Reborn and fleeing for his life, he unexpectedly knocks on the door of the prince of Beijing's

Fortunately, Wang Ming was quite efficient. After quickly administering the medicine to Wen Shengsheng, he left.

Although Wen Shengsheng is temporarily out of danger, Xi Yu still needs to investigate to find out what happened.

Wen Shengsheng didn't dare to linger here any longer, otherwise she was afraid that Gong Xiaochen would lose his temper and smash the place.

Lin Yong gave her her phone and bag.

She thanked him and prepared to leave.

Xi Yu did not try to stop her, and quietly watched her retreating figure.

Just before opening the door, Wen Shengsheng couldn't help but turn around and ask, "What happened to Zhou Xiang afterward?"

"Don't be afraid. He won't be a threat to you anymore. I'll tell you everything once the investigation into the restaurant incident is complete."

Xi Yu never makes promises lightly, so if he says this, then he really has handled it well.

Everything was so chaotic last night, except for his words, "Wen Shengsheng is the most important person to me..."

She can't remember anything else.

"Go back and get some rest for a couple of days. You'll be fine."

Xi Yu's voice was soft, and his gaze was gentle. When she was little, he would always comfort her like this when she was sick and couldn't sleep.

However, Wen Shengsheng dared not look. She lowered her eyes and pulled Gong Xiaochen away from Yunding Lake Residence.

"Ah."

Accompanied by the cold sound of the door closing.

Xi Yu's heart, like the villa itself, felt empty as he stared blankly at the doorway.

Lin Yong, standing nearby, hesitated before asking, "Young Master, have you brought Miss Wen here before?"

"No."

"How did Miss Wen know where the main entrance on the first floor was? Didn't you just have breakfast on the second floor?"

Xi Yu narrowed his eyes.

She knew more than just the location of the main gate...

The box of sugar cubes in the sideboard was something he had bought before, and it had never been used since it was placed there.

However, Wen Shengsheng found the sugar cube's location precisely without asking anyone.

At that moment, he even felt that Wen Shengsheng knew this place better than he did.

"Miss Wen, are you alright?"

As soon as Wen Shengsheng got into the car, Du Yuan couldn't help but ask a question.

His face was filled with deep guilt, and he also looked tired, probably because he hadn't rested last night.

"It's alright, I'm fine, don't worry." Afraid that he would blame himself, Wen Shengsheng quickly comforted him.

Du Yuan wanted to say something more, but after seeing Gong Xiaochen's gloomy face in the back seat, he swallowed his words and silently started the car.

Wen Shengsheng glanced at her phone.

Since last night, Gong Xiaochen and Du Yuan have called her countless times...

He suddenly appeared at Yunding Lake in the middle of the night. It is estimated that after failing to contact her, he abandoned his affairs in Haicheng and rushed back.

Wen Shengsheng couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

She grabbed Gong Xiaochen's hand. "Did I interfere with your negotiations with the Su family? Do you still need to go?"

Gong Xiaochen glanced at her sideways.

Many emotions surged in those dark, sharp eyes, but at the last moment they all turned into a faint sadness.

"No, you don't need to worry about the Su family's affairs."

"So you're angry that I was with Xi Yu last night?"

Gong Xiaochen tightened his grip on her hand. "No, thankfully he showed up in time last night, otherwise you would have been alright."

Hearing him say that, Wen Shengsheng finally felt relieved.

She smiled with relief, wanting to say something more, but Gong Xiaochen suddenly pulled her into his arms.

He wasn't angry, nor did he say anything; he just quietly held her.

Wen Shengsheng's smile froze slightly as she suddenly felt that something was separating them.

Today is Saturday, and they don't have to work, so the two of them went straight home.

The thought of spending time in Zhou Xiang's room last night made Wen Shengsheng feel nauseous. The first thing she did when she got home was to take a shower.

She washed vigorously, not wanting to think about that person again, or the strong smell of blood in his room and the stench of the hunting dogs.

Just as I was scrubbing vigorously, the bathroom door was suddenly opened.

"Who is it?" She was startled and turned her back.

Turning his head, he saw Gong Xiaochen walk in.

"Are you going to take a shower here too? I'll be done soon," she asked.

Gong Xiaochen looked down at her, then grabbed her waist from behind, pressing her body against him.

Their eyes met, and a hint of desire slowly rose in the bathroom.

Her body, coated in shower gel, felt exceptionally smooth, and as he repeatedly stroked her, Wen Shengsheng's body warmed up.

It was the first time she had ever been so naked and exposed to a man in the bathroom. She felt a little shy and nervously stared at the wall in front of her, afraid to move.

"Wen Shengsheng," he called out in a low voice.

"Ah."

"..."

Unable to hear anything further from him, Wen Shengsheng could only look up at him again.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Gong Xiaochen turned her body around and lowered his head to kiss her.

The temperature in the bathroom instantly rose. Wen Shengsheng was so overwhelmed by Gong Xiaochen's kisses that she couldn't help herself. She climbed onto his strong chest with both hands, raised her long, white neck, and invited him to take things further.

Gong Xiaochen was already panting, but he simply touched her forehead with his lips and then hugged her again.

Do you still love him?

Upon hearing Gong Xiaochen's words, Wen Shengsheng was slightly taken aback.

She opened her eyes and met Gong Xiaochen's dark eyes, as black as the night sky, through the mist.

Their eyes were filled with desire, a mixture of tenderness and affection.

However, Gong Xiaochen restrained himself from making any further moves, staring intently at Wen Shengsheng, as if her answer determined his next action.

"I don't love him," she answered decisively. "Why do you ask? Do you think I have feelings for him?"

“From the first day I met you, I knew you loved him.” Gong Xiaochen’s voice was very low, as if he wanted to drag Wen Shengsheng into an abyss.

The hand that was clinging to his chest slowly slid down.

Wen Shengsheng looked at him, but couldn't discern his true thoughts.

"what do you want to say in the end?"

Gong Xiaochen stroked her face, his tone suddenly becoming forceful, "I want to inform you that whether you're telling the truth or not, it's impossible for you and him to be together anymore, because you are my woman, Gong Xiaochen's woman!"

After speaking, he picked up Wen Shengsheng and pressed her against the wall behind the bathroom.

Suddenly feeling weightless, Wen Shengsheng cried out in surprise, grabbing his neck with one hand and the glass wall beside her with the other.

A delicate humming sound mingled with the mist and gently rippled outwards.

Messy fingerprints were left on the fogged glass wall.

When the two of them came out of the bathroom, Wen Shengsheng had no strength left.

She leaned against Gong Xiaochen, enjoying as he dried her body and hair with a towel.

"I heard that you personally approved the investment project at Hongyuan?" Wen Shengsheng asked.

"Is this what you wanted to ask me when I sent the message last night?"

"Ah."

"Do you care?"

Wen Shengsheng turned to look at him, "Although the Xi family is very powerful and Qingshan Capital is not short of money, this project is too big and it will be very difficult to invest in it. So I want to know why you did this? The person Xi Jianguo went to Qingshan Capital to find was you, right?"

Gong Xiaochen stopped what he was doing, his eyes were dark, as if shrouded in a deep mist, and he looked lifeless.

"Do you think I'm deliberately using this project to set a trap for Xi Yu?"
