    After a long moment, she reconfirmed, “It’s really just a kiss?”

    Qi Zhi Iu re-emphasized her previous argument, her voice carrying an unquestionable insistence, “Su Wanqing, apologize with sincerity.”

    She swallowed nervously and managed to squeeze a smile on her face, “Okay.”

    In this small space, she couldn’t seem to find an excuse to escape.

    So, she took a deep breath, closed her eyes, slowly lowered her head, and her warm, soft lips gently touched his.

    However, in that very moment, his hand wrapped around and clasped the back of her head, not allowing her to flinch, pulling her into a deep, lingering kiss.

    The air in the car seemed to burn as a result, and the atmosphere became more and more uncontrollable.

    In an instant, the world turned upside down before her eyes, and she was passively pinned beneath him.

    “Qi Zhi Iu, you lied ……” Before she could finish, he once again bullied his way forward and sealed her mouth.

    ……

    The next day, Su Wanqing stood in front of the fitting mirror, trying on the dress that would soon accompany her to the banquet.

    The sales clerk on the side was busy praising, “Mrs. Qi, this gown really complements your temperament.”

    Using the reflection of the mirror, she quietly glanced at the man sitting on the couch not far away, leisurely smoking.

    A wave of mixed emotions welled up in his heart.

    “Are there …… any relatively less revealing gowns to choose from?”

    She asked softly, her hair, deliberately coiffed before she left the house, was now slightly disheveled, just enough to hide certain secrets around her neck and collarbone.

    If it were not so, the marks that were made because of him would be visible.

    “Mrs. Ki, may I ask which style you prefer?”

    The clerk asked patiently.

    “Preferably one with a stand-up collar, and …… not one with a high split design.”

    She replied, a hint of determination in her voice.

    “Understood, I’ll contact the main store for you for deployment.”

    The clerk was immediately busy.

    Su Wanqing casually grabbed the shawl on the side, covering her bare shoulders, and walked towards the man, kicking her feet lightly to show her dissatisfaction.

    Qi Zhiyu put down her phone and looked up to survey her, her expression slightly critical, “This one isn’t perfect.”

    She followed his gaze and looked down to examine the gown she was wearing, and wasn’t too happy with it either.

    But of all the options, this has been the relatively most conservative one.

    “I’m terribly sorry, Mrs. Kee. The last of the stand-up gowns has just been purchased. Perhaps ……”

    The clerk’s words were like a pot of cold water, dashing her expectations instantly.

    “Never mind, just this one. Please find me another suitable shawl to go with it.”

    She compromised, and as for the marks she couldn’t hide, she let her long, loose hair do the covering.

    She simply untied her hair and let her long hair fall naturally, covering those unknown secrets.

    “Well, that looks much better.”

    She nodded at herself in the mirror, finding some measure of peace in her mind.

    Su Wanqing possessed a head of long, black, thick hair, like the densest ink color in the night, cascading down to her waist, reflecting her porcelain white skin.

    On weekdays, for that busy and rigorous work, she used to tie these strands of green silk into a competent ponytail, simple but without losing the professional style of women in the workplace.

    At this time, the long hair like black satin scattered shoulders, with a few lazy flavor, but also reveals a gentle and dignified atmosphere, so that people do not feel a light in front of their eyes.
