Shan Xiaoya glanced sideways at the suddenly appearing uniformed security men, casually stepping back. This bar was the safest place around, where fights or disturbances never happened – which was why she chose to vent here. Unexpectedly, one of the security guards blocked her path. Shan Xiaoya stopped her dancing body and coldly looked at the man who seemed to be the leader. Displeased, she said, “I’m out to have fun and don’t like being interrupted. Please move aside!”
The bar owner politely repeated his earlier words. “Miss, I’d like to talk to you privately.”
Shan Xiaoya gave a cold laugh. “Looks like I don’t have the right to say ‘no’. Lead the way!”
The bar owner was surprised by the calmness of this girl who appeared under 20.
He led the way to the security corridor, with eight security guards surrounding Shan Xiaoya, leaving her no extra space to escape.
Shan Xiaoya secretly calculated her chances of escaping, which seemed almost zero. These guards, from their walking posture, were clearly well-trained. She would struggle to handle two, let alone eight. It was too difficult! She could only wait for an opportunity, her eyes occasionally scanning the surroundings.
The bar owner stopped in the security corridor, which was eerily quiet compared to the noisy hall. He turned to Shan Xiaoya and said, “Miss, I have a request. I hope you’ll agree.”
Shan Xiaoya looked around, finally fixing her gaze on the bar owner’s face. Her cold eyes showed no fear. “Speak. I’m listening.”
“I want to invite you to accompany a very important person. I hope you’ll agree. Name your conditions. Anything I can do, I’ll fulfill.”
Shan Xiaoya raised an eyebrow, showing a disdainful expression. “Accompany? How? Sleeping together? Sorry! I’m not 18, I don’t play adult games.”
The bar owner looked embarrassed. Lowering his stance, he said, “Miss, please agree this time! I’ll meet any condition. Money, houses, cars. Choose what you want.”
Shan Xiaoya laughed coldly. “What if I say I don’t want these things and don’t want to agree?”
The bar owner’s expression changed.
For the first time in years, he had lowered himself to speak to someone, and to be rejected by a young girl after such humble pleading was unbearable. He blinked. “Miss, then I can only offend you. You’re refusing a toast and will be forced to drink the penalty.”
Panic flashed in Shan Xiaoya’s eyes. What should she do? “I want 5 million in cash.”
The bar owner was clearly stunned by such a high demand from someone so young. He looked at her in shock.
Shan Xiaoya suddenly laughed, an evil smile. “Too greedy for money? Then let’s forget the whole thing.” She tried to move past the security guards.
The bar owner stomped his foot hard, gritting his teeth. “Deal!”
Shan Xiaoya was surprised he agreed, looking at him questioningly. “After this… ” she made a throat-cutting gesture. “No need to pay then. I don’t trust you. Cash first, then the goods.”
A sarcastic voice came: “I don’t trust you!”
“Fine, wait,” he said, making a phone call.
Shortly, a security guard brought a black briefcase. “Boss, the money’s here.”
The bar owner irritably said, “Give it to her!”
Shan Xiaoya calmly took the briefcase, opened it to look, took out a stack of money, weighed it in her hand, and suddenly laughed inexplicably.
After laughing, she closed the briefcase. With a bewitching tone, she said, “500 million for one night of abandon. Worth it! Let’s go!”
Chapter 005
Shan Xiaoya, dressed in red, carried a black briefcase and lightly pushed open the private room door. The dim lighting made her squint. After a while, she could see the room’s interior. On the sofa sat a burly man. His presence filled the room, creating a sense of oppression.
Shen Zhonglei sat on the sofa, watching the stunning wild cat who entered. She was even more breathtaking in person than on screen. Her defiant eyes and wild form stirred something in him. He urgently wanted to possess her. A woman like her, so cold and wild, had never stayed in his world before. He imagined her beneath him and became inexplicably excited.
When he first saw her on screen, he felt she should be in his arms, not displaying her beauty in public. Her charm was for his eyes only. He had an impulse to drag her down from the stage. The two women beside him no longer interested him. His eyes remained fixed on her on the screen.
The feeling of being moved by a woman had never happened to him before. The women around him were merely bed partners for physical needs. He didn’t mind adding another bed partner, one who could move him.
He would support her education, protect her from troublemakers, and spare her from taking action herself. As long as she agreed to stay by his side, he would fulfill all her demands.
Dan Xiaoya placed her suitcase in the corner of the door and took a deep breath. She strode to the coffee table, elegantly poured two glasses of wine, then handed one to the man on the sofa. With a seductive voice, she said, “Sir, your invitation has earned me 500 million. To thank you, here! I toast to you!” She raised her glass to the man, then drank the entire glass. She soon realized the XO taste was far worse than she had imagined. She frowned and put down the glass, maintaining a safe distance from the man.
Shen Zhonglei accepted the wine glass, staring at the wine that slid from her mouth corner, emitting an unusual glow under the flickering light. It made his heart race. He swallowed hard, suppressing the passion rising within him. His desire-filled eyes fixed on the liquid remaining at her mouth corner, an impulse to lick it…
His eyes grew deep and dark, his body gradually moving closer to her. Her natural fragrance stimulated his senses. The fire of desire within him rose step by step… He had never experienced such an intense craving…
Dan Xiaoya watched the man approaching her, her heart suddenly jumping. Panic flashed in her eyes – she had never encountered such a situation. This time was different; someone had already paid for her night’s indulgence, but she didn’t know what her patron looked like. Her heart beat faster as he drew near, her cheeks feeling hot.
Shen Zhonglei continued approaching Dan Xiaoya, who kept leaning backward. Her back was almost touching the cold coffee table, feeling his body temperature in front of her. She stretched out her hand to block his chest, looking lost in his eyes.
Shen Zhonglei looked at her side, his blood surging uncontrollably. He reached out to support her neck, lowering his head.
As their lips drew closer, Dan Xiaoya was awakened by the heat. By reflex, she kneed forward and struck his face with her fist.
Shen Zhonglei never expected her to suddenly attack him. Unable to dodge, he was hit in a critical spot. The pain made him quickly leap off her, extinguishing the burning passion.
Uncontrollable anger filled his entire body. He had never been played like this before. Only she had made him suffer such a massive setback. Ignoring the pain in his lower abdomen, he narrowed his eyes dangerously at her. Quickly, he grabbed her and pinned her to the wall corner, gripping her chin and forcing her to look at his anger. He said evilly, “Little thing, do you want to know the consequences of angering me?”
Dan Xiaoya felt her vision blur as she was suddenly trapped between him and the wall. His breath hit her face. She realized how vastly different their physiques were. His powerful hand held her body firmly. She was now unable to move at all. She could only helplessly watch his anger-filled eyes, discovering her own insignificance and weakness.
