Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 73 - 71: Inviting the Wolf into the House

In Suwang Island, aside from business partners, everyone else addressed Huo Zhenyang as Huo Ye.

"This is Miss Jiayi, please arrange a room for her on the second floor."

Huo Zhenyang ordered, as some contract follow-ups still needed to be relayed to the headquarters back in the Mainland, he had to visit the Suwang Island branch office, glancing at Jiayi, "You get familiar with the surroundings first."

"Mhm," Jiayi nodded.

Seeing Huo Zhenyang drive away, the butler walked up to Jiayi and said in very standard Mandarin, "Hello, Miss Jiayi, you can call me Auntie Ping."

"Hello, Auntie Ping," Jiayi sweetly addressed her.

Auntie Ping did not expect Jiayi to be so easygoing and was somewhat flattered.

Several years ago, Huo Ye also brought a woman to the Phoenix Villa; she seemed to be Huo Ye’s fiancée.

Miss Mu, although courteous and polite, seemed to be behaving that way only when Huo Ye was watching.

When Huo Ye was not around, Miss Mu looked at them, the staff, with a distinct disdain and kept her distance.

In public and in private, she was like two different people.

Auntie Ping led Jiayi into the villa.

Upon reaching the second floor, a room was arranged for her, and with a smile Auntie Ping said, "I wonder if Miss Jiayi likes it? It’s the room Huo Ye personally selected for you yesterday."

The balcony faced the sea directly, decorated with Southeast Asian pastoral charm, refreshing and pleasing to the soul.

Jiayi revealed a sweet smile, "I’m very satisfied, thank you, Auntie Ping."

"That’s good. Huo Ye said if you need anything, you can tell me or the servants, and we will prepare it for you immediately."

"All right, thank you," Jiayi replied and then casually asked, "Does the young master always stay at Phoenix Villa when he comes to Suwang Island?" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"Yes," Auntie Ping pointed towards the open bedroom door outside, her fingertip motioning to the right, smiling as she said, "Huo Ye’s room is just next to Miss Jiayi’s, making it convenient for you to meet."

Jiayi went out for a look, indeed, his room was just next to hers, only a few steps away.

The Huo family’s villa on Suwang Island was much larger than their villa in the Mainland, with dozens of rooms across two floors.

With so many rooms, yet her room had to be arranged right next to his.

That couldn’t be with good intentions, right?!

Jiayi pursed her little face.

The night in the Island Nation arrived quickly.

At night, Huo Zhenyang returned from the branch office in the city center almost at eleven o’clock.

Because the CEO from the headquarters paid a rare visit to the branch office, under the cordial invitation of Charlie and a group of employees, Huo Zhenyang went to a restaurant for a meal with a bunch of subordinates.

In the gathering, he couldn’t avoid having a few drinks.

When he returned to Phoenix Villa, he was slightly tipsy from the alcohol.

Leaning on the massage chair, he rolled up his sleeves and lazily asked, "How about Miss Jiayi?"

Seeing that Huo Ye was quite drunk, Auntie Ping said, "She’s upstairs, it’s late, she’s probably asleep by now. Huo Ye, would you like me to make some sobering tea?"

He loosened his collar and stood up, heading upstairs.

Second floor, outside the bedroom.

He knocked on the door, "Open up."

No response.

He clearly saw the light on in her room.

Not opening the door?

Fine.

The man narrowed his eyes and changed direction, entering his own bedroom.

At the same time, Jiayi, who had already been in bed, was lying down playing with her tablet when she heard his knocking. She jumped off the bed, hid behind the door, listening intently.

As the noise at the door died down, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Coming to her in the dead of night, he definitely was up to no good!

No way she would open the door for this big bad wolf.

No, his knocking had woken her up and she had lost the urge to sleep.

She yawned; the island’s night view was at its most beautiful, and she did not want to miss it.

Thump, thump, she shuffled in her slippers and made her way to the terrace.

She propped up her cheek, mesmerized by the distant beach, so much that she didn’t notice the footsteps gradually closing in behind her.

A gust of warm air rose from behind, and before she could react, she was already enveloped in a pair of long arms that wrapped around her forcefully and dominantly from behind.

"You..." Jiayi certainly knew who it was, and startled, she asked, "How did you get in?"

I definitely locked the door!

Did this man squeeze through the door gap?!

"There’s a door in your bedroom, didn’t you notice? It leads to my room," the man whispered in her ear, his breath hot and wickedly deep.

Jiayi was stunned; indeed, there was a door in her room, but she hadn’t paid much attention to it.

So... it actually leads directly to that man’s bedroom? Her own and his bedroom are connected?

Doesn’t that mean he can come over anytime he wants?

That’s way too dangerous!

It’s like leading a wolf into the house!

This damn man is too perverted.

It seems I need to find a way to get a key and lock that door!

As if he read her mind, he teased, "That door has never been locked, you know."

She clenched her teeth, and at the same time, she smelled the alcohol on him and became nervous, "You... you’ve been drinking? How about you go downstairs to rest first, and I’ll get you a cup of honey water to sober you up."

Damn it, this man always acts differently after he’s been drinking.

No wonder he barged into her bedroom.

The man’s head drew closer, his voice low and rough, "Honey water won’t sober me up."

"That can’t be, last time I drank, you gave me honey water and it worked pretty well!" she still naively argued.

As she spoke, she felt something was terribly amiss; why was the temperature behind her rising...

That’s when she realized what he was about to do.

She was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she stood rooted to the spot.

A moment later, she swallowed hard, "Why don’t you take a shower, or go swimming, or just take a nap... all of these can help you sober up..."

Seeing her desperately scrambling for excuses, obviously scared, his expression fell slightly.

But he still didn’t want to let her go; Zhenyang’s eyes darkened, and he gripped her small hand, "Then help me solve it."

"No!" she exclaimed, trying to pull her hand away, but it was no match for the man’s strength.

...

Half an hour later.

In the bathroom of the bedroom, Jiayi furiously scrubbed her hands under the faucet.

Disgusting man, damn man.

To think that she had to use her hand to help him...

And right there on the terrace, too.

She couldn’t even resist.

The man’s strength was too overpowering; she simply could not break free.

Afterwards, Huo Zhenyang pulled out a tissue to wipe her hands.

But she just glared at him with her sore and powerless little hands, and rushed into the bathroom.

She didn’t know how many times she washed her hands, using up half a bottle of hand soap, nearly scrubbing off a layer of skin; only then did Jiayi lift her head.

Her little face reflected in the mirror was so red it seemed it might bleed.

So, had the relationship between them taken another step forward now?

Drying her hands, she clenched her teeth and returned to the bedroom.

Huo Zhenyang’s face was calm, his thin lips curved with a faint smile as if still savoring the recent moment.

The moment she saw him, her face flared up again.

Seeing her looking like she wanted to burrow into the ground, Zhenyang stood up, walked over, but she already came towards him, pushing him towards the door indignantly, "It’s late, go back to your room."
