Walking into her room Ying Yue leaned against her door and closed her eyes with a sigh. Memories of the day sped past her eyes while regret filled her inwardly.
'I shouldn't have exposed myself like that.' In the moment she felt like having fun and felt the need to join but it contradicted her current lifestyle. Her mission right now was to live a quiet life, the more she exposed her skills the closer people were to discovering the truth. Despite everything she was glad that she had least held back her skills. How she fought today was just her playing around, to the average person she could pass as a trained martial arts fighter.
Thinking back to Xi Long, she remembered seeing him ruthlessly move and fight against the men. They were armed but he didn't hesitate for a second and at the same time protected her. Her eyes were dazed as she watched him, being the woman she was and the history she has a skilled fighter was extremely attractive to her. Everything about him was dangerous but she couldn't help but feel more and more drawn to him. Running her hands over her lips she blushed at letting him take advantage of her again.
'I cannot believe that he kissed me AGAIN! Is he a pervert or something?! Always kissing me and didn't even ask for my permission first! Not that I would give my permission....he just caught me off guard that's it. Jiang Ying Yue get it together!'
Lost in her thoughts she failed to hear the bathroom door close until she felt the door open behind her pushing her forward. Caught by surprise she stumbled a bit and turned around to see Xi Long standing at her doorway shirtless. Small drops of water dripped down his body and trailed down his hard body. She gulped as she followed the water drops with her eyes until they disappeared into his pants. Her eyes engraved his body into her mind as she tried to capture all the details. His body was delicious. Rock hard abs, a sharp v-line, a small trail of hair and small scars sprinkled across his chest.
"Like what you see? Don't worry kitten its all yours...for looking and touching."
"Who wants to see that? I've seen better!"
His face dropped in anger, shortening the distance he went towards her in quick strides. "Who." His body was tense and black aura filled the room. The idea that she had seen another man shirtless and that she preferred that man filled him with jealousy. Glaring back at her he waited till she uttered that man's name.
"Speak his name kitten. Tell me who it is and I'll end him!"
Ying Yue wasn't expecting this reaction. He was teasing her one second and the other he was angry. How was she to answer him now?! Other than her friends and her family she had never seen a man shirtless. Let alone find him attractive?! 'Think Ying Yue, think!! What should I say.' It was hard enough thinking of how to calm him down but here he was seducing her with his damn body making it harder for her to think.
"Hmph I have no reason to answer you. The question is why are you not getting a shower and instead spilling water all over my floors."
"Escaping the question huh?" He chuckled darkly. "I promise kitten the only man's body you'll remember in future is mine - that I'll make sure of and to answer your question...I need a towel."
"Oh..oh I'll grab you one." Slightly flushed from his possessive promise she went to grab him his extra towel. Handing it to him she averted her eyes and basically pushed it into his arms.
"You know kitten, showering together would save us water and time. What do you say? Want to join me?" Xi Long smirked as he watched her flushed face get redder from his words. He was still a little angry at the mention of another man but watching her reactions he knew that he affected her. She could lie but her body couldn't.
Feeling her face heat up she glared at him. "You...you...shameless! Get out!" Pushing him out of her room she heard him laugh. Hearing the bathroom door close she could finally calm down. Tearing of her clothes she threw them into the laundry hamper. Before she could completely take everything off she remembered the man currently in the bathroom. She couldn't walk out in just a towel with him around. Waiting around she sat on the floor scrolling through her phone till he was done. Without sparing him a look she entered the bathroom and locked the door behind her. She could smell the heat from the shower and his cologne fill the room. Quickly stripping of her remaining clothes she entered the shower and scrubbed off all the blood. The hot water eased the tension on her muscles and relaxed her. Finishing her shower she put on a shirt and shorts before exiting the washroom.

Han Xi Long sat on the couch while he sent out orders to his men. He had his men gather intel and pinpoint who orchestrated the attack and where they currently were. While he knew the name already he had to make sure that no one else was connected. Finishing his business he heard the bathroom door open. Turning around to look at her he felt his mouth turn dry. She was fresh out of the shower, steam floating behind her. Her skin was flushed from the heat while her long jade legs were exposed. Out of all the outfits she could have chosen she decided on shorts. SHORTS! Does she want me to live? How many times will this woman seduce me today?!
Seeing her casually walking towards him he gripped her wrist and pulled her onto his lap. Holding her on his lap he positioned her to sit on her side so he could hold her in his embrace and touch those dreamy legs of her. In a gruff voice he whispered in her ear, "Kitten, are you seducing me?"
"Seducing you? These are just shorts! Who wants to seduce you?!"
He laughed, "Lot's of women but you are the only one who succeeded."
Struggling in his lap she tried to escape him as she felt his hands stroke her bare thighs. Anger filled her from everything that happened today. He kept on touching her and playing with her however he liked and it had to stop. Now. She wasn't that type of woman! Not thinking straight she yelled, "Han. Xi. Long. I'm warning you now. Let me go!!!"
His strokes stopped as he heard her words.
"How do you know my name."
