Forty or fifty minutes later.

Su Yang was getting ready to go to the bathroom for a shower and was just about to turn over and get out of bed.

Zhao Mengrou sleepily reached out with her soft hand and pulled him back. "Don't go~ Don't go."

Su Yang turned to look at her. Her eyes were still closed, but she continued mumbling something intermittently.

"Go to sleep first. I'm going to take a shower." He gently removed Zhao Mengrou's hand, then got up and went to the bathroom for a quick cold shower.

Under the stimulation of the icy water, nearly all the alcohol in Su Yang's body dissipated.

He hummed as he showered.

Ding! The host is in a pleasant mood and enjoying himself immensely. Reward: 1,000,000 yuan. Ding! The host is in an exceptionally good mood. Rewarding the host with an Aston Martin DBX707, worth 3.5 million yuan. The vehicle has been parked in Parking Space 1213, Area A, in the underground parking lot of the West Hotel.

Holy crap! Another car!

It's even Martin's SUV. Not bad, not bad. 707 horsepower and a massive V8—awesome!

I was just missing a larger car.

Five minutes later, Su Yang happily finished his shower and walked out of the bathroom.

By then, Zhao Mengrou had fallen completely asleep.

He walked over to Zhao Mengrou and took a look at her, then turned and left the room, closing the door behind him.

When he reached the suite's living room, Su Yang was just about to sleep on the sofa when his gaze swept toward Gu Xiaoman's room in the corner. The door was wide open, and the light inside was still on.

He walked over to take a look and saw that Gu Xiaoman had somehow fallen onto the floor.

Fortunately, there was a carpet beneath the bed, so she had not been seriously hurt by the fall.

She was lying on her side on the carpet, her hair disheveled.

At the sight, Su Yang unconsciously swallowed. Then he shook his head, walked over, and lifted Gu Xiaoman horizontally, placing her on the bed.

The moment he set her down, Gu Xiaoman's hazy eyes flew open. Seeing Su Yang in front of her, she instinctively wrapped an arm around his neck and mumbled drunkenly, "Alcohol... Let's drink... I can still drink!"

"Still drinking? One more drink and you'll pass out completely."

As they spoke, their noses touched, and they breathed in each other's hot air.

Su Yang felt his blood surge again. Gritting his teeth, he climbed onto the bed.

After who knew how long, Su Yang lay on the bed and rested for a while before getting up and leaving the room.

After taking another shower in the bathroom of the suite's living room, Su Yang finally went to sleep on the sofa.

Meanwhile, inside Gu Xiaoman's room.

She gently lifted the covers. Her face was flushed, and she looked alluring.

She raised her head and glanced at the crack in the door. Seeing that the lights outside had been turned off, she lifted the covers and tiptoed into the bathroom attached to the room to use the toilet.

Ahhh, how could this happen?! This is so embarrassing! How am I supposed to face him tomorrow?!

At the thought, Gu Xiaoman's face instantly reddened. However, because of her personality, she took such matters in stride.

She would not develop any psychological burden because of this. In fact, she even found it somewhat thrilling. Her blushing was merely an instinctive reaction as a woman.

Besides, her first impression of Su Yang had been excellent. In her eyes, Su Yang was handsome, well-built, wealthy, and good-natured.

A man like that held immense appeal for a mature woman like her, who had been single for a long time.

However, she knew very well that a tall, rich, and handsome man like Su Yang would inevitably have many women around him. She had no advantage in terms of age, so she had never planned on having anything to do with Su Yang.

What she had not expected was that Su Yang would be so impressive.

At the thought, she exhaled and muttered with a flushed face, "This guy is pretty amazing~~"

Ding! Gu Xiaoman's favorability toward the host has increased to 65. Reward: 500,000 yuan.

Su Yang, who had not yet fallen asleep, smiled.

The night passed quickly.

At nine the next morning, Su Yang hazily woke up on the sofa.

He stretched, raised his hand to check the time, then turned over and sat up.

The moment he sat up, he saw that the doors to Zhao Mengrou's and Gu Xiaoman's rooms were open, but the women inside had disappeared.

The entire suite was quiet. The only sound was his breathing.

"What's going on? They left so early?"

"What a shame. I was planning to help them sober up again. What a pity!"

As Su Yang spoke, he took out his phone and looked at it. There were two unread WeChat messages on the screen.

He opened them one by one. The first was from Zhao Mengrou.

—Su Yang, I suddenly remembered that something came up at home today, so I left first.

—About what happened last night... It was an accident. Hurry up and forget it!!

—Also, if you dare say a single word about this, you're dead, got it?!! [fist emoji]

Su Yang burst out laughing when he read the messages.

"You were the one who pulled me down in the first place. But I thought you didn't know. I didn't expect you to know everything. I just don't know whether you remember what happened afterward. You probably don't."

As he spoke, he typed out a reply.

—I'd like to forget too, but I can't~~

Then he sent a sticker of someone snickering and beckoning with a finger before exiting the chat.

The other message was from Gu Xiaoman.

Su Yang felt somewhat guilty when he opened the chat. After all, he and Gu Xiaoman had only met the day before.

He had no idea what kind of person Gu Xiaoman was. If she happened to be very conservative about such matters, he would be in serious trouble.

With Zhao Mengrou, it had been because she had made the first move. The situation had been urgent, and once the arrow was on the string, it had to be released. But with Gu Xiaoman, strictly speaking, Su Yang had been the one who initiated the battle.

He opened the chat nervously.

—Su Yang, I didn't expect you to be so impressive. [shy emoji]

—But it would be best if this stayed between you and me.

—Also, don't think I didn't know what you did before coming to my room yesterday. [fist emoji]

—Be more careful next time!
