Chapter 137 Shame and panic entwined her heart like vines.
After doing all this, he turned and walked out of the bedroom, quickly went into the bathroom, and closed the door behind him.
"This is terrible."
He leaned against the door, cursing under his breath. The lust in his eyes had not yet faded, and the heat and tension in his body made him feel uncomfortable all over.
The cold water washed over my body, but it still couldn't extinguish the fire in my heart.
It took him a while to barely suppress the pounding in his heart.
I dried myself off, put on my pajamas, and left the bathroom.
But the burning heat still hadn't subsided.
He walked to the bedroom door again, gently pushed it open a crack, and looked at Su Wan sleeping soundly on the bed. His eyes were full of tenderness and restraint. In the end, he couldn't bear to touch her or wake her up.
She was sleeping soundly, her brows slightly furrowed, as if she were having a dream.
Her cheeks were still slightly flushed, and there was a faint smile on her lips, making her look delicate and cute.
He turned and walked out of the bedroom, picked up the cigarettes and lighter from the coffee table, and went to the balcony.
Pushing open the balcony door, the evening breeze, carrying the coolness of the night, blew in, dispelling some of the heat from my body.
He lit a cigarette, the cigarette between his fingers.
As he exhaled and puffed out smoke, the smoke swirled around his eyebrows and eyes, obscuring the emotions in them.
He leaned against the balcony railing, his gaze fixed on the distant night view.
The night in Seoul was still deep, with the lights of the skyscrapers shining brightly and neon lights flashing, outlining the city's silhouette.
Vehicles continued to come and go on the road, their headlights forming a long, golden dragon, gentle and dazzling.
He had never realized before how beautiful the night view of Seoul was.
But now, looking at these lights, I think of the girl sleeping soundly in the bedroom.
A gentle smile unconsciously crept onto his lips.
He knew that when Su Wan woke up, she would be both ashamed and angry, she would question him, and she might never want to see him again.
But he couldn't care less about that. From the moment he decided to win her back, he never thought of giving up.
Since she likes this city and its vibrant atmosphere, then it's not impossible for him to give up his family's arrangements and stay in Seoul for her sake.
But back home...
He frowned, a hint of headache flashing in his eyes. The expectations of his family and the arrangements of his clan weighed on his heart like a mountain.
But after a moment, he felt relieved, and his eyes regained their determination.
No one can stop his decision; what he wants to do is unaffected by anyone and cannot be changed.
Just like now, he is relentlessly pursuing her, even though she pushes him away time and time again, even though the road ahead is full of thorns, he has never thought of turning back.
When she wakes up, he will take her to see the house.
He didn't care which place to buy or how big it was, as long as she was happy, as long as he could be closer to her, as long as he could protect her, that was enough.
Lu Chenyuan raised the corners of his lips, took a drag of his cigarette, and slowly exhaled the smoke, which dissipated in the evening breeze.
He looked at the distant night view again, his eyes filled with tenderness and certainty, and murmured softly.
"The night view of Seoul is really nice, really nice."
The clock on the wall ticked away, its hands having already quietly slipped past three in the morning.
At this moment, Su Wan, in her bedroom, was violently awakened by a surging erotic dream.
"ah--"
A soft scream caught in her throat, and she jerked herself up from the bed.
His chest heaved violently as he gasped for breath.
Her forehead was covered in fine beads of cold sweat, and even her sundress was soaked, clinging tightly to her skin and giving off a slightly cool feeling.
The dream I just had was so vivid, so vivid that every touch and every breath felt real and lingered around me.
She dreamt that Lu Chenyuan had trapped her tightly on a soft bed, his tall body looming over her, burning hot.
His large hand roughly yet gently ripped off her black slip dress.
His fingertips traced every inch of her sensitive skin, and kisses rained down on her forehead, brows, neck, and down her neck with an irresistible force.
She was like a tamed little animal, crying and begging for mercy beneath him, but he was like a tireless beast, his eyes surging with an intense, overwhelming desire, taking again and again without ever stopping.
Her initial struggles gradually turned into surrender; the hands that had been patting his shoulders eventually gripped his back tightly.
Soft sobs mingled with his deep growls, spreading freely in the quiet bedroom until she was completely exhausted and finally drifted off to sleep in his arms.
Then she woke up with a start.
This wasn't the first time she'd had such a erotic dream.
From the moment I first met Lu Chenyuan, I was drawn to his cold yet domineering aura. Almost every night, I would be haunted by such dreams, my mind filled with his image.
Never before had anything been so clear, so real, so real that it made her body burn with heat, and the throbbing in her heart and shame were intertwined, almost overwhelming her.
She looked around blankly before realizing that she was lying on Lu Chenyuan's bed.
The next second, everything that happened on the sofa came rushing back like a tidal wave, clearly appearing in my mind.
His sexy figure with his shirt off, his burning kisses, his wanton caresses...
The calluses on his palms, his suppressed breathing, and her own descent into depravity and compromise.
She remembered her hand reaching uncontrollably towards his abs, the firm texture of which felt amazing.
I remember gradually softening into a puddle of water, letting him take whatever he wanted.
I remember that in the end, she was kissed until she was breathless and fell into a drowsy sleep.
"This is outrageous...this is absurd..."
Su Wan bit her lip hard, her fingertips gripping the bed sheet beneath her tightly.
His knuckles turned white, and his cheeks instantly turned so red they looked like they were about to bleed.
Shame and panic entwined her heart like vines.
How did she become like this?
How could I let down all my defenses and stubbornness in front of him time and time again, and fall into his kisses again and again?
She clearly wanted to push him away, clearly wanted to cut off all thoughts, but why did her body betray her heart?
She dared not linger any longer. Almost instantly, she threw off the thin blanket, stumbled off the bed, and rushed barefoot to the bedroom door.
The cold floor against my feet brought a moment of clarity, but the panic in my heart only intensified.
She's leaving, now, immediately, right now!
Even if there really is a murderer outside the door, even if taking a taxi alone late at night is dangerous, she doesn't want to stay in this place filled with his presence, which makes her lose her mind and dignity.
She suddenly pulled the bedroom door open, making a soft sound.
This subtle movement had already been noticed by Lu Chenyuan on the balcony.
Almost the instant she got out of bed, he stubbed out his cigarette, turned around, and strode into the living room. Just as he reached the vicinity of the entrance, he saw a disheveled figure rushing toward the door.
Su Wan's long hair was loosely draped over her shoulders, with a few stray strands sticking to her sweaty cheeks.
Her snow-white skin gleamed with a delicate sheen in the dim light, and one shoulder strap of her black slip dress had slipped down, revealing her exquisite collarbone and a hickey on her shoulder.
She was completely unaware of her surroundings, barefoot, her steps hurried, her eyes filled with the urgency to escape.
