Chapter 29: Chapter 29: You’re Giving Up Resistance? Aren’t You Afraid I’ll Really Ruin You?

"Do you have a death wish, meddling this much? How many times do I have to say it before you get it? My business is not your place to interfere!!!"

Jiang Yunnuan grew instantly irritable at the mention of it.

’Could she really be blamed for this?’

She had only asked that guy to sleep with her to test his limits. But who would have thought he’d agree instantly, without a moment’s hesitation?

’What was she supposed to do?’

"But the Contract Termination isn’t a matter for you alone. I have the right to be involved."

"Then you can relax. Nothing will affect the Contract Termination three months from now. Besides, Jun Yao himself doesn’t care, so why are you so concerned? Don’t tell me... you like him?"

As she finished speaking, an expression of dawning comprehension spread across Jiang Yunnuan’s face. A wicked glint, the kind one gets from shipping a couple, appeared in her eyes.

"If you really like him, you should just say so! I’m not against the idea of giving him back to you!"

The words nearly made Si Xie sick to his stomach. His face turned ashen as he looked at her, his voice a mixture of disgust and fury.

"Jiang Yunnuan, how dare you spout such nonsense? Do you have a death wish?"

"Well, your attitude is what’s so misleading. Why blame me? If you don’t like him, then why are you so invested in what happens between him and me?"

’This guy is like gum on a shoe—impossible to shake off. And he’s always looking for a fight.’ It was impossible to ignore him. Jiang Yunnuan was getting sick and tired of it. She let out a cold snort and fearlessly pressed on.

"What I do with him has nothing to do with you, right? Or... do you like *me*?"

’That’s right. I’m being disgusting on purpose. Who told him to be so relentless?’

’He brought this on himself!’

"You’re not even asleep and you’re already dreaming?"

He sneered, his gaze icy with disgust. Every word dripped with contempt and ridicule.

"Just look at yourself. You’re ugly, wicked, and ignorant. You grovel before men who already have a Contract Master. You have no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Who could possibly like you? If I hadn’t been forcibly assigned to you, I wouldn’t have given you a second glance my entire life..."

Hearing this, Jiang Yunnuan was instantly seething.

"Fine, fine, fine! You won’t give me a second glance your entire life, I get it. Now can you let me go?"

"Just make sure you do!"

He narrowed his eyes and flung her away. The force was so strong that Jiang Yunnuan nearly stumbled and fell.

But she wasn’t the type to take an insult lying down. After regaining her balance, she gritted her teeth and dusted off the spot where he’d grabbed her. Then, she raised her foot and stomped hard on his a few times before turning and heading upstairs.

’Damn it! He was the one pestering and grabbing me. What right did he have to shove me away with such disgust? Does he really think I’m a pushover?’

「Upstairs.」

Hearing the footsteps, Jun Yao turned to see Jiang Yunnuan storm in, her face dark and unapproachable.

She didn’t spare him a single glance as she angrily kicked off her shoes and climbed into bed.

’She’s got quite a temper!’

Jun Yao’s brow twitched. He walked over to the side of the bed and asked in a low voice, "Where should I sleep?"

’Can’t he see I’m angry? How dare he come and poke the bear?’

Jiang Yunnuan decided to unreasonably take her anger out on him.

"Didn’t I tell you to sleep with me? Why are you still asking?"

She suddenly hooked an arm around his neck, forcefully pulling him down onto the bed. Pinning him, she straddled his waist and began tugging at the obnoxious bathrobe.

A flicker of shock crossed Jun Yao’s eyes at the sudden turn of events. When he came to his senses, he reached out and grabbed her troublemaking hands.

"Heh, didn’t we agree that you wouldn’t resist, no matter what I did to you? What, are you trying to go back on your word?"

She narrowed her eyes, sneering at him.

’So this is his limit after all.’

She was about to give up on her plan when the man suddenly let go of her hands, adopting a posture that said he was hers for the taking.

Jiang Yunnuan was stunned.

’No way. Is he really willing to go this far?’

’Looks like he knows his place better than the others.’

A malicious smile played on her lips. "Well now, giving up the fight? Aren’t you afraid I’ll actually ravage you?"

The man raised a sharp, handsome eyebrow but said nothing, his lips pressed into a thin line.

His submissive demeanor greatly pleased Jiang Yunnuan, making her completely forget her earlier frustrations.

"Don’t worry. You’re so obedient and compliant, I wouldn’t have the heart to ravage you. However, I do need to get some leverage..."

’Only with some leverage can I face him with my head held high in the future.’

’Otherwise, every time she unwillingly remembered embarrassing herself in front of him, she couldn’t help but burn with shame and humiliation.’

With that said, Jiang Yunnuan decisively yanked open his bathrobe, pulled up the camera on her Light Brain, and started furiously snapping pictures of his half-naked, muscular physique from every conceivable angle.

At this, Jun Yao’s brow furrowed, but he made no move to stop her, allowing her to continue.

After several minutes of nonstop picture-taking, Jiang Yunnuan finally stopped.

She opened her photo gallery to look at the pictures she’d just taken and nearly started drooling.

The man in the photos was just lying there casually, yet he exuded a noble and domineering aura. His heroic, ruggedly handsome face was devoid of emotion, yet it was filled with an indescribable Charm.

Through the open bathrobe, his skin was as fine and smooth as jade. His pectoral and abdominal muscles were beautifully shaped—chiseled, full, and firm, as if containing boundless, explosive power.

’Damn, how can one man be this good-looking?’

’Even in a casual pose, he’s tempting enough to make me want to jump him. It’s a sin, really.’

Jiang Yunnuan silently berated herself several times before switching to the video function. She shot several short clips of him before finally rolling off and letting him go.

After saving the freshly-minted photos and videos, she had a sudden pang of conscience and helped him pull his bathrobe shut.

"Alright, we’re done. You can... do whatever. Uh, I mean, you don’t have to sleep in my room. There are plenty of other rooms upstairs, just pick one."

The more she tested him, the more uncertain she became of his limits. Jiang Yunnuan had a faint feeling that even if she had truly intended to sleep with him, he would have submitted without question.

’What terrifying self-control must he possess to remain so calm through all this?’

Jiang Yunnuan had once again witnessed just how formidable this man was. She didn’t dare test him any further, afraid she would be the one to lose if she wasn’t careful.

She couldn’t afford to play his game, which meant she could never win against him.

’So, this test of his limits ends here.’

After she spoke, she avoided looking at the man’s expression. She pulled back the covers, slid into bed, and sent her consciousness into the system to check her sign-in rewards.

She had received double the rewards today, and there were so many different kinds that she hadn’t had time to inventory them all yet.

’Heh, giving up already?’

The man turned his head to look at her, only to see her feigning sleep with her eyes closed. A dark glint flashed through his pale gold eyes.

He straightened his clothes and was getting up from the bed to leave when, suddenly, his wrist was seized. The woman who had been feigning sleep had opened her eyes at some point and was now lunging toward him, a strange look on her face.
