Love Me Harder, Mr. Fu - Chapter 47

Stepping inside the hot shower, Shi Lian let her soar body get immersed with the hot drops of water. She has done something she never did. She was too embarrassed to say goodbye to Fu Zichen. She ran away hurriedly when the car stopped at her house before he could say anything. She blamed the wine because that was making sense to it. Such a luxurious wine is sure to have high alcoholic content. That’s what she is telling herself since the moment she entered. Her mother must have noticed her uncomfortableness, she thinks but it was right to take her time and talk things out with her later.

The moment inside the car with him…was something she will never forget. Does she regret it? No, she doesn’t. She liked whatever happened between them because she wanted it to happen for a long time she doesn’t even have a clue of. Blaming it on the wine would be ridiculous when she was aware the whole time when they were making out in the car. It was cute when he asked her if she wants it or not. He didn’t force her to do it and that she was glad. She thinks that maybe he is not that bad she imagined he is. She lived every moment, every touch, every kiss was deep and sensual and goddamn hot. She now thinks it was rude to just run away without saying anything after the intimacy they had.

The thing she is worried about is how she will face him in the future? He is her business partner so they will meet often.

She turned off the shower and step out of it. She takes the robe hanged to her right on the wall with the help of a hanger and wears it. Looking at herself in the mirror, she replays the scene that happened in the car. His touch on every inch of her body, his gentle pecks, and passionate kisses, she ponders and when she comes into reality, she looks at herself, cheeks as red as tomato which are fully flushed. She feels her legs squirming and the wetness between her thighs. She shakes her head to remove all those thoughts and hurriedly gets out of the bathroom.

Fu Zichen is unable to hide the grin on his face. Ever since he came to his house, all he can think of is her. A minute he smiles, the second he blushes. The fact that she wants him as badly as he was a surprise for him but in a good way. Tonight was a success for him and he is thinking of asking her out often but he hesitates because of the way she ran away as soon as the car stopped, he thought that she may not be as happy as he is. But he doesn’t want to overthink and ruin everything he had, for now.

When they had their first encounter, the first time he got closer to her, he craved for her since. He craved for her skin, her feel, her touch, her everything. It was like she was her drug and he cannot help thinking about her every single second. She was drunk the first time and he did felt a little guilt when she told him he took advantage of her but tonight, she wasn’t drunk. She was aware of what is happening and she wanted him! Never in his life would he have thought of making out in the car. It was rule-breaking and wild! And man he liked it, he loved it!

He got a call earlier about the company so now he needs to work, well it’s not the first time he has to stay up late. There were times when he had to pull an all-nighter; he wasn’t able to sleep for almost a week, he worked without stopping for a whole damn week yet he never said he was tired. That’s his specialty, he never gets tired.

“Email me the copy of IGL” he mandates to one of his workers. He hangs up and shoves his phone in his sweatpant pockets as he travels to his office, upstairs.

He lives alone in this luxurious and spacious grand villa. He designed the villa by himself and after the completion of it, he moved in from Pearl mansion. His mother protested a hundred times not to leave her, creating fake dramas but he just couldn’t live there anymore. It’s been five years since he started living here all by himself and he never regretted living all alone. He is contented because he doesn’t like crowds or people as they make him suffocate.

Looking at the villa, one can know about his taste, what he likes and what kind of a person he is. The villa is situated in the eastern suburbs of Shanghai, where all the rich people live. From the exterior, the villa is mighty white and windows all around. One can think that choosing glasses is a wrong choice as the thieves can easily break them and rob everything inside it but no, the glass is not some ordinary glass. It is a rare quality glass brought from Germany and it costs heaven. Not a single scratch can be made on the glass even if you hammered on it, drill on it try to break it. This glass is unbreakable and so Zichen likes it very much.

Entering inside, the first thing you will see are stairs, the stairs are the entrance that leads to the living room. The stairs are painted greyish white with glass supporters on both sides. After reaching the living room, the house looks more spacious and grand. The sofas are placed in the center, accompanying a coffee table in between them. a big television is set up above the fireplace and is positioned in front of the seating area. The room is always cold, just like his personality. Although the living area seems bing spacious, there are only five rooms in here. As he lives alone, having more rooms will be waste of time and money, he thought when he was designing it. The kitchen is located at the left of the room, the kitchen is small but it has all the types of equipment an elite restaurant would have. He doesn’t use the kitchen often, the last he used it was three years ago. He mostly had his food at the office it and he rarely comes to his home.

His office is located to the right, at the corner end of the room. He opens the door of his office and enters inside. The office is similar to his company’s office. Similar cherrywood desk, similar leather seats, and the interior are also somewhat similar as well. he walks to his chair and sits comfortably. Turning on his laptop, he works on the paperwork that needed his attention. A pop sound and he knows his email has arrived. He continues working in the silent and tranquil room.

The next day

Today is a big day for Shi Lian. Her all hard work will pay off today, the investment she did for all these months, today is the day she will be proving herself to the world. She almost forgot that today is the meeting, her mind was occupied with him and yesterday’s wildness.

She reaches downstairs for breakfast and then she realizes today she will be crowned as the Chairman. Will she have to give a speech? Does she have to prepare something related to it? She ponders on it as she comes downstairs. Her father and her mother are already sitting at the table, they smile seeing her daughter. They greet each other good morning and start with their breakfast. She is in no mood for eating, well she usually doesn’t eat breakfast because her stomach couldn’t accept the rich and heavy food early in the morning. She can stay without eating anything the whole morning but cannot eat congee or anything else.

“You have to finish. No more dilly dally” her mother notices Shi Lian making faces as she is faced with food before her. Shi Lian pouts when her mother nags her which makes Nanny Zhang chuckle who is standing behind Sha Sha.

They finish their breakfast quietly with Shi Lian forcing herself to eat the whole thing. She gulps down the kiwi juice, her essential component.

“Ready my daughter?” Zheng Yuan asks as he wears his coat. He was nervous as well when the shareholders had a meeting last night. Some were against the decision but some people supported him, still, he cannot keep his heart at rest.

“I guess so. I am” she forces a confident smile as she says. She is not at all confident about anything which will be happening today but she cannot postpone or cancel it either. They both head outside and hop inside the car, where Zhang is waiting. He starts the car and they had to the company.
