Meng Sisi was utterly frustrated.
She never thought that after fighting back at her mom and storming out of the house, she would end up in such a peculiar place.
Meng Sisi felt as if she had been asleep for a long, confusing time, her body feeling dizzy and weak.
When she finally regained some consciousness, she found herself engulfed in darkness. A faint, indistinguishable scent lingered in the air around her.
Then, she noticed that there's someone lying next to her, confidently embracing her waist in their sleep.
What?! Meng Sisi got noticeably startled by this.
Since her childhood, she had always been a loner even when it came to sleep. She wasn’t even used to sharing her bed with her mother. What's happening now?
Pushing down her terrified and surprised feelings, Meng Sisi tried to turn on the light.
But as she fumbled around without finding the switch, she disturbed the person by her side.
Before she could even react, she felt a sudden pull toward the person next to her. Her lips suddenly warmed, making it difficult for her to breathe.
"What in the world...” Meng Sisi screamed in surprise.
As the stranger's breath, tinged with the sharpness of alcohol, hit her face, she almost had a mental breakdown. It took her a brief moment to process that she was kissing someone, making this her first kiss!
To be precise, she felt dazed and confused, in such a baffling and inexplicable place, forcefully kissed by a mysterious man whose appearance she couldn't see clearly!
Gosh, what's going on?
She just remembered having a fight with her mother on her birthday and then running away from home, could she possibly have such an unfortunate encounter with a creepy pervert?
Growing up, Meng Sisi was no stranger to the flirtatious exchanges between her mother and various men; she knew very well what it meant to share a bed with a man. Without thinking twice, she forcefully lifted her leg, kicking the man off the bed.
"Damn it! Who gave you the audacity!" She heard the angry curse of the man, followed by a "shhh" sound, as if something was ignited, and the room lit up.
Huh? Where am I? Meng Sisi sat up, her eyes darting around the room.
What met her gaze was an entirely unfamiliar room. She swore that she'd never seen such an elegantly distinctive room, even in her dreams.
Antique carved wooden windows, ancient woven screen wall, a rosewood dressing table with a large bronze mirror...
The more she looked, the more something seemed off. Meng Sisi's hairs stood on end, her mouth opened wide in surprise.
However, this wasn't the most chilling part.
Just as she was in utter astonishment, a firm hand gripped her chin tightly, "I paid a thousand taels of silver for a night with you, you dare to kick me off the bed?"
Meng Sisi had no choice but to meet the gaze of the one speaking to her, completely dumbstruck.
To be honest, aside from in movies and fashion magazines, she had never seen such a picturesque and elegant man, and moreover, a man dressed in splendid ancient attire.
With a distinct chiseled face, deep dark pupils; those ink-splashed stalwart eyebrows, a high nose, perfectly shaped lips, all showcasing his handsome and noble demeanour.
Sweat trickled down; if it's inevitable that her first kiss would be given away at some point, being kissed by such a charmingly handsome guy didn't seem like such a bad deal...
After zoning out for a few minutes, Meng Sisi stuttered out, "Are you filming a movie? But... how did I end up here?"
The man released her chin impatiently, his good-looking eyebrows slightly furrowed, coldly spat out two words without an ounce of warmth, "Undress."
"Eh," Meng Sisi was stunned again, licking her lips foolishly asked, "What should I take off?"
"Take off your clothes." A glint of crystal clear annoyance appeared on the man's handsome face, as if too lazy to waste further words with her, he plainly stated, "Hurry up, I don't like women who dawdle in bed."
