After being tricked twice, Gu Mang had learned her lesson. When Lu Chengzhou was recovering in bed, she could fool around as much as she wanted. Ever since he recovered from all of his injuries, she had tried not to mess with him. So no matter how she answered such a question from Lu Chengzhou, it seemed like she was asking for trouble.

  For a long while, Gu Mang did not make a sound. Her eyes were droopy. The girl’s eyelid was very thin and her skin was so pale that it glowed. Her thin veins could be seen clearly.

  Lu Chengzhou’s eyes were really deep. He grabbed the back of her neck and asked again, “Where are you looking at with your head down?”


  Gu Mang’s eyes subconsciously turned to a certain part of the man’s body and her gaze shifted quickly. She tightened her fingers that were grasping the corners of the blanket.

  “Why aren’t you talking?” Lu Chengzhou’s eyes stopped on her slightly trembling eyelids. “Did you think that whatever you were looking at was good? Did you like that?”


  Gu Mang looked up and locked eyes with him for a short second, then she continued looking down. “I wasn’t looking……”


  “Mmh……” Lu Chengzhou nodded slowly as if he believed her. In a lazy tone, he continued, “I haven’t even mentioned what you were looking at.”


  Gu Mang bit her lip. She was slightly losing it.

  Lu Chengzhou turned his head and leaned close to her ear. “Where did you think I was talking about?”


  When he spoke, his lips touched her ear and his breath swept past her skin. Gu Mang curled her fingers uncontrollably. Her ears went numb.

  Lu Chengzhou licked her ear and bit it softly. He spoke in a low tone, “Come on, tell me. What is it that you like?”


  Gu Mang shrank and wanted to keep distance between them but the back of her neck was tightly in his hands.

  Lu Chengzhou pulled her hand and pointed at his lips. “Here?”


  Gu Mang couldn’t help but think of the things that his mouth had done.

  “Or this?” He raised his hand and waved it in front of her eyes.

  Gu Mang remained silent.

  Lastly, he reached down to the place with her hand in his. “Or do you want to try this?”


  Gu Mang couldn’t take it anymore. She pulled back her arm forcefully and looked up. Then, in a cold tone, she said, “Are you going to sleep? If you aren’t, get out.”


  Seeing her angry face, Lu Chengzhou laughed in a low tone. “Calm down. We will sleep now.”


  Gu Mang turned around and wanted to sleep. Before she moved her body, a warm hand grabbed her by the chin and turned her head back.

  She was getting a little frustrated. “Lu Chengzhou, y-you……”


  Before she could finish, he grabbed her chin and kissed her on the lips. He wished that he could just swallow her up. Lu Chengzhou grabbed her by the shoulder and pushed her on the bed. His palm reached to her wrist and he held her down forcefully on both sides.

  He was on top of her.

  With the light behind him, she saw the look in his eyes and she knew that he had gotten out of control. The back of her spine stiffened and she trembled a little.

  Lu Chengzhou noticed her stiffness and stroked her hair to soothe her. With no intention of letting her go, he pressed himself on her and said, “Come on, inspect the goods.”


  Gu Mang’s finger shook and her breathing was chaotic. Her heart was palpitating wildly.

  He was way more…… than she thought.

  “How is it? Are you satisfied?” Lu Chengzhou’s voice was low and hoarse. It was really lustful.

  “Pretty satisfied,” Gu Mang answered with a calm look, but her voice was a little shaky. “Can I sleep now?”


  Lu Chengzhou laughed. “Are you still thinking of going to sleep?”


  Gu Mang was silent.

  He continued, “Wishful thinking.”


  Gu Mang stared at him with her black eyes.

  Lu Chengzhou’s voice was hoarse as he bit her earlobe and said, “Gu Mang, you have messed with me for three months. It’s time for you to pay up.”
……

  Some time passed.

  Gu Mang looked at her hand and then away. She got out of the bed and said, “Clean it up well.”


  Lu Chengzhou laughed. His exquisite eyes were really alluring and he watched her back. Gu Mang entered the bathroom and washed her hands. Those things were washed away with the water but her two palms were still a little red.

  Lu Chengzhou entered and stood behind her. He pressed himself against her back.

  His chin was on the top of her head and they were pressed together. Gu Mang looked up at his reflection in the mirror.

  Lu Chengzhou looked down, squeezed some hand wash on his hand, and held her hands. Then, he carefully washed each of her fingers and rinsed them under the water.

  “You are still young, I’ll let you off for now,” Lu Chengzhou said softly beside her ear.

  Gu Mang looked up and stared expressionlessly into the eyes of the man in the mirror. In a cold tone, she said, “Why didn’t you think that I was still young when you made me help you out just a while ago?”


  Lu Chengzhou reached up to get a towel and wiped her hands. Then, he wiped his own, and put the towel back. He took her hand and walked into the bedroom. He rubbed her fingers and said nothing.

  She had thought that it was all over, but when they returned to the bedroom, Lu Chengzhou’s tricks gave her yet another surprise.

  He ‘tormented’ her.

  When it ended, Gu Mang frowned and turned to him. “I have nothing going on tomorrow.”


  Lu Chengzhou paused as he was grabbing tissue papers. He raised his eyebrows.

  “The previous time, I had training the next day,” Gu Mang said. “This time, I have nothing going on.”


  Lu Chengzhou asked in a hoarse voice, “Do you want to……?”


  Gu Mang did not answer.

  Lu Chengzhou continued. “I asked the doctors in Red Flame. They said 18 was still rather young.”


  Gu Mang was silent.

  She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but ultimately, she did not.
