Chapter 3

I tilted my head and fixed my eyes on Pei Ting. Then I said, “What the hell does it have to do with you?”

Pei Ting’s brows snapped together. “You’re a girl. Why is every word out of your mouth so filthy?”

I went on, “What the hell does it have to do with you?”

Pei Ting’s icy expression twisted for a split second. He turned his head away and stopped looking at me, still muttering, “I think you’ve really lost your mind.”

Like a broken bot, I repeated, “What the hell does it have to do with you?”

Pei Ting’s face darkened. Silently, he shifted over and sat somewhere far away from me.

“Pfft.”

Lu Xu burst out laughing. He laughed so hard he was practically shaking, his whole body trembling.

His neck brushed against the sharp glass, and blood began to seep out.

Lu Xu didn’t care at all. He kept laughing.

Only when he’d laughed enough did he look at me again.

There were tears of laughter at the corners of Lu Xu’s eyes. Looking at him now, he finally resembled that obedient, innocent boy from my memories.

I loosened my grip slightly.

Lu Xu said, “With me like this, I can’t transfer you the money.”

Lu Xu blinked innocently, looking utterly helpless.

I reached out directly and started searching Lu Xu’s pants pockets.

For some reason, that idiot Lu Xu let out a muffled groan.

It was a very strange sound.

Far too suggestive.

I pulled out Lu Xu’s phone and held it up in front of him.

Lu Xu took it. After a flurry of taps, my phone chimed from inside my bag not far away.

Only then did I let go, just as I was about to get off him.

Lu Xu suddenly reached out, wrapped an arm around my waist, and pressed me into his arms.

On instinct, I raised my hand and stabbed the bottle toward Lu Xu.

But Lu Xu twisted both my hands behind my back and pinned them there.

I was forced to lean against Lu Xu’s chest.

Lu Xu laughed, his chest shaking beneath me.

I opened my mouth and bit down on the firm pec pressed against my lips.

Hard. I refused to let go. I bit until the taste of blood spread through my mouth.

Clearly, I’d bitten through Lu Xu’s skin.

I wanted to use that to make Lu Xu release me.

But this bastard Lu Xu acted like he couldn’t feel pain.

Another one of those weird, breathy, suggestive groans squeezed out of his throat.

And the thing I was sitting on also turned noticeably hard.

Right then, the private room door was pushed open. Outside stood a slender, delicate figure.

The bullet comments went wild.

[Ahhh, baby girl is here!]

[Our daughter is so sweet and soft! Mommy loves you!]

[Lu Xu, you unfaithful man! I hereby declare that Lu Xu is out of the male lead candidate pool!]

[I saw it just now. Xiao Xingzhou was the one who messaged Xie Zhaozhao and told her to come. Tsk, tsk. What a scheming man.]

[LMAO. He’ll do anything to get his wife.]

[No, seriously, when is this female supporting character going to exit the stage? She’s such an eyesore.]

[? Xie Zhaozhao hasn’t even confirmed a relationship with any of the male leads yet, right? Why are the comments acting like she’s the official girlfriend confronting a mistress?]

[? Is the person above sick? Trying to criticize the female lead again, are you? It’s obviously the three male leads who can’t make up their minds, wavering between the female lead and the supporting character.]

[Exactly. The three male leads are the real scum here.]
