Chapter 20: I've Got You

Some memories, no matter how much time passes, are difficult to forget even a bit. They are like a fine aged wine, becoming more fragrant with each passing year.

The first encounter between Rose and Yang Chen was bloody and dramatic. As Rose slowly narrated this memory with her soft, feminine voice, Yang Chen became somewhat lost in thought. The two of them had met six months ago, thanks to a chance encounter where they saved each other's lives. Since then, they had maintained a subtle and ambiguous relationship through occasional simple interactions. There was a certain distance, a hint of allure, and a touch of excitement.

Gathering her silky black hair, Rose sat on the bed, smiling with a hint of intoxication. "Yang Chen, do you know what I was thinking when you didn't show up back then?"

"What were you thinking?" Yang Chen asked.

"I was thinking about the fairy tales my mother used to tell me when I was a child. In those stories, the fragile princess would always have a prince on a white horse come to her rescue from the clutches of evil and demons. And the ending of the story would always be 'And they lived happily ever after.' I used to think that was such a boring and ridiculous phrase... But you have made it all come true," Rose said with excitement shining in her eyes, gazing deeply at Yang Chen.

Yang Chen rubbed his nose. "I never expected you to have such a sentimental and childlike side."

"Hehe..." Rose chuckled softly. "How should I put it... I know I'm not a princess, and you're not a white horse prince... Well, you're not even a black horse prince. You descended out of nowhere, like a mysterious figure. But at that time, I felt that none of that mattered... All I wanted was to have someone like you by my side. Someone who doesn't need to be with me all the time, someone who can make me happy. Just someone who can lend me a hand when I can't go on, someone who can provide a comforting embrace when I'm sad, so that I don't feel so helpless and lonely. That's enough for me..."

"Rose..." Yang Chen reached out and gently caressed her smooth, moist cheek. "I'll be honest with you. I'm not a good man. Over the years, I've been involved with countless women. You also mentioned that you don't need a powerful ally. With your qualities, perhaps finding an honest and devoted man would be better..."

"It's impossible," Rose said mischievously, her eyes shining. "Yang Chen, do you know the relationship between a monkey troop and the Monkey King?"

"Monkey troop? Monkey King?" Yang Chen puzzled. "What are you trying to say?"

"The Monkey King is the strongest male in the entire monkey troop, and all the female monkeys become his mating partners. It's the instinct of monkeys. The female monkeys pursue the strongest male because they want their offspring to have stronger genes. So when they see the most powerful Monkey King, they can't tolerate any other male monkeys. Actually, what's the difference in human society? From ancient emperors to the powerful men of today, they have multiple wives and concubines. It may not always be consensual, but who can say for certain that the women who follow them are completely coerced? If there's the best, why settle for anything less?"

Yang Chen couldn't help but smile wryly. "Are you saying we've turned into monkeys?"

"I'm just making an analogy. I just want to tell you that since our first meeting, there will never be another person in my eyes for the rest of my life... Maybe you're not the most powerful person in the world, but you are the most powerful in my heart..."

Rose's gaze grew resolute as she looked straight into Yang Chen's eyes. "I love you, Yang Chen."

"..."

After a silence that lasted for more than a minute, a smile gradually spread across Yang Chen's face. It carried a sense of relief and playfulness as he said, "You really are a foolish woman."

Rose, who had been incredibly anxious just a moment ago, now revealed a look of joy and shook her head. "So what if I'm a foolish woman? I have no regrets!"

"Do you know what I originally came here to do today?" Yang Chen's gaze traveled up and down, as if trying to peek beneath Rose's nightgown.

Although Rose had already prepared herself mentally, being unabashedly scrutinized by Yang Chen's gaze still made her blush and her heart race. Rarely, she showed a hint of shyness. "What... What do you want to do?"

Yang Chen slowly leaned in closer to Rose's beautiful and sparkling earlobe, lightly nibbling on the tender pink flesh...

"Ying..."

Rose's entire body tingled as if an electric current surged through her, and she leaned softly against Yang Chen's chest, panting softly.

"I came here today to devour this, delicate mother monkey of yours..."

Before Rose could react, Yang Chen let out a long-suppressed low growl and abruptly wrapped his arms around her slender waist, throwing her delicate and supple body onto the center of the large bed!

Startled by the sudden rush of pleasure, Rose tightly closed her eyes, allowing Yang Chen to caress, knead, kiss, and suck on her body. Her small hands firmly gripped the towel blanket on the bed...

The smooth silk nightgown was roughly pulled away from her body, revealing Snow's snow-white skin to the air, emitting an intoxicating allure.

As if not willing to leave any inch of her skin untouched, Yang Chen's fiery kisses started from her delicate navel, gliding up her smooth abdomen without hesitation. He forcefully removed the barely-there black lace bra, engulfing and nibbling on the plump D-cup breasts.

Perhaps it had been too long since he had enjoyed such a mature and enchanting body in such a clear state of mind, Yang Chen felt his blood boiling uncontrollably.

"It's so fragrant..."

Rose, who usually took the lead, now blushed and appeared shy and bashful like an innocent young girl. Upon hearing such explicit praise, her cheeks grew even redder, and she couldn't respond.

Finally, when Yang Chen's lips met Rose's cherry lips, thunder rumbled, and their wet tongues began to entwine and dance passionately. Yang Chen greedily tasted Rose's sweet nectar, unable to release her lips, only reluctantly moving to other areas when she struggled for breath.

Rose was completely lost in the fiery entanglement, her body melting like water. Every part of her became a sensitive nerve ending, and even the slightest touch turned the already flooded marshland into a rushing river.

When Yang Chen released all restraints on their bodies and his hand reached towards Rose's mysterious garden, the overwhelming flood of her nectar instantly accelerated Yang Chen's hormone secretion!

"Oh? Rose, my darling, I didn't know you were this sensitive. Your waters could bathe an entire army..."

"Mmm..." Rose couldn't contain her embarrassment and turned her head away. She had never experienced such a situation before and couldn't find the words to express herself, only managing to protest vaguely.

Unable to bear it any longer, Yang Chen stopped speaking. He unleashed his rigid and imposing member, forcefully penetrating Rose's delicate bud...

Rose felt as if half of her body had been ruthlessly torn apart. The momentary pain was accompanied by a bittersweet happiness, causing tears to flow down her cheeks. Soon after, wave after wave of indescribable pleasure followed...

In an instant, the temperature in the room skyrocketed, with the man's deep breaths intertwining with the woman's seductive moans of ecstasy.
