Before, she had always been forced by Bai Jinghong, feeling only a momentary sense of violation.
But this time, she was willing, so the feeling was entirely different.
She even felt as if she wasn’t herself, as if she wanted to merge into one with Bai Jinghong.
Just as they were embracing now, it felt like their souls were fusing as well.
Because of her heart’s acceptance, this feeling was so novel and thrilling, yet intensely clear and searing, etched into her very bones.
After a long time, Bai Jinghong’s lips gently pulled away.
Only then did Shen Yaoyao slowly open her long-closed eyes, her breath a soft sigh, ripples of water seeming to flow within her pupils.
It was as if everything flowing there was sweetness.
Bai Jinghong gave a light laugh. “Finally, I see tender affection in your eyes. Truly not an easy feat!”
“We’ve kissed before, but I never saw this kind of sweetness. Instead, there was always a hint of wanting to kill me!”
Shen Yaoyao puffed out her small mouth and turned her head away.
Bai Jinghong then chuckled. “How about we go a little deeper? Take the opportunity to test your depths?”
“No… I’m not ready!” After saying it, Shen Yaoyao herself was surprised, so embarrassed she lowered her head and burrowed under Bai Jinghong’s chin.
Bai Jinghong laughed softly, not anxious at all. “Alright, then next time!”
“But this official, proper kiss right now will probably be the most special one. You might even remember it for a lifetime!”
“I won’t remember it!”
As Shen Yaoyao said this, her nose caught Bai Jinghong’s scent, making her blush and her heart race even more, a wave of heat spreading through her body.
A while later, the two finally stood up.
Looking at the wreckage around them, Shen Yaoyao still couldn’t help but sigh.
It was then that Shen Yaoyao noticed something.
How had Bai Jinghong managed to control her?
She knew her own combat power when drunk. People from the Hell Organization had to sacrifice eight hundred of their own just to suppress her.
But how could Bai Jinghong do it alone?
Thinking this, she couldn’t help but look at Bai Jinghong, her eyes full of shock and confusion.
But Bai Jinghong had already extended his hand to her side, touching it lightly.
Shen Yaoyao stopped pondering that question, reaching out her hand as well. Bai Jinghong’s fingers interlaced tightly with hers.
When the two came out and opened the door, the renovation crew outside had long been waiting nearby.
A person specifically responsible for handling matters here was also present.
Seeing Bai Jinghong and Shen Yaoyao emerge, he hurriedly greeted them. “Brother Jinghong, Sister-in-law, we’ve arranged a room over there. You can go rest!”
Bai Jinghong shook his head. “No need, I’m going home.”
“I’ll leave this to you. All damages, put them on my tab.”
“Brother Jinghong, what are you saying!” The man laughed. “Forget one entertainment venue, even if the entire Autumn Club were smashed, it wouldn’t be a problem.”
The Autumn Club operated on a shareholder system. If one had to name its true owner, it was Bai Jinghong.
It was like a shared ship; to have a place to play, everyone had to contribute a stake.
That was the point of the shareholder system here.
“Done.” Bai Jinghong couldn’t be bothered to say more, waved his hand, and pulled Shen Yaoyao away.
On the road, Shen Yaoyao remained silent, constantly thinking about how to tell Bai Jinghong about the leaked proposal.
She was still somewhat afraid of Bai Jinghong getting angry, after all, he valued that proposal so much.
Yet she had leaked it to Chen Lin.
Fortunately, there was still room to salvage everything.
She secretly decided to use a different identity to hint to Bai Jinghong that the proposal had been leaked.
As for Chen Lin’s side, she had already done what she needed to do.
Even if Chen Lin’s plan fell through and he came to hold her accountable…
That would be the Hell Organization’s “Enchantress’s” business. What did it have to do with her, “Shen Yaoyao”?
Not revealing a single piece of information about Chen Lin or the Hell Organization was already the most she could do at this moment!
Right now, she only wanted to be the little secretary Shen Yaoyao by Bai Jinghong’s side, not the Enchantress War General of the Hell Organization.
…
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Chen Lin had just walked out of the Underworld Win Group, a deeply satisfied smile on his face.
Yesterday, the proposal about the Bai Corporation that Shen Yaoyao had sent him was practically a treasure to them.
Even Impermanence, the business genius of their Hell Organization, thought that proposal had absolutely no flaws.
And according to the proposal’s content, the Bai Corporation’s main direction now was real estate.
This conflicted with their Underworld Win Group, so getting this proposal was practically divine assistance.
Not only could they suppress the Bai Corporation at every turn, but they could also reap the benefits of the Bai Corporation exhausting its manpower and resources.
Bai Corporation investments basically never lost money, so Chen Lin felt very reassured.
Suppress Bai Jinghong, and make money—perfect!
“According to the dates in the proposal, next week is the land auction. The Bai Corporation’s ceiling price is eighty billion. Then we’ll use a hundred billion to block that bastard.”
Not letting a single plot of land through.
Thinking of Bai Jinghong’s crying face then, Chen Lin felt a wave of pleasure.
And just at that moment, a car stopped not far from Chen Lin.
Out stepped an unbelievably beautiful woman.
Chen Lin’s eyes went straight.
Curves in all the right places, standing just so, a perfect figure, paired with that peerlessly beautiful face and icy, aloof aura. Chen Lin felt a stir of restlessness.
When it came to beautiful women, Chen Lin was always thick-skinned.
He directly used his years of flirting experience and went up to chat her up.
“Beauty, hello. May I be so bold as to ask, can I address you formally? That way, I can keep you in my heart!”
Chen Lin put on his signature smile, believing himself full of charm.
The woman swept her eyes over him, then looked at her phone. “It’s you!”
“Huh?” Chen Lin was taken aback, but quickly smiled. “It seems the beauty agrees with my proposition. Then perhaps…”
“Chen Lin, is it? Evidence relating to a shooting case and an illegal entry case points to you. Now, come with us for questioning!”
“Here is the summons!” After saying this, the woman pulled out a document and handed it to Chen Lin.
Chen Lin was dumbfounded.
He was just trying to pick up a girl, and this girl turned out to be a police officer, and in plainclothes too.
“What shooting case? I’m a law-abiding citizen!” Chen Lin frowned.
He truly couldn’t imagine how they could trace it back to him.
Wasn’t that Underworld Guard, Little Five, dead as a doornail?
“Whether you are law-abiding or not, come back with us and cooperate with the investigation!”
So saying, Mu Yanbing gestured, and two more plainclothes officers walked over from the other side.
Chen Lin gritted his teeth.
He could only go along.
He couldn’t resist. If he resisted, that would truly show guilt. In that case, he could basically forget about staying in the country.
“I’m calling my lawyer!” Chen Lin said.
To this, Mu Yanbing did not stop him, nor did she have any grounds to stop him.
But they had to hear the content of the call.
Thus, Chen Lin only sent a text message to Impermanence, phrased like an ordinary conversation, just asking to find a lawyer.
He believed that with the tacit understanding between himself and Impermanence, he’d know how to handle it.
This visit for him was just going through the motions; nothing else would happen.
Although being taken away, Chen Lin’s cheap mouth still occasionally spouted lewd remarks, flirting with Mu Yanbing.
Thinking himself very charming.
Mu Yanbing never responded, but she had already decided that when they entered the interrogation room, she would have to give him a taste of suffering.
News of Chen Lin being brought in was also received by Bai Jinghong.
But Bai Jinghong’s attitude was one of complete indifference.
How could a mere police station possibly hold Chen Lin?
Chen Lin would go in, but it wouldn’t be long before he came out.
Perhaps it would even lead to some entanglement with Mu Yanbing.
After all, he’s the protagonist.
Even if he got into a fight with Mu Yanbing, it could somehow produce inexplicable feelings.
In short, to make the female lead of the plot turn against the protagonist, he still had to stir trouble himself.
