So hot.
It feels like my blood is about to ignite.
The young woman leaned lightly against the white porcelain wall tiles. The cold temperature seeped into her back, momentarily suppressing the scorching heat that was about to boil in her blood.
She took a deep breath, slackening her tense lineaments.
Damn it. All she did was step outside for a breath of fresh air when she was in a bad mood. How could she have been drugged?
If she found out who had drugged her, she would flay them alive!
Qin Jingxuan walked into the restroom, abruptly stopping.
A svelte woman was gently rubbing against the cold wall tiles adorned in an elegant white evening gown.
Her forehead was soaked in sweat, trickling down her graceful neck, across her porcelain-like skin, shimmering faintly under the light.
With her eyes closed, her long eyelashes twitched weakly, creating a particularly enticing scene under the pale light.
Upon hearing footsteps, Ye Xiangwan abruptly opened her eyes.
She subconsciously glanced at the entrance.
The man entering had a slender figure, delicate features, and his eyes briefly rested on her before dismissively looking away, heading towards the restroom on his left.
Squinting at the side profile of the man, Ye Xiangwan let out a whistle.
He's really handsome.
Qin Jingxuan did not stop in his tracks, seeming to be already accustomed to the captivated gazes of women towards him.
Just as he brushed by Ye Xiangwan and was about to push the restroom door open, suddenly, a hand grabbed his arm, a charming voice echoed warmly in his ear.
Ye Xiangwan leaned half against the brick wall, smiling as she approached Qin Jingxuan, whispering, "Handsome, how much for spending one night with you?"
Qin Jingxuan glanced at the feminine delicacy of the hand on his arm, and shifted his gaze sideways.
"You can't afford me, even if you sell yourself."
In the effect of drugs, Ye Xiangwan couldn't care less about the indifference and contempt she sensed in the man's words. His sensual voice made her more fascinated, greedily looking at his handsome profile.
Qin Jingxuan always disliked it when others touched him.
He coldly removed Ye Xiangwan’s hand, pushed open the bathroom door, and entered.
Just as Ye Xiangwan was about to follow him, she took a step and saw the man ahead, without even turning his head back saying, "Look up."
On instinct, Ye Xiangwan looked up.
She couldn't understand why, but this man seemed to be a frequent holder of authority. Every action, every word, every gaze, all possessed a baffling intimidating power that made one want to submit.
When she looked up, she saw the sign above the door.
[Men’s Restroom].
She knew it was the men's restroom.
"Stop, lady." But she wouldn't.
Ye Xiangwan lowered her head, her admiring gaze once more landing on the man.
He was very handsome.
His voice was so pleasant.
His figure was terrific.
Qin Jingxuan stood half turned, his well-defined fingers lingering on the zipper of his pants, not moving.
He had thought that showing her the sign on the men's bathroom door would stop her progress, but she was still planning to enter.
He coolly gave her a glance.
"Scram."
A single, chilling word, cold to the bone.
Colder than his gaze.
Ye Xiangwan, in her under-the-weather discretion, shivered as a shred of her medicine-addled senses returned sharply under his icy gaze.
Meeting his frosty eyes again, Ye Xiangwan quickly shut the restroom door for him, like a loyal lackey.
She lifted her head, the harsh light from the crystal chandelier stabbing into her eyes, helping her to regain a bit of clarity.
Like a shot arrow, she dashed over to the sink, turned on the faucet, and splashed handful after handful of icy water onto her face, managing to suppress the beasts roaring in her blood, and bring her back to reality.
Recalling the deeds she had just committed, Ye Xiangwan had a strong impulse to bang her head against the wall.
She rested her forehead heavily against the icy bathroom sink.
Gently pounded her fist against it.
She was too embarrassed to face anyone else.
She quickly planned to make her escape while the others were still inside. Get out of here quick!
No matter now, the whole saga was only known by heaven, earth, her and him. As long as she never bumped into that man again, no one else would ever know the embarrassing incident had occurred.
Just as Ye Xiangwan was about to turn around, a rush of footsteps echoed from the entrance.
A bulky, fat man walked in.
Seeing Ye Xiangwan, the fat man's eyes lit up, smilingly he said, "My little beauty, Uncle has finally found you, hasn't he?"
"……"
Ye Xiangwan felt her eyes were on the verge of blinding.
A man old enough to be her father, looking at her with such intent!
Despite the man's distinct raspy voice, he affectionately called her little beauty!
Beauty, my foot!
"Today, you won't be able to escape from Uncle's palm. Be a good girl and keep Uncle company--"
The chubby guy walked towards Ye Xiangwan, grinning lasciviously as he spoke.
Ye Xiangwan thought to herself, the person who had drugged her was likely this chubby man.
He was heavyset and stout, and she estimated even a blow from her leg wouldn't topple him over. Instead, she would probably end up twisting her own ankle. Physical force simply wouldn't work on him, she was overmatched.
Her eyes rolled around, then suddenly, she thought of a plan.
She gave him an once-over, taking in his appearance from top to bottom. Then her eyes lit up as she gazed at his lower half, her expression filled with a nostalgic sadness. She murmured softly, "Uncle, that thing of yours... I used to have one too."
"…Huh?"
The chubby man was taken aback, not immediately grasping Ye Xiangwan's meaning.
Ye Xiangwan point to the region beneath his waist, lamenting, "That thing, I used to have it too, and mine was bigger than yours."
"..."
The chubby man glanced down at the part of him she was pointing at; he thought he was beginning to understand.
However, his complexion darkened considerably.
Ye Xiangwan, pretending as though she hadn't seen the change in his complexion, continued rambling, “I used to like a boy from my dormitory, but he said he didn't like men. So, I gritted my teeth and went to Thailand to have sex-change surgery. I transformed from a heroic man into a woman... only to return and be ridiculed by him as revolting, calling me a freak, and even our friendship ended…"
The chubby man's face hardened even more the more he listened.
His gaze kept darting back and forth at Ye Xiangwan's waist, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
Ye Xiangwan lost herself in her narration.
"How could there be such a heartless man?" I even went to Thailand for a surgery because of him. When I came back, I was beaten half to death by my parents. I dragged my injured body to find him in the pouring rain. But he locked me out of his dorm, asking me never to find him again..."
"Enough!"
The fat man's mouth twitched even more severely, his face darker than ever.
Looking at Ye Xiangwan's beautiful face, he suddenly felt a chill!
Ye Xiangwan looked up at the fat man, blinking.
"Uncle, don't you believe it? Let me show you my surgery scars are still there."
"Uncle, why do you look so ill?"
"Hey, why are you running? If you can't afford the big game, don't mess with me!"
Before Ye Xiangwan could finish, the fat man ran out as if he had seen something disgusting.
Ye Xiangwan watched the man disappear from her sight, and after a long while, she couldn't help but laugh.
What was the reason she using to scare the last person?
Oh, she remembered. That time she told the guy that she had AIDS, and he ran away in fear, as pale as a ghost.
Humph, such disgusting men deserved to be scared like this a few times.
Let's see if they dare to harm pretty women next time!
In the restroom, Qin Jingxuan looked in the direction of the door, listening to the sound of the woman's high heels gradually moving away, a smile playing at the corners of his mouth.
What an interesting woman.
He had never seen such self-preserving technique before.
However, it's a pity, he had just thought she was a hostess in a bar, and was disgusted for a moment, and didn't really pay attention to her appearance.
Even if he had the chance to meet her again in the future, probably he wouldn't recognize her.
