783 Restless (1/2)
The guest bedroom was small and only had a standard double bed. It had an old-style feeling but also very feminine with all the floral prints and patterns on the decorations.
”My mother sleeps here when she visits me,” Long Jinjing explained. ”I'm sorry but the bed will be too small for you. You'll just have to make do with it tonight.”
”It's fine,” Lu Zihao said.
She nodded. ”Come, I'll show you the bathroom.”
He followed her and was pleasantly surprised that the bathroom was bigger than he expected. It also smelled very nice, reminding him of the bathrooms at Dragon Palace Home #10. Then he realized why. Orchidia Beauty products were organized in a neat row on the shelves.
Long Jinjing handed him a new, unopened toothbrush. ”Would you like to shower?”
He raised an eyebrow at her question but she didn't see it because she was busy taking a clean towel for him. ”I don't have any men's clothes here that I can lend you but we can machine wash and dry your clothes. It'll only take about an hour.”
”No need.”
”Okay. I'll leave you now, then.”
He nodded.
”Good night, Mr. Lu.”
”Good night, Miss Long.”
He watched as she left. He closed the door and locked himself inside the bathroom. His casual and calm expression morphed into something feral. The feminine scent of the woman who just left lingered in the air. He was able to distinguish it from the pleasant blend of scents from the Orchidia Beauty products in the bathroom.
His nostrils flared as Long Jinjing's lingering feminine scent shot straight down his groin and instantly made him hard. The violent energy and raging bloodlust boiled inside him with more intensity than ever. He failed to relieve the fierce residual energy inside him earlier and now it was bombarding at his willpower with vengeance.
He glared at his reflection. All his muscles tensed as he forced himself to control his lust.
The current situation was very bad. Severe. With the residual violent energy raging inside him, he was akin to a starving beast right now. He needed something to release it and Long Jinjing was looking more and more appealing in his eyes.
She was like a lily in full bloom—graceful and elegant yet had an underlying strength despite her delicate appearance. He could sense that she would be able to take him.
”Fuck.”
He needed to think about something else or he would be creating a mess inside the woman's bathroom. [This novel is a contracted work with W e b n o v e l . c o m (remove spaces).

What made him agree to her invitation to stay for the night? He knew about his current volatile condition. It was a very bad idea to stay alone with an attractive woman with just a wall separating their rooms.
