Bai Jinghong seized the moment. His body went limp again as he stealthily raised a hand to shield Yun Mengxi.
Then, as he tried to get up, it was as if he suddenly lost all his strength, dragging Yun Mengxi down with him.
The two of them fell directly onto the soft carpet.
And Bai Jinghong’s head landed directly on Yun Mengxi’s chest.
“Ah~ mmm… Jinghong, you… get up quickly…”
Yun Mengxi was mortified. She patted Bai Jinghong.
“Huh? Oh!” Bai Jinghong looked groggy, his vision blurry.
He lifted a hand to push himself off the ground, intending to get up, but as if drained of energy, he collapsed down again.
His head collided with that soft, fragrant place once more.
What was most fatal was that Bai Jinghong, seemingly addicted to the feeling, repeated the motion four times in a row.
Yun Mengxi had also drunk a fair amount. She felt tormented to the point of exhaustion. Each hit was right on the mark, deeply embarrassing.
But she never suspected that Bai Jinghong was faking it.
Mainly because there was no reason to suspect it.
He had drunk so much—wasn’t it normal to be this drunk?
She also felt some regret. She shouldn’t have drunk so much, resulting in Bai Jinghong ending up in such a state.
Bai Jinghong’s face was buried in that deep valley. The fragrance wafting from Yun Mengxi’s clothes was insanely alluring.
He even had to resist the urge to turn his head and take a bite of the mountain peaks.
But he had to endure!
For a long while, Yun Mengxi still couldn’t move Bai Jinghong off her. She could only lie on the carpet, panting heavily.
“Jinghong… Jinghong…” Yun Mengxi pushed him and called out a few more times. “Wake up. I… I’ve never let a man stay overnight here… you…”
Still no response.
Yun Mengxi thought for a moment, then fumbled in Bai Jinghong’s pocket to pull out his phone, wanting to call his driver to pick him up.
But when she lit up the screen, it required a fingerprint passcode.
Following the common unlocking habit, she took his right thumb, then his index finger… several fingers in succession.
But they were all wrong.
Faking unconsciousness, Bai Jinghong laughed inwardly. “You’d never guess that just for tonight, I changed my fingerprint unlock to my toes!”
“No fingerprint, and you don’t know the passcode. So just let me sleep here!”
“System, exchange for a ‘Spring has come, it’s the season for mating’ for me.” Bai Jinghong silently communicated with his system.
[Ding, Host, the store doesn’t carry such things!]
“Damn, do I have to spell it out so explicitly? An aphrodisiac gas!”
“Tonight, I want to experience the passive role. I want to be the one who gets taken by Yun Mengxi!”
[Understood!]
[One hundred Exchange Points. Exchanged for ‘Fanciful Longings’]
[Target: Yun Mengxi. Object sought upon activation: The Host. Will take effect in fifteen minutes. Host, please manage your time!]
[Be a diligent time-management master.]
“Good system, you can shut up now. Don’t distract me!”
Yun Mengxi, of course, had no idea of Bai Jinghong’s scheme.
She rested for a bit, finally gathering some strength, and with a direct roll, switched their positions, putting Bai Jinghong underneath.
Then, red-faced, she slowly let out a sigh of relief.
“What should I do? I can’t just leave him here!”
After deliberating for a short while, Yun Mengxi still felt she needed to help Bai Jinghong to the guest room.
Yun Mengxi was a woman, after all. Supporting a drunk man was extremely strenuous.
Even though the guest room was only about a dozen meters from the dining room, past just two doors, she was already panting heavily from exertion.
A slight sheen of sweat appeared on her forehead. She leaned against the door frame to rest for a good while.
Only then did she help Bai Jinghong towards the guest room.
“Jinghong, you… lie down on the small sofa for a moment. I… I’ll go make the bed for you.”
Yun Mengxi murmured to the ‘drunk’ Bai Jinghong.
Then, she quickly ran upstairs to get clean sheets and a duvet cover.
During this time, Bai Jinghong swiftly took out his phone and sent a message to Ah Kun and the others: “You guys withdraw!”
Then, acting drunk again, he lay back down.
Soon, Yun Mengxi returned.
Her face was increasingly flushed. She didn’t know why, but her body felt intensely hot and restless.
The bedding she carried was her own. Although it was freshly laundered, the thought of a man sleeping on her sheets and duvet cover still made her feel shy.
After she finished making the bed, she went over to help Bai Jinghong up again.
She just needed to get him onto the bed, and that would be it.
But just as she was helping Bai Jinghong to the bedside, a ringtone blared from a pocket.
The sudden ringing made her flinch, and her arm gave way.
In that instant, she was pressed onto the bed by Bai Jinghong again.
Yun Mengxi felt a bit of a mental collapse.
She genuinely had very little strength left. She simply stopped moving and pulled out the phone.
It was that number again. She had a good memory and knew it was that Ye Chen.
Yun Mengxi didn’t want to answer at all, but she feared he would keep calling.
So she picked up the call.
“Why are you calling me?” Yun Mengxi was panting for breath, her voice somewhat hurried.
On the other end, Ye Chen was first stunned, and then his mind filled with a black line of suspicion.
“Miss Yun, are you still working out this late?”
Yun Mengxi felt Bai Jinghong’s weight on her and grew even more restless and irritated. She was impatient with Ye Chen’s call. “If you have something to say, say it.”
Ye Chen hurriedly said, “Sorry, sorry to bother you so late. I heard from a friend that something seemed to have happened at your villa.”
“Do you need my help?”
“Hah!” Yun Mengxi snorted coldly. “You know where I live?”
If she had been eighty percent certain before that Ye Chen was the one who smashed her villa, now she was one hundred percent sure.
That bastard! Wasn’t this proof he was investigating her? If it wasn’t him, then who?
If not for Bai Jinghong, that night he would have shown up for a ‘hero saves damsel’ act.
Then she would have definitely been fooled by him, maybe even foolishly considered him her savior.
Ye Chen also felt his sudden contact was too abrupt and presumptuous.
He was already regretting that he hadn’t known about it when Yun Mengxi was at her most frightened.
So when he got the news, in his anxiety, he impulsively called to ask.
He was so worried that he forgot to think of a proper excuse.
But he still tried to explain: “It’s like this, I’ve been paying some attention to you, so…”
As he said this, he only made things worse, adding detail to the accusation.
Yun Mengxi directly hung up the phone and even cursed angrily, “Shameless! Scum!”
Bai Jinghong, listening in, was chuckling inwardly.
“Thanks to good buddy Ye Chen for the self-detonation!”
Yun Mengxi casually tossed her phone aside, and then with another roll, she was on top of Bai Jinghong again.
But with this delay, the fifteen minutes were up.
Yun Mengxi’s eyes suddenly became hazy. She couldn’t help biting her lip, her body burning with restlessness.
Especially since she was sitting right on top of Bai Jinghong.
She couldn’t help but look at him.
The already handsome Bai Jinghong had, for some reason, become even more devastatingly handsome, more and more entrancing the more she looked.
Gazing at him, her heart pounded wildly. She couldn’t resist reaching out a hand to touch his forehead, then sliding down to the tip of his nose, finally stopping at his lips.
Bai Jinghong naturally felt the scorching aura emanating from the beauty above him.
He cheered inwardly once more: “Come on! Let us do battle! Do not spare me just because I am a delicate flower!”
But Yun Mengxi was still a woman of relatively strong willpower.
As if receiving an electric shock, she quickly pulled her hand back.
She shook her head vigorously several times, trying to force those thoughts out of her mind.
She got off the bed but couldn’t bring herself to leave the room.
“He… he’ll probably be uncomfortable sleeping in his clothes…”
Whether it was for Bai Jinghong’s comfort or some other reason, Yun Mengxi found herself drawn back to his side as if possessed.
First, she took off his shoes, then she unbuttoned his coat and slowly removed it.
Then, she unbuttoned Bai Jinghong’s shirt.
His perfect physique and sharply defined abs were instantly revealed before her eyes.
Yun Mengxi felt she was going crazy, her heart racing madly.
“I… how could I have such thoughts in my head…”
“No…”
Bai Jinghong himself was getting impatient now. Damn it, her willpower was a bit too strong.
She could actually resist the item exchanged from the system for this long.
Then came the moment that excited Bai Jinghong.
He heard Yun Mengxi, in a voice as faint as a mosquito’s buzz, murmuring lowly: “He’s really drunk. If I… If I secretly do something… he won’t find out, either…”
In that instant, the crack in her willpower became a dam burst, an unstoppable flood.
Yun Mengxi slowly unbuttoned her own top, revealing her fair, fragrant shoulders. She then shed nearly everything and moved closer to Bai Jinghong.
The contact of skin against skin made it impossible for her to control her consciousness.
Her beautiful face hovered near Bai Jinghong’s. She reached out and touched his lips again.
Then, with hazy eyes, her moist little mouth pressed directly onto Bai Jinghong’s lips.
“Mmm… nn…”
This time, Yun Mengxi took the lead, her fragrant tongue silently slipping inside.
