That night, Yuan Shun took a cold shower to help with his pent up arousal.
He was beginning to think that he needed to deal with Shi Yen in some way. She was toying with him, and he was letting her, which was a mistake on his part.
He knew Shi Yen was a venomous thing that only wanted to possess and not take responsibility for it. But he thought that he had the self-control to resist because it would piss her off, even more, knowing that she can't break him.
And yet, he was crumbling like dry clay anytime she was around him.
Yuan Shun splashed cold water on his face.
After he finished, he stepped out of the shower, wrapping a towel around his waist.
He figured that, for now, he would only focus on work.
He reminded himself that he was Yuan Shun. Up until now, nothing rattled him; nothing shook him. Shi Yen was only a mystery he wanted to solve. She was a secretive person, even though she was always expected to be like her father.
