"Long time no see, Sun Haoran."
Su Yan's voice was sweet like honey yet sharp as ice.
I stared at her, my heart ablaze.
"What exactly do you want to play at?"
She feigned innocence, her crimson lips almost brushing against my ear, her warm breath sending shivers down my neck.
"I see you becoming more successful, yet I can no longer understand you."
As soon as she spoke those words, the gazes of the surrounding guests swept over us like searchlights—curious, scrutinizing, and amused. Their eyes stripped me bare.
A jolt ran through me; this woman was still as skilled in her games as ever.
She released her arm from mine, smiled gracefully, and turned away. The shimmering silver gown hugged her slender waist and accentuated her curves perfectly, causing the men in the room to collectively gasp.
Su Yan seemed oblivious to the hungry stares as she sauntered over to the Champagne Tower, picked up a glass, and gently swirled it. Yet her eyes occasionally darted toward me, her teasing demeanor reminiscent of a fox roasting over a fire.
"Look at this woman; she's absolutely stunning!"
Whispers floated around me, and the brothers beside me were left dumbfounded, their eyes wide with disbelief.
"Hao Ran Brother, your ex-girlfriend... this is too explosive!"
My mind was a chaotic mess, like a car careening out of control. I wanted to hit the brakes, but my foot refused to listen.
Su Yan's presence undoubtedly added fuel to the fire of this party.
She raised her glass and gave me a distant toast, a playful smile curling at the corners of her lips, as if to say: Do you think this is the end?
At that moment, a cool voice suddenly interrupted.
"Sister, what a coincidence."
My heart skipped a beat; that voice belonged to none other than Su Yu.
I turned to see Su Yu striding toward me in a fiery red short skirt, even more striking than Su Yan's bright silver outfit.
Unlike Su Yan, who put on airs, she walked straight up to me and linked her arm with mine.
The softness and warmth of her arm made my heart race.
"Hao Ran Brother, I've been looking for you for a long time."
Su Yu's gaze was a mix of playful annoyance and undeniable dominance.
As soon as she spoke, the crowd erupted in whispers, all eyes on us, filled with gossip and curiosity.
Su Yan's smile froze on her face, her fingers tightening around the champagne glass.
"Xiao Yu, what are you doing?"
Su Yu ignored her completely, pressing herself closer to me. A sweet fragrance enveloped me, making my thoughts swirl.
She leaned in close to my ear, whispering softly like lovers sharing secrets.
"Hao Ran Brother, I truly like you."
Her voice was soft, yet every word struck like a bolt of electricity to my heart.
I was stunned, my mind blank.
She actually confessed to me in front of so many people, right in front of her sister?
Su Yu looked up, her gaze alluring but her tone incredibly serious.
"I'm with you not for money or status, but simply because..."
She paused, casting a complex glance at Su Yan.
"Simply because you are the only one who makes me feel real."
Her fingers gently brushed against my chest, the warmth of her touch seeping through my thin shirt, sending shivers down my spine.
I felt as if my breath was about to stop, trapped in an invisible web spun by her words.
The murmurs around us grew louder, buzzing like a swarm of bees.
Su Yan could no longer hold back; she strode up to us, her face pale with anger.
"Su Yu, have you lost your mind?"
Su Yu smirked defiantly, tightening her grip on my arm.
"Sister, why hide your feelings for someone?"
The eyes of the two sisters met in the air, sparks flying as if they could ignite the entire venue.
I stood between them, feeling torn and overwhelmed, as if smoke were rising from my head.
"Su Yu, what exactly do you want to do?"
I whispered, trying to pull away from her arm, but she clung to me like a vine, tightening her grip.
She leaned close to my ear and whispered, "Hao Ran Brother, haven't you realized? All your successes are gradually pushing you deeper into a whirlpool."
"I just want to help you, to pull you out of this quagmire."
Her voice was incredibly seductive, like the whisper of a devil, making me feel dizzy.
I looked into her eyes, where there was affection, calculation, and a hint of something deeper that I couldn't comprehend.
At that moment, in the crowd, Deng Yufeng stood in the corner, his eyes hidden behind sunglasses gleaming with a cold light.
He held a glass of red wine, a barely perceptible smirk playing at the corners of his mouth.
"Sun Haoran, you really are as foolish as ever."
Deng Yufeng stared at me coldly, as if I were already his prey, just waiting for him to gently pull the trigger.
He raised his phone and took a picture of me, his fingertip lightly tapping as if sending the photo to someone specific.
"This good show has just begun."
I watched the two women in front of me, engaged in a fierce verbal duel, while the buzzing whispers around me filled my ears. A sense of overwhelming confusion and crisis enveloped my heart.
I thought I had gained wealth and status, but now it seemed I had merely jumped into a larger pit of fire.
My rational mind told me that the appearance of these two sisters was anything but simple. Their confessions and disputes felt like a meticulously staged performance, and I was nothing more than the "leading man" thrust onto the stage.
I felt an unprecedented chaos within me, as if two forces were tearing me apart—one half filled with desire, the other with caution.
"Hao Ran Brother, come with me. I'll take you away from here."
Su Yu moved closer to me, her warm breath brushing against my neck, causing my entire body to stiffen.
"Leave? Where to?"
My voice trembled slightly; I couldn't tell if it was from fear or if she had completely awakened the desires buried deep within me.
Su Yu didn't answer directly; instead, she flashed me a sly smile, her eyes brimming with ambiguity and seduction.
"To a place where it's just the two of us."
