Deep Fog Kiss

Chapter 36 Hold Me, Okay?

With a "click," the door unlocked.

Jiang Li hung up the phone quickly before she could say anything.

Because of the anesthetic, her limbs were still weak and powerless. She barely managed to support herself and quietly slipped into the wardrobe before the people at the door entered the room.

The door opened, and a strong smell of alcohol wafted out.

Through the gap in the wardrobe, Jiang Li frowned slightly.

Tang Lin reeked of alcohol and was so drunk he was completely disoriented. He staggered straight toward the bed.

"I heard there are...beautiful women here."

He mumbled something with a thick tongue and then plopped down on the bed.

Jiang Li felt a throbbing sensation in her temple.

If she hadn't been smart, she would have really gotten away with Tang Lin, that rotten cucumber, at this moment.

The person on the bed made no extra movements, seemingly drunk and unconscious.

Jiang Li supported herself and gently opened the wardrobe. She tiptoed to the door.

The door was half-closed, not yet shut.

Her heart was pounding. She glanced at the person who hadn't moved on the bed, then strode towards the door.

"who!"

The person on the bed suddenly looked up and cautiously glanced towards the door.

Jiang Li was startled and quickly opened the door and ran out.

A slender and graceful figure flashed in Tang Lin's drunken eyes.

She's a woman, and she has a pretty good figure.

"Why the hell are you running away!"

Tang Lin roared in dissatisfaction.

He was in a bad mood today. He was threatened by Jiang Li to break off the engagement, scolded by his parents, and had a headache from being pestered by Wang Qiqi.

He finally managed to escape and find some fun, but the woman who went to his room ran away!

It's like everyone's trying to annoy him!

"You fucking get back here!"

He immediately scrambled off the bed and staggered toward the door.

Hearing Tang Lin cursing behind her, Jiang Li's heart raced, and she ran to the elevator in one breath.

The elevator lights came on, and the elevator was slowly descending.

The footsteps behind her grew clearer, and Jiang Li quickly pressed the elevator button.

"Hey! You try running again, you son of a bitch!"

Tang Lin's furious roar came from the doorway, echoing through the silent corridor.

Just then, the elevator stopped, and the doors slowly slid open to both sides.

As the chilling aura rushed towards her, the familiar scent of cold wood also quietly wafted over, mixed with a faint and mellow aroma of alcohol, causing Jiang Li to shiver all over.

She looked up abruptly, her panicked eyes meeting the tall figure of the man.

The man stood in the center of the sedan chair, wearing a pristine white shirt that perfectly covered his tall and strong figure.

The black armbands obediently bound his strong arms, and the smooth curves of his upper arm muscles could be vaguely seen.

The sleeves were rolled up to the forearms, and beneath the pale skin, the veins bulged out with great strength and tension.

The shirt collar was meticulously buttoned at the top, the black tie hung down neatly, and the muscles of his chest were clearly visible.

The shirt hem was tucked into a black leather belt, highlighting a narrow waistline.

He braced his hands on either side of the guardrail behind him, clutching an expensive black coat, exuding an air of aloofness and languor.

Jiang Li stared straight at the other person, her eyes filled with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long, shapely legs!

A goddess of sexy hormones, yet brimming with a sense of abstinence!

Jiang Li felt a surge of heat in her throat as she looked at the scene, and her breath hitched.

Gu Zhishen was about to exit the elevator when he was suddenly embraced by a soft, delicate body.

At that moment, Tang Lin's voice, reeking of alcohol and filled with exasperation, came from outside the elevator.

"You fucking trying to run away! You're already in my room, what are you doing running away from here?!"

Jiang Li's slender back suddenly stiffened, and she gripped Gu Zhishen's shirt with both hands, burying her face in his chest.

"Gu Zhishen!"

She whispered in a low voice, her voice trembling.

Gu Zhishen looked down at her guilty and frightened expression, as if she had done something shameful.

His gaze fell on her shoulder, which was hooked with a thin bra strap. With a wave of his hand, he draped the black coat over her head, enveloping her body.

Tang Lin staggered over, intending to rush into the elevator and pull the woman back, but he froze as soon as he reached the door.

His drunken eyes finally caught sight of the man's face, and he instantly sobered up considerably.

"Mr. Gu?"

He rubbed his drunken eyes as if in disbelief, and the man's cold and stern face in the sedan chair became clearer.

Who else could this be but Master Gu, the one who stands at the very top of the Beijing social circle!

Even if the Tang family doesn't have the ability or opportunity to climb up to the Gu family in business dealings, Gu Zhishen is a big shot in Beijing's social circles, and everyone wants to curry favor with him.

The man in the elevator coldly glanced over, his eyes like the deep sea, and a suffocating sense of oppression filled the air.

"Mr. Gu, you're here too?"

Tang Lin felt as if someone had grabbed his neck, his breathing became labored, and he quickly took two steps back, not daring to block the Buddha's path.

He then cautiously glanced at the woman in Gu Zhishen's arms. The woman was leaning softly against the man's chest, her figure and face hidden by a black coat.

But when he saw the man's strong arms tightly wrapped around the woman's slender waist, he knew that this woman was not someone he could afford to mess with.

He was puzzled as to why Gu Zhishen's woman had run out of his room.

Did I go to the wrong room?

That shouldn't be the case.

"What's your name?"

Gu Zhishen's cold eyes looked at the man outside the elevator, his voice revealing no emotion.

"Tang, Tang Lin!" Tang Lin quickly reacted and said respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Gu. My father's name is Tang Yi, the Tang Yi of Tang's Real Estate."

Upon hearing this, Gu Zhishen glanced mockingly at the woman in his arms, whose ears were burning red beneath his oversized suit jacket.

Tang Lin, her fiancé.

A complete glutton.

They haven't broken off the engagement yet.

Gu Zhishen remained silent, his gaze sweeping over the elevator buttons.

Tang Lin immediately realized what was happening, abandoning his arrogant attitude as a rich second-generation heir, and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Gu, which floor are you going to?"

"The top floor."

Tang Lin immediately pressed the button for the top floor and quickly exited the elevator car.

"Take care."

The elevator doors slowly closed, and the elevator began to ascend.

Tang Lin straightened up, his mind filled with doubt as the smell of alcohol dissipated.

Why does the woman in Mr. Gu's arms look so familiar?

I feel like I've seen this somewhere before.

......

The elevator slowly ascended, and in the cramped space, the scents of cool wood and orange mingled together, along with a hint of chilling alcohol.

Jiang Li leaned against the man's chest. Through the thin fabric of his shirt, the man's burning body temperature scalded her cheeks and made her heart pound wildly.

The oversized suit jacket clung to her body, and her nostrils were filled with the cold, masculine scent of the man.

It's reassuring, and it's also captivating.

Only when she was huddled in the shadows beneath his coat did she dare to breathe in his scent without restraint.

Suddenly, her coat was pulled down, and in the bright light, the man's amber eyes met her shimmering gaze.

"Did you drink too much?"

Gu Zhishen's voice fell above her, his emotions unreadable.

Just as Jiang Li was about to nod, the man's cold and refined features suddenly magnified in front of her.

They were so close, yet their breaths mingled.

Jiang Li's breath hitched, and her almond-shaped eyes opened slightly.

Her sweet scent enveloped the man's nose, and Gu Zhishen's lips curved slightly, his long, narrow eyes filled with amusement.

"What kind of alcohol did you drink? Plain liquor?"

His clear voice made Jiang Li suddenly realize that she didn't smell of alcohol. Gu Zhishen was so smart that he could tell as soon as he smelled it.

If I had known, she should have spilled some red wine on herself.

Gu Zhishen was about to loosen his grip on her waist when Jiang Li suddenly clutched his shirt tightly, "...I can't stand up."

Her voice was soft and delicate, and her breathing was slightly rapid.

Gu Zhishen held her slender waist and raised an eyebrow to ask.

"It's not alcohol," Jiang Li said, her body going limp. "It's medicine."

Her legs went weak, and she leaned into Gu Zhishen's arms.

"Hold me." She looked up, her eyes brimming with tears. "Please?"
