Top Soldier Pursued by a Beauty

Huo Hongyan's attitude toward him was quite good. Besides, she had given him a lavish gift last time just to build a connection. So, Zhao Dong nodded. "Alright, let's go outside."

He turned to the others. "You guys keep having fun. I have something to take care of; I'll be back in a bit."

"Oh?" He Xiao glanced at Huo Hongyan warily. A woman's intuition told her that the way this woman had just looked at Zhao Dong was... off. But He Xiao was too sensible to make a scene. Despite her reluctance, she simply nodded and mumbled, "Okay, Brother Dong. Try to be quick."

"Yeah, don't worry. You all have fun. I doubt anyone will dare to cause trouble here again." With that, Zhao Dong signaled for the DJ to start the music again, and then he left the bar with Huo Hongyan.

Fights and other such drama were nothing new in a bar. When the music kicked back in, the crowd's energy wasn't dampened by the recent commotion at all. Instead, they used the incident as a topic of conversation and partied even harder. This was especially true for He Xiao's group, whose topic of discussion had shifted from celebrity gossip to just how incredibly handsome Zhao Dong was...

「Outside.」

Huo Hongyan dismissed her bodyguards, her eyes narrowing slightly as she looked at Zhao Dong without saying a word.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Zhao Dong felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze.

Huo Hongyan smiled, then suddenly reached out and took his hand. Sticking her tongue out playfully, she asked, "Mr. Zhao, tell me... am I beautiful?"

"Beautiful... of course, you are," Zhao Dong answered, flustered, as he tried to back away.

"I'm not a man-eating tiger. What are you so afraid of?" Huo Hongyan giggled, starting to lean against him.

Startled, Zhao Dong tried to retreat again, only to find his back pressed against her car. Huo Hongyan pressed closer, step by step. Panicking, Zhao Dong raised his hands, accidentally grabbing her smooth thigh.

"Wh-what are you doing?" Huo Hongyan gasped, her face flushing, but she didn't pull away.

Zhao Dong quickly snatched his hand back, but not before he couldn't resist giving her thigh a squeeze.

Smooth! Incredibly smooth! Slender and silky... absolutely top-tier... ahem... top-tier legs!

"I... I didn't mean to..." Zhao Dong, face burning with embarrassment, quickly pushed her away and escaped.

Watching his flustered retreat, Huo Hongyan covered her mouth and chuckled, deciding not to tease him any further.

"Do you need anything else?" Zhao Dong asked awkwardly. "If not, I'm going back inside."

This woman is a real tigress!

"Yes! Of course, I do!" Huo Hongyan said quickly. Faced with such a romantically clueless man, she felt a little helpless and got straight to the point. "Mr. Zhao, do you remember promising to help me inspect some goods?"

"Of course," he nodded.

Huo Hongyan nodded slightly. "My shop is getting a new batch of medicinal herbs tomorrow. I was going to call you then, but what a coincidence that we ran into each other today."

"So, I wanted to ask if you're free tomorrow?" This time, she addressed him more casually. The subtle shift in address, coupled with their little moment just now, made Zhao Dong feel a bit closer to her.

"Sure," Zhao Dong nodded decisively. "I'll see you tomorrow, then." With that, he turned and headed straight back into the bar.

Watching his slightly frazzled figure disappear, Huo Hongyan couldn't stop smiling.

Even though you have quite a few women, you're still so shy. You must be a good man.

She nodded in satisfaction, then got into her car and drove away.

「Back inside the bar.」

Zhao Dong stopped in his tracks, shocked. He saw Bingbing still sitting at their booth, but He Xiao and Mimi were gone! Alarmed, he rushed over. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw both of them passed out on the sofa.

Bingbing stood up awkwardly, her voice tinged with drunkenness. "They drank too much. I'm so sorry..."

Bingbing was clearly an introvert. Without He Xiao and Mimi there, she became stiff and awkward being alone with Zhao Dong.

"Those two really don't know their limits when it comes to drinking," Zhao Dong said with a helpless sigh. He knew He Xiao was a lightweight, but Mimi had clearly drunk too much out of sheer excitement. Bingbing was doing slightly better, but she was swaying unsteadily and looked like she could pass out at any moment.

Staggering to her feet, Bingbing slurred, "Brother Dong, could you... could you please help me get them to my place? I... I don't think I can make it..."

As she spoke, she looked like she was about to throw up. Fortunately, she clutched her stomach and managed to hold it down. Seeing this, Zhao Dong knew he had to agree, no matter how reluctant he was. He made sure Bingbing was steady on her feet and wouldn't fall over, then went over and draped He Xiao's and Mimi's arms over his shoulders, supporting one on each side.

「Ten minutes later.」

The group arrived outside a small villa. Once inside, Zhao Dong immediately eased the two girls onto the sofa.

Bingbing swayed and said, "Brother Dong, n-no... you can't leave them here. They'll catch a cold... C-Could you help me carry them to the bedroom?"

"Alright," Zhao Dong agreed. He tried to carry both of them upstairs, but drunk people are incredibly heavy, and the two girls kept squirming. After several failed attempts to carry them up together, he resigned himself to taking them one by one.

He first carried He Xiao to the upstairs guest room. Then he came back down for Mimi.

Reaching the guest room again, Zhao Dong laid Mimi down on the bed. He took off her shoes and was about to cover her with the blanket. However, she was lying tightly on top of it. He had no choice but to move her legs so he could pull the blanket out from under her.

The moment his hands touched her slender, silk-stockinged legs, a thrilling sensation made it difficult to stop. As he pulled at the blanket, he instinctively gave her legs a few extra caresses.

He finally managed to free the blanket. Just as he leaned over to cover her, Mimi's eyes fluttered open. She gazed at him with a drunken, hazy look, a seductive smile playing on her lips.

She grabbed his collar and, in a swift motion, wrapped her legs around his waist, trapping him.

"Hey, little bro," she whispered, "do my legs feel good?"

"Nice to touch?"

"I..." Zhao Dong panicked.

I was just trying to cop a feel! Who would've thought she'd wake up?!

He was about to stammer out an explanation when Mimi grabbed his hand and placed it back on her thigh.

"Don't worry, little bro, I'm not mad. If you like to touch them... then touch them more... It... it feels good... when you touch me..."

What the hell?! Is this some kind of test for a government official? What official could possibly withstand this temptation?

His hand started to move, seemingly of its own accord, drawing a soft moan from Mimi. His hand was about to travel higher when her legs, which had been wrapped tightly around him, suddenly went limp. The soft, even sound of her breathing filled the air.

Zhao Dong froze.

???

You've got to be kidding me! She actually fell asleep again?
