Standing under the shower, Rong Si turned on the cold water. Just like that, he let it wash over his head, trying to chase away the unbearable heat.
However, he could still see Su Jiu trapped by him. Her eyes were watery, and her face was red. The image of her letting him do whatever he wanted kept appearing in his mind, provoking him.
Unable to bear it, Rong Si closed his eyes and pressed his thin lips together. He had to resolve it himself.
The water in the bathroom continued to rush down. After a long while, a low muffled groan seemed to come from inside.

After what had happened, Su Jiu was too embarrassed to meet the little villain. She had a sleepless night. When she woke up the next day, the dark circles under her eyes were obvious.
The strawberry marks on her neck had not faded. Embarrassed, she changed into a shirt and let the collar cover the marks before leaving the room with relief.
As soon as she went out, she saw a tall figure standing in the corridor. At first glance, she thought it was Rong Si. Her heart raced, and her ears turned red.
However, when she saw that it was Han Siye and not Rong Si, she heaved a huge sigh of relief.
Han Siye had been thinking about how to explain what happened the previous day to her. When he heard the noise behind him, he quickly turned around.
Meeting Su Jiu’s clear eyes, he suddenly felt embarrassed. However, he realized that her ears were slightly red, and she seemed to be a little shy. His heart skipped a beat.
What’s wrong with Little Jiu? Did I do something out of line to her when I was drunk yesterday?
“Little Jiu, yesterday I—”
She looked at him coolly. “Say no more. I know.”
“No, Little Jiu, I didn’t mean to. I didn’t expect my alcohol tolerance to be that bad! No, it’s not that I’m bad. It’s that Rong Si kid who set me up!”
“How did he set you up? I think you were the one who took him for a drink!”
“That kid doesn’t look like someone who can drink, but what happened? He can drink even more than me!” Han Siye remembered that when he had called Little Jiu, he had been sober. In the end, after the call, the other kid had already started on the third bottle and his expression had not changed. Not wanting to be left behind, Han Siye continued to compete with him.
At last, the wine they had ordered came, too, and Han Siye had become incapable of drinking any more. His head began to swim, and he didn’t know when he collapsed afterward.
He was already in the room when he woke up. He had no idea what had happened in between.
But what he remembered was that just before he had passed out drunk, Rong Si was still leisurely sipping red wine from a glass opposite him. He did not show any signs of being drunk at all, and he looked at him with such contempt…
Su Jiu was surprised. “He can drink more than you? No way! You used to attend banquets. You should be able to hold your liquor.”
“That’s what I thought. Unfortunately, it’s not,” Han Siye said, his expression turning serious. “Little Jiu, you should investigate that kid. Why is he so good at drinking?”
Su Jiu was speechless.
Is the little villain a good drinker?
That isn’t right. She remembered suddenly. The little villain had worked in a bar for a while before, so he must have drunk a lot. And some people were born with high alcohol tolerance. Surely he doesn’t belong in that category?
Wait a minute. If he can hold his liquor, then yesterday… was he really drunk, or was he just pretending?
At the thought of this, Su Jiu could no longer remain calm!
However, she had no intention of getting angry. Instead, she blushed, and her heart started beating.
Unexpectedly, the little villain, who looked serious, cold, and abstinent, had such a wild side!
