Yu Xue suddenly remembered that he was the man she had been chatting with in the lounge just moments ago.
At this thought, her expression instantly turned cold, and her tone became stiff and impolite. "Are you a friend of Yu Lingwei?"
"That's right."
"Then we are not friends." Yu Xue lifted her foot, preparing to leave, wanting nothing more than to distance herself from this troublemaker.
However, the man's tall figure blocked her path like a wall.
He leaned down, his eyes almost level with hers, his warm breath gently brushing against her cheek as he softly asked, "Are you crying?"
Seeing the glimmer of tears in the corners of her eyes, a faint sense of reluctance quietly arose in Ling Yunran's heart, like a seed taking root and sprouting within him.
His burning gaze felt like flames, almost scorching her skin. Yu Xue hurriedly turned her face away and tried to maintain a cold voice. "What does it have to do with you? Aren't you afraid Yu Lingwei will get jealous?"
"You misunderstand; I'm not..."
"Get away!"
"Regardless of whether you are or not, I don't want anything to do with you. Move aside!" Yu Xue's voice carried a hint of anger and helplessness.
Ling Yunran raised an eyebrow slightly, his eyes revealing a trace of provocation. "Is this how you treat everyone who cares about you?"
A surge of inexplicable anger welled up within Ling Yunran. He had come to find her out of goodwill, yet she had called out someone else's name, which displeased him.
Yu Xue lowered her gaze to her toes, remaining silent like a silent iceberg.
Seeing this, Ling Yunran leaned in closer, his nose nearly touching hers. Yu Xue could even catch the unfamiliar yet unique scent emanating from him. In that moment, her heart seemed to skip a beat, as if the calm surface of a lake had been disturbed by a stone.
"Why are you silent again?" His voice grew deeper, filled with dangerous temptation, like a mysterious incantation echoing through the night sky.
Yu Xue rolled her eyes inwardly, thinking to herself: Is this gentleman a walking encyclopedia?
Seeing the impatience on Yu Xue's face, Ling Yunran couldn't help but chuckle. His fingers gently brushed against her soft cheek, his voice becoming increasingly seductive. "Since you’re unwilling to speak, don’t blame me for forcing you..."
"Ah! Mmm—"
Before Yu Xue could finish her startled exclamation, another mouth firmly sealed hers.
Yu Xue was taken aback and pushed against him with all her might. However, the strength of his body was overwhelming; her efforts felt like mere tickles to him, utterly futile.
In her desperation, she bit down hard.
A faint metallic taste filled her mouth, yet this only ignited Ling Yunran's deeper desire.
The kiss gradually transformed from an initial scare into an intoxicating entanglement. It wasn't until footsteps approached from behind that Ling Yunran seemed to awaken from a dream and attempted to pull away.
Yu Xue, quick to notice the incoming person, saw a glimmer of something unusual in her eyes. She played along with the moment and pulled his head down again, pressing her lush lips tightly against his thin ones.
Ling Yunran was stunned until he heard Yu Lingwei's familiar scream from behind: "Ah— What are you two doing?!"
Damn it! He cursed inwardly, realizing he had fallen into a trap! A hint of frustration and helplessness crossed his face.
A resounding slap landed harshly on Yu Xue's face, leaving five clear red marks on her fair cheek, resembling blooming red plums—striking and shocking.
Seeing Yu Xue being hit, Ling Yunran's brows furrowed deeply, his expression darkening as if a storm were about to break.
Although Yu Xue's previous schemes had displeased him, witnessing her being struck stirred an inexplicable pang of bitterness and compassion within him.
"You shameless wretch! You've brought disgrace upon the Yu Family!"
Yu Zhengtian shouted furiously, his voice sharp and piercing due to his anger, his fingers trembling with rage.
Yu Lingwei stood by, feigning concern, yet the corners of her mouth curled up slightly as she cast a mocking glance at Yu Xue, her eyes brimming with delight and derision.
"Hah, the face of the Yu Family? Did you ever consider me your daughter?" Yu Xue gently wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her gaze icy, like stars in a cold night sky, as she coldly asked.
"What nonsense are you talking?!" Yu Zhengtian's eyes widened, flames of anger burning within them, resembling an enraged lion.
"You never liked me; you despise my very existence, don't you?" Yu Xue's voice was calm and resolute, yet it could not conceal the sadness and despair lurking beneath, like dark currents beneath a tranquil lake.
"Sister, what are you saying? Dad cares so much for us!" Yu Lingwei exclaimed in feigned surprise, her tone reproachful. However, the insincerity of her act could not mask the triumph gleaming in her eyes.
Yu Xue shot her a glance and raised her hand to touch her swollen left cheek, a sneer tugging at her lips. "He cares for you, but I... have never felt it!"
"You—" Yu Xue's composed demeanor was like a sharp blade, piercing straight into Yu Zhengtian's heart, igniting his fury even more.
In a fit of rage, he couldn't help but raise his hand again, the sound of rushing wind accompanying his slap aimed at Yu Xue's face.
Yu Xue closed her eyes, bracing herself for the impending pain. In her heart, she silently vowed to leave the Yu Family tonight and never return, even if it meant death.
This family had never given her an ounce of warmth; only endless indifference and harm.
Smack—A crisp sound echoed through the air, yet the anticipated pain did not come.
