At the Pinnacle of Power: The Female Leader and Her Chief Advisor

Before Su Ran could speak, Lu Ming interjected, "I'm her friend, and you're her boyfriend, right? You're quite the handsome man."

The man was taken aback, a little embarrassed by the compliment, and said, "No, I'm not your boyfriend yet, I'm just pursuing you... Hey, Ranran, why are you leaving..."

Su Ran walked to Lu Ming's car with a dark expression, wanting to get in, but the car door was locked tightly.

"Open the door!"

Su Ran roared.

Lu Ming pressed the car key to unlock it, looked at the man somewhat awkwardly, and said, "Don't be discouraged, buddy. I'll put in a good word for you later."

The man said excitedly, "Thank you, brother!"

He stuffed the flowers in his hand into Lu Ming's arms and said, "Brother, actually Ranran doesn't like me being so persistent."

"But I really had no other choice. If I didn't do this, I wouldn't be able to see her at all."

"Could you please deliver these flowers to her for me, and also try to appease her and make her stop being angry?"

Lu Ming readily agreed: "Don't worry, buddy, I've got it covered."

After Lu Ming got into the car, he handed the flowers to Su Ran and said, "These are from your future boyfriend."

He started the car, and after driving less than a hundred meters, Su Ran rolled down the window and threw the entire flower out.

Lu Ming wanted to say something more, but when he saw Su Ran's unusually pale face, he swallowed his words.

After driving for a while, Lu Ming suddenly heard sobbing.

Turning his head, he saw that Su Ran had been crying her eyes out, which made Lu Ming feel very guilty.

"Su Ran, I..."

"Lu Ming, what's the point? Even if you don't like me, there's no need to push me away!"

"I……"

Lu Ming opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.

He wanted to wait until he got back to properly explain and apologize to Su Ran.

As soon as the car entered the residential area and stopped, Su Ran unbuckled her seatbelt and walked away without looking back.

Lu Ming was worried that something might happen to her in this state, so he hurriedly followed her.

Following him home, Su Ran opened the door and unexpectedly turned around and threw herself into Lu Ming's arms, bursting into tears.

Her face was covered in tears as she kissed Lu Ming frantically.

Lu Ming struggled internally, but ultimately did not push her away.

He patted Su's back gently and comforted her softly, "You're tired, get some rest."

"I don't want to rest!"

Su Ran yelled and dragged Lu Ming into the house.

The room was dark and the living room was completely dark, clearly indicating that Su Ran usually lived there alone.

She stared into Lu Ming's eyes and said, word by word, "Do you like me or not?"

Lu Ming let out a long sigh and gave a vague answer: "Su Ran, we haven't even known each other for a month. If I said I liked you, then I would just be a scumbag who lusts after your body."

Su Ran bit her lip and looked at Lu Ming, stubbornly saying, "I don't care. If you want me, I'll give myself to you right now!"

Having said that…

Although he couldn't see clearly in the darkness, Lu Ming could still feel it clearly.

"Su Ran, don't be impulsive."

Lu Ming fumbled to help her put on her underwear, but his attempt backfired.

"I'm perfectly sober right now!"

"I just want to hear you say it yourself: do you hate me or not?"

Lu Ming sighed: "How could I possibly hate you?"

Su Ran questioned again, "Then why did you push me away?"

"I am a person, not an object!"

Do you know that person from earlier?

"Do you know if he's truly in love with me or if he's just after my body?"

"You know nothing, you're just trying to push me away!"

"Did you really consider my feelings when you did this?"

Lu Ming was speechless. After a moment of silence, he said, "Put your clothes on first, then we'll turn on the lights and talk."

Su Ran sobbed, "No, I've already ruined my makeup with crying, I must look awful now."

Lu Ming couldn't persuade her otherwise, and said earnestly, "I don't mean to push you away, but it's too dangerous for me to be around, and I don't want to drag you down with me..."

Lu Ming stopped hiding his worries and revealed them all.

"So...you're worried about me?"

"Um."

After learning about Lu Ming's predicament, Su Ran's mood instantly brightened.

Although Lu Ming doesn't have romantic feelings for her yet, at least he doesn't dislike her.

Su Ran believed that as long as she persisted, one day she would make Lu Ming fall in love with her.

"Brother Lu Ming, I'm not afraid."

"You're not afraid, but I am."

"Then...then I'll try my best to meet you secretly in the future."

The young lady has already put it this way, so it would be too hurtful for Lu Ming to keep making excuses.

"Alright, now that we've talked things out, I'll head back... hiss!"

Lu Ming gasped sharply.

"come out!"

"Brother Lu Ming, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Su Ran's voice trembled, clearly indicating that she was also very nervous.

"Brother Lu Ming, my mom told me that feelings can be cultivated."

"Please let me try, okay?"

Seeing that Lu Ming did not refuse her, Su Ran then...

Lu Ming was as if petrified.

Gradually, his breathing became heavy.

An impulse suddenly arose in his heart.

Fortunately, he exercised perfect self-control.

"Brother Lu Ming, you can actually touch me too."

"Forehead?"

"Don't you want to?"

Su Ran's voice was plaintive, as if Lu Ming's gentlemanly behavior was a serious desecration of her charm.

Regardless of whether Lu Ming wanted to or not, she grabbed his hand and...

"Brother Lu Ming, actually... I don't mind..."

The power of this statement is comparable to that of a top-grade aphrodisiac.

After taking a deep breath, Lu Ming no longer hesitated.

A soft, melodious sound drifted out.

At the same time, Su Ran... and Lu Ming were also breathing...

"Brother Lu Ming, I... want to..."

She was too shy to say it aloud, but she showed Lu Ming her thoughts through her actions.

She took Lu Ming's hand and led him to...

Lu Ming instantly felt that all his efforts had been in vain at this moment.

He used force.

Su Ran was excited and quickly took off her clothes...

Just when she thought everything was going smoothly and tonight was destined to be wonderful, Lu Ming forcibly pushed her away...
