Chapter 17. I don’t want to be the third party

The apartment that Wen Li rented was not very big, and the bathroom was even smaller. After Huo Yuanchen squeezed in, there was hardly any free space left for them to mess around.

Wen Li felt very uncomfortable being squeezed in. She actually didn't get much pleasure from it, she was just trying to please Huo Yuanchen.

But she couldn't be sure whether Huo Yuanchen was pleased by her.

Halfway through, his cell phone rang. At first he ignored it, but the other party was very stubborn and kept calling. Finally, Huo Yuanchen got annoyed by the noise and hugged her to get the phone.

As soon as the call was connected, Wen Li recognized the voice on the other end of the line. It was pure and lively with a sweet and coquettish tone. He could almost immediately imagine the young girl pouting with dissatisfaction.

She questioned Huo Yuanchen, "Why did you take so long to answer my call?"

Wen Li stopped and tried to leave.

Huo Yuanchen noticed it, put his hand on her head, pushed her down, and spoke into the microphone, "I was busy just now."

His tone was calm, almost cool, and his face was clear, as if he was a complete outsider. He stared straight at Wen Li, signaling her to continue.

Wen Li heard someone on the other side asking him, "Are you there yet? Did you miss me?"

He said "hmm" lightly and reminded the other party, "Go to bed early."

The girl seemed to say something again. He raised the phone a little higher, so Wen Li couldn't hear clearly. He only heard a giggle. She must be very satisfied with Huo Yuanchen's reply.

She thought, this man is such a jerk, being honest with a woman in the bathroom, and flirting with another woman without changing his expression. I don't know if a man with such high IQ is naturally very capable, or if he is just born a scumbag.

As she thought about this, she put more strength with a malicious intent.

Then she saw with satisfaction that his expression changed, and then he quickly hung up the phone and looked down at her with a gloomy look.

"Very courageous."

Wen Li wanted to escape immediately.

It's too late.

After it was over, Wen Li was so tired that he slumped on the toilet without caring about his image, rubbing his wrists, not wanting to move at all.

"Go take a shower." He nudged him with his foot, without much effort.

Wen Li shook his head, "No, I'm tired."

She curled her lips and glared at him in dissatisfaction, "My water bill this month is going to be very expensive."

The man was in a good mood at the moment, and he was rarely friendly to her. "I'll remove you from the blacklist, and I'll transfer the water fee to you."

Wen Li was still full of resentment, "This is too tiring. I'm going to lose a lot of money. You have to pay more."

The man pulled her up and threw her under the shower without saying anything, reminding her, "This is your own fault. There's no point in complaining to me."

Wen Li was so angry that he didn't want to pay attention to her.

He rinsed her clean, turned off the water, threw a towel for her to dry, and coaxed her meaningfully, "Next time I'll let you be on the bottom, it won't be so tiring."

Wen Li was stunned, and subconsciously felt a little resistant to the "next time" he said.

When Huo Yuanchen came out of the shower, Wen Li was already sitting on the sofa blowing her hair. When she saw him come out, she put down the hair dryer and her expression was unusually serious.

"Huo Yuanchen, let's talk."

She was only wearing a nightgown with the collar half open, revealing her collarbone. The nightgown was made of soft fabric, and her round curves could be clearly seen.

Huo Yuanchen stared at her for a long time, his smile chilling, "Want to do it again?"

Wen Li twisted her body to avoid his gaze, "I don't want to."

She was in her own home, she could wear whatever she wanted, and he had no right to blame her.

"I want to talk to you about our relationship." Wen Li finished and pulled up his collar, not wanting him to see more.

Huo Yuanchen smiled coldly and waited for her to continue.

Wen Li quickly organized his words, "Let's treat today's incident as an accident, and from now on..."

As she spoke, she saw him sitting down opposite her, shirtless, with his abdominal muscles clearly defined. He raised his hand and casually played with the strands of hair on his forehead. The back of his hand was covered with bloodstains, all caused by her scratching. It was horrible to look at.

Wen Li felt a little guilty, and his tone was much weaker, "...Don't do this again in the future."

Huo Yuanchen tilted his head, as if thinking about something.

Wen Li was afraid that he would be angry, so she hurriedly explained, "The reason I said this is because you already have a girlfriend. Although I don't have much sense of morality, I do have my bottom line. I don't want to be a mistress, and I won't take the initiative to destroy other people's feelings. I provoked you before because of my father's illness and because you were single. But in the future, I can't do that anymore."

She finished speaking quickly in one breath, as if she was afraid of being interrupted by Huo Yuanchen.

Finally, he added, "Well, in the future, can I exchange Pratt with you for money? Or you can introduce me to other channels. Even if it is higher than the market price, I can accept it."

Huo Yuanchen pinched his brows, feeling that after indulging himself, it would be really taxing to digest her principles and bottom line.

He came here tonight to relax, but now he feels even more annoyed.

"Who told you that I have a girlfriend?" His voice was tired and impatient.

Wen Li was stunned for a moment and looked at him in disbelief. "The girl I met at the hot pot restaurant today said it herself."

"She said that and you believed it? Where's your brain?" He sneered with a disdainful expression.

Wen Li was completely stunned.

It was too obvious that he was such a scumbag. They were flirting in public, and the girl even called him in the middle of the night to check on him. How could this not be a boyfriend and girlfriend?

How could he deny it without batting an eyelid? How shameless is he?

Just as she was stunned, Huo Yuanchen opened the collar of her nightgown, put his hands on it, and pinched it lightly and heavily, but the words he said were as calm as ever.

"I don't want to change the way I deal with you. Instead of worrying about whether I have a date, you should think about how to please me next time."

As he spoke, he pinched hard.

Wen Li couldn't stand it, and hummed softly, with a slight blush on her face.

He heard it, and a somewhat sarcastic smile appeared on his face. He continued, "After all, it's rare to find a woman as wild as you. I just want to try something new. How many times can you let me play with you? It all depends on your ability."

"after all..."

He pulled his hand out, took a wet towel from the coffee table, and wiped each finger carefully. "Your ability concerns your father's life."

Wen Li did not stand up when Huo Yuanchen left.

She was hurt by what he had just said, and felt choked up in her heart, so she didn't even want to show him the most basic etiquette.

Half an hour later, her phone vibrated. She picked it up and saw that it was a message from Huo Yuanchen.

He really removed her from the blacklist and transferred one thousand yuan to her as water bill.

Wen Li replied expressionlessly, "There are still medicines. I don't do deals that will lose money."

He must still be on his way, so he didn't reply immediately. Half an hour later, he sent a string of numbers and said, "Ask my assistant for it."

Wen Li quickly saved the string of numbers and prepared to go there early tomorrow morning.

A little while later, she received another message from him, "Throw away the things in the back of your car, otherwise there will be no deal."

Wen Li cursed him as a "lunatic", ignored him and went to sleep.

As a result, when I contacted Huo Yuanchen's assistant the next day, I was turned away.
