  Soon after, An Feng sat for a while on the beach near the hotel villa. That was where Tang Ci found her and asked if she wanted to attend the welcome party this evening.

  With a gentle shake of her head, An Feng politely refused……

  Two hours later.

  At the time he said, An Feng went to the villa where Helian Xiao stayed at. The garden of the hotel villa was very big and after asking several people, An Feng finally found villa 1-106.

  When she reached the door, she saw that it was not completely shut and pressed the doorbell.

  After a while, and since nobody had come to open the door, she pushed open the door gently.

  “Is anybody in?”


  An Feng went in.

  There was nobody in the living room, so An Feng then went to the second floor.

  The bedroom door was closed. An Feng was about to knock when she heard Bernice’s coy voice. “Be gentler. It hurts.”


  Followed by Helian Xiao’s low and mellow voice. “You still have to endure it.”


  “Waa, you don’t treat girls nicely. Ah…… be gentler. It really hurts!”


  An Feng did not expect herself to come upon this scene when she came. Although the door was closed and she could not see what was happening inside, it must be……

  With rapidly reddening eyes, An Feng’s heart tightened and felt as cold as ice. Why…… Why was she feeling like this? She felt so miserable she almost could not breathe.

  She had to leave. Not wanting to ask about the gift anymore, she spun around so quickly she almost lost her balance. She didn’t want to listen to the intimate and passionate sounds, An Feng ran downstairs with big steps.

  She walked too fast and bumped into the green plant by the corridor.

  The sound of her bumping into the plant might have alarmed the man and woman inside the room. The door of the room was opened very quickly and Helian Xiao walked out.

  He frowned when he saw the slender figure disappearing around the corner of the stairs.

  Bernice who had injured her knee, also limped out and saw An Feng’s disappearing figure.

  “Did…… she misunderstand?” Bernice laughed. “Old Xiao, it seems like she does care about you!”


  Helian Xiao ignored Bernice and hurried down the stairs.

  When An Feng ran to the entrance of the villa, she slipped and fell. She scraped her elbow and bright red blood flowed out in thin streaks.

  An Feng could not tell whether the sharp pain that was spreading out from her heart was because of her wound or her heart……

  At this moment, she only wanted to get out of this uncomfortable place.

  But unfortunately, she twisted her ankle slightly and could not walk fast. The sound of the man’s footsteps sounded behind her.

  An Feng did not look back and saw the man’s tall figure from the corner of her eye.

  He did not immediately come over, but looked at her from a distance.

  An Feng was slightly panicked and confused.

  After walking for a distance, she suddenly realized that she was not going towards the entrance of the hotel, but was going to the back door.

  She turned a few times, but could not find a door.

  The man did not catch up.

  An Feng sat by a small pool, covering her face with her hands and gasped heavily.

  It was terrible, why did it seem like she had seen a beast when she looked at Helian Xiao?

  Didn’t she hate him?

  Didn’t she blame him for ruining her life?

  Why was she so miserable when she heard him making out with Bernice?

  She could not deny that with the passage of time and experience, the type of man she liked was different from when she was young. She also could not resist the charm of a mature man.

  An Feng realized with a flustered heart that she cared about Helian Xiao more than her hate towards him!

  If she continued to be in the same place with him, she would go crazy!

  She must leave quickly after Tang Ci’s wedding!

  Hearing footsteps behind her, An Feng put down her hands that were covering her face and raised her head slowly.

  Looking at the man who was approaching her, An Feng’s pupils constricted. She stood up, wanting to leave, but her there was a cramp in her calf.

  Ah! She fell haphazardly into the pool.

  Although the pool was not deep, her clothes were still soaked completely.

  Helian Xiao stood at the edge of the pool, looking at the drenched and bedraggled An Feng with a frown. “Am I such a ferocious beast to make you so afraid?”


  An Feng looked at the man looking down at her. His eyes were cold, with a trace of something that she did not understand hidden in their depths. She pursed her lips and tried to be calm. “My leg started to cramp, I didn’t fall on purpose to let you laugh at me.”


  “I don’t find it funny.” His expression was slightly cold.

  An Feng could see his unhappiness but did not know what he was unhappy about.

  Was it because she interrupted them?

  “You can leave the gift at the hotel’s front desk later. I’ll get it later.” After that, she got out of the pool, not wanting to talk to him anymore.

  Taking a deep breath, she walked past him.

  The man’s deep voice suddenly rang out from behind after she had walked a few steps. “Stop!”


  An Feng acted like she never heard him.

  Helian Xiao’s expression turned dark when he saw that instead of stopping, she walked even faster.

  Striding forward, he grabbed her wrist. An Feng wanted to shake him off, but she was unable to.

  “Let go!”


  Helian Xiao seemed to have not heard her. Reaching out his arms, he picked her up from the ground.

  An Feng only felt the world spinning and then she was already carried by him.

  She was very light and he carried her with no effort at all.

  Raising her eyes in a panic, they only met with Helian Xiao’s deep and dark ones. Her heart skipped a beat.

  “Mr Helian.”


  “Your leg is injured.” There was no expression on his handsome face. “When I came, Zhizhi told me to look after you.”


  An Feng’s eyes were slightly red and she struggled uneasily. “I can walk myself. Put me down, or else Bernice will misunderstand……”


  Helian Xiao’s dangerous eyes narrowed. “You’re only afraid of her misunderstanding?”


  As An Feng looked at his piercing gaze, she did not understand what he meant. Bernice was his new girlfriend and they even had an intimate relationship, was he not afraid she would misunderstand?

  Seeing An Feng’s lowered eyes and uneasy expression, Helian Xiao said coldly, “Don’t worry, I’ll only carry you back to the villa and get the gift for you.”


  In other words, he would not do anything inappropriate to her.

  When he did not smile, he was no longer elegant, but seemed cold and stern, as if he was a commanding leader who was giving out orders, making people afraid to say anything.

  Like this, An Feng was carried into the villa by him. And he continued to carry her up the stairs and to the master bedroom.

  An Feng thought of the intimate sounds she heard outside the master bedroom and she frowned. “I’ll just wait downstairs.”


  Helian Xiao put An Feng down and pointed to the suitcase inside the room. “The gift’s inside. Go get it yourself.”


  An Feng saw his slightly dark expression and did not say anything else. She limped towards one of the suitcases, unzipped it and opened the suitcase.

  There was no gift inside, only a box of condoms.

  “The other suitcase.”


  Embarrassed, An Feng quickly closed the suitcase with the box of condoms.

  Wait a second. Wasn’t he with Bernice earlier? Why was the box of condoms not opened?
