After taking a shower, Xie Ming dressed in a white-colored blouse and maroon skirt with nude-colored heels. She dressed neatly because she has to attend the script reading and has to look presentable.

  She dried her hair and put on some makeup on. When she looked at her in the mirror, she sighed seeing the red marks on her neck.

  Last night, even though they didn't pass the last step, Liwei has done everything he wanted to do. He enjoyed himself to the fullest using her upper body instead.

  She felt that they didn't stop but instead he changed his way of doing things.

  She didn't bring any turtle neck tops so that she could wear them to hide these marks. And who wears turtle neck tops in summer?

  She looked at those marks and remembered the scene from last night which made her blush involuntarily.

  When she was showering, she saw in the mirror that he had left many marks on her body. Her

  ' breasts' have suffered the most. If he could have eaten them then he would have done it happily.

  She doesn't understand why he was so obsessed with her bosoms?

  Though she has suffered from it, however, she could feel the warm feeling in her heart. Though they haven't done it all the way, still it was their first step to pass that level.

  It feels like they're slowly breaking their barriers.

  Thankfully, the marks were light in color, so she hides them with the makeup. She also wore a scarf for safety. She does not want anyone to see these marks.

  Though after applying makeup, she can't see anything she still wanted to be safe.

  She combed her hair slowly. Her gaze fell on her phone which was in charge.

  She checked it and realized that there was no message from Liwei.

  She was a little disappointed about it because he didn't even wake her up before leaving and hadn't even talked after last night.

  She has experienced many things in the past, so that's why she was more sensitive towards these things than others.

  She stared at her phone for a while and decided to call him.

  Before she could call him, her phone suddenly started ringing.

  It was Liwei.

  Seeing his call, her heart was touched and a smile plastered on her lips.

  It was not a big deal but she felt delighted that he was thinking about her as well.

  ' So, he was also thinking about me.'

  After picking up the call, before she could say anything, she heard his voice from the other side,

  " You wake up?"

  His manly charming voice ringed in her ears like music. It was so attractive that she felt her heart beating fast.

  After last night, something changed between their relationship. She felt that she has become more shy and embarrassed while talking to him.

  She smiled without any reason and said in a low voice, " Yes."

  " When did you leave the room?" she asked while fidgeting with her lipstick.

  Liwei raised his brows when he heard her voice. Her voice was extremely gentle and attractive at this moment.

  He remembered how seductive she was looking last night. He couldn't forget her image when she was laid on the bed with her half-naked body.

  He could not forget that moment in his life. They didn't do it, but he was satisfied with whatever they did.

  He could not forget how she helped him with her hand later. It was so pleasurable and satisfying that he does not want her to stop.

  But he has to let her go otherwise, her hand will get hurt.

  He tried to get out of his thoughts and clears his throat.

  " I left the room in the early morning. I promised you that I will leave the room in the morning, so I have to keep it," he said while cuffing the button of the shirt on his wrist.

  " Hmm. By the way, why did you change me into pajamas?" she asked in displeasure.

  Liwei stopped in his actions and was stunned when he heard his words.

  He raised his brows and his lips curled in a smile and asked in a low seductive voice, " Why? Did you want to remain naked? Hmm, if you like it that way, then you don't need to wear clothes whenever you're with me. I want you to be comfortable." he said as a low chuckle left his mouth.

  Hearing his words, Xie Ming's face turned crimson. She was so embarrassed when she heard his words.

  She opened her mouth to say something but no words came out.

  This man always thinks about what he wants.

  " I…… I didn't mean that. I was just saying that you should have let me change myself when I said earlier. That way you didn't need to change my clothes." she explained herself hurriedly while stuttering in between.

  He laughed lightly and said, " But I like helping you change clothes. I can do this work for my whole life. If you want, I can not help you with changing clothes only but in bathing as well. You will be surprised to see my skills during the bath. Want to try someday?" he asked her playfully.

  He could already imagine them together under the shower with their bodies tangled with each other. He tried to pull himself from his unrestrained thoughts.

  Xie Ming was speechless hearing his shameless words.

  ' This man doesn't know the meaning of being shameless.'

  He keeps making such shameless remarks.

  " If you keep talking like this, then I will hang up. " she threatened him with a stern voice while trying to cover her flushed face.

  " Okay, fine. You have your script reading today, right?" he asked her as he sat on the sofa in the room.

  " Yes. We're supposed to leave by 3 in the afternoon after lunch and will reach by the night," she said as she tried to remember the schedule.

  " You don't need to leave. Just make an excuse to stay here," he said casually.

  "Hmm? Why?" Xie Ming was surprised by hearing his words.

  Shouldn't he be excited about her coming back soon? Why is he asking her to stay back?

  His lips curled upwards in a smile as she said, " Just stay back. I will fill you with the details later."

  Xie Ming was confused but didn't say anything. She just nodded and said, "Okay, now I have to go. I am getting late for the script reading.".

  Liwei hummed and hung up the phone.

  After getting dressed up, Xie Ming went outside to see Yuan Lei coming out of her room lethargically.

  She was looking worn out and was very tired. She has dark circles under her eyes.

  Surprisingly, she was wearing a full-sleeved shirt with jeans and heels. She was looking entirely different from her yesterday's look.

  Xie Ming was surprised to see her dressed up like this.

  She bowed slightly in greeting, but Yuan Lei ignored her and went ahead.

  Xie Ming furrowed her brows when she ignored her and made annoying expressions while passing by her.

  But she was more shocked when she saw Yuan Lei walking weirdly. She was staggering and her legs were trembling while walking.

  She is very thin and her body was very weak. But today, she was looking very frail and lethargic.

  She could sense why she was staggering like this.

  She has spent the night outside with a ' friend' and has come looking like this. Her lips were swollen and had some marks as well.

  It seems someone has bitten her on her lips and it looks quite deep. Now, what can she think of her condition?

  Xie Ming didn't say anything to her and went downstairs.

  In the hotel lobby, she met with Xu Lan and Song Xiner.

  Xu Lan turned to her and said, " You're here? I was about to call you. Let's go, everyone has reached the restaurant. We need to have breakfast." Xu Lan grabbed her arm and led her to the restaurant in the hotel.

  Xie Ming didn't say anything and followed her there While Song Xiner also came along with them.

  When they reached the Chinese restaurant in the hotel, Xie Ming was impressed with his classic decor.

  It was not dull nor extremely shiny. It was just perfect.

  Upon reaching the restaurant, she saw others who had already arrived.

  Wu Sheng looked at Xie Ming and greeted her, " You're on time. Let's eat something, now you came. I am really hungry." he rubbed his hands in anticipation.

  She smiled at him and nodded.

  Yuan Lei frowned seeing his expressions and said, " What are you doing? Mr. Han is about to come. How can we eat just because she came? " she sneered in a low voice.

  Wu Sheng looked at her with his gaze darkened.

  " Mr. Han arrived? Where is he?" Xie Ming ignored her other words and asked Xu Lan about Mr. Han's whereabouts.

  " He arrived in the morning. He has gone to the room to freshen up. He must be about to come." Xu Lan said calmly.

  Even though Yuan Lei was not wrong at this time and it would not be polite to eat food without him but her way of saying was very rude and unacceptable, that's why she didn't take her side.

  " Then we should start eating after Mr. Han's comes. It would be rude if we start now." Xie Ming smiled at Wu Sheng trying to give him some encouragement to stay there.

  Wu Sheng nodded when he heard Xie Ming's words. He ignored Yuan Lei's glare and treated her as she didn't exist.
