Gu Shaoting could feel her discomfort, but he was helpless.
He regretted letting her and Huanhuan go to the banquet, it was really worrying.
âI want water, Iâm thirsty,â Shu Pan felt like her throat was on fire.
She clung to Gu Shaotingâs neck, constantly pleading for water because she was extremely thirsty.
Her eyes were slightly widened, blinking innocently.
The man lowered his gaze, gently rubbing her tender face, âBe good, let go of me now, and I can give you some water to drink.â
Shu Pan couldnât understand what he meant, she just wanted water.
As long as he was there, she would feel at ease.
Gu Shaoting heard her request for water, but she refused to let him get up.
Helplessly, he had to carry her off the bed to fetch water.
Shu Pan hung onto him like a koala.
Gu Shaoting finally managed to pour a glass of water, bringing it to her lips. She gulped it down in a few swallows.
Her throat finally felt less uncomfortable, the coolness of the water providing some relief.
âPanpan.â
The manâs Adamâs apple bobbed as he called her name, his voice low and sexy, like the melody of a cello.
Then, his deep gaze lowered, staring into her eyes with an intensity that sent shivers down her spine.
Shu Pan let out a muffled sound, looking up at the man, feeling bewildered.
In an instant, the man kissed her with astonishing speed.
His kiss was passionate and lingering, leaving her powerless to resist.
Shu Pan felt like this moment was the most real.
The man didnât say another word, but his strong arms tightly embraced Shu
Panâ¦
The night was still young, and the romantic interlude between lovers had only just begunâ¦
Next Day
Shu Pan whimpered and woke up. Looking around at the unfamiliar room, she froze as memories of last night flooded her mind like a tidal wave.
She suddenly felt a dull ache in her head, shaking it slightly. How could this have happened? She still couldnât understand.
Then she heard the sound of running water from the bathroom. She remembered that Gu Shaoting had arrived last, so she guessed it was him inside, which relieved her. Thank goodness he came, otherwise she couldnât imagine what might have happened.
Alone in the room, she slowly pulled back the covers and looked at herself in the mirror, feeling stunned.
It seemed like the first time something like this had ever happened to her.
And because of the drugs, she didnât feel like herself anymore. Thinking about it, she really wanted to find a hole to crawl into at this moment, it was so embarrassing.
She covered her face with her hands, blushing as if she were about to bleed.
She couldnât quite understand how attending a banquet had led to this. Who could have done this to her?
She sat there, feeling anxious.
Gu Shaoting must be furious, she thought, because he had initially refused to let her go, and she had insisted on accompanying Huanhuan.
Who would have thought something like this would happen?
Could it have been Tong Fei? She might still hold a grudge, thinking Shu Pan had stolen Gu Shaoting from her, so she wanted to retaliate.
It wasnât impossible, but she had no evidence, so she couldnât be sure.
But she probably wouldnât want to go to such complicated gatherings in the future, because this lesson was unforgettable, wasnât it?
She curled up, preparing herself for Gu Shaotingâs scolding.
Sigh, itâs been a tough year, feeling like thereâs so much going on.
She rubbed her temples, feeling helpless..
