Chapter 1774 Don't worry, it'll only be one night.
The implications in the words became ambiguous and unclear.
Shen Shuang froze, startled by the sudden change in his gaze and the unsettling scrutiny. Her previous anger was instantly replaced by a deeper sense of vigilance and disgust.
Wait, what does Xu Zhi mean by this?
Was he drunk or what?
He looked up at Xu Zhi.
Shen Shuang suddenly stepped back, her back pressed against the cold wall, creating a suffocating distance between them.
The color drained from his face, leaving only a cold wariness. "Xu Zhi, stay away from me!"
Seeing her looking as if she were facing a formidable enemy, Xu Zhi's playful smile deepened.
He temporarily forgot to inquire about Lian Shu, or rather, that question was no longer so important at the moment.
Shen Shuang, who was prickly and had fiery eyes, seemed to have become a more interesting new target that needed to be "conquered".
He gave what he thought was a very charming smile and took a small step forward.
"How far has your family's recent cooperation with Daheng Group progressed?"
At this moment, the alcohol gave his eyes not only a sense of oppression, but also an undisguised, playful scrutiny.
“Here’s the deal, you stay with me for one night,” he said, his voice lower, his breath, mixed with the smell of tobacco and alcohol, almost brushing against her face. “I can guarantee that the deal will proceed smoothly, and as for tonight… I can let it go.”
I could see that his small eyes were filled with amusement at me.
Shen Shuang immediately realized that her impatience had not deterred him, but rather seemed to have aroused some worse interest.
Oh my god...
Shen's pupils contracted sharply, and the blood in his body seemed to rush to his head and then instantly turn cold.
Suppressing her nausea, she gripped her phone tightly.
His fingertips turned white from the force, his chest heaved violently a few times, before he managed to squeeze out a voice through clenched teeth: "Xu Zhi... what kind of person do you take me for?"
"Who are you? Miss Shen, we're all sensible people, why are you pretending to be so high and mighty? Don't you know your family's current situation? Sleep with me for one night, and your family will get through this difficult time, isn't that a good deal?"
The stark white light in the emergency exit made Shen Shuang's face appear even paler.
Looking at the face in front of me, flushed with alcohol and brimming with confidence, my stomach churned, and a feeling of nausea rose up again.
If Shen Shuang hadn't known that Xu Zhi was incredibly petty and that he would spread rumors about her if she offended him even slightly, she would have wanted to spit bubbles in his face long ago.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Xu Zhi thought she was wavering, so he softened his tone, but it only made her more disgusting.
"Don't worry, it's just for one night. Afterwards, the collaboration will continue as usual, and I won't mention it to anyone else. You'll still be the glamorous Miss Shen..."
Thinking of that scene, Shen Shuang suddenly took a step back, her back slamming against the cold fire door with a "bang".
She raised her head, her eyes reddened with humiliation and anger, but her gaze was as cold as ice.
To be honest, if Jiang Cheng had that face, even if Xu Zhi was a terrible person, Shen Shuang would still hesitate for a moment and just consider herself as having been taken advantage of by a pig.
However, having gotten used to Jiang Cheng's handsome face, the contrast with Xu Zhi's ordinary face was just too great.
She found it very difficult to accept in a short period of time.
"Xu Zhi, let me tell you, I know absolutely nothing about Lian Shu, not a single word! As for you... even if the Shen family goes bankrupt tomorrow, I won't sleep with a disgusting person like you for even a minute!"
Although he admitted that he was momentarily struck by Shen Shuang's charm.
But Shen Shuang's expression instantly enraged him.
In his view, it was Shen Shuang's good fortune that he had taken a liking to her.
In terms of looks, Shen Shuang can't compare to the top beauties in her own song and dance troupe. If she likes those beauties, they would line up and beg her to have sex with two of them in one night.
He had taken a liking to Shen Shuang and promised her benefits, yet she was still nagging and refusing him.
"Shen Shuang, don't push your luck. Guess if your family went bankrupt, would your old man rush to my bed and obediently lick my boots..."
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Cheng's figure appeared as he walked up the stairs.
In an instant, Xu Zhi's unfinished threat froze on his lips.
Seeing Xu Zhi's expression change instantly, Shen Shuang turned her head as if she had thought of something.
Shen Shuang was completely stunned the moment she saw Jiang Cheng.
My heart almost stopped beating for a moment.
Why would Jiang Cheng come?
Were they here to use the restroom? Was it a coincidence, or...?
Amidst the speculation, an indescribable warm current, mixed with a sense of security from being saved from a desperate situation, surged and overwhelmed her previous anger and humiliation.
Seeing Jiang Cheng's gaze fixed on Shen Shuang, Xu Zhi's expression instantly became extremely interesting.
Astonishment, embarrassment, anger at being caught, and an instinctive fear of Jiang Cheng were like an overturned palette, mixing and shifting across his face.
He never expected Jiang Cheng to appear at this moment.
What made his heart sink even more was that Jiang Cheng's gaze and posture towards Shen Shuang clearly revealed a natural familiarity and protectiveness.
What exactly is going on?
Isn't Jiang Cheng with Jiang Churan?
Could it be that Shen Shuang is also having an affair with Jiang Cheng?
Seeing Jiang Cheng appear, Shen Shuang felt strangely at ease.
She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down quickly.
Judging from the current situation, she doesn't want things to get so ugly.
To reiterate, her relationship with Jiang Cheng wasn't enough for her to be confident that he would stand up for her.
Avoiding Xu Zhi's almost fiery gaze, Shen Shuang casually walked towards the sink.
I turned on the tap and, with the sound of the rushing water and the reflection in the mirror, quickly tidied my flustered emotions and appearance.
Jiang Cheng had already walked up to her side while she was washing her hands.
With a half-smile on his face, his gaze swept between Xu Zhi and Shen Shuang, finally settling on Shen Shuang's slightly pale face.
Then, with a long arm reaching out, he naturally and with undeniable strength, directly wrapped his arm around Shen Shuang's shoulder.
When Jiang Cheng suddenly put his arm around her, Shen Shuang's body instantly froze.
All the movements of my hands stopped, and only the sound of rushing water remained.
Startled, she looked up and met Jiang Cheng's gaze in the mirror.
Jiang Cheng in the mirror was much taller than her.
With his body slightly turned to the side, his relaxed posture exuded an indescribable sense of control.
