Chapter 8 - If Life Could Only Be Like The First Time We Met

‎The rain had stopped, and Wen Nuan took the last bus home. All the way, her emotions surged and subsided. Ye Feimo's dominance and strength were both irresistible to her. Just thinking about how she had almost been completely devoured by him again made her face flush with shame.

Wen Nuan's innocent world of twenty years seemed to collapse in an instant.

She had liked Fang Liucheng for so many years, their relationship as close as childhood sweethearts, and the most intimate gesture between them was him kissing her forehead. How different from Ye Feimo's forceful and possessive actions.

That's right, the advertisement!

That damned advertisement.

Wasn't she going to question him about that night? Even if not about that night, she should question him about the advertisement. When did he film that video? It couldn't have been while she was asleep, that would be so perverted.

The level of this person's perversion rose another notch in Wen Nuan's mind.

"Damn it, even knowing this is a crime, I'm helpless. Shouldn't I at least get an advertising fee?" Wen Nuan hit her head against the seat in front in frustration. A handsome high school student in uniform was sitting in front and turned around sharply, giving her a cold and aloof look.

"Little sister, if you're upset, just go home to eat and sleep."

Little sister????

Wen Nuan felt like she was floating even after getting off the bus, completely detached from her soul. Why was she being called "little sister" by someone who looked even younger than her?

As she walked up to her apartment building, she didn't expect to see Fang Liucheng's car parked downstairs. It was a black Rolls-Royce, exuding nobility. This man's every word and action was elegant, even the way he smoked was so handsome.

There were already several cigarette butts at his feet; he had been standing there for a long time.

Under the night sky, smoke curled around him as he slightly tilted his head, looking at the dimly lit window upstairs. From her angle, she could see his perfect profile. Fang Liucheng certainly had what it took to captivate girls.

Elegant, yet with an underlying firmness and a hint of something rebellious.

Wen Nuan followed his gaze, which was fixed on her rented apartment.

Her heart felt as if something had constricted it. Wen Nuan, who had thought she had protected her heart so well, felt a sudden pang of pain. The heart that loved him still clearly felt a sharp ache.

She had given him her first and most beautiful love. Even when she herself was still very confused about it.

In her most beautiful years, all her laughter, ambiguous feelings, and worries had been for him.

If only life could remain as beautiful as the first encounter, how wonderful that would be.

Fang Liucheng, if you couldn't love me from the start, why give me so many years of dreams, only to shatter them in an instant?

He had already noticed her. Against the light, his gaze was obscure, deep and unfathomable. A pang of bitterness went through Wen Nuan's heart. Without even greeting him, ignoring his presence, she directly wanted to go upstairs, but her arm was tightly gripped by Fang Liucheng.

"Wen Nuan!"

"Let go!" Wen Nuan's body trembled as she shook off his hand. She still couldn't face Fang Liucheng normally. "Young Master Fang, this kind of dilapidated little place can't accommodate a great Buddha like you."

"How have you considered my suggestion?"

Wen Nuan sneered. "To be your... mistress?"

"Do you have a better choice?"

"Fang Liucheng, you're truly ridiculous. When I loved you, you didn't want me. Now that you've caused my father to go to jail and left us, mother and daughters, homeless, you put on this benefactor's face. It's disgusting. Could it be that Young Master Fang has really fallen in love with me?"

"Fallen in love with you?" Fang Liucheng's lips curled into a mocking smile, his cold face even more ruthless. "You're not worthy."

Although she knew his intentions and that he was being cruel to her, Wen Nuan was still hurt by these words. However, she put on a smile. Fang Liucheng had left her with nothing; she couldn't even lose her self-respect.

"Young Master Fang, you really have unique taste. You actually want to sleep with a woman who isn't worthy of you. Even a bitch isn't worthy. Why don't you go sleep with a bitch?" Wen Nuan's lips curled in a sneer. Not wanting to say another word to him, she turned and walked away.

Fang Liucheng was enraged. Wen Nuan's nature had always been gentle and refined, like a fresh lily. But since her twentieth birthday, after the sudden upheaval in her family, she seemed to be covered in thorns.

The past Wen Nuan wouldn't have said such infuriating, merciless words that could kill without consequence.

"Wen Nuan, you have no choice, unless you want your father to spend the rest of his life in prison."

Wen Nuan's breath tightened, and anger surged. She raised her hand to slap his face, but Fang Liucheng tightly held her hand. Wen Nuan couldn't break free, her eyes filled with anger. Fang Liucheng's cold voice rang out, "Wen Nuan, you're still more lovable when you're gentle."

"Let go of my sister!" Wen Jing rushed over, holding a long wooden stick. Without hesitation, she swung it at Fang Liucheng. Wen Nuan was startled. Fang Liucheng released her and dodged Wen Jing's stick.

Wen Jing's face was stern as she held the wooden stick, pulling Wen Nuan back, protecting her like a hen protecting her chicks. "Get out!"

This little sister was usually silent and taciturn, but she was very strong-willed.

"Wen Nuan, I'll wait for you to come begging me," Fang Liucheng said before turning and getting into his car, speeding away. Wen Nuan looked utterly exhausted, finally letting out a sigh of relief. Why was it so tiring? Couldn't she even catch her breath?
