Dangerous Man
âI-Iâm fine,â Lin Wan murmured, resisting Xiao Yichenâs hand as she attempted to lower her head.
Xiao Yichen firmly held her chin, his gaze serious and unwavering, allowing no room for resistance. With a somber expression, he inquired, âYouâre not going to tell me?â
Meeting Xiao Yichenâs intense stare, Lin Wan sensed his anger and grew afraid of the consequences. Reluctantly, she recounted everything that had transpired that day.
Upon hearing her account, Xiao Yichenâs face darkened further. He scrutinized Lin Wan from head to toe and asked with a touch of concern, âAre you injured anywhere else?â
Obeying, Lin Wan shook her head. âNo.â
âAre you absolutely certain?â Xiao Yichen pressed.
Lin Wan locked eyes with him, her lips pursed, and she nodded earnestly.
Satisfied with her response, Xiao Yichen refrained from further inquiry. He remained with Lin Wan in the living room for a while before heading to the dining room for dinner.
After the meal, Xiao Yichen retreated to his study and summoned You Luan, issuing her two specific orders. Subsequently, he engaged in a video conference with the Russian branch company.
Meanwhile, Lin Wan, having showered, lay on the bed. Her mind was consumed by the troubles of the day, and she drifted into a hazy slumber.
In her dreams, she traversed childhood memories that eventually morphed into an erotic fantasy.
Despite the dream feeling strangely vivid, Lin Wanâs exhaustion overwhelmed her. Unwilling to awaken, she surrendered to the familiar sensations, continuing the dream.
â¦
When the alarm sounded the next morning, Lin Wan felt even sleepier than the previous night. However, a vague recollection informed her that she had work obligations for the day.
Reluctantly, Lin Wan fought off her drowsiness and roused herself. Opening her eyes, she prepared to get up and freshen up.
Could it be that last night wasnât merely a dream?
When she regained her composure, Lin Wan clenched her teeth and averted her gaze. Xiao Yichen was nowhere to be found.
âXiao Yichen, you jerk,â Lin Wan muttered before heading to the bathroom to freshen up.
Half an hour later, Lin Wan descended the stairs and spotted Xiao Yichen seated in the dining room, patiently waiting for her to join him for breakfast.
After a silent meal, just as Lin Wan was about to grab her bag and leave for work, Xiao Yichen grasped her arm.
Xiao Yichenâs eyes studied Lin Wanâs lovely face, adorned with light makeup. A hint of tenderness and seriousness shone through as he spoke, âIf thereâs anything, call me.â
Yesterdayâs incident had made him realize that he hadnât protected her adequately, prompting him to issue a reminder now.
âOkay,â Lin Wan nodded, thinking she could finally make her exit now that Xiao Yichen had finished speaking.
However, before she could turn away, Xiao Yichenâs face suddenly loomed larger in front of her. And thenâ¦
Xiao Yichen pressed his lips against Lin Wanâs, engaging in a lingering kiss before finally releasing her captivating red lips. He also let go of her hand, granting her permission to leave.
Lin Wan scurried away like a startled kitten, wishing she could vanish from Xiao Yichenâs sight for a brief moment.
This man was too dangerous, incredibly dangerous!

In the Eastern Empire, as soon as Xiao Yichen settled into his office, You Luan presented him with the results of his overnight work.
âPresident Xiao, as per your instructions last night, Lin Qingqing has been blacklisted. She will never secure another modeling job in the future. The entire fashion industry will shun her,â You Luan informed him.
Xiao Yichen nodded in acknowledgment.
âHere are the details regarding the trading company you acquired. All the necessary procedures will be finalized by tomorrow afternoon at the latest. Following your instructions, this company now falls under the management of the Eastern Empire, with you as the legal representative,â You Luan concluded, handing over the document he held to his superior.
