Lì n, this spoiled young master, has always had the bad habit of fancying expensive things; he likes whatever is rare and precious. The items in his room are never cheap, especially the porcelain pieces, which must be authentic imperial kiln blue and white porcelain.
Yán Luòxī looked at the shattered pieces on the ground and Lì n's menacing gaze, forcing herself to smile nervously. If this little vase was indeed an antique, Lì n would surely try to extort a lifetime of servitude from her; she might as well have killed herself.
Lì n’s eyes swept fiercely across her face, the expression in his eyes changing rapidly. After a moment, he suddenly curled the corners of his mouth into a dazzling smile, causing the air around them to shift dramatically. Yán Luòxī couldn't help but shiver.
When this young master was furious and staring at her with fierce eyes, she could remain silent in defiance, but when he smiled like that, it sent chills down her spine. She knew he must have thought of some sinister scheme.
He crossed his arms and walked up to her, smiling; a darkly handsome aura surrounded him. "An authentic Qinghua from the Imperial Kiln during the Yongzheng era—only one in existence. Tell me, how will you compensate"
Yán Luòxī looked down at her toes, feeling awkward. After turning her eyes around a few times, she raised her head bravely to confront Lì n: "Then what about you You brought me here while I was drunk and forced yourself on me—how do we settle that"
Lì n looked at her for two seconds before patting her shoulder with a hand. He praised, “You’re teachable! After drinking your fill of wine, it seems that stupidity has turned into cleverness!”
Yan Luoxi disdainfully pushed away his overly familiar hand. Her previous anger and embarrassment were rekindled as she verbally abused him without restraint: "How lewd are you Taking advantage of someone in a vulnerable situation, going after the fallen, despicable, filthy scum..."
Li An's originally faint mockery vanished instantly, replaced by an ambiguous, playful smirk. He leaned down, his mocking smile never faltering as he pinched Yan Luoxi’s chin, acting like a prince waking Sleeping Beauty, but the words that came out of his mouth were chilling: "If you dare to curse me one more time, I'll cut your tongue off!"
Yan Luoxi's almond-shaped eyes widened in astonishment as she tried her best to put on an unafraid face. However, under Li An’s oppressive influence, all she could do was close her mouth meekly and glare at him angrily.
Satisfied, Li An stood up straight and sized up the subdued little slave before him.
The Yan Luoxi in front of him had just taken a bath. The scent from her cleansing lingered around her as her tresses hung softly on either side of her shoulders. Her face was unadorned with any makeup, but her large eyes were glaring brightly at him; her lips naturally rosy and skin smooth and fair, chest heaving vigorously in anger.
She still wore his oversized shirt, with her long legs peeking out suggestively from beneath it. The sight of his clothes hugging her form caused a wave of heat to surge through Li An’s abdomen, making his smile lose some vigor.
Yan Luoxi noticed the somewhat eerie quality in Li An's grin and saw familiar emotions stirring within his pretty eyes as she glanced downward slightly. She then caught sight of an abrupt change in his body posture.
"You're such a pervert!" Her face flushed red, she covered her body protectively and carefully took two steps back.
Lily An was also a bit embarrassed, but he didn't want to show his weakness in front of this little girl. He forced a smile and said arrogantly, "How have I been a rogue If I am one, it's because you tempted me. Have you forgotten what you told me yesterday"
"I... What did I say" Yan Luoxi looked at Lily An nervously; she knew her low alcohol tolerance might have caused her to speak out of line.
In response to Yan Luoxi's confusion, Lily An became even happier. He sat comfortably on the large sofa and slowly said, "You told me that you missed me. You've secretly liked me since childhood, and during these years away from me, you've always thought about me and worried about me nonstop..."
"Impossible!" Yan Luoxi's heart fell; although alcohol had fragmented her memory, she would never believe he was telling the truth when he said that she missed him. She laughed lightly but firmly interrupted Lily An.
Lily An ground his teeth in anger. It seemed as though Yan Luoxi thought he was daydreaming and fancifully imagining things!
That night, seeing her exhausted and pained figure that evoked sympathy, he had truly felt guilty and wanted to be kinder to her.
But why did he only remember his guilt and forget how awful she was He said with a bad temper, "Whether it's possible or not, you were the one who insisted on coming home with me. You clung onto me, so I didn't want you to struggle too much in case you got hurt, hence I gave in."
Listening to his light-hearted recounting of last night's tumultuous events and how he had conveniently placed all the blame on her, Yan Luoxi felt as if she would explode with rage. She was even more aggrieved than Dou E!
"It's that simple!" She glared angrily at Li An, pointing to the bruises visible on her body, implying that if she had forced him, where would these marks have come from.
Li An gave a wicked smile and deliberately twisted her meaning. "Do you want me to go into detail Then I'll tell you. Look, don't drink too much in the future; when you get drunk, it's so unrefined! I'm such a pure person that I don’t take advantage of others who are vulnerable. Yesterday, I really planned on sending you back to your dormitory, but no matter what I did, you wouldn't let go of me—I couldn't just leave you in the street! Out of kindness, I brought you home, but before I could even help you to bed, you impatiently pinned me down and started undressing me, kissing me without any sense!"
Yan Luoxi listened to Li An's vivid depiction with her face turning red. She had no choice but to deny it: "Shut up! It wasn’t like that at all"
Li An chuckled and raised an eyebrow. "Oh, so you do remember I'll tell you again then... hehe… You’re really naughty…"
Yan Luoxi was both angry and amused by his behavior; she pointed to Li An’s towering height of nearly 180cm and her own slight figure barely reaching 160cm. "With my build, could I possibly overpower you"
Li An looked at Yan Luoxi's frustrated face and found it even more hilarious. The amusement in his eyes and the corners of his mouth deepened with a profound meaning: "The size of a person has nothing to do with this matter. Even strong men fear persistent women! And you yourself don’t know that after drinking, you’re very fierce!"
Yan Luoxi could feel Li An's chest vibrating as he laughed; looking at his taunting smile made her dizzy and see stars before her eyes. After a long while, she recalled the evidence in her favor: "When I woke up later on, you were clearly on top of me. And when I told you to get off, why didn’t you"e and hair accessory were also included.Ni Xuanyi knew that these items had been picked out by Li Yi’s capable female secretary as he always thought so meticulously.Soon after, Li Yi called to inform...
