"Is Master Mu really frigid like the rumors say?"

The few words at the end were too soft to be heard!

Xi Xiaye caught up with the conversation and understood what Su Nan meant. Her pretty little face turned red as she glanced over at the man.

He was pouring some tea with his head lowered. She only saw the handsome side profile of his, which gave her a sense of tranquility. She was suddenly reminded that she had once called him a quiet beautiful man. It was a perfect description of him right now.

However, she had no idea how to answer Su Nan's question since she was not really sure because...

"So, is he?" Su Nan asked again.

Xi Xiaye averted her gaze away from him unnaturally and said to Su Nan, "Of course not! Go rest earlier. I'm hanging up."

She hung up on the call and left her phone aside before unconsciously taking another glance at him oddly.

He noticed an odd gaze focused on him, so he sipped some tea and turned over. She was staring right at him with her pink lips pursed as if she wanted to say something but was hesitant.

She had just come out of the shower and only had a loose pastel-colored sleeping robe on. Her neckline was slightly open, revealing her collarbones and her fair skin hiding under her long, black hair. They seemed to glisten under the dim lights, and he could smell the refreshing fragrance from her, fueling the beast inside his blood.

He took a deep breath before putting his arm over her shoulder while he asked quietly, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Her long eyelashes twitched a little. She leaned onto his chest as her eyes met his gaze. Thinking about it, she raised her eyebrows and smiled. "I just suddenly thought about how you're quite good-looking."

It was a rare compliment from her. Seeing her warm smile softened his heart, and he grabbed onto her cold hand with his long fingers.

"Don't say something like this to other men..."

He lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead. Before she could react, he captured her pink lips as well.

She could not control herself as she grabbed his collar in front of his chest...

He was going strong on her, not giving her any opening at all. His hand snaking around her waist was starting to get naughty as he started exploring her waist through her long hair.

His refreshing scent was everywhere. In just a brief, intimate moment, the temperature around rose. She was put down onto the sofa without even being aware of it.

She then realized their sleeping robes were ruffled. His robe sash was in her hand. As for her, her chest was exposed and since she was just done with her shower, inside was...

With her last ounce of willpower, she grabbed onto her falling robe, but the moment her fingertips reached the fabric, his large hand locked down her wrist. He looked at her with sparks in his eyes, his raspy voice sounding magnetic. "Missus, time to fulfill our obligations of husband and wife!"

He hugged her tightly as if he wanted to merge her into him. His sparkling eyes did not look away from her at all.

She turned her head away, embarrassed. Suddenly, Su Nan's words echoed in her mind and she could not help but mumble, "Aren't you frigid?"

Frigid?

Mu Yuchen could not wait but to prove her wrong right there and then!

The temperature was still on the rise when she noticed his grip tightened. He was coming onto her ferociously and she could feel a sense of danger when she looked into his eyes.

"The newspapers said so, and also... You're not really... very intimate... with me." Her voice was so quiet that it was barely audible while her pretty little face was bright red.

"Frigid... I see... Good..." He stared at her and an odd smile appeared on his handsome face. He said quietly, "Do you want to find out now?"

Before waiting for her to react, he lifted her up and went into the bedroom.

The curtains rolled down and two black figures flew out from inside the semi-transparent veil. They fell onto the ground, and soon there was the sound of her voice complaining, "Gentler—"

He laughed quietly before he stopped for a bit and looked at her lying down under him. "No woman would ask that."

A smile appeared across his handsome face again. It was very different than usual. In fact, it was much more seductive!

...

The truth was that even though he acted coldly towards people, he could become a wild beast in bed, so wild like a general that had never lost before.

After three rounds, Xi Xiaye could not stand it anymore. Amidst the panting, he said, "Can those muscular men measure up to me? I told you you'd regret what you said."

Her breathing was getting uneven as she stared at him. He was acting cheeky, so she talked back stubbornly, "How do you know they can't? Mu Yuchen, in your older days..."

Before she could finish, the man started his fourth round of attack. He was determined to make her admit defeat!

At that brief moment, Xi Xiaye realized her fault. She should have listened to Su Nan's reminder— never provoke a man who was in heat; the woman would be at the short end of the stick.

Unfortunately, she experienced it firsthand, so...

The night still had a long way to go. The cold wind breezed through the window gap and it was very dark inside the bedroom. The only source of light was from the lamp beside the large window. In the meantime, an intimate game was happening behind the curtain veils. There were occasionally short moans in the quiet darkness, and it only stopped briefly after midnight...
