?”Shhh! Don’t shout,” Zhang Wei whispered urgently, his gaze locking with hers, intensity flickering in his eyes to emphasize the situation.

“!”

“Wh—what are you doing here!?” Cai Wenxi whispered back, her voice tinged with disbelief and a hint of alarm.

She could feel the heat of his bare chest pressed against her through the thin fabric separating them, his proximity unsettling.

His warm breath fanned over her face, jolting her awake and sharpening her senses, enveloping her in a mix of confusion and acute awareness.

“I need your help,” Zhang Wei stated with urgency, his body still pressing slightly against hers, maintaining a delicate but firm hold.

“Huh? My help?” Cai Wenxi, now fully awake, rubbed her eyes vigorously to clear the lingering haze of sleep.

Her vision sharpened as she focused on his earnest expression.

“Yes, your help. I tried the number you gave me, but you weren’t picking up,” Zhang Wei continued, his eyes searching hers for any sign of understanding, his voice smooth and convincing even in the fabrication.

“Uhhh… I must have been asleep,” Cai Wenxi muttered, her mind racing as she processed his sudden appearance and request.

Why does it feel like it has only been a moment since he left and then came back?

Shaking her head slightly to dispel the grogginess, she looked up at him, her expression shifting from confusion to concern. “How can I help you?” she inquired, her voice steadier now.

“My little brother, he’s starving,” Zhang Wei revealed, his tone softening.

“Huh?” Cai Wenxi’s eyebrows shot up in surprise. “You have a little brother?”

Zhang Wei nodded, his expression unusually somber. “Yes, and today a woman tortured him terribly. He was crying because she refused to feed him, and now he’s not only angry but also hungry!”

“What?” Confusion clouded Cai Wenxi’s face, her brain struggling to untangle his barrage of words.

“What are you even talking about!?” she muttered, her tone laced with confusion and irritation as she struggled to push him off and sit upright. 𝑓𝘦𝘦𝔀𝘯𝓋.𝘮

Zhang Wei, undeterred, pressed on urgently, “I mean, help him!” In the same breath, he seized her hand and impulsively guided it inside his pants.

“!!”

“You!?” Cai Wenxi’s eyes widened in shock, her reaction instinctive and swift.

She couldn’t help but flinch and pull her hand away, her slender fingers having briefly wrapped around his hot rod, allowing the heat to seep through her skin.

The bizarre and sudden clarity of the situation finally struck her with full force.

“Are you stupid?” she burst out, staring at him as he chuckled at his own audacious act. “What on earth are you thinking?”

Zhang Wei shot back almost instantly, his tone laced with a sharp edge.

“Exactly, but telling someone stupid, is stupid, is stupidity in itself! Doesn’t that make you stupid as well?” He chuckled, his laughter tinged with irony as he bumped his forehead against hers, still cradling her face in his hands.

“Bam!”

“Wh—” Cai Wenxi’s response was cut short by his unexpected logic and the surprising physical contact, which sent a brief, sharp pang through her forehead.

“See, even if you are a bit slow, you don’t need to worry! I don’t discriminate,” Zhang Wei continued, his voice smooth but dripping with condescension. “It’s actually quite normal for your kind to exhibit some naivety, though yours seems to be particularly pronounced. But as the more magnanimous one in this relationship, I shall generously overlook your shortcomings.”

“…”

Cai Wenxi was left speechless, her eyes wide and unblinking as she absorbed the absurdity of his remarks.

Cai Wenxi was rendered speechless, her eyes staring blankly into his, her mind racing to process his audacious words.

After a tense silence, she managed to compose herself, her voice cold and measured as though she was clenching her teeth to restrain a more physical reaction. “Zhang Wei, didn’t I make it clear already…? We don’t have—any kind of relationship!”

Zhang Wei’s eyes gleamed with a guise of innocence as he shrugged nonchalantly. “I helped you last night, now it’s your turn to return the favor. So, you can either comply, or I might ask the guy next door if he knows any women who are kinder than you and willing to help me.” He concluded his ultimatum with a charming smile that sent waves of frustration through Cai Wenxi.

“Are you threatening me?” she demanded, her voice sharp with rising anger.

Zhang Wei simply shook his head with a smirk. “Nope.”

“…”

“…”

Silence descended between them for a moment.

“I am still tired,” she finally conceded, her voice a murmur as she wilted under his unwavering gaze. ‘It’s only to repay the favor…’ she reassured herself internally, though her heart churned with reluctance.

Zhang Wei winked, his confidence unshaken. “No worries, I’m a self-sufficient man.” With that, he leaned in and gently pressed his lips to her cheek in a soft, lingering kiss.

“!”

Cai Wenxi’s eyes snapped open in shock for a brief second before resignation set in.

However, her discomfort grew when Zhang Wei intensified his affections, his lips transitioning from gentle pecks to more invasive sucking and licking along her cheek.

Her body tensed and she squirmed beneath him, clearly unsettled by the boldness of his actions.

Sensing her unease yet undeterred, Zhang Wei’s smile broadened mischievously, and he shifted his focus, pressing a kiss directly onto her lips.

“!!”

“Mmm~”

“Mmm~”

Cai Wenxi’s eyes fluttered shut for a brief moment, her spine curving gracefully as her body instinctively surrendered to the carnal pleasures it remembered all too well.

As his warm tongue slipped into her mouth, a spark rekindled deep within her, igniting a fire that recalled the memories of the previous night.

The heat spread rapidly, tracing a blazing trail down her neck and lower, coaxing from her lips involuntary groans of pleasure.

Unaware of the moment he had slid off her sleeveless top, time seemed suspended around her.

Her skin tingled, her nipples now a bruised and tender red from his attentions.

She gasped for air as he deftly removed her shorts, his arousal pressing insistently at her entrance.

“Haaa…”

“Haaa…”

As he paused, Cai Wenxi lay breathless, her chest rising and falling rapidly.

His tip gently probed, grazing her sensitive labia.

“Mhnnn~”

Overwhelmed by the sensation, she arched her back further and reached up to clasp his shoulders tightly, anchoring herself to him.

The typically reserved Cai Wenxi was uncharacteristically unrestrained this time around; not only was she battling sleep deprivation, but she was also slightly intoxicated and utterly exhausted, rendering her usual caution and self-control ineffective.
