Ning Fan's eyes were bloodshot, veins on his forehead throbbed like those of a wild beast…
The hot water showering down on him was like pouring oil on fire.
"Hmm..."
Su Qingcheng stopped struggling, completely controlled by the effects of the drug. Instead, she even tilted her head back, her fair neck elongated, her hands reaching out to embrace Ning Fan… to meet his touch…
The proud and icy face showed signs of confusion, desire, and even pleading… Where was her usual aloofness now?
On the other side, outside the room, Xu Yourong suddenly frowned, glancing in the direction of the room from afar. A hint of hesitation arose in her heart, whether to check if Ning Fan had changed his clothes in the room?
Splash splash splash...
Splash splash splash...
Splash splash splash...
In the room, after an indeterminate amount of time, amidst the sound of flowing water, Su Qingcheng gradually regained consciousness.
To her horror, she found herself lying in the bathtub, naked, with hot water continuously washing over her body.
And less than half a meter in front of her, Ning Fan was also in the bathtub, his hand still on her body…
"Ahh!!!"
Su Qingcheng immediately began to scream desperately, lifting her legs out of the water to kick at Ning Fan.
"You despicable and shameless villain! You damned bastard!"
"You actually drugged me! You actually ruined my innocence!"
"I'm going to kill you! I must kill you!"
Su Qingcheng covered her front with her hands, her long jade-like legs kicking incessantly at Ning Fan.
Ning Fan had no choice but to stand up in the bathtub and step aside, explaining with a wry smile, "Miss Su, listen to me, it's not what you think. The person who drugged us wasn't me, I was drugged too…"
"Regardless of whether you drugged me or not, you're the one who ruined my innocence! My twenty-plus years of virtue, ruined at the hands of a scoundrel and liar like you! You despicable and shameless lowlife!"
Su Qingcheng's eyes were red, her teeth clenched, filled with murderous intent.
"I did not ruin your innocence!" Ning Fan shook his head in denial.
"Haha, what? You dare to do it but not admit it? Don't even have that much courage? Let me tell you, whether you admit it or not, I am going to kill you!"
Su Qingcheng laughed angrily, sitting in the bathtub, her body trembling, and she had bitten her lips so hard that blood was coming out.
"I really didn't ruin your innocence; indeed, I almost lost my senses just now and almost did something I shouldn't, but in the end, I didn't…"
Ning Fan shook his head, continuing to explain, "Later, I removed the aphrodisiac from myself and then helped you remove it from your body. When you woke up just now, that was the last step in the detoxification process for you..."
"You spineless, despicable wretch! Still making up stories!"
Hearing Ning Fan's words, Su Qingcheng was far from believing him. Instead, she recalled how, when she had just woken up, Ning Fan's hand was on that place on her body, which made her feel even more ashamed and tremble with anger.
Ring Ring Ring...
Just then, Su Qingcheng's mobile phone suddenly rang.
She hurriedly got up from the bathtub, quickly grabbed a towel to wrap around her body, and answered the call.
"Hello? Qingcheng, I've taken care of things. Are you and Ning Fan still in the guest room? The banquet is about to start; why haven't you two come out yet?" Xu Yourong's voice came through the phone.
"Yourong, that... We're still in the room, we'll be out soon," Su Qingcheng said, trying to cover her panic.
"Then can you open the door for me? I'm right outside the guest room," Xu Yourong said calmly.
"Ah? That... I… I'm taking a shower… Could you, could you wait a moment, please..."
Su Qingcheng spoke in a fluster and then hung up the phone, before glaring fiercely at Ning Fan and lowering her voice to roar, "Get out and get dressed right now! I warn you, keep this to yourself! If you dare to let it out, I will definitely kill you!"
After pushing Ning Fan out of the bathroom, Su Qingcheng turned around and quickly put on her clothes. Midway, her gaze paused on a trace of crimson in the bathtub water.
Seconds later, she fought back tears and forcefully removed the bathtub's drain plug.
Watching that wisp of crimson swirl away with the water, Su Qingcheng felt an overwhelming sense of loss.
Her first time... just gone like that...
The hatred in her heart for Ning Fan grew even deeper.
...
Outside the bathroom, Ning Fan opened a big box on the bed, which contained a whole set of new clothes—shirts, suit, underwear, socks, leather shoes... nothing was missing.
This set of clothes looked expensive, the kind priced in the tens of thousands in department stores.
Ning Fan hesitated for a moment but eventually put them on.
After changing, he was surprised to find that the size of the clothes perfectly matched his physique.
Clearly, Xu Yourong had picked these out with great care; they were not just randomly bought.
By then, Su Qingcheng had also finished dressing and walked out, giving Ning Fan a warning glare before opening the door.
"Qingcheng, Ning Fan, why are you two so slow? Let's go, we need to hurry... Eh? Ning Fan, you..."
Xu Yourong was urging them on as she walked in, but her words trailed off and her gaze suddenly fixed on Ning Fan and wouldn't budge.
At that moment, Ning Fan was facing the door sideways. After changing into new clothes, he appeared incredibly handsome and suave, with an extraordinary presence, naturally exuding a masculine charm!
Not just for Xu Yourong—even Su Qingcheng at the side was momentarily stunned, silently sighing to herself, no wonder Xu Yourong was smitten by Ning Fan; this despicable man was indeed somewhat handsome...
But no matter how handsome, it was useless, this despicable and shameless villain...
Su Qingcheng stared hard at Ning Fan's face, but then she suddenly paused.
From her angle, she could just see—on the other side of Ning Fan's face, the spot unseen by Xu Yourong...
Clack clack clack!
The next second, Su Qingcheng, wearing her high heels, quickly stepped in front of Ning Fan and raised her hand to slap his face.
"You..."
Ning Fan was somewhat dazed.
"Qingcheng, what are you doing? Why did you hit Ning Fan?"
Xu Yourong hurried over in alarm, stepping between Ning Fan and Su Qingcheng.
"Why did I hit him?"
Not sure what to say in her haste, Su Qingcheng blurted "Ask him!"
"Ning Fan, what in the world is going on?"
Xu Yourong looked at Ning Fan with puzzlement.
"I..."
Ning Fan sighed.
Alright, no matter what, he did indeed see all of Miss Su, and he shouldn't keep it from Xu Yourong.
"I saw Miss Su's..."
Ning Fan opened his mouth intending to tell the whole truth.
