Young Master Gao? Call me Little Grand Secretary!

The girl let out a gasp, and Gao Zhao quickly covered her mouth, looking at the girl's terrified eyes with great displeasure.

The atmosphere was so nice just now, and you had to shout at this moment. It's such a mood killer!

He could only look at her sincerely and speak gently to comfort her, "Young lady, don't be afraid. I'm not a bad person. I'm here to save you today."

The girl's eyelashes trembled, and tears welled up in her eyes, sliding down her cheeks like dewdrops on flower petals, making her look pitiful.

She shook her head timidly, her eyes filled with fear. She tilted her neck back slightly, trying to break free from Gao Zhao's embrace, but it was all in vain.

Gao Zhao gave a kind smile and said softly, "Just now at the back gate of your residence, I encountered a ruffian who was about to commit a heinous crime, so I knocked him unconscious with a stick. I was just about to take him to Kaifeng Prefecture when your maidservant welcomed me in..."

At this point, Gao Zhao paused slightly, and the girl's eyes immediately filled with panic.

The person who was knocked unconscious was undoubtedly Wang Qing, who had come to keep the appointment. The maid had clearly mistaken him for Wang Qing and welcomed him in.

Could this person really be a good Samaritan?

The moment the thought crossed her mind, the girl couldn't help but curse inwardly. What kind of good man would come to a woman's boudoir and, without saying a word, start hugging and embracing her?

This guy must be a lecherous rogue!

The girl blushed again as she recalled the scene of his advances, and a tingling sensation ran through the places where he had hugged and caressed her...

She shyly raised her eyes to glance at the man, only to meet his ambiguous smile. Her heart skipped a beat as she suddenly remembered something: since this man had knocked Wang Qing unconscious and come here, didn't he also know about her secret rendezvous with Wang Qing...?

In an instant, she understood the meaning behind the smile on the boy's face as he held her!

Is he blackmailing me?

Gao Zhao, observing her changing expression, smiled slightly and said, "It seems you've finally figured it out, young lady!"

He then released his grip, helped the girl up, and sat her on the edge of the bed.

The girl let out two soft gasps, glancing at him furtively, a hint of worry in her heart.

Growing up in such a family, she was naturally already engaged at her age.

She had only heard that her future husband, despite his illustrious family background, was a simple-minded man.

Upon hearing this news, she was naturally unwilling, but weddings have always been arranged by parents and matchmakers, so how could she have the final say?

Feeling depressed, she went to Wansui Mountain a few days ago. There she happened to see Wang Qing staring at her intently. His gaze made her feel hot all over. Seeing that Wang Qing was handsome, she began to have feelings for him.

After returning from the Dongyue Temple, she intentionally or unintentionally inquired about Wang Qing's whereabouts. Such thoughts could not be hidden from her maid, so she gave her this idea: to conspire with Granny Xue to arrange a meeting with Wang Qing tonight.

After receiving the news, she waited all night, feeling both shy and timid, her heart pounding with anxiety and agonizing!

Unexpectedly, at the last moment, something went wrong, and the wrong person was mistaken. More importantly, this person found out about her secret rendezvous with her lover!

She couldn't help but glance at Gao Zhao again, and found that he was actually quite handsome. In her panic earlier, she hadn't looked closely, especially since she had felt his well-defined body while lying in his arms, which suggested that he must be very strong...

Suddenly, she remembered the man's frivolous behavior earlier, and felt a mixture of pleasure and shame. It seemed this man wasn't so bad after all…

Just as her thoughts were in turmoil, she suddenly felt a chill. Looking down, she discovered that all her clothes had been removed without her noticing. She hurriedly covered her chest and exclaimed again, "Where are my clothes?!"

……

"Hey, wake up... wake up..."

Gao Zhao opened his eyes sleepily and saw the girl curled up in his arms like a little white lamb, gently pushing him with her fair little hands.

"What's wrong? Want it again?" Gao Zhao tightened his arms, holding her even closer, burying his face in her hair and taking a deep sniff. This woman looked slender, but she was quite well-endowed. She was soft and comfortable to hold, truly a woman of voluptuous beauty.

Upon hearing Gao Zhao's words, the girl trembled slightly, recalling the enchanting scene from the previous night. Her pretty face flushed red, her long eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly raised her face, which was covered with crimson tear stains.

This appearance only made Gao Zhaoxing happy; she looked so weak and frail that she seemed easy to bully.

The girl suddenly sensed something was wrong and cried out in alarm, "No, it hurts..."

Seeing that her expression didn't seem feigned, and that she wasn't playing hard to get, Gao Zhao said unhappily, "If you don't want to, why did you wake me up?"

The girl, both shy and embarrassed, looked up at the man's profile and stammered, "It's getting late, you should go... otherwise, if someone sees us... it'll be a disaster!"

"Oh...so they're kicking me out!" Gao Zhao peeked at the water clock in the corner, knowing it was indeed time to leave. He got out of bed, picked up his clothes from the floor, and calmly began to dress, shaking his head and sighing as he did so: "After enjoying yourself, they kick me out. Woman, your name is heartless!"

"No..." The girl felt a pang of shame at his words, yet also a strange, soft ache in her heart. Gazing at his tall figure, a sense of reluctance rose within her. She timidly asked, "You... you're leaving already... will you... come back again?"

Gao Zhao turned around at the sound, his gaze falling on her shy and timid face.

The girl's face was as red as a peach blossom, her ears and neck were flushed, and she clutched the quilt helplessly, her eyes darting around and looking away. She looked exactly like someone who was just beginning to fall in love and whose heart had been captivated.

His heart skipped a beat. He leaned down, a smirk playing on his lips, and said, "What? You've got a taste for it now?"

The girl felt a surge of embarrassment and panic. She lowered her head, her eyelashes trembling, and stammered, "Don't be so rude when you speak..."

"Hehe..." Gao Zhao reached out and placed his hand on her chest, whispering with a chuckle in her ear, "Your heart is beating so fast, I thought you liked it!"

The girl felt both shy and itchy, but her limbs were so weak that she had no strength to break free. She wanted to explain, but when she opened her mouth, she let out a groan, which made her even more ashamed and her heart tremble.

Just then, Gao Zhao suddenly straightened up and said calmly, "We've only met by chance, let's leave it to fate!"

"Ah!" The girl panicked and couldn't help but look up at him, saying dejectedly, "You're not going to care about me anymore?"

"I'm a very solitary person, and I don't like sharing my favorite things with others!" Gao Zhao raised an eyebrow and said, "Besides, the person you're looking for isn't me!"

"I...I promise I won't see Wang Qing!" the girl said urgently, her eyes slightly red, her watery eyes fixed on Gao Zhao, full of fear and pleading.

Last night's secret rendezvous with Wang Qing was originally a rash thought born of frustration with her engagement and a moment of confusion. But ever since he broke into her boudoir and took her virginity, all her previous thoughts have vanished.

Compared to the suave and unrestrained Wang Qing, the domineering yet noble young man before her was clearly more to her liking.

Gao Zhao looked down at her flushed face, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes. His tone was indifferent: "Words are no proof. How about this: Wang Qing is still tied up at the back gate. If you send him to Kaifeng Prefecture, I'll believe you!"

"Okay!" The girl agreed almost without hesitation.

Gao Zhao smiled slightly, turned to look at the scattered plum blossoms on the bed sheet, raised an eyebrow and said, "This is my trophy. Keep it safe, I want to see it next time I come!"

The girl lowered her head shyly, and after a long while, she softly hummed in agreement.

Gao Zhao was captivated by her shy demeanor, but after checking the time, he resolutely left!

Another day of self-discipline!
