Night falls, and although Lin City cant compare to Kyotos prosperity, it is also a well-known second-tier city in the south, with high-rise buildings and bright lights.
Ruan Jiang took a shower and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He was craving cigarettes badly today, having finished a whole pack, so he called room service to have some sent up.
Ye Chen didnt know if it was intentional to annoy him, but he took a screenshot and sent him a photo of himself and Feng Xiao Xiao on the hot search list this morning.
He furrowed his brow, turned off his phone and tossed it onto the sofa.
Just then, the doorbell rang, and I thought it was the hotel delivering cigarettes. When I opened the door, I saw that the person standing outside was Jiang Yan.
The first thing that caught her eye was his pair of peach blossom eyes, which were as deep and mysterious as frost. The messy hair in front was wet and dripping with water droplets falling onto his bathrobe, revealing a V-shaped neckline, with his chest muscles faintly visible.
Jiang Yan thought that he was probably one of those people who looked thin when dressed, but had a good figure when undressed, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, like the golden ratio of the Pacific.
Hes just too arrogant, I suppose he was raised that way as a rich young master.
Jiang Yan arrived just in time, fearing that he and his "red beauty" hadnt finished talking yet, but unexpectedly he had already finished bathing.
She had just finished her bath and changed into the pajamas she brought with her.
Ruan Jiang saw her holding a pack of cigarettes, which he had just asked room service to buy over the phone.
Jiang Yan had just arrived when she happened to run into the receptionist who was delivering cigarettes, so she brought them over.
The front desk was also sharp-eyed and saw that when they checked in, Jiang Yan was standing by Ruan Jiangs side, so she thought the relationship between the two wasnt shallow, so she let her take it.
Ruan Jiang Lin went in first, and Jiang Yan followed him in.
Jiang Yan handed him a cigarette, he didnt take it at first, the playful teasing in his peach blossom eyes was all revealed, and the impatient expression when opening the door dissipated.
His anger comes quickly and disappears mysteriously.
Jiang Yan waved his hand, indicating for him to receive it.
He then stretched out his hand to take it, slowly and carefully tearing open the packaging. A cigarette was pinched between his index finger and middle finger, white and with distinct bones.
Ruan Jianglin noticed her gaze and smiled with ill intentions: "Whats wrong, want something?"
What do you want? Hands or cigarettes, its hard not to have improper thoughts.
He sat on the sofa, with his back straight and legs crossed, holding that cigarette in his long fingers, as if he suddenly remembered Jiang Yan was still there. He slightly raised his hand to ask: "Do you mind?"
She didnt respond, shook her head, she was thinking that even if she said she minded, Ruan Jianglin would still smoke.
He lifted his long legs and walked back to the window, pushing it open. The evening breeze blew in, and the September wind was already a bit cool.
Especially in the 30th floor room, its freezing at high altitude.
The large building across the street was a fluorescent screen, Jiang Yan noticed that the person on the screen was Gu Qing, and it was playing her latest endorsement of Armani advertisement.
She owes her current position entirely to the man who stood in front of Jiang Yan.
A cerulean flame burst forth between his fingers, igniting the smoke at his fingertips. The starry sparks danced, exceptionally captivating.
"Why are you looking for me?" He leaned against the window, his gaze lingering on the advertisement screen across from him, which just so happened to be a close-up of Gu Qings slender fingers igniting sparks that scattered and dispersed.
Jiang Yan thought her intentions were obvious, wearing thin silk and light makeup, wasnt that obvious enough?
The advertisement on the opposite side has been replaced with a young and popular star who recently rose to fame.
Ruan Jiang Lin gazed at her carefully, a standard oriental egg-shaped face with fine and long eyebrows and eyes, cherry lips with a natural red color that didnt seem to be lip gloss, making one want to take a slight taste.
She had a small mole under her eyebrows, not black, but light red, adding a few points of worldly dust to her cold and clear face that didnt belong to her age, precisely speaking, it was desire.
"Jiang Yan, you were wrong last time." His eyes moved down from the nape of his neck and then he smiled.
Jiang Yan didnt understand, she asked: "What?"
He laughed even more recklessly, with a lazy posture: "No 36D, only C".
Jiang Yans face suddenly turned from pale to crimson, burning with a bit of pain.
She admitted she had lied last time.
She hung her head and couldnt hide her face which had turned crimson with shyness.
The cigarette was almost burning his fingertips, he took a drag, and then extinguished it.
He puckered his lips, step by step approaching her, his slender figure blocking the light, obscuring all her remaining line of sight.
He lifted her chin with his fingers, forcing her to raise her head and look at him, a pair of autumnal eyes, as if filled with deep emotions.
His lower abdomen seemed to still retain the temperature from the fire just now. Before she could react, the handsome face in front of her was suddenly enlarged.
He pinched her chin, lifted it up, and she had to stand on tiptoes. His kiss came too suddenly, like a raging beast, yet like the warm sun after rain, which made her feel sweet and delightful.
Jiang Yan had a moment where she couldnt distinguish between reality and dreams.
The next second, she immediately knew it was reality.
He blew the smoke from his mouth into hers with great force, he was extremely bad, biting down and not letting go of her mouth, she choked it in, as if her entire lungs were burning.
Like a man drowning in the ocean and about to die, unable to breathe half a breath.
Jiang Yan had never smoked before and didnt know if all cigarettes were as strong as the one Ruan Jianglin was smoking, she had smelled it a few times and felt choked, but hadnt expected it to be this strong.
Now its bitter in her mouth, all the way from the trachea to the lungs, as if they were burned, she feels like her throat is almost hoarse.
She almost subconsciously pushed Ruan Jianglin, but her little strength was no match for Ruan Jianglin.
Until she really thought she was going to die at Ruan Jianglins hands in the last second, Ruan Jianglin let go.
She gasped heavily, breathing in the long-awaited air, and the smoke in her mouth also gradually dissipated.
Ruan Jianglins breathing was also somewhat fluctuating, but compared to her, it was much better.
Jiang Yan thought, he didnt have that calm and natural look after all.
He stretched out his hand and wiped away the silver threads that had stained the corner of his mouth, with a hint of crimson in his eyes.
She gazed at his face, too indifferent.
He smiled, a very lazy smile, and the emotional stirrings from just now seemed to dissipate.
Jiang Yan heard him say: "Too cool."
Jiang Yan was a bit wooden, she didnt know what to do next to make Ruan Jianglin look at her with some slight approval today.
She hadnt thought of what to say yet when Ruan Jianglin interrupted her thoughts again.
He seems to always guess her little thoughts.
"Are you going to deliver it right to my doorstep?"
His words were too straightforward, as if they could straighten out her twisted intestines, but also didnt leave her with a shred of dignity.
A man who is sent to your doorstep and has a good impression, why wouldnt you want him?
He was telling her that there was no difference between Jiang Yan taking off her clothes and those other girls by his side.
Jiang Yan thought she understood, she straightened her legs that had gone soft because of a kiss and walked towards the door with her back straight.
Then came Ruan Jianglins voice from behind: "Dont forget, tomorrow you have to be my guide."
Jiang Yan found that he always liked to slap her first and then give her a date, just like what had happened earlier when he had stripped off her clothes and humiliated her, only to put them back on for her intact.
Perhaps this is the kind of bad taste that a young master like him enjoys, perhaps he treats Gu Qing in the same way.
