Chapter 178 *The Trapped Xiong Mei* (1)

"... Why did you put your clothes back on?"

"I-I," Xiong Mei stumbled over her words, her sense of discomfort evident.

It was a simple matter – she couldn't exactly emerge from the bathroom in the nude.

In Zhang Wei's mind, a simple towel would have sufficed if she was feeling uneasy about stepping out naked.

With a resigned sigh, he headed toward the bathroom, not only to give her some space, but also to consider that the thrill of undressing her could be savored slowly later.

Unaware of his calculating thoughts, Xiong Mei obediently settled onto the bed. Her mind was a whirlwind of uncertainty, a voice echoing in her head as her gaze remained fixated on the bathroom door.

Was she really going to go through with this?

It all felt like a blur. She vividly remembered toasting with her friends, yet suddenly her memory became hazy, and she found herself in a room alone with a man significantly older than her.

Age wasn't the primary concern, but Zhang Wei's status cast a heavy shadow.

From the very beginning, it was clear that she wouldn't be receiving any official position – not that she had aimed for one, to begin with.

"Ugh!"

Her internal turmoil seemed to reach a peak, and Xiong Mei's instinctual response was to curl her feet up onto the bed, pulling her knees against her chest.

She huddled there, almost shrinking into herself, a small gasp escaping her lips.

What was she even doing?

What was going on in her mind today?

The realization hit her like a tidal wave – tonight was going to be the night she lost her virginity to a man she barely knew.

It was a surreal thought, considering they had only met a day ago.

Everything was moving far too swiftly for her comfort.

But the bigger question loomed: Could she really voice her uncertainty and protest to him? Would he even entertain the idea?

As distress clouded her expression, it lent an air of vulnerability that held a unique kind of charm.

There was an old saying that women looked their most beautiful when they cried, and in this moment, it seemed strangely satisfying.

Zhang Wei didn't keep Xiong Mei waiting for long. In a matter of minutes, he emerged from the bathroom.

His presence was undeniable as he emerged from the bathroom, a cloud of steam swirling around him. Clad only in a towel, his sculpted physique was on full display, catching Xiong Mei off guard.

Her head lifted at his approach, and a rosy hue quickly spread across her cheeks as her eyes inadvertently met his form.

An awkward mix of curiosity and embarrassment painted her expression as her gaze discreetly traced his well-defined muscles.

She was unable to tear her eyes away, her mind momentarily fixated on his physical presence.

Finally breaking the silence, Zhang Wei's voice was tinged with a hint of amusement. "You seem quite interested in what you see."

____

Xiong Mei's head instantly shook, but a gasp involuntarily escaped her lips before she could catch it, causing her cheeks to blaze with a deep shade of crimson.

Her flawless, fair complexion made it near impossible for her to conceal her embarrassment. Like a subtle sign, her face betrayed her true emotions.

"Ah!"

Zhang Wei's sudden actions startled her, and a mischievous grin spread across his face as he eagerly positioned himself above her. He firmly pressed her slender form into the plushness of the mattress, as her flowing hair cascaded around the bed, entwining with her velvety skin.

Caught off guard, Xiong Mei momentarily forgot to draw breath, completely taken aback by his swift and unexpected advances.

With their faces mere inches apart, a rush of rapid breaths escaped her parted lips, their warm puffs mingling in the air. Her unwavering gaze locked onto his intense gaze, and she nervously bit down on her lower lip in response.

Zhang Wei fixated his gaze on her soft, pink lips, aching to taste their sweetness. However, an overwhelming desire to tease her first took hold of him.

He swiftly pressed his head between her delicate neck and pressed his lips against her skin, drowning in the intoxicating scent that enveloped him.

"No—!"

"Wait!"

"I-it tickles!"

"Mmmhnn~"

Xiong Mei felt her skin come alive with an electrifying and unfamiliar sensation, causing her to twist her neck in an attempt to push his head away.

But instead of deterring him, it only fueled his advances, intensifying the pounding of her heart.

What had initially been a mere tingling sensation now overwhelmed her senses, as his lips traced a path along her neck.

A surge of heat rippled through her body, igniting every nerve ending.

Determined to stifle any sound, she pressed her lips tightly together, unwilling to release even a whispered moan.

A soft "Mmm..." escaped her lips as her eyes began to moisten, her body succumbing to weakness and surrendering completely.

"Haha!" Zhang Wei let out a final chuckle before pulling away from her. Now his gaze fixed upon her helpless body, he couldn't help but laugh. "So, this time it was sunflower. That earlier fruity scent was just a perfume, huh?" he taunted, his words causing Xiong Mei to glare at him angrily. Embarrassed, she turned her head to avoid his gaze.

Despite her protests, Zhang Wei held her face firmly in his hands, forcing her to meet his intense stare. He watched her pupils dilate and felt the rapid thumping of her heart. In that moment, she tilted her head slightly, and without hesitation, he leaned forward, capturing her lips with his soft, warm ones.

"?!" Xiong Mei felt herself being consumed by a whirlwind of new sensations. It was as if her entire being was immersed in a sea of questions.

'Is this how it feels to kiss someone?'

'Not bad...'

But her thoughts quickly vanished, replaced by the powerful tide of intense emotions as he sucked on her lips, stealing her breath away.

Xiong Mei's knowledge of movies came to her aid, allowing her to anticipate the next move. With a slight hesitation visible in her eyes, she parted her lips, a mix of curiosity and nervousness coursing through her.

'Is this how it's done?'

A startled gasp escaped her lips as a foreign intruder slipped inside her cherry mouth, exploring every inch, while her inexperienced tongue tried its best to hide from his advances.

Weakly, her hands wrapped around his body, and her feet instinctively intertwined with his, no longer resisting the embrace.

Zhang Wei's excitement skyrocketed as he realized she was still innocent and fresh, making this encounter all the more special and rare for him.

After reluctantly ending one kiss, he swiftly moved in for another, oblivious to her feeble protests. He continued to indulge his desires, planting kisses on her cheeks, neck, and collarbone, marking each spot as his own.
