Chapter 838: Scam Artists are Not Cute! (6)
“A woman like me?” Shi Sheng’s eyes narrowed, her tone suddenly turning chilling. “Then what kind of woman would you fancy?”
“Definitely not someone like you,” Xia Ling frowned. “What did you do to me?”
“Everything that needed to be done,” Shi Sheng scoffed.
Xia Ling’s expression darkened even more. “You… I’ll sue you.”
“Sue me?” Shi Sheng strode to the bed, towering over him. “Sue me for what? For having a man barge into my room in the middle of the night, with the intent to assault me? I slept with you, and you’re not satisfied?”
This idiot had wandered into her room in the middle of the night, claimed her bed, and even kicked her out.
“You’re lying.” He wasn’t that kind of person.
“Oh? I’m lying? Then why don’t you explain why you’re in my bed?”
“How should I know? Maybe you…” Xia Ling’s face grew more troubled the more he spoke.
His first time had been with a woman he didn’t even know.
Oddly, he didn’t feel as repulsed as he thought he should.
Shi Sheng pointed to her petite frame. “You think someone like me could drag a big guy like you into bed?”
Xia Ling sized her up. The girl was indeed small and cute, almost childlike.
“Why not?”
“So, you really want to believe I slept with you?” Shi Sheng’s smile turned sinister. “Are you sure you don’t like me?”
“Who likes you?” Xia Ling snapped back. ‘Shameless!’
“If you don’t like me, why are you insisting I took advantage of you?”
“What you did is illegal,” Xia Ling clutched the blanket tightly, as if afraid she might do something to him again.
Shi Sheng’s eyebrows arched with a brazen smile. “For you, I’d happily break the law. Worst case, I’ll go to jail, then come out and sleep with you again.”
Xia Ling felt he might have encountered a crazed fan. He glanced around, assessing his chances of escape.
‘Where is my phone?’
‘I need to call the police.’
Just as Xia Ling was contemplating his next move, a brand-new set of clothes was tossed at him, tags still attached.
The girl didn’t stay in the room; she turned and left.
Xia Ling hesitated for a moment, then quickly donned the clothes and got out of bed.
He inspected the bed, finding no strange marks or smells.
He opened the door and saw the living room in disarray, with the girl casually playing on her phone on the sofa.
Xia Ling took a look around. ‘Why does this place seem familiar?’
When he noticed a few decorations in the living room, he realized where he was.
This was his manager Yu Sheng’s home.
He turned back to look at the bedroom door; no wonder it seemed unfamiliar—he had never been in that room before.
“You lied to me?” Xia Ling strode over to Shi Sheng, leaning on the sofa with a hint of anger in his voice.
Shi Sheng calmly set her phone down. “First, you climbed into my bed yourself. Second, you took off your own clothes. Third, you fantasized that I did something to you.”
She wasn’t about to take the blame for this.
“You’re Xiao’guai?” Xia Ling circled the sofa and plopped down, propping his feet on the coffee table like a spoiled rich kid.
Though he hadn’t seen her before, he had heard about her from Yu Sheng and Assistant Feng.
Shi Sheng glanced at his arrogant posture and suddenly remarked, “Last night, you even asked me to help you take off your pants.”
Xia Ling had no recollection of his drunken actions from the previous night.
“What do you think my uncle would do if he found out?” Shi Sheng made a throat-slitting gesture.
The spoiled Xia Ling suddenly put his feet down and sat up straight, clearing his throat. “Xiao’guai.”
Shi Sheng shot him a sidelong glance.
Xia Ling couldn’t shake the feeling that the girl across from him had a bewitching allure, as if one glance from her could etch itself into his memory.
Xia Ling averted his gaze. “Don’t tell Yu-ge about this.”
He was well aware of his own tendency to get wild when drunk.
“Alright, but you have to agree to one condition.”
Xia Ling clutched his chest dramatically. “I don’t do shady deals.”
Shi Sheng rolled her eyes. “Relax, if I wanted to do something to you, I would have done it last night.”
Xia Ling slowly lowered his hand, relieved that nothing had indeed happened.
“What condition? As long as it’s not too outrageous, I might agree.”
“Be my boyfriend.”
Xia Ling was taken aback, then laughed. “Are girls these days always this straightforward? Asking me to be your boyfriend the first time we meet?”
“How else am I supposed to chase someone if not directly?”
“I don’t like you,” Xia Ling refused flatly.
Women were nothing but trouble in his eyes.
“Then I’ll tell my uncle you tried to rape me last night,” Shi Sheng said with a nonchalant shrug.
“You…” Xia Ling stared at her incredulously. ‘How could she say something so shameless?’
He glared at Shi Sheng. “What do you like about me? This face?”
‘What else do I have to offer?’
‘People are so superficial nowadays.’
Shi Sheng’s gaze turned mischievous as she let her eyes travel downwards. “I like you… when you’re naked.”
Xia Ling abruptly stood up and pinned Shi Sheng to the sofa, encircling her with his arms. “Since Xiao’guai likes it, I’ll indulge you… Don’t regret it.”
He didn’t believe she had the guts to follow through.
Clearly, Xia Ling underestimated Shi Sheng. She started unbuttoning his shirt. “I never regret anything with you.”
Before he knew it, Shi Sheng had already undone two of his buttons.
Xia Ling leaned in, pretending to kiss her, but Shi Sheng just smiled up at him, leaning in even closer.
Panic flickered in Xia Ling’s eyes as he let her go. “I agree.”
His heart had begun to race uncontrollably, a feeling he’d never experienced before. As his heartbeat settled, Xia Ling wanted to slap himself. ‘What did I just agree to?’
He had just agreed to be her boyfriend after meeting her for the first time.
“Xia Ling, have you lost your mind from drinking?”
Just as Xia Ling was about to take back his words, the door opened, and Yu Sheng and Assistant Feng walked in.
Seeing the chaotic scene, both of them were stunned.
Yu Sheng reacted quickly, rushing from the entrance to the living room in a few strides. “Xiao’guai, are you alright?”
Shi Sheng shrugged and nodded her head slightly.
“Then what happened here?” Yu Sheng gestured to the mess all around.
Shi Sheng pointed directly at Xia Ling.
Xia Ling: “…” ‘What happened to being my girlfriend? Selling me out this quickly?’
Yu Sheng glanced at Xia Ling, quickly grasping that he must have gone wild while drunk last night.
“Assistant Feng, didn’t I tell you to take Xiao’guai back to school?” Yu Sheng turned and shouted at Assistant Feng.
“I… I forgot…” With the urgency of last night’s situation, he had a lot to handle.
“Forgot? You forgot something so important? What if…” Yu Sheng cut himself off, thinking about what could have happened between an unattended man and woman. What if Xia Ling had tried something with Xiao’guai?
Xia Ling’s drunken rampages were akin to a madman’s.
