The flirtatious girl is done flirting; Mr. He is now obsessed with her.

Bai Yishu was pulled off the dance floor by He Yunshen and dragged to the sofa.

"Who gave you permission to dance with other people like that?"

Bai Yishu shook her head, trying to clear her mind.

"How could you...?"

"Are you surprised to see me?"

He Yunshen's tone suppressed his impending rage. He glanced at He Wanqing, who was hiding in the corner and snickering, and approached Bai Yishu through gritted teeth.

"If she hadn't called me, I wouldn't have known Miss Bai was having so much fun here!"

Bai Yishu glanced at He Wanqing resentfully, but the other woman, nestled on the sofa, raised an eyebrow at her.

That expression seemed to say: How about it? Aren't you a loyal friend?

Bai Yishu was on the verge of tears. When she met He Yun Shen's angry eyes, she became increasingly hesitant to speak.

"What's wrong with me... just playing around?"

He Yun Shen laughed in extreme anger, his emotions seemingly on the verge of exploding.

"You call dancing intimately with other men 'playing around'? Do you even know what you're doing?!"

I didn't do anything!

I might have the lust, but I don't have the guts!

Bai Yishu cried out in her heart, and as the alcohol took effect, she abruptly shook off He Yunshen's hand.

"What are you so angry about! We're not even dating!"

He Yun Shen's body stiffened for a moment, as if stung by her words, and his eyes became even more gloomy than before.

"So you can just mess around with other men?"

"I didn't do anything reckless!"

He Yun Shen didn't give her a chance to refute. He tightened his arms around her waist and pulled Bai Yi Shu into his arms with a little force. He lowered his head and kissed her red lips.

Everyone around was stunned. He Wanqing excitedly took out her phone, and after a few moments of hesitation, she took several photos of the two of them.

The kiss was filled with anger and punishment, ruthlessly stealing her breath until Bai Yishu could barely breathe, at which point He Yun Shen finally released her.

"Do you still think we have no relationship?"

Bai Yishu was now completely sober. The combination of the alcohol and the blush from kissing in public caused an undeniable surge of heat within her.

She just understood He Yun Shen less and less...

"What are you doing?"

He Yun Shen's eyes darkened, and he gently stroked Bai Yi Shu's lower lip with his fingertips.

"I'm telling you, you can't provoke me and then act all friendly with other people."

He noticed the stares from those around him, grabbed Bai Yishu's wrist, and headed out of the bar.

"Come with me!"

As He Yun Shen passed by He Wan Qing, he coldly uttered a single sentence.

You better pray I'm not angry.

He Wanqing shrank her neck, stuck out her tongue at He Yunshen, and watched them leave with a motherly smile.

Before Bai Yishu could resist, He Yunshen forced her head into the car.

She moved towards the seat until her body was pressed against the car door before stopping.

The street scene outside the window rushed past, and the carriage was deathly silent. Bai Yishu dared not look at him, and did not even dare to breathe.

The car stopped in front of a riverside villa, and He Yunshen grabbed Bai Yishu's wrist and pulled her out of the car.

"Bai Yishu, there are some things that need to be made clear."

He Yunshen pulled her into the villa, through the dimly lit living room, and brought her to a huge floor-to-ceiling window, pressing her against the cold glass.

The lights of the boats on the river slowly passed by, reflecting the madness and stubbornness surging in He Yunshen's eyes.

"What exactly do you want?"

He Yun Shen removed one hand from the glass, his fingertips lightly touching Bai Yi Shu's cheek, then slowly sliding towards her lips.

"Is it fun to flirt with me and then get entangled with someone else?"

"I don't……"

Bai Yishu wanted to explain what had just happened, but He Yunshen interrupted her.

"Still saying you don't?"

He Yun Shen closed his eyes, gave a self-deprecating twitch at the corner of his mouth, and when he opened them again, a trace of pain that he himself did not notice flashed in his eyes.

"When I saw you dancing with that man, I really wanted to..."

He didn't say anything more, but pulled Bai Yishu into a tight embrace, his slightly rapid breaths spraying onto her neck.

Bai Yishu was pressed against the glass from behind, while He Yun Shen held her tightly in front of her, leaving her no room to breathe.

"Let me go."

She tried to move her arm, but He Yun Shen held her even tighter in his arms.

"I won't let go..."

"Bai Yishu, I won't let go..."

He Yun Shen raised his head, his eyes bloodshot at some point, his gaze revealing a vulnerability she had never seen before.

Bai Yishu felt a tremor in her heart, and a dense wave of heartache spread throughout her body.

She wanted to reach out and brush away the slightly messy strands of hair on He Yun Shen's forehead, but her rationality returned in the next second.

"What are we...?"

Upon hearing this, He Yun Shen froze on the spot, his hands unconsciously releasing Bai Yi Shu's grip. He took a step back, his expression unusually bewildered and helpless.

"What...are we?"

He Yun Shen's expression lasted only a second before he adopted a tough stance.

"In short, you're not allowed to go see anyone else!"

"Why should I?!"

Bai Yishu straightened up and took a step forward to approach He Yunshen.

"Just because I am He Yun Shen, and because you provoked me, you have to take responsibility!"

Bai Yishu took another step forward, her eyes fixed on He Yunshen, stubbornly wanting to hear the answer she wanted from him.

"I want to hear the truth."

"The truth..."

He Yun Shen's body trembled slightly, his hands hanging at his sides clenched into fists, and he turned his face away unnaturally.

"...Okay, because I don't want to see you with other men. I'll be insanely jealous, I'll fucking lose control!"

He Yun Shen clenched his fists, his voice momentarily losing control, but quickly regaining its composure.

Are you satisfied now?

Bai Yishu bit her lower lip tightly, her resentment growing stronger.

"You know this isn't the truth I want."

"So what exactly do you want to hear?!"

He Yun Shen suddenly looked up, his jaw clenched, and the bloodshot in his eyes seemed to sink deeper with the pain.

"Do you expect me to say 'I love you'? Bai Yishu, do you think someone like me could say such a thing?!"

"Why can't you say it?"

Bai Yishu grasped He Yunshen's wrists with both hands and looked up at his expression, which seemed to be distorted by suppressed emotions.

Don't you want me?

A struggle flashed in He Yun Shen's eyes, but he turned his head away to avoid her gaze after a moment.

"It's not a question of whether you want it or not."

Bai Yishu's eyes gradually reddened, but she still reached out and gently stroked He Yunshen's cheek.

"If you just say you love me... then we'll be together, okay?"

He Yun Shen's body tensed instantly, and his breathing became erratic at her touch, but he only grabbed Bai Yi Shu's wrist to stop her.

"Don't push me."

Tears blurred the figure in Bai Yishu's eyes, and her voice choked with sobs, filled with a desperate plea.

"Is this difficult?"

Seeing Bai Yishu like this, He Yunshen felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on his heart, making him feel unbearably bitter.

But those three words were stuck in his throat, he couldn't spit them out or swallow them down.

"Bai Yishu, I..."

The lights on the opposite bank went out, plunging the entire river into complete darkness.

The light in Bai Yishu's eyes dimmed, and all her expectations crumbled in an instant, leaving only boundless disappointment.

"I'm sorry, I've put you in a difficult position."
