Chapter 791 - Welcome Back To Reality
’A truck named Lu Zihao. Or Nikolai as he likes to be called in bed.’
He had bent her into so many positions and did so many unimaginable deeds with her body that just thinking about it was making her feel hot and bothered. She flushed at last night’s memories, on how she went wild with a man in bed and had sex almost nonstop until sunrise.
Ah, so embarrassing!
After calming down a little, she finally realized that she was all alone in the room. The side of the bed where Lu Zihao slept was empty. It felt cold to the touch so he must have left some time ago.
Disappointment filled her. She couldn’t help it.
Last night had been so...so...incredible for her. Although she knew that she was just a one-night stand for him—among many other women he must have slept with given that he was so skilled in bed—there was still a small part of her that hoped that he at least also thought that what happened between them meant something for him.
She sighed and laughed at herself. It was a dry, humourless laughter.
’You consented, Jinjing. Deal with it.’
Yes, she should deal with her own decision. She was a young, independent, career woman. So what if she slept with a man? She was already an adult. At least the one she slept with was an attractive man, someone she had a small, secret crush on. Her first time was almost perfect. Her bed partner pleasured her so much that she honestly thought that she might die from overdose.
’Yes, Jinjing. Look at the bright side.’
A one-night stand worth remembering.
Even if it was just for one night, she was able to act wild, free and uninhibited while exploring her sensuality for the first time without worrying about how others might think or say about her. Nobody needed to know about what happened. She had no plans telling anyone about last night, not even her friends from the girl squad or even her best friend, Chen Fei. And she was sure that Lu Zihao would never breathe a word about it to others either. It would be her own little secret.
Giving herself a pep talk was quite effective. She felt much better after the disappointment of Lu Zihao’s absence.
He was just a man, after all. She didn’t need a man to be happy or feel fulfilled. Seeing how her own mother suffered due to a hopeless love affair with her father, she had decided long ago not to depend on a man for her happiness and especially not for her self-worth.
Her career as a business executive presented a lot of exciting opportunities for the future. Although she had her younger sister to thank for in giving her an amazing head start compared to her fellow new graduates, she was also confident about her own skills and ability to handle her current high position. Working hard and striving to become even more successful in her career were more important and much bigger sources of happiness and fulfillment for her than a man right now.
"That’s right," she said out loud but winced upon hearing her scratchy, hoarse voice.
Well, she did scream a lot last night. It was no wonder that her throat felt raw. And it wasn’t only her throat. Something below her waist also felt extremely raw. The hot soak last night was far from effective.
She sighed as she slowly tried getting up from the bed. It felt like the hardest thing that she had ever done physically for a long time. Almost her entire body was aching.
The first thing she did after successfully sitting up was to check the time. It was already noon. She panicked. What about work? She was so late! Then she checked her phone and saw that she had a lot of missed calls. She didn’t hear the calls because Lu Zihao told her to put her phone in silent mode last night after he got annoyed at it beeping whenever she received e-mails.
A few minutes later, she ended a call on her phone. She had just finished talking to Orchidia Beauty’s head of security and Chen Fei on two separate calls. They informed her that the company had to be closed today because the storm last night caused some serious road obstructions.
"This is also good. I need to rest my body today, anyway. And it’s not like I can’t finish some of my work here at home."
Feeling much better about everything, she carefully headed to the bathroom to wash up. It took a long time to walk such a short distance but she was helpless because her entire body ached. Every move made her whimper in pain.
Finally, she reached the bathroom. Success!
Then she gasped, her eyes widening, upon seeing the countless red hickeys all over her neck, chest, waist and other parts of her body. She had already noticed the kiss marks on her front when she woke up but she didn’t realize that it would be this many!
She turned around and peered over. As expected, more hickeys could be seen on her back. Lu Zihao was nothing but thorough. She looked down and yes, there were indeed hickeys on her legs as well, especially on her inner thighs.
Seeing the red marks on her thighs reminded her of the magic he did there with his mouth and tongue. She flushed and felt aroused.
Pak!
She slapped herself on the face and then smiled at her reflection.
"Welcome back to reality, Long Jinjing."
