Chapter 215 Am I Wronged
Heavens!
This kind of action would be unbearable even to imagine, let alone for Su Rui who was experiencing it firsthand?
In his excitement, he once again felt like his nose was about to bleed!
“Hold it, hold it, don’t argue with a drunk woman.” Su Rui tried hard to control his emotions and asked, “Only what?”
Xue Ruyun’s smile looked bewitchingly seductive no matter how you looked at it: “Only, my dear brother, with your sister like this, do you really have no reaction at all?”
Su Rui didn’t know how to answer.
Xue Ruyun leaned on Su Rui’s shoulder, pressing against his chest muscles, breathing softly into his ear: “Do you have some kind of deficiency in certain areas?”
Hearing these words, Su Rui couldn’t help but feel frantic!
I don’t have any deficiencies, do you want me to prove it to you?
I’ve been holding back from pushing you down right here, yet you dare question my abilities! Really!
Su Rui was absolutely furious!
His hand landed heavily on Xue Ruyun’s buttocks with a loud slap!
Through the thin layers of fabric, Su Rui’s hand felt a clear sensation!
“You vixen, I’ll tell you honestly, I’ll prove it to you sooner or later!”
“When that time comes, you’d better not beg for mercy.” Su Rui thought viciously!
…
The two chatted for a long time, with time flying by in this small space.
“How many men have pursued you?”
“I’ve almost lost count.” Xue Ruyun’s eyes revealed a reminiscent look, though it didn’t seem particularly happy, carrying a certain heaviness.
It seemed that this matter wasn’t something she found particularly joyful or prideful.
“It’s also because of this that I’ve witnessed much of the darkness and ugliness in the world.” Xue Ruyun said self-mockingly: “Once, a fairly well-known director told me he could give me an opportunity for fame, with the condition that I become his mistress.”
“At that time, it was when I needed money the most, and the famous director’s words were undeniably very tempting.”
Su Rui listened quietly without interrupting. He knew that Xue Ruyun had finally found a good listener and was taking advantage of the alcohol to pour out her heart. He didn’t want to interrupt, nor could he.
At this point, Xue Ruyun stopped: “Why don’t you ask about what happened next?”
Su Rui could only spread his hands: “Even if I don’t ask, you’ll definitely tell me anyway, and I believe you certainly didn’t accept that director’s proposal.”
However, Xue Ruyun shook her head, with a bitter smile in her eyes.
Su Rui’s heart skipped a beat.
If Xue Ruyun had agreed, Su Rui could understand. After all, a girl who had suffered so much hardship from childhood to adulthood, facing such a request would be like a drowning person grabbing a lifeline. In that situation, making such a choice wouldn’t be surprising.
At life’s critical turning points, false pride is the least advisable. How to struggle to survive is the most crucial question.
“I agreed.” Xue Ruyun finally said these four words, which made Su Rui feel a tightness in his chest and pain in his heart.
He wouldn’t despise Xue Ruyun for this, but he felt sorry for this woman.
“Do you think I’m dirty? Do you not want to have contact with me anymore?”
Su Rui shook his head: “I absolutely don’t have any thoughts like that. I just feel a bit heartbroken.”
“Heartbroken about what?” The corner of Xue Ruyun’s mouth pulled into a slight smile, as if Su Rui’s answer made her feel comforted.
He was feeling sorry for her?
Su Rui said straightforwardly: “Heartbroken that a good cabbage was rooted by a pig.”
Su Rui’s words undoubtedly lightened the atmosphere, and even Xue Ruyun couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“You’ve ruined the mood.” Xue Ruyun hit Su Rui once: “I’ve never been rooted by a pig.”
Su Rui widened his eyes and said: “But you just said…”
“I tricked him to the hotel, told him to take a shower and wait for me, then I gave his room number to his wife.”
Su Rui almost laughed out loud.
After learning that Xue Ruyun hadn’t been subjected to the director’s casting couch, his mood lightened considerably. This had nothing to do with the pathological complex men have, but was purely feeling sorry for what she had gone through.
“Then what happened?”
“When his wife went to the hotel, he thought it was me and ran over naked, only to be beaten badly by his wife. After that, they got divorced.” Xue Ruyun said: “Their divorce should be credited to me, otherwise people outside the industry would still think he was a model husband.”
Su Rui nodded: “The chaos in that circle is very understandable.”
In Su Rui’s view, for actors to perform well, they must invest real emotions. In a drama, male and female actors spend several months together, experiencing all the joys and sorrows of life through their roles. Even if they deliberately control their feelings, they eventually lose control. The spark between them is only too natural.
As a director, one has even more inherent advantages in this regard.
Xue Ruyun clinked glasses with Su Rui again, and they both drank up.
“Later, I met many men. They either wanted to seduce me or keep me as a mistress. Every one of them looked at me with eyes full of desire.”
Xue Ruyun looked at Su Rui, her gaze direct and unwavering, continuing: “Only you, when you’re with me, although your words and actions are somewhat frivolous, I can see that your eyes don’t contain any desire. This is different from all other men.”
Su Rui rubbed his nose, seemingly dissatisfied with Xue Ruyun’s assessment: “Well, am I really that frivolous?”
Xue Ruyun glanced at him: “If you weren’t frivolous, would you slap a woman’s buttocks?”
Su Rui immediately felt he had nothing to say.
“If you leave, who will manage the Max Bar?”
Max Bar could completely be called Xue Ruyun’s headquarters, the base of her rise, and more importantly, the foothold for her revenge against the Xue family. This most fundamental place absolutely could not be lost; it could continuously provide support for Xue Ruyun’s actions.
“I already have a very suitable candidate. She was brought into the business by me and was previously the deputy manager of my bar. I’m very confident leaving this place in her hands,” Xue Ruyun said.
“I have another idea,” Su Rui said. “I’ll have Li Yang transfer all the bars under Zhang Hao to your name. With these bars, you can form a chain company. The power of a group is always much greater than your intimidation alone.”
Xue Ruyun, hearing this, was obviously tempted, but she knew that if she did this, she would owe Su Rui even more—something she couldn’t repay in several lifetimes.
“You’re forcing your sister to offer herself to you,” Xue Ruyun sighed, leaning on Su Rui’s shoulder, then tightly wrapping her arms around his neck.
This tight embrace contained who knows how many complex emotions.
Generally speaking, when Su Rui was present, beautiful scenes never lasted too long. Xue Ruyun was embracing him, and by all rights, he should be enjoying it, but Su Rui began rolling his eyes…
“Whew, vixen, you’re too big, almost suffocated me.” Su Rui struggled to free his face from between the two mountains, taking a long breath, actually feeling like he had escaped death.
…
On this night of farewell, the two of them drank a full four bottles of liquor.
Xue Ruyun still leaned on Su Rui’s shoulder, eyes closed, mumbling something incoherently. Su Rui couldn’t even make out what she was saying.
The two had maintained this ambiguous posture all evening.
Su Rui’s alcohol tolerance was quite strong, and coupled with his strong physique, his head was still relatively clear and hadn’t been too heavily affected by the alcohol.
He patted Xue Ruyun’s buttocks and said: “Vixen, it’s almost midnight, I should take you home.”
But Xue Ruyun continued to mumble to herself, saying things no one could understand.
With no other choice, Su Rui could only call out: “Waiter, check please.”
A female server who looked only about seventeen walked in, and upon seeing Su Rui and Xue Ruyun’s posture, immediately grinned mischievously and said: “Brother, you’re so lucky.”
Su Rui’s face darkened.
“I didn’t do anything, yet this woman has been riding me all night. Isn’t that unfair?” Su Rui, truly upset, gave Xue Ruyun another slap on a certain area.
Since he had been drinking, Su Rui didn’t drive again but called for a designated driver. His alcohol tolerance was good, and driving now wouldn’t be a problem, but that didn’t mean the police wouldn’t give him trouble.
After parking the car, Xue Ruyun was already asleep. Su Rui gently called her name a couple of times, but she showed no signs of waking up.
With no choice, Su Rui had to drag Xue Ruyun out of the car, though this way, since she was wearing a skirt, it was difficult to avoid exposure.
Su Rui just glanced once, felt his heart beating a bit fast, and decisively averted his gaze, directly picking her up in a princess carry, holding this body that drove countless men crazy in his arms!
Finally arriving at Xue Ruyun’s front door, Su Rui found the key in her bag, opened the door, and placed her on the bed.
Looking at the beauty lying on the bed, still magnificent from any angle, Su Rui felt somewhat parched. Well, actually he had been parched all evening. Facing this bewitching woman, he had been in this state of thirst for several hours straight.
“So thirsty… so thirsty… Where… where am I?”
Xue Ruyun suddenly mumbled groggily. She struggled to open her eyes, trying to prop herself up.
“Stay still, I’ll get it.”
Su Rui poured hot water, tested the temperature, then sat down beside Xue Ruyun, supporting her against himself.
Seeing her condition, it was obvious she couldn’t independently perform the simple act of drinking water, so Su Rui had to help her.
According to the typical novel plot development, at this point Xue Ruyun should accidentally knock over the cup, then the warm water would soak her clothes, and Su Rui would be forced to change her clothes, but in doing so, he would see things he shouldn’t see, and then what happens next… use your imagination.
But that’s a novel scenario, and there’s always a bit of difference from real life.
