"Ah! What are you doing?!"
Zhou Wenqiong shrieked in fright as Eric tackled her onto the bed.
Eric quickly covered her mouth: "Shhh! Don't make a sound, what if Crystal and your sister see or hear us?"
Zhou Wenqiong was only startled by the sudden attack. After seeing clearly that it was Eric, her racing heart gradually calmed down.
Relationships between men and women are like this: once the first time happens, the psychological defense breaks, and the difficulty of subsequent encounters decreases exponentially.
She rolled her eyes: "You know you can't let Crystal and my sister know, so what exactly are you doing?"
"I'm warning you, Eric, they're sleeping right next door. They can hear the slightest movement. Don't you dare!"
As she spoke, Zhou Wenqiong removed Eric's hand, then tried to push him away but couldn't.
"Oh, get off me, you're so heavy. Get off, get off."
"No, your body smells so good. I noticed it since we got in the car this afternoon. Now I can really take a good sniff." Eric shamelessly buried his face in her neck.
"Don't do that, are you a dog? Don't lick my neck, it tickles. Stop it!"
But no matter what she said, Eric was determined to have her tonight. And through their last encounter, he knew Zhou Wenqiong's most sensitive spot was her neck.
Whenever he kissed her there, Zhou Wenqiong would invariably hug his head tightly and press down hard, with such force that Eric worried he might bite her skin until it bled.
This time was no exception. After a few minutes of continuous assault, Zhou Wenqiong's struggling strength had almost vanished.
She was breathing heavily, pressing Eric's head firmly against her fair neck.
"Qiong, does it feel good?"
"..."
"You look like you're really enjoying it."
"..."
"What? Are you so comfortable you can't speak?"
Zhou Wenqiong suddenly opened her eyes: "Get out, get out of here! This isn't right between us. I can't betray Crystal. If she finds out, she'll hate me to death."
Eric directly kissed her lips, forcefully prying open her teeth, and only released her after a long suck.
"That's not the right way to think about it. Chronologically, our relationship started even earlier than Crystal's. She's the newcomer."
"And your sister and I were together even earlier. I'm sure you know that."
Zhou Wenqiong frowned, her expression complex. She had always suspected Liu Xiaoli and Eric were involved, otherwise, why would he promote her?
But even with 99% certainty, it was still just suspicion.
Now that Eric had said it himself, her suspicion was completely confirmed.
For a moment, her mind was a mess.
Just thinking about it made her feel like she was going to collapse. If this relationship were exposed, it would absolutely shock the world.
Even in the decadent entertainment industry, even in Hollywood, this level of chaos was truly rare.
Of course, she didn't know about the Olsen Sisters. If she did, she probably wouldn't be so surprised.
"No, this can't continue. Crystal is right next door. If she finds out, how can I face anyone!"
"But it really feels so good. Since my husband passed, it's been too long since I've felt this way."
"Eric is handsome and young, and he gave me the Grand Theater to manage. He's already given so much, how can I refuse him?"
"But what about Crystal? She'll go crazy, and this family will be over!"
"What's there to be afraid of! Liu Xiaoli was with him even earlier than I was. Who knows how long Eric has been with her. If she, as a mother, isn't worried, then I, as an aunt, have even less to fear."
"Or maybe just this once. I specifically dressed up, put on perfume, and invited him to my house, wasn't it just to get closer? Tomorrow, we'll just be strangers, colleagues."
A myriad of thoughts flashed through Zhou Wenqiong's mind, filled with worry, fear, tension, excitement, guilt, and shyness, coupled with the increasingly intense physical stimulation.
The alcohol hadn't worn off yet, and her consciousness gradually blurred, slowly leaving only the face she often saw in her dreams.
Ah!
A muffled cry, as if breaking through the chaotic thoughts.
I don't care anymore, I don't want to care about anything.
Just like the song "let it go" says, I just want to release myself now, be my true self, and make myself happy.
The old saying goes, as long as your mindset doesn't slip, there will always be more solutions than problems.
Once the mind is open, the person is also liberated.
Eric suddenly felt Zhou Wenqiong was like a fish that had re-entered the water, coming alive all at once. In no time, she even helped him strip completely.
"Hmm? You've come to your senses?"
"Stop talking nonsense, love me!"
"Yes, sir!"
After a few sips of red and white wine, a few sweet nothings were exchanged.
A fierce battle lasted for nearly an hour. Looking at Zhou Wenqiong, who had been riding him for half the time, Eric gently massaged her.
"Get up, move quickly. Is that all you've got? You were quite energetic last time."
Zhou Wenqiong grumbled a few times, unable to speak.
But what she was thinking was, last time I thought this was just between the two of us. Now you tell me a two-person game has become a four-person game.
I just feel incredibly stimulated, like I'm about to reach heaven. I've already come countless times, it's a miracle I can even still lie on top of you.
Seeing she had no strength left to respond, Eric, the'serf,' sang his song.
Cavalry, charge!
The high-speed impact of the 'large army' was even more devastating. Zhou Wenqiong opened her mouth wide but couldn't make a sound, her expression looking extremely pained.
She could only make intermittent grunts and gasps, unable to form a complete syllable.
"Really no strength left at all? But I'm not satisfied yet."
"You, you hurry up, why are you like a mad bull? My bones are going to be scattered by you."
"But if you don't cooperate, how can I be fast?"
"How about this, I'll give you some encouragement."
Saying this, he picked up his phone and sent a message to Liu Xiaoli, asking her to come to Room.
Then, he carried Zhou Wenqiong off the bed and walked to the door. The latter clung to him like a koala, but Eric's strong physique seemed not to feel her weight; he could completely control her with just one hand.
"Eric, what are you doing? Don't do anything reckless, absolutely don't go out, or I'll be angry!"
Her threat was as faint as a mosquito, probably words she herself didn't believe.
A moment later, a very soft opening sound was heard, and Eric couldn't help but smile.
"Qiong, the excitement you wanted is here!"
Saying this, he pulled open the door, and sure enough, saw Liu Xiaoli tiptoeing down the hallway.
Boom!
Six eyes met, and both their minds instantly went blank. Eric grabbed Liu Xiaoli with a large hand and pulled her in.
He quickly closed the door, and before the two could react, he threw them both onto the bed.
"Wenqiong, you two!"
A few seconds later, realizing what had happened, Liu Xiaoli quickly got up and took a few steps back, staring at the illicit couple in front of her, asking in an angry tone.
Zhou Wenqiong had never expected Eric to be so audacious.
Extreme shame and indignation left her at a loss, so she could only cover her face and shrink into the sheets, saying nothing.
But seeing Liu Xiaoli's angry expression, Eric couldn't help but find it amusing.
Shhh!
He pointed to the next room, making a shushing gesture.
Thinking that her daughter was still sleeping next door, Liu Xiaoli, though furious, still held back from making a scene.
However, her eyes and actions clearly indicated, if you two don't give me an explanation, I'll make you pay.
Phew... Eric shrugged: "What's this? Don't get so angry, it's not good for your health."
Seeing his indifferent attitude, the anger Liu Xiaoli had just managed to suppress immediately flared up again.
She rushed over and pinched Eric's neck. Her fingernails were quite long, instantly leaving several blood marks on his neck.
He hadn't expected her to actually lay a hand on him. Now Eric's temper also flared up. Damn it, this old woman doesn't know her place.
Nicole, Theron, Gadot, Elizabeth... every single one of them, who would dare touch him with half a finger? You're truly bold.
Slap!
With a crisp slap, Liu Xiaoli felt her head spin, followed by a huge force, and she was already pinned to the bed.
She was only wearing pajamas, which ripped apart with a tearing sound, violently removed in a few seconds.
"You have the nerve to question others? Who was it that actively climbed into my bed? Wasn't it you?"
"If you can do it, others can't? The magistrate is allowed to burn down houses, but the common people aren't allowed to light lamps!"
"To tell you the truth, I started with Ah Qiong a long time ago. If you accept it, behave yourself; if not, get out, go back to Chen Jinfei."
"I could get him to terminate the contract yesterday. If I spread the word, without my protection, he'd dare fly to New York to grab people tomorrow, do you believe it?"
He spoke and slapped at the same time, delivering several big slaps. Eric tried hard to control his strength, leaving no marks.
But even though it didn't hurt, the insult was too strong.
However, Liu Xiaoli probably didn't care; her thoughts were completely drawn to Eric's words.
"What if I don't follow his words? This devil holds Crystal's future in his hands. Without him, no one in Hollywood would be willing to give resources to someone with yellow skin."
"Go back to Chen Jinfei? No! I've already betrayed him once, he'll definitely retaliate with a vengeance."
"Find a new backer? But who should I find? And if I find one, will they promote me with as much dedication as Eric?"
"Actually, this guy, aside from being a bit lecherous and a bit twisted mentally, is overall a truly excellent golden leg."
"Finding another one might not even be as good as him. Unless I retire from the industry, wherever I go, unspoken rules are inevitable."
"But... but it's Wenqiong..."
"Bastard! This super scumbag!"
Seeing her eyes flicker, Eric knew Liu Xiaoli was struggling.
She was a realistic woman, or more accurately, pragmatic. She wasn't unable to accept it, it was just that the stakes weren't high enough yet.
Gently smoothing Liu Xiaoli's hair, Eric's tone softened.
"I love Crystal, but I also like you both. You can curse me or hate me, but it won't change me."
"Love? How dare you even utter that word! Me and Wenqiong, is this how you love Crystal?" Liu Xiaoli said mockingly.
"You don't believe me? Then I can make a promise: I will give Crystal a proper status."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Liu Xiaoli was stunned. Zhou Wenqiong also stopped being a shrinking turtle, emerging to look at Eric with a shocked expression.
"You... are you serious?"
"Have I ever lied to you about important matters? Have I ever told you a single lie?"
Gulp!
Liu Xiaoli swallowed. This guy, though shameless, vulgar, dirty, and despicable, was indeed never vague about serious matters.
A surge of wild joy instantly welled up in her heart. What reputation, what honor, what shame... unimportant, all unimportant.
As long as she could marry into the Cooper Family, what she had sacrificed was nothing.
Now he was worth over ten billion, and had a whole bunch of unlisted companies. In the future, he might even be the richest person in the world. What an immense fortune that would be.
Besides, the deed was already done.
"Can time flow backward? I ask you, can time flow backward?"
To gain benefits from the price already paid, that is maximizing the fruits of labor.
If she were to just walk away and cut ties with Eric, what would it mean for her family of three, having been played by him for so long?
Wouldn't it be like being taken advantage of for free!
No, absolutely not.
In a short time, she had completed her mental preparation, and immediately snorted, turning her head away.
Seeing Liu Xiaoli's expression, Eric knew she had compromised again. Anyway, she could always find a reason to compromise.
As for that promise, it would certainly be fulfilled, but as for which 'old' she would be, that was hard to say.
Little Liu's age compared to Ashley and Mary, he didn't know if she was older or younger. Anyway, all three were 17, he'd find time to compare.
Patting the other's cheek, Eric's gaze turned to Zhou Wenqiong.
Liu Xiaoli naturally understood his meaning, grunted, and still crawled over to pull her sister out of the sheets.
That seems too crude, let's use a more elegant description.
The Han Emperor, enamored with beauty, sought a peerless one for many years in vain.
With cloud-like hair, flower-like face, and golden hairpins swaying, she spent spring nights in a warm hibiscus tent.
Serving and feasting, she had no leisure, from spring outings to nightly devotion.
The spring night was short, the sun rose high, and from then on, the emperor no longer attended early court.
In the next room, Little Liu coughed a few times, then suddenly opened her eyes.
She glanced beside her and found that her mother was gone, but she had also been drinking, her vision hazy and confused, so she lay back down and fell asleep.
The next day, the Grand Theater premiere.
The first show was a stage play of frozen, which was undoubtedly sold out.
When the actors began to sing, the completely different singing style from Celine Dion was refreshing and drew applause from the entire audience.
Little Liu looked at Eric's neck and asked curiously: "What happened to your neck? Why is it red?"
Hearing this question, Liu Xiaoli and Zhou Wenqiong trembled slightly, lowering their heads in shame.
