In the corridor, a fat man wearing a suit wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Our Mr. Chen just ordered the stage for Mr. Jin. Why isn't she here yet?"

"Yes, he ordered it for a girl who just arrived the day before yesterday. Her stage name is The Number One Jewel."

“Where is she now? Mr. Jin is here, but the girl isn’t. She’s ruining Mr. Chen’s business. Can you guys afford to pay for it?”

"She should be on her way..." the waiter began to apologize, but the fat man continued to scold him arrogantly.

However, at that moment, a woman who had been leaning against the wall suddenly stumbled over.

She narrowed her eyes, looking at the door in front of her and then at the two men outside it. "You...don't want to go in?" she said in a daze.

The two of them looked at each other, not moving. The woman frowned. “Forget it. If you don’t want to go in, I will!”

They were both stunned, but the fat man finally managed to say, “Miss, are you The Number One Jewel?”

It was not unusual for a young girl to drink on her first day, but this girl was obviously very drunk.

Zuo Aiai frowned. "Hehe...The Number One Jewel? Of course I'm number one... Everyone in Binhai City knows that I'm..."

"Yes, yes, that's her. HURRY UP AND OPEN THE DOOR! Mr. Chen has been waiting for this for a long time! HURRY UP!"

Jin Di had never liked doing business with people who were not punctual.

He took one last look at his watch, confirming that ten minutes had passed since the time they'd agreed upon.

He loosened his tie before picking up his car keys, standing up, and walking out the door.

However, the moment he opened the door to the private room, a figure crashed into his arms.

Before he had time to think, Jin Di reflexively stretched out his hand and pushed. He realized that the figure had been a woman—and that the woman was now lying on the sofa.

The door to the private room closed behind him immediately after he stepped through it. Furrowing his brow, Jin Di stepped forward and pulled. Sure enough, the door was locked!

Just what was Chen Dequan playing at?

When Zuo Aiai staggered and fell onto the sofa, the unexpected softness beneath her body made her feel a bit surprised.

"Wow, when did the bathroom get so nice? There's even a sofa in here? Haha, Leiting thought of everything...Ah! My stomach hurts..."

She laughed as she stood up, her body swaying as she walked over to him.

Jin Di's eyes darkened at her behavior. Stepping forward, he grabbed the woman's hand roughly. His voice was icy when he replied.

"Miss, this isn't the bathroom!"

Zuo Aiai looked at him wide-eyed. After a moment, her face broke into a sweet smile.

"Ziyi! You're back!"

Jin Di frowned, but before he had time to think of a retort, Zuo Aiai had wrapped an arm around his waist.

He realized, too late, that it would be impossible at this point to push her away without touching her.

The only thing left to do was to reach out and grab her hand, pulling her whole body away from his body...

However, the moment he touched her skin, his closed eyes suddenly opened and for a second, he saw himself! And he could clearly see the slender woman wrapped in his embrace, too. The thin strap of her gown had slipped from her shoulder as she stumbled toward him.

Snapping back to reality, he remembered that he’d been about to push her away…

But before he could, she reached up on tiptoe on pressed her lips to his.

There was a buzzing sound in his ears.

And he felt like his brain was exploding.

'A woman’s lips are soft and sweet,' he thought to himself. 'Like little animals trying to please someone.'

His body gradually warmed up, his eyes burned, and he could not help but curse in his heart, S-H-I-T!!

The woman's voice seemed to come from far away.

In it, there was a faint sadness. "Ziyi, don't hate me, okay?"
