However...
"Hm?"The moment his fingers brushed past, the seductive smile froze. To his surprise, her body actually...
He withdrew his hand and quickly laid her flat on the sofa.
"You... no! Don't!"His sudden action made Yao Yao pale with fear. But what he did next chilled her heart even more."No!"
Her skirt, along with her underwear, was pulled down in one swift motion. Despair flooded her as she shut her eyes tight, her petite body left completely exposed under his gaze.
"You?!"Grabbing her wrist with one hand, he lifted her up like a doll, staring at her as if admiring a piece of art."Damned little thing, tell me — are you lying to me? How old are you, really?!"A temptress. If this girl was truly under twenty, then she was one rare, dangerous temptress.
At that moment, Ye Ao Tian felt his whole body burn with desire, overwhelmed by an almost uncontrollable urge.
"Why..."
"Hm?"Her choked sobs pulled his attention back. He looked up and met her tear-streaked face, tilting his head in confusion."What are you saying, little thing?"
"Why are you doing this to me? Isn't this... something only a husband and wife would do? Why are you doing this? When I first met you..."
"I thought you were so bright, so perfect... but now, you're no different from a thug or a criminal. What did I ever do to you? Why do you humiliate me again and again?"
She couldn't understand. A man like him, who could have anyone, why bother tormenting her? Was it because she once tried to set him up? Reported him?
Ye Ao Tian's face darkened at her words.
"Thug? Criminal? Heh..."
A cold light flashed in his eyes. He leaned in close, whispering:
"You really are pure... but I love turning pure little things like you filthy and cheap. You hate it now, don't you? Don't worry — one day you'll beg me to touch you."
He let go.
She fell hard onto the sofa.
Ye Ao Tian quickly untied the necktie from her wrists, grabbed a disc from his desk, and tossed it onto her exposed body.
"Sweetheart, go home and enjoy watching yourself. Maybe you'll even start to like it."
Then he left.
Walking alone under the moonlight, Yao Yao wiped her tears as she wandered the street. Her small figure looked so fragile in the night.
Don't cry, don't cry. If Mom sees, she'll know something's wrong.
The shame and pain knotted deep inside her. She wanted to forget, like she did two years ago, but it was impossible.
Just then, whistles echoed from the roadside.
"Hey, sweetheart!"
A few thugs leaned against a wall, whistling and mocking.
Yao Yao lowered her head and walked past them as if she heard nothing.
"Hey, who bullied you? Let us help you out."
They blocked her path.
"Hey, we're talking to you, girl. Can't speak?"
A blond thug lifted her chin roughly.
"Knew it. She's a real beauty."
"Crying, but still cute."
"Let me go!"
Yao Yao forced back her tears and slapped his hand away.
"Feisty little thing, huh?" another man laughed. "Come on, let's have some fun. You'll forget all about your troubles soon."
Two thugs moved in, one on each side, grabbing her shoulders.
Just then, the roar of a Bugatti Veyron broke the silence.
Inside, Ye Ao Tian sat at the wheel, his expression cold and distant. Beside him, the glamorous star Li Mei Yun leaned over.
"Ao Tian, I missed you. Can I stay at your place tonight?"
"Up to you."
"Thanks, Ao Tian." She smiled sweetly, placing a light kiss on his cheek.
He smirked, glancing sideways.
"Aren't you afraid of the paparazzi?"
"If you're not, I'm not."
He chuckled.
Up ahead, the light turned red, and he hit the brakes.
Faint cries echoed through the night.
"Help! Somebody help me!"
His brows furrowed slightly. He glanced at the rearview mirror.
Not far behind, on the side of the road, Yao Yao was surrounded by thugs, struggling.
