"Hehe, concede or not? If you admit defeat now, perhaps I can let bygones be bygones," Qin Hui said, wiping his cue stick with a look of feigned sympathy. Of course, Qin Hui wasn't truly sympathetic; he was deliberately provoking Lu Yueyue.
"I don't want your charity, and I won't concede. Let's continue!" Lu Yueyue said proudly. She quickly took off her white shoes and socks, her only two "extra" garments. Qin Hui smiled faintly. As long as the billiards game continued, Qin Hui believed Lu Yueyue would eventually have to concede!
Soon, Qin Hui broke the balls again. Just like last time, Qin Hui gave Lu Yueyue no chance to even get on the table, clearing the balls in one go. Lu Yueyue's eyes widened in disbelief. She wondered if Qin Hui was just incredibly lucky.
This time, Lu Yueyue had no choice but to remove her necklace and the hairpin from her hair.
"Do those count as clothes?" Qin Hui's eyes widened. He thought this rule-bending was utterly shameless.
"Anything worn on the body counts as clothing!" Lu Yueyue retorted defiantly. Qin Hui grudgingly nodded.
Just as Qin Hui was about to break the balls, Lu Yueyue snatched the cue stick and insisted on breaking herself. Qin Hui smiled and stepped aside. Billiards, after all, relied on luck. Sometimes, you were absolutely sure a shot would go in, but it wouldn't, unless your mind was completely stable.
*Bang!*
Just when Qin Hui thought Lu Yueyue was guaranteed to make this shot, it went wide. Perhaps it was the pressure Qin Hui applied, or her unwillingness to lose to Qin Hui, but Lu Yueyue's emotions were unstable, leading to the missed shot. Qin Hui, regaining control, smiled and picked up the cue stick, never giving Lu Yueyue another chance to play.
Once, twice, three times! Soon, Lu Yueyue had very few clothes left on her body. Even if she wanted to play dirty, she had no more tricks up her sleeve.
"You, you!" Lu Yueyue pointed at Qin Hui, unable to speak. If she had to undress any further, Qin Hui would have seen everything. It was then that Lu Yueyue finally realized Qin Hui had been plotting to trick her from the very beginning.
"What? Can't take it?" Qin Hui smiled and walked towards Lu Yueyue. "If you don't want to undress, I can help you with that." A mischievous smile crossed Qin Hui's face. If he didn't teach Lu Yueyue a lesson, she would probably continue to bully him in the future.
"Forget it, I concede. If you dare touch me, you can deal with Bai Xiong yourself." Lu Yueyue stood up straight, her ample chest still rising proudly, as if provoking Qin Hui!
"You!" This time, Qin Hui was speechless. Women, when they resorted to stubbornness, were truly impossible to deal with. Seeing Qin Hui's exasperated expression, Lu Yueyue couldn't help but smile triumphantly. *Little punk, playing with me, you'll get what's coming to you.* Soon, Lu Yueyue put back on the clothes she had taken off, still looking down on everyone like a noble swan.
After a bit of playful banter, the two returned to Qin Hui's room and ordered some barbecue, deciding to rest and enjoy the food after their tiring games.
In Fu Yanli's office, Chu Tiantian said with a wronged expression, "Sister Yan, I think the Young Miss has taken a liking to Qin Hui. They've only met a few times, and now they're inseparable."
"Tiantiantian, don't spout such nonsense. Be careful of the Young Miss's punishment," Fu Yanli said with a frown. However, Fu Yanli's thoughts were similar. According to the Young Miss's habits, she had never been so intimately close with any man before.
"Sister Yan, I think you and Brother Xiao Hui are quite a match. Don't let the Young Miss snatch him away; it would be such a shame. In my opinion, the Young Miss isn't as capable as you are." After saying this, Chu Tiantian quickly left the office, afraid Fu Yanli would punish her. Fu Yanli intended to reprimand Chu Tiantian, but she found that the girl had already vanished.
Lying on her chair, Fu Yanli became conflicted. After Qin Hui had helped her heal her injuries last time, Fu Yanli's perception of him had indeed changed significantly. But Fu Yanli also knew that it was impossible for her to be with Qin Hui. With Qin Hui's talent and strength, she felt she wasn't good enough for him. Yet, seeing Qin Hui having such a good time with other women always made her feel a little uneasy.
In the room, Lu Yueyue held a lamb skewer in one hand and a beer in the other, enjoying herself immensely. Qin Hui's gaze was fixed on Lu Yueyue, his eyes constantly wandering. This made Qin Hui recall a popular online saying: "You want to eat, but I want to eat you." Lu Yueyue chose to ignore Qin Hui's gaze; if she paid attention, she wouldn't be able to enjoy her meal. While ignoring him, Lu Yueyue couldn't help but feel a little proud. *No matter how capable you are, Qin Hui, aren't you still bowing down to my charm?*
The barbecue was quickly devoured by Lu Yueyue, along with half a case of beer. It was truly a mystery how Lu Yueyue maintained her figure with such an appetite! After eating and drinking her fill, Lu Yueyue sprawled onto Qin Hui's bed and turned on the television.
"Ahem, Da... Sister Yueyue, you're not planning to rest in my room tonight, are you?" Qin Hui asked with a hint of awkwardness. It was good to have a beautiful woman around, but Qin Hui was also wary. What if Lu Yueyue got up in the middle of the night and bullied him? Facing the temptation of a beauty, Qin Hui wasn't sure if he could resist.
"Oh my, are you shy? Come on, give Sister a smile." Lu Yueyue was not shy at all, acting like a female hooligan and teasing Qin Hui to her heart's content. Since she couldn't win against Qin Hui in other aspects, Lu Yueyue chose to take a shortcut, seeing how Qin Hui would bow before her.
"You!"
"Lu Yueyue, you're too bold. This is my room. If you want to sleep, you can, but aren't you afraid I'll lose my beastly nature tonight?" Since gentleness wouldn't work, Qin Hui decided to be firm. He refused to believe he would lose to a woman.
"Go ahead, do whatever you want. You can explain it to my father afterward." Lu Yueyue acted as if she had no fear of death, lying on the bed casually, looking as if she were ripe for the picking.
"You!" Qin Hui was immediately speechless. It wasn't scary to encounter a hooligan, but it was scary to encounter a female hooligan who reasoned with you. Seeing Qin Hui so annoyed, Lu Yueyue laughed heartlessly, her dimples appearing beautifully.
"Lu Yueyue, you're always clinging to me. Have you fallen for me?" Qin Hui suddenly said. In Qin Hui's opinion, Lu Yueyue's fondness for him was probably because she liked him. This wasn't hard to tell; having experienced so many women, Qin Hui was most sensitive to such things.
"I, I don't like you at all. You're just imagining things."
"You? Sister isn't interested in someone like you." Although Lu Yueyue's tone was bold, she felt a little guilty deep down.
