Ming hugged me tightly and kept pushing. My body and his body were close together.
I could feel the light smell of wine in his breath.
He was drunk.
I was nervous, “because I’m not sure...”
“Then you have to tell me, or I will think you don’t trust me, or you are even...” Ming says, “alert.”
Yes, I was actually very alert to him.
I thought I would leave him at first, so I didn’t tell him about it.
But now that we were together, I told him.
I shook my head. “No, I won’t do that in the future.”
Ming’s expression eased a little. He suddenly lowered his head and put the thin lips on my lips and began to kiss me.
His kiss was gentle and slow.
He went deeper.
I was nervous and resistant. I thought he kissed Erin, so I really mind.
But I didn’t want to say. Once I said it, Ming would say he would never touch her again.
After that...
I passively accepted it.
I heard Justin all of a sudden.
Ming stopped. We both looked at him.
Justin said, “go on.”
Then he left.
But we couldn’t go on after he disturbed us.
But when Justin left, Ming looked down at me and his eyes were warm. “Have you thought about it? When are you going to accept me?”
“I...”
“Forget it.” Ming said first, “I know you want to think about it for a while. That kiss just now has given me the answer.”
I lowered my head and didn’t speak.
After that, Ming followed me into the box.
The people in the box were drinking while playing cards.
After the party, Ming and I went out. When I thought it was going to be over, Ming suddenly called Brady in front, “President Well.”
Brady didn’t dare to neglect. He turned and asked, “President Jessop, what can I do for you?”
“I want to take some of your time. Is it convenient?” Ming always spoke politely.
But his identity didn’t allow Brady to refuse.
“Of course.”
Brady nodded and glanced at me. There was a flicker of unease in his eyes.
I guessed he already knew what Ming was going to ask.
Ming and Brady stepped aside. Ming asked directly, “President Well, my girlfriend said that Well Family has a daughter, your sister, who died several years ago.”
“Yes...” When Brady heard him mention it, he looked flustered.
I saw Brady’s forehead seem to be sweating.
“How did she die?” Ming asked as if nothing had happened.
“She...”
Although they were in different fields, people who controlled more capital had more power.
