Roses in Flames

Xiao Lin looked at Ye Yuntang's legs, which were clad in denim shorts.

Her legs were fair, slender, long, and straight, with extremely beautiful lines.

Ye Yuntang noticed his dark, deep gaze. She glared at him and said, "What are you looking at? What I'm dressed like is perfectly normal, isn't it?"

She has a great figure, with a large bust and a slim waist, and is curvy in all the right places.

Most importantly, she is very fair-skinned, with delicate and smooth skin, like a peeled egg, without any blemishes.

Xiao Lin grabbed Ye Yuntang's wrist, flipped her over, and pinned her beneath him.

He braced himself against her side with his arms, his muscles smooth and firm, exuding a powerful masculine tension.

Ye Yuntang's heart skipped a beat as he pressed her down like that.

Why did you suddenly get angry the day you bought the swimsuit?

His voice was deep and husky, and his warm breath brushed against her face as he spoke.

It felt like a feather brushing against me, a tingling, numb sensation.

The two were very close together, her slender white legs pressed tightly against his strong and powerful legs.

She looked at his handsome, strong face, her long eyelashes trembling slightly. "I overheard your conversation with Bai Chuwei. You gave her the house you bought with all your hard work, so you must care about her a lot! Suddenly, I feel there's no need to flirt with you anymore. After all, Bai Chuwei was the third party in my previous marriage, and I don't want to get entangled with anyone related to her anymore."

Or to put it more bluntly, she couldn't accept always losing to that woman.

Before she completely falls for Xiao Lin, she should draw a clear line between them.

After spending a lot of time with Xiao Lin, she saw his masculine charm both at work and in private, and she couldn't guarantee that she would only be attracted to him physically and not emotionally.

"There are some things I can't explain to you right now, but my feelings for Bai Chuwei aren't what you think. I've never liked her."

Ye Yuntang blinked. "You don't like her?"

Xiao Lin gave a soft "hmm".

Ye Yuntang's beautiful eyes sparkled with a captivating allure. "So, who do you like?"

Xiao Lin's ears flushed red, his facial features tense. "I don't like anyone."

The two were very close. Ye Yuntang stared intently at the man, whose eyelashes were thick and long, and whose pupils were dark and captivatingly deep.

Ye Yuntang reached out and poked the man's hard chest with her finger. "You don't like anyone? Then why are you pinning me down like this?"

Xiao Lin didn't answer her. His dark eyes were fixed on her. "And you? Do you still have feelings for your ex-husband?"

Ye Yuntang kept rolling her eyes inwardly when Fu Shili was mentioned.

"Do you want to hear the truth?" She stared straight at him.

Xiao Lin pursed his thin lips and nodded, "Mm."

"I just hope that his future is bleak, that he fails at everything he does, that the women around him keep cheating on him, and that all the hurt I've caused him is reflected back at him."

"Infertility, but a house full of children and grandchildren, and never again come to disgust me by begging for a reconciliation."

After saying that, she couldn't help but laugh a few times, secretly pleased with herself.

Seeing the man in front of her staring intently at her with his dark eyes, she quickly covered her mouth again. "Was I too wicked?"

Although she no longer has any feelings for Fu Shili, she was still deeply hurt when she discovered his infidelity.

"Let bygones be bygones, and let's part amicably" are all hypocritical words. I'm just petty. I don't want the scumbag who hurt me to be happy.

Xiao Lin raised his long, slender fingers and brushed a strand of hair away from Ye Yuntang's cheek. "And you, you hooked me but didn't take responsibility. Aren't you a scumbag?"

Ye Yuntang glared at the man. "Our situations are different. Between adult men and women, it's all about sex, not feelings. Besides, you didn't lose out by sleeping with me, did you?"

Xiao Lin: "I'm at a disadvantage."

Ye Yuntang felt a lump in her throat from anger. "Where did you lose out?"

The man's thin lips pressed into a cold, hard curve; he remained silent.

"How about I let you sit here again?"

She tilted her head back and leaned in to kiss him with her red lips.

But the next second, the man dodged, and her red lips landed on his cheek.

Ye Yuntang's delicate eyebrows were furrowed, and she couldn't quite understand him.

"Xiao Lin, say something!"

The man didn't say anything; he simply lowered his head and kissed her.

He kissed her fiercely and harshly.

Ye Yuntang's lips and teeth went numb. She wanted to dodge, but he held the back of her head, making her unable to move.

She didn't even have a chance to catch her breath.

Ye Yuntang's bright face turned bright red.

Unable to push him away and struggling to breathe, she could only stare at him with wide eyes.

His eyes held a deep, dark emotion that made it impossible for her to fathom his thoughts.

She was a strong-willed person who refused to admit defeat. Even when his kisses made her uncomfortable, she wouldn't let him go.

She bit his thin lips just as fiercely.

She bit the corner of his lip until it bled.

They both tasted the blood in their mouths.

He finally released her, wiped his lips with his long fingers, and said in a low, husky voice, "Are you a dog?"

He was burning with desire and wanted to get off her, but the next second, her slender white legs wrapped around his strong waist.

He pressed himself against her again, his chest slamming into her there, and he cursed under his breath, "Damn! Doesn't it hurt?"

"Then will you rub it for me?"

She took his large hand and placed it there.

His voice was terribly hoarse. "Ye Yuntang, don't mistake me for a saint."

He pressed his large hand against her lower back and pulled her towards him.

Ye Yuntang seemed to sense something, and suddenly opened her eyes wide, instinctively wanting to dodge.

Xiao Lin kissed her beautiful face, his breath warm and hot.

His large hand slid from her waist down to the buttons of her denim shorts.

Just as the buttons were about to be undone, she suddenly felt a heat in her lower abdomen.

Oops!

My aunt arrived early.

Ye Yuntang raised her hands and pushed him away forcefully.

"Xiao Lin, I'm on my period."

He lowered his head, stared at her for a few seconds, and then released her.

Ye Yuntang quickly stood up from the sofa. Seeing that the sofa was clean, she said to him, "I'm going back now. You should rest well since your stomach isn't feeling well."

midnight.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared, and then a torrential downpour began.

Ye Yuntang woke up with a start, turned on the light, and felt somewhat lost.

Perhaps it was because she slept so soundly in Xiao Lin's arms during the last thunderstorm that she always thought of him during such times.

She got out of bed, carrying her pillow, and walked to the door of her apartment.

I'm torn. Should I open the door and go to him?

His stomach was already upset, and going to see him in the middle of the night would only make him feel worse.

Forget it, I'd better not bother him tonight.

Just as Ye Yuntang was about to return to her bedroom, her phone suddenly rang.

She glanced at the caller ID, and her heart skipped a beat.

It was a phone call from Xiao Lin.

Before she could answer the phone, a deep, magnetic male voice suddenly came from outside the door, "Open the door."

He was actually outside the door?

Ye Yuntang turned around and opened the door.

A tall, aloof man stood prominently at the doorway.

He looked at her with his deep, dark eyes. "It's thundering. Do you need me to sleep with you?"
