After the Protagonist Ascended, I Set My Eyes on His Woman - Chapter 37:

Chapter 37: Taking Down Gu Qingning

That sound was all too familiar to her. After all, she had been with Chen Fan for two years and experienced over a dozen battles in bed. The moment she heard that noise, her cheeks flushed, and her body heated up. The night before Chen Fan ascended, they had a wild night together. It had been three months since then. It had been so long, she found herself craving it again.

“I… I want to borrow some money from you.” Gu Qingning’s voice trembled. Her mind was filled with thoughts of that act.

“Talk later. I’m playing poker with Yiyi right now. Miss Gu, do you want to join us?” Li Wanji shamelessly invited.

“Get lost!” Gu Qingning hung up immediately. That bastard was bullying her little sister-in-law again. How disgusting! Poor Yiyi, stuck with that bastard every single day.

After a while, Xie Yourong returned with two cups of milk tea. They strolled a bit more before Gu Qingning said, “I’m going to borrow money from that bastard. You go ahead and head home.”

“You’re going again?” Xie Yourong sounded worried.

“I have no choice. He’s the only one who will lend it to me.”

“Be careful. That guy’s no good. Why don’t we go together?”

“Absolutely not. I’ll go alone. If he does something to me, so be it. But if we both get caught in his trap, it’s over.” Gu Qingning said.

“But…” Xie Yourong still wanted to say something.

“Relax. He won’t do anything to me. If he wanted me, he would’ve made a move the last time. Why wait until now?” Gu Qingning sounded confident. That bastard didn’t dare touch her.

Hearing this, Xie Yourong said no more. “Then I’ll head back. Let me know if anything happens.”

Gu Qingning nodded and found a café to sit and wait. After a while, she called again.

“Same place,” Li Wanji said.

“Okay.” Gu Qingning immediately set off for the Sanctuary Hotel.

Half an hour later, Li Wanji finally appeared.

“CEO Gu is as beautiful as ever. Just one glance and I’m in love.” He couldn’t help but admire her stunning looks, even in a simple outfit. Her tight jeans perfectly accentuated her butt and long legs, and her T-shirt couldn’t hide her ample curves. Her long black hair cascaded down her back, framing her delicate face.

“Just name your terms.” Gu Qingning got straight to the point. She just wanted to get the money quickly to start her business. A few employees were still stationed at the headquarters of Qingcheng International, waiting for their ‘Queen’ to return.

Li Wanji smirked and sat beside her.

“Stay away from me.” Gu Qingning frowned with disgust and shifted her body to distance herself.

“Is this how you act when you’re asking for help?” Li Wanji’s expression darkened. “Seems like you don’t care about reviving Qingcheng International. Fine, goodbye.”

He got up and pretended to leave.

“Don’t you dare!” Gu Qingning panicked and quickly grabbed his arm.

“What exactly do you mean, Miss Gu?” Li Wanji turned to her.

Gu Qingning bit her red lips, hesitated for a few seconds, then pulled him back down to sit. This time, she sat right next to him, their thighs touching intimately.

“That’s more like it.” Li Wanji placed his large hand on her leg.

Gu Qingning trembled slightly. “Can you lend me 50 million more?”

“My money doesn’t come from thin air. You have to give me something in return.” Li Wanji moved his hand from her thigh to her waist.

“What do you want?” Gu Qingning already knew what he wanted, yet she still asked.

“What do you think, Miss Gu? Three years ago, I was crippled right here by your man, and you stood right there watching coldly. Remember?” Li Wanji pointed to an open space nearby.

“I remember,” Gu Qingning said.

“After Chen Fan killed my father, what did you two do?” Li Wanji asked.

“Got a room.” Gu Qingning replied truthfully.

“Which room number?” he asked.

“1314.” Gu Qingning’s heart sank. Looks like there was no escaping tonight.

“Good. Let’s go to 1314.” Li Wanji pulled her up and wrapped his arm around her.

He called a staff member and booked the room. They took the elevator to the 13th floor and entered the room.

“This bed, right? How many times did you roll around on it with Chen Fan?” Li Wanji asked with a wicked smile.

“Three times.” Gu Qingning answered blankly.

“Haha, so clear in your memory. You must really love Chen Fan. Now, go take a shower. Please me tonight, and this 50 million is yours.” He flashed a card in front of her.

A faint light returned to Gu Qingning’s eyes.

“Go on.” Li Wanji patted her peach-shaped bottom.

Gu Qingning still didn’t move.

“This 50 million is enough for your startup. Be good, and I don’t mind giving you a slice of the cake. I can help you revive Qingcheng International,” he tempted when he saw she wasn’t responding.

“Really?” Gu Qingning looked up, eyes lighting up.

“I said, please me tonight first.” Li Wanji lay back on the bed and started playing on his phone.

Gu Qingning hesitated for a few minutes before walking slowly to the bathroom.

Watching her alluring back, Li Wanji licked his lips greedily.

“No wonder these Child of Destiny women are top-tier. Bai Ya’s pear-shaped body, Gu Qingning’s peachy ass…” Thinking about the system task made his head ache. He had already humiliated her once before. Now, after taking her down again, he’d slowly conquer her heart and make her repent. Even if she didn’t, he could just forgo the reward. He already had enough resources to break through to the Golden Core Realm, so he wasn’t afraid of Chen Fan’s return in eight years.

The sound of running water from the bathroom relaxed him. He didn’t use his spiritual sense to peek. He would enjoy it slowly once she came out. Tonight, there was plenty of time to play.

About half an hour later, Gu Qingning emerged wrapped in a white bath towel.

“Come here,” Li Wanji said, completely captivated by her beauty.

She didn’t move.

“I said come here!” he shouted angrily, sending a burst of true Qi that pushed her forward from behind.

“Ah!” Gu Qingning screamed and was thrown uncontrollably onto the bed, right into his arms.

Li Wanji tore off her towel, circulated his true Qi to dry her hair and body.

“Three years ago, I accidentally touched your leg and ended up with my family destroyed. Tonight, I want to see what treasure lies in this body of yours that made Chen Fan cherish it so much!”

…

[Ding!]

The next day!

When Li Wanji woke up, he heard sobbing next to him. He turned and saw Gu Qingning crying.

“Why are you crying? We’ll be doing this often from now on. I have to say, your body is amazing. No wonder Chen Fan was obsessed with you,” Li Wanji said smugly.

“You bastard, I’ll kill you!” Gu Qingning grabbed a cup from the nightstand and threw it at his head.

“Haha, you still have energy after being ravaged all night? Then let’s go again!” Li Wanji grabbed her fair arm, took the cup from her, returned it to the nightstand, and pulled her into another round.

It wasn’t until noon that Li Wanji finally let her go.

“Money. Give me the money,” she murmured before falling asleep, still remembering to ask for it.

“Here.” Li Wanji tossed her the bank card.

She clutched it tightly in her arms and finally drifted into deep sleep. After not sleeping all night and being tormented all morning, she was utterly exhausted.

Li Wanji flew out of the window and quickly returned to the villa, only to find a group of people blocking the entrance.
