The next day, the morning sun streamed into the five-star luxury hotel.
What the hell!
I threw off the blanket and was instantly startled!
Mom!
Did I really sleep with her?
I was completely naked, and strangely enough, there were spots of red on the sheets?
What the hell is going on? Qu Youyi is a virgin? Why did she play this game with me?
"You're awake?"
Qu Youyi pushed open the door and walked into my room. At that moment, she was wearing my oversized shirt, and beneath it, she seemed to be wearing nothing but a pair of barely-there black panties.
Sexy.
Beautiful.
She was a true temptress in any man's eyes.
Did I really sleep with such a temptress?
What the hell!
If Linna found out about this, I would be dead for sure.
The worst part is—
Why did Ni Ma drug me?
Damn it!
I completely forgot what happened last night; it felt like I didn't even sleep! How did I get so screwed over?
What is this?
I asked Qu Youyi about it. There were too many strange things about this situation. Why would she sleep with me? If she truly was a virgin, then she wouldn't be so promiscuous.
If she wasn't promiscuous, there must be some special reason for her actions!
Hmph!
Qu Youyi snorted coldly and shot me a glare, saying, "What's wrong? Did you forget everything you did last night? You got a little tipsy and started getting handsy with me. Look at what you did! I won't take responsibility; you need to!"
Qu Youyi lifted the blanket and pointed at the spots of red on the sheets, looking somewhat shy.
Her shyness didn’t seem like an act.
Damn it! There must be something fishy going on here!
This must be a trap. I don't even know what they want from me.
Ah! I suddenly pulled Qu Youyi into my arms. She felt soft and fragrant, and her figure was impressive! Holding such a beauty in my embrace while being completely naked made my brother stand at attention!
Even though I knew she had drugged me last night, I couldn't say it out loud. Doing so would mean tearing the mask off our relationship, which would also mean breaking ties with Qu Youyang.
What kind of game are they playing? For someone like me, the only option is to cooperate.
"Hey, what are you doing? Stop it! Put your clothes on!" Qu Youyi quickly pushed me away, her face flushed with embarrassment as she hurriedly escaped from my room.
I watched her retreating figure with a cold smirk.
Sure enough, it wasn't her who slept with me last night. Her shyness and panic were genuine; she clearly didn't want to get involved with me at all. Perhaps no woman had slept with me last night at all.
They had crafted this illusion just to control me? To lead me into their trap? Did they really need to go through such lengths to control me? I couldn't figure out what they were up to.
To further confirm my suspicions, I decided to flirt with Qu Youyi relentlessly.
"Hey, I want to take a shower. Want to join me?"
That evening, after spending the day around Shanghai with Qu Youyi, I lay on the couch smiling at her. Throughout the day, I had made several advances towards her, and she had been enduring it all.
Yes, I could tell she was definitely putting up with me!
"Who wants to shower with you? Stop being annoying!" Qu Youyi shot me a glare, and I couldn't help but chuckle in response.
After a day of testing her, I realized that Qu Youyi was not some promiscuous woman; even if she tried to act that way, she couldn't pull it off convincingly.
"Well then, just wait for me on the bed. I'll be out after my shower so we can have some fun together." I said with a playful smile.
"Oh really? Trying to play tricks on me? You think you can stop me? I'll make sure you regret it!"
Qu Youyi awkwardly laughed and stood up, her cheeks slightly flushed as she said, "I can't do that today; I'm on my period. Women can't sleep with men during that time or else they'll bring bad luck upon them."
"Is that so? Your period?"
I can't believe it.
Even if I don't believe it, there's nothing I can do. I can't just pull down her pants to take a look, right? That would be too undignified for me.
I could only let Qu Youyi be as she is, but I was even more certain that the person who slept with me last night wasn't Qu Youyi.
After I took a shower, Qu Youyi left my room. Once I lay on the bed after my shower, I couldn't help but smile as I thought about it; the Qu Family sisters were quite interesting.
The next day, I received a message from Fang Ying saying that Du Tao was asking where I had gone and wanted me to hurry back.
I chuckled at this and immediately agreed to return.
As for Qu Youyang, everything he knew about me came from Fang Ying. What kind of man did Fang Ying think I was? A man.
So Qu Youyang and the others probably didn't expect me to flirt so boldly with Qu Youyi. They were worried that in just a few days, I might actually sleep with her, so they quickly summoned me back to Kyoto.
I was obedient and rushed back to Kyoto that very night. Fang Ying summoned me, and it seemed she was quite disappointed in me.
Sigh, I'm really at a loss with you. You usually act so serious; how come you become so reckless when you get to Kyoto? You really missed a great opportunity and wasted my efforts.
In a café, Fang Ying looked at me and shook her head helplessly. I was taken aback by this.
Fang Ying put in effort? What did she mean?
What’s going on, Fang Ying? You’re saying I'm not doing well?
I asked, and Fang Ying sighed again before saying: "You’ve already seen through the situation with Qu Youyi, haven’t you?"
I was momentarily stunned, then laughed. Whatever happened in Shanghai, Fang Ying seemed to know all about it.
Yes, I couldn't figure it out either; I had to come up with a way to clarify things, right?
I smiled and asked, but Fang Ying pointed at me with a disappointed expression on her face as she said:
"I'm really at a loss with you. You act so serious normally; you didn’t even make a move on Yue Qing, yet you're flirting with Qu Youyi? Do you know who she is? You've got some guts!"
Fang Ying said this with an exasperated look.
I was momentarily stunned. Isn't she Qu Youyang's sister? It's not that I'm bold enough to flirt with her; it's just that I need to figure out what exactly is going on!
With an innocent expression, I said, "Qu Youyang's sister? Well, that identity is indeed impressive."
I thought to myself that my behavior back then wasn't too excessive, right? After all, it was you all who started flirting with me first.
After hearing what I said, Fang Ying's beautiful face almost twisted in frustration. Then she sighed helplessly and said to me: "Do you even know what the Qu Family lacks the most?"
"What?"
I inquired, "A man?"
Fang Ying responded directly, without hesitation. "What do you mean? Are you serious?"
"What the hell does that mean?" I asked, bewildered.
"The Qu Family has been bullied by other elders because they lack male heirs. If the Qu Family had a capable man, the internal situation in Qing Gang would not be like this. Do you understand what I’m saying?" Fang Ying looked at me.
I realized that Fang Ying thought highly of me; she believed I was capable and decent, which is why she introduced me to the Qu Family. Was she suggesting I marry into the Qu Family? Was that incident just a test to see if I met their standards?
"Come on, that’s a bit much, isn’t it? Don’t tell me the Qu Family's daughters can’t find men; I don’t believe that. And what about Qu Youyi? She’s adopted, right? Even if I married Qu Youyi, I wouldn’t really be considered a man of the Qu Family. Why go through such elaborate means to test me? What exactly do they want from me?" I asked, utterly confused.
Fang Ying sighed helplessly and laid everything out for me. She explained that when a daughter of the Qu Family gets married, she must find someone involved in the underworld.
"Why is that?" I questioned.
"It's because the Qu Family lacks male heirs. The son-in-law must take charge of Qing Gang!"
Looking at the current state of organized crime in the country, with Qing Gang, Hongmen, and Tian Ye Group all vying for power, it was clear that marrying into Hongmen was not an option for the Qu Family's daughters. As for Qing Gang, Fang Ying mentioned that those with capability were simply too old.
The only suitable candidates around the same age as the Qu Family's daughters were those second-generation heirs, but finding a decent man among them was nearly impossible; they had all been spoiled since childhood.
Then Fang Ying met me and thought I was a good fit—capable and not involved in any scandals. Even women like Yue Qing didn’t interest me. So she recommended me to the Qu Family, hoping to bring a capable man into their ranks to help stabilize Qing Gang's internal conflicts.
Fang Ying believed I was loyal and steadfast. She mentioned that since it might be difficult to win me over directly, the daughter of the Qu Family orchestrated this whole drama—not as a test but to make me responsible and break up with my current girlfriend.
My performance had disappointed her somewhat, leading her to send me back within just one day.
After hearing Fang Ying’s explanation, I was left speechless.
Women can be quite complicated! How could the Qu Family have no male heirs? Wouldn’t their patriarch consider having more children?
I asked Fang Ying incredulously. "If the women of the Qu Family are looking for serious suitors, surely they wouldn’t settle for just anyone! And how could they only have one daughter like Qu Youyang? Wouldn’t they have more?"
Moreover, even if I managed to satisfy them and marry one of their daughters, it would likely be Qu Youyi—an adopted daughter! How could I possibly take charge of Qing Gang? Would they really hand over their family business to an outsider?
I couldn’t believe it and asked again. Fang Ying sighed again, and from her expression, it was clear there were many things about this situation that I still didn’t understand.
