The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man

A thought struck Xu Wenwan, and she grew excited. ’Does Mr. Jiu want more facial soap?’

’But if he just wanted soap, he wouldn’t need to see me in person!’

Xu Wenwan wanted to fish for information, but there was no way Liu Zi would talk.

’If he told Xu Wenwan that something was wrong with her facial soap, she’d be too scared to go.’

’And how would he explain that to Mr. Jiu?’

He had already been beaten by Mr. Jiu over this matter.

Liu Zi glanced at Xu Wenwan’s neckline again before speaking slowly. ”As for why Mr. Jiu wants to see you, he’ll have to tell you himself. You’ll find out when you get there. I’m just the messenger.”

After saying his piece, Liu Zi left, though somewhat reluctantly.

’That figure... even if he couldn’t touch her, just looking was a thrill!’

’Too bad she’s already married. That guy, Yun Hao, is one lucky bastard.’

After Liu Zi returned, he told Mr. Jiu everything he had learned: that Xu Wenwan and Yun Hao were married, as well as their identities.

Mr. Jiu hadn’t expected that the woman he’d been longing for was already married. He was instantly dejected.

’So much for being the first. It’s gone, just like that.’

’He had wanted to be the one to do it himself.’

’Back then, he’d been beaten so badly by Leng Yuan that the spirit was willing, but the flesh was weak. Now that he’d recovered, it was too late. If he had known, he would have summoned Xu Wenwan a couple of days ago.’

’That girl... she was so alluring, just like one of those vixens on TV. A single glance was enough to make his heart itch with desire.’

An hour after Liu Zi left, Xu Wenwan told Yun Hao that she needed to go out.

She couldn’t leave with Liu Zi; it would start gossip, and she was afraid people would recognize him.

After all, everyone who sold goods at the black market had seen Liu Zi before.

Yun Hao frowned. He had a vague feeling that things weren’t as the man claimed. Xu Wenwan didn’t seem like the type to go around saving people, and that Liu Zi certainly didn’t look like a good person.

”You’d be wise to associate less with people like that, lest you get burned.”

Xu Wenwan paid him no mind.

”Yun Hao, you have no right to tell me what to do. Don’t forget what I said on our wedding night! We’re going to get divorced sooner or later anyway. What I do is none of your business.”

Giving him a look reserved for the utterly clueless, Xu Wenwan grabbed her things and left.

Yun Hao’s expression darkened completely at her words. He watched her leave without saying another word.

When Xu Wenwan arrived at Mr. Jiu’s place and walked inside, the first thing she saw was a group of men with cigarettes dangling from their lips, crowded around a table playing cards, shouting and hollering.

The moment Xu Wenwan entered, all eyes snapped to her.

Liu Zi had told them quite a bit when he returned, and now their gazes on Xu Wenwan were naked and brazen.

Xu Wenwan frowned.

She enjoyed being pursued and admired, but she hated being looked at with such lewd gazes. It made her extremely uncomfortable.

”Where’s Mr. Jiu?”

”Mr. Jiu’s in the back. Go on in.”

One of the men replied flippantly. Although he coveted Xu Wenwan, he knew she was the one Mr. Jiu had his eye on. He wouldn’t dare try to steal someone from his boss.

Xu Wenwan walked straight toward the inner room. The men outside only retracted their gazes once she had disappeared, smirking to themselves.

”Wanna bet how long she’ll be in there? I say one hour.”

”An hour? That’s a bit long. I’ll bet half.”

”You guys are vicious. Twenty-five minutes.”

”One dollar minimum bet. Ante up, quick.”

Everyone immediately scrambled to put down their money.

This wasn’t the first time they’d made such a bet. While Mr. Jiu certainly loved beautiful women, after so many years and so many of them, his stamina wasn’t what it used to be.

But Xu Wenwan was exceptionally alluring, so maybe he’d last a bit longer this time.

Xu Wenwan, still oblivious to what was happening outside, entered the room with an innocent expression. She saw Mr. Jiu sitting in a chair beside a table. When he saw her, he beckoned her over.
