Cang Ming

Chapter 454 Desperate Times Call for Desperate Measures

Her skin, as cold as ice, was an addiction to Song Xi, who was burning with desire. At this moment, she found an ice mountain to cling to, her hands and feet working together like a koala, holding tightly onto the coolness before her.

Lou Yu Ming found her forwardness a bit overwhelming, considering it had been so long since the last time.

"…Song Xi."

But they were still in the car. Lou Yu Ming restrained Song Xi with his arms, but unexpectedly, she slipped through his grasp and writhed in his embrace.

Lou Yu Ming's breathing grew heavy, his eyes becoming increasingly dangerous.

This was clearly a setup. Shao Cheng tried his best to avert his gaze, but suddenly, the man behind him gasped.

Shao Cheng quickly turned his head to check, only to find Lou Yu Ming's collar pulled open, and Song Xi, clinging to his neck, intimately demanding.

"Stop the car, get out!"

Lou Yu Ming's command was immediate. Shao Cheng turned his head away, slammed on the brakes, and quickly jumped out of the car.

He knew Song Xi had been drugged, but he had never seen her this ravenous before. Now, Lou Yu Ming was in for it.

"Song Xi!"

Inside the car, Lou Yu Ming, with a dark expression, pinned Song Xi beneath him.

The woman moaned and panted, calling his name with hot breaths.

How could any man resist such pleas.

Her provocations made Lou Yu Ming's entire body burn.

He furrowed his brow, his dark eyes like a brewing storm, the corners of his eyes red. After staring at her for a few seconds, he finally took off his jacket, put it on her, pulled her into his arms, and then swiftly struck the back of her neck with a chop.

A wave of pain spread through her body, and then Song Xi lost consciousness.

"Get in the car!" Lou Yu Ming kicked the car door twice.

Shao Cheng's eyes widened. After getting in, he exclaimed, "That fast?"

Lou Yu Ming glared at him. Before Shao Cheng could utter another lewd remark, he cut him off, "Go to a nearby hotel."

Shao Cheng raised an eyebrow. After dropping them off, he couldn't resist saying, "A friendly reminder, have some restraint. While going to a hotel is more effective than a hospital in her condition, she's still a patient."

"Scram!"

Shao Cheng chuckled and then drove away.

Lou Yu Ming booked a presidential suite. By the time they had wrestled through the night, it was almost four in the morning.

After putting Song Xi on the bed, he went to the bathroom to take a shower. When he finished, he discovered Song Xi was gone!

Anxious, he immediately called the front desk, only to suddenly hear the sound of a shower from another bathroom.

Lou Yu Ming wrapped the towel tighter around himself and walked over.

Song Xi was submerged in the water, her face pale.

"Song Xi!"

Lou Yu Ming was furious and immediately pulled her out of the water. "What on earth do you want to do! Are you trying to kill yourself!"

Song Xi's lips were pale, and she trembled, unable to utter a word.

Seeing her like this, Lou Yu Ming felt both angry and heartbroken.

"Just keep causing trouble!"

Lou Yu Ming carried Song Xi back to the bed. He turned up the room temperature and reached for her clothes. To his surprise, Song Xi suddenly cried out, "Don't touch me!"

Lou Yu Ming's brow furrowed. He grabbed her wrist and said angrily, "Look clearly, who is standing in front of you!"

She had clung to him and called his name tenderly in the car, but now she wouldn't let him touch her. What did she want?

After being knocked out by Lou Yu Ming, Song Xi had woken up and regained some clarity.

However, the burning heat within her still surged. She knew her current relationship with Lou Yu Ming, and before their misunderstandings were cleared up, it was best not to have any further entanglements. Otherwise, emotions would get the better of them, and they would never be able to sort things out.

It was always like this. Whenever there was a misunderstanding, after they had been intimate, they would both, with unspoken agreement, never mention it the next day.

But would problems disappear just because they weren't mentioned? No, they would only accumulate, leading to a point of no return. So, this time, Song Xi, despite her suffering, forced herself to maintain control! She would rather resort to physical cooling methods than accept Lou Yu Ming's help.

Lou Yu Ming had no idea what she had been thinking in this short period.

But he was in a bad mood.

She was making a scene late at night instead of sleeping. He should have taken her to the hospital if he had known.

He stared at her coldly for a moment, then, with a darkened expression, went into another room, slamming the door behind him.

Song Xi curled up into a ball on the bed, shivering all over.

The drug was potent. Song Xi thought that after a cold shower, she would feel better, but an hour later, her entire body felt like it was crawling with millions of ants, gnawing at her, causing both pain and torment.

How could this be.

She stumbled out of bed and headed for the bathroom, but as soon as she got up, her legs gave out, and she fell to the floor.

No… Song Xi, you have to stand up!

She suppressed the desire in her heart and was about to get up when she was suddenly lifted into the air. It was Lou Yu Ming.

His crisp, clean scent was like a clear spring at this moment, holding an irresistible allure for Song Xi.

Song Xi resisted, yet couldn't help but want to lean closer.

"I'm giving you another chance," Lou Yu Ming said, his face grim, his tone threatening. "Do you want my help!"

Before the word "no" could leave her lips, her mouth was suddenly sealed.

This kiss seemed to open a small crack within Song Xi. She tilted her head back, actively seeking more, but the next second, he withdrew without a second thought, leaving Song Xi with a bewildered expression.

Lou Yu Ming stared at her glistening lips, his throat bobbing. His expression remained impassive, maintaining a cold and calm demeanor. "Yes, or no?"

He was guiding her to make a choice.

The flames of desire were already spreading throughout Song Xi's body. She instinctively wrapped her arms around Lou Yu Ming's neck. "I... I have a question for you."
