Chapter Sixteen: Passion VS Indifference

  The low and thick voice fell into Tong Mai's ears one word at a time, not loud, but enough to make her feel suffocated and depressed.

  Going to bed...

  He was deliberately reminding them of what happened that night. Her face had turned completely red with shame, and she didn't dare to show her face in public. If she had known that Huo Yize was Yin Yuqi's fiancé, how could she have possibly chosen him? If it wasn't for that night, when she had drunk a bit of wine and was feeling empty and lonely to the point of madness, how could she have so easily given away her chastity?

  Recalling these events, Tong Mai also blamed himself for his impulsive and rash behavior. However, when facing He Yi Ze at such a close distance, his heart was like a tightly strung bowstring, on the verge of collapse, yet about to shatter into death...

  This guy Hao Yize is really poisonous, actually playing some kind of psychological warfare with her. Look at his eyes, dark and gloomy, making people feel infinitely terrified, yet unable to guess what he's thinking about right now.

  Tong Mai still didn't speak, struggling desperately. The more she resisted, the tighter He Yi Ze's grip became. The force was so strong it seemed intentional to hurt her. A strange fire raged in his chest as he glared at Tong Mai's crimson face, making her heart feel like it was going to jump out of her skin...

  Apart from Yín Yǔqí, it is undeniable that he has other women. This is a common trait among the sons of wealthy families - they can never be tied down by just one woman. However... Tóng Mài was the first person to provoke his anger and also the first person to resist him.

  The woman under him, which one didn't use all her strength to fawn and please him? What does she mean now? Is she playing hard to get?

  His good-looking lips slightly hooked, gazing at Tong Mai's eyes, which became even more profound and unfathomable. He leaned in closer to her, his face landing on the nape of her neck, without any other woman's thick, pungent perfume, only a light, refreshing scent, just like herself, like the dawn sun, fresh and fragrant, making one's heart flutter with longing.

  Unfortunately, she only has a clear appearance, but her heart is full of ulterior motives, waiting for others to fall into the trap...

  "Let me go!" Tong Mai finally couldn't help but shout out in anger, but her voice... still lacked conviction. In front of Huo Yize, she was like a child who had done something wrong, unable to speak and act freely without restraint.

  Huo Yize leaned in so close to her, Tong Mai felt as if her entire body was being scorched by a raging fire, slowly torturing her.

  "Let go? Hehe..."

  Huo Yize smiled lightly and his smile was stunningly beautiful. His light voice was clearly laced with disdain.

  What is he smiling about? Why does his whole person look so intimidating? It wasn't until now that Tong Mai realized she had messed with the wrong person.

  "That night... you didn't say it like that, I remember... You even begged me... to hold you tight! The passion of that night and the coldness of today are truly worlds apart."

  Slow and deliberate speech, with pauses between words, was an absolute torture for Tong Mai.

  "You...you're talking nonsense. Let me go!" Tong Mai hastily pushed him away, but He Yi Ze instead got closer, tightly adhering to her body, countless ambiguous factors flowing out.

  "Am I talking nonsense? You should know in your heart. Who was it that seduced me first? Made me want her? Just a few days have passed, and you've forgotten already? Or... do you want me to use more practical, quicker methods to jog your memory?"
