He was surprisingly upset about it, which seemed out of character for him. Why was he reacting this way? Could it be because he knew that the woman was only doing this to complete her task?

He was irritated by actions that were solely task-driven!

He even nurtured nefarious thoughts of not letting her have her way. Plus, though he indulged in pleasures, he never lost his self-control, even in the most intoxicating situations. His rationality and alertness always kept him in control of the situation.

Until now, no woman had ever managed to completely captivate him, to cause him to lose himself.

Her inexperienced allure -- could it really seduce him and bring him satisfaction? Highly unlikely.

While lost in thought, the door to his study opened quietly and a slender figure seemed to purposefully, yet unintentionally, walk in.

Third Young Master Jun frowned, he did not like being disturbed while reading.

But, it also intrigued him to see what this woman planned to do.

Ye Lu moved silently on the soft sheepskin carpet with her bare, jade white feet, somewhat like a lost kitten. Her eyes were hazy and her steps wavered, oozing an unforeseen allure with her ’just recovered’ innocence.

Third Young Master Jun raised an eyebrow, he hadn’t expected this ordinarily wooden woman to have such an alluring gait.

She sauntered over, standing above him in an imposing manner, looking down on him as he sat on the couch, a hint of a queen-like demeanor in the tilt of her chin.

Third Young Master Jun squinted. Had this woman grown so bold as to look down on him from such a lofty angle? Was she courting death? 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

But, seeing her half-closed, starry eyes light up with a hazy glow of intoxication, the small, beautiful, clean face flushed with redness like a blossoming spring flower, was captivating.

Her slightly curved lips, sparkling like dew-kissed petals, were partially open, releasing a fragrant whiff of liquor.

"You’ve been drinking?" demanded Third Young Master Jun, displeased.

"Yes, I did. What are you gonna do about it?" Ye Lu looked at him provocatively, her arrogant expression, combined with her rosy cheeks, was especially enticing.

Third Young Master Jun felt as if he was being delicately tickled by a feather. This made him feel an itch that he just couldn’t scratch, and his blood ran hot.

As an experienced man, he quickly calmed his restlessness. He raised an eyebrow, saying mockingly, "And you think that’s enough to draw me in? Your skills still need cultivating."

He couldn’t deny that her drunken state had its own charming softness unlike her usual demeanor. But, for a man like him, it wasn’t alluring enough to seduce him.

"What about this, then?"

Ye Lu laughed, her intoxicatingly beautiful legs lifting up, her toes barely grazing the paper, covering the classical prose.

Her delicate, white foot was so soft, rounded, and cute.

Seeing her foot appearing so unexpectedly before his eyes, her sensual beauty made even the most self-possessed of men’s blood run hot, almost beyond resistance.

Third Young Master Jun’s blood rushed to his head, his heart pounding, he had clearly underestimated this woman.

Even the least sexually attractive woman, once she becomes sensual, can shatter heavens and earth, leaving one incredulous.

With half-closed eyes, his heated gaze couldn’t help but trailed lazily up from her beautiful feet, up inch by inch along her white as snow skin.

She was wearing a simple robe with a waist belt that hung like a dress. When she lifted her leg, the soft sides of the robe parted, revealing slender thighs, partially hidden under the robe.
