Tang Qingli driving the car twitched at the corner of his mouth, full of embarrassment.
But the person in question remained unfazed, reaching out to drag her aside to prevent her from causing further trouble.
Gu Lili climbed onto the seat, looking at the handsome man beside her with blurred eyes and a light laugh, "You really are good-looking..."
Long Yubei paid her no heed, looking out the window instead.
In a fleeting moment, they arrived at the entrance of a nearby hotel.
"Young Master, we've arrived."
Not hearing a response, Tang Qingli was about to turn around when the curtain between the front and back seats was suddenly lowered.
"Drive home."
"Yes."
Long Yubei's face was particularly ugly because, at that moment, Gu Lili was tightly hugging his arm, refusing to let go, and he really wanted to push her out just like that.
But he also knew that if he really did that, he might become tomorrow's headline.
She disregarded everything and wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning her whole body against him.
"Qing Li, stop the car."
Tang Qingli stopped the vehicle, "Young Master, what's wrong?"
"Take a taxi and go back first."
Tang Qingli quickly understood his young master's intention and left the car immediately.
Long Yubei then turned his gaze directly to Gu Lili, under the streetlight, her small, palm-sized face was fair, with well-proportioned and beautiful features—a rare beauty.
Though he usually forbade women, he resisted any woman who threw herself at him. However, he lost self-control with this stranger he met for the first time.
...
At over six o'clock in the morning, Gu Lili woke up.
She grimaced as if she had been run over.
She slowly sat up and glanced around the room she was in.
The memories of the previous night came flooding back, making her feel as though she was in an ice cellar.
As she was about to get out of bed, the bathroom door opened, and he came out.
Wet black short hair, broad shoulders, a slim waist, long legs, and deep eyes gazing at her on the bed.
Gu Lili dived back under the covers, covering her head.
Seeing her do this, Long Yubei's lips curled into a smile, "You were so shameless last night, and now you're too scared to see people?"
Gu Lili popped her head out, huffily retorted, "Who's too scared to see you? Who was shameless? I wasn't!"
Long Yubei's eyes darkened with a flicker of amusement, he slowly approached her, stopping half a foot from her face, "Still denying it? You clung to me desperately last night. Tell me, little bumpkin, are you satisfied now?"
