Is my roommate a caged bird? I'm stealing her away.

Her lower lip was pinched, and Zhou Suisui immediately fell silent, staring wide-eyed at Chen Boxu. What's wrong with him now!

Only after he released her hand and turned his gaze away did she seem to realize what was happening. She immediately composed herself and became unusually obedient.

She gently tugged at his sleeve, her voice soft and gentle, with a hint of cautious flattery:

"I'm not making a fuss anymore."

She paused, then leaned closer, almost whispering in his ear, and added softly, her tone carrying a hint of shyness and anticipation:

"Tell me tonight...we...after we're done...you can tell me slowly, okay?"

Chen Boxu listened to the soft, gentle voice in his ear, which was filled with flattery and expectation, and hummed in response.

The voice was low and short, almost drowned out by the laughter and conversation in the tea room.

But that "hmm" clearly reached Zhou Suisui's ears.

"A repressed pervert!" That was the only word on her mind right now.

It was nearly midnight when the teahouse ended, and everyone said their goodbyes. Chen Boxu was pulled aside by Old Wu, who whispered something to him. Zhou Suisui tactfully went to wait in the outer corridor of the teahouse.

The corridor was empty and quiet. She leaned against the wall, looking down at her phone with a hint of boredom. After waiting for a while and still not seeing Chen Boxu come out, she casually strolled along the corridor, her high heels making almost no sound on the thick carpet.

After turning a corner, two figures were entangled together next to the green indicator light of the emergency exit ahead.

It's Su Wei and Xu Shao.

Zhou Suisui paused, instinctively held her breath, and hid in the shadows beside her.

The two were passionately kissing. Xu Shao pinned Su Wei against the wall, kissing her intensely and urgently, one hand kneading her lower back forcefully, the other tearing open the front of her clothes.

Su Wei tilted her head back and endured it, her arms tightly wrapped around Xu Shao's neck, letting out intermittent sobs.

Zhou Suisui's eyes widened in shock. Holy crap! This is too much! They made such a scene at the card table and the restaurant earlier.

Xu Shao even brought newcomers to embarrass them in public, and now they've all come together again... She really doesn't understand what these people are doing.

"Surprised?"

A deep male voice suddenly rang out from very close behind.

Zhou Suisui trembled with fright and almost screamed. She turned around abruptly, her back slamming heavily against the wall, and saw who it was.

Wu Yang was standing behind her, so close he was almost touching her. He looked down at her still-shaken face, a mocking smile playing on his lips.

"You... what are you doing here?" Zhou Suisui asked in a low voice, her heart pounding.

Wu Yang didn't answer the question, but simply gestured with his chin towards the two people over there:

"See? This is her usual tactic. Young Master Xu usually falls for it, but this time it's going to be tough."

Just then, Xu Shao suddenly shoved Su Wei away.

Su Wei stumbled as she was pushed, her back hitting the wall with a dull thud. Her clothes were disheveled, large swathes of her chest exposed in the dim light, and her face still bore the lingering scent of desire.

Xu Shao's voice was icy, filled with undisguised disgust: "Disgusting. When you're spreading your legs wide open for others, why don't you think about these things?"

Su Wei's face was deathly pale, her lips trembling as she tried to approach again: "I didn't... please let me explain..."

"An explanation?" Xu Shao sneered. "Explain why you were pretending to be so affectionate with me while you were flirting with Wu Yang? Or explain why you plan to seduce every man in the industry?"

"I didn't! It was him..."

"I don't believe it," Xu Shao interrupted her, his tone resolute.

He straightened his disheveled shirt collar, gave Su Wei a sinister look, and turned to leave the corner.

He walked in the direction that led to the shadows where Zhou Suisui and Wu Yang were hiding.

Wu Yang's eyes sharpened, and he reacted swiftly. He grabbed Zhou Suisui's wrist and, before she could react, pushed open a half-open door to a private room next to them, pulled her inside, and locked the door behind him.

The lights in the private room were off, only light filtering in from the window. A faint smell of cleaning agents filled the air. Zhou Suisui leaned against the cold door, and Wu Yang stood right in front of her, so close they could feel each other's breath.

Outside, Xu Shao's voice came through indistinctly: "...I feel nauseous just looking at your underhanded tricks."

Su Wei's tearful explanation was muffled by the door.

Zhou Suisui's heart pounded like a drum. She looked at Wu Yang, who was backlit, his face expressionless.

Holy crap! He's even more handsome up close!

"Why did you pull me in here?" she asked, her voice tense.

Wu Yang didn't speak. He suddenly reached out and brushed his thumb against her lower lip. The movement was light, yet carried an undeniable force.

Then he lowered his head and kissed her.

The kiss came quickly and urgently, carrying the smell of tobacco and a fierce, predatory feeling.

Zhou Suisui froze for a moment, curling her fingers against his chest, but didn't actually push him away.

Perhaps it was the intense conflict he had just witnessed, or perhaps it was the lingering ambiguous atmosphere in the private room, or perhaps... it was simply because his kissing skills were too good.

Wu Yang's hand slipped inside her clothes, his palm burning hot, caressing the delicate skin of her waist, then moving upwards. Zhou Suisui took a soft breath, her fingertips tightening around his shirt.

His kiss moved to her ear, his voice low and warm: "Now you know... what kind of person I am?"

Zhou Suisui's limited dating experience was completely inadequate for the current situation. She knew she should push him away, scold him, and show him that she was already taken.

Her eyelashes trembled violently. She wanted to say something, but he sealed her lips with his again. His fingers parted hers…

The force was considerable, carrying a sense of punishment. She groaned softly, her body going limp slightly.

Just as my reason was about to collapse.

Suddenly, clear footsteps came from the corridor outside the door, approaching from afar. Zhou Suisui froze.

Wu Yang paused, his heavy breathing pressing against her forehead. A few seconds later, he restrained himself and released his grip, taking a step back to create a dangerous distance between them.

The sound of footsteps passed by the door and gradually faded into the distance.

In the dim light, the two stared at each other silently. Zhou Suisui's chest heaved, her lips were slightly swollen, and her clothes were somewhat disheveled. Wu Yang raised his hand and heavily wiped his lower lip with his fingertip, his eyes so dark that his emotions were unreadable.

What should she do? What should she do? Should she tell him to forget everything that happened today? Should she pretend to be experienced and turn away? Zhou Suisui's mind was in turmoil.

He looked at her, said nothing, and turned to open the door to the private room.

Light streamed in from the corridor. Wu Yang stepped aside to let her go first. Zhou Suisui hesitated for a moment, then said softly, "You go first."

Wu Yang glanced at her, said nothing, and walked out first, his figure quickly disappearing around the corner of the corridor.

Finally gone! Oh my god, what should she do now! Her mind was filled with the kiss from just now, and she felt that he must be very experienced! Zhou Suisui bit her lip indignantly.

Damn! These unclean men.

She stood in the private room for half a minute, waiting for her heartbeat and breathing to completely calm down, before fixing her hair and clothes in front of the mirror in her handbag.

The reflection in the mirror showed her cheeks still flushed, her lips slightly swollen, and her eyes still glistening with tears.

She slapped her face hard, took a few deep breaths, and then opened the door and walked towards the tea room.

Suddenly, she saw Su Wei leaning against the wall across the corridor, arms crossed, looking at her coldly.

Su Wei's clothes had been straightened, but her hair was still a little messy, her makeup was smudged, and her eyes were red.

She looked somewhat disheveled, but her eyes were as sharp as knives. Zhou Suisui stopped in her tracks.

Su Wei twitched the corners of her mouth, her voice low but carrying a confident sarcasm: "I knew it was you."
