Shen Wan slapped the man beside her awake.
Looking at the men's shirt she was wearing, she gritted her teeth. "Gu Yanzhi! You took advantage of me while I was helpless!"
President Gu pressed a hand to his bleeding nose, opened the security footage, then slowly unbuttoned his pajamas to reveal the scratches on his chest.
"Take a good look. What kind of beastly things did you do to me last night?"
"Then what about the marks on my neck? Weren't those your doing too?"
"Miss Shen, think carefully about who you were with." At the mention of it, dark currents stirred in Gu Yanzhi's eyes.

"We... We're all adults. Even if I did something a little out of line to you last night, under those circumstances, it was perfectly natural, okay? We were both getting what we wanted."
"Shen! Wan!"
"You'd better know exactly what you're saying." Gu Yanzhi fixed Shen Wan with a chilling stare.
