Mrs. Fu, please be mindful of the appropriate boundaries.

Xu Qingcheng pulled down her clothes, and as soon as her eyes were exposed, she saw the man bending over, pulling the zipper up from the hem of her clothes all the way to her mouth.

The clothes smelled of cigarettes and alcohol, as well as the chill of the night.

He was only wearing a pure black shirt, and when he looked up at her, his eyes were as black as the night and his clothes.

His car was parking in the parking space next to him, and a moment later a designated driver came over with the keys to him.

Fu Jingting put away the keys, grabbed her hand, and walked forward.

He took long strides, and Xu Qingcheng couldn't keep up for a moment. She stumbled and fell straight at him.

Her face bumped into his back, and she instinctively wrapped her arms around him. "Slow down."

Fu Jingting turned around, put his arm around her waist and lifted her up until she was steady. She wrinkled her nose and looked at him, "Did Song Xingzhi call you?"

He must have just gotten off from a social engagement.

"I'm coming back even if he doesn't call me."

She didn't loosen her grip on his waist, so he didn't move either.

The woman looked up at him, her eyes sparkling.

The weather is nice tonight, with a clear blue sky.

This man's waist is lean and strong, with a defined shape; it feels very safe to hug him.

Xu Qingcheng lowered her head, smiled, and released her hand.

"If you're going back, you shouldn't be coming back here." Her eyes flickered slightly, her face still flushed from the alcohol, and even though she was wrapped in his large coat, her charm was still undeniable.

Xu Qingcheng took the lead and walked forward.

I went inside.

Xu Qingcheng put down her bag and took off her coat, revealing her torn shirt lying open in front of her.

Fu Jingting narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling on her. "Song Xingzhi said you're hosting Zhuang Wei at the Royal City Club tonight?"

"It wasn't a banquet for him; he came uninvited." Xu Qingcheng bent down and took off her stockings, which had been worn out when she fell.

She crumpled it up and threw it directly into the trash can.

Her long, slender, and fair legs were exposed to the air, and under the light, they looked dazzlingly white.

The bruises on his knees were a bit too noticeable.

"Didn't you go to see Tang Xun?" Fu Jingting asked casually.

Xu Qingcheng paused for a moment before speaking, "Not yet. I originally wanted to find out the situation from the people below first."

Fu Jingting walked over and picked the woman up in his arms.

Xu Qingcheng was startled, wrapped her arms around his neck, and patted him, "What are you doing? You scared me."

She seemed both angry and annoyed, her voice soft and coquettish, as if she were flirting with him.

Fu Jingting looked down at her. The woman's eyebrows were curved, her smile as bright as the moon, and her fair skin contrasted with her flushed face, like cherry blossoms falling in March.

Even from such close proximity, she could clearly see his Adam's apple bobbing slightly.

At this moment, she just wanted to act cute with him. It wasn't intentional, but it was also intentional; she just wanted to act cute with him.

Even if this man's kindness to her was only sex and not love, she still wanted to be affectionate with him because it had been so long since anyone had properly hugged her and given her some warmth.

It wasn't that she didn't go to see Tang Xun; in fact, Tang Xun personally met with her. The low-key and composed man politely invited her to the reception room.

"Miss Xu, Jin Chao called me and told me your demands." Tang Xun cut to the chase. "May I ask, what is your relationship with Fu Jingting?"

Xu Qingcheng hadn't expected Tang Xun to be so direct. She remained silent, pondering how she should say it.

Tang Xun didn't seem to care how she answered, and said directly, "The Tang family and the Fu family are old friends. The elders have given me some advice. Jingting is currently in talks about a marriage, but it doesn't seem to be with Miss Xu."

This is quite clear; it's the Fu family elder speaking, and also a way of reminding her not to forget her promise.

Xu Qingcheng is so smart, how could she not understand?

She curled her fingers into her palm, and after a long while, she opened them. "I understand, Director Tang. Thank you for your trouble."

As she picked up her bag to leave, Tang Xun continued, "Jin Chao brought me Jing Ting's message, so I can't refuse to help, both morally and logically. What I can guarantee is that I will handle it impartially."

"That's enough."

Xu Qingcheng's eyes were blurry when she left. She herself had promised never to bother Fu Jingting again, but now, isn't this what they're like?!

Xu Qingcheng took a deep breath and buried her face in his shoulder. "I want to take a shower. Can you carry me there?"

Fu Jingting, "..."

He wasn't used to it.

Unable to resist, I asked her, "Did Zhuang Wei drug you?"

Xu Qingcheng couldn't help herself and pinched his chest with her fingers.

The man, in pain, stopped talking and carried her into the bathroom.

Xu Qingcheng turned on the shower, and the cold water sprayed directly onto the two of them. She shivered, laughed, and rushed into his arms, hugging him tightly.

She spun around, letting him shield her from the cold water, and nestled in his arms.

Fu Jingting's back was completely soaked with cold water. He glanced at the woman nestled in his arms and couldn't help but chuckle, "What's going on?"

The clothes weren't taken off and the water temperature wasn't adjusted.

Playing in the water?

Fu Jingting stepped back to adjust the water temperature, but still turned the showerhead in the opposite direction to avoid her.

The water temperature rose quickly.

Their clothes were both soaking wet and clinging to their bodies.

Fu Jingting reached out to take off her clothes, and she also reached out to unbutton his shirt.

The man's muscular chest and well-defined abdominal muscles were on full display.

There were also fingerprints she had accidentally made on it. She touched them with her finger and felt the muscles under her finger tighten.

Fu Jingting suddenly pinned her against the bathroom wall, grabbed her wrists, and raised her hands above her head. He braced one hand against the wall next to her ear, bent down to look at her closely.

He had already removed everything from her body except for her dress. As he stared at her like that, Xu Qingcheng felt a little shy and couldn't help but lean closer to him, trying not to let him look at her.

But her wrist was held in his grip, and she couldn't move.

Warm water splashed on him and then onto her.

She felt as if the water was electrified, and Xu Qingcheng pursed her lips, her face burning slightly.

She turned her eyes away and scolded him, "Stop looking. I was prepared. At most, he'll just tear my clothes. You're the one who did all this."

Fu Jingting raised an eyebrow. "I did it?"

Xu Qingcheng snorted, freeing her wrist from his grasp. Her fingers danced across his abs for a moment before she tugged at his belt, a seductive smile on her face. "Men's possessiveness is truly terrifying. It's a good thing I'm not your wife yet. You're better off finding a clean and tidy woman to hide at home, someone no one can see."

She simply pulled off his belt and suddenly said, "The person your grandmother has chosen can't be too bad."

Before Fu Jingting could process her sudden mention of the old lady, she grabbed one end of her belt and lashed it at him.

It wasn't a lot of force, but she raised her eyebrows and had that self-important look on her face.

Depend on!

Fu Jingting's forehead suddenly tensed up, and as she pulled back, he grabbed her belt and pulled her over.
