Chapter 8 - CHAPTER 8: NICK NAME

At this point Feilan was so broken and drunk that she boldly asked a complete stranger a very unreasonable question.

The stranger was surprised by the odd question and he looked at the drunk and naive looking lady before him as he contemplated her question with interest.

"You're a very strange one, aren't you little flower" The man complimented as his lips curled into an amused smirk.

Feilan frowned and said in a voice that was meant to be serious but ended up sounding like a complaining kid

"My name isn't little flower...am Shao Feilan....please don't call me little flower"

The man chuckled finding Feilan amusing and he nonchalantly said

"My name isn't baby...but you called me baby so I thought it would only be fair I give you a nick name too little flower"

The man's eyes glowed mischievously and Feilan blushed uncontrollably.

"I had said that in a moment of desperation" Feilan defensively said.

The man shrugged and continued to say "About your question..."

The man started and Feilan perked up her ears. She wanted to hear another man's opinion on the issue and know if she really was at fault...

Feilan felt nervous when the stranger started speaking.

"Firstly, I don't do commitments...so I don't know what I would do if I had such a fiancee

"Secondly, the women that ever get the chance to get near me know exactly what I want of them...so they know how to behave

"But I'll give you a spoiler because you're a naive little flower....the closest those women can ever get to me is in my bed and that's where they stay

"They mean nothing to me...so they know better than to throw tantrums or expect me to marry them

"To put it simply Miss Shao.."

the stranger said as she glanced Feilan with an amused smirk.

"I get what I want....and when it comes to women....they practically throw themselves at me with the full knowledge that I will never marry any of them"

"So my sex life isn't dependent on my marital status with any woman"

Feilan's mouth hang agape from shock and her small face was turning red from embarrassment.

She wasn't even the one speaking but she was practically blushing like she was the one boldly speaking about her relationship and 'active' feminine side.

She was practically blushing on behalf of this strange man.

This strange man was truly bold if he could speak about his vigorous sex life like it was a simple tea talk.

He didn't even bat an eyelid as he spoke calmly and matter of factly moreover to her....a stranger.

Feilan clutched her beating heart...she knew she had made a mistake asking such a delicate question to this perverted man who boldly asked to sleep with her on their first encounter.

Moreover, all she would have needed was a simple no or yes to her question but he had told her how he dealt with women and relationships.

And his ways left the simple minded Feilan a blushing mess and he wasn't even done speaking yet.

Feilan had a feeling that this man wasn't just telling her this for the sake but there must be a hidden agenda behind his elaboration.

"Lastly, all my relationships are contract based.....so the contract dictates whether you stay a day, a week or a month...

"It dictates how to behave and what I'd expect of any partner....so whether I marry you or not is none of your business....but if the contract states that your body is subject to me....then who are you to decline"

This stranger spoke calmly like he was speaking business and Feilan was speechless.

Never in her life would she have imagined such a day where she would actually find such a man.

To him, it seemed women were only good for the bed....nothing more. This man seemed very cold, distant and indifferent especially to women's feelings.

He seemed like an emotionless shell when it came to love and seriously committed relationships.

So Feilan couldn't help but wonder why this strange man had told her all this or why he was speaking to her in the first place.

She didn't have to wonder too long cause the man suddenly looked at her seriously with a penetrative gaze that left no room for questions or error.

Feilan's body tensed up and her breathing quickened up a bit.

All of a sudden, this man before her seemed a bit scary and dangerous....Feilan was regretting her luck for her poorly executed random pick.

Why had she pointed here of all directions...

This man made her feel a crazy kind of oppression and the way he was looking at her made her feel like she was being watched by a wolf and she was the little red riding hood.

Feilan knew she was in even bigger trouble with this man than with Rulong... very big trouble.

And the man hadn't even said a word but instinct told Feilan that this man planned on doing something with her....and this man's overbearing aura left her defenseless.

The man's lips curled into a mirthless smirk as he looked into Feilan's crystalline amber eyes that flickered with worry

He calmly asked "Are you scared of the big bad and mysterious wolf now little flower....are you about to run with your petals still intact"

The man asked in his deep and low voice that held a tingle of coldness in it.

Feilan shivered lightly but then pouted again in displeasure after being called little flower.

She looked at the man and said in a feisty voice "I told you..am Shao Feilan....Shao Feilan...Sha..."

Feilan's complaints were cut short as the man's long and slender index finger ended on her lips....his lips curling into a beautiful crescent moon.

He seemed amused by her childish behaviour and defensiveness.

Feilan on the other hand immediately felt an electrifying current flow through her body when that man's finger touched her lips.

All the heat in her body rushed up to her face making her face a deep and bright red.

The man chuckled as he withdrew his hand.

Feilan was too busy blushing to notice the man narrowing his much darker grey eyes at her before he returned to normal.

Well..emotionless to say the least.

Feilan did her best to curb her blushing spree. She coughed awkwardly as she lowered her head but the man's voice drew her attention.
