Chen Yu's handsome face instantly contorted with displeasure. His gaze toward Xia Yangyang held a hint of awkwardness. Xia Yangyang felt incredibly embarrassed; being caught in such a compromising situation was mortifying. However, Chen Yu merely perceived her reaction as delicate feminine shyness. If her husband was Gu Qichen…

"I'm sorry to interrupt," Chen Yu said. "I'll leave now."

He turned to go.

"Chen Yu," Xia Yangyang called out as he reached the door.

She wasn't sure why she'd called him, but Chen Yu's demeanor seemed unusually subdued, as if he'd received a significant blow. He halted.

Not knowing what to say, Xia Yangyang managed, "Thank you for visiting, and take care."

After a pause, Chen Yu departed. An eerie silence filled the room.

"Seems you're rather disappointed," Gu Qichen's icy voice broke the silence.

Reflexively, Xia Yangyang blurted, "Why would I be? I have no relationship with Chen Yu." She felt compelled to explain, terrified that Gu Qichen might misunderstand.

Gu Qichen's expression softened slightly. He approached her. "Shall we continue without further tantrums? If you cooperate, I'll apply the ointment."

Exhausted by the turmoil, Xia Yangyang ceased her resistance and began to undress. Gu Qichen, however, turned and locked the door before returning to the bed. Xia Yangyang was already undressed and lying down. Her body was striking—curvaceous, with a back as smooth and fair as porcelain, though marred by numerous small red bumps.

Gu Qichen sat beside her and applied the cream, spreading it evenly with his fingertips. Xia Yangyang's body itched and ached, but the cooling ointment soothed the discomfort. "Rub more, right there," she moaned, "scratch it."

Gu Qichen watched her, looking as relaxed as a lazy cat. Her earlier shyness was gone. A faint smile touched his lips as he gently scratched her back.

It felt as if he were stroking a cat. Her skin was exquisite, delicate as silk. His fingers traced her back, sending a thrilling sensation through him. This was unlike anything he'd experienced with a woman before.

Bending over, he kissed her back gently, then slowly moved lower. He felt his self-control slipping, his breath growing heavy. But Xia Yangyang showed no reaction to his advances. When he looked at her, however, she was sleeping peacefully.

Sighing, Gu Qichen continued applying the ointment.

When Xia Yangyang awoke, it was early morning. The room was empty. The red bumps on her back had faded significantly. Bored, she got out of bed, wandered around, and turned on the television. The morning entertainment news was on.
