Lu Yan was a man who had seen the world in its entirety and possessed everything when he was still young and frivolous, which included power, fame and women. Although he was not perfect, he was a trustworthy man.
Once he had chosen a woman, there would only be this woman in his whole life.
He was a man with many vices and flaws and the only thing that was clean about him was… his heart.
His heart, which had been hardened by the ravages of time and vicissitudes of life, had never been touched by any woman before.
Actually, he had wanted to know how it was like to adore someone.
He wanted to experience what it was like to be in love.
At this point, he heard a commotion and someone said, “Come quickly and see, President Gu and Young Madam Gu have arrived, and… Miss An’an is also here.”
An’an.
This name made Lu Yan’s face quiver. He turned his broad, muscular body around and looked towards the door.
Gu Mohan entered holding Tang Mo’er’s little hand and they were followed by An’an.
“Wow, Miss An’an is so pretty. When she stands with Tang Mo’er, they’re like a beautiful painting. All eyes are on them.”
“It has been so many years and this is the first time Miss An’an is making a public appearance. I suppose Miss An’an is going to formally enter the nobility ranks in Capital.”
“Miss An’an is already eighteen years old. What a ravishing beauty! In the future, many young masters from prestigious families will definitely be courting her.” …
Lu Yan looked at An’an and shock flashed across his brown eyes.
Today An’an was wearing a white muslin dress and her pitch-black hair was plaited behind her back. Her eyes were icy cold and her facial features looked like they had been exquisitely drawn by an artist. Her delicate skin was dewy and she was breathtakingly beautiful.
Eighteen-year-old An’an was indeed a ravishing little beauty.
When she was with Lu Yan, she always wore loose cotton white dresses and this was the first time that she traded loose dresses for clothing that accentuated her slender waist.
Lu Yan’s eyes swept her entire body. Usually, her figure was concealed under loose dresses and it seemed like she did not have any curves. Today, he could see a hint of her cleavage and her waist was so slender he was certain he could use one large palm to easily span it.
The muslin dress cascaded down her thighs, which were as white as the suet of a sheep. She was only eighteen years old and she had very long and slender legs.
Lu Yan felt his mouth turn dry. This was the first time that he felt she had what every woman should had. Although she was not as voluptuous as some other women, she was delicate and exuded the forbidden charm of a young woman.
“Master Yan, I wish you a happy engagement.” At this point, Gu Mohan walked over.
Lu Yan curved his thin lips. “Thank you, President Gu.”
“Mr Gu, he is…” Tang Mo’er was confused.
“He is Master Yan.”
Lu Yan glanced at Tang Mo’er and he knew that Tang Mo’er was starting to lose her memory. The final effect of the love pea poison was the loss of one’s memory, followed only by the finality of death.
At this juncture, other Chief Executive Officers walked over. “Miss An’an, Master Yan’s engagement banquet is today. What present have you prepared for Master Yan?”
“Yes, Miss An’an, Master Yan has raised you up for thirteen years. He is akin to being half of your father. For the engagement banquet today, surely you didn’t come empty-handed?”…
An’an walked over and arrived at Lu Yan’s side. She raised her head and looked at the man’s handsome face, curved her lotus-like little lips and delicately said, “Of course I have prepared a present.”
“What present? Quickly take it out, we are all anticipating to see it.” Everyone laughed.
“I can’t tell you all about the present that I have prepared. I can only reveal it to Master Yan.”
These words made everyone even more eager, giving rise to a mysterious air about An’an’s present. “Master Yan, Miss An’an wants to tell you about the present. Quickly hear her out.”
Lu Yan’s brown eyes landed on An’an’s youthful and beautiful face. He did not budge.
An’an took the initiative and tiptoed. She leaned her delicate body against the man’s muscular body.
Both of them were in close proximity to each other. Lu Yan sniffed the faint and sweet milky scent from her body, which was very captivating.
But, there was another unique scent emanating from her body.
Lu Yan’s handsome nose wrinkled. He sniffed again, but the scent seemed to have disappeared.
At this point, the girl’s lotus-like small lips were close to his ear. Her voice was so soft that only both of them could hear. “Ah Yan, do I smell nice?”
Lu Yan’s thick eyelashes moved a little and his eyes blazed coldly. There was a problem with the scent.
“Ah Yan, this is my present for your engagement, the ‘Aphrodisiac Scent’”. After speaking, An’an left.
Lu Yan viciously glared at An’an. He wished he could grab hold of her, lift up her skirt and hit her on her little bottom.
She was indeed outrageous to have drugged him.
Lu Yan felt his body gradually becoming warm and he felt restless within.
“Master Yan, can the engagement banquet commence?” Someone came over to ask.
Lu Yan tried to suppress the rising heat within his body and said, “Let’s wait for a while, Uncle Jin is still not here.”
Lu Jinwen was attending the engagement banquet today.
Gu Mohan looked down at the branded watch on his defined wrist. Lu Jinwen should have arrived already.
He held Tang Mo’er’s delicate little hand in his palm and gently squeezed it. “Mo’er, are you cold?”
Today, Tang Mo’er was wearing a long pink dress, with her long silky hair hanging loosely around her shoulders. She looked at Gu Mohan with her bright eyes and gently shook her head. “I’m not cold, but Mr Gu, when can we go back?”
She did not enjoy being there. It was so boring and she did not recognize anyone there.
Gu Mohan’s low and irresistible voice was laced with tenderness and adoration. “Very soon. Mo’er has to persevere for a while longer.”
Time went by, but Lu Jinwen was still nowhere to be seen.
It was already past the time that had been arranged beforehand.
The distinguished guests at the engagement banquet were flummoxed. At this point, Lu Yan whipped out his cell phone and dialed Lu Jinwen’s cell phone number.
The melodious sound of the cell phone ringtone rang once and the person on the other line picked up the phone. “Hello.”
It was not Lu Jinwen’s voice. It was… Lu Qi’er.
“Hello, Big Brother, I’m sorry, my father and I can’t attend your engagement banquet. We are now at the airport and we will be flying to Capital later,” Lu Qi’er said.
Lu Qi’er and Lu Jinwen were at the airport and they would be flying off soon.
Gu Mohan overheard Lu Qi’er’s voice, which radiated faint excitement and happiness. As long as she flew away, there would not be any more worries.
Gu Mohan arched his good-looking eyebrows and his thin lips curved into a derisive smile.
“Understood.” Lu Yan promptly hung up the phone.
Lu Jinwen was unable to attend the engagement banquet.
“Master Yan, can we commence the banquet now?” Someone else came over to ask. It was almost past the auspicious time.
Lu Yan’s Adam apple bobbed and his muscular torso became increasingly numb. The aphrodisiac scent on An’an was too strong and he found his heavy control threatening to shatter into nothingness.
