The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1326: Chapter 512: Reflex_3

This made her consciousness begin to show signs of blurring. She didn’t know how many times she had bitten her own tongue to endure until now.

”Zhou Wang, it’s you... Hurry, let me go!”

Qu Peining had no choice but to speak first. Her low voice came from the bed, with a peculiar tone, carrying an indescribable hoarseness.

”You haven’t collapsed yet?”

Zhou Wang responded in surprise, ”You’re stronger than I imagined...”

”Zhou Wang!”

Upon confirming that it was indeed Zhou Wang, Qu Peining’s body trembled slightly, her limbs showing signs of struggle, ”Do you... do you know what you’re doing right now? Let me go... or else, I swear you will regret this for the rest of your life...”

”So even in this situation, you’re still thinking of threatening me?”

Zhou Wang frowned slightly, speaking blandly, ”Sister, please understand the situation. If you don’t want to talk to me properly, then I’ll come back tomorrow.”

”Wait, wait a minute!”

Upon hearing that she would have to endure another day of torment, Qu Peining became anxious, her voice involuntarily sharpening, ”What... what do you actually want?”

Click!

Zhou Wang turned on the main bedroom light. The sudden brightness made Qu Peining instinctively close her eyes. Immediately, he heard footsteps, followed by the sound of the bed sinking. When she looked up from her disheveled hair, she saw Zhou Wang already sitting by the bed, right in front of her.

Clearly, Zhou Wang only dared to get so close after confirming there was no danger.

Only then did Zhou Wang clearly see Qu Peining’s face. Her complexion was strange, with an unusual flush beneath the pallor, and her forehead still faintly glistened with traces of sweat.

It was evident that her real condition wasn’t as good as it appeared.

Meeting Qu Peining’s gaze that was filled with hidden resentment and inexplicable glimmers of confusion, Zhou Wang said earnestly, ”I can let you go and even bring you food right away, but can you promise not to pursue anything from the past and not to trouble me afterward?”

”I...”

Qu Peining originally wanted to speak some harsh words, but for some reason, she held back and merely nodded slightly, ”I can!”

”Can you also stay away from Senior Sister and not meddle in matters between us?”

”...Okay!”

Now it was Zhou Wang’s turn to feel puzzled and uncertain, for he always thought Qu Peining was not so easy to talk to, and her agreement seemed too straightforward.

”Can, is it enough now... You, I’ve agreed to everything you said. Can you... can you let me go now?”

While Zhou Wang was still in a daze, Qu Peining spoke once more, her tone noticeably hurried, and the strange flush on her face continued to spread, her toes curling even more intensely.

But Zhou Wang, lost in thought, didn’t notice these details, merely waving a hand, ”Don’t rush, let me think it over.”

”What else is there to, to think about... I’ve already agreed...”

Qu Peining was becoming increasingly anxious.

Zhou Wang ignored her, but suddenly felt a dry throat, possibly because he drank too much cola. Seeing there was still water in the kettle on the bedside table, he instinctively reached over to grab it, also picking up a glass to pour himself some water.

However, upon noticing Zhou Wang’s actions, a look of terror appeared on Qu Peining’s delicate face.

”No, don’t...”

But it was too late. When the kettle tilted and the ”gurgling” sound of water filled the glass, Qu Peining’s body stiffened instantly, her eyes widening.

The next moment, as if by reflex, some overwhelming impulse finally shattered the tension she had been holding. With a low moan of ”Mmm,” her body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Zhou Wang, smelling something, looked down in shock, immediately exclaiming, ”Damn!”
