Her eyes, full of bewilderment, took him in. Noticing that his complexion was somewhat better than back in the primeval forest, she felt a stone lift from her heart—his recovery must have been progressing well over this time!

But he said he was recuperating in East Asia, so how did he suddenly appear in North America without any warning, and he didn’t even call to tell her.

Third Young Master Jun rubbed his temples.

"It’s a long story, but now is not the time for it, I have something to take care of."

Ye Lu, recalling his secretive actions just now, looked up and noted their position, which was right out of the hallway surveillance’s blind spot. A shock went through her as she looked at him with even more suspicion: "Are you hiding from someone?"

Third Young Master Jun’s eyes lit up: "Smart, my wife is getting sharper and sharper, let’s seal it with a kiss."

Taking advantage of the moment, he stole a kiss on her soft cheek, seizing a favorable opportunity.

Ye Lu glared at him, dissatisfied: "Don’t change the subject."

"Alright, stop asking so many questions, help me with something." Third Young Master Jun’s gaze was serene as he calmly surveyed the surroundings, pulling Ye Lu up the safety door stairs to the third floor, all the way to the nineteenth floor.

Then, evading the security cameras, they stopped at the door of a room. He looked around cautiously, then took out a special magnetic card, carefully inserting it into the door lock. After a moment, with a click, the door opened.

"Is this room yours?" Ye Lu asked.

"Not really, just borrowing it momentarily."

Ye Lu’s face darkened—they were so wealthy now, yet they were breaking into an empty room? This really wasn’t becoming of a distinguished family’s scion.

But on second thought, what was that magnetic card he had that could open a hotel room’s coded door? Wow, that’s something impressive!

After entering, Third Young Master Jun didn’t close the door, just left it ajar.

As the two of them walked in, Ye Lu surveyed the room, about to ask what he planned to do, but when she turned around, her eyes widened in shock, as if struck by lightning.

"What... what are you doing? Why are you taking off your clothes?" She was so surprised her mouth could fit an egg.

Third Young Master Jun’s eyes were seductive: "What do you think?"

His hands moved deftly as he spoke.

"Are you going to take a shower?" Ye Lu’s eyes bulged.

"What a dull answer. ’Not seeing each other for a day feels as long as three autumns.’ We don’t even know how many autumns it’s been since we last met. Don’t you miss me? Don’t you want to knock me down and enjoy me?"

Third Young Master Jun’s gaze was devilishly enchanting, with a touch of wistfulness in his tone.

"Or are you saying my sexy body is no longer attractive to you?"

Ye Lu burst out... her nose bleeding, her face flushed crimson.

Stop being so explosive upon our meeting, okay? His wicked and teasing demeanor, combined with that plaintive tone, truly made one’s body tingle and become helpless to resist.

Ahem, but she needed to maintain her integrity. Clearly, he was just teasing her; he’d just said there was something important to attend to, and now he’s suddenly being frivolous, how annoying.

"Stop flirting, you said there was something important to take care of, right? Let’s handle the serious matters first."

"Who says this isn’t serious business?" Third Young Master Jun was actually taking off his pants.

Ye Lu’s face turned pale, her eyes wide. Could he be serious?

They needn’t be so hasty; they had only just met. Even with a burning desire like dry wood igniting a flame, it was burning too quickly. For this kind of thing, ahem, they should at least go home first.

Third Young Master Jun, however, paid no heed to her astonished expression, removing all his clothes. Then, he climbed onto the bed, slipped under the covers, propped his chin with one hand, with his chest partially exposed, his slender, undulating eyes coyly watching her, giggling mischievously with ill intent.

Ye Lu felt a shiver down her spine under his gaze, so eerie.
