By the time everything was over, another hour had passed.
Zi Yue was completely broken this time.
She didn’t even have the strength to stand, entirely limp in Bai Jinghong’s arms.
She was truly furious. This mission had turned out this way.
She came to test Bai Jinghong’s depth, never expecting Bai Jinghong would test hers instead.
If Chen Lin ever found out what she did with Bai Jinghong, she couldn’t guarantee he wouldn’t kill her in a fit of rage.
According to people inside the Hell Organization, Lord Hades had already pre-booked the Four Golden Flowers.
Although Zi Yue scoffed at that rumor and never took it seriously—
To Zi Yue, if she didn’t like someone, she would rather die than let them touch her.
Even if it was the universally acknowledged, peerlessly brave War God Hades.
But now…
“Yue’er, if you’re tired, just rest here. Besides me, no one dares enter this room.”
Even after several rounds, Bai Jinghong acted as if nothing had happened, still full of vigor and vitality.
Zi Yue shot Bai Jinghong a venomous glare but couldn’t utter a word for a long time.
She was still a bit afraid that if she opened her mouth to curse him, he’d have another go at her.
That would really be the death of her.
Last night had been her first time, and after that, continuous battle—even a body of iron couldn’t endure it.
Before leaving, Bai Jinghong winked at her. “Next time we’re at it, you’re not allowed to think about killing me anymore.”
“Otherwise, I won’t be polite. I might bite your little cherry right off.”
“You…”
Zi Yue nearly died of anger.
This bastard, absolutely inhuman.
After Bai Jinghong left, she fiercely pounded the pillow a few times to vent.
But because the motion was too wide, her lower body suddenly started hurting.
“That damn bastard, it’s actually… actually so… big!”
Fortunately, Zi Yue was a master physician herself; this little problem naturally couldn’t stump her.
She definitely didn’t want to stay a single second longer in the place she had been entangled with Bai Jinghong.
After simple treatment, Zi Yue got up. Although it wasn’t as painful, her walk was still a bit awkward.
Just as she was about to leave, she hesitated, walked to the bedside, cut off that splash of bright red from the bedsheet, and took it with her.
What made Zi Yue most embarrassed was the scene after leaving the room.
She didn’t know what the hell was going on with this place, but there were quite a few people even during the day.
The way each one looked at her was extremely strange.
“She’s so happy, being favored by Young Master Bai for a whole night. Look, she can barely walk.”
“Yeah, Young Master Bai is so fierce. I want to get fucked by him!”
“You little slut.”
Lewd and profane words entered Zi Yue’s ears one after another, making her feel utterly humiliated. She could only grit her teeth and leave the place.
Once outside, Zi Yue just got into the car when her phone rang.
Taking a look, Zi Yue herself was startled.
There were actually over a dozen missed calls, all from Chen Lin.
Last night, she was basically in a dazed state, and after dawn, she fought with Bai Jinghong several more times. Where would she have time to check her phone?
But now, she had to call back.
As soon as she dialed, the other side picked up immediately.
“Yue’er, what’s going on? Why haven’t you been answering my calls? I thought something happened to you!”
Chen Lin’s voice carried a hint of anxiety.
Zi Yue said flatly, “I… my phone was on silent. I didn’t see it.”
“Oh, I see!” Chen Lin breathed a sigh of relief. “So what’s the situation now? Did you poison that bastard Bai Jinghong?”
Chen Lin knew Zi Yue’s character—resolute and swift, with a touch of obsessive-compulsiveness.
When there was something to do, she resolved it quickly, never dragging her feet.
“No. Failed.”
Chen Lin was shocked. Zi Yue actually failed?
“What happened?” Chen Lin hurriedly asked.
Zi Yue frowned. “Last night, I pretended to run into Bai Jinghong by chance. We had some drinks together.”
“According to the plan, I had already poisoned his drink. He would have been affected for sure if he drank it.”
“But that guy’s alcohol tolerance is terrible. He passed out before drinking that drugged cup.”
“Then his bodyguards took him away. I had no opportunity.”
Zi Yue definitely wouldn’t say that last night, it was actually she who had been taken away by Bai Jinghong.
“So that’s it!” Chen Lin breathed a sigh of relief. He really had been worried Zi Yue was taken advantage of by that old schemer Bai Jinghong.
After all, even he had suffered losses before.
In Chen Lin’s view, Zi Yue was definitely going to be his woman in the future. How could that bastard Bai Jinghong take any advantage of her!
It was good that nothing happened!
“Since you didn’t succeed, next time then!”
“Rest up these next two days. After that, I’ll take you to meet someone!” Chen Lin said.
“Who?” Zi Yue asked.
“The Dragon Sea Ye Family. I’ve heard the Old Family Head of the Ye Family has contracted a strange illness. I think only you can handle it!”
“As long as you save the Ye Family’s Old Family Head, the Ye Family will surely follow my lead. Then I’ll have another power base in Dragon Sea!”
“And another boost against Bai Jinghong!”
Zi Yue didn’t say much. Since it was Hades’s order, she had no reason to refuse.
“Understood,” Zi Yue said flatly.
“Good, let’s leave it at that for now. I’ve already sent the Underworld Guards to investigate the details of the Old Ye Family Head’s illness. I’ll inform you when I know, so you can prepare!”
After hanging up the phone, Zi Yue started the car.
“Bastard. Bai Jinghong truly is a sex-starved demon. I wonder if Yaoyao has been taken advantage of by his side.”
“If I ever get the chance, I’ll definitely let you know the toxicity of my Datura!”
Zi Yue spat fiercely, then drove away.
…
At this moment, Bai Jinghong was already in his office at the Bai Corporation.
He propped his legs up on the desk, humming a little tune.
His phone scrolled through the gossip of those young masters and misses in the FlyChat group.
Don’t underestimate this gossip; it contained quite a few strange tales and secret affairs of Dragon Sea.
Like which Leader was doing what with which other Leader’s wife, and so on.
This was also news that only these well-connected young masters and eldest misses could get.
However, one piece of news caught Bai Jinghong’s attention.
“Ye Family Old Family Head seriously ill, ten million reward for a famous doctor!”
The moment he saw this, the image of Chen Lin immediately popped into Bai Jinghong’s mind.
In the original story, the illness of the Ye Family Old Family Head was cured by Chen Lin bringing Zi Yue there.
The Ye Family owed Chen Lin an immense favor because of this, treating Chen Lin as an honored guest from then on.
And became a major source of support for Chen Lin.
The Ye Family wasn’t simple in Dragon Sea either. Though not as outrageously powerful as the Bai Family, they were definitely considered one of the prominent families.
Their financial power and connections were all in the upper-middle tier.
“System, the Old Ye Family Head is gravely ill, and Zi Yue has already appeared. Has the plot been moved up?”
[Ding, answering the Host: Yes. Because of the Host’s series of operations, some plotlines will appear earlier. The general outline will not change.]
[Slap the War God’s face more often for generous rewards!]
[After the Host acquires the title… looting the protagonist’s female lead Zi Yue… Legacy of Wei Wu title upgraded to Level 2, Charm Value doubled.]
[Current Base Charm Value: 200]
Bai Jinghong was delighted. Thinking about the plot to come, a wicked smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Damn, this time Chen Lin still wants to rely on Zi Yue to cure him? Does he really think my medical skills, having mastered the Nirvana Medical Scripture, are just for show?
And Zi Yue was already entered and exited by him.
While Bai Jinghong was pondering the plot, Shen Yaoyao at his side only saw that wicked smirk at the corner of his mouth.
She was absolutely furious.
This bastard guy didn’t return to the villa last night. Who knows where he went to fool around?
Now he shows such a sleazy smile; it can’t be anything good.
The moment this thought emerged, Shen Yaoyao herself was startled.
Why was she suddenly caring about Bai Jinghong’s private life?
Where he went, what did it have to do with her?
He was originally a prodigal son. Wasn’t it normal for him not to return home at night? Why did she react so strongly?
Shen Yaoyao hurriedly shook her head, trying to shake these messy thoughts out of her mind.
In her heart, she silently recited: “I’m a member of the Hell Organization, here with a purpose. I can’t change my mindset just because of a few small favors from Bai Jinghong.”
