They brought him to an alleyway because that was the best place to teach him a lesson.
When they were about to reach their destination, Ling Tian took advantage of their carelessness and launched strikes at Kai and Hao.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
He showed no mercy and attacked them brutally.
Since his strikes were powerful and aimed at their fatal areas, both Kai and Hao fainted in no time.
Lu Yichen, Dong, and Shang turned around when their screams of agony reached their ears.
"You! You!" Lu Yichen was enraged because Ling Tian attacked them out of the blue.
"You what? You expect me to wait until you are ready to fight me? We are not in the ring. There is no rule in street fighting." Ling Tian didn't care about fairness because they were about to gang up on him.
Lu Yichen gritted his teeth before finally shouting. "Beat him to death!"
His lackeys listened to his order and rushed toward Ling Tian.
Even though it was two versus one, Ling Tian still had the upper hand in the fight. Every time they launched an attack, he could block or dodge it.
But the same thing didn't happen to them. Ling Tian's strikes were too fast for them, so they always failed to protect themselves.
"Ugh…" Blood splashed out of Dong's mouth as his body was sent flying into the air.
After attacking Dong, Ling Tian rushed to Shang. He punched and kicked Shang precisely and swiftly.
There was no hesitation or pity in his strikes because mercy could become a boomerang in a fight.
As Ling Tian was beating his lackeys, Lu Yichen involuntarily stepped back.
He thought they could finally get revenge on him, but he was wrong because the course of the fight was in Ling Tian's hands.
'I can't let him win! I must do something.'
He turned his head left and right, looking for something he could use as a tool.
The moment his gaze fell on a metal pipe, his lips curled up into a grin.
'Heaven is helping me!'
He grabbed it and rushed toward Ling Tian.
Ling Tian was focused on Shang, so it was a good opportunity to launch a surprise attack.
Since he was using a metal pipe, one successful hit to the head would be enough to turn the tables, so his grin grew wider as he swung his weapon at Ling Tian from behind.
But he underestimated Ling Tian too much.
Even though he didn't shout, his footsteps were not silent, so Ling Tian noticed him right away.
Bang!
After dodging the strike, Ling Tian punched Lu Yichen's stomach hard.
"Ugh…" Lu Yichen coughed up blood before falling to his knees.
'It hurts!'
The pain was so strong that he felt like he was hit by a motorcycle, not a human being.
"Does it hurt?" Ling Tian was delighted when he saw his pained expression. "Don't worry. I will end your suffering now."
He raised his right leg and kicked Lu Yichen's head hard, causing him to faint instantly.
"It's your turn now." Ling Tian approached Dong and Shang slowly.
A moment later, screams of agony filled the air.
"This is the price for your actions." Ling Tian stared at them briefly before finally going home.
----
"I feel so refreshed!" Ling Tian walked out of the bathroom happily.
Just as he was about to put on his clothes, a message notification sounded from his phone.
'It's from Yueyan.'
He opened it right away.
[I'm already near your place.]
His lips curled up into a smile.
[I'm waiting for you.]
He put his phone back on the table and headed to the wardrobe.
Once he got dressed, he headed to the balcony and sat on a chair. Three minutes later, he saw Shen Yueyan parking her motorcycle in the parking lot.
'It's her!'
He rose to his feet and rested his hands on the railing.
The moment Shen Yueyan caught sight of him, she smiled softly and gave him a sign to wait inside because she would be there soon.
Even though she only pointed her right index finger toward his place, Ling Tian understood the meaning behind it. For this reason, he got into his studio and stood behind the door.
A moment later, the sound of the doorbell echoed in his studio.
"I've been waiting for you, Yueyan." He opened the door and welcomed her.
"Did you wait long?" she asked.
"No," he replied. "What's in the plastic bag?"
"Snacks. We can eat them while watching a movie together." She stopped by a convenience store on her way to his place.
"Good idea!" he stated.
The duo started preparing dinner immediately because it was already 05:10 pm.
Happy laughter and giggles filled the air as they cooked together. Once they were done, they rested in the living area and watched a movie.
At 07:00 pm, they had dinner together.
Just like this morning, their dinner was filled with warmth and happiness.
Their food even tasted better because the joy of being together made everything more delicious.
"I'm full!" Ling Tian said.
"Me too." She put her glass back on the table.
"Yueyan, come here." He tapped his thighs.
Shen Yueyan was startled by his request.
But even so, she still did what she was told.
Once she was on his lap, Ling Tian held her right hand and said, "Tomorrow is a holiday. How about we go to a nice place together?"
Instead of answering his question immediately, she asked playfully, "Are you asking me on a date right now?"
"Yes," he replied. "You asked me out last time, so it's my turn now."
"No, I wasn't!" she didn't admit it. "I was just cheering you up that time. It was not like what you said."
"Hehe." He chuckled softly. "So, what is your answer?"
She leaned her body against his chest and replied, "Sure."
She also loved spending time with him, so she agreed right away.
"Great!" he smiled happily.
When Shen Yueyan was about to say something, her gaze accidentally landed on his neck.
Maybe because she was on his lap or perhaps because a special feeling had blossomed in her heart.
At that moment, a desire to kiss it suddenly arose within her.
'What's wrong with me?'
The longer she stared at his neck, the bigger her desire became.
Her heart even beat faster as if she were gazing at something too alluring to resist.
'We had kissed before. I'm sure he won't mind it.'
Her desire was too strong, so she could not resist it.
When she pressed her lips against his neck, Ling Tian's body tensed and his eyes widened in shock.
'Kissing me out of the blue… what a naughty lady!'
Just as he was about to tease her, she showered him with gentle kisses.
Actually, Shen Yueyan hadn't planned for this at all.
She had only intended to kiss him once, but the moment her lips came into contact with his neck, she could not stop herself, as if she were under the influence of magic.
As Shen Yueyan planted countless kisses on his neck, the flames of lust appeared within him.
He was a healthy young man, so his body naturally reacted to the kisses, especially when they came from a gorgeous woman like her.
For this reason, he grabbed her slender waist and turned her to face him.
Shen Yueyan was startled by his sudden actions, but she said nothing and only looked at him with her lustful eyes.
The moment he saw her fascinating face, the lust within him grew drastically because at that moment, she looked like the goddess of seduction.
'Yueyan…'
He raised his right hand and brought it to her face.
At first, he only cupped her pretty face, but everything changed when his gaze fell on her pink lips.
His body was suddenly out of control, and his right thumb moved on its own, brushing her delicate lips and feeling their softness.
The longer he felt her tender lips, the hornier he became.
His breathing even became shorter and heavier as if he had completely fallen under her spell.
'Her lips are so seductive.'
After enjoying the softness of her seductive lips, Ling Tian removed his hand from her face and brought his face closer to hers.
Seeing him close the distance, Shen Yueyan copied his movement without hesitation because she wanted him just as much as he wanted her.
In less than five seconds, their lips finally met.
Even though what they did was the same as when they were at the treehouse, the feeling was completely different.
If they previously felt happiness and love, all they felt now was uncontrollable lust.
They even felt that pressing their lips together was no longer enough because their bodies craved more than just a normal kiss, something that could truly satisfy the burning lust within them.
For this reason, they broke the kiss, but kept their faces close.
*One second… two seconds… three seconds…
In the fourth second, the lust within them exploded like a volcano, causing them to lose control of themselves.
'Tian…'
'Yueyan…'
They opened their mouths and closed the distance once more.
This time, their kiss was nothing like before.
It was wild, intense, and controlled by the lust within them.
