplets away from her body. Even though Ji Nuan appeared frustrated from his actions, he wiped her down patiently.

She was tormented; the sensation was as though there were countless kittens pawing at her skin. Whenever the towel brushed against her skin, she could vaguely feel the heat in the man’s palm through the material, yet she couldn’t obtain it. The desire and frustration was about to drive her mad.

Ji Nuan could no longer resist it. She reached her arms up to hold his neck and lifted her head to bite him. Her voice was impatient and hoarse: “Stop wiping…”

The man chuckled lightly with his low, husky voice: “You’ve just taken a cold shower. If you don’t wipe your body dry, you’ll catch a cold.”

The woman could not resist rubbing her burning face against the man’s chin. She saw that his lower body was clearly showing a reaction, yet he appeared as though nothing was wrong in this world. She was angered into biting down on his chin.
