The Next Day

The Next Day

Every morning, Su Mengqi woke up a bit earlier than her classmates. Although she was a girl, she still needed some time to meticulously prepare herself.

She had a premonition that the day she could be accepted by Luo Yao was not far off. As long as she took the initiative and acted more like a woman, Luo Yao would surely fall for her.

Thinking this, Su Mengqi applied her makeup, carefully and methodically. Truthfully, these high-end cosmetics were not easy to acquire, and Su Mengqi had only managed to get her hands on them through her family’s connections.

After finishing her makeup, Su Mengqi looked at herself in the mirror with satisfaction. She was quite pleased with herself. Her family was wealthy, and her assets were ample. Who wouldn’t like a woman with such advantages? Many boys in school pursued her, but she knew they were only after her family’s money. Who knows how many women these boys had been with before?

At the thought of this, Su Mengqi felt a wave of disgust. She shook her head, dismissing the thought, and gathered her school supplies. With the butler’s guidance, she left the house.

As usual, Su Mengqi stood at the subway entrance, waiting for Luo Yao. From her observation, Luo Yao often took a particular subway line and always exited at this station.

……..

Ignoring the stares of students exiting the subway, Su Mengqi continued to wait, but her anticipation grew with each passing moment. Had he changed his subway route? Looking at her gold-patterned watch, Su Mengqi turned and left. If he wasn’t out by now, he must have already arrived at the classroom.

With this thought, Su Mengqi quickly returned to the classroom. Upon entering, she saw her empty seat beside her and fell silent. Was he sick? Su Mengqi couldn’t believe her eyes as she touched the empty seat, hoping to find some trace of Luo Yao’s presence.

Every second without seeing Luo Yao was torture for Su Mengqi. Oh, right! Luo Yao has a sister who goes to the same school. Maybe she could ask her about Luo Yao’s situation. Not seeing Luo Yao filled her with a sense of unease.

Ignoring her classmates’ stares, Su Mengqi stood up and left the classroom. Unknown to her, the person she longed for was already in a predicament.

……..

‘Wuuuh… Where am I?’ Two hours later, Luo Yao opened his eyes, his mind foggy. As he did, a strong smell of disinfectant hit his nose, making him feel uneasy.

‘You’re awake?’ Beside Luo Yao sat a woman in a black business suit. She was tall and had a sharp, alluring appearance, with a hint of coldness that added to her charm. Her eyes were alert, and she addressed the nurse outside the door.

‘Where am I?’ Luo Yao’s head spun, and he tried to reach for it, only to find his hands restrained by an IV.

The woman didn’t respond. Her cold gaze remained fixed on the handsome man in the bed, her expression unreadable.

Seeing no response, Luo Yao slumped back onto the bed, his mind slowly piecing together. He remembered being sold by traffickers, as a s*ave… Luo Yao knew that with his looks, being sold as a s*ave could only mean one thing.

Thinking of this, Luo Yao’s head ached. He barely dared to imagine, as the faces of the women from last night still haunted his memory. They were all older women, and he would rather die than be pressed beneath them.

Luo Yao tried to rub his temples but felt the cold metal of handcuffs against his wrist. He looked at his restrained hand and realized he was a prisoner.

What kind of world is this where the law is so lax? Luo Yao looked out the window, seeing the morning sun. How long had he been out? Just as he was pondering, a figure appeared at the door. The cold woman stood up quickly, bowing her head.

‘Miss.’ Mu Yaochen appeared at the door, her gaze sweeping over the woman who bowed and Luo Yao, who lay on the bed. She gestured toward the door, indicating the woman should leave. The woman nodded and left quietly.

As for Luo Yao, he stared at Mu Yaochen, his mind racing. His instinct told him that this girl, who exuded both youthful energy and mature allure, was the one who had bought him. Mu Yaochen was dressed in a short skirt and black stockings, her long legs accentuated by the outfit. Though Luo Yao was used to seeing such attire, there was something undeniably captivating about the way Mu Yaochen wore it.

Her bust was neither too small nor too large, just right for a perfect fit. Unlike Su Mengqi’s more exaggerated curves, Mu Yaochen’s figure was more subtly alluring.

Why do I always notice a woman’s chest first?

‘Luo Yao, right?’ Mu Yaochen looked at Luo Yao with a playful smile. In this world, most women saw Luo Yao as both alluring and pure. Mu Yaochen, who had intended to be cold and distant, found herself unable to resist his charm. She looked at Luo Yao, her eyes gleaming with a mix of curiosity and desire.

If their positions were reversed, Luo Yao could easily imagine what he would face. If he was truly a trophy, his first time would be sold to the highest bidder.

Mu Yaochen’s mind raced with thoughts, her gaze fixed on Luo Yao’s innocent expression. There was something about him that made her want to tease and taunt him.

Mu Yaochen licked her lips, a wicked smile playing on her face.
