So hot, very hot!
The heat deep within her body was like a beast about to burst out. Duan Morou kept tearing her clothes, trying to find a way to vent this heat.
Finally, all her clothes were removed with the help of strong hands, connecting her skin directly with the cool air. A cool, hefty body draped over her.
That cool sensation felt like a lifeline. She involuntarily arched her body, wanting it closer.
But pain followed, and right before she could cry out, all her screams were silenced.
Duan Morou's thoughts scattered bit by bit. Until, she fainted...
"Ding-a-ling-ling..." The sharp, grating sound of a phone ringing jolted Duan Morou awake.
The room was still dark, and her head ached so much that she could barely open her eyes.
Why was she having that dream again?
She had been living in Hong Kong for four years and only had this dream in the beginning. She hadn't had it ever since, and she thought it wouldn't come again. But now…
She reached out her hand to grab the continuously ringing mobile phone on her bedside table. After a while, she realized something was different. Her eyes had already adjusted to the darkness and she looked all around. Suddenly, she sat up and switched on the bedside lamp.
She numbly gazed at the unfamiliar, spacious bedroom, then looked at her naked body under the blanket. To her horror, she found out that it was not a dream, it happened for real!
She had been slept with by a man!
And she didn't even know who that man was!!!
Oh god, Duan Morou, what have you done?
If she were single now, it wouldn't matter; isn't it just a one-night stand? But the problem is, she’s now a married woman. Although she hasn't seen her husband once in half a year, she is still legally married!
Her cell phone was still ringing. Duan Morou's mind was in chaos as she grabbed it, it was a call from her assistant, Lin Man.
"Sister Rou, why haven’t you arrived yet? President Li is looking everywhere for you! Heard that the protagonist in Xiao Wen's drama had been replaced..."
"I know, I'll be right there!" Duan Morou quickly replied.
After she hung up, she pushed off the covers and stood up. As soon as her feet touched the ground, she nearly stumbled and fell. The pain from her body was as if proving to her that she indeed was with a man last night.
Duan Morou got up supporting herself on the bed. She also saw the mess beside the bed, it seemed that the night was intense.
If she weren't the one in this situation, she would definitely whistle in admiration. But at this moment, she was so grief-stricken that she wanted to cry but had no tears.
When she was choosing her clothes in the dressing room, she took down a man's suit and looked at it. It was a tailor-made Armani suit, it looked quite large judging from the build.
Suddenly, a flash of pain shot through her mind, her face instantly turned pale. She kept shaking her head, trying to shake off the images from last night.
Duan Morou stepped out of the dressing room, picked up her bag outside, and quickly left the suite.

Upon entering SIA Agency, Duan Morou went straight to Li Xianghui's office.
"Morou, what's the meaning of this? Are you playing hide and seek with me? Don't you know that Director Feng is really hard to meet? How could you stand him up halfway? Do you know how many calls I've made, how many apologies I've had to give? You think you can afford to offend people like them? What the hell have you been doing?!" As soon as Li Xianghui saw Duan Morou walk in, he quickly put down the phone in his hand, said with a discontented expression.
Duan Morou stood there silently. Yes, last night she was supposed to meet with Director Feng Zheng for the film "Drug Hunter" along with Li Xianghui.
This film, which was scheduled three months ago to be led by the popular star Yi Haowen, who she had brought to the limelight, was originally expected to start shooting on day one of next month. However, with less than a week to go until the film shooting, Duan Morou, as Yi Haowen's agent, received news that Director Feng Zheng intended to replace Yi Haowen with another popular actor.
