Chapter 4: Don’t Play Dead
Proofread by He Li
Hearing Gong Siming’s voice of questioning, Si Wan feels ridiculous: from what position is he questioning her?
“It’s none of your business. Just take care of your own little lover!”
After her words, Si Wan goes off by herself, leaving Gong Siming gnashing his teeth in anger.
Manager Zhang, the head of the Repluse Bay joint project which is under negotiating, is about forty years old but has a bald head already, just like the “Mediterranean Sea”.
In the business circle, everyone knows that Zhang loves beauty. When seeing Si Wan who is very pretty, Manager Zhang immediately shows his welcome, “Director Si, nice to meet you.” In the meanwhile, his fat hands are touching Si Wan’s small ones.
Si Wan smiles with her composure maintained and then she pulls her hand back by pulling out the chair. “Manager Zhang, glad to meet you.”
During the talk, a person of good sense offers his seat which is near Manager Zhang to Si Wan. Manager Zhang has been gallantly urging Si Wan to drink: “Director Si is really young and promising, for a joint project as big as Repluse Bay, you can still deal with ease. I admire you very much.”
While talking, he approaches Si Wan slowly, with his stubby arm putting around Si Wan’s shoulder, he proposes: “For our cooperation in future, tonight let’s drink to heart’s content.”
Everyone on the table knows that although Si Wan is the young hostess of the Gong Family, Gong Siming hates her a lot, so she is in name only.
Xiaoyu tries to mediate at once, “Manager Zhang, Director Si doesn’t handle alcohol anymore and she has already drunk …”
“What?” Hearing this, Manager Zhang’s smiling face changes at once: “Just a few glasses of liquor, Director Si still wants to reject? It seems that the sincerity for cooperation of Gongshi Group is not that enough!”
Cooperation is more important!
Reaching a hand on Xiaoyu’s leg to steady herself, Si Wan gives Xiaoyu a conciliatory pat; with a smile on her face, she then lifts her glass and empties it at one draught: “Manager Zhang, I pardon your forgiveness. It’s my pleasure to drink with you.”
One glass after another, being possessed by sexual desire, Manager Zhang deliberately piles Si Wan with liquor, and Si Wan has no other choice but to drink continuously.
Xiaoyu is so anxious, but dare not disturb the situation. Her eyes set on Gong Siming who is not far away and is whispering with Han Jingjing in his arm.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Humph!
Although Gong Siming is here, definitely he will not help Director Si.
Xiaoyu rises quietly and hopes to find Liu Qing to come for help.
Han Jingjing and Gong Siming are indeed whispering. Han Jingjing is lying right near Gong Siming’s ears, laughing in a soft tone, “Boss Gong, look, Director Si is piled with drink now; she looks so lonely and pitiful.”
Gong Siming glances at the “Mediterranean Sea”, who puts his hand on Si Wan’ s shoulder; he is so adulatory that his whole body seems stuck to the woman.
Gong Siming kneads the slim waist of Han Jingjing with his fingers, showing no intention to help Si Wan. He continues to flirt with the woman in his arm and says disdainfully: “Let her alone.”
Si Wan doesn’t handle alcohol well and soon becomes dizzy. People beside see clearly the dirty mind of the “Mediterranean Sea”, plus that Gong Siming has no reaction to meddle, so they keep proposing toasts to Si Wan.
Influenced by alcohol, Si Wan gradually feels senseless.
“Director Si has such a good capacity for alcohol.” Seeing Si Wan’s blurred sight and unclear mind, the “Mediterranean Sea” leans over to take advantage of her, with his big hands touching along her waist line.
“Hmm…” Although she is dizzy, Si Wan has not yet become unconscious. With the sensitive part of her waist being rubbed by the man, she quickly stands up to stop that and covers her mouth to prevent vomiting. “I… Hmm… Excuse me, I have to go to the restroom.”
Struggling to stand up with an effort, Si Wan stumbles to the restroom and splashes a handful of cold water on her face; her head feels slightly comfortable then, but her mind remains muddled.
Covering the uncomfortable part of her stomach, she goes out of the restroom. At the moment she lifts her head, she runs into the beer belly of the man, “What’s the matter, Director Si? Let me see…”
The “Mediterranean Sea” looks filthy. Putting one of his arms around Si Wan’s waist, he starts to touch her body randomly. A mist explodes in Si Wan’s head, and the alcohol paralyzes her nerves; at the moment, she just wants to go back as early as possible, subconsciously she is afraid that something wrong may happen, “Hmm… Manager Zhang, let’s talk outside.”
Pushing Manager Zhang away, Si Wan is about to go. However, a hot air gushes up from her stomach to her head, and the influence of the alcohol slowly comes up, which makes her steps obviously unsteady.
Finding that she could hardly stand firm with sober mind, the “Mediterranean Sea” grasps her waist and drags her back to his arms: “We don’t need to go outside. Here are you and me only; we can talk about whatever we want.”
He smiles with a wretched appearance and drags Si Wan to the restroom: “Director Si, you are so beautiful that you can talk anything with me.”
With a messy mind, Si Wan unconsciously refuses his hands and his kisses, but Manager Zhang won’t let go of the beauty in his arms so easily, so he pulls her with all of his strength.
“Ah…” With Manager Zhang’s powerful pull, Si Wan slips and falls down on the floor. Under the influence of alcohol, she completely faints. The “Mediterranean Sea” is stunned at first and then he grins: “This is really help from heaven. Now, I can do whatever I want!”
Pulling the fainted Si Wan into the restroom, he first locks the door from inside and then squats down to untie Si Wan’s clothes. The lust in his eyes is burning.
Staring at the lying body and gradually revealed white skin, the “Mediterranean Sea” takes off his clothes quickly and rushes to kiss on the face of the unconscious Si Wan, which makes her whole face covered with saliva.
With a “bang”, the door of the restroom suddenly falls down and nearly hits the “Mediterranean Sea”. He is suddenly scared and his lust nearly fades away in a moment.
“Who… who are you?” Wearing a royal-blue suit, the man outside has a high figure and long legs, and his handsome face and imposing manner combine together; and his eyes follow with Si Wan who lies on the floor, which makes Manager Zhang clench his teeth.
Although Gong Siming is the CEO of the Gongshi Group, in the business circle people all know that he will not be present unless on some important occasions.
As for Manager Zhang in terms of his position, there is no such privilege for him to see Gong Siming. If it weren’t for the Repluse Bayjoint project, in which Zhang finds himself a channel of cooperation, he might not even be able to meet with Si Wan.
Having no idea of the man’s identity, Manager Zhang becomes bold in face of woman’s beauty. Pulling up his pants, he shouts angrily: “Damn you, don’t you have eyes? Get out of here now!”
Gong Siming glances at the unconscious woman with a sullen face and he consoles himself silently: I just don’t want the fame of the Gong family to be tarnished, so I follow her.
Manager Zhang curses and comes to push Gong Siming, but is kicked out by the man. As born in a family with military and political background, the fighting capacity of Gong Siming can be considered as level SSS +. Without big action, he beats the “Mediterranean Sea” all into pieces.
“Get out of here.” With a face like the King of Hell, Gong Siming stands high and steps on Manager Zhang’s fat filthy hands. Manager Zhang is severely beaten, so he flees in a hurry when hearing the words.
Gong Siming is stiff for a while and then reluctantly looks at Si Wan who is dizzy and unconscious. He is prepared to move his footsteps, turn around and leave. But after reconsideration, he thinks that it is hard to justify himself if mother asks him the situation after the party.
Taking a look at his long and powerful hands, he withdraws his sight on Si Wan expressionlessly.
His cold eyes turn around, and finally he comes to the corner of cleaning tools where mops and rags are placed in the bucket.
Gong Siming takes away the hard brush randomly, regardless of what it is used for. He turns around and squats in front of Si Wan. With a disdainful glimpse at her bare upper body, his sight moves slightly. Then he lifts her dress with the brush, which covers her white and full chest.
“Si Wan, stop playing dead.” Half squatting on the ground, with his eyebrows rising tightly, he reluctantly reaches out to scratch her face with the brush until her white and tender face turns red; after that he suddenly resorts to a ruthless manner of stabbing her in the chest.
“Wake up, don’t play dead!” Using brush, Gong Siming wakes up Si Wan in an extremely horrible way. Being immersed with the breath of alcohol from Si Wan, the disdain in his eyes turns more and more clear.
“Hmm…”
A strange smell wakes up Si Wan and her eyebrows frown tightly; it’s hard for her to open her eyes thoroughly due to her dizziness; but right after she opens her eyes, the handsome face of Gong Siming which is hated by both man and God appears before her.
That’s the man she’s dreaming of.
“Ming…” With the influence of alcohol lingering on, Si Wan cannot tell what is happening. Feeling surprised, she sits up with a blushing face and suddenly…
When Gong Siming is totally unprepared…
She throws herself into his arms like a jumping rabbit. “Ming, it’s really you.”
