Lin Moli finally paid the price for her audacity.
In the past, she had mustered up the courage to ambush Jiang Fei several times, inspired by the romantic scenes from Korean dramas and her own vivid imagination. However, those attempts were always half-hearted and superficial, more like playful gestures than genuine expressions of love. Her “attacks” were naive, lacking the depth and intensity of real passion.
But when she inadvertently ignited Jiang Fei’s desire, and he took the initiative, things were no longer child’s play. This was the real deal.
Now, Lin Moli felt a mix of fear and confusion. Jiang Fei held her tightly, his body pressing against hers. Even if she wanted to struggle, she couldn’t break free. His kiss was no longer the innocent peck she had tried before—it was deep, intense, and overwhelming. Within seconds, his tongue had breached her defenses, entwining with hers in a passionate dance.
“This guy!” Lin Moli’s heart raced like a startled deer.
As a mature woman, Lin Moli naturally understood that real kissing involved more than just pressing lips together. It required the use of tongues, something she had always avoided during her previous attempts. She had found the idea embarrassing and even a bit “gross,” given her slight aversion to such intimacy.
But now, Jiang Fei had crossed that boundary, opening up a new world for her. She realized that this kind of contact wasn’t disgusting at all—it was exhilarating, sending her soul soaring as their tongues intertwined.
“Mmm!”
A man who had been holding back for too long was indeed terrifying. While Jiang Fei’s mouth was busy, his hands weren’t idle either. They roamed over her body, finally settling on the full, soft curves he had long coveted. He kneaded and caressed them with a hunger that left Lin Moli breathless.
By now, Lin Moli felt like she was floating. Under Jiang Fei’s skilled touch, her body responded intensely, her inexperience making her even more sensitive.
Swoosh!
Jiang Fei pulled down the coffee-colored sleeveless dress from Lin Moli’s shoulders, revealing a expanse of pale, smooth skin. The purple lace bra she wore only added to the allure, its delicate design drawing attention to the deep cleavage that seemed capable of performing feats like “holding a pen.”
Lin Moli’s upper body was now barely covered, her heaving chest and the tantalizing valley between her breasts leaving Jiang Fei utterly captivated.
Breathing heavily, Lin Moli closed her eyes, her head tilting back as if she had fainted. Jiang Fei’s lips trailed downward, leaving a trail of kisses along her neck, her collarbone, and finally reaching the soft, pink peaks of her breasts.
Jiang Fei felt like he was on fire, his body unable to withstand the heat any longer. The woman in his arms was too enticing, a sight he could never tire of. Lin Moli, who had always been bold and assertive in front of him, now lay passive and dazed, unsure of what to do. She simply allowed Jiang Fei to take the lead, like a young girl experiencing her first time, waiting for that sacred moment to arrive.
The coffee-colored dress hung loosely around Lin Moli’s slender waist as Jiang Fei buried his face in the deep valley between her breasts, utterly entranced. His hands moved lower, intent on removing the dress entirely and unveiling the stunning body beneath.
“Wait… stop!” Lin Moli, who had been silent until now, suddenly reached out and grabbed Jiang Fei’s hand, panting heavily.
By this point, Jiang Fei had already pulled her dress down far enough to reveal the matching purple lace panties.
“Stop? No way!” Jiang Fei growled, easily breaking free from her grasp and continuing his advance.
The arrow was already on the bow—there was no turning back now.
This wasn’t him forcing himself on her. She had been the one to provoke him!
Lin Moli, who had kept her eyes closed until now, suddenly opened them. Though her eyes were glistening with desire, she bit her lip and uttered three words: “Bai! Ruo! Xi!”
“…” Hearing those three words, Jiang Fei froze, his movements slowing to a halt.
The heated atmosphere instantly cooled, and Lin Moli finally had a chance to catch her breath.
The man’s assault had been too intense, his techniques too clever… Damn him! He must have practiced on other women countless times. Lin Moli felt a pang of resentment. This was her first time, and it felt so unfair!
If she had waited any longer, she would have been completely swept away by Jiang Fei’s passion, losing all sense of reason.
After calming herself and regaining control of her body, Lin Moli looked at Jiang Fei with tender eyes and said, “I was actually… ready. If you wanted me, I could have given myself to you long ago. But… you weren’t ready.”
Jiang Fei’s face twitched, but he remained silent.
Lin Moli also fell silent, feeling a deep sense of regret. She had hoped that Jiang Fei wouldn’t stop after hearing Bai Ruoxi’s name. If he had continued, it would have meant he was truly ready to accept her.
Unfortunately, he had stopped.
But it was precisely because of this that Lin Moli loved him. Jiang Fei was lustful but not promiscuous. He appreciated the new without discarding the old, holding onto his principles and boundaries.
“I could still give myself to you now…” Lin Moli sat up on the sofa, watching as Jiang Fei slowly moved away from her.
“Enough!” Jiang Fei shot her a frustrated look.
He now realized just how clever Lin Moli was. No wonder she had the potential to become a business tycoon. No matter the situation, she always knew how to hit the right nerve.
In the heat of the moment, no amount of pleading would have stopped him. But she hadn’t pleaded. Instead, she had simply uttered Bai Ruoxi’s name, casting a spell that froze him in his tracks.
Lin Moli was ready, but he wasn’t. His unresolved feelings for Bai Ruoxi made it impossible for him to fully commit to Lin Moli.
“Honestly, I don’t mind. You can continue. If you’re not ready now, we can figure it out later,” Lin Moli said with a meaningful smile as she stood up and slowly pulled her dress back up, covering her chest and stomach.
Jiang Fei glared at her, then walked over to the kitchen and poured himself a large glass of cold water, gulping it down to quell the fire raging inside him.
As his body cooled, so did his mind. He began to reflect on what had just happened. Was it genuine passion, or just a moment of lust?
Human emotions were the most complex and difficult to unravel.
After adjusting her dress and smoothing her hair, Lin Moli walked over to Jiang Fei, took the glass from his hand, and poured herself some water. She took a sip, then gave him a playful, reproachful look.
“What are you smiling about?” Jiang Fei grumbled.
“I’m just putting on a brave face. I’m actually feeling really wronged and upset,” Lin Moli replied with a pout.
“…”
You’re feeling wronged? You’re upset? Jiang Fei thought indignantly. If anyone should be frustrated, it’s me!
“Don’t think I won’t do it. I’m capable of anything!” Jiang Fei said through gritted teeth. This woman was too bold, daring to provoke him even now.
“I know. But we’re just the unlucky ones, destined to be second choices, to be someone’s mistress,” Lin Moli said bitterly, her mood souring.
Jiang Fei remained silent and sat down on the sofa.
Smart women were tricky. They always knew how to leave you speechless.
Lin Moli sat down beside him and sighed. “Just now, if you had wanted to do something, I wouldn’t have been able to stop you. Even if I had some reservations, I would have given in. But you stopped yourself. It’s not me holding you back—it’s you.”
She rested her head on Jiang Fei’s shoulder and continued, “Sometimes, I wish you were a bit more of a scoundrel, someone who could easily discard the old for the new. If that were the case, I wouldn’t have had to wait so long. But it’s also because of this that I love you. I’ll keep waiting.”
“I understand,” Jiang Fei said softly, taking Lin Moli’s hand and giving it a reassuring pat. He knew that taking things further with a close friend like Lin Moli wasn’t easy. The weight of responsibility was too great.
Women like Su Nan, the beautiful young widow, were much simpler!
“Alright, let’s change the subject,” Lin Moli said, exhaling deeply. “What were you doing upstairs earlier? You were up there for a long time.”
Jiang Fei thought about the gold coins he had earned from the Jiang Clinic and asked, “By the way, this morning you mentioned that the clinic’s net profit since opening has been a little over 100,000 yuan, right? What’s the exact number? Is it 112,000?”
“112,000?” Lin Moli was taken aback, then looked at Jiang Fei with wide eyes and a teasing smile. “Hey, you usually don’t pay much attention to the clinic’s finances. How do you know the numbers so precisely? Are you worried I might embezzle money?”
“So it is 112,000?” Jiang Fei asked.
Lin Moli nodded. “The 110,000 is accurate. The 2,000 might be off by a bit, but it’s close. How did you know that number?”
So it really is a 500:1 ratio.
From now on, for every 500 yuan the Jiang Clinic earns, I get one gold coin for free.
Earn 5 million yuan, and I get 10,000 gold coins.
Earn 500 million yuan, and I get 1 million gold coins.
“It seems mastering the ‘Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms’ isn’t impossible after all. But the road is long and arduous. I need to speed up my money-making efforts!” Jiang Fei thought to himself.
