The heartless beauty is addicted to being licked by a seemingly obedient and loyal dog.

As he spoke, Lu Jinci's gaze swept over Shen Chonglu's bare foot, and he scoffed disdainfully:

"As for you, a nobody of dubious origin, if you know what's good for you, get lost now and don't force me to take action."

He was an extremely suspicious person, and the frustration he had felt during the day, combined with his anger at this moment, filled his hawk-like eyes with scrutiny.

At the same time, he suddenly remembered something. He took a half step forward, his tall shadow looming over Shen Chonglu, his voice low and dangerous: "However, I'm also very curious."

"In Beijing, there's no one whose background I, Lu Jinci, can't investigate. Yet, your background is as clean as a blank sheet of paper, which is the biggest problem in itself. What exactly are you plotting to huddle by Yunqi's side?"

Shen Chonglu met the other party's piercing gaze, his hands hanging at his sides unconsciously clenching into fists.

He certainly couldn't reveal his identity here.

"What problem could I possibly have?"

Shen Chonglu snorted coldly, forcefully suppressing the young master's temper in his chest, and a wild, almost rogue-like look appeared on his handsome face.

"I'm just an ordinary worker, making a living under Yunqi with my strength and labor, earning my money through hard work."

He took a step forward, his shoulder slamming into Lu Jinci's chest. The two equally tall bodies collided solidly, the air thick with tension.

"As for your talk of engagement, I'm not listening."

Shen Chonglu lowered his body slightly, like a lone wolf whose mate had been taken, his voice hoarse and provocative.

"Yunqi was in my bed and in my arms last night. What part of his body didn't I touch? Who do you think you are? Just a mistress who took advantage of my vulnerability and stole my man!"

"Let me tell you, Lu Jinci, forcing someone to marry you won't quench your thirst, it will kill you."

"You won't get away with this, I promise."

"court death!"

Lu Jinci was completely enraged by the words "last night in my bed". He clenched his fist and lunged straight at Shen Chonglu's throat.

Shen Chonglu was waiting for the other party to make a move.

He dodged to the side, his left hand gripping Lu Jinci's elbow, while his right fist slammed into Lu Jinci's abdomen with explosive force.

"Bang!"

The dull thuds of flesh colliding echoed in the room.

Lu Jinci gasped when he was hit, but he didn't back down. Instead, he used the pain to his advantage and pressed forward, using his other arm to tightly choke Shen Chonglu's neck. The two of them instantly wrestled in the narrow entrance hall.

The two mad dogs, their eyes bloodshot, completely abandoned any fighting techniques and were simply clashing head-on with their flesh and bones.

Lu Jinci was already injured, and he had drunk too much mixed liquor today, so his strength had been mostly used up in the struggle with Song Yunqi.

Shen Chonglu, on the other hand, was filled with jealousy with nowhere to vent it. His young body seemed to have inexhaustible brute strength. He walked barefoot on the broken glass, leaving glaring red marks of blood on the white tiles, but he was completely unaware of it.

With a solid and stable chassis, Shen Chonglu suddenly exerted force and slammed Lu Jinci into the wall.

With a crash, the decorative painting on the wall fell to the ground.

Lu Jinci felt a sharp pain in his back. Before he could react, Shen Chonglu kicked him in the abdomen.

"Well……"

Lu Jinci let out a painful groan, and uncontrollably knelt on one knee. The wound on his forehead completely split open, and blood seeped out along the edge of the bandage, blurring half of his eye.

Shen Chonglu, panting heavily, looked down at Lu Jinci, his fists covered in Lu Jinci's blood. Just as he was about to kick him again, a thud came from the direction of the bed.

With a sullen face, Song Yunqi casually slammed the remaining ashtray on the bedside table onto the floor, making a jarring, sharp sound.

"Stop it, all of you!"

The young man stood up, wrapped in a large coat, his hair still a little messy, but his expression was utterly cold: "If you want to fight, go outside and fight."

"Lu Jinci, if you want your father to come to the hotel to collect your body tomorrow, then keep lingering here."

Lu Jinci clutched his ribs, breathing heavily in pain, knowing that he was indeed at his last gasp.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his eye, stared at Song Yunqi's expressionless face, and then looked at Shen Chonglu, who stood with his arms crossed like a gatekeeper.

Given his current condition, he won't gain any advantage if he continues fighting.

"Fine, Song Yunqi, you win."

Lu Jinci gritted his teeth and stood up, his body trembling and hunched over from the pain. His sinister gaze swept over Shen Chonglu's face, and he sneered:

"Wild dog, I'll remember this grudge."

"One day, I'll make sure you don't even know how you died. Just you wait."

After uttering those harsh words, Lu Jinci spat out a mouthful of blood, clutched his throbbing side, and limped out of the dilapidated room.

As the footsteps faded into the distance, the room suddenly fell silent.

The fierceness that Shen Chonglu had been exuding vanished like a tide the moment Lu Jinci disappeared.

He stood frozen in place, his shoulders slumped, all the fierceness he had shown when he fought Lu Jinci to the death vanished. He turned to look at Song Yunxi, the blood still fresh in his eyes, but they quickly welled up with tears, threatening to spill over.

"You're engaged."

Shen Chonglu let out a muffled sob, his voice hoarse and filled with obvious grievance: "Such a big thing, and I've never even heard of it."

"You dumped me for such a jerk... Tonight, you even brought people to this hotel, this is where we first met..."

The young man took half a step forward, his soles bleeding crimson blood from the broken glass, leaving a glaring mark on the ground. He seemed oblivious, his gaze fixed on Song Yunxi's eyes, his voice trembling uncontrollably:

"Song Yunxi, what do you take me for?"

In fact, Song Yunqi breathed a sigh of relief the moment Shen Chonglu kicked the door open. He had been prepared to cripple Lu Jinci while both sides suffered heavy losses, and the other party's appearance did indeed save him from this predicament.

Before he could catch his breath, which was stained with blood, Shen Chonglu's interrogation, which sounded almost like he had been caught in adultery, made his face turn completely cold.

Song Yunqi clutched the collar of his coat tightly with one hand, hiding most of his neck, which bore red marks, in the shadows. He propped himself up and stood up, looking down at Shen Chonglu, his phoenix eyes filled with a cold, clear light:

"By what right do you dare to criticize me?"

His voice was still hoarse from the previous suffocation, but the words he spoke were as cold and ruthless as ice shards:

"Shen Chonglu, recognize your place."

"You were just a bed partner I paid to keep, and the contract was officially terminated this morning. Now you're at best a junior intern assistant at my company who hasn't been officially hired yet."

"Do I need to report to you who I take to a hotel room with, or who I get engaged to?"

"But I like you!"

Shen Chonglu was so moved by these words that tears streamed down his face, sliding down his cheeks to his chin and then falling to the ground with a "drip drip drip," making him look extremely miserable, but even more so, disheveled.

He took two steps forward without paying attention to anything else, his heavy breathing tinged with sobs: "I'm from a good family, I've never even been in a relationship before, I've given you my pure body, and my whole heart is tied to you."

"You can't just take advantage of someone and then shirk your responsibility..."

Seeing the tall man, standing at 1.9 meters, crying his heart out, Song Yunqi felt a slight pang in her heart, and was somewhat moved.

But that fleeting emotion was instantly extinguished by reason. He pursed his chapped lips and coldly rebuked:

"Shen Chonglu, you can't play this game."
