She dialed Feng Jianya’s mobile phone. “Ya, Lingmu Chun. You’re going live on TV tonight.”
“Too bad. I just got out of the hospital,” he said, accompanying Ye Fengying on a shopping trip to the hypermarket on their way home.
“Don’t use that as an excuse; you brought this upon yourself. Feng Jianya, no running away!”
“Yes, manager.” He hung his head in defeat.
“Is Fengying there? I’d like to say a few words to her.”
Ya passed the phone to Fengying. “Hey, Chun, looking for me?”
“Fengying, you should take better care of him. He’s a public figure; can’t you guys just stay home?”
Her face flushed. “I understand.”
“What did she say?” Ya asked while driving.
Fengying shot him a look. “It’s all because of you; don’t touch me in public!”
“Okay,” he laughed weakly, “Can I touch you when we’re home?”
“Go to hell.” She raised the phone to hit him but ultimately couldn’t bring herself to do it.
Ya reached out and placed his hand on her thigh. “What would you do if I died?”
“Focus on driving, will you? We’re in the middle of the street!”
“Don’t worry; my driving skills are nothing for you to worry about.” He always had a reckless streak, but he didn’t want her to know about that.
“Four years ago, after you left home, I went looking for your friends. You’ve kept so many things from me.” A delinquent youth, a former gang leader, his identity was far more complex than she could imagine. As his sister, she felt somewhat embarrassed.
Ferrari turned slightly towards the gate. He parked the car and they both went inside.
“Ya, from now on, don’t…” Before she could finish, he kissed her. The warmth of their tongues touching softened her heart.
The heavens must have played a cruel trick. Such a perfect lover, yet he’s her brother; the irony was too much to bear! If he wasn’t her brother, if this brother didn’t love her with such intense passion, where would she place her affections?
That night when she gave herself to him, it felt like she had been waiting for that moment for twenty-four years. Perhaps their existence was meant to say “no” to the world!
“I’ve never desired a woman so intensely.” He gasped, his eyes alight with passion. “Ye Fengying, I’ve dreamt of holding you for ten years.”
“What is there about me worth loving? Ya, tell me, what exactly attracts you?”
“It’s not just one thing; it’s everything! Your smile, your tears, even the way you’ve looked down on people since you were little, I love it all. Don’t ask me why; all I can say is, I wouldn’t change just to love my own sister!”
None of us are shape-shifters! Feng tightly hugged him. The root of the pain was that she couldn’t sever her obsession with him; her heart, beyond cure, was stirred by him!
“Can I hug you?” he asked softly.
“I’m yours, only yours.” The feeling of fullness in her heart was actually despair, a shackle from which she could never escape.
He laid her on the beach, carefully and very slowly unbuttoning her clothes.
“Undressing a woman is a profound art for men,” he said with a wicked smile. “When you do it quickly, it leaves the woman no chance to refuse; but when a woman willingly goes to bed with you, undressing slowly can ignite desire, and men will develop a stronger interest in the body hidden beneath the clothes.”
“Ugh!” Feng was completely softened by his teasing. How could there be such a man, a natural killer of women? “Stop saying such vile things!”
“I can do even viler things. Don’t you know I’m quite lustful?” Ya also leaned in, his lips gently brushing her skin.
The places he kissed felt like they were burning. Feng’s skin was moist with sweat, her consciousness muddled, with only one thought left: she wanted him!
This woman truly wanted his life! With the allure of sin, he couldn’t resist the urge to have her. Was he teasing her, or was her natural charm and unintentional tenderness seducing him? It was unclear, and he didn’t want to figure it out anymore!
If he were to die, let him die in her embrace, at the happiest moment!
After all these years, he finally had her. Ye Feng, why don’t you say you love me? Say you need me!
Feng felt like she was floating on cloud nine. It was the joy Ya brought her. If it weren’t for his reappearance, she would never have experienced such extreme happiness amidst such pain.
Fate, I have nothing to complain about!
The latest single from Feng Shen, “A Different Kind of Love,” sold over a million copies on its first day of release and continues to sell hot. On various radio and television charts, Feng Shen’s song is unrivaled. At KTV, “A Different Kind of Love” is also the most frequently sung song.
Due to Ya’s hospitalization, the TV drama filming was suspended. Interviews, photo shoots, live broadcasts, his schedule was packed.
“Can you focus a bit?” Ya was furious with Song Tian Ruo Zi for messing up so many times.
“I’ve wasted your time, haven’t I?” Ruo Zi casually applied more makeup. “Do you want to go back to be with that woman sooner?”
“So what if I do? I warn you, mess up again, and this will be our last collaboration!”
She threw down her makeup brush, quickly hooked his chin, her slender waist swaying rhythmically in front of him. “Stay with me tonight.”
“I’m not free, and you can’t afford me.” With a beauty before him, the scent of her perfume tickling his nose, he remained unmoved.
“Am I not as beautiful or as sexy as her?” She was quite jealous.
He brushed her hand away. “Song Tian Ruo Zi, we’re done. You should find your next playmate.” His gaze was cold towards the woman he didn’t love.
“Are you truly in love with her?” Zhezi found it hard to believe. From the photos in the newspaper, she didn’t see anything particularly outstanding about her. What charm did she have to enchant someone like Ya, who usually associated with top-tier actresses?
“We’re in big trouble,” he said dismissively, not forgetting to warn her once more before leaving. “If you compete with me, watch out for that pretty face of yours!”
As if in response to his words, she covered her face.
Women are truly troublesome. Ya sat there, brooding. Apart from Ye Feng, he seemed to have lost interest in all other women.
When he got home, Feng was already fast asleep. He gazed deeply at her. Just stay by my side, for a lifetime!
Lingmu Chun spent the entire day driving and making phone calls, searching for Zhu Nei Zhengxiu, who seemed to have vanished like steam.
She pressed the phone number with such force that her fingers turned sour, then poured herself a strong cup of coffee. She still had to write a resignation letter; one couldn’t just quit work without notice.
The next day, she glanced at the clock; it was time. Tomorrow, she would leave Dongjing. Back to her hometown to settle down as a housewife. Staring at the words on her computer screen, she tried to convince herself bit by bit.
“Ring, ring.” The phone broke the silence of the night.
“Lingmu Chun.”
“Are you Zhu Nei Zhengxiu’s agent?” The voice on the other end was female.
“What’s the matter?” Could it be that this kid has caused trouble right before I leave?
“He’s here with me. Can you come pick him up? He’s drunk.” The other party provided an address and hung up in haste.
“Damn it, damn it.” Chun was furious. Zhu Nei Zhengxiu!
Three minutes later, Lingmu Chun drove her car onto the highway. As an agent of a BAND, she couldn’t just let him be. Since she hadn’t officially submitted her resignation, she felt she had to fulfill her duty.
The red-light district. A small white villa.
The lights were on, but there was no sound of people. Chun stopped the car, puzzled. She got out and walked towards the villa, feeling uneasy.
