Chapter 157: Chapter 157: Kissing Away the Scent of Other Men

An hour later, Rong Mansion.

A group of servants had been waiting outside the villa’s door respectfully and cautiously.

The young master had left the house in the middle of the night with a terrible look on his face, which frightened them all.

When they saw the young master carrying the young madam back, all the servants finally breathed a sigh of relief.

So he had gone out in the middle of the night for the young madam?

They had thought something very serious had happened.

But seeing the young master carrying the young madam, looking seemingly in love, they were completely reassured.

They guessed the couple must have had a fight, and now they had reconciled.

"Young master, young madam."

The servants bowed.

Lu Xingzhou walked past them, his voice low, "Prepare the bathwater."

"Yes," the servants hurriedly went into the villa.

Jiang Man raised an eyebrow, "A bath? I can just shower."

"No," Lu Xingzhou’s eyes were red, his voice hoarse.

His breathing was heavy, as if he was restraining some emotion.

Jiang Man didn’t argue, lightly tapping on his shoulder, "Aren’t you going to put me down? Where do you plan to carry me to?"

"My room," Lu Xingzhou said in a low voice, unconsciously quickening his step.

Jiang Man didn’t say much, allowing him to carry her until they entered Lu Xingzhou’s room on the second floor.

The sound of running water came from the bathroom, where the servant was preparing the bathwater.

Lu Xingzhou then carried her to the bathroom door.

The servant respectfully brought out all the bathing necessities.

Seeing this, he bowed his head, "Then, young master, I’ll be outside. Call me if you need anything."

Lu Xingzhou didn’t speak.

Once the servant had left, he carried Jiang Man into the bathroom and stepped forward to close the door.

With long legs, he casually hooked and kicked the door shut with a ’creak’.

He placed her on the washbasin.

Jiang Man sat there, her slender, fair legs naturally hanging down, relaxed and lazy, glancing at the bathtub, "Planning on a bath together?"

Lu Xingzhou said nothing, his whole demeanor low-pressure, like a vinegar pot overturned, urgently needing to release his emotions.

He stood in front of Jiang Man, methodically taking off his suit jacket and casually throwing it into the nearby laundry basket.

Next, his slender fingers touched the buttons of his shirt, methodically continuing to unbutton.

Jiang Man’s eyebrow arched slightly, immediately feeling cheerful.

This was much more engaging than those male models in the bar!

Did she indeed prefer older men?

In the bar, when the male model approached her, she felt absolutely nothing inside.

When he nearly took her hand, she felt even less emotional fluctuation.

But when she saw Lu Xingzhou undressing in front of her, to be honest, her heart raced, feeling very affected.

Tsk tsk.

No wonder they say a man is in his prime at thirty-one.

Jiang Man appreciated the man’s body outlined by the shirt, the muscles well-defined, the lines clear.

Even without seeing him undressed, she could imagine he was the type who looked slim in clothes but muscular without.

He was that type with a strong presence, a man of compelling masculinity.

Jiang Man relaxed and observed the man undressing.

She felt like a spectator, filled with excitement and pleasure.

She thought he would take off his shirt, but he only unbuttoned three buttons and left the last two.

He took a step forward quickly, his hands bracing against her arms.

"Jiang Man, I don’t like you going to places like that."

He released his suppressed emotions.

Jiang Man raised her eyebrows, "I really didn’t—"

Before she could finish her sentence, he leaned down and kissed her fiercely.

Kisses like a dense, fine rain left Jiang Man defenseless.

Stunned, she opened her eyes wide as the man overwhelmed her, storming the battlements.

He dominantly transferred his breath to her.

She felt the man’s fierce breath, filled with desire, dominance, and also tenderness.

"Lu..." Jiang Man tried to speak.

But her lips and teeth were covered by the man, all sounds devoured, ultimately turning into muffled moans.

Unsure of how long they kissed, Jiang Man felt she was about to lose her strength, her body ready to collapse into Lu Xingzhou’s arms when he finally moved his lips away.

"I’ll help you wash..." His eyes were profound, like a beast in the night hunting its prey, ready to devour it whole.

At that moment, Jiang Man was so weak that she let him hold her.

Her hands wrapped around his neck.

"Which hand did he touch?" Lu Xingzhou stared unblinkingly at the girl.

Jiang Man scoffed.

The old man sure is jealous!

She didn’t do much with that male PR, just chatted about some fortune-telling stuff.

"This one." She laughed and raised her hand.

The next second, the man kissed her hand, as if to erase the scent of the other man completely.

...

The next day.

The Earl’s Hotel.

JOJO, supporting her almost bursting headache, slowly sat up.

She furrowed her brow and looked around.

Since she had drunk till blackout, she tried hard to recall what had happened last night.

She remembered being rejected by Lu Zhan, then going to a bar to drink alone.

She drank quite a lot, fell asleep leaning on the bar, and had no recollection of what happened afterward.

She rubbed her head and lifted the blanket to get out of bed.

Seeing her bare legs and then her body, she suddenly screamed, "Ah!"

"You’re awake?"

The man from the bathroom was attracted by her scream.

He was wearing the hotel’s bathrobe, having just showered, his hair still not dry.

"Who are you?" JOJO asked in broken English.

Song Xiao somewhat helplessly, "I’m a good friend of Jiang Man."

"What?" JOJO was confused.

Suddenly realizing something, she quickly pulled the blanket over herself, "Did we... sleep together last night?"

"Obviously," Song Xiao appeared nonchalant.

JOJO wanted to curse, "What the hell happened?"

Song Xiao patiently explained the events of the last night.

After listening, JOJO couldn’t believe it, "How is that possible, I am a reserved person, how could I have thrown myself at you?"

Song Xiao knew such matters were indefensible, so he took out his phone, "I recorded it, see for yourself."

"!!!" JOJO snatched the phone, and when she saw the video, she was utterly shocked.

She threw herself into Song Xiao’s arms like she had never seen a man before, furiously kissing him, tugging at his clothes.

"My god," JOJO covered her face, feeling utterly ashamed.

"We are both adults," Song Xiao’s expression remained calm, "let’s just say it was mutual consent last night?"

"Bullshit!" JOJO cursed, "I was drunk! What mutual consent?!"

She liked the pretty-boy type like Lu Zhan, not the playboy type like Song Xiao.

Though both had ’flower’ in their labels, their natures were completely different.

"So what are you saying? Let’s clear the air," Song Xiao was used to such situations.

But considering the other party was a friend of Jiang Man, he wanted to handle it properly to avoid affecting his relationship with Jiang Man.

"Name your price," he added.

"Shit!" JOJO cursed, "Do you know who I am?"
