You're the best in all of Capital City

Ye Nanshen's shirt was huge.

But it still only reached her thighs.

Gu Luosheng hesitated... her own clothes were all wet.

Whatever, I'll just go out like this. It's not like he can get it up anyway.

Ye Nanshen, who was watching the financial news: ???

Why did she keep dragging him into this?

Had he really been too nice to this woman?

Gu Luosheng emerged from the bathroom with absolute confidence.

Ye Nanshen looked up and caught sight of her incredibly slender waist.

An oversized white shirt enveloped her slim figure, leaving her fair legs exposed. They were almost dazzling.

A much better sight than the financial news.

Ye Nanshen didn't consider himself someone who cared about looks, but that strange feeling rose in his chest again.

This little thing... she really was a temptress.

He kept losing control around her, over and over again.

Even more absurdly, he was still holding himself back from throwing her out.

Ye Nanshen pressed his brow, lowered his eyes, then beckoned to her. "Come here."

Gu Luosheng instinctively walked toward him.

Gu Luosheng figured she had probably been ordered around for so long that obedience had become second nature.

She dawdled on her way over, failing to notice something on the floor. Just as she was about to step on it, Ye Nanshen reached out and pulled her straight into his arms.

Feeling the warm, soft body in his arms, Ye Nanshen gave in to the impulse and squeezed her soft curves twice.

His lips curved slightly. They felt nice.

She looked slender, but in reality... she had curves in all the right places.

Gu Luosheng hadn't expected him to do that, and an involuntary little sound escaped her.

Fuck, did he just grope me???

It took Gu Luosheng two or three seconds to come back to her senses.

! That was my first time!

At least he's decent-looking, so it's not much of a loss. Besides... I've touched him too. That makes us even, right?

Ye Nanshen raised an eyebrow.

"So? You like handsome men?" Ye Nanshen asked out of nowhere.

"Of course. Looks can't put food on the table, but they're easy on the eyes, and they put you in a good mood." Gu Luosheng smiled, answering without any guard up.

She regretted it the moment she finished.

Oh my god, why was she telling a major villain all this?

"I see." To her surprise, Ye Nanshen actually took her words to heart.

He rolled over, pinning her beneath him.

"You think I can't get it up?" Ye Nanshen's eyes darkened unreadably as he asked the question outright.

Gu Luosheng's heart lurched. Could he really just say that out loud?

Gu Luosheng swallowed. "Of course not! That's just a bunch of immature brats spreading rumors. Who would dare say you can't? I'll deal with them for you. Of course you can. I think you're the best in all of Capital City."

By the end, Gu Luosheng even gave him a thumbs-up. She figured... that should have been more than enough flattery.

Ye Nanshen scoffed. "Seems a certain little thing hasn't been honest, so... she needs to experience it for herself."

His voice was calm and unhurried.

Gu Luosheng didn't understand what he meant.

Until the next second, when Gu Luosheng realized two of her buttons had been undone.

"No!" Gu Luosheng's eyes widened, and she instinctively resisted.

Ye Nanshen's gaze grew colder and colder.

She'd sounded so confident in her head a moment ago. Now she was chickening out.

"No what?" His voice was low, carrying a seductive edge, as though coaxing her to keep talking.

"Anything beyond this is against the rules! You can't do it!" Gu Luosheng had been given a second chance at life. She couldn't just give away her first time like this.

Seeing her flushed face, Ye Nanshen suddenly felt like teasing her.

He caught her chin. "Weren't you so sure of yourself just now? Scared already?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ye. I didn't mean to provoke you. Please don't be angry. I can get out right now." Gu Luosheng rambled, no longer even knowing what she was saying.

Ye Nanshen flicked his slender fingers lightly, his lips curving. "The shirt fits you quite well."

"Huh?" Gu Luosheng's brain froze for several seconds.

"You buttoned it wrong. I was only going to fix the buttons for you. What were you thinking?" Ye Nanshen said unhurriedly.

Gu Luosheng: ???

She glanced down at her shirt and realized she really had buttoned it wrong.

Uh...

Was there a mouse hole she could crawl into?

This was really sending her mind straight into the gutter...

"I was in too much of a hurry earlier." Gu Luosheng blushed and spoke softly.

"Get off already." Ye Nanshen slowly let out a heavy breath.

"Okay." Gu Luosheng was just about to get up when the door suddenly opened. Startled, she dropped back down onto him.

This time... his face turned livid.

Ye Nanshen let out a muffled groan.

Old Madam Ye was startled by the sight. Once she recovered, she quickly turned around.

"I... didn't see anything. Oh, right, I only came to get something. I didn't see a thing. Carry on, carry on."

Clearly, the old madam had misunderstood.

Gu Luosheng wanted to die. She hurriedly sprang off him.

She had distinctly felt the change down there just now.

Even without firsthand experience, Gu Luosheng knew what that meant.

And she had actually thought he couldn't get it up.

Uh... I stand corrected. It's not Ye Nanshen who can't handle it. It's me. He can handle it all too well.

Heavens, I still want to live a little longer. Please have mercy and let me survive. I'll make offerings to you every day from now on.

Gu Luosheng wore an utterly devout expression, all but ready to kneel down and pray.

Ye Nanshen stood up, his face dark.

Now he knew exactly what it felt like to be burning with desire with nowhere to release it.

"I'm going to shower. Until I come out, stay right here and behave. You're not allowed to go anywhere, understood?" Ye Nanshen said coldly.

"Huh?" Gu Luosheng had thought he would throw her out, but instead... he ignored her and went straight into the bathroom?

Gu Luosheng hurriedly nodded. As long as this formidable man didn't give her trouble, she was happy.

Only after seeing Ye Nanshen go inside did Gu Luosheng slowly breathe a sigh of relief.

It felt like she had narrowly escaped death.

"I'd be an idiot not to run now," Gu Luosheng muttered. Then she grabbed a coat from the wardrobe, threw it over herself, and fled.

Early the next morning, before Gu Luosheng even got out of the car, she spotted a crowd of fans outside holding signs.

"It's that washed-up nobody, Gu Luosheng!"

"Get your stuff ready, everyone. We're going to teach her a lesson."

"Exactly. How dare she film with our Xixi? She really doesn't know her place."

"Trying to leech off everyone's popularity will only hurt you."

"Seriously, she dresses so disgustingly all the time. Doesn't she have any fucking self-awareness?"

"Today we'll show her just how cruel the world can be."

Gu Luosheng thought back...

She really had... dressed horribly before, and her makeup had been a complete mess too. The only reason she had managed to stay in show business was that she was naturally good-looking. Even with makeup like that, she still had her figure going for her.
