..

Victoria Hotel.

When the woman walked out wrapped in a towel, she found Mo Jiushang leaning against the headboard and dozing off.

She reached out and poked his arm.

Mo Jiushang opened his eyes. His clear and light eyes seemed to be covered by a thin layer of mist due to the lingering sleepiness. It was mysterious and deep.

He had to be said that he was really very good-looking.

The corner of the woman’s lips curled up into a faint smile. Her cold fingers touched his cheek. “Go take a bath.”

It was the first time that Mo Jiushang was so close to a woman, but he did not feel uncomfortable. He turned over and got off the bed.

Soon, the sound of water splashing came from the bathroom.

The woman lay on the bed, pulled off the towel on her body, and stared at the ceiling in a daze.

Hearing the footsteps, she turned her head.

With just a glance, a hint of surprise flashed across her dead silent eyes.

The water droplets on her messy black hair slid past his angular side profile and landed on his partially visible chest. Finally, they went deep into the white bathrobe, making people have the urge to strip him naked.

Mo Jiushang lay on the other side of the bed.

The woman seemed to be a little nervous, and her fingers that were holding the corner of the blanket turned slightly white.

“You, What’s Your Name?”

“Mo Jiushang.”

“Which Shang?”

“Li Shang.”

The woman nodded and introduced herself. “My name is Ji Ning.”

“OH.”

Ji Ning realized that this man spoke so little that it was pitiful. No one could guess what he was thinking or what his purpose was.

Suddenly, Mo Jiushang turned off the lights, and the room fell into darkness.

In the silence, Ji Ning could hear the sound of her heart beating violently.

Even though she was mentally prepared, this was her first time, after all, so it was inevitable for her to be nervous.

The thought of retreating arose in her mind, but images of unbearable scenes flashed through her mind.

She clenched her fists, and her gaze became firm.

As time passed, the nervousness in Ji Ning’s heart turned into doubt.

Why isn’t he here yet?

Ji Ning mustered up her courage and carefully leaned over. “Mo Jiushang?”

She called out to him softly, but he didn’t respond. All she could hear was his even breathing.

Ji Ning was a little dumbfounded.

Didn’t he ask her to sleep with him twice just to have sex with her?

Could she have misunderstood?

“Mo Jiushang…”

Ji Ning’s finger had just poked Mo Jiushang’s face when Mo Jiushang suddenly stretched out his long arm and hugged her whole body in his arms. His sleepy and hoarse voice came from above her head.

“Shut up and sleep.”

He really did ask her to sleep with him purely..

Ji Ning was a little flustered.

She had seen many hypocrites who only wanted to have sex with her. She truly found it strange that Mo Jiushang was so pure and unpretentious.

Ji Ning rested his head on his chest. She could hear the strong heartbeat in his chest.

There was no smell of cigarettes or perfume on his body. He was as clean as a spring. He wrapped her up gently. Ji Ning’s initially agitated emotions gradually calmed down.

This embrace was like a safe haven. It gave her a sense of security that she had not felt in a long time.

Unknowingly, she fell asleep.

The thick curtains were drawn in the room. When she woke up, even though the sky was already bright, the light was still very dim.

Ji Ning yawned. It had been a long time since she had slept so peacefully. Even the nightmares that would haunt her every night were gone.

She raised her head and looked at Mo Jiushang, who was still sleeping.

His sleeping posture was very well-behaved. One of his hands was around her waist, while the other was around her lower abdomen. His messy hair hung seductively on his brows and eyes.

Because he had spent so many years in the dark, his face was a little pale, and his handsome features were like a beautiful ink painting.
