Surveying the vast room, Gu Xiaoai rose from the bed, picked up her underwear and shirt, and headed toward the bathroom.
Li Juefeng watched her with a sidelong gaze, his eyes dark and deep. “Change in front of me.”
“Go see a doctor if you’re sick.”
Gu Xiaoai tossed the remark back and immediately felt her arm grasped firmly.
Hadn’t she already agreed to be his mistress? Couldn’t he give her a break just for today?
Frowning, Gu Xiaoai turned around to face Li Juefeng’s angry visage, his finger nearly poking her face. “Gu Xiaoai, I’m warning you, you are just a mistress. Don’t act so high and mighty in front of me.”
Since she had agreed to be his mistress, why put on airs of being unattainable?
“What else?” Gu Xiaoai retorted coolly. “Going to rape me again? Go ahead.”
She was already at her breaking point, dignity forsaken. What more did she have to fear?
This woman…
“Gu Xiaoai!” Li Juefeng clenched his teeth. “Don’t push me to hit you!”
Hit her?
Was he still resorting to violence?!
“Mr. Li, let’s get one thing straight – this is a transaction of mutual consent.” Gu Xiaoai spoke each word distinctly, her demeanor overpowering.
“A transaction of equivalent exchange, is it?” Li Juefeng snorted coldly and pulled a document envelope from a nearby cabinet, tossing it to her.
He would show her what equivalent exchange meant.
As Gu Xiaoai, stripped of the halo of a wealthy Young Lady, what remained of her value?
Confused, Gu Xiaoai opened the envelope only to find photos of Guan Nana and the star Ela sharing a kiss by the seaside. The photographer had clearly mastered the art of stealth, capturing the faces of the two stars distinctly…
This was indeed a major exclusive piece of news.
She should have been thrilled, yet she couldn’t muster a smile, feeling an urge to cry instead.
The news seemed to mock her, her price… merely worth a few scandalous photos of others.
Yet, she had no right to shed tears, having sold herself so cheaply.
Li Juefeng sat on the sofa, arms crossed and chin resting on his hands, leisurely observing her pitiable state, devoid of any sympathy in his eyes. “How about it? Feeling like taking that envelope and running off?”
Silent, Gu Xiaoai stared back at his wickedly smug expression, unable to utter a single word of rebuttal.
“Stop pretending to be above it all, take them off.”
Her lofty stance, her pride, her dignity, he intended to shatter them all.
This process was sure to be enjoyable.
