Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife

Chapter 505 Only A Monster (1)

Xiao Rufeng didn't like how Yan Xiuchen demeaned himself.

What made him think he didn't deserve to be loved? Just because his face was scarred, it didn't mean that he didn't deserve to be happy like the rest. She wouldn't hear any of such nonsense, especially from him.

Didn't he know how amazing a person he was? Over the span of eleven days working as his personal assistant, Xiao Rufeng witnessed herself how dedicated he was to his work and how responsible and sympathetic he was as a business owner.

At one occasion, someone brought an issue about the union of employees in one of the subsidiary companies he recently acquired, asking for a humane and fair working time. As the new owner, they hoped that Yan Xiuchen would consider hearing their demands for a healthy working environment at their company.

Many companies these days only gave their employees a day off in a week and were required to exert more than eight hours at work, leaving them either exhausted or having less time to spend with their families and to themselves.

Xiao Rufeng was curious to see how Yan Xiuchen would handle it, as not many businessmen would allow such a change that could totally tip the balance at the workplace. To her surprise, Yan Xiuchen easily agreed to the request of the employees, with very few conditions on his part.

Not only had he given them fair hours of working, but he also asked his team to review and revise the employees' compensation and benefits. If he was anything like any of those other greedy, selfish businessmen, Yan Xiuchen would have fired all of them on the spot and moved to the next issue, but he didn't.

So she really didn't get why he thought that he was a monster that cannot be loved and appreciated by anyone. Didn't he know that he was more than the scarred face man everyone knew? In fact, he was way better than other businessmen she had encountered in the past.

Actually, she shouldn't have been surprised that he had confessed his feelings for her. For the past week and a half, they were practically together all the time and would only part ways when it was time for them to retire for the night. Add to the fact that he claimed that she was the only woman who was properly civil with him, of course Yan Xiuchen had fallen in love with her.

Xiao Rufeng didn't know what made her kiss the scarred man in front of her, but she didn't regret it at all. Perhaps she had been longing to do this for some time now, and the urge to kiss him after hearing his confession earlier had gotten the best of her.

She felt Yan Xiuchen stiffening against her, and she briefly wondered if he would reject her too. Fear crushed through her heart. Fear that he might have regretted what he had said, and he truly didn't mean what he had just said.

There was no doubt that he was a man with issues, and yet, he was really wonderful to her. Yan Xiuchen appreciated her, believed in her as if she was the smartest and funniest woman he'd ever met. He patiently listened to everything she said and never judged her for her shortcomings.

It wasn't like she couldn't fall in love with him. Heck, Xiao Rufeng was sure as hell that if it wasn't for the fact that she would face another painful rejection, she could see herself falling for him.

Meanwhile, Yan Xiuchen was having a hard time grasping what was happening. One moment, he was thinking that Xiao Rufeng was going to turn him away, then the next thing he knew she was kissing him with her arms sliding over the back of his neck, pushing herself closer to him.

He felt like his mind short-circuited for a moment as he stared at her in shock. This was his first kiss, and he had no idea what to do as he had never kissed anyone before. What if he made a mistake? What if he disappointed her?

However, even before Yan Xiuchen could come up with an answer to his own question, he felt Xiao Rufeng's tongue touching and licking the tight seam of his mouth and he could swear it was enough for this woman to bring him down to his knees and worship the path she had walked on.

He groaned, held her by her shoulder and returned her kiss with equal fervor. Yan Xiuchen never thought he would be able to experience something like this. Even when he was younger, he ached for someone to touch him as passionately as Xiao Rufeng was touching him right now.

His hand reached for her, cupping her cheek as he allowed her to lead their kiss. He was forced to lean down, so she wouldn't strain her neck too much because of the obvious difference in their heights.

He slanted his mouth over hers and sucked gently on her lower lips, earning a delicious moan from her. Xiao Rufeng parted her mouth and allowed him to stroke his tongue inside. Her lips were soft, and she tasted so sweet that Yan Xiuchen couldn't think of anything that could be sweeter and more addictive than her.

They were too engrossed in each other that they failed to notice another presence. Elder Meng cleared his throat and immediately, Yan Xiuchen and Xiao Rufeng stepped back from each other, with their eyes still in daze.

Yan Xiuchen stared at the woman in front of him and saw how Xiao Rufeng's cheeks were tainted with a deep blush and her lips a little plump, thoroughly kissed by him.

"I-I should get going. Good night, Mr. Yan, Elder Meng." He heard her say, before seeing her leave.

Yan Xiuchen then turned to Elder Meng, who was looking at them with amusement, and raised a hand.

"Not one word." He warned him.

"What? I wasn't planning to say anything." The older man laughed, before leaving Yan Xiuchen on his own.
