《禁。慾》3《Will You Come Home Tonight?》
Chapter Nineteen: Lust Trap
1、Silent Shura Field
「《Will You Come Home Tonight?》Chapter Nineteen Scene One, Action!」
The living room atmosphere was so heavy that even the air seemed to stop flowing. The dim glow of the wall lamps fell on several faces, casting elongated shadows onto the marble floor, faintly revealing a gunpowder scent ready to ignite at any moment.
Shen Rui'an and Pei Xiuyu stood side by side, both turning their heads to look at Jiang Yuhe, who stood by the sofa with a grim expression. No one spoke immediately to answer his questioning question; only deathly silence remained in the living room.
Jiang Yuhe's palm hanging at his side suddenly clenched, knuckles emitting a teeth-grinding crisp sound. Fury that could destroy heaven and earth surged in the depths of his black eyes as he nearly roared in a low voice: 「Speak!」
Pei Xiuyu slightly raised his chin. His usually gentle and refined face showed no trace of panic; his gaze was calm and open, making him hard to read. He straightened his slightly wrinkled cuff and, in an extremely flat tone as if discussing the weather, casually uttered two words: 「Playmate.」
Shen Rui'an, standing nearby, heard these two words and her delicate body trembled imperceptibly. She lifted her clear, moist black eyes toward Jiang Yuhe, looking at his face as dark as a pot bottom, and awkwardly curved her lips into a somewhat ingratiating yet polite silly smile.
However, Pei Xiuyu clearly had no intention of stopping there. He took half a step forward, his posture upright, his eyes carrying a hint of provocation as he looked at Jiang Yuhe, then delivered another blow:
「Didn't you say you wanted to share before? I savored it seriously, I like it very much, and…… I'm very satisfied.」
These words were undoubtedly like throwing a high-explosive bomb into a raging fire.
Jiang Yuhe's lips curved in an extremely sinister manner, suddenly emitting a highly sarcastic cold snort: 「Hah.」
His hawk-like sharp black eyes stared dead at Shen Rui'an. That gaze was cold enough to freeze a person alive. Then, too lazy to say another word, he abruptly turned around, stirring up a gust of icy wind, and strode toward the master bedroom on the second floor. With a loud 「Bang!」 the door slammed shut, shaking the entire villa as if it trembled three times.
In the empty living room, only Pei Xiuyu and Shen Rui'an remained.
Pei Xiuyu turned around, looking at Shen Rui'an's face filled with helplessness and fatigue. In an instant, his eyes regained their usual gentleness and thoughtfulness. He softly broke the silence and said:
「Your room was just bombed by He Qiang's group, it's a mess. It probably can't be tidied up tonight. Sleep in my room.」
Shen Rui'an glanced back at her half-destroyed door, her heart full of helplessness. Finally, she could only nod lightly and softly replied: 「Okay, thank you, Xiuyu.」
2、Embarrassed Escape in the Morning Light
The next morning, mist shrouded the garden of the overseas villa.
Today was a big day for the Jiang Group. Jiang Yuhe was personally going to the overseas top-tier business convention center to negotiate a massive cross-border contract that could influence the entire U.S. stock market trend.
Although Shen Rui'an felt extremely awkward and reluctant to face Jiang Yuhe, as a paid and helpless personal secretary, she had no choice but to avoid it.
After all, her body had already been sold; the work still had to be done.
At 6:30 AM, Pei Xiuyu was still sound asleep on the luxurious big bed, his breathing steady.
Shen Rui'an quietly lifted the blanket, not even daring to put on shoes. Barefoot with her snow-white delicate feet, she slipped out of Pei Xiuyu's room like a thief, intending to return to her ruined room to quickly freshen up.
However, just as she gently opened the door and caught sight of the figure on the living room sofa, she nearly jumped in fright on the spot!
In the living room, Jiang Yuhe had already changed into a white shirt. Elegantly crossing his long legs on the sofa, holding a cup of steaming black coffee, his eyes were watching financial news on the LCD TV.
He didn't turn around or speak, but the powerful oppressive aura emanating from him was suffocating.
Yet Shen Rui'an had to pass through the corridor behind his sofa to return to her room.
Shen Rui'an secretly took a deep breath, bent over, trying her best to minimize her presence. She moved her steps extremely gently, muttering like a spell in a voice only she could hear, repeating extremely softly:
「You can't see me…… You can't see me…… You can't see me……」
「Treating me like air?」
A voice cold as an ice cellar suddenly tore through the living room's calm.
Shen Rui'an's steps instantly froze in place, her entire body stiff as a stone.
She turned around with difficulty, lowering her head, not daring to look directly into Jiang Yuhe's sharp eyes. She forced an awkward yet polite professional smile on her face and stammered in response:
「So…… so early, Mr. Jiang…… I…… I need to go back to my room…… to freshen up……」 Her voice grew smaller toward the end, finally as faint as a mosquito's hum.
Jiang Yuhe suddenly put on a stern handsome face, his brows condensing an extremely serious light, coldly issuing an order:
「There can be no mistakes today. This fashion banquet is the highlight of the top-tier business association; we must successfully sign the contract.」
Shen Rui'an was slightly stunned. In the past, for such top-tier grand occasions, Jiang Yuhe would bring various celebrities or socialites; as a small secretary, she at most handled some local minor events.
「Understood, Mr. Jiang. I'll freshen up first; please wait a moment.」
After speaking, Shen Rui'an, as if granted amnesty, dashed back to her room like a wisp of smoke. However, when she hurriedly pushed open the door and saw the room destroyed by gunfire and fighting, filled with scattered wood chips and bloodstains, she couldn't help but lean on the doorframe, letting out a long, bitter sigh:
「Sigh…… How am I supposed to change clothes and freshen up in such a ruined environment……」
「I'll take you somewhere. Let's go directly.」
Jiang Yuhe's steady voice suddenly came from behind. Shen Rui'an whirled around to see Jiang Yuhe standing behind her at some point, one hand in his trouser pocket, his expression indifferent.
Along the way, the car cabin was terrifyingly quiet. Jiang Yuhe didn't ask a single question, and Shen Rui'an didn't dare say half a word.
Half an hour later, the top-tier business sedan stopped in front of an extremely discreet, low-key yet luxurious high-end haute couture gown club.
Shen Rui'an, like a little wife, silently followed behind Jiang Yuhe's tall figure into the club.
As soon as they entered, a chief stylist in an elegant black suit warmly greeted them, bowing and saying: 「Miss Shen, this way please. Mr. Jiang made the reservation for you long ago.」
Shen Rui'an was led into the luxurious VIP makeup room.
The stylist selected a low-key yet extremely luxurious black mermaid haute couture gown for her. The extremely form-fitting silk cut outlined Shen Rui'an's curvaceous, exquisite figure perfectly, exposing her snow-white jade-like collarbones and back skin.
The stylist applied exquisite, commanding retro makeup on her. Her jet-black long hair was curled into romantic and charming French large curls. The whole person exuded a strong and highly aggressive beauty and aura.
Half an hour later, when Shen Rui'an slowly walked out of the makeup room dragging the mermaid skirt, she looked up and happened to see Jiang Yuhe sitting on the sofa in the lounge area.
Jiang Yuhe was originally flipping through a magazine. Hearing the movement, he looked up. The moment he saw Shen Rui'an clearly, a flash of deep amazement clearly passed through his black eyes!
However, that flash only flickered for a second before Jiang Yuhe quickly hid it. He withdrew his gaze, still showing no excessive emotional fluctuations on his face, and said in an extremely flat tone:
「Perform well today. Don't disgrace the Jiang family.」
But now controlling this body was the highly perceptive second personality 「Rui」. Although Jiang Yuhe deliberately hid his emotions extremely well, Rui's sharp sixth sense accurately captured that instant of amazement and heartbeat.
A mischievous bad thought rose in Rui's heart, but her face showed nothing. She merely played the role of a competent little secretary, obediently bowing and replying: 「Yes, Mr. Jiang.」
3、Accident on the Red Carpet
When the private car arrived at the venue of the overseas top-tier fashion banquet, the scene had already been lit up like daytime by flashbulbs from major international financial media and fashion paparazzi. Long and short guns lined both sides of the red carpet, with countless supercars and luxury limousines worth tens of millions successively entering.
The car door opened. Jiang Yuhe first stepped out with his long legs, then turned and extended his hand into the car.
Originally, Jiang Yuhe was somewhat worried that Shen Rui'an, facing such a large international top-tier celebrity gathering for the first time, would be as nervous and stage-frightened as before.
However, beyond his expectations, the moment Shen Rui'an placed her delicate hand in his palm and stepped out of the car, the aura she exuded was one of immense confidence, strength, and elegant nobility!
The moment they got out of the car, the media and socialite circle erupted in an uproar!
「Oh my god! Who is that woman? She's so beautiful!」
「Is she Mr. Jiang's little secretary? The one called Shen Rui'an?」
「My goodness, she looks so different from the news photos! This aura simply crushes all the supermodels!」
「As expected of the woman Jiang Yuhe has his eye on……」
「Women bought with money are just different. No wonder she can hook the great President Jiang so tightly.」
「This Secretary Shen's complete transformation is really amazing……」
Various discussions and shutter sounds reached her ears, but Rui was completely unaffected by any negative influence. With a dignified and elegant smile on her lips, she perfectly stood half a step behind Jiang Yuhe, playing the role of the most perfect companion and secretary.
However, just as the two were about to enter the venue doors, Rui didn't notice—one of her high heels' thin heel suddenly stepped into a tiny hole at the edge of a red carpet tile!
Her center of gravity instantly lost control, and her whole body uncontrollably fell sideways!
Rui's heart skipped a beat as she inwardly cursed: 「Ah—I'm done for! I'm going to faceplant in front of all the media!」
But she gritted her teeth and didn't let out a single scream.
In that split second, Jiang Yuhe reacted extremely quickly. His large hand swung out and precisely grabbed her slender waist, forcefully pulling her into his embrace!
「Rip—」
Rui crashed entirely into his solid, warm embrace and was tightly held by him.
Jiang Yuhe leaned down, looking down at the flustered woman in his arms, his lips almost touching her earlobe, whispering teasingly with a playful bad smile:
「Not paying attention while walking? Hmm?」
Rui's heart raced wildly from this sudden intimate gesture. Her cheeks instantly flushed red as if about to bleed. She somewhat flusteredly pushed against his chest: 「Hug…… sorry, Mr. Jiang…… Can you let go of me now……」
Jiang Yuhe's bad smile in his eyes deepened. Not only did he not let go, but he slowly spoke with an irresistible domineering command:
「Hook your arm around mine.」
Rui's heartbeat was so fast it felt like it would burst out of her chest, but to match the scene, she obediently reached out and tightly hooked Jiang Yuhe's arm.
This scene fell into the eyes of the surrounding reporters and socialites, instantly triggering a mountain-shaking wave of cheers and screams! Flashbulbs madly flickered!
「Oh my god! Is this filming an idol drama right on the red carpet?!」
「Domineering CEO saves the beauty! This is too sweet!」
「Showing off their love in public? Looks like Mr. Jiang really couldn't hold back; his eyes are so gentle they could drip water!」
「Look at the little secretary blushing like that, so shy and cute!」
「I'm shipping this CP first!」
Amid countless praises and cheers, Jiang Yuhe, leading the blushing Rui with full aura, stepped into the luxurious banquet hall.
4、Former Playmate
The banquet hall was resplendent with gold and jade, filled with fragrant clothes and beautiful women.
Jiang Yuhe led Rui through the crowd, toasting and greeting various business tycoons and fashion socialites. Rui handled it appropriately and with proper decorum, making Jiang Yuhe feel extremely smooth while discussing business.
However, just as the two walked to the champagne tower in the center of the banquet hall, a tall and sexy figure suddenly blocked their path.
That was a 「playmate」 Jiang Yuhe had known while studying abroad in his youth. They hadn't seen each other for decades. Rumor had it she had been studying abroad these years, securing countless top resources, and was a leading figure in both the fashion and investment worlds.
Her name was 「Han Xiu」
Han Xiu wore an extremely bold deep-V sexy gown, with a powerful aura and a natural coquettishness and arrogance.
She stared straight at Jiang Yuhe, then provocatively glanced sideways at Shen Rui'an, striding toward them.
「Hi~ Long time no see, Mr. Jiang~」
Han Xiu's voice carried a mature woman's unique sexiness and coquettishness.
The moment Jiang Yuhe saw her, his whole body clearly paused for a moment, then quickly regained composure, raising an eyebrow in response:
「What are you doing here?」
Han Xiu smiled charmingly, walking flirtatiously to Jiang Yuhe: 「I've returned to the country~ Today……」 Saying this, she boldly leaned close to Jiang Yuhe's ear right in front of Shen Rui'an, exhaling fragrantly in an extremely ambiguous voice:
「How about…… finding a time to catch up?」
Although she spoke in a lowered voice, at this distance, Shen Rui'an heard it crystal clear.
Hearing the words 「catch up」, Shen Rui'an's heart suddenly ached sharply as if pricked by a needle. But now controlling the body, Rui quickly suppressed this emotion, showing not a single flaw on her face, maintaining an elegant and calm professional smile.
Jiang Yuhe keenly noticed the change in Shen Rui'an's eyes for that instant. A kind of indescribable irritability and displeasure rose in his heart. To test whether this woman truly didn't care, Jiang Yuhe hardened his gaze and forcefully wrapped his arm around Han Xiu's slender waist, pulling her entire body tightly against him!
Jiang Yuhe leaned down, close to Han Xiu's ear, smiling: 「Of course no problem. See you later.」
Han Xiu smiled triumphantly. Before leaving, right in front of Shen Rui'an, she mischievously lightly bit Jiang Yuhe's earlobe! The action was extremely hot and ambiguous.
Shen Rui'an watched all this. Although she didn't know who this woman named Han Xiu was or what absurd relationship she and Jiang Yuhe had in the past, she knew she was merely a secretary and playmate with no qualification to inquire.
However, Rui's sharp sixth sense told her that this Han Xiu was definitely not simple. Thus, her gaze couldn't help but occasionally follow Han Xiu's figure moving through the venue.
Jiang Yuhe watched Shen Rui'an staring dead at Han Xiu, not even hearing him speak to her. He couldn't help but coldly laugh inwardly: 「She pretended so much like she didn't care just now, but her eyes are quite honest now.」
And that Han Xiu was simply the center of attention. She moved freely among the crowd, intimately chatting and drinking with various tycoons, her network astonishingly wide. She occasionally turned to look at Jiang Yuhe, throwing a soul-stealing flirtatious glance; but when her gaze fell on Shen Rui'an, it instantly turned into an extremely hostile and arrogant cold face.
Just then, the lights in the entire venue suddenly dimmed, and the main event began!
The mysterious big shot everyone at tonight's banquet had been scrambling for, dreaming of signing a contract with, had always been extremely secretive, never publicly revealed.
With the host's grand introduction, an elegant figure slowly walked to the center of the stage.
The moment the lights shone on that person's face, Jiang Yuhe rarely showed an extremely surprised expression! Shen Rui'an was also shocked, her mouth slightly agape!
Standing at the center of the stage, controlling the fate of tonight's billions-worth contract, the super big shot was none other than the one who had been freely drinking and flirting with Jiang Yuhe in the crowd just now—Han Xiu!
Han Xiu took the microphone, elegantly smiling at the business tycoons below, her voice echoing throughout the banquet hall:
「Welcome everyone to this contract signing ceremony. For those who received the contract invitation, we have already eliminated some in the first round of evaluation. Those who successfully advance to the second round will receive a second invitation tonight—of course, if you find the rules cumbersome, you may also choose not to attend and directly give up competing for this contract.」
After speaking, she gracefully put down the microphone and turned to leave.
Shen Rui'an leaned close to Jiang Yuhe and softly asked: 「Mr. Jiang, wasn't it said we could sign the contract directly today?」
Jiang Yuhe frowned, his gaze profound: 「Unclear what game this woman is playing.」
After the banquet ended, guests gradually dispersed.
Han Xiu, in her gown, walked straight toward Jiang Yuhe. Completely ignoring Shen Rui'an beside her, she boldly directly hooked Jiang Yuhe's arm, half her body leaning against him, coquettishly saying:
「I've been waiting for you for so long~ Leaving now, Mr. Jiang?」
Jiang Yuhe looked dissatisfied and puzzled, coldly asking: 「What game are you playing exactly? Still doing this checkpoint activity? Wasting everyone's time.」
Han Xiu laughed coquettishly, her fingertip drawing circles on his chest: 「I said if you don't like it, you don't have to participate~ I don't mind. I just want to see where your sincerity lies, whether it's worth me choosing you among so many people.」
Jiang Yuhe was momentarily at a loss for words. After all, this cross-border contract in Han Xiu's hands was crucial for the Jiang family. With it, Jiang's stocks would experience an unprecedented surge.
Jiang Yuhe's eyes darkened slightly. He reached out to pinch Han Xiu's chin, making her look up at him, using his usual sexy tone for coaxing women:
「You're still as slutty as before…… But you've gained more womanly charm than before.」
After speaking, Jiang Yuhe turned his head to look at Shen Rui'an standing a few steps away. Their eyes met. Jiang Yuhe's face showed no emotional fluctuations as he coldly issued an order:
「Secretary Shen, call the driver for me. You take a car back yourself.」
Rui looked at him, her eyes calm as a stagnant pool, calmly replying: 「Understood, Mr. Jiang.」
She quickly dialed the phone to arrange everything, then said to Jiang Yuhe: 「Mr. Jiang, the driver is here.」
Just like that, right in front of her, Jiang Yuhe left the venue with his arm around Han Xiu's waist. Rui stood alone in the night breeze, got into another taxi, and went home alone.
5、Wildness on the Bar Counter
Late at night at 11:30, the overseas villa.
When Rui pushed open the door and entered the living room, she was startled to see Pei Xiuyu sitting on the sofa in home clothes watching TV.
Although Rui carried a faint scent of alcohol, the sexiness and beauty from tonight's haute couture gown and exquisite makeup hadn't diminished at all.
The moment Pei Xiuyu saw Shen Rui'an enter, his eyes instantly widened! His eyes burst with extreme eagerness as he suddenly stood up and strode toward her.
Before Shen Rui'an could speak, Pei Xiuyu extended his large hand and grabbed her slender waist, forcefully pulling her into his embrace!
「Rip—」
The two pressed tightly together. Pei Xiuyu's deep voice sounded in her ear, filled with endless praise and crazy passion:
「You're so beautiful…… Rui'an, how can you be so beautiful……」
After speaking, Pei Xiuyu could no longer suppress the roaring beastly desire in his body. He lowered his head and fiercely kissed her red lips!
This kiss was intense, hot, carrying lingering wine fragrance. Pei Xiuyu's large hand slowly lifted along her mermaid skirt's hem, his slender fingers precisely reaching toward her lower body's private area, skillfully and gently kneading through the thin panties.
「Mmm…… Xiuyu……」
Shen Rui'an's legs went weak from this extreme teasing. Her delicate body trembled nonstop, almost unable to stand.
Pei Xiuyu held her, letting half her body lean against the living room bar counter. The force of his hand kept increasing. His fingers slid into the soaked panties, skillfully teasing her sensitive spot, forcing Rui to twist her soft waist, emitting a series of blood-boiling moans:
「Ah…… Xiuyu…… So comfortable…… Mmm ah……」
Pei Xiuyu's eyes were terrifyingly deep. He leaned down, taking her snow-white breast protruding through the gown into his mouth, while his other hand wildly kneaded her outer sex. Shen Rui'an completely couldn't stand anymore. Pei Xiuyu picked her up and placed her directly on the high bar counter!
