Chapter 39 had hit the nail on the head

The sexy piece of cloth she had on covered nothing. If she were to really wear it, she wouldn't have the courage to face Huo Nanchen. Gu Ruochu pushed open the bathroom door and quickly moved towards the wardrobe to change into her pajamas.

She did not notice Huo Nanchen leaning against the headboard of the large European-style soft bed, reading a magazine. When he heard the bathroom door open, he subconsciously raised his head.

Gu Ruochu had just touched the wardrobe door when she felt a strong gaze over her body. Gradually, it seemed as if a burning flame was spreading all over her.

She suddenly had an ominous feeling and turned around. Huo Nanchen stared at her with a noble and cold expression, but his gaze was very subtle.

At that moment, their eyes met.

Gu Ruochu stuttered as she searched for words.

Her nightgown was very revealing, it was as if she wore nothing at all.

She did not know what to make of his expression, and they just stared at each other for a few seconds.

He looked at her. His eyes did not waver as lit up with a fiery light. It was as if the stars in the dark night sky had suddenly flashed and then turned into a deep pool with no ripples.

There was a thick layer of fog in the depths of his eyes. His deep and mesmerizing eyes stared fixedly at her as he looked at her body. He showed no hesitation.

Huo Nanchen took in the erotic scene in front of him. A restlessness he had never experienced passed through his lower abdomen like an electric current. He had never felt this way in his twenty-five-year-old life. He felt as if his entire body was burning with anger.

He casually threw the magazine on the table and could not read another word. He suddenly felt that the air was so stuffy. He could not breathe.

The air conditioner was not low, why was it so hot?

"When did you come in?" Gu Ruochu asked, aiming to break the awkward atmosphere. No matter how calm she normally was, she could not stay calm now.

Would Huo Nanchen think she was trying to seduce him on purpose?

"I just came in. Didn't you hear me? What are those pieces of ragged cloth on you?"

He continued to stare at her. The sight before him made his ears inexplicably red, but one could not tell if they did not look carefully. The gown suited any man's most wicked taste. His temptation was silent and undetectable.

Gu Ruochu could not speak.

There was not a single piece of ordinary pajamas in her wardrobe. All of them were sexy lingerie!

Her face was stiff as she scanned the room. She then reached and pulled out an ordinary dress. Immediately, Huo Nanchen's tall figure leaned in from behind. He reached out with his fair and slender hand and closed the wardrobe behind Gu Ruochu.

His hand reached out from behind and for a moment, it looked like he was hugging her. Gu Ruochu moved slightly and glanced sideways at him. Her gaze was deep and hot.

With this movement, their bodies came into contact. His chest was warm and firm. He had a perfect body. Gu Ruochu's entire body stiffened. She wondered if he wanted to take advantage of her.

Gu Ruochu remembered that he had said that he would never fall in love with her. It was better not to instigate anything. There was no need to cause any misunderstandings.

She ignored Huo Nanchen's reaction and walked towards the computer. She first wanted to sign an agreement with Huo Nanchen so that her future path would be smoother. She had plans to return to the entertainment industry.

Huo Nanchen's gaze fell on her departing figure, and an indescribable feeling suddenly emerged in his heart.
