Tycoon: From Rags to Riches

Chapter 117: Chapter 114: Extreme Pressure

"Beg me!"

As those two words left Gu Heng’s lips, Jiang Ruan’s eyes slowly widened.

What?

’I already agreed to keep you company, I even agreed to go all the way!’

’And you still want me to beg you?!’

Bastard...

’This is just too much!’

Jiang Ruan was stunned by Gu Heng’s shamelessness, her breathing growing ragged with anger.

"In your dreams!"

Facing Gu Heng’s escalating demands, it was as if Jiang Ruan had forced those three words through clenched teeth.

"In my dreams?"

Gu Heng just chuckled nonchalantly and suddenly released his right hand. "I’ll have the housekeeper send you back to your room. We’ll see each other in the dining hall tomorrow morning. You can catch up with your old classmate then."

With that, Gu Heng turned to leave.

In the distance, Han Yijia’s eyes lit up the moment she saw Gu Heng turn around.

The head that had been resting on her fair, tender arms lifted instantly.

Seeing Gu Heng about to walk away without a shred of hesitation, and then glancing at the eagerly waiting Han Yijia, Jiang Ruan instinctively called out to stop him. "Wait..."

Gu Heng heard her and stopped, but he didn’t turn around.

"Please..."

Jiang Ruan’s face flushed. The words she had once said to Gu Heng over two months ago were now coming back like a boomerang, hitting her squarely.

Hearing that nearly inaudible sound from Jiang Ruan, the corner of his mouth, hidden from her view, was twitching with a smile that was harder to suppress than the recoil on Zhou Yanzu’s rifle.

Suppressing his amusement, he turned back around.

"Louder."

"I didn’t quite hear you."

Gu Heng looked at Jiang Ruan, whose head was buried so low it nearly touched her chest, and spoke again in a detached voice.

"Please...!"

Once a defensive line is breached, the second time is much easier.

Faced with Gu Heng’s demand, Jiang Ruan fell silent for a few seconds before repeating the word, much louder this time.

"Lift your head. Look me in the eyes and say it."

Still not satisfied, Gu Heng made a new demand.

Jiang Ruan took a deep breath and slowly raised her head.

Her beautiful eyes were shimmering with unshed tears. Gu Heng was truly bullying her terribly.

"Please!"

"Please!"

"Please!"

"Is that enough?"

Jiang Ruan tilted her head up slightly, looking directly into Gu Heng’s eyes. Like a pouting little girl, she repeated "Please!" several times, each one louder than the last.

Gu Heng looked at her reddened eyes and gently brushed away the moisture with the back of his index finger.

"Beg me..."

Gu Heng raised his other arm, once again wrapping it around Jiang Ruan’s slender waist after more than two months, pulling her entire body against his. He whispered in her ear, "for what?"

Gu Heng had just gotten out of the pool, his powerful upper body bare. Now, held in his arms, feeling the warmth radiating from his body and smelling his unique scent, Jiang Ruan felt as if she had been transported back to that one night.

Moreover, faced with Gu Heng’s overwhelming, coercive presence, Jiang Ruan’s legs clamped together tightly, and her already flushed face was tinged with an unusual, feverish blush.

"Hm?"

"Beg me for what?"

Gu Heng gazed at Jiang Ruan’s face, which was flushed a tantalizing red. He tilted her chin up; the more shy she was and the more she avoided his gaze, the more he wanted to make her look him in the eyes.

Under Gu Heng’s intense pressure, Jiang Ruan finally broke. Her soft pink lips parted, and a single, barely audible word escaped.

"Hm?"

"What did you say?"

"I can’t quite hear you."

"Beg me for what?"

Gu Heng’s left arm, wrapped around Jiang Ruan’s waist, tightened slightly, pressing their bodies even closer together.

Jiang Ruan’s breathing grew more rapid. Suddenly, she threw her arms around Gu Heng’s, pressed her soft pink lips to his ear, and spoke that word again, clearly this time.

At the same time, her legs tensed to their absolute limit as an indescribably intense sensation washed over her like a tidal wave, causing a fine sheen of sweat to break out across her body.

Having received a satisfactory answer, Gu Heng kept his left arm around Jiang Ruan’s slim waist, slid his right arm under the crook of her knees, and swept her up in a princess carry.

"As you wish..."

Gu Heng said to Jiang Ruan before glancing back at Wang Yan, who was still playing hide-and-seek in the water with his many "concubines." He decided not to disturb the man’s amusement.

He turned and gestured to the female housekeeper nearby. She immediately understood and came forward as Gu Heng instructed, "Let President Yan know that I’m heading back to my room to rest. I’ll call him when I wake up tomorrow."

"Of course, Chairman Gu."

The housekeeper bowed. "I will see you out."

Gu Heng grunted in acknowledgment. Then, still carrying Jiang Ruan, he walked straight toward the suite’s exit and disappeared from the sight of the other women.

The other girls watched Gu Heng leave with Jiang Ruan, their faces showing a hint of regret. However, they all had good attitudes and quickly recovered.

After all, they weren’t the type to be delusional about their own standing. Jiang Ruan’s looks and figure were undeniable; anyone could see she was in a different league and had completely overshadowed them.

They had harbored a sliver of hope, thinking that perhaps Chairman Gu had grown tired of his usual gourmet delicacies and wanted to try some street food for a change.

But it turned out Chairman Gu’s tastes were quite particular.

The girls sighed with emotion, but after adjusting their mindsets, they went back to singing, dancing, and drinking, fully embracing the philosophy of "if life is going to screw you, and you can’t fight back, you might as well enjoy it."

Only Han Yijia, still in the pool, felt like her world was collapsing.

Are you kidding me?

’Are you messing with me?’

’You told me to wait for you here, and I’ve been soaking in the water for so long I’m practically waterlogged, but you just up and leave with Jiang Ruan?’

’What’s the meaning of this?’

’Was I just a part of your little game?’

’Or were you two just using me as a sex toy?’

Han Yijia’s mind completely shattered.

To think she had worked so hard all night only to end up with not so much as a single hair from Gu Heng.

’She must be so smug right now, right?’

’She’s definitely laughing her ass off at me, isn’t she?’

’All my elaborate efforts were no match for one of her simple little tricks.’

At this thought, Han Yijia nearly ground her teeth to dust.

She climbed out of the pool, and the evening breeze made her shiver.

She picked up her phone and saw many unread messages on the screen.

Most of them were from her pilot boyfriend.

A smaller portion of the unread messages were from her numerous simps and backup plans.

His flight had just landed safely a short while ago. When he’d messaged her, she had been... playing with Gu Heng’s balls.

As the saying goes, comparisons are odious. After experiencing Gu Heng, she now found her boyfriend completely dissatisfying no matter how she looked at him.

Han Yijia picked up her phone and sent him a few perfunctory replies.

Just then, the housekeeper who had just seen Gu Heng out returned from outside the suite.

Seeing this, Han Yijia’s expression changed, and she quickly walked over to the housekeeper.

"Hello, excuse me."

Han Yijia looked at her with hopeful eyes. "Before Chairman Gu left, did he happen to mention anything about me?"

"I’m afraid not."

"Chairman Gu left no such instructions."

The housekeeper smiled faintly. After her polite reply, she walked around Han Yijia and headed toward Wang Yan.

Her hopes shattered, Han Yijia was left completely crestfallen.

Who would have thought that after she went to the trouble of luring the goalie away, the striker would just disappear!

FML!

I want a refund!

PS: Don’t worry, Han Yijia will get hers later, I definitely won’t leave her out. Also, could I ask my dear patrons for your monthly votes? We’re about to get pushed out of tenth place!
