Shi Mengwan’s body was leaning against the door. Wan Xianyang was outside, and Zhan Haoze was inside.
She was a little confused. Her only thought was that she couldn’t let these two meet.
She turned around and looked at Zhan Haoze’s approaching body. She was a little nervous.
“What… What do you want?”
After asking this question, Shi Mengwan realized how stupid her question was. She felt like biting her tongue off.
“Zhan Haoze, go to the bathroom and hide for a while.”
Zhan Haoze narrowed his eyes and his body not moving at all, he looked at her.
“Zhan Haoze.”
There was a knock on the door again. Shi Mengwan’s eyes were somewhat anxious. She started to reach out to push him. However, considering that he was injured, she didn’t use too much strength.
Zhan Haoze suddenly grabbed her hand and pulled her into his embrace. He lowered his head and kissed her lips heavily.
Shi Mengwan sucked in a breath of cold air, but he took the opportunity to forcefully plunder her.
It seemed like he hadn’t kissed her like this for a long time. Zhan Haoze was moved and couldn’t restrain himself.
His kiss had always been irresistible to her. It didn’t take long before she was completely immersed in his kiss.
His hands wrapped around the back of her waist and slowly moved upwards..
There were a few knocks on the door, and Shi Mengwan recovered from Zhan Haoze’s kiss.
She pushed hard, and Zhan Haoze took two steps back. Shi Mengwan stood and adjusted her breathing. “Zhan Haoze, if you’re planning to let others know that you’re with me now, you can continue.”
Zhan Haoze didn’t continue. He looked deeply at Shi Mengwan, then finally nodded, turning around, and entered the bathroom.
Shi Mengwan breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Zhan Haoze would continue regardless. After all, in this foreign country, not many people knew them.
Taking a deep breath, she turned around to open the door. Wan Xianyang, who was outside the door, smiled when he saw her. He handed a bouquet of flowers to her with a faint smile on his face.
“Congratulations.”
“You –” Shi Mengwan looked at the bouquet of flowers, but she wasn’t in a hurry to receive it. Indicating for her to accept the flowers, Wan Xianyang took a step forward.
“What? You passed the semi-finals and entered the finals. Isn’t it worth being happy about?”
“Thank you.” Shi Mengwan took the flowers. Wan Xianyang looked at her face and his gaze fell on her body. Her clothes were slightly messy, and one wouldn’t be able to tell if one didn’t look carefully.
His gaze moved up to the other party’s lips. Wan Xianyang narrowed his eyes slightly. It only lasted for an instant before a smile appeared on his face.
“Why? Aren’t you going to invite me in?”
It wasn’t very convenient. Shi Mengwan looked at the bouquet of flowers in her hand but didn’t refuse.
“Please come in.”
“You don’t have to be so polite.”
Wan Xianyang entered the door and his gaze quickly swept across the room. He didn’t see anyone.
Finally, he looked in the direction of the bathroom and didn’t make any unnecessary movements. Instead, he sat down on the sofa in the room.
“Oh right, you’ve passed the semi-finals. The next round should be the finals, right? I heard that the two of you are going to work alone in isolation?”
“You even know about that?” Shi Mengwan was indeed a little surprised.
“I have a friend on the organizing committee, so I have to ask one more question.”Wan Xianyang looked at her with a cautious expression. “You won’t be angry, right?”
“No.” This competition wasn’t a secret. In order to ensure its fairness, the officials had already announced the procedure.
“Are you going there in the afternoon? Why don’t I send you there?”
“No need.” Shi Mengwan rejected his offer without thinking. “I’ve brought my assistant here. She has arranged a car. When the time comes, the few of us will go together.”
“Alright then.” Wan Xianyang looked at her. “How many days are you going to be there? I’ll come to pick you up and celebrate for you. Is that alright?”
“I don’t know what the results will be yet. It’s too early to plan for a celebration.”
In such a competition with so many experts, Shi Mengwan didn’t dare to think that she could get into the top three. She was already very happy to be able to enter the semi-finals.
“I have confidence in you. You will definitely get a very good ranking.”Wan Xianyang was much more confident in her. “You might even get first place.”
“Don’t joke around.”
Shi Mengwan looked at the list of people who came to participate in this competition, especially those who were in the top ten. She even paid attention to it today. Masters wouldn’t come to such a competition, but there were many rookies with good results.
She just had a small studio. It was already her luck to be able to enter the top ten.
“Don’t think like that. In my heart, you’re number one.”
Wan Xianyang’s words were equivalent to sweet talk. Shi Mengwan didn’t respond. “Do you have anything else?”
“Are you ordering me to leave?”
“No, I still have to pack my things. Xiao Ji and the others will come to look for me later.”
“Then you’re still chasing me away.”
“Wan Xianyang…”
“Alright, I’m leaving, alright?”
Wan Xianyang stood up as he spoke. He paused when he passed Shi Mengwan. “I won’t disturb you if you need to pack your things. However, I still hope to have the opportunity to celebrate with you.”
“Thank you.”
Wan Xianyang continued to walk out. When he walked past the bathroom door, he glanced over there, as if he didn’t mean to.
Shi Mengwan’s heart was in a knot. She took a few steps forward and opened the door first.
Wan Xianyang had already walked to the door. When he saw her actions, he smiled helplessly. “You really can’t wait to chase me away. I’m really hurt by your actions.”
Shi Mengwan froze, but Wan Xianyang moved closer at this moment. “In order to calm my hurt heart, why don’t you give me a comforting kiss?”
Shi Mengwan was shocked by his actions, but at this moment, Wan Xianyang suddenly smiled. “Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Go for it. Have a good competition. I wish you a good ranking.”
“Okay. Thank you.”
Shi Mengwan’s expression wasn’t as casual as before. Even if Wan Xianyang had expressed his intention to leave, her eyes were still somewhat guarded.
That look made Wan Xianyang sigh in his heart. This bestie of his bestie really wasn’t easy to get close to.
However —
When he stepped out of the room, he once again unintentionally looked in the direction of the bathroom. Why did he feel that the door seemed to have moved just now?
However, before he could see clearly, Shi Mengwan had already quickly closed the door.
After Wan Xianyang left, Shi Mengwan breathed a sigh of relief. However, when she turned around, she saw Zhan Haoze coming out of the bathroom.
He stood there with a cold face and looked at her expressionlessly.
Shi Mengwan felt a sense of guilt when he looked at her, but it was only for a moment and she didn’t want to bother with him anymore.
Why? He could get engaged to another woman and still be intimate with her. She only had one suitor and she felt guilty?
She passed Zhan Haoze and was about to continue packing when Zhan Haoze grabbed her arm.
He turned her around and pressed her against the wall behind her.
“Zhan Haoze –”
She cried out. Zhan Haoze didn’t give her the chance to speak again. He lowered his head and kissed her. It was a fierce and rough kiss.
Shi Mengwan’s lips were hurting from being crushed by him. She pushed him, but he didn’t move at all.
She was anxious and wanting to attack his wound, she placed her hand on his abdomen, but when she really touched that area, she put her hand down again.
This pause undoubtedly gave Zhan Haoze another chance. Allowing her to be in the same position as him, he easily lifted her body up.
Biting at the two pieces of soft flesh, he sealed her lips again.
Shi Mengwan felt the pain and turned around to bite him. She used even more strength than Zhan Haoze, biting down just like that. Moreover, it was with such force that his lips were bitten open by her.
Both of them tasted the taste of blood at the same time.
The scene in front of them was very similar. Shi Mengwan thought of the last time she went on a blind date with Xiao Qi, and Zhan Haoze was also like this.
Her heart was filled with hatred, and she pushed him forcefully without caring about anything else. Zhan Haoze’s wound on his abdomen was pushed by her. He winced in pain and took a step back.
Shi Mengwan used this opportunity to retreat from his embrace and stand on the other side.
Her chest rose and fell violently, and her lips were still stained with blood. Her hair was a little messy, and the front of her clothes was more than half slanted.
She looked like she was in a miserable state, but she still appeared beautiful. Zhan Haoze narrowed his eyes and instinctively took a step forward.
Shi Mengwan, on the other hand, took a step back. She looked at the person in front of her with a burning gaze. “Zhan Haoze, you can’t do this every time.”
Her heart was beating a little fast. She bit her lip, and the expression on her face carried a hint of blame and bitterness at the same time.
“I’m your girlfriend, right? If not, what right do you have to treat me like this?”
“If I’m not your girlfriend, what right do you have to treat me like this?”
She closed her eyes and forced herself not to admit defeat in front of Zhan Haoze. “Zhan Haoze, can you show me some respect? Or in your heart, I’m just that kind of frivolous woman. You can do whatever you want?”
Her rather righteous words made Zhan Haoze a little stunned, but Shi Mengwan didn’t want to bother with him anymore.
“Zhan Haoze, I’m going to the organizing committee to prepare the venue for the competition this afternoon. I won’t be here for the next few days. See yourself out.”
She turned around to pack her luggage, but stopped after taking two steps.
“Zhan Haoze, I think you actually don’t like me that much, right? It’s just a possessive desire. If it’s not me, it can be another woman. To you, there’s no difference.”
To him, she was just an ornament in his life.
But to her, he was everything.
A relationship that didn’t treat her well was destined to put her at a disadvantage. Her back looked lonely. This side of her was rarely seen.
