Chapter 188: Chapter 188: You’re Getting More and More Annoying

With Wang Chenning blocking her view, Yang Xiaofei didn’t realize how exposed she was. She didn’t resist his intimate gesture, simply snorting indignantly. "My fiancé was just paraded around on social media as another woman’s boyfriend. Do you really think I’d be in a good mood?"

"This isn’t like you at all, President Yang!" Wang Chenning chuckled, stroking her hair. "When something like this happens, shouldn’t you be doing everything in your power to crush your rival and emerge victorious?"

"Who do you think you are?" Yang Xiaofei angrily slapped his hand away and turned toward the stairs. "If you think we’re going to fight over you, you can dream on!"

"But isn’t that what’s happening right now?" Unfazed, Wang Chenning followed her up the stairs. "I wonder who was just making all those jealous remarks!"

"Wang Chenning!" Yang Xiaofei suddenly spun around on the staircase and said angrily, "Didn’t you promise me..."

Wang Chenning hadn’t expected her to stop and turn so suddenly. Unable to halt his momentum, he crashed right into her.

Yang Xiaofei instantly lost her balance, crying out as she tumbled backward.

Quick as a flash, Wang Chenning caught her by the waist, pulling her straight into his embrace.

After catching her, Wang Chenning chuckled. "Did you do that on purpose? Weren’t you afraid you’d fall on the stairs and I’d see the secrets hidden under that robe of yours?"

"You are so infuriating!" Wang Chenning’s smug grin suddenly made Yang Xiaofei furious. She reached out and gave him a vicious pinch, then opened her mouth to bite him. "You’re disgusting!"

Wang Chenning quickly tried to dodge, but Yang Xiaofei was relentless.

All the frustration that had been building up all evening erupted in that single moment.

Once she bit down on Wang Chenning’s arm, she applied some real force, only letting go when he cried out in pain.

Seeing the two neat rows of teeth marks she’d left on Wang Chenning’s arm, Yang Xiaofei finally felt a bit of satisfaction.

"Hmph. If you bully me again, I’ll bite your whole arm off!"

Wang Chenning gritted his teeth. He suddenly swept Yang Xiaofei up, hoisted her over his shoulder, and, ignoring her struggles and shrieks, hauled her into the bedroom.

Once inside, he kicked the door shut, tossed Yang Xiaofei onto the bed, and loomed over her.

Yang Xiaofei instinctively tensed up, but then immediately relaxed, looking up at Wang Chenning with a playful smirk. "Are you so used to fighting that you just want to bully everyone you meet?"

In that state, Yang Xiaofei was the very picture of seduction. The rise and fall of her chest as she breathed was enough to drive a man mad.

Wang Chenning stared at the utterly bewitching woman beneath him, his jaw tight. "Believe it or not," he said through gritted teeth, "I can ravish you so thoroughly you won’t be able to get out of bed for days."

"Then do it!" Yang Xiaofei looked at him with utter disdain. "If you can bring yourself to hit a woman, then go right ahead!"

’I thought she’d evolved into a seasoned player, but it looks like she’s just gotten dumber!’ Wang Chenning suddenly lowered his head and bit the fabric of her nightgown.

Yang Xiaofei shrieked, instinctively grabbing his head as she struggled frantically. "Wang Chenning, you pervert, let go! You’ve lost your mind! That hurts..."

When Wang Chenning finally let go after a few seconds, Yang Xiaofei scrambled to cover her chest, her face turning scarlet. "You’re a complete degenerate..."

"Whose fault is it for not wearing anything underneath? You were practically challenging me!" Wang Chenning gave Yang Xiaofei that infuriating, smug grin. "I’m no saint, you know."

"I called you here for my treatment, not for you to harass me!" Yang Xiaofei said, her face still flushed as she looked at him. "If you’re going to kiss me, then get it over with. I want to go to bed early!"

"In your dreams. I’m not going to kiss you!" Wang Chenning gave her a disdainful look and slowly licked his lips. "Believe it or not, I can get you so worked up you won’t be able to sleep at all tonight."

"Get off me!" Yang Xiaofei flew into a rage born of humiliation. She gave Wang Chenning a hard shove and swung her leg up to kick him.

Wang Chenning rolled with the shove, getting to his feet. He caught her foot mid-air and then deliberately lifted her leg even higher.

"I’m about to get a good look at everything!" Wang Chenning continued to tease Yang Xiaofei. "Let me guess if you’re wearing any little secrets under there!"

With a shriek, Yang Xiaofei sat bolt upright, trying to pull her leg back.

But in her haste to cover her legs, she forgot about everything else, giving Wang Chenning a generous eyeful.

"Well, they’ve both said hello now!" Wang Chenning released her shapely leg and pointed toward her chest. "At this rate, it would be a crime against you if nothing major happened tonight!"

With another shriek, Yang Xiaofei clutched her chest and, with surprising speed, yanked the covers up and dove underneath.

Her face flushed, she peeked out at Wang Chenning, her glare a mixture of anger and allure. "I know you must have done something to me to make me change like this. I wouldn’t be acting this way otherwise!"

"Sharp as ever!" Wang Chenning then repeated the same theory he had explained to Wu Ziyue a little while ago.

Hearing his explanation, Yang Xiaofei let out a soft sigh.

"So after the treatment is over, what will happen to my body? Or... if I stop the treatment now, will I go back to being my old self?"

"If the treatment continues for several months, your body’s stress response will remain at a fairly high level, and your hormone production will be very active. This will keep your immune system strong, and you’ll look younger, more beautiful, and more vibrant overall. If you stop the treatment now, these effects will last for a while before you slowly return to your previous state. As for whether you’ll go back to being that ice queen you were before... I can’t say. After all, that has more to do with your state of mind."

The moment she heard Wang Chenning call her an ice queen again, Yang Xiaofei’s anger flared. She grabbed a throw pillow from beside her and hurled it at him. "How dare you still say that! You can just die!"

Wang Chenning caught the pillow, tossed it aside, and then lay down next to her, his tone turning serious. "Actually, I suggested this from the very beginning—that we should have someone else present during your treatments. When your body is in a heightened state of stress and your hormones are running high, certain... instinctual urges are bound to surface. After all, the treatment involves physical contact. That kind of intimacy can easily break down a person’s psychological defenses. Besides," he added, his tone shifting, "I’m so handsome that women tend to swoon when they see me."

"I’ve never met anyone as shameless as you!" Blushing, Yang Xiaofei pushed him away, grabbed the throw pillow again, and stuffed it between them. "I would never let a third person see me like this, man or woman!"

Wang Chenning gave her a teasing look. "So does that mean you’re exclusively mine to see?"

"Why are you getting more and more insufferable!" Yang Xiaofei pinched him a few more times for good measure, then suddenly shoved him flat on his back. Before he could react, she threw herself on top of him and bit down on his lips.

She paid no mind to the fact that her robe had once again fallen wide open...
