Earlier that same day, inside Yong Liwei's penthouse.historical

After dressing up Little Peanut into an adorable baby-sized dark blue tuxedo that matched perfectly with his father's navy blue retro suit, Lu Mengjie began dressing up.

She applied a minimal layer of cosmetics to her face, just enough to enhance her natural beauty. After applying pink lipstick, she donned a slender A-line knee-length dress with a blue flare flower printed design. With some difficulty, she was only able to pull the zipper halfway.

Lu Mengjie let out a grunt in frustration. She walked out of the bed and headed straight to her husband's home office to ask for help.

Upon entering, she saw him standing by the window, his back facing her. He had an airpod in his ear, he was talking with someone. He was giving the appearance of a very isolated individual, someone who was cut off from the rest of the world but fully capable of controlling it.

A large collection of images of her and their son hung on the room's wall. He kept photos of his wife and son everywhere he worked. She only recently found out that he was actually a sentimental type of man even though it wasn't obvious. It was only a side that was shown to her.

Little by little, she was beginning to know the man she married.

She stared at him as she leaned against the doorpost. He was clothed in two sections of a three-piece tailored navy blue suit. She licked her lips as her eyes landed on his sexy ass and his muscular back enveloped in a vest. Not only handsome but he has the most perfect and sexy body a woman could ask for from a man.

She had the urge to run her fingers on his body, caress his beautifully shaped ass like it was her baby.

He turned to her, his steely stare catching her.

Of course, he was aware that she was present and was watching him. His senses were razor-sharp, like those of a predator's. Before he faced her, he probably purposefully held back for a few seconds just to give her a chance to check him out. Yup, this man was all hers. Only hers.

Yong Liwei knew how much his wife enjoyed staring at his beauty as if he was a magnificent piece of art.

The scowl on his face remained as he continued to talk with the unfortunate man on the other side of the call but his gaze warmed from cold annoyance when they peered into each other's eyes.

"I'll check it tomorrow," he finished. Without tearing his gaze from her, he removed the earpiece and dropped it on his desk. "Come, Mengjie."

He said her name in such a way that made her shudder again. He used the same domineering tone as when she was beneath him, eager to reach her peak as he worked his way on her body.

Lu Mengjie intended to ask him for help on zipping up her dress, but it looked like she was going to undress instead if she stayed longer in the same room as him.

She was in the mood to tease him. They have time. There was no rush for the dinner that was still three hours away.

She smiled sweetly at him before she turned her back to him. She deliberately combed her hair to the side to expose a part of her bareback. "We have to be on time for tonight's dinner, darling."

His eyes scorched in heat. He instantly knew what his wife was trying to do.

"Mengjie," he warned.

Ignoring his words, she walked back into the hallway although Yong Liwei's lengthy stride quickly caught up to hers. In the next moment, Lu Mengjie found herself pinned to the wall by her tall and sexy husband.

"Love, you're well aware of the consequences of fleeing, right?" He bit her lower lip before he soothed the sting with his tongue. "I'll pursue you... And fuck you."

He looked so damn sexy with the lipstick smudged on his lips. Something inside her sighed contentedly, eager to be subjugated by him. "Ah.. I guess I've been caught."

He lightly nuzzled his nose on hers and smiled as he said, "You can't just walk away after giving me such a beautiful smile. You must have been smiling for some reason. Am I the reason?"

"Yes. In fact, your ass is the reason for making me smile. Your ass is sexier than mine. Ahh, I need to get the image of your ass out of my mind, darling."

"I'll be damned if I'll let you," he snorted. Her jaw was clasped and her lower lip was rubbed by his thumb. "I want you to put everyone else out of your mind and focus solely on me."

"You mean focus only on your butt? Sure~ I don't mind." She giggled happily.

His irresistible gaze, his bewitching words, and the tantalizing aroma of the cologne he sprayed on his suit that entered her nostrils, absolutely captivated her. He was enchanting her again. With a soft groan, he sealed her lips once again.

She was his drug and he had no intention of quitting.

Lu Mengjie kissed him back, her tongue dancing along with his as she ran her fingers through his hair to keep him steady. His once neatly styled hair was not in a mess, causing him to look a hundred times hotter than he already was.

He carried her to the nearest room, his study.

"We can't.." she breathed out.

He chuckled as he gently placed her down on his sofa. With a domineering smirk, he asked, "Then, should I stop?"

She pressed her lips. He obviously knew that she wanted him even if she showed a hint of hesitation. She had never felt so needy. It was always because of him.

Lu Mengjie drew her eyes at the wall clock behind him. In the end, she gave in to her desires for him. "We have time."

"We always did, love," he replied before leaning forward to her for another deep and heated kiss.
