Deep in the night, Jiang XinYan was making the final preparations for the proposal she will announce in two months' time when her phone suddenly rang.
Seeing the caller, she instantly became amused.
"Ah-Lan do you miss auntie again?" She asked.
"It's Wen JunXi. It's very late for Ah-Lan to be up, he's asleep." A deep sultry male voice resounded, bringing forth a fluttering feeling upon her stomach.
"Oh."
Jiang Xi Yan checked the time and seeing how late it was, she suddenly yawned in exhaustion.
"Wen JunXi, why are you calling me so late?"
"You answered very fast, what are you doing up so late?" He changed the subject immediately.
Jiang XinYan frowned.
"What else but work?"
"Don't stay up working so late, it's not healthy." He reminded her.
"Says the person who called me at this hour. Wen JunXi you're really getting comfortable, aren't you. Do you remember who I am?" Her voice was stern.
"Of course, I do. It's you who has forgotten who I am."
Although his voice became softer, it was laced with a deep feeling of pain that Jiang XinYan could not understand.
"How could I forget? You're the Wen JunXi, chairman of Wen Corporation, you have added billions in Wen Corporation's net worth ever since being officiated at such a young age. Your method is so renowned no one can replicate it."
She heard him chuckle. "Such praises, you've studied me greatly Miss Jiang."
"Of course." She told him. "One has to know one's enemy all the way down to the core."
"What to do? Although you consider me enemy, I see you as a prize to be won." His voice was suddenly sultry and seductive.
Jiang XinYan didn't know why her heart accelerated in response. She's heard many men using cheesy pick-up lines to woo her and never felt anything. And yet hearing Wen JunXi using such words in such a tone, her heart was already waning.
"You're very smooth, Mr Wen."
"If you want, I can be smoother." His voice seemed to take nosedive, the tone becoming enticed with something else.
Jiang XinYan felt something churn deep inside her. She quickly crossed her legs and swallowed hard.
"Wen JunXi, what do you want?" She asked him, meaning to ask him why he was calling her so late.
"Jiang XinYan, have I still not made myself clear?" He equally rebutted.
"Audacious!" She quickly cut the call and blacklisted him.
This man was dangerous. She should not take heed; he was a businessman. XinYan now could understand exactly how dangerous he was. She would not know what hit her until it's too late. If she did not guard herself, he would eat her up instantly.
Why does it have to Wen JunXi? Why does her body respond like that to him. Ever since she met him, it felt like all her love cells seemed to have awakened.
This was the first time she had ever felt such attraction for someone. But for it to be her enemy, Jiang XinYan knew really could not afford to entertain it.
Knowing she won't even sleep tonight, Jiang XinYan still made her way to her bed.
In her dreams, she saw Wen JunXi giving her the most ridiculous proposal.
"...In addition to paying for your friend's medical treatment, I'll give you everything you'll ever need." He told her enticingly.
"You won't have to worry about shelter or food. In my world you'll be Mrs Wen, you'll live fashionably wealthy. All you have to do is submit yourself to me."
Her naive self was instantly bewitched by him and his promises. To live a life not having to worry when the next meal will be; not having to worry how to earn money. It was very enticing indeed.
"Okay."
She agreed to his proposal.
"You'll marry me?"
"Mm."
"Then let's go to the Bureau of affairs right away."
"Aiya, we cannot."
"Why not?" He suddenly frowned.
"I'm not twenty yet. They won't allow me." She became downtrodden instantly.
"Oh." He seemed to think about it.
"Then let's marry off country. I have dual citizenship in S country."
"Sure!" She agreed immediately.
That same day he proposed she official moved into his condominium. That same night she saw herself submitting herself to him as promised.
He took her first time roughly, as if he himself did not know what he was doing. Then later, as he went with feeling, he became gentler.
After the second round, her body had adjusted and accommodated him. She saw herself also beginning to enjoy it. Her moans triggered him even more.
He took her over and over, two rounds becoming four and lasting the whole night until she went unconscious.
It was a night of completely pure passion that had left her so exhausted, she slept in the plane the next day as they made their way to S country to get married.
