Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The next day, Jiang Moxi woke up to find the day already bright.
Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, she felt montarily disoriented.
At this mont, Fu Youhan entered, carrying clothes and a backpack that Chi Jing had retrieved for her from Night Color early in the morning.
Seeing her sitting blankly on the bed, he was sowhat surprised.
But soon, he walked towards her as usual.
"Regretting after the class? Weren’t you quite brave last night?"
He approached the bed, his long fingers gently lifting Jiang Moxi’s chin, making her flawless face in the sunlight face him directly.
The man’s touch unconsciously made Jiang Moxi think back to their intimate encounter last night.
In this aspect, she was still as naïve as a blank sheet of paper, her face involuntarily flushing.
"I don’t regret it."
Seeing the smile in the man’s dark eyes, she involuntarily turned her face away.
Then, she heard his slightly hoarse voice, tinged with a playful tone:
"In that case, how about we make a deal?"
"Deal?"
The word made Jiang Moxi unconsciously turn back to look at Fu Youhan.
She saw his gaze, obscure and knowing, as if he had seen through everything.
"I know you are isolated and unsupported in the Jiang Family; I can ensure your position in the Jiang Family remains unchanged. I can help you secure those things, I can even give you this property..."
Fu Youhan suddenly leaned in close to Jiang Moxi.
Jiang Moxi stiffened slightly, still sowhat uncomfortable with the man being so close: "What do I need to do?"
Seeing Jiang Moxi freeze, her pure yet desirous face was filled with hesitation, Fu Youhan couldn’t resist closing the distance further and kissed her.
Last night’s unexpected harmony had given him a sense of delightful familiarity.
However, he thought the person who had been intimate with him before was An Xueluo.
So it must have been a similar delightful experience that created such an illusion.
Thinking that within this year, she could end up doing the sa with soone else whenever she drinks...
He felt an inexplicable surge of possessiveness in his heart.
That kind of delight, he didn’t want to share with anyone else, but wanted to monopolize.
Thus, after the kiss, Fu Youhan said in a voice so husky it didn’t seem like his own:
"Stay with for a year, and I’ll help you with anything."
Jiang Moxi was srized by the kiss, and sowhat intoxicated by their interactions.
But Fu Youhan’s words startled her: "Does that an, I have to be your lover for this year?"
"Mm, didn’t you find last night’s lesson satisfying?"
Fu Youhan’s lips curved slightly, their faces still inches apart, able to feel each other’s desires in their breaths.
Jiang Moxi was slightly stunned, and looked into the man’s eyes for a mont, seeing his dark eyes that seed tender, were actually cold and ruthless.
Such a gaze scorched her.
Her eyes fluttered shut, and when she opened them again, the anger and desolation had vanished from her gaze, leaving only a slight smile.
"I’m sorry, I refuse this deal. I don’t need the Jiang Family’s status or possessions, and I don’t need you to take responsibility for last night. As for the house, I don’t need it for now."
Fu Youhan’s eyes narrowed, regarding Jiang Moxi with an intensely sharp gaze: "Then what do you want? Money?"
He thought, the offers he made, for soone in her predicant, would be quite tempting.
Unexpectedly, she refused so straightforwardly.
"I can earn money myself. As for last night, I am grateful to Third Master Fu for helping at a critical mont. As a return, I will not tell anyone that you don’t actually need a wheelchair."
Jiang Moxi still smiled gently at him, but her eyes held only alienation and coldness.
Fu Youhan was annoyed that she used the fact he didn’t need a wheelchair to offset last night’s incident.
He had thought that after last night, their relationship would be different.
Jiang Moxi ignored whatever expression Fu Youhan had, she just got out of bed, ready to pass by his side to go to the bathroom to wash up.
But at that mont, Fu Youhan grabbed her.
Perhaps hurt by Fu Youhan’s suggestion of being bed partners, Jiang Moxi’s tone sharpened: "Does one night make Third Master Fu brood over it? What’s wrong, can’t handle playing?"
"Not exactly." Fu Youhan let go of her hand, then added: "Just want to ask one last question."
"Ask."
"Who was your first ti with?"
Jiang Moxi was taken aback and, turning around, found herself facing his sharp gaze comparable to a cold blade.
That sensation of being seen through swept over her once again.
Caught between confession and avoidance, the man’s voice reached her once more:
"Is this question so hard to answer? Was it Yiming, Lin Xian, or perhaps Ling Ye?"
Jiang Moxi regained her senses, only to see a hint of mockery in the man’s eyes.
She hadn’t expected that Fu Youhan would know about Ling Ye.
It seed that he had investigated her before she woke up.
The last thing she wanted now was for soone to delve into her past, reopening those bloody Chapters.
That’s why she had concealed her identity and even disguised her stunning features.
Fu Youhan’s actions were equivalent to crossing a line.
Her smile faded significantly, "None of them. It was a weakling, so it’s hard to ntion."
Fu Youhan was sowhat taken aback and felt an inexplicable anger, thinking that Jiang Moxi was actually scolding him.
But this ti, Jiang Moxi pulled away from his grasp and entered the bathroom to wash up.
After getting rid of the stickiness on her body, Jiang Moxi changed into the clothes Chi Jing had brought for her.
They were the casual clothes she had changed out of last night when she was working part-ti.
Her bag also contained her makeup.
So, she took the opportunity to apply a bit more on her face.
When she walked out of the bathroom again, she was back to her usual, unattractive self.
What surprised her was that when she walked out of the villa, Fu Youhan’s car hadn’t left yet.
The rear window of the car slowly rolled down, revealing the man’s sharp, handso face that even the sun couldn’t overshadow.
But he didn’t even glance at Jiang Moxi, just coldly stared straight ahead, "Get in the car, I’ll give you a lift."
Their recent conversation had ended unpleasantly for both.
Jiang Moxi knew she should refuse, but her legs felt weak and wobbly, prompting her to rudely open the car door on the other side and sit in.
"I have two classes this morning, just drop off at the entrance to the Technical College."
"Drop her off at the entrance of the Technical College," Fu Youhan coldly instructed Chi Jing.
"Yes." Chi Jing drove off, but his gaze kept drifting back to the two in the back seat.
He had a feeling that sothing had definitely happened between them last night, causing Third Master Fu to look like he was ready to massacre the entire city early in the morning.
Looking at Jiang Moxi’s face, it was obvious sothing was off, so last night it must have been Jiang Moxi forcing herself on Fu Youhan.
As they neared the Technical College entrance, Chi Jing let his imagination run wild.
Just as Jiang Moxi was about to open the car door, Fu Youhan suddenly spoke:
"The drink you had last night isn’t effective imdiately. It will lurk in your body for a year, and any contact with alcohol will trigger it. So my proposition still stands."
Chi Jing pricked up his ears, wanting to understand what the proposition was.
But he heard Jiang Moxi succinctly reject, "No need to consider, I won’t be anyone’s bed partner."
As long as she avoided alcohol, she didn’t need to dean herself out of fear.
Listening to the conversation, Chi Jing looked at Fu Youhan, his face full of confusion.
So sothing did happen last night, but was it Third Master Fu who had forced the issue?
And Third Master Fu still seed intent, proposing Jiang Moxi to be his bed partner?
Was it because he had been chaste for so long that he was undiscriminating?
Even Jiang Moxi, an ugly freak in his eyes, seed attractive enough for him?
"As for last night, we are even. If there’s nothing else, I’m off to class."
Jiang Moxi ant that she had helped Fu Youhan once before, and last night was his repaynt.
But Fu Youhan suspected that it was a tactic by the girl, feigning disinterest to capture his attention.
After all, she had once seduced him at the Jiang Family.
Later, she showed up at Night Color working part-ti, deliberately revealing her true face in front of him.
Then last night, she consud sothing impure and just so happened to run into him on the ninth floor.
All these incidents were perfectly tid, making it hard for him to not think along those lines.
So, as Jiang Moxi got out of the car and left, he regained his usual indifferent deanor, just instructing Chi Jing: "Drive!"
He thought, as long as he didn’t seek her out, she would eventually co to him...
