55: Chapter 55 Sun Yan, you are mine now!

Xu Qianli and Sun Yan quickly returned to the private room.

When questioned by colleagues about why they had been out for so long, they fobbed them off with an excuse about having seen a fight outside and stopping to watch the excitement.

The party continued, with many people busy toasting Xu Qianli, deliberately ingratiating themselves with her.

Xu Qianli responded with a smile to each one, and inevitably drank a few more glasses.

As they drank, someone suggested playing a game to liven up the atmosphere, proposing a competition among the single men and women, with vehement demands that Xu Qianli must participate.

Unable to decline, Xu Qianli agreed, not anticipating that those bastards would be so shameless.

Claiming it was for the game, they forcibly pushed several women toward him, even egging him on to pick one as a girlfriend.

The women, all single, looked at Xu Qianli with inappropriate gazes, some with puppy-dog eyes that clearly showed their interest in him.

Unfortunately for them, Xu Qianli wasn’t interested and brushed them off, leaving them more than a little disappointed.

It wasn’t until late into the night that the party finally ended.

Xu Qianli had drunk quite a bit and was woozy, unable to drive.

A clerk volunteered eagerly to drive Xu Qianli home but was fiercely glared at by the department head, Huang Ling, and shooed away.

Huang Ling wanted to drive Xu Qianli, but he refused and instead called a designated driver to take him, along with Sun Yan, and they left.

They reached the apartment complex where Sun Yan lived, the two drunken figures supporting each other up the stairs, slowly making their way into Sun Yan’s home.

Though still drunk, once inside Sun Yan’s home, Xu Qianli suddenly became much more alert.

Thinking about what was to come, Xu Qianli couldn’t help but stare at Sun Yan, eyes glued to her, more piercing than a wolf’s.

Sun Yan, rattled by his gaze, dared not meet Xu Qianli’s eyes and said softly, “Sit in the living room for a bit.

I’m going to take a shower.”

Facing Xu Qianli, Sun Yan was awkward and bashfully embarrassed, wanting to use the shower as an excuse to dodge him for a bit so she could collect her thoughts and decide if she really wanted to spend the night with Xu Qianli.

As if he had read her mind, Xu Qianli hugged her from behind, “Don’t go, stay with me!”

“Xu Qianli, we shouldn’t be doing this,” Sun Yan said with a delicate voice, her words carrying a hint of helplessness and perhaps a touch of anticipation.

Xu Qianli said, “Sun Yan, don’t worry, if you’re not willing, I won’t force you, I won’t lay a finger on you.

Right now, I just want to talk to you, really.

Come, let’s sit here, I have something I want to talk to you about.”

Reluctant to let go of Sun Yan’s serpentine waist, Xu Qianli led her to the couch to sit down.

He lit a cigarette and gazed at the ceiling at a forty-five-degree angle, puffing away for a while before he began to speak.

“Do you know, in my life, I’ve truly loved two girls…”

Once he started talking, Xu Qianli couldn’t stop, recounting his first love from university days and his ex-girlfriend Xu Shuman, whom he had been with for three years.

Perhaps because he had repressed his feelings for too long and needed someone to confide in, he laid bare the wounds from both relationships to Sun Yan.

He spoke of the entire sequence of events: their meeting, their love, and their breakup, going through both relationships from start to finish.

Sun Yan listened quietly, tears falling uncontrollably as she was moved by Xu Qianli’s stories of love.

She had witnessed her own husband Jiang Li being intimate with another woman today and heard his vicious remarks about her, her heart nearly shattering from the pain, leaving her feeling deeply hurt.

Only now did she truly understand that it wasn’t just her who had been wounded; Xu Qianli too had been hurt by the women he had loved most, not once but twice.

Strangely, Sun Yan felt a kinship in their suffering, empathizing with the pain Xu Qianli had endured, realizing how hurt, vulnerable, and lost he was.

When two wounded hearts collided, Sun Yan’s gaze at Xu Qianli suddenly changed.

Gone were her shyness and repression; she threw herself into Xu Qianli’s arms, cradled his face in her hands, and on her own initiative pressed her lips to his in a kiss.

Unexpectedly, Sun Yan was a bit taken aback as Xu Qianli pushed her away.

“No!”

“Sun, you’re a good woman, but I, Xu Qianli, am not worth much.

Just these past few days, I’ve had several women by my side.”

“I can’t hurt you anymore, I don’t deserve to be with you, I, Xu Qianli, don’t deserve to have you!”

“Okay, you should rest well, I’m leaving.”

Xu Qianli said he was going to leave, but Sun Yan wouldn’t allow it, not only did she not let him go, but she also clung tightly to his waist.

“Don’t you dare leave, I won’t let you!”

“Xu Qianli, I don’t know if I like you or not, but one thing is clear, I really want you to stay tonight.”

“Stay with me tonight, please, I just want a man with me tonight, even if the sky falls down tomorrow—I’m not afraid, I just want you to stay with me!”

Fearing that Xu Qianli would refuse, Sun Yan fiercely tore off her top, her face flushed beautifully, her watery eyes filled with softness, she shyly gazed up at Xu Qianli, spellbound.

“Haven’t you said before, you wanted to see if I’m really a ‘dead fish’ in bed?

You’re a man, you should keep your word.”

“Take me!”

Without giving Xu Qianli a chance to refuse, Sun Yan kissed him aggressively, her arms tightly embracing him again.

Xu Qianli hadn’t expected Sun Yan to have such a passionate side, so he stopped pretending, gripped her waist tightly, returned her feverish kisses, and his hand slowly climbed upward, tearing off the obstructive bra.

With a soft moan, Sun Yan fell into Xu Qianli’s embrace, having made herself so vulnerable, she’d reached her limit and dared not go any further, merely lying submissively, waiting for Xu Qianli’s advance.

Bang, bang, bang…

Suddenly, loud knocking echoed at the door, someone was forcefully banging on it.

Jiang Li’s voice followed quickly.

“Open the door, open the door, you damn woman—open up!”

“Locking the door late at night, keeping your man from coming home?”

“Damn, got pissed off outside, and now can’t even get into my own house, so fucking unlucky!”

“Hurry up and open the door, quickly…”

Hearing Jiang Li’s voice, Sun Yan was startled, her body tensed, instinctively trying to move away from Xu Qianli’s embrace.

Xu Qianli, not wanting her to leave, held her even tighter, as if he wished he could crush her into him.

Far from letting go, he was even more ardent, quickly tearing off the little fabric that remained on her body, laid her on the couch, and started to undress himself.

Realizing what Xu Qianli intended to do, Sun Yan shyly covered her face, unable to look at Xu Qianli.

My god, this guy is too bad, knowing Jiang Li is just outside, yet still wanting to do this, how could he?

Before Sun Yan could linger on her bashfulness, her hands were moved by Xu Qianli, who then leaned in closer.

Xu Qianli gazed at Sun Yan’s beautiful face from a close distance, a mischievous smile on his lips as he said, “Don’t mind him, remember you’re mine tonight, I want you to be Xu Qianli’s woman, unforgettable for a lifetime!”

Sun Yan wanted to say something but couldn’t find the words, a cry of pain escaped her as a sudden sharp pain disrupted her thoughts, tears welling, she clung tightly to Xu Qianli.
