Tycoon: From Rags to Riches

Chapter 116: Chapter 113: Beg Me

He glanced over. Wang Yan was in the water, playing blind man’s bluff with his many "consorts," their joyous laughter echoing endlessly.

If a video of this scene were uploaded to the internet, it would probably be taken down in a heartbeat. It was just too detrimental to social harmony.

Looking further away, Gu Heng saw Jiang Ruan sitting all by herself at the bar. She was propping her head up with her right hand, looking somewhat forlorn.

Seeing this, Gu Heng casually set his glass on a floating tray and strode toward the edge of the pool.

When Han Yijia saw Gu Heng suddenly pull away—and seemingly head straight for Jiang Ruan—a flicker of anxiety crossed her eyes.

"Chairman Gu, where are you going...?"

As she spoke, Han Yijia tried to wrap her arms around Gu Heng.

"Wait for me here."

Gu Heng raised his arm and casually shoved Han Yijia aside.

The pool floor was already slick, and Gu Heng, having had a few drinks, couldn’t quite control his strength. The shove sent Han Yijia stumbling, and she nearly fell completely into the water.

"Gu..."

Watching Gu Heng walk away without a backward glance, Han Yijia felt an inexplicable sense of indignation and grievance.

’Men were usually simps for her,’ she thought. ’No one had ever treated her like this.’

Even her boyfriend, a pilot who made millions a year, had to coax her with sweet nothings the moment she was the least bit unhappy. He was constantly buying her gifts to keep her happy.

And today, for the first time, she was the one actively throwing herself at a man.

But just now...

Gu Heng had actually shoved her!

Han Yijia stared at the smooth, defined muscles of Gu Heng’s back and couldn’t stop herself from biting down hard. The more he treated her this way, the more she wanted him.

And for some reason, as she replayed the memory of his casual dismissal, she found him inexplicably handsome—completely different from any man she had ever known.

"Hmph..."

’Fine, I’ll wait!’

’Just don’t give me the chance. Otherwise, I’ll drain you dry!’

Han Yijia slapped the water’s surface in frustration. But she quickly composed herself and followed Gu Heng to the edge of the pool. She didn’t get out, however. Just as he’d instructed, she stayed obediently in the water, her eyes fixed on him expectantly.

...

"Give me another."

Jiang Ruan rarely drank. On the rare occasion she did, she would only have a taste, and she almost never got drunk.

But today, all she wanted was to get completely drunk.

The female bartender was happy to oblige Jiang Ruan’s request.

Soon, a fresh margarita was prepared.

Jiang Ruan watched the cocktail slide in front of her. She instinctively reached for it, but someone else’s hand got there first.

Jiang Ruan frowned and her gaze traveled up from the hand.

Strong, broad shoulders were draped with a fresh towel.

His soaking wet hair hung down, still dripping.

The right hand holding the glass had long, slender fingers and well-defined knuckles.

When Jiang Ruan saw it was Gu Heng who had snatched her drink, her pale cheeks puffed out. She turned back to the bartender. "Give me another."

The bartender heard her and instinctively started to move.

But one look at the warning in Gu Heng’s eyes and she froze. She immediately lowered her head and retreated silently to the side, giving the two of them space to talk.

"Here’s your room key."

"I’ll have the butler escort you to your room later."

Gu Heng drained half of the margarita in one go, his tone unyielding.

Seeing that Gu Heng had scared off the bartender, Jiang Ruan had no choice but to face him, her beautiful face flushed.

Suddenly, something caught Jiang Ruan’s attention, and she glanced toward the pool.

Han Yijia was leaning against the edge of the pool, her head resting on her fair, tender arms, a seductive look on her face.

Their gazes met. Han Yijia’s eyes were filled with provocation and amusement, along with the triumphant air of a victor.

That gaze seemed to say, ’Jiang Ruan, your man is amazing.’

That look was enough to shatter Jiang Ruan’s composure.

Jiang Ruan turned back to Gu Heng, asking resentfully, "Are you sleeping with Han Yijia tonight?"

"Mm..."

"That is the plan."

Gu Heng hadn’t expected her to be so direct. He paused for a second before nodding nonchalantly.

"Do you know she has a boyfriend?"

Jiang Ruan pressed on. "She didn’t tell you, did she?"

"She did not."

Gu Heng’s expression suddenly turned serious.

"Well, now you know, so you..."

Seeing his sudden serious expression, Jiang Ruan blinked, a flicker of hope in her beautiful eyes.

"How thrilling. Now I’m looking forward to it even more."

Gu Heng gave his answer, meeting Jiang Ruan’s expectant gaze.

"You..."

Jiang Ruan’s beautiful eyes widened in disbelief. "You know she has a boyfriend, and you still plan to sleep with her?"

"So what?"

"I have a girlfriend, you know."

"So we’re even."

Gu Heng took a sip from his glass, replying unhurriedly.

Seeing his nonchalance, Jiang Ruan seethed with anger.

"You are not allowed to sleep with Han Yijia!"

The alcohol rushing to her head, Jiang Ruan found herself throwing a petulant fit.

"And why not?"

"You won’t sleep with me, but you won’t let anyone else either."

Gu Heng raised an eyebrow. "Are you even being reasonable?"

Jiang Ruan glared. "Do you really need someone to sleep with you? Can’t you sleep by yourself?"

"I can’t."

"Haven’t you heard the saying?"

Gu Heng shrugged. "Good habits are hard to cultivate, and bad habits are easy to form."

Jiang Ruan was speechless. She glared at him, cheeks puffed, her ample chest heaving with indignation.

Gradually, Jiang Ruan’s face grew even redder.

"If I sleep with you tonight, will you not sleep with Han Yijia?"

After a good thirty seconds, Jiang Ruan swallowed her pride and asked, feigning composure.

Hearing this, a smile flickered in the depths of Gu Heng’s eyes.

"Hmm..."

"No."

Gu Heng pretended to think it over seriously before shaking his head. "I’ve given it some thought, and I still think I’ll choose Han Yijia."

"Why?!"

Jiang Ruan was getting emotional. She couldn’t believe that even after she’d offered, he would still choose Han Yijia.

’In terms of looks, body, or aura, Han Yijia isn’t my match in any category.’

"It was a long trip, and I’m a little tired."

"Conveniently, Han Yijia is very thoughtful. She can be fully-automatic."

Gu Heng leaned closer to Jiang Ruan, his eyes glinting. "Can you?"

’Fully-automatic?’

It took Jiang Ruan a few seconds after hearing those two words to understand what Gu Heng meant.

The last time, she had been like a pear blossom in a downpour, passively enduring the violent deluge.

’Besides, in her mind, Gu Heng was a shameless, scumbag asshole who had forced himself on her. How could she possibly be "fully-automatic" for him?!’

Jiang Ruan’s immediate instinct was to refuse. But just as the words reached her lips, she couldn’t resist glancing over at Han Yijia. Seeing that same provocative, mocking gaze, a rush of blood went to her head.

"Fine!"

"I’ll do it!"

With her concession, a fresh wave of humiliation washed over her.

At the same time, that strange physical sensation surged through her body once more, causing her already tightly pressed legs to clench together even more firmly.

Gu Heng looked at Jiang Ruan’s crimson face, but he had no intention of letting her off the hook just yet.

’Today, the timing, the place, and the people are all perfect.’

’If I don’t train her now, when will I? If I don’t tame her now, when will I?’

"Jiang Ruan, do you remember what I told you that night?"

Gu Heng stared into her eyes, his voice low and magnetic.

"What?" Jiang Ruan asked instinctively.

"I said that I would never touch you again unless you begged me to... so..."

As he spoke, he reached out and gently lifted her chin, his gaze deepening.

"Beg me."
