Chapter 8: Hard all night.

He saw her crying, looking disheveled, with red eyes, and instinctively reached out to her, “Manman, where are you going so late?”

“I don’t need you to care.”

Su Man turned her face away, her voice stiff, but because of the tears in her voice, it felt like she was being a bit coquettish.

Her state clearly indicated she had been arguing with Wang Li.

Zhou Chengjing wasn’t one to jump to conclusions, but he didn’t let go of her either, “It’s pouring rain outside. Come to my place first.”

Su Man hesitated for a moment, but in the end, unwilling to make more trouble, she didn’t accept his offer, “I don’t…”

However, Zhou Chengjing didn’t plan to give her a chance to refuse. He forcefully brought her back to his house. His newly bought house was on this floor, and he had just installed a fingerprint lock today, which was very convenient.

Su Man was a bit angry and also afraid that this person would behave lewdly again, “Thank you, but I want to go home.”

“But it’s really late, and it’s raining heavily outside. If you go out like this, I’ll be very worried. If you’re afraid I’ll misunderstand, you can treat this place like a hotel, and you can pay if you want.”

In an unprecedented gentlemanly manner, he made a timely joke, “Consider it supporting my business.”

To be honest, when Zhou Chengjing wore his human skin honestly and didn’t show his fangs, his demeanor was polite and appropriate, making it easy for people to develop a favorable impression— 

not just in terms of relationships between men and women.

Su Man was slightly swayed by his words.

In truth, she was quite timid, having been obedient since childhood and hardly ever going out alone after ten o’clock at night, especially on a rainy day like today. Initially only three parts frightened, Zhou Chengjing’s words turned it into nine.

Wang Li didn’t even come out to look for her. Su Man, feeling stubborn towards him, had already ruled out the option of going home.

Taking the opportunity, Zhou Chengjing went to the kitchen, “How about a hot cup of milk to help you sleep?”

As if tacitly agreeing to her ‘staying at the hotel’ tonight, he even asked, “Are you planning to pay in cash or transfer?”

Su Man felt embarrassed, “My phone is out of battery.”

“Then we’ll keep a tab for now.”

Zhou Chengjing was easygoing, handing her the hot milk, “Sweet dreams.”

So Su Man ended up staying there in a daze, locking the door behind her and clutching the key, feeling uneasy.

She thought she would have trouble sleeping, but unexpectedly, she had a peaceful night’s sleep.

The next morning, there was the aroma of food outside.

Zhou Chengjing was in pajamas, arms crossed, sitting at the dining table as if waiting for her. In front of him was a thermal food container from a private kitchen, still sealed.

“Good morning, Manman.”

Out of politeness, Su Man subconsciously responded, “Good morning.”

Zhou Chengjing nodded, stood up, and gestured towards the food, “I lay next to your room yesterday and got hard all night, now I need to catch up on some sleep. Help yourself to breakfast.”
