"Don't you get it? These are my biggest secrets and will only be shared with the most important people in my life." Ren Hong looked at the delicate beauty in his arms.

Apparently, it was so sudden that she had no chance to react at all, "No, Ren Hong, I'm not ready to face these things." She tried to free herself from the other's arms, but to no avail.

"Then get ready now!"

"Don't do that, don't~~"

"When a woman says no, she means yes!"

"Who says so?"

"Tian Boguang1!"

"You rascal!"

"Yes, I am!"

"I'm older than you; we're not suitable!"

"A normal social phenomenon!"

"I'm 24! You're 19!"

"So be it!"

"You… I'm really not ready. Ren Hong, can you give me some time to consider?"

"In that case, start getting ready now. I've just given you time!"

After a long while…

"You're older than me. Teach me!" As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Ren Hong kissed her fragrant, glistening lips. Gao Yue stared at the suave face right in front of her. She tried to break away from his strong grip, but her delicate and tender body was totally helpless.

She clenched her teeth, attempting to resist his aggression. The moment she was glad that he was bound to retreat without success, a large hand suddenly spread to her slender waist and tickled.

"Ahah~~ Mmm…"

The itch from her waist subconsciously made her laugh. Her clenched white teeth couldn't help but open up, allowing Ren Hong's slithery tongue to instantly slide in.

She stared at him in disbelief with her wide, beautiful eyes!

The first kiss that I've been saving for over 20 years is gone just like that?

They felt the heat flowing out from their skin and it was as if it could melt the world's glaciers. Her body, heart, and everything melted away as time passed. She felt her body growing weak. She wanted to resist, but was powerless to even do so.

She gazed at the face right in front of her. Looking at how he closed his eyes in deep fondness, she also gradually closed her limpid eyes.

It was a feeling of water mingling, entwining, and intertwining with each other. In this small space between them, there was no resistance. They were indistinguishable from each other as if they were one.

After a long time, both parties separated for the first time. She didn't speak or think as if she was lost in her world.

She hadn't yet returned to her senses, and her clear eyes seemed empty as if she had forgotten everything in the world.

Ren Hong embraced her slender waist. He was more than half a head taller than her. Looking at the numb young lady, he gently lowered his head. Both of their faces touched each other; face to face, nose to nose…

Ren Hong's voice sounded softly. "Do you know the constellations?"

Gao Yue didn't respond, but Ren Hong knew she could clearly hear him. He continued. "You're a Pisces, while I'm a Scorpion. The constellations say that a scorpion will only identify with one person in his life, and once he is in love, that person is the only one for him. He would rather be alone for the rest of his life than to love again! When he meets her, his heart burns brightly and transforms into the brightest and most brilliant light in the world, which also surrounds her without reserve.

"I am the scorpion; you are the only one for me," Ren Hong whispered, so that she was the only one who could hear him. "Look into my eyes and see what's in them!"

The numb Gao Yue tilted her head up slightly to look into his eyes. Their eyes met. She gazed into his glinting eyes and saw herself reflected in them. Apart from her, there was nothing else.

"Eyes are the windows to the soul, and I saw it too; that person in your eyes is me, and only me. I knew it, you're just a shy… little fish!" Ren Hong laughed with delicate tenderness and said softly.

All of a sudden, Gao Yue was amused by him.

We're standing so close to each other and you've blocked all of my sight; how could there be anything else in my eyes but you!

The scene ushered in another moment of silence. Gao Yue didn't speak for a long time and it was at that moment when Ren Hong said softly, "Tonight we go for a walk in Swan Lake. Just me and you. Is that okay?"

"Okay…" At that moment, Gao Yue's mind was full of his touching words. Her response was like a tinkling chant that faded into Ren Hong's ears. The latter revealed a slight smile.

All of a sudden, someone opened the door of the chairman's office. And the two of them who were embracing each other subconsciously shifted their gaze toward the door.

"Ah! Sand fell into my eye, I didn't see anything!" Mu, who held a folder in her hand, said with a quick reaction, spun around, and closed the door, disappearing in a flash.

Gao Yue instantly panicked and quickly broke away from Ren Hong's embrace. "It's all your fault! I'm done for!" She looked to the side in distress, an enchanting touch of scarlet surfacing on her beautiful cheeks. Ren Hong looked at her with a little obsession.

Gao Yue felt like she had gotten into a huge trouble. Her heart was incomparably panicking.

"What's wrong? So what if we were seen? Isn't it normal for good men and women to love each other?" Ren Hong playfully walked to Gao Yue's side and spoke in her ear. "Why don't we announce it now? Our staff will surely give their blessings!"

"Don't you dare! I'll resign immediately!" The flustered Gao Yue responded harshly.

"Okay, okay—I'll leave everything to my wife!" Ren Hong chuckled. He wasn't embarrassed at all as if he were a veteran of love affairs.

"Who's your wife, rascal!" The blush on Gao Yue's face that had already slightly receded suddenly resurfaced, making her unusually stunning. She quickly tidied up her disheveled clothes. "The money is yours anyway—10 billion or 100 billion—however you'd like to spend it, I don't care," she replied, before turning around proudly and elegantly. She no longer dared to stay here, walking away twice as fast as usual.

"Remember—Swan Lake!" When Gao Yue reached the door, the manly voice from the rear swept into her ears. She didn't answer again, nor did she turn back. She opened the door and quickly 'fled' the scene.

"You've fallen into the Scorpion's domain; there's no escaping!" Ren Hong watched as the panicky back of the young lady disappeared before him. He touched the bridge of his nose, and showed a smile.

***

Nighttime.

Gao Yue arrived at the meeting place as promised.

A man and a woman walked silently down the street. Her eyes wandered around the night scene, but her mind remained unsettled.

Is this considered a first date?

She felt a little panic, her heart pounding faster than ever.

She was still thinking back on everything that had happened during the day. She felt both ridiculous and amazing at the same time. The feelings she had during the day lingered in her mind, unabated even now. His forceful actions and the words he had said were still vivid in her mind. It was especially so for those tender and loving words; she wanted to make him say them again.

"Let's sit down for a while!" Ren Hong suddenly spoke up, pointing to a public seat not far away from them.

"Huh? Okay!" Gao Yue didn't return to her senses instantly. She gave a gentle nod.

A man and a woman sat together, looking at the stream of vehicles. The towering skyscraper ahead was very eye-catching.

Gao Yue didn't know how to start a conversation with him as the panic settled in her mind.

Are we officially dating?

I'm older than him, so why am I not taking the initiative?

Gao Yue bit her red lip, seemingly frustrated with herself. However, she thought about how strong he was during the day, not giving herself the slightest chance to refute. She felt like she couldn't defeat him at all. She couldn't help but recall his words.

How did this happen? Have I really fallen for him?

"Do you think the scene from that short film is actually going to happen in reality?" After a long time, Gao Yue was the first to break the silence.

"What? You still don't believe it?" Ren Hong withdrew his gaze and looked at her with a smile.

"No… Maybe… I do believe… Just that it felt so dreamy and unreal!" Gao Yue looked away and said casually.
