Yu Sheng didn’t go far, because he always felt something is bugging him, so he returned to the hotel.
But strangely, he couldn’t find anyone at the scene.
In the garden corridor, he caught Yu Jian’s voice, took a few steps, and saw a familiar figure.
“Tongtong, give me a kiss.” Yu Jian’s voice was barely audible, but to Yu Sheng, it sounded like an explosion in his ear.
The girl leaned slightly against the pillar, almost half a step away from Yu Jian. She raised her head slightly, her slender swan-like neck and sexy slender shoulders were bathed in a faint light. She tiptoed, her rosy lips slightly parted.
Yu Jian reached out to support her shoulder, also lowering his head…
There were hurried footsteps in his ears. Yu Jian noticed the swiftly approaching figure and quickly stepped back, the fist wind almost brushing past his nose.
After steadying himself with a staggered step, he saw that Yu Sheng had already protected Wan Tong behind him. At this moment, his deep eyes were covered with frost. “I said, don’t touch her!”
“Yu Sheng, I’ve also told you, I like her.” Yu Jian showed no shame.
Yu Sheng clenched his fist, the veins bulging on his slightly curled arm. The light reflected off his cold and stern face, adding a hint of chilliness. “You like her, is this how you treat her?”
“Compared to me, can you control yourself when the person you like is in front of you?”
“I can.”
Yu Sheng’s words were firm.
Yu Jian was speechless. Did Yu Sheng just admit that he likes Yue Wantong?
As male and female voices approached, Yu Jian frowned, lowered his voice, and muttered, “Then from now on, we’ll compete fairly, okay?”
He was confident he could beat Yu Sheng.
“No need to compete, she’s mine.” But Yu Sheng didn’t acknowledge Yu Jian’s proposition.
Yu Sheng had a strong possessive streak.
Yu Jian disagreed, “It’s not just me. There are many outstanding people around her. What makes you think you can say that?”
“Because I want her.”
“…” Yu Jian was left speechless again.
Wan Tong remained silent. Yu Sheng turned to check on her and found her gaze unfocused, evidently still under the spell of the mermaid’s charm.
“Tongtong…” he lowered his head, trying to awaken her.
His palm lightly touched her cool cheek, his voice carrying the desolation of the night.
The girl’s lips were rosy with the hue of peach blossoms. His Adam’s apple moved slightly, the blue-black depths of his eyes flickered uncontrollably for a moment, and a dark thought rose in his mind.
Although it was only a brief moment, it seemed as if the girl opposite had received his thought.
She suddenly reached out her arms and hung them around his neck, then her soft lips pressed against his.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment, accompanied by the pounding of his heart. Only the surging blood flowed wildly in his body.
“Yu Sheng! What are you doing!” Yu Jian was also stunned by this scene.
Although he had enchanted Yue Wantong to be affectionate with him, that ability couldn’t last long. She was even less likely to mistake Yu Sheng for him, so what did Yu Sheng just do to her?? Did he also possess the ability to enchant humans?
Yu Sheng heard Yu Jian’s exclamation, but he instinctively took a gentle sip of the sweetness delivered to his lips.
Yu Jian felt like he was going crazy, watching Yu Sheng, who was just a young boy, embrace the girl with the look of someone who had lost his senses…
Who was the one who just swore not to be seduced by beauty, not to lose control?
But it was only for a short moment. Before Yu Jian could intervene, Yu Sheng released Wan Tong and then lifted her up horizontally.
“Where do you want to take her?” Yu Jian wasn’t ready to break things off with Yu Sheng just yet.
“Home.”
Yu Jian glanced at Wan Tong, whose eyes were slowly blinking, and reminded, “She’s waking up.”
Yu Sheng subconsciously bit his lip and then let her go, but he couldn’t bring himself to meet her gaze again.
It was indeed an accident just now.
He had pondered over the abilities of the mermaid tribe before, but he hadn’t been able to enchant anyone before. Only in that moment just now, the strong desire rising in his heart had somehow made him succeed.
“A’Sheng?” Wan Tong spoke softly, her voice still a bit soft because her mind hadn’t fully cleared.
Yu Sheng stared at her petal-like lips, feeling like his heart was racing, unable to slow down.
She had no memory of his impure thoughts and actions, but he still felt guilty, as if he had slapped himself in the face, it hurt.
Wan Tong actually had her memory intact. Though she had been charmed by the mermaid’s abilities, she still had her wits about her. She just couldn’t control her actions just now.
God knows, when Yu Jian’s mind rushed towards her, she wanted to bite her own tongue off to snap out of it.
Finally, when Yu Sheng appeared, this beast had taken advantage just like Yu Jian!
He actually took advantage of her!
But undeniable was her high acceptance of the boss. Especially his seemingly innocent actions. If she could control herself, she would definitely teach him a lesson.
And now, she had to pretend she didn’t know what just happened.
“Tongtong, do you have a headache?” Yu Sheng asked nervously, his voice hoarse.
Yu Jian : “…”
Wan Tong : “…”
After blinking her thick, curled eyelashes a few times, she nodded, “I feel a little cold…”
As soon as her voice fell, Yu Jian’s coat was draped over her. “Wrap yourself up first, you seem like you’re feeling faint from the cold.”
Well, that excuse was crafted nicely. Wan Tong didn’t even need to act, she just nodded, frowning without saying a word.
The next second, the warm coat on her body was snatched away by a hand and tossed aside.
Yu Sheng’s coat was draped over her shoulders.
Yu Jian smirked slightly, looking at Yu Sheng’s face tinged with anger, he lightly chuckled, seemingly casual, but with a hint of mockery hidden within.
Wan Tong didn’t stay at the hotel any longer, she said goodbye to Yue Jingye and left early.
After the end of the evening party, Wan Tong unexpectedly hit the hot search because she stole the spotlight from those celebrities.
From her and Yue Jingye’s entrance to the photos of her being surrounded by three handsome guys, everything went viral.
The most common comment was begging her to debut.
Wan Tong also had a social media account, but she hadn’t used it since managing the Yue family.
Now it seemed like she had more than ten times the fans she had before, and those “good girl friends” of hers had actively contacted her again, trying to ride on her popularity.
On the way back to the Yue family, with Yue Jingye absent, Yu Sheng directly sat in the backseat and sat next to Wan Tong.
The driver, also a handsome young man, noticed the strange atmosphere in the backseat and drove the car faster, wanting to escape the tension.
Yu Sheng was the client’s personal bodyguard, while the other bodyguards were just regular attendants, their status and identity were different.
In less than half an hour, the car stopped in the yard.
The driver opened the door on Wan Tong’s side, and Yu Sheng came to her side as well.
Wan Tong hesitated to get out of the car, lazily taking off her suit jacket to reveal her delicate, ivory-like shoulders. Under Yu Sheng’s slightly dazed gaze, she extended her arms towards him and softly said, “A’Sheng, hug me.”
Now, it was time to teach him a lesson!
The bodyguard driver a few steps away widened his eyes, then quickly averted his gaze, pretending not to witness such an intimate scene.
Yu Sheng bent down and lifted Wan Tong out of the car.
Behind them, the bodyguard driver sighed inwardly, his face expressionless as he drove the car back to the garage.
Some people spend their whole lives as bodyguards, while others effortlessly climb to VIP status, living a life of luxury without ever having to struggle.
Yu Sheng, without looking away, whispered softly, “Is something wrong?”
Normally, she would never make such a request.
“No, I don’t know why, I just want you to hold me,” Wan Tong looked up at him, resting her head against his chest, her dewy eyes blinking a few times.
Today, she resembled a mesmerizing mermaid, enchanting and irresistible.
Noticing that Yu Sheng wasn’t looking at her, a slight smile tugged at Wan Tong’s lips as she playfully tapped her fingers against the back of his neck, as if playing a delightful tune.
But for Yu Sheng, it was a long torment.
Passing through a dimly lit corner, Wan Tong suddenly spoke up, “Stop here.”
“What’s wrong?”
“There’s something I need to take care of.”
“What do you need to handle here?” After Yu Sheng set her down, he glanced at the dark corner without streetlights.
Wan Tong crossed her arms lightly, her fingers hooking towards him, a hint of electricity flickering in her eyes.
Yu Sheng felt a jolt in his heart, and the next moment he was standing in front of her, lowering his head to meet her gaze. “Tongtong, you’re acting strange today.”
Her posture, with her hands crossed over her chest, accentuated her figure, and her slender waist seemed even more alluring, tempting one to touch.
“What’s strange?” Wan Tong raised a hand and brushed her fingertips against his cheek and the corner of his mouth, leaving a hint of sweet fragrance.
Yu Sheng, acting on instinct, placed his hands on her waist, finding them as soft and delicate as he imagined.
As Yu Sheng leaned down, his lips slightly parted and tinged with crimson, about to meet her moist ones, he heard Wan Tong’s sinister voice, “Yu Sheng, did you do something bad to a girl? There’s lipstick on your lips.”
Yu Sheng paused slightly, his eyes reflecting Wan Tong’s face, which was now filled with thinly veiled anger. Clearly, she had been teasing him deliberately.
Just when Wan Tong expected Yu Sheng to kneel down in guilt and remorse, a warm hand firmly gripped the back of her neck, followed by a gentle warmth on her lips.
“It’s your lipstick.”
“…”
A few minutes later, Wan Tong, her legs weak, was carried out from the shadows by Yu Sheng. Her cheeks were flushed, her lips slightly parted, breathing softly, her eyes half-closed with a misty haze.
In the end, who taught whom a lesson, she couldn’t say.
After Yu Sheng took a few steps, she grumbled defiantly, “Yu Sheng, you’re in big trouble.”
In response, Yu Sheng gave her a smug glance and a low, throaty laugh.
Wan Tong’s lips were slightly swollen, the color of her lipstick had faded, while Yu Sheng’s thin lips became even more vibrant, with even a hint of red at the corners of his mouth.
After escorting Wan Tong back to her room, Yu Sheng pulled her aside again, his voice heavy as he admonished, “Yu Jian is not a good person, don’t let him near you.”
“So, he’s also a mermaid?” Wan Tong’s expression remained unchanged.
Yu Sheng didn’t reply aloud, but his silence confirmed it.
At the same time, Wan Tong heard that Yu Sheng’s favorability for Yu Jian had dropped to 10.
“What did he do to me just now?” Wan Tong asked directly.
“His eyes can bewitch humans,” Yu Sheng replied.
After hearing this, Wan Tong’s lips curved into a chilly smile. “Yu Sheng, so you’ve bewitched me too?”
Quite straightforward indeed.
“…” Yu Sheng pulled her closer, pressing her against the wall, his deep blue-black eyes filled with intensity, his voice low and almost whispering like a lover’s, “Tongtong, don’t easily provoke me like that again, I won’t be able to control myself…”
He almost devoured her right there in that dark corner.
She seemed to have no self-defense capabilities at all.
Wan Tong felt both embarrassed and annoyed. He had spoken so bluntly, he was truly the boss.
She bent her knees, ready to give little one a knee-kiss, but Yu Sheng quickly reached out, pressing down on her legs, his palm holding her tightly, preventing her from moving.
“Tongtong, you can hit anywhere else, but not here…” His cold white earlobes gradually turned red.
Meeting Wan Tong’s gaze, he continued, “…it will be useful in the future.”
Wan Tong’s lips stiffened. Of course, she wouldn’t be foolish enough to ask what use it would be. Instead, she sarcastically asked, “Which little girl are you planning to harm?”
“Yue family’s Wantong.”
“…” This rogue was really something…
“Yu Sheng, get lost!”
Wan Tong’s voice echoed from the second floor to the downstairs, startling the two maids who were quietly cleaning.
“Why did he make Miss angry again…”
“Miss always tells that bodyguard to leave, but she never really drives him away.”
“Hehe, I think Miss actually likes the bodyguard…”
“I’m having a hard time shipping this couple, I still prefer Young Master Lu, a marriage alliance would be the best choice for Miss, as for the bodyguard, just for fun…”
“Oh my god, this sounds quite exciting…”
The voices of the two maids, word for word, reached Yu Sheng’s ears.
A shadow fell over his cool face in the light, the curve of his lips slightly cold. “Just for fun?”
If she wants to play him, he would let her play for a lifetime.
Wan Tong lay down and glanced at her phone, responding to a few “good girl friends” messages, and also talked to Lu Yun on the phone for a while.
Lu Yun encountered a minor car accident, but he was fine, just his car got damaged. Over the phone, he insisted that she make time to accompany him on a date tomorrow.
Wan Tong didn’t know what he was up to, but seeing his insistence, she nodded in agreement.
After hanging up the phone, she prepared to sleep, needing to muster up energy for seeing Lu Yun tomorrow.
However, she couldn’t find any sleepiness at all.
As soon as she closed her eyes, it was Yu Sheng’s annoyingly handsome face that appeared, with her lips seemingly still carrying the warmth and sensation he left behind.
The gentle pressure of his palm lingering on her neck and waist, it all made her feel ticklish.
“Ah!” Wan Tong sat up, threw off the covers, and got out of bed.
After taking a few steps, she turned back, rummaged through a drawer, and took out a thick stack of cash. After hesitating for a moment, she switched to a bank card.
As she turned to leave, she noticed a figure hurriedly entering the room.
“Tongtong, what’s wrong?”
Yu Sheng had probably been showering just now and hurried over upon hearing her voice.
His hair was still slightly damp, his upper body bare, and he was only wrapped in a towel, which barely covered below his knees.
There seemed to be a faint golden to deep blue light shining on his shins and bare feet, somewhat dazzling.
Noticing her gaze, Yu Sheng slightly pursed his lips, about to speak, when the girl suddenly took his hand, placed a bank card in his palm, and, somewhat reservedly and softly, asked, “Mermaid, how much for a night?”
