"Rongrong, don't be so nervous..." Lu Qinian's large hands went over every part of her body. Today, he had to leave some marks on her. Otherwise, after tomorrow, the little girl would forget about it again and start to anger him!

The next morning, Li Rongrong woke up in Lu Qinian's embrace. The moment she opened her eyes, she found herself gazing into his pitch-black eyes. She had no idea how long he had been awake or how long he had been looking at her. Their breaths intertwined, as if they were destined to be inseparable. No matter where she tried to hide, he would always find a way to entangle himself with her.

"Good morning." Lu Qinian's voice was hoarse, carrying the laziness of early morning. His hand continued to caress her face as if holding back something.

Li Rongrong gritted her teeth and pushed his hand away. "Get lost!" It was those hands that almost caused her demise on the bed last night. The memory of that feeling filled her with shame.

Lu Qinian smirked, "Why are you still so afraid? That was just a warm-up. The real feast hasn't even begun yet, darling. You'll have to get used to it..." He couldn't help but feel a tinge of regret. Perhaps he had been too hasty and scared her. He stared deeply into her eyes. "Yesterday, you truly angered me, which is why I acted so harshly! Rongrong, you are the only one for me, and I am the only one for you. You are my first woman, and I am destined to be your first and last man." She was like a drug, once touched, he could never quit!

Li Rongrong sneered and forcefully pushed him away. She struggled to get off the bed, but her legs suddenly went limp. Just as she was about to fall to the ground, Lu Qinian swiftly scooped her up. "Where are you going? Let me carry you."

"Get away from me!" Li Rongrong snapped, opening her mouth to bite his hand. "Lu Qinian, what else do you want? Must you humiliate me like this?" The memory of last night's scene flashed in her mind, his eyes bloodshot and terrifying. It only intensified her feelings of shame and anger.

"I told you, I won't truly touch you unless you're willing. I'll respect your boundaries, but you can't keep rejecting me like this. There will be more to come in the future..." Lu Qinian let out a low sigh.

"No more talking! Shut up!" Li Rongrong, both embarrassed and furious, felt her face burning with embarrassment.

Lu Qinian grabbed her hand and pressed it against his face. "Well, go ahead and hit me a few times if it makes you feel better. Shall I let you vent your anger?"

Unexpectedly, Li Rongrong fiercely glared at him. "I don't want to see you. Just go away! Get out right now!"

"Be good... It's better if you don't speak," Lu Qinian carried her into the bathroom and placed her on the toilet.

"Lu Qinian!" Li Rongrong was so enraged that she felt like she was going to vomit blood.

Lu Qinian chuckled. "Alright, I'll leave then. I'll wait for you at the door."

Li Rongrong's lips trembled with anger. This b*stard! Pervert!

...

Butler Bai looked at the two people who were sitting together for breakfast as usual, but he felt that something was not right. Even though they were sitting together, the young master seemed clingy, while the miss appeared as cold as an iceberg, ready to explode at any moment.

Yesterday, all the servants were absent from the house. Lu Qinian had given strict orders for them to keep their distance. Hence, no one knew what had happened! Each one of them had to tread carefully, fearing to displease the master of the house.

"Eat a little more," Lu Qinian commanded when he noticed Li Rongrong had only consumed half a bowl of porridge and was preparing to leave.

"I'm not hungry," Li Rongrong replied with a cold expression, almost on the verge of smashing the bowl.

"Continue eating, or we can repeat last night's events upstairs. It's your choice," Lu Qinian remarked casually, taking a sip of soup with an innocent gaze.

Li Rongrong clenched the spoon, took a deep breath, and resumed eating.

Butler Bai was perplexed. Just as he was wondering what was happening, he witnessed a servant handing something to Lu Qinian. Lu Qinian flipped through the documents and then pushed them in front of Li Rongrong. "Jing Capital University. Take some time to go through these materials and choose a major. You can enroll whenever you want, as long as you're willing."

Li Rongrong's eyes filled with resentment. "And if I'm not willing?"

Lu Qinian elegantly wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and said, "If you're not willing, you can stay at home. You've taken good care of yourself, and now you can take care of the child..."

Li Rongrong stared at the documents before her and burst into laughter. Lu Qinian was no longer being subtle, he was directly telling her to choose between following his path or staying at home and bearing his child. What was she to him? A restricted pawn? It was truly laughable. How had they reached this point?

Lu Qinian stood up, and a servant handed him his coat. He took it and squinted at her. "Give me your answer tonight."
