Zuo Kai stepped out and said, "Stop tying her up. Get me some food."
"Zuo Ye, are you interested in that girl? The president ordered us to keep a close eye on her," someone replied.
"Cut the nonsense. I'll handle whatever comes up; you don't need to worry about it." With that, Zuo Kai silenced any further objections. He was Lu Tianyang's trusted aide, and everyone followed his lead.
Zuo Kai pondered for a moment. The president was currently drunk and had just divorced Lady; how could he be in a good mood? He lit a cigarette, realizing that keeping Long Shaoxue locked up here wasn’t a solution.
Soon, someone brought in food. After a long night of chaos, he was hungry himself. He entered the room with a plate of food. "Have you eaten? You should at least have something."
Long Shaoxue shook her head. "I can't eat. My head hurts."
"Just eat a little with me. I heard you haven't eaten anything all day." Zuo Kai helped her sit up. "Stay here quietly for the next few days. I'll talk to the president about letting you go. Don't blame him for taking it out on you; your brother has gone too far."
"Will you really help me?" Long Shaoxue asked, unsure if she could trust him. Without his assistance, she knew she couldn't escape from here.
"Don't you trust me?" Zuo Kai shot her an exasperated look as he adjusted her position.
"No, I do trust you," Long Shaoxue quickly clarified, sensing his irritation. For some reason, she felt she could believe him.
"Alright then, eat something." Zuo Kai was starving and devoured his food like a wolf. Long Shaoxue's headache made her appetite nonexistent; she merely nibbled alongside him.
Unable to hold back, Long Shaoxue asked, "Are you really that hungry?"
"Yeah, there's a lot going on, especially with you. Don’t make things harder for me; let me save some energy." Zuo Kai playfully tapped her head with his chopsticks. Long Shaoxue frowned and retorted, "You try being locked up for days and see how you feel! You guys are nothing but bullies."
"And yet you still complain," Zuo Kai teased.
Long Shaoxue sniffled, feeling congested. Zuo Kai thought she might cry again and said, "A young lady is still a young lady; can’t say anything without provoking tears."
“Who cried? My nose feels uncomfortable, and my head hurts.” Long Shaoxue was still running a fever, and being able to speak to him like this was already a struggle.
“Then go lie down and rest. Drink some soup and sleep. You need to eat on time later; if you starve yourself, it will only make you feel worse.”
“Oh.” Long Shaoxue complied this time, no longer throwing a tantrum; whatever Zuo Kai said, she would follow.
Zuo Kai tidied up his things and noticed she had already fallen asleep. After receiving an injection, the medicine was starting to take effect, and she was sweating all over.
When Zuo Kai returned, he saw her clothes were soaked, her hair drenched in sweat. Unable to ignore the situation, he called the doctor.
“Zuo Ye, this is normal; sweating is good. Just remember to change her clothes; otherwise, she might catch a cold again, and that would be bad.”
After hanging up the phone, Zuo Kai thought about how there wasn’t even a woman around here. He absolutely wouldn’t let anyone from outside come in to change her clothes.
He rummaged through the closet and found a set of women’s clothing that should have been prepared for Lady by the president.
Zuo Kai turned off the lights and gently helped her sit up. “Long Shaoxue, wake up. Can you change your clothes by yourself? Your clothes are all wet; the doctor said you need to change.”
Long Shaoxue was dazed, her head heavy, and her eyelids felt too heavy to open.
With no other choice, Zuo Kai reached out to unbutton her shirt. “I’m going to help you change your clothes; it’s not that I want to take advantage of you. It’s just that you can’t do it yourself.”
He quickly removed her outer clothing and wrapped her in a blanket, trying his best not to touch her. However, when he felt the garment closest to her skin, he realized it was soaked in sweat. He felt a bit frustrated—how was he supposed to deal with this?
After some effort, he finally managed to unfasten the hidden buttons and roughly put a new shirt on her. The pants were even easier; with a tug, they came right off.
Zuo Kai covered her with the blanket and stayed in the room without leaving.
In the middle of the night, Long Shaoxue woke up and realized someone had changed her clothes. Moreover, she wasn’t wearing any underwear at all. A sharp scream echoed through the villa, and Zuo Kai rushed in at the sound.
She turned on the light, anxiously asking, "What happened? What's going on?"
Long Shaoxue clutched her chest tightly, exclaiming, "Someone changed my clothes!"
Zuo Kai walked over and sat down beside her. "I did. Your clothes were all wet. I asked the doctor, and he said it's normal, but you need to change out of wet clothes."
"You shameless jerk! How could you take off my clothes?" Long Shaoxue's face flushed when she heard it was Zuo Kai who had changed her.
"I turned off the light to change you; I didn't see anything. Now that your fever has gone down, take this medicine too, just to be safe," Zuo Kai said, ignoring her protests as he poured her a glass of water.
Long Shaoxue turned her head away. "I won't take it! You... you bastard! Who gave you the right to change my clothes?"
"I already said I didn't see anything. Besides, with that figure of yours, who would even want to look?" Zuo Kai replied, feeling a bit guilty. Long Shaoxue had a great body, and he had seen more than he intended.
"What? Is my figure not good enough?" Long Shaoxue exclaimed, looking down in agitation. At that moment, Zuo Kai had hastily thrown something on her without properly buttoning it up, and now two buttons had come undone, revealing a beautiful sight that made him swallow hard.
"Take your medicine and go to sleep. Why are you talking so much? If I hadn't changed you, would you have wanted someone else outside to do it?" Zuo Kai said with a fierce expression. But Long Shaoxue was still a girl; being looked at like this made her feel very upset.
"But you can't just take off my clothes! How am I supposed to face people now?" Long Shaoxue shouted angrily as she swatted his hand away, refusing to take the medicine.
"Well, it's already done. What do you want me to do? Should I let you put your clothes back on?" Zuo Kai was at his wit's end. She had a high fever and her clothes were soaked; it was necessary to change them.
"You’re so shameless! Why do you always bully me?" Long Shaoxue was both angry and annoyed as she grabbed a pillow and hit him with it. Zuo Kai sat still; he had just recovered from his fever and didn’t want to deal with this woman any longer.
"Long Shaoxue, stop making a scene," Zuo Kai suddenly grabbed her hand and kissed her fiercely. Long Shaoxue was still inexperienced; she dropped the pillow in surprise.
Zuo Kai found himself enjoying kissing her more and more; no matter how he kissed her, it never felt enough. His hands began to wander restlessly.
Long Shaoxue snapped back to reality and pushed his hands away. "What are you doing? This is shameless! Have some decency!"
"I take back what I just said," Zuo Kai replied.
Long Shaoxue looked confused. "Which one?"
"Your figure is great, and it feels nice to touch. Tomorrow, I'll talk to the CEO and let you go home. Don't worry." Zuo Kai let out a light sigh. Could it be that he was starting to like this girl? No way.
"Zuo Kai, you big bad guy! You’re being so forward with me. What do you mean by that? Do you like me?" Long Shaoxue's voice trailed off at the end, barely above a whisper. She didn't even know what was happening to her; all she felt was her heart racing, and her face turned bright red.
Zuo Kai lifted her chin, forcing her to look at him. "So, do you dislike me?" If she didn’t hate him, maybe he could try to convince the CEO to keep her. Although that would be a bit tricky.
Long Shaoxue's eyes widened; her world was still quite innocent. "I don’t know."
Zuo Kai softened his voice and gently touched her face. "Then when I kiss you, do you dislike it? Be honest."
"I really don’t know; my heart just races." Long Shaoxue had never been in a relationship before, while Zuo Kai had far more experience. Seeing her silly expression made him wonder how someone could be so naive.
"Tomorrow, I’ll tell the CEO I want you with me. He originally planned to sell you off, but don’t worry; I want you." Zuo Kai ruffled her hair, thinking how truly fated they were.
"Zuo Kai, what do you mean? Do you like me just because you kissed me, or are you like this with everyone?" Long Shaoxue was still more concerned about this question.
"What do you take me for? Do you think I want to kiss every woman I see? Just give me an answer—do you want to be with me or not?" Zuo Kai said impatiently, though he felt a bit nervous inside.
"Will you be mean to me every day? Will you treat me well?" Long Shaoxue recalled how he comforted her when applying medicine and giving her injections. He wasn’t as bad as he seemed.
"I’ll only be mean if you're disobedient. If you're good, I won’t be." Zuo Kai had a threatening look on his face, resembling a big tiger watching a little rabbit.
Long Shaoxue nodded. "You’ve already kissed me and looked at me like that; I’ve never been looked at this way by anyone else."
Zuo Kai thought to himself that there was actually someone so innocent in this world. He might as well keep her since, as she said, he had already touched her.
"Long Shaoxue, I didn’t see clearly before; now I want to see everything clearly. You’re marked as mine—don’t worry; I will treat you well." Having investigated her background earlier, Zuo Kai knew very well that this girl had never been involved with any other man.
"Please don’t," Long Shaoxue suddenly pulled the blanket over herself. Zuo Kai was just trying to scare her. "Take your medicine and get a good night’s sleep. Wait for me to come back and pick you up, okay?"
Long Shaoxue nodded, opened her mouth, and swallowed the medicine. "It's so bitter, Zuo Kai, so bitter," she said, her brows tightly furrowed.
Zuo Kai held her close and kissed her. Indeed, it was very bitter. He gradually absorbed the bitterness from her lips, and after a while, he released her. "Is it still bitter?"
"You’re bullying me," Long Shaoxue said, covering her mouth. She had been kissed again, and to her surprise, she found herself enjoying his kiss.
"Zuo Kai, can I ask you something? How is my brother doing?" Long Shaoxue had been trapped here for several days and had no idea what was happening outside.
"Long Shaoxue, your brother harassed our Lady, which is why the president is so angry. Now the president and Lady have divorced again, and the president is in a very bad mood. That’s why he captured you. Your brother brought this on himself; it won’t help to plead with me. After all, he has to bear the consequences of his own actions." Zuo Kai felt helpless; besides, this matter was handled by Xiao Lin. Given Xiao Lin's relationship with Lady, it seemed that no one could plead for him.
"What should I do? I only have one brother," Long Shaoxue said, not one to distinguish right from wrong lightly.
"Don’t worry. Once our president calms down, perhaps we can ask Lady for help. In fact, Lady has a good heart; she loves the president as well. If we can find a way to get them back together, maybe they will let your brother go." Zuo Kai thought for a moment; only by improving the president's mood could there be hope for Long Shaotang.
"Thank you, Zuo Kai. Can I personally go apologize to Lady for my brother?"
"Not now. You stay here obediently and wait for my news. I believe the president will agree." After all, Zuo Kai had been by Lu Tianyang's side for so long; he had some influence over him. At least he felt confident that Long Shaoxue's situation would be considered, but he couldn't guarantee anything regarding Long Shaotang's matter.
